Zheng Shi and Zeng Yu found another inn to rest at night, after all, the tofu Huang family was still mourning, and it was inconvenient to stay overnight, and the melon field and Li Xia also had to avoid suspicion, so as not to chew the root of the tongue in the neighborhood, and there were many rights and wrongs in front of the little widow.

Yu Xuandao sent a pair of Go, as long as there is chess to play, Zheng Shi can stay anywhere for ten days and half a month, it doesn't matter if he eats and drinks, Zeng Yu also relaxes, shows his chess skills, and beats Zheng Shi to the third son, which has a mutual victory, Zheng Shi is so depressed, three months ago in Shangrao County Academy, the two chess skills are still comparable, why in just 100 days Zeng Yu chess skills have improved?

Zeng Yu said with a smile: "At that time, I was suffering from gains and losses, and my heart was anxious, how to play chess well, but now my heart is wide, and my chess skills will naturally improve." ”

Zheng Shi said: "Now I am also broad-hearted, and I am also a decent person in the hundreds of families in Yingtanfang, and I am invited to sit in the chief at the wedding and funeral banquets in the countryside, and I don't go to the county and provincial capital, and stay in a small place Yelang is arrogant, it doesn't feel bad, Ha Luha." He was laughing happily, when he suddenly stopped laughing and asked, "But why don't I have a big chess game?" ”

Even no matter how deep the friendship is, you can't reveal your secrets, Zeng Yu said with a smile: "Maybe it's not that my chess skills have grown, but that the three idiot brothers have retired from chess, and the three idiot brothers have become Yingtan gentry, and they are busy with entertainment, and it is possible for them to retire from chess." ”

Zheng Shi smiled: "How can this be reasonable. Staring at Zeng Yu under the lamp, he was silent for a long time.

Zeng Yu was furious by him, and asked, "Why do the three idiot brothers look at their younger brother like this?" ”

Zheng Shi said: "I just suddenly noticed that Jiu Li's chess skills have not only improved greatly, but also his temperament seems to have changed a lot——"

Zeng Yu said quietly: "Oh, yes, the three idiot brothers talk about it, why is the younger brother different?" ”

Zheng Shi said: "In the past, you were more outspoken, cynical, and angry than me, but now you are much more stable, not like a twenty-year-old young man." ”

Zeng Yu sighed: "Three idiot brothers, my brother returned to his hometown at sunset, almost wanted to die, and when he returned home, he was cold-eyed by his brother and sister-in-law, and he had to run away from home with his mother and young sister.

Zheng Shi waved his hand and said, "I can't help you anything, it's better for you to endure hardships and persevere." He said: "As the saying goes, 'The children of the poor are in charge of the house early, and it is reasonable for the nine carps to be more determined than ordinary people after this trouble" and said with a smile: "It's just that I Zheng Shizhi has not grown up in my thirties, and I am still impetuous and willful. ”

Zeng Yu said: "The third idiot brother is too humble, where is the younger brother stable, if he is stable, he will not beat Jiang Yuanrui and Xie Zidan outside Shangrao Anmin's door." ”

Zheng Shi said with a smile: "If you play well, you will be happy, and if you don't make a move in that situation, it won't be you Zeng Jiuli." ”

Zeng Yu also smiled, and gently covered up his secret, because he asked: "Have you ever seen the three idiot brothers invite immortals with their own eyes?" ”

Zheng Shinai said about the past: "When I was a child, I went to a certain house with my father as a guest, and the master invited the god of Zigu, but called me this child to help me, saying that the boy was innocent and sincere, and blindfolded me, so I held the wooden handle and shook it, and then I heard them say that the calligraphy and painting displayed on the basket were extremely effective, but I forgot what was shown. ”

Zeng Yu thought of his own experience and couldn't help but say: "The magical and mysterious things in this world are really difficult to get to the bottom of it." ”

Zheng Shi remembered something, laughed for a while, and said: "I said a joke about helping the people to invite Lu Xian - some scholars gathered in the Luan altar to ask for fame, only to see Luan Shu say: 'Zhao drunkard arrived, and everyone scolded: 'I am waiting to invite Lu Xian, how dare the wild ghost precede, and I will ask the Tianxian Sword to cut you.'" , the Luan pen will not move, and after a while, the book said: Dongbin Taoist people have passed here, what do you ask? , all beings bow solemnly and ask the name of the family? Luan Shu said: "Study more ink." , so all the scholars divided their inkstones, and immediately filled the bowl, kneeling and asking for use. Luan Shu said: 'All living beings drink it, listen to my judgment. The seven or eight scholars drank a bowl of ink, only to see the big book of Luan Bi saying: 'I don't usually read, I eat ink temporarily; I am not Patriarch Lu, I am still a drunkard, and all living beings are angry and ashamed, and they have demolished the Luan altar. ”

Zeng Yu laughed, thinking that Xiao Daogu naturally asked Lu Dongbin to ask for a couplet, but he was stirred up by his soak of urine, which was really funny, and the more he thought about it, the more he laughed-

Zheng Shi asked: "Can Jiu Li's thought of a good couplet from the Dazhen Mansion, so happy?" ”

Zeng Yu said with a smile: "Good poems and good sentences have to be found in dreams, the hour is not early, when I go to find them in my dreams, the heavenly opportunity must not be revealed." ”

The next day, Zheng Shi and Zeng Yu hired a bamboo raft, loaded with wine and food, played along the Luxi River, Danya and clear water, strange peaks and strange stones, lush forests and bamboos, mountain birds and fish, enjoy the beauty of mountains and rivers and the fun of wild dwellings, Zeng Yu is good at painting, looking at the landscape often with a painter's vision, Longhu Mountain can be painted with a lot of scenery, Zeng Yu said: "When I have time, draw a landscape scroll and give it to the three idiot brothers." ”

At dusk, the bamboo raft returned to the river, three miles away from the west of Shangqing Town, Zeng Yu proposed to swim in the stream, so that the bamboo raft did not have to wait, and they returned to the town by themselves after bathing.

The light of the setting sun shines on the sparkling and clear stream, the cliffs on both sides of the bank are reflected, the scene is wonderful, Zheng Shi pointed to the black hole in the Danya in the distance and said: "Can the nine carp know what is in the Danya cave?" ”

Zeng Yuxin said: "The hanging coffin of the ancient Yue people." He said, "Could it be the Immortal Mansion?" ”

Zheng Shi said: "No one can go up, it is rumored that there is a mysterious treasure." ”

Zeng Yu said with a smile: "Along the way, we have seen a lot of these waterfront cliff caves, where there are so many treasures. ”

Bathing ashore, the sunset has fallen on the west peak, the sky is full of red glow, the mountains suddenly become green and blue as soon as the sunset falls, the twilight between the mountains is shrouded quickly, two people look for the way to Shangqing Town, see a small nunnery next to the road, Zheng Shi said: "Thirsty, go to the nunnery to ask for a bowl of water to drink." ”

Zeng Yu chuckled: "Not far ahead is the Great Shangqing Palace, but this small Buddha Nunnery is tenaciously surviving, and it is not easy to be driven away." ”

Zheng Shi said: "Although Longhu Mountain is a blessed land of Taoism, monks and nuns also build temples and nunnery in some places, as long as someone worships it, Zhang Zhenren also forbids him, and the scale of the temple on the side of Jinlongfeng is not small." ”

Two people walked outside the small nunnery, saw that it was a Guanyin nunnery, six or seven nunnery, by the mountains and rivers, but quiet, a nun heard the movement outside the nunnery and walked out, saw that it was two young talents, and suddenly smiled all over their faces, and the voice was full of coquettishness: "Bodhisattva bless, do the two ministers want to come to worship Guanyin, please please hurry." ”

Zeng Yu and Zheng Shi saw the enthusiasm of this half-old nun, they all took two steps back, looked at each other, Zheng Shi didn't say to drink water, and said: "Walk by accidentally, take a look at it, my aunt doesn't need to greet us." ”

The nun then called to the nunnery: "True disciple, there are two talented men who have come to worship the Bodhisattva, you hurry out to greet you." ”

I heard a delicate voice in the nunnery agree, "It's coming, it's coming." ”

Zeng Yu pulled Zheng Shi's sleeve and left, Zheng Shi hurriedly followed, and the nun greeted behind: "Don't go, two ministers, what's the harm in going in and drinking a bowl of tea." ”

Zeng Yu and Zheng Shi walked faster and faster, and walked out of half a mile in one breath before slowing down, Zeng Yu smiled and said: "The nun is fierce, if the three idiot brothers come here alone and are dragged into the nunnery by this nun, I don't know what will happen?" ”

Zheng Shi rolled his eyes and said, "Speaking of yourself, what will happen if you are dragged in by a nun?" ”

Zeng Yu said: "I'm agile, where can this nun drag me away, the three idiot brothers are thin-skinned, and they can't bear to refuse anything, so they are likely to go in, once they go in, what will happen to the battle between heaven and people, I don't know." ”

Zheng Shi smiled, thinking that it was really possible, and said: "That nun is an old in her forties, what other reason does Tianli want to fight, and it is decisive that Tianli has the upper hand." He laughed as he spoke.

Zeng Yu said: "Otherwise, didn't you hear the nun calling the apprentice, that apprentice must be young and beautiful, and there must be a fierce battle between the people of Tianli." ”

Zheng Shi shook his head and smiled, and said, "What kind of monk is this, it looks like a prostitute." ”

The two of them laughed and strode over, but they didn't see a person hidden behind an old elm tree on the side of the road, this person saw Zeng Yu and Zheng Shi coming over from a distance, and quickly flashed behind the tree, and waited for Zeng Yu and the two to go far before they came out, dusting off the grass clippings and soil ash on the silk shirt, and opening the folding fan "brush", and scolding at the back of Zeng Yu and the two who were far away, and scolded: "Two poor and sour, angry and fart." ”

The man staggered all the way to the Guanyin Nunnery where Zeng Yu and the others had been before, called "Aunt Yang", and went straight into the nunnery, the nun came out of the room and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Cao Erlang, who has always come rarely, and threw both my master and apprentice out of the clouds." ”

This person is Cao Gaoyang Cao Liar, and said with a hippie smile: "Senior Aunt Yang, I always think about you, come and come, I have something to discuss with you." ”

While talking, another young nun came out, in her twenties, with a five- or six-point posture, glanced at Cao Lizi, snorted, turned around and went back to the room.

Nun Yang pushed Cao Liar's hand: "I really blame you, why don't you go and coax it." ”

This Yang nun raised this apprentice, she really only raised a fan, stayed with others, and got money, Cao Lizi was one of the customers, but Cao Lizi didn't have time to coax the female nun at this time, pulled Yang Nun to the courtyard of the nunnery, and asked: "Senior Aunt Yang, do you recognize the female dependent of the old man who sells tofu in the town?" ”

Nun Yang said: "I know, Mrs. Huang eats Guanyin Zhai, and she will come to the nunnery to burn incense every time Guanyin is born, that Mrs. Huang is fifty or sixty years old, Cao Erlang, should you - oh, I understand, you want to hook up with the daughter-in-law of the Huang family, yes or no?" ”

Cao Lizi said again and again: "Senior Aunt Yang, since you have dealings with his family, please think of a clever plan for me to hook up with that little widow." ”

Nun Yang waved her hand again and again: "I won't do anything to seduce a good family." ”

Cao Lizi said: "That Luo Xi Shi Jiao really made me angry, and wanted to take her as a concubine, but the old man Huang refused, and he wanted to marry her to a Taoist priest, it really makes sense, if Aunt Yang gives me a clever plan to hook her, I will promise you five taels of silver." ”

Nun Yang squinted her eyes and said: "Huang Laohan has no son, do you want to occupy other people's daughters-in-law and get other people's property, I heard that the tofu Huang family is still very solid." ”

Cao Lizi knelt down with a smile and begged: "Please fulfill the master's aunt, if the hookup is successful, five taels of silver will be offered, and I will inherit the Huang family's property in the future, and I will rebuild the nunnery for you." ”
