Guangling, Binhai.

……

On the Huangjian Creek across Guangling, the Huangzhu reeds are dense, dense as a forest, and in the cold, a seam and mending Huo Tongjiao emerges from the reeds, staggers across the water, and stops by the stream.

As soon as the boatman had stopped the boat, a woman came out of the canopy, holding Donnie Yen, apparently preparing to make a fire for cooking.

"Fishing boats, fishing boats at dusk, my family sells fish for a living, and I don't know how to make money in my life. This year, a boat tax will be levied, and 1,000 fishing rods will be released for each boat......"

On the ground, the familiar sound of nursery rhymes came from the bamboo forest on the shore.

The boatman subconsciously looked up, and saw a young Taoist in a cyan robe, humming a nursery rhyme, slowly coming slowly.

When the Taoist priest saw the boatman, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he raised his hand and shouted:

"Boatman, can you still carry passengers?"

As he spoke, he was already trotting in.

The boatman and the woman who was about to make a fire to cook looked at each other, and the woman cautiously said, "Where is Master Dao going?" ”

"By the sea, I heard that it is easy to go east along the Huangjian Creek, and the poor road has driven more than ten miles of mountain roads, but it can be regarded as meeting the boatman."

The Taoist said, stretched out his hand into his arms, and took out a hanging copper coin: "This hanging money, is it enough for the ship?" ”

The boatman and the woman looked at each other, and the woman put down Donnie Yen, waved her hand again and again:

"No, no, it's a coincidence, we're preparing to return, and the empty ship is also running, so it's good that the captain doesn't dislike the simple ship."

"Oops, thank you boatman! Hey, this is preparing for a fire to cook? ”

"Yes, yes! The Taoist chief has used rice, and he does not dislike eating together. ”

"Oh, that's embarrassing, take this hanging money."

The Taoist looked embarrassed, pushed back, paid the fare, and stayed.

After some talking, I learned that this is a salt delivery ship, which specially sends sea salt into the hinterland of Guangling, and now it is sending salt and preparing to return.

Fang just touched a few mussels in the reeds, ready to boil fresh soup to warm his body.

The cooking utensils for boiling the soup, only a clay pot, are set on the stones.

The clay pot was filled with clear river water scooped from the water tank, a few mussels were finely chopped, and a handful of unknown wild vegetables were thrown on, and the umami had already penetrated the nose.

Maybe it's because of the arrival of the Taoist.

The boatman also took a salted fish from the stern, chopped it and threw it in, added spices such as sea pepper and peppercorns, cooked it over high heat, and a pot of chowder fresh soup was freshly baked.

The Taoist holds the open-mouth pottery bowl, blows and drinks at the same time, and occasionally drinks a mouthful of chewy river mussel meat, which has a unique taste.

After eating, the boatman sailed down the river.

The Taoist sat on the bow of the boat, chatted with the boatman, and talked about the local customs in a few words.

The boat is lonely, and the boatman is also quite enthusiastic, and he doesn't need to bother to find a conversation, and he has already talked eloquently.

Bamboo, grass and trees, snake-bellied beasts, sea salt fish...... It's a matter of everything.

The old woman sat in the canopy, arranging the fishing nets, and chatting a few words from time to time, and the lonely fishing boat was full of interest for a while.

Halfway through the boat, the Taoist people from afar were at the end of the waterway, towering over the green hills, and saw a majestic treasure hall.

"Hey, what is this palace? Look at the end is majestic. ”

"This is the Temple of the Five Emperors, and it is very effective!"

"Oh?"

"Don't hide it, there is a big demon kappa in Huangjian Creek, often teasing the passing boatmen, there is no wind and no waves, and the water surface becomes a whirlpool, don't say that our small boat, that is, the official boat, has to spin in place."

"And this?"

"Isn't it? However, it is also simple to encounter this matter, call the name of the Emperor Wuxian, and make sure that it is okay. Afterwards, burn pillar incense to the temple of the Great Emperor of Wuxian, repay a wish, and it will be done. ”

"Tsk, it seems that the Emperor Wuxian has real skills!"

As he spoke, there was no wind or waves on the water, and ripples rippled around the ship, and the hull swayed from side to side.

"Oh, look at my mouth!"

The boatman was shocked when he saw this, slapped himself in the face, and quickly knelt on the bow of the boat and prayed again and again.

For a while, he read the name of the Five Emperors;

After a while, he begged for mercy from the big demon kappa.

Strange to say, the boatman's prayer did not take long for the water to calm down.

The boat sailed out of this section of water without any problems.

The Taoist sat on the bow of the boat, silent, turned his head to look at the Wuxian Great Emperor Temple that fell behind him, and shook his head gently.

After the "kappa" interrupted, the boatman talked a lot, and seemed to be silent.

Fortunately, at this time, it is going down the river, and thousands of miles of Guangling will be returned in one day.

As the sun sets, the air becomes more and more humid, and the smell of the sea comes to your face.

When the ship circled a hill, the eyes were full of gold.

The setting sun illuminates half of the sky and half of the ocean.

The Taoist boy Kong relaxed, quietly watching this scene.

This was the first time he had seen the sea in this world, and his heart was faintly touched, but more than that, it was shocking.

"Dao Chief, get to the shore!"

The sun was half sinking, the ship docked, and the Taoist thanked him and stepped into the seaside fishing village.

"Dao Friendly Yaxing!"

A greeting came, and the Taoist followed the prestige, and saw a handsome young Taoist standing on the shore, making a salute.

- This person is the Tianqian National Teacher.

"Poor Dao flies around all day long, but I'm afraid that after a long time, I will forget my heart." Mo Chuan returned the salute.

"Really? In that case, why did you let go of the fish essence in the stream today? This is not in line with the way of Taoist friends to kill and protect life. Tianqian Guoshi asked with a smile.

"Nursing students only kill, that Wuxian Great Emperor Temple knows a lot of proportions, what do you do when you kill them? If a more ruthless character comes, won't it be a loss to the people? Mo Chuan said casually, raised his feet and walked towards the beach.

"Daoyou's words are wrong!"

"Oh? Please also ask Taoist friends to teach me. ”

"As the saying goes, don't take the good as small and do nothing, and don't take the evil as small. No matter how the carp spirit justifies, it is doing evil after all, and only killing it is the right way. "Tianqian Guoshi's face was murderous.

"Guangling Dharma is prosperous, Huangjian Creek is the main road of sea salt, if the carp essence is dead, there will be Wang Bajing, is it difficult for Taoist friends to slaughter the temple of the Great Emperor of Wuxian, and even the Guangling Dharma?" Mo Chuan asked rhetorically.

"That's why the poor Dao wants to create the Daolu Division! Only by establishing a heart for heaven and earth and a life for the people can we open peace for all generations. ”

Tianqian Guoshi's tone was calm, as if he was sharpening his own way with the way of Mo Chuan.

Mo Chuan stopped and looked at the sea in front of him with a calm face.

I saw that the Huangjian Creek, which gathers the water of the hundred rivers of Guangling, rolls up the rolling turbid sediment and rushes into the sea, but it does not dissolve in the sea.

On the coastline, a clear yin and yang line is formed.

On one side is the blue sea, and on the other side is the muddy Yellow River.

Seeing that Mo Chuan was silent, Tianqian Guoshi followed his gaze again, although he had already seen and heard about it, but at this moment, there were some ripples in his heart.

The clear line seemed to ridicule his inconsiderability.

"The lampstand does not shine on itself, and the poor road ......"

Tianqian Guoshi laughed at himself, and was about to speak, but he didn't want to be interrupted by Mo Chuan.

"Daoyou Hongyuan, poor Dao admires it! Poor Dao is timid, and he doesn't dare to have this grand wish, but he also knows that the way of Taoist friends is precious! It is said that the deer does not choose the sound when he dies. Now that the Daolu Division has existed in name only, and Daoyou is still willing to hide, it seems that the matter of Dongtian has been completed? ”

Mo Chuan turned his head to look at the Tianqian National Master and asked.

"The way of the poor road, those who know it are not ignorant and sarcastic, only the Taoist friends are equally observant, and the clear mind is insightful, not reserved, and the poor road is admired."

Tianqian Guoshi looked approving, and then bowed his head and said: "That's right, the matter of the cave has been negotiated, I don't know where you want to place the Xuling Cave Heaven?" ”

Mo Chuan had been prepared when he heard this, and raised his chin: "This is it." ”

Tianqian Guoshi was stunned and followed the prestige, and in addition to the sea in front of him, there was only the sea.
