The sky is clear and the moon is white, the night breeze is slow, blowing the sparkling surface of the river, and the boat is speeding all the way north. Wang Meng is a northerner who doesn't know water, and he has brute strength, but he can't help at all. The boat traveled for about an hour and arrived at Linping County, forty miles north of Hangzhou. He was so tired that he was panting and sweating profusely, and suddenly he saw a big boat breaking through the water behind him, and he was following very quickly. Sick and secretly anxious, I thought that there must be a flaw along the way, and the team had already chased after him. Seeing that the speed of his small boat was no match for the big boat behind him, he had to row hard to dock, and the two jumped ashore, found a pine forest, and hurriedly escaped in the forest.

As soon as the two of them became invisible, the giant boat had already swept in. But seeing the lights on the bow of the ship, it was very lively, there was a big table on the deck, the table was full of cups and plates, a few young people in brocade clothes in their twenties were indulging in wine and having fun, and there were more than a dozen maids beside them, serving wine and cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks.

The big ship moved fast, and in the blink of an eye, it had gone north, leaving only a boatload of moonlight shattered by the current, still rippling in the middle of the river. In the distance, there was a faint sigh of a young man: "You must be worried about the short spring, don't complain that the golden cup is full, and the king is hehe, life can be geometric......"

"It turned out that it was just a few gentlemen who had nothing to do, boating on the moon for fun, pretending to be elegant, and had nothing to do with us. At this time, it was midnight, and both of them were hungry and tired. Wang Meng said: "Brother without disease, I think those gangsters will not know that I have left the city. It's getting dark tonight, why don't we find a place to rest for the night, and buy two fast horses tomorrow morning to go north by land, do you think that's good?"

Wuxian naturally nodded yes, after all, he was young and frail, and after rowing for an hour, his arms were already swollen and tired, and at this moment, if you let him get on the boat again, I am afraid that he will not be able to row.

At that moment, the two of them looked around in the wilderness, and there was no light in the vast moonlight. It turns out that Linping is a small remote county, and there is still some distance from the county seat. There are few people in the countryside, and they have already fallen asleep at this time. Wang Meng didn't want to disturb the villagers, but he was also afraid that if something happened in his life, it would cause trouble. He looked from afar, and saw a mountain peak not far away, and there was a platform made of huge stones at the top of the peak, and under the moonlight, it seemed that there were immortals. Wang Meng suddenly became angry in his heart, he pulled Xu Wuxi's hand, performed light skills, and ran towards the stone platform on the top of the mountain.

Originally, the mountain was called "Yellow Crane Mountain", located in the southern suburbs of Linping twenty miles. At the top of the mountain, there is a platform formed by natural boulders, and the locals call it "Sendai". Legend has it that at some point, a white-clothed immortal came on a yellow crane and stayed here. After the immortals left, this mountain was named Yellow Crane. It is said that on the night of the full moon, some people saw immortals dancing on the stone platform or meditating on the Tao, anyway, these are all rumors, half-truths, hearsay, some people are gullible and some people scoff at them.

The Yellow Crane Mountain is not high, the mountain is flat, Wang Meng and the two of them have not been running for a long time, and they have arrived at the foot of Lingxian Terrace. Wang Meng had the intention to show off, and he shouted "get up" with his disease-free hand, and the two of them rose into the air and climbed a thick vine growing next to the boulder. Wang Meng grabbed the thick vine with his left hand, held the disease with his right hand, kicked with his left foot and kicked with his right foot, and the two of them flew up again, and so on three times, and finally slowly landed on the platform.

I didn't feel the sound of the wind in my ears, whirring by, and when I jumped to the top of the mountain, I saw the platform, and I didn't feel that my eyes were bright. I saw that on the platform on the top of the mountain, the trees did not grow, the weeds did not grow, and there was nothing, and at this time the moonlight was like mercury leaking down, and the ground was white and white. The platform is made of many boulders, and it is very wide, with a radius of dozens of zhang. The stone platform is also very smooth, people walk on it as if walking on the ground, from a distance, this huge natural stone platform actually looks like a stone bed made in heaven. Standing on the stone bed, facing the pine wind, the water in the distance is murmuring, and the moon is shining in the sky...... Piao Piao Ran seems to have a sense of independence and feathering immortals.

Wuzhi and Wang Meng casually picked up an open place and sat down. Wang Meng took two large cakes from the leather bag around his waist and divided them into two meals. Wang Meng asked while eating:

"Brother Wuxi, you are also a member of the Water Dividing Hall, I killed your Hall Master today, offended your Five Hall Masters, and became an enemy of your entire Water Sharing Hall. Why did you save me instead of killing me?"

Xu Wuxi: "Don't hide it from Brother Wang, my parents died when I was a child, and I relied on the relief of the villagers, and later I lived in the city of Hangzhou, begging everywhere, and sometimes doing some chores to barely survive." The Fenshuitang is the largest gang in Hangzhou, and they live on water transportation and earn a living on this canal. Over the years, the salt business has become bigger and bigger, and they will often recruit workers to move and unload goods on the docks. When they asked for someone, I went. I was only doing chores there for a momentary time, just to survive. ”

Xu Wuxian continued: "Later, I met our second hall master, he is a good person, and he is different from the other four hall masters. He promoted me and made me his retinue. He often told me that it was wrong to traffic illicit salt, that this was a blatant opposition to the imperial court, and that he would suffer from it in the long run, but there was no way, Mrs. Fang didn't listen. Old Lady Fang's order, he can't disobey as a son. ”

Wang Meng said angrily: "Okay, brother, I promise you, if the imperial court sends a large army to exterminate the Fenshui Hall in the future, I will report to the governor of my family to save the life of your second hall master." ”

Xu Wuxi hurriedly hugged his fists and thanked: "Thank you, Brother Wang! Our second hall master, his wife and two sons, we also hope that Brother Wang will be safe!"

Wang Meng shook Xu Wuxi's fists: "Okay!

Xu Wuxian sighed again: "Hey! Thinking about what I have done in the past few years, it is tantamount to helping the evil. In addition to disobeying the law and selling illicit salt, the water hall bullied men and women, encroached on people's land, forced good people to become prostitutes, and took advantage of the ...... What bad thing hasn't been done?"

Xu Wuxi: "The evil deeds of the Fenshui Hall have long made me despised. However, I am under the hands of the master of the five halls, and it will be difficult to get out for a while. I am fortunate to meet Brother Wang today, I have been wishing for many years, I should really thank Brother Wang!"

Wang Meng smiled and said, "Okay, good, brother, you will follow me into Beijing." At that time, I will ask you for an errand with Shen Dudu, you are smart and bold, we brothers together, you can do whatever you want! No one dares to bully you as your brother's guarantor!"

Wang Meng: "It's really worth my trip to Jiangnan this time! I can actually meet your good brother! It's a pity that there is no wine around at this time, otherwise I really want to have a big drunk with your brother, hahaha!"

Xu Wuxi saw Wang Meng smiling so heartily, and he couldn't help but be happy. The two sat side by side under the bright moon and on the rocks, and they all smiled when they thought of the happy things in the future.

......

Wang Meng laughed, fell to the ground and fell asleep, and soon heard the sound of snoring like thunder. Xu Wuxian tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. Thinking of the past, he will never return with the water of this canal, and from then on he will step into the capital that he does not know at all, and whether the future will be happy or sad, whether it will be a blessing or a curse? Everything is unknown.

He sat up and looked up at the full moon, which was as big as a disc and shining with silver light. There seems to be a fairy in the middle of the moon, dancing gracefully.

He lost his parents since he was a child, grew up alone, tasted the warmth and coldness of human affection, and when the moon was full, he was eager for family reunion and happiness.

I vaguely remember being with my parents when I was sick, and although my livelihood was hard, I was happy. With a taciturn father and a gentle mother, he tries to recall some of his childhood, but finds that all memories are blurred......

Holding back his tears, he took out a jade flute from his waist, brought it to his lips and played it.

What is blown without illness is an ancient song "Jiang Tianyue". The sound of the flute is sometimes clear and far away, sometimes it is depressed and low, when it is depressed, it is like a dragon wandering low, and the clear and more places seem to be startling, its sound is like silk and wisps, like the wind and snow, such as the morning glow, if the twilight rain......;
