"this……"
Song You looked forward and asked aloud: "But is this Yuezhou Dragon that I'm looking for?"
"Nowadays, there is almost only one type of dragon remaining in Dayan, and it obviously looks different from it. Except for the one in Yuezhou, I am afraid there is no such big dragon in the world." A gentle and steady voice came from the Taoist's side. The voice was not loud, "But it is not Wan Jiang's old friend. The Taoist Master can also see that it has never seen me, and I have never seen it."
"Although we once lived in the same Yuezhou as the Yuezhou Mao tribe, and we were also descended from the ancient demons, we are not close, and we don't actually have much contact with each other." The maid said from behind the woman, fearing that the boatman would hear her, so she also suppressed her voice. De is particularly low, "Among the existing great demons of the Tai clan, we only know one, and the rest are all strangers."
The maid laughed again after saying this: "But judging from the way this giant cat behaves, it must be from the Yuezhou branch. It is violent but not cruel, stupid but not reckless, indifferent but not bloodthirsty. The reason is probably those The ferocious, reckless, cold and bloodthirsty giants all died halfway and were not passed down."
"It sounds like there are quite a lot of great monsters in the Yuezhou Miao tribe?"
"Although the world is now a humane one, the Ma clan can be traced back to ancient times after all." Miss Wanjiang said calmly, "There is still some heritage."
"In addition to the crazy White Ox King, don't the White Rhino clan also have other great monsters?" the maid added, "Now those who have been designated by the Heavenly Palace will be killed."
"It seems that our clan is the most destitute."
"It's all a matter of time. They just have to hold on a little longer. The way of heaven has changed. No matter how deep your foundation is, it can't help but wear away."
"Are you two trying to comfort yourself?"
"..."
"..."
Song You was satisfied in his heart, but his face was calm. He retracted his gaze, continued to look forward, and whispered: "Did the Yuezhou Ma clan appear here to join the national master?"
"I don't know if he defected to the imperial master." Miss Wan Jiang said, "But based on Wan Jiang's guess, that's probably the case."
"The coming of the Underworld is a general trend. It is not much different from the time when the Heavenly Palace gathered together. There is a great opportunity. Now in the world of humanity, the Heavenly Palace is watching overhead. No matter how reckless the Tai people are, they will never think of relying on brute force to survive. What are you robbing during this process?" The maid said with a smile, "It's just how the Imperial Master can negotiate with them, then you have to ask the Imperial Master."
"Are you two also coming to Yeshan to seek great opportunities?"
"I told the Taoist Priest that we were passing by to see the princess in Yangzhou and wanted to visit an old friend." This time the maid spoke first, "We have been together for more than ten years, why does the Taoist still not believe us?"
"The habits of the Mao tribe are different from those of foxes. For the Mao tribe, they cannot be gods in the sky, so sitting in the underworld is not bad. They can stay in one place motionless for many years." The woman said, "But to the foxes, the underworld is like Prison, so please rest assured, Taoist Priest, Wan Jiang has just walked out of a ten-year prison, how could he enter another longer prison?"
After speaking, she turned to the Taoist and gave a salute:
"This statement is absolutely true."
"Since I'm looking for an old friend, and I've just met an old friend and the same clan, why don't you say hello?" Song You asked.
"Wan Jiang also wants to walk a little further with the Taoist priest, at least as far as the county seat."
"What's more, this giant cat was so rude that it angered the Taoist priest. We don't know if the Taoist priest will fight with it, or maybe it will be chopped up..." The maid still smiled playfully, "Why is this so good? When is the time to jump out and recognize old friends? What if it doesn’t turn out to be a good show? "
"..."
Song You stopped talking, feeling that it was of little significance.
An ancient ferry was seen ahead.
The bluestone that forms the steps on the shore has turned dark green and turned black, but it is half broken. The cracks in the bluestone that are exposed are still relatively new, and it seems that they were broken not long ago.
"Why is this ferry broken?"
"The villain...the villain doesn't know either."
"Does the boatman know when it broke?"
"It's been about three or two months, right?" The boatman had great respect for this Taoist who dared to stop the water dragon. Although he didn't know what his abilities were, he also knew that he must be a great practitioner, so he answered truthfully, "It's just that he is very busy on weekdays." I rarely receive guests here, so I don’t know when it will be.”
"Thank you boatman."
"This is Zijun Ferry."
"Please ask the boatman to dock, and we will disembark here." Song You said, "By the way, if you want to leave from here, how long will it take to meet a boat?"
"Oh, then I don't dare to give guarantees to the guests." The boatman immediately looked embarrassed, "There are sometimes more and sometimes fewer boats on this river, and it depends on the season. There are also some boatmen who are diligent and lazy, and some of the guests they pick up also leave. Those who travel far or near all follow the guests, and there is no fixed method to pick them up wherever they go. But generally speaking, you will definitely encounter a ship in two or three days at most. The guest officer is standing here, running the ship. Whenever there is room, I will come over and ask."
After saying this, he felt embarrassed again, hesitating in his heart, and then asked: "Could you be a god, sir?"
"Just a Taoist."
"That must be a real person from some famous mountain!" The boatman said and paused. "When will the real person leave? If there is no real person today, I am afraid that he will be overturned by the water dragon and fall into the river. I will not count him as a villain." I'll still come here to pick up the real person as time goes by, if it's not long, I can just stay here for a few days, as a way of repaying the real person for saving my life."
"If the boat is overturned by that dragon, I will get wet all over. What's more, the boatman must know the nature of water to make a living on the water, so it can't be called a life-saving grace." Song You said and smiled at him, "Besides, I don't I don’t know when I will return, and I don’t know if I will return along the same route. Even if I return, it will be many days later. I just asked in passing. The boatman’s intentions, whether good or grateful, are all It has been received, and the matter is settled, and will not delay the boatman's making money."
The boatman heard this and immediately raised his hand:
"The real person must be a god!"
As soon as he finished raising his hand, he quickly retracted it and continued rowing, controlling the boat to dock.
"Please ask the real person to walk slowly!"
"The boatman also asks to be careful..."
Song You returned the favor and stepped ashore.
The calico cat walked beside the boat, glanced down, and jumped lightly after a short preparation. The bay horse walked ashore from the boat as if it was walking on flat ground.
Song You glanced at the place where the ferry collapsed.
The boatman rowed his boat slowly away from the shore.
"It looks like it was trampled by something." Miss Wan Jiang's voice came from behind.
"These barbarians are so disrespectful that they fled to the hinterland of Dayan and regarded this place as Yuezhou." The maid smiled, as if she was not from Yuezhou.
"How are you two going?" Song You turned to look at them and actually extended an invitation, "Do you want to go to Yeshan together?"
"What the Taoist Master said before makes sense. Yeshan is remote and it is related to the world and the underworld. Wanjiang is a demon after all. Although he has a way to hide the demonic aura, it is not good after all." Miss Wanjiang said while smiling at him He bowed and saluted, very kindly, "Since Wan Jiang has no plans for the underworld, it would be better not to go, lest the national master or the gods find out about it and cause unnecessary misunderstandings."
"The Taoist priest doesn't want us to go to Yeshan, so how dare we go?" the maid said, shaking her head.
"You two really don't want to go?"
"If the Taoist priest kindly invites me, I will go to Wanjiang."
"If the Taoist priest suddenly changes his mind of doubting and becomes reassured that he has to take us with him, then we have no choice but to go." The maid also bowed and said, "Master admires the Taoist priest in his heart, and we have been together for many years. After such a journey, the Taoist Master must be well aware of this, so how can he go against the Taoist Master's thoughts? What's more, how can we disobey the descendants of Fulong Temple? "
"..."
Song You found it very interesting.
Sometimes I feel that one of their mouths tells the truth and the other mouth is dedicated to lying. Sometimes I feel that they are just the opposite. The one who originally told the truth is responsible for showing airs and etiquette, and the one who originally told lies is responsible for expressing the true inner character. and ideas.
However, after traveling thousands of miles and more than ten days, he has become accustomed to the fox's teasing, and he can filter it directly.
"Just two of you."
"Wan Jiang then accompanied the Taoist priest for another journey until he reached the county town and separated from the Taoist priest." Miss Wanjiang said, "After that, the Taoist priest went to Yinnanye Mountain to see the Taoist priest's things, and we stayed in the county. City, we will wait for our old friends from the Yuezhou Dragon Clan to come over and meet us to reminisce about the past."
"Yuezhou is gone, and the world is so vast..." the maid added behind her with a smile, "Although the monster has a long lifespan, this is likely to be the last time we see that old friend."
"How do you two meet him?"
"Monsters are different from people. We are old friends and have a deep impression on each other. As long as we no longer hide, he can at least sense us from dozens of miles away, not to mention hundreds of miles away." Miss Wanjiang said, "If we deliberately release The evil spirit is sensed by him, and as long as that old friend is still in Zijun, he will come to meet us whenever he wants."
"That's right." The maid grinned, "Looking forward to it."
"What happens after we meet?"
"Perhaps I will wait for the Taoist Priest in Zijun for a few days. If we are on the way again, we will walk a few hundred miles with the Taoist Priest." The woman said politely.
"It's best to wait in Zijun and wait for the Taoist Master to come back before leaving with him. In this way, the Taoist Master will be happy and we will be happy too." The maid said, lowering her head and looking at Mao'er with a smile, "Miss Sanhua You can have a bowl of cold porridge every day, oh, but now you can only drink half a bowl, you must be happy, right?"
"You two can do it yourself."
Song You has already taken steps.
Mao'er stopped where he was, turned to stare at the two women, and stared at them for a while. Then he ran up and caught up with his Taoist priest. Then he walked in front of the Taoist priest, looking back at the two women as he walked.
Without the carriage, the two of them were at ease, just like a lady from Changjing and her maid out to enjoy the spring. They walked leisurely while admiring the spring scenery on the roadside.
It was already early February.
The weather is warm, wild flowers are blooming, and even weeds and wild flowers have grown in the middle of the road. There are tiny butterflies flying. Sometimes the maid will reach out to catch one, either to tease the cat, or to show it to her master with a smile. You know, I thought they were really master and servant.
There are not many people walking this road. There are barren mountains beside the road. Occasionally, you can see huge depressions, like footprints. If someone saw them, it would be another legend.
Before dark, the group arrived at the county town.
The county town was primitive and deserted, with only one inn. Fortunately, it was a shelter from the wind and rain. Song You stayed there for one night and planned to leave early the next morning.
We should go directly to Yeshan.
