Volume 1 The Search for a Thousand Years Chapter 31 Encounters and Acquaintances
Recalling the wonders of his childhood, Qu Yuan turned to the reading cave, which is a testimony of his hard work as a child.
Qu Yuan sat down on a piece of bluestone by the spring, looking at the graceful stone pillars, stalagmites and stalactites on the top of the cave, standing slim in the ethereal mist. The sparkling water droplets slowly fell down the tip of the stone stalactite, drop by drop, and the sound of ding dong was like a pearl falling on a silver plate.
My mind goes back to my childhood reading days: this cave is so beautiful!
Once, on the way home from school, I found a cave, and the cave was still bright, so I took out a roll of bamboo slips and chanted in a low voice.
The maiden stood at the entrance of the cave and listened silently. As if following her younger brother, she came to the fishermen and silkworm girls on the shore of Dongting Lake for a while, and then to the woodcutters and hunters on Jiuzhi Mountain...... It wasn't until night fell and the cave was hazy that she called out softly, "Brother."
"Who?" Qu Yuan was stunned.
When he looked up with wide eyes and saw that it was the eldest sister standing at the entrance of the cave, he hurriedly stepped forward with a smile: "Eldest sister, I read the folk songs of our Chu Kingdom, which is beautiful!"
However, the teacher didn't allow us to read it in school, so I couldn't help it, so I ......."
"Then I have to say something to my family." The daughter-in-law only reproached, and then took her brother's hand and walked out of the cave together.
Time passes, the sun moves slowly, sit in the reading cave and feel the summer cicadas in the afternoon, the nerves are relaxed, the tiredness of the afternoon hits, and the rest is sweet.
It's been a while since I've been out, it's time to go back.
Qu Yuan obeyed his father's wishes and wanted to go to the Zhao family to meet Shibo.
But I still rest at home for a few days, and I rarely come back once, so I have to spend more time with my grandmother. I don't know when I'll be back if I leave this time.
On the other hand, Zhao Yue has been to several county towns in Yongcheng, and the difference between the intuition and this place after a thousand years is too great, and he can't see that this place is the same as his hometown.
If there are county records recorded in each county, you may not be able to find clues, but where to check the county records? I already knew that I would ask Qu Yuan about this. There are all questions about how the county system of Chu State was governed and managed, the historical documents recorded in the county chronicles, and where the books of each family were collected......
In desperation, Zhaoyue could only inquire about the legends, history, and major events of this piece.
Today, Zhaoyue rested in a tea shop as usual, drinking tea and listening to the topics that passers-by talked about after dinner. There are always topics in the bustling market that can bring useful information, but it is tantamount to looking for a needle in the bottom of the sea.
Coincidentally, Zhaoyue was drinking tea, and two people came at this time, wasn't this one of the people who met with Qu Yuan in the restaurant two days ago to discuss and prepare to save Shang Ying? However, there is no disease in this, and it is estimated that he has already gone back to Qin to discuss specific countermeasures to save Shang Ying.
In addition to the person who was called brother by Zhu Li that day, there was another one I didn't know.
At that time, I just listened to the voice of this brother, but I didn't see me, and I couldn't call him a brother and sister, but no one thought that there would be a confidant who knew him on a journey to another world, and who wouldn't remember it. It turned out that at that time, this Huang man had a certain status in the rivers and lakes, and this person traveled around the world in his early years, acted chivalrous and righteous, and met many friends and heroes in the rivers and lakes.
Fate is subtle, because this person's physiognomy is very distinctive, although a few days ago, he was only left with Qu Yuan for a quick glance, and he was remembered, when I saw him in a dark black robe, with an inky blue coat, half a bundle of hair, wearing a jade hair crown, and a white hosta through the hair crown. With two short hairs hanging down his face, he was a child, and he actually saw a man who was better looking than Qu Yuan, Qu Yuan's sword eyebrows and starry eyes, with a long sword, full of heroism. And this one is a little softer.
"Brother Huang, I know that you have great powers, friends all over the world, you are righteous and bold, thanks to great love, I am fortunate to have known you for three lives," the stranger spoke first.
"Brother is polite, in the past, I was fortunate to be rescued by the Zhao family, so as not to starve to death, the kindness of the Zhao family"
It turns out that this Huang man has such a large sphere of influence, and it is good to get acquainted with him if he has the opportunity, just thinking about it, Zhao Yue has not yet figured out how to talk to him, and he is a little distressed......
I think that this person who talked to Huang Qing has something to do with Zhaofu, I heard that Zhaofu has a collection of 10,000 volumes, second only to Jixia Academy in scale, and there will definitely be a record of Yongcheng's own hometown, as well as a secret book about crossing over.
"Brother Huang, there is still something to ask you for in the future, the thing is like this, our young lady disappeared a few days ago, and the search everywhere was fruitless, and the housekeeper found out that the young lady may be taken in by Qu Mansion and returned to his hometown with Qu Yuan, but Qu Yuan has returned to his home, and Miss is not by his side, so he ordered me to come here to investigate"
Hear this, huh? Could it be me? I thought that instead of searching aimlessly in the carpet here, it would be better to go to Zhaofu. Does he really have anything to do with Zhaofu? Thinking of this, Zhaoyue thought about what to do.
Don't respond yet, Zhaoyue continued to listen to the words of the two, could it be that there were really people in the world thousands of years ago who were thinking about their own strange soul ((=^▽^=) except for Qu Yuan, who was thinking about Zhaoyue at home, could it be the master of this body? Her loved ones are looking for themselves?
Zhao Yue couldn't suppress the thoughts in her heart, and involuntarily glanced back, and it happened that Huang Qing, who was strong, saw it.
Huang Qing also noticed the woman who was staring at him.
After a while, after the people of the Zhao family left, Zhao Yue was about to slip away and be seen by Huang Qing behind him.
Huang Qing: "Girl, please stay!" Do you recognize it? ”
"Oh, I don't know sir," Akitsuki saluted the visitor.
Obviously, it's rude to listen to someone, and you can't tell him I'm here to eavesdrop on them.
Huang Qing: "Dare to ask the girl, who is it?" In the lower Huang Qing"
Because Zhaoyue didn't particularly know that there was such a person in this era, she didn't show a very surprised look.
"My name is Aunt Qu, I followed my brother back to my hometown to visit relatives, and stayed here for a few days" Zhaoyue is a little weak-hearted, if you say that you are here to look for relatives, you will definitely not be able to avoid asking questions, maybe you will leak the matter of crossing, I'm sorry little sister, I can only use your name.
"Oh? It turned out to be Qu Yuan's sister-in-law" Huang Qing was a little surprised, and after thinking about it, this should be the person the Zhao family is looking for. However, this woman's face is delicate and arrogant, and she is inexplicably attractive.
"Mr. Huang, I saw you discussing the matter of saving Shangjun with my brother on the day I was separated, so we had a relationship at that time, but the little girl was a little drowsy at the time, but I still remember your appearance, because you are the only one who is better looking than my brother." Zhaoyue's face was full of sincerity.
It was the first time Huang Qing had heard someone comment on his appearance so clearly, and it was a woman who said it so directly, and he was even more curious about how a woman could stay by Qu Yuan's side for so long, and she was favored and taken care of by him. Unconsciously became more curious about the heroine in front of him.
(Qu Yuan's study in the cave is said to be a good story of diligence and studiousness.) After his death, in order to commemorate him, the people of his hometown named this cave in the back mountain "Reading Cave". )
