Chapter 646: Entering the Imperial Capital
The goose feathers and heavy snow are floating in the sky, the towering mountains on both sides of the river are white, the vast earth, the trees are withering, and they are bleak, but they are faint, and you can also see through the shadows of the countless bare trees and trees, and you can see the treacherous winding mountain roads on both sides of the river, there are cars, horses and pedestrians hesitating in the snow, and the direction is the opposite of Yan Liqiang.
Yan Liqiang stood at the bow of the boat, squinting at the river and the scene on both sides of the river, the fluttering snowflakes fell on his shoulders and the hat he wore on his head, and in a short time, he was tired of a layer of white snow......
"Go north to Taihang Mountain, it's difficult!
The sheep intestines are bent, and the wheels are destroyed.
The trees are gloomy, and the north wind is sad.
The bear squatted at me, and the tiger and leopard cried in the middle of the road.
There are few people in the valley, and the snow falls on He Feifei!
Stretch your neck and sigh, and travel far away.
My heart is so depressed that I want to return to the east.
The bridge is deep in water, and the middle road is wandering.
Confused and lost, there is no shelter in the twilight.
The day of travel is far away, and the people and horses are hungry at the same time.
Carry the bag to get paid, and the axe and ice are held as minc.
The poems of the sad Dongshan make me mourn. ”
This situation made Yan Liqiang couldn't help it all of a sudden, and chanted a song of Cao Cao's "Bitter Cold Walk" on the bow of the boat......
"Hahaha, brother is so interested, at this time, you can still recite poems and lyrics in the bow of the ship......" There was a heroic laughter behind him, and then the sound of the crunching bow deck being stepped on under heavy pressure came, Yan Liqiang turned around, and saw a burly man with a beard on his face and a height of about two meters, striding towards him.
"What, Brother An also came out to breathe......" Yan Liqiang smiled and said hello to this big man.
This big man is called An Shidao, is a dart head, two days ago An Shidao took a few dart masters with some goods and Yan Liqiang on the big ship together, the two of them also lived next door to the cabin, on the boat bowed their heads and did not look up, naturally they are familiar, An Shidao is a typical person who walks the rivers and lakes, bold and shrewd and old-fashioned, is one of the few people on this ship who can talk with Yan Liqiang, although Yan Liqiang is dressed in plain clothes, but with An Shidao's vision and experience, it can also be seen that Yan Liqiang has a detached temperament, not an ordinary person, so some deliberately make friends。
Yan Liqiang left Ganzhou to the imperial capital this time, completely alone, without any entourage, just a person, a bag and a sword on the road, in Qiyun County is used to the kind of front and back hugging days, this trip to the imperial capital, one person on the road, for Yan Liqiang, but a lot easier, there is a kind of long-distance travel comfort and relaxation.
Along the way, Yan Liqiang with a different state of mind, and along the way the peddlers and pawns along the way together with the three roads and nine streams, cast the store for the night, sometimes settled in the wild, see the customs along the way, listen to the south and north tones of various places, along the way, the old tree faint crow, the ancient road thin horse looked, the big city town, the market temple fair, the coquettish innkeeper has encountered, the ignorant and fierce road bandits and thieves have also encountered, the mood is different, there are scenery along the way, stay outside, the west wind blows, the slanting sun falls, the sky is beautiful and the north, where is not the city of the world......
Entering the mortal dust and washing the heart, leaving the mud and the lotus blooming, is the true practice!
This along the way of the state of mind experience, although it is only less than two months, but for Yan Liqiang, but better than in the past few years, this state of mind is complete, practice, even if there is no deliberate pursuit, but also slowly rising, people in the fireworks, martial arts practice fireworks are getting less and less, just these days, Yan Liqiang did not touch the bow, but faintly, but faintly, he has already felt that the realm of the seven heavens of his bow is sprouting, there is a tendency to go up......
"Hahaha, it's stuffy in this cabin, although it's windy and snowy outside, it's cool......" An Shidao laughed, and came directly to the bow of the boat, stood with Yan Liqiang, and looked at Yan Liqiang with interest," Brother has just been exported into a chapter, don't have courage, I'm the boss, although I don't understand, but I have seen thousands of people, like brother, you are a talented person, but it is also the first time to see, I see brother, you are not from a big sect, or a wealthy family, and by no means a nameless, I am afraid that it has already been famous, before you told the boat boss that your surname is Gu, it should be the pseudonym of your brother!"
Generally speaking, walking in the rivers and lakes is the first encounter, the most taboo is to inquire about other people's roots, but An Shidao does the opposite, but it is even more frank and bold, Yan Liqiang thinks of the snake in his body, this An Shidao has no bad thoughts in his heart, he naturally knows, listening to An Shidao ask, Yan Liqiang smiled, "Brother An is really an old Jianghu, I don't hide it, I really don't have the surname Gu, but the surname Yan, my real name is Yan Liqiang!"
"Haha, I'll just say it, it turns out that brother, your surname is Yan, your name is ......" Speaking of this, An Shidao suddenly snorted, and stopped instantly, originally An Shidao's face still had a smile, but in an instant, his eyes widened all of a sudden, his mouth grew up, and the whole person looked at Yan Liqiang with a look like seeing an alien, and almost stammered, "Brother...... You...... You are the guardian of Qi Yun, the master of our Han Empire, the young master of the prince's archery, and the strict ...... of solving the difficulties of the Fengyun army with woolen cloth Lord Yan ......"
An Shidao was not pretending, but was really frightened by Yan Liqiang's name, he originally thought that Yan Liqiang should not be a nameless, but where could he have thought that Yan Liqiang is not only not a nameless, it is simply like thunder, if many people in the Han Empire are not very clear about the meaning of this name, then in the past year, with the popularity of wool cloth in the Han Empire and the huge wealth effect brought by wool textiles and the huge impact on various places, not to mention these dart masters who walk the rivers and lakes, even ordinary people, have heard the name of Yan Liqiang, who turned wool into treasure......
"I was lucky enough to earn a little fame, which made Brother An smile......" Yan Liqiang said modestly.
"Oops...... Oops...... "An Shidao was excited, and directly rubbed his hands around Yan Liqiang twice, and finally held Yan Liqiang's hand all of a sudden," Brother, if you call it a thin name, this Han Empire, who dares to say that you have a reputation, brother, you don't know, you wool cloth to come out, the business of the dart bureau in all parts of the Han Empire has increased by several percent, in the past, our bodyguards to keep the largest goods is salt, now in addition to this salt, there is one more wool cloth, one more brother of mine is also a dart game, originally his dart business is not good, all want to close the door to find a way to live again, I didn't expect that your wool cloth came, the business of the dart bureau around the country suddenly increased, my brother is now specially receiving the wool cloth dart of the merchant group around the world, the days can get better and better, in addition to this wool clothNow the four-wheeled carriage of the dart board of the Han Empire is also said to be made out by the brothers, this four-wheeled carriage is good, stable and fast, and there are many things pulled, the dart board of the Han Empire, now it is all dependent on the things that the brothers you invented and drummed out of eating, the last time we ate the darts of a few dart boards, everyone said that brother, you are the living bodhisattva of our dart people, I didn't expect to let me see the real person this time......"
"It's been awarded, Brother An has won the award, you eat this bowl of rice by your own true skills, the ups and downs of the knife broke out of the fire, the little thing I made out of the drum really wants to help Brother An, it's just a coincidence......"
"By the way, brother, you came to the Imperial Capital this time, didn't you have something to do?"
"Well, Your Majesty summoned me, so I came......"
"Brother is so bold!" An Shidao gave a thumbs up directly to Yan Liqiang, and then frowned slightly, "It's just that the land of Gyeonggi is a little chaotic now, don't hide it from your brother, I will send this dart to Huizhou City, after this dart, I am not going to take this dart to Gyeonggi again in the next year, the risk is too great......"
"Oh, yes, I heard that the land of Gyeonggi is now in turmoil because of the catastrophe, and many people are busy fleeing......
"Even if there is a catastrophe, it will be next year, I'm talking about man-made disasters, don't you know, brother, these days, the White Lotus Sect in the land of Gyeonggi has made a lot of trouble, just a few days ago, the Huizhou Assassin and the Admiral of the Imperial Capital City were assassinated by the people of the White Lotus Sect, and they took off their heads and hung them on the city wall......"
"Ah......" Yan Liqiang was slightly taken aback, he was not well-informed on the road during this time, he didn't expect that the land of Gyeonggi would be like this, and the people of the White Lotus Sect would really make trouble......
