Chapter 71: This Day Stops the Immortals
Li Ke and they arrived at their destination very smoothly, the scenery here is good, it belongs to a wasteland and there is no way to reclaim farmland, but it can grow weeds and the like, the weeds that have just sprouted in spring make the surroundings begin to become green, and the surrounding willow trees have also begun to sprout green buds, constantly beginning to pull strips.
Upon arrival, some of the guards immediately began to put things in order, such as some wooden tables and chairs that could be assembled, and two iron stoves made by blacksmiths were unloaded from the carriage.
And Jinyang and they naturally got off the carriage, and the Wei River here is relatively gentle, and they can go directly to the river.
"A few of you look at the little princesses, they can go to the river to play, but they can't go into the water!" Li Ke explained to the guards next to him.
"Yes!"
Sure enough, as soon as they got out of the carriage, they cheered and began to run around with joy, Chengyang and Gaoyang were like this for a few of their younger ages, although Changle and they didn't spread joy everywhere, but obviously, the surrounding environment made them a little relaxed.
The scenery may not be beautiful, but this wilderness gives people a very beautiful feeling.
"Third brother, it's so beautiful here!" Qinghe, who was not far from Li Ke, suddenly said boldly.
Li Ke was a little surprised, Qinghe actually rarely took the initiative to speak, she had a cold personality, Li Ke once thought she had autism, but later found out that she should not be autistic, it may be that some things in the palace caused her character.
After living here for the past two days, Li Ke found that Qinghe's personality was somewhat relaxed, after all, she was only an eight or nine-year-old girl.
"Well, in fact, it's nothing here, our Datang is too big, in the easternmost part is an endless sea frontier of thousands of miles, the vast sea is endless, and there are whales bigger than ships in the sea! To the north is the vast grassland, and the green meadows are like a green carpet. To the west, there are towering snow-capped mountains, such as the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, whose source is the melting and convergence of the vast snow-capped mountains in the Western Regions, and the Wanquan River eventually converges into a great river. Li Ke said with a smile.
"Yangtze River?" Qinghe was a little puzzled, "Third brother, which one is the Yangtze River?" ”
"Oh, the Yangtze River is the river!" Li Ke smiled and nodded, "Because it's too long, the third brother calls it the Yangtze River." And I think there may be more Oe in the future, so it's better to have a name to distinguish it. ”
"Oh, I see! The third brother is still knowledgeable! Qinghe nodded with wide eyes.
In the Tang Dynasty, there is no Yangtze River, but the Yellow River does, the earliest name of the Yellow River came from the Han Dynasty, and it was gradually recognized by people in the Tang Dynasty.
And the name of the Yangtze River is only one river! From ancient times to the present, that is, from ancient times to the Tang Dynasty, the word river is a special reference, that is, it refers to the Yangtze River, in fact, the original river also refers to the Yellow River, and the others are called water.
For example, the Wei River, in fact, is officially called Weishui.
However, many rivers are now also called rivers, and rivers are still specifically designated.
"Three pots, three pots, is it true that you said that there are fish in the sea that are bigger than boats?" Jin Yang also heard it not far away, and immediately ran over curiously and asked.
"Of course it's true." Li Ke smiled and nodded. "Haven't you heard Zhuangzi write about the getaway, there is a fish in the North Underworld, and its name is Kun. The kun is so big that it can't be stewed in one pot......"
"Third brother......" Chang Lejiao next to him said angrily, "Don't teach nonsense." ”
"Ahem, your mouth is down." Li Ke coughed dryly, and then said seriously: "Actually, this fish is called a whale." ”
"Three pots, is it delicious?" Jin Yang immediately asked with his eyes shining.
Li Ke: "...... "You can ask me this question, I really haven't eaten a whale yet."
"Oh, son, you're so stupid, think about it, the fish is bigger than the boat, how can anyone catch it! No one has ever eaten it! Gao Yang immediately shouted next to him.
"Then we can build bigger ships! A ship bigger than the palace of Aye! Jin Yang gestured with both hands in a super big pose.
You have a point! Sure enough, the words of children are the truth!
"That'...... You can't catch that! People can run! Gao Yang rolled his eyes and said.
"Okay, okay, you two don't fight, let's put the paper kite!" Lan Ling pulled the two little guys and said with a grin.
When they came over today, the third brother prepared a lot of beautiful paper kites for them, and the little ones were very interested in these paper kites.
Seeing that Jinyang and Gao Yang were taken to put paper kites, Li Ke breathed a sigh of relief, whew, it's not good for children to have too many problems.
"Gao Yang, you sit down first, and the third brother will go and give you a barbecue." Li Ke simply went over there and set up an oven with the guards, this oven is no different from a modern oven, and it has no technical content, although charcoal is also brought, but it is a bit difficult to ignite charcoal, but fortunately, there is no restriction on making fires in ancient times.
Some of these guards went to light the fire and get charcoal, and it was estimated that it would be done by noon.
Although it was clear weather, it was not hot, but the sun was still very hot at noon, and in order to prevent burns, several guards had already propped up a huge piece of silk and made an awning.
After many people in the south go to the north, because it is not hot, they do not take sun protection measures and feel fine. In fact, in the north, even if you think it's cool, if the sun is very sunny on a sunny day, you still need to do sunscreen, and it's easy to get sunburned.
A few carpenter apprentices who came with them have already assembled the disassembled wooden recliners, these wooden recliners are designed with mortise and tenon structures, just to make them easy to carry, Li Ke has long been ready to go out for an excursion, and this recliner is naturally to be prepared.
In addition to these, Yang Anning and the others who came out with Li Ke had already taken out the guqin, guzheng, pipa, and flute, and four people and four musical instruments.
Since Li Ke gave it to them to arrange the music, they have been studying this, that is, different parts of a piece are expressed with different instruments to achieve a more complete feeling, rather than simply playing in unison.
They have tried a lot in the past few days, and they have already achieved a little success.
The two cooks who had come with them had already lit a fire, put the kettle on it and boiled it, and then began to make tea for everyone.
Lying on the recliner leisurely and shaking, the sun shines down and makes people warm, making people want to sleep, there is a light of tea on the wooden table next to it, the fragrance of tea wafts on the tip of the nose, and there is Yang Anning next to them The sound of the piano, Jinyang, Gaoyang Their playful laughter continues to enter the ears, although the horse's hooves of the guards in the distance are a little messy, but they add a bit of life.
It's been a great day! Li Ke closed his eyes and hummed a little tune in his mouth, tsk, this day is too comfortable.
"Haha, this day, cool, I won't change it for an emperor!" Li Ke lay on the chair and said lazily and loudly, surrounded by his own people, what are you afraid of!
