Chapter 3 Tibetan Horse Bird Road

About a tea hour later, Yu Sanbai let out a long breath, slowly turned around, and said with a smile: "Fengsheng, how is Uncle Yu's calligraphy?"

Lin Fengsheng fixed his eyes and saw that the big stone was neatly engraved with "This water is dumb and poisonous, and pedestrians in the past cannot drink" a few big characters, the pen is smooth, and it is as deep as an axe and knife sharpening, and he said happily: "A few words, Ze and passers-by, good words, good words." Walking over and stroking the words on the stone, Wu Zi was a little incredulous.

Miao Le and the others have been walking outside all the year round and know some martial arts, and when they saw Yu Sanbai's kung fu exposed, they all looked respectful, and praised him for his martial arts and bodhisattva heart.

Lin Fengsheng took the iron pen from Yu Sanbai's hand, and followed his example to draw a few strokes on the boulder, but he couldn't even scratch the slightest mark, and he sighed a long sigh, and everyone couldn't help but laugh again when they saw it.

Lin Fengsheng said: "According to legend, the great calligrapher Wang Xizhi's writing pen is vigorous, into the wood three points, but after all, it is only a legend, the little nephew felt that there was an exaggeration before, today I saw Uncle Yu carved stone words, only to know what is called the famous under the void." Wang Xizhi is known as the saint of books, so naturally his pen is as powerful as a god, and there is no doubt about it. Uncle Yu has the nickname of both books and swords, and he is also worthy of the name and extraordinary. Calligraphy is really beyond the reach of a nephew. ”

Miao Le also hurriedly said: "Exactly, the predecessors have excellent calligraphy, and even rude people like the little nephew are admired so much." ”

Another man who drove the horse gave a thumbs up and said: "Senior Yu's handwriting is really beautiful, and the means of engraving are even more clever, amazing, amazing." The other caravans also gathered around to watch and admire.

Yu Sanbai said with a smile: "Although the wood board is different from the rock material, Wang Xizhi uses a brush, and the old man uses an iron pen, and this section has already been reached." In addition, the old man has some internal skills, but he has taken a great advantage in terms of strength. And his handwriting is smooth, chic and beautiful, a hundred times better than me. If you want to compare that, it is also far from it, and it cannot be compared. ”

Lin Fengsheng said: "That Wang Xi's official worships the general of the right army, and he must always have some martial arts. Uncle Yu doesn't have to be too humble. ”

Several men on the side also echoed: "Lin Gongzi said very much, since the surname Wang has been a general, he must have extremely high martial arts, and the predecessors have not taken advantage of it at all, so the writing skills are comparable, or the seniors are more clever than the surnamed Wang." ”

Yu Sanbai listened to a few people to flatter himself, but he was quite disparaging to a generation of calligraphers, and he was quite unhappy in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "You can't talk nonsense, and you can't have the slightest disrespect for your predecessors. I think that "Orchid Pavilion Preface" is known as "the first line of books in the world", and the wonder of calligraphy is ancient and unparalleled, and no one can reach it, and such words will never be mentioned again in the future!" Several people saw that he was angry, coughed a few times, lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.

Seeing this, Miao Le hurriedly scolded: "You few things that are not successful, you can't even read a basket of big characters, and you are also worthy of pointing out the calligraphy of Yu's predecessors and the ancients! When a few people saw that the horse pot was angry, they didn't dare to come out, so they ran back to the horse team with a smoke.

Miaole smiled at Yu Sanbai again: "The rough people in the countryside are not reasonable, seniors must not take it to heart." ”

Yu Sanbai waved his hand and smiled: "Virtuous nephews don't need to be angry. That is to teach them to understand the principle of respecting the virtuous. ”

Lin Fengsheng couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw this, and said in his heart: "Uncle Yu's preaching really looks like an old scholar in the school. ”

Yu San glanced at him in vain, and said: "I will wait for the stone to be carved today, which is also considered a merit, but this is what my generation should do, and there is no need to stay too much, so I will hurry." ”

The men of the horse gang rejoiced in their hearts, sang the tune of driving the horses, and continued to move forward. Don't take the things of the party for granted. Singing word cloud: "The head horse is dressed in a glass mirror, and a thousand beads are worn with a horse pullover." A red tassel covers the mouth, and the brain is tied with a hydrangea ......"

After another journey, the mountain road became more and more rugged, and the group climbed a steep slope, and the road in front of them was suddenly cut off, and at the end was an abrupt cliff. Under the cliff is a canyon, as if it was dug out of this mountain, the clouds are covered in fog, and the bottom is not visible.

The high cliffs on both sides of the strait face each other, and they are separated by dozens of zhang, leaving only a stone road more than three feet wide on the cliff wall on the left leading to the other end. When Lin Fengsheng saw such a steep terrain at first glance, he couldn't help but gasp, and couldn't help but stop and didn't dare to move forward.

Miao Le pursed her lips and whistled, and everyone and the horses stopped. A man took a yak horn from the saddle of the head horse, walked to the edge of the cliff and whined, startling a flock of birds to chirp and scatter.

Yu Sanbai and Lin Fengsheng were both walking with the horse gang for the first time, so they couldn't help but be a little confused, so Miao Le explained: "This is to test whether there is a horse gang coming over on the other side, and if someone is passing, they will also blow the horn in response." ”

Lin Fengsheng felt very curious, and said: "I see, this is also a good way." This stone path is so narrow, it is indeed difficult to avoid if you encounter it halfway. ”

After a few moments, no horns were heard, only a few ape-like cries echoed through the valley. Miao Legao said: "All the brothers cheer up, take care of their horses, and cross the bird road." The crowd agreed.

The man who blew the horn led the horse and walked up the stone path first, and the rest of the horses slowly followed one after another. Lin Fengsheng walked at the end between Yu Sanbai and Miaole, and he didn't dare to look out at a glance, and followed Yu Sanbai's footsteps closely. This bird road is certainly dangerous, but the people of the horse gang have walked back and forth dozens of times, and they are used to it, and they have nothing to do all the way.

After about a meal, the stone road turned a big bend, and the people and horses in front of them disappeared after turning the rocks. Miaole said: "This bird road is more than three miles long, and the cliff road on the other side is longer than the one on this side. Since the people and horses of the past were covered by the cliffs, it looks as if they disappeared out of thin air from behind, and it was the ancestors who drove the horses that called this stone road the 'Tibetan Horse Bird Road'."

Yu Sanbai said, "You have been going back and forth here all the year round, and you must have encountered a lot of dangers, right?"

Miao Le said: "It is also common for new horses to be timid and impetuous, to run around and fall into the deep valley. We've seen a lot of hardships and dangers in eating this bowl of rice, and that's nothing. As he spoke, he sang loudly: "The mountain on the side of the road is high and the rocky cliff is steep, and the big bell rings back." When I went, there were thirty mules and horses, and when I came back, there were only nine pairs of ......."

Lin Feng was very scared at the beginning, and he didn't dare to say a word, his eyes were just staring at Yu Sanbai's heels. As he walked, he gradually grew bolder, and when he heard the wonderful song, he smiled and said: "Brother Miao, your lyrics should be changed, 'There were thirty mules and horses when I came, and only nine pairs passed here', which is in line with the danger of this place." ”

Yu Sanbai scolded: "Nonsense, aren't you cursing your big brother Miao, don't violate the taboo in the gang." ”

Miaole smiled heartily and said: "Seniors don't have to worry too much, my horses are all used to walking on the road, there is a way for old horses to know the way, when they come, there are thirty, and when they go out, there are still thirty, and one is indispensable." That's a no-no. The three of them laughed together.

Miao Le said again: "Brother Lin's word has been changed well, brother, I have it in mind." Later, when I went to the difficult place, I asked the brothers to sing these two tunes, so as to remind everyone to be careful. ”

The three of them turned the corner, and saw that the people and horses in front of them had stopped for some reason, and Miao Le shouted: "What are you doing slowly, if you want to rest, you have to wait until you get out of this hellish place, don't stop, hurry up and move forward!"

The man who walked at the end said: "I can't walk, the front is blocked." ”

Miaole said: "Pass the word and ask what's going on." ”

Because there were few horses, and only a man drove the horses after five or six horses to take care of them, and the distance between the end and the end was quite far away, so if you wanted to know the situation ahead, you could only pass them on one by one. The man said to the man in front of him, "Hey, the cauldron head asked you what's going on?" and the man shouted to the man in front of him again.

After a while, it was passed down one by one from the front to the back, and the last man listened to it and said: "Big cauldron, I heard that there is a gang on the other side blocking the way, and I have quarreled with them." ”

The second man in front of him was very loud when he spoke, and Miao Le had already heard it in his ears, and said angrily: "Lao Tzu has already heard, who is so bold and dares to compete with Lao Tzu." Xiang Yu Sanbai and Lin Fengsheng said: "Seniors and Brother Lin wait for a while, and wait for me to go up and take a look." He drew a single knife from the horse's saddle, and bent down to burrow through the horse's belly and went forward.

Yu Sanbai said: "Look at this fight, a battle is inevitable, let's take a look." ”

Lin Fengsheng said: "That's what I said, this road is so dangerous, don't make any trouble." ”

Yu Sanbai said: "If you drill through the belly of the horse like this, I'm afraid that there will already be a lot of trouble ahead." With that, he stretched out his hand to support Lin Fengsheng's armpits, put his feet on the ground a little, and his body jumped forward.

Lin Fengsheng exclaimed, his body was already in the air, he squinted and looked at the right, he was still in the deep valley, his mind was dizzy, he didn't dare to look again, he hurriedly closed his eyes, and grabbed Yu Sanbai's shirt tightly with both hands.

Yu Sanbai performed light skills, relying on the horse's back to borrow strength, leaping like flying on the horse team, and falling together is several feet away, which is really like walking on the ground.

Lin Fengsheng could only hear the whirring wind in his ears, his body was high and low, and he was extremely frightened, and he meditated on Amitabha Buddha over and over again, blessed by the Bodhisattva. I don't know how many times I recited Amitabha, the wind suddenly stopped, the body slowly fell, and then my feet stepped on the ground, only to hear the sound of shouting and scolding mixed with the sound of gold and iron clashing.

Knowing that he had reached the place where the two gangs were arguing, he opened his eyes, and when he recalled the situation, he felt palpitations, his body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and his palms were full of cold sweat.
