Chencang was built between two mountains. The terrain is steep. The city is several feet high and dozens of feet long. It is extremely strong. There are two field troops in Guanzhong: Huya Camp and Yong Camp. The former guards Chang'an, Xijing, and the latter is stationed in Yong County, not far away from here.
It is far away, and if Chencang encounters danger, he can come to the rescue within a few hours. With strong fortifications and strong troops, it is indeed known as the last barrier in the west of Guanzhong.
Gai Jun and the other three stayed at Chuanshe at night. Chuanshe is also called a post station. It is a place where documents are delivered, officials come and go, and transportation is stopped. The accommodation is not open to ordinary people. Gai Jun did not show the golden seal of the Marquis of Guan Nei, because he knew what was going on.
It's useless, only those who hold the pass are allowed to stay. The title of Marquis of Guannai is not useless. As a Marquis, the standard of food and accommodation is extremely high, with rice, meat, and wine. Otherwise, with the treatment of a boy, there is only rice and meat.
Very little, let alone wine.
After dinner, Gai Jun heard the sound of rain hitting the eaves.
Holding the wine glass in hand, I looked out the window. The sky seemed to have collapsed, and rain poured down from the sky. In an instant, the courtyard was filled with mist and smoke, making it unlike the human world.
Has it finally fallen? The first rain in more than two months, a rain that has been long overdue.
The locust plague has been eliminated, the danger of drought has also been resolved, and the people can finally breathe a sigh of relief for the time being.
So...are you ready?
What you are going to face later is a series of suffering that will last for tens or even hundreds of years!
Natural disasters, wars, famines, and plagues.
People eat each other.
The people go from ten to seven or eight.
What role would I play in that era?
Gai Jun knelt down and sat on the mat, drank all the wine in the cup, put Yueji on his lap, played with his hands, and the sound of the piano rippled out, the sound was gentle and clear, and there was no fireworks.
In the middle of the song, the sound of "squeaking" doors came from several nearby houses. Several Confucian scholars and officials stood at the door, closing their eyes and listening. In front of them, there seemed to be a trickle of flat sand, a vast sky, and white feathers flying.
The beautiful scenery makes people fascinated.
Not only is there no excitement or excitement at the end of the piano sound, but it becomes lighter and fainter as it goes on, as if there is something there or not, it is quiet and ethereal, and the charm is clear and far-reaching.
Everyone looked at each other in the rain, wondering who lived in that house? He could actually have such a musical skill that he could reach the gods.
A white-clothed scholar in his thirties murmured to himself: "The music is gentle but actually hides monstrous ambition." He closed the door, and the pair of slender, sinister eyes on his thin face and the trace of amusement at the corner of his mouth were all hidden.
In the darkness, "His heart is to be killed..."
Gai Yin was immersed in the music and could not forget it for a long time. He asked: "This music is so beautiful, but why haven't I heard Uncle Xiaozu play it before?"
Abai also looked curious.
Gai Jun gently lifted the piano to his side and said to the two of them: "I said I did it, do you believe it?"
How can Gai Yin and his wife believe it? It is true that the uncle from the small clan is wise as an adult, but the artistic conception in the song is far inferior. The person who composed this song must be a hermit who has experienced many hardships and has a thorough understanding of the world.
"Tanxiaoer, this song is called "Goose Falling on the Flat Sand". It was taught by an unknown hermit. I have only recently become proficient in it."
Gai Yin then nodded. Uncle Xiao Clan often went out and did not take him with him every time. Maybe he met an expert by chance during this period.
The rain stopped on the second day, and there was a moist warmth in the slightly cool air. The officials and Confucian scholars who had listened to the music yesterday came to visit one after another. Unfortunately, the house was already empty. I turned to the postman to inquire, and found out
When I found out that there lived a young man and his servant, a maid, I couldn't help but be shocked. Servant, the maid would not be so elegant. Does that mean that the song was played by the young man?
Then the postmaster gave everyone a surprising answer.
Cover shooting tiger.
That young man was actually the famous young man named "Gai Shehu".
"Gai Shehu? Capital Master..." The Confucian scholar in white smiled faintly and looked eastward.
Not to mention the inn, the three of them headed east from Chencang and entered the Guanzhong Plain.
In later generations, Sichuan was known as the Land of Abundance. In fact, it was the Hanzhong Plain that first gained the reputation of the Land of Abundance. Since Emperor Guangwu restored the Han Dynasty and made Luoyang the capital, the Guanzhong Plain, which suffered frequent military disasters at the end of the Western Han Dynasty, has never regained its former glory. However, this is only a relative term. In the three
Except for its slightly smaller population, Fu's heritage is not inferior to others in terms of humanities or wealth.
"Is this Chang'an? One of the centers of the world in the past?" Gai Jun stopped his horse and looked at the ancient city in the distance covered with golden sun. He suddenly felt like sunset in his heart. "Waiting silently, the Tang Dynasty will flourish in a few hundred years.
You will once again radiate light that shocks the world, and then... the sun will rise in the east!".
Although Chang'an City has declined and is no longer the political center of the Han Dynasty, it has a population of tens of thousands and is on the Silk Road. It is by no means comparable to a border county. Passing by a city on the way, I saw cars inside like flowing water and horses like dragons.
It was crowded and bustling, creating a prosperous scene that was ten times that of Hanyang County.
At noon, Gai Jun found a high-rise restaurant and sat by the window. Six delicacies were listed on the table, and the famous wine Bai Bo was on the table. While watching the hustle and bustle of the street, Gai Jun and Gai Yin pushed glasses. A Bai kept pouring wine for the two of them.
, rarely use chopsticks.
After a full meal and a little tipsy, the three of them set off again until they were far away from Chang'an. Gai Jun could still recall the sweetness of Bai Bo.
Gai Yin asked him if he loved Baibo so much, why didn't he take a few buckets with him to enjoy on the road?
Gai Jun didn't explain this and just laughed at him as a common man.
－－－－－－－－－－－－－
Chickens and dogs know new things and have been famous for a long time.
After the great ancestor Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty and established the capital in Chang'an, his father Liu Taigong was the Supreme Emperor. Although he enjoyed the glory and wealth, he was often depressed because he missed his hometown. Therefore, Liu Bang ordered the construction of a building for Liu Taigong in Liyi, the hometown of Qin near the capital Chang'an.
A new city was exactly the same as their hometown of Fengyi. The people of Fengyi moved to their new homes. Even chickens and dogs could find their own homes. This is the so-called "chickens and dogs know Xinfeng." After the death of the Grand Duke, Emperor Gaozu changed the name of Liyi to Xinfeng.
rich.
What concerned Gai Jun even more was Xinfeng wine. As a prominent drinker, how could he not taste Xinfeng wine, which was famous in the Han Dynasty.
As soon as we entered the city, the residents and shops were dazzled by the Xinfeng Liquor signs hanging everywhere.
Which one is the authentic one?
All are authentic.
Not getting a satisfactory answer, Gai Jun angrily said to the two people behind him: "Never mind, just go over there."
"..."
Gai Jun drank some at one house and some at that house. Unknowingly, he drank all over the street until he was so drunk that his face was red and his ears were red and his feet were stumbling. He still wanted to drink more. Gai Yin and his wife supported him and prevented him from drinking.
After a long stalemate, Gai Jun lay down in the carriage.
Abai wiped his sweat and looked at the lively scene not far away. In the scene, two people wore horns on their heads, were bare-chested, wore long belts around their waists, shorts, and high-heeled shoes. Their arms were clasped together, and they were wrestling.
Abai said: "Husband, are they arriving in Jiaodu? But they are different from us in Dunhuang."
"Yes." Gai Yin nodded and looked at the man on the left. The man did not live up to his attention. He used both arms and yelled "get up", and actually raised his opponent above his head and threw it out with all his strength. This
After winning, he clasped his fists in front of the silent audience, looking proud.
Abai was disgusted with the other person's arrogance and asked: "Can my husband defeat him?"
Gai Yin shook his head.
"Can't?" A trace of disappointment appeared on Ah Bai's round face.
"It's not impossible, but it's not worth mentioning. Let's go."
Not long after the carriage left, three or four young men walked quickly from another street. One of them pointed at the field and angrily said to his companions: "Bao Chu, that's him, saying that I, Xinfeng, have no one."
The young man named Bao Chu was about sixteen or seventeen years old, more than seven feet tall, with a thick face and clear outlines. After hearing this, he took off his coat without saying a word. It was not obvious that he was covered by it. He was now naked, and his shoulders looked particularly strong.
At first glance, he looks like he is born with extraordinary arm strength.
The man squinted from the corner of his eyes and said disdainfully: "Even half-grown men are here. It seems that Xinfeng really has no one left."
The onlookers were angry in their hearts, and they all dared to be angry but dared not speak.
"What did you say?" Bao opened his eyes like torches, as if he wanted to bite people.
"I said there is no one in Xinfeng, why?"
Bao Chu let out a violent roar, flew towards him, grabbed the man's belt and lifted it up with all his strength, strode out three to four feet away, and hit a big tree with a man hugging him. He heard a "boom" and the tree crown shook.
I almost want to fall over.
There was silence all around, eerily quiet.
Bao Chu got up, turned back to the court without even looking at his opponent, put on his clothes, and left talking and laughing with his friends.);.
