Chapter 10 King Teng's Pavilion Meets the Woman in White.
Fifth Qiongwen was at a loss at this time. The father and son of Huangjiazhuang, whom he has been suspicious of all these years, and the secret road of the Huang family, which he has always been worried about, were revealed by Huang Nianzu today.
"The owner of Huang Zhuang attaches great affection to his wife and loves Ziyu in every way, and the younger generation admires him very much. I believe that Mrs. Huang must be very pleased in the spirit of heaven. Wu You said.
"After today, Yu'er will be able to go out of this Daba Mountain with Wu Shaoxia. Whether the future is good or bad, whether it is life or death, depends on his own creation. I don't bother about it either. ”
"Master Huang Zhuang rest assured, the younger generation will not let Ziyu follow him to make a risk. After three years, I will return you a complete young master of the Huang family. ”
After listening to Wu You's words, Huang Nianzu's face showed some relief. He also knew in his heart that this Wu Shaoxia was a young gentleman, and with his and Ziyu's skills, as long as they didn't meet first-class villains, the two of them would not be able to suffer.
"Yu'er, you are about to leave the village. This will give your grandfather and your mother and the ancestors of the Huang family a pillar of incense. Huang Nianzu said to Huang Ziyu.
Huang Ziyu heard that after walking to Wu Ting's tablet and putting on the incense candles, he knelt down and kowtowed three times and said, "Grandpa, Yu'er will leave the village with Wu Gongzi tomorrow." Three years later, Yu'er must learn from her grandfather to wear a military uniform, protect her family and defend the country, and be a man who stands up to the sky. ”
Huang Nianzu nodded with satisfaction. After listening to Huang Ziyu's impassioned words, Wu You and the fifth father and daughter were all very impressed.
Huang Ziyu kowtowed in front of his mother's tablet and said, "Mother, the child will leave his father tomorrow and leave Huangjiazhuang." From now on, I will not be able to worship my mother every day. I hope that the mother will forgive the child for being unfilial. The mother has a spirit in the sky, bless the safety of the child outside, and bless the health of the father. ”
Huang Nianzu took out a bag from his arms at this time, walked up to Huang Ziyu and said, "Yu'er, this is your mother's belongings." When your mother left, she left it to you, and today I will pass it on to you, and I hope you will keep it well. ”
As he spoke, he took out an object from his bag. Wu You can see it clearly, it is the heirloom jade pendant of the Wu family-unicorn pendant.
Wu You took the jade pendant and gently hung it on his belt.
"This is a token that the heirs of the Wu family must bring. Although you are not surnamed Wu, you have half of the blood of the Wu family on your body. You can also bear it when you wear this jade pendant. Huang Nianzu said.
Huang Ziyu finished serving incense and candles to the ancestors of the Huang family, kowtowed and said: "The ancestors of the Huang family are above, and Huang Ziyu is not a son of Huang Ziyu." Please bless my ancestors and ancestors to bless me with a safe trip, and turn evil into good fortune. Bless the prosperity of the Huang family. ”
Huang Nianzu walked to the desk again, respectfully took off the nine-eyed oolong bow with both hands and said to Huang Ziyu: "Yu'er, take the bow." ”
Huang Ziyu was startled at first, and hurriedly held up the bow with both hands.
"This bow was originally inherited by the Huang family, and you are an only son, so my father will pass it on to you today. From now on, you must bear the reputation of the Huang family, and you must not let the prestige created by the ancestors of the Huang family be discredited. Huang Nianzu was remarkable.
"The child will live up to his father's trust, and he will use his ancestor Han Shengye as a flaunt to revive the reputation of my Huang family. Ziyu said.
After greeting each other for a while, the father and son led everyone back to the living room from the cave.
Huang Nianzu said to the fifth Qiongwen: "The fifth village master, when your fifth family suffered those disasters, I, Huang, am very sorry after hearing it. After Yu'er leaves, I, Huang, will also go out of the mountain to find the whereabouts of my brother Nianzong. If my brother did what happened back then, I will definitely bring it to the fifth village to give you an explanation, and I will also let him return the two treasures of your Wu family. ”
"The younger generation has something to explain to the owner of Huang Zhuang and the master of the fifth village. After speaking, he also asked the owner of Huang Zhuang to forgive the younger generation for being reckless. Wu You stepped forward and said.
"Wu Shaoxia doesn't have to be polite, you can tell me anything. I will never blame the young man below."
"The juniors have entered your Huangjia's secret passage from the top of the back mountain three days ago, and they know that there is a hidden situation in the cave, disturbing the ancestors in the cave, and the juniors have no place to be ashamed. On the school field just now, while everyone was sleeping, the juniors went to the house in the village again, and looked around, but they didn't see the fifth double treasure. Wu You blushed and said to Huang Nianzu and Fifth Qiongwen.
When they heard this, they were shocked.
Huang Nianzu fixed his mind and said: "Wu Shaoxia has superb skills, and he can come and go freely in Huangjiazhuang, which is really admirable." ”
"Besides, Shaoxia is entrusted by the fifth village master, and he should do his best to complete it, which is also reasonable. ”
"If Wu Shaoxia didn't say this today, we wouldn't know. But Wu Shaoxia made this matter clear, which once again shows that Shaoxia is an open-minded person, how can he blame Shaoxia?"
The fifth Qiongwen also said: "Wu Shaoxia has risked his life several times in order to do family affairs, and I don't know how to thank Shaoxia. ”
What I saw and heard today also proves that the owner of Huang Zhuang is a bright and upright person. In the next for the sake of family heirlooms, he came to Guizhuang repeatedly to provoke trouble, and asked the main body of Huangzhuang to forgive me. ”
"The fifth master, please rest assured, the younger generations will always put the search for the fifth double treasure in their hearts, and never slack off. If there is a rumor, you must inform the owner of the village and help the owner of the village to retrieve the treasure. Wu You said.
"The fifth village master is serious, and the fifth family has a lot to do with the Huang family. The fifth master of the village had to do it as a last resort, how dare he blame it. Huang Nianzu also stepped forward and said.
Seeing the misunderstanding between the fifth village and Huangjiazhuang, Wu You was very relieved at this time.
"What are Wu Shaoxia's plans in the future?" asked Fifth Qiongwen.
"There is an urgent matter at home, and I will leave for Chongqing tomorrow. ”
"I'm ashamed to delay the young man for a few days. Shaoxia has urgent matters in his body, and he doesn't stay long. Shaoxia's great grace, I will report it after the next day. Fifth Qiongwen Shili said.
A group of people ate, drank, talked and laughed in Huangjiazhuang until midnight, and did not return to the fifth village. was arranged to live in Huangjiazhuang.
The next day, everyone had breakfast. Wu You took Huang Ziyu to say goodbye to Huang Nianzu. Later, after passing through the fifth village, he said goodbye to the fifth Qiongwen at the gate of the fifth village. In the meantime, there was no fifth Lan figure.
Fifth, Qiongwen prepared two fast horses for the two of them, and a hundred taels of gold. After repeated excuses, Wu You only took thirty taels as a coil, and ran to the south of the mountain with Huang Ziyu.
Wu You and Ziyu hurried up and galloped all the way. At 10 o'clock in the afternoon, we arrived at a densely populated place. There are many villages along the way, and there are also many passers-by along the way.
The two passed by a cross-cutting tea stall and were greeted by the stall owner and Xiao Er. Xiao Er took the reins and tied the horse. He brought fodder and water to the horses, and came to greet them both.
The two sat in the tea shed. I ordered two bamboo-leaf green tea, and two catties of cooked beef and a few steamed buns were gobbled up.
Soon. Three other men in green clothes also hurried to the tea shed, and stopped at the horse. Come in and find a table and sit down.
The leader of the big man shouted: "Xiao Er, come five catties of beef, a good Jiannan roast spring on a jar, prepare some rice, and feed my horse some forage." ”
Xiao Er hurriedly stepped forward to greet and arrange.
"Xiao'er, how long will it take to get to Langzhong from here?" Dahan asked Xiao Er.
Xiao Er hurriedly replied: "There is a fork in the road twenty miles ahead, take the right side of the path, and go more than 100 miles to the southwest to Langzhong City, if you take the left official road to detour, there will be more than 300 miles." ”
Dahan continued to ask, "Is there an inn along the trail?"
Xiao Er replied: "Xiaodao is sparsely populated, and there has never been a place to stay and shoot. There are several towns on the official road, and there are places to rest. ”
"Are a few guest officers also rushing to Langzhong City? In the past few days, many guest officers have come to rest and ask for directions. They all went to Langzhong City. Xiao Er continued.
The big man said "um", and he didn't answer much. Xiao Er hurriedly walked away.
"Big brother, listen to this little two. We took this trail and hurried overnight, and at most we could reach Langzhong City tonight. A big man next to him said to the leader of the big man.
"yes. It's better to hurry up and eat something, and after eating, take advantage of the fact that it is still early. ”
"I heard that this Yuan and Li two fighting law conference also attracted people from all over the world, such as the Jin people and the Tubo people, and they also secretly sent people to investigate. Langzhong City is going to be lively these days. The big man on the side continued to whisper.
"They fight their Fa and watch their liveliness. We look for what we want. What do you care about so much?" said another big man next to him.
"Don't say it, eat quickly, it's important to hurry. The leader of the big man drank and stopped the two people around him.
San'er finished eating like a jujube and paid the silver taels to Xiao Er. Mounted his horse and galloped south.
The conversation between the three of them, Wu You and Ziyu also heard it clearly.
Wu You called the shopkeeper and asked, "Little brother, you said that there are a lot of people who have been to Langzhong City in the past few days. Do you know why these people went to Langzhong City?"
"The little one didn't know what was going on, just listening to the guest officer who came to rest his feet and said, what kind of meeting will Yuan Li take, and all the heroes in Shuzhong will rush over. Xiao Er hurriedly replied.
"Ziyu, hurry up and pack your luggage after eating. We also went to Langzhong City. ”
"Childe is not returning to Chongqing Mansion?"
"I won't go back for the time being, and the two of us will also go to join in the fun. I heard that Langzhong silk is famous all over the world, so I went to buy some and bring them back to my hometown in Chongqing. ”
The two of them were also busy with silver taels, and got on their horses and galloped towards Langzhong City.
The two of them followed the path pointed out by Xiao Er. Although it is a trail, there are still some fast horses and pedestrians who are joining hands with Wu You.
Wu You thought to himself. "These people must also be going to Langzhong City to join in the fun, it seems that something big is really happening in Langzhong. ”
When he was about Mozi, Wu You and Ziyu entered Langzhong City. Looking for inns everywhere is not available, and every house is full. I finally found an inn on the outskirts of the city, and there was only one room left.
Wu You and the others didn't care. Let the innkeeper take care of the horses, order some food, gobble it up, and settle down.
It wasn't until noon the next day that the two of them got up. After another meal at the inn, he left the inn and walked around the streets.
Wu You and Ziyu were deeply attracted by the bustling and lively Langzhong City.
Although there were many wars in Song and Jin, there was not the slightest tension in this Langzhong City.
The streets in the city extend in all directions, the shops and buildings on both sides of the street are scattered, the merchants gather, and the pedestrians come and go. There are silk houses and wine shops everywhere, and the fragrance of time-honored Boryeong vinegar is wafting everywhere on the street.
The streets are full of merchants from all over the world dressed in various colors. There are Luo Qun in the Western Regions, lamas in Tibet, jugglers in Western Xia, and ...... pharmacists in Dali. There is a wide variety of goods and objects, and it is overwhelming.
The two of them walked to West Street unconsciously. Suddenly, an ancestral hall came into view, and people kept coming and going. Then I stepped forward to find out.
Only then did I know that this shrine is also called "Zhang Fei Temple", and it is dedicated to Zhang Yide, the general of the Three Kingdoms. It is also called "Han Huan Hou Temple." ”
Only then did Wu You and the others understand why the plaque at the door said "Han Huan Hou Temple".
"Ziyu, this Zhang Yide was an official in the same dynasty as your ancestor Huang Hansheng, and he was named the General of the Five Tigers. It can be regarded as having some relationship with your Huang family. Since you and I are here today, let's go in and pay homage to Master Hou. Wu You said.
Ziyu also readily agreed. The two bought some incense and candles and went to Zhang Fei Temple to worship.
After coming out of the ancestral hall, Wu You said to Ziyu again: "In the early years, the teacher said that the Tengwang Pavilion in Langzhong was famous all over the world. You and I are fortunate to come to Langzhong today, and we must go to that famous building to have a look, so as not to regret it in the future. ”
"That's very good, and I heard my father talk about this building. I'm going to take a look. Ziyu also agreed.
After the two of them inquired about passers-by, they went towards the Tengwang Pavilion of Yutai Mountain in the north of the city.
About two hours, the two of them climbed halfway up Yutai Mountain and came to the gate of King Teng's Pavilion.
I saw that this building was built according to Yutai Mountain, and the bottom of the mountain is the bank of the Jialing River. Looking up, this building is majestic and magnificent. Pavilions, stone steps, attics, stone bridges...... Each has its own characteristics, and it is scattered.
Wu You saw that there was an endless stream of people playing around, most of them were literati and ink artists.
Wu You led Ziyu to the top of the attic and looked around. The entire Langzhong City and the winding Jialing River are in full view. Unconsciously, there was a feeling of swallowing mountains and rivers, and my heart was relaxed.
"The king's Taixie pillow Ba Mountain, the Dan ladder can still be climbed. In spring, the warbler cries in the bamboo, and the fairy dog barks in the white clouds. ”
Suddenly, I heard a woman's voice next to me whispering.
I saw this woman wearing a white hat with a white veil on it. Although I can't see the face clearly. But through the white veil, you can vaguely see that this woman's face is dignified and very delicate. Looking at this woman's whole body, she also has a white long skirt, and she also holds a jade flute in her hand, which is graceful and elegant, which is very eye-catching.
The woman was followed by two maidservants, both dressed like women. Slim and elegant. Where the three of them stood were like fairies descending from earth, causing many bystanders to look back.
"Qingjiang Jinshi is sad and beautiful, and the tender stamens are full of flowers. People come to Yu Jinge to herd, and they don't know how to return to this place. Wu You unconsciously followed the woman and groaned.
After listening to Wu You's chanting, the woman nodded lightly at Wu You.
"It's also the first time for the girl to climb this Tengwang Pavilion?" Wu You stepped forward and asked.
"The son is polite, the little woman is indeed the first time to go to this Tengwang Pavilion. The woman in white replied lightly.
"Girl, have you ever been to Jiangnan Tengwang Pavilion, see what is the difference between this Langzhong Tengwang Pavilion and Jiangnan Tengwang Pavilion?" Wu You deliberately accosted.
"The little girl has never been to Jiangnan, let alone seen Jiangnan Tengwang Pavilion. The little woman only knew that the two Tengwang pavilions were built by Li Yuanying, the king of Teng in the Tang Dynasty. Listening to the meaning of Gongzi's words, Gongzi has been to Jiangnan and has been to Jiangnan Tengwang Pavilion?" asked the woman in white.
"I've never been there. It's just that when I came here, I remembered Jiangnan Tengwang Pavilion, so I asked the girl for advice or two. Wu You replied slyly.
The poet Du Fu once left that quatrain in "Tengwang Pavilion" and "Jade View Terrace", and the girl's words just now were deeply in my ears. It seems that the girl is also very fond of the verses of the poet. Wu You continued to set closely.
"Childe praises falsely, and the little woman also knows a few famous sentences of the poet, and Shicai also uses the scene to lyric, which makes Childe laugh. The woman in white replied.
"Under Wu You. Seeing that the girl also holds a jade flute, she has the same preference as the next. It is a great honor to meet in this famous building today. Haven't you asked the girl's name yet?"
"The little girl's surname is Li, and if he has a chance to meet in the future, he will inform Wu Gongzi of the little girl's name. As she spoke, the woman in white led her entourage to leave.
"The girl stays, this person is in the vast sea, I don't know when and where I can meet the girl again?" Wu You hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
"In less than three days, the little girl will definitely be able to meet Wu Gongzi again. Please make it convenient for your friends to do so, and the little girl will go down the mountain first, and see you in a few days. After speaking, the woman in white led her entourage and went to the foot of Yutai Mountain. Wu You didn't ask any more.
Wu You was confused at this time. I thought to myself, "Who is this woman? Why did she say that we could meet her again in three days? Could she really be a fairy?"
