Volume 2: Jiangnan Spring Chapter 067, Southward

This Yangtze River, which has the same name as the original earth, is not inferior to the Yangtze River in width, although it flows in a different direction.

Standing on this side of the river and looking across the river, all you can see is the vast wilderness and the military buildings that stand on the wilderness.

This Yangtze River separates Dongyang and Shu, and you can face each other across the river from both sides, but if you want to go from one country to another, you have to get a fixed port wharf.

At first, Tian Zhiyu thought that Ma Bencai's cargo ship was also a larger ship, but when they arrived at the dock that day, they realized that his cargo ship was simply bigger than they imagined.

The ship was about thirty meters long, two stories high, and the cabins were divided into three levels, each with a dozen rooms. The fishing boats around it were like small fishing boats and cruisers together.

Ma Bencai saw that Tian Zhiyu and Wu Lihan were surprised, and said proudly: "How about it, our old horse's boat is magnificent enough, right?"

The two of them nodded and boarded the boat after Ma Bencai.

After boarding the cabin, Ma Bencai seemed to suddenly remember something, turned around and said to the two: "Actually, there is one more thing, due to various reasons, I have not told the two of you, this time we are going south, there are two guests on the ship, due to the special identity, I can only inform you when I am on the ship." ”

"Which two?" Tian Zhiyu asked, in fact, he had already vaguely guessed.

"You know Zhiyu well," he said, leading them into the cabin, through the hallway of the first room, to the open hall of the second. Tian Zhiyu saw that there were already two people sitting there drinking tea, it was Luo Qi and Nuan Yue.

Seeing them walk in, Nuan Yue stood up, and Luo Qi smiled and said: "Zhiyu, let's meet again, I originally wanted to ride back to China, but the horse boss said that it was inconvenient to ride a horse in winter, and invited us to go by boat, I thought that the time was about the same, so I agreed." ”

Tian Zhiyu also hurriedly saluted Luo Qi and said, "It's a great honor to be able to go south on a boat with Luo Xiang," he said and glanced at Nuan Yue, and saw that she just lowered her head and didn't look at herself.

Thinking that the last time she was in Luo Yuanqiu's mansion, after she read the poem Liu Yong's poem to her, she looked like this, did that poem annoy her? Tian Zhiyu recalled that poem again and again, there was nothing too excessive?

Ma Bencai introduced Ulihan to them again, and then the five of them sat down at a tea table, chatting and waiting for the ship to depart.

By noon, when the sun had finally cleared all the fog and moisture, and the visibility ahead was suitable for sailing, the helmsman came in and told Ma Bencai that he was going to sail, and a few people walked up to the bow of the boat to admire the spectacle of the ship leaving the dock.

Tian Zhiyu looked towards Taiyuan City, although he had only lived here for more than half a month, he was already colorful enough.

In addition to accompanying Shi Guangying to participate in football matches and the banquet of King Jin at the beginning, after living in Taiyuan City, he met Su Yijin and fell in love for life, helped Yuan Zishan and Tian Jing brothers and sisters, killed a middle-grade master Zheng Luqiu, and saw the strength of the top master, everything is of great significance.

Now that he is about to leave here and go south, and he doesn't know when he will come back, Tian Zhiyu suddenly felt extremely melancholy.

While he was pondering, Wu Lihan pulled his sleeve, pointed to a teahouse on the dock and said, "Look, to the rain, is that Miss Su?"

Tian Zhiyu hurriedly looked over, who else was standing there instead of Su Yijin?

She was still wearing men's clothes, looking at the slowly starting boat, although she couldn't see her expression clearly, Tian Zhiyu guessed that she must be crying at the moment.

At this moment, Tian Zhiyu couldn't wait to jump down, hugged her into his arms to comfort her, and promised her to stay and not leave, but thinking that there were other people around him, he finally dispelled this idea, and just turned a thousand words into a wordless gaze and looked at her affectionately.

"Miss Su is really affectionate to Zhiyu, and she will send you to the dock at the risk of being recognized, Zhiyu, you are really blessed. "Ma Bencai said.

Tian Zhiyu didn't answer, his thoughts suddenly returned to when he was about to leave Su Yijin's house this morning, Su Yijin didn't cry, nor did he feel too sad, he just hugged him tightly, and gave him the piece of jade pendant he was carrying, and he didn't give him a thousand instructions, only said: "The mountains are edgeless, the heavens and the earth are together, the winter thunder shakes the summer rain and snow, but dare to be with the king." Jin'er will always be here waiting for her brother. ”

As the boat slowly sailed away from the dock, Su Yijin's figure became smaller and smaller, until he couldn't see it, and Tian Zhiyu didn't say a word.

The others saw that he was not in a high mood, and they didn't speak loudly, Ma Bencai whispered something to Luo Qi, Wu Lihan looked at the two sides of the strait and was distracted, and Nuan Yue looked at it for a while, and then went back to the inner cabin.

Although the Yangtze River has thawed, there is still a lot of broken ice on the river, so the boat is not going fast. Only such a large boat dares to drive such a river, and the small boat is afraid of danger, and it is not the fishing season, so there are basically no other boats on the way.

One afternoon, Tian Zhiyu sat on the boat in a daze. In the past ten years of his life, he has always felt that he has no worries and can go wherever he wants, so when the organization asked him if he would like to participate in that project, he agreed without much thought.

came to this planet to live freely, especially when Ma Bencai told him about the rivers and lakes here, which made him determined to go back in style, until he met Su Yijin.

At the beginning, when Su Yijin poured out her heart with the help of Wen Suyi, Tian Zhiyu was only moved and moved, and did not feel that she would definitely fall into it, but after half a month of getting along, Tian Zhiyu really liked her.

In addition to her beauty, what makes Tian Zhiyu's heart move even more is her amorous and versatile, such a woman is the most suitable partner for Xiaoao Jianghu, Tian Zhiyu has thought about waiting for two years to accompany her Hongchen as a companion, chic.

Before leaving Taiyuan, he felt that two years was a very fast time.

The two years in the army he felt like a white horse, and the nine years in the orphanage he felt like a snap of a finger, let alone the time he spent on the streets before going to the orphanage.

But when he saw Su Yijin standing alone on the dock, watching the boat drift away, his heart was suddenly pinched, and he instantly understood that when a person has an unforgettable concern in his heart, the time of separation will be like years.

In winter, it was dark early, and when night began to fall, Ullihan came out and called him to eat.

Tian Zhiyu cleaned up his mood and walked back to the cabin, at this time Ma Bencai and the three of them were sitting at the dining table, and all kinds of wine and food had been placed on the table, waiting for Tian Zhiyu to come back and start the meal.

This table is full of chicken, duck, fish and meat as usual, and Ma Bencai also took out his own treasured good wine in order to please Luo Qi, which is very rich.

Originally, Tian Zhiyu didn't have much appetite, but at the moment, in addition to Ma Bencai and Wu Lihan, as well as Luo Qi and Nuan Yue, he couldn't be disappointed, so he sat down and chatted with a few people.

"Zhiyu, I heard from Lao Ma that you and Wu Lihan will stay there after they arrive in Yuhang, but do you have a specific purpose?"

Tian Zhiyu was stunned, in fact, when he first decided to go to Jiangnan with Ma Bencai, he didn't have a specific purpose, just because he had a very good impression of Jiangnan when he was on earth, thinking that the area around Suzhou and Hangzhou is not only rich in products, but also has many beautiful women, which is the most ideal place to explore the rivers and lakes.

Later, after slowly getting acquainted with this world, I knew that the major sects in the rivers and lakes were relatively scattered, and almost every sect had a sect that supported the faΓ§ade, and it was not realistic to fight with each sect, so I could only wait for a gathering like the Qilin Tea Party to meet the masters of each sect.

At that time, he thought that Gangnam Province was not far from Kirin Island, and if he stayed in Gangnam Province, he might be able to go to the Kirin Tea Party during the Mid-Autumn Festival. No

Since being crushed by Zheng Wuqiu with absolute strength, he has clearly realized that his martial arts are almost impossible to participate in this year's Qilin Tea Party, and the next tea party will have to wait until five years later, who knows what will happen at that time.

So his thoughts were a little shaken at first, and after he arrived in Jiangnan, he traveled with Wu Lihan, and then went to the next place to go around, or Lingnan Road, or Jiannan Road, which are all places where masters gather. Now that Luo Qi asked this question all of a sudden, Tian Zhiyu didn't know how to answer for a while.

He thought for a while and said, "Don't hide it from Luo Xiang, at first I thought that when I went to Jiangnan Dao with Brother Wulihan, I could have the opportunity to visit a sect like the Jiangnan Sword Society and learn from their disciples, but now it seems that with our level, people may not be willing to see us." So at the moment, there are no good plans, so let's go to Yuhang to take a look first. ”

Luo Qi smiled and said: "Actually, you don't have to stay in Yuhang for too long, we also have a lot of heroes and heroes in Shuguo, such as our national teacher Zhang Fengzhi, who is also a master of the family, where you can also find opponents who learn martial arts." Besides, it is likely that your talent will get ahead as soon as it is sparse, and maybe it will cause a trend. ”

In fact, Luo Qi also has selfish intentions when he says this, that time in Luo Yuanqiu's house, he and the other two had the idea of loving Tian Zhiyu, and Luo Yuanqiu and Zhang Fengchen meant that Tian Zhiyu, as a native of Dongyang, should stay in Dongyang and set an example for the revival of Dongyang's literary world.

However, Luo Qi privately believes that Dongyang has now formed a solid gate valve rule, and it is difficult for young people with no relationship background to rely on themselves to emerge.

However, because the founding time of the People's Republic of China is much shorter than that of Dongyang, and there is no gate valve family that has been passed down from generation to generation, young people still have many opportunities to realize the dream of carp jumping over the dragon gate.

The most important thing is that compared with Dongyang, the sparse literary world is even more talented. Perhaps because the emperor was not so reluctant to commerce, and the coastal area was economically developed, young people were more willing to take the path of business, and they were not very keen on the imperial examination in exchange for fame, which created a situation where there was no successor in the literary world.

Not to mention that few of the younger generation have done a good job of poetry and songs, even the middle-aged generation, most of them are bureaucrats who advocate the uselessness of literature, and they are more willing to write some articles with gorgeous rhetoric but nothing to say, and sneer at the concept of "literature carries the Tao" that he has always promoted.

Therefore, Luo Qi hopes to find a way to bring Tian Zhiyu to Shu and train him to become a leader in the younger generation, maybe he can change the current embarrassing situation.

He knew that he might anger Luo Yuanqiu and Zhang Fengchen and the others by doing this, but if he could really change the Shu literary world, let alone anger them, even if he offended the entire Dongyang, he didn't care.

Tian Zhiyu thought for a while and said, "Thank you Luo Xiang's praise, but for now, I still want to stay in Dongyang." I learned some about Zhang Guoshi's situation from Brother Ma, and I admired it very much in my heart, but I am afraid that it will be inconvenient to come to the door at the moment, and I will definitely visit if I have the opportunity in the future. ”

Luo Qi was the vice minister of a country in the end, and he didn't want to be too condescending, so he just smiled, and then looked at Nuan Yue.

Nuan Yue understood his eyes, when the two of them chatted idly in the past few days, Luo Qi had inquired about their relationship openly or secretly, and there was a faint hope that Nuan Yue would persuade Tian Zhiyu in his words.

Nuan Yue was embarrassed and annoyed, thinking to herself that Luo Xiang would be able to use her beauty to attract Tian Zhiyu to Shu, so every time she came to this topic, she often took care of him and changed the topic.

Now he looks at himself again, clearly showing that he is unwilling to surrender his identity as a lobbyist anymore, and wants to let himself come forward, and the implication is self-evident. Nuan Yue ignored his hints and continued to eat by herself.

Ma Bencai was a little embarrassed when he saw the scene, and immediately interjected: "You don't have to rush to conclusions about the rain, we have to go to Yuhang for about half a month, and we have to stay in Yuhang for four or five days, you have to think about it for the past twenty days." If you are willing to stay in Yuhang, I have a house there, just like Taiyuan, you and the Wulihan brothers live casually, just like your own home, if you want to go to Yuhang with us, it is best, or after staying in Yuhang for a while, you can go to Shu, tell me, there are ships coming and going at any time. ”

Tian Zhiyu said: "Zhiyu He De can let Luo Xiang and Brother Ma take care of it like this." If Zhiyu and Brother Wu Lihan are not satisfactory in Yuhang or Dongyang, they will inevitably have to bother a few people. As he spoke, he looked at Nuan Yue and saw that she was still silent and did not speak.

After returning to the room at night, Tian Zhiyu looked outside through the window and saw that it was pitch black everywhere, and occasionally three or two lights could be seen, all of which were far away on the shore. This world without electricity takes on a pristine black color at night.

In a big city like Taiyuan, you can still see the lights of thousands of homes, but at this time there is only boundless loneliness, if it is not for the sound of water and rhythmic paddling, I really suspect that this is a lifeless world.

Tian Zhiyu packed his luggage, except for the clothes he ordered last time and the silver ticket given to him by Ma Bencai, there were not many other things. He carried the jade pendant that Su Yijin gave him, and he put the Tao Xun that he gave him in his baggage. At this time, he took it out and sniffed it gently, and there was still the smell of Su Yijin's body on it, Tian Zhiyu couldn't help but put it to his mouth and blew music.

He still plays "The Original Scenery of Hometown", although the voice is deliberately lowered, the melodious song still easily floats through the window and into the quiet wilderness.

Also sitting by the window and meditating were Luo Qi Nuanyue and Wu Lihan, who were surprised at first when they heard the music coming from Tian Zhiyu's house, and then immersed in it, and they were all stupid.
