Chapter 5, The Way Is Difficult
Peach blossom nunnery in Peach Blossom Dock, peach blossom fairy under Peach Blossom Nunnery.
The peach blossom fairy planted peach trees and picked peach blossoms for wine money.
Don't listen to the sound of the forest beating the leaves, why not groan and walk slowly.
Bamboo canes and shoes are lighter than horses, who is afraid?
Su Ang, who was infected by the smile, unconsciously remembered two lines of poetry, one is Tang Bohu's own "Peach Blossom Anthem", the other party is like the peach blossom fairy in the poem, demure, elegant, leisurely under the forest, let the time pass, the flowers bloom and fall without changing the original intention.
The other sentence is the work of my mentor Su Shi, that is, the beginning of "Fixing the Storm", let him be stormy, I only accompany him with bamboo canes and straw shoes, draped in smoke and rain, and sing a song of past and present lives.
And Su Ang also noticed that on the face with a free and easy smile, Tang Bohu's eyes flashed with sharp light, and in the leisurely, free, quiet and elegant, there was a hint of bohemianism, which was very consistent with the impression of Tang Bohu, in terms of Su Ang's feeling, that is-
Life and death are downbeat, and if you don't accept it, you will do it!
"There are 8,888 people in the Twelve Dynasties, and Tang Bohu is not outstanding among them, nor is he at the bottom, how did he become a 'talker'? Moreover, why did he say that he 'died soon'?"
Su Ang, who was led by Tang Bohu, began to calculate Tang Bohu and the motives of everyone in the Twelve Dynasties as if he was ill, and suddenly stood in place.
With a sudden pause in his palm, Tang Bohu was not surprised, turned his body, and looked Su Ang up and down.
"Figured it out?" he asked softly.
Nodding, Su Ang continued to walk forward.
Obviously very satisfied with Su Ang's insight, when he took Su Ang to give tea to everyone in the Twelve Dynasties, Tang Bohu's smile unconsciously increased a little more......
The moon and stars are scarce, but outside the town monument in Nanning, there is a sound that seems to be a cold wind whistling in the nine shades.
In addition to the area covered by the boundary monument and some important roads, the control of the Great Yao Kingdom over the wilderness is really weak.
"Self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country, and the ...... of the world" Picking up the candle flame of the oil lamp, Su Ang sighed in a low voice.
In fact, Xiu Shen and the Qi family, Su Ang have a relatively clear understanding, but when it comes to governing the country, in addition to the people, Wen Jie, Ren Xia, and Fang Shi, we must also consider the ghosts and spirits in the outside world, which is also something that many officials and strong people in the Great Yao Kingdom are entangled and fighting.
Staring at the jumping candle flame in front of him, Su Ang suddenly smiled, he was just a white body, he had not even taken the county exam, and he was not a showman, what kind of reason did he talk about governing the country? Now the most important thing is the road leading from Nanning to Chen'an County.
"Compared with the mountains and forests outside, although the road is relatively safe, it is also possible to encounter ghosts and spirits, and in addition, you must also consider the pursuit of the left ......."
Thinking of this, Su Ang knocked on the door of the little slave kite, and there was an anxious pandering sound from inside the door, and while waiting, he couldn't help but yawn.
Looking out the window, the night was already dark, and Zhi Lan'er, who was lying on her shoulder, covered her body with colorful wings and was already asleep.
"It took a lot of time to apprentice, and those twelve dynasties, tsk, it's very interesting. ”
Thinking of everyone in the Twelve Dynasties, Su Ang couldn't help but show a chuckle, some of those writers and celebrities were very open-faced, waving their hands, and they would be apprentices, but there were also some old-fashioned old men who cared about this kind of master-apprentice relationship very much, and they had to see that they had all the etiquette before they were willing to let go.
"Prepare the rice grain. ”
Soon, the little slave kite went out of the door, and under Su Ang's instructions, he cooked rice, got some dry food and water, and put all the remaining hundreds of coins and half taels in his bag.
Weighing the lower bag, Su Ang shook his head, took out half of the two coins and put half of them on the table. Half a tael is a copper coin, but it is a little heavier, and you have to travel lightly, so it is not suitable to bring too much.
"When you were in Nanning, you were careful in everything, as long as I lived, Zuo didn't have the courage to attack you, but if you heard the news that I was dead, don't hesitate and flee immediately. If I'm dead, Zuo Geng will definitely kill you!"
"The master is a person who wants to do great things, and he will not die!" the little slave shook his head vigorously like a rattle.
"Huh?" Suang looked over.
"This, uncle...... Uncle won't die......"
The voice was dry, very excited, and the little slave kite, whose slender little body was trembling, finally shouted out the title of 'uncle'. Su Ang was satisfied, smiled, turned around, and walked out of the room.
It was a little cold outside, and Zhilan'er, who was on his shoulder, blew the night breeze, rubbed her sleepy eyes, called 'Su Ang', and flew out from the top of the courtyard wall.
"It's good to be able to fly, but I've heard that if I become a lifter, I can fly too. ”
There is no banquet in the world that will never be dispersed, Su Ang is grateful to Zhi Lan'er, but he didn't think that Zhi Lan'er would accompany him for the rest of his life, smiled, and pushed open the somewhat mottled courtyard door.
Crunch!
In the small wooden house at the gate of Nanningli, the broken door creaked, and an old man, hunched over, walked out with an oil lamp.
This is the prison gate in Nanning, although it is just a gatekeeper, but like Zuo Geng, the lieutenant chief, he is the lowest-ranking official in the Dayao Kingdom, Su Ang still bent down and called 'Lord Xinfu'.
"Put out the pass. Sinf lifted his shriveled eyelids.
Taking out two bamboo slips from his bag, Su Ang carefully approached the light of the oil lamp. The so-called 'inspection' is the document used to stay in the inn, and the 'pass' is used to pass the county, county, township, pavilion, li, and various checkpoints.
Squinting his old eyes, Xin Fu carefully checked it, transcribed it again, and waved his hand: "Let's go!"
Su Ang, who had received the pass, did not move, thought about it, and put his hand into his bag.
"Don't give money, Lao Er knows what you want Lao Er to help you, but Na Zuo Geng said that if you want to leave, you must report it to him as soon as possible, of course, it is not that you cannot be accommodating, you only need to answer Xiao Lao Er a question. ”
"What's the problem?"
With a wry smile, Su Ang let go of the half tael he was holding, and pulled his hand out of his bag, he didn't think about escaping over the wall, but if he didn't check the inspection pass, even if he passed the county exam, it was likely that what was waiting for him was the law of the Great Yao Kingdom. The predecessor was a crime, and the middle brother Sur took the title to protect him, which is equivalent to bailing him out of prison, and before he got his own title, he violated the law again, and he was punished for both crimes.
That won't be much better than dying......
Holding up the oil lamp, Xin Fu, who was illuminated by the light of the candlelight, was solemn, and asked later: "You want to take the road of Wenjie, then, Xiao Lao'er asks you, what is governing the country? Don't fool Xiao Lao'er with clothing, food, housing, transportation, or things such as knights, soldiers, pawns, farmers, merchants, and hundred workers, what Xiao Lao'er wants to ask is ghosts and spirits!"
Hearing this, Su Ang's eyes widened, staring at the old man who suddenly seemed to be a lot taller on the other side.
"Who are you?" Su Ang asked dryly, I remember hearing in the past two years that the Inner Prison Gate boasted that he was once an eighth-level lord?
"A!" said Sinf, succinctly.
Su Ang, who was forced to ask, clenched his palms, he had considered this kind of problem, but in the Great Yao Kingdom, this was already a relatively high-end contradiction.
Thinking of Zhi Lan'er, who gave him great grace, and then thinking about what Tang Bohu said, 'governing the country and leveling the world', Su Ang pondered for a while, and gently spit out sixteen words:
"Under the whole world, it is not the king's land;
On the shore of the land, it is not the king's minister!"
Although his voice was light, the words were sonorous, and the hunched old man Xin Fu straightened up all of a sudden, and exclaimed in amazement: "All are the king's land? All are the king's ministers? You have no prejudice against ghosts and spirits! Do you know that those who are not of my race must have different hearts?"
"It depends on which one it is. ”
To put it bluntly, Su Ang didn't hide it, glanced at the 'hunchback' hanging behind the old man's upright body, and said eloquently: "There are dozens of families in Nanning, but are all of them of different races? There are tens of thousands of households in Chen'an County, is it true that Dongtu County next door also belongs to foreign races? There are eleven counties in the territory of my Yao country, including roads, mountains and forests, rivers, and lakes, are the ghosts and spirits inside not the people of my Yao country?"
"Fallacy!
Xin Fu staggered back, and when he had just asked Su Ang, his old face was as big as a ripe tomato, and he suddenly laughed again, clapped his hands, and said: "But, I like such a fallacy like you! Let's go! According to the rules, the lieutenant chief has to check the inspection of the prison door every three days." Zuo is a tyrant in our Nanning, I can't delay for three days, but if I delay for one night, forgive that greedy jackal, and I don't bother to gnaw on this meatless old bone!"
So, Suang thanked him. ”
After giving up, Su Ang turned and left.
Xinfu, who had been staring at Su Ang's back, saw Su Ang disappearing in the night, suddenly grabbed his face, tore off the old skin, and revealed a mighty middle-aged face: "It's hard to do the road, it's hard to do the road, infatuated Lang Su Ang, is it a misbelief rumor? Or is it a misunderstanding of you? If a person like you dies on the road, it's a pity!"
"Huh, then you can protect him all the way?"
The sound in his ears alarmed Xinfu, and the whole person jumped to the side quickly, a big sword that flashed silver, I don't know when it appeared in his palm, but when he saw who was speaking, his lips suddenly trembled.
"Let me ask you, is it okay to protect him to Chen'an County?"
The little Zhilan'er flew in the air, and her voice became clearer.
"No, no!" Xinfu bit his lip.
"But I'm not fighting power!" Zhi Lan'er landed on top of Xinfu's head, bringing a colorful halo, but the body the size of the knuckle of the little finger slowly blurred.
Later, the body condensed again, and his speech was not only several times clearer, but also full of elegance and nobility: "The spring grass is green, the spring water is green, and the spring water is green, sending you away from the north, what is the injury?"
Xinfu, who was stiff, rolled his eyelids and looked at the top of his head, he was so hard that only the whites of his eyes were left, and he still didn't dare to make Zhilan'er, who was parked on top of his head, feel unstable. Hearing Zhi Lan'er's farewell words to Su Ang, he slowly knelt on the ground as if his body had a thousand burdens, and cried into a tearful person.
"You have an order, Xinfu shouldn't refuse! But, the goddess of flowers, Xinfu has an unspeakable ......"
As if remembering something, Xinfu threw out the glittering silver sword of great light, the big sword broke out of thin air, and the tip of the sword turned into tiny mosquitoes, catching up with Su Ang and quietly landing on Su Ang's flowing hair.
is not an adult, still white, Su Ang can only scatter his hair now.
"What can be done, so-and-so has already done. ”
Xin Fu raised his hands eagerly, as if he wanted to hold up something, and sighed: "But it is difficult to ...... the way."
