24 Solve the four riddles casually

Qu Baoshu immediately raised his eyebrows slightly, but unexpectedly, this little girl actually discovered her origin, and couldn't help but say with some surprise: "Okay, you Xie Yixiang, it seems that in recent years, the 'chaotic parting, competing for the moon Yixiang' that has been rumored on the rivers and lakes in recent years really has some doorways." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" A smile gradually appeared on his face, and he admitted, "That's right, I'm from Chaoyin Cave in Putuo Mountain in the East China Sea, and it's a little difficult to answer if you ask me if I'm a descendant of Qu or Qu himself." You have to tell me first, which head of the song you are referring to as the head of the Chaoyin Cave Qu?"

Xie Yixiang couldn't help but be dumbfounded when she heard him admit it in person. The famous head of the tide sound cave song, she has heard of it for a long time. When she was very young, she heard her father Xie Fengxuan mention that this Qu predecessor was originally a person from the river, and because he was dissatisfied with the tyranny of the previous dynasty, he sailed into the sea from the Yellow River alone and went to Putuo Mountain to retreat. Unexpectedly, Naputuo Mountain is located in the fortress of the sea route, and coincided with the weakness of the country, the Central Plains people were bullied by the foreign people who came to trade, so this Qu predecessor raised the prestige of our country, successively defeated dozens of masters of Fusang, Goryeo and other countries, and finally founded the Chaoyin Cave faction, and regarded himself as the head of the Chaoyin Cave, which has the reputation of "the Yellow River enters the sea in the east, and the birds and beasts on the sea bow their heads".

Because this Qu master of Chaoyin Cave lives in the East China Sea, he has almost never set foot in the Central Plains, and few people have seen his true face of Lushan, and even his original name is not clear, so Xie Yixiang has not been able to connect this Confucian Qu Baoshu with this famous Chaoyin Cave Qu master. If it weren't for the fact that he accidentally saw the half-open and half-closed folding fan in his back placket, and remembered the oil umbrella of Ning Cui, the "face-tearing demon" who caused a sensation in Jinling back then, Xie Yixiang would not have guessed the origin of the Qu Baoshu in front of him anyway.

At that moment, Xie Yixiang wanted to ask about the whereabouts of Ning Cui, the "face-tearing demon" who had not yet been brought to justice, but was a little confused by Qu Baoshu's last question, and asked rhetorically: "Which Qu master? What does this mean by the seniors? Could it be that there are still many Qu masters in Chaoyin Cave?"

I saw Qu Baoshu laugh and said: "Qu Ruohai, the head of the Chaoyin Cave who defeated the masters of various countries twenty years ago, is the late father; after the death of his father, until the time of three months ago, the head of the Chaoyin Cave was only poor; as for now, Qu Baohua, the younger brother, has taken over the position of the head of the Chaoyin Cave. That is to say, I have had three heads of music in Chaoyin Cave, all of whom are undeceived and genuine. That's why you just asked me if I was a junior of Master Qu or Master Qu himself, but you taught me how to answer?"

Xie Yixiang was shocked when he heard this, it turned out that the Qu Baoshu dressed as a Confucian in front of him was actually the former head of the Chaoyin Cave, and he was secretly afraid in his heart, and thought: "No wonder this senior Qu can walk with Dai Qi, the number one master of the Emei Sword Sect today, and his status is indeed not below Dai Senior." You must know that Putuo Mountain in the East China Sea is the gathering place of the oriental countries in the maritime trade, for hundreds of years has been disputed, the tide sound cave is a collection of the essence of the martial arts of various countries and the establishment of the sect, the martial arts in the school is also advancing with the times, changing with each passing day, has always been a capable person to live in. In such a situation, the father and son of this Qu Baoshu were able to serve as the head of the Chaoyin Cave for three consecutive terms, and directly taught 'the sea and mountains and beasts to bow their heads', and the high level of their martial arts can naturally be imagined. ”

For a while, Xie Yixiang had a thousand words in his heart to ask the "head of Qianqu" in front of him, but he didn't know what to ask first, so he had to repeat that sentence again and asked: "'Poyang Lake, Lao Ye Temple, Yin Soldier Dance, Chaos Beast', what does this sentence mean?"

Seeing that she had been pestering this sentence, Qu Baoshu couldn't help but smile slightly, and said: "This is an old saying, as far as you know, it has also been circulated for a decade or two, referring to the four major supernatural events that happened in the area of Poyang Lake. Among them, 'Poyang Lake', naturally refers to the mysterious shipwreck on Poyang Lake in the waters near Chilong Town, these days you are wandering around in Chilong Town, you must have heard the people in the town talk about it, saying that what kind of red dragon's ghost did it, deliberately overturned the boat, this is not needy to say much; the second sentence of the 'Lao Ye Temple', is a little confusing, it is said that the emperor had planned to build a 'Lao Ye Temple' on the shore of this Poyang Lake, but in the end it was somehow not done......" Xie Yixiang hurriedly interjected and asked: "'' 'Lao Ye Temple' refers to a temple that the imperial court once ordered to build on the shore of Poyang Lake? When was that, and how did I not hear of it?"

Qu Baoshu said with a smile: "Coincidentally, it was about one or two decades ago, when the world was not yet unified, although the emperor had just won the victory of Li Jiusi and won the victory of Poyang Lake, and then laid the cornerstone of winning the world, but after all, he had not ascended the throne and became the emperor. As for why the 'Old Man Temple' was built, the poor acid doesn't know, and besides, this is not the point. ”

Xie Yixiang was silent for a moment, so she had to listen to Qu Baoshu and continue: "...... As for the 'Yin Soldier Dance', it refers to the mystery of the 'Yin Soldier Borrowing Grain' that once happened in Nanchang Mansion. However, this incident is not unusual, and there are similar rumors in every dynasty and generation, that the granary, which was originally full, was opened the next day and became empty, leaving only a warehouse full of paper money, and then there would be good people who said that it was the dead soldiers of the underworld who were haunting the grain and "borrowed" the grain from the granary. Hehe, as for the reason for this kind of thing, his father Xie Fengxuan, as a general in the army, naturally knows more about these tricks than poor, so he doesn't bother me to say more. And this last 'Chaos Beast', that's kind of interesting......"

Xie Yixiang's heart moved, and he immediately remembered the chaotic stone sculpture that he had just found in the ruins of the attic of the Yao family's ancient mansion. Who knew that the Qu Baoshu said: "The 'Chaos Beast' in this sentence does not refer to the legendary Divine Beast Chaos, and it has nothing to do with the stone sculpture we saw in the Yao family's ancient mansion before. Legend has it that on the shores of Poyang Lake, there is often a strange mist, shaped like a ball of cotton, whether it is animals or people, one moment they are still walking on the road dignified, the next moment they are shrouded in this strange mist, and when the fog dissipates, there is no trace of these animals and people, so they disappear out of thin air for no reason......

Hearing this, Xie Yixiang seemed to connect the whole thing, and couldn't hold it anymore at the moment, and said tentatively: "I have heard that the military salaries of 20 million taels of silver in the imperial court before were originally transported to Huguang by water along the Yangtze River by fleet, but unexpectedly, at the border of Jiangzhou, it suddenly turned southward and drove straight into Poyang Lake. Listening to what the predecessors said, the shipwreck on Poyang Lake, as well as the fog that swallowed people, could it be that the fleet of the imperial court transporting military salaries was missing like this?"

Naqu Baoshu let out an "oh" and asked rhetorically with some differences: "Didn't the stolen military salary of the imperial court be robbed by Jiang Wangcai of Dongting Lake? The imperial court also made a big fight for this, sending the garrison of Chengtianfu to exterminate Longyue Island, killing Jiang Wangcai and Fang Dongfeng on the spot, and then recovering the entire Huguang. How can it be related to the miracle of Poyang Lake?"

Xie Yixiang shook his head firmly and said, "The theft of military salaries has nothing to do with Jiang Wangcai in Dongting Lake. Qu Baoshu said with relief: "In this way, Jiang Wangcai's death is also a little wrongful...... Hehe, it turns out that little girl, you came to the shore of Poyang Lake this time, and the so-called 'court business' is to find the military salaries lost in Poyang Lake for the imperial court?"
