[Thunderbolt] Pindao just wants to be a quiet Taoist priest

Chapter 17

After all, the scenery of West Lake in mid-June is not the same as the four o'clock.

Although there is no West Lake in the difficult situation, Qinghu Lake located in Nanwulin is very similar to West Lake in Liu Zhaojun's view.

The sparkling lake water, the picturesque boats moored in the middle of the lake, the boats are singing and dancing endlessly, the graceful dancing postures, and the beautiful singing voice, can't help but remind people of the song "When will the West Lake dance and dance stop. The warm wind blows the tourists away. Drunk, straight to Hangzhou as Bianzhou!".

The weeping willows by the embankment have long since stopped flying catkins at this time, but it is the time when the willow leaves are most luxuriant.Sitting under the tall willow tree, the lake breeze is gentle, but you don't feel the heat of summer, it's cool and comfortable, it's really enjoyable.

The lotus leaves are infinite, and the lotus flowers are different.

Mr. Liuzhao and Jianzi Xianji were lying under the willow tree beside Qinghu Lake. The sun was out of the way and the lake breeze was cool. It was really relaxing.There is nothing more enjoyable than watching the lotus blooming on the lake, the dragonfly touching the water, and the koi jumping.The beautiful scenery missed last year will no longer be missed this year.

Jianzi Xianji stretched Erlang's legs, lay with his arms on his pillow under the shade of a tree, took a breath, the air current picked up the white hair in front of him, and sighed: "If it wasn't for Mo Liujian's pursuit, I still feel The beauty of ordinary life cannot be seen. Look at the beautiful scenery, look at the warm sun, this is the true meaning of life."

Mr. Liu Zhao lay on the branch of a thick willow tree, glanced at the trace of the sword fairy under the tree, and unceremoniously revealed his truth: "For you, as long as you have something to eat and drink every day, you will be very happy. .”

"That's not what it said. If you were hunted down every day, would you be happy today?"

"Stop! Stop! Don't say any more! I don't want to think about those three months!" Mr. Liu Zhao fell directly from the tree, "Go, I heard that Xiangxuefang is the signature restaurant of Qinghu. Let's go to the lake to enjoy singing and dancing, eat Feast."

"Let's go." Jianzi Xianji strongly agreed, and the two flew directly to the huge painting boat in the center of the lake.That painting boat is the most famous on Qinghu Lake, not only the food is unique, but also the singing and dancing is one of the best, if not for Mr. Liuzhao, a local tyrant, he would not be able to get there.

Before evening, lights were already lit on the painting boat, and the palace lanterns led the way, resplendent and resplendent. This Xiangxuefang was transformed from a huge ship. The wood carvings on the ship were exquisite, and the fragrance of flowers was pleasant. Everywhere was properly arranged. It must be a dignitary or a benefactor. To enter, there is no capital to enter.There are endless singing and dancing every day, and it is no problem to make money every day.

"Two Taoist priests, is it the hall on the first floor or the Yage upstairs?" Xiao Er was extremely discerning, seeing the two of them floating up the lake, he did not ignore them at all because they were wearing Taoist robes, but went up to meet them , the smile is just right, neither too cold nor too obsequious.

"The third floor, please be quiet." Mr. Liu Zhao directly threw a piece of broken silver as a reward, not much, but not a lot, but definitely enough to make Jianzi Xianji jealous.

"Two priests, please come here." Taking the money without being humble or overbearing, the little second led the two of them up to the third floor, and opened a door named "Tingxue".

Incense burners are burning in the Accord, seasonal flowers are placed in vases and placed everywhere in the room, and famous paintings are hung on the walls. same feeling.

"The banquet at the table must be in accordance with the season." Mr. Liu Zhao lifted up his clothes and sat in front of the table. He turned his head and looked through the huge wooden window. He could just see the stage directly under the center of the ship. , and you can look out from the porthole and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Qinghu Lake.

"Okay, please wait for a while." Xiaoer quickly stepped back, and served some refreshing side dishes in a short while, and then served authentic dishes one after another. The timing was just right and would never make guests wait for the dishes , and will not let the dishes cover the table.

"Tsk, rich people really enjoy it." Jianzi Xianji was in a great mood after eating the lotus seed soup he had been thinking about, seeing the exquisiteness of everything here, he couldn't help admiring sourly.

"Of course, the ten gold coins must be worth the fare. Otherwise, would anyone come? Others are not being taken advantage of." Mr. Liuzhao is also very satisfied with the dishes, and plans to come here to book a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in a few days , At this time, he took a sip of sake, but unfortunately, no matter in his past or present life, he was not very good at drinking, and he was very easy to get drunk.

"Ten gold?" Jianzi Xianji was startled, and almost spat out the soup in his mouth, "It's so expensive! Xuanjun, how much money do you have? This is enough for an ordinary family to consume for a lifetime."

"Not much, just enough for my enjoyment, but I can't squander it at will." A piece of lotus-shaped dessert is sandwiched, and the petals are lifelike. It is simply a refined handicraft, which makes people unable to bear to eat.

"It's almost Qixi Festival." After taking a look at the song and dance, Liu Zhaojun was not interested in the drama about the love between a man and a woman, separated by two places and finally getting married.How can there be so many gods and couples in the world, the perfect couples, most of them are separated from each other, let alone in a difficult situation, few of them who fall in love can survive?According to what I saw, only Mr. Butterfly and Gongsunyue, Ji Wuzong and Yu Wan'er were married, and the rest, hehehehe, only one death is considered a kindness of the screenwriter.

Hearing this, Jianzi Xianji came to gossip: "Xuan Jun, if you want to get married, what kind of Taoist couple will you choose?"

"Eating can't stop your mouth and curiosity?" Mr. Liu Zhao didn't expect that Jianzi Xianji would not stop, and even gossiped about himself.

"Well, anyway, just ask."

"What about you?"

"For me, I want to find someone who is rich, elegant and interesting, and can follow my ideas." Jianzi Xianji thought about it carefully, "Anyway, I will be a Taoist priest in my life, I don't want to Get married and support your family.”

"Haha, you are really in trouble with money." Mr. Liu Zhao smiled, "What do I want love for? Love affects the speed of my sword. If you really want to find someone who can not affect my sword." .”

Jianzi Xianji was speechless: "You want to live with the sword for the rest of your life. Is Qingtian sword veins like this?"

"I don't know, anyway, I'm right." Mr. Liu Zhao sincerely felt that practicing sword is worse than falling in love, and practicing sword is worse than being in love. If you want to live well in a difficult situation, you should practice sword.

"Use your words, pay attention to orphans."

"I accept your good words." Picking up the teacup, Mr. Liu Zhao smiled slightly and said nothing more.

After dinner, the sunset is about to set completely. The golden sunset is reflected on the lake, coated with gold powder, and the whole world is golden and warmer.

The two of them headed towards the lake shore in a small boat to see off guests. On the boat to receive guests stood a beautiful woman in pink, with a white gauze covering her face and holding a pipa in her arms. Hengbo, with a touch of sadness.Soon, the two boats passed by.

"A person with a story." Mr. Liu Zhao just glanced at it and commented, but he didn't want to care.With so many things in the world, can you take care of yourself?It's best to take care of yourself.

Jianzi Xianji sighed in admiration: "Peerless beauty."

"You two don't know, but she is the most famous girl holding piano in Xiangxuefang. Tonight is her performance on the boat. You two left early." Hearing what the two guests said, the boatman introduced with a smile.

"Oh? Is she called Baoqin Girl? What's her name?" Jianzi Xianji asked curiously.

"She is the lucky tree of Xiangxuefang. She was bought by Xiangxuefang since she was a child. She is worth tens of thousands of dollars. She has no name. She is called Baoqin girl, and she is usually called Qiuji if she is more polite." The boatman slowly shook his oar. , while saying.

"Qiu Ji? Is it because her eyes are like autumn water?" Jianzi Xianji recalled.

"Yes."

"Jianzi, you are too curious." Mr. Liu Zhao reminded aloud that too much curiosity will always cause many things.

"Hey, how can you say that? I don't know if Qiuji can leave Xiangxuefang to live. I can see that she is tired of the current life and full of longing for freedom." Jianzi Xianji asked again.

"The guest was joking. The girl holding the piano is from Xiangxuefang, and her death is the ghost of Xiangxuefang. It's not that no one wants to redeem her, but who is willing to give out gold ten thousand taels to redeem a singer?" The boatman laughed, after all The money didn't come from the wind. It's not worth it to redeem a singer.With this money, I can marry a few more beautiful concubines.

"Golden ten thousand taels?" Jianzi Xianji had never seen so much gold in his life, and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Isn't it? This is still an underestimation. Qiuji's performance in one night can make a profit of tens of thousands of taels of silver for Xiangxuefang. Is it possible that Xiangxuefang will let her redeem herself?" On the pier, "Guests please pay attention to your steps."

Jianzi Xianji looked at the painting boat in the center of the lake from a distance, and could see that the boat of the girl holding the qin had just arrived.

"Jianzi, let's go, we have to find a place to stay, otherwise it will be too late." How could Mr. Liu Zhao not see Jianzi Xianji's pity for the girl holding the piano?But things in the world are like this, and they don't have the ability to save such an expensive woman, so it's better not to think about it, and not to understand it.He has never been a saint, nor can he be a saint. Mr. Liu Zhao can only do his best to protect the people around him.

Jianzi Xianji turned around and shook his head: "Let's go."

Along the way, Jianzi Xianji was unusually silent, Mr. Liuzhao didn't say much, until the two of them lived in a small garden by the lake, after each of them washed up, they came to the courtyard to view the scenery by the lake.

The courtyard they found had an excellent view, surrounded by willow trees, chirping cicadas, and occasional frogs, and it happened to be possible to see the dimly lit Xiangxuefang in the center of the lake.

"Xuanjun, how many people in the world can't help themselves?"

"A lot, too many to count. It can be said that everyone in the world can't help themselves." Liu Zhaojun poured two cups of tea, pushed one cup to Jianzi Xianji, and picked up the cup by himself, "Look, we have a meal today. Meals only cost more than a dozen taels of gold, which is money that most ordinary people will not be able to earn in their lifetime; this courtyard is rented for a month. There are too many people in this world who are busy all their lives. In fact, they are free, but in fact, they are not forced by life to earn money to support their families? Who is really free? Besides, the girl holding the piano you saw today, although she is not free in her status, she eats The degree of wearability is beyond the reach of ordinary people, and I don’t even dare to think about it. Is Xiangxuefang a philanthropist? Is she supporting her for nothing? She must give something in return. Besides..."

Mr. Liuzhao took a sip of tea and paused: "In my opinion, she has no martial arts. With her beauty and talent, and no strength to rely on, so what if she redeems herself? She doesn't have the ability to live alone, especially in a poor life." I advise you not to worry too much, maybe this kind of life is the most suitable and stable for her."

"You're right." Jianzi Xianji thought about it for a while, sighed, drank the tea in the cup in one gulp, and stopped struggling, "I don't know what kind of life is suitable for her, so let's not interfere .I want to be a generation of heroes in the future, to uphold justice, save the world and save the people. It is best to have two or three confidants and live a leisurely life. This is the best."

"Come on, you are a Taoist priest, practice the Tao honestly."

Will Jianzi make trouble?
