Chapter 407: Hearing and Rewarding

"I heard what I said before, I just came from the Langzhou beach?" Song You asked the young official.

"Exactly! What's wrong? The young official said strangely, "Sir is also interested in the scenery of Langzhou?" Or does Mr. also want to swim to Langzhou? ”

"We have traveled all over the world, and we have to see everywhere, and after coming down from this Venerable Mountain, we will probably go to Langzhou." Song You smiled slightly, "Since Zuxia has just come back from there, and I heard that Zuxia is a person who loves to be curious about different scenery, I want to inquire about Qixia, what strange scenery and strange rumors are there on the coast of Langzhou and even overseas." ”

"That's the gentleman's right question."

The young official was immediately very proud.

"Oh?"

"I not only love to be curious about strange scenery, but also love to inquire about strange scenery and strange things, and I am not afraid of delaying time. The young official said, "I heard that the ocean is bigger than the land of the Central Plains, and the fishermen and merchants of Langzhou have been floating on the sea for a long time, going back and forth between various large and small islands and sea states. However, if you look at all these wonderful things below, you can't believe them all, and many of them are false, so you have to rely on yourself to discern them. ”

Song You got along with him for a day, talked a lot, knew his preferences, and knew that it was probably rewarding to ask him, but it wasn't until he heard this paragraph, especially the last sentence of this paragraph, that a bright smile bloomed on his face.

I know that I have learned a lot from asking him.

So he said to him: "There are not many people in the world who love to be curious about strange scenery and strange things, but there are not many people who can personally appreciate strange scenery and think about distinguishing the truth from the falsehood of strange things. ”

"Haha!"

This compliment undoubtedly scratched the itch of the young official, and it was the self-pride in his character, so he laughed a few times and asked him, "What does the gentleman want to hear?" ”

"If you want to know what strange scenery rumors are on the coast of Langzhou and overseas, you can do anything regardless of demons, ghosts, gods and demons." Song You arched his hand and said, glancing at the distance again, "I just don't know if I will delay to drink and talk with my friends over there." ”

"Nothing!"

The young official waved his hand, as if he didn't care, and sat down.

"The seaside of Langzhou is not as good as Yangzhou, but a remote and wild place, if Mr. wants to go over, it is best to buy all the things you want to buy in advance, so as not to find a place to spend money there. There are naturally many legends of demons and monsters in this kind of place, and there are also gods on the sea, such as two hundred miles overseas in Langzhou, there is a real dragon entrenched, and many people have seen it with their own eyes. The young official said, "But if you want to talk about the most bizarre legend, I don't know what others think, and I don't know what Mr. thinks, anyway, I have heard it below, but it must belong to the Lilliputian country on the sea of Nacang County." ”

"Lilliputia?"

"Legend has it that there is a small island in the sea of Cangjun, the island is very small, the small island on the cangjun gazetteer, but where there is a record, there is a name and a surname, no matter how small it is, it is far larger than this small island. And this small island has no fixed place, it seems that it will drift at will on the sea of Cangjun, or sometimes appear and disappear, this small island is the rumored Lilliputian country. The young official paused, "Legend has it that in this Lilliputian country, everyone is only the size of a palm, probably just like a mouse, if an outsider occasionally strays in, it will also become smaller, and it will return to its original state when it leaves the island, but except for people, no other animals will change." ”

"Sounds amazing."

"Not really! It is said that in that place, a crab can kill a person, and a small fish is enough for many people to eat! The young official grinned and spoke with relish, "According to me, what kind of demons and monsters on the sea, no matter how effective the gods offered by the local earth gods, they are not as magical as this Lilliputian country, even if it is a real dragon, there is a ground dragon in Fengzhou in front of it, I heard that there are people who live in the south of Fengzhou who saw a huge dragon head and dragon tail on the top of the mountain, but how can there be a country that can make people smaller and strange?" ”

"It's amazing." Song You nodded, and asked again, "Listening to the footsteps, it seems that many people have gone up?" ”

"Haha! Sir is really a fellow believer in my path! ”

The young official immediately stroked his palms and laughed when he heard it, and then said to him: "When I first heard the rumors, in addition to being surprised, my first thought was not to believe it, but also to ask for the truth, so I visited many places, but found that there are similar rumors in many places along the coast of Langzhou, even if there are places that are not interconnected, there are also similar rumors, there are not many people who have inadvertently been to Lilliputian, and there are even people who have intermarried with the people above after arriving in Lilliputian, leaving heirs, and they have all brought them back, and they have changed back to their original size. ”

"How much is it true or false?"

"Naturally, some people are hearsay, or nonsense, but there are also people who don't sound like they are telling a lie." The young official paused, "At least many details can be corroborated by each other in some fishing villages that are not interconnected, and even in the rumors of fishing villages in different counties. ”

"If you can write a biography of strange mountains and rivers, it will be passed down through the ages." Song You said to him.

"Haha, there's no such style in the bottom."

"Have you gone to the sea to find the Lilliputian Kingdom?"

"Naturally, I went. The sea dragon king on the sea has a great temper, and he does not like to be disturbed, and if he is disturbed, he will often set off huge waves and overturn ships, and he will naturally not dare to look for them. But this Lilliputian country rarely heard of any danger, so naturally he wanted to look for it. "The young official has some regrets" is just that he is not fortunate enough to be in the lower fate, and he has been adrift at sea for half a month, and he has not been able to find it. ”

"If I want to go, where should I look?"

"Sir is really interested!"

"It's so bizarre, it's natural to be interested." Song You replied truthfully.

"In this case, I will go to Lan'an County, Cang County." The young official thought for a moment before saying, "Although that place is not necessarily the closest to the place where Lilliputian is often encountered, it is relatively prosperous, and it is more convenient to buy a boat to go to sea or borrow a boat to go to sea from there, and there are many rumors there, if the gentleman still wants to inquire about any details, it is better to inquire about it." ”

"Got it."

"I heard that there are not only Lilliputians overseas, but also Yaksha countries, and what other demon countries, there are many, some are dangerous, some are interesting, and some sound like they are made up by the locals. However, these sound nothing more than demons and monsters, and they are not as bizarre as Lilliputia. The young official said, glancing to the side, "Oh, sir, your boy has come back from collecting firewood." ”

"She has always been diligent and takes good care of me."

Song You also followed his gaze.

The little girl in the tricolor dress came over with a large bundle of firewood, staring at the young officials with some doubts, and wondering what they were talking about so energetically, and when she got closer, she heard this.

So he remained silent, restrained his expression, looked at his nose and nose, looked at his heart, walked over and put down the firewood, skillfully set up the shelf, and took out two ordinary stones from his arms, approached the firewood and hit each other.

At the same time, he secretly blew into the fire.

"Hoo ......"

"Canopy ......"

Chai's fire suddenly ignited.

Song You looked funny, and couldn't help but praise again: "Sanhua Niangniang is really smart......"

The young officials were stunned.

I've never seen anyone's flint and steel look like this, I've never seen anyone who doesn't use velvet to light a lighter, and I've never seen anyone who can burn so big with a flame in just a moment.

But he didn't say anything.

Sanhua Niangniang still didn't say a word, just sat down next to the Taoist priest, in order to be worthy of the Taoist priest's praise just now, and in order to maintain her diligence and take care of people's cats, she has now turned into an emotionless work machine, ignoring what is going on outside the window, and only cooking on the fire.

"It's warmer now." Song You said with a smile to the young official.

"Yes...... yes......"

"If you're not in a hurry to go back and reunite with your friends, let's talk about other strange legends outside Langzhou, such as those strange sea kingdoms, or the real dragon." Song You looked at Sanhua Niangniang cooking rice with his spare eyes, and said to the young official, "There will be a reward in the future." ”

"Talking to Mr. is very pleasant, since it is a pleasant thing, how can there be any reward?"

The young official leaned on the fire, and while staring at Sanhua Niangniang's movements, he said: "I haven't looked for that sea dragon king, I don't dare to look for it, but once Langzhou arrives at the seaside, there are many legends of this sea dragon king, some say that he is a hundred feet long, and some say that he is a thousand feet long, and the legendary real dragon looks the same, very amazing......

The flames crackled.

It's also a shelter from the wind, and it's really cool at night on the mountain in summer, but you can light a fire, even if it's a distance, you don't feel cold.

The young official couldn't stop talking about it, not only felt that this Taoist surnamed Song was like a fairy master, but also felt that he was extremely close to him, and it was interesting to talk about it, so it was naturally easy to forget the time.

So from the "real dragon" overseas in Langzhou, he has been talking about the many "countries" on the sea, and the many demons on the seaside, and the gods that the local people believe in, Song You rarely responds, but every time he responds, the young officials must feel that it is like finding a soulmate - in fact, it is not Song You who deliberately does this, but Song You can fully understand him, and he is also a similar person.

Before you know it, the night is getting deep.

There were two small pots, one large and one small, on the fire in front of them, and a rich aroma was already emerging.

Someone over there came to call the young official.

"Sir, I have to go."

"The gruel is already boiled and hot, won't you eat a bowl with us?" Song You asked.

"Haha......"

The young official raised his head and laughed, neither shirking nor staying, but said, "I'll go over there first and deal with it, and then come over with my own bowl and ask the gentleman for a bowl...... It is a blessing to have a bowl of freshly boiled hot porridge on this mountain. ”

"It's fine."

Song You also paused, looked left and right, and took advantage of no one, so he said to the young official: "I have heard a lot of strange things from my mouth, which are more reliable than what I heard from others. ”

"Why do you have to say that, sir?"

"I like to see strange things to see, and I also like to explore the truth and falsehood, in order to solve my curiosity, if you want to see the gods ascend to the sky with your own eyes, and want to know which of the tourists who go up the mountain today are pretending to be immortals, then you have to make sure that you are awake before dawn." Song You smiled slightly, and added, "Before the immortals ascend to the sky, mortals will sleep, but if you can take the dew that has just formed tonight on the blades of grass under your feet, you can stay awake." ”

After hearing this, the young official's eyes suddenly widened, and he asked, "Sir is really a fairy?" ”

He was also a little incredulous.

Because since today, in the face of this Taoist, he doesn't know how many times he has doubted and how many times he has overturned it.

"No, I'm just a mortal Taoist, just like my feet, come to this Venerable Mountain to watch the immortals ascend to the sky." Song You replied truthfully, "It's just that I need to do more Taoism in the future, and I have just sat here for half an afternoon, and I have already seen through the mystery." ”

"Sir, what a master!"

"Please don't tell anyone." Song You said, "Please also don't follow the example of that Li Gong and don't believe in his words." ”

"Definitely!"

The young official's expression became solemn, and he bowed deeply to him, and then he took his leave and left, his steps hurried.

Thanks to the "Warm Sun 1314" bigwig's Silver Alliance, bow and show your chest!
