Chapter 60 The Land of Trials
She embodies the bright and clear way of the fisherman's woman vividly and delicately, and Chu Yun is naturally pleasing to the eye, so he chose her family's black-covered boat.
Chu Yun boarded the boat with Meng Qingshuang, Shancai, and Yue Nu, and the boat lady quickly brought them a small bench to sit on, and then asked, Where are you going, my lord?
Chu Yun and the others looked at each other. They were just playing casually and didn't know how to get there. In the end, he asked, Is this the upper, middle or lower reaches of the Xianyang River?
The boat lady introduced: This is the upper reaches of the Xianyang River. If you go down the river, you can have a glimpse of the prosperity on both sides of the Xianyang River, and if you go up the river, you can go out of the city to play!
Then let's go down the river!
After finishing speaking, Chu Yun threw a small gold ingot weighing five taels to the boat lady. This is not to say that he is very generous, but that the smallest denomination on his body is this five taels of gold.
Now Chu Yun has a big pocket, robbed Ye Wenjun and Qin Dingtian, harvested two million taels of gold, and confiscated the wealth of those court ministers. Now he is a local tyrant.
Especially the money that Ye Wenjun and Qin Dingtian got here belonged directly to himself, not to the court's public account.
When the boat lady saw so much money, she hurriedly said, Master, do you have any smaller money? So much, I can't even find it here at my slave's house!
Chu Yun waved his hand casually, and said, For the extra, I will treat it as a reward for you!
There was also a grey-haired, 60-year-old man in good spirits who came out of the boat. This is an old boat man. He is in charge of punting the boat.
The old man propped up his oars and walked slowly on the Xianyang River. The three girls took out leaf cards to play here, while Chu Yun was fishing on the bow of the boat with a small bench and a fishing rod.
From time to time, she was still chatting with the boat old man and the others. The boat lady looked at Chu Yun timidly and asked in a low voice:
My lord, there are some small dried fish prepared on the boat, as well as homemade rice wine. The taste is not very good, but it is barely a fisherman's specialty. Would you like some, my lord?
Chu Yun smiled gently: Okay, then you can get some!
The boat lady took out a small foldable table from the stern and set it up, and then put on two plates of different kinds of dried fish, as well as rice wine with a faint yellow color but a mellow aroma.
Meng Qingshuang and the others asked about the scent, and they rushed over one by one. Xiao Longnv even took the initiative to take a small ceramic cup, poured the wine, and drank it directly.
Wow! This wine tastes better than the hundred-year-old wine kept in the cellar of Xie Siqing's house. It's sweet and not so intoxicating!
Although Xie Hanyao is now the prime minister, Xiaolongnv and the others still call him Xie Siqing, after all, he was Dali Siqing when they first met him.
When she was in Jiangbei County, the little dragon girl did not harm Xie Hanyao's wine cellar. She was originally a dragon, and her real body was huge. She couldn't get drunk with a little wine. Xie Hanyao complained endlessly.
Now it is even said that this rice wine is better than Xie Hanyao's century-old wine. If Xie Hanyao was here, I am afraid that his face would be black.
Meng Qingshuang stayed on Xuanyang Mountain all year round, and she didn't even know how to drink alcohol. Seeing Xiao Longnu's intoxicated appearance now, she also carefully poured a small glass to get used to it.
She took a sip lightly, and nodded involuntarily: It's delicious, it's really delicious. Although it doesn't have aura, it's comparable to the taste of some spiritual dew!
Except for being a bit of a dog when facing Chu Yun, the Yue girl was extremely cold most of the time. She just tasted it backwards and didn't say anything.
When the boat lady next to her heard their praise, her face immediately beamed with joy, her eyes narrowed as if they were crescent moons.
Chu Yun also took a small glass of fisherman's rice wine to taste, and talked to the old man on the boat: Old man, is there any major event in Xianyang City recently? I'm new here, and I want to know more about it!
The old man on the boat was punting the boat with his shirtless arms and a stick of dry tobacco in his mouth. When he heard Chu Yun's question, he put the stick in his waist and said:
Xianyang City is the center of the entire Black Dragon Dynasty. Any event is a big event. For example, General Pingbei was named a Marquis, and Zuo Sima's spirit beast came out and bit people...
But if you want to talk about the most popular one recently, Bai Lang, a disciple of the outer sect of the White Horse Temple, actually broke through the famous sword mountain of our Black Dragon Dynasty!
Chu Yun raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion, Famous Sword Mountain? Where is this?
The old man Chuan looked at Chu Yun suspiciously, but he is such an old man after all, so he is no stranger to it. He probably is an outsider.
Said: The so-called Famous Sword Mountain is one of the two major training grounds for warriors of my Black Dragon Dynasty, and the other is the little Vajra Subduing Demon Circle, each of which has nine levels!
When His Majesty established the Black Dragon Dynasty, he established these two places. Famous Sword Mountain is a trial place for meritorious nobles, and the Little Vajra Demon Circle is a trial place for military warriors.
Every year, countless elite talents are selected from meritorious nobles or military warriors, and those who can pass three tests can be promoted to rank and be reused.
If you can pass more, the treatment will be different. However, since the establishment of these two trial places, no one has completely passed!
Later, as the dynasty became stronger and stronger, this rule no longer existed.
It is so strict and occasionally open to the outside world, which is regarded as a benchmark of the strength of the younger generation.
This time, Bai Lang followed Monk Daoyan, the national teacher of the Yanshan Dynasty, and asked to challenge Mingjian Mountain. As a result, Bai Lang passed directly, which made the Black Dragon Dynasty lose face.
Chu Yun suddenly realized that this kind of thing would indeed make the people of the Black Dragon Dynasty feel very uncomfortable. He failed in the trial place in his home, and let others pass it.
It's like your girlfriend who has been with you for many years has been refusing to sleep with you, but one day you find him flirting in front of others and confessing the first time.
