Chapter 35 above
The two stayed in the Guoqing Temple, had breakfast on the second day, went out of the temple gate and walked towards the mountain rock for fifty miles, but saw Zhou Hui, the peak and the water were reflected, and the wood was beautiful and the stone was strange. Wang Shi and Zhang Jiandong were walking with little strength, tired and hungry, and there was no place to eat. At this time, seeing such a beautiful scene, I didn't feel tired, I saw a big stream coming from Dongshan, and the water was very urgent, as big as Cao E. Seeing that there were no boats to cross on the left and right, Zhang Jiandong smiled and said, "How about you and I just go over the water?"
Wang Shi smiled: "I'm walking hot, just take a cold shower!"
The two took off their robes, wore only underpants, made a bag of clothes and shoes, tied them to their shoulders, and waded through the water barefoot. I felt refreshed and tired. Wang Shi smiled: "This water is really cool!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, put on their clothes again, continued to walk, walked not a few steps, saw a big hole, the bottom is not deep, can accommodate a hundred people, two rocks on the left and right outside the cave, hang on half of the wall, the hole is full of stalagmites, relative to each other, it is really convincing! On the cliff wall of the cave, the green pine and cypress are green, the grass and trees are luxuriant. Amazing view. And when he went to the well, he saw a well, although it was not deep, the water in the well was gurgling endlessly, overflowing from the mouth of the well, and there was a large rock standing upright beside it, several feet high, standing like a giant. Continue to walk, see a temple, enter the temple and have dinner. On the second day, go out of the temple in the early morning, go six or seven miles to the cold rock, the stone wall goes straight up, such as the axe splitting knife cutting, look up, the cave is widely spread on the mountain cliff, there is a hole on the side of the roadside rock, slowly walk to the hole, when you take a look, this hole is eighty steps wide, it is equivalent to about eighty meters now. Wang Shi wanted to find out, so he went to find some dead branches in the rocks and grass, tied them to a torch, and lit them in the future, and walked all the way into the cave, which was very flat. After walking more than 100 steps, he reached the bottom of the cave, and when there was no way out, he returned to the entrance of the cave. Walking down, I saw that in the rock col, two big stones towered against each other, and the lower part was connected upper, Zhang Jiandong pointed and said: "This is the magpie bridge." It can also compete with that side of the wide stone sorghum. But there's one less waterfall. The two continued to move forward, but when they saw Zhou Hui, the cliffs were like cutting, and the strange rocks were horizontal. The grass and trees hang on it, and begonias are everywhere. Bauhinia, the stream reflects each other, and the mountain breeze blows to feel more fragrant.
Go forward to a mountain mouth, a stone wall straight into the bottom of the stream, the water in the stream is quite deep, look at it from a distance, there are bursts of green and bright dark light, make people look a little dizzy. Walking forward, the road is more rugged, but it is a small hole in the mountain rock, the hole only allows half a foot to be allowed in the hole, forcing the body to pass, looking at the abyss under his feet, Wang Shi can't help but tremble a little with his legs. After crossing the cliff, moving forward, he saw that there was a temple, which was deserted, and Wang Shi saw that there was a woodcutter, and stepped forward and asked: "This eldest brother, do you know why this temple is deserted." ”
The woodcutter said: "I don't know, there were no monks in the temple a long time ago. ”
Wang Shi and Zhang Jiandong walked forward for a few miles, seeing that it was already dusk, but there was no place to stay, and they were anxious. The two returned to Pingtou Pond.
The next morning, out of Pingtoutan, to the mountain road for thirty miles. Crossing the stream into the mountain, and walked four or five miles, the mountain pass became narrow, saw a village courtyard in front, two people came to the front of the village, and saw a plaque hanging on the forehead of the door: Taohuawu.
Wang Shi said with a smile: "This place is really a fairyland, and it has obtained such an elegant name. I wanted to knock on the door to visit, but Zhang Jiandong said: "It's still not delayed if you don't go in." The two turned to the stream, followed the deep pool, only to see the pool water green, and saw a flying spring, flying down from the mountains and rocks, Zhang Jiandong said: "I heard the monk in the temple say that this is the Ming Yu Stream. ”
Wang Shidao: "This name is appropriate. The spring water is rushing down, like a piece of jasper, the sound of the water is rushing, the chirping is not stopped, the word Mingyu is really used wonderfully!"
"Hahaha! I didn't know what it meant, but after Brother Xian said this, it suddenly dawned. ”
The stream turns with the mountain, and the people follow the stream. On both sides of the stream, there are big stones, clusters of rocks, and mountains and greens. If you look at it carefully, it has a different flavor. The two of them went on a tour for several days, went to the side of the road to fetch horses, and saw that the two horses had eaten all the grass in the surrounding forest, and they were so hungry that they began to gnaw on the bark of the trees. led the horse, all the way back to the post station, and rested the horse for two days before setting off. Wang Shi secretly thought in his heart how to rob this silver. I followed the team for a few more days. It is late to a village and town, and the place name is called Zhaiziling. As soon as he entered the village, as the officials and soldiers entered the post station, they raised their eyes to watch the market, but saw the old man with yellow teeth riding a lame donkey, followed by a boy with pigtails, two people and two donkeys, slowly entering the village, Wang Shi was even more suspicious, and said secretly: If they want to hurry, at first, when they were in Tiantai Mountain, they were delayed for several days, why didn't he leave, and now when I follow the officials and soldiers with the silver, he will follow. It seems that this yellow-toothed old man either wants to do something to me, or he also wants to rob this batch of official silver. Wang Shi was fluted at the door. "What are you looking at, come over and eat. You're going to have a good drink with me tonight. ”
Wang Shi turned around and came in to eat, the two of them pushed the cup and changed the lamp, and ate more than a dozen cups, but at this time, it was already the weather in the second half of September, and the golden wind was blowing outside, and the street was suddenly dusty. The messenger in the post house hurried to close the door and put the lamp in his hand. Zhang Jiandong said: "Look at the weather, it's going to rain." As the saying goes, September is the month of decay, and once it rains, the journey is even more difficult. ”
Wang Shi said: "It's good to hurry when it's sunny, but if it's rainy, you can only rest." ”
The two drank deeper, and then they rested. The next day, Wang Shi got up, and when he opened the window to take a look, it was already raining outside the door. The rain was very melodious, Wang Shi knew that this kind of rain came slowly and went slowly, I don't know how long it will take to stop, I went downstairs to have breakfast, Zhang Jiandong sighed: "Sure enough, it rained, but it was delayed again." "Stand in the doorway and watch. The sergeants, seeing that they could not leave today, played cards and drank to pass the time. Zhang Jiandong looked at the door for a while, and then went back to the room. Wang Shi was suddenly in a hurry, came out from behind the post station, and saw that there was a thatched pit by the low house opposite, so he hurriedly braved the rain and went to the edge of the pit to kick east. When he was done, he touched his trouser pocket with his hand, and it was empty, and he secretly complained in his heart, because the straw paper in his pocket had been used up. Looking around left and right, I saw a vegetable patch next to it, and the green leaves in it were growing fat. Wang Shi bowed his waist, lifted his pants, walked to the vegetable field, picked a few large green cabbage leaves, and went to the dung door to clean them. Then he lifted his pants, tied his belt, and straightened his shirt. Just as he was about to walk down the street, the post station officer came to the vegetable field and cut down a few green plants and put them in a basket. The messenger saw a few good green leaves on the ground, picked them up and put them in the basket, and Wang Shi stopped talking about it. Nai asked, "Brother Messenger, what are you doing with this green vegetable?" ”
The messenger lifted the basket and said, "I will make vegetable soup at noon today." ”
Wang Shi couldn't speak, so he walked to the street and saw a crude medicine shop in front of him, with a black wooden plaque hanging at the door: "Jirentang"
Wang Shi's mind suddenly moved, why not go in and buy some croton. Find a chance to be scared in the dish, the soldiers are not bloody, hehe!. Wang Shi couldn't help laughing, and walked a few steps into the store, the shopkeeper, wearing a soap-colored, melon-skin hat, and a collared green cloth gown. is looking down to settle accounts, and his right hand keeps dialing up and down on the abacus. Wang Shi walked to the counter, and the shopkeeper looked up and saw the customer, stopped what he was doing, and said with a smile: "What medicine do you need?" There is a recipe. ”
Wang Shidao: "There is no recipe, is there a croton?"
The shopkeeper stared at him and said with a smile: "Croton, yes, how much do you want." ”
Wang Shi said: "Let's come to a catty and help me grind it into powder." ”
The shopkeeper said, "Do you want raw croton or cooked croton?" ”
Wang Shi said: "I want to give birth to croton." ”
It turns out that this croton only has the function of diarrhea when it is raw, and if a person takes it excessively, it can make people have diarrhea to death.
The shopkeeper grinded the raw croton into powder, wrapped it in paper, and handed it to Wang Shi, who put it in his arms and turned back to the post station.
I went back to the room and lay down for a while, and came downstairs to eat at noon, and saw that there was a bowl of green vegetable soup on every table, Wang Shi just didn't eat it, and put some other vegetables into the meal, and looked up to see Zhang Jiandong serving a big bowl of delicious food, and couldn't help but laugh secretly. At dinner, Zhang Jiandong ordered a few vegetables and asked for a pound of beef in sauce and a cooked goose. Two large urns of wine, invited Wang Shi to drink together.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Zhang Jiandong said: "Brother Xian, you and I are like seeing each other, and the day before yesterday we traveled together, I admired Brother Xian's character and talent, and wanted to marry Jinlan." I don't know what the virtuous brother means. ”
Wang Shidao: "Brother Demeng will not give up, and the younger brother has long had this intention, but he doesn't dare to climb high." The elder brother is the pillar of the imperial court, and the younger brother is just a cloth cloth. Thanks to my brother's willingness to bow down. ”
Zhang Jiandong said: "Even if you are a virtuous brother, you will be in the backyard tomorrow, and you will be in the blood alliance." That night, the two of them ate wine until the three watches dispersed, and the next morning, Zhang Jiandong ordered the servants, carried a chicken, put down the incense case, and pulled Wang Shi to kneel together and worship three times, Zhang Jiandong took out a short knife from his boots, and cut the chicken to the head, and poured blood in the cup, Wang Shi and Zhang Jiandong each held the cup in their hands, and swore together: "Wang Shi, Zhang Jiandong, today is in love, follow the story of Liu Guanzhang, and is willing to become brothers of the opposite sex, not to live together, but to die together, if you violate this oath, you will die under the knife." Huang Tiantu and Thick Earth Practice Words!" The two said their vows, drank blood wine together, entered the house, put down the wine and food, drank wine for a day, and drank until it was deeper and dispersed. On the second day, look at the sunny sky, Zhang Jiandong urged the soldiers to set off, took the silver car all the way forward, stayed in Lu Xiaoxing at night, walked for seven or eight days, arrived in Xianyang, entered the city, here is different from other places, the city wall is tall, the moat is wide and deep, the six streets and three cities in the city, prosperous and noisy, but it is a big city appearance, everyone enters the city, looking for a post station to rest. It is said that this Jiandong is in his prime year, in his thirties, he has been out for two months, and he has accumulated lust on the way. Entered the post station, instructed the soldiers to look at the silver car, went upstairs to invite Wang Shitong to go to the city for a walk, Wang Shi was happy, the two of them walked around in the market, turned a few alleys from the street, and came to a north-south street, only to see the willows planted on both sides of the street, looking up carefully, on both sides of the street, there are dozens of brothels in the green building, Wang Shi secretly said in his heart: the so-called flower street willow lane, is exactly what it says!
The two of them were looking at each other, and two flowery women came out, "Yo! ”
Wang Shi turned around and wanted to leave, but Zhang Jiandong followed the woman into the house, turned around and shouted, "Brother Xian, come in, it's okay to go back anyway." ”
Wang Shidao: "The little brother is not used to this place of wind and moon, so go back first, and my brother will have fun!"
Wang Shi turned around and walked back, looked around the street for a while, and saw that the lights were on everywhere, so he went back to the post station, and was walking, but he saw the old man with yellow teeth and the boy with pigtails at the door of an inn in front of him, and he was getting off the back of a donkey and going to the inn. Wang Shi secretly said in his heart: Why are these two people always ghosted!
Returned to the post station and went to sleep early, the next day Zhang Jiandong came back to the post station in the afternoon, and ate the wine in the evening, Zhang Jiandong smiled: "Brother Xian is really boring, the two women last night, the skin is smooth, it is really amorous." It's a shame that you don't have this Yanfu. Life needs to be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon. ”
Wang Shi said with a smile: "The land of wind and moon is still less to go." The two persuaded five or seven glasses of wine, Zhang Jiandong, because he didn't sleep well last night, went back to the room early to sleep. On the second day, he urged the sergeant to take the silver cart out of the city. All the way to the east, on the road for another three days, Zhang Jiandong gradually felt that the small solution is always inexhaustible, the genital parts are red, swollen and itchy, not five days, it is even more swollen, so that it is difficult to ride a horse, so I have to get off the horse and walk, and after two days, there is a rash on my body, I rested in the city post station in Weinan City, and went to the city to call a Lang Zhong to see, Lang Zhong said: "You are a wind sore, you must go to the fireworks Willow Lane, the land of wind and moon, dyed." The common name is changed to flower willow disease, but it is difficult to treat!" Zhang Jiandong listened, scared out of a cold sweat for a lifetime, Lang Zhong prescribed a prescription, Wang Shi followed to catch the medicine, and then lived in the post station in Weinan City, temporarily cured the disease first, Wang Shi caught the medicine back, took care of Zhang Jiandong every day to take medicine, will be raised for a month, the disease gradually became heavy, day by day, the poisonous sores on the body pierced out of the pus, the medicine stone had no effect, it was like pouring soup into the snow. On this day, Wang Shi boiled the medicine and brought it to the bed, Zhang Jiandong lamented: "I didn't expect that I was a hero in my life, but I died on the Fengyue Field, and I suffered from this wind and flow sore, which is really embarrassing." shamelessly went back to face his wife and children. It's just that this tax money has not been sent to Bianjing, and it has been entrusted by Lord Taishou. I don't know when my illness will be cured, seeing that I will not be able to get up at this time and a half, I will repair a book now, send two sergeants, and send it back to Tianshui County in the future. When my illness subsided, I went home. It's winter weather. The wind is up, and the snow is falling, but it is more difficult to turn. Now I will dictate it, and my brother will write it on my behalf. Write for me. ”
Wang Shi went to get a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, Zhang Jiandong said: "Chengfutai Lord Liu Gongjunjian, I was a quick catch, the day before yesterday I had to be carried by the adult, entrusted with a heavy responsibility, although the liver and brain are smeared, I can't repay this knowledge, when I felt a stubborn illness on the road, fell ill in Weinan, and it was difficult to walk." In front of the present book, I hope that Lord Wang will quickly send a general to escort the silver car. Yunyun. ”
Wang Shi wrote the letter, handed it to the two sergeants, hired two horses in the post station, and the sergeants rode to Tianshui County. Fast horses galloped on the road for half a month, on October 20, the letter was sent to the government, the master forwarded the letter to this Liu Taishou, Liu Taishou read the letter, and said to the master: "Seeing that the silver has been sent to Weinan, this Zhang Jiandong is sick again, how is it good! Who will be sent to replace him now?"
The master pondered for a long time, and couldn't think of a suitable person to come, Liu Taishou said: "If you send the city defense department to the general, how about Sun Jingzhong?"
The master said: "This person's martial arts are on par with that Zhang Jiandong, and he is only except for him, and there is no suitable candidate." ”
Taishou then ordered someone to pass on Sun Jingzhong, and the person who went came back to report that Sun Jingzhong had a cold the day before yesterday and was sick at home.
Liu Taishou sighed and said, "How is it good." "I had to send an order to ascend to the hall and gather the civil and military officials in the state capital. Liu Taishou asked around, but no one was willing to go, so he had no choice but to order the government office, Cai Rengui, the head of the Ma Ban, to go to Weinan to replace Zhang Jiandong to escort the silver car. Before leaving, Mrs. Liu instructed: "Passing Luoyang from Weinan is Bianjing, be more cautious along the way, go early, stay early, and don't be greedy for night roads." ”
Cai Dutou, carrying a simple knife, rode a horse, agreed, hugged his fists and saluted, said goodbye to Taishou, whipped the horse, and ran to Weinan. Along the way, it will be half a month, enter Weinan City, and meet Zhang Jiandong in the post station, and the two of them will finish the amount of silver. On the second day, Cai Dutou took the silver cart and left Weinan and continued eastward. Wang Shi hired a carriage, arranged Zhang Jiandong in the carriage, and sent two soldiers to take care of him in the carriage. Zhang Jiandong rode back to his hometown in a carriage, Wang Shi was sent out of the city gate, and the two said goodbye in tears. Don't pass Zhang Jiandong, Wang Shi rode out of the east gate, chased more than ten miles all the way forward, and saw the officers and soldiers escorting the silver car from a distance, walking slowly in front, Cai Dutou rode a horse, put the Pu knife on the saddle horizontally, and led it in front. On the road for four or five days, it is a densely populated place, and there is no desolate place, it is not easy to do it for a while, on this day, following the team, it has reached the fourteenth day of the lunar month, and the sky is full of clouds. The plastic wind gradually rose, and when it came to Shenpai, a heavy snow was rolled down in the sky, and the snow was getting denser and denser.
The snow is heavy and the fog is dim, and the sky is sprinkled with white flowers and jade.
In a moment, it is difficult to find a way in the wilderness, and there is no trace in the four wildernesses.
The horse's hooves stepped on the broken Qiong chaotic jade, carrying the north wind on his back, following the back and marching slowly, in the evening, into Huayin County, Cai Dutou and the soldiers, escorted the silver car to the post station, Wang Shi entered the city, all the way to the east gate, an inn on the street, dismounted into the store, Xiao Er hurriedly came to greet, since the horse was led to the back trough feeding, Wang Shi ordered a few vegetables and vegetables, asked for a pot of wine.

Just about to go upstairs. Suddenly, a person came in from outside the door, wearing a torn cotton jacket, holding a porcelain bowl in one hand and a three-foot-long bamboo stick in the other.
