Sitting on a rugged rock blown by the mountain wind, Chai Tiannuo looked at the surging river water rolling against the current, and listened to the deafening sound. He couldn't help but laugh. What he wanted to do now was to swim upstream?
Cultivation is one thing, and passing on one's own principles to the world is another. If everyone in the world is of the same mind, even the laws of the great Tao will change accordingly!
After watching the tide until the moon set in the west, Chai Tinnuo returned to the inn to rest. The next day, when it was bright and clear, Chai Tinnuo climbed over the mountains again, and the gushing river he saw was completely different from what it was at night.
Last night the sea tide surged thousands of miles away, and the sound under the silver plate was like the sound of thousands of horses galloping and the heaven and earth were shaking. But now it is like a green jade belt, surrounding the gentle and peaceful mountains.
When we got down to the shore, we found that it was a large ferry. There were probably dozens of large and small boats docked here. I don't know where all these boats had hidden due to the huge surge last night.
There are many ships, naturally because there is a lot of work to do. There is a constant flow of countless mules, horses and porters carrying goods, loading goods onto the ships. There are ships leaving and coming, and the numbers are almost the same.
Chaitino looked along the shore, not looking at the half-submerged cargo ships weighed down by cargo, nor at the beautifully carved boats, but looking carefully for the clean and tidy shed boats.
At the inn, he heard that it only took three days to travel to the capital of Liangzhou by water. Chai Tiannuo was moved. He had nothing to do. Looking at the capital of Liangzhou, one of the nine states of the Shang Dynasty, it would be an eye-opener for a local leopard.
"Old boatman, are you going to the capital city of Fallen City?" A two-story shed boat was cleaned brilliantly. Although the tarpaulin was a bit old, it was clean. An old boatman with a gray beard was at the helm.
The big boat girl is cleaning.
Hearing someone shouting, the old boatman looked towards the shore and saw a gentle gentleman in white. He smiled and nodded: "Exactly, sir, it's a good time. I still have two seats on the boat. If I leave later, I will leave."
." Hearing this, Chai Tiannuo laughed. It's better to rush early than to catch it right. It's very, very good.
After boarding the boat, having a chat with the pretty boat girl who was only 28 years old, Chaitino walked up to the second floor with a smile.
The ship is not big, and it accommodates more than ten guests in total. There are only two guest rooms on the second floor, which are much cleaner than those on the lower floors, and the rooms are also much larger.
For the same two cents, Tiannuo gets the advantage of silver ingots. Although the official price of one or two ingots is a thousand and two cents, when it comes to actual exchange, a thousand and six cents is not much.
Before Chaitino could pack his luggage, he heard another price inquiry coming from the bottom of the boat. Then there was some noise. It turned out that other guests who had reserved rooms had arrived. It didn't take long for the boat to leave the ferry and go down the river.
The Fallen City is at that end.
The hull of the boat was slightly bumpy when leaving the shore, but when it entered the waterway, it was extremely smooth and there was no shaking at all.
Seeing that there was nothing going on, Chaitino went down to the first floor and sat on the high-rise bow of the ship, enjoying himself watching the waves slowly spreading in front of him.
"Sir, be careful, it could be serious if you get into the water!" The lady on the boat was diligent and came out with a wooden bucket to clean the mop. She was shocked when she saw half of Chaitino's legs dangling outside the boat.
"Nothing, nothing, a certain water quality is very good, and the people in the world gave him the nickname Langli Baitiao." Chai Tiannuo grinned and joked, and the boat girl laughed out loud: "Mr. Ben can talk nonsense, and there is not even a rust on his body."
, how good is the water performance?" After saying that, the boat girl came to Chai Tiannuo to have a look, and saw that he was quite familiar with him. He was sitting in a dent and could not easily slide out. Then she felt relieved and opened her mouth again:
"Even if you have nothing to do, don't stay too long. The river breeze may seem refreshing, but over time it will damage your bones and weaken your vitality."
"It's half an hour before dinner. Today, daddy caught a soft-shelled turtle weighing more than ten kilograms. You and the other guests are very lucky." The boat girl, who didn't know how to live, was talking while washing the mop, and it was pretty much the same.
After clearing up the family's fortune, Chaitino's smile never left his face. Such a clean-minded girl really makes people feel good about her.
After the boat girl left, Chaitino leaned against the bow of the boat and lifted it with his fingers, and a line of water floated up as if it was alive.
"... Such pure spiritual energy!" With a tap of his finger, the water lines spread out like flowers, and the breath hit his face, making people feel refreshed.
Looking at the layers of spiritual energy rising on the river as the boats passed by, Chai Tiannuo couldn't help but sigh, no wonder there are so many gods and monsters in this place. The spiritual energy is so strong, how can it be compared to the previous world where it was lacking.
The journey lasted three days and nights, and the price of one or two spindles was neither cheap nor expensive, but it was worth it for Chaitino.
The delicious fish porridge cooked by the boat girl and paired with the refreshing fish skin are worth it. After lunch, Chaitino picked up a book and wanted to go back to the bow to sit quietly, but unexpectedly a young couple
Already leaning there and gazing at each other, he turned around and walked to the stern of the boat, where it would be nice to have a quiet place on either side.
At this time, the river wind was getting stronger and the hard sails were blowing. The old boatman just sat there and steered, which really saved a lot of effort.
After the boat girl finished cleaning, she held a piece of clothing and leaned next to her father while sewing and chattering. Chaitino looked at the doting and helpless face of the old fisherman and just wanted to smile. His chatterbox was really enviable.
The boat sailed quickly with the favorable wind, and as the sun tilted towards the river, mist gradually began to appear on the river. Chai Tiannuo and his teacher discovered an interesting sight during their leisure time.
A big herring nearly ten feet long and several other fish of different sizes were chasing the shed boat through the waves and playing, jumping up from time to time to take a bite of the jumping shrimps and small fish, which was quite interesting to watch.
Seeing that the fish were full of energy, Chaitino became interested. He took out the snacks bought on the road from his arms and fed them. When the sky turned dark and the shed boat docked at the shore, the fish were already familiar with each other and would not leave no matter what.
Stern.
"It's really gone. Look, it's completely clean!" Chaitino helplessly opened the snack box and looked at the fish. He went back to the guest room and took three snacks. Now there is really nothing left!
The old boatman and the boat girl laughed when they saw it. They pointed at the fish in the water and said: "These are all scoundrels in the Yongjiang River. They are greedy. Sir, feeding them has aroused their greed. Most of them will not leave my house this way."
It’s a shed.”
"Scoundrels in the Yangtze River?" Chai Tiannuo couldn't help but raise his eyebrows after hearing this. Why did he say this with a feeling of pampering?
"Well, they are all spiritual water tribes. Daqing has saved many people. The old boat owners all say that Daqing and the others are subordinates of the Yongjiang Dragon King, so they can be considered gods." Boat Girl
He nodded and said with a smile, and threw the vegetable leaves he had just picked into the water. The big herring vomited after taking one bite. It was obvious that he was fed by Chaitino and was naughty. The other fish swarmed up and ate it in twos and twos.
's clean.
Seeing that it was getting late, the old boatman lit a lantern and washed vegetables with his daughter for dinner. The three scholars who were traveling with him were a little bored, so they prepared to hook some fish under the stern of the boat to satisfy their cravings.
The fish porridge at noon was really fresh and sweet, but even though it was already evening, there seemed to be an aftertaste in my mouth.
