Volume 2 - The Feast of Kyoto Chapter 58 What is a Fan Cage
On the shore of the backwater lake of Prince Jin's mansion, Jiang Yunchang patted Bu Youkong's shoulder while admiring the wealth of his little brother, he knew that this kid was rich before, but he didn't expect to be so rich. Good guys, many princes and nobles in Zhongzhou are afraid that they are not so arrogant.
"Brother Bu, I only know the name of Shuihu this time, but you can tell me what the allusion is. Jiang Yunchang stared at the vibrant Fuzhong Lake, leaving the back of his head to Bu Youkong, and said unhurriedly.
When Bu Youkong heard this, he immediately came to his senses, with an expression of tending to be inflammatory, and said flatteringly: "Big brother, if you want to talk about the source of the lake this time, you will have to say it, and listen to the little brother." Big brother, you know that the establishment of dynasties in the Eastern Continent has to pay attention to some feng shui, almost every dynasty's capital is on the dragon vein, often the stronger the dynasty, the stronger the Yuan vein and spiritual vein in its leyline, and the southern kingdom is not excluded.
It is said that when the capital was established in the south, it was chosen by a hidden feng shui master, and the dragon veins in the south were still young at that time, so the master inscribed a large Juyuan array here to raise dragons. Subsequently, the site was chosen to establish a mansion here.
About a thousand years later, the originally flat terrain of Fuchu slowly began to subside, and the prototype of this lake gradually became formed. Strange to say, no matter how heavy the rain falls, this lake will not accumulate water for a minute, but at the time of the spring equinox every year, it will automatically overflow, similar to the resurgence after rain, so it is called a backwater lake. “
After listening to Bu Youkong's introduction, Jiang Yunchang had a general understanding of this place, because he was born with little roots in geographical literature, so he didn't understand what the resurgence meant, but as a big brother, he didn't understand it.
Then he nodded lightly and said with a smile: "You kid is not bad, this mansion is so magnificent, and this lake is so full of vitality, it is in line with your identity as a prince." ”
"Ahem, the eldest brother has won the prize, it's okay for me to put on a score in front of others, if I want to compare it with the aura of the eldest brother, it is really more empty than death." Bu Youkong replied to Jiang Yunchang's words.
Jiang Yunchang glanced back at Bu Youkong with satisfaction, Bu Youkong smiled back, and continued: "I think back then, when the eldest brother took me to the rivers and lakes, there were more than a dozen big men on the opposite side, that guy, all of them are not weak, and the younger brother has no courage to face it, big brother, you don't lose momentum at all, one person is in front of me, and the momentum is alive to the bandits who have cultivated strong on the opposite side to suppress it, this is called momentum, I have at most two dollars, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning." ”
Jiang Yunchang couldn't help but feel a little emotional when he heard the beginning of the sky talk about this past, thinking about how fast time flies, it has been almost forty or fifty years.
He remembered that it was a small place, it seemed to be called Yandang Mountain, and he only knew that it was in the Tianxiao Prefecture Ning Yu Country.
At that time, he and Bu Youkong were not at a high level, he was at the stage of the Martial Sect, and Bu You had just cultivated seriously for less than three years, as for the realm, he didn't know, let alone be an innate martial artist.
The dozen or so big men in Bu Youkong's mouth were actually a group of old ladies, but all of them were not weak, so he was extremely passive at that time.
That group of girls is really ruthless, and don't want a face at all, as soon as they come up, they are beaten by a group, because they want to protect the step of the sky, so he had to move the battlefield far away while being beaten, resulting in the injuries on the body are not weak, fortunately, the group of old ladies have no murderous intentions, just a simple robbery, after the fight, he will tear off his clothes and slowly appreciate, the leading guy is ready to take him back to the mountain to marry, how can he be captured, he has to fight with the enemy to break the net, how do you know that the stunned green step and the sky ran back by himself, making him very passive.
He was preparing to "kill" the plan had to give up, and then he was forcibly taken up the mountain, and I don't know why the group of old ladies are like blind, and the beautiful and delicate steps are not teased, so they focus on themselves.
Eh, it's a poignant past. But fortunately, on the day of "he and the mountain lord Yingjiaojiao got married", Bu Youkong bought off the people in the mountain, and he escaped by luck, so he did not fall into the miserable end of the wife of the mountain lord of Yandang Mountain. Thinking of this, Jiang Yun couldn't help but laugh for a while, and then seemed to think of something again, and it was inevitable that he was a little sad.
Seeing Jiang Yunchang's expression, Bu Youkong guessed that he was recalling the past, and knew that the eldest brother had something on his mind, so he was ready to find an opportunity to have a drink with the eldest brother.
When he went out to practice, when he met Jiang Yunchang, the realm was indeed very low, and after seeing Jiang Yunchang at first sight, the latter heard the news that he was going to go to the rivers and lakes, and he couldn't rest assured, so he forcibly became a protector of Bu Youkong for a few years, of course, the two often discussed, and often ended with Bu Youkong's nose and swollen face.
When Bu Youkong and Jiang Yunchang entered the mansion, there were already men to inform Bu Fanchen, and after knowing that he had a godfather uncle from home, Bu Fanchen took the curtain and began to set off.
On the shore of the backwater lake, Bu Fanchen met his father, looking at the middle-aged man who was seven feet tall, with a Chinese face and long hair, Bu Fanchen knew that the relationship between him and his father was not ordinary, because the man had a natural sense of righteousness, giving people a sense of righteousness, which seemed serious, but in fact made people very kind.
Stopping in front of Bu Youkong and Jiang Yunchang, Bu Fanchen bent down slightly, bowed, and then waited for his father to introduce the two of them.
Bu Youkong stepped forward and said with a smile: "Big brother, this is the disobedient boy of my family, Bu Fanchen, and the one behind him is his personal maid Murong Qiyan." "Because of Bu Fanchen, Bu Youkong also introduced Makuhime, which means that Bu Youkong respects Bu Fanchen's wishes, and does not treat Makuhime as a person, and of course he will not easily treat her as his own.
"Uncle Jiang is good," Bu Fanchen smiled.
"The sword attendant Murong Qiyan greets Mr. Jiang," Mu Ji saluted.
Jiang Yunchang stayed on Bu Fanchen, touched the latter's head with his hand, and then said with a hearty smile: "I have long heard that your kid brought us a nephew back, and when I see it today, we Fanchen are about to become a big guy, look at this appearance, it is much better than you." After Jiang Yunchang nodded at Mu Ji, he looked at Bu Youkong and said.
Being praised by others, Bu Fanchen was a little embarrassed, scratched his head and replied: "Thank you Uncle for his reputation." ”
Bu Youkong seemed to be convinced of Jiang Yunchang's words, and said, "What the eldest brother said is that when did you miss the eyes of looking at people." ”
Jiang Yunchang glanced at Bu Youkong with satisfaction, extremely happy, then turned his head to look at Bu Fanchen, paused and said, "Fanchen, uncle is bringing you an old friend this time." ”
Bu Fanchen was a little surprised, and looked at Bu Youkong in confusion.
Mu Ji, who was standing behind Bu Fanchen, frowned, originally there was a message on the dark web, about the border, but the news was full of uncertainty, so she didn't discuss with Bu Fanchen or didn't think about how to discuss with Bu Fanchen, and at this moment, listening to what Jiang Yunchang said, she will analyze the cause and effect of the whole thing into four layers.
Jiang Yunchang noticed Bu Fanchen's expression and said, "Uncle came to the south this time and brought a tolerant child with him, so he should have already arrived in the capital." “
The children of all tolerances, Bu Fanchen immediately thought of the head of the Ming Erguo Zhao, and then thought of Chen Wa's brothers and sisters, Chen Wa still did not join the all-inclusive half a month after recuperating from his injuries, so what Jiang Yunchang said should be Jin'er's girl, thinking of this step Fanchen asked a little excitedly: "What the uncle said, but Chen Jin'er from the ferry town of Ming'er Country." ”
Jiang Yunchang nodded lightly. Bu Fanchen was always less than twelve years old, and it was inevitable that he had some youthful temperament, seeing Jiang Yunchang nodding, he couldn't help but clench his fists happily, a typical youthful mentality of joy in appearance.
After a few words with the two elders, he hurried to the branch with Makuhime.
The pawnshop is a bit different from other similar industries, they don't blindly pursue their own specials, but choose to follow the local customs.
For example, the design of this pawn shop in the southern capital is very different from that of the country of Naga. In addition to their all-inclusive signs in Zhongzhou, which are extremely conspicuous, in the rest of the places are more conspicuous in the design of signboards with landmarks or customs characteristics of various locations, and the word all-inclusive only occupies a little position, giving people the feeling of being more intimate, without such a sense of gap between poverty and wealth, and the rules of all-inclusive are the same as their signboards, low-key life, high-profile work.
In the southern country of Kyoto, it is a lot of strength, but with just one branch, it is extremely difficult to choose a store location such as Zhenxiang Street.
Located in the center of Haoxiong Street in the Second Ring Road, it is the Nanguo head office of all Rong, Bu Fanchen and Mu Ji chose the street with more people to walk to Haoxiong Street, in this eventful autumn, today he does not want to be in a rare alley with people, just the so-called friends to come to a distant place, very happy.
Walking into all sides, there are not many guys inside, about a dozen people, but all of them are good players, at least Bu Fanchen can't see the depth of their cultivation. Seeing someone coming, a woman immediately got up to greet Bu Fanchen, smiling very sincerely. Because the faces of the two were relatively unfamiliar, the woman said enthusiastically: "You two, can you please help?" ”
Facing the enthusiastic woman, Bu Fanchen smiled back, and Makuhime nodded slightly, more to observe the surrounding situation, for her, going out is always in a state of combat readiness.
"Hello ma'am, I'm here for someone. "Bu Fanchen will say.
The woman was a little surprised, she came to find someone, and it was so unfamiliar, could it be that it was a customer who was traveling with her, so she thought of it in her heart, so she asked: "Dare to ask Gongzi's surname, who is you looking for, Xiaorong will wait for Gongzi to report it together."
Bu Fanchen replied softly: "Sister Rong over there, the kid is exempt from your surname Bu, come here to find my friend Chen Jin'er." ”
The woman who called herself Xiaorong heard the surname Bu, and was slightly surprised, after all, this surname is only one in the capital of the southern country, Yu Guang looked at Bu Fanchen, and quickly rummaged for the news about Chen Jin'er, and then he really had no clue, so he looked at Bu Fanchen with some embarrassment.
Bu Fanchen saw the confusion in the other party's eyes, remembered something, and immediately added: "Oh! My friend should have just arrived, and he was not very old, about eleven years old." ”
The woman seemed to remember something, pointed to the rest room in the distance, and said sincerely: "Wait a while, I'll ask you, you two can go and rest for a while."
Bu Fanchen nodded and walked into the private room with Makuhime.
The design style used here is similar to most of the southern countries, but with a slight addition of Zhongzhou characteristics, each private room has a faint vitality gossamer, which is the effect of the Yuan array on the wall, and there is a private room full of aura not far away, it seems that this is really wealthy, and the infrastructure is very perfect.
It didn't take long for a young man who looked very energetic to come to Bu Fanchen's box, and with the natural temperament flowing on his body, Bu Fanchen knew that this person was at least a person in charge. didn't see Chen Jin'er's figure, Bu Fanchen felt a trace of solemnity in his heart, turned around and glanced at Mu Ji, and the two of them analyzed the various possibilities of things in their hearts very tacitly.
The young man's name was Lu Ang, twenty-four years old, and when he arrived at the box, there was a hint of apology in his eyes, and he said to Bu Fanchen: "Dare to ask Bu Gongzi, are you looking for Ms. Chen Jin'er?" ”
Bu Fanchen nodded lightly, and then the latter's expression was slightly embarrassed, and continued: "Don't hide it from Gongzi, Chen Jin'er was indeed sent to Kyoto by other places to intern, but Miss Jin'er is not in Jingrong at the moment, and Miss Jin'er has not been to Junerong yet, I just received the news that I know that there is such a person, and I have never met." ”
Bu Fanchen's eyes condensed slightly, frowned, and said, "I don't know if this son has any news of Jin'er." ”
Only then did the young man patiently explain: "This is to know, our people received the news, after Miss Jin'er arrived in Beijing, she went to the fifteenth prince to step in the Xiu Mansion, I only know that people are very safe, and Miss Jin'er herself has also given news to Jun Rong, saying that if a young man surnamed Bu comes, just tell him the news." ”
Bu Fanchen nodded and thanked the people, and then prepared to leave, when leaving, the woman who had been entertained before walked in front of the two and asked if they needed to call a carriage and horse, after Bu Fanchen and Mu Ji refused, the woman briefly introduced her name, Xu Rongrong.
On the way to Bu Yu's mansion, Bu Fanchen spoke to the curtain with his heart. "Sister Maku, what do you think of this matter? “
What he asked was why Chen Jin'er's news, someone would know before him, and why Jiang Yunchang told him that he knew. Of course, what he didn't know was that not long after he went out, Bu Yuxiu sent someone to inform Bu Fanchen, after all, he had already formed an alliance with Chen Jin'er, so there was no need to hide it, and many plans were abandoned.
Makuhime thought for a while, and replied in the same heart: "It stands to reason that Childe shouldn't deserve so much attention, I think someone did it on purpose." ”
Bu Fanchen replied: "No accident, it is the three elders who intend to make me a person in the bureau, I have nothing to say about this, I am more puzzled by the meaning of this bureau, according to the context of little by little, first the uncle left Beijing, and then there was Bu Yuxiu was born, and then Haoyun's cousin joined, if it is just a change of imperial power, I am afraid it is difficult to explain." ”
Makuhime was silent for a while and then replied: "I don't know if Childe has ever heard a saying - it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, and there is a new hatred and old hatred together." ”
Bu Fanchen glanced at the direction of the palace, and said helplessly: "In the eyes of my father and several elders, we will always be children, pushing me to the cusp, and then let me quit this deep palace battle without regrets, away from the cage of the Bu family." ”
Makuhime replied: "Don't hide it from Childe, although I don't understand what they do, but if it were me, I would do the same, every deep palace is a huge cage, Childe is so talented, once trapped by the cage, it's a pity." ”
Bu Fanchen replied: "Sister Mu, what is Fan Cage?"
Makuhime was dumbfounded, as if she knew how to use some words, but the reason was not very clear.
Seeing that Mu Ji was silent, Bu Fanchen spoke again: "Once my parents were not at home, and when I was just getting into cultivation, I had a red-bearded uncle who talked to me about this topic. The world thinks that the mortal world is the cage of the heart, and if the ripples of the heart lake are not removed, it will be difficult to climb to the top of the mountain, but in fact, only when you come from the world, stay away from the red dust, and return to the world, that is the real break the cage. The so-called fan cage is just a heart barrier, and the real heart barrier is to worry about thousands of strands in the heart, and a wisp can be measured for eternity. ”
Although Bu Fanchen still doesn't understand the meaning of that sentence, he wants to vaguely perceive the artistic conception in Ye Bohong's words. In fact, there is another sentence after that sentence, but Ye Bohong didn't mention it, that is, the more direct way to break the cage is to be empty in the heart and in the god position.
The high gods are outside the cage, but the gods are already a separate species and cannot be counted according to the spirit.
Bu Yu Xiu's mansion, everyone recognized Bu Fanchen, so soon someone took him to the guest room where Bu Yu Xiu and Chen Jin'er were.
When passing by a bend alley, Bu Fanchen heard a rush of footsteps, and as soon as he turned the corner, he saw the panting Chen Jin'er looking at him happily.
When Chen Jin'er heard that Bu Fanchen had also come to Bu Yuxiu's mansion, she jumped out like a child. I happened to meet Bu Fanchen at the bend of the corridor, and when I saw Bu Fanchen, who was growing fast, he was already like a big boy, and Chen Jiner felt a little shy in his heart.
Met in a foreign country, and it happened that there was only this one old knowledge in a foreign country, and it happened that it was the old knowledge in her heart, how could the girl not be excited in her heart, in front of him, she was the student Chen Jin'er, who was one year younger.
After the two looked at each other in silence, Bu Fanchen leaked a knowing smile, seeing that Jin'er was safe and there was no danger, he was relieved, as for the embarrassment that he hadn't seen for two years, it seemed a little redundant.
Just like in the country of Ming'e, Bu Fanchen raised his hand slightly. And Chen Jin'er saw Bu Fanchen and her signature moves, so she ran to Bu Fanchen's side with a smile, and the small head just rested under Bu Fanchen's palm.
And coquettishly said: "Master, let's finally meet again." Bu Fanchen heard the word master, but smiled helplessly.
During the period when he was recuperating from his injuries in Ming'e Country, Chen Jin'er, Chen Wa, and Lu Qijun were at Chen Wa's house together. And Bu Fanchen, as a slightly knowledgeable person, naturally became the one who taught Chen Jin'er, so he had the name of master and apprentice in Chen Jin'er.
And in that month, several people also lived very happily, in that small wooden house, Qiu Guzhi cooked for everyone as the mother, and Lu Qijun became a coolie to take everyone up the mountain to collect firewood and catch some wild beasts.
Whenever Chen Jin'er and her mother came back from picking wild vegetables, Bu Fanchen would always reach out and touch the little girl's head.
Of course, Bu Fanchen regards Chen Jin'er as his sister, different from Hongyu, he still has different feelings for Hongyu, so he is very helpless about the master-apprentice status, but the eldest brother Chen Wa agreed, and he couldn't help it.
According to Chen Wa's words, it is a matter of opinion, Jin'er is called Master Bu Fanchen, and Bu Fanchen is called Brother Chen Wa.
In the country of Ming'e, because of the lack of yuan stones and the abundance of gold, their yuan stones and gold exchange is higher than that of other places, so Chen Wa, who has two yuan stones, should be regarded as a rich man in the town, but at that time, in addition to his mother's medical expenses, they lived a very simple life every day, and every unexpected joy was the scallion pancake and beast meat.
In Bu Fanchen's heart, the cabin there is the same as a small island, although there are not many people, it is his world. And because his friends are still relatively weak, he wants to become strong and protect his mortal world from the wind and rain.
True warmth comes from real life and human feelings, while material satisfaction is just an additional condition. If you don't have it, too much will not help.
