"It's okay, you just apologize to the person concerned. Tang Yuan said lightly.

"Okay, thank you, brother. Huang Mu said respectfully.

After Huang Mu finished speaking, he walked to the Huang family's table, and after sitting down, he immediately started talking with the other Huang family members.

It was half an hour in a flash, and the Tang family and the Huang family finished breakfast and set off in the direction of the Li family.

"Brother Tang, are you riding horses? We are going on foot. "Golden Road.

"We're the same, walking, exercising. Brother Huang, please lead the way this time, I'm not familiar with this side. Tang Yuan hugged his fists.

"Howler. "Gold is refreshingly authentic.

Gold walked in the front to lead the way, the formation of the Tang family and the Huang family was very scattered, the Huang family was on the left, the Tang family was on the right, and the two were not mixed together.

Tang Yuan looked at the gold in front of him, thought of Zhao Chenfeng, and said in his heart: "This gold, temperament is somewhat similar to Zhao Chenfeng's kid, they are all so frank, observe for a few days, and then see if he is worthy of deep friendship." ”

They are still more than ten miles away from the Li family, that is, after walking this half-day journey, they can reach the Li family.

On both sides of the road are woods, with lush foliage, not only trees, but also other plants, lush and thriving, and life is very vigorous.

Everyone walked briskly, and a few of them hummed a little song, all wanting to arrive at Li's house earlier.

Tang and Huang walked together, they were still a group of teenagers, couldn't bear the boredom, it didn't take long for the two families to put aside their grudges, began to chat and discuss, walking for a long time, everyone gradually became acquainted.

Tang Yuan, Tang Jiu, and Huang Jin's minds were quite mature compared to them, and they didn't play around like the latter ones.

Jin was unknown, leading the way in front, turning back from time to time to say a few words, Tang Yuan and Tang Jiu just nodded after hearing this, remained silent, and walked forward.

"Brother Tang, there is a river in front, which is the diversion of the Tianjiang River, this river is called Jiaohe, according to legend, there were dragons living in ancient times, so it was named. Gold said suddenly.

After the golden words, there was a commotion behind Tang Yuan and the others.

"There are dragons living in it, and I want to go and see it. ”

"I want to go too, is there really a dragon in this world?"

"It's all said, it's a legend, what's there to see, it's important to hurry. ”

"Tianjiang? We are south of the Tianjiang River, so let's call it the Jiangnan area. Tang Yuan touched his chin and said.

"Brother Tang, you're right, we're in the middle reaches of the Tianjiang River now. Gold said as he looked at the woods on his right.

After hearing this, Tang Jiu looked forward, his heart was full of curiosity, he hadn't been out of the Tang family a few times, and he hadn't even seen a stream, let alone a lake or river.

"Let's pick up the pace and move forward as quickly as possible. Tang Yuandao.

As soon as Tang Yuan's words fell, Jin Jin said to the back: "The one behind follows, let's go faster." ”

Curious, everyone hastened forward, and through the gap in the trees on the right, they could faintly see the turquoise river and hear the clear and loud chirping of the stork.

Tang Yuan and his party continued to move forward, the woods on the right did not continue to extend, and they were cut off here, and the woods on the left were still flourishing and full of life.

They twisted their heads to the right, and a long river came into view.

This river is not as grand and spectacular as Tang Yuan imagined, the river surface is calm, like a quiet lake, and the river channel is also very narrow.

"This should be Jiaohe, right?, why is it so narrow?" Tang Yuan said.

"I also think it's quite small, not atmospheric at all, can this also be called a river?"

Jin Jin waved his hand and said: "Because this is the lower reaches of the Jiao River, that is, the end point of the river's flow, the water flow is not turbulent. ”

"No wonder, it's completely out of touch with the river I imagined. Tang Jiu, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke, making the gold on the side feel a little uncomfortable.

"Let's go and see, I haven't been here in a long time. Gold suggested.

Tang Yuan and the others walked to the riverbank, the river water was clear and turquoise, and the river was endless, but not turbulent.

They grabbed the stones from the riverbank, threw them so hard that they flew into the air, and then slammed into the river, making several splashes and rippling, and the soft sound of the water rattled like a trembling silver bell.

Just as they were having fun, the old voice suddenly sounded in their ears: "Hey, you wild children, don't throw stones down, I'm fishing." The voice appeared at this moment, and it seemed a little dissonant.

Everyone looked at the source of the sound, and an old man appeared in their eyes.

This old man was dressed in a robe, wearing a hat on his head, with white eyebrows and white hair, a long and gray beard, his face was full of wrinkles, and he was holding a fishing rod made of bamboo in his hand, and he was looking at Tang Yuan and the others with his eyes.

All eyes were focused on the old man, and Tang Yuan said timidly: "Old man, what do you want to do? ”

"No need to go. The old man said, waving a fishing rod.

The old man made that action, and everyone felt bad, so they took a step back, and they didn't dare to come out, staring at the old man tightly.

"It's not good, you have to find a way. Tang Yuan said secretly in his heart.

Tang Jiu stepped forward to protect Tang Yuan, and said jerkyly: "Old man, please respect yourself, don't bully the small with the big." ”

"Do you think I'm that kind of person?" the old man looked at Tang Jiu and waved his fishing rod again.

The crowd responded to him with a mouthful of tongues: "I think so." ”

"I have no intention of driving you away, I am also alone here, no one to greet me, as long as you do not make too much noise, I will allow you to stay here, if you want to come and see me fishing. The old man said indifferently.

The old man's expression showed a little helplessness, and his voice was full of vicissitudes.

The crowd listened before they let out a sigh.

"Is that so? We'd like to watch you fish, right?" Tang Yuan said with a frown.

There was a happy voice behind Tang Yuan, and after the old man heard this, he returned to the place where he was originally fishing, and Tang Yuan and the others followed.

The old man sat on a wooden box, next to him was a fish cage, and there were no fish in it, and his back made people feel a little lonely in the eyes of everyone.

The old man kneaded the fish food into a ball, hung it on the hook, and skillfully threw the rope, which fell smoothly into the water.

When the old man saw the hook enter the water, he began to hold on to the rod and closed his eyes.

Everyone was silent, watching the old man's operation, and sighed in their hearts that the old man had superb fishing skills, and they were patient and waited for the fish to take the bait.

After a quarter of an hour, the rod swayed, and the old man immediately got up, opened his eyes, and pulled the rod to the shore.

When he exerted his strength, the fishing rod dragged up without feeling, he dropped the fishing rod directly, his eyes lit up, his toes touched the ground, and he instantly soared into the air one foot high, his feet connected the dots back, and his body swooped forward, his toes entered the water, and then stepped lightly on the water, his right hand was like an eagle's claw, stretched into the water and pinched, a carp appeared in his hand, his toes touched the water, raised a splash, and floated to Tang Yuan's side.

"Light work on the water!" the crowd exclaimed.

"Grandpa is good at martial arts. ”

"The old man looks old, and his body is still so flexible and tough, amazing. ”

The old man returned to his place and sat down, threw the carp directly into the fish cage, raised his head and said, "Light work is just a trivial matter, you will know when you grow up." ”

"Senior, with your skills, you can catch fish directly, why do you still fish?" Tang Yuan asked, seeing that the old man was so agile and thought that he was a person who practiced martial arts, so he changed his name.

The old man suddenly laughed and said, "Little baby, you don't understand this, catching fish directly, it will inevitably be a bit boring, and fishing is different, fishing can exercise a person's patience, but also cultivate a person's observation ability, and can also cultivate a person's mind very well, the scene you just saw is because the fish is unhooked, I can't let the hooked fish swim away, so I catch the fish." ”

"I see, you go ahead. Tang Yuandao.

It didn't take long for the rod to shake again and another fish took the bait.

"This fish can't run away, it's already bitten on the hook, come up for me." The old man pulled the fishing rod back and smiled.

A carp fell into the fish cage, and the old man looked at the fish cage, and there were only two of them in the fish cage at this time.

"Now the fishing is too slow, it's getting dark, you little babies can't eat the rain, I went straight to the river to catch it. The old man said.

The crowd cheered in the back.

"Actually, this old man is very good, I just misunderstood people, it's really ......" Tang Yuan was a little ashamed in his heart.

The old man once again performed light power to float on the water, catching like a cormorant on the water, and in the time of a stick of incense, the old man returned with a full load and caught more than a dozen carp.

Tang Yuan thought in his heart: "This old man is very good at kung fu, has keen eyesight, and is a strong man. ”

"Boys, go find some firewood and come back, and I'll grill the fish for you to eat." The old man cried out with a kind face.

When they heard this, they immediately went to the woods to look for dry firewood.

"It's been a long time since I've seen so many babies, and this is just a flash in the pan, maybe I won't see it tomorrow. The old man sighed.

The old man looked at their departing backs, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

A quarter of an hour later, everyone brought a lot of firewood, and after putting down the dry firewood one by one, they looked at the old man expectantly, but Tang Jiu returned empty-handed, following Tang Yuan all the time, avoiding the others.

The old man noticed Tang Jiu, glanced at him, and said, "Good job, babies, let's prepare to make a fire." ”

The old man skillfully began to drill wood to make fire, and after a while, the fire was lit, and the so-called crowd gathered firewood and the flame was high, and the old man carefully put the firewood on the fire that had just been lit, and the flame immediately burst up, like a hot poisonous tongue.

The old man began to clean the carp, remove the scales, disembowel, he was really handy, and a dozen fish were cleaned in his hands.

The old man took a handful of bamboo skewers and many spices from the wooden box, ran the bamboo skewers from the belly of the fish to the whole body, and made dozens of fish in the same way, and put them aside.

Then the fire was burning, two fish in one hand, roasted on the fire, and soon the aroma overflowed, and everyone on the side had to swallow saliva.

The old man held four fish in his left hand, picked up the seasoning in his right hand, and skillfully sprinkled it on the grilled fish, the fragrance was even stronger, and it came to the nose, making everyone's saliva "fly three thousand feet".
