Chapter 90 Meeting an acquaintance on the shore(2/2)
The stars are also reflected in the river.
Fuyao was lying next to Lin Jue, his fluffy tail swaying, not making a sound, wondering what he was thinking about.
There have been few strong winds recently and the boating went smoothly.
I cast a net every day to catch some fish and shrimp, which is my early meal. Sometimes I pass by a prosperous dock with many vendors. I can also buy some steamed fruit cakes, specialties along the coast, and even wine in some cases.
I often sit on the edge of the boat, letting the wind push the boat, drinking, fishing, chatting and laughing, with the fish on one side and the wine on the other.
When we get to the big rivers, water transport is booming, and the number of boats on the rivers has increased visibly. There are all kinds of boats, including melon boats, awning boats, fishing boats, and even luxurious high-rise boats and boats for transporting troops and horses.
There are temples next to almost every pier on the river, some big and some small. The largest ones are palaces and temples, and the smaller ones are small temples that are half a person tall. I guess the imperial court also attaches great importance to the water transportation on the river, and the gods in the sky and the earth
The level of supervision over this issue should be higher, so we never encounter monsters again.
…
Ten days passed quickly.
The tent boat gradually docked.
There are still conversations on the boat.
"In this world today, from the imperial court to the mountains and fields, people are either monsters or evildoers. There is no safe place for them to live. The world is about to collapse, and even the gods and masters will not be able to save it."
"But I don't agree with what my brother said. There is an old saying that the righteousness of the gods cannot be harmed by demons, and the changes in all things cannot be stopped by Tao. Although there are more and more goblins and ghosts in the world today, I hear
The affairs in the imperial court are indeed becoming increasingly unclear as the layman said, but it is impossible to say that the world will collapse because of this."
The third senior brother shook his head and said:
"History is moving forward, the world is constantly changing, and dynasties will change. This is a theorem. The changes in the world are indeed not something that Taoists who know magic and gods in the sky can stop, but if we talk about changes in the world because of temporary ups and downs, then
It’s too one-sided.”
The two of them didn't know what to talk about.
Lin Jue listened and remained silent, only looking into the distance.
The fox looked up into the distance with him.
There is a large pier in front, and many boats are docking. Most of the people who got off the big boats were dignitaries, and many common people got off the small boats, as well as many people of all kinds. On one boat, some Taoist priests got off.
These Taoist priests all had sloppy steps or looked uncomfortable, and they needed help from each other.
He must be a Taoist from the Fulu Sect.
"Come to shore!"
The boatman also breathed a sigh of relief and said to Lin Jue, the junior sister and the third senior brother in the cabin: "From here we get ashore to Wengxian County. After passing Wengxian County, we will soon reach Mingqing Mountain."
The third senior brother also stopped chatting.
"The encounter was short-lived. It seems that it's time to say goodbye after all." The third senior brother picked up the wine glass on the table and said with a smile, "Fei Peng is far away from each other, so let's finish the glass in our hands."
"If I have a chance in the future, I will definitely come to Yishan to visit the Taoist priests, so that I can experience the scenery of Yishan."
"So good."
The third senior brother said this, but he didn't miss it at all. He got up, picked up his bag and walked out.
The donkey came ashore, and so did the luggage.
Three people and one fox stood on the shore, looking at the departing ship.
The scholar still had a journey to go, so he stood on the bow of the boat, maintaining a salute posture, and said goodbye to them.
The third senior brother smiled and returned the salute, then never looked back. He turned to look at some merchants carrying burdens on the shore and the group of Taoist priests who had arrived at the shore just a little earlier than them.
What a coincidence, they are acquaintances.
They are the Taoist priests of Qiyun Mountain.
