Chapter 637 Entering Sichuan

1days ago traverse Novels 1
In late summer and early autumn, the breeze caresses gently, and there is already a faint cooler atmosphere in the dryness and heat.On the towering and steep and winding mountain road, the sound of hooves ticking, and three fast horses rushed towards them in the dust.

The horse panted, spitting mist, sneezing constantly, and its body was covered with dust, and it seemed that it had already traveled a long way.

Among the three knights, two young men and a thick man, their clothes and cheeks were covered with dust, and beads of sweat dripped down their faces, rushing out of the ditches, turning them into several large glossy faces.

The Shu Road is difficult. Since entering Sichuan, the road has been circling among the mountains and ridges. The so-called official road is just a few small paths dug out halfway up the mountain. It is extremely narrow. On the one hand, leaning against the steep cliff, turning your head, you can see the cut-cut rock walls and the endless river water under your feet.

Brother Lin, look!The strong man walking in the front had already gotten off the horse. He glanced around for a few glances, suddenly pointed to the boundary marker on the side of the road, and shouted excitedly.

The young man in the middle hurriedly walked forward and walked with the strong man.This world mark is old and the handwriting is mottled, and three bright red characters can be seen faintly.

Looking at my feet, the Jinsha River on Shi'an Cloud Cliff rolled with waves, and the Minjiang River from the snow-capped mountains kept flowing. The Erjiang River flowed here, focusing and gathering. The water lifted huge rocks and waves slapped the shore. The huge waves were like clouds and snow in the sky, whistling and whirling between the cliffs, instantly turning into a rebellious dragon, roaring into the Yangtze River.

Is this Xuzhou?The young man patted the horse's back, and a deep surprise appeared on his shiny face.

Xuzhou (now Yibin, Sichuan) is located in the south of Sichuan, directly at the junction of Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou provinces. It spans the Lu River in the east, Jiayang in the west, Zhaotong in the south, and Liangshan in the west.

The Jinsha River, Minjiang River and Yangtze River flow here. Since ancient times, the Three Rivers have been known as the Three Rivers entering Sichuan and Sichuan and reaching Xuzhou.

The servant immediately behind wiped the sweat beads from his forehead, took the water bag and pastry from the horse's back and handed it to the two of them in front: Third brother, Commander Gao, eat some dry food first!

From Beijing to Sichuan, I went through the fatigue and hardship day and night. I can imagine how tired and hard it is. My third brother took the pastry and swallowed it a few bites, and then drank it hard.

The cold water droplets penetrated into his chest along his neck, and he was indescribably refreshed and clever. He put down his water bag and looked at the Yangtze River. After a long sigh, he let out a long sigh: Xuzhou, it has finally arrived, it is not easy!

Isn’t it just not easy?Commander Gao smiled and said: After the Mid-Autumn Festival, we set out, from north to south, from east to west, across the four provinces of Beijing, Shandong, Henan and Hubei. We traveled day and night for more than ten days. The three of us combined and had changed no less than twenty fast horses. We didn't reach the territory until today. Is that easy?

It's okay, it's okay, just treat it as a traveler!The third brother smiled and looked forward with a faint look.

The mountain road circles, hanging horizontally in the belly of the mountain, extending forward slowly.I went through another piece, but it suddenly fell and I could no longer find the exit.

After taking a few more glances, he still did so. He suddenly opened his eyes wide, his face full of surprise: It's broken, there's no way out!

When you arrive at the boundary of Xuzhou, you have no way?!No one believes this, but it happened!The three of them were so scared that they didn't dare to chew the steamed buns, and hurriedly led them forward.

As the third brother said, the cliff had just walked forward less than two hundred feet and the cliff had fallen. No matter how you look for it, you didn’t even see a path ahead.

Seeing the faint green mountain opposite, Commander Gao swallowed and said angrily: It's so evil, you can't even see a road!Could it be that this Xuzhou is isolated from the outside world?!

It is obviously impossible to isolate the outside world. Xuzhou is surrounded by mountains and rivers and barbarians appear. Since ancient times, it has been an important town in the southwest half of the wall and Sichuan. How could it have no access to the outside world?

The third brother frowned and thought for a long time, his eyes fell on the surging river. Suddenly his eyes lit up and he jumped up excitedly: Who said there is no road? Isn’t this the case?!

Looking in the direction of his finger, the three rivers merged and the waves were surging, and the water splashes hit the cliff and flew straight to the hillside.

Commander Gao opened his eyes wide and said in horror: Brother Lin, are you talking about crossing the river?!

Brother Lin nodded and said: Sichuan and Shu have been "seven mountains, one water and two fields" since ancient times. Land and water interactions are intertwined, and the shore cannot be connected, so there is only boating.

At the intersection of the rivers and lakes, the water flows rapidly, like a river that connects the sky. Not to mention a wooden boat, even if a huge rock falls down, it will not make a wave.

Commander Gao was stunned: Brother, don’t scare me, how can I sail on this river?!Even if you can sail, which ship dares to ferry?

It's Ah, who dares to ferry?!The third brother sighed, shook his head silently, and his brows tightly twisted together.

Hey, the servant behind him glanced at him from a distance and suddenly exclaimed: Third brother, third brother, look, there seems to be a boat in front of him!

Before he finished speaking, he heard a melodious mountain song sounding between the cliffs:

Hello

Chrysanthemums bloom on Liangshan.

The smell of flowers,

If you have feelings,

Don't wait for the flowers to fade

From the cliff below, a bamboo row slowly emerged, with two young and old people on it, holding a bamboo pole on each side and slowly supporting the water.

The singing came from the boat, and the bamboo rows were like leaves on the wind and waves, shaking and swaying, but never overturned.

Is there really someone who rides a boat across the river, or uses such a simple bamboo raft?!Commander Gao's eyes widened, and he didn't dare to let out a breath.

The third brother had already jumped up and shook his arms and shouted: Uncle, uncle, can you carry us for a ride? We are going to cross the river.

The water flowed fast, and he shouted a few times before the people on the boat heard it.

The two shipmen turned around and were a strong old man and a pretty girl.

The girl had fair skin and beautiful face. She was wearing a long blue-black slanted collar and a pleated floral skirt. The collar, cuffs and waist were embroidered with five-color silk thread, which was a typical Miao women's outfit.

The boat stopped slowly, Miao Nv turned her head, looked at them a few times, and said in surprise: Are you from the Hua family?!

The girl's Chinese language is crisp and sweet, and the few of them feel extremely comfortable to hear. The third brother nodded quickly: Yes, yes, we are all from the Hua family!Miss, we have urgent matters to cross the river. Can you please take us for a convenient way?!

The girl turned her head and said to the old man: Dad, these three Hua family members are going to cross the river. Should they take them with you?

The old man shook his head and looked puzzled: The Hua family has always been insidious, so it would be better to deal with them less!

The third brother couldn't understand their Miao language, but when he saw the old Miao man shook his head, he knew something was wrong and hurriedly said: Miss, don't worry, as long as you can carry us across the river, I will give you as much money as you want to cross the river!

This statement angered Miao Girl. She slapped the water hard and said angrily: Dad said that the Hua family is insidious and cunning, and it is not wrong at all. He talks about money all the time. Only your Hua family will do this!Help others and get money. If you pass it back to the copycat, Jiuxiang and Shibawu will laugh at us!

Her voice was crisp, with a nice Sichuan-Shu charm, and she spoke quickly and quickly. The Miao old man smiled and nodded to cheer for his daughter!

The third brother blushed and laughed embarrassedly: Miss is right, helping others is the source of happiness, it is because I am too vulgar, I forgive my sins!That, can we get on board now?!

The daughter glanced at her father and obtained his consent. Then she nodded and said: Get on the boat quickly, but your horses can only stay on the shore!

The third brother nodded, patted the horses a few times, and put them back into the mountains and forests. The three of them got on the boat.

The bamboo row was extremely simple. As soon as the three of them got on the boat, they swayed and sank into the water. Commander Gao was both land ducks, and their faces were pale. Only the third brother claimed that the little white dragon in the river was sitting motionless.

The father and daughter slowly rode the boat, and the bamboo defecation was like a leaf, floating gently towards the opposite shore.

The third brother was on the boat, and the sound of water was whispering in his ears. He was silent in his heart, and his body was as light as if floating on the water.

The stone walls on both sides are towering, green pine trees stand, and beasts are singing endlessly, green and quiet.

The rushing river water rolls eastward, hovering straight to the sky.

His eyes wandered, landed on the cliff at the highest point, and suddenly exclaimed: What is that?!

On the top of the high cliff, hundreds of coffins were hung with ropes. Even though they had been through thousands of years, they did not wither or rot.Miao Nv said lightly: This is a hanging coffin of a man, and it is the rock burial place of our ancestors!

Is this the hanging coffin?!

The third brother gave a thumbs up and sincerely praised: I don’t know how these coffins were hung up. They are amazing, they are amazing!If I could also hang here in the future, and see the green mountains and clear waters and the surging rivers, what a happy thing it would be!

When Miao heard that he stopped talking about money, she didn't speak so annoyingly, so she nodded and said softly: My wish is the same as you!

Not only you and me, I am afraid that everyone in the world has the same wishes!He nodded, sighing at the carvings of stone walls on both sides of the shore, his eyes full of envy.

The girl supported her hands with her hands and sang in a cappella:

Sixty-seventy people die.

How many 180 can there be?

The emperor also has a return date!

Who can never fall like a mountain that supports the sky?

Who can stand like a rock wall blocking a river forever?

I'm willing to be the Dongjiang River.

It flows straight to the west every year!

Miao Girl is good at singing and dancing, and her folk songs come when she opens her mouth. This song is elegant and lofty, and is intimate with the scene, which is the most attractive.

The third brother looked up at her and enviously said: Miss, your singing is so nice.Do the women in the Miao family have such beautiful singing voice as you?

The father who was leaning on a pole and entering the water smiled and said: Huajialang, my daughter is a famous lark. I wonder how many "Mido" likes her!

Dad, the girl screamed in a hurry, and stepped straight with shyness. The bamboo row swayed gently, and Chief Gao was so scared that he screamed.

The third brother was stunned and murmured: Mido?My family also has a lot of rice!

Miao girl smiled so hard that she leaned back and forth: Miduo, this is our Miao language. In your Chinese, it means a young man, not the rice you eat!

It turned out to be such a Mido. The third brother laughed and said: The young man is ‘Mido’, so the girl should be ‘Mido’?Understand, understand!

It’s not ‘Mi Shao’, the girl said anxiously: Miao’s words call it “Mi Kuai”!Do you like to be smart?!

When she was anxious, the Sichuan-sounding and Shu flavor came out. The third brother laughed happily: I am ‘Mido’, you are ‘Mida’, you are ‘Mida’, you should say it earlier, I know!

Listening to his voice, Commander Gao and the other one laughed loudly, which made the girl blush.

They were all young people. After a while, the gap gradually faded. Looking at the girl's crystal skin and fair wrists, he said in confusion: Miss, are you ferrying on this river?!

When Miao heard his voice, Miss, she couldn't help but frown: You are really not straightforward, I have a name!What is your name?

The third brother hurriedly said: My name is Lin Wanrong, everyone calls me Lin San, also known as Third Brother!But I don’t know if the lady’s name is respected?!

The girl snorted: Don’t call me Miss!My father's name is Buyi, and I was born by the lotus pond. According to our Miao family customs, I took my father's name and my place of birth. My name is Yilian!

Yilian?!Lin Wanrong shouted: This name is so good!Oh my God, why didn’t I think of such a beautiful name?!Next time I have a daughter, I will be named Lin Yilian!Wonderful, so wonderful!

He said without any restraint, Yilian blushed and said embarrassedly: Since your name is Lin San, then I will call you Brother San!Brother San, we are not ferrying

Brother San?The muscles on his face immediately twitched: Yilian, can you remove the word "A"?I really can’t stand the three words “Ah San”!

Yilian looked at him in confusion: Then I will call you Brother Alin.Brother Alin, my father and I are not a ferryman. We are Miao doctors in the village. Today we went up the mountain to collect herbs and met you on the way back!

As she spoke, the bamboo tray had already reached the center of the river, and the rapids washed away, and the boat seemed to be falling leaves floating with the wind, pounding violently.

Gao Qiao and Si De were dizzy, their faces were pale, and their bodies were already slid on the boat.

Buyi's father supported the oars with both hands and shouted: Yilian, get the rope!

Lin Wanrong reacted faster. Before the girl could understand, she had already snatched the rope from the bow of the boat, staggered to the other side of the bamboo tray, and tried her best to tie the rope.

Gao Kesi De and his two men took the opportunity to hold the rope tightly before their bodies could stabilize!

Several big waves came, and the hull rose and fell from time to time, sometimes in the air, sometimes in the bottom of the valley!

Yilian and his daughter held bamboo hangs and slapped the waves rapidly, trying their best to maintain the balance of the boat, and sweat beads rolled down their foreheads.

Lin Wanrong grew up by the lake since childhood and was well-behaved. He hurriedly took a boat oar next to him and slapped the waves with him.

I don’t know how long it took to bumpy, but the boat finally passed through the waves. Although it was still a little ups and downs, it was hundreds and thousands of times stronger than before.

The two old Gao Side were soaked in their clothes, hugging each other tightly, panting violently.

Buyi’s father gave Lin Wanrong a thumbs up and praised: Huajialang, good looks!

Lin Wanrong smiled and sat on the boat, panting.The intersection of the Jinsha River, Minjiang River, and Yangtze River is indeed thrilling!

Yilian wiped the water droplets on her face and sat next to him with a smile: Brother Alin, I didn’t expect that your water quality is so good and the paddles are also good. Other Hua family members do not have the ability to do this, and even my father praises you!

That's it!Lin Wanrong took two breaths and revealed his true colors, and said proudly: I have a nickname that is known to me as the big tiger on land and the small white dragon in the river. How could I get a false reputation?!

Yilian is a Miao girl with a straightforward and cute personality. She looked at him in confusion and said seriously: Brother Alin, you are so black, it is wrong to call Xiaobailong. It is almost the same as calling Xiaoheilong and Xiaowulong!

Lin Wanrong's cheeks shook, and he stammered while gritting his teeth and making a few embarrassing words!Lao Gao had just recovered, but he laughed so hard that he broke the ball!

Yilian, I see that the road is broken on the mountain. How do people cross the river normally?If we can't cross the river, wouldn't our Xuzhou Prefecture be isolated from the outside world?!The hardships on the river made Lin Wanrong remember it deeply, and he hurriedly seized the time to ask.

The girl shook her head: There are no such great storms in normal times. My father and I can easily spend it. Today is because of you too many, which makes me feel a little trouble!Besides, we Miao people rarely cross the river, so the prefect is not allowed!If someone comes in outside, the men must be kind enough to send a high-ranking official boat to pick them up!

Is the prefect the court?

Lin Wanrong snorted. In the Sichuan and Shu mansion, King Cheng had many disciples. In the past, King Cheng threatened the lives of the Miao people and forced An Biru to seduce Lin San!

It was also since that night that Sister An turned back to Miao Village in sadness, and Lin Wanrong naturally still remembered it fresh!

Now that I heard Yilian mention the prefect, she was angry and said: Yilian and Buyi Dad, I see you, and it seems that you have some resentment towards our Hua family. Is anyone bullying you?!

Buyi shook her head and said nothing.Yilian said lightly: Dad, Brother Alin helped us paddle over the oars. He doesn't look like a bad person. He shouldn't sue the official, oh?!

If I help you paddle, will you be a bad guy?This girl is so cute. Lin Wanrong laughed and was about to speak, but she felt that her body had weighed down and the boat had already docked!
