Arty Records

In the early morning, the train arrived at the terminal station, Hejin.

Before getting off the car, Young Master Hong solemnly warned his classmates again not to reveal his identity.If you want to call your name, be sure to call your first name.

A girl laughed and said, "Jintu, you don't come home when you get to your house, it's so unfilial."

A girl teased: "Jin Tu, you didn't invite us as guests even after we're at your door, you're too stingy."

Hong Xinyao flicked his hair: "This young master never enters the house." This is an allusion that everyone remembered when chatting on the train.Hejin is the place where Dayu controlled the water, and there is the ruins of the ancient ferry of Yumen.He stroked the hair that was thrown to the side with his fingers, and said with an elite look: "I will go back to Beijing with you after the wind gathering, and go to the remedial class." This reason is fully in line with his actual situation, and the teachers and classmates believe it.

The car picked up by the hotel was waiting at the station. After a long journey of more than ten hours, everyone was exhausted and drowsy after climbing up.

"Universal Hotel" is a brand-new eight-story high-rise building, and it is also the largest and most luxurious hotel in the area.It was near the Spring Festival and it was late at night, so the hall was extremely deserted.

Hu Yixin took the room card and allocated accommodation: "They are all standard rooms for three people. There are 8 girls plus me, exactly 3 rooms. 4 boys plus teachers, 3 people in one room, and 2 people in one room. They are voluntary to match."

Hong Xinyao said, "Can I stay with Teacher Fang?"

Those three boys were not close to him, and they couldn't ask for more.

Hu Yixin looked at his brother to see his opinion.Fang Sishen nodded: "OK."

After entering the room, Fang Sishen pointed to the bathroom: "Use it first."

Hong Xinyao was thinking about how to speak more harshly, how to threaten to be more effective to this nerd, but saw the other party walk to the table, put down his backpack, and began to study the LCD screen hanging on the wall.

"Hey, it's not a computer, it's just a TV." Fang Sishen was slightly disappointed, opened his backpack and took out the map, sat down and looked at it carefully.

Mrs. Fang Shudai was also defiant, Hong Dashao stomped his feet heavily, stepped over to the bed by the window in two steps, threw the bag on the bed, and flipped it over in a fit of rage.A yawn hit me, and I was really sleepy, so I grabbed my pants and went to take a shower.

Fang Sishen was alarmed by him, turned around and saw a huge figure entering the bathroom, and slammed the door shut in anger.

In National No. [-] High School, there are many students like Hong Xinyao. The material conditions are too good, and the physical development and brain development are difficult to synchronize. The adult's strong torso is supported by a childish white head, which feels quite disharmonious. .

underage.

In fact, you can't blame him.

Fang Sishen immediately decided that he should have a good talk.

So when First Young Master Hong came out of the bathroom wearing a towel and a pair of underwear, he bumped into the stern and serious gazes of the nerd above him, and his whole body trembled with fright.

"Is it cold?" Fang Sishen got up and found the remote control of the air conditioner, and turned it up a few degrees.

"Student Hong Xinyao, I want to talk to you."

Young Master Hong was trembling with goosebumps all over his body.

Every time he took an elective class before, what he was most happy to do was to provoke Fang Shudai, who never loses his temper, to name and criticize himself. Watching him suppress his irritability and anger, hold the eraser or chalk tightly with one hand, and use The calm tone of voice conceals his incompetence and timidity as a teacher.At that time, Young Master Hong would give in appropriately with satisfaction, and wait for the next time to repeat the same procedure.

He never understood why whenever he heard the slow "Classmate Hong Xinyao", he would be so excited, as excited as a chicken blood.Ordinarily, since entering the school, there was no second teacher who called him so politely, treated him with such equality and humility, and Fang Shudai was actually equally humble and polite to all students.However, Young Master Hong always felt that there was something subconsciously disgusting in that deliberate politeness, under the polite and thoughtful appearance.

Egg.hypocritical.

Obviously eyesight is very good, but I want my glasses to stay with me.You are obviously so angry that you want to pretend that I don't care about you.Obviously I am not clean, but I want to act like I am the cleanest in the world...

"Teacher Fang, what do you want to say?" Hong Xinyao sat down beside the bed.He didn't realize that every time he was influenced by Fang Sishen's modest and polite attitude, he would involuntarily put on an appearance of politeness, although this appearance could not last long.

"About the last final exam, I want to make it clear to you. Unless I don't teach this course, the grading methods and standards will not change due to any personal factors. If you insist on creating some public opinion, the school will no longer Hiring me, I have no way to stop you, I can only go with the flow. But as long as the school doesn't propose dismissal, then I will insist on finishing this class." Taking advantage of Hong Xinyao's time to take a bath, Fang Sishen did it again Taking everything into consideration, the tone was flat but firm.

"I don't know where you read those articles. You should know that things happened half a year ago and have seriously affected my life. I didn't give in at the time, and it is even more unnecessary now. You can do it , at most it will make me lose this part-time job, unable to cause any bigger blow."

Seeing the young man raised his eyebrows, Fang Sishen smiled slightly: "In the end, you and I are people from two worlds. To you, those articles are nothing but gossip that can be used to threaten the teacher in exchange for test scores. To me You will not understand what price I have paid for this. Even so, I have never regretted it. Maybe you can use this analogy, your behavior is like breaking into Another child on the battlefield, the war is over, and you, holding up the broken knife you picked up, threatened to kill a corpse."

Fang Shudai's expression was strange and unfamiliar, Hong Xinyao was a little at a loss: "What do you mean by...?"

"If you think about it, you can understand."

"You mean, I can't threaten you?"

"Yes, you can't threaten me." Fang Sishen nodded, as if stating the most objective fact.

"I didn't explain it to you last time because I hated your motives and behavior of threatening people. Thinking about it later, you are a student and a minor. I should at least tell you why."

Fang Sishen no longer cared about the other party's poor self-esteem, and spoke out.

Hong Xinyao felt relieved when he heard the phrase "I hate you very much".Somehow, he was distracted by the phrase "minor", and blurted out, "How old are you?"

"Huh? 26." Fang Sishen was most unprepared for such a sudden attack, and confessed truthfully.However, the age he mentioned is the Northeast folk algorithm.His birthday was only in December of the first year, and he just turned 12.

"My second sister is also 26." Hong Xinyao stared at Fang Sishen's face for a while, "You look much younger than her." He was looked after by his second sister when he was young, and he was closer than his mother.However, because of this, in the eyes of 17-year-old Young Master Hong, 26 is already the same age as an old man.

Fang Sishen was a little embarrassed: "Why are you asking this?" Pulling the topic back, "I never said that it is acceptable to make anyone fail, and make up for the holidays. Why would you rather use such an improper method than give it a try? ?”

Hong Xinyao didn't know if he listened or not, so he suddenly approached and took off the glasses on the bridge of his nose: "You are obviously not short-sighted, why are you wearing these all day long?"

Fang Sishen gradually got used to wearing the flat mirror, and often couldn't remember to take it off.Startled by Hong Xinyao, but he didn't take the young man's recklessness to heart, he pulled his glasses back and put them on the table: "This is more like a teacher."

First Young Master Hong stared at his face for a while, nodded: "Yes."

Teacher Fang continued to bring the topic back: "Why can't you give it a try with your own ability? It's up to people, as long as you do it, it's not necessarily difficult." Knowing that his grades in almost all subjects were upside down, he asked, "Don't you Do you plan to deal with teachers in every subject like this, threatening and intimidating one by one?"

These words hit Young Master Hong's sore spot, he held back for a while with a cold face, and said angrily, "You think I think for myself! I don't know how happy I am in Hejin! The old man didn't even say hello, so he threw me away." I don’t care if I go to the capital! I’ve never seen those perverted formulas, and the damn tadpole text in eight lifetimes, so why not try! Now I’m so stuck at home that I can’t go back to my house, like a rat in the sewer. Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu..."

Choked, stood up and kicked the bedside baffle: "I'm sleepy, I'm going to sleep!" Shaking off the quilt, he lay down on his back, his eyes were red, and he stared at the ceiling angrily.

Fang Sishen knew that he wanted to be strong, so she refused to shed tears in front of others.Think about it, and said softly: "You said before that returning to Beijing to make up lessons during the winter vacation is actually the best way. The teacher who led the team this time, as far as I know, is very good at teaching students how to take the exam. If you have the opportunity, you can ask she."

"Hmph!" Young Master Hong turned over.Xin said that you thought everyone else was blind like you, a nerd, and liked that kind of vixen woman.

Fang Sishen has always been passive in dealing with people, and this is already because of the teacher-student relationship.Seeing that he didn't appreciate it, he stopped mentioning it and picked up the map on the table again: "You are a local, have you ever been to Yumen Ancient Ferry?"

"no!"

"Where is Taishi Cemetery?"

"never heard of that!"

"how is this possible?"

Hong Xinyao suddenly sat up: "If you haven't heard of it, you haven't heard of it. This kind of crap, why should I lie to you when I'm full!"

Fang Sishen was stunned, and then said, "I don't mean not to believe you."

However, Young Master Hong didn't care what he said, and continued to complain: "Huh! You all know that you are going to Hejin, so you colluded and don't tell me, are you trying to make me look ugly? Do you want me to embarrass me? Everyone is uneasy and kind. ..."

I am ignorant, and I still have the face to clamor to attend the class; as a fellow of Tai Shigong, I can't remember my hometown for a semester, and I blame others, it is really embarrassing to throw it on the grave of my ancestors.Fang Sishen didn't bother to talk to him. The museum, library, and cultural center behind him thought he didn't know, so he stopped asking. He got up to wash up, and didn't answer at all.When he came out of the bathroom, he saw that Young Master Hong had fallen asleep with a full face.

The next morning, the students caught up on sleep, and the two teachers discussed the itinerary with the tour guide.Tourism in Hejin is not well developed, and it is the most deserted time of the year. It is said that it is a tour guide, but in fact it is just a local idler who works temporarily and is responsible for leading the way.When the students go out, they rent the car from the hotel.

When asked about the specific address of the Taishi Cemetery, the tour guide looked blank: "Taishi Cemetery? Where can we find this attraction in Hejin?"

Hu Yixin said: "This is Tai Shigong's hometown, how come there is no his tomb? It is clearly written in the documents, don't fool us."

The tour guide said: "Oh my sister, how could I be fooled by you! Tourists who have always come to Hejin, first look at the Longmen Gorge at the Yumen Ancient Ferry, and at the second look at Xue Rengui's cold kiln, but I have never heard of anyone wanting to see the Taishi Cemetery. Taishigong... By the way, there is a Taishi Temple in Hancheng on the other side, and I heard that there is a big tomb nearby, is that where you are talking about?"

Fang Sishen shook his head: "There is indeed a Taishi cemetery in Hancheng, but it is said that it is just a tomb of clothes. There should be another place where Taishi Gong is buried in the Xinfeng area of ​​Hejin."

"Xinfeng? That's all out of the city, far away." The tour guide muttered, and suddenly clapped his hands, "I remember, there is a large ancient tomb at the north end of Xinfeng Village, which is said to be the ancestral tomb of the Sima family. Everyone talks about those mounds The stone in front of the house may not be less than two or three thousand years old, could it be that is where you are looking for?"

Fang and Hu were overjoyed: "Since it is the ancestral grave of the Sima family, then it is right!"

The tour guide rubbed his hands: "That place is very far away, it's not a scenic spot at all, and the road is not easy to walk..." The guides have always led a group, and the place where tickets and things are sold can generate kickbacks, and the last thing I don't want to go is a non-scenic spot.

"This is for the students to investigate, not for fun. I will add 100 yuan to you as a service fee, and help us find a reliable driver who is familiar with the road, will it work?" Hu Yixin smiled.

The tour guide said without saying a word: "Success."

Fang Sishen asked: "I don't know where the "Hejin County Chronicles" is stored? Is it a library, a museum, or a cultural center?"

"This... I really don't know." The tour guide was a little embarrassed, "I asked the people in the hotel to call and ask for you."

It took more than an hour to make a round of phone calls.It turned out that due to several demolition of the city, the old county annals before the Republic had long been lost. A new version was compiled ten years ago and stored in the cultural center.After finally contacting the staff of the cultural center who kept the keys, they were very excited when they heard that they came from the capital to collect folk songs.Unable to evade again and again, Hu Yixin coughed and reprimanded him like a class instructor, before the matter was settled.

On the contrary, the tour guide was more sensible, and laughed: "Hejin is a place where there are many leaders who come to inspect, otherwise how can the hotel be built in such a grand style! It's just that no leader has ever inspected the cultural center..."

Finalize, visit Yumen Ancient Ferry and Longmen Gorge in the afternoon, go to the cultural center to check the information on the second day, visit Xinfeng Simazu’s tomb on the third day, cross the river to visit the Hancheng Taishi Temple and Museum on the fourth and fifth days, and then return to Hejin , Take the train back to Beijing that night, and arrive in the capital on the sixth day, which is the afternoon of New Year’s Eve.

Fang Sishen followed the tour guide to find a nearby photocopying agency and printed out materials and handouts for the students.

After lunch, the hotel minibus carried the teachers and students from the capital to the Yumen Ancient Ferry on the bank of the Yellow River.

From a long distance, you can see the rushing and rolling of the muddy yellow river, and a steel cable bridge is built at the narrowest point.The water is bound by the stone walls on both sides, like a pot of muddy soup boiling madly on a high-fire stove, it seems to be able to melt the cable bridge.

"Yellow River, Yellow River, it turns out to be so yellow." A student murmured to himself.

The car stops at the bridge.When everyone got out of the car, they realized that the cliff under their feet was at least ten meters away from the water.The shore is full of flat-headed square cliffs, which are layered upon layer upon layer. From a distance, they only feel thick, but when they get close, they realize how steep they are.Because of being washed by the river all the year round, the cliff is barren and smooth like a mirror. Although there are still several steps away, people can't help but hold on to the guardrail tightly, for fear that if their feet slip away, they will be doomed.

Teacher Hu clapped his hands vigorously and called the students together to form a circle.

The students unfolded the materials in their hands and listened to Teacher Fang's explanation.The sound of the water is booming, and you have to let go of your voice to roar to hear clearly.

"Students, we are standing at Yumen Ancient Ferry. There is a stone tablet at the head of the bridge. You can go and observe it later. With the middle line of the bridge as the boundary, this side belongs to Jinzhou Hejin, and the other side belongs to Guanzhong Hancheng. Now please students look at both ends and ask, why is the bridge built here?"

Immediately a student replied: "Because this position is the narrowest."

Someone added: "Because the mountains on both sides are about the same height."

Fang Sishen nodded: "That's right. The cliffs on both sides of the strait stand like a gate. This is Longmen Gorge. It is said that the place where carp jump over can turn into a dragon." In the "Preface to Tai Shigong", it is said: "Qiansheng Longmen, farming and herding rivers and mountains Zhiyang.'Since it is called 'gate', there are naturally both sides, so which side of Longmen was Tai Shigong born? This is why, for 2000 years, Hejin and Hancheng have been competing for the title of Taishigong's hometown, and it has been unclear. reason."

"Ah!" The students suddenly realized as they looked at the cliffs on both sides of the bank separated by a river and connected by a steel bridge.

Fang Sishen held up the map in his hand: "Tai Shigong himself said that he grew up in the 'Sun of Rivers and Mountains'. There is no doubt that 'river' refers to the Yellow River, and 'mountain' refers to Longmen Mountain. According to the convention, Hejin is located on the north side of the Yellow River, so some people think that he should be from Hejin. However, many people also pointed out that the Yellow River here has only a very short section running from east to west, but the whole runs from north to south. The ancient place names also have "Shandong, Shuixi" Because of the habit of "Zhiyang', I believe that Hancheng, west of the Yellow River, is the hometown of Tai Shigong."

The students' interest was aroused, and they took a map to check the actual terrain carefully.

"So," Teacher Fang announced loudly, "Our task of collecting folk songs this time is to find out where Tai Shigong's real hometown is!"
