Chapter 704: The Wonders of Baisha River
"Thank you beautiful sister!"
Huang Yaya put the silver into her pocket, her little face flushed with excitement.
This was at least five taels of silver. She had never received so much silver before, and some people even bullied her and didn't give her the silver.
"This is what you deserve!"
Yue Lingshan touched Huang Yaya’s head. This little girl was very business-minded.
Huang Yaya's eyes brightened when she heard Yue Lingshan's praise.
She raised her head and showed her snow-white teeth.
"Beautiful sister, we can only see the wonders of Baisha River tomorrow. There is no inn in our village. Why don't you stay at my house?"
After the yellow girl finished speaking, she was afraid that the beautiful sister in front of her would say that she was greedy, so she quickly said, "I don't charge money to live in my house!"
"How can I live in your house without giving you money?"
Yue Lingshan patted her purse.
"Don't worry, sister has money for you!"
As she spoke, she took out another piece of silver from her hand.
“This is the rent!”
This time, Huang Yaya did not reach out to take it, but waved her hands repeatedly.
"Please take it back, pretty sister! I can't take this money!"
Seeing that Huang Yaya insisted, Yue Lingshan took the silver back.
Huang Yaya finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Those five taels of silver are more than enough.
"Beautiful sister, but I only have one extra room in my house!"
Yue Lingshan smiled softly and said gently: "It's okay, just spread a layer of grass on the ground and let him sleep on it!"
Xu Zhiqing standing by smiled.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah! One room is big enough for the three of us!"
Huang Yaya doesn't understand the relationship between the three people.
But if three people are willing to live in one room, that would be great.
"Then follow me!"
Xu Zhiqing and the other two followed Huang Yaya and soon arrived at a house with a wooden fence.
In the yard, there was an old man in his forties with a hunched back. He was wearing gray linen clothes with traces of patching all over them.
At this time, the old man was hanging a fishing net on the rope.
The fishing net was wet, as if it had just been retrieved.
"father!"
When Huang Yaya came to the yard, she shouted "Dad" loudly.
The old man turned his head when he heard the voice, and then saw Xu Zhiqing and the other two behind Huang Yaya.
He glanced at the three of them with caution.
"Ya Ya, who are they?"
"Dad, it's like this..."
Huang Yaya recounted her encounter with Xu Zhiqing and the other two.
"It turns out to be a guest who came to stay here!"
Hearing the voice, the old man smiled kindly on his dark, wrinkled face.
"Wife! Wife, clean up the east room. Yaya has brought three guests!"
Following the old man's call, a thin woman walked out of the main hall. The woman was wearing gray clothes, which also had traces of mending.
After the old man waited for the woman to come out, he repeated what he had just said.
"Hey, good!"
The woman did not say much to Xu Zhiqing and the others, and went into a room near the east wall of the courtyard.
After a while, the woman came out holding some strips of cloth.
After she came out, she saw that Xu Zhiqing and the others were three people, and she said, "Sir... there is only one room here!"
Xu Zhiqing didn't say anything, Yue Lingshan spoke first.
"Auntie, we told Yaya when we came here that the three of us can just stay in one room!"
Upon hearing this, the woman immediately understood the relationship between the two women and one man in front of her.
However, she was still a little embarrassed.
"I... don't have any extra quilts!"
Her family was poor and only had two quilts, no extra ones.
"Everyone, the weather is still quite hot now, we don't need beds and quilts!"
"All we need is a clean room!"
Even if the room is not clean, Yue Lingshan and others don't care. A small spell can make the room tidy.
The three of them did not have to sleep in the open air during their journey.
Whenever they arrived at a place where there was no place to live, Yue Lingshan would use magic to create a house for them.
Such a house is not a decoy, it can also be regarded as a real house.
"That's fine, that's fine!"
As the woman spoke, she turned to Yaya and said, "Go pour some water for the guests!"
After she finished speaking, she smiled at Yue Lingshan embarrassedly.
“There’s only water in the house!”
"Water is enough!"
Not long after, Huang Yaya brought a pot of water and three bowls.
Xu Zhiqing and the other two sat at a wooden table in the yard.
"Drink this water, beautiful sisters! It's from a well and it's so sweet!"
Xu Zhiqing picked up the bowl and took a sip.
You know what, it has a light sweet taste.
The three of them drank a large bowl each.
"Yaya, sister wants to ask you something!"
After Yue Lingshan put down the bowl, she began to inquire about the news.
"What is the place after crossing the Baisha River?"
Huang Yaya thought for a moment and said, "The country over there in Baisha River is called Chuyun Country. Their cloth is very exquisite. I heard about it from a guest who stayed here..."
When the girl said that the cloth was very exquisite, there was a look of envy in her eyes.
Every woman likes beautiful clothes.
In fact, not only women, men also like high-quality clothes.
"What about after Izumo?"
Huang Yaya shook her head.
"I don't know this!"
"Sister, it's already amazing that Yaya knows about Izumo Country, and you're still asking what's behind Izumo Country!"
As soon as Cheng Jiayao finished speaking, the old man who was working on the net responded.
"Girls, I do know what country is over there in Izumo!"
"Behind the Izumo Kingdom is the Wusang Kingdom! They grow mulberry trees. The leaves of the mulberry trees can be used to raise silkworms, and the fruits can also be used to feed the hungry!"
After responding to Xu Zhiqing and the others, the old man continued to surf the Internet.
"Izumo country, Usan country!"
Xu Zhiqing was thinking about these two countries in his mind.
"Father, do you know Aolai Country?"
"Aolai Country? Never heard of it!"
Xu Zhiqing nodded and was not discouraged.
He had just gone out, and the direction he was heading in might not be the right one!
"By the way, three guests, when you go to see the white sand wonder tomorrow, you can throw some things in there!"
"Lost something?"
A curious look appeared on Yue Lingshan's face.
"Some people throw a piece of cloth, some throw food, some throw toys... Those who throw things into the Baisha River will get some jewelry or rare fish from the Baisha River!"
Yue Lingshan became interested.
"Is it so fun?"
The old man smiled and said, "It is said that there lives a playful monster in Baisha River!"
Upon hearing this, Yue Lingshan asked curiously, "Why is it a monster and not a god?"
"That's because someone threw a stone into it, and then a column of water rushed out of the Baisha River and swept away the person who threw the stone!"
"If it was a god, how could he do such a thing?"
Yue Lingshan and Cheng Jiayao looked at each other.
They did not refute the old man's words.
Although gods may do such things, it is ultimately only a small probability possibility.
The three of them had dinner here. There was nothing special about the dinner, just a bowl of herring porridge.
The green fish porridge does not have any fishy smell, but instead has a sweet taste.
The three of them entered the room, and it was still dark the next day.
Xu Zhiqing heard a knock on the door.
"Beautiful sister, it's time to get up!"
In the room, Xu Zhiqing and two others stood up.
Before going to bed yesterday, Huang Yaya told them that if they wanted to see the wonders of Baisha River, they needed to go there early.
It will take another quarter of an hour to walk from here.
When I opened the door, Huang Yaya and the old man were standing there.
The old man was carrying a bamboo basket filled with rice balls.
The group set off directly.
Xu Zhiqing and the other two did not fly, but walked all the way over with the old man and Yaya.
The road is not difficult to travel.
Although they are all dirt roads, there are many people walking on them, so the roads have been trampled hard.
Three quarters of an hour later, Xu Zhiqing and the other two heard the sound of crashing waves.
Soon, a vast river with no end in sight appeared in front of us.
At this moment, Huang Yaya turned to Yue Lingshan and the other two and said, "Beautiful sister, let's not go forward, follow me!"
"Let's go over there!"
Huang Yaya walked in another direction.
Xu Zhiqing looked ahead and saw a high slope covered with rocks and the like.
"The road ahead is a bit difficult to walk on, especially the high slope..."
When Huang Yaya said this, she turned her head to look at Yue Lingshan and Cheng Jiayao.
"Sisters, be careful and don't let the stones prick your feet!"
"Don't worry, it won't happen!"
Yue Lingshan rubbed Huang Yaya’s head.
She said to the old man, "It's great to have a little girl!"
The old man just smiled and didn't say anything.
It was Xu Zhiqing who felt the resentful gazes of Yue Lingshan and his junior sister.
He smiled and nodded.
"I think so too!"
The eyes of Yue Lingshan and Cheng Jiayao both sparkled with color.
They really want a baby.
But I just didn’t get pregnant.
Seeing the two of them, Xu Zhiqing chuckled and said, "We can do it once we find Huaguo Mountain!"
The reason why he didn't have children was more because he was worried that the world was too dangerous.
Now maybe he could consider that.
He is almost forty years old. Isn't it time for him to have a child?
If we count all the worlds he has experienced, the number would probably be over a hundred.
As they talked, they walked for about a moment and finally stood on a high slope.
"This place is indeed very suitable for viewing Baisha River!"
Yue Lingshan stood in this place and found that the view was very broad. Looking from top to bottom, she could see everything at a glance.
"Beautiful sister, let's not stay here. This place is too far from the water surface. Let's go a little further down!"
Huang Yaya pointed to a step at the foot of the high slope in front.
That place is considered to be high, and there are steps.
The steps don't look like they were carved by humans, but rather like they were formed by the erosion of the Baisha River.
“That’s a really nice place!”
Xu Zhiqing took a look.
But there is one thing that is dangerous about that place, in that there are no guardrails.
If the river tide rises and rolls over, it is possible that people will be swept under.
Several people came to the stairs.
There are eighteen steps, and below is the Baisha River.
The two are about seven or eight meters apart.
“Is it okay to stand here?”
After Huang Yaya brought Xu Zhiqing and the other two over, she asked this question.
"very good!"
Yue Lingshan gave Huang Yaya affirmation.
"But this place is a bit dangerous. There's not even any protection. I know the river water will be very high after the tide rises!"
"And if anything nearby is accidentally caught by it, it will be sucked in!"
Huang Yaya was not afraid at all after hearing this.
"Don't worry, pretty sister! The river water will only reach the ten steps or so at most, and it won't reach us!"
Xu Zhiqing believed what Huang Yaya said, but if the tide came, it would still sweep people away.
"That puts me at ease!"
Although Yue Lingshan was not afraid of the tide, she still said this.
"Yaya, how long do we have to wait next?"
Yue Lingshan cares about this.
"Wait until the sun rises to that position!"
Huang Yaya pointed in a direction.
“As soon as the sun rises, there will be a sound coming from the south, and then as the sun slowly moves to that direction, a white tide will come over!”
"At that time, the surface of the Baisha River will also be covered with a layer of fine white sand!"
“The sun shines on it and the white sand sparkles so beautifully!”
Xu Zhiqing looked at the direction Huang Yaya pointed to and saw that the sun would rise in about half an hour.
The old man next to him took the bamboo basket off his back and placed the rice balls on the steps.
He also shared the rice ball in his hand with Yue Lingshan, Cheng Jiayao and Xu Zhiqing.
"When the tide comes in, you can throw this rice ball into the water!"
"When the time comes, maybe some treasure will fly out of the river!"
Xu Zhiqing and the other two took the rice balls and thanked the old man.
Time flies by in the blink of an eye.
Just as the three were waiting, Xu Zhiqing heard a whistling sound.
He turned his head and looked towards the south, and saw a white line on the boundless river surface.
The white line, about half a meter above the water surface, was the incoming tide.
The tide was coming very fast and with great force.
Xu Zhiqing noticed that the tide hit the river bank and swept some rocks as big as heads into it.
As they watched, the surface of the Baisha River began to glow white.
Then it slowly turned white at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Xu Zhiqing noticed that layers of white sand were rising from under the river.
He took a serious look.
That white thing floating out is not white sand at all.
Those are plankton in the river. They are densely connected together, and their shape is similar to white sand, so they may be misunderstood!
Yue Lingshan and Cheng Jiayao were both a little surprised after seeing the white sand on the surface of the river.
"very beautiful!"
The two felt that the scenery of Baisha River was very pleasing to the eyes and looked very comfortable.
"It's time to throw the rice balls!"
When the tide rose, the old man picked up the rice ball and threw it into the water.
The same is true for Huang Yaya.
Seeing the two of them like this, Yue Lingshan and Cheng Jiayao also threw away the rice balls in their hands.
After throwing the rice balls, they stopped throwing things.
As for toys, they didn't have any.
Just after they dropped their things, the silver-white tide had already arrived at their feet and then roared past.
“It’s really spectacular!”
Yue Lingshan sighed.
She had never seen anything like it before.
Just as she was sighing, the water surface suddenly rippled, and then a pearl as big as a fist flew out from under the water and landed in Yue Lingshan's hand. (End of this chapter)
