Chapter 2: There are monsters in mountains and rivers, and old age

The green shirt man and the little girl climbed upstairs, and they happened to meet Li Fuyao who had just finished talking. Now it is time to drink and moisturize his throat, so I waited to see the green shirt man and girl at the table by the window. At that time, Li Fuyao was a little surprised.
Baiyu Town is such a small place, which is not big. Therefore, Li Fuyao, the residents of this small town, have known almost all of them many years ago, and since the storytelling in the restaurant, the visitors have come and gone. There are only a few, even if there are a few more occasionally, but they are all people in the town, but now, the two people in front of me have indeed never seen them.
The man in the green shirt sat by the window and looked at the center of the lobby. He happened to meet Li Fuyao's sight. The two looked at each other. The man in the blue shirt nodded with a smile. Li Fuyao nodded slightly in return and no longer struggled. Turn to continue to talk about the next story.
Li Fuyao has been telling stories in restaurants for several years, and I don’t know how many stories have been told. Generally speaking, other storytellers will inevitably start telling some old stories that have already been told. But here is Li Fuyao, daily stories They are all different, so naturally they all like to listen to him.
After drinking the wine, Li Fuyao started to tell the next story again. This story tells the story of those monks in mountains and rivers. It's just that they are not blindly beaten and killed. On the contrary, there are many infatuated sections. A story says After that, the drinkers in the restaurant were a little sad. The girls had red eyes, and even the little girl who had just entered the building had other emotions.
Li Fuyao, who had told several stories in a row, stopped talking. He just stood up and signaled that he was here today. Then he took off his slightly wide blue shirt and handed it to the young man who was waiting by his side. Turning around, thinking about going to the shopkeeper of the restaurant to get his money today, but before he took a few steps, the man in the green shirt opened his mouth.
"Little Mr. Stay."
Li Fuyao was a little surprised, but he still had a plain expression and didn't rush to leave. After he sat down at the table, the man in the blue shirt smiled and said, "What the little sir just said in these books is very interesting. It's not boring at all. It's not boring at all. It's not boring at all. There are still many stories in it, even I haven't heard of it before."
Li Fuyao looked flat and calmly said, "It's just a meal, and the story inside can't be taken seriously."
Perhaps he was a little surprised at the calmness of this young man. The man in the green shirt was a little surprised. He was silent for a moment and never spoke. Instead, Li Fuyao quickly asked, "You don't look like a local, why did you come to Baiyu Town?"
The man in the green shirt asked calmly, "Is the young man from the county office?"
I haven't said a word, but both sides already know the meaning of the words. The man in the green shirt is telling Li Fuyao that since you are not from the county government, what qualifications do you have to ask him what he is here for?
Li Fuyao was silent for a long time, just looking down at the dirt on the wooden table that remained for years, no matter how he wiped it off. He has been in this small town for more than ten years and has not met such an interesting person.
The little girl did not go to see Li Fuyao, she was just looking at the scenery outside the window.
The man in Qingshan didn't intend to delve into this issue, and soon asked: "The little gentleman is a local, so naturally he should know, is there anything abnormal in the current Baiyu Town?"
Li Fuyao smiled suddenly, he raised his head and looked at the man in the green shirt.
There was a slight ridicule in his eyes.
The man in the green shirt soon knew why this was. He asked a question in the opposite direction. Now the boy was obviously reminding him that he was not qualified to ask him about things in Baiyu Town.
The green shirt man suddenly sighed, he hadn't seen such an interesting boy in a long time.
The teenagers who could compete with him were rare in the academy, and meeting one in this poor country made him even more interested.
The man in the green shirt was silent for a moment, then smiled and asked, "Since the little gentleman is a storyteller, he is naturally talking about the mountain spirits and monsters all day long, and the mountain and river monks, have you really seen him?"
When he mentioned this, the young man frowned, but he soon calmed down. He smiled and said, "If you have read the sage book, it would not be difficult to know the truth in the sage book. Have you really seen the sages who wrote the sage book? "
Until now, the teenagers still refuse to give in.
The man in the green shirt frowned, "The little gentleman's temper is really not good. It's okay in such a small place, but if you walk out of this place, your temper needs to be changed."
Li Fuyao calmly shook his head, "Mr. Bu Lao worry about it."
The man in the green shirt smiled and quickly returned to the topic, "When you come here, naturally you have important matters. If you can't solve it, I am afraid it will affect the people of this small town. Therefore, please tell me the truth. Tell whether there is anything unusual in the town."
Li Fuyao questioned: "Is this big enough to affect the people in this small town?"
The man in the green shirt did not speak, but only slightly flicked his sleeves. The bowl of tea originally placed on the wooden table was suspended in the air, not far from the wooden table, which is about half a finger distance. Therefore, apart from the close observation of Li Fuyao, The rest of the people really didn't see anything unusual.
But for this, Li Fuyao did not show any horror expression, but there was some light in his eyes, "Monk Mountain and River?"
The man in the blue shirt on the opposite side nodded slowly after a brief absence.
He quickly asked again: "Confucianism or Taoism?"
Li Fuyao didn't show a surprised look, but the man in the green shirt looked at Li Fuyao unexpectedly.
Li Fuyao calmly said, "To be honest, I wanted to see this mountain and river a long time ago. I know that Da Zhou is very small, but the mountains and rivers are big, so I have long given birth to the wish to travel to the mountains and rivers, knowing you mountains and rivers. It's impossible for a monk to come to this Great Week, so he thought about going out of Great Zhou to see you, but the reason for not leaving in a hurry for these years is simple, it's just...saving money."
Speaking of the four characters for traveling through mountains and rivers, it is enough to have a mouth open, but going out requires a lot of silver.
The man in the green shirt didn't open his mouth in a hurry, but the little girl who hadn't opened his mouth chuckled and said, "Even if you save enough money, you can't go far."
The little girl didn't elaborate on why, nor did Li Fuyao ask.
The man in the green shirt is straight to the point, and he doesn't hide and tuck him, and he said the purpose of the trip.
Li Fuyao frowned, and asked softly: "Sir, I mean, a snake monster has arrived in Baiyu Town?"
The green shirt man slowly smiled, "A snake demon in the blue silk realm can't say how high the realm is, but how to look at it, it is not difficult to kill the people in such a small town."
Li Fuyao's face became a little difficult to look at. He was silent for a long time before he whispered: "There is an autumn rain that has been raining for a long time. Judging from the past these days, there shouldn't be such a rain. In addition, I think there are some other abnormalities, I really can't think of it."
The man in the green shirt nodded calmly and stopped asking questions. After all, it would be useless to talk about this matter with such an interesting boy, but looking at this boy, he wanted to talk to him about something else.
"What do you know about Shanhe?"
Li Fuyao stared at the man in the blue shirt, thinking for a long time, and then slowly said: "For example, this mountain and river has three religions, and the monks of the three religions are the actual masters of this mountain and river. He also knows that the territory of the Great Zhou is all within the territory of Yanling. , I also know that there is an academic palace in Yanling, which is under Confucianism, and Mr.... seems to be from that place."
The green shirt man smiled calmly: "I want to know why you know so much."
Li Fuyao laughed at himself, "The previous husband said that I was a local, but he was wrong. Actually, I am not a local."
"Mr. was born in Yanling Academy. Naturally, I know that every year there are many places in Yanling Academy. It's just that there are a lot of them. For those nobles in Luoyang City, they are still too few. After they knew that there would be a kid who would definitely take up that spot, they thought about how to grab that spot back, especially when they knew that the kid’s background was really not worth mentioning, so they gave birth to others. thought."
Li Fuyao smiled slowly: "Sir, just think about it, what would you do if it were you?"
The man in the green shirt shook his head. In fact, the academic palace does not know what the nobles in Luoyang City do each year. It's just that they have been indifferent for so many years. In addition to the intricacies of Luoyang City, there are also those every year. In fact, the children who are sent to the entrance hall are not much different in talents, so who actually enters the academy in the end is not really concerned. Just meeting one here is not a surprise.
"So you were sent to such a remote place, in order to be the place on your body."
The green shirt man looked at Li Fuyao calmly.
"They still haven't rushed to kill them all, but they are also afraid that I will appear in Luoyang City again. Although this incident is not a big deal, it will eventually involve face, so they sent me to such a remote place, hoping to be a few years old. Fend for itself."
Li Fu shook his head to look at the man in the green shirt, and said with a smile: "It's a pity that I'm still alive."
Looking at this small age, the man in the green shirt is different from ordinary people with a steady boy, and said in a cold voice: "So you saw me today, thinking about begging me to take you to the entrance palace and lead you into the road of cultivation. He wished for revenge."
Li Fuyao opened his hands, "It was accidental to see the husband, but now that I have met, the husband is not going to see it?"
What he said, take a look, naturally he wants the man in the green shirt to see if he has such a qualification for cultivation.
So he spread his hands.
The man in the green shirt frowned, and he admitted that the short story the boy had told before aroused his interest in him.
He was silent for a moment, and finally put his hand on Li Fuyao’s arm. After a while, it really seemed like something was walking in his meridians, especially on the arm, with a very obvious protrusion. Wander in the meridians.
...
...
There was a long silence.
The man in the green shirt whispered, "My name is Yanyu."
Then he immediately asked, "What is your name?"
"Li Fuyao."
"Would you like to go to the Academy with me?"
"No."
