As soon as he reached the ground, Li Bai looked around and saw that he was at the bottom of the valley. With luck, he found that he was not injured. When he looked at Sima Heng and Wu Guanzhi again, he saw that they were both fine, so he felt relieved a little.
At this time, Wu Guanzhi said: "Li Bai, Sima Heng, Guan Xin and others will definitely come down to the bottom of the valley if they want to refine us. We have to leave here quickly."
"You are right, Brother Wu, Brother Sima, without further ado, we will leave Wanshan immediately."
After that, Li Bai led the two of them to find a trail at the bottom of the valley, and then ran along the trail. After running for half an hour, they finally left Wanshan Mountain. Then the three of them went directly to Qianshan Pier without stopping.
"Li Bai, where are we going?" Sima Heng asked.
"No matter what, let's wait until we get out of here. Anyway, we're just traveling wherever we go!"
However, it was noon, there were few boats on the pier, and most of the customers were already there, so the three of them searched to no avail.
While he was hesitating and distressed, Wu Zhizhi suddenly exclaimed: "Oh no, they are catching up!"
Li Bai quickly looked up and saw a few people in the distance running towards the dock. It was Longchi Sijian and Guan Xin. He only heard them shouting as they ran: "Haha, let's see where you can run this time."
!”
It turns out that when the Four Swordsmen of Longchi saw Guan Xin knocking down Li Bai and the others in Xuan Ya, they immediately went down to Xuan Ya to find the bodies for making elixirs. However, they could not find them when they arrived at Xuan Ya. Knowing that Li Bai and the others had escaped, they calculated that the three of them had escaped.
He would definitely leave Qianshan County by water, so he immediately chased him to the dock. Unexpectedly, he guessed it right.
Seeing that they had been discovered, Li Bai and the others became anxious and looked around. Suddenly they saw a small boat slowly leaving the pier. So the three of them didn't think anything of it. They caught up with them in a few quick steps and jumped on the boat with a single leap.
When the boatman saw several strangers jumping on his boat, he was frightened and said, "Who are you and what do you want to do by jumping on my boat?"
"Boatman, don't panic, we were being chased by thieves and had no choice but to escape!"
"Pursuit!" The boatman became even more panicked upon hearing this, "Then don't even get on my boat, I'm afraid the people who are chasing you will kill me too!"
"Don't be afraid, haven't we already left the dock? They can't catch up!"
"It doesn't matter if you can't catch up. I'm a local boatman. What if I send you away and they come back to trouble me? You'd better get off the boat! Besides, my boat has been chartered by a guest, so don't hurt my guests.
ah!"
"Guest?" Several people couldn't help but look into the canopy of the boat, and saw a middle-aged man sitting alone in it. They saw this man dressed in white, with a blue ribbon tied in his bun hair, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and an extraordinary aura.
Li Bai stepped forward and said, "Brother, we are being hunted by thieves. Is it possible for us to stay on the ship to avoid the trouble?"
The man looked at Li Bai and the other three, smiled and asked, "Haha, can you write poetry?"
When Li Bai and the other three heard this, they really suspected that they had heard it wrong. What kind of question was this? Is there something wrong with this person's brain?
But the current situation is critical, and if there are problems, there are problems, so Li Bai replied: "Yes, of course I can, and the writing is good!"
When the man heard this, he burst out laughing and said, "Okay, I'm confident enough. I'm worried about having no one to accompany me on this trip, so you, a person who can write good poems, are here. Okay, let's go together together!"
After that, the man took out a Kaiyuan Tongbao from his baggage, handed it to the boatman and said: "Shipman, this is their shipping fee, just accept it and sail."
When the boatman saw the Guiyuan Kaiyuan Tongbao, his eyes suddenly shone, and when he saw that the guests had agreed to go with these people, and that the ship had already left the dock more than ten feet away, he gritted his teeth, accepted the Kaiyuan Tongbao, and raised the sail.
Speed up and paddle away.
Seeing the boatman sailing away, Li Bai and the other three were relieved. Looking towards the dock again, they saw Si Jian and Guan Xin of Longchi gesticulating and getting angry.
Several people looked at each other and laughed.
After a while, a few people got into the canopy of the boat and made a speech to the guest to express their gratitude for the convenience.
Li Bai said: "Li Bai, I have two friends, Wu Guanzhi and Sima Heng. I don't know how to call them?"
The man smiled, took out a jug of wine and several small glasses from the cabin, placed them on the small table in the cabin, poured four glasses of wine, and then made an "invite" gesture to the three of them and said
: "Wang Zhihuan."
"It turns out to be Brother Wang. I'm being disrespectful." After saying that, Li Bai and the other three were not polite. They all sat down in front of the small table, picked up the wine glasses, and drank down the wine in one gulp.
When Wang Zhihuan saw this, he smiled slightly, poured them another drink, and said, "Come on, Li Bai, why are you being hunted down?"
"The common man is not guilty, but the jade is guilty. Not long ago, we realized the heavenly skills, and were worried by several evil sect thieves, so we were hunted down all the way!"
"That's it. It's a pity that I have withdrawn from the world. I only ask about poetry and not about the world. Otherwise, I can still help you avoid this disaster!"
"Quiting from the world? How free and easy this is! If I had not already set my ambition, I would also like to practice Taoism in peace and travel around the world."
"By the way, Brother Wang, where is your destination for this trip?" Wu Zhizhi suddenly interrupted and asked.
"Dongting."
"Dongting? A wonderful place. I went there three years ago. It has beautiful mountains and rivers. It is a wonderland!" Wu Zhizhi recalled with a nostalgic look on his face.
"If there is such a place, then we really want to travel there!" Sima Heng said.
"Yes, let's disembark in Dongting with Brother Wang! I wonder if Brother Wang is willing to travel to Dongting with us?" Li Bai said.
Wang Zhihuan smiled and said: "You can get off the boat, but you don't have to travel with me. I'm used to traveling freely alone!"
When the three of them heard this, they didn't feel like saying anything else, so they changed the subject and continued drinking.
A few people were drinking and chatting, and an hour passed unknowingly.
The boat has arrived at Tianmen Mountain.
Tianmen Mountain is located on both sides of the Yangtze River. It is named because Bowang Mountain and Xiliang Mountain face each other across the river, like a natural portal.
Wang Zhihuan looked at the two majestic mountains outside the boat and suddenly said to Li Bai: "Li Bai, you just said that you have written poems, and they are not vulgar. Can you write one now? How about taking Tianmen Mountain in the distance as the title?"
"Okay!" Li Bai drank the wine in one gulp, walked out of the boat, stood on the bow, and looked at Tianmen Mountain in the distance. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly became enlightened and chanted loudly:
(looking at Tianmen Mountain)
Tianmen interrupts the opening of Chujiang River,
The clear water flows eastwards and returns here.
The green mountains on both sides of the strait face each other,
The lone sail comes with a piece of sunshine.
"What a poem!" Wang Zhihuan shouted as soon as Li Bai finished reciting, "Li Bai, you have brought the majesty of Tianmen Mountain and Water to life. It is indeed a good poem. At this moment, it reminds me of the time when I climbed the stork
How about I recite a piece of writing that Lou Shi once wrote and you guys can give me some comments?"
"What an honor!" everyone said in unison.
Wang Zhihuan took a sip of wine and began to chant:
(Climb the Stork Tower)
The sun sets over the mountains,
The Yellow River flows into the sea.
If you want to see a thousand miles away,
Take it to the next level.
"Okay!" This time it was Li Bai's turn to shout, "Brother Wang's courage, in just a few sentences, he fully revealed the majesty and magnificence of the mountains and rivers I'm facing. What a poem!"
"That's right, Brother Wang's poem is so catchy that we, the rough guys, also think its artistic conception is profound and wonderful." Sima Heng interjected.
"Brother Wang, since we are discussing poetry, why don't you come up with another one? It will help us enjoy our literary talents!" After Wu Zhizhi finished speaking, he took the wine pot and poured wine for everyone.
"Yes, we should play another song!"
"Okay! I wrote a poem before, and now I'm showing off my shame." Wang Zhihuan felt heroic and began to recite again:
(Liangzhou Ci)
Far above the Yellow River among the white clouds,
An isolated city in Wanren Mountain.
Why should the Qiang flute blame the willow?
The spring breeze does not pass through Yumen Pass.
"Okay!" As soon as the poem was recited, everyone cheered in unison!
Just when Li Bai was about to express his appreciation, he suddenly saw a wooden boat approaching quickly in the distance. There were five people standing on the bow of the boat. They were Longchi Sijian and Guan Xin.
"Why are these thieves still alive?" Li Bai shook his head, drew his sword out of its sheath, and prepared to fight again.
When Wu Guanzhi saw Sima Heng, he immediately stood on the bow of the ship, ready to fight.
Seeing this situation, Wang Zhihuan smiled and said to Li Bai: "Li Bai, don't be nervous, you will be fine on my boat."
When Li Bai heard this, he thought that Wang Zhihuan was crazier than me. Could he be some kind of peerless master? He said, "Brother Wang, this matter started with us, but we must not involve you."
"Haha, it's not a big deal, it's just a little effort!"
Just as he was talking, Guan Xin's ship had already arrived in front of them.
Guan Xin smiled evilly, "Li Bai, Sima Heng, Wu Zhizhi, this river is so vast, I don't know where else you can go?"
"If you don't go anywhere, let's have a fight when you come. What nonsense!" Sima Heng shouted loudly.
"Okay, let's have a fight!" After Guan Xin said that, he jumped onto Li Bai's boat.
But before he jumped onto the boat, he suddenly felt a powerful air wave rising from the boat and heading straight towards him. Guan Xin was startled, but it was too late to escape, and he was immediately blown away by the air wave.
