Volume 1 Visiting Taiwan Chapter 12 The Visitor

On April 24, 2024, after a period of cultivation, Xu Changsheng was almost better.

After having lunch at home, Xu Changsheng was going to go out for a walk, after all, he hadn't gone out much except to deliver tofu.

Maybe because he didn't see Xu Changsheng, Gu Lingqing and his gang couldn't come to him for trouble.

Put your things away, lock the door, and leave.

As soon as he walked out of Weichen Alley, he was mixed with one foot, and he didn't wait for Xu Changsheng to speak.

But the man hugged his feet and shouted: "Oh, the poor road's feet hurt so much, they were all broken by you, and I can't get up today without one hundred and eighty taels." ”

Xu Changsheng kicked him angrily and said, "If you want to slander someone, you have to go to Fulu Street, what money can you have lying in Weichen Lane." ”

Hearing that it was Xu Changsheng's voice, the Taoist priest immediately stopped hurting his legs and waist, struggled to get up from the ground, and patted the dust on his buttocks with his wide-sleeved robe.

reorganized the crown of the five mountains on his head, and tried to pretend to be a master of the world. cleared his throat, walked with his sleeves at the entrance of the alley, and said: "The poor road leads to the past and the present, knows the yin and yang, knows the ancients, understands the future, and the seven sons of God can calculate the world's major events in one hand." I don't know what Xu Changsheng wants to measure?"

Xu Changsheng patiently waited for him to finish reading before pointing to the ground, "Talk about the chief, your thumb is exposed." ”

Tan Xiao suddenly felt that the thumb of his right foot was a little cold, and he quickly shrank back, leaving a hole.

Feeling a little embarrassed, he hurriedly pushed Xu Changsheng and told him to leave.

"The little kid doesn't do business and plays at the same time, don't prevent the chief from making a lot of money. ”

After Xu Changsheng left, Tanxiao looked down at the hole, and closed it with a thought.

Then he looked at Xu Changsheng's distant back and smiled.

......

went to the tofu shop, Li Ruan went to the street, and only Li Tui, the drunkard, was left picking his feet there.

He told Xu Changsheng that tomorrow would be the same, but Sun Fu increased the order, so that he could call Liang Mi tomorrow, otherwise there would be not enough time, and Li Ruan would also go to the street to look for soybeans because of this matter.

Liang Mi and Tang Song have been living in the City God Temple, and it is estimated that they are still there. Although the town is located in a remote area, the incense of the City God Temple has not been broken, and the residents will go to the City God Temple to offer incense during the New Year's Festival.

As soon as Xu Changsheng stepped into the City God Temple, he heard a deafening snoring sound. I saw a big man lying on the haystack on the side, unkempt.

Next to it lay a small slug, staring at the beam above, its little eyes "dripping" around.

Seeing Xu Changsheng, Liang Mi snorted hard and jumped up from the grass. His eyes widened, "Xu Changsheng, why are you here." ”

However, it seemed that the voice was too loud, waking up Tang Song next to him, and he closed his eyes and shouted, "I killed you, look at the sword." After saying that, he turned over and continued to snore.

Liang Mi rolled his eyes, "Don't pay attention to him, he is so virtuous, every time he is drunk and talks in his dreams, he is there to look at the sword, the sword is coming or something, he can't afford to eat, and he shouts to practice the sword." ”

Xu Changsheng also knew that after all, he and Tang and Song were old acquaintances, but as long as Liang Mi encountered something new, he would basically explain it to Xu Changsheng, maybe this was also what he thought was a good way for Xu Changsheng.

As he spoke, he picked up Xu Changsheng and walked out the door.

The two sat down on the steps of the eaves.

Xu Changsheng asked, "I have a lot of tofu to send tomorrow morning, how about the little slugs come and send some together?"

Liang Mi's eyes were shining, "Are you rich?"

Xu Changsheng smiled: "When did I lose your money." ”

Liang Mi scratched his head embarrassedly, "That's right, you won't lie to me, that bastard of Tang and Song often lied to me, and the money given was only enough for wine, causing me to run errands in vain." Talking is the same as farting, no wonder you can't practice a sword, and you can't afford to eat. ”

"Little slug, what are you talking about? Be louder, you can't hear clearly. A drunken voice came from behind him.

Liang Mi's body tightened, turned his head stiffly, and said with a forced smile: "Uncle Tang, I was telling Xu Changsheng that you have sword power and have killed countless demons." ”

Tang Song didn't pay attention to him anymore, leaned against the door frame, squinted his eyes slightly, and stared at Xu Changsheng.

"Xu Xiaozi learn sword from me, I guarantee that you have a great future. ”

Liang Mi skimmed: "Learn from you, learn the art of no sword? ”

As soon as Tang Song glared, Liang Mi immediately withered.

Xu Changsheng was also a little helpless, every time Tang and Song saw him, they would ask him to learn swords, learn swords, learn swords.

Xu Changsheng also wants to learn. But now that he is lying down to reduce his consumption, how can he still have so much energy to learn swords.

Xu Changsheng had no choice but to ask, "Do you care about the rice?"

Tang Song hurriedly covered his mouth and coughed, "Xiao Xu, this sword can be learned later, but this wine must be cultivated from an early age." There is no sword immortal who does not drink. Those who don't drink alcohol are not considered sword immortals. ”

Xu Changsheng asked again, "Do you drink your wine?"

Tang Song glared at him, "You kid, you're bored, you don't learn to pull down, others kneel and beg me, I don't want to teach!"

After speaking, he picked up the broken wine gourd on his waist and took a big sip, then turned around and went back to the City God Temple.

Xu Changsheng also chatted casually with Liang Mi for a while, and then went back. Tang and Song were lying on the haystack alone, with two legs crossed. Holding the melons and fruits on the tribute table, he bit them one bite at a time, and said to himself: "This sword, but it is getting more and more difficult to practice." ”

......

When passing by the center of the town, Xu Changsheng looked at the sundial, it would take about two hours before it would get dark, Xu Changsheng was going to go to the Nanfeng River to touch some fish and come back, the big ones were made into dried fish, and the small ones could be fried with oil a little, it was very fragrant and fragrant, and they could eat several bowls of rice, but the oil was too little, and there were few such opportunities.

In the past, when my father and mother were still there, I could often eat it.

When I came back from fishing, I would score points for Aunt He, she also liked to eat.

Back at the entrance of the alley, Tan Daotu also closed the stall, and estimated that he had gone to Fulu Street.

Xu Changsheng went home and got a fish basket and a bamboo harpoon, and heard Liang Mi say that the fish at the tail of the town was touched by Gu Lingqing with a few people a few days ago. This time, Xu Changsheng was going to go to the town to have a look.

The Nanfeng River originates in Nanfeng Mountain at the end of the town and is formed by the convergence of several small streams. The river is not large, and its widest part is no more than a foot wide.

Xu Changsheng went to the small pool at the bottom of the bridge, put the fish basket on the shore, pulled up his trouser legs, picked up the harpoon, and quietly looked at the water.

According to the fishing skills passed on to him by Xiong Youfu, he is sure that he can finish the fish in one pot, but now it is spring, and the water volume is gradually increasing, which is not easy to operate.

After thinking about it, Xu Changsheng took off his linen coat, tied his sleeves with trousers, and tied them with a straw rope as a simple fishing net.

After it was made, Xu Changsheng gently approached Xiaotan, found a suitable place to slowly put down his coat, and after sinking to the bottom, Xu Changsheng squatted on the stone in the river, which was a long wait.

The afternoon sun was still scorching, and Xu Changsheng's face was flushed from the sun. Sweat slowly seeped into his eyes, but fortunately, the last thing he lacked was patience. At this point, even Xiong Youfu thinks that he is not as good, you must know that when Xiong Youfu went out hunting with his father, he was stung by a wasp in the grass and did not make a sound.

Finally, a school of small fish swam over, and it swam straight over, and one stopped above Xu Changsheng's coat.

This is a little helpless, on time Le'an's guy is helping, but he can't live up to Le'an's kindness.

So Xu Chang stared at the fish, and his right hand holding the cheongsam gradually exerted his strength, and with a fierce lift, the cheongsam came out of the water, except for a few small fish on the periphery swimming away in panic, all the others were struggling in their pockets.

Xu Changsheng jumped back to the shore with a smile, put the small fish in his coat pocket into the fish basket, and hung the robe on the big stone plate. The method of fishing can only be used once, and after one time, the fish are startled, and they all run away.

Fortunately, a few grass carp are not afraid of this little wind and rain, they are still under the aquatic plants, Xu Changsheng lifted the bamboo harpoon, slowly approached the aquatic plants, and landed very lightly, without making a sound, which is also the reason why Xu Changsheng took off his straw shoes early.

Staying on the stone next to the aquatic weed, Xu Changsheng tightened the harpoon, found it, and stabbed it fiercely, like a cheetah catching sheep, like an eagle catching voles, at this moment, Xu Changsheng is an experienced hunter.

One grass carp struggled underwater, while the others had already swam under the rocks. Xu Changsheng lifted the harpoon and looked at the grass carp that was still struggling and laughed.

"Snort" There was a sneer from the stone bridge overhead.

Xu Changsheng looked up.

He had never seen such a beautiful woman.

The eyes are like water, but with a touch of coldness, as if they can see through everything, the ten fingers are slender, the complexion is fair, like the ice and snow that has not melted in early spring, the foggy sideburns and clouds, a white dress paves the ground, the face is exquisite, like nature, and the temperament like frost makes Xu Changsheng at the bottom of the bridge feel a little uncomfortable.

Behind the woman stood a beautiful woman in palace costume, and her appearance was also excellent, but standing behind the woman in white was much darker.

She was the one who sneered.

Seeing Xu Changsheng raise his head, the beautiful woman in the palace opened her mouth to say something, with an accent that she had never heard at all, and she didn't know what she was talking about.

The woman in white still looked indifferent, as if she said a faint "um", and the two turned around and walked towards the town.

Xu Changsheng didn't bother to care, put the fish into the fish basket, and continued to wait by the river for the grass carp to come out.

Suddenly saw Le An appear on the stone, it was still the one where Xu Changsheng was drying clothes, he grimaced at Xu Changsheng and smiled. Then he lay on top of Xu Changsheng's clothes, basking in the sun with Erlang's legs crossed. Xu Changsheng also smiled, but he didn't talk to him, what he needed at this time was quiet.

Until the evening, only one more was caught.

Wild fish are more afraid of life. As soon as he was frightened, he did not want to come out.

Le'an looked at Xu Changsheng's harvest and said proudly: "Xu Changsheng, do you want me to help you, I promise to catch all the fish in this small pool, and not a single one will fall." ”

Of course, Xu Changsheng knew that Le'an had this ability, but he didn't want to do it, so he shook his head, "I have enough to eat, and I can't eat more than I can't eat, let these fish grow up, and they can be caught in the future." ”

"Oh well. Seeing that Xu Changsheng didn't need his help, Le An was also a little disappointed.

Xu Changsheng smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, it's so late, I'm going home too, I'll come to play with you next time." ”

Le An replied sullenly, fell back and fell into the river and disappeared.

Xu Changsheng walked on the way home, and his mood was quite beautiful, on the whole, he was quite satisfied, and he gained a lot. These fish were enough for him to eat for a long time. Especially those small dried fish, thinking about it, Xu Changsheng had already swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva.

When passing by Mrs. He's house, no one was at home, so Xu Changsheng put the fish in the kitchen and took a lid to cover it so that it wouldn't be stolen by the cat.

When I got home, I quickly cleaned up all the fish. The two large skewers are ready to be hung in the yard, and the smaller ones are ready to be blown up. It's fried and dry, and it's crispy one bite at a time.

A child without parents is like a weed. At this time, this weed was alive and delicious, and at dinner, I specially took out five small dried fish and ate several bowls of rice. Fortunately, I dug up the precious hundred-year-old ginseng some time ago, otherwise I would definitely have to worry about eating at this time.

......

Liang Mi and Tang Song roasted a wild bar in the open space at the entrance of the City God Temple, the golden oil juice dripping on the fire made a sizzling sound, Liang Mi squatted on the side and watched Tang Song turn the iron bar, and kept swallowing saliva, even if Tang Song would only give him a rabbit leg, it was also excellent.

......

Su Sheng sat in front of the oil lamp and read Zhihuye, occasionally not knowing what to think, and smiled slightly.

......

Wu Weihu was carefully sharpening the sharp dagger in the courtyard, his eyes wandering, not knowing what he was thinking.

......

The Sun Mansion is brightly lit and extremely lively.

......

The light flows under the Nanfeng River.

......

The chief of the Taoist who was holding a broken flag "accidentally" came to the City God Temple, shouting that the luck was excellent.

......

Xu Changsheng held a small wooden stick in the courtyard, squatted on the ground, and carefully wrote the articles he saw in the books.

It wasn't until the first half of the month that I got up and went back to my room.

The two women I saw today were very beautiful, like fairies, Xu Changsheng was lying in his own home and thinking so.

I don't know if the daughter-in-law I will take in the future will be so beautiful? Xu Changsheng looked at his dilapidated brick house and thought about it, it should be unlikely.

But after thinking about it again, it's still okay to think about it.
