    Fang let out a low moan and her body trembled violently. Ye Chang was also in grief at this time, so he didn't hear anything strange from Fang's words.  "Eleventh Master you are still young. Don't go to Chang'an. Please ask the clan leader to send someone." After a moment, Fang squatted on the ground and said again.  "It doesn't matter, my own brother, if I don't go, who can go?" "Eleventh Lang, you don't know, Chang'anChang'an, that is not a good place!" This time Ye Chang finally realized that Chang'an is not a good place for him.  For the family, it should be a sad place, and it's not just because of Ye Shu's incident.  At this time, Ye Chang had no intention to ask, but just insisted: "Sister-in-law, something happened to my brother. It's not convenient to tell the cause and effect in the letter. I have to go and ask myself. I am my brother's younger brother, and I can't change this no matter what. Therefore, I must  Go. I have told the clan leader that he will come here often when I am away. If my sister-in-law has any difficulties, just tell him. In addition, I also asked Xiang'er and Chunming to come to my sister-in-law.  "Sister-in-law, if you need help with something, they are both smart even though they are young." "Chunming, you should still be with me. You are alone, and someone has to take care of you." "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I have friends to take care of me during this trip.  , that's the shopkeeper Qin, he's in Chang'an, and I won't mess around. I'm going here to inquire about information and welcome Plus, if anything happens, Chunming is too young to help.  It will hold you back." Fang heard Ye Chang speak coherently, and she finally raised her eyes to look at Ye Chang, and found that her brother-in-law had an unusually cold expression.  Indeed, it is a kind of coldness, just like the ice and snow on the mountains in winter. It looks ordinary, but actually exudes a chill.  Ye Chang did not say the remaining words of comfort. He felt that no matter how he comforted her, it would not be as effective as actions.  The next day, he handed over all matters here to Ye Dan and set off alone to meet Lin Xitong in Xiuwu County.  "Ye Langjun, when you go to Chang'an, you must be careful with your words and deeds, and don't delay on the way." Lin Xitong contacted a caravan for him, and he followed the caravan to Chang'an. Before leaving, Lin Xitong  Tama explained again.  He was always careless, but now he gave such detailed instructions. Ye Chang understood that even such a rough man could see that he was in a bad mood.  He forced a smile, nodded his thanks, and urged his horse to follow the caravan.  The rogue horse given to him by Qin Qinshou became his transportation for this trip.  There are two ways to go from practicing martial arts to Chang'an. One is to cross the Yellow River at Mengjin to Luoyang, the eastern capital, and then cross Hangu Pass to outside Tongguan.  The other one is to take the official road on the north bank of the river and cross the Yellow River to Fengling to reach Tongguan.  In addition, there are also people who take the Yellow River waterway to Sanmen Gorge in Shaanzhou to land.  Ye Chang was in a hurry to rush to Chang'an, but the caravan had to go to Luoyang, so he separated from the caravan on the way and took the official road on the north bank of the river by himself, traveling day and night along the way, and the journey was difficult.  Fortunately, at this time, although Emperor Li Sanlang of the Tang Dynasty was already addicted to wine and pleasure, and a huge crisis lurked throughout the Tang Dynasty, the world was generally peaceful. In addition, Ye Chang did not want to cause trouble along the way and was extremely cautious.  , therefore, no problems were encountered for ten consecutive days.  "This is Fenglingdu!" When the rushing Yellow River finally appeared in front of Ye Chang, he had already arrived in front of Fenglingdu.  Fenglingdu was one of the largest ferries on the Yellow River at this time. It is said that "three provinces can be heard when the cock crows".  However, in Ye Chang's view, it was quite ordinary. Apart from the scene of sailing boats racing, there was nothing surprising about it.  There is no spectacular bridge here. Although there are many ships passing by, Ye Chang is not in the mood to appreciate these stupid and small ships.  After all, it was not until the Song Dynasty that Chinese shipbuilding technology made a big leap. Today's ships are not only small, but also very stable in use.  The government has set up checkpoints at the ferry to manage the crossing of the river, but now it only collects money. People like Ye Chang have to go to the ferry to find a ferry after paying the money.  "Could it be that Lang Jun wants to make a transition?" Seeing him patrolling at the ferry, someone over there came up and asked.  "We are about to pass Fenglingjin. I wonder what my husband can teach me?" Ye Chang saluted and asked when he saw that the man looked thin and didn't look like a bad person.  "Could it be that Mr. Lang is a scholar who travels around the world?" The man said with a smile: "I don't dare to treat you as a gentleman. I have a lowly surname of Lu and Xingjiu, but he is a water guest in Fenglingjin who makes a living.  If Lang Jun can trust the villain, he will come with him. ""Huh?" "Don't worry, Lang Jun. The villain can receive a lot of scholars like Lang Jun. A few days ago, there was a happy and high-spirited man.  Those who went there shouted, "We are not Peng Peng people" while riding in the boat" Ye Chang was moved when he heard this: "Some of the people who said this must be named Li, right?"bsp; "Hey, how did Mr. Lang know that?" "Could it be that this person's name is Bai, and his nickname is Taibai?" "Exactly, exactly, this person claims to be Li Taibai." The man smiled and said: "Little man  I walked across the river with him and heard him shouting and singing all the way. He was full of ambition. He thought he was going to the capital for great use. " "Haha, it's a coincidence. I never thought that he would enter the capital just before me. Maybe he would go to the capital this time.  "You can also see him." Ye Chang felt a little happier.  Because he loves classical culture, he is quite familiar with Li Bai, who left a great name as a poet in history.  At this time, Li Bai was already over 40 years old, but he was still frustrated and lived in seclusion with Taoist Wu.  After being recommended by the Taoist priest, he received an invitation from Li Longji and Li Sanlang and began to go to Beijing.  But Ye Chang didn¡¯t know that Li Bai¡¯s entry to Beijing this time was three months earlier than his entry into Chang¡¯an in history.  "Does Mr. Lang know this Mr. Taibai?" asked the waterman.  "We have been famous for a long time, but we have never met." "It is said that Mr. Taibai will stay in Lishan for a while. The heat in Chang'an is extremely hot, but Lishan is cool." "Oh" While the two were chatting, Ye  Chang followed the waterman to the river. The waterman shouted, and suddenly a boat came over from several small boats parked by the river. The boatman was naked, showing his bronze-like muscles, sweating like pearls, and pushed the boat to the river.  In front of Ye Chang.  "Master, just get on the boat. Langjun can cross the river with one person and one horse. The man is three coins and the horse is five coins. A total of eight coins are needed." The waterman soliciting customers said: "We are all doing serious business here. We will not do anything."  You're cheating me!" Ye Chang looked at the small boat, then at himself and the horse, and his scalp suddenly felt numb.  " The boat didn't look like it could hold a few people, and there was still water on the bottom of the boat, which made Ye Chang wonder if he would sink the boat after he and his crew got on board. He looked at the other people's boats again.  They all look like this. It seems that there is no choice However, the current shipbuilding technology is so poor that the role of rivers and sea routes must be limited. If there can be innovation in shipbuilding, it is also a good way.  Although he was charged eight cents, the ferry couldn't really carry him alone. Fortunately, Fenglingdu was one of the largest ferries, and people from all walks of life, whether they were businessmen or travelers, needed to get there.  The tourists all gathered here. After a while, the waterman who solicited customers brought several more people, and nearly ten people were packed into the small boat. "That's enough, you can go."  "Someone urged. "Mr. Geng, please wait a moment. I'll leave after the next person comes up."  " "This boat is owned by both humans and horses. It is enough for you to make a lot of money. Why should you care about one more person and one less person?  " "The gentleman is joking. It's rare that the weather has been fine recently and the Yellow River has opened for crossing. We poor people have to pick up and drop off some guests in these few days to feed the family" The waterman laughed with him, but he didn't sail the boat.  They said that their life was difficult, and they could only cross the river for a few months in a year. Moreover, during these months, the wind and waves on the Yellow River were a fatal threat to them. Every year, many sailors' boats would capsize and people would die.  If not, then there will be no lunch in Sutou. You want to eat, but we don¡¯t want to eat?  " Ye Chang heard a shout from one of the people waiting for the ferry. Ye Chang also felt hungry in his belly. But at this moment, a small boat floated over. There were all kinds of Yellow River fish on the boat. Ye Chang saw a move in his heart and held the hand.  The horse then got off the boat again. "Langjun, why did you get off the boat again?"  "The boatman was a little panicked. "I am hungry and want to have a full meal before crossing the river.  Ye Chang said with a smile: "I saw you had a pot and firewood on the boat. I have two cents here, so I borrowed the pot and firewood from you. The gentleman just now, I heard that you are a sugar seller, do you have any frosting sugar?"  " The person he called was a merchant, carrying a load. He heard that he wanted sugar, so he immediately quoted a high price. Frosted sugar was extremely expensive at this time, and he, a small merchant, only had brown sugar in his hands. Ye Chang didn't take it seriously either.  In addition to buying sugar, I also asked for some vinegar, ginger, onion and dogwood from the fishermen on the shore. I also bought a large Yellow River carp. I washed the pot and rinsed the fish, cut it open, washed and cut it, and started to make a fire.  Just as work started, someone over there suddenly shouted: "Donor Ye?"  " Ye Chang heard the voice was familiar. He stood up and looked around, only to see Shi Shanzhi, the Mangtoutuo, appearing in front of him in a very embarrassed state. "What a coincidence, we meet each other everywhere in life, and we actually saw the good believer here again.  .  " Shi Shanzhi was also smiling: "Okay, that's great, I finally met someone who can take care of the food Donor Ye, I'm hungry!  " "It's better to catch it early than to catch it right. Now that you're here, one fish may not be enough Hey, fisherman"??, give me another Yellow River carp!  " Ye Chang bought another large carp, weighing two kilograms. After handling it in the same way, he started cooking it on the shore. What he wanted to make was a sweet and sour carp. Although the ingredients were lacking, especially the sugar.  Brown sugar was used, but under his skillful hands, the smell of fish was still overflowing in a short while, and many people who came and went swallowed their saliva. "Master Shanzhi, why are you here?"  "While cooking the fish, Ye Chang asked. "The poor monk is surprised, how did you get here?  "Shi Shanzhi also asked. They both spoke at the same time, and then laughed. Although Shanzhi is a reckless monk, he is not stupid. From Ye Chang's eyebrows, he can see that he is worried, and he does not ask further questions, just saying that he  What happened: "The poor monk stayed at Shifang Temple for two days. The old monk was so stingy that after asking the poor monk to get a haircut, he sent the poor monk to collect firewood.  The poor monk got angry and beat Daoning, and then left" "The monk is a cheerful person, he will leave as soon as he doesn't get along.  "Ye Chang is absolutely familiar with his words. Shanzhi is indeed a person who can do such a thing. "You don't know, there are stupid bald donkeys up and down in Shifang Temple. Stay with them.  If we stay together for a long time, the poor monk will probably turn into a turbid thing with only incense in his eyes.  " "Is it possible that Master Shanzhi is not a turbid thing now?  Ye Chang was familiar with him, so he joked with him: "I think Master Shanzhi drinks wine and eats meat. He picks up the bowl to eat and drink, puts down the chopsticks and curses. He is not only a dirty thing, but also a villain."  " "Nonsense, this poor monk is the Pure White Lotus Shi Shanzhi.  "When Monk Mang said this, he touched his bald head with his hand and burst into laughter. At this moment, a carriage appeared by the river. The smell of fish spread into the carriage, and a corner of the curtain on the carriage was lifted.  A face sticks out from it: "The fish smells so good, Auntie, do you want to eat fish?"  "It was a beautiful woman, about twenty-five or six years old, who asked inside. "If it's okay, I can ask for a meal.  "The female voice inside replied. "Don't worry, aunt.  " The beautiful woman was about to jump out. This action immediately attracted everyone's attention. Ye Chang concentrated on observing the heat of the fish and did not pay attention to this side. However, Shi Shanzhi saw it at a glance and immediately raised his thick eyebrows: "This woman is very skilled.  " Ye Chang raised his face after hearing this, and felt the fragrant wind blowing against his face. A beautiful woman walked up to him: "Fisherman, can you sell this fish?  " "That lady is so rude. This fish is used by the poor monk to wrap his belly. How can he sell it?  Shi Shanzhi said angrily: "Stop making noise, come back quickly, come back quickly!"  " "Can monks eat fish?  "The beautiful woman's eyebrows rose. "A'e, please come back. This master is a Shaolin monk.  "Another voice sounded from the carriage behind her. Immediately afterwards, there was another woman on the carriage. This woman was past middle age. Although she was well-maintained, she could not hide the fish lines on her eyebrows. She had a pair of extremely bright eyebrows.  Eyes, but what caught Ye Chang's attention more was the pair of daggers hanging on her waist. "Auntie" "It's not for sale, and there's no need to force it. We'll just find a place to eat after we cross the river."  "The middle-aged woman said. "If you two don't mind, you can buy two more fish and I will cook them for you two.  "Ye Chang saw the pair of daggers and had an idea in his mind. "I'm afraid it will waste Lang Jun's time.  "The beautiful middle-aged woman said. "Both left and right are on their way, but whether it's half an hour late or half an hour early.  "Ye Chang said. At this time, the first two sweet and sour carps have been cooked. Ye Chang and Shanzhi ate so much that the monk's mouth was full of oil. At the same time, Ye Chang began to cook fish for the two women and their driver.  , when the fish was half cooked, suddenly the sound of horses galloping came from behind, and then someone said happily: "Here it is, here it is!"  "The beautiful middle-aged woman frowned, raised her head and glanced at the man. The man smiled and cupped his hands: "Why are you leaving so quickly?  " "Something's wrong.  The middle-aged beautiful woman said coldly: "Mr. Geng sent me your love for hundreds of miles. I have already taken it. I still ask you to go back."  " "Linghu Ling sent me to invite you. Isn't it too much for the aunt to do this?  Geng Langjun showed displeasure: "Linghu Ling has prepared delicacies from all over the world and is waiting for you at the table, but my aunt would rather eat the garbage that the pigs and dogs ignore than go to Linghu Ling's banquet."  Are you really so ignorant of praise?  "
