The Milky Way is vast and deep, with the occasional few meteors, streaking across the inky sky, extremely gorgeous. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Lu Bei lay on the soft grass and looked at the starry sky like a furnace inverted.

Not far away, the lotus leaf frog chirped three or two times.

With a heaving chest, the breath began to calm down. The cold eyes gradually became melancholy, and his heart was turbulent.

Heaven and earth are furnaces, and creation is work.

Yin and yang are charcoal, and all things are copper.

All living beings are under the lid of this furnace, struggling, and cannot be detached.

No matter how amazing and brilliant he was in his life, he was just like a meteor, fleeting.

Thinking of this, Lu Bei forcibly expelled the sleepiness from the soul.

Knowing that he was wet at this time, it was really not suitable to sleep here.

Lu Bei coughed a few times, slowly stood up, and shook the water marks on his body. Picking up the [Jinse] Yaoqin, lifting the Chixiao Sword, one foot deeper, one foot shallow, and walked towards a place of sparks in front of him.

The starry night is lonely, and the light is faint.

Unitary time.

Lu Bei faltered, and finally came to a prosperous county seat, a string of lanterns hung high on both sides of the city gate hole, and a young man was in the west city gate hole, leaning against the blue brick wall, salivating at the corners of his mouth, dozing off.

The gong and the bangzi were hanging in his arms.

The cold wind hit, and the young husband shivered.

Clang......

The gong landed, and in the quiet night sky, it spread particularly far-reaching.

The young husband jumped up in surprise and rubbed his sleepy eyes.

seemed to be aware of it, and wanted to look not far away, only to see a young man in green clothes looking at him with a smile under the dim light.

The anger of the young husband who was suddenly disturbed by someone had a good dream did not have time to rise.

A clear, slightly tired voice sounded.

"This little brother, it's windy at night, don't catch a cold. ”

On the pale face of the young man, he showed the color of the wind and dust of the reverse journey, and his eyes shone like stars.

The young man's expression was clear, and he carefully glanced at the young man in front of him, and saw that he was wet, and his sleeves were still dripping with water, as if he had just been fished out of the water.

I was going to laugh at him for not caring about himself and meddling in other people's affairs.

However, his eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of the wide seed sword in the young man's palm, and the words were not spoken after all.

Seeing that this husband looked dumbfounded, Lu Bei laughed softly: "Little brother, where is this boundary." ”

On the young husband's thin face, the expression returned.

Said cautiously: "Childe, this is Jiangxia County, and this place is Wuling County." Look at your son, do you want to find an inn to rest? ”

Lu Bei sighed in his heart.

In Wuling County, he was unexpectedly left here by the four unruly princesses of the Dongting Dragon Palace family.

Originally, it was only necessary to go straight to Xiangshui from Yunmeng Daze and take the waterway by boat to reach Lingling County within ten months, but now this delay can be described as a branch.

I can only go by land first, go to Hengyang to find a ferry, and then enter Xiangshui.

Hearing the young husband's question, Lu Bei's heart moved, but he didn't care.

Just said: "That's exactly what I mean." ”

The young husband was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Son, the county seat is under curfew, and I am very familiar with it, so you can go with me." ”

Hearing this, Lu Bei nodded slightly. Walk up to keep up with the gleeful husband.

It didn't take long.

The two came to an inn. The inn is three floors and is exquisitely decorated. Lu Bei, under the guidance of the husband, checked in.

Lu Bei had a meal, took a bath, and stayed in this inn for the time being.

Nothing was said all night.

Following.

Lu Bei woke up and washed up. Under the greeting of the inn guys, go downstairs to eat.

In the early morning, Wuling County slowly became noisy, and the people began to be busy for a day.

Just when Lu Bei was eating xiaolongbao and drinking gruel. Suddenly, a call came from not far away.

"Brother Lu?"

Lu Bei followed the sound and looked around.

I saw a young scribe with a calm bearing and elegant demeanor, looking at him with a smile not far from the door.

It turned out to be this person...... Tao Jing.

Lu Bei's face flashed with surprise.

At this time, Tao Jing walked slowly and said with a clear smile: "Brother Lu, I just looked at the back of this table and looked familiar, and I tried to call it, I don't want it to be you." It's really a place in life where we don't meet. ”

Lu Bei had a good conversation with Tao Jing on the shore of Dongting Lake before, and he admired his free and easy temperament.

Immediately got up and laughed loudly: "Brother Tao, don't come to harm." ”

The two talked.

Lu Bei heard that Tao Jing had just returned to his hometown by boat, and he hadn't had breakfast yet. Immediately, he ordered the man to order a drawer of steamed buns and a bowl of rice porridge.

Tao Jing is not pretentious, and the two talk while eating.

At this time, Tao Jing said in a low voice: "Brother Lu, I haven't told you yet, that mad Xu Yang is jealous of you for robbing him of the place in the Dragon Palace Wenhua Banquet, and sent people around to look for you, which seems to have the intention of harming you." And the King of Qi seems to be dissatisfied with you, saying that you are rude and rude in Yueyang Tower, if it weren't for the fear of the Dragon Palace......"

Speaking of this, Tao Jing paused for a moment, and said with a happy expression: "Fortunately, Brother Lu Ji has his own natural appearance." ”

Lu Bei's eyes flickered, and he realized in his heart: "It's really a blessing and a blessing, and a blessing and a curse." ”

I was teased by the four princesses of the Dragon Palace, although I was embarrassed, but I was also spared some senseless fighting.

Although he is not afraid of Xu Yang's villain behavior, along the way, he is bloodstained step by step, killing and killing, and he is somewhat tired.

Lu Bei turned to smile and said, "Thank you, Brother Tao, for worrying about something." However, even if there is a small obstacle in the night, Lu is not afraid. ”

Tao Jing knew that Lu Bei's words were true, after all, his swordsmanship was exquisite, and he had seen it with his own eyes in Yueyang Tower that day.

The two of them finished talking.

Lu Bei knew that Tao Jing was originally a native of Jiangxia County, and during the conversation between the two, Tao Jing took advantage of the situation to invite Lu Bei to his home as a guest.

Lu Bei readily agreed.

Tao Jing's family lives in the south of Wuling City, with a two-fold green tile courtyard, and seven plum trees with cold branches are planted outside the courtyard wall of the vine tree.

Seeing this, Lu Bei smiled and said clearly: "I don't want to, Brother Tao is still a wonderful person." These seven plum trees, is there anything special? ”

Tao Jing smiled and said: "I haven't told Brother Lu yet, Tao likes to paint plum gu wine in his life, and he is known as Mr. Qimei." ”

Lu Bei said solemnly: "Brother Tao is really a hermit. ”

Tao Jing smiled faintly and didn't care.

Seeing this, Lu Bei recognized his temperament a little more, and nodded secretly in his heart.

Walking into Tao Jing's house, in the main hall, on the two wooden chairs, the two guests sat down.

At this time, someone in the inner wing heard the movement outside, and an old woman in a cloth skirt and a hairpin, walking out tremblingly with a pine cane.

The old woman was in her sixties, and her silver hair was neatly combed, tied into a bun, and tied with a pine hairpin.

As soon as he saw Tao Jing, the old man's face was full of joy, and he said excitedly: "Jing'er, you're back." ”

Tao Jing hurriedly went to support the old woman and introduced him to Lu Bei.

Lu Bei said solemnly: "Boy Lu Bei, I have seen the old lady. ”

The old woman had a kind face and said with a smile: "You are Jing'er's friend." Sit down, and the old man will make you tea. ”

As she spoke, the old woman was going to carry the teapot on the table and make tea for the two of them.

Tao Jing took the first step to lift the teapot, and hurriedly persuaded him: "Mother, you are not in good health, I should come to these things." ”

The old woman no longer insisted, and said with a smile: "You...... Jing'er, according to her mother, you should also become a family. It's not a problem to take care of the inside and out by yourself all day long. ”

When Tao Jing heard this, his face was a little embarrassed, and he said vaguely: "This is not in a hurry in advance, let's talk about it later." ”

"There's no hurry...... Think of my Tao family, since the ancestor Tao Huan Gong, the official to a dynasty servant, Taiwei, three generations of shade. Now you don't go out, you want to be a hermit in the mountains, and you won't force you to be your mother. But if my mother wants to leave an incense for my Tao family, it can't be done. ”

Tao's mother seemed to be urging marriage and becoming addicted, and at this time, ignoring the presence of Lu Bei, she paused the pine cane with her right hand, and immediately reprimanded Tao Jing with a calm face.

Tao Jing's expression was submissive, and his eyes were busy signaling to Lu Bei, who was looking funny at this time.
