Chapter 37: Linyue Bay
The money taken out of the robbers, Chen Jing didn't think about dividends, and gave it all to Cui Niu, he had some money on him, and he had a fixed amount.
Although there was a small accident on the road, the shortcut was indeed fast enough, but it was just dusk to Linyue Bay.
Linyue Bay is just a temporary stop, and the two of them will continue to walk south, until they reach the Qianbin Ferry Port off the coast of Nanshui Country, and take a ferry to the north of Nanyuzhou.
Before going out, the master gave Chen Jing a broken atlas of mountains and seas, marked the general direction, and also recorded some customs and customs, but most of them were vague, and they had to let them, mainly Chen Jing, slowly speculate and explore.
Linyue Bay is formed by the upstream Zhanghe River for tens of millions of years to form a semi-circular bay, and then the flow goes straight down into the southern water country.
The border between the two countries is a highland, and every time the moon is full or the moon stars are scarce, the moon in the sky and the moon in the water reflect each other, from which the name of the small resort of Linyue Bay comes from.
This place is famous, in the early years, perhaps because of the magnificent scenery, but now it is very different, because of the wind and moon hook fence famous.
The difference is that the former is often just thinking in their hearts and can't, but the latter is practicing it and can come to the Fengyue Holy Land in person.
At dusk, the boats and boats in Linyue Bay have already hung up lanterns, there are several layers of carved dragon boats that catch people's attention, the boats in a series of conjoined bodies are swaying on the water, and there are some lonely and exquisite pleasure boats rippling alone, the river bay with a length and width of only three or four miles is crowded with at least more than 100 boats, and at the same time, there is also some sense of competition.
As soon as they entered the jurisdiction, the rouge powder came to their faces, making the two of them a little unaccustomed, and it took a quarter of an hour to get used to it.
I don't smell the fragrance of the orchid room for a long time, and I don't smell the smell of Bao City for a long time. Chen Jing was a little curious, which kind of person did he and Cui Niu belong to?
The reflection in the water and the lights on the boat complement each other, and the bustling crowd shuttles back and forth, all of which make Chen Jing and Cui Ying curious about the earth buns from the two small places.
It is important to find a store to live in first, and specially selected an inn near the river bay, and let the shopkeeper find a room that can see the river bay scenery through the window.
The pot-bellied shopkeeper squinted and asked, "I don't know how many rooms and how many rooms do the guest officers want?" Our house is a small shop, except for single and double rooms, only divided into upper, middle and lower three rooms. ”
Chen Jing said directly: "Two rooms are single, medium is fine, but it is best to arrange two rooms together." ”
Cui Ying took out the black stolen goods from her arms, took back one or two pieces after consideration, and gave the rest to the shopkeeper, "We will live for a few days, how can this money be enough, you can give us some food and drink for the rest, and if you have the rest, all of them will be exchanged for wine and food." ”
The shopkeeper's eyes widened slightly, and then he seemed to find out that the tall man was a woman, and he was even more shocked by her generous shot, like some heroes who did not have a little heart for money, and there was no need to deliberately be courteous to this kind of person.
"Shaoxia said with a smile, what you gave, in exchange for money, it is enough to live in a first-class room, this will be changed for you, in the future, the inn will prepare two meals and drinks for you every day, and send them directly to the room, if you have other needs, you can just ask."
When he was out of the house, he met a sincere person for the first time, Cui Ying laughed and said, "Go to the road, go to the road." ”
was led upstairs by the little servant, and after recognizing the room, Cui Ying asked the little maid to send the meal to the man's room to eat together.
When the little guy left, Cui Ying said a little scoundrel: "I don't care, you have to go out with me tonight, I don't expect to drink flower wine or anything, let's just walk around more, just take a look, it doesn't cost money." How? ”
Chen Jing replied casually, "It's not too much, it's up to you." ”
Then he unloaded the bamboo pipe, took out the bag from it and threw it on the bed, and took out the contents to clean up one or two.
The common name of the burden is "skinny bag", which is not a good thing, so there is no "must-have" statement, at most one or two more things than ordinary bags are not conspicuous, which is also the origin of the word skinny.
Even so, Chen Jing also heard some experiences from Dong Chuanhai.
This kind of bag is too chicken, and it is really useless to hold one or two small objects, and Ye Xiu must dislike it, unless a more superior "belly bag" can enter their eyes, but it is only out of the sparse goods, in some dynasties, as long as there is money, you can buy the kind, and therefore create some mortal nobles to hang one or two pocket belly bags in order to show off, it is true that some people who are full of food and support are displayed everywhere.
Rich and powerful figures, who can lack one or two retinues or something, it is not too much to say that they are tyrannical.
There is also a kind of high-end Qiankun bag, small and exquisite, the master has all of them, Chen Jing has also seen and played with it, it is obviously a palm-sized bag but can put many things, it has not pressed the feeling, and I envy it, but I don't dare to ask the master, otherwise I will end up with Cui Ying, and my head will be sinned and shameless, and I will be scolded: "You are also worthy!" ”
"The fledgling should be matched with the fledgling's things, and you can protect the good things with you?
To do not expose your wealth outside, you must know that Ye Xiu is prone to killing people and goods, and the giants of the sect are reserved, but this so-called 'some' are all empty rules and regulations, you can't see it, you can't touch it, you have good things on your body that make them look red, whether there is a legitimate reason to kill is a secondary matter, and whether you kill or not is the main thing.
The disciples of the sect have a little knowledge, and if they want to kill you, the reasons given are simply not too many, "Evil demons and foreign Taoists are punished by everyone, 'treasures and virtuous people live in it', 'I am really anxious to give you a bullshit 'Great Dao Competition'."
What can you do? Waiting for our old man to collect the bodies of the two of you?
Virtuous people, before they met, they thought they were far away in the sky, but if they really met, they won't let you regret it for life, and you won't run away for a while.
It's better to keep a low profile from the beginning, it's you who go to the rivers and lakes, not us who accompany you to the rivers and lakes, and it's not us three old guys who go to the rivers and lakes. ”
The old rivers and lakes, every word is a thousand words, you have to remember.
Of course, you have to remember, Master, they don't expect Cui Niu to be a fool, watching her grow up, she knows what shit she is pouting and pulling, and it is better to expect her to be enlightened and remember the old man's words, it is better to expect her to make less trouble.
A small bag of salt, a rice bag at the bottom, a small iron pot that has not been used a few times, and a few dry food cakes left, it seems that something is wrong with the smell, this is deliberately left by himself, he has walked the mountains and forests for a month, where do you know when you can come out, you can save it, although there is a simple map, only the general pattern is marked, and you have to slowly figure out one or two when you actually go.
Turned his head and asked Cui Ying, "Look at the things in the baggage, let's stay for a few days, we still have to prepare enough, after here, the next time I meet a village or town with a lot of people, I don't know when." ”
Cui Ying, who was slumped in the chair, said casually: "The rivers and lakes I imagined when I was a child are the kind of rivers and lakes that can make friends with all kinds of heroes and heroes by walking a few steps, and can meet all kinds of fairies and beauties in the quiet mountains and rivers, shuttling through the mountains and forests for nearly a month. ”
In the end, he said weakly: "I'm angry." ”
Chen Jing laughed at her, "You can't trust all the biographies in the book, and you can't believe the words of the storyteller, in the end, you think too beautiful." Don't talk nonsense, pick and choose the things in your baggage, your clothes have to be washed, and your dishes and chopsticks, don't think I don't know, many times you haven't washed and stuffed directly into the baggage. ”
The woman sighed and threw the burden on the table, untied the knot before lifting a corner, and was smoked back two steps, "This smell is too top, I can't stand it." ”
When the sky was completely silent and all the candlelights were on, the maid knocked on the door and asked if he could serve food, and after receiving an affirmative answer, the maids in the store began to serve the food one by one.
Cui Ying looked at the fact that there were only seven or eight dishes on the table, and it was still that kind of pocket-sized type, thinking that she had encountered a black shop again, she couldn't suppress the anger in her heart, and she began to lose her temper at the little girl, "Why are these few dishes, the money I gave is not enough!?" ”
The thin little guy said tremblingly, "Behind...... There are still ones in the back, we don't know the size of your food, the first wave, if it's not enough, we can still do it for you. ”
Cui Ying waved his hand and said, "Don't be so petty, don't underestimate people, just have two more tables according to these dishes." By the way, don't put on the wine, what kind of fruit drink to serve two large glasses, isn't it Xiaojing? ”
Chen Jing was not polite, anyway, the money was spent, and he was eating, so he nodded at the little guy and said, "Just do what she said, let's have two bowls of rice first, it won't be wasted, don't worry." ”
Although these two high-rollers are generous, and the shopkeeper has also told the little guys, but when they hear that they want so much, if they really want to finish eating, they are simply not people, they are rice buckets!
But this kind of thing is not the courage to say it, so he can only do it, in fact, he also hopes that these two guest officers can finish eating, and he himself can increase his knowledge.
The little guy immediately went to bring two large bowls of steamed rice, and the man and woman were not ambiguous, and began to gouge into their mouths in front of the little guy, just like they had never eaten a full meal in their lives, how ugly and ugly the food was, it was worse than a beggar begging along the street, and more like a vicious dog snatching food on the street.
The dishes on the table are all the signature of the store, and these two people don't need to pick up the vegetables at all, they directly look at a certain dish and pour it into the rice bowl, and even the rice and vegetables are shoeed into the mouth, and they don't need to chew and swallow it directly into the stomach.
The little guy looked at it in his eyes, guessing that these two probably didn't taste the taste, at most they tasted salty.
The little guy was still stunned, seven or eight dishes were almost gone, and the food in the woman's mouth hadn't been swallowed yet, and she said vaguely to the little guy standing on the side: "Hurry up and go again!" ”
The little guy who was frightened by the two of them beat a spirit, trotted to the kitchen, and chattered all the way: "My mother, alas, this is no worse than a rice bucket." ”
When the next wave of dishes was served, the dishes on the table were already clean, and even the soup was poured into the rice bowl, and the woman shouted, "Hurry! ”
The three little servants trembled and removed the old dishes and set up the plates containing the new dishes, and the other two came to watch the excitement together because they were curious about how to eat, and only after putting down the dishes did they saw the scene that they remembered for many years.
"Good guy, eat so much and eat so fast, if it's a poor person in the countryside, it's just that, look at those two who spend money unambiguously, it doesn't look like they are from a poor family, but the strength of eating and fighting is like a fight, I can't figure it out."
"Isn't it? If the two mouths are opened a little wider, they may be able to swallow the dishes, and their appetites are big, but they don't see their stomachs grow when they eat them, which is incredible. ”
"Grandpa God, I served three dishes, ate two bowls of rice, and finally drank two bowls of soup, and the last time I served the dishes slowly like a serious person, I had to lose enough money, otherwise our store would have made a loss-making deal on eating for the first time."
In the final dish, Chen Jing and Cui Ying no longer gobbled up, and they slowly tasted the taste of the dish.
Not bad is good, popular more is a comment on fresh dishes, going out, this is the first time to taste good food, for non-specialized restaurants to eat, good, in Zhao'an City there are also in the past to look for food, after eating a few times, that's it.
Cui Ying has a tendon, a large amount of fullness is the first requirement, as for the rest, as long as people say it is delicious, it is really delicious, she herself generally has no opinion, she is a person who likes to eat, but is not particularly assertive.
After pouring the last mouthful of soup, Cui Ying exhaled with satisfaction and roared arrogantly, "Happy!" ”
Chen Jing picked his teeth leisurely on the opposite side, looking out the window, the orientation of this first-class room is good, and he can see the general scenery of Linyue Bay.
The part near the shoreline is lit up by candles with a red light, and swims back and forth according to the wishes of the boat owner, most of them are back and forth on the shore, and a few swim to the distance, and there are also those who stand still, the most obvious is some large dragon boat boats in the middle of the river bay.
"Can you see that?" Cui Ying walked to the window and asked.
"Some can, some can't." Chen Jing knew that she was more sensitive to these places.
"At that time, on the way to find an inn, I bought a local chronicle, most of the landscape chronicles in your hand will not record the things of such a small place, and the painting boats and boats in this place are actually divided into three, six, nine and so on." Cui Ying twisted her ass and simply sat on the edge of the window.
Pointing to the place on the riverbank, he continued: "The most inferior thing is actually to change the fishing boat slightly, these people are also some poor laborers to pick up customers, the women in it are really average, the boat is also on the edge of the riverbank, there are only a few places back and forth, there is no backer or anything, I don't dare to rob people and business with other people, I don't even have that kind of shouting, some people come to make money, no one comes and they are hungry, this kind of boat is often two people, one owner and one artist."
The next best is the seriously decorated boat, which is the most of the different sizes, and often there are owners on the shore, and both places will introduce each other to business, and some are simply one.
There are separate ones, and there are several connected dragon boats, and the girls on the boat will also shout for business, just like the brothels in Zhao'an City. These shipowners have meat and vegetarian food and do not refuse to come, and there are also those who eat alone to serve the powerful, and it seems that the latter kind is more intelligent, but in the local chronicles, the former kind of people patronize the most, after all, it is human nature to like the new and dislike the old, and the money bag is not rich is also the majority.
The best boat in Linyue Bay is actually the dragon boat painting boat in the middle zone, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling are all available, and non-princes and nobles and luxury gate valves cannot board the boat, and most of these boat business is also done by them, and the 'land dragon' is them.
There are several opportunities to dock throughout the year, and usually when there is no supply, it is sent by small boat. The girl on the boat doesn't need to ask you to be clear, the country is not exaggerated, but when the power is proud, it is often miserable after losing power, and it is good luck to go to the top card and go elsewhere smoothly. ”
Chen Jing listened carefully to what she said, and said helplessly: "It's good that you have the strength to read half of the local chronicles in your practice." ”
Cui Ying rolled her eyes and said dissatisfied: "Practice, practice, it's not easy to go out, Master, they don't talk to me anymore, you take over the family style upside down." ”
Chen Jingbian disagreed, "If the master is here, your head will definitely suffer." Okay, since I've promised you, then we'll ......"
Cui Ying stood up and puffed up, waved his big hand and said, "Let's go!" ”
Cui Ying then remembered something and said, "Don't run around, there must be a majority of people selling their bodies and performing arts here, I'm afraid that you will hear something you shouldn't hear when you walk around." ”
Chen Jing rewarded her with a word.
"Get out!"
