Talk about the world of mortals in detail

Night lighting in a restaurant is a big science. Not only are there lampshades and lampstands at the four corners of each column and everywhere on the wall, but there is also a windshield lamp at the corner of each table close to the windward side.

It's just that the storm lamp is for a normal table. Yi Shuyuan currently has half a window open on the table. The semi-circular arc on the windward side of the storm lamp cannot block the wind and rain on the window side and has long been extinguished. On the side.

Yi Shuyuan simply pushed open half of the window on his side, and the movable tenon support slid to the bottom to support the window so that it would not be blown back by the wind.

Seeing that Yi Shuyuan opened half of the window instead, the man sitting opposite smiled.

"Aren't you afraid that the wind and rain will hit you?"

"It won't help much if the windows are half closed, so just open them all to keep cool."

Yi Shuyuan said this and sat back in his seat.

"Huhu."

The slight wind sound seemed to be more noticeable, but strangely, when the window was opened, the wind and rain should have been louder, but it seemed to become smaller.

In other words, it has become softer, and the impact on other tables is smaller, which in turn brings some coolness to the summer nights.

Then Yi Shuyuan took a serious look at the person in front of him. He was about forty, wearing shorts, a headscarf, and no bangs. He had a square face in a green-gray dress, and had a hair about the length of a fingernail under his slightly ordinary facial features. beard.

He has a bit of a charlatan attitude, but his expression and current style of doing things can easily give people a bit of a ruffian feel.

But of course Yi Shuyuan would not judge a book by its appearance, because underneath the appearance of the man opposite him, his aura was not dark, which showed that the other man was not really a narrow-minded person.

After hearing Yi Shuyuan's words, the man opposite him mistakenly thought that his seatmate was mocking his behavior, and immediately snorted and kicked an empty bench.

"If you don't like it, go sit somewhere else!"

As he spoke, the man poured another glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.

"It doesn't smell like alcohol at all!"

Yi Shuyuan put away his smile and didn't say much. He placed the folding fan on the table and looked at the night rain outside the window. Although it was rainy and there were no stars, he felt the vastness of the lake even more.

The drinking man observed Yi Shuyuan with his peripheral vision, and saw that this man was really not annoyed at all. He felt that he might have made a fuss out of a molehill just now, and the energy he had accumulated dissipated.

Can't make any noise.

"Creation between heaven and earth is magical. Once there was no end of the fertile fields outside, but now it has become a vast and boundless Changfeng Lake. If you haven't seen it with your own eyes, who would dare to believe that it has only changed in just four years?"

Hearing Yi Shuyuan's emotional speech, the man who was drinking looked at Yi Shuyuan, but still didn't speak.

However, Yi Shuyuan looked at the man and said as if he was familiar with it.

"Historical books say that this place was also a lake in the early days of the previous dynasty, and the lake area was even larger. Not only did it cover most of Changfeng Mansion City to the north, it also bordered two states to the south!"

The drinking man subconsciously looked at Yi Shuyuan with shock when he heard this.

"So big? Then how did it disappear?"

Yi Shuyuan nodded, then smiled.

"Later on, canals were dug, and many rivers were led to Kaiyang waters. However, the main reason for the disappearance of Changfeng Lake was because the Dragon King of Changfeng Lake committed a major crime, and his own death also caused the water vapor of Changfeng Lake to drain out. Hundreds of years later, the Dragon King of Changfeng Lake disappeared. Wu Changfeng Lake!”

The man was stunned for a while.

"Is this also what the history books say?"

Yi Shuyuan smiled again.

"That's not true, it's just a wild legend from unofficial history."

Perhaps because these few words made the relationship more harmonious, the atmosphere between the two people also relaxed a lot, and the man talked more.

"Now that Dahu is back, does it mean that the Dragon King of Changfeng Lake is also back?"

"That's another story that hasn't happened yet!"

"Hey"

The man smiled.

"You are quite interesting. You don't look like an ordinary scholar, but more like a storyteller!"

Yi Shuyuan also smiled.

"How did you know that ordinary scholars are not interesting?"

"Sir, the food is here~~~~"

The waiter held a dinner plate in each hand and walked quickly to the table where Yi Shuyuan was sitting.

"Can you please help me, sir?"

Yi Shuyuan helped put a tray on the table, and then the waiter placed dishes on the table one by one.

"This is the fairy chicken, this is the fresh fish three meals, this is the lotus root box, this is the loofah and shrimp soup, this is the sauced meat, this is"

The waiter announced the dishes while serving them, and eight dishes came in one go.

"Sir, please use it slowly. I'll bring it over when the rest is ready!"

"Okay, thank you!"

"You're welcome!"

The waiter cupped his hands, picked up two trays with a smile, and left. The eight dishes already occupied most of the eight-person square table.

"I can't eat more than twenty dishes by myself. If you don't mind, please help me!"

This sounded absolutely true to the person opposite Yi Shuyuan. He looked at the two poor snacks in front of him, a plate of peanuts and a plate of cabbage, and then looked at the steaming dishes on the table.

"Then I'm not welcome!"

After saying that, the man reached out and grabbed a chicken leg and took a bite. The meat was fragrant and the bones were crispy and delicious.

"You're welcome! Oh, by the way, I have a little mink, which is very humane and likes to eat delicious food. I hope you don't mind it appearing on the table."

Hearing this, Hui Mian didn't care anymore and ran down Yi Shuyuan's arm and landed on the inner corner of the table. Yi Shuyuan took an empty bowl and put it in front of Hui Mian, and then gave it to Hui Mian. It holds a chicken drumstick.

The man was eating chicken legs and looking at the little gray mink. He also felt it was very strange. He had seen people raising cats, dogs, eagles, turtles and fish, but he had never seen anyone raising minks.

As a result, the little marten ate very quickly. The chicken leg was eaten up in a few times, and then he straightened up and pointed at the other plates with his paws.

Wherever Xiao Diao pointed, Yi Shuyuan picked up whatever dish he wanted until the small bowl was full. Unexpectedly, Xiao Diao actually pointed at the man's wine flask, earning a glare from Yi Shuyuan.

"When did you learn to drink?"

The little marten immediately retracted its claws and began to eat.

The man was dumbfounded by this sight. This damn man was so humane that he almost became a sperm!

"We eat too!"

"Uh okay."

Yi Shuyuan reminded him before he and the man started eating together. The latter may have felt a little embarrassed, but he even poured wine for Yi Shuyuan with his own wine flask, and apologized, while Yi Shuyuan did not Don't refuse.

The chicken was soft and fall off the bones, and the fish was even more delicious. The other dishes also had their own characteristics, and the two of them had their mouths full of oil.

Coupled with a very edible little ferret, the speed of destroying the dishes can actually keep up with the speed of the restaurant waiters serving the dishes.

Yi Shuyuan and the man gradually became familiar with each other.

"So Xiongtai has been helping to find someone?"

"Well, to tell you the truth, I have gone from looking for people to hiding from them. I have been looking for them for so long and I don't have the shame to go back."

Yi Shuyuan has a fresh and natural aura about him, which naturally makes people willing to believe him. In addition, as they gradually become familiar with each other, the man opposite him can see from his own experience of seeing people that the other person is a free and easy-going good person, so it is rare to meet a stranger. People complain.

The man's name is Wang Yunchun. He is from Qianzhou in the southwest of Changfeng Mansion. He claims to be a Jianghu person, but he knows a kind of local method. He is famous among his friends for being a miraculous traveler who can travel thousands of miles to search for traces.

Of course, Wang Yunchun is more famous locally, and he can be regarded as a street kid in the eyes of ordinary people.

More than a month ago, a friend brought an old man with a stooped body. He knelt in front of him with tears in his eyes and kept kowtowing. He asked him to help find his granddaughter. He said that he dreamed that bad guys took away his granddaughter a few days ago.

Although Wang Yunchun was regarded as a ruffian, he couldn't bear to see an old man kowtow to him, so he immediately helped him up and asked him why.

It turned out that the old man's youngest son had moved into another household, and the family was nearly a thousand miles away in Liuzhou, so it was impossible to know what happened to his granddaughter a few days ago.

"Oh? So this old man is just imagining it?"

Yi Shuyuan's tone changed slightly, he was obviously interested, and even Hui Mian's eating rhythm slowed down.

Wang Yunchun held the tip of a chicken wing in his hand and just sighed after hearing this.

"I feel the same way, but I couldn't stop the old man from kowtowing, so he gave me all the money he had saved, a total of sixty-two taels of silver, plus a gold hairpin left by his deceased wife."

"Did you take it?"

Hearing Yi Shuyuan's question, Wang Yunchun showed embarrassment on his face and nodded hesitantly.

"Wealth is very touching. There is so much money. I am also obsessed with it. I feel that if I don't get it, I won't get it for nothing. At most, I asked someone to find out some news in Liuzhou. Who would have thought that two days later, a friend would find the old man freezing to death on the street."

"Oh, only then did I understand why an old man could afford so much money. He sold his house cheaply."

Yi Shuyuan felt a little uncomfortable when he heard this.

"Then brother must have gone to Liuzhou, right?"

Hearing this, Wang Yunchun looked at Yi Shuyuan in surprise.

"Is this what Mr. Yi thinks?"

Yi Shuyuan nodded with certainty.

"Otherwise, you don't need to confide this to a stranger like me, you can just pretend that nothing happened!"

Unexpectedly, the villagers usually regarded him as a gangster, but today he was trusted by a Confucian scholar whom he met for the first time. Wang Yunchun was somewhat moved, and then nodded.

"I went and found the house of the old man's youngest son. Just as the old man saw in his dream, his little granddaughter was missing. When I first collected the money, I tried my best to find out, but now I'm riding a tiger and it's hard to get off."

"Brother, aren't you searching for thousands of miles?"

Wang Yunchun looked helpless after hearing Yi Shuyuan's words.

"My native method was also taught by an old warlock in my early years. In fact, it is just a rough calculation of fortune. Sometimes it is very magical, and sometimes it is clueless.

This time I have the birth date of the little girl in my hand, and I can only vaguely figure out the direction. Like a headless fly, I passed by Changfeng Mansion and felt depressed. I also heard about the wonders of the Great Lake, so I came to take a look."

Hui Mian puffed out his cheeks and raised his head to look at Yi Shuyuan, who thought for a moment and then asked.

"Can you tell Yi the birth date of the little girl?"

Wang Yunchun looked at Yi Shuyuan.

"Sir, do you know how to tell fortunes?"

"I don't know much about it, but I have a disciple who is good at it. Maybe he can help."

The apprentice understands, but the master does not?

Wang Yunchun was puzzled.

Normally, it would be impossible to reveal people's horoscopes casually, but this time they drank a lot, were drunk, and complained most of the time. In addition, Mr. Yi seemed to be trustworthy, and Wang Yunchun actually said this. come out.

"The ugly time on the third day of the twelfth lunar month in XX year."

Hearing this horoscope, Yi Shuyuan felt ripples in his heart and his expression changed slightly.

"He Xin."

"Squeak~~"

Yi Shuyuan was speechless, but Hui Mian screamed when he heard the words.

"Mr. Yi, what did you say?"

"It's nothing, I just feel that it is fate to encounter this matter. Brother Wang, how about I come to help you?"

This is not only Wang Yunchun's problem, but also Yi Shuyuan's, and even more so, Mo Shisheng's.

I originally planned to wait for Shi Sheng to be a little older and use his own senses to go find He Xin. Compared with others, Shi Sheng and He Xin's fate is the most important. It seems that now I have to move forward.
