"Squeak~"
Song You pushed open his room.
This room is very big. As soon as I walked in, I knew that the bedding had just been taken out of the cupboard. There should be very few people staying in Jiao Temple. The bedding had been left in the cupboard for a long time and had been stained with the smell of the cupboard. As soon as I took it out, I shook it. The stool was scattered in the room. It smelled like wood, but it wasn't bad at all.
"ah……"
Song You breathed a sigh of relief and lay down on the bed.
The feeling of lying in bed is completely different.
But as soon as he lay down, before he could feel it clearly, he felt the calico cat tugging at his trousers, and he noticed it, so he stood up again, picked her up, and wiped the soles of her feet.
This process is actually very enjoyable.
Song You asked while wiping: "Did Sanhua Empress get spotted by that heroine during the day?"
"She has already seen it."
The calico cat lies down obediently and has a clear voice.
"How did you get it?"
"Ms. Sanhua doesn't know."
"Then how does Sanhua Empress know that she has noticed it a long time ago?"
"Because she keeps talking to Empress Sanhua."
"That's it..."
Song You couldn't help but laugh.
It seems that this cat still doesn't understand people well enough. In fact, talking to cats is a normal thing for people.
The calico cat turned its head and stared at him doubtfully:
"Didn't she see it?"
"You can probably tell."
"Why?"
"Because Empress Sanhua feels the same way."
"right."
"alright……"
The calico cat turned over, ran onto the bed, fell down on the spot, and rolled around naturally.
Then he lay down again and asked the Taoist priest:
"Can we talk here?"
"Can."
"Can I go mouse hunting?"
"It's okay." Song You paused, "But Sanhua Empress is not an ordinary cat after all, and she has already transformed. You still have to be careful not to go into a locked or closed house. There are some places where we can do whatever we want. It’s rude to go in.”
"The rats are in those houses."
"Then there's nothing we can do."
While Song You was talking, he had already lied down again.
This room is quite large. It is at the back of the Taoist temple. If someone knocks on the door, he will not be disturbed. It is also next to a bamboo forest, where you can hear the sound of the bamboo forest blowing in the wind. Song You likes this artistic conception.
In addition to the best guest rooms, the food and drink are also unambiguous. Even the bay red horse is benefited from this and eats only high-quality semi-hay.
So one person and one cat lived here.
It was late January, and there were still a few days before the Liujiang Conference on February 2nd.
In addition to having meals together, the visitors of Zhongjiao Temple often invite him to drink tea and chat about Anqing County and Lingquan County, or personally take him out to watch Anqing's mountains and rivers, chase the sea of clouds, and chase the sunset. The visitor has lived in Anqing County for decades, and no one knows better than him where the good scenery is and where the best viewing spots are.
Traveling around is also a form of spiritual practice.
…
February 2, Horseshoe Mountain.
Today is a rainy day.
Song You held up a khaki oil-paper umbrella and took the calico cat to Horseshoe Mountain.
Anqing is really a city of mountains and rivers.
However, most of the mountains in Anqing are hills, one after another, small and steep. The steepest one is like a stone pillar stuck in the ground, and even has an overturned mountain, so most of them cannot climb up.
But there are mountains that can be climbed.
Horseshoe Mountain is the largest mountain outside Anqing City.
The scenery here is also very good, but the temple owner asked him if he wanted to come here a few days ago, but he didn't come.
Waiting to see it again today.
The smoke is hazy today and has a unique flavor.
The location of the Liujiang Conference is not on the Horseshoe Mountain, but at the foot of the Horseshoe Mountain. There is a large open space at the foot of the mountain. It is very large and connects directly to the foot of the mountain and the riverside. It is paved with bluestone slabs and is called Yanxiantai.
When Song You arrived, his first feeling was——
There are many people, many.
Most of them are Jianghu people, and they are easy to distinguish.
Most people in Jianghu do not have umbrellas.
In addition, there are some businessmen, including people from prominent families, playful yamen in the state, even government spies, and ordinary people in Anqing County.
Some of these people held umbrellas to make Song You look like he was no stranger.
There are probably tens of thousands of Jianghu people alone.
What is the concept of tens of thousands of people?
In later generations, if a university held a school meeting and everyone could be summoned, there would be tens of thousands of people.
But this time is no better than later generations.
Due to the implementation of people's livelihood policies and the introduction of high-quality foreign rice seeds, Dayan has a population of nearly 200 million and a total of 1,800 counties. Each county has about 100,000 people. Anqing is remote and may not have 100,000 people. And this is the population of the entire county. The vast majority of people do not live in the county. In Anqing County alone, there may only be more than 10,000 permanent residents.
No wonder there is no accommodation in the city.
Song You shook his head and wanted to squeeze in to take a look, but he felt that the space was probably occupied by those well-known Jianghu forces. When he was struggling, he inadvertently raised his eyes and glanced -
There is a small pavilion on the mountainside.
After searching for a while, I saw a path that looked like a thin gray line falling on the mountain from a distance, with the pavilion at the end.
So he walked in that direction.
Along the way, there was no one else walking with me.
Maybe the Jianghu people felt that the pavilion was too far away. The weather was hazy today and it was difficult to see clearly on the mountain. It was better to squeeze in. When someone started to tidy up the order, everyone would naturally have a place to watch.
Song You didn't understand martial arts, so he couldn't see much of it even if he got closer. Maybe it would be better to see it more vaguely.
Going all the way up, it didn't take long to reach the pavilion.
From a high position, you can have a panoramic view of the entire Yanxiantai, and naturally you can also see the mountains and rivers in the distance.
Song You was shocked for a moment.
Not Yanxiantai, nor the people on Yanxiantai, but the mountains and rivers in the distance.
Today it is drizzling, the water and ground are smoky, and the sun cannot shine in, so the mountains and water have turned into gray and black like ink, but the shades are different. Looking from a distance, the willow branches on the riverside are as thin as silk, and they are blown in one direction. A small boat is sailing quietly on the river. No matter the distance or the top of the mountain is blurry, it is difficult to distinguish between clouds, smoke or mist and rain. The people underneath turned into small black dots one by one, and everything was hazy, as if falling into a world of fog.
This is definitely not the scenery that can be seen in Yin Yang Mountain.
Even in the previous life, it was extremely difficult to see such beautiful scenery.
"Snapped……"
Song You closed the umbrella and put it aside. Seeing that the pavilion was clean, he simply sat cross-legged on the ground and stared straight ahead, letting the calico cat yawn beside him.
Before we knew it, the Liujiang Conference had begun.
It starts with this ink landscape painting.
Song You paid some attention to Xia Yanxiantai.
To be precise, there is no precise time for the Liujiang Conference to start. When the Jianghu people arrived, started talking and drinking, the conference had already begun. Today is the time for the martial arts competition to begin at the conference.
Jianghu people pay attention to martial arts after all.
Lots of money, little money, but only one head.
If your martial arts skills are low, you will inevitably be looked down upon and bullied. He is highly skilled in martial arts, and when he meets someone in the world in the future, everyone will give up a little more face and save some effort in fighting.
It didn't take long for someone to discuss it below.
Song You was surprised to find that the view here was not as blurry as he imagined, nor was it that far away. It was quite clear.
At this time, the two people competing below, one was holding a spear and the other was holding a rapier.
One person is wearing a bamboo hat and the other person is wearing a raincoat.
The drizzle blurred his vision and dampened the sound. Song You couldn't hear the clang of the clash of guns and swords, and the voices of the people coming over him became blurry. I saw a yin-yang fish picture in the middle of Yanxiantai. The two people competed on the yin-yang fish picture, their body movements flashed and moved, and they each tried and tested their moves.
The tension of the fight seemed to be diluted by the drizzle.
Or maybe it was because he had seen too many landscapes before, and he still hadn't recovered from his emotions at this time. In short, in Song You's eyes, the two of them seemed to be dancing. Each sword and spear should be sprayed with rainwater, and in the blink of an eye, there should be water droplets falling in a circle, like a person holding an umbrella, turning the umbrella around, and the raindrops are like a curtain of beads.
Even the swallow flying in the rain should have a few drops of rain falling on its feathers.
This is an ink painting made of rain and mist.
Song You also saw Wu Nuxia.
This heroine sat with her classmates, a good seat in the front row, and she watched it with gusto.
During this period, she stretched her neck from time to time and looked around the onlookers, as if she was looking for someone, maybe she was looking for him, but he was in the pavilion halfway up the mountain, and she obviously couldn't find him.
Soon, the competition was over.
The two knights seemed to be like brothers, and they seemed to have known each other for a long time. Up to the last point, there was no winner.
Maybe they already have victory or defeat in their minds.
Maybe it’s also in the hearts of the surrounding onlookers.
In short, Song You didn't have it in his heart.
And he didn't care. What he came to see was not the victory or defeat, nor the competition, nor the fun.
It’s just this human feast.
From morning to afternoon, I don’t know how many fights there were, with eighteen kinds of weapons including swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks, whips, maces, hammers, sticks, and meteor hammers. Many knights are either clicking to the end or staining the scroll with blood, or they are moving gracefully or swiftly and vigorously, which is eye-opening for people to watch.
During this period, disciples from the Xishan Sect also appeared.
As expected, the Xishan faction was no longer what the heroine had boasted about. Not only did they play beautifully, they often won, and even sometimes when they got on the court, the people around them looked around and didn't want to go on stage to challenge.
In this way, no matter the victory or defeat, in the hearts of Jianghu people, the Xishan Sect should be more capable.
Before I knew it, it was dusk.
The sky is getting darker, so the ink becomes a bit heavier.
The people below gradually dispersed.
Song You was still not finished, so he left the pavilion, opened his umbrella again, and walked down the mountain.
Just arrived at the foot of the mountain, before leaving the Yanxiantai, I saw swallows flying in the distance in the sky, sometimes left and sometimes right, up and down, light and vigorous. In the rain and fog, they were just a little bit of freedom in this landscape.
Song You smiled and was about to leave when he was suddenly startled.
He narrowed his eyes and looked up at the sky again.
It was only early February, barely considered early spring. Swallows fly to the south in winter, and most of them have to fly tens of thousands of miles. Are they coming back so early to spend the winter?
I was vaguely aware of it, so I turned around and took a look——
In the misty rain, Horseshoe Mountain remains the same.
But where is the pavilion?
Where did the mountain road come from?
