Chapter 605: It’s the first time, it’s the revisit
The Taoist walked ahead with a stick and climbed another high mountain.
The girl dressed in three-color clothes held a sugar cane that was about the same height as herself and used it as a crutch. She followed the Taoist, chirping and looking into the distance with him.
"Are you in Marsh County?"
The Taoist's voice came from in front of me.
"Bah, bah, bah..."
The girl had no time in her mouth and did not answer.
"Miss Sanhua has been eating sugar cane for several days. If she eats too much, her mouth will rot."
When the girl heard this, she just turned her head——
"Pooh……"
Spit out the bagasse, continue to put the sugarcane into your mouth, take a bite and keep chewing.
"Miss Sanhua will gain weight if you eat like this."
"Bah chi bah chi..."
"You may not be able to buy sugar cane anywhere ahead, so you'd better save some."
"Pooh……"
"..."
The Taoist shook his head and continued to move forward.
There are large tracts of flat land in the mountains, and there are many houses scattered there. The sky is sunny on the one hand, but what is rare is that the sky is full of cumulus clouds. The clouds cast shadows, and the gaps in the clouds shed sunlight. The light and clouds are in this flat land and
The mountains are sprinkled with spots, which change and flow with the wind.
The Taoist and the Taoist walked along the mountain road, often bathed in the sun, and often shrouded in shadows. Sometimes the shadows were still walking quickly on the ground. The Queen of Sanhua was often stunned for a moment, and then she raised her head to look at the clouds in the sky while holding the sugar cane.
, shook his head, then walked and ate again, keeping up with the Taoist in front.
There are houses and tea stalls beside the road.
Song You chose a place with a beautiful scenery. It was surrounded by pastoral cottages and was all golden. He thought it would be nice to sit here and bask in the sun, rest and drink tea, so he walked in.
"Want a bowl of tea."
"okay!"
"Is there anything to eat?"
"Roasted bait cubes and roasted milk fans."
"What is it?"
"One is made of rice and the other is made of milk."
"Let's all have a taste."
"okay!"
The store owner suddenly smiled brighter.
Song You went out to unload the horse's luggage again, and asked at the same time: "May I ask the store owner how far is Xian Ning?"
"This is Xianning, but we are on the edge here. If you go to the county seat, follow the road on the right, and you will be there about thirty miles away."
"Thank you."
There was another group of people at the tea stall.
It looked like they were dressed as businessmen. The horses, mules and goods were outside under the shade of the trees. Maybe it was too sunny, so they were drinking tea here. Some people were lying on the table, taking a nap. When they heard the Taoist's voice, they couldn't help but look at him.
When he looked up and saw that it was a Taoist priest, someone started chatting and asked curiously:
"Where are you from, sir?"
"Yizhou people."
Song You replied while unloading his luggage.
The girl followed him holding sugar cane.
“What does defibrination do?”
"A wandering Taoist travels everywhere and always goes wherever the scenery is good."
“It’s so comfortable.”
"Where are you guys?"
"We are miserable people. We have been traveling on this road for many years, doing reselling business. How can I be comfortable as a gentleman?"
"Those people come and go to Xian Ning often?" Song You came back and sat down and asked.
"yes."
"I heard that there is a strange thing in Xianning. There are often people who don't know where they come from. They claim to live here. The scenery is the same, but they don't know the locals, and no one knows them. They don't know where they are.
Is this true or false?" Song You continued to ask.
"There are indeed many strange things in Xian Ning. The one you mentioned is a relatively distant one. When the county officials heard about it, they all went to confirm it for themselves. It is indeed true."
"What about those people?"
"Of course they stayed in Xianning. Many of them are still alive. People often hear about this legend and are curious and go to them to ask. They all answer." The businessman yawned and said to him, "The latest time it suddenly appeared.
Here comes a woman. The woman was very frightened after arriving in Xianning. Fortunately, a kind person reported her to the government. After arriving at the government, the government had already experienced this kind of thing. Knowing that she was probably the same as those before, she suddenly didn't know.
Wherever it comes from, it is settled."
The businessman's tone was casual, as if he was telling the truth.
"This woman later got married to someone in the city. She got married quite well. People call her Xiao Chai Niang. If you don't believe me, sir, you can go to the city to look for her. Just ask Xiao Chai Niang where she lives, and everyone will know."
"Xiao Chai Niang..."
"Exactly!"
"How long ago was that?"
"Maybe seven or eight years ago?"
"There is such a strange thing..."
Song You's eyes flashed and he murmured to himself.
"Hahaha……"
The merchant laughed loudly and even woke up his companions. He muttered something to him, but he ignored him and said to Song You with a smile: "Actually, we are not from Mao County. We come here to do business. In the end,
When I first heard about such strange things, I was surprised. I wondered where those people came from. Is it possible that there are other worlds besides ours? Whenever outsiders come and hear such things,
They were all surprised, especially many literati and officials, who wanted to look for and ask questions. Some people had no place to stay and no idea how to make a living after they emerged, but they only needed to rely on these literati and officials who came to look for them to ask them.
After listening to their stories about things in my hometown, I gave them some rewards and gifts, and I was able to eat. But the more we heard about it, the more we got used to it."
"I'm determined to go look for it."
"I have seen that little Chai Niang before. Because she was very pretty, she married a gentleman from a famous cloth shop in the city as his concubine. The husband liked her quite a lot and it is said that she had an heir..."
The stall owner first served Song You a bowl of tea.
Unfortunately, it was freshly brewed and not herbal tea.
The Taoist held the tea and waited for it to cool while talking to the businessman. The girl sat next to him, with her right leg stretched straight, her left leg resting on her right leg, holding the sugar cane and chewing it with concentration, especially in this posture.
You can lean slightly on the Taoist priest and still get some sunshine. Every time you take a bite, your eyes will slightly narrow, and you seem to be extremely happy and satisfied.
She threw the bagasse far away.
The roasted bait cubes and roasted milk fans also arrived quickly.
The bait cubes are made of rice, like pancakes, slightly burnt, and coated with sauce, so they are salty. The milk fans are made of milk, eggs, flour, etc., and are coated with brown sugar, which is sweet.
of.
Song You ate slowly, and after it cooled down, he broke off a piece and handed it to his children.
"Sir, you are very interested in this matter!"
"Indeed, in the many years since we have traveled around the world, we have seen many fairies and ghosts and heard many stories about ghosts and gods, but we rarely hear about such strange things." Song You replied, "You must try it before you go."
What does this bait cake and milk fan smell like?"
"Sir, please eat it yourself. We have eaten it before, and we are not used to it. But the rice noodles from Numa County are quite good."
"That's fine..."
"Speaking of which, there is another more interesting thing..."
"What? Can I tell you next?"
"It's just chatting, what can't we say?" The businessman was quite generous and said to him, "I heard from people who suddenly appeared in the past that where they lived, people occasionally came in and people disappeared inexplicably.
