There are many treasures in this country
Chapter 37
Xiao Suo didn't leave the stall for several days.
Outside the back door of the small courtyard where he lives is an alleyway that can only be passed by a single person. Both ends are sealed by stone embankments, and a railing on the opposite side separates the lotus pond.He put a table at the door, laying out pens, inks and papers and was painting.
Ouyang Xu brought him a big sea, which was full of clear water, "It doesn't mean that no one came to buy paintings, why are they painting again?"
Xiao Suo dipped the brush into the water, rinsed it, and said: "The butler of the Lu family ordered it, saying that he wants to paint this lotus pond."
Ouyang Xu looked up at the withered lotus, curled his lips and said, "Nowadays, I can't understand the hobbies of literati and refined scholars. What's so good about a withered lotus leaf?"
"Maybe I think there is something special in decay." Xiao Suo held two pens in his hand, a big bucket and a small crab claw. He dyed and hooked at the same time, with a focused and serious expression.
Ouyang Xu's eyes fell on the hexagonal building opposite Feige Liudan, and he suggested, "What's the fun in just painting this lotus leaf? Why don't you paint this building as well, and decorate it with two people, making it look like a picture of enjoying yourself on a boat?" That's good."
Xiao Suo smiled lightly, and said: "I originally wanted to draw like this, but Steward Lu said that it would be better to paint the courtyard where we live, and a bird's-eye view is required, and even the characters in the courtyard should be decorated one or two. "
Ouyang Xu leaned against the railing, looked up at the eaves, and said: "The blue bricks and black tiles are interesting. It's just not as prosperous as the opposite side. But it's also a good match for the pond with withered lotus flowers. The high-rise luxury house needs red lotus and green The leaves are the perfect foil."
He sat on the stone edge under the railing, tilted his head and asked Xiao Suo: "Today is the Autumn Festival. There is a temple fair on the mountain outside the city. Would you like to go for a stroll in the afternoon?"
Every festival, the temple fair is always crowded with people, which is a good time for small businessmen and hawkers to look forward to.Wang Tiezui took Xingmu and a teapot to open a storytelling stall early in the morning.Xiao Suo is so clean, he doesn't like to get stuck in crowds of people, so he happened to be on an errand in Lu's residence, so he didn't go out, he just stayed at home painting and hiding.
"I'd better not go." Xiao Suo shook his head with a smile, "Chu Ming you should go, just in time to pick up Uncle Wang."
Ouyang Xu shook his sleeves and said with a playful smile, "Go ahead! I'm so boring, besides, Nanshan is so far away, I'm tired and boring running alone. If you go, we'll talk all the way, I don’t feel tired anymore. Anyway, your painting is almost done, and it’s boring to stay at home all day, so just take a break with me!"
Xiao Suo couldn't resist, so he could only smile and said: "Okay, let me finish the last two strokes first."
Ouyang Xu couldn't help being overjoyed, he was not as delicate as Xiao Suo, and his facial features were not so handsome, but his eyes were very bright, and his pair of dimples seemed to be filled with ten feet of sunlight, and his grin was like the sun shining in all directions, making people feel happy. People feel warm and cozy.
Xiao Suo leaned beside him, and seemed to be infected by his carefree mood. Facing the autumn wind in the high sky, he suddenly felt relaxed and open-minded.They walked together with a singing troupe, and it was quite easy to sit in the car.
The name of Nanshan is Fuzhoushan, which is several miles away from the city gate.The shortest way should be from Lianhua Street, crossing two alleys, exiting the South City Gate, and going straight all the way.But they walked through the southwest gate, and after leaving the city, they turned to the southeast along a not-so-wide path.
Xiao Suo was very puzzled, and asked: "We should go to the south gate, why do we have to take a detour?"
Ouyang Xu leaned against the cage and was basking in the sun, with his hands behind his head, squinting his eyes and said: "The south gate is haunted by ghosts, people in the capital always go south through the southeast or southwest gate, and never dare to go through the south gate. Why, you don't know ?"
Xiao Suo shook his head, remembering that he heard about the emotional entanglement between Shen Yan and Yan Jun before, and he saw the depressed scene when he walked to the south gate in a trance, and suddenly realized.It turned out to be haunted, no wonder no one set foot on such a towering tower.
Ouyang Xu leaned forward and said with a smile: "Do you know why it is haunted? I heard from my uncle that a high official was hanged on the southern tower, and the death was so horrific that everyone who saw it was stunned when they returned home. Later, there were rumors of ghosts in the city. Those who beat the city tower would be unlucky, and there would even be bloody disasters. After discussing this matter, public opinion gradually calmed down. But no one dared to leave the south city gate, only outsiders who didn’t know about it once in a while, and news of bad luck often spread.”
Xiao Suo recalled the last time he had been there, couldn't help being afraid for a while, and said with a pale face: "Your silence is strange. We shouldn't believe these things."
"What are you afraid of if you don't believe me?" Ouyang Xu laughed, he clearly believed it.
"He Zeng...he was afraid of it!" Xiao Suo gathered his clothes and leaned into the car.
Ouyang Xu smiled and said: "Your face is pale, but you are still stubborn! Don't be afraid, why are you shaking?"
Not to be outdone, Xiao Suo muttered: "...The autumn wind is very cold."
It was noon when they reached the mountain.Wang Tiezui put away the stall for the time being, and squatted under a tree to eat lunch.Shan Gu stood next to her, and there was a wonton stall in front of her, and there were many diners sitting under the small pergola, all of whom were visitors to the temple fair.
When Shan Gu saw the two of them, she smiled and said: "I said you two should come too. Is there any reason why you are bored at home today and don't come to join in the fun? But haven't you eaten lunch yet? I'll serve you wontons!"
Ouyang Xu had a sweet mouth, and hurriedly said, "I haven't eaten yet. I'm waiting for my aunt's wontons on an empty stomach! I heard that Bazhenlou's craftsmanship is not as good, so why don't you try it?"
Shan Gu patted him with a smile, and said angrily, "It's your glib tongue, but you are the only one who is honest!" Having said that, she was busy serving him wontons.The slippery one that the elders in the family scold the most is often also the favorite.An honest child like Xiao Suo is the one who suffers the most.
"You can eat first, I want to go to the back." Xiao Suo said with a smile: "Girl don't need to order mine, just come back and eat."
Ouyang Xu hurriedly said: "Let's go after eating, I'll accompany you!"
Xiao Suo shook his head with a smile: "After eating, Uncle Wang should go out to tell a story, you leave it for him to help, don't worry about me. It's not big here, I'll just take a look and I'll be back in a while."
"That's fine, Auntie will keep it for you." Shan Gu handed him an oiled paper bag, "Take this. This is the social cake distributed by Guanli in the morning. It is clean and untouched. If you are hungry Well, it’s better to put two pieces first.”
Xiao Suo nodded, thanked him, and walked behind the mountain with the paper bag.The vendors are all guarding in front, and the incense is also offered in the temple here. There is a big bronze tripod there, and the accumulated incense is about to be poured out.
Behind this is a layer of mountain gates, a small courtyard to enter.Going up the white stone steps, there are two strong pine trees in front of the green hill, and there is a Taoist temple in the middle. The word "Yunqi" is written on the black wood and gold plaque.
Xiao Suoxin stepped into the temple, only to smell the faint scent of incense coming from the hall, there were a few tourists scattered in the courtyard, but most of them lacked interest, and walked out after a little look.
There is a wishing pool in this temple, and there are many people who come to have fun on weekdays, but it is noon now, those who pilgrimage in the morning go home, and those who pilgrimage in the afternoon have not yet come, and everyone is busy filling their stomachs, so Instead, the view became quiet.
A cloud rose in Xiao Suo's heart, he took out a copper coin from his bosom, and threw it at the copper carp in the wishing pool.But the copper coin lost its strength halfway, and fell to the ground with a "dang".He originally wanted to touch another one and throw it away, but thinking about his hand strength and accuracy, he decided not to.
"What wish did you make?" Suddenly someone asked him.
Xiao Suo turned his head and immediately stayed where he was, and after a long time he cupped his hands and said: "I have seen the general."
Shen Yan lost a lot of weight, with slight shadows on both sides of his cheeks, he raised his eyebrows and asked him: "What wish did you make, can't you say it?"
Xiao Suo said in a daze: "Xu's... If you say it, it won't work."
Shen Yan also took out a copper coin from his bosom, and said: "Make your wish again." After speaking, he threw it like a hidden weapon, and the copper coin was thrown into the mouth of the copper carp impartially, causing a burst of water spray .
Xiao Suo was startled, his eyes couldn't help turning sour, and he asked again: "Are the injuries on your body healed? I fell that day, is it okay?"
Shen Yan didn't look sideways, just stared at the pond in front of him, and didn't even look at him.It was as if these words were just a random question, not held in the bottom of my heart day and night. Seeing him today, I felt like a mountain torrent bursting a bank, and I finally couldn't help but show up to talk.
Xiao Suo just wanted to find a crack in the ground to hide in, it was better than facing him and his care at this moment. "Thank you, General, for your concern. The student's injury is fine and healed up long ago. He didn't fall down a few days ago."
Polite tone, alienated expression.
Before Shen Yan opened his mouth, he said again: "The student still has something to do, so I'm leaving first." Then, he cupped his hands and walked out.
There were many guards in disguise around him, he could stop him at any time, but he still couldn't move.At this time, it was past lunch time, and tourists from outside poured in here in groups.
"Wait!" As soon as Shen Yan spoke, the world suddenly violently turbulent.
Xiao Suo just wanted to escape, but just two steps away, he was blocked by the oncoming tourists.He stood at a loss in the middle of the crowd, crumbling by the crowd.
Suddenly, the world was dizzy for a while, followed by violent shaking.Everyone paused for a moment, as if they were a little dazed.I don't know who it is, suddenly shouted: "The ground is shaking, run!"
Xiao Suo hadn't recovered from the memory, the tourists around scattered and fled, knocking him to the ground.At this moment, there was an earthquake, and everyone was focused on running away, and no one paid attention to the number of lives under their feet.
He was stepped on by several people one after another, and tripped over several people one after another. He was unable to get up, and his heart was instantly enveloped in panic. Could it be that he died like this?
"Get up!" Shen Yan rushed into the crowd without knowing when, and saw him stretch out a hand, his whole body seemed to be shrouded in light, "Follow me!"
Xiao Suo was lifted up by him, and he breathed a sigh of relief, he half pulled and half hugged him and ran away, so frightened that he couldn't say a word.After finally walking to the open place behind the view, Shen Yan touched him and asked repeatedly: "How is it? Is it hurt? Tell me where it hurts! Why don't you speak? Did you suffer from an internal injury? My heart feels suffocated, do you feel a surge of energy and blood?" Patting his cheek, he said urgently: "Speak quickly!"
Xiao Suo remained silent, staring at him in a daze, as if frightened.Shen Yan felt palpitations, pulled him into his arms suddenly, pressed him tightly and sighed, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I am here. Dubao, be good, everything is fine!"
A water stain spread out on his chest, slowly soaking his clothes.
Tears are so salty, they stung him in pain!

Ouyang Xu's eyes fell on the hexagonal building opposite Feige Liudan, and he suggested, "What's the fun in just painting this lotus leaf? Why don't you paint this building as well, and decorate it with two people, making it look like a picture of enjoying yourself on a boat?" That's good."
Xiao Suo smiled lightly, and said: "I originally wanted to draw like this, but Steward Lu said that it would be better to paint the courtyard where we live, and a bird's-eye view is required, and even the characters in the courtyard should be decorated one or two. "
Ouyang Xu leaned against the railing, looked up at the eaves, and said: "The blue bricks and black tiles are interesting. It's just not as prosperous as the opposite side.
