I didn't intend to become a fairy

Chapter 48 Liujiang Conference

Chapter 48 Liujiang Conference
After the meal, both of them fed the horses in the yard.

It was the end of the first lunar month at this time, the weather was very good, the sun was neither hot nor cold, a gust of spring breeze came, and the rustling of old trees outside the door made it very comfortable.

The woman squinted at Song You's horse.

"You don't want a rein on your horse?"

"The horse is obedient."

"No saddle either."

"I don't ride it."

"It's interesting..."

The woman continued to look at Song You's horse up and down, seeming very interested, and said in a tone like a man chatting with a car in later generations: "It looks like a Beiyuan horse."

"Yes."

"When I was in Yidu, I also wanted to buy a Beiyuan horse, but there were not many horses in the entire horse market, and they were too expensive." The woman shook her head, "I can't afford it."

"There are fewer horses this year."

"I heard that the imperial court intends to fight again."

"I've heard that too."

"Although your horse looks a bit short and thin, I'm afraid it was sick when you were in the womb or the mare was hungry, but it's still a Beiyuan horse, and it looks healthy, so I missed it."

"Yes."

"how much is it?"

"Sent by an old friend."

"Tsk tsk..."

The woman was speechless again and again.

Although she was praising Song You's horse, she has been feeding her own horse to eat grass, and she has been feeding it very carefully. With the other hand, she keeps stroking the mane, and she seems to be a person who thinks of love.

At this time, she seemed to suddenly remember, and she turned her head:
"By the way! I also walked the waterway, why is it not as fast as you? Could it be that you didn't rest at all along the way?"

"Two days off."

"Then you're going fast."

"It's easy to walk alone."

"It's true, I'm just dragged down."

"Where's your companion?"

"We only went to Long County, not to Lingbo. A few of my senior brothers got seasick and got very sick on the way, so I got off at Anqing. I came here alone." The woman said, "Speaking of which, receiving this letter was originally a My decision is not necessary for everyone to follow me."

"rational."

"Did you meet bandits on the way?"

"Met."

"How did you escape?"

"Tell them that I'm just a wandering Taoist, poor and accompanied only by a cat and a horse, and ask them to let me go."

"Is that all right?"

"Almost."

"Um……"

"..."

"Aren't you curious if I met a bandit?"

Song You understood immediately, and asked respectfully, "Have you met bandits?"

"Met."

"How did you get out of the siege with one step?"

"Scare away a group, cut down a group."

"Good martial arts with one step."

Song You glanced at the knife in her hand, there was a faint smell of blood, thinking that when they met her in Yidu, there were at least a dozen of them, and the Xishan School should be a well-known family.

The woman suddenly asked him again:

"where are you going?"

"what?"

"Where are you going on this trip?"

"Traveling around the world, there is no fixed place for now."

"interesting."

The female hero looked him up and down a few times, with a smile on her lips: "Taoist You Fang?"

"Yes."

"Is it just you alone?"

"And a cat."

"Oh, there's another cat..." The woman couldn't help smiling, "It's the first time I've seen a cat take a long journey. And this cat is so obedient, it doesn't run away unless it is tied to a leash. This horse also No tethering. The animals raised by you Taoist priests are so amazing."

"as big as World, nothing is nonexistent."

"You should have some skills, no wonder you dare to walk alone in the rivers and lakes."

"I am a Taoist, and ordinary bandits will not embarrass me."

"The world is so big, it's not so easy to go with just this Taoist robe."

"The road is obstructed and long, but the journey is coming."

"Can't understand."

"As long as you want to go, you can always go."

"Then where are you going tomorrow?"

"Maybe go to Anqing."

"Anqing County?"

"Yes."

"Did you also go to the Liujiang Conference?"

"Liujiang Conference? What is it?"

"You do not know?"

"do not know."

"Before traveling around the world, didn't you spend time in rivers and lakes?"

"I often practice in Taoist temples."

"Then what are you doing in Anqing?"

"On the way here, I saw beautiful mountains and rivers along the way. I heard from the boatman that the best place to see is Anqing, so I decided to go and see it."

"Then what are you doing here?"

"Delivery."

"Just delivering a letter?"

"I don't know where to go."

"You knew Long County before?"

"do not know."

"interesting……"

The woman looked at him twice more.

I thought he was also on the way, even if he didn't come to Lingbo County, he would have to come to Long County to bring the letter, but I didn't expect that he was just traveling in the mountains and rivers, going wherever he thought of, just to send a letter. Come to this strange landscape thousands of miles away.

This Taoist priest is wonderful and interesting.

"Anqing Mountains and Waters is really good, Shili Gallery, but I have only heard of it, and this is the first time I have come." The woman smiled, "After watching the mountains and rivers, you can go to the Liujiang Conference to join in the fun."

"Dare to ask, what is the Liujiang Conference?"

"The Liujiang Conference is a grand meeting of the rivers and lakes. It turns out that people from the rivers and lakes of our southwest states gather to compete in martial arts, discuss drinking capacity, and discuss business. If there are grievances and grievances, there are many people here. It’s clear, yes and yes fight. It’s once every five years. If you don’t mess around, it’s normal if you don’t know.”

"I see."

"It's not just that." The woman said, "Later, the Liujiang Conference gradually expanded, and the Jianghu gangs from the northwest also came, and later, the Jianghu gangs from the southeast also came. Up to now, it has become the biggest event in the Jianghu. , except for the extreme distance between the northwest and the northeast, even many people who don’t mix the rivers and lakes will come here, either to watch the excitement, or to find some financial resources, or to find some masters to recruit as disciples, in short, it is very lively.”

"Thank you for letting me know."

"You want to go?"

"think."

Song You hardly thought.

Since I came out to travel and view the world, how can I miss it if I have a chance to meet such a conference?

Don't talk about the roughness of the rivers and lakes.

After traveling for half a year, if you ask Song You what he has gained, counting from top to bottom, "Don't be arrogant, stay humble" should be ranked in the top three.

Don't be arrogant to this world, don't be arrogant to this era, and don't be arrogant to the boatman.

Naturally, one should not be arrogant in the rivers and lakes.

What's more, the colorful rivers and lakes, the ups and downs, are not only an important part of this era, but also very different from most other parts of this era, so you have to watch it.

"May I ask when and where the Liujiang Conference will be held?"

"February [-]nd, Anqing Horseshoe Mountain."

"Thank you."

"polite."

The woman waved her hand casually. Her horse is a very pure Southwest horse, which is smaller than Song You's horse. At this time, she is almost full. She patted the horse's neck and asked Song You:

"Where are you going this afternoon?"

"I don't know."

"I want to go out and visit this Lingbo County. I want to see what's so special about such a remote and difficult place full of bandits... Do you want to come together?"

"We will meet each other by fate."

"Then I'll go first!"

The woman didn't care, turned around and left.

Although she was just going out for a stroll, she still brought a long knife, but she didn't lead the horse anymore, and went out alone, her figure quickly disappeared into the bright afternoon sun, which was quite chic.

Song You also found this person interesting.

After a while, seeing that the Chen couple in the house had already started to pack their things and was about to return to Yizhou, it was boring for him to stay here alone, and he had to trouble Chen Han to talk with him, so he also took the cat out.

Let's go to Limbo County, where we met by chance.

Lingbo County is built on the mountain, the whole city is above the mountain, and the Liujiang River is at the foot of the mountain.

It is said that in ancient times, there was a big monster who made troubles and brought torrents of floods during the rainy season. The water covered thousands of miles, and the waves were turbulent, without retreating for three years. Some lucky people fled to this mountain, and only then did they save their lives.Later, in order to prevent the big demon from making trouble again, a city was built on the mountain and named Lingbo.

Although it is a county, it is actually very small.

There is only this mountain in total, but the mountain road is difficult, and it takes both physical strength and time to go up and down.

I love to eat beef here. I don’t know if it’s because the sky is high and the emperor is far away, or because of local customs. The ban on privately slaughtering farm cattle, which is not strictly controlled, doesn’t seem to exist here. There are beef stalls everywhere, and the sales are not expensive. .It is more convenient to eat beef here than other places.

"Horn comb……"

Song You stopped in front of a booth.

Picking up a comb casually, seeing the fine workmanship, I liked it in my heart, and I slid it on Empress Sanhua's back twice, and it was very smooth, so I bought it at a bargain price.

Bought a new toothbrush by the way.

At dusk, stroll back to Ganzao Lane.

The entrance of this alley is like Tianshui Alley. The predecessors planted a big tree to shade the descendants.Later generations don't waste it, and come here to cool off every evening and morning, or other leisure time.

The adults played chess or chatted with their parents, and the children ran around the tree-filled ground. The children's voices were all high and low, which was very ear-piercing.

It's different here today.

Because there are old people who talk about ancient times.

Why talk about ancient times?

It means that the elders tell stories to the young people, or tell some things that the young people have never seen or heard, and pass on wisdom and life experience in this witty form.In this era, this is one of the most important channels for young people to gain wisdom and experience and understand the world.

A group of people surrounded the old tree, or sat on the stone steps, or sat on the stone, or sat on the bench, and even a child climbed up the tree, lying on the branch and staring down.

The woman surnamed Wu was also here, leaning against the wall with her knife in her arms.

Seeing Song You approaching, she waved to him.

Song You walked over, neither coddling nor caring, and sat down casually at the door of a family. Mistress Sanhua followed obediently, sat beside him, and looked curiously at the child next to him.

There are also children who are attracted by her and stare at her intently, but because of Song You and the woman with the knife, they dare not approach her for a while.

"Is this fate?"

The woman asked Song You in a low voice, not daring to disturb the old man.

"Fated."

Song You replied in a low voice.

At this time, the old man was telling the story of the previous dynasty.

This kind of amateur storytelling does not have the skills of a storyteller, and the structure of the story is not so complete. As you talk, you have to think about it, like an ordinary neighbor talking about what happened in the next village last year.But this simple statement also has its own fun. From time to time, someone interrupted to ask, and then discussed with the old man, talking and talking, very casual.

As we talked, the children became unhappy.

If they could barely listen to the legendary stories of ancient heroes, they chose to talk about ministers and prime ministers. In comparison, what they wanted to hear most were stories about gods, ghosts and monsters.

The old man is soft-hearted and dotes on them, that's all.
