The sun shone on the turquoise water that was blown slowly by the warm south wind, making the waves sparkle and dazzling. The ship slowly started moving, heading north. Although it was said that he was promoted to be a filial piety, he went to Beijing to test.

But Shu Yan couldn't express happiness in his heart, let alone any excitement. He looked at the familiar scenes on both sides of the Ru River: his home, wheat fields, mulberry gardens,

The willow trees, grassland, watersheds, towering Western Mountains, and Ruyin City in the distance gradually blurred until they slowly faded out of his sight. Shu Yan felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart, not only the sadness of separation, but also the sadness of separation.

There is a sense of fear, just like the fear of all his relatives and loved ones leaving him - he is afraid of losing his hometown.

The big ship shattered the waves of light, and as it traveled further and further, the scenery on both sides became increasingly unfamiliar. The passenger ship would stop at a ferry every section of the way for tourists to get on and off. At this time, the ship stopped at a ferry again.

Although it’s not too far from Shujiazhuang,

It was far away, but Shu Yan couldn't name them. Some people had already got off the boat. Shu Yan took out a gourd from his bag and leaned forward to get water from the river. After filling the gourd with water, he opened the package containing peony flowers.

Use a gourd to slowly pour some water on it.

At this time, all the tourists who wanted to leave the ship had already disembarked, and those who wanted to board the ship swarmed in. In the crowd, there were two men in black shirts holding horses, and they were saying something to a young man in a white robe with a round collar.

The two men in black shirts had their hair disheveled and their skirts were open to the left. They were obviously not Chinese from the Central Plains but dressed as barbarians. The two barbarians stopped the young man from boarding the ship, but they did not dare to force him.

He obviously looked a little afraid of the boy.

"Young... Young Master, stop playing around. You have been out for a year. It would be serious if something happens to you. Come back with us quickly!"

The young man showed a very impatient look and said: "Are you annoyed? I walked all the way east from Xiqiang to here, and you chased me all the way here! Where is the danger? Who wants you to follow! You go back quickly,

I'll go back when I've had enough fun." After the young man finished speaking, he pushed the two barbarians aside, led a bay-red horse straight onto the boat, and came to Shu Yan's side.

Shu Yan ignored it and continued to scoop water from the river with a gourd, then opened the package of orchid grass and watered the flowers. Everyone in the boat looked at Shu Yan's behavior and felt strange, but no one spoke.

The boy who was riding the horse was also looking at Shu Yan, feeling it was funny, and couldn't help asking: "Brother, are you going to Luoyang too?"

Shu Yan said: "Yes." After speaking, he looked up at the young man. The young man was about the same age as himself. He was wearing a white robe. There was a large butterfly embroidered on the front and back of the white robe, and there were many embroidered flowers around the big butterfly.

There are young butterflies, colorful and colorful, and the wind blows on the clothes. These butterflies are vivid and lifelike. They are tied around the waist with a wide red silk belt. The tail of the belt hangs on the right side. There is a flute hanging on it. On the left side, there is a flute hanging on the waist.

a sword

.His hair is neither let down like the Hu people, nor tied up like the Chinese people. Instead, it is gathered together and tied directly on the top of the head with a two or three inch long semi-cylindrical crystal green jade tube hairpin.

on, there

A fist high, with the ends of her hair hanging down on the back of her head. Her skin is delicate and fair with some blush, her nose bridge is high, her eyes are slightly sunken, her black eyes are a little different, bright and bright, but they are a little softer and lack some.

Masculinity.

"If I guess correctly, these two flowers of yours are very common orchids and peonies, right?"

"yes."

"Since these are two very ordinary flowers, why did you bring them all the way to Luoyang? Luoyang is a famous flower capital in the world. What kind of flowers are there?"

Shu Yan thought to himself: People say that when you are away from home, it is better to do less than to do more, but why is this person so familiar, heartless, and nosy?

"Really?" Shu Yan just replied politely.

But the young man thought that he really didn't know, and thought to himself, this guy is really a bumpkin, he has never been out, and he doesn't even know this.

"Of course, when we get to Luoyang, I will give you a few plants."

At this time, the boat had already sailed. The young man in white smiled on the shore and stuck out his tongue. The two men in black just looked at it, anxious, but there was nothing they could do.

The passenger ship sailed away from the shore and rowed towards the middle of the river. When the rudder was turned, the ship's hull inevitably shook. The bay-red horse was obviously not used to riding in a boat. When it was frightened, it could not stand steadily and moved around with its hooves. Shu Yan had just watered the pot of orchids.

After getting the water, I was about to wrap it up when I suddenly saw the horse's left front hoof lifting.

He got up and was about to land on the pot of orchid grass. Shu Yan quickly grabbed the horse's hoof with his right hand. The horse's hoof couldn't fall. Its other front hoof panicked and stepped towards another pot of peony.

, Shu Yan became anxious and quickly caught the right hoof with his left hand.

The young man was shocked when he saw it: Although my horse is not fully grown yet, it weighs eight hundred kilograms anyway. Even though the horse is leaning back and the weight is more on the hind hooves, the weight of the two front hooves alone is still too much.

He must weigh three hundred kilograms. This man is about my age, elegant and

He looks like a scholar, but he is so strong that he can catch the horse's front hooves! How did he know that although Shu Yan looks like a scholar, in addition to studying, he is also a small farmer and a farmer.

A small businessman, he has been exercising his body since he was a child.

When he was strong, he had recently practiced archery with Eunuch Tang, and his strength had increased a lot when he pulled the hard bow. The young man was just stunned, but Shu Yan couldn't bear it anymore and shouted: "Help me!"

Take the flowers away!" The young man then remembered and grabbed a flower with one hand.

I was about to put the potted flowers aside when I suddenly remembered what I just said and said to Shu Yan: "Brother, I told you, there are so many of these two kinds of flowers in Luoyang. You traveled a long distance with these two potted flowers."

It weighs so much, why not throw it away and I will buy it for you in Luoyang."

As he spoke, he flicked his left hand and threw the pot of peonies into the river with a "pop" sound. Then, he raised his right hand and wanted to throw the pot of orchids into the river. Seeing this, Shu Yan was so anxious that he threw away the horse's hooves with both hands.

He rushed forward with a lunge, pushed the young man with his left hand, and pushed the young man staggering. Then he snatched the pot of orchid from the young man's hand with his right hand. The young man was so angry when he pushed him that he just staggered.

He wanted to get angry, but he saw Shu Yan made an astonishing move: he took off his robe and wooden clogs in an instant, jumped into the river to save the peony plant. Everyone in the boat was stunned, and they all held the boat high.

Looking down, the young man hurriedly shouted to the boatman: "Stop the boat quickly, someone is jumping into the water." The boat stopped immediately, but due to inertia, it still moved forward several feet.

When the young man saw that Shu Yan had been submerged in the water and there was no movement for a long time, he thought he was drowning and shouted desperately to the people on the boat: "Save people quickly, boatman, save people quickly!"

Although the boat stopped, the boatmen just lay on the side of the boat and watched, but no one went into the water to save the people. The young man screamed and no one answered him. In desperation, he jumped into the river to save the people.

Shu Yan. Everyone saw that this young man was agile and his posture when he fell into the water was even more beautiful. Who knew that he couldn't swim at all? His diving posture was very beautiful, but when he got into the water, he only had soup.

People looked into the water, and after a while, Shu Yan emerged from the water, holding the boy in his right hand and holding the peony plant in his left hand. Shu Yan grew up by the river and was familiar with the water. He really caught the peony plant.

But it’s just the peony itself. That peony

The medicine sank to the bottom of the water with the weight of the soil. The soil around the flower roots was soaked in water and all disappeared with the water. Shu Yan was about to come up with the peony when suddenly a person hit him on top of his head, and his head hit him.

There was a bang on Shu Yan's head.

Shu Yan was caught off guard, his head was buzzing, and he drank a big mouthful of soup. If Shu Yan hadn't had good water properties, he would have drowned in just this one blow. He quickly calmed down, adjusted his breathing, and found that the man was only drinking soup.

, couldn’t even call for help. He rushed

He hurriedly pushed the man out of the water and found that the man was the young man who threw the flower. The flower was broken after all the tossing, and the rescue was in vain. Shu Yan was so angry that he threw the flower into the river and held it in his arms.

The teenagers swam to the side of the boat, and the boatman pulled them out.

Shu Yan jumped on the boat. He was originally very angry and wanted to vent to the young man, but when he saw that the young man had a round stomach after drinking water, his mouth was open and he could not speak, he could not bear to get angry. He hurriedly borrowed a drink from the boatman.

He pushed the pot over and helped the boy lie down on the pot with the water empty. He shook his head and shook out the water from his ears.

He took off his underwear again, put on his robe, and squatted next to the young man. At this time, the young man was spitting out water one after another, and Shu Yan even pulled out a piece of green moss from his nose.

The young man gradually regained his energy, sat up, and looked at Shu Yan's wet appearance with strange eyes, feeling that it was both annoying and a little cute.

"You idiot, I have traveled so far, and I have never seen anyone as stupid as you! Carrying two pots of flowers thousands of miles away, don't even mention it, cough cough." As he said this, another water gushes out from his stomach.

"You jumped into the water to save this flower, you - you really have something wrong with your head."

"I'm an idiot, huh, I can swim after all, but what about you? Why did you jump in to drink the soup?"

"You——, I told you, when we get to Luoyang, I will give you as many flowers as you want!"

"I -" Shu Yan was about to explain, but he swallowed his words again. At this time, the sun was already setting in the west, and he saw that the young man was soaked all over, and was shivering due to the wind blowing on him.

"Take off the wet robe quickly and change into a new one." After Shu Yan said this, he reached out to help him take off his clothes.

"Don't move!" The young man pushed Shu Yan's hand away reflexively, "I... don't need to."

"You said I was dumb, but I think you are even dumber. It's just mid-spring now, and the sun is going to set soon. If you don't change your wet clothes, you'll get sick from the cold."

"I...I'm not used to changing clothes in front of others!" The young man looked a little embarrassed and lowered his head, completely losing the pride he had when he first boarded the ship.

Shu Yan looked at him and felt that he was irritating, cute, and a little cute at the same time. "You are a big man who often travels around the world, but you are so shy!" After saying that, he said to the boatman, "Boatman, please lend me a room."

Cang, let this brother change his clothes."

The boatman agreed and took the young man to change clothes. Shu Yan was here to take care of the horses and luggage of the two people. After a while, the young man came out, still wearing a bunch of high hair and a white robe. But the robe was not embroidered with butterflies.

, but a lot of fish, also a big fish in front and behind, surrounded by many small fish. He sat side by side next to Shu Yan and asked: "I haven't asked my brother yet, what do you call me?"

"I'm Shu Yan." Shu Yan replied, looking at his attire and asked, "This robe is interesting. Why do you like wearing white robes so much?"

"Why, can't it be done?"

"Of course you can. It's just that the collar of your robe is a bit special. It doesn't open to the left like the Hu people do, nor does it open to the right like the Central Plains people."

The young man smiled: "People from the Central Plains, barbarians, why, I am neutral!"

Shu Yan asked strangely: "How do you say this?"

"Humph, I don't want to say it!"

"Not only are you wearing neutral robes, but your hair is also neutral! Are you a Central Plains person or a Hu person?"

The young man shook his hair and said, "What does it matter?"

"No, I'm just asking." Seeing that the other party didn't want to say anything, Shu Yan stopped asking, and instead stared into the distance in silence. After a long time, the young man saw that Shu Yan stopped talking, and couldn't help but say, "Brother Shu,

I want to ask you, why did you insist on saving that potted flower?"

"You still mention that potted flower, it's all because of you!"

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you cared so much..." The young man lowered his head, pouted, and continued to ask, "Why on earth?"

Shu Yan looked at the man who destroyed the flowers Zhixin gave him with his own hands. He was angry at first, but then he thought of the man who foolishly jumped into the water to save himself. The look of embarrassment really made him feel that he was again

Innocent, straightforward and kind, he couldn't help but lose half of his anger, and just said lightly: "Humph, I don't want to say it either!"
