073 Straw Man at the bottom of the lake
Walking in Shaoyang City, what Li Yu heard the most was all kinds of ridicule to the new governor - Li Yan, the assassin of Shaozhou.
Li Yu went to the state government office, and saw that those officials and officials were floating in things, and they entered the ministry and promoted to the court, and only retreated, doing nothing.
Shaking his head, he went out of town.
After looking for people and asking for directions, Li Yu rode [Bamboo Rib Ox] to Dongting Lake.
Dongting Lake in the Tang Dynasty was known as 800 miles square, "a vast ocean and a monstrous flood".
It was midsummer noon, and Li Yu didn't look at the eight scenes of Xiaoxiang, such as the wild geese falling in the flat sand, the twilight snow in the river sky, the sunny land in the mountain city, and the sunset in the fishing village.
He walked to a sparsely populated area on the shore of the lake, and with a wave of his hand, summoned [Snake Queen] and ninety-eight [Hairy Men].
"Exploring the bottom of the lake, looking for people in the sand. Remember to hide your body, don't be shocked. β
Li Yu said, and all Mao took the order and jumped into the water one after another.
[Long-haired people] have the characteristics of [water dwelling], and entering the lake is like returning to their home. After only a few breaths, he sank under the water and disappeared without a trace.
When [Snake Hime] saw the big lake, she also jumped into the water with a cheer. Her snake tail swayed in the water two or three times, and suddenly turned into a small red fish about a foot long.
The fish's tail swung and disappeared.
This Turning Fish [Snake Girl] is not a ginger tooth, but a ginger red fish newly summoned with [Chiling Stone].

Everything was arranged, Li Yu looked at the scenery along the shore of the lake for a while, took out a little broken silver from the [pot], and waved to call an old boatman.
The old boatman asked Lang Jun where he was going.
Li Yu threw the broken silver onto the boat, saying that he could carry it on the boat in Dongting.
The old boatman picked up the silver coin, tossed it in his hand, put it in his mouth and bit it, and then put his heart at ease. After greeting Li Yu on board the boat with a smile, he shook the oar.
In the sparkling waves, the old boatman started talking and asked Lang Jun where he came from.
Li Yu said that he came from Hebei Province and heard the beautiful scenery in the south of the Yangtze River for a long time, so he came to visit.
The old boatman smiled and asked, "Lang Jun has a harvest?" β
Li Yu said: "When I entered Jiangnan West Road, the water was soft and the mountains were warm, and the scenery was infinite, and I really gained a lot. Just one point, a fly in the ointment. β
The old boatman asked where it was insufficient.
Li Yudao, his surname is Li Mingyu, and he is a fisherman who reads fish. And the Shaozhou parent official, named "Li Sandpiper", the "Sandpiper" where the sandpiper and clam compete, has the same sound and different tone as "fishing".
The old boatman laughed, what a coincidence.
Li Yu smiled bitterly, no, it's not the one who heard people say "me".
The old boatman laughed and didn't answer.
Li Yu asked Li Tingshi if he had been to this Dongting Lake, and the old boatman pointed to the center of the lake and said: "Li Tingshi went to the post by boat, and when he arrived at Dongting, he saw that Junshan was beautiful like 'Penglai in the water', and he was very interested in climbing the mountain to enjoy the scenery. β
Li Yu asked the old boatman to prop up the boat and go to Junshan.
After leaving the boat, the old boatman asked when he would return, and Li Yu said, "I will return after all the fun", and waved him to go.
On Junshan Island, the peaks and mountains are coiled, the bamboo and trees are verdant, the scenery is elegant, and the viewers are like clouds.
Li Yu walked along the shore of the island and found nothing. When the sky was getting dark, the tourists and boats were clean, and he sat on the reef and made a splash.
After a quarter of an hour, a small red fish flew from the water.
As soon as Li Yu raised his hand, the fish fell into his palm.
Li Yu asked if there was a catch, and the red fish wagged its tail.
"Gather [the long-haired people], take Junshan as the center, turn over the sand and pout the soil, and look for people in the mud and sand."
After Li Yu finished speaking, the little red fish flipped out of his palm and fell into the water.
For the next five days, nothing was gained.
Dongting Lake, but there are many more ghost and weird stories.
A child accidentally drowned, and the "hairy monster" had to be lifted out of the water.
Someone dived to the bottom of the lake, saw several houses, water ghosts haunted, and the Jiaonu disappeared in a flash.
β¦β¦
Until the sixth day, Li Yu, who was immersed in reading in [Xianlu], [intelligence] had risen to 53, and [Snake Ji] Red Fish finally brought good news.
Or something β a breathing lump of mud.
Three [long-haired people] swam from somewhere under the Junshan Mountains, carrying a ball of mud. to a no-man's land boundary on the shore of Dongting Lake, and roll the mud together.
The mud and bones came ashore.
The red fish turned back into [Snake Queen], and with a stroke of the [Stone Sword], the mud burst open, revealing a cloud of aquatic plants.
A human figure is faintly visible in the aquatic plants.
The red fish slashed out several more swords, and then the snake tail swept away the aquatic plants, revealing a middle-aged man with a pale face and closed eyes.
Li Yu waved his hand and put [Long-haired Man] and [Snake Ji] into the square pot.
He tied himself in a Taoist bun, took out an old Taoist robe from the [pot], and finally borrowed the pine sword of [Queen Mao].
After doing this, he picked up the pine sword and poked it at the middle-aged man's acupoint.
The man was in pain, screamed "ahh
At first, the man's eyes were glazed. After dozens of breaths, it gradually has a glow.
"Who are you? How do you get trapped in the mud and grass? Li Yu asked.
"I ...... I'm Li Sandpiper, yes, I'm Li Sandpiper, Shaozhou Thorn History Li Sandpiper. The man gradually regained his senses, as if he had finally remembered the past.
Li Yu, who was on the other side, frowned: "Hugh is talking nonsense, Li Tingshi has been in Shaoyang Mansion for half a year. I heard that he was promoted to the director of the church today, but it's not that you, a scarecrow, can impersonate your name. β
When the man heard this, he was stunned on the spot. After a while, his face was frightened and sad and angry, and he asked Li Yu: "Dare to ask Dao Chang, what time and month is it?" β
"September of the first year of the new century." Li Yu replied.
"September?" The man lost his voice and said, "It's been half a year!" β
Li Yu asked him again, "Who are you?" β
The man came back to his senses: "Under the Li Sandpiper......"
Before he finished speaking, Li Yu got up and left.
The man saw that Li Yu was wearing a feather coat, holding a loose sword, with a demeanor and an awe-inspiring appearance, and that he could save himself from the bottom of Dongting Lake, he must be a true man, how could he let him leave.
He threw himself in front of Li Yu and knelt down and begged, "Real people save me!" Real people save me! β
"Get up and speak." Li Yu helped him up, "Poor Dao has rescued you from the bottom of the lake, how can you still say the word 'rescue'?" β
The man bowed deeply, first thanked Li Yu for saving his life, and then told an old story-
The man's name is indeed Li Yan, a native of Dunhuang. Half a year ago, he was ordered to take up his post in Shaozhou.
When I took a boat to Dongting Lake, I saw the lake and mountains, and the beauty was like a picture, so I started to play and set foot on Junshan.
However, as soon as he entered Jun Mountain, he had an epistaxis like a bloody arrow, and fell into the mud and sand.
Dizzy, he only felt his body falling. The other self stood up in the mud and sand.
His look, his dress, and his voice were the same as his own.
In the haze, Li Yan seemed to hear his wife and daughter coming, and heard the servant helping "himself" to leave.
And Li Sandpiper himself is sinking more and more.
It wasn't until the weeds were wrapped up and the sand was sealed that he gradually lost consciousness.
