We are a group of five people, from the village to take the car, all the way north to the city, in the early nineties, the traffic is not developed, from the village to the city to take the car about more than an hour, on the way also need to transfer, take the kind of 33-seater bus.

It is quite good to be able to sit in the car, stop and go along the way, the driver will pick up a lot of people, can not sit down, then stand, walked a few kilometers away, the car has been stuffed full, the weather is warmer, there are many people, the car is very stuffy, and there is a faint smell of feet and foxes, we are a few suddenly a little unbearable.

Such a scene makes me miss the treatment of Shen Jianguo's special car.

For more than an hour, it was even more difficult for me to stay in the wolf demon's hole, and as soon as I got out of the car, I couldn't care about my image anymore, and I threw up on the railing on the side.

I could see that the senior brother was also a little uncomfortable, and I don't know if he was stubborn or stunned, and the filth poured into his mouth, or he swallowed it raw.

When Master saw us like this, he instructed my sister to buy me a bottle of water and let us drink it so that we could feel better.

The little fox, who had never been to the city before, poked his head out of his backpack and looked at the bustling world with curiosity.

After we had rested at the station, we continued north.

Wuxing, the origin has a long history, can be traced back to the Qin Dynasty, the Qin period is called Hucheng County, is the hometown of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, when Xiang Wang raised troops in Wuzhong but gathered troops in Hucheng County, the army is like a broken bamboo, resulting in the destruction of the Qin State, but after all, because of the defeat of the enemy Liu Bang, self-slaughter in Wujiang, dying words: faceless to see Jiangdong fathers, very strong and heroic. The Later Han Dynasty changed its name to Wucheng, and it was not until the Three Kingdoms that it was officially named Wuxing.

It is also known as the "land of fish and rice, the house of silk, and the state of culture", Taihu Lake, one of the five major freshwater lakes in the north, Mogan Mountain, a summer resort in the west, and the place where the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal flows, which can be described as a treasure land of feng shui. Not to mention the rest of the celebrities in history, only the great calligrapher Zhao Mengfu of the Song Dynasty is like thunder, and the world's best lake pen is also produced here.

From south to north, we almost crossed the entire city, and walked more than ten miles, stopping and stopping for I don't know how many times we rested, before we arrived at the destination of this trip - Taihu Lake.

I heard from Master that he was invited to visit an old friend, whose house is near Xiaomeikou on the south bank of Taihu Lake.

The so-called practice is to walk instead of car, stop all the way, see all the rivers and mountains, embrace nature, and penetrate the world, so as to raise the state of mind to a higher level, so there are many ascetics and down-and-out Taoists, all the way to the fate, sleeping in the open, walking through many provinces, aimlessly, to meet each other, but through this trip to make their own cultivation continue to rise.

As the saying goes, refining the heart in red dust and joining the WTO is an important way to sharpen the Tao.

Standing on the edge of the lake, looking at the sunset, the sky is crimson, like the sea as the boundless lake surface sparkling, countless fishing boats reflect the return of the sunset, the figure on the boat is sufficient, leisurely, the lake breeze blows, with a little sunset warmth, particularly comfortable. A large area of reeds on the shore of the lake flutters in the wind, like graceful dancing girls, egrets in the sky, and flocks of cormorants near the shore, which is a beautiful scenery.

Master took us along the shore of the lake for a while, and saw dozens of two- or three-story pleasure boats docked on the shore in front of us, these pleasure boats were tied to the shore by a thick iron chain, and all the boats had hotel signboards hanging on the bows, which was very eye-catching, very characteristic of Taihu Lake fishermen, and we could enjoy the beautiful scenery of Taihu Lake while eating.

Master led us to a certain ornately decorated pleasure boat in the middle, turned around and said, "It's not getting early, let's eat something here first." ”

With that, Master swaggered into the hotel, and when I looked inside, I was immediately stunned, it was simply overcrowded! In the small hall on the first floor, there are ten round tables, each full of people, and many people wandering among them, looking for an empty seat that can accommodate one person.

The cabin decoration is not luxurious, but fresh and elegant, mostly decorated with calligraphy and painting, regardless of the position or the choice of calligraphy and painting are just right, revealing a strong atmosphere of elegance, which shows the high taste of its owner.

When Master entered the door, a waiter immediately came up to greet him: "How many guests are there, it is full today, and we will have to wait for a while." ”

Master walked around and went straight up to the second floor, the staircase was quite wide enough to accommodate three people side by side, made of solid wood, painted with burgundy paint, as if it had just been brushed, spotless.

He looked left and right, pointed to one of the tables with only three people, and said, "It's a waste of three of them at one table, we can share a table with them." ”

The waiter hesitated and said, "It's not good......

Master's face changed, and he said, "If you don't have a business, it's really not interesting, let's go, let's change it." ”

After that, the master took us out, and the waiter was suddenly anxious, although they had a large flow of passengers, but it was also a small business, and the boats along the coast were competing with each other, so he naturally did not want to let the guests go to other boats, so he immediately grabbed the master and said, "Don't worry, I'll ask, right away." ”

The Master looked left and right with great interest.

Most of the guests who eat on a boat come to taste the freshness of Taihu Lake nearby, and there are all kinds of people, but the costume of the master and grandfather is quite strange, but it has attracted the attention of many people.

The waiter came running over not long after, and said with a smile to the master that the table had agreed to share the table, so let's go over.

So, the master swaggered over, moved a stool and sat down, as steady as Mount Tai.

When the three people at the table saw us seated, they all looked up at us.

We look at them equally unceremoniously.

One of the three is a man about forty years old, who looks serious and majestic, a bit like actor Zhang Tielin, so I was more impressed, next to him was a girl of the same age as me, Qiu Niang's eyebrows, Danfeng eyes, goldfish mouth, although it is a baby face, but the eyebrows are upturned, the chin is pointed, and there is a sense of brutality, and it is not easy to bully at first glance. The other was a man of about fifty years of age, with a horse-faced beard and a small beard, like a fortune teller on the street, but he looked at us with disgruntled eyes, and seemed to mind that we were sitting at the same table with them.

Especially the costumes of the godfather and the master, the three people on the opposite side seemed very concerned, and they kept looking this way.

The master crossed Erlang's legs with a big grin, and while ordering food with the waiter, he kept asking a few people on the other side how the food was, so that they couldn't eat comfortably, and even the man who looked like Zhang Tielin was a little unhappy with us.

Grandpa Godon was a peacemaker, and hurriedly apologized to them for the master, so as not to offend people who should not be offended.

Fortunately, a man like Zhang Tielin has a good temper, and in the face of his godfather's apology, he also expressed his understanding and let us take care of ourselves.

Think about it, there are a lot of people at the table downstairs, and those who can eat six dishes safely for three people at a table must be a person with a head and a face and money, and ordinary people dare not offend. Judging from the looks of several of them alone, they are not good-looking people.

However, what kind of identity do we have, the master and the godfather alone are enough to overwhelm everyone, and the master himself is not very kind in appearance, and his temper is not good, and he does not care about the opinions of the people on the other side.

Sure enough, after the master finished the dish, he began to talk to the three people opposite: "May I ask where are you from?" It doesn't look like a local. ”

When the little girl heard this, she immediately stretched her neck and wanted to go crazy, but she was glared at by a man like Zhang Tielin, and immediately held back her words.

The man who looked like Zhang Tielin put down his chopsticks and said without changing his face: "We came from Hubei to travel." ”

"Oh, what do you think of the food here, I heard that Hubei likes spicy food, and the food in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is generally sweet and sour." Master is a self-acquaintance, and said with a smile.

The man also showed a pleasant expression and said, "It's not bad, it's delicious, and it's more distinctive, so I can't say that I'm not used to it, and it's not that we don't eat spicy." ”

"Where are you going next? I'm fairly familiar with the area and can recommend a few good places. Master said as the kettle reached a cup of tea.

Then he put the kettle on the table, because the range of action was a bit large, and a lot of water droplets splashed at once, and landed on the clothes of the three people opposite.

Master hurriedly apologized and brought a tissue to wipe them down.

I saw that the little girl was so angry that her ears were red, and she wanted to lift the table directly, but because of the man's coercion, she didn't dare to be presumptuous, but the two adults became more and more calm, and even the bearded man began to smile.

After a brief scrub, the man continued, "Then can this old brother recommend a few places, we are planning to go into the city for a visit." ”

The master took a sip of tea, frowned slightly, shook his head and said, "This tea is not worth a long time, it has a musty smell, it is really not authentic." ”

After complaining, he looked at the man and said: "Do you want to say that Lake City is worth visiting, an ancient town of Nanxun, look at the century-old Jiangnan style, a Mogan Mountain, a summer resort, a northern canyon in northern Zhejiang, appreciate the landscape of Tianmu Mountain, and the big bamboo sea, thousands of bamboo seas are full of greenery." There is also the South Taihu Lake here, taste the umami of Taihu Lake, but you are already eating. ”

The man clapped his hands and praised: "Thank you brother for recommending, so our group also has a purpose, which is much more convenient." ”

The food was served very quickly, and as we talked, dishes began to come up one after another.

The master pushed the dish forward and said, "You don't have to be polite, you are destined to meet people, let's eat together." ”

The other party hurriedly excused himself and said, "Brother is polite, we have enough of our own dishes." ”

After speaking, the man and the bearded man glanced at each other, and then said, "Thank you for your hospitality, we are full, and we will leave first." ”

"Alas, there are so many dishes, what a waste." Master hurriedly kept it.

However, the other party had made up his mind, turned around and left.

The master shook his head, pulled a few dishes in front of him, and said, "It's a pity to waste it, come on, let's eat." ”

He didn't shy away from it at all, and stuffed the food into his mouth.

However, the other party didn't seem to have eaten much, so there were a lot of leftover dishes, and it seemed to be delicious, and we couldn't resist the temptation and started to move our chopsticks.

After eating a few bites, Grandpa Gan suddenly asked the master, "Old Sun, ...... those people just now?"

I can see the difference between the people on the other side, and they observe far more carefully than me.

Master then raised his eyebrows and said, "It's the same as us, but it's not like a good class." ”
