Chapter 115: The Journey to Songshan (1)
Li You, Ouyang Yan and Long Tongue wore hats on their heads, hid in the crowd, and after watching Wei Miaoer and the others board the passenger boat, they turned around and walked out in the direction of the exit of the dock.
The wharf was crowded with people seeing them off. They looked forward to it, with eagerness, anticipation and reluctance.
However, in the end, they were also unable to meet Li You.
Li You has served in Shengtang County for more than three years. During this period, the population of Shengtang County grew from more than 40,000 to nearly 90,000, there were no prisoners in prison, no barren land in the fields, and no shops in the market.
It is the people who are best deceived and the people who are the most difficult to deceive.
Because the taste of life is best known only to these people.
Li You walked to the exit of the dock, turned his head to look at the many people on the dock, and showed a smile of relief.
In this troubled world, all I can do is benefit the people of this side. In today's send-off, Li You is sure that he has done this, so he has a clear conscience.
However, Li You could not show up again no matter what.
Because so many people are thinking about him.
Ling Fox, the big demon Moxi, the three immortals with small bellies and chicken intestines, anyone who finds his traces will cause a lot of trouble. And what Li You can't delay the most is time.
The sooner you resolve the crisis of the long tongue, the sooner you can rush to Yangzhou.
No matter how smart Wei Miaoer is, she will never be able to replace Li You.
Ouyang Jian looked at Li You, and there was a hint of admiration in his eyes. "Let's go!" He reminded Li You and turned around and walked towards Lingang Lane.
"Okay."
Li You and Long Tongue followed closely behind Ouyang Jian.
After a while, the three of them got into the prepared carriage and headed straight for the northwest of Shengtang County.
Songshan Liantian Peak is the destination of the three.
………
Zhongyue Songshan, "Bianluo Liangjing, Jinnei Famous Mountain", is located in the northwest of Henan Province, west of the ancient capital of Luoyang, south of Yingshui, north of the Yellow River. There are seventy-two peaks in the mountain, and there are countless valleys, holes, pools, and waterfalls, and it is the source of Buddhism and Taoism.
Liantian Peak is the highest peak among the seventy-two peaks of Songshan Mountain, the mountain is precipitous, standing like an axe, almost no one can climb to the top. It is reasonable for the Heavenly Court to decide the matter here.
Li You sat in the carriage and looked at the long tongue sitting opposite, with a panicked face. "Long tongue, everything has me. I promised Miss Miao'er that if you took good care of you, you would naturally not allow anyone else to hurt you. ”
"Hmm."
Long Tongue nodded vigorously.
"Take a break."
"Hmm."
Because he had to be separated from Wei Miao'er and had to go to Heaven to accept the verdict, Long Tongue should not have slept well last night, but now under the bumps of the carriage, he gradually fell asleep.
Li You didn't feel the slightest sleep.
It has been more than a year since I left the Gaotao tomb. For more than a year, it has been really tortuous and thrilling, and looking back at this moment, Li You even doubts how he carried it.
However, it is precisely because of these experiences that Li You himself is not only reborn, but even the measuring ruler in his hand has undergone a fundamental transformation.
Thinking of measuring the heavenly ruler, Li You couldn't help but think of the words of Changji Immortal. So, he summoned the measuring ruler to his eyes and looked at it carefully.
Since being eroded by the venom of the long tongue, the measuring ruler has finally revealed the true face of Lushan. Suspended in front of Li You's eyes was a short sword with a transparent body and golden threads circling throughout.
Li You carefully observed the measuring ruler.
Compared to a few months ago, the length of the measuring scale has not changed, but the dots of light inside have grown to the size of soybeans. Moreover, this point of light is no longer as restless as before, but slowly moves within the measuring scale like a feather suspended in the air. Even if Li You urged the measuring ruler to move up and down, left and right, and even rotate in place, this point of light still maintained its own pace, like an old man strolling leisurely.
Li You suddenly became curious. He concentrated all his thoughts on the measuring ruler and tried to communicate with it, the light points in the measuring ruler suddenly accelerated their moving speed, but it was only a matter of moments, and then they returned to their original pace, no matter how hard Li You tried, there was no reaction.
However, this has already made Li You feel pleasantly surprised.
Could it be that this point of light is pregnant with something?
Li You stared closely at the point of light in the measuring ruler. I feel that this point of light is warm, round, and quite textured, although I can't see what is inside, but like an egg waiting to hatch, it is full of anticipation and reverie.
Could it be that inside this point of light, is it the monster in the mouth of Changji Immortal?
Li You couldn't help but feel a little expectant and apprehensive.
If this point of light breaks out of the cocoon and becomes a butterfly, will it be able to communicate with itself?
Thinking of Ouyang Jian's Qingfeng Sword, the more Li You thought about it, the more excited he became, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was infinitely useful, and he couldn't help laughing.
"Huh?"
The long tongue was awakened by Li You's laughter, and looked at Li You suspiciously. Li Youchong shrugged his shoulders with his long tongue and put the measuring ruler back.
Excuse me?
With Li You's cheek, how could he feel embarrassed.
"Long tongue, hungry?"
"Hmm."
Long Tongue nodded.
Because they were busy moving and tidying up, the family just ate something hastily, and now it's normal to be hungry.
Li You moved to the front of the seat and opened the curtain in front of the carriage. "Ambassador Ouyang, I and Long Tongue are hungry. Can we find a place to eat? ”
Since he was about to leave yesterday, Li You began to call Ouyang Jian like this. After all, it was because of Ouyang Jian that Li You and Long Tongue had to leave everyone behind and rush to Songshan. Although Li You also knew that Ouyang Jian was duty, and he also wanted to find out what Heavenly Court was all about, there should be sarcasm.
No matter what kind of loss you eat, you will never eat the loss on your lips.
Ouyang Jian was too lazy to argue with Li You. "There's a small town in the front room, I'll tell you when I get there."
"Hurry up, I'm starving to death, it's okay, if the long tongue starves to death, you won't be able to pay the errand."
Ouyang Jian frowned and glared back at Li You. Li You naturally wouldn't give him such a chance, and he had already retracted into the carriage.
………
Ouyang Jian grabbed the reins and parked the carriage in front of a restaurant. The guy at the door saw it and immediately greeted him.
Ouyang Jian took out five copper coins from his arms. "Feed the horses, and when we have eaten, we will continue on our journey."
"Thank you, uncle, little one understands."
The guy nodded at Ouyang Jian in thanks.
Li You and Long Tongue got out of the carriage.
Li You glanced at the restaurant in front of him, and saw that although it was only one floor, the roof was inlaid with glazed tiles, the doors and windows were carved with auspicious patterns, and there were four large lanterns hanging at the door.
"Shouxian Ju?" Li You looked at the signboard of this restaurant, and seemed to remember that he had heard people talk about this restaurant. "You've already entered Shouzhou, your horse is really amazing."
"Let's go."
Ouyang Jian walked in front.
"The name of Shouxian Ju is no less than that of Forget the Building, and I and Long Tongue are so hungry that we are close to our hearts..."
"What do you want to say?"
Ouyang Jian stopped and turned to stare at Li You.
"For you, this trip should be tolerance. So, you'll have to pay for the meal. ”
"Don't worry."
Ouyang Jian looked disdainful, turned around and walked into the restaurant.
"Holy!" Li You immediately lost his temper. "I've eaten me for more than a year, and I haven't seen you take out a copper coin, and now you're a rich man. Long tongue, you have to let go of it later, you know? ”
"Oh."
The long tongue frowned, but nodded in agreement.
The long tongue is honest and honest, but since he left Jishitang, he has been obedient to Li Youyan, and it seems that Wei Miaoer has specially explained.
If you follow Li You, you will generally not suffer.
When the guys in the store saw Li You and the others, they immediately greeted them. "Three, please inside."
"Hmm."
The three of them were led by the guy to a seat near the center.
Li You didn't wait for the two, and sat down with a big grin. "Man, we're all starving. Pick up your favorite meals, and give me ten or eight things, uncles are not short of money! ”
The guy saw that Li You didn't look like he was slipping, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
Ouyang Jian didn't bother to pay attention to Li You, but he also knew that everyone was hungry. "Man, four meats, four vegetarian soups, and six more Shouxian cakes, the sooner the better!"
Seeing that Ouyang Jian knew the signature Shouxian cake in the store, the guy estimated that he was a frequent customer in the store, so he hurriedly nodded at Ouyang Jian. "The little one understands, please wait!"
"Oh, regulars."
Li You was still in shape, and without waiting for Ouyang Jian to sit down, he immediately stood up and sat in his place.
Ouyang Jian frowned, but in the end he still chose to ignore it, and walked to the seat next to Long Tongue and sat down.
Li You sat on the seat he had just changed, and immediately stood up again after sitting for a while. "No, it's not comfortable. Long tongue, let's change it again. ”
"Oh."
The long tongue stood up obediently.
Li You moved to the seat with the long tongue again, and finally stopped.
"Hey, I said Ambassador Ouyang, since you are a frequent visitor, you can introduce us to it." Li You said this, moved to Ouyang Jian's side, rested his elbows on the table, and leaned his head against Ouyang Jian.
Ouyang Jian was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Li Youchong blinking at him, he immediately leaned over.
"From the time we came in, there were three tables of people who have been staring at us. Moreover, when I looked at them, they deliberately avoided them, and it seemed that we were in company. You are lonely, the young lady warms you with a movie
