Plundering the Dao of the Immortal Journey Chapter 109: Nan Li
南理
Pei Ziyun walks in the street. The ancient city of Nanli can be traced back a thousand years ago. It was either the state city or the capital of the separatist kingdom. It has a chessboard structure, deep streets and secluded lanes, criss-crossing, all with a blue tile roof. The cobblestone walls show the simplicity and uniqueness of Nanli.
There are two rows of shops on the same street. There are many people selling breast fans and papas. There are many strangely dressed people on the street, carrying baskets. Some sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys wear hats and carry children. Wearing a textured flower hat or patterned headscarf.
"Eggs, sell eggs." An old woman in the street hung seven or eight bunches of eggs and sold them in the street.
"Grasshoppers, fresh grasshoppers, a bunch of three pennies, a bunch of three pennies." An eight or nine-year-old boy, barefoot, dressed the grasshoppers with thatch to sell.
The young people and the Han people interspersed on the road. The women and children who came out to buy vegetables hung their baskets and watched the selected vegetables were bought and placed in the basket.
Pei Ziyun is dressed gorgeously and looks handsome, some girls look at it, seem to like it.
At this time, Pei Ziyun looked around, his eyebrows frowned, the surrounding language was mostly folk dialect, Chinese was not the mainstream, and he thought to himself: "The former dynasty lost Nanli for a hundred years, and the original Sinicization suddenly decreased by half." /
"Although Daxu was flattened and re-incorporated into counties and counties, the culture and language were still difficult to improve quickly."
Seeing Pei Ziyun's eyes light up, a man stepped forward to salute and call: "My son, my son, are you coming from the mainland?"
This man speaks Chinese in Han Chinese clothes, but he looks a little bit angry. Seeing this man come forward to speak, Pei Ziyun hesitates, and then laughs: "What's the matter with you?"
This person smiled and stepped forward: "The son must be the first time to come to Nanli, and he is not familiar with the road. The villain Hong Lin can lead the son to see around, but he needs a little bit of money."
"Oh, what is the charging method." Pei Ziyun asked with interest.
"My son, it's not too much, that is, ten taels of silver. I can be there on call. I'm all messing around in this place. I can get rid of any minor troubles. It couldn't be better." This man just sneered.
"Twelve taels, really I am a fat sheep? Huh." Pei Ziyun passed by with a snort, trying to deceive his unfamiliar life to knock silver taels?
, this person watched Pei Ziyun leave, and said quickly: "Young Master, Young Master, five or two, three and two, can't be less, I will make a hard work."
"I'll give you one or two, I don't want to do it." Pei Ziyun waved his hand: "A serious tour guide, you can't use 300 words a day, your mouth is too big."
"One or two is fine." Hong Lin smiled flatly, and Pei Ziyun threw a piece of silver up. This person touched and bit, very enthusiastically instructing: "Nanli's climate is changeable, here is the rain. You can wear clothes for all seasons, so you have to prepare something for your play, son."
The climate in Nanli is changeable, the temperature difference is very big, the clothing can be seen everywhere in the four seasons, the length of which is different, Pei Ziyun has realized this, and waved his hand: "Don’t talk nonsense, lead the way, take me to the official teeth, I have something to do. Do it."
Hong Lin led Pei Ziyun away, seemingly familiar with the people in Guanya, and shouted: "Uncle Hong, I'm here to introduce you to business."
A middle-aged man came out and frowned when he saw Hong Lin, then he saw Pei Ziyun, his face was smiled: "What's the matter with this son?"
"Tell me about Nanli." Pei Ziyun looked around and said, "It's not convenient to talk here. The three of us will find a restaurant to talk to."
Hong Shuyuan is still hesitating, now he listens: "My son, it's easy to talk, easy to talk."
"My son, I know Nanli Sifang Hotel is good." Hong Lin smiled flatly and led the way forward.
Sifang Hotel
Although Nanli is very different from the mainland, this building is obviously a Han hotel, with cornices and carved windows. Pei Ziyun looked around and said with a smile: "The style is okay, but the charm of the characters is not enough."
came in and found that there was a room too, so he went up. Pei Ziyun dropped a piece of silver or two and ordered: "Serve food according to this."
dude took it, smiled suddenly and bowed: "Yes, yes!"
Uncle Hong also changed his face. This shot is generous, a table of silver or two, and he is still calm at the moment, pointing to the opposite side and saying: "The son is going to play, look, the opposite is Chongsheng Temple, the square is dense It has a thirteen-story pagoda with a bronze gold-plated golden-winged bird on the four corners of the tower, each two meters, also known as the Golden Rooster Tower."
Pei Ziyun raised his eyes and looked into the distance, seeing that the gilding on the surface had fallen off, and the bronze bird’s true color had been restored, and asked: "Why put a golden rooster on top of the tower?"
"The Buddha said that golden-winged birds can descend dragons. There are many mountains in the south, and mountain torrents are often floods. Therefore, golden-winged birds are placed on the top of the tower to prevent floods. In the past, golden roosters had copper whistles in their mouths, and they were empty inside, and the wind was blowing. , It crowed, and after a long period of time, the brass whistle was filled with dust and gradually rusted, and the golden rooster would never scream again."
It’s noon, the sun is shining, and the three of them are sitting and talking. After a while, the sumptuous dishes are served, a few glasses of wine are eaten, and the wine is hot. Pei Ziyun said: "I want to understand Nanli, so please Tell me about it."
This middle-aged man is called Hong Chen. He is the most informed in the daily life in the tooth line. Otherwise, Pei Ziyun asked about it. After thinking about it, Hong Chen said, "The land of Nanli, I am also a Han Chinese. Not many. It has not been very prosperous. Instead, the chieftains and yamen worked together."
"Now Nanli, the imperial court is becoming more prosperous, and all the Chinese are migrating, so our business is getting better." Hong Chen stretched out his chopsticks, took a large piece of meat, took a sip of wine, and blushed.
"I see the court, while migrating the Han people, while raising the chieftain, I think it is..." Hong Lin interrupted, somewhat dissatisfied, interrupted Hong Shu.
Pei Ziyun couldn't help being dumb, and said: "Tell me about the adults in the city, the chieftain, and the various races."
These are not sensitive things. These people drank wine, and they were a little bit drunk, so they talked. They knew their surroundings, otherwise they couldn’t do it. Listening to these words, they gradually became clear and suddenly Have some understanding of Nanli ecology.
Pei Ziyun ate a peanut with chopsticks, chewed, and thought to himself: "Listening to these words, there are four suitable targets, but even if I go as a member, I won’t get much treatment. See you."
"Dai adults and officials are middle-class, although I may not get much help when I go."
"There is a benefactor Bo, and his family is a small chieftain from the previous dynasty. He is of Nanli ancestry. The official is small but the potential is good. Especially if he loves Sinicization, he can go."
"There is another one that is too young, just ignore it."
The thought is to laugh: "Come on, drink, drink."
ate all the wine and meat, Pei Ziyun threw a couple of silver to Hong Yan. Hong Yan was already drunk and a little confused, but he was still very quick to receive the silver. Hong Lin stayed around on weekdays and was not drunk, Pei Ziyun said:" Take me to the house of Bo Shiba."
The two went out, bought gifts, and went to the main book's house.
The master book’s home is quite luxurious, Pei Ziyun stepped forward and handed over the post: "Ying Zhou Jieyuan Pei Ziyun, please see you."
The servant hurriedly smiled as soon as he heard it: "Master, please wait."
Only for a while, a man who looks a little different from ordinary Han people went out, very attentive: "But Pei Jieyuan who will enter the wine?"
"I just heard that it was Pei Ziyun, I feel familiar. I have read your poems, which is really admirable. Please come in. Please come in."
"Take tea!" With the voice of the master book, two girls in Miao costumes came with tea.
"The master book is absurdly praised." Pei Ziyun said modestly.
"There is no false praise, what I said is what I said in my heart." The main book looked at Pei Ziyun with bright eyes: "Recently, Pei Jieyuan has a masterpiece, let me watch it?"
Looking at the main book, Pei Ziyun moved his heart and smiled: "I have it, but articles and poems have a number of days. Last time I dedicated a poem to the emperor and the princess."
"Oh?" Listening to Pei Ziyun's words, the Lord's eyes lit up: "Jie Yuan Gong has also seen the emperor and the eldest princess. Nan Li is remote. I really haven't heard of it. Please also Xie Yuan Gong to talk about it." /
Pei Ziyun casually said something about Kyoto, and said: "This poem is tasteless, you can write it."
"Jie Yuan Gong later." The master book was full of surprise: "Bring me pen and ink."
In a moment, the maid presented the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, the master book stepped forward to fetch the ink and grind, Pei Ziyun took the pen and wrote the poem, the master book looked at it and sighed: "The real celebrity!"
reduced his smile, the lord hesitated for a while, the poem scroll gently put down, and raised the head: "I have something to do with Xie Yuan Gong. I'm just a mere master book, but it's difficult to make it elegant. Church."
Pei Ziyun said: "The donor is thin, you are too underestimating me~ IndoMTL.com~ I met the emperor and the eldest princess, and I have some bad names. There is a field and a house at home, and there is no shortage of money. Embarrassed?"
"It’s just that there’s an elder in my family who came to Nanli in the early years. I read in my family’s genealogy that my mother told me to find my roots. It’s just that I’m not familiar with the place where I was born. ."
The master book listened to the words, and his nervous expression eased, and he was a little ashamed: "It turns out that it is. I also hope that Jie Yuan Gong will tell me the characteristics of the names of the elders, so I can inquire."
"Li Xianlian, originally a Taoist priest." Pei Ziyun said: "I don't know what is the pseudonym and what profession I have when I arrived in Nanli."
"This matter is easy to handle, Xie Yuan Gong, you leave an address, and when I order someone to find out, come and tell Xie Yuan Gong." The master book said with a smile. Understand, he went to the city again and became an official. It can be said that there are people in the three realms of the black and white indigenous people. If you don't say anything else, inquire about something and find someone. It is indeed the right person.
"There is no address, so let me find an inn nearby." Pei Ziyun waved his hand and said, after the meeting, he left.
"Who said this person is bold and admiring Chinese culture?" Pei Ziyun went out and sneered secretly: "This person is really cunning."
Although it’s only half an hour of knowing each other, Pei Ziyun already understands that this person’s so-called outrage, especially his admiration for sinicization, is entirely because Xu flattened Nanli to restore state governance and increased control. This person speculated and showed I admire the Chinese-style appearance, which is appreciated by the government.
"Maybe it is the insider of the Tusi faction who broke into the government."
"It’s just that it doesn’t matter to me. This person is a local snake. It shouldn’t be difficult to find someone for me. This is the only relationship between me and him."
thinking about it, he yelled: "Hong Lin, find me a clean inn."
