183, [Nothing at all]
Chen Yuan was wearing a cloth dress, with leggings, and a hat on his head. He was covered in dust and was covered in a large package behind him.
The most striking thing is that he was holding a short stick in his hand. The head of the stick had been grinded and the tail of the stick was grinded and round, showing the owner of the wooden stick. He had been using it for quite some time.
He saw Fang Chang and said with surprise:
"I didn't expect to meet a gentleman here! I was coming from the north and was about to find a boat from Chaoyungang to take a look at the East China Sea. I have seen the northern seas, and they were a little turbid. I wanted to come to the south to take a look. Who knew that the Thousand Mile Coastlines to Chaoyungang were all tidal flats and could not get close to them."
"I heard that there are all kinds of strange islands on the East China Sea, some are very prosperous, some are rich in various rare treasures, some are fairy mountains and masters, and countless magnificent scenery, so I had the idea to visit the sea."
"I came here to buy some light goods, so I can earn some travel expenses on the road, and then buy some ink and dry food."
Chen Yuan had a deep impression of the other party.
Not only because he met Fang Chang back then, he was not as elegant as a mortal guest, but also because he was the first person to praise his ideals.
At that time, Fang Chang's few words were very precious to Chen Yuan, who had been criticized by many people around him for a long time.
"Why is the pen and ink?"
Fang Chang was a little curious, so he asked a question directly.
"That's right. I have been reading for a few years. I happen to have some literary talent. Now I visit the beautiful scenery of the world every day, and I think about not leaving any souvenirs. It's a pity."
"So every time I go to a place, I record the scenery. Unfortunately, I can't draw, so I can only convey my spirit in words, and lose a lot of charm."
After saying that, Chen Yuan patted the package on his shoulder:
"After traveling for some time, I have saved up a lot of manuscripts and wrapped them in oil paper and carried them on my body every day. I was thinking that when I have the chance in the future, I will send them to my friends of that year and ask him to keep them on my behalf."
"If I am lucky enough to live until I can't climb mountains when I'm old and have not been buried in the valley, mountain stream or beasts, I will sort out these things so that everyone in the world can feel the scenery I have seen without leaving home."
Looking at Chen Yuan’s look forward to the future, Fang Chang also felt very good.
It is precisely because there are many people like Chen Yuan who have their own ideals and practice them personally, and who enjoy working hard without realizing their hard work, that human beings can keep moving forward and society can keep developing.
This is a very interesting young man.
After chatting with each other for a few words, Chen Yuan said goodbye to Fang Chang and prepared to continue to walk around the market.
It is light in weight and small in size, and can sell high-priced goods on the island, which is not easy to find. He also needs to be familiar with it himself so that he will not be deceived by using inferior products as good products. These require a lot of energy to study and cannot be delayed for too long.
Fang Chang thought for a while and said blessed:
"Meeting is fate. I wish your works can be passed down to future generations."
"Haha, thank you sir."
Chen Yuan was very happy about this blessing.
Because he has devoted a lot of effort to the manuscripts of the beautiful scenery in various places, he is happier to receive praise and blessings in this regard than to receive praise and blessings himself.

...
After leaving Chaoyungang, Fang Chang did not return the same way, but kept heading north.
He was going to go back to the mountain in circles.
Originally, he compared whether to take a boat or a bus north, and finally thought that from here, the coastline of thousands of miles north was tidal flats, and the boat could not dock and could only stay on the sea. Fang Chang still gave up on the boat; then he gave up on the bus. After all, there was no definite purpose this time, so there was no need to be too rush.
He bought a few bags of dried fish that could be used as snacks at the Chaoyungang market, and he ate them while walking.
Although the fish is dried into large pieces of dried fish, it is not tough and soft when bitten, but it is also slightly elastic and chewy.
If you add Shanghai fish, you don’t need to add salt. It has a slight saltiness and a little more fat than freshwater fish. It makes the dried fish taste very delicious and has a fragrance left on your lips and teeth.
There is a small town ahead, where you can rest for one night.
During this period of time, we always looked for inns to stay in at night, which made Fang Chang a little accustomed to it, so this time we simply found a place to stay and no longer spend the night on the tree branches.
"What do you want, please?"
The accommodation conditions in the village and town shops are very poor, but they also provide food for passers-by. Fang Chang simply sat under the shed outside the store and prepared to settle for dinner here.
Since there are not many literate people in the world, there is no menu here, but the hotel shopkeeper personally registers the dishes based on the ingredients in the kitchen, so that customers can choose.
Fang Chang added two dishes that sounded novel, and then asked the shop for a cup, unbuttoned the gourd around his waist and poured it on.
As the meal time approaches, the stove is hot and the dishes are washed and peeled and cut, and they are cooked very quickly.
The chefs here are average, but in order to meet the common tastes of pedestrians on this road, they are large in quantity and heavy in oil and salt, which makes them a bit interesting to taste.
He gracefully used chopsticks to pick up the millet rice, and enjoyed it slowly with the sorghum wine in his gourd.
The sunset has already hung on the treetops.
At the chimney entrance of the surrounding roof, a faint gray smoke of burning plants began to float out. It bent along the wind direction and rose into the air. The air was filled with the smell of burning firewood and the aroma of the food of hundreds of families.
This road is not an official road. Although it is flat enough, it is much narrower. Since it is not far from Chaoyungang and is quite busy, it is about half a day to get to Chaoyungang here. Many people will rest in the town and have the conditions to open a small shop here.
There was a young man in a strong manner, carrying his luggage and carrying weapons around his waist, and he walked over in dust.
Fang Chang knew him. There was this young man among the people in the world who had escorted the prison car convoy before, but the two had never spoken or even met him. However, Fang Chang surpassed this young man when he was just on the way.
The young man's surname is Li. After saying goodbye to the leaders' boat, he set off and left Chaoyungang.
Although Fang Chang was wandering around Chaoyungang, he wasted a lot of time, but his foot strength was very fast and he arrived first, so he arrived earlier in this town.
Seeing the familiar face, the boy was very happy and came over to say hello.
"Fang...uh...Fang..."
But after opening his mouth, the young man didn't know what he should be called, he only knew that the other party's surname was Fang, and everyone said that he was an immortal, which invisibly led to a lot of restraint.
"Like Qingling Yuande and others, just call me Mr. Fang." Fang Chang smiled when he saw this, and then he pointed to the position next to the table, "Please sit. The store owner, add another pair of chopsticks and serve a bowl of millet rice."
"Didn't you pay a lot of travel expenses? Why don't you take the bus?"
Fang Chang asked, looking at the boy who was hungry because of the rushing journey.
"I am young and strong. It is good for my health after walking. It is just the right time to think about the future life." The boy swallowed the food in his mouth and replied politely.
Fang Chang nodded without asking any more questions.
