Chapter 10 Some people enter the city and some people leave the city

The snow is not cold, the snow is cold. People's enthusiasm for drifting snow has disappeared with the thick snow on the houses, which has changed from thick to thin. The breeze blew, blowing up the snowflakes, the slightest chill lingering in the air, and the wandering people tightened their padded jackets, and the pace of returning home sped up a little.

The snow has stopped, and when the snow melts, wisps of snow water rise from the eaves facing the street, dripping on the bluestone slabs, and quickly merging into small streams that flow to unknown distances.

A horse-drawn carriage was not fast, but drove slowly down the street, stopping and stopping, and finally came to a stop in front of an inn.

A clean, thin hand lifted the curtain and walked down a young man who looked like a scholar. The body is thin, the bridge of the nose is high, the body is long, the posture is upright, standing in the crowd, and it is called a "good skin".

A young girl passing by couldn't help but stop. As far as the young man's eyes could see, the girl stomped her foot and picked up the hem of her skirt and quickly disappeared from sight, as if she was a little embarrassed.

The young man who stands out from the crowd is Emperor Han Qing, who has traveled here. It was also the first time for the young man to encounter this situation, and he couldn't help but touch his nose to hide his embarrassment.

In fact, the young man has been in the city for an hour, stopping and stopping along the way. On the one hand, I hope to learn more about the situation in the city, the customs and customs, and then choose a place to settle down so that I can start my first trip.

Master Wen Sheng once said: "It is better to read ten thousand books than to travel ten thousand miles." The road has been walked a lot, so that it can be compared with the poems and books in the belly and confirmed. No matter how good the moral article is, no matter how well it is memorized. If it is not beneficial to the world, it cannot contribute to the process of civilization in this world, and it is not a good article. ”

A really good article should be: one that teaches people progress, enlightens people, is beneficial to the promotion of social civilization, leads people to goodness, reads books that are loud and enduring, and can stand the test of history.

After entering the city, the flowers, birds, fish and insects that break into the eyes, pavilions and pavilions, peddlers and pawns, dignitaries and dignitaries, and the wide streets that can accommodate six carriages side by side, all shock the hearts of young people.

As a young man who grew up with his grandparents, this is the first time he has been in the city. All this refreshed his cognition. The young man who has already achieved something in his studies is like a mountain villager who sees the gold of the mountain for the first time, and he can't move his steps, and urges the horseman to slow down and slow down several times. Looking east and west, looking at the traffic in front of him, the flow of people is like a gathering, lingering, and happy.

Although they have learned about all aspects of life from books, when all this is clearly laid out in front of their eyes for the first time, young people still can't calm down for a long time.

In the years when I grew up with my grandparents, I spent all day in small villages, and the farthest place was to Xiyan Mountain. Later, he followed his parents back to live in the Han Clan Ancestral Hall and devoted himself to reading poetry and books. Not even once did he go to the streets of the city. Even Songyang City is the first time to set foot on this trip.

Young people are like a sponge desperately soaking up water, and they never get tired of it.

It wasn't until the groom urged him many times to rush back to Songyang County that the young man reluctantly retracted his gaze.

Let me help find a home inn and stay overnight.

It was twilight, and I stopped in front of the inn.

Young people who read poetry and books are not so ignorant. In fact, when he entered the city, the young man still entered the water calmly, and it was not until he entered the city that he slowly changed his mood and secretly spoke in comparison with the small village where he lived.

"Young master, the groom was a little helpless, and he couldn't help but remind him. ”

It's really a dirt bun, I haven't seen any scenes in the past few years. It was the first time I had encountered such an ignorant reader.

The groom scolded in his heart, but his face remained silent. Looking at the sky, I can't go back to Songyang County tonight. Tonight, I have to spend money to live in the firewood room of the inn again, and the black-hearted store actually charges five cents. That's enough for me to buy some good food for my granddaughter.

Seeing the groom's unhappy face, the young man smiled apologetically. Hug your fists and bow down, delay grandpa's return to Songyang County, in addition to the five taels of silver that I said, I will add another ten cents, and it is late, Grandpa Li will not go back, stay overnight, arrange a room for you, and wait for Xiao Er to make a pot of wine to fry a few signature dishes, we will drink two sips to warm up, and all consumption is counted on my head.

The young man waved his hand and did the cloud road with pride.

Seeing that the owner was so good, the groom was overjoyed. shouted again and again, the young master is really a kind-hearted person.

The young master is not strange, but he is not old and uninteresting. It is really to send guests to Luoyang City, and they all return immediately, the distance is far away, and it has been delayed for a long time.

The young man smiled and nodded in understanding.

There has long been an inn junior servant standing around, and the inn's junior second has been in contact with past guests from Tiannan and Haibei every day, and has long been trained to have a pair of fiery eyes.

Although the young man standing at the door was dressed plainly, he had an extraordinary bearing, and he was full of energy and energy, and he went to pick up and drop off in a carriage, carrying a bamboo box, and he looked like a scholar who traveled far away.

Luoyang City is a big city, and you can't say that you have to linger here for a few days, and you have to stay in the inn for a few more days after serving. Thinking of this, the smile on his face became a little more sincere.

"Childe, please, our store has a good wing, the hot daughter is always ready, and the signature dish is a must. Just waiting for you to enjoy it!"

Xiao Er stretched out his hand to beckon him in, and beckoned the little guy to take the carriage away. Feed the good horse feed, Xiao Er does not forget to remind.

Zuixiang Building, located in the east city of Luoyang City, has a wooden three-story structure, and two big lions are placed at the door, and the tiger is vigorous. The store on the first floor is decorated in an antique style, with more than 30 tables and chairs, and a big word for wine is written behind the counter on the first floor, as if he is afraid that others will not know that his family sells wine. Dozens of private rooms are isolated on the second floor, leaving room for guests who pursue luxury. Whether you are a member, the meeting is a great choice. The third floor extends outward for more than one meter, and dozens of wings are set up large and small, and they are divided into three, six, nine and so on.

Since the young people entered the city, they have an understanding of the situation in the city, and the scale of the drunken incense building is not famous in Luoyang City. The word "big" summarizes Zuixianglou as a whole, which is really the most suitable. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there is a storyteller, sitting on the desk, talking about the fairy stories, temple things, and strange legends. In short, there are all kinds of things, all of which are eloquent with one mouth, and the wonderful things are said, and the hall is full of applause. It's a new way for the store to attract business, but the effect is surprisingly good. There is really too little entertainment, and people have a good place to laugh and scold in their spare time.

Inside, the crowd was full of voices, noisy, and full of applause. It turned out that today was the fifteenth, and the young man couldn't help but sigh a little, and he had been out for more than a month unconsciously. It's already the fifteenth day of the lunar month, and I'll be fifteen years old after the New Year.

Under the guidance of Xiao Er, sit down at a table, on the edge of the counter, and watch the storyteller tell the story, and the view is excellent. When the young man came back to his senses, he saw Grandpa Mafu looking at him with embarrassment.

It turned out that Xiao Er was already asking about what kind of food to eat. The groom didn't dare to make his own decisions, and he didn't dare to urge again, the young master had already treated me well, and he couldn't disturb his contemplation. This is the most earthy thought of the groom at this moment.

took the menu card, ordered a chestnut stewed chicken and a Dongpo elbow, plus a black chicken soup and a green vegetable, and my daughter wanted to blanch half a catty.

After a while, the shopkeeper's second-hand feet neatly brought three dishes and one soup and a blanched half-catty daughter red to the table. The steaming one, especially the chestnut stewed chicken, was specially added with the spicy millet that Emperor Han Qing loved to eat, which was full of color, flavor and flavor, and couldn't help but boost people's appetite.

Emperor Han Qing took the initiative to pick up the wine jug and poured a glass for Grandpa Li, who hurriedly took the wine glass and called out to the young master. Let you break the bank, and break the old age.

Young people don't usually drink alcohol, but when they are reading in winter, they burn a pot of Du Kang wine produced in their hometown in the cold weather, drink two taels to warm their bodies, and then pick up the book and continue reading.

It was the first time that her daughter had drunk it, and after pouring a glass for the groom, she picked up the glass and poured herself a glass. Poured into the glass, the hot mist was rising, a hot breath came to the face, and the hand holding the wine glass was warm.

Although it was the first time for her daughter to drink it, Emperor Han Qing had read it more than once in the books. There are so many allusions to her daughter's redness, and one of the allusions is the most heartwarming.

In the past, if someone gave birth to a daughter, the girl's father would brew a pot of wine by himself, seal the bottle with mud and bury it under the roots of the peach tree, take a red paper brush, write down the three characters of the daughter's red and paste it, day after day, year after year, one altar per year; It contains a father's hope that his daughter will be well, and that her life will be sweet and happy. As for how he later entered thousands of restaurants, it was nothing more than the store's greed for the beautiful meaning of his daughter's redness, and for the sake of copper smell, he didn't know where to get the wine-making recipe, which just destroyed a warm allusion.

Emperor Han Qing picked up the wine glass, and took a sip of half a glass that had already entered his stomach.

A stream of heat runs down the mouth and down into the stomach. Immediately, the whole body was warm, and the chill of the snow seemed to have decreased a little.

Emperor Han Qing doesn't know the quality of wine, and wants to come to the merchant to pursue profits, and the daughter red he drinks can no longer be a good wine that his father has treasured for more than ten years, and he can be regarded as a conscientious merchant for two or three years in the year.

In one gulp, the young man took his glass and drank it all, and drank the remaining half of the glass into his stomach in one gulp.

The groom was pouting at the bar, as if he had studied wine. Good wine, I haven't drunk it for a long time, and my daughter is so authentic, if it weren't for the light of the young master today, I am afraid that I will be unblessed in this life.

Hearing this, it made Emperor Han Qing look sideways. The young man who had been listening quietly turned his head and humbly asked for advice. Today's storytelling is about an old way of sitting and talking about the Tao in the Shendu City. Young people have just entered the rivers and lakes, it is difficult to sit in the right seat, they listen vaguely, they don't know what to do, and they don't know what to do.

Mr. Storyteller is an old man with a goatee, wearing a green shirt, polite, rich in figure, and should be a reader when he talks with temperament. The sound is sometimes high, sometimes low, and the pauses are orderly, and the sound of the trees is sometimes beating, awakening the people who follow the plot into it, and then continue to be attracted by the spread of the plot.

Emperor Han Qing was taken aback by this hand. I really don't understand the content, and after listening to it for a while, it's really hard to get it.

"What do you say?" The young man humbly asked Grandpa Mafu Li for advice. ”

Grandpa Mafu Li rarely showed a comfortable and self-satisfied appearance, and entered the inn, but he only promised: "Earn hard-earned money for a lifetime, the first time I set foot in Zuixiang Building, I was afraid and cowered, and I was really uncomfortable." ”

The old man's words changed: "It's not a secret, the old man also has a few daughters." ”

As soon as my daughter was born, I also followed the tradition of brewing a jar of daughter red for my daughter every year. Over time, dozens of jars have been brewed. It's a little bit of a experience!

The taste of the daughter's red is similar, spicy and mellow, with enough stamina, and it is refreshing to drink. The year is more than ten years, the taste is sweet after drinking, the year is shallow, there is an empty wine taste, the mellow taste is insufficient, and the daughter of Zuixianglou is red, and I conclude that there should be more than five years of brewing. The taste is moderate, and the drink is slightly astringent, but it does not affect the taste.

"Brother, good eyesight. "From behind the counter came a middle-aged man, with a mustache and a shrewd look of a businessman.

Xiao Er sent another half a catty of hot daughter red to the guests at this table. It's been a long time since I've met such a knowledgeable guest, and the contemptible person's surname is Zhao, and he is the shopkeeper of Zuixiang Building. Everyone is polite, shopkeeper Zhao clasped his fists and bowed.

After a while, Xiao Er took half a catty of hot daughter red and sent it to the table. After the shopkeeper Zhao accompanied him for a drink, he got up and went to greet the other guests.

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors. The horseman Lao Li was slightly drunk, and Emperor Han Qing beckoned Xiao Er to go to the third floor. The young man also looked up slightly, sat downstairs and sorted out his thoughts for the day, and then went upstairs and fell asleep.

The next day, the city of Shendu was peaceful with singing and dancing. The five Si Chens of the Heavenly Supervisor were performing their duties, routinely, and checking the star orbit and celestial phenomena. An old man with crane hair and a childish face and fairy wind bones came to the wind. If the heavenly prison is like entering a no-man's land, the prohibition is regarded as a non-existent one. Si Tianjian immediately heard a piercing roar, and the enemy attacked. There was a big chaos, and a deputy supervisor led the spring, summer, mid-autumn and winter to come quickly.

The deputy supervisor shouted: Wudang Li Qiushui, what do you want?

It turned out that it was Wudang who was in charge of teaching Li Qiushui here. The old man's expression was flat, and he looked calm and light.

"There is no need to be nervous, I have been closed for 800 years in Wudang, and the period has expired in recent years. The old man watched the sky at night, and the dragon qi of Jiuzhou had changed, and he came to the heavenly supervisor to find out. ”

"The dragon's qi has changed, tell the emperor to prepare early. ”

The old man goes, and the old man says. Slowly fall into the ground and walk down the street.

Since the beginning of the human emperor, in order to prevent the immortal master on the mountain, the first human emperor set up a Shenwu camp to protect the ancestral hall, the imperial palace, and the divine capital.

At this time, the east and west barracks of the Shenwu Battalion in Shendu City quickly gathered 10,000 soldiers of the Shenwu Battalion. After receiving the order, he immediately assembled near the old man, and the old man paced in front of him, and the 10,000 Shenwu Battalion armor soldiers in the rear followed silently, silently. Until the old man walked out of the Divine Capital City, the Shenwu Camp was still motionless.
