Chapter 11 Meet the Hou Ye, drink drunk Jianglou.
At ten o'clock in the afternoon, Wu You and Ziyu went down from Yutai Mountain to the bottom of the mountain. The two planned to go back to Langzhong City to eat something, and then inquire about some news by the way.
As soon as the two of them stepped into the north gate of the city, they suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves behind them. A few people shouted, "Dodge, dodge......." ”
The two hurriedly flashed to the edge of the street and looked behind them. I saw three jujube red horses passing in front of me, and there was no one on the horseback. More than ten zhang later, a handsome young man in purple led two entourages panting, chasing and shouting "dodge".
I saw that everyone on the street also heard the sound and fled in all directions. The three big horses galloped straight towards the downtown area.
"It's not good, Ziyu is on the board, the horse is shocked. Wu You shouted.
As he spoke, both of them jumped up and ran towards the horse. In a moment, he flashed behind the horse. Both of them performed a few somersaults, each jumped onto the back of a horse, clamped his legs on the horse's belly, grabbed the reins of the horse and pulled it into his arms, only to hear two long neighs, and the two horses were firmly pulled to a halt in the middle of the street.
Wu You handed the reins in his hand to Ziyu and prepared to run towards another horse. Suddenly, a soft whip flew out of the crowd and was put directly on the horse's neck. I saw that the horse's two front legs rose in the air, and with a long neigh, it was stopped by the soft whip.
There were bursts of applause on the street, and passers-by cheered loudly for the skills of the three people.
"Good skills. Wu You also shouted. and dismounted, and went to the one who made the whip.
Walking in, a familiar figure in the crowd came into view. This person is the Fifth Lan.
"Fifth Miss, why are you?" Wu You asked in surprise.
"What if it's this girl?"
"Fifth girl, why did you come to Langzhong City?" At this time, Ziyu also followed, got off the horse and asked softly with a red face.
"This Langzhong City is not your family's family, why can't I come if you can come?"
Huang Ziyu didn't dare to ask again at this time.
"If you can come, if you can come, the fifth lady will naturally be able to get there if she thinks of it. Wu You said with a smile.
"White-faced ghost, I'm afraid that you will take possession of my treasure after you find it, so I will follow you all the way. Otherwise, you would think that this girl would like to come here. Fifth Lan said fiercely.
Wu You knew in his heart that what this Fifth Lan said was a lie.
At this time, several people were crowded into the crowd. The leader is the purple-clothed young man just now.
The surrounding pedestrians also respectfully saluted the boy and called the boy "Little Marquis".
The purple-clothed young man returned the salute casually, and saluted Wu You and the three of them, saying, "Three good skills." This son hereby thanked the three suitable talents for their efforts. If it weren't for the timely action of the three of them, I don't know how many people on this street would have suffered this catastrophe. ”
Wu You returned the salute and said: "With a gesture, the son doesn't have to be polite." I wonder why this horse is running away on the street?"
"The three of them don't know that they have always liked to domesticate good horses. When I was wandering around the mule and horse market outside the north gate just now, I fell in love with these three jujube red horses in the Western Regions, which were all rare horses, so I spent a lot of money to buy them from horse dealers in the Western Regions. Just as he was about to move back to the house with his subordinates, a few children were playing with firecrackers nearby, startling the horses, and the horses broke free from the reins and galloped from outside the city to the city. The young man in purple said.
"I see, this horse in the Western Regions is really strong. Fortunately, it didn't hurt the people on the street. After listening, Wu You and the three of them handed the reins of the horse in their hands to the young entourage and said.
"Look at the three faces don't look like locals, I don't know if the three have been to Langzhong before? Just now I was fortunate to get the help of the three, in order to thank the three of them for what they just did, I invited the three of them to sit in Zuijiang Tower, and I would like to make friends with the three of them. Please also invite the three of you to enjoy a thin noodle. ”
"This is the first time I've come to Langzhong City. This girl is my friend. I just met it in the city. It's unclear if she's been here before. Wu You looked at Fifth Lan and said mischievously.
"When I was younger, I passed by Langzhong with my family, and this is the second time I have come here. Fifth Lan glared at Wu You and said to the young man.
"Childe, I have just received the good intentions, and I will have the fate to meet with Childe again in the future. The three of us have just met, and we have important matters to discuss. Wu You continued.
"What can I discuss with you two? The son-in-law of the family kindly invited, and you repeatedly shirked it, so you really didn't blush. Fifth Lan said.
Wu You thought to himself: "What kind of enmity does this aunt have with me, why do you raise the bar with me in everything?" Since this is the case, let's sit down with this son first, and inquire about some news by the way." ”
"Alright then, you're welcome. Just go sit down with Childe. Wu You said.
The purple-clothed young man instructed his entourage to lead the horses back to the house first, and led Wu You and the three of them towards the river.
The riverside street is also a busy city. There are quite a few inns and restaurants. Zuijianglou is one of them, and only Zuijianglou has the most prosperous business. This restaurant has three floors, and you can enjoy the view of the Jialing River by sitting by the window on the second and third floors.
The four of them entered, and the boss of the Zuijiang Building and the little two came forward to greet them. Many guest officials in the restaurant also greeted the young man. also called the young man "Little Hou Ye".
The four of them were taken by Xiao Er to the third floor of the large elegant room to greet and sit down.
The purple-clothed young man opened his mouth and said: "This drunken river building is one of the best restaurants in Langzhong City, his family's dishes are very famous in the local area, and the old wine brewed by his family is a must, which can be compared to the best Jiannan spring burning." This private room is reserved all year round, and I often drink with friends and watch the river view. ”
"This private room is very clean, and no one will come in and disturb you. Today, the four of us drank well, and we didn't get drunk and didn't go home. ”
After a while, the table was full of wine and food.
The young man in purple continued: "These drinks and dishes are his signature dishes, and I must order them every time I come here. After a long time, he no longer informed Xiao Er, so his family followed the arrangement. ”
"It's been a long time, and I haven't consulted the three names. It's really rude to be down. ”
"Under the surname Wu, the name is "excellent". My brother's surname is "Huang" and his name is "Ziyu". This girl has the surname "fifth", and her single name is "Lan". Wu You introduced the boy one by one.
"Wu Gongzi, Huang Gongzi, the fifth girl, is disrespectful. ”
"The right audience called the son "Little Hou Ye", and we did not ask the son for his name, but also asked the son to give advice. Wu You asked.
"Under the surname "Zhang" and the name "Chong", Langzhong is a local name. Zhang Xian is under his grandfather. The boy said.
"What Zhang Gongzi said is Zhang Xian, the general under Grandpa Yue Fei. Wu You asked.
"Exactly, grandfather is not only a fierce general under Wu Muye, but also his son-in-law. My grandmother is Wu Muye's beloved daughter Yue Xiao'e. Zhang Chong said.
"Back then, the Yue family was framed by the traitor Qin Hui, and his grandfather and uncle Yue Yun, as well as his grandfather Zhang Xian, were also beheaded one after another. It was not until Xiaozong succeeded to the throne that he was able to show the snow. Posthumously named his grandfather as "Lie Wenhou", inherited from generation to generation. ”
The people of Langzhong respectfully call their father Zhang Diwan as Zhang Houye, and naturally call him "Little Marquis". ”
"I see, after I didn't know that Gongzi was a famous general, I didn't know that you were Zhang Xiaohou. Please forgive me for the rudeness. Wu Youshili said.
Zhang Chong also returned the salute politely, beckoned the three of them to use wine and food, and talked about the past of their ancestors on the table. In the meantime, the four of them chatted well and not speculated.
After three rounds of drinking, Zhang Chong asked, "Why did Wu Gongzi come to Langzhong City this time?"
"I heard that there was a "Yuan Li" fighting conference in Langzhong City, and I felt curious for a while, so I came here to see the excitement. Wu You replied.
Zhang Chong said: "It turns out that several people are also here to watch the conference. ”
"The little marquis knows about this conference, and I also ask the little marquis to tell me one or two. Wu You hurriedly asked.
"How did I not know? My father is the presiding officer of the assembly. The conference was held in Tiangang Gate, Tiangong Township, the day after tomorrow. ”
"Why is this conference called the Fighting Law Conference? Who is fighting with whom?" Wu You asked curiously.
"Do you know that there were two strange people in the Tang Dynasty, one is called Yuan Tiangang and the other is called Li Chunfeng?" Zhang Chong said.
"I don't know. I heard that the two of them are both strange people in the early Tang Dynasty, who can occupy the heavens, watch the stars, look at the face, and use the number of techniques. He once wrote a strange book together - "Tui Bei Tu", which deduced that major events had occurred in China for 2,000 years. Wu You said.
"Wu Gongzi is right. But Wu Gongzi only knows one thing, not the other. Yuan and Li not only co-authored the world's strange book "Tui Bei Tu", but also traveled around the world together and drew a strange picture together. ”
"What kind of odd picture?"
During their travels, Yuan and Li searched for dragon veins large and small in various parts of China, and drew these dragon veins on a map. And named "Dragon Vein Note". ”
"But it's all a legend. Whether it is "Push Back Picture" or "Dragon Vein Note", the world has never seen it. The reason for this is known only to the descendants of Yuan Li. ”
"Then what's the matter with this Yuan Li Doufa?" Wu You asked.
"Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng were originally from the same school, and they were both officials of the same dynasty, and they were both valued by Tang Taizong and Wu Zetian. The two also cherish each other, are also teachers and friends, and have a deep friendship. But both of them are also dissatisfied with each other, and they are both superior to each other in their own skills. ”
After the two went into hiding, Yuan Tiangang created the Tiangang Gate, and Li Chunfeng also created the Chunfeng Gate. Jointly set the rules, so that the descendants of the two families can fight once every eighteen years, and see that one has a higher skill. ”
"In the past 500 years, the descendants of the Yuan and Li families have also respected their ancestors, and they have fought in Langzhong Tiangong Township every eighteen years. But every time it doesn't matter if you win or lose, the day after tomorrow is the eighteen-year battle of the law. Zhang Chong said.
"Haha, there are such things in this world. This time, I really didn't come in vain, and it was really worth the trip to be able to see with my own eyes the fighting methods of the two strange people. Wu Youle said.
"It's strange to say. I don't know who is rumoring in the rivers and lakes that the "Dragon Vein Note" has appeared. It's in that Tiangong Township. During these days, the imperial court and other countries also sent people to Langzhong City. Many heroes and heroes in the world, capable people and people have also come to join in the fun. Zhang Chong continued.
"No wonder many people rushed to Langzhong along the way, to see if the Fighting Law Conference was fake, and to find that the "Dragon Vein Note" was true. If there is really such a "Dragon Vein Note" in the world, the world will encounter a catastrophe. Wu You sighed.
Wu Gongzi is reasonable. This dragon vein matter is as small as the rise and fall of ordinary people's morals, and as big as the national fortunes of various countries. If "Dragon Vein Note" really appears, it will inevitably set off a bloody storm. Zhang Chong agreed.
"I don't care about it for now. The day after tomorrow, the three of them followed him to the Dharma Fighting Conference. It's rare to drink with a few people today, and it's best for us to drink and enjoy the scenery of the Jialing River at this time. Zhang Chong looked at everyone's heavy faces, and suddenly said loudly.
"Okay, don't talk about anything else, keep drinking. The little marquis is also a man of temperament. None of us are drunk today. Wu You said so that Zhang Chong could drink it.
"Fifth girl, how did you follow you to Langzhong City?" Wu You asked Fifth Lan drunkenly.
"As far as the two of you are dressed, it's pretty conspicuous. One holds a jade flute in his hand, and the other has a broken bow on his back. It's not hard for me to ask about the whereabouts of the two of you if I casually inquire on the road. Fifth Lan replied proudly.
"Ziyu, did you hear that? Fifth Lan said that you are carrying a broken bow. Hahaha. Wu You laughed.
"As long as Miss Fifth is happy, she can say whatever she likes. Huang Ziyu also came up at this time, and said to Fifth Lan.
When several teenagers unknowingly drank between jokes and scolding, all four of them climbed to the table and fell asleep.
Outside the window, several fishing boats were still rippling on the river. I saw the faint lights of the fishing boat reflected in the river, and it became one with the starry sky in the night sky.
