After the master and apprentice left, a stone tablet stood on the edge of the grass reed where they lived. The illiterate fishermen were not very interested in this stone tablet. A few days later, the local county magistrate had lunch and had nothing to do to take a walk and eat to the beach, and then saw the stone tablet.

When you look carefully, you can recognize that this is a poem. You can read it: "A golden cup of wine weighs ten thousand yuan, and a jade plate is so shameless that it is ten thousand yuan. You can't eat it when you stop the cup and chopsticks. You can't eat it. You draw your sword and look at it in a daze. You want to cross the Yellow River and block the river. You will climb the mountain with snow all over Taihang."

After reading the first half of the poem, the county magistrate was unable to speak for a long time. It was such a sharp sentence, but this lonely emotion was revealed between the lines.

Looking at the second half, the county magistrate blurted out: "When I was free, I was fishing on the green stream, and I suddenly rode a boat and dreamed of the sun. It was difficult to walk! It was difficult to walk! There were many misaligned roads, and now I am? There will be times when the wind and waves are long, and the clouds sails cross the vast sea!"

The whole article tells about his lonely situation, but the second half of the article tells the ambition of hanging sails across the vast sea. The county magistrate read it several times and becomes more excited as he read it. Such a brilliant poem has no title. When he was upset, he saw a small signature under the stone tablet: Young student Gu Qing is here for a trip!

After several inquiries from the county magistrate, he realized that Sun Simiao and his disciples lived here, and they shouted in their hearts that the Tang Dynasty would be a great poet! How could the county magistrate who was determined to report to the Tang Dynasty let such a person be buried? Knowing that the Tang Dynasty emperors are very fond of poetry and mailed a memorial and rushed to Chang'an for 800 miles.

A month later... Gu Qing stopped the donkey cart and thought of going to a place to write a poem and leaving his name! I guess he will become famous in a thousand years, and his heart cannot help but beauties popped up.

"You guys are giggling!" Sun Simiao cursed, "It's going to rain soon, so don't you come in to hide from the rain."

Gu Qing hurriedly unloaded the donkey cart and pulled the donkey into the pavilion. The heavy rain suddenly roared with thunder. Sun Simiao looked at the rain scene, "The rain this summer is abundant."

Gu Qing sat leisurely in the pavilion, took out his cell phone and took his headphones and listened to the music.

The thunderstorm stopped in less than half an hour, and Gu Qing stretched, "Master, where are we?"

"There is Tongguan ahead." Sun Simiao said.

After the dark clouds disappeared, the dusk fell on the western mountain. Sun Simiao said, "Let's rest here tonight."

"Okay." Gu Qing nodded, walked out of the pavilion and stood barefoot on the shallow by a small river. He reached out and grabbed a river crucian carp with a slow reaction, threw it into Zhulou, and simply took off his clothes and jumped into the river to take a bath. He walked ashore again and another big grass carp in his hand...

"Master, eat grilled fish tonight!"

As Sun Simiao listened, he was becoming more and more satisfied with this apprentice's cooking skills recently.

Gu Qing used stones to build a bonfire and turned wood to make fire. He had already mastered the fire. As soon as it rained, Gu Qing found some relatively dry weeds to light the fire and blew out a choking smoke.

After killing the fish, they set it on the fire to roast it, and then pulled two large white radishes in the wild, washed it, broke it apart and ate it raw.

The master and disciple were eating grilled fish leisurely. It was already night when fireflies flew everywhere. Gu Qing gnawed the carrot and saw a lonely grave in the distance. He walked closer and saw some unburned paper money here. It seemed that someone had come to worship in the past few days. The epitaph said the tomb of the deceased husband xxx.

Gu Qing found a letter of burnt home that had not been burned, picked it up and took a look, although the burning only left a small piece with the word "death in battle".

"There were wars everywhere in the past few years." Sun Simiao also approached and sighed, "Emperors and generals galloped around the world, and they felt sorry for ordinary people."

Gu Qing had never experienced war and had never experienced the pain in a peaceful era. Her husband died in a battlefield and could not help but feel sympathy. He took out a broken hammer and found a big stone to chisel it.

"Are you going to write a poem again?" Sun Simiao had seen poems written by his apprentice before, and it was really evil.

"Master, do you think the emperor, general, and minister are hateful?" Gu Qing chiseled the stone hard.

"Li Shimin asked me to stay in Chang'an again and again, and I refused to give me an official position." Sun Simiao said: "Emperors and generals are also human beings. Some of their wars are for the people of the world, and some are just for their own ambitions. Whether they succeed or lose, they will still feel pitiful to the people of the world."

"Master, I think it's good to be an official at least you don't have to wander like this." Gu Qing said and smashed it down again, sweating profusely on his forehead.

"You can be an official, but you are old, so what are the common names for me?" Sun Simiao said.

Gu Qing put down his hammer and gasped, "Master, you look up to me. I won't be an official."

"I have experienced some things too much, but I won't be able to do it." Sun Simiao said earnestly. At least he liked Gu Qing, the apprentice, after years of observation.

The crooked stone tablet was chiseled out, and Gu Qing used a hammer to smash it hard into the soil and began to carve the words.

As soon as the next day, the master and the disciple left here. The stone tablet next to the lonely tomb was erected with awkward words: Ten years of life and death are vast, and they will never forget it without thinking. There is no place to talk about the desolate grave for thousands of miles. Even if we meet, we will not recognize each other, and our faces are covered with dust and hairs are like frost.

When I came to the night of my dream, I suddenly returned home. The window was dressing up. I looked at each other without saying a word, but only tears flowed thousands of times. I thought that the heartbreaking place was broken every year, and the moonlit night was short.

When the widow with the child came to the lonely grave again and saw the handwriting on the stone tablet beside him, he knelt in front of the grave for a long time and cried in pain, and slowly became choked, "Boy, your father, you left early!"

The master and apprentice arrived at Tongguan. Tongguan was very lively. From the East China Sea to the place, the population was increasing. Tongguan was the east gate of Guanzhong, the second largest gate of the ten famous gates in the Central Plains. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Gu Qing looked at the tall city gate and couldn't help but read, "The father-in-law looked at the important place, and he was narrow and narrow. He worked hard to make a long halberd, and he used a man forever!"

"A long halberd is hard to fight for, and a man will be used forever... a good poem! It should be a quatrain!"

Gu Qing looked back and said, "I'm a passerby and a fat man. He looked at the tonnage of about 200 kilograms. The other party smiled and walked over, "This little brother is very talented at such a young age."

"Who are you?" Gu Qing kept a distance from this fat man who had inexplicably approached him.

"I'm in the next chapter of Li." The fat man smiled and said, "I wonder where this little brother is there?"

Gu Qing was so confused when asked. The fat man rolled up his sleeves and continued, "I was bitten by a centipede on the bottom lane. The poison has reached the bone. A Taoist priest said that only the natural enemy of the centipede can unlock the poison, so I dare to ask this little brother where there are chickens here."

Looking at the fat man's smirk, Gu Qing suddenly came to his senses, "Are people from the Tang Dynasty so sober and unrestrained when they go to the Chunlou to find flowers and ask about willows?"

"This little brother, why don't we join us?" The fat man said with a smile.

Gu Qing observed the fat man and took a few glances and took two steps back, "I don't know how to sip. It's too unhygienic. Please take care of yourself, brother."

The fat man also looked at Gu Qing for a long time, "Does this little brother like to walk on dry roads? I have heard of this tune before I haven't tried it."

Seeing that the master and the guards of the city gate had agreed to enter the city, he hurriedly said, "I have something important to do, so say goodbye."

"No, no, no, no." The fat man bowed and said.

Tongguan is quite lively, at least for example, any place that Gu Qing has been to is lively. After a few inquiries, Gu Qing discovered a fact that the master and apprentice had only a few cents to stay in the inn. It seemed that Sun Simiao did not plan to live in the inn, and the master and apprentice rested in an abandoned temple.

Gu Qing carefully moved a few pots of potato seedlings out of the donkey cart. It was not difficult to plant potatoes, although a few died during the period.

It was when he was growing up that Gu Qing looked at Lantian from ancient times to the present and never made money without working hard. This principle has never changed.

During lunch, the master and apprentice ate dry steamed buns. In order to make themselves feel full, Gu Qing poured a lot of water into his stomach. When he walked, he felt the water swaying in his abdomen.

"Master, I've gone to make money."

Sun Simiao sat cross-legged and nodded slightly.

Walking in the bustling city of Tongguan, thinking about how to make money, it is best to have a low cost. As he said that, he found a place for a group of children to play, Gu Qing picked up a wooden board and started writing.

Half an hour later, in a corner of the market, a large wooden board stood beside Gu Qing and shouted: "Let's tell stories, tell stories, just one person and one article can listen to stories."

Stories are always tempting to children, such as short stories before bedtime.

The five, six or seven-year-old children gathered around. They saw Gu Qing, who was wearing a beggar, shaking a folding fan coquettishly, "Can you tell stories?"

"Serious!" Gu Qing said, "You can listen to the story just by paying a penny for each person."

One penny? Look at me, I look at you. One of the fat guys is well dressed, and the family should be rich. Come forward and take a penny. "If you don't know how to tell, I'll let my dad beat you up."

With a swing of the short bangs on the forehead, Gu Qing hurriedly took the money and put it in his arms and said, "I just opened today, so I made an exception and made a penny at a time. Others listened for free."

After saying that, the group of naughty children focused on Gu Qing.

Gu Qing said, "It's said that there was a Huaguo Mountain in five hundred years. There was a stone on the mountain. This stone was left by Nuwa repairing the sky..."

A story about Sun Wukong blurted out, "Sun Wukong learned skills from Bodhi Patriarch. I heard that there are many weapons in the East China Sea..."

Gu Qing's voice said that the Dinghai Shen Needle ended abruptly.

The naughty children listened intently and urged anxiously, "And what, then? You said."

"Hehehe..." Gu Qing smirked three times, "Give the money!"

A group of naughty kids: “…”

Bang!

The fat doll took another penny, "Speak again!"

"This time it won't work, I have to give you money this time." Gu Qing said as he put away the big wooden board and swayed to leave. "I want to hear it, it's still this time. Remember to bring the money?"

Opposite the story is a restaurant. There is a window on the second floor of the restaurant, facing Gu Qing’s story. The graceful woman held the wine glass and was still recalling Gu Qing’s story. She looked at the boy with her eyes. After listening to the story for an hour, she only listened to it at the beginning, and inexplicably became interested in the boy.

She looked like she was eleven or twelve years old. She was very special in terms of clothing and behavior, but she had some affinity to attract children. She calculated the time she walked down the restaurant and left with beautiful steps.

The next day, Gu Qing came here again, and the large wooden board said: Listen to the story, each person costs one penny.

After sitting here for half an hour, a large group of children came to meet. The fat man was the one who led the lead, and there were more children than yesterday.

Facing the noisy children, Gu Qing reached out and said, "Give the money!"

The fat boy took the lead in paying a penny first, and the other children paid in groups of three or two. While collecting Gu Qing, he collected a total of twenty pennies. Some of the children did not pay, but the income has exceeded his expectations. The other children will listen for free and start to continue yesterday's story.

The graceful woman from yesterday was still sitting opposite the restaurant, and she was looking at Gu Qing.

The story of the Dragon Palace in Donghai blurted out. As the plot of the story goes up and down, Gu Qing's tone is also light, and the children's expressions also change with the plot.

Time passed quickly, and it was almost dusk. Gu Qing said, "After this monkey took the Dinghai Dinghai Needle, the unlucky Dragon King went to the Heavenly Court to complain to the Jade Emperor."

"I didn't expect that Sun Wuzi had such skills. Everyone in the Heavenly Court took a breath. The Jade Emperor's subordinate Taibai Jinxing proposed to recruit Sun Wukong to be an official in the Heavenly Court. As a result, he only gave Bi Ma Wen, but made the horse circle in the Heavenly Court messy. Then he threw Sun Wuzi into the Peach Garden and took care of Peaches. It was okay to take care of Peaches. It happened that Peaches did not have a single serving of Sun Wuzi, which made the monkey very anxious. Of course, Sun Wuzi would not give up and secretly ate Peaches and drink fairy wine, and ate fairy elixirs, which ruined the Peaches and Banquet. The Jade Emperor was furious and sent 100,000 heavenly soldiers to capture the turtle grandson."

When he said this, Gu Qing's words came to an abrupt end again, "It's getting late, please come next time, all the guests."

On the second floor of the restaurant, the graceful woman finished another hearing, waved to a maid and said, "Let's find out the details of that person just now."

"Yes!" the maid replied in a low voice, and said, "Will we still wrap this room tomorrow?"

"He will come tomorrow." The graceful woman smiled and said, "Tell us the story here, this room will be kept for us."

After hearing this, the maid nodded and left.

The graceful heroine left the window and blew the ink on the paper, which recorded the story of Gu Qingjiang. She read it over and over again and carefully closed it.

It is easy for children to walk together. Children spread one by one, and ten by one. That night, something strange happened in Tongguan. Many children begged their parents to give them a penny to listen to stories. Adults were also curious about the stories that were so attractive. Many neighbors and neighbors chatted after dinner and made up their minds to meet the storytellers together.

The money is not much or less. The people in Tongguan say that they are rich but not rich, and they say that they can eat and wear food and clothing even if they are poor. However, this is the first time someone has heard of it by telling stories.

As usual, Gu Qing came to the place where he told stories again. He thought he had arrived too early but he didn't expect that there were already a group of people waiting here, besides the children, there were many adults.
