Volume 21 "A Few Smoke and Dust on the Immortal Road in the World" Chapter 27 Standing in turmoil, who is crying for milk swallows

Xue Yi is married, since a lover will eventually become a family, all kinds of tricks do not need to be detailed. In addition to them, the happiest have to count the parents who are awake. The old Zhang Tou couple finally felt that they had survived at this time, and every time they saw the beautiful woman in front of the hall, they smiled from ear to ear. Xue Yi's surname is the most gentle and virtuous, after returning, the matter is sobering up to say that her parents are respectful, every time she is a knitting girl and serving her husband, she will go to the mountains to collect medicine, regardless of the deep ravines and dangerous ravines, she will pick spiritual flowers and plants to boil for the two elders to drink, hoping that they will prolong their lives.

In the middle of January, the beautiful woman was so respectful and diligent that the two elders were not happy, but after several persuasions, they had to pretend to be impatient, and insisted that the beloved bride be sent to the horseshoe mountain, and they would live separately, so as to fulfill their good deeds of being newly married. However, even so, Na Xueyi will still go to the house to say hello to the second elder with all kinds of fruits and delicacies, which is very filial.

Ignoring these worldly things, the secluded son in the Horseshoe Mountain is also happy and free. The mountain is deep and the path is lost, and the wind can't blow the slightest red dust in the mortal world; Where they live, green bamboo grows all over the valley, and the new residence is hidden in the depths of the bamboo forest. Every time there is a mountain breeze blowing, the green bamboo becomes a wave, the breath is like the sea, living in it, it is the mood is pleasant, very comfortable. Every morning and dusk, there are mountain birds clinging to the eaves, and there is no need for chickens to crow; Jingmen Pengfeng does not close its door at night, and there is no danger of bandits. Every food, although there are no pickled vegetables and braised meat in the market, there are wild vegetables for cooking, and occasionally game, cooked by Xueyi, light and invigorated, it is a unique flavor.

In addition to staying at home, if he has free time, Xingyan and Xueyi will go to the nearby mountains and rivers hand in hand. The closer to the ridge, looking for the distant mountains, stepping moss, climbing vines, leaning on strange stones, overlooking the plains, taking the green roses and entering the valley, according to the cold pond with a positive crown, listening to the wind into the pine into a song, reading the spring around the stone into a chapter, tired of resting in the high post, nestled in the clouds, holding his breath, forgetting the shape, looking at the birds and returning to the fish, looking at the moon out of the east mountain. I have never experienced all this before, and it is really a rare immortal career.

After leisurely traveling, what Xingyan didn't expect was that he and Xue Yi lived in seclusion in Raozhou's horseshoe mountain, and later left all kinds of legends and anecdotes. Among them, there are two most famous, namely "Inviting Rain" and "Entering the Painting".

It is said that there was a great drought that year, the sun was blazing, there was no rain for months, the seedlings in the fields dried up, and the people were not able to make a living. In the midst of the great drought, the people of Raozhou prayed to God for rain, and they couldn't pray in any way, so they came to tell the little immortals of the Zhang family. When the little immortal heard this, he immediately smiled, burned the talisman, and said that although he banned the spell this year and couldn't practice the water method, he could invite the old friends of the South China Sea immortals to come and talk about it, and he should be able to leave a few drops of residual drain. At that time, when they heard what he said, everyone was puzzled, so they had to look at his actions in amazement. Wait for the talisman to burn, in a blink of an eye, I saw that the wind and clouds were different, and there was a cloudy cloud with the size of a copper coin flying in the southeast sky, and when it reached the top of Derao Prefecture in an instant, it had become a cloudy sky, and the sky was dark. In the drowsiness, there was a white-clothed Xiushi floating down in the clouds in the sky, his face was like a crown of jade, his spirit was flying, and when he landed, he heard him call himself "Little Brother Juntai", and it was too late to accuse, so he went to play chess in the Panasonic Pavilion with Zhang Xiaoxian. Just as the two of them were playing chess, there was a sudden gust of wind and thunder in the cloud path of the white-clothed immortal just now, and it didn't take long for the heavy rain to pour down, raining nectar. This is the "invitation to rain".

"Into the painting" is about Zhang Xiaoxian who went to the study in the city to visit his old school friends, and these classmates heard that he had attained enlightenment, so they begged if they could take them into the fairyland. When the immortal heard this, he smiled silently, and with a wave of his hand, the scholars found themselves in the deep green mountains. The pine is lush, the bamboo is forested, the road is lost in the summer grass, the path is confused by the spring moss, the four looks at the rivers and mountains are picturesque, the smoke is everywhere, and it is a real fairyland to see the charm. Stomping slightly, sure enough, the clouds, wingless self-flying, hovering on the rocks in a blink of an eye, wandering on the rainbow side, going to the ancient temple of the peak to visit the old monks, finding the waterfall and clear pond to meet the wandering girl, the cold river side fishing snow, the spring stream suddenly tied to the boat, must be in a moment, such as drunk and infatuated!

When obsessed, it seems to be a menstrual period for many years, and then you will have a strange fate, in a mountain pavilion stone path occasionally met a girl with a wounded spring, I am happy with my son, I admire my article, occasionally pick it with words, in a blink of an eye, it will be chaotic sweat, smoke fan nepotism, pink butterfly stealing incense, jasper broken melon, love and affection, and infinite joy. ** After that, I felt pregnant, and I was waiting to return with each other, telling my parents, saying that the family has an heir, and the fragrance of books has a succession, but a thunderbolt from the sky, shocked people's eyes, and woke up in a blink of an eye - when I look at it again, the sun is full of sunshine in the elegant room and the house is full of sunshine, and the fairy in front of me is sitting in danger, and the tea smoke is curling on the desk, and the freshly brewed tea is still warm.

"It turned out to be just a dream!"

When he was dumbfounded, he suddenly looked up and saw that there were four banners hanging on the powder wall of the Shuxuan, the water gully and the smoky mountain, the Qingxi ancient temple, the mountain pavilion and the rain, the wind and snow and the cold river, just like the scene experienced in the dream just now. It's a pity that now I am sober and know that this is just a landscape of fine brushwork decorated in the study, Han Shizhou's "Four Seasons of the Qinling Mountains"; even if it is vivid, it is only a painting of dead things. The scholar who dreamed of wandering immortals was completely awake, and couldn't help but glance at it a few more times, but suddenly found that in the scene of the four o'clock picture of spring, which he was extremely familiar with, the lady in red standing quietly on the stone path by the mountain pavilion was originally a pitiful virgin, but now her lower abdomen was slightly bulging, and her original depressed demeanor was swept away, only to feel that her eyes were flowing, and she smiled, as if she was staring at herself! Looking in front of her again, the pink butterfly that had been parked on a yellow flower on the side of the stone path had disappeared without a trace, and the lush spring grass in the flowers was unexpectedly low, as if it had just been pressed down by a heavy object. Soon after, he heard that he had bid farewell to his parents and had gone to the Qinling Mountains to learn the Tao...... This is the matter of "entering the painting".

Of course, most of these folk legends passed down from mouth to mouth are absurd and of unknown origin, and many of them are incomprehensible and just laugh at them.

Let's talk about wake-up words and snow yi. After about two months of immortal years, I don't know if it was a whim, I woke up and thought quietly, and suddenly remembered the bustling and lively city in Raozhou. So when I woke up early this morning, I saw Xue Yi dressing up in front of the window, so I looked at the slender back and suggested that I might as well go to Raozhou City today to see the excitement.

The husband proposed, Xue Yi naturally had no objection, quickly put on her buns, applied gouache thinly, and went back to help Xingyan get up and freshen up. About half an hour later, the two of them passed hand in hand from the green morning hills of Horseshoe Mountain, landed on the post road on the outskirts of Raozhou City, and walked slowly towards the Raozhou City.

It is also strange to say, on the willow trees on both sides of the post road in the eastern suburbs of Raozhou, there are surprisingly many magpies. As I went, I saw them fluttering and jumping on the branches, screaming non-stop. Hearing so many magpies chirping, Xue Yi was very happy, and told Xingyan that maybe there would be something happy today. Listening to her serious words, Xingyan only cared about laughing with her, saying that as long as he was with her, every day was happy, and it didn't matter if the magpie was crooked or not.

The little couple talked and laughed like this, and it didn't take long for them to walk into Raozhou City. At this time, it is said that the three poles are the morning market in Raozhou; the city of Raozhou, which has been separated for a long time, is still so lively, when passing by the vegetable market in the east of the city, people come and go, rubbing shoulders one after another, often waking up to protect Xueyi, and squeezing hard to pass through the cracks of people.

And this kind of morning market is full of sound, color and taste, the peasant merchants from all over the country and eight miles gather in the city, crowding through the market, only to hear the cries of various accents one after another, the sound of bargaining, the sound of fried breakfast, the sound of vendors arguing, the sound of women beating children, the sound of donkeys neighing horses, the sound of dogs biting chickens, one after another, the noise of a mess. In the noisy noise of the sky, there are all kinds of smells, the burnt fragrance of fritters, the fragrance of vegetables, the salty fragrance of lo-mei, the fishy fragrance of aquatic products, the smell of people's sweat, all kinds of smells are permeated in the air, mixed with the smoke and dust of the market, stirred into a ball, and rushed to the brain!

For such a mixed smell of smoke and dust in the market, the awakening words do not dodge or avoid, but greedily sniff and suck. This familiar smell is so peculiar that it can remind him of the past in an instant, and recall all kinds of things that happened in this taste. At that time, although it was the same as this taste, it was a mixture of sweet and sour, but after years of blending, it was able to blend into a unique flavor, and whenever I wanted to come, I smiled happily and knew it. Such a heart could not be conveyed, so he could only hold the jade hand of the girl next to him and silently walk through the market.

Squeezed through the lively East Market, you will come to the relatively sparsely populated Middle Street. There, Xingyan accompanied Xue Yi to pick out a few clothes, buy a few pieces of jewelry, and give her a colorful origami windmill. When I got the toy windmill, Mei Ling, who has always been quiet and quiet, rarely played with a big heart, the apricot mouth was slightly open, and the windmill was blowing whirringly. Mei Ling, who is easy not to smile, occasionally opens her face like this, and she radiates a thousand styles, which makes the hall master on the side feel excited, and the flowery smile that looks at her does not want to move for a moment.

After seeing it for a while, just as Xingyan suddenly became suspicious and wondered if he was really a womanizer, suddenly a few naughty boys ran by, and heard them shouting as they ran:

"Circus!

Amid the shouts of joy, the children ran to the west of the city, ran past the street corner, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

"Circus?"

Xingyan pondered the child's shouting for a while, and suddenly became interested, so he wiped his mouth a little and salivated, pulled Xue Yi, and walked towards the west of the city.

At this time, he and Xue Yi hadn't realized what kind of surprise this trip would bring to them!

But he said soberly, pulled Xue Yi around four or five street corners, passed through seven or eight alleys, and approached the school army square on Naxi Street for about half an hour. Although this is called the school military field, Xingyan knows very well that those military masters in Raozhou will not practice a few times a month, and when they are okay in peacetime, this is the best stage for all kinds of circus juggling. The granite platform in the north is a point general platform, and it has been holding a bamboo pole to open a curtain, and the rockery garden is painted with oil paint, and it will only be withdrawn when it is windy and rainy or when the old man really comes to point soldiers.

Approaching the military field of the school he was familiar with, before he got close, he saw that there was a tent made of oilcloth in the open space on this side of the square, which occupied a large area. On the military horse stakes in the military yard next to the tent, there are several jujube red horses tied to them, plowing the ground from time to time. Next to the horses, there were several large carts parked, and the one near here saw several cages in them, and in them were several mountain beasts, none other than macaques and black bears, who were lazily and listlessly watching the children frolicking outside the cages.

"Ha~"

Looking at this situation, it is clear that the previous minions have misreported the military situation, and it is clear that the circus performance has not yet begun. Funny and reminiscent of my childhood, it was clear that the circus only started in the afternoon when people were relatively free, and now that the sun was not yet at noon, perhaps the circus troupes from afar were still asleep and recuperating for the afternoon performances.

Thinking of this, Xingyan was a little disappointed, grabbed Xue Yi's hand, and was about to turn around. It's just that just as he was about to turn around, he suddenly heard a crisp sound in the tent opposite, which was clearly the sound of pots and pans falling to the ground. When he was surprised, he immediately heard a soft and crisp voice like a warbler's voice, and he was laughing and exclaiming:

"Hee-hee!

Listening to the words, I saw a little girl in a yellow shirt running out of the tent, with an uncle with a burnt yellow goatee behind her, looking sad and angry, and chased after the little girl and scolded.

"That's ......"

As soon as he heard the voice, Xingyan suddenly froze, and when the embarrassed little girl ran out of the tent and saw her smiling face, he blurted out in unison with the woman beside him:

"Joan Wei?!"

"Huh?"

"Who's calling me?"

The little sister, who was fleeing dizzily, didn't look at the two of them for a while, and jumped up and ran a few steps towards this side, and then she settled down and took a look, and suddenly clapped her hands and shouted:

"Brother Xingyan, Sister Xue Yi, Qiong Wei has finally found you!"

After a long absence, the happy little girl was about to run over, but she didn't expect the circus master behind her to take advantage of her and pant to arrive;

"Huh?!"

Seeing that she was blocked, the delicate little sister shouted angrily:

"I, I'm in a hurry to talk to my brother, you dare to stop me?"

"Hey, hey!"

Seeing that she was annoyed, the circus owner who had regarded Qiong Wei as a cash cow for more than a month didn't want to let her run away like this. Immediately, he laughed twice, stretched out his hand and grabbed Qiong Wei's two jade arms, and shouted:

"I won't let you go!"

"Let me go!"

"Don't let it!"

Talking to children, the uncle of this class leader is still energetic, and he grimaced with the girl in front of him, and said to her shamefully:

"Scared, little girl, go with someone, become a dog!"

"Huh?"

Upon hearing this, Qiong Wei was furious and exclaimed:

"I'm not a dog—— wow!"

"Wow!~"

As soon as Qiong Wei's words fell, the unreasonable class master suddenly screamed!

It turned out that between the words just now, Xiao Qiongwei had already lowered his mouth to this class master, and when he opened his mouth in the sun, he saw the cold light of the jade teeth full of mouths, and bit down on the bare right arm of the class master. In an instant, the master of the class grinned in pain, like a sheep having a seizure of epilepsy, shaking his right hand vigorously, trying to shake off the little girl. However, this little girl is petite and extremely flexible, no matter how the tall and tall class owner shakes her hand, the little girl bites the skin and flesh on her arm, and her delicate little body hangs in the air like this, and is thrown back and forth like a swing, just don't fall!

"Wow!"

The greedy class owner, who was in severe pain, didn't realize that the more he shook it, the more painful it became, and he just shook his hand in a hurry, like a convulsion. While throwing it off, he still remembered tearful rebuke:

"Oh my god, you dare to say you're not a dog?!"

"Uh......"

This farce, in the eyes of the hall master of the four seas, is just crying and laughing!

Seeing that the bitten squad leader was in tears, Xingyan hurriedly rushed to them with Xue Yi and shouted:

"Qiong Wei let go quickly~"

"Hmm-"

"Hmm!"

Hearing the command of Xingyan, the little girl who was biting had to let go, and with the strength of the class master's handshake, her small body swung back, and Qiong Wei rushed into Xingyan's arms like a swallow piercing the clouds. When I got to my arms, a delicate peach cheek was close to my chest, rubbing and rubbing, just like biting someone just now, and never left!

Precisely:

Unprovoked hysteries are at hand, who will not be able to recover?

When the river and sea come, people are like jade, and the moon is like smoke after Yao Palace goes!
