Yongxi and Qinghe Town are not far apart. Yun Lang also followed his father to Yongxi to catch the market, so he didn't feel much when he followed Song Yu to Yongxi.
This trip to Zangfeng was Yunlang's first real trip, and he saw everything new along the way. No matter how hot the weather is, it can't heat up the blood of young people.
He likes the outdoors, and he also wants to visit different towns! "Sir, what is there to do in Jinyan?"
Song Yu shook his folding fan and said casually: "There are many beautiful girls." The original intention of his words was to comment on the beauty of flowers and plants, but it was a bit frivolous when connected with the previous dialogue.
He was just relying on the fact that there were no other people around at the moment, and said casually without any drama in it. But he didn't expect that as soon as he finished speaking, an arrow flew in from the car window and shot straight towards Song Yu.
Song Yu subconsciously turned his head and watched as the arrow flew past his cheek, broke off a strand of his hair, and inserted it into the car behind him.
Xie Nanshi also opened his eyes and was outside the carriage in an instant.
Song Yu was so frightened that he lifted up the curtain and looked over. He saw a beautiful girl wearing a moon-white costume, riding a maroon horse, holding a long bow in her hand, and looking coldly in the direction of Song Yu.
"Didn't this girl come from nowhere?" Song Yu took a breath, obviously he hadn't seen anyone yet when he looked out the car window.
The girl snorted coldly and spat softly: "You are a prodigal!"
Only then did Song Yu realize that his casual words had angered the girl, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I'm talking about this young lady, what I just said was just a simple compliment...well, I was really in high spirits, and I didn't pay attention to the words I used. I can apologize. But you can’t kill me right away. Isn’t that too unreasonable?”
The girl still sneered and looked at Song Yu with contempt. "You talk so unpleasantly, and there's no point in living."
"Sir, what nonsense are you talking to her! Let me go and meet her!" Yun Lang couldn't hold back his anger. He immediately pulled out his sword and was about to rush forward, but Song Yu grabbed him by the collar.
"Come back." Song Yu knew with just one glance that this girl was wearing Baihua Valley's school uniform, and by looking at the long bow in her hand, he knew that this girl was a violent girl.
As far as Yunlang is concerned, it’s better not to go up and deliver food randomly.
It was him who made the mistake first. Although the other party was not too polite, Song Yu couldn't possibly miss the point by arguing with an NPC: "It is indeed my fault, but the girl's words were too serious. Let's take a step back."
The girl's answer was to raise the long bow again, but this time she failed to successfully draw the bow. Instead, her arm softened and the long bow fell directly to the ground.
And Xie Nanshi, who had been silent just now, was still making kneading movements with his hands.
Even if Song Yu's words sound ambiguous, he should be punished lightly. Xie Nanshi didn't intend to take care of it at first. This pot had nothing to do with him. But this girl is trying to kill someone, which is too overbearing.
The girl screamed in surprise, her almond-shaped eyes widened. She was so frightened and angry that she wanted to do something again, but found that she couldn't move at all. "Let me go quickly, or I want you to look good!"
"You will recover after a stick of incense." Xie Nanshi said this in a cold voice, turned around and returned to the carriage.
Song Yu glanced at the girl helplessly. He originally wanted to check the girl's name, but he always felt that a girl with such an outstanding personality should not be a passerby. It was probably a branch line that he had never opened before, but when he saw that girl's murderous gaze, he could only touch his nose in disbelief.
Only Yun Lang was still aggrieved. He just felt that his master had a really good temper, even though the other party was rudely planning to kill someone, he still gave him a chance. But the master obviously didn't want to be entangled here anymore... He spat on the ground before picking up the riding crop: "You're getting an advantage."
According to his thinking, since others want to kill him, he must retaliate in kind. Otherwise, it would be a disaster to keep it!
Song Yu could tell just by looking at the person's expression that there were some unharmonious thoughts in the child's head, and immediately flicked his head rudely with his finger: "Why do you still want to eat someone? It's not business. Do you want to do it? Let’s go and go to Jinyan early.”
Although Yun Lang was still angry, he didn't insist anymore when Song Yu spoke. Without giving the beautiful girl a look, she turned around and got on the carriage and pulled up the reins.
The carriage started moving again.
When Song Yu returned to the carriage, he happened to look at Xie Nanshi. Song Yu smiled sheepishly. After all, he had picked this man up, but it was Xie Nanshi and Du Anchen who were doing the teaching of martial arts. In theory, Song Yu should teach the other party some thoughts and morals, but now it seems that the child is still a child, and everything can be done as he pleases.
Isn't this just because Song Yu didn't do his job well?
Xie Nanshi didn't think what happened to Song Yu's thoughts. Different from the era of Song Yu, the master-disciple system in "Meeting the Gods" is still the one where one day is a teacher and the other is a father. In the past, Yun Lang called him master, so he could use the excuse of "not officially becoming a master" to avoid interfering with the child's nature. But after Yunlang officially started, his master not only wanted to teach him swordsmanship, but also to establish a Taoist heart for him.
As for teaching ideological and moral character...it has nothing to do with Song Yu in the first place.
"I will have to travel around the world in the future. Even if he enters Zangfeng, I can't take him with me all the time." Xie Nanshi slowly closed his eyes. The little disturbance just now made him regain the energy to adjust his breath. However, he was not in a hurry to continue adjusting his breath. Instead, he looked at Song Yu sincerely and suggested to him: "Zangfeng also has a dedicated master who is responsible for teaching disciples to practice writing and cultivate their minds. You can listen."
"...I think you have a deep misunderstanding of me. No matter how bad I am, I have received nine years of compulsory education, okay?" Song Yu was helpless. He always felt that Xie Nanshi seemed to be particularly persistent in letting him go to school. .
Aren't you just unable to write calligraphy? He is the young master of Tianyong City. Maybe he can also promote hard-tipped calligraphy here. Thank you.
Xie Nanshi's eyes were as calm as water: "If you cultivate your mind enough, you won't offend that girl just now."
Song Yu was immediately discouraged. You really can't let others take the blame for saying the wrong thing. He scratched his head, and finally leaned against the wall of the carriage in frustration, sighing: "I'm sorry. I'll be careful not to talk nonsense in the future."
Xie Nanshi didn't speak, but raised the corner of his mouth slightly. Getting Song Yu to stop talking nonsense is probably about the same difficulty as getting him to practice successfully.
…
"Boss, do you want to take a boat?"
"Boss, come to our place, there are only three people left to fill the place!"
Jinyan County is different from other land cities in that it is an island not far from the coast. There are natural ditches outside the city, and developed waterways constitute Jinyan County's unique transportation system. Boats extend in all directions and can go to almost anywhere in the city.
There are also carriage roads in the city, but except on important occasions such as New Year and the city's birthday, Jinyan County will have large ships parked at the gate of the main city to form a series of pontoons for carriages and horses to travel. On weekdays, if carriages and horses want to enter the city, they still have to rely on waterways. However, ferries that can carry carriages and horses into the city often cost a lot of money, and they focus on a high-end market.
Manned ships appear much more casual. Boat owners often live near the water or simply use boats as their home, soliciting business outside Jinyan County all year round. Although they are in the coolie business, they can still get a better life through their own labor. Therefore, the atmosphere here is not only not depressing, but also lively.
The vegetable and fish markets on both sides of the waterway, as well as the ready-made snack shops, are dazzling. The development of the market has also guaranteed the livelihood of these boatmen. It is not uncommon here for a boatman who has never been ashore since he was born.
From Song Yu's perspective, Jinyan County has a bit of a shadow of a later internet celebrity tourist city.
It was still dark when they arrived at Jinyan, and various lanterns had been hung by the river. It is said that there are also particularities here. Most of the places where palace lanterns are hung are waterside teahouses, and the sound of ditty singing on silk and bamboo often comes from inside. Those who hang gauze lanterns and colorful dragons often tell stories and meet literati. The surnamed lanterns are some old shops that have been passed down for many years, the acupuncture lanterns are restaurants, and the row lanterns are wine shops...
Song Yu was dazzled, and Yun Lang's eyes widened. Song Yu rubbed his head and gave him a bag of money: "Go and find a place to charter a boat. It would be best if we can enter the city behind closed doors."
Yun Lang stuffed the money bag and disappeared in an instant.
Xie Nanshi and Yuan Fang were still in the carriage, so Song Yu was not afraid of losing things and went for a walk by himself. There’s really a lot to eat here, and there’s a lot of sweet water. It’s not like Yongxi Prefecture where there are levels. However, he didn't see the iced cheese he was longing for. Song Yu bought some casually and returned to the carriage. Yun Lang had been waiting for a long time with his neck stretched out.
"Oh, so fast? You didn't get ripped off, right?" Song Yu joked.
Yun Lang immediately shook his head, with a fresh look on his face: "No. I heard that Princess Jinyan has expressly stipulated that ferries are priced uniformly according to different grades. There is also a rating every three months. The better the rating, the higher the fee. There are only a few. It’s just that the Nodu that carries people back and forth is not included in the rating, and you can freely negotiate the price.”
Does this sound like a price bureau? This plan is really about stuffing private goods into the game. But in this way, the player's experience has both antique parts and modern parts, so there's nothing wrong with it.
Yun Lang urged Song Yu to get on the bus, and then returned all the remaining money to Song Yu: "I booked a second-class boat, and it will set off immediately."
Yun Lang drove the car to the boat shop, not far from where they originally stationed their horses. Song Yu originally thought that the average-sounding level of Yiji would be just fine, but he didn't expect that he would feel at home when he entered the boat shop. The middle-aged man with a friendly face welcomed the three people out of the car, and even set up a footrest next to the car frame to prevent the guests from having any inconveniences.
"Are these three guests coming to Jinyan County for the first time?" The middle-aged man said with a smile on his face, "Welcome to choose Bizhang. It is also a coincidence for the three of you that Bixian is about to jump directly to the end of the A-level. There are great changes in all aspects. Promotion. If the three guest officers are satisfied, won't you forget to mention it to the county when you get ashore?"
Have you met anyone in "Meeting the Gods" that you would like to praise? It feels strangely fresh. Song Yu felt that it was a big loss for him not to come to Jinyan County for a week.
