Bang bang bang!
Bang bang bang!
Hearing the applause behind him, Gu Beichuan turned around and saw Xiang Zhirou's eyes as bright as stars.
Under the admiration and even admiration of the other party, Gu Beichuan was defeated and changed the subject: "What do you think of this poem, Miss Xiang?"
"Nature is wonderful."
"This story is not like "Huainan Autumn·Gift to Xiang Bai" that takes a different approach, but it describes the vitality of spring and the recovery of all things."
"But even throughout the ages, there have been countless spring poems written."
"Gu's article can be regarded as one of the best."
"I just don't know, what is the name of this poem?"
"How about calling it "Huainan Spring·Gift to Xiang Yun"?"
Hearing this, Xiang Zhirou's eyes, which were already as bright as stars, shone even brighter, her cheeks turned red, she lowered her head and said in a coy tone, "Very good."
Seeing the girl like this, Gu Beichuan also had a smile on his face. Inadvertently, he caught a glimpse of the weeping willows on the shore again from the corner of his eye and said, "I have Miss Xiang with us today, and I feel very poetic, so I will write another poem."
"The jasper is as high as a tree, and there are thousands of green silk ribbons hanging down."
"I don't know who cuts out the thin leaves. The spring breeze in February is like scissors."
Boom, this poem was completed just as the spring breeze was blowing on both sides of the Huaihe River.
The branches of the weeping willows are blown high.
Or fall on the water surface, causing ripples.
Or floating in mid-air, like a vigorous green dragon.
Or fall to the ground and caress the face of Mother Earth.
Hearing this, Xiang Zhirou in the cabin couldn't help but stick her head out of the window, her eyes reflecting the so-called thousands of hanging green silk ribbons.
"Guys, what's the name of this poem?"
""Ode to the Willows""
"Yong Liu, Yong Liu." The girl's eyes were bright and she murmured to herself: "The Huainan Willow is truly one of a kind."
On the Huaihe River, an old man in a coir raincoat was rafting.
On the boat, a man and a woman.
The man is dressed in a moon-white robe, with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, and has a distinguished temperament.
The woman is dressed in aqua blue silk robe, as gentle as water, and has a pretty face.
She really is a talented man and a beautiful woman, and she is a perfect match.
…
At the same time, two seemingly ordinary old people came to Fuyang County.
Wei Qing looked at the Fuyang City Gate, with a smile on his lips, and said: "Your Majesty... Master, we have arrived in Fuyang. I'm afraid it will only take a few days to reach Huainan."
Except for these two old men, most of the people in this group were fierce and armored guards.
It can be seen that his identity is not simple.
Although the leader is ordinary, just like an old farmer in the field, you can tell that he is extraordinary by looking at the respectful demeanor of everyone around him.
"Well, then let's hurry up and wait until we get to Huainan to have a good rest."
"Sir, I heard that there are many delicacies in Huainan. The famous ones, such as Huainan roast duck and Huainan hot pot, have even spread to Qiandu."
"It's a pity that the chefs in Gandu can't make it taste like that, it's not authentic."
"Now that we have arrived in Huainan, we may be in luck." A guard said after hearing this.
"It's easy to talk about. It's hard work for you to protect me all the way. Just open your belly and eat when the time comes. The master will not miss the money for this meal."
"I also heard that the houses in Huainan are built with bricks and tiles. They are warm in winter and cool in summer, and they are very strong."
"If we can use this kind of technology to build a city wall, I'm afraid it will be easier for us to defend the city." Another guard said.
The old man nodded again and said: "Then you must observe it carefully. If it is really useful, find someone to find this method of building a house and send it to the north."
Hearing this, everyone was happy.
Although I was tired and hungry, I was in good spirits.
After all, as long as you arrive in Huainan, you will find good food and warm houses.
In comparison, the fatigue of traveling and traveling at this time is not unbearable.
Another three days passed, during which there was a spring rain.
The group of people was really exhausted and exhausted.
Wei Qing looked around, frowned, and said: "Logically speaking, this place should have entered the Huainan territory. Why is it so desolate?"
"Hi, Wei Cheng... I really don't understand the sufferings of the world. Huainan is a county after all, and it is very wide. Naturally, it cannot be prosperous everywhere. It is normal for it to be a little dilapidated."
When the leader heard the words, he also nodded and said: "Even in such a prosperous city, there are still places that are dilapidated and dirty, let alone Huainan?"
Hearing this, Wei Qing nodded and said with a wry smile: "It's true that I'm in trouble, but we are now exhausted. Our top priority is to find a local farmer to ask for some hot meals and vegetables, and rest for the night. We can go to the bustling center of the city tomorrow. place."
"What you said is absolutely true."
"Even if this place is remote, it shouldn't be deserted. We'll look for it later."
It took a long time, and the group walked for several miles. It was not until the sun set in the west and night fell that they saw fire rising and smoke curling not far away.
Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
In such a remote place, if you can't find someone, you can only spend the night outside. If you encounter some jackals, tigers and leopards...
The guards were fine in their heyday, but now they are short of men and horses, and they are afraid something will go wrong.
The group of people immediately walked towards the wisp of smoke.
When you look at it from a distance, you can only get a rough idea. When you walk in, you can see the whole house.
It is not the sturdy brick house that everyone expects to be warm in winter and cool in summer.
It was a dilapidated and low thatched house.
Seeing this scene, everyone frowned.
Especially Wei Qing. To be honest, he was from a poor family, so it wouldn't be a big deal to live in such a house.
How can a saint's body of a thousand pieces of gold be subjected to such humiliation?
As if he had read through their thoughts, the leader, Mr. Xiang, smiled and said, "I am not that delicate. Take some money and give it to them. Let's sleep here today."
No one dares to disobey Master Xiang’s words. Wei Qing immediately took action and walked forward to knock on the door.
However, what surprised everyone was that instead of knocking on the door, they knocked out the smoke.
Seeing this, a guard was furious and said, "Don't you want to receive us? Mr. Wei, step back, let me knock on it!"
This is just a thatched house, and its entrance is just a wooden door that has been in disrepair. The guards are strong and capable of breaking in.
The person in the door seemed to hear the guard's shout, and in just a moment, the creaking wooden door burst open.
A figure poked out from it, and everyone looked at it.
I saw that the person who came was stooped, his legs and feet were slow, and he even walked with a slight limp.
His face was covered with wrinkles, and his body was as skinny as a stick, as if he would collapse if the wind blew.
This...why is he so depressed?
For a moment, everyone thought together.
The next moment, the downcast old woman raised her head and saw the burly guards. She was panicked and frightened, and said: "My lords, the old woman knows that it's time to hand over food, but there is really no food left at home. Can you give me some grace?" day?"
