The soles of the feet and the soles of the shoes were wet with a water mark, and a faint heat lingered.

Bad luck, what is this place! If you talk about the scenery, this is undoubtedly a good place to escape the world and live alone, but here is blank, there is no one to see, the more quiet the more fearful.

Zhu Beichen even slowed down his breathing, in line with the rhythm of the lake, for fear of disturbing the unknown species in the dense fog, the soaked soles of his shoes stepped under the soft soil of the lake shore, and continued to walk along the shore of the lake.

He always felt that on the other side of the lake, the rising sun hidden behind the mountains had an indescribable strangeness, and after a long time, it still crawled slowly, half of its body was still below the horizon, and the light was getting dimmer and dimmer.

The lake was so big that there was no end in sight, and under the white fog, Zhu Beichen felt fear.

After walking for about ten minutes, a few hundred meters apart, the bubbles in the lake rose and fell, clashing with the constraints of the lake, and it seemed that something was pouring up from the lake to the shore. He couldn't see, only the slightest sound. The sparkling surface of the lake is like a giant mirror, and a white mist with temperature is constantly emerging.

A hazy silhouette of the human body distorted in the fog, and Zhu Beichen was slowly approaching the man in the fog. He was afraid of this kind of scene, especially the scene where the fog obscured the sky and the sun, and he had experienced such a scene countless times, for fear that the silhouette in the fog would turn around, and it would be the pair of eyes with only the whites of the eyes.

From the back, this man sat on the shore of the lake, wearing a robe, wearing a hat, and a fishing basket beside him, and he was seen carrying a bamboo fishing rod and fishing calmly. The scenery of the lake and the mountains, the scenery of the characters, are naturally harmonious.

Zhu Beichen couldn't see the front of the angler, who was sitting motionless on the edge of the lake like a stone sculpture, his eyes focused on his every move on the lake.

The breeze lifted the hair of the angler's sideburns, and the black silk was mixed with strands of silver hair, and the line connecting the rod to the surface of the water gently slowed twice. He is not in a hurry to start the rod, the external environment can easily interfere with the judgment of the angler, he is an experienced fisherman.

Zhu Beichen was behind, for fear of disturbing this eccentric person, few people wore such simple clothes and were equipped with such primitive fishing equipment. Especially in a deserted environment, he needs to be more vigilant, if he encounters a 'person'.

He finally mustered up the courage and asked in a low voice, "Uncle, did you catch more fish today?" ”

The fisherman continued to sit without moving, not minding at all that there was one more person around him, or he didn't notice that there was such a person as Zhu Beichen around him. His hat obscured almost the entire expression of his face, and a wisp of gray beard could be faintly seen on the half of his face.

Zhu Beichen felt that he was reckless, bowed down in a proper manner, and asked again in a soft tone, "Old man, please ask, do you know where this is?" ”

He was still silent, his eyes focused only on the calm surface of the lake, and he didn't feel that the sky was getting darker.

Could it be that he is a deaf person, he is already very polite, and there is no disrespect to you.

Zhu Beichen couldn't help but slander, and his doubts rose sharply, this place is deserted and uninhabited, how can there be such an old man sitting here fishing?

The fisherman finally moved at this time, he quickly put away the fishing rod, sorted out the earthworm bait, and searched for the results in the fishing basket, and finally looked at the young man behind him with a puzzled face, "Is there anything wrong with the boy?" ”

Hey, the old man's words and deeds were very normal, and Zhu Beichen put down his heart for a moment, "Uncle, I want to ask, what is this place?" ”

"Sanglu Prefecture." The old man looked at him with a peaceful demeanor and puzzled.

Sangluokzhou, how did you get to Sangluokzhou?

"Shangshu" records: The river crosses the Jiujiang River as for the Tanglin also. Southwest flow, water accumulation for the lake, there is Qinglin Mountain in the west of the lake, the ancient name is Sangluokzhou. In ancient times, the governor of Eastern Wu and Sangluozhou built a gossip array in Kyushu, and the fog did not disperse after many years.

Zhu Beichen has a deep foundation in Sinology, he knows this place name, but now that he is in the Heishui River in southern Yunnan, how could he suddenly come to Sangluo Prefecture in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River?

"Uncle, but I obviously saw a stone tablet on the shore of the lake before, and it said Luo Jia's!" If the fisherman is in question, the only thing that can be trusted is a stone inscription in a place.

"Nonsense, the name of this place is Sangluo, and it is the place where the commanders of the Eastern Wu Metropolitan Commander and the army are trained, why did Luo Jia say." The fisherman was faintly angry.

The old man's wording was extremely strange, how did he feel that talking to him was like chewing ancient texts, Zhu Beichen carefully looked at the other party's clothes and dressed, and suddenly opened his mouth in shock.

At the fisherman's hollow hat, the hair is coiled into a bun and appears outside, and the neckline of the garment inside the robe is large and curved, about a foot wide, and the fabric is coarse. Dressed in ancient costumes, coupled with a strange way of speaking, Zhu Beichen instantly felt his head numb.

He didn't know how to continue the conversation between the two, scratched the back of his head, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and felt hot in his throat, "How is the harvest of the old man today, fishing, how many big fish have you caught?" ”

The fisherman tapped the number of fish in the basket and held out four fingers at him. The frowning eyebrows seemed to be not too satisfied with this result. Zhu Beichen looked into the old man's fish basket, and it was indeed four small fish that were jumping around.

"This year, the fish in this lake are becoming more and more difficult to find, and today there are even four fish, and the fish are as small as mice." As the fisherman said this, he glanced at the clear water of the lake a few times, and his eyes were full of regret. The surface of the shallow and transparent water layer is clear and traceless, without the slightest trace of biological floating, and not even a single aquatic plant can be seen.

I remember that many years ago, the fish here were fat and big, hidden in the shallow water, and their mouths were gluttonous, and there were more than ten fish in a short time.

"Don't leave it today, Xiaoerlang, go home early and rest, it's not early." The fisherman happily provided fishing gear, and the half-empty fish basket bypassed Zhu Beichen in a trance, and gradually disappeared behind the thick fog.

Zhu Beichen glanced at the fish basket, hey, it was obviously four tails just now, why are there only three tails left now. His heart beat faster with a shudder, and he couldn't tell what he was confused.

Wait, what did the fisherman say? He was saying, it's not early, do you want to go back to rest early? Now is obviously the time when the sun is rising, how could he say this. The sun is still in the east, how can it be set.

The light faded little by little, the more Zhu Beichen's doubts became, and then he looked carefully to the east, the sunshine was slowly buried behind the mountains, and now it was really not sunrise, but sunset!

He finally knew why, after all this time, the sun was still hidden in the mountains, and the light by the lake was gradually dimming, and the sun was setting in the east.

(If this is a spoiler, please guess where the lake is, what is the name of the lake, what history it will involve, and why the sun sets in the east.) ）
