The whole Kunlun mountain range is the dragon that travels across the land of China in the west and east, the Nucang River is attached to the dragon's belly in the south side all the way and runs with it, there are countless large and small ferries along the way, the ghost gate ferry in the west, the stone gate ferry, the middle of the three fish mouth, the nine beaches around, Wuya Town, are the beach stone ferries in the mountains, not to mention the danger is still few, until the river is wide and the water is slow.

If the monks really came all the way to the south, it would have been the closest to Sanyukou, but they did not do so, and after a short rest after feeding the horses, they turned around and headed westward upstream. When the Supreme Treasure was in the mountains, he also carefully looked at the shape of the Kunlun Mountain Realm, and after a little thought in his heart, he understood where to go - Shimen Ferry.

The reason why Shimen Ferry gets its name is because there is a river that flows into the Nucang River, this river is not big and the water is deep and rapid, and when it dries up, you can see that there is a stone gate arched out of the water in the river, and the river is named Shimen River, and the place where the two rivers meet will also take the name of Shimendu.

If the monks and monks take this Shimen crossing, then they can go all the way along the Shimen River to the southwest, and they can enter the territory of Tibet not far away, not to mention the relatively close road, and they can also get offerings, horses, food and lodging and all the things they need by virtue of their status as monks, all the benefits and no disadvantages, and they will naturally be the best choice to go here.

After the monks had set out, they did not stop, and they walked through the mountains and forests all day long, either eating or resting, but only getting on their horses, and then they went with the people. The tall and thin monk had excellent stamina, and walked at the front of the line all day long, chanting the Buddha's name in his mouth, and his face was not tired at all. Fortunately, the horse did not get better after eating the herbs, and the monks could not get on the horse, and the Supreme Treasure was able to follow the trail of horse dung.

He hung far behind the team, walked straight with his legs weak and his eyes shining, and he had already scolded the eighteenth generation ancestor of that guy in his stomach - if those people did not rest, he would never dare to sneak to save people, so even if his legs were shaking through chaff, he could only follow him, just hoping that the monks could go and save people after they were asleep at night.

It was a two-day walk. The Supreme Treasure followed several times, but the monks stopped in the middle of the mountain to let the horses rest, and after repeating it several times, he finally followed.

As the sun set, the monks finally walked out of a gentle place on the mountain pass, and saw that there was a small market in front of them, and the sparkling waves near the river not far away, their pace finally slowed down.

Shimendu, but it has arrived.

This ferry is the second big ferry upstream, and from then on it is no longer feasible to go up to the ghost gate ferry, but the boats are pulled up all the way by the slender man, so there is a lot of coolies to live here. When there are more people, there are more others, and they are very prosperous compared to other ferries.

Cheap prostitutes who scratch their heads, drunks who drink three or six times, gamblers who play money, thieves and rats, cross-faced mountain winds, well-dressed little white-faced flower bodhisattvas, pot-bellied shipowners, shrewd and capable masters, businessmen who come and go from north to south... It can be seen everywhere on the street, bustling like daytime.

But the most are those slender men who are full of vicissitudes and scars.

The monks avoided the streets and walked all the way to the back door of the humble inn, and after a few knocks the door opened, and a fat-faced woman came out. This woman is five big and three thick, smeared with thick powder all over her face, and her head and hands are densely covered with silver bracelets and gold chains that are several pounds, and the whole person is like a round radish full of toothpicks...

When the woman opened the door and saw these many people, her face changed, and she suddenly raised her voice and shouted: "Oops! You chartered my inn, and said that it would only accommodate seven or eight people, why are there so many dolls? If this doesn't work, there is no way to do business! If you don't add money, I won't agree to this!" ”

"Aunt Tuna, why are you so unreasonable?" One of the monks said angrily in this blunt tone: "It's good to charter your inn, how many people do you care about us?" As long as the money is not a lot for you, that's it. ”

"It's okay?" The woman's voice suddenly raised an octave, and she pointed at the monk with one hand on her waist and the other and shouted, "You actually told me that it doesn't matter? One more person, who has to eat and drink, and sleep, does it matter? I'm telling you, if you want to live, you have to add money to the old lady, otherwise, how far will you go..."

Pointing fingers, spitting stars flew all over the sky!

"You!" The monk suddenly became angry, and suddenly took a step upwards to theorize the theory, but as soon as this step was taken, the woman suddenly pulled her throat and exploded: "Oops! You want to hit someone! Suddenly, his eyes were about to bulge out, and he roared loudly: "Du Guozi, you bastard, the old lady is going to be beaten, you still don't let me get out!" ”

Suddenly, a bunch of people rushed out of the inn, and it was a tall leper man, with a slanted scar on his face that split his nose in half, missing his front teeth, hanging eyes, and when he arrived in the backyard, he shouted: "Who! Who is it! Who dares to bully us peacocks? Come out and show you, what the hell are the onion and garlic eggs there, fuck, what the hell, it's actually bullied my family! ”

When he went to the gate of the courtyard, he put the stick in his hand on his shoulder, spit out the yellow thick phlegm on the ground, stretched out his finger to drill in his nostrils, and squinted his eyes and said, "Auntie, what are they doing?" ”

Seeing that his man was coming, the flower peacock was more imposing, and said with his hands on his waist: "These eggheads of the Bao Inn, they don't add money to live with people, damn it, and they don't inquire, the old lady flower peacock has spent more than ten years in this stone gate, who has begged for a bargain from under the crotch of the old lady?" - You can't bargain under the crotch, let alone the fucking here! In a word, if you live, you will add money, and if you don't stop, you will get out! ”

"That's right! Don't stop fucking off! Du Guozi put the finger that had buttoned his nostrils into his mouth and pointed at the monk: "Hurry up!" Give me a good word, so as not to make my family angry..."

The monk has always been respected in Tibet, and he has been scolded like this, not to mention such a spicy and rude woman like Yujian, and at that moment, several people were furious, and they all pulled out their blades and weapons and wanted to do it - here Du Guozi's subordinates also surrounded him with a bang, and the dung rakes and door poles in their hands were raised high, and they were about to start fighting...

"Stop!" The tall and thin monk suddenly opened his mouth and shouted, "Stand down for me!" With a wave of his hand, he threw a money bag over: "Oh, take it and count, it's not enough to see enough." ”

The money bag suddenly made a loud noise, needless to say, he knew that it was the ocean, the flower peacock pinched it, took out one and blew it hard, put it in his ear to listen, and suddenly his face was full of flattery: "Oh, Buddha, how good it is to be like this earlier, don't you say?" Come in, come in, come in—Wang Balamb, throw away your Laoshizi for the old lady to pick up, hurry up and cook for the Buddhas, and wash your body at night with some hot soup and hot water......"

With a big butt squeezed, he pushed out a path at the door, and said politely: "Please come in, please come in." ”

The bhikshu monk who had seen this kind of face change like a flip book was suddenly a little dumbfounded, but the master bhikshu monk nodded slightly, gave a salute, and said with a calm face: "Xiexie, we have offended a lot!" He smiled at everyone and said, "Let's go, they are just asking for money, and they don't have any grudges against us, so why do you bother to make more troubles about small things?" ”

The monk then took his things and went into the courtyard with the children and horses. Those Du Guozi's men had already thrown their things aside, smiled and opened their faces to help bring the horses into the ring, adding grass and food, and asking for warmth, just like their own family members—

"Buddha, you rest with me..."

"Buddha, please here..."

"Oh, Buddha, you can eat some in a while..."

The flower peacock and Du Guozi personally brought the tall and thin monk into the house, smiling all over his face, and the thick powder on his face fell down piece by piece. After taking a lot of time, the flower peacock also threw a flattering eye: "Buddha, are you cold alone at night, do you want me... Hee-hee..."Covering the bloody mouth with both hands, she came out as a little girl, "... You know! ”

The butt slammed lightly against the tall and thin monk, almost knocking him off......

"Aunt Death, what are you doing here?" Du Guozi hurriedly held him up, scolded the flower peacock twice, and then squinted his eyes and smiled: "Buddha, this is the truth, my mother-in-law can't look at it, that is a good hand on the bed, especially the tongue... Hey, do you try it today? Guaranteed to let you get rid of your fatigue and be happy..."

The tall and thin monk heard this, and then looked at the charming state of the peacock, only to feel a surge in his heart, he hurriedly suppressed his anger, and sighed that this is all strange, and at the same time repeatedly excused himself: "Thank you, thank you, it's really unnecessary!" ”

As they spoke, they entered the hall, and were about to go up the stairs to the room, when suddenly the door of the inn was slammed open!

Before the peacock and the others came back to their senses, more than a dozen men had poured into the hall, all of them were green cloth shirts and trousers, wearing hats, carrying long knives at their waists, and carrying a large burden on their shoulders, covered with brown oil paper, and piled the burden in the middle of the hall without saying anything. The rulers were tyrannical, the salt tax was extremely heavy, and ordinary people could not afford to eat official salt, so they had to buy illegal salt from smuggler salt dealers, not to mention Shimendu, a remote and chaotic place. These people are fierce and strong, and they seem to be a bunch of salt lords.

The flower peacock suddenly became angry, and suddenly shouted: "The old lady didn't open the door to do business, what are you guys doing when you bastards come in?" Fuck, are they all blind? As he spoke, he scolded Du Guozi: "Why are you standing stupidly? Why don't you get me out of here? ”

Suddenly, I heard that someone among the salt sellers hahadaxiao: "Flower peacock, you dead girl, you are still so spicy!" Damn, don't you even recognize your father? The man slammed the hat on the table, revealing a face full of vicissitudes, and the peacock was stunned for a moment—

Then he flew down as if he was flying, and he was very happy in his mouth, and shouted: "Dad! It's really you! When did you start walking the trails again? Haven't you always walked down the waterways? ”

Du Guozi was not lazy, and hurriedly went down to salute: "My husband is healthy, I will kowtow to you." ”

The peacock's father slapped him on the shoulder and scolded: "You dog, you married my daughter and didn't give the money, but I haven't taken it home for three or four years, so I have to change the way to see my daughter, fuck!" With a wave of his hand: "Kick everyone else out for me, Dad will stay here for a few days, and your inn will be Daddy's bag!" "There is really a father and a daughter, and this father is arrogant and unreasonable, and he is not even inferior to his daughter.

"Huh?" However, as soon as these words came out, the two of them suddenly made bitter faces.
