Moth

The sound of the stream is softly sung, and the forest is full of bleakness.

As autumn comes, the scenery on the stone mountain gradually fades away. The original green mountain looks like a stripped bald chicken, so the fleas on the bald chicken are particularly conspicuous.

Catching lice on the top of a bald head is a surefire hit—Liu Changzhou hits a rabbit with a stone, and he can hit it with his eyes closed.

Since Lu Hanzhang intervened, the entire fortification process has become orderly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The excavation project of the upstream flood discharge lake is under preparation. Lu Hanzhang selected three places in the middle of the upper reaches of the Xuanhe River and designed a "flood discharge gate" that had never appeared before.It is wrong to say that it is a door. It cleverly uses the height of the terrain to widen and raise the entrance of the flood discharge lake, forming a threshold-shaped interception surface, which is equivalent to setting a water level threshold.

There has always been a glitch with the old spillway lake.When the peach blossom flood came in February and March, the flood discharge lake couldn’t hold so much water, and if there was a little more water, it would immediately pretend to be dead; and when the truth came out in September and October, the reservoir shamelessly ate a lot of water. resulting in downstream flow interruption.

The new floodgates simply put an extra barrier over the entrance to the old spillway lake.

During the peach blossom flood season, the water volume is large and the water level rises, so it can naturally flow into the flood discharge lake over the high threshold; when the water falls, the water level is higher than the flood discharge gate, so it can only flow downstream, thus ensuring downstream irrigation, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

In addition, Lu Hanzhang excavated several more flood discharge lakes.

He originally planned to turn those flood discharge lakes into tributaries that can flow east and west, which is equivalent to manually digging a new Xuanhe River, but when he discussed with Liu Changzhou, he met with strong opposition.From a realistic point of view, Liu Changzhou said two points, manpower, financial resources, and without further words, Lu Hanzhang figured it out.

He was used to throwing his hands away as the shopkeeper, and handed over all the accounts to Xie Qingyun, and basically didn't worry about money and other things, and it was a bit romantic to be like this for a long time.

The so-called romanticism is to break away from realism and go straight to perfectionism.He was willing to achieve perfection, but Liu Changzhou euphemistically said that he was not so capable of providing him with the conditions and platform to let go of his hands and feet.

The most difficult part of the whole project is the water gate at the mouth of the Xuanhe River.

At this moment, Liu Changzhou was squatting on the ground, skinning the stricken rabbit bloodily.He dexterously manipulated a small knife with his right hand, skillfully disemboweled the rabbit and then skinned and cramped it. The set of movements was smooth and smooth, very eye-catching.

Afraid of the cold, Lu Hanzhang moved to the edge of the fire, added a bunch of dead leaves to it, and made the fire even hotter. While thinking, he said: "Xiao Su's approach was wrong from the beginning. Qingliangshan It is impossible to chisel in that stone wall, and almost all the structures on the blueprint he gave you must be chiseled into Qingliang Mountain. In fact, it is best to use the "suspension" method. I haven't figured out how to do it yet. "

Liu Changzhou put the rabbit on the fire, clapped his hands up and down to wipe off the rabbit fur, rinsed it in the ditch casually, then stood up, walked over to him, stretched out his hand, and said, "Let's go, I'll take you there have a look."

Lu Hanzhang stared at that hand for a while, looked along the man's arm, raised the end of his eyes, and said with a half-smile: "You and I, do you want to kiss or not?"

Liu Changzhou, who spent most of the day handling official duties in the Jiangnan General Army, rolled his eyes, and the soldier ruffian blurted out a dirty word out of habit: "I can't kiss a bird. Can I give you a kiss?"

Then he grabbed Lu Hanzhang's elbow and pulled him up, carried him on his shoulder, jumped up easily, his clothes floated lightly on the grass, and slid to the opposite side of the water bank after a few ups and downs.

Due to the fall of the water level in autumn, the width of the water flow of the Xuan River has narrowed, so that a narrow path that can be passed by one person is exposed under the cliff.Lu Hanzhang lifted his trousers, pressed against the mountain, reached out his hand aimlessly to tap on it, and then abruptly made a shape of a roof. In an instant, a concept of "three sides" appeared in his mind.

He turned around and hadn't spoken yet, when he suddenly saw thick black smoke rising from the place where they lit the fire just now on the other side, and then the tongue of flame rose into the sky, and the "beep" sound of burning dry branches and leaves could be heard from far away , There is still a smell of charcoal grilled meat lingering on the tip of the nose.

Lu Hanzhang and Liu Changzhou almost said in unison: "...rabbit!"

The subconscious reaction can often best reflect the truest thoughts in a person's heart. As soon as these two words are uttered, it basically reveals the essential attribute deep in the soul of these two people-foodie.

The two rushed back to the opposite bank as if they had been tricked by a monkey. When they were still some distance away from the opposite bank, Liu Changzhou pushed Lu Hanzhang down and threw him on a very thick pile of thatch. into the water.

Lu Hanzhang was thrown to the ground, and all the long-standing illnesses on his body jumped out at the same time, but the critical situation did not allow him to take care of so many.The forests in autumn are already dry and withered leaves. Once a piece of forest is burned, the entire forest may be buried in the sea of ​​flames.

Fortunately, this place is less than a foot away from the water surface, and the fire has not gotten out of control.

At this time, Lu Hanzhang fully realized the disadvantages of "sickness like Xizi wins three points"-his already dilapidated body was ruined by him for five years, and all his strength disappeared. .Coupled with the severe injury to his vitality from being beaten up a few days ago... Pull it down, what kind of energy is there, that thing broke up with him 800 years ago.

When he was looking around to see if there was anything nearby that could hold water, Liu Changzhou, who had disappeared without a trace, suddenly jumped out of the water like a shock, the momentum was so powerful that splashes of water splashed all over his body.He spun around against the water surface with his waist flexible, and the water absorbed by the hem of his clothes was poured onto the pile of bonfires that were still growing, and that little water was basically a drop in the bucket for the arrogant flames.

But this is not Liu Changzhou's fundamental purpose at all.

I saw him fall down again, practicing martial arts of unknown sect in the water closest to the fire source.The number of moves and moves fluctuated quite a lot, and they were very agile. Every kick, turn, and punch was almost a circle. Maybe it was the strength injected into the whole body by the martial arts practitioner, and the splashes were caused by each move. They can roll up to ten feet high, and the figure of that person is undulating in the gray water mist, slender and slender, it seems that it is effortless, every movement is proficient, exciting and accurate.

The fire seemed shameless in the face of such an imminent situation, it gradually became smaller, and finally struggled a few times before it was extinguished.

Liu Changzhou put it away when he was ready, he jumped out of the water dripping wet, breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the unsightly rabbit meat that was first roasted into black charcoal, and then soaked in water, he said "tsk tsk" twice , regretfully said: "Hey, why is it so difficult to eat rabbit meat?"

He wiped his face with his wet sleeves, stretched out his hand to brush the hair stuck to his face, raised his head to look at Lu Hanzhang, and said, "Are you hungry?"

Lu Hanzhang was stunned for a moment, and looked at it carefully for a while, pursing the corners of his mouth, as if he was holding back some smirk.

Then he raised a hand hesitantly, pointed at him impolitely, and said, "Master, when did you change your face?"

Liu Changzhou touched his face, and scolded his mother in his heart. He moved too much just now, and the tattered one-eyed mask and the scar on his face were all blown away by the water. No wonder he felt like seeing things when he got ashore. How is it clearer.

Lu Hanzhang silently pointed to the surface of the water, and continued euphemistically: "To be honest, the face-changing technique is too rough."

With a question mark on his face, Liu Changzhou walked over and squatted down to look at the water, and burst out laughing himself.On the fairly fair face of the man on the water surface, a circular pattern appeared around the right eye that was much whiter and brighter than other places, which happened to match the size of the eyepatch. It was as if someone had painted a sun and a waning moon on the face—two eyes flickered on and off, and a white line stretched the corners of the mouth to the roots of the ears.

The dog days in the capital are far less scorching than in the south of the Yangtze River. After he went south, he kept pretending to be a scarred face, and now he finally reaped the consequences - the covered place escaped the sun by chance, and it was still as white as before , the exposed place will not be spared.

Liu Changzhou walked back while laughing, jokingly said, "What do you know, I have a yin and yang face, we all play like this in the city."

His appearance was not that of a northern man in the traditional sense, and he could still reveal some childishness from his appearance.The narrow lips are curled up, and the younger they look, the younger they look, just like a naughty clown.The eye covered by the eyepatch was a little red with its smooth eyelids because it had not seen the sun for a long time.

He removed those disguises, and his aura suddenly changed, bright and sharp, just like the sun in the dog days of the south, his whole body was full of dazzling vitality.

Lu Hanzhang felt that he was only twenty-eight years old at most, and he really didn't know which tendon was pulled out to make himself into such an unlucky look that cats dislike dogs, even if he is ugly, he is still so wretched.

There is a scale hidden in his heart, and he shamelessly counts the weight of that scale as his own worth. In the weighing basket is the trust of the scar-faced Liu Changzhou. Now, he silently adds weight to that weighing basket—young and mature Liu Cheung Chau's trust.Probably because of the obvious contrast between the front and back, he actually thought that Liu Changzhou was pretty good-looking.

However, as soon as he spoke, Lu Hanzhang found that he was still a very unscrupulous bum, and he said with a playful smile: "Hey, boss, can the master of your Hengmen roast rabbits?"

Lu Hanzhang said coolly: "...do you believe that you can roast gold?"

He snorted, and picked up two straight wooden sticks from the unrecognizable fire, and said, "Don't rush, I probably know what to do."

He looked around and beckoned Liu Changzhou to come to a shoal where rocks piled up, put one end of the two wooden sticks together, the joint leaned against the stone wall, and the other end stuck on a slightly raised soil lump on the ground , the two sticks and the ground happen to form a very stable "three sides", the whole "three sides" plane leans against the stone wall, and this "three sides" plane, stone wall and ground happen to be another "three sides" three sides".

Lu Hanzhang explained: "It can be done in this way. Since we can't dig in, we don't need to. We can build such a structure at the east and west ends of the Xuanhe Estuary. The support pole on the west side can be directly stuck to the Xuanhe Estuary. On the corner of the water curtain wall, bury the one on the east side into the river bed."

"The upper end of the sluice gate you mentioned should have a concave-convex structure that can cooperate with each other for rotation. It doesn't have to be a hundred feet high, as long as it can allow more than [-]% of the large ships to pass through, it can be about four to five feet high. The water gate There is no water flowing on it, it is actually only responsible for intercepting the water body that is forced to rise when the gate is closed, so you can choose a strong pouring structure, just like the moat wall in Qinghe County."

Lu Hanzhang gave a "tsk" and said contemptuously: "Whose idea? Gao Bairen? Why isn't he against the sky? If Gao Bairen is wanted, he doesn't have to do anything else that day, just open and close the water gate. Really, stupid."

Liu Changzhou showed a very sincere expression, opened his eyes and said nonsense: "Su Yu."

He frowned and imagined for a while, and a picture of a fixed door hinge connected to a rotating door hinge appeared in his mind, and the half fixed door and the half movable door were placed horizontally, just like what Lu Hengmen said .

He raised his hand to signal him to continue.

Lu Hanzhang stood up and stepped into the water, but before he could say anything, the foot that stepped into the water suddenly slipped, and he fell backwards in embarrassment.Liu Changzhou pulled him quickly, and in a flurry he grabbed the man's belt, but he was stabilized, but the clothes on his chest were ripped apart, revealing a large piece of skin, and the slender collarbone was suddenly exposed. Along with it came a row of clear and obvious ribs.

Liu Changzhou was speechless, this man was simply a pure sick person who couldn't be more pure.

Lu Hanzhang was staggered, and suddenly had an idea, folded up his front with one hand, and popped out a finger with the other. He said, "Oh, I thought of it! I couldn't solve the problem of opening and closing the gate before." As for the heavy problem, it will be much easier if the lever and rollers are installed in the gate. At least half of the manpower can be left."

Liu Changzhou: "..."

One day countless years later, in a very simple bathroom in the sky round place, a man named Archimedes jumped out of the tub naked, ran naked in the street, and yelled loudly at this time No one can understand the birdsong.

Liu Changzhou waited on Lu Hanzhang to measure with his feet at the Xuanhekou all afternoon, and returned to the Yamen in the evening with still unfinished business.Jin Dou was going crazy because of the inexplicable disappearance of his new partner Xiaohong. Fang Bingbi held a roast chicken in his hand to please him in every possible way, and Jin Dou didn't even give him a straight look.

My father squatted down patiently, held Jin Dou's face in his hands, and said nonsense kindly: "Xiaohong went to find her mother, you know, every girl can't live without her mother."

Fang Bingbi: "..."

He was surprised to find that their dog-like leader was back again, regardless of the color on his face, at least he was the same young man as before.This discovery made him almost weep with joy.

Liu Changzhou patted Jin Dou, and asked, "How is it? Is there any news from Gu Yao? Xi Nian is still very arrogant recently?"

Fang Bingbi took out a note from his pocket and handed it over, saying: "That's not true. According to the news from the brothers who were sent to the west, General Gu Yao divided all the soldiers on the border into three parts, and adopted a patrolling system. The method seems to have played a certain role, and the secret letter sent by the emperor called this move "waiting for work with ease."

Liu Changzhou opened the paper carelessly, and a scent of jasmine flowers rushed towards his face. When he saw the words on the paper, he almost didn't pop his eyes out.

There was a line of very delicate lowercase script on that paper, the handwriting was gentle, and the ten characters were laid out like willows in the water-how there is lovesickness, but there is no time to meet each other.

The place where the signature was signed was impressively written with the name of my little sister, Liu Changzheng.

A few days ago, he was still worrying about Chang Ping's marriage. He always thought that apart from the second elder, he, Chang Ping, Jin Dou, and now Xiao Hong were all bachelors in their family.In the end, when did these two hook up!Why doesn't he know anything about it!Now Hongyan is still passing on the book!

Let's not talk about these things first, I'm afraid that if he is killed, he can't believe that Chang Li, who is usually good at dancing spears and clubs, can write such a sentence full of fat and powder!

It's no wonder no matchmaker came to propose marriage, this mother has made a private appointment for life!

Liu Changzhou rolled his eyes, and read out the words in a straight voice: "How can there be lovesickness, but no..."

Fang Bingbi snatched it away with his hands, his face turned red like a cloud of fire, and his eyes rolled around blindly.

Liu Changzhou squeezed his throat and continued to finish the sentence unmoved: "... When we met." He leaned over and bumped him with the shoulder in a thief-like way, and asked hooliganically, "Hey, hero, what are you waiting for?" Let me pass on my experience, obviously I am the first brother in the capital, okay? Why don’t there be any girls who write lovesickness to me?”

This elder brother feels that anyway, from his own point of view, he definitely doesn't like Chang Li's temper, which is too strong, even stronger, stubborn, can't act like a baby, has a good-looking face, and can say half a word of soft words If you don’t say it, you basically have six-inch steel nails with you when you say it.

As a big brother, he once told Chang Ting about their standards for men's mate selection, saying that if all the women in the world are like you, what do we men do?In the end, Chang Li pushed back unceremoniously, saying that it's just like you, no wonder you basically rely on your right hand until now.

It's true, women's colleges don't stay.

"What do you think of Chang Li?" He asked expectantly, with a gleaming eight trigrams yin and yang diagram on his head.

Fang Bingbi's eyes flickered, and he felt that sooner or later he would officially change his name, and there was no point in hiding it, so he went all out.He said: "She is very gentle, she is better than you in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she has a good personality... In short, she is very good in everything."

Liu Changzhou was puzzled, this is completely different from the Chang Li in his eyes, right?Probably... as the saying goes in the market, things like love between children will indeed change a person.

He remembered something, suddenly paused, and asked, "She has nothing to write to me?"

Fang Bingbi smiled gloatingly, and said meanly: "The old lady has something to ask Chang Li to give to you, saying, 'Son, bring your daughter-in-law back when you come back this time'."

Liu Changzhou: "..."
