Chapter 28: Dragon King
Because of the Dragon King Temple Fair, Lingzhou City is not the Mid-Autumn Festival moonlit night, but the night of August 18 in Lingzhou City every year from August 15 to 18.
On this night, the boats on the river were brightly lit, and the gates of Lingzhou City would not be closed at night, and the excitement and joy would continue all night until the morning of August 19.
It is now the morning of the 18th, and the people who should have come to participate in the temple fair and the tide watching, the streets are crowded, the hawkers are shouting loudly, and the lion and dragon dance procession walks over, beating gongs and drums along the way, and it is very lively.
And on this day, there are many girls dressed up in flowers, with bursts of incense, walking through the crowd.
In fact, some of the girls in it are all Qinglou women, and at night, when others are entertaining, it is when they are working, so they should seize the daytime and enjoy the temple fair.
What's more, the crowds are surging, and you are not afraid to go out on weekdays and give people pointers.
Wang Fu was thinking about seeing beautiful women, and he had already been crowded with people. Fortunately, Wang Gongzi has a lot of money, and he directly spent a floor of the attic, watching the tide on the edge of the Yujiang River, and watching the surrounding crowd from the attic, squinting and still seeing some beautiful girls.
Xiaoqian also found that this was not the same as the depiction she imagined, it was really too crowded.
There is no refutation of my cousin's suggestion to go up to the attic to watch the tide.
Standing in the attic, Qin Chuan saw the spectacular tide coming towards the river embankment, which was different from the river tide he imagined, and the tide in front of him unexpectedly formed a fish scale.
Qin Chuan's eyesight is excellent now, and at a glance, he can't see the existence of any fish in the fish scale tide, and he also feels a mighty breath, rising to the sky.
But Wang Fu and Xiaoqian couldn't detect this mighty aura.
Qin Chuan knew that the fish scale tide must be related to Long Jun, and that mighty aura was also related to Long Jun.
Wang Fu didn't seem very happy to see Qin Chuan pondering, "Liuxian, this is a rare fish scale tide that has been seen in ten years, although I can't see the grand scene of the tide making the red flag waving in his hand, but this fish scale spectacle, you really have to try your luck to see it, don't you know?" ”
Qin Chuan shook his head, it was the first time he came to Yujiang to watch the tide, not to mention that it was rare to see it in ten years, so naturally few people said about it.
Wang Fu: "You are a little Sanyuan that is rare to see in ten years, and you have met a fish scale tide that is rare to see in ten years, I listen to the old ...... Dad said that the fish scale tide means that the coming year will be smooth and rainy, which is a kind of auspiciousness. ”
"When the fish scale tide appears, will there be no fish in the Yujiang River?"
"yes."
Qin Chuan was a little disappointed, it seemed that he couldn't catch the yellow croaker, but he was not very disappointed, and when the money from the sale of the book arrived, he would buy a yellow croaker swim bladder in the city.
He came with a dispensable mood.
Qinchuan looked at the tide by the railing, quietly experienced the ebb and flow of the fish scale tide, and the mighty breath poured into the river bank and slowly dissipated.
He guessed in his heart that the mighty breath may be Yujiang Longjun, as for the appearance of the fish scale tide, it is not an accidental phenomenon, as if Yujiang has a mysterious power and the power of heaven and earth echo, forming this unique tide, what does the disappearance of fish and shrimp mean?
Qin Chuan seemed to have touched some kind of heaven and earth secret, but he couldn't find a way.
Or because he knew too little about the secrets of this world's cultivation.
The aura of this heaven and earth is so thin, but the space is so solid, there are gods, ghosts and demons, and what is the catastrophe hundreds of years later, Qin Chuan secretly feels in his heart that behind this world, there is probably a terrifying truth hidden.
This truth is obviously not the time that Qin Chuan can touch at the moment.
He admired Jiang Chao intently, and Xiao Qian next to him was also a little lacking in interest, begging Qin Chuan to tell her about the plot behind marrying the right man in the wrong sedan chair.
The emotional little girl has been waiting for a long time and has been thinking about this.
Qin Chuan rejected her and told her that if she knew the plot and read the text of the novel later, there would be no such surprise.
Xiao Qian was right to think about it, so she asked Qin Chuan to tell her other stories, Qin Chuan couldn't think of a suitable story for a while, Xiao Qian smiled slyly, "Brother Liuxian, you tell me about the legend of Yingying." ”
Yingying is no stranger to Qin Chuan, in fact, some literary stories in this world are similar to the world he lived in before, not only that, but also the Four Books and Five Classics and so on......
The world he experienced all had a similar cultural context.
Strictly speaking, it is more like the same plant, different flowers bloom, and you can always find similarities by tracing back to the roots.
Therefore, Qin Chuan can be mixed into it like a fish in water.
He frowned slightly, but he didn't really want to tell the legend of Yingying, because the legend of Yingying is the predecessor of the West Chamber, and it is the story of a talented and beautiful woman. In the final analysis, the essence of this story is to tell the story of the cheating affair between the daughter of a scholar and an official eunuch.
Qin Chuan didn't want Xiao Qian to have a different association, let alone take 10,000 steps back, if he married Xiao Qian, in a few years, would this living woman become a ghost according to the established inertia of fate?
Could it be that he really married a female ghost?
A half-demon in the family, a little banshee, and a female ghost, and he was originally an immortal monster.
Not to mention, this style of painting is quite appropriate.
In short, it is inappropriate to tell the story of cheating with a little girl, and it is inappropriate to do ten parts.
Xiao Qian saw that Qin Chuan rejected her again, and frowned, although it was men's clothing, it also had a bit of fairy style. She almost hugged Qin Chuan's arm, "Brother Liuxian, have you read my poems?" How is it written? ”
"Not bad."
"Then how about you send me another song?"
It's always bad to say no again.
Under the threat of Xiaoqian's eyes, Wang Fu had no choice but to persuade: "Liuxian, you will write another poem for her." ”
Qin Chuan: "I don't know any poems, if I have heard a few words sung by the hermits in the mountains occasionally, I will remember them." ”
Xiao Qian's eyes rolled: "Has the hermit ever sung your words about the Mid-Autumn Festival moon viewing?" ”
While the two were talking, an errand officer went up to the attic, panting, "May I ask who is Xianggong Qin?" ”
Wang Fu is a well-known gentleman in the city, and of course he knows the servants, so he directly asked Qin Chuan, who is handsome and elegant, and Xiao Qian, who is pretending to be a man.
"It's down there."
"The villain is from the yamen of the school, and the lord invites Qin Xianggong to go to the Linchuan painting boat to eat wine in the evening, this is the letterhead that the lord gave you, and please accept it from Qin Xianggong, you must come at that time, otherwise the villain will not be able to pay the errand, and you will have to take a meal."
Qin Chuan looked at the letterhead, which had a private seal for mentioning learning, and it was expected that the Huang family would not dare to forge the private seal of mentioning learning, and get a fake letter, after all, it was too much to do. I think it's really an invitation to learn. The student has absolute control over the student's examination, not to mention that he is very kind to Qin Chuan, so Qin Chuan naturally did not refuse the invitation of others.
In the content of the letter, he also asked Qin Chuan to prepare a poem for the Mid-Autumn Festival, if it is done brilliantly, it will have its own benefits tonight.
It is not uncommon to make Mid-Autumn Festival words on August 18 in Lingzhou City, because after the eighteenth night, the Dragon King Temple Fair is over, and the Mid-Autumn Festival of Lingzhou people is truly over.
Xiao Qian followed the letter and pursed her lips and smiled, "Brother Liuxian, I didn't expect me to think of going with the Great Grandmaster." I'm going to have a look at it at night, so you don't have to show me the word in advance. ”
Qin Chuan hadn't refused, and Wang Fu said, "Liuxian, you let Xiaoqian go." The Grand Master recognized her. My uncle's lord is the master of the school. A few days ago, Xiao Qian also went to visit the great master. ”
"In that case, Xiao Qian and I should go with you. What about Brother Wang? ”
"I'm not going to join in the fun, but we'll be on the same road at night."
Qin Chuan knew that Wang Fu definitely planned to take advantage of this opportunity to drink flower wine at night, so he was too lazy to poke at Wang Dagongzi and nodded.
If you say the words of the Mid-Autumn Festival moon appreciation, it is natural to take the water tune song of Dongpo when the bright moon is the first, but unfortunately there is already this word in the world, and the degree of singing is extremely high, and Qin Chuan has heard it many times before awakening.
It just so happened that the person was also Dongpo, but the dynasty he worked for was the Qi Dynasty, not the Song Dynasty.
Xiao Qian's family is very knowledgeable, Qin Chuan asked Xiao Qian what words in the world today are more outstanding with the head of the water tune song as the word card on the grounds of finding inspiration.
Xiao Qian recited them one by one.
Qin Chuan had a plan in his heart.
He was keenly aware of the invitation to learn, and it was not simple behind it. Qingqing said earlier that Yujiang Longjun likes to socialize with readers and talk about the world.
The mighty breath of the right talent came ashore, it should be Yujiang Longjun, and the head of Lingzhou scholars, of course, is to study. That is, the great master praised by all readers.
Qin Chuan saw that he knew slightly, and guessed in his heart that he might not be able to see the legendary Yujiang Dragon Monarch tonight.
If it is true, if you want to come to that benefit, it must also be related to Yujiang Longjun.
It doesn't matter if you guess wrong.
When you arrive at the Linchuan Painting Boat, everything will be clear and clear.
