Competing

Chapter 40
After Yin Tong's death, Zhou Kang's army was quickly defeated, and Kuaiji was pacified quickly.Basically, it has not been poisoned by the flames of war, so the lives of the people have not been affected, and everything remains the same.

In the past few days, Xiang Liang was busy preparing food and grass, and did not take any military action.Yin Xu had nothing to do, so he walked out of the prefect's mansion with "Ban Shui" and strolled around the streets of Kuaiji.

It has been a year since I came to this world, and I have never had the opportunity to go shopping. Today I must make up for this regret.He squeezed into the market, browsing various stalls selling vegetables, groceries and handicrafts.The trade goods in this era were very simple. Apart from food and vegetables, there were some ironware, copperware, pottery, wood lacquerware, leather, and handmade products such as textiles and carvings. The quality of the products was good, but the craftsmanship was a little rough.

However, absolutely pure natural products are safe to buy, and they all have a kind of ancient charm that is lacking in the gadgets of the 21st century, and they also have a special flavor.Out of curiosity, Yin Xu bought a few exquisite ornaments to enjoy, and thought: If these are brought back to the 21st world, they should be regarded as priceless antiques.

In addition, it is a shop that writes about food and entertainment.The food at this time lacks a lot of vegetables and condiments, so the taste is naturally much worse; the lower the alcohol content, the lighter rice wine and fruit wine will taste nothing at all.Yin Xu thought in his heart: Whenever there is a chance, we must improve it, do it yourself, delicious food!
When we talk about entertainment, we must not mention that ancient profession. The origin of Chinese prostitutes was probably the embryo in the era of King Xiang of Zhou. "Eastern Zhou" in the second volume of "Warring States Policy" quoted Zhou Wenjun as saying: "There are seven hundred women in the palace of Duke Huan of Qi. According to Zhou etiquette-five families are compared, and five families are compared. One Lu is 25 families. Guan Zhong set up There are seven hundred women's houses, and there are [-] families. Since then, prostitutes have appeared on the stage and have been prosperous for thousands of years, becoming an important part of ancient social life.

Although Yin Xu hadn't touched a woman for a long time, he was unwilling to waste his precious "virginity" on those vulgar fans.

Woman, woman!
At this moment, someone suddenly called from behind: "Young Master Yin, long time no see!"

When Yin Xu turned around, it was Fan Qing who hadn't seen him for a long time!

"Brother Fan, are you all right?"

Fan Qing nodded and said: "It's just that the young master is safe, I never expected to see you here today! My lady has invited the young master to the bank of Zhenze to enjoy the beautiful scenery together."

Knocking in the direction of Fan Qing's eyes, a gorgeous carriage just passed by, Yin Xu understood.It must be the girl in purple in the car, meeting each other in the downtown area, it is really fate!

A sentence suddenly popped up in Yin Xu's mind: Speaking of women, when a woman arrives, she is still a big beauty!

Zhenze, or Taihu Lake, is located on the west side of Wuzhong County.

At this time, the autumn scenery is thick, standing on the hill, looking at it at a glance, the misty waves are vast and the scenery is very beautiful.In a gazebo on the top of the hill, a girl in purple clothes is standing against a railing. The purple clothes are fluttering, moving with the wind, soft and graceful, just like a fairy.

Yin Xu stepped forward, clasped his fists outside the pavilion and saluted: "I've seen Miss!"

"Young Master Yin, don't be too polite!" The girl turned around and gave a blessing.

The girl did not wear a veil today, and Yin Xu was able to see her true face. The moment she raised her head, she was stunned!A beautiful face appeared in front of the eyes, the young girl's skin was firm and fat, her face was bright and radiant, like a fairy descended to the earth, the beauty was looking forward to, making people look so fascinated by it, their souls flew into the sky.

She wore a bun on her head, a few pieces of gold and jade jewelry were adorned just right, and the black hair on both sides was hanging down, matching her slender and graceful figure, slender waist, beautiful jade necklace, and white skin. soft.

The pupils are deep and black, like autumn water, which Yin Xu had seen the other day.When I look at it again at this time, between looking and looking, the water is so lingering and moving.Wearing a long purple dress, moved by the autumn wind, with her light and graceful, erratic gait, the wide sleeves are opened and closed to cover up, which further brings out her beautiful appearance with countless demeanors.

Especially between his words and smiles, the elegance and nobility that has given birth to him is radiant.The external beauty of bright white teeth blends into a picture of beauty, which is really like a surprise.The girl is standing on the railing, the distant mountain is the curtain, the lake is light and agile, the blue waves are rippling, and the purple clothes are fluttering, just like a fairy coming on the waves.For a while, Yin Xuru was in a fairyland, how could he know where the world was?

"Young Master Yin!" The purple-clothed girl called out angrily when she saw Yin Xu lost his mind.

Only then did Yin Xu wake up. Seeing the beauty frowning, he hurriedly apologized and said: "Miss's appearance can be said to be like a fish or a wild goose, she is... just like a frightened bird, and she is suspected to be a heavenly man when she sees her next time. She was so rude and abrupt, I hope you forgive me!"

When the girl heard Yin Xu's praise of her appearance, she couldn't help showing a little shyness. She knew that she was beautiful since she was a child, but because of her living environment, she rarely received compliments from others.Let alone a man, today he was suddenly praised by Yin Xu, a strange man, and felt an inexplicable joy and satisfaction in his heart.Immediately smiled and said: "Thank you for your compliment, Young Master, but I don't know what the story is about this sinking fish and wild goose?"

"Uh……"

Sinking fish and falling geese, closing the moon to shame the flowers, the four great beauties now only have one Xi Shi, and the others will be hundreds of years later.When Yin Xu just spoke, he realized the problem, so he changed his words in time, but he was one step too late. The word "Chen Yu Luo Yan" had already been spoken, and the girl noticed it unexpectedly, alas!This Chen Yu is easy to explain, but what about Luo Yan?It seems that I can only be a "liar" again and fabricate stories. I can't afford to hurt the people who are forced to travel through!

Seeing Yin Xu's condition, the girl really became interested.Just now, her mind was flustered, she just asked casually to divert her attention, she didn't want to really ask the point.

Instantly stunned, Yin Xu's thoughts turned, and he thought about it, and said: "Shen Yuluoyan is a word to describe a woman's beautiful appearance and the appearance of a heavenly man. Chen Yu is talking about Xi Shi, the number one beauty in the Yue Kingdom in the past!"

"Mrs. Shih Tzu?"

"That's right!" Yin Xu didn't notice the surprise in the girl's eyes, and didn't care that the word "Mrs." was added after Xi Shi.He continued: "It is said that when Xi Shi was making yarn by the stream, the fish in the water were attracted by her beauty, stared in a daze, forgot to swim, and sank to the bottom of the water."

"Oh?" The girl smiled at Yan Yan and asked, "What about Luo Yan?"

"Well..." Yin Xu said: "It is said that there was a beautiful woman in the state of Chu who once sang in the wild. The flying geese were so amazed by his singing and appearance that she forgot to fly and fell from the sky!"

In fact, the phrase sinking fish and wild geese comes from "Zhuangzi · Theory of Equality of Things": "Mao Qiang and Li Ji are the beauties of people; fish see deep, birds fly high, and elk see decisiveness, which of the four knows the beauty of the world. Are you honest?" The story needs it, so I won't mention it here.

The girl Wan Ran smiled and said: "So that's the case, the young master is knowledgeable and talented, but the slave family is ignorant. I just don't know the name of the daughter of the falling wild goose?"

"It is said that she is a famous female swordsman, but I don't know the name!" Yin Xu looked at the girl in purple, smiled lightly, and asked, "By the way, speaking of title, haven't you asked the girl's name yet?"
