After the new rain in the empty mountain, the smell of the earth is very abrupt in the mist after the rain, but it reminds people of the traces left between heaven and earth by the dripping rain.

In the mountain temple, the fire was bright and uncertain, burning all night, there was still residual temperature, Jiang Ayuan and Han Shen opened their hazy sleepy eyes, stretched their waists, but saw that Tang Xiake and Wang Yuanbao, the bearded swordsmen, had already packed their bags, looking at the hazy mountains and official roads outside the mountain temple.

Seeing that Jiang Ayuan and Han Shen woke up, Tang Xiake, a young man with a bearded sword, said with a smile: "Hurry up, we still have to hurry, the road of one hundred and eighty, we have to take advantage of the mud, if you don't hurry up, it is estimated that you will sleep in the muddy water tonight." ”

Rubbing his sleepy eyes, Jiang Ayuan nodded, it has become a habit to hurry, the original mind of reading on the road has long been unknown, and the reading has not stopped, but the scenery along the road is not in the mood to watch carefully, what she sees is always the same scenery, except for the towns with different customs that can arouse her interest, everything else is just ordinary.

Fortunately, with Wang Yuanbao, my heart will not be boring.

Han Shen got up and looked at the hazy rain and mist outside the gate of the mountain temple in a daze, and didn't know what to think again.

Wang Yuanbao handed the wild fruit in his hand to Jiang Ayuan, who had been combed with dew, although there were no wild birds and beasts in this mountain, but fortunately, there were many wild fruits and could fill the stomach.

However, Tang Xiake, a young man with a bearded knife, is not interested in this somewhat sour wild fruit, in his opinion, as long as it is not meat, what remains is something that can fade out of people's mouths.

Jiang Ayuan chewed the wild fruit that was a little sour, but the aftertaste was sweet, and asked, "How far is this to Jiankangjing?"

Although he asked how far away from Jiankangjing, what Jiang Ayuan thought in his heart was that it was best to slow down, Jiankangjing could go as far as he could, as long as he could go with Wang Yuanbao, there would be no problem if he could walk as long as he could.

Wang Yuanbao scratched his head and said, "I haven't been to Jiankangjing either, so there should be a long way to go." ”

Tang Xiake, a young man with a bearded knife, said, "Don't you know how to sell geographical territories when you go out?"

Wang Yuanbao and Jiang Ayuan glanced at each other and said innocently: "I don't know." ”

"Alas, I'm really convinced!"

Tang Xiake, a young man with a bearded knife, covered his face and was speechless for a long time, although he was prepared in his heart, he still defeated these two "naïve" chicks.

In fact, all the state capitals and counties in the world actually have Kanyu maps for buying and selling the territory of various countries, which are all deduced and portrayed by the people who specialize in mathematics among the hundreds of princes with the help of the monk Feng Xu.

Fine, no less than the collection of the palace in the national palace map, every newcomer to the rivers and lakes has a map, to Wang Yuanbao and the three of them all by the direction, it is really speechless, so like a headless fly all by the direction of the road, I am afraid that next year may not be able to go to Jiankangjing.

Tang Xiake, a young man with a bearded knife, had no choice but to take out a map of Kanyu with exquisite workmanship but rounded corners from his bag, spread it out on the ground, pointed to a mountain range and said: "We are here now, to Jiankangjing, we have to go through the Sanchuan River waterway for 800 miles, the four Longquan Dynasty vassal states, about two miles by land and water, we have to go to the capital of Fengshui Kingdom, there are still 180 miles, to Jiankangjing, we are not the mountain immortal masters who can resist the wind, it is estimated that we will have to walk for a few months." ”

After that, Tang Xiake, a young man with a bearded swordsman, pointed to a city with extremely complicated painting on the Kanyu map and said, "This is Jiankangjing." ”

Wang Yuanbao looked at the landscape road on the Kanyu map, a little surprised, he thought that he would be able to reach Jiankangjing along the direction, but now this idea has completely shattered Tang Xia's Kanyu map.

On the contrary, it is Jiang Ayuan, who is at peace in his heart, as long as the road is far away, if he arrives in Jiankangjing, it is the moment of parting, no one will like to part, especially with the person he likes, but don't have more or less, it is better to be alive.

But what we can be together is an extremely precious time.

Han Shen got up slowly, and the three of them didn't urge him, now the fog under the mountain has not dissipated, the mountain road is still slippery after the rain, and in the fog, he can't see the road under his feet clearly, but he will suffer a lot.

So the three of them were not in a hurry, the hazy fog cleared a little more, and they could go.

The fog is hazy, no one can see clearly under the mountain and on the mountain, nor can they see the path up and down the mountain clearly, just like a fairyland in the clouds, and the people on the mountain and the people under the mountain, what they can see is only hazy fog.

When Wang Yuanbao and his party went down the mountain, the fog dissipated a lot, but there was still a little residue, making the green willows not far away silent in the haze, and it was more hazy and beautiful.

The official road after the rain, although it is still muddy, but it is much easier than walking against the wind and rain, last night's rain, in the second half of the night stopped, bit by bit, fell on the empty steps, the sound of the ear.

Without the wind and rain blocking the progress, the footsteps of Wang Yuanbao and his party are not slow, and the journey of one hundred and eighty miles is nothing under their feet, not to mention, Jiang Ayuan and Han Shen still have donkeys to walk.

The official road after the rain is much easier to walk than in the rain, without the night rain to block, Wang Yuanbao and his party of four people are much faster, and the journey of one hundred and eighty miles has the bearded knife boy Tang Xiake, the "old guest" of the rivers and lakes who is good at talking, is not boring, all kinds of strange news about the rivers and lakes, as well as the funny jokes in the Jiankang Jingli of the Longquan Dynasty are endless, causing Wang Yuanbao and Jiang Ayuan and Han Shen to laugh incessantly.

Han Shen even said to Tang Xiake that the blood was boiling, the eldest brother was called the eldest brother before the halfway point of the journey, the young people are the most stubborn, and they are also the most fickle, when they are stubborn, the eight horses can't pull it back, let you be the king of heaven Lao Tzu is the same, you are afraid of your temper, and you are fickle, but you are willing to do such things as a smile, so Han Shen recognized that his brother did not surprise Wang Yuanbao and Jiang Ayuan too much.

Han Shen recognized the bearded swordsman Tang Xiake as a cheap big brother, and he kept pestering Tang Xiake to tell him about his experience in the rivers and lakes, the immortal master on the mountain, the ranger under the mountain, he was not bored with it several times, and Tang Xiake was also tired of it, after all, it is not easy to find a confidant, friends in the world are easy to find, but confidants are difficult to find.

Han Shen recognized a cheap brother, but Tang Xiake was not a person who was willing to be a cheap brother, so when Han Shen changed his words, he gave Han Shen the dagger he had in his waist.

Wang Yuanbao didn't stop him, it's always good to have multiple friends, and besides, he is still an old-fashioned and hot-hearted Tang Xiake, although he is good at talking, but he is a hot-hearted character in the drama.

This journey is really harmonious.

............

Compared with the harmony of Wang Yuanbao and his entourage, Tongcheng Technology, the capital of Fengshui Country, is not so tranquil and tranquil, the rain has just stopped, but the dark clouds have not dispersed, but they are dense in the sky, and the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, but it has rained, is there still rain?

Naturally, there is.

But the depression of the mountain rain and the wind full of buildings makes people breathless, but this depression can never stop people's yearning for the hustle and bustle.

In the market, the hustle and bustle, want to find a quiet place in the bustling and lively Tongcheng, than in the Qinlou Chu Pavilion to find an innocent sister is more difficult, but for people, the most unbearable is loneliness, and compared with the solemnity of the ordinary capital, Tongcheng, the capital of Fengshui country, is more market-like, and even there are stalls for buying and selling things next to the palace.

However, there are still quiet places, and the solemn atmosphere is only the Taimiao and Wu Temple on Jingshan behind the palace city can give people a solemn feeling.

The martial arts of Fengshui Country are prosperous, but the cultural context is weak, and even the scholars who study in Taixue, the highest institution of learning in a country, are very few, and the Confucian Temple that worships the sages in the Confucian Temple of Jixia School Palace is even more rare than the morning star, not to mention the vigorous incense.

In fact, from the history of the Longquan Dynasty, it can be seen that the Fengshui State is not prosperous because of the cultural context, the Longquan Dynasty is based on the old military leaders with military power, and the authority above the court is in the hands of these old military leaders who hold military power, and even the now famous Zhongnan Academy was established decades ago. After teaching in the border army of the Longquan Dynasty for three years, Shengsheng turned a corrupt army with low combat effectiveness into the main army that the Longquan Dynasty relies on the most, and the emperor of the Longquan Dynasty nodded and accepted the existence of the scholar and the Zhongnan Academy.

And the monarch of Fengshui Kingdom, who was born in the royal family of the Longquan Dynasty, is even more so, and he knows that the whole leopard is also based on the old military leaders in the army, and the people who hold the authority above the court are all old military leaders who hold military power, and the scholars have become the pen sticks that specialize in giving voice to the old soldiers.

This is also the reason why the incense of the Fengshui National Confucian Temple is not prosperous, and the Confucian Temple in the market has long become a place for the peddlers to drown.

However, there are still scholars in the court of Fengshui Kingdom, I don't know if it is to appease the scholars, or to balance the authority of the old military leaders in the court.

If it is possible to kill people in the court, I am afraid that this scholar Zai Fu would have already broken the corpses of these old military leaders, but with the experience of depriving the military rights and exterminating the family and destroying the family, these old military leaders are extremely honest.

But discerning people have long seen that what the monarch of Fengshui wants to do now is to take back half of the military power above the court.

The Autumn Luhua Restaurant in the market is very lively, not only because of the novelty of the dishes in the Autumn Luhua Restaurant, but because there is a pot of good wine.

Wine shops, more, are still people who drink, only eat vegetables but do not drink, and in the market language of Fengshui Country, they are synonymous with women.

A scholar in a cyan robe walked into the wine shop, and he didn't hear the hustle and bustle around him, and walked straight to a window seat at the end of the wine shop, while the lively Xiao Er hurriedly served the wine.

This is a distinguished guest, the shopkeeper has specially instructed, don't ask anything when you come, just serve wine.

At the moment when the wine jug was placed on the table, the lively wine shop was suddenly deserted, and a pair of resentful eyes that chose people to devour, staring at the indifferent Tsing shirt reader If his eyes can kill, I am afraid that this Tsing shirt reader will not even have scum left.
