Chapter 108: Spring search

Dagu border is the wilderness gate, the gates are wide open, and there are only a few of the city's light rides. The rare night march is chosen. Although it is only a thousand rides, when the neat horses are trampled on the ground, the ground is still shaking. The intensive and violent drumming sounds make people excited.
Next to the winding road, a horse-riding general will stop at the side and his face will be dignified.
A young deputy with a kelp on his face rushed to the horse, slowed down the horseshoe, and side by side with the Lord, and whispered, "Han General, this is going north, what is the intention? I am in the north of the territory. How could there be a big sneak thief? If it happens, it will not be our squadron?"
The stalwart master will have a low voice. "Don't ask if you shouldn't ask."
The young rider will pout and really no longer ask.
The Navy’s owner of the Cavalry will hesitate a bit. It’s probably a bit uncomfortable for himself. After pondering it, he whispered:
Not only our wild husbands shut this point, but also the military towns in the southern border. Nearly half of the main field sprint rides are drawn, and all the nests are released tonight."
The young rider will squat for a moment. "A four-year round of spring search, Xia Miaoqiu, and winter hunting? It’s not right, we have participated in the spring search last year. Even if there is such a large-scale performance in this year, it should be placed. It’s right in summer.

The Lord will subconsciously touch the sturdy horses of the mount, saying: "After arriving at the temporary station, the court will have the next order, so we don't have to think about it."

Red Candle Town is more than two hundred miles west of the river. In the upper reaches of the vast embroidered river in the river, there is a small mountain in the middle of the water. It is called the Shantou Mountain by the local people. There is a solitary land temple on the mountain. The incense is endless. It is a famous place for scholars to travel by boat. However, the local people almost never come here to worship incense.
The spring of the spring is cold and the river is rolling cold. The waves are splashing and faintly visible. There is a three-foot-long cyan squid in the river. It swims quickly from the shore to Xiaogushan. The surprising thing is that there is a Zhuyi sitting on the back. The boy, but the height of the palm, the two hands of the two feet of the green, the knight, like a knight to pull the reins, the little boy with the squid and the river ups and downs, soaked, pale, sly, stunned.
Qinglan swam to the shore and suddenly stopped. He directly smashed the Zhuyi boy to the shore. The little guy played a series of rolling, gray-faced face, swaying back to the river, and returning to the opposite side of the cyan scorpion, screaming, "on the beam If you are not squatting, your master is a slut..."
The squid suddenly turned and stared at the Zhu Yi boy on the shore. The latter was scared to the bottom of his mouth. He said that the good man did not fight with the woman and ran to the land temple.
The small temple was not closed. The little guy finally climbed over the threshold. After turning over and landing, he looked up at the funny muddy figure that was painted badly. He yelled at the hips and said: "The uncle almost drowned in the river, you are not hurrying down. The purpose?? Believe it or not, I will rule you a big disrespectful sin, and lick your head?"
Silently.
Zhu Yi was kidnapped as a stone and kicked out of the land temple.
There is a man with five short statures sitting on the threshold and shouting: "You are the incense boy born in this broken temple, dare to talk to the uncle, I claim to be the uncle?"
Not a family, not a door.
The Zhu Yi boy ran back all the way panting, squatting up the door and sitting, licking his mouth and grimacing.
The man frowned and asked: "What is it?"
The little guy shouted: "A bit hungry."
The man raised his arm and tried to fight. Zhu Yi’s boy hugged his head and said:
I just heard the news from the city’s city hall, saying that it was the secret ceremonies of the imperial court and Qin Tianjian. All the landscape spirits that require the thousands of miles around the Red Candle Town are on standby, not allowed to leave their posts, not closed, and must be on call. If they are awkward, they cannot appear on time, and they will be determined on time! Your grandfather’s It’s not that I am giving you a message, but your lazy temper has already given people a knife to kill people... Oh, forget that you are not a person...

The little guy was thrown into the land temple by a slap.
Hanzi stood up and looked in the direction of the Red Candle Town. He looked solemn and did not forget to remind him: "There is a meal for you in the incense burner, remember to save some food."
"I think you have a little conscience. I really don't know how you mix it. In one state, the longest pity of the land in the temple, and the relationship with the same with us, even the embroidered rivers, the shrimps and crabs will dare not Putting you in your eyes, you said that I am so unlucky, born in your stove? Hey, you should find a better stove to reincarnate in your next life..." Zhu Yi’s boy kept complaining on his mouth, but he did not delay him. The door was cooked on the road and climbed into the incense case, and the one was thrown into a brass incense burner with seven or eight incense sticks scattered.

On the way back to the pillow, Lu Chengsheng found the child beside him, biting his teeth and sighing at once, as if he was making a life-and-death decision.
Li Wei finally stopped and took the courage to ask: "Old Cheng, I have 30 yuan on my body. Can I go to the previous bookstore to buy a book? How much is the cheapest book there? Can you give it? What am I left?"
The man who was called the old man was a little crying and laughing. After thinking about it, he replied seriously: "Difficult. The book of the shop is not recognized as a non-benefit in the Red Candle Town. If you are not interested in collecting rare books, no one goes. Buying books over there. If you really want to buy a book, I know that there are two big bookstores in the east, Confucian classics, essays, and geek novels, where I can help you counter-offer."
A child with a rib shook his head and said: "No, you have to be a bookstore!"
These are all the surplus food that Li Wei secretly left behind. Most of them are stolen from the family. The younger half is the private money of her sister Li Liu.
Before in the bookstore, the poor sour guy who wore straw shoes in the whole year was neither a swollen face and a fat man. If he didn’t say anything, he bought a broken book with nearly a dozen silver coins. He didn’t refuse it on the spot. He didn’t want to spend so much money for him. .
Instead, ask if he will read the book.
This made Li Wei very surprised. Although he said that he would look at it at the time, in fact, after buying it, he would certainly look at it and read the time to pass it. Li Wei was not very interested in this "Water Breaking Cliff".
But when someone is willing to take out twelve silver for themselves, Li Wei feels very happy.
Li Wei is not stupid. Others are good or bad to him, and the child knows well and is clear.
A pair of double-soled shoes, not yet built a good bookcase, plus this "water-breaking cliff", owed so many people, so Li Wei feels that if he does not do something for Chen Ping, he will not care, and his heart is blocked.
In fact, Li Wei does not like Zhu Lu, and even Lin Shouyi, who is in trouble with the common situation, does not like how to like it. Instead, he often bullies his own Li Bao bottle while he is learning. He feels pretty good.
Li Wei likes A Liang who is a lover.
As for the poor egg from the mud bottle lane, Li Wei was afraid of him.
At this time, Cheng Chengsheng looked down at the serious face of the child, thinking that it was the so-called immortal qualification of the guy. Some things were really blessed to the soul. He held back his smile and thought that he would just push the boat and help the child. If you are not sure, you will end up with a big incense. Being good with others, and being a good one with thousands of ordinary people, is far better than forming a good relationship with a fairy. This is what he saw with his own eyes, and he heard it with his own ears.
Cheng Sheng took the child to the alley between the two streets. The young shopkeeper, sitting on the threshold, looked at them with a smile on his face, as if waiting for them.
At this time, at the other end of the alley, the old man who walked into a portable lantern was facing the opposite of Li Wei.
The young son slowly got up and waved his hand to the side of the journey. "Today's bookstore is closed, and I will bring this child back to buy a book."
Cheng Sheng did not say that he took Li Wei and turned around and left.
The young and graceful younger brother, after confirming that the two left the alley, they will not see the bleak leisure before, and they will be slightly respectful and cramped. They will scream: "Chongjiang Li Jin, see the Langzhong adults."
The white-haired old man was behind his hand, a hand-held lantern, nodded, and crossed the threshold of the bookstore. The young man who sideways let the road follow, the old man inserted the lantern handle into the low end of the book wall. Turning his head and looking at the young man like Guan Yu, he said with emotion: "You and I met for the first time 40 years ago. You are such a face. Today, goodbye, still, and others."
The young man clenched the folding fan and smiled: "It is a great blessing for us to be born to us."
The old man nodded and did not refute.
The young man curiously asked: "Which person can live in the pillow, is it an adult arrangement?"
The old man kept silent.
Young people are no longer asking for interest.
He opened this small bookstore a hundred years ago, and looked at the world with cold eyes. He saw more people and the storm of the sea. He is no stranger to the officialdom of Dagu. He wants to vacate so many Jiayi houses in the pillows. It is almost six. The servant’s ability, of course, except for the three francs. The Daxu court, the six departments of the Shumen Shangshu, the Langzhong is the chief officer of each division, and the foreigner is the adjutant, from the five products. Lang Zhonghe’s official position is not obvious, but there are three francs, the authority is big, beyond imagination.
This is the Department of Examinations of the Ministry of Military Affairs, the Department of Military Elections of the Ministry of Military Affairs, and the Department of the Ministry of Rites, and the priests of the Ministry of Education. These three division chiefs can be said to be inferior in weight and arrogant in the eyes of the ruins. Once they are placed outside, they will inevitably become a shack.
A person in charge of the promotion of all local officials under the four dynasties.
One is responsible for screening and reviewing the promotion of warriors for the military of the dynasty, and in particular, the power of the people of the rivers and lakes.
A person who is specifically responsible for a country's ritual ceremony, many times the king must ask this person, this high-ranking civil servant is often a Confucian school, college origin.
This one is not one of the old people who are not amazing.
Forty years ago, as the owner of this bookstore, Li Jin once gave a textbook of two gentlemen who went to Beijing to take the exam. He did not expect that the Hanshi was promoted all the way and became the Qing Dynasty ritual. The franc of the division is clear and weighty. However, for Li Jin, who is not in the temple and far away from the rivers and lakes, there is another layer of meaning in the ritual rituals. It is said that this is a small door. It is said that many Beijing officials can’t find the door, but they secretly control the world. God's screening assessment, although there is no final right to assign, has a crucial recommendation.
By passing through the bureaucrats of the Red Candle Town, Li Jin learned that after the old man sat in this position, he sent several letters. All of them did not enter the sea, and there was no news. Li Jin did not dare to make it. He had to regret it.
In the past 100 years, Li Jin’s
young man
has been painstakingly trying to find the position of the river and the gods. He used many incense sticks and returned without success.
The old man suddenly said: "The reason why the Chongjiang River does not have the position of the of the river, you should know the reason, so you quietly sent the letter to my house, I only did not see, not unwilling to help, but actually Being powerless."
The young man smiled bitterly and nodded. "Understand. As long as the emperor does not nod his head, I am afraid that the book of the Ministry of Rites will not be used."
The old man smiled and stared at the young man in front of him. Every two or three decades, this person would change his face and look at the face. The old man blinked: "But now there is a chance in front of you, so you can’t dare to fight. ""
The young man did not show excitement, and asked: "I heard that it was once in the Longquan County of Zhuzhudongtian. The Emperor of Daxie sealed a dragon in the river, an iron river, a god, a mountain, a mountain, and a mountain. Each of the Luoshan Mountains sealed a mountain god, giving three mountains and two waters at a time, a total of five seats, which has already used many of the emperor's family, how could it be worthwhile to throw a valuable hedge against the Lijiang River when this is about to be stretched. Quota?"
The old man smiled and said: "Reassured, it is not a plot against you. It’s hard to hear. You still don’t let me go out."
The young people were a little angry and angry, and then there were some helpless colors under the fence, no longer talking.
The old man converges with a smile, saying: "With the red candle town as the center, within a thousand miles, all the mountains and rivers of the Datun imperial court, as well as the alternate land and river Po, all need to be on standby in the near future, ready to participate in a cofferdam. In addition, in the southern town of Daguyefu, a large number of elite cavalry were dispatched, and countless scouts were thrown out. As for Li Jin, if it was not the gift of the book that year, I will never tell you this news. There is no difference between you and you."
Li Jin was shocked and unable to add up. "What are you doing in such a big battle in Datun? What is it in the encirclement?"
The old man bluntly said, "One person."
Li Jinwang’s eyes on the elderly did not seem to be false. He slowly asked:
What do you need me to do?

The old man smiled and said: "The little things that can be done with a little effort, just need to help to peg a man who has just arrived in the Red Candle Town, because I know that after going out of the Chongjiang River for more than two hundred years, you are doing a good job in the Red Candle Town. They are more familiar with the waterway, and they are more familiar with the winds of the town than the two river gods. And if there are no mistakes in the archives of the capital, you have a few rare blue-green fishes, which are from ancient books and are most suitable for small-scale investigation and transmission. Message."
Li Jin's face is not very good looking.
The old man sneered: "Let your heart relax, the blue-headed fish is indeed a hundred years old, but I am not going to make it to the point of seeing the money."
Li Jin laughed at himself: "I am the gentleman's belly with the heart of a villain."
He immediately asked, "Who is that person?"
The old man slowly replied: "A man with a fight, there is a silver gourd at the waist, followed by a group of children, those children from the former Zhuozhudong, now the Longquan County. As for the true identity of the man, the embarrassment Not yet known."
Li Jin’s eyes are stunned. "The man has been to my shop before."
The old man looks like electricity.
Li Jin said carefully: "Coincidence."
The old man waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter. From now on, remember not to show your feet, even if you have no work, it's better. If you accidentally stunned the snake because of your mistakes, you don't have to worry, because you must have been there at that time. Dead, that person will not kill you, I will also do it myself."
"But if this thing becomes, I can't guarantee that you will become a of the river, but I can let the emperor remember your name first."
Li Jin ridiculed himself: "Is this a simple figure in the emperor?"
The old man stopped to read the book and read it. He turned and asked: "Why, don't you?"
Li Jin haha ​​laughed: "There is no need for wealthy insurance, not to mention that I don't need to be personally trapped, and I can't make a profit without buying it."
He hit a ring, near the shoulders, two extremely delicate little fish with tails emerged. They are the same as his god. The fish sees it, which is what Li Jinmu is.
They sway the long tail and disappear instantly.
Before the old man left, he smiled and said: "The price of your book is still so expensive."
Only at this moment, Li Jin felt that the old man was faintly aware of the elegance of the young Hanshi.
The old man took back the lantern and left the shop.
The old man walked out of the alley, standing at the corner with a burly man with arms around his chest. The two men walked side by side. The latter asked: "Is not afraid of painting a snake?"
The old man said casually: "In fact, this hunting, closing the net to this point, then Li Jin even suddenly lost heart, went to the man called Aliang, said that breaking the truth, it does not matter."
The man did not have a good air: "In the final analysis, is it still necessary to return his book for the year?"
The old man smiled and squinted, revealing a bit of conceit, whispered: "I owe the human condition, how much is worth the money."

Zhu Lu said that he would like to eat candied haws. Although Zhu He was somewhat curious, how did his own prostitute suddenly like sweets, but this requirement is nothing but a girl to go to find a stall.
In the end, I was really found by my father and daughter. There were hawkers with a bunch of candied haws, walking down the street and shouting loudly.
Zhu He did not like this thing, Zhu Lu bought three strings in one breath, Zhu He had some doubts, the girl smiled and said that she ate a string, the other two strings can give Miss and Chen Pingan.
The girl also said that she wanted to apologize to the boy tonight, so I would like to say sorry to him, so that I can feel at ease.
Zhu He is relieved and open-minded.
The father and the daughter returned to the station and learned that Chen Ping and Li Baobo had returned to the pillow.
Zhu Lu, a string of candied haws, has not finished eating. He picked up the yard behind the shack, and asked his father to help him to confess to Chen Ping, saying that he would meet with Chen Ping.
Zhu River strode away, and his heart was a little funny. This girl’s face was too thin, and he bowed his head and recognized the wrong one. What was shameful.
Not long after, the sandals and teenagers appeared at the end of the painted corridor. After seeing the Zhulu sitting on the other end of the bench, the teenager slightly accelerated.
On the bench on the side of the girl, there were fifteen or six candied haws.
The girl smiled and stood up, her hands behind her, and her posture seemed to be delicate.
She walked to the teenager.
