Lan Shun, True Source, Silver Pendant.

The three long bridges, other local bridges in the Kampong Shixia River section, are often missing one of the "big" and "long", especially about the former, which is not worth mentioning in front of the three bridges.

Walking all the way through the Pound Stone Gorge, I saw a lot of "broken bridges", but it was obviously intentional, the broken bridges generally stretched to the middle of the river, and were much higher than the ground, and pavilions were built at the end of them, which belonged to the use of viewing.

The long bridges connecting the two sides of the river bank are not small, and the bridge deck is wide enough to ride two horse-drawn carriages in parallel, but it is obviously not the kind of magnificent masterpiece built in the name of the dynasty.

Looking from a distance, the broken bridges and long bridges are layered on top of each other, and they seem to take care of all aspects of the public and private, and they also make Chen Jing, who came from other places, feel the strong atmosphere of Yujinzhou businessmen.

The two of them walked slowly all the way, and they would always encounter something they had never seen before.

There was juggling on the riverbank, Cui Ying was fascinated, waiting for the juggling to call it a day, and subconsciously planned to pay for a reward, Chen Jing hurriedly pulled him away, people were invited to win over business when the building opened, how much reward money can you give? A few pieces of broken silver, in such a place where every inch of land is valuable, is no different from humiliating people.

When he got to a place where there was a river water trick performance, Chen Jing looked at it for a while, and he didn't know why the men and women in the water were not swept down by the turbulent water.

It doesn't seem to be a monk, but this trick of resisting water makes him, a layman, look at it in his eyes, and he can't help but praise a pleasing sentence.

Take a look at the opposite side, damn it, it's a medicinal herb shop, up and down six floors, the shop is huge, but the name of the store is a little ugly, "white life and no death".

Grabbed Cui Ying and walked away.

Pound Stone Gorge is not prosperous everywhere, there are still a lot of vacant places on both sides of the river are mountain stones, and so on to the lively place, the small door and small households are still the majority of the single shop, can monopolize the building surface of the mountain, often go out a few miles to meet one, and the small shop on the left and right, it is very likely to be attached.

Chen Jing muttered: "If this continues, will there be a winner-takes-all situation?" ”

"Look, look, that's the True Source Bridge." Cui Ying shook Chen Jing's arm and said.

The sky is dark, the night light has not yet lit up, there are at least a few hundred steps away, the side of the Zhenyuan Bridge is jade white, with a single span and multiple arches, spanning one hundred and eighty zhang across the river.

There is an endless stream of people going up and down the bridge, if the bridge is wide enough, Chen Jing plans to sleep on the bridge for one night, as for being seen as a joke, anyway, he doesn't charge money, he doesn't spend money to make money.

The three bridges of the Pound Stone Gorge, the Lanshun Bridge in the west, the Yinshen Bridge in the east, the Zhenyuan Bridge in the middle, I don't know whether the location is unintentional or deliberate, the Guanyu Dynasty that presided over the construction of the Zhenyuan Bridge is located in the easternmost part of Yujinzhou, but occupies the middle position, maybe it is really a rumored statement, Yujinzhou's financial strength is the world's best, and the Guanyu Dynasty's financial strength is the best in Yujinzhou.

Chen Jing thinks that he is a mud-legged wild cultivator, rich people have a lot of money, he can't imagine it, he has to guess, it may be similar to the allusion of "the emperor uses a gold hoe" written in the bookstall humor collection.

Throwing off these some and not, the two walked to the Zhenyuan Bridge, and the night light happened to be on, not only on the bridge deck, but also under the bridge, which happened to completely illuminate the entire arch cave.

The candle lanterns made them curious, and they didn't use silk threads to hang them, but floated in the air out of thin air, and the lanterns were lined up from the head of the bridge to the end of the bridge, and the whole bridge deck was very bright.

Rao is crowd of people, can not see the panorama, fifty zhang wide bridge deck still let the men and women amazed again and again, compared to the general main city avenue is not much more reckless.

Maybe it's because of the fact that it's just night, the crowd on the bridge has never decreased, Chen Jing's idea of sleeping on the road has been put on hold for the time being, I don't know how many of these people will stay late at night, after all, they were seen by a few people, and a bunch of people watched, there is a lot of difference between the two.

Walking to the middle of the bridge, the two of them were tall and could see each other clearly.

A river temple with five large and small gates, facing the Zhenyuan Bridge.

The crowd of people who came in and out, floated out of the temple and the cigarette smoke was thick, and it was completely dispersed when it rose to a very high place.

Cui Yingdao, who was staring at him with random eyes: "This Yu Jinzhou is really wealthy, and it is all open to build a temple." ”

Cui Ying looked at the opposite side and said rarely: "The River Temple, alas, it's still such a big one, let's go inside and have a look." ”

Chen Jing said: "When you go in, you burn incense and pray for blessings, and incense is to be bought." ”

Cui Ying shrugged her shoulders, "I don't believe in ghosts and gods, why should I spend money to buy incense to honor them." Walk around, look at it and don't spend money, I haven't heard of the temple and collect money when you enter the door, that's too shameless. ”

The men and women dragged into the temple of the river.

After the two went in, they wandered around, the temple occupied a lot of land, and they didn't see any guest rooms, nor did they have merit boxes, maybe this river temple was purely a temple for burning incense and worshiping gods.

Go around and around, come to the side hall, the hall is arranged with high painted statues, all are the river gods in the river basin of the Quliang River, each is different, there are men and women, there are old and young, and even some obvious river gods who are creatures in the water and turn into demons, the base of the statue is written with the river area.

Most of the people who come and go to worship God go to the main hall, and there are many fewer people who come to the side hall to burn incense, but the victory is continuous.

The two looked at each other one by one, and sure enough, they found the god of the Pound Stone Gorge River, and the statue was carved to look like a fierce general in the army, holding a spear and his eyes wide with angry eyes.

Several gods in the side hall have long seen that Chen Jing and Cui Ying are not pleasing to the eye, and if they don't come to burn incense and worship God, they will give birth to a noble son early, and they will also point at the statue, be rude, dare to chew their tongues in front of the river god, and are not afraid of becoming a water ghost after death.

Chen Jing's eyes are fast, and he can't stay here for a long time, so he pulls Cui Ying away.

The statue of the god of the Quliang River River, located in the main hall, the two have not yet entered, the eyes are attracted by the bright gold, after entering the main hall, the top of the head continues to tilt back, there is a golden statue three zhang high, standing in the main hall.

The base of the water waves, dressed in plain clothes, with loose hair, the face of the god is stiff and majestic.

Don't talk about Cui Ying, even Chen Jing is speechless, don't say anything else, just the height of this golden statue, in other temples, I can't think of it.

Cui Ying secretly asked the priest in the hall, whether the statue was gilded or pasted with gold leaf.

The Divine Servant snorted coldly, full of sarcasm.

Cui Ying said "oh", I know, it should be gilded.

Seeing her self-righteousness, the divine servant was even more disdainful, and said coldly: "Pure gold." ”

"Oh, that's amazing."

After Cui Ying finished admiring, she immediately asked again: "Hollow or solid?" ”

The divine servant said angrily: "Really, there is no gap at all!" ”

This angry remark attracted everyone in the hall to look over, Cui Ying pretended to be stupid and walked around with her hands behind her back.

Chen Jing stared at the statue and was whimsical, and suddenly felt that it was the temple Zhu from the demon spirit who came over.

The age of an old woman, with a short nose and narrow lips, and only four fingers, just by seeing the turtle shell on Miaozhu's body, you know what kind of demon spirit it is.

Miao Zhu came to Chen Jing, glanced at Cui Ying first, and then said slowly: "Young man, when you come to the temple, you don't plan to worship God and pray for luck?" ”

Chen Jing was embarrassed and said: "I don't have this plan." ”

Miaozhu smiled kindly, "But come to hang out?" ”

Cui Ying saw the temple at this time, came over, carefully knocked the turtle shell with his hand a few times, and was not tired of it, planning to knock a few more times, and maybe fall down, to see if he could pick it up and collect it as a treasure.

The priest who had been staring at Cui Ying looked frightened, this guy who was out of tune was really impatient, and he dared to be frivolous in front of Miaozhu, you are not afraid of death, Lao Tzu is still afraid of being affected by you.

rushed over, and was about to reprimand this daring fellow.

Miao Zhu let the priest not have to care, waved his hand, let him go first, he was fine.

Cui Ying tapped the back of the turtle shell a few times and asked, "Old woman, why do you take off your clothes?" ”

Miao Zhu was amused by her silly words, patted her arm and said, "Silly girl, my mother-in-law has lived here all her life, and she can't take it off." ”

Cui Ying leaned closer and asked quietly, "If, I mean, if someone breaks your turtle shell, old woman, what should I do?" ”

At this time, Miaozhu was as talkative as an old woman in the village, and said: "If there is really such a day, I am afraid that this old thing will not die, but it is not much better than death." ”

Cui Ying pointed to the golden statue and said, "If you don't learn from the river god, stick the gold to the outside of the turtle shell, and it will be stronger." ”

Chen Jing went over to give her a look at the back of the head, she didn't know how to judge the situation, and it was endless.

Miao Zhu said disappreliantly: "Little girl, you don't understand, the golden body of the river god is given by thousands of spiritual beings, not his own gold, and the old body can't learn it." ”

Then he said to the two: "The two really don't plan to burn pillar incense for the river god?" ”

Cui Ying was thick-skinned and said directly: "We don't have any money." ”

Miao Zhu smiled dumbly, so that's it.

Pointing to the incense burner, he said: "The river god never refuses pilgrims, the two of them are temporarily shy, so they use the sandalwood of ordinary people's houses, spend a few taels of silver, come to the river temple, meet the gods and worship the gods, and always leave no regrets." ”

Chen Jing thanked the temple wishes, "Then bow down." ”

Cui Ying held the incense in her hand, chanting incantations in her mouth, drawing circles in front of her hands, hating to dance the gods, and finally inserted the incense into the incense burner before Chen Jing couldn't help but scold.

Chen Jing glared at her, closed his eyes with incense, and bowed three times after a while, and then carefully inserted incense into the incense burner.

Miao Zhu saw the two leave, and said with a smile: "Young is good." ”

Walking out of the River Temple, Cui Ying put his hand behind the back of his head and asked Chen Jing, "What wish do you make, say it and listen to it." ”

Chen Jing snorted coldly, "You speak first." ”

Cui Ying tilted his head and said proudly: "Ask the river god to bless me to cultivate to soar to the sky, ten years in the Yuan Infant Realm, twenty years in the Liuli Realm, thirty years in the ......"

Chen Jing didn't wait for her to finish, covered her mouth, looked around, but no one listened, no one could help this kind of desire to leave the big spectrum.

Cui Ying slapped Xiaojing's palm away, stuck out her tongue a few times in disgust, and asked, "What wish did you make?" ”

Chen Jing walked a few steps faster, turned around and said, "I won't tell you." ”

"I knew you would be like this, but fortunately I was clever, and the wish I just told you was made up by me."

"That's it, we don't have to say anything."

"Don't mind, say it and listen to it, it's a big deal, I'll say it first."

"No, I don't believe it anyway."

"You're just looking for a hammer."

Chen Jing carried the troublesome Cui Ying on his back and shook three steps on the Zhenyuan Bridge to find a place to sleep.

In the middle of the night, there are few pilgrims in the Quliang River River Temple, but the lights are still bright, the temple wishes a few words to the gods at this time, and plans to go back to the room to rest, old as her, the practice matters have been rare, and now the longevity is fried, just to have one more day to worship the river god.

Before walking out of the main hall, he worshiped the river god again, glanced at the statue of the river god a few times, and it seemed that there was something wrong, and then shook his head and said, "Sure enough, it is old to the point of being useless." ”

The temple wishes slowly and leisurely departed.

In the main hall, on the golden body of the river god, there is gold dust that slides down and scatters into the void and disappears.
