Chapter Ninety-Seven: September
His oath-like rhetoric made Liu Laodao speechless.
When the old man saw him standing in the moonlight, a strange emotion suddenly appeared in his heart that could not be contained—Brother Xin'er's current situation was not right at all.
He didn't doubt that this mysterious "master" named Li Yunxin would be able to do what he said - he had really surprised himself enough. I just think that there are a lot of ...... "tragic resoluteness" in his words. So much so that Lao Dao felt a little worried.
He always felt that a character like Brother Xin would not stay by his side all the time.
Someday, the storm will meet...... It's going to turn into a dragon and leave......
He sighed inwardly.
......
......
And so it went through the night. When the east side of the fish was exposed to the white of the fish belly the next day, Liu Laodao looked into Li Yunxin's room.
Brother Xin seems to have not slept all night, and he is drawing.
He knew that Li Yunxin wanted to send those pictures of the temple, not out of good intentions - he must have his own plans. But he thought about it all night and felt that what Li Yunxin said was very true. Even if he had some plans of his own, it would be a good thing for those temples.
The portraits of the prince and the dragon maiden in the vestibule are still there, and there are still people who come to worship these days. It is said that it does have the effect of clearing the mind and calming the qi, and even only people pay a hundred taels of silver to buy.
Brother Xin'er is a realm......
Liu Laodao always couldn't help but marvel like this-I've heard of the Taoist priest and the swordsman of the realm, but who has heard of the painter of the realm?
After a while, Li Yunxin pushed the door and walked out, holding a roll of paper under his arm. Lao Dao also hurriedly went out: "Brother Xin, what are you doing today?"
He always felt like he was part of a big event. It made him feel nervous, worried, but always excited for years.
Li Yunxin handed him a roll of paper he was holding: "It's all here, thirty-seven copies." You go and divide it among them, go back and frame it and make an offering—you know how to fool people. Let's just say I'll check it out in a few days...... Never mind. It's not ****, I know what to do when I see this painting. So, when you're done, tell them to hurry back -- I'll go out for a walk. ”
When Liu Laodao heard him say this, he suddenly felt that his hands suddenly became heavy-
These are the thirty-seven idols?!
Nearly four thousand taels of silver!
He suddenly felt a little unsteady on his feet.
But he still stopped: "Brother Xin...... What are your plans, do you want to talk to me? I'm afraid that you're going to spoil your big thing!"
Li Yunxin smiled, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he only read two lines of poetry: "I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain-have you heard this poem?"
Lao Dao listened to it and only felt good. But the meaning of it was not understood for a while. I had to shake my head: "Brother Xin, you ...... poem"
"It's not my poems, it's my poems. He patted Liu Laodao's arm vigorously and pointed to the scrolls, "Get this done." Please. ”
Although he said it casually, Liu Laodao could hear the solemnity contained in these words. He also nodded seriously: "Don't worry." ”
The two of them went out together.
Lao Dao went to the inn where the Taoist priests lived temporarily, but Li Yunxin walked in the direction of leaving the city. He placed a simple talisman on himself, so that he walked like a gust of wind, fast, but not fast enough to attract attention.
It took him half an hour to get out of Weicheng, and it was estimated that it was eight or nine o'clock in the morning. As soon as you leave the city, the style is very different. To the east, there is a mountain range that stretches like a dragon, and to the west, there is a horse and a flat river. A smooth official road goes straight to the north, and if you follow this official road all the way and keep walking, you will finally arrive at the capital of Gyeongguk, Gyeonghwa.
But after Li Yunxin walked with some ox carts, horse-drawn carts, and vendors carrying vegetable burdens for a while, he turned onto another one.
Although there is no official road on this road, there are lush rows of trees growing on both sides. Behind the trees are the irrigation ditches, and then the vast fields of fertile fields. There were few pedestrians on the road, except for a peasant woman who carried a basket of goose eggs in the crook of her arm, and after being vigilant for a while, she turned onto another path.
So he was the only one left, and he walked for another half hour.
The trees on both sides are thinning out, and the view is gradually widening. There was a slight smell of water in the air, and there was no longer only birdsong and insects, but more background sounds.
After walking a little further, I finally heard the sound of rushing water.
At the end of the road is a ferry crossing. There were two or three small sampans moored, and when Li Yunxin came over from a distance, a boatman asked loudly if he wanted to cross the river. Li Yunxin looked at it and shook his head. So the men went on to gossip again, ignoring him.
He got off the road and walked along the river. There are dense reeds growing on the riverside, and there is no beach to be seen. I don't know how deep this Weishui is, but it's extremely wide. There should also be a wharf on the other side of the river at the ferry just now, but even with Li Yunxin's eyesight, he can't see it clearly—it is hidden in the mist.
It is said that this is a big river, but even if it is said to be a big lake, some people will believe it.
Li Yunxin was a little distracted by such a wide water surface, and he saw that there were many huge whirlpools on the water surface, as well as the waves brought out by the turbulent water - under such a water surface, I don't know how many monsters are hidden!
He simply walked a few more steps, walked up to a grassy hill by the river, and stood there and looked at it carefully for a while.
As far as he knows, Gyeongkook is a landlocked country. There are many dynasties in this world, and Qingguo is not the largest one, but it is not the smallest one either. Since Qingguo is a landlocked country, this section will not be the estuary of Weishui, but the middle reach. There is still such a weather in the middle reaches of a large river...... This Weishui downstream, I really don't know how majestic and magnificent it is!
The sound of water in his ears was stirring, and the water around him was clouded. Looking at the scene of the water and the sky and the shore in sight, it took a long time before he let out a long breath.
No wonder...... Someone wants to fight for the world.
When I sat in my study, the word "world" was just a broad concept. You can imagine mountains and rivers, but in your imagination you are like a giant, looking down on them – they are tiny in your mind.
But now that I have seen this scene with my own eyes, just seeing such a river has felt magnificent, and how magnificent and extraordinary this whole world should be!
If...... And with this thought-
This Weishui...... If it's mine.
I will soon become the lord of this vast and magnificent Weishui - the Dragon King of Weishui!
Li Yunxin held his breath and stared at the extremely wide water surface for a quarter of an hour before finally spit it out again: "...... It seems that thinking about it makes me feel a lot better. ”
"Okay...... My friend, then it's time for us to meet. ”
So he took a piece of paper out of his sleeve, and with a flick of his fingers, it turned to dust.
The phantom of the ninth prince appeared out of thin air, standing in place and staring at him. Li Yunxin patiently stared at him for a while, and the phantom gradually blurred and disappeared.
And he sat down on the felt meadow, and hummed a song softly to the sound of the wind and the waves.
"Wildflowers on the steppe that witnessed the death of the gods...... The wind in the distance is farther away than the ......"
