Text Chapter 78 Poetry Society
An Hexuan said: "Little brother, I didn't expect you to be so good at such a young age, but I can't wait for you to be a few years old, but today I want my little brother to break the siege and save me from being bullied by the younger generation, it's really embarrassing, I am here to give the little brother a bowl of wine." As he spoke, he sifted a bowl of wine for Long Xiaofeng, and then sifted another bowl for himself, and said, "Please!" He raised his neck and drank it dry, and Long Xiaofeng also picked up the wine bowl and drank it all.
Long Xiaofeng said: "Brother An, is your father really the old sect master of An Qingtian?" An Hexuan nodded and said, "Not bad!" Long Xiaofeng said: "That stone armor just now said that it was Ouyang Jinpeng who killed Ling Zun, is this matter true or false?" An Hexuan smiled slightly and said: "Little brother, if you set foot in the Western Regions for the first time, it is better not to inquire about some things, so as not to set yourself on fire and cause endless disasters to yourself." Long Xiaofeng said with a smile: "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, but Brother An is so downtrodden, it's a little incomprehensible." ”
An Hexuan laughed and said: "Grievances and hatreds are empty, and the fame of the floating world is in a dream." But he has to be drunk for a long time and doesn't want to wake up, and he doesn't care about good and bad luck. Long Xiaofeng said: "Brother An is chic and happy, but he is so depressed and depressed, I am afraid it is not the husband's doing." An Hexuan said disdainfully: "Big husband? Throughout the ages, how many of those who claim to be big husbands are real big husbands? I don't know how dirty the things they do behind their backs, hehe! In life, everything can be done without shame, why be that ancient person for some fame." ”
Long Xiaofeng felt that although his words were somewhat reasonable, he didn't agree with them, and it was difficult to refute them, so he had to say: "Everyone has their own ambitions, but they can't be as chic as Brother An, but if a person is worthy of everything, I'm afraid he can also be worthy of the three words "husband." An Hexuan nodded and said, "Where is the little brother's home?
Long Xiaofeng said: "In Xia Long Xiaofeng, he is a disciple of the Snow Domain Sect, and it is also fate to be able to get acquainted with Brother An today." An Hexuan said: "Brother Long can also be described as a young hero. Long Xiaofeng said: "It's ridiculous, but Brother An's literary style is very respectful!" An Hexuan said: "Speaking of literary style, in this witch gate, there is a place that you can't go to, Brother Long is interested?"
Long Xiaofeng said: "What kind of place is that?" An Hexuan smiled: "I know if I go, I will make sure that you are worth the trip." After speaking, he said loudly: "Boat family, quickly drive the boat, go to Taojindu!" The old man surnamed Shi heard this, hurriedly responded, pulled up the sails, went up the river, and headed east.
The wind on the river was very strong, and the big ships were very fast. Before the two of them had finished drinking a pot of wine, they saw a pier appear not far from the riverbank.
Boats of all sizes are moored everywhere, and there are many fishermen and traders coming and going on the riverbank, and it is a place full of people. An Hexuan laughed and said, "Brother Long, please come with me." The two of them walked up to the riverbank, and they didn't bother to pay any attention to the three stone armor in the shelter cabin.
An Hexuan drank a lot of wine, staggered forward, Long Xiaofeng followed, walked about five or six hundred steps, crossed a stone bridge, and two rows of peach trees appeared in front of him, and in the middle was a stone road less than a foot wide. It is the time of early spring, the peach blossoms on the branches of the tree are in full bloom, the fragrance of the flowers hits people, at a glance, it is like two red neon across the eyes, it is very beautiful. Under the bridge, the water is horizontal, flashing with the green and blue color of the glass, bending and winding, the flowers and the shadows of the trees, competing for beauty. Long Xiaofeng saw the beautiful scenery in front of him, and couldn't help but secretly cheer.
Stepping on the gravel road, the aroma is even stronger. An Hexuan said: "Brother Long, not far in front of you is Tianxiang Tower." Long Xiaofeng looked at it, and saw a building in front of him standing majestically, with red walls and green tiles, and warped cornices, which was very spectacular.
Before he could get closer, he heard the sound of orchestral strings and bamboos coming from inside, and the music was drowned out by bursts of laughter from time to time, as if hundreds of people were laughing loudly. Long Xiaofeng was surprised in his heart, and couldn't help but say: "This day the Xianglou is very lively!"
An Hexuan said: "Brother Long, you don't know, this Tianxianglou can be regarded as the most interesting place today, you only need to stay in this elegant place for three days, to ensure that you will be haunted by dreams in the future, and there is nothing more than this in the world!"
As he spoke, the two walked to the main entrance, and on both sides of the door were a couplet: "The peach falls in the middle of the month, and the heavenly fragrance clouds float outside." An Hexuan was about to walk in, but a guard in front of the door suddenly stretched out his hand to stop him and said: "The two of you are late, at this moment a poetry meeting is being held in Tianxianglou, according to the rules of Tianxianglou, after Shenshi, whether it is chess, or poetry and music, you can't enter." Please go back, both of you. ”
An Hexuan glared and said: "Boy, you dare to stop me from entering, go and inform your master, just say that I, An Hexuan, want to compete for Shikui." The guard said: "Gongzi An, although you are a frequent visitor to Tianxianglou, you can't break the rules of Tianxianglou!" An Hexuan said angrily: "What bullshit rules? I have always entered this Tianxianglou as if I was entering my own house, your master has already said it, so it is your turn to talk nonsense here, and you will not let go?" The guard said: "Gongzi An, please wait here, let me go in and report it, and then make a claim." An Hexuan said: "Go and come back quickly, my son is impatient to wait for a long time." ”
The guard hurriedly went, and rushed back in less than a moment, bowing to An Hexuan and saying, "Gongzi An, my master is invited, the villain was offended just now." ”
An Hexuan snorted coldly, ignored it, and led Long Xiaofeng to walk in quickly. Ten steps in the Tianxiang Building, one hundred steps in a pavilion, the pavilion in the bottle is raised with a variety of seasonal flowers, or sparse, or reclining Xiu Ting, there is an indescribable beauty of elegance and refinement. An Hexuan instructed: "Brother Long, most of the flowers in these bottles are from the original handwriting, do you think it is worth watching?" Long Xiaofeng said: "These flowers are outstanding and elegant, full of natural interest, at first glance, they are the work of a noble gentleman, and Brother An's talent is high, which makes the younger brother worship." An Hexuan laughed and said, "Brother Long has this vision, and he is also a good person. ”
Suddenly, a maid came to meet her, holding a bouquet of peach blossoms, floated to the front, and said with a smile: "Gongzi An, my master invites you to go upstairs to participate in the poetry meeting, please come with me." "Lead the way. The two men followed behind and walked up a curving staircase, and the noise was even louder.
After climbing three flights of stairs in a row, the noise gradually faded away. After reaching the fourth staircase, the three of them turned a screen, and Long Xiaofeng felt that his eyes lit up sharply, and a very spacious hall appeared in front of him. There are six rows of low tables in the east and west directions of the hall, and behind the low tables without exception sits a man, one by one with a square scarf and long shirt, which looks very elegant.
When Long Xiaofeng and An Hexuan entered the hall, the maid casually closed the door of the hall tightly, and pulled down a layer of soft cloth curtain covering the door.
Long Xiaofeng couldn't hear the sound outside at this moment, so he glanced at the people sitting in the hall, and saw that there were about six dwarfs in each row, a total of about sixty people, all dignified and respectful, with clear expressions and very leisurely attitudes.
Long Xiaofeng had never seen such a scene, and he only felt indescribable surprise in his heart, so he had to follow An Hexuan and follow the maid to the east. When a male waiter saw someone coming, he had already set up two low tables and stools and placed them at the east head. Long Xiaofeng saw An Hexuan sit down next to one low table, so he also sat down next to another low table.
The maid smiled and said, "Wait a while, and I'll report to Sister Liu." And he went out through a corner gate at the east head. After a while, a rather beautiful woman in purple walked out of the corner door, saw An Hexuan, and said with a slight smile: "Gongzi An, you are finally here, this poetry meeting is waiting for you alone!" An Hexuan said: "I'm really sorry, it's all because of me and I was greedy for a cup, but fortunately I met this dragon brother next to me, otherwise I almost missed the grand event in front of me." ”
The girl in purple smiled and said, "This dragon brother seems to be a man of elegance?" An Hexuan said: "Fengya may not be able to talk about it, but it is true that he is talented and righteous, but without the consent of the girl, I brought him here first, and asked the girl not to be surprised." The girl in purple said: "Gongzi An is polite, your friend is my friend, I warmly invited, and I am afraid that the two sons will not appreciate it!" After speaking, he smiled at the two of them, then turned around and said loudly: "Everyone, the holy girl will arrive after a while, please write the poem on the note first, and then evaluate it when the holy girl comes?" Everyone applauded and picked up the pen to write.
For elegant things such as writing poems and paintings, Long Xiaofeng has also heard people talk about it before, and he also read a lot of poems when he was a child, but when it comes to writing poetry, he is a complete layman. Seeing that everyone was rolling up their sleeves and studying ink, their expressions were very dignified and respectful, Long Xiaofeng couldn't help but glance at An Hexuan. An Hexuan neither lifted the pen nor studied the ink, squinted slightly, but kept shaking his head slightly, and there were words in his mouth.
The girl in purple saw that Long Xiaofeng and An Hexuan did not mention the pen to write, and smiled: "Brother An is only eight buckets high, and the last time the poetry meeting overwhelmed the crowd and won the first place, it is really admirable, this little brother can be appreciated by Brother An, and the poetry must be extraordinary." Long Xiaofeng hurriedly stood up and said: "I am just a post-born boy, I have never done poetry, today I came here because of Brother An's light, and my sister praised it." ”
The girl in purple smiled slightly and said: "The little brother can't write poetry, but if he comes to participate in the poetry meeting, he must be a person with deep wisdom." As he spoke, he turned his gaze to An Hexuan and said with a smile: "Brother An has a great work to offer this time? An Hexuan said: "I don't know what title the poem is, and after you dedicate the poem, I will not be too late to do it." The girl in purple said: "The peach blossoms are blooming brightly these days, and this peach blossom is the theme." ”
