"Xiao Jianghan can already stand up, but he still can't walk." Sanhua Niangniang said, not forgetting to make up her mind, "Stupid man." ”

"Sanhua Niangniang has to become a human and often walks in front of her, and when she sees it, she can follow and learn. If Sanhua Niangniang often turns into a cat and crawls around in front of her, she will naturally learn to climb. ”

"That swallow often flies in front of her, will she learn to fly?"

"Sanhua Niangniang Mo Gang."

"Meow? What's meow? ”

"Nothing."

"Mo Gang!"

"I mean, Xiao Jianghan has no wings, how can he learn to fly? Even if you want to learn, you can't help it. Song You faced her clear eyes and regained patience, "But she and Sanhua Niangniang both have hands and feet, so naturally they will learn from Sanhua Niangniang." ”

Sanhua Cat raised her head high and looked at him: "But Sanhua Niangniang has also become a human and walks around." ”

"It's just that she's not learning fast enough."

"Stupid!"

"Don't say that, children need a little more encouragement. The more encouragement, the stronger the motivation of the child. The Taoist got up and put on his shoes, rubbed the cat's head and said.

“？”

Hearing this, the cat looked stunned.

He looked up at him seriously, and his eyes became a little more serious for a while.

Of course, he is still an honest man, and he is not good at this. Unless someone like Sanhua Niangniang is very smart and powerful, he can boast truthfully, as for Xiao Jianghan, I am afraid it will be difficult to pretend to boast about her, and it will be even more difficult to treat her like Sanhua Niangniang. Song You said sincerely, "In this way, I have to hand it over to Sanhua Niangniang to do it for me." ”

“……”

The cat's eyes gradually recovered.

"This matter is very important, please don't forget it." Song You said to her.

"Okay!"

"Now that Xiao Jianghan has learned to stand, let's measure her height." The Taoist said.

“！”

The cat's eyes suddenly lit up, and she came to the spirit, even if it was a cat face, she was happy, and ran around the feet of the Taoist with small steps, so that people were always worried that they would step on her, and she said happily: "When you didn't come back, Sanhua Niangniang wanted to measure how high she was, just thought, you came back!" ”

"Really?"

"That's right!" The cat's voice was excited, "Sanhua Niangniang has thought about it, use Sanhua Niangniang's small bamboo cane to measure her, and when she grows to the same height as Sanhua Niangniang's small bamboo cane, she doesn't need to grow anymore!" ”

Children are always happy and proud to think the same as adults they identify.

Now it seems that the same is true of Sanhua Niangniang.

"Now it seems that Sanhua Niangniang actually thought of me in front of me." The Taoist said with a smile.

"I just thought!"

"That's in front of me, too."

“！”

Immediately, the Taoist took her small bamboo cane.

This bamboo cane is thin, less than half a person high, the Sanhua Niangniang used it appropriately, but now in her hands, it can no longer be used as a cane, it can only be used as a stick and fishing rod, and it is like a small bamboo strip in the hands of the Taoist, which is very lightweight.

“……”

The Taoist shook his head and didn't say anything, just coaxed Xiao Jiang Han over and asked her to stand against the wall, and Sanhua Niangniang turned into a human form and helped her up, telling her to stand as straight as possible.

The Taoist put the bamboo cane against the wall, gestured at the top of Xiao Jianghan's head, looked down at her body, roughly counted the places where she didn't stand straight, and then scratched the bamboo cane with his fingernails.

The thin bamboo cane suddenly had an extra mark on it.

"It's not that high!"

Sanhua Niangniang said solemnly.

"Xiao Jianghan just learned to stand, he hasn't stood up straight yet, and after a few days, he will stand up straight, and he will be so tall."

"yes......"

The Taoist looked at her expression, shook his head and smiled, but didn't say anything.

Children at this age grow up fast, Xiao Jianghan follows Sanhua Niangniang and himself, can get aura, is healthy, and eats well, so he naturally grows faster.

I don't know how long this bamboo cane will last.

"Alas, unconsciously, it's the beginning of the tenth year of Da'an." The Taoist sighed, he just woke up, although it was afternoon, his spirit was very full, and he didn't have any sleepiness, "Let's clean up, you can rest tonight, just meditate, and tomorrow morning, we will go back to Yizhou." ”

"Back to Yizhou!"

"Xiao Jianghan should have been born in the spring and summer of last year, but since she was picked up by Heavy Snow, let's count the day of Heavy Snow as her birthday."

"Okay!"

“……”

The Taoist sat cross-legged, closing his eyes to the past.

Before you know it, it's been almost twenty years.

The sound of a cat grinding its claws sounded in her ears, and then there was a lighter and thinner sound, it seemed that Xiao Jianghan was learning her to grind her claws, grabbing the wooden board with her hands to play.

Apprentices have their own apprentice blessings......

The Taoist comforted himself.

What's more, this baby girl is still young, she can only see the root bone qualifications, and some of her nature is also predestined, but now she can't see it, she will have to wait a few years, she will grow up, and she can see that she is old, so she can decide whether to accept her as an apprentice, and she will inherit the inheritance of Fulongguan.

Probably it won't be bad.

……

Outside Fuguang County, by the Yuqu River.

The Taoist stood on the shore and asked the boatman: "If you go down, it may lead to the Yin River?" ”

"The Yuqu River flows into the Yin River."

"It seems that the Yinjiang River can also lead to the Liujiang River?"

"There is also a meeting place between the Yinjiang River and the Liujiang River, but the villain can't get there, at most he can take Mr. into the Yinjiang River, where does Mr. want to go?" The boatman asked him.

"I want to go to Yizhou."

"Yizhou?" The boatman frowned, as if he didn't know much about it, and asked him, "Yizhou is at the border with Xuzhou?" ”

"Exactly."

"If the gentleman wants to take the waterway, he has to go down the river from here, flow into the Yinjiang River, and then take the Yinjiang River to the Liujiang River, and see how the Liujiang River goes to Yizhou." The boatman saw that he was a Taoist, and he was accompanied by a little Taoist boy and a baby girl, and his tone was also very friendly, "This goes down the Yinjiang River, if the guest officer wants to go, the three of them can sit on the villain's canopy boat, and then set off, but if someone beckons to stop the boat at the ferry on the road, you have to bring two more people, one is three hundred yuan, and three guest officers will charge five hundred yuan." ”

“……”

The Taoist thought about it in his heart.

Liujiang is not through Yizhou, the Yizhou basin is mountainous, the road is difficult, the waterway is not developed, it is not easy to go to Yizhou by waterway from here, you can only go to Xuzhou, and then take the land route into Yizhou.

I've been there almost once before.

The price is also fair.

Now that the world is becoming more and more chaotic, business is difficult to do, and waterways are often risky, since others have made big profits, Song You will no longer bargain.

"Thank you."

"Don't be polite, sir, be careful when you get on board."

The Taoist stepped onto the boat, and the girl behind him, carrying the baby girl, also jumped up from the shore, which made the boatman panic, but the bow of the boat did not shake at all.

"Be careful."

The boatman laughed, then straightened up, stretched his neck to look, and saw that there was no one else to go at the ferry, and no one was coming on the road behind, so he propped up the shore with his oars and went along the river.

"Let's go~~"

A long sound, drifting in the wind.

The same is true of the boats, which sail with the wind and the water, heading straight for the Yinjiang River.

It's a couple of days to go.

Sanhua Niangniang fished along the way, caught fish and shrimp and boiled into porridge, as a meal for everyone on the boat, Xiao Jianghan except for the first day of some seasickness, slept all day, and then jumped alive, often crawling around on the boat, ran to the side of the boat to find Sanhua Niangniang to play, babbling in the mouth, fell off the boat several times, did not fall into the water, and was caught by Sanhua Niangniang.

The boatman is going to be scared to death.

Two days were sunny and two days rainy.

The light rain can only wet the plank, adding a bit of wetness to the plank, wrinkling the surface of the river, while the heavy rain can make a sound of the boat, the sound is dull, there will be water seeping in, but it also has a flavor.

The spring water is blue in the sky, and the boat is painted to listen to the rain.

Some people came on the boat one after another, most of them just walked for a short time, and they landed on the shore in less than a day, and most of them would chat with him because Song You was wearing a Taoist robe, and ask some fairies and demons about divination.

After two days of rain, the sky cleared again.

"Ah......h

The Taoist couldn't help but sigh, and he was relaxed for nothing.

Twenty years of walking are coming to an end, and there is only one heart like an arrow in my heart.

The breeze is tens of thousands of miles, and the river is full of people.

……

It took about seven days to reach the Yinjiang River.

There is a large wharf at the confluence of the Yuqu River and the Yinjiang River, because many boatmen only run their own familiar water system, so many boats dock here for transit, which is quite lively.

The Taoist changed ships and headed for Liujiang again.

This time it was still a pun boat, there were two fixed guests on the boat, when Song You and his party arrived, they were already on the boat, the boatman was even more greedy, after Song You arrived, he wanted to wait for one more guest at the dock before leaving, and was urged by the two to reluctantly leave the shore.

The two men were a young scholar and a middle-aged scholar.

The book grew handsome, quite talkative, Song You arrived at the bow of the boat to talk with the middle-aged scholars, after Song You arrived, his eyes lit up, he reported his name, invited him to chat with them, Song You only thought that he had brought a baby girl and had to take care of it, he did not go over immediately, only listened to them in the cabin.

The two were talking about the demons and ghosts in the world.

"I came from Yangjiang, Yangzhou, there are fewer demons and ghosts over there, I heard that there is a demon killer, surnamed Huo, who is quite a martial artist, good at subduing demons and eliminating demons, so as to keep a peaceful party." The young scholar and the middle-aged scholar said, their eyes shining, "If you want to say that the source of this Huo Daxia's ability to slay demons and demons is a wonderful thing." ”

"Oh? How is the Singular Method? ”

The middle-aged scholar also showed concern.

"That was more than ten years ago, it is said that there was a god walking in Yangzhou, passing through Yangdu ......"

The young scholar told how Huo Erniu had the audacity to steal the treasures of the immortals, how the immortals tested him, and finally gave him the treasures.

Although the angle is different, and the rumors have been different from the truth for a long time, but in his mouth, it seems to be more exciting than the real thing.

The Taoist listened silently, smiling all over his face.

Sanhua Niangniang sat on the stern of the boat to fish, and also turned around, staring at the scholar without blinking.

Only Xiao Jianghan crawled around in the cabin.

"That mountain was originally nameless, but now because Huo Daxia picked up a bamboo cane there, it also has a name, called Picking Up Stick Mountain." The young scholar said, "Because of this, this Huo Erniu, I'm afraid that he will also leave his name in the history of the Qing Dynasty, hundreds of years later." ”

"What many palace nobles can't do, he actually let him do it with a splash."

"This kind of immortal fate is wonderful."

"Who's to say it's not......"

"Huh! Ling Gong is from Changjing, Changjing is the imperial capital, and there are a lot of strange things to come, right? ”

"Ling is just from a small county around Changjing, a few hundred miles away from Changjing, and Ling is not very clear about the things in Changjing City, even if he has heard of it, I am afraid that the virtuous brother has already heard of it." The middle-aged scholar patted his knee and said to him, "If you want to say something, there is also one thing, which is widely spread and interesting." ”

"I want to hear about it."

The young scholar suddenly showed an expression of interest.
