Chapter 611: Walking on the water


A few days later.

The team left Lantian Pass, entered Shannan East Road, and arrived in Shangzhou.

Wang Xuance and Liu Renliang, who were in charge of exploring the way, came back to report.

"Report to Xiangguo, there is Bear's Ears Mountain in front, and Danshui is over the mountain, General Cui asked me to wait to come and report it, and when I say it, I can change to a boat and go down, and the road will be easier."

"Are there so many ships?"

"General Cui said that he could find more than a dozen boats, Xiangguo took the boat, and I waited for the guards on the coastal road."

Li Chengqian said expectantly, "Teacher, let's take a boat." ” The other group of bear children were also tossed and wanted to take the boat.

Li Chao smiled, "Since everyone wants to take a boat, let's take a boat." ” Wang Xuance responded, "The subordinates immediately go and reply to General Cui and the others and let them get ready." ” From Chang'an to here, it is actually not far, but Li Chao and they have walked for several days, even if they have horses to ride, they are just as unhappy.

The main thing is that these little guys delay their speed, although Li Chao said that he wanted to sharpen them, but they are still too small, although the body bones are good, but they lack exercise, if they come too strong, they can't stand it, especially now that the autumn tiger is rampant.

Zhang Chi has a degree, and appropriate slowness is also a must.

For people in this era, long-distance travel, taking a boat is the best choice, riding a horse is the best choice, taking a car is the next choice, if walking, it is even more of the next choice.

The advantage of taking a car is that there are no bumps, there will not be so much wind and dust, the boat ride is comfortable, and the navigation is fast, especially so downstream, which is even faster.

Therefore, most people go out by boat, from river to river, and go around, trying not to take the land route.

"I'll test you, who knows the origin of the name of Danshui" Li Chao asked a group of little guys with smiles on their faces again.

"I know, because there are danyu.

There is a record in the Northern Wei Dynasty and Li Dao Yuan Water by injecting Dan water, the water comes out of the Dan fish, the first summer solstice is ten days, the night serves it, the fish floats on the water side, and the red light shines like fire.

Take it from the net, cut its blood to coat its feet, and walk on the water, and dwell in the abyss for a long time.

Lai Heng replied first.

"That's right, that's where the name comes from."

Li Chao nodded, although the Lai Heng brothers were born in the Jiangmen, they studied extremely hard.

Li Chao built a library in the Li family, which collected all kinds of books, and after sorting them out, there were tens of thousands of volumes.

There are many books in this library, and it adopts the kind of directory of later libraries, which is divided into categories and convenient to find books.

This library cost Li Chao a lot of money, in this era, a book is very expensive, especially those ancient books, most of them are still manuscripts, solitary.

Li Chao spent a lot of money to ask for books, and after finding these books, he found someone to correct and revise them, and then re-copied and backed up, some precious books, but also used movable type printing and engraving, and some rare books were specially engraved.

The book was revised and printed and sold, while it was stored in the library, which was open to everyone and could borrow it.

It can be said that although the money is not less, it has received a lot of praise.

What's more, Li Chao got so many books, and after revising them, he would publish them again, and there would be benefits, not all of which were paid.

It is very convenient for the students of Bailu Academy to borrow books, and it is naturally more convenient for the Laiji brothers to read books.

The brothers usually like to stay in the library's reading room and read all kinds of books.

The Northern Wei Dynasty Li Daoyuan's water scripture note, is regarded as a geographical masterpiece in Chinese history, this book is the ancient book of the water book to make notes, the water book is only more than 10,000 words, the water book note seems to be the water book to make a note, in fact, it is based on the water scripture, a detailed record of more than 1,000 large and small rivers in China, as well as related historical sites, characters and myths and legends, etc., this is the most comprehensive and systematic comprehensive geographical work in ancient China, and has long been selected by Li Chao into the Tang Dynasty junior high school textbook.

The brothers are still in elementary school, but they have already read the water scripture notes in advance.

There is a Danyu in the Danjiang River, named after the Danyu, and this Danyu is a legendary sacred fish.

If you can catch it, you can walk on the water by applying fish water to your feet, and you can even live in the river for a long time, which is as magical as the water beads in the East China Sea.

"Teacher, is there still a Dan fish in Danshui now" Li Chengqian was full of curiosity.

Li Chao said, "When the river sees the Danyu, its light is like a candle, and the people are different, but don't dare to hunt, because it is a god."

Legend has it that the common people can often see the Danyu, but no one dares to catch it, thinking that it is a sacred fish. ” Fish that glow red, in fact, Li Chao is quite rare, generally speaking, the fish that can glow must be the fish in that kind of underground river, and those fish will only glow in that kind of dark underground river due to the special environmental impact.

In a normal river, it is unlikely that a fish will shine, and Li Chao has never seen it anyway.

As for the blood of the danyu smeared on the soles of the feet, it can walk on the water, which is even more legendary.

This Danyu is a bit of the shadow of the mythical beasts in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

Li Chao liked the book of the Classic of Mountains and Seas very much, and later generations looked at the Classic of Mountains and Seas and felt that this was a mythological novel.

However, in Li Chao's view, this ancient book of the pre-Qin Dynasty is actually very valuable for research, not only recording ancient myths, but also recording geography, products, witchcraft, religion, ancient history, medicine, folk customs, ethnicity and other aspects of the content, is an ancient book with considerable archaeological and historical value.

There are more than 10 volumes of the Book of Mountains and Seas, including five volumes of the Book of Mountains, eight volumes of the Book of the Sea, four volumes of the Book of the Great Wilderness, and one volume of the Book of the Sea, with a total of about 30,000 words, recording the geography, terroir and products of more than 100 countries, 550 mountains, 300 waterways and the mountains and rivers of the states.

Although it is somewhat exaggerated to say that many of the contents have been compiled over a long period of time, they still have high reference value after careful analysis.

Li Chao recently planned to make a note on the Classic of Mountains and Seas, but not only to translate it, but to use the Classic of Mountains and Seas as a wedge to compile a set of ancient Chinese history and geography books.

Later generations generally believed that the Classic of Mountains and Seas was not written by any one person, nor was it written for a while.

This should be a book from the early years of the Warring States period to the early years of the Han Dynasty, written by people in Chu, Bashu, Dong and Qi places, and it was only compiled together when the Western Han Dynasty school books were written, and most of the content is from oral legends.

Li Chao wanted to use the Classic of Mountains and Seas as a preface to compile a set of ancient Chinese historical geography books in the Tang Dynasty.

Li Chengqian thought there, when he arrived at Danshui, he must find a way to find this Dan fish, if he could catch one, and then smear the blood on the soles of his feet, then he would be able to live in the abyss for a long time and walk on the water in the future.

This kind of thinking dares Li Chao to read martial arts novels when he was a child, and then fantasize about cultivating internal skills is the same psychology.

Li Chengqian even began to encourage a group of friends to discuss how to catch the danyu and realize the fantasy plan of walking on the water. t1706231537:
