“Rumble…”
At this time, there was a faint thunder in the sky. Ji Yuan looked up. In addition to clearly seeing lightning in the distance, he could also vaguely see that the sky was full of clouds. It should rain soon.
“Sunny days are good, raining is even better, a good sign!”
After coming to this world, perhaps because of the relationship between eyes and hearing, Ji Yuan’s favorite weather became rainy days. To be more precise, it is best to have moderate rainfall, not too light. Not too big.
No matter how normal Ji Yuan’s actions are to outsiders, they cannot hide the fact that Ji Yuan’s own eyesight is bad. Only on rainy days can the world become extra clear in Ji Yuan’s mind.
After taking the willow branches picked by Yin Qing yesterday, briefly washing himself, putting on an oil-paper umbrella, Ji Yuan went out to the street.
Walking on the streets of Tienniufang, the fragrance of jujube flowers in the past has disappeared. Maybe the neighbors of Tienniufang will feel something is wrong after getting up today, but they can’t tell what is wrong. Maybe those who are more alert can suddenly think of it. The scent is gone.
But at least Ji Yuan has not seen any villagers he met ask him about the fragrance of flowers.
After leaving Tianniufang, we just arrived on the street.
The heavy rain fell.
Ji Yuan happened to hold the umbrella above his head two seconds before the rain fell. Hearing the raindrops falling on three sides of the street and even on the pedestrians and street dogs who were caught off guard, he couldn’t help but smile knowingly.
At this moment, Ning’an County within hearing range completely “lived” in Ji Yuan’s heart!
After living in Anxiaoge for several months, there were not many rainy days. On the contrary, now that I was about to leave, I was close to Egzhong, and it was the rainy season of Huangmei.
If there are really meticulous people who can observe Ji Yuan walking in the rain at this moment, he will find that even if the umbrella is difficult to see the lower body, Ji Yuan is still not wet or wet.
“Mr. Ji~~~~ Do you want to eat braised noodles today? There is beef offal, which is rare!!!”
Passing by the Sun Ji Noodle Stall, Old Man Sun shouted to Ji Yuan who was holding an umbrella under the awning. Ji Yuan turned around and could vaguely see many diners and passers-by taking shelter from the rain.
“No, I have to go to the Chenghuang Temple if I have something to do!”
“Okay, then walk slowly. Do you want me to leave you a piece of offal?”
“No need!”
Ji Yuan politely refused and walked towards the Chenghuang Temple.
Due to the rain, the number of people on the street dropped sharply, and the same happened at the Chenghuang Temple in Miaosifang. When I walked into the temple, I bought sandalwood from the vendor who moved to the front hall, just like a common person praying for blessings. The main hall offered three sticks of incense to the county god.
As soon as the incense was put in, Ji Yuan bowed slightly to the statue of the City God, then left the temple and headed towards the outer building of the temple opposite.
Stepping into the gate of the outer building of the temple, it was a busy scene inside. After all, many people came in to take shelter from the rain. Those who had spare money bought a pot of tea, and many went up to the second floor to listen to books and join in the fun.
“Hey, it’s Mr. Ji!! Please come in, please come in. Are you still packing pastries today?”
A store clerk who knew Ji Yuan warmly came over to entertain him.
“No, there is still a place on the third floor. Prepare to eat something there. Friends will come over!”
“Okay, okay, come with me, there are many empty seats on the third floor!”
Beside the window railing on the third floor, after Ji Yuan sat down, a table of signature cakes from the temple’s outer building and a pot of Niokuishan camellia just picked this spring were quickly served. It was fast without cooking.
In just a few minutes, an old man in black robes went up to the third floor and bowed to Ji Yuan from a distance. Ji Yuan quickly stood up and returned the salute.
“Mr. Ji, how are you doing recently?”
After Ji Yuan arrived in Ning’an County, except for the first time, he only met the Old City God once, and this time was the third time, but there was no restraint between the two parties.
“Hello, Mr. Song! Thanks to you, Ji is living a very comfortable life!”
The two of them sat down and talked about their fate without talking nonsense.
“Ji came here to say goodbye to Mr. Song. He had something to do and was preparing to visit other states in Beppu. He just wanted to ask Mr. Song for something.”
The old city **** picked up a piece of rice cake, brought it to his mouth and smelled it. He only bit off a small corner and tasted it in his mouth. A burst of white air flew out of the remaining half and went into his mouth. He put the part back in his hand. On the plate.
“Mr. Ji said it bluntly, Song will never refuse if he can help.”
“Well, Mr. Song sent me several messengers to give me bamboo slips, which helped me a lot. You also know that I have difficulty with my eyesight, so I hope to ask Mr. Song for a map that can roughly engrave Dazhen and its surroundings. Pictured.”
Ji Yuan said this, which is tantamount to asking for a copy of the engraving.
“It’s easy to say. The martial arts judge will personally supervise this matter tonight. I wonder how small the engravings can be discerned by Mr. Ji?”
“As long as the order is clear, every detail can be distinguished!”
The City God finished tasting the second piece of pastry and looked at Ji Yuan intently.
“Okay, I will definitely satisfy Mr. Ji!”
Conversation between smart people is easy. After the serious business is finished, the two chat while eating, and then disperse after the food on the table is finished.
After the two of them paid and left, a shop assistant came upstairs to clean the table.
I walked to the table with brisk steps and saw that more than half of the pastries were still on the table, and they looked very complete.
“This…”
The store clerk looked around and saw that no one was paying attention. He smiled and grabbed a piece and stuffed it into his mouth to chew.
“Bah bah…the dry powder is still very astringent…which master in this building made it?”
Choose a few more pieces to try.
“Bah, bah, bah, bah…that’s so **** unreasonable!!”
. . .
The jujube tree in Ju’an Xiaoge was bearing fruit overnight, which really shocked Yin Zhaoxian’s family.
What’s more, the Yin family’s father and son only heard Ji Yuan lamenting that he couldn’t eat this year’s dates yesterday. The next day, they were fruitful, and the mystery was enough to amaze ordinary people for a lifetime.
The jujubes in the courtyard are plump and attractive in color. When you taste them, your mouth will be full of saliva, and when you swallow them, you will be left with a fragrant aroma on your lips and teeth.
However, Ji Yuan only distributed some dates to the Yin family for the time being, and did not divide them in the workshop, so as to avoid everyone’s surprise.
I thought I would receive the city god’s engraving in one night, but I didn’t expect to wait for three days.
When Ji Yuan got it, he discovered that it was three pieces of jet-black wood strips three fingers wide and two palms long, threaded together by thin threads, with small buckles at the top and bottom. When stacked, they formed a paperweight of good size. , and unfolded and put together, it is a carved map.
The mountains, rivers and lakes in the picture are meticulously detailed, and the textures are even the slightest but not messy. There are also place names in many places. Overall, it is better than Ji Yuan expected!
On the night of the third day, Ji Yuan thought about it and felt that he still had to leave something for the Yin family. He didn’t know how long he would be out.
So, a few months after coming to this world, I picked up the brush for the second time.
“Then I’m going to trick someone, and this time I’m going to be a young man!”
In the blink of an eye, the spiritual energy of the body is poured into the mind, and the spiritual energy of the surroundings is slowly gathering. The book is just a piece of rice paper, both a letter and a copybook. There are not many words, but it takes Ji Yuan most of the night to write!
In the early morning of the second day in the Yin family courtyard, when Yin Qing was the first to open the door and was about to run out, he found a letter falling from the crack of the door.
The letter on the front reads: “Mr. Yin’s personal greetings are based on fate.”
“Dad!!! Mr. Ji left a letter on the door!!!”
“Here it comes!!!”
Yin Zhaoxian’s voice came from inside the house. He was still arranging his clothes when he arrived in front of the door, and then frowned and took the letter from Yin Qing. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com
‘If you leave a message, then Mr. Ji may have left without saying goodbye? ’
Looking at the words on the envelope, a “good word” exclamation sounded in my heart.
He then carefully opened the letter, took out the folded rice paper and unfolded it. The contents of the letter came into view, and he also saw that Ji Yuan addressed him with a special title for the first time.
“Gift to Yin Zhaoxian
I got married with you after Grain Rain, and temporarily separated before Mangzhong. I lived in a small pavilion, and you were the only friend in the county;
Recalling the past, when we first met Shang Jueqian at the table, he laughed and said that Brother Yin was lonely;
However, although you are only a master from one county, you are worthy of the writings of the sages. You know the principles and are good at learning, you are good at learning and you can modify them, you learn and practice from time to time, and you encourage yourself to strengthen yourself;
The gentleman wants to know the right way to get it, and the common people are always happy without disturbing others. Who is it? Ning’an Yin Zhaoxian;
It’s a pity that the sky is not bright and the moon is always clear, the banquet is not going away without the earth, and the stars are hanging in the sky, so don’t blame me;
Walking at night without saying goodbye, giving one as a gift before leaving, sitting across from each other and playing chess again, we will see each other again;
I hope you will teach and educate people in detail, and your contribution to the country will not take a moment, and your mind will be as good as before, from beginning to end;
In the future, he will write books and biographies, benefit hundreds of children, educate all peoples in the world, and all great Confucians of the generation can look forward to it;
At that time, you can travel around the mountains and rivers, step on the heaven and earth, remain calm despite the stormy waves, move calmly even on the waves, have thousands of ink in your belly, and have righteousness in your chest! ”
When Yin Zhaoxian read the last word, he felt his scalp was slightly numb, and the muscles in his arms and legs were stretched and still trembling uncontrollably.
Take a deep breath, face the sky outside the door, raise your chest, put your hands behind your back, and have infinite ambition brewing in your heart!
. . .
On the official road dozens of miles outside Ning’an County, Ji Yuan raised his right hand and looked at it with a confused expression. The shadow of a chess piece flashed away.
“Uh…what…is going on?”
