Chapter 280 Baitiao in the waves shows his skills, the other side of the prison camp
I often love Tao Pengze, and his literary thoughts are so profound. I also blame Wei Jiangzhou, and his poetry is also leisurely. Now that I have climbed this building, I can understand it. The river is cold at the bottom, and the Kuangshan Mountain is green and leaning against the sky. Late at night, the moon is shining in Pupu, and the peak of Lufeng is smoked in Pingdan. .
Qinghui and spiritual energy, articles written by Sun and Sun. I have no two talented people, who is here? Because I am so good, I even made a sentence, and I am ashamed of the country.
This is the Xunyang Road, a famous building in Jiangnan, where Bai Juyi, a layman from Xiangshan of the Tang Dynasty, wrote the poem "Inscribed on Xunyang Tower" when he was demoted to the Sima of Jiangzhou for overstepping his duties. Later, it was nominated by the great writer Su Shi. , making it the most famous place in Jiangzhou and even the Jiangnan region.
In front of the door of Xunyang Tower, he wrote: There is no matchless wine in the world, and there are ten famous buildings in the world. When Dai Zong invited Xiao Tang and others to sit down in the Yagezi on the third floor by the river, Xiao Tang looked out and saw that : The carved eaves reflect the sun, and the painted buildings fly into the clouds. The green lanterns are connected to the windows, and the emerald curtains are hung high on the windowsills. To soothe the drunken eyes, lean against the blue sky and the thousands of clouds and mountains; to seduce the soul, turn over the auspicious snow and fill the river with mist. Baiping Ferry Every now and then I hear the fisherman singing his palm; every time I see the fisherman hitting his palm on the red polygonum beach. The green locust trees beside the building sing wild birds, and the green willows in front of the door are the flowers. Such a pleasant scene is so charming that it really lives up to the famous building here. 's reputation.
Dai Zong called the bartender and ordered all the vegetables, delicacies and seafood. After drinking, he ordered the bartender to get five bottles of Jiangzhou's most famous Yuhu Spring Wine. Because he admired Xiao Tang's reputation, Dai Zong spent a lot of money, so he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity. Chance and Xiao Tang fell in love with each other and became friends with the world-famous Xiao Renxia.
"Sift the wine in a big bowl! If you're impatient, use a small cup!" Sure enough, Li Kui, who was clamoring to follow, shouted: "Five bottles of wine are so helpful!? Bring a few more jars!"
Dai Zong grinned. This is a high-end entertainment place frequented by Jiangzhou literati. How can you make such a fuss about it? Although he didn't want Li Kui to come with him, he couldn't stand up to this ignorant fool. He only focused on making noise and lost face in front of Xiao Tang. But if you bring him here, this guy is indeed like this again.
Dai Zong glared at Li Kui and shouted in a low voice: "Brother, good village! Stop shouting, just eat and drink."
Xiao Tang glanced sideways at Li Kui, but still ordered the bartender: "Please give him a bigger bowl."
Li Kui also quietly took a look at Xiao Tang. Although he was a black whirlwind, he was reckless and straightforward, but his mind was sensitive and different from ordinary people. In the book, Lu Junyi shied away from the drinking party, and Li Kui wanted to "kowtow with his eyebrows and their lives" with him; see When Song Jiang went to Bianjing to have a private meeting with Master Li, he insisted that it was his brother Song Gongming, whom he had admired for many years and who knew everything about him, who raped a commoner girl. He was a man who "killed Yan Poxi and he was a small sample; he went to Tokyo to raise Master Li and he was a big man." The drunken man couldn't help but cut down the apricot-yellow flag embroidered with the four characters "Putting the Way for Heaven", and threatened to chop him up with Song Jiang Bi Ya (in Xiao Tang's view, this move was more than just an expression of expression) Li Kui’s fearless chivalrous spirit).
What's more, when Li Kui failed to reach Li Kui during several expeditions in Liangshan, he felt that he was being underestimated by his brothers on the mountain. He also wanted to "win with them" and went down the mountain privately. When Li Kui When Li Kui subconsciously sensed Xiao Tang's slight contempt for him, he also felt angry towards Xiao Tang. He just knew that Xiao Tang had saved his mother, so he couldn't do anything with him for a while, so he only cared about himself. He drank by himself, stuffing delicate delicacies into his mouth like a cow chewing peony, and kept eating and drinking till the juice dripped all over the table.
When Dai Zong saw this, he had no choice but to change the subject and talk to Xiao Tang about some anecdotes about the world, while the bartender sifted through the wine shop. After three drinks, Dai Zong said to Xiao Tang again: "Xiao Renxia, our Jiangzhou is a land of plenty. , why not have some spicy fish soup to sober up?”
Xiao Tang looked at Li Kui, the "black and white evil spirit" who introduced the plot of "black whirlwind and white stripes in the waves" in the original work. Zhang Shun and Zhang Shun were now sitting at the table, thinking to themselves, what kind of twists and turns could this cause? He Then he said: "That's fine."
Dai Zong turned his head and looked at the bartender, his face showing the majesty of a prison warden in Jiangzhou Prison Camp. He said to the bartender with a tigerish face: "I have distinguished guests to entertain, please bring some." When making spicy fish soup, you must use fresh and good fish! Don’t use some pickled fish to make up for it!”
The bartender knew that Dai Zong was an official in the government and a master who traveled around Jiangzhou, so he told the truth: "I don't dare to hide it from the dean. If you want any fresh fish, they have been sold out. I will wait until the owner of the fish teeth comes back." Only then can we get fresh fish and make good spicy fish soup."
Just when Li Kui was about to show off his ability, he stood up and said, "What's the point of hunting? I'll go and beg for a few! I'm sorry those fishermen don't dare to deny them. If they don't obey me, they'll smash their boats to pieces!"
"Why bother this elder brother?" At this time, Zhang Shun suddenly stood up and said, "Since elder brother Xiao wants to eat fresh and good fish, I can just catch a few."
Li Kui stared at Zhang Shun with eyes like bells. Among the people around Xiao Tang, Yan Qing even threw him twice and Li Kui was convinced. Besides, Yan Qing was easy-going and polite, and was smart in dealing with people. Li Kui's impression of him The best; and Shi Xiu's stern face, seeing how lukewarm towards him made Li Kui unhappy; and who is this pretty boy? Come to compete with grandpa for the limelight?
"What skills do you have to compete with me? In Jiangzhou, the fishermen must listen to me." Li Kui muttered again, as if he wanted to compete with Xiao Tang and Zhang Shun.
When Zhang Shun smiled and said nothing, Xiao Tang said to him: "I'll just trouble Brother Zhang Shun and go back."
When Li Kui saw Zhang Shun leaving, he ignored Dai Zong's stop and ran straight away. Dai Zong shook his head and sighed to Xiao Tang: "I made Xiao Renxia laugh. This iron bull has no dignity at all. He will kill me for humiliation." !”
Xiao Tang sighed slightly and said: "This Li Kui is a naughty person by nature. How can we teach him to change his behavior? He is also true."
Xiao Tang's comments about Li Kui are basically consistent with Song Jiang's, but their attitudes towards the black whirlwind are completely opposite...
When Li Kui and Zhang Shun came to the fishing boats lined up on the river, Li Kui was not polite and shouted: "Hey! You guys, please bring me two live fish on the boat!"
Several fishermen who were resting by the stern of the boat were startled by Li Kui's voice. An older fisherman looked at Li Kui. Annoyed by his rudeness, he replied coldly: "Master Yuya" Not here! Can’t open the cabin!”
Li Kui's eyes widened and he shouted: "What are you waiting for, Master Bird! What can I do with your two fishes!?"
Several fishermen looked at each other in disbelief. Seeing that Li Kui was a fool and unwilling to have any argument with him, they ignored him and went to rest. Li Kui was furious and was about to jump on the boat to fight people and steal fish, but was Zhang Just stop it.
"Brother Li, please be patient. It's just a few fresh fish. I'll just go and get them." Zhang Shun walked to the bow of the boat, bowed respectfully to a fisherman, and said, "I wonder if I can borrow a bamboo basket?" ?”
Seeing Zhang Shun's polite words, the fisherman agreed. While handing Zhang Shun a big bamboo basket for holding fish, he asked, "Does this guy want to go fishing? What's the use of just a bamboo basket?"
?”
Zhang Shun smiled slightly. He walked straight to the river and took off his clothes. He took off his clothes until he was completely naked, revealing his body, which was white as snow. He did not enter the water from the bamboo fence of the fishing boat that blocked the river for fishing, but plunged into the water.
Mengzi rushed directly into the river, and Zhang Shun immediately turned into a white stripe and swam on the Xunyang River. His compact body was like a big fish, scuttling in the blue water waves. Not only was he watching
Even Li Kui, the fisherman on the fishing boat, was dumbfounded.
After a while, the waves on the riverside suddenly rose, and Zhang Shun emerged from the water holding the struggling golden carp. He put the big carp, which weighed more than ten kilograms and was slippery, into the bamboo basket and returned.
He fled again and submerged into the river again... In a short time, Zhang caught five or six golden carps.
Under the bright sun, when Zhang Shun emerged from the sparkling Xunyang River for the last time, he raised thousands of crystal water drops. The resistance in the river could not stop his vigorous skills at all, and several fishermen's eyes flashed.
The flower jumped out of the water like a white fish that had been dormant in the river for thousands of years and had transformed into a human form in an instant.
Zhang Shun, who landed on the shore, pierced the big golden carp with wicker sticks and returned the bamboo basket to the fisherman. The fisherman raised his thumb and praised sincerely: "This little brother is so good at carrying it!
I have been fishing on the river for decades, but have I ever seen a fisherman as good as my brother? Even our fish tooth owner is not even half as good as my brother!"
Zhang Shun thanked the fisherman and was about to call Li Kui back to Xunyang Tower when he saw the big black man with his big mouth open and unable to close it for a long time. After a while, Li Kui said: "My dear, you white guy, why don't you
Is it really a monster transformed into a fish spirit?"
Seeing that Li Kui was so naive, Zhang Shun couldn't help but shake his head and said with a smile: "Brother Li, don't worry, I'm just a fairy in the water, but I won't harm anyone."
Li Kui knew that Zhang Shun was joking, so he couldn't help but snorted: "Are you afraid of you? If I were on the 6th, I wouldn't be afraid of you!"
Zhang Shun laughed and said: "Then I will just wait for Brother Li in the water."...
When Zhang Shun and Li Kui returned to Yageer on the third floor of Xunyang Building, Dai Zong, who witnessed Zhang Shun's ability to catch fish in the river from the window, couldn't help but praise: "Xiao Renxia is surrounded by countless talented people! Brother Zhang Shun is so good at water.
Come on, you really live up to the name of 'Langli Baitiao'!"
Zhang Shun said humbly: "What's the big deal about a small skill? If it's not enough, I'll catch some more."
Xiao Tang thought of the miserable situation that Song Jiang had suffered because of the delicious taste of the fresh fish. He ate so much that his intestines were twisted and his stomach hurt, and he had diarrhea for twenty consecutive years. He immediately waved his hand and said, "Don't be greedy for too much.
One or two tails are enough to make soup."
For three or four consecutive days, Xiao Tang and others and Dai Zong often drank in restaurants in Jiangzhou. However, Li Kui only settled in the prison, resting for two days in the east and resting in the west for a few days, sometimes calling for a meal.
Occasionally he would go to the gambling house to make money when he got some silver. Since Dai Zong was used to his temper, he had to let him go.
Seeing that Tang's father had been settled by Dai Zong, Xiao Tang and others were also preparing to go to Huangmen Mountain to argue with Ou Peng and others before heading north back to the capital. Seeing that Tang's father was in the prison camp and even exempted from the doctor's errand,
Except for taking names in the album, he was free to come and go at other times. It was very leisurely, and Xiao Tang felt relieved.
Under the guidance of Dai Zong, Xiao Tang saw the bright layout and elegant scenery of more than ten tile-roofed rooms in the prison camp except the residence where Tang's father lived. Xiao Tang said: "This prison camp in Jiangzhou doesn't seem to be called a match."
Where to go to be tortured?”
Dai Zong heard this and replied: "To be honest with Xiao Renxia, the troops placed here are all those who have been sued but have some people who have done their best and do not have to suffer like ordinary prisoners. Tang Gong lives here.
Xiao Renxia can naturally rest assured."
The gate of the prison camp is open, please don't come in if you have no reason or money... Thinking of the dark and bloody records about the prison city in the Water Margin and official history, Xiao Tang also knew very well that what Dai Zongdai saw was probably just
Just a corner of the prison camp.
After passing two more corridors, when Xiao Tang was about to leave the prison camp, he saw a gray wall standing on the right side not far away. Most of the small prisoners guarding there looked fierce and extremely evil.
He didn't look like a kind person. Xiao Tang smiled coldly, pointed over there and said, "I'm afraid the people there are all prisoners of the army who have no humane interests and filial piety, right?"
Dai Zong's expression suddenly became a little unnatural, and he said to Xiao Tang: "It's better not to look down upon Xiao Renxia, for fear that it will stain Xiao Renxia's eyes."
At this moment, a heart-rending scream was suddenly heard from the other end of the prison camp's partition wall.
