49 Water conservancy is blessed and thousands of miles, and the snoring is invincible
"This Jiangyan is really a big project for the benefit of the country and the people, I really can't imagine that the ancients have such wisdom, I waited for a thousand years late, but I still sigh to myself!"
Tong Lu sighed. Xiao Yi and the three of them stood on the hillside by the Dujiangyan, overlooking this heirloom water conservancy, and their hearts were surging. Xiao Yi replied,
"Isn't it, if you build it now, I'm afraid it may not be better than it!"
Tong Lu nodded,
"What a miracle! If you can go back more than 1,000 years ago and see the completion of this weir with your own eyes, it will be really full of pride!"
Xiao Yi smiled,
"Lu Lu, why don't we go to the middle of this weir to swim and have a good experience?"
Tong Lu's mind shook and he replied,
"It's already autumn, the water is very cold, how can my little body stand it! Besides, this weir can let you swim if you want to?"
Xiao Yi replied to him,
"You see that there are officers and soldiers stationed there! This weir is so important, and it is reasonable to have officers and soldiers stationed there. However, I asked the people in the Tang Sect that this Dujiangyan is more maintained by the villagers themselves, and the officers and soldiers are actually only playing a threatening role. If we want to swim in the water, just let the disciples go over and say something! By the way, you must not know that every year during the Qingming Festival, the villagers here will also hold a grand water festival, and it is not the right time for us to come, or we can open our eyes!"
Tong Lu nodded slightly,
"So that's the case, just say hello? Tsk, that's really amazing! In my opinion, the power of the Tang Sect is too great, maybe one day you will be targeted by the government, and you will find an opportunity to reduce your power! Brother Xiaoyi, as an elder of the Tang Sect, you have to worry a little more!"
Xiao Yi replied,
"This is natural! Although the ancestor said that this matter was decided by the ancestor himself, but the world is impermanent, maybe one day the emperor is unhappy, he will want you to die! Therefore, we still have to be prepared for danger in times of peace and make more plans!"
Bai Qing pointed to the diversion and said,
"Brother Xiaoyi, you said that if we go down this water, we can get to Chengdu?"
Xiao Yi replied to her,
"Yes, this Dujiangyan has divided several waterways and moistened the territory for thousands of miles, so this Chengdu can become such a rich place!"
Bai Qing said again,
"Brother Xiaoyi, did you say that the disciples of the Tang Sect can get a boat? It's been a long time since I've been on a boat, so let's take a boat over, that's great!"
Xiao Yi smiled and replied,
"It's not that hard to do that! I'm going to ask them. ”
Xiao Yi summoned the disciples of the Tang Sect who came with him, gave a few orders, and several people immediately took the order. Tong Lu sighed,
"It's really amazing, I think you just let them die, I'm afraid I won't hear a single objection! This Tang Sect disciple is really dull and cute!"
Bai Qing also said,
"Yes, I can't rush away, the three of us are together, and we want so many people to send each other, it's really embarrassing!"
Xiao Yi replied to her,
"There's no way, since the old ancestor has spoken, they will definitely carry it out! This team of people just sent us to Chengdu, and after that, we will be free!"
Tong Lu shook his head and smiled,
"Brother Xiaoyi, you think beautifully! There are Tangmen forces in the entire Shu, and when you arrive in Chengdu, you will be guarded as a treasure by changing a wave of people!"
While the three of them were talking, someone came to report,
"Elder, the ship is ready. When are we leaving?"
Tong Lu grinned and said,
"It's really amazing, I didn't say a few words before I dealt with it!"
Xiao Yi replied to the disciple,
"If you go down this river, you can get to Chengdu, and there will be no danger, I think you should go back sooner!"
The man shook his head and said,
"Elder, you've said this many times. The old ancestor has ordered that you must be sent to Chengdu before you can go back!"
Xiao Yi wanted to say more, but the man said,
"Elder, don't worry, I have prepared two boats, one for the three of you, you can drive yourself, we will follow aside, and we will not disturb you!"
Xiao Yi's heart can only be like this, so he replied to him,
"That's good, that's good. Let's go!"
The boat was floating in the water, and a Tang Sect disciple led people to stand on the shore, and when he saw Xiao Yi and a few people coming, he shaved the rope of the boat and sent it over. Xiao Yi took it and asked Bai Qingtong Lu to get on the boat first, and he talked to the disciples before turning over and getting on the boat.
In the past few months, the rain has been abundant, and the river is much wider than usual, but it has not yet flooded the farmland on the shore. At this time, it is already autumn, the rice on both sides of the bank is golden, like a velvet blanket, the wind blows the fragrance of rice, refreshing people's hearts.
"Look at this farmland, you will know the wealth of Chengdu, it is really the kingdom of heaven, and being an official in this Chengdu Mansion is even happier than being a big official next to the emperor!"
Tong Lu stood on the bow of the boat and sighed with emotion. Bai Qing laughed at him and said,
"Lu Lu, are you thinking that the Tiangao Emperor who is an official is far away, and no one cares about corruption and perversion of the law at will in this Shu!"
Tong Lu replied seriously,
"How can I have such a bastard idea! But what you say is also true!"
The water speed is extremely fast, and he can already go fast without Xiao Yi rowing. A few people were laughing and eating some dry food. It only took half a day to arrive at a water bamboo forest, Xiao Yi saw that it was not far from the city, so he pulled over the boat and the three of them went ashore together. Xiao Yi gave those Tang Sect disciples some silver money, and asked them to buy some delicious food and fun to treat themselves when they went back. The two boats parted.
"Brother Xiaoyi, look, there are a lot of things in this bag!"
Tong Lu carried a big burden and pretended to be very heavy. Xiao Yi asked,
"Hey, where did this come from?"
Tong Ludao,
"The Tang Sect disciple gave it just now, saying that we might be able to use it on the road! It must be the arrangement of the ancestors! I'm afraid that you won't accept it, so let me take it, hehe, I'll open it and take a look!"
Tong Lu put the burden at his feet and opened it excitedly.
"Wow wow! Brother Xiaoyi, I've wanted an arrow box for a long time, look at this, it's so beautiful, oh no, it's two! This is this, it's an old bottle of wine, the ancestor is really understanding! And this big bag, haha, it's silver, it's silver!
Xiao Yi Baiqing came to check, there are a lot of things in this baggage, most of them are the necessary things to go out, Xiao Yi is grateful, but he misses his ancestors. Xiao Yi took the small arrow box and said with a smile,
"I want this little one to be just right, hehe, Lu Lu, if you dare to bully me in the future, I can aim at your ass and take a look!"
Tong Lu laughed and said,
"I have it too, I'm bigger, it depends on how good you are, or mine!"
Xiao Yidao,
"It's not early in the day, I see a lot of huts in this bamboo water, let's find a place to live first, and then come back to enjoy this scenery!"
Found a room near the water, the house is dilapidated, the roof is empty, and the wind pours in from all sides, which makes people's hearts cold. Tong Lu hugged each other with his hands and shuddered,
"No one lives here, and it's very ventilated, let's change places!"
The three of them were just about to come out, and someone outside the door was talking,
"Hmph, don't listen to it, hmph, it's your own to suffer losses in the future! I'm really angry, I'm so angry!"
Xiao Yi opened the door, and the man fell into his arms. Xiao Yi smiled and patted him on the back, the man was so frightened that he fell backwards and fell straight into the water.
"Oh, you little brother is too timid!"
The man was fluttering in the water, but he couldn't do it, Xiao Yi handed the long stick over, the man stopped one end, Xiao Yi pulled him up with a slight effort. Xiao Yi found a clean dress for him to change into, and said with a smile,
"Little brother, you are really powerful, you don't know how to water when you live near the water!"
The man spat out a mouthful of water, coughed twice, brushed the hair on his forehead, and Xiao Yi blurted out,
"Hey, why are you so familiar, where should we have met!"
The man looked at the three of them suspiciously, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said,
"Yes, yes, the last time I went to Dali, I met you on the shore of the grass sea!
The three of them thought about it, and Tong Lu laughed dryly,
"Did you go to find another girl later?"
The man's face turned red and he said shyly,
"I, it's rare for me to meet a girl who can chat, and it's only that time in Dali!
Xiao Yi smiled,
"Of course you can, but I'm afraid you won't be able to live in this house!"
The man smiled,
"It's an abandoned thatched hut, and I come here occasionally for one night. You see the water bamboo outside is crisp, the birds are singing, and it is so uncomfortable to live here!"
The man closed his eyes slightly, his face full of intoxication. Tong Lu laughed,
"And besides, the mosquitoes and flies are also very cheerful!"
Everyone laughed, and Xiao Yi asked him,
"You're going to stay here tonight?"
The man nodded,
"Yes, it's quiet here, sleep soundly!I wonder where you want to go?"
Xiao Yi looked at Bai Qingtong Lu and said with a smile,
"We might as well fix this house and live here tonight. I haven't lived in this kind of thatched house for a few days, but I really miss it!"
Bai Qingtong Lu had no opinion, and the man also applauded,
"So good, so good. I'm going to find something to eat, so that I can do my landlord's friendship!"
Xiao Yi saw that his eyes were extremely clear, and he suddenly had a good impression and asked him,
"By the way, I don't know what your name is?"
The man had already gone to the door, and when he heard this, he turned back and chuckled, and said,
"My name is Xie Xie! Xie surnamed Xie, Xie of Water Pavilion!"
The three of them raised their thumbs and said in unison,
"Good name, good name, really good name!"
Xie Xie smiled with satisfaction and left. Tong Lu asked,
"Why don't you think he took the time to fix the house?"
Xiao Yi smiled,
"At a glance, I know that this kid has broken his brain by reading, except for reading and writing, eating and dressing, and everything else, I'm afraid that he won't know anything!"
Bai Qing also laughed and said,
"I look at his eyes, they are as innocent as a child!"
Xiao Yi nodded,
"yes, yes, that's why I found an excuse to fix the house for him!"
Just do it, there are a lot of green bamboos by the waterside outside the house, Xiao Yi didn't take a while to pick up dozens of long bamboos of uniform size, he cut the bamboo joints into ordinary lengths, plugged all the holes in the hut, and covered them with a layer of mud. The windows around were handed over to Tong Lu and Bai Qing, and the two of them competed, and they all did a decent job, and Xiao Yi couldn't tell the good from the bad. The three of them looked around, and they were very satisfied, and it was also dark. Xiao Yi lit a fire in the house, and the three of them sat by the fire and waited for Xie Xie to come back with food.
After waiting for a long time, there was finally movement outside, but it was a little strange, the footsteps took a few steps, stopped for a moment, and then walked a few steps, and so on, and so on, and so on, The person who came was Xie Xie, and I don't know what the hell was going on. Xiao Yi asked him,
"I said Brother Xie, what's wrong with you, why have you walked for so long?"
That Xie Xie's chest heaved and heaved, and he hadn't caught his breath yet,
"I, I ......"
He was speechless for a while, Xiao Yi had already guessed that he should just be afraid of the dark, so he stopped while walking, and he hadn't been able to calm down until this time. Xie Xie handed a paper bag in his hand to Xiao Yi, and Xiao Yi took it and saw that it was a pile of green beans. Xiao Yi asked him with a smile,
"Brother Xie, will you invite us to eat this?"
Xie Xie was a little embarrassed and replied,
"At this hour, I can only buy these!"
Xiao Yi knew that he must have a difficulty, and deliberately said,
"Our favorite thing to eat is this green bean, roasted with such a fire, tsk, this taste is really wonderful!"
Tong Lu's pot has long been prepared, the previous one has already fallen into the Dadu River, and this one is refined by skilled craftsmen in the Tang Sect of Yangna, and the materials used are extremely high-quality, and it will definitely not be worse than the one made of iron and stone. He urged,
"Hurry up, hurry up, my chest is already attached to my back, and if I don't eat two bites, I'm going to starve into a cake!"
Xie Xie was extremely happy to hear them talk like this, and of course, looking at him, he was already very hungry. Xiao Yi turned the green beans in the pot, the beans were heated, and they kept making a sound, and the fragrance had already wafted out, which made people have a great appetite! Xiao Yi said to Xie Xie,
"Brother Xie, how about you taste it first!"
He took some fine salt and sprinkled it on it and handed it to Xie Xie. Xie Xie grabbed a few with his hands, and he didn't care about the heat, he blew and sent them to his mouth, Xiao Yi looked at him like he hadn't eaten for a long time.
"Don't worry, don't worry, be careful of burning your mouth!"
After Xiao Yi finished speaking, he glanced at Tong Lu, Tong Lu smiled and took out a roast chicken from his arms, he sniffed it closely, licked his mouth and said,
"Oh, this smells!"
Xie Xie drooled when he saw it, and Tong Lu said again,
"Hey, it's just cooled a little, Brother Xiaoyi, you can take it and bake it hot before eating!"
Xie Xie's eyes stared at the roast chicken, and Xiao Yi couldn't bear to tease him anymore, so he said,
"This chicken is yours!
Tong Lu had another one in his hand, and Xie Xie swallowed the saliva that was about to overflow. Xiao Yi handed him the chicken, and he took it and nibbled on it. Xiao Yi said busily,
"Eat it when it's hot, but don't spoil your stomach!"
Xie Xie said with a smile in his mouth,
"It's okay, it's okay, my stomach can stand it, I can stand it!"
Xiao Yi doesn't know why he is like this, maybe his family is not good, he has grown so big, and he has not eaten a few good meals. Tong Lu also took out the wine, and ate Xie Xie in a daze. The three of them ate the leftover roast chicken, plus the green beans Xie brought back, which was just enough for this meal. After eating, a few people lay down next to the fire and talked, Xie Xie and the three of them gradually became acquainted, and they talked more.
"I'm a native of Chengdu! I'm too familiar with this place! How about I'll take you around tomorrow when I'm free?"
Xiao Yidao,
"Of course this is the best, I've only been here in a hurry once, and I haven't even entered the city!"
Xie Xie said again,
"Not far from here is Simon, and it won't be long before we get there. It's better to go around here early tomorrow morning, and it's almost noon, and then go to the West Gate, where we can buy some wine and food to satisfy our hunger!"
Tong Lu asked him,
"What's the fun around here? Just looking at the water and the bamboo?"
Xie Xie sat up and said solemnly,
"No, no, I'm here to pay homage to the saint in my heart!"
The three of them were confused, Xie Xie frowned and asked,
"Don't you know that not far from here is the thatched cottage where Du Fu stayed back then! Du Fu's life was full of twists and turns, ups and downs, and after coming to Chengdu, it was here that he left countless masterpieces. I look up to him as a saint and admired him all my life. ”
Only then did Xiao Yi understand,
"I see, then we can go over and have a look! By the way, when I met you during the day, what did I say I didn't believe you, what happened, what happened?"
Xie Xie was angry and replied,
"Hmph, those people are extremely shallow! Not to say that among the heroes of the Three Kingdoms, the Cao thief general Dian Wei is the most powerful! He also said that Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong are just a small guard, if they are against Shang Dian Wei, they can't stand him twice! I couldn't get angry, and I quarreled with them, but there were many of them, and I was not good at arguing, so I was defeated!"
Xiao Yi's eyes widened and said,
"That's it?"
Xie Xie was still angry, and said,
"This Shu country's fierce generals are like clouds, Guan Yu, Zhang Feima, Chao, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, which is not a peerless general who can stand alone! Coupled with Zhuge Kongming's clever calculation, it is called an invincible! It's a pity that the fierce generals will eventually get old, and they have been calculated by traitors, and they have exhausted the luck of Shu! But their heroic stories have been praised by the world! What is the identity of Dian Wei, and how can he be compared with them! Oh yes, if you are interested, I can also show you the Wuhou Temple!"
Tong Lu shook his head and said,
"What's so beautiful about a tomb! I think it's best to eat and drink well! But then again, these figures of the Three Kingdoms have passed a hundred years, and they can still have such an influence in Chengdu?"
Xie Xie nodded and replied,
"In Chengdu, men, women and children all know the Three Kingdoms, and they often mention the characters in their daily chats! Oh yes, there is also the singer who paints his face in different shapes and jokes about the Three Kingdoms! Although I have only seen one or two shows, I also like it very much!"
Tong Lu replied,
"It's not bad to watch the show!Brother Xiaoyi, let's play for a few days first, and then go to find out how the garlic seniors are!"
Xiao Yi nodded,
"It's okay, anyway, I haven't seen you for so long, I don't care about waiting a few more days, just play more and go again!"
As he spoke, there was a super snoring sound, and Bai Qing laughed out loud,
"Listen, this Brother Xie Xie is snoring, ordinary people are really not his opponents!"
Tong Lu laughed,
"Look at his body and bones, he is also a very small and weak master, but I never imagined that this night's formation is quite good, admire and admire!"
Tong Lu poked Xie Xie with a stick, he chirped a few times, turned sideways, and continued to howl in a different direction. Bai Qing took out three earplugs from his bag, Xiao Yitong Lu took one each, and the three of them put them on together, snickering, and after a long time, they slowly fell asleep.
