Chapter 89: It doesn't matter if you're a god or not

"Genting Mountain, Genting Mountain, is high to the edge of the clouds. Unless it's a sunny day, the summit is always covered in clouds. The shopkeeper said, "There are four seasons in Genting Mountain, spring, summer, autumn and winter, sir, don't look at it is the hottest time of the year, and when you get to Genting Mountain, I'm afraid you have to wear a jacket." ”

"The shop drinks tea."

"Don't drink it, don't drink it, Mr. bought the tea from the shop, how can I drink it?"

"Is there snow on the top of the mountain?"

"There is snow in winter."

"Is there grass?"

"Grow, little grass."

"That's not very high, either."

"Why not? How can there be a higher mountain in this Pingzhou than Genting Mountain? "But if the gentleman said that if the mountains have snow all year round, they may not be that high." But our Genting Mountain is not something that anyone can climb. ”

"Is there a way to the top of the mountain?"

"There is a way, see if you dare to go."

"How?"

"Humph! Let's just say that in the four seasons of this year, there are countless people who come to Genting Mountain to look for immortals, but most of them just look at the mirror island lake at the foot of the mountain. Okay, climb halfway up the mountain and come down. Further up is the inhabited deep mountains and old forests, the road is difficult to walk, the beasts are fierce, and they have to cross the cliff, how can ordinary people have that courage? The shopkeeper scoffed, "It's nice to have one person climb to the top every day." ”

"Have you ever been there?"

"This ......"

"Is the scenery of Jingdao Lake good?"

"Good! It's so good! But it also needs good weather, bad weather is foggy ......"

"Who has ever found a god in the mountains?"

"That's a lot to hear......"

The shopkeeper began to talk to him intermittently.

Song You listened quietly and did not express his opinion.

……

After staying here for two days, the store can only buy beef.

Half of it was cut into raw meat slices, half of it was blanched with water, Song You went to buy two small fish, still one cooked, one raw sliced, and asked the store to stew a chicken to celebrate Sanhua Niangniang's birthday.

The three-flowered cat eats very satisfied.

At night, Song You was lying on the bed, the three-flowered cat was still nesting at his feet, and in the corner of the outer bed, the kitten couldn't help but turn his head to look at him and asked:

"When is the next beginning of autumn?"

Song You opened his eyes, it was pure darkness in front of him, he couldn't see anything, he didn't sleep and didn't think about anything, he only replied in a low voice when he heard the words:

"Another year."

"Another year."

"At that time, Sanhua Niangniang was a year older."

"It's a year older."

"Maybe we will go to the sea in the future, and Sanhua Niangniang's autumn can be spent by the sea." Song You whispered, afraid of waking up the night, "Sanhua Niangniang will probably like it." ”

"I don't know what the sea is."

"It's a big, big lake, big, bigger, bigger than all the places Sanhua Niangniang has walked combined, and maybe bigger than all the land combined."

Maybe it's sleepy, maybe it's the environment is too quiet, whether it's a cat or a Taoist, the voice is very small, light and slow, lazy and lazy, like no strength, talking like this, but it makes people feel very quiet.

"There are more creatures in the sea than on land, and the fish that can be eaten on the beach alone may be more than the insects that Sanhua Niangniang has seen since childhood, and there are shrimp that are bigger than Sanhua Niangniang, and there are crabs as big as washbasins, and there are large shells......"

"Crabs have no meat!"

"It's just that there's no meat in the creek."

"Can you eat that?"

"Most of them can be eaten."

"What else?"

"The seaside is full of sand, thin, thick, and soft to step on, and Sanhua Niangniang can't dig it to the end. There are also many small crabs in the sand, and if you are lucky, you can pick up edible shells, fish washed up by the waves, shrimp, and other things that can be eaten. ”

"Can you just pick it up?"

"Almost."

“……”

The eyes of the three-flowered cat were wide open in the dark, and there was already yearning in her expression.

Maybe tonight she will have a dream, in the dream there will be an imaginary lake, dreaming of countless kinds of imaginary different fish, nature and the real sea are different from the sea fish, but it is the sea in her dream that belongs only tonight, the fish in her dream.

"Sleep, I'll go to Jingdao Lake tomorrow."

"Oh......"

A man and a cat have fallen silent.

The night here is really silent, there is really no sound at all, the silence is pure, and the darkness is deep.

Wake up the next day and set off early.

100 miles, one day.

At this time, it was hot and the sun was scorching, although Song You had to wear a hat, his heart was not hot because of this, but stared at the sun, still not slow, and he never slowed down his steps. The world under the scorching sun is particularly bright and dazzling, and the Taoist walks with a cane, and when he arrives at the Jingdao Lake, the sky gradually darkens and cools, and he realizes that it is already dusk.

The evening breeze blows, carrying the moisture and cooling the whole body.

"Are we there?"

"Maybe."

Song You walked along the lakeside road.

A horse followed him.

Jingdao Lake at dusk may not be the same as during the day, but it has another beauty of its own, and it lives up to the praise of the store.

I saw that the lake was so wide that it could not be seen, and the surface of the lake was as quiet as a mirror, but there were countless islands of all sizes, and the horizon had gradually turned reddish-purple, and all the heavenly light was reflected in the water. And a few points of starlight can be faintly seen in the distance, I don't know which elegant person, in the middle of the lake at night, it is really leisurely.

The lake is overgrown with reeds, and the road is also lined with reeds, and in this autumn season, the reeds pull out snow-white ears, and when the evening breeze blows, they all fall in one direction.

Where does this look like the world?

It's clearly a world of wind.

Song You was not in a hurry to find a ferry and accommodation, he only led the horse Xu Xing, turning his head to look at the dusk and the direction of the lake as he walked, without saying a word, with this picture in his eyes, but his heart went to a more open place.

Listen to the wind, and wait for the night to fall.

"Is this what you do?"

Suddenly, I thought of the words of the old Taoist priest.

Further on, the sky is getting darker and darker, the sky is getting redder and redder, the mountains and the glow are all reflected in the mirror lake, and the heart is getting quieter and quieter.

I don't know when there were fireflies in the night sky.

At first, it was only three or two o'clock, and then every minute of the night fell, the fluorescence became more and more, and in a trance, they were all around, innumerable, flying freely in the dark.

The three-flowered cat was also attracted, ran to the front, and jumped up and down to catch it with its paws.

"Don't catch Sanhua Niangniang."

"Why?"

"It's beautiful."

"It's edible."

"Please, Sanhua Niang."

"You like it?"

"yes."

"Hmm......"

The three-flowered cat fell into deep thought.

"Okay then."

The cat shook its head and walked back.

The sky was full of stars, and the fireflies flew at night, as if the starlight had fallen to the ground. I don't know if it was starlight or fluorescence, but I could barely see the road by the lake, and slowly walked along this road, and gradually saw a field of lights gathered by the lake at the ferry.

As soon as the horse's bell approached, there was the sound of water.

A middle-aged boatman came ashore from the boat, carrying a lamp to illuminate it, and held it high.

"Is it a gentleman?"

"Yes."

"Sir, are you going to the bottom of Genting Mountain?"

"Exactly."

"It's too late, we have to take a boat tomorrow morning." "But if the gentleman is willing to pay a little more, he can stay on the boat tonight, and the villain can take him to the middle of the lake." ”

"What do you do in the middle of the lake at night?"

"Mr. I don't know, our mirror island lake is as smooth as a mirror, even if there is a wind, it rarely sets off waves, many nobles feel magical, and they like it very much, whether it is morning or afternoon, day or night, there are many people who rent boats and boat on the lake, each with its own scenery."

"The light in the middle of the boat ......"

"It's all!"

"Horses, possibly?"

"Oh, I'm really sorry, there's no boat to get on at this time, we are all melon skin boats, small canopy boats."

"Then can I rent a boat tonight, go to the middle of the lake for a night's sleep, and come back tomorrow?"

"But yes, but where is the horse?"

"Just leave it on the shore."

"I'm afraid I'm going to lose it!"

"Don't be afraid."

"Although Mr. is just going to the center of the lake, but come back tomorrow morning, this time to come, it is also a trip, it takes an hour to go to the center ......of the lake alone, so late, and no one can be on the same boat," the boatman thought for a while, "The villain is not good at asking in front of a gentleman, so he will charge Mr. fifty yuan." ”

"Okay."

The boatman pulled the boat over, and watched the gentleman unload the quilt from the back of the horse, and spoke to the horse, asking him to wait for him by the lake for the night, and eat grass at will.

Then the gentleman came out of the boat and brought a cat with him.

"Let's go, boathouse."

"Okay!"

As soon as the oars were propped up, the boat left the shore.

In the wind, there is a little more sound of water.

As soon as it got dark this night, it was really difficult to distinguish whether it was the sky above or the sky below, in short, there was a glow in the sky, and there was also a glow in the lake, and there were countless stars in the world, and there were countless stars in the lake, but the boat gradually rowed over the lake, and the stars below were wrinkled.

Song You sat on the bow of the boat, quietly blowing the night breeze, enjoying the night scenery, and chatting with the boatman.

Knowing that there are gods in this lake, only then can the surface of the lake be protected from wrinkles by the wind, and the level is like a mirror. I also know that there are 791 islands in this lake, most of which are very small, and when you look at it during the day, you can see the blue water and thousands of islands. I also know that there are hundreds of large and small villages on the lakeside, most of which believe in the frog god, because they feel that it is resurrected in the spring, and it is very auspicious to have many children and many blessings.

"It's in the middle of the lake."

"It's hard work."

"Where, Where, ......"

Song You looked not far away.

I could vaguely see that there were other boats in the middle of the lake, some of them were still lit, some of them were already dark, and some of them were lit by fires, and I don't know what they were roasting or boiling. The one that is close to the most lively, there is a faint sound of pipa and the sound of people making wine orders, I don't know where the famous people come from, drinking and having fun here, very happy.

The lake is cool and the heart is peaceful.

Gradually, all the light on the lake was extinguished, and only this mirror lake reflected the bright galaxy, and when the wind blew the boat, a ripple would be reflected in the mirror, and only then would it look like a lake.

Song You was still sitting on the bow of the boat, looking at the galaxy.

The cat crawled beside him, looking east and west.

If you are a god or not, it doesn't seem to matter.
