Chapter 28 Dragon King

Chapter 28 Dragon King
Because of the Dragon King Temple Fair, during the days from August [-]th to [-]th every year in Lingzhou City, the most lively is not the Mid-Autumn Moon Night, but the night of August [-]th.

On this night, the boats on the river are brightly lit, and the gates of Lingzhou City will not be closed at night. This lively and joyful scene will last all night until the morning of August [-]th.

Now it is the morning of the [-]th, and all the people who are supposed to participate in the temple fair and watch the tide have come. The streets are full of people, the hawkers are shouting loudly, and the lion and dragon dance team walks past, beating gongs and drums along the way, making it lively extraordinary.

And in the daytime of this day, many beautifully dressed girls walked through the crowd with bursts of fragrance.

In fact, some of the girls are brothel girls. At night, when others are entertaining, it is their working time, so we should seize the daytime and enjoy the temple fair.

What's more, the crowds are turbulent, and everyone pushes and gives way, and they are not afraid to go out and give pointers as usual.

Wang Fu's thoughts of looking at the beautiful woman had long since been crushed by the crowd.Fortunately, the prince is rich and powerful, so he directly spent his wallet on the first floor of the attic. He can watch the tide on the edge of the Yu River, and he can also watch the surrounding people from the attic, and he can still see some beautiful girls if he squints his eyes.

Xiaoqian also found that the picture was different from what she had imagined, and it was really too crowded.

There was no rebuttal to my cousin's suggestion to go to the attic to watch the tide.

Standing on the attic, Qin Chuan saw the magnificent tide coming towards the river embankment. Unlike the river tide he imagined, the tide in front of him was strangely shaped like fish scales.

Qin Chuan's eyesight is very good now, and at a glance, he can't see any fish in the fish-scale tide, and he can feel a mighty aura rising into the sky.

But Wang Fu and Xiaoqian couldn't detect this majestic aura.

Qin Chuan knew that the tide of fish scales must be related to Lord Long, and the mighty aura was also related to Lord Long.

Seeing Qin Chuan pondering, Wang Fu didn't seem very happy, "Liuxian, this is a fish-scale tide that is rarely seen in ten years. Although you can't see the grand scene of wavers waving red flags, this spectacle of fish scales really requires luck. Come on, don't you know?"

Qin Chuan shook his head, it was his first time to watch the tide in Yujiang, not to mention it was rare to see it in ten years, naturally few people mentioned it.

Wang Fu: "You are a little Sanyuan who is rarely seen in ten years. When you meet a fish scale tide that is rare in ten years, I heard old... my father said that fish scale tide means good weather in the coming year, which is a kind of auspiciousness."

"When the fish scale tide appears, will there be no fish in the Yujiang River?"

"Yes."

Qin Chuan was a little disappointed, it seemed that he would not be able to catch yellow croakers, but he was not too disappointed. When he got the money from selling books, he could just buy a yellow croaker swim bladder in the city.

He came here with a dispensable mood.

Qin Chuan leaned on the railing to watch the tide, quietly experiencing the ebb and flow of the fish scale tide, and the mighty breath pouring into the river bank and slowly dissipating.

He guessed in his heart that the majestic aura might be the Dragon Lord of the Yujiang River. As for the appearance of the fish scale tide, it was not an accidental phenomenon. What does it mean?

Qin Chuan seems to have touched some kind of secret in the world, but he can't find the way.

It was also because he knew too little about the secrets of practice in this world.

The aura of this world is so thin, but the space is so firm, there are gods, ghosts, and monsters, and what is the catastrophe that will happen hundreds of years later, Qin Chuan felt in his heart that behind this world, there is likely to be a hidden world. Horrible truth.

This truth is obviously not at the moment when Qin Chuan can touch it.

He concentrated on admiring Jiang Chao, and Xiaoqian next to him was also somewhat lacking in interest, and begged Qin Chuan to tell her the story behind marrying the right man in the wrong sedan chair.

The emotional little girl waited for a long time, thinking about it all the time.

Qin Chuan rejected her and told her that if she knew the plot and read the text of the novel later, there would be no surprises like that.

Xiaoqian was right after thinking about it, so she asked Qin Chuan to tell her other stories. Qin Chuan couldn't think of a suitable story for a while, so Xiaoqian smiled slyly, "Brother Liuxian, tell me the story of Yingying."

Qin Chuan is no stranger to Yingying's biography. In fact, some literary stories in this world are similar to the world he lived in before, not only that, but also include the Four Books and Five Classics, etc...

All the worlds he experienced have similar cultural contexts.

Strictly speaking, it is more like the same plant, with different flowers blooming, and you can always find similarities when you trace the roots.

That's why Qin Chuan was able to blend in like a duck to water.

He frowned slightly, but he didn't really want to talk about Yingying's Story, because Yingying's Story was the predecessor of The West Chamber, and it was a story of a gifted scholar and a beautiful lady.In the final analysis, the essence of this story is a story of an affair between a scholar and an official family.

Qin Chuan didn't want Xiaoqian to have any other associations, let alone step back ten thousand steps. If she married Xiaoqian, after a few years, would this living woman become a ghost according to the established inertia of fate?

Could it be that he really married a female ghost?

There is a half-demon, a little banshee, and a female ghost in the family, and he is an immortal monster.

Not to mention, this style of painting is quite appropriate.

In short, it's inappropriate to tell a story about an affair with a little girl, very inappropriate.

Seeing that Qin Chuan rejected her again, Xiaoqian frowned. Even though it was men's clothing, it also had a fairy-tale charm.She almost hugged Qin Chuan's arm, "Brother Liuxian, have you read my poem? How is it written?"

"not bad."

"Then how about you send me another poem?"

Repeated rejection is always bad.

Under the threat of Xiaoqian's wink, Wang Fu had no choice but to persuade: "Liuxian, you can write another poem for her."

Qin Chuan: "I don't know any poems. If I have any, I've heard a few lines sung by a hermit in the mountains occasionally, and I'll remember them."

Xiaoqian rolled her eyes: "Has the hermit ever sung your words about enjoying the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

While the two were talking, a servant went up to the attic, panting, "May I ask who is Mr. Qin?"

Wang Fu was a well-known playboy in the city, so the guards knew him of course, so he directly asked Qin Chuan, who was handsome and elegant, and Xiaoqian, who was pretending to be a man.

"It's next."

"The villain is from the yamen of the school. In the evening, the master invited Qin Xianggong to go to Linchuan for a drink. This is the letterhead that the master gave you. Please accept it. You must come at that time, otherwise the villain will not be able to pay the job, and you have to go Take a slap."

Qin Chuan looked at the letterhead, and there was Tixue's personal seal on it. It was expected that Huang's family would not dare to forge Tixue's private seal to cause trouble and send a fake letter. After all, it has too much to do with it.I think it's really an invitation to study.Tixue has absolute control over the examinations of the students, not to mention being very kind to Qin Chuan, Qin Chuan naturally did not refuse his invitation.

The content of the letter also asked Qin Chuan to prepare a Mid-Autumn Festival poem. If it is done well, it will have some benefits tonight.

Doing Mid-Autumn Ci on August [-] is not uncommon in Lingzhou City, because after the [-]th night, the Dragon King Temple Fair is over, and the Mid-Autumn Festival for Lingzhou people is really over.

Xiaoqian read the letter afterward, and smiled, "Brother Liuxian, I didn't expect that I would go with Grandmaster. I'm going to have a drink at night, so I don't need to show me this word in advance."

Before Qin Chuan could refuse, Wang Fu over there said, "Liu Xian, you just let Xiaoqian go. The Grand Master recognizes her. My uncle's seat master is the Fangshi who is studying. A few days ago, Xiaoqian also went I have met the Great Master."

"Since that's the case, Xiaoqian will go with me. Where's Brother Wang?"

"I won't join in the excitement, but we can go together at night."

Qin Chuan knew that Wang Fu was definitely planning to take this opportunity to drink flower wine at night, so he nodded his head too lazy to poke Mr. Wang.

If we talk about the lyrics of enjoying the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Dongpo's water melody song "When will the moon be there" is naturally the first. Unfortunately, this word already exists in this world, and it is very popular. Qin Chuan had heard it many times before he awakened. .

It happened that the man was also Dongpo, but he worked for the Qi Dynasty instead of the Song Dynasty.

Xiaoqian's family is very knowledgeable, Qin Chuan asked Xiaoqian which of the most outstanding lyrics in the world today are based on the head of water tunes, on the grounds of looking for inspiration.

Xiaoqian recited them one by one.

Qin Chuan had a plan in mind.

He was keenly aware that the invitation to study was not simple.Qingqing said earlier that Lord Long of Yujiang liked to socialize with scholars and talk about the world.

Just now, the mighty aura came ashore, it should be Yu Jiang Longjun, and the head of scholars in Lingzhou is of course Tixue.That is to say, the great master praised by all scholars.

Seeing Wei Zhizhuo, Qin Chuan guessed in his heart that he might not be able to meet the legendary Yujiang Dragon Lord tonight.

If it is true, the benefits must have something to do with Yu Jiang Longjun.

It doesn't matter if you guess wrong.

When we arrive at Linchuan Painting Boat, everything will be clear.
