Volume 1 Mo Shang Boy's Journey Chapter 43 A cup of wine drunk mountains and rivers
Since 10,000 years ago, the Divine Dynasty collapsed overnight, and since then, the pan-land realm has begun to enter an era of turmoil.
When the Divine Dynasty was prosperous, the Divine Emperor gathered the power of the world to create Jiuding together, which was regarded as a symbol of the supremacy of royal power and the unity and prosperity of the country. Later, due to the disappearance of the Divine Dynasty in history, the nine people with the highest prestige in the world at that time became the great power and divided the countries.
The east soil is rich in products, the land is fertile, the irrigation is convenient, and the farming conditions are superior, and it has always been the best land for the founders of the country. And the remaining six people are convenient for the Southern Hills, the West Pole Plateau, the Sea of Zhongzhou, and the Northern Wilderness to establish the Six Kingdoms. Among them, there are two countries of Nanmeng and Luosi in the hills of Nanling, most of Qingling in the West Antarctic Plateau, Changxia and Qishun in the sea of Zhongzhou, and the northern wilderness and pastures are the tents of the king of Chuting.
The nine countries each hold a tripod, the gods of the mountains and seas, pacify the troubled times, build fields and camps, build cities and cities, the national strength quickly recovers and grows, for thousands of years, the pan-land realm has regained the prosperity of peace and tranquility, although there are frictions between countries from time to time, but in terms of the general trend of the world, it is still in the era of peace in the country.
Dongtu, Kishang.
If a person's cultivation is to reach the realm of refining the spirit and transforming the gods, wandering outside the world, going all the way to the east, following the east passing water of the Da Qu River, chasing its return, you will see an endless majestic mountain range, which will sandwich the Da Qu River under the gate of heaven, and the turbulent Da Qu River will be like a shocking sword will eventually return to the sheath and lie down, and then diverge into different big rivers and streams, flowing into the eastern land boundary, nourishing the land, enriching the people, and finally quietly merging into the East China Sea.
The first mountain of this mountain system is called Chaoge, with its peak has a natural stone arch into a gate, in this mountain range, it is also called Tianmen Chaoge.
Tianmen Chaoge connects Kongsang Mountain in the north, the Tanshui River system in the east, and dominates the Dongtu Plain, which is a major natural barrier in the eastern land boundary. It blocks the outer soil, crosses the stalk in the north of the river, the southern foothills, there is a vast and boundless forest, so the land of the east soil, the mountains and rivers moisten the soil, the water vein flow system is extensive, the mineral and wood resources are rich, in the five places of the pan-continent, the most favored by God, so the world also calls the east soil - the imperial palace of the sky.
The song of Tianmen is at the upper end of the Ji, with its steep mountain, it has established a natural danger for the defense of the kingdom of Ji.
The realm of the Ji Shang is painted according to the song of the heavenly gate, so the place of its capital is also called the song of the court.
Asakajo Castle is the first capital in the first period of the Chronicle, and it is the first capital city called "Kyoto" in the eastern land boundary.
"The Dragon Court is opened above the gate of heaven, and the nine heavens are leveled by the twilight song. β
As the first empire of the Eastern Empire, the prestige of the Song Castle has always served as the central capital of the Three Kingdoms of the Eastern Territory, and compared with the capitals of the two countries in the clouds and the two countries, its thick cultural exchange heritage has attracted many talented people to come.
The castle is vast and magnificent, and the entire capital is like a chessboard, well organized. Its radius reaches more than 100 hectares, the scale is magnificent, the shape is regular, the Weishui that runs through the south and goes to the river to diverge, the west winds around the Yang River, the east is close to the end of the Tu Shui, and the south looks at the song of Tianmen. It follows the shape of the White Emperor City of the Divine Dynasty, with a three-story city wall that is different from the inside and outside, and the region in the city is strictly distinguished. The criss-crossing streets divide the city into more than 100 districts, and there are two cities in the east and west, and the common people live in each square.
In the city of songs, there are three major families standing here. It must be known that a capital city is the first capital area backed by the imperial palace, and seven or eight out of ten of the area of the city should be used to build the imperial city, which belongs to the person on the phoenix chair in the depths of the palace wall.

In the evening, the orange sunset floats in the west of Changshan, and the dusk of late autumn always comes quickly, and the sun sets into the west mountain before the water vapor evaporated by the sun on the mountains and fields dissipates.
The wind in the valley carried a heavy coolness, driving away the white mist and drifting down the mountain, and the shadow of the mountain peak fell more quickly into the city of Chaoge.
East of the city, Gu Mansion.
The afterglow of the slanting sun reflects the color of the mountains and waters, and the light sprinkled on the river is like many gold needles and silver threads, swaying with the water waves. The clouds are like a multicolored pair of hands on it like plucking the strings, and the melodious and graceful sound of the piano diffuses in the elegant and quiet courtyard.
A wisp of mountain breeze blows on the lake in the courtyard, stirring the lake surface and bringing ripples. The water of the lake is clear, there are hundreds of fish heads, all of them are like empty swimming and nowhere to go, the glow is thorough, the shadow cloth is on the stone, it is not moving, and it is far away.
"The pond is clear and the water is shallow, and the lotus knows that the fish are scattered. β
There is a pavilion in the lake, which is connected with the promenade on the shore of the lake and stands in the middle of the lake. It uses the high-quality pear blossom wood as the material, the eaves are warped, there are many different beast faces, the spirit flowers and different grasses, the lines of the flowing clouds and mountains and rivers are carved on it, and the most eye-catching is the double carp playing beads at the top of the pavilion. Its north to the gate of heaven to sing, south to the water, between the jump, there is also the meaning of "carp jumping over the dragon gate".
It is for the fish pavilion.
At this time, across the distance of the lake, on the corridor connecting the Zhiyu Pavilion, a figure was walking slowly towards the Lake Center Pavilion under the shade of the black shadow of the tall corner tower in the city with the shadows of the trees, and the afterglow shone on his body in the gap between the shadows, outlining the outline of his clothes and face.
It was a man who looked like a scholar. The black hair is tied with a white ribbon, a snow-white satin, a long tassel of white silk is tied around the waist, and a piece of mutton fat white jade abundant in Nanling is tied on it, which is covered with a light yarn of smoke and light, and the chest of the robe is embroidered with a three-legged tripod pattern. His eyebrows are long and his sideburns are long, his nose is thin and his lips are thin, his slender and cold eyes are slightly cold, and although his complexion is white, it is like the beginning of a serious illness, and he is slightly sickly.
I saw him walking lightly, but in every place between the light and shadow transition, one step out, the figure of the man in white will appear a few feet away, only more than ten steps away, more than ten miles of the lake corridor at his feet as if the end of the world, in an instant, came to the pavilion.
On the lake in the pavilion, such as the sound of the sound of the secluded spring flowing out of the mountain stream gradually dissipated in the wind, I saw a man in the pavilion, he stroked the piano and sat quietly, the strings were warm as water under his sleeve and hand, and it was like a mist in Daze, but it was not loud, quiet and far-reaching.
The man who sat cross-legged and sat quietly put his hand in his sleeve and put it on his thigh, he slowly raised his head, and the afterglow on the horizon crossed thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, danced with the wind, broke into the Zhiyu Pavilion, and slightly blew the black hair that covered the man's face.
The eyes are like a phoenix, the eyebrows are like a lying silkworm, the ears are hung with beads, the eyes are painted, the wide plain white robe is elegant, and the embroidery of a three-legged tripod is covered on the chest. His lips are thin and his mouth is straight, the pavilion is light, his forehead is wide and jade, his skin and flesh are full, his instruments are lofty, and in a trance, he is like the ambition of a thousand zhang Lingyun, like shaking the ground Pixiu on the seat.
Wei Fengyu, who was standing outside the pavilion, bowed his waist and said respectfully: "Shizi." β
The man in the pavilion slowly got up and walked to the edge of the pavilion, looking at the sky and clouds, morning and sunset.
The city is big, the mountains and rivers are thousands of miles away, and the city is nine gates.
He is the son of the Ji Shang Huding family - the Gu family - Gu Heshan.
Half a ring, the person who turned his back to face the scholar said lightly: "Second brother, there is no need to be so polite. β
"Xie Shizi"
Wei Fengyu stood quietly outside the pavilion, looking distant, and replied lightly.
Gu Heshan, who looked at the sunset on the horizon, chuckled in a low voice, shook his head helplessly, no longer greedy for the color of mountains and rivers, brushed his sleeves back to the seat, he brushed the guqin on the desk with one hand, and in the blink of an eye, the top of the case was replaced with a set of high-quality green glazed tea sets. I saw Gu Heshan bend his fingers, the golden magnolia petals planted on the shore of the lake and the clear water in the lake converge from all directions towards the pavilion, just like a golden snake formed by the falling flowers of flowing water, when crossing the sky, the fragrance of flowers strikes people, the fragrance is far away and clear, the fragrance in the pavilion on the lake in the courtyard is overflowing, the boiling water is meaningful, and it has reached the tea hall engraved by the phoenix feather.
The tea soup enters the lamp, the curling green mist rises up, the late autumn dusk is thick, and the cool breeze rises on the lake.
Gu Heshan smiled at the corner of his mouth, raised his eyes slightly to look at the people outside the pavilion, and said with a light smile: "If I don't call you in, you plan to stand outside all the time." β
Wei Fengyu raised his hand in front of his abdomen, lowered his chin, and said in a deep voice: "Without the order of the prince, Feng Yu does not dare to guess the degree." β
Gu Heshan sighed lightly, full of smiles, he raised the teacup steadily, the air shook slightly, but the tea did not spill a drop.
"The ancient sages are all lonely, only the drinker leaves his name......"
He said leisurely: "You can't be so pedantic...... Although I am tea, not wine, but at least I am drunk with tea, but I don't hurt my body from drunkenness. β
The evening breeze lifted Wei Fengyu's black hair, and he listened to these point-in-the-minute words and was silent.
"Come in and sit down, the boss is not young, isn't he old enough to stand for punishment?"
Gu Heshan's left elbow rested on top of several cases, his right leg was slightly bent up, and his right hand was holding a cup on his lap, his expression was scattered, his ink hair was flying, and the orange glow fell on his face, which really meant a little drunk.
"Yes. β
Wei Fengyu walked into the pavilion, sat down cross-legged, put his hands on his knees, his eyes lowered, his expression was silent, and his breath was faint.
Until a cup of clear and thorough tea was pushed in front of him, he saw a slightly worse complexion face.
He looked up blankly.
Gu Heshan didn't look at him, I don't know when the teacup in his hand has become a vessel for wine, and the wine utensils in his hand, when they fall together, they will flow into his mouth with a mellow but pungent smell of wine, and the clouds on the horizon have also become red, and his face is more like a drunkard in a wine shop.
Wei Fengyu couldn't help frowning, and his voice couldn't help but be a little colder: "Shizi, now there are many big and small affairs, and the situation in Ji Shang is hidden in turmoil. β
Gu Heshan was a little drunk and said intermittently: "Roundabout...... Pedantic! If even this... This little osmanthus stuffed will get drunk.....thatγWouldn't that make people laugh and be generous!"
Wei Fengyu's eyebrows condensed into Sichuan characters, and he said in his heart, How can you, a person who pours a cup, be able to say such outrageous words with skin and face, isn't it that after a long time in this life and a prominent status, he feels that his alcohol consumption will also increase?
"Come on! I guess you drank a lot of tea this time, I'm afraid you haven't drunk a few taels of wine, and the two brothers will rest when they get drunk today!"
Gu Heshan shook his head and shouted, but his finger pointed to a wooden pillar in the pavilion, if there was a subordinate here who was accustomed to seeing Lord Shizi gentlely and politely at this time, I am afraid that he would not believe that this drunken prodigal son was the son of the Gu family whom they respected to the extreme.
"Shizi, you're drunk!"
Wei Fengyu's tone couldn't help but increase a little, he looked at Gu Heshan who was crazy and shouted.
Gu Heshan slowly turned his head, his half-closed eyes showed a hint of dazedness, he staggered the wine cup in his hand to Wei Fengyu, and said with a wine burp.
"You, you... The rest is yours!"
After saying that, he was about to lie down on the desk, and the wine cup in his hand fell off, Wei Fengyu's eyes were quick, he caught the wine cup with one hand, and held it on Gu Heshan's arm with the other, so that he would not collide with this hardwood with his face.
"W-What... Thank you......"
Gu Heshan muttered in a low voice like a dream, he suddenly fell to the side with an unstable center of gravity, but fortunately, he supported himself on the wooden pillar with one hand in time, and relied on Wei Fengyu on the side to exert force, so that he could barely stand.
"Is the amount of alcohol so bad?"
Wei Fengyu narrowed his gaze and fell on Gu Heshan's face, he tried his best to see something, but there was nothing else except the drunkenness on his face.
"Second and second brother! Send your big brother and I'll go back to my room!"
Gu Heshan shouted, but without waiting for Wei Fengyu to react, it was on his back in the blink of an eye.
Wei Fengyu's body was stable, his figure froze in an instant, his lowered eyes looked shocked but complicated, he was silent for a few breaths, and suddenly felt that there was a faint but sharp aura everywhere he looked at the sky and the earth, although these breaths were hidden deeply, but he was familiar with the Gu family's secret blade that had been with life and death all year round.
This is murderous.
Just now, Gu Heshan secretly pinched his neck twice, which means - go quickly.
Changing tea to wine means that people take tea to cool and warm wine to kill people.
"Yes, son. β
Wei Fengyu replied in a deep voice, holding the wine cup in one hand, hooking Gu Heshan's legs with both arms, and slowly walked out of the Zhiyu Pavilion, stepped on the corridor, and walked towards the lakeshore.
It's not that he can't go fast, it's that he doesn't dare to go too fast.
The sun is thin, dark purple and dark red stain half of the sky, and the huge shadow of the corner tower is shrouded in the courtyard, like a black-edged sword with a bloody handle, drawing the sky full of blood light and death intent.
Wei Fengyu, who was carrying Gu Heshan on his back, gradually moved away on the promenade, night fell, the moontop treetops, the murderous aura in a radius of several miles faded in an instant, in the air above the lake, the magnolia petals were swirled by the evening breeze, only to see that suddenly the white mangs flashed, and under the moonlight, the magnolia petals turned into golden powder, and dispersed with the wind.
"It's here, let me down. β
On the plank road on the lakeshore, Gu Heshan's feet stood firmly on the ground, his expression was slightly dignified, his eyes were calm, his snort was long, the wine between his eyebrows instantly melted, and a gentle but very distant breath came to him, as if the drunken person who had just been in the pavilion had never appeared.
Gu Heshan straightened his robe, raised one hand behind his back, brushed the long sleeves of his shirt, and walked forward, about to leave.
"Why help me?"
Wei Fengyu frowned, staring at his tall back, the moonlight falling on his white robe through the gap in the forest leaves, as if flashing with the color of glass.
Gu Heshan didn't mean to stop, but a slightly emotional voice came from the front, as if it was in his ears, but it had a terrifying meaning.
"A good knife, you can't easily break ......"
He paused: "...... But, I don't want a second time. β
"Bang!"
The wine cup in his hand shattered, but the broken sharp porcelain left a fine wound in his palm, and the hot blood continued to drip from his hand on the grass beside him, but he seemed to be unaware.
Wei Fengyu watched the figure disappear into the dim light, his lips pursed, his pupils shrunk, and under the sporadic moonlight, his face, which was still hidden in the shadows, suddenly became gloomy.
"Yes, son. β
