Horses are running late on the ancient road in Chang'an, and cicadas are neighing in the tall willows. The birds are outside at sunset, and the autumn wind is on the plains. My eyes are broken and hanging for four days.
When Guiyun disappears without a trace, where is the early stage? He is unfamiliar with life, drunk and desolate, unlike when he was young.

At this time, a heavy snowfall came, suddenly turning Xi'an into Chang'an.
Everyone reined up their horses and stood on Leyouyuan, overlooking this great and spectacular capital city. Chang'an was like a picture scroll, slowly unfolding.
In the snowflakes, the majestic Chang'an City stands quietly on the bank of the Wei River. The archery tower is tall and majestic, and it is magnificent, like the gods guarding Chang'an. It is solemn and solemn, looking down on the world. The city walls made of granite and blue bricks are simple and thick.
, like a red cliff, standing thousands of feet tall, steep and solid. You can only look up, but don't offend.
The entire capital is covered in silver and frozen for thousands of miles. In the distance, the Tai Chi Palace and the Daming Palace, with their red walls, gold tiles, and carved beams and painted buildings, stand out in the snow. They shine like palaces in the sky, demarcating the sky and the
The boundaries of the mortal world remind each worshiper of the insignificance and humbleness.
This is Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty and the center of the world! Unique and unparalleled, it is the pride of every Tang Dynasty person and the holy land of every Tang Dynasty person!
Recalling the heyday of Kaiyuan in the past, there were still thousands of families in the small town.
The rice is dripping with fat and the corn is white, and both the public and private warehouses are abundant.
There are no jackals or tigers on the roads of Kyushu, and the sunrise is auspicious for a long journey.
Qi Wan and Lu's carriages and carriages are moving in shifts, and the men plowing the fields and the women mulching trees keep up with each other.
The saint in the palace plays Yunmen, and all the friends in the world are glued together.
There has been no disaster for more than a hundred years, and my uncle, Sun Liyue, Xiao Helu.

Poetry as proof:
Chang'an Avenue is narrow and sloping, with green oxen and white horses and seven fragrant carriages. Jade chariots cross the main hall, and golden whips come one after another to the Hou family.
The dragon carries the treasure in its head to catch the morning sun, the phoenix spits out its tassels and brings the sunset. A hundred feet of hairsprings compete around the tree, and a group of delicate birds sing together.
There are bees playing with butterflies on the side of thousands of doors, green trees and silver terraces of thousands of colors. The windows along the road are decorated with acacia, and the two bridges are connected with hanging phoenix wings.
Everyone walked along Zhuque Street, and soon they saw the gold-lettered signboard of "Bashu Guild Hall" in Chongrenfang. Most of the Bashu descendants stayed here when they arrived in Chang'an. The "Bashu Guild Hall" has more than a hundred guest rooms, led by Sichuan disciples.
Responsible for taking care of it.
Shopkeeper Huang had already received the letter from Fei Ge and had arranged everything two days in advance. When they entered the alley, he warmly welcomed them.
"Dear guests, you have worked hard all the way. The food and hot water are prepared. Let's have a hot meal first, and then take a comfortable bath. When I wake up tomorrow, I guarantee that you will all be strong and energetic."
Zhang Fen, Taoist Master Qingchi and others quickly expressed their thanks.
The guys had an orderly division of labor and were quick with their hands and feet. Those who led the horses and carried the luggage quickly helped everyone get settled.
Beef with soy sauce, smoked chicken, sausages, fried bacon with garlic sprouts, twice-cooked pork, pan-fried pork with salt, mapo tofu, a large basin of vinegar soup, a large jar of kimchi... eight meat and eight vegetables, all served steaming hot on the table. The air is filled with
The aroma of Sichuan peppercorns, chili peppers, onions, ginger and garlic stir-fried in a hot oil pan immediately aroused everyone's appetite.
After drinking and eating, I took a hot shower and all the fatigue was gone.
…
Bai Fu packed up and talked to Yi Chan for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, he went back to the house.
There are three beds in the room, and Bai Fu and Liao Muye, from the Fengdu Qingniu Sect, were assigned to one room. The other person is said to be shopkeeper Huang's son, helping his father with the business here.
Bai Fu and Liao Muye were chatting when the door of the room opened and a young man dressed as a waiter walked in. This young man should be only a few years older than them, but his language was philistine, his appearance was fierce, and his skinny face had a pair of
His triangular eyes were gleaming, showing his ability and coldness. At first glance, it was clear that he was not the same person as the two of them.
When Liao Muye saw this man, he felt a little disgusted. He exchanged a few words with him, but his words were even more incoherent. He simply stopped talking to him. After chatting with Bai Fu for a few words, he yawned profusely and fell asleep.
Bai Fu was very interested in this man. Just now when he was cooking, Bai Fu noticed him. The big pot weighing more than ten kilograms was light and agile in his hand. He could see that he was holding the handle of the pot with his left hand, using his wrist as the fulcrum.
, along the edge of the stove mouth, pull the wok from the stove mouth to you. At the same time, tilt the wok slightly forward, and transport the dishes to the front half of the wok. At the same time, raise your wrist and hook it back. Then, place the inside of the wok
Push the dish upwards so that the dish follows the arc of the wok and flips it 180 degrees. At the same time, gently pull and press the wok downward to catch the dish, and then continue to pull the wok back. Repeat the above actions.
, so that the dishes are evenly rolled in the wok.
When making the popular dish of kidney beans, he flipped the pot with his hand and stirred up the soup. As soon as the "oil mist" in the soup came into contact with the flames, he quickly put the fire into the spoon. This hand "drawn the fire" and caused a huge fire in the pot.
It's really beautiful when served, the aroma of stir-frying explodes, the dish is rich but not burnt, and your index finger moves when you smell it.
Bai Fu secretly thought, look at this man's cooking, strength, speed, rhythm, balance, everything is a master's style, but I don't know if he is better at using a knife or a sword?
At this time, he had already untied the towel that tied his head when cooking, and his temples were bulging. He was indeed a master!
