Chapter (26): Drink the Moon

(26) Put the wine in the month

Thinking of this, this master decided to stop it, which can be regarded as working for the benefit of the local people. He immediately gathered the virtuous squires of the nearby villages overnight, and everyone split up to prepare for a swift move. After two days and two nights of overtime work, everyone finally built a Jade Emperor Hall in a hurry, and invited a statue of the Jade Emperor from somewhere else.

This is the story that on the third day, a "temple" frightened Liu Bowen away, thus saving the lives of the nearby people. It is said that later Liu Bowen repeatedly searched for the worldly master who lived in seclusion, but he did not find it.

When everyone arrives at the top of Kameyama Mountain, take a break. The group left only Xiao Maitreya to guard the wine and equipment, and the others immediately looked around to find a suitable place to camp and drink for the month.

This turtle mountain does live up to its name, and it looks like a giant tortoise from a distance. It's just that in the middle of the place raised a cliff tens of meters high, the cliff is steep in all directions, only in the shade of the north there is a sheep intestine path that can go straight to the top of the mountain, and everyone went up to the top of the mountain from there just now.

In other parts of the cliff, it is basically difficult for ordinary people to climb with bare hands, especially the cliff facing the sun in the south, which is the most difficult to climb. In recent years, there have been a lot of outdoor climbers who practice rock climbing. On the sunny side of this cliff, several small climbing competitions have also been held.

It is precisely because of this easy to defend and difficult to attack terrain that many battles were fought here during the original war years. Up to now, there are still remnants of intermittent bluestone walls of varying heights around the top of the mountain, and there are several small watchtowers that have collapsed around them. You must know that in the era of cold weapons, this kind of steep terrain, with countless stones and self-made bows and arrows on the mountain, can indeed effectively resist those mountain bandits.

But in the later warlord melee and the War of Resistance Against Japan, under the modern guns, this kind of place naturally greatly lost its great power. But from the degree of damage to the thick walls and watchtowers around the city, it can be seen that there were some tragic battles here.

After looking around, and finally in a low-lying and hidden place on the east side of the mountain, the lone wolf found a relatively well-preserved watchtower. This watchtower, it seems, was supposed to be a two-and-a-half-story watchtower, which was used for lookouts and arrowtowers during the war. It's just that the upper layer and a half have completely collapsed, and only the whole lower layer remains.

The lone wolf and the mute cleaned up for a while, and rebuilt the large bluestone that had collapsed on it, and formed a semicircular wall about one and a half meters high in the windward position. Then I cleaned up all the small pieces of stones on it. was cleaned up by the two of them, and a space of more than ten square meters was vacated on it, which was just right for everyone to sit on the ground.

After the two of them packed up, they immediately greeted everyone, and after a while, all the people and food and equipment were on it. Everyone looked at the fruits of their labor and praised the two of them one after another. Not to mention, this place is not only sheltered from the wind, but also on the top of the first floor, which can be kept away from the infestation of those grass insects below.

In addition, it has a wide view and a clear wind and a bright moon, which is an excellent place to talk about wine in the moon. It was almost eight o'clock in the evening, and there was absolutely no audience here except for the small wild animals on the hill and the ghosts in the cemetery below. Everyone can just let go, and drink him drunk and rest. It's a big deal, and finally the tent was fixed directly, and everyone slept on it until dawn.

Thinking of this, everyone began to prepare for drinking. Jing Xin and the doll hurriedly laid out the outdoor carpet they brought, and the laughing Maitreya and the prodigal son immediately put all the wine, vegetables, fruits and those ready-to-eat vegetables one by one, and the lone wolf and they also prepared a few bags for garbage. It's all set, everyone is drinking.

It seems that everyone in Lotus Mountain has completely eliminated those two resentful spirits and eliminated the huge hidden dangers that have been hidden in the Three Realms for hundreds of years. Therefore, on the night of this midyear festival, the goddess of the moon specially favored everyone and specially rewarded a good full moon night. On this clear and moonlit night, everyone raised their glasses and sang and drank happily, pushed the cup to change the lamp and stroked the fist order, played happily, and drank happily.

As he was drinking, Jingxin suddenly raised his glass to the lone wolf alone, and said: "I said Brother Wolf, I heard the old man say when I was a child, on this turtle mountain, it looks like a cliff tomb of the Han Dynasty. But today, when I went up the mountain and looked around for a suitable picnic place, I took a closer look and found no clues. Your brother wolf often holds rock climbing activities here, do you know the specific location of this Han Dynasty cliff tomb?"

The lone wolf drank a glass of wine and said with a smile: "I have heard that there is a cliff tomb of King Lu of the Han Dynasty on this turtle mountain, but I have never found its specific location. Two years ago, several friends from the Cultural Relics Bureau invited me to conduct a careful exploration of this turtle mountain, but in the end, it was not successful. However, according to a friend from the Cultural Relics Bureau, there is really a clear record in the chronicles of YZ City. Yes, in the northeast of the old town of YZ City, there is a turtle-shaped hill. It is said that this hill is deep with dragon, sand, hole, water, and the situation of it, and there is a cliff tomb of King Lu of the Han Dynasty on the mountain. As for which king of the Han Dynasty Lu was, there is no clear record. On that expedition, I was asked to help as a guide, but in the end I didn't find anything. Not to mention that no valuable clues have been found in the cliff tomb of King Lu of the Han Dynasty, and even the proper tomb road and sealed soil have not found any traces. ”

The mute suddenly raised his head and interjected to say a clueless sentence: "The front mountain is on fire, and the back mountain is smoking!"

Laughing Maitreya said: "Yes, I seem to have heard the phrase 'the front mountain is on fire, and the back mountain is smoking'. I remember when I was a child, the old people said that this turtle mountain was not originally called turtle mountain, but what kind of basket mountain. It is said that it is said that it is said that if you light a fire somewhere in front of the mountain, you can emit thick smoke somewhere in the back mountain, which is what is called 'ignition in the front mountain, smoke in the back mountain'. This statement sounds very mysterious and evil, as if this turtle mountain is empty. There is also an even more sinister theory that when it rains heavily in the summer, you can hear a rumbling sound near Kameyama. ”

The prodigal son took a sip of the wine and said with a smile: "What is this, I have also heard those idle waiting for death soldiers, sitting at the entrance of the village on the street and idle." But I firmly believe that they are all idle and uncomfortable nonsense. You don't want to look at all these years of crazy quarrying, what has become of this turtle mountain, the first half of the mountain is about to be blown up. If there really was any Han Dynasty cliff tomb you talked about, it should have been blown up a long time ago. So, I guess this is a story within a story, a legend within a legend. Don't talk about it, just talk about the things we just experienced during the day, why didn't I hear you quote the scriptures and tell me why? ”

The doll followed and coaxed: "Yes, what is this, I dare not record the facts that should be really recorded, but the things that should not be left are hyped up, what are the things." In the 5,000 years of China, there are a few people who are really loyal to history, and I estimate that after Sima Qian, the chief of Ma Zichang of Taishi Company, I am afraid it will be difficult to find a person who is faithful to write. Like all the ...... in modern history. Forget it, let's not talk about this kind of topic, if you say it, it's really ruining our Yaxing of the month of wine today! Come, come, come, I propose, everyone has a glass of wine. Let's be free Nine Immortals just do the kind of idle clouds and wild cranes that 'I am happy in the mountains and forests, and I am proud of myself when I am drunk', so we don't bother to care about those bullshit and idle things!"

When they heard this, they all raised their glasses and drank them all. Subsequently, on the top of the empty mountaintop, the prodigal son and the doll, the laughing Maitreya, the Mengshan turtle, and the little Taoist priest knocked on the wine glasses and bottles, sometimes slowly, sometimes excitedly chanted the famous poems and sentences that Xiao Qingfeng usually wrote indiscriminately - "I am about to leave, and the wind and rain are ...... Tears and cloudy wine...... Butterflies and clouds...... I can't wait to be drunk and sad for a long time...... Where is life not permanent", "Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting Jun and laugh, tea sword love Yi Lin Feng", "My favorite in my life is drunk, obsessed with watching the green shirt floating", "The fragrance hits people on the bright moonlit night, and the dream is self-intoxicated", "Renshan Zhishui hugs the simple green, and looks at the autumn breeze and asks Tsing Yi"......

Just when everyone was singing the wine as a song, Jingxin suddenly touched Xiao Qingfeng lightly with his hand. Xiao Qingfeng knowingly followed the hint of meditation, and inadvertently meowed to the top of the mountain behind with his eyes. On the commanding heights of the summit, a white figure flickered by, floating from the top of the mountain to the cliff behind.

Xiao Qingfeng slowly stood up, saying that he would accompany Jingxin to walk around and let everyone continue to drink. The two of them pretended to take a walk without delay, and slowly walked to the top of the mountain, and after a while, the two reached the top of the mountain. At the top of the mountain, the two chatted casually while looking around. I saw that around the cliff, except for the bare rocks and the occasional flying pheasant, nothing else was found.

Jing Xin whispered: "I just now inadvertently seemed to see a strange white figure-like object in the position where we are standing now, but before I could see it clearly, it disappeared all of a sudden, did you see it just now?"

Xiao Qingfeng said: "Yes, when I received a hint from you, I pretended to drink with a wine glass and secretly glanced over here. I should have seen a white shadow as well, and it disappeared in a flash, but I didn't see if it was a person. I vaguely felt as if it was a white plastic film, quickly drifting towards the cliff behind me. ”

The two talked quietly for a while, and then walked around the top of the mountain, still not finding anything. Jing Xin thought that he might have mistaken the white plastic film scraped from the farmland below the mountain for a human figure. This is my own heart, a false alarm, think about who will go to the top of the mountain alone at this time, after all, it should be almost eleven o'clock at night.

Then, the two chatted and turned back. At this time, everyone was drinking happily, and most of the half boxes of liquor should have been dried up by six or seven bottles, and some had even begun to change to green beer. The prodigal son and the Mengshan turtle were arguing about this with a red face. Seeing Xiao Qingfeng and Jingxin coming back, everyone just gave up the place a little, and no one asked them what they were doing just now.

After a while, I saw that the time was almost past midnight. All the liquor was almost wiped out by everyone, and even the green beer was mostly wiped out. Everyone is also full of wine and food, and I feel that it is interesting enough. The prodigal son and the Mengshan turtle, both of whom drank a little unsteadily, fell directly on the semi-circular stone wall that had just been built, and continued to brag about something.

Laughing at Maitreya and the doll, while packing up and pretending to be garbage, they scolded these two wine cats who were closer to wine than to their father. The doll said: "I said fat brother, if these two fathers and wine bottles fall into the river at the same time, who will the two of them save first?"

Laughing Maitreya said: "Needless to say, I think the two immortals will definitely go to get the wine bottle first, and that is really the 'life' of the two of them." Their father is old and useless anyway, and if he drowns, he will drown, which just reduces the burden of aging for the country. But if the wine bottle falls to the bottom of the river and breaks, or is washed away by the river and can't be found, then these two immortals will be distressed to death, hehehe......"

At this moment, the drunken prodigal son suddenly grabbed the conversation, bit his big tongue, and said, "That's natural! Stinky turtle, he, he hated and hated his dead ghost old man, old man. He, he definitely won't save him, no, if he doesn't take a bamboo pole and pound it down, then, it's okay! As for me, we don't, we're not so unfilial! However, you must know that the ancestor of my family is also a hero on the periphery of Shuibo Liangshan! I want to think about it back then, I want to call it a brother and a brother to that white-striped chicken Zhang Shun in the waves! My ancestor is naturally the same, and I have also learned a good water nature, what Ling Bo micro step, what the moon is fishing for in the bottom of the sea, and what is turning the river and the sea, that is all trivial. So far, our Ah Lang is also the master of all the rivers and rivers! Not to mention my nagging old man, that old man can do more than me! I still need to save him, it would be good if he didn't drink my wine in the water. Besides, what monarchs and ministers, ministers and ministers, I still write according to the poems of the Hou Ye, 'The scholar vibrates the sword and roars, the sun and the moon are small in the drunk......;

Mengshan Turtle said: "Just, just like you, it's okay, I'm embarrassed to read the poems of our Hou Ye." How many inspirational words and phrases are there, you can't remember, just, fuck, remember this......" Before he finished speaking, he seemed to struggle to touch the garbage bag and vomit. Everyone stepped forward to take care of the two of them, and counted the two of them for being too greedy for alcohol.

However, at this moment, a grumbling sigh suddenly came from a distance. Although the voice was extremely soft, since that strange white shadow appeared and mysteriously disappeared, Jing Xin and Xiao Qingfeng had been paying careful attention to every move around them. This sigh was clearly heard by the two of them. It's just that this grumbling sigh doesn't sound like it came from a human voice, it's very weird, it seems to be made in a mysterious ventriloquise.

This is because people are also good at ventriloquism, so she can hear it at once, which should be issued by people with a certain amount of internal kung fu in ventriloquism. And it can be clearly heard that it is the tone of a young woman. Behind the sigh of resentment, there seems to be endless depression and helplessness. After a while, there were two more identical sighs in succession, but this time the sound was more obvious, except for the prodigal son who drank too much, everyone heard it clearly. But when I looked around, I still didn't find anything.

At this time, the prodigal son, who was already drunk and dizzy, seemed to have noticed that something was wrong with everyone, and asked Jing Xin beside him. After listening to Jing Xin's explanation, the prodigal son stood up and scolded loudly: "Fuck, what is it, hurry up and get out of here." There are nine immortals here, which way demons and monsters dare to make a time, hurry up and show up, look at the master, I won't tear you apart!"

As soon as everyone saw him go down, they all jumped down and followed, leaving only the dumb and laughing Maitreya who was cleaning up things behind. Don't look at the prodigal son staggering and staggering, he is really not slow, and he will reach the top of the mountain in three or two clicks. He stood on top of a big rock and continued to shout: "Fuck, you have the ability to come out, come out and let Lang Ye see." It just so happened that during the day today, Lang Ye and I planted a big heel in a daze, and the resentment in my stomach has not yet been vented. You bastard have the guts to speak up, so you have the ability to stand up for me, do you hear? If you don't come out again, I'm going to scold your parents, brothers and sisters for eight generations......"

Xiao Qingfeng frowned, and was about to speak out to stop his shrewd-like scolding. Suddenly, something that I don't know what it was flew from an unexpected tricky angle, and it flew into the mouth of the prodigal son. I heard the prodigal son scream and fall backwards. The doll next to him, when he hurried to look, saw the prodigal son with a mouth full of blood, falling to the ground and still whining and screaming. The lone wolf crouched down and saw that the prodigal son had been hit in the mouth by a small piece of gravel. Not only were the two upper front teeth honorably laid off, but even the upper mandible was dislocated by the dark force of the gravel. The lone wolf quickly put his maxilla back in place, and asked Doll and Laughing Maitreya to clean his wounds.
