At this time, it was "the soup was cut by the flood and the mountains were vast"; Shun Ye's people [2] and [3] are not all crowded on the top of the mountain above the water. Some are tied to the top of trees, some are sitting on rafts, and some rafts are covered with sheds. Seen from the shore, they are very poetic.

The news from far away came from the raft. Everyone finally knows that the gunman has been treated with water for nine years, and it has no effect. The emperor was furious and sent him to Yushan for exile. It seems that his son, Master Wen Ming, took over. [4] His birth name is Ayu. [5] The famine has been going on for a long time, the university has already been dissolved, and even the kindergarten has no place to open, and the people are a little confused. Just on the mountain of culture [6], many literati gathered, and their food was transported from the country with seven arms [7] by flying cars, so they were not afraid of lack, so they could also study knowledge. However, most of them are opposed to or simply don't believe in the world.

There really is such a surplus in the world.

Once a month, as usual, there is a rustling in the air, and the louder and faster, the car can see clearly. There is a flag in the car and a yellow circle in the hair. Five feet from the ground, just hang a few baskets, others don't know what's inside, only hear voices from top to bottom:

"Ancient forest!" 〔8〕

"Gollum for miles ..."

"All right!" 〔 10〕

The flying car flew to a strange country, leaving no sound in the sky, and the scholars were silent. This is what everyone is eating. Unique water waves around the mountain, hitting the stone, constantly surging and ringing. Woke up after lunch, full of energy, so the theory overwhelmed the sound of the waves.

A scholar on crutches said, "If Yu is the son of Gun, he will not succeed in harnessing water." . "I have collected many genealogies of princes and rich families, done a lot of research, and come to a conclusion: the descendants of the rich are all rich, and the descendants of the bad guys are all bad guys-this is called' inheritance'. Therefore, if Gun doesn't succeed, his son Yu certainly won't succeed, because fools don't make smart people! "

"All right!" A scholar who doesn't take crutches said.

"But you should think about our emperor's father [1 1]," said another scholar without a cane.

"He used to be stubborn, but now he has changed. If you are a fool, you will never change ... "

"All right!"

"It's a complete waste of time," another scholar said while eating, and the tip of his nose was swollen red at once. "You were cheated by rumors. In fact, there is no such thing as Yu. Yu is a bug. Can worms control water? I don't think there is a gun. The gun is a fish. Can fish and fish control water? " When he said this, he kicked his own foot and looked very hard.

"But there is a gun. Seven years ago, I saw him go to the foot of Kunlun Mountain to enjoy plum blossoms. "

"So, his name is wrong. His name is probably not a gun, but a person! As for Yu, that must be a bug. I have a lot of evidence to prove his falsehood, please comment ... "

So he stood up bravely, pulled out a knife, scraped off the bark of five big pine trees, ground them into pulp with leftover bread crumbs and water, mixed them with charcoal powder, and wrote a textual research on killing Ayu on the tree with a small tadpole, which took 3927 days of hard work. But anyone who wants to see it has to take out ten tender elm leaves, and if he lives on a raft, give him a shell of freshwater moss instead.

There is water everywhere, so we can't hunt or farm. As long as we live, we have all our leisure time, and many people come to see us. After being squeezed under the pine tree for three days, there were sighs everywhere, some admiration and some piranhas. But at noon on the fourth day, a countryman finally spoke, when the scholar was eating fried noodles.

"In the crowd, there is a person named Ayu," said the countryman. Besides,' jade' is not a bug. For us country people, it is a simple word. Masters write' Yu', [12] is a big monkey ... "

"People have called the big monkey? ..... "Scholars jumped up, hurriedly swallow a mouthful of noodles without chewing, nose red to purple, shouted.

"Yes, there are even dogs and cats."

"Mr. Bird Head, don't argue with him," the scholar with a stick put down his bread and stopped in the middle. "Country people are fools. Take your family tree, "he shouted, turning to the countryman." I will surely find that your previous generation were all fools ... "

"I have never had a family tree ..."

"Bah, my research is not accurate, but you are hateful!"

"But it doesn't need a family tree. My theory is not wrong. " Mr. Bird Head said more angrily. "In the past, many scholars wrote to support my theory, and I brought all those letters here ..."

"No, no, no, that should check the genealogy ..."

"But I don't have a family tree," said the fool. "Now it's so hectic, the traffic is inconvenient, and it's harder to wait for your friend to write approval as evidence than to do Dojo in the snail shell. The proof is right in front of you: your name is Mr. Bird Head. Is it really a bird's head, not a person? "

"Hum!" Mr bird's head turned purple with anger. "You insult me like this! Say I'm not human! I want to go to Hao Tao with you [13] and settle down legally! If I'm really not human, I'd rather make a big breakthrough-beheading, you know? Otherwise, you should sit back. Just wait, don't move, wait for me to finish fried noodles. "

"Sir," replied the countryman numbly and calmly, "as a scholar, you should always know that it is afternoon and everyone else is hungry. Hatefully, a fool's stomach is the same as a wise man's: he should be hungry, too. I'm terribly sorry. I'm going to catch moss. After you have stated the case, I will turn myself in. " So he jumped on the raft, picked up the net bag, fished for grass and walked a long way. The spectators gradually separated, and Mr. Bird's head turned red and began to eat fried noodles. The scholar on crutches shook his head.

But whether "Yu" is a bug or a person is still a big question.

I really seem to be a nobody.

Half a year has passed, and flying cars from strange countries have come eight times. Nine out of ten raft residents who have read the words on pine trees have beriberi, but there is no news from the new official in charge of water control. It was not until the tenth flying car came that there was new news that there was such a person, the son of a gun, who was released by Jane to the Minister of Water Resources [14]. Three years ago, he started the festival in Jizhou [15] and will come here soon.

Everyone is a little excited, but indifferent, and don't believe it, because everyone has heard of this unreliable rumor.

But this time, it seems that the news is reliable. After more than ten days, almost everyone said that the minister really came, because someone went out to catch floating grass and saw the official ship with his own eyes; He also pointed to a pimple on Wu Qin's head and said that he ate the flying stones of the officers and men in order to avoid being too slow: this is the evidence that the minister did arrive. From then on, this man was very famous and busy. Everyone scrambled to see the pimple on his head and almost sank the raft. Later, some scholars called him, studied him carefully, and decided that his pimple was really a pimple, so Mr. Bird Head could no longer hold prejudices and had to give others and himself textual research.

I went to collect folk songs.

The arrival of a large array of single-board boats was about twenty days after a knot was broken. On each boat, 20 officers and men paddle, 30 officers and men carry spears, and there are flags on the front and back. As we approached the top of the mountain, gentlemen and scholars lined up on the shore to meet them. After a long time, two chubby middle-aged officials emerged from the largest ship, surrounded by about twenty warriors in tiger skins, and took the people who greeted them to the stone house on the top of the mountain.

The people inquired about both sides of the land and water, only to know that the two commissioners were just inspecting, not to themselves.

The official sat in the middle of the stone house, ate bread and began to investigate.

"The disaster is not serious, and the food can be perfunctory," said a scholar representative and Miao linguistics expert. "Bread falls from mid-air every month; There is no shortage of fish. It's a little earthy, but it's very fat, my Lord. As for those inferior people, they have plenty of elm leaves and seaweed, and they are' full of food all day long and have no intention'-they just don't bother, just eat these. We have tasted it, it's not bad, but it's very special ... "

"In addition," said another scholar who studied Shennong's materia medica, "the leaves of elm [16] contain vitamin W [17]; There is iodine in seaweed, which can cure scrofula, both of which are very hygienic. "

"All right!" Another scholar said. The big shots glared at him.

"Where are the drinks?" The scholar of Shennong Materia Medica went on to say. "How much they want, ten thousand generations can't drink. Unfortunately, it contains a little loess. It should be distilled before drinking. I have instructed many times, but they are stubborn and absolutely unwilling to do so, so they have countless patients ... "

"Even the flood, they didn't survive?" A gentleman with a long beard and a maroon robe added. "When the water hasn't come, they are too lazy to fill it. When the flood comes, they are too lazy to stop ... "

"Yes, it's called losing one's soul," said Fuxi, a screenwriter with a moustache sitting in the back row. "I have tasted the original Pamirs, the wind is great, plum blossoms are in full bloom, Bai Yunfei is in full bloom, the price of gold is rising, and the mouse is sleeping. I saw a teenager with a cigar in his mouth and a layer of fog on his face ... hahaha! There is no way ... "[14]

"All right!"

We talked for a long time. Senior officials listened very carefully. Finally, they were told to draft a public statement, preferably with a way to explain the consequences.

So big got off the boat. The next day, I said it was because I was tired on the road, I didn't have a job, and I didn't see any guests. On the third day, the scholar invited Yan Gai Gu Song to the highest peak, and went fishing for Monopterus albus behind the mountain for the second half of the day, playing until dusk. On the fourth day, I said it was because I was tired of inspection, I didn't work and I didn't see any guests. On the afternoon of the fifth day, I met with people's representatives.

Four days ago, representatives of the lower classes were elected, but no one went, saying that they had never met officials. So most people assume that the one with a pimple on his head has had the experience of seeing an official. The knot that had been calmed down suddenly hurt like a needle. He cried and insisted: Either be a representative or die for me! Everyone around him, day and night accused him of his righteousness, saying that he is an egoist who ignores the public interest and China will not tolerate it; To put it more fiercely, as for picking up his fist and sticking it in front of his nose, he is responsible for the flood. He was thirsty and felt that it was better to risk public welfare than to die on a raft, so he made great determination and agreed on the fourth day.

Everyone praised him, but a few warriors were a little jealous.

It was the morning of the fifth day, and everyone dragged him up early in the morning and stood on the shore to listen to the call. Sure enough, the big shot called. His legs trembled at once, but he made up his mind at once. After making up his mind, he yawned twice and his eyes were swollen. He felt as if he were floating in the air.

Strangely, the officers and men with spears and the samurai in tiger skins did not scold him, but locked them in the middle cabin. The cabin was covered with bearskin, leopard skin, several crossbows and many bottles and cans, which dazzled him. I took a look and saw two fat officials sitting on it, opposite me. He didn't dare to see it clearly.

Are you a representative of the people? One of the big shots asked.

"They asked me to come up." He looked at the wormwood pattern of the leopard skin in the bilge and replied.

"How are you?"

"..." He didn't understand the meaning and didn't answer.

"Are you all right?"

"It's okay to ask adults for blessing ..." He thought for a moment and whispered, "Apply perfunctory ... gangsters ..."

"What about the food?"

"Yes, leaves, water moss ..."

"Can you still eat?"

"Let's eat. We are used to everything and can eat. Only some small animals still want to bark, and people's hearts are getting worse and worse. Damn it, we will beat him. "

The adults all laughed, and one of them said to the other, "This guy is honest."

Hearing the praise, this guy was very happy and brave, and gushed:

"We always have a way to think. For example, seaweed, the best is to make jade soup, and elm leaves are a kind of soup. You can't peel off all the bark, leave one. Then, next spring, the branches will still grow leaves and harvest. If, thanks to adults, eels are caught ... "

But adults don't seem to like it. One of them yawned twice in a row and interrupted his speech, saying, "You'd better bring it up together and explain your contribution to the aftermath."

"None of us can write ..." He said shyly.

"Can't you read? This is really not wanting to make progress! There is no way, just pick up whatever you eat! "

He retreated in surprise and joy, touching a knot in one's heart and scars, and immediately conveyed the instructions of the adults to the residents on the shore, in the trees and in the row, shouting, "This is for the top!" " Clean, meticulous, decent! ……"

All the residents were busy at the same time, washing leaves, peeling bark and fishing for moss, which made a mess. He himself is a version of sawing wood to make submission boxes. There are two articles specially polished, and I went to the top of the mountain overnight to ask scholars to write them. One made a box cover and wrote "Shoushan Fuhai", and the other made a flat raft for himself to show his dignity and write "Chengtang". But the literati are only willing to write an article "Shoushan Fuhai".

Two dignitaries returned to Kyoto, and other investigators generally came back one after another, but Yu didn't. They rested at home for a few days, and colleagues from the Water Conservancy Bureau held a big banquet in the station and made a dinner for them. There are three kinds of fulushou, and at least 50 big shells are obtained [19]. This is a busy day. Before dusk, all the guests and friends arrived, but the yard was already brightly lit, and the smell of beef in Dingli penetrated into the nose of the warrior [2 1] outside the door, and everyone swallowed together. After three rounds of drinking, many senior officials talked about the scenery along the water town, such as reeds like snow, muddy water like gold, plump eels, slippery moss and so on. After a little tipsy, I took out everyone's food collection, which was full of delicious food.

On the wooden box, there are words written, some of which are Fuxi's gossip style [22] and some of Cang Xie's ghost crying style [23]. It's the first time for everyone to appreciate these words. After almost finished typing, they decided to take the piece with the words "peaceful country and people's safety" as the first one, because it is not only simple and difficult to recognize, but also decent and can be declared to the history museum.

After evaluating the uniqueness of China, the cultural issue has finally come to an end, so let's look at the contents in the box: everyone.

Praise the exquisiteness of the cake unanimously. However, it was probably because of too much wine, so people talked about it one after another: some people took a bite of pine nut cake and were very salivating.

Appreciate its fragrance and say that you will retire tomorrow [24] and enjoy this retirement life; Bite a cypress cake, but said

It hurts its tongue because of its coarse quality and bitter taste. It's not easy for a monarch or a minister to encounter such trouble. A few jumped on it again.

Go, want to grab the cake they have bitten, and say that an exhibition will be held soon to raise money. These are all to be shown. It's bad to bite too much.

Unstable.

There is also a commotion outside the station. A group of beggars-like big men, with black faces and old clothes, broke through the blocked traffic.

Break into the boundary of the station. The guards shouted and quickly crossed the bright square to block their way.

"What? -understand! " This token is a slender figure, with thick hands and thick feet, and said aloud blankly.

As soon as the guards looked intently in the dim light, they stood at attention respectfully, raised their heads and let them in before stopping breathing.

A woman in a dark blue homespun robe came from behind with a child in her arms.

"Why? Don't you know me? " She wiped the sweat from her forehead with her fist and asked in surprise.

"Mrs Yu, how can we not know your family?"

"So, why don't you let me in?"

"Jade lady, this NianTouEr, having a hard time, from this year on, to change customs, men and women are different. since

Women are not allowed to enter the yamen, not only here, but also you. This is an order from above, and we can't blame it. "

Mrs. Yu stayed for a while, raised her eyebrows, turned around and shouted:

"This kill thousands of knives! What are you mourning for? Go through your own door and go to your funeral without looking in! be an official

Officer, what are the advantages of being an official? Be as careful as your old man, you will be banished, but you will forget it when you fall into the pool.

6〕! This heartless killing thousands of knives! ……"

At that time, there was also a commotion in the lobby of the station. Everyone wants to run away when they see a group of fools running.

But I couldn't see the dazzling weapon, so I crustily skin of head and looked carefully. It's close. The first one is dark and thin.

But from the look, I know he is Yu; The rest are naturally his entourage.

This scare scared everyone's wine away, and a rustle of clothes immediately retreated below. I went straight across to

Seats, sitting on it, about just like, or born crane knee wind [27], don't sit, and scattered.

I lost my foot and pointed my big foot at the dignitaries without socks. My soles are covered with chestnut calluses. The attache sits in different seats.

His left and right sides.

"Did you return to Beijing today?" A bold subordinate, kneeling in front, asked respectfully.

"You sit closer!" I didn't answer his question, but just told everyone. "How's it going?"

All the senior officials looked at each other, walked on their knees, and sat at the bottom of the remnant banquet, looking at the chewed pine nut cakes and chewed ones.

Bovine bone. Very uncomfortable-but afraid to call the catering service provider to collect it.

"Your Excellency," a senior official finally said. "It seems-very impressive. The yield of pine bark aquatic plants is very high;

Where are the drinks? That's rich. People are honest. They are used to it. Your honor, they are all good at enduring pain,

Famous people in the world. "

Another official said: "Beizhi has drafted a fund-raising plan." . "Ready to open a strange food exhibition,

Another lady, Miss Kui [28], was invited to do a fashion show. Only tickets are sold, stating that there will be no fundraising at the meeting. Then, come and have a look.

A little more. "

"This is very good." I said, bending down to him.

"But the first thing is to send a team of big rafts to take the Jinshi to the plateau." The third official said:

"At the same time, we will send people to inform strange countries and let them know the culture we admire. It is good to send aid here every month.

A scholar introduced here is also very interesting. They believe that culture is the lifeblood of a country, and scholars are culture.

Soul, as long as culture exists, so does China, and everything else is secondary ... "

"They think China has too many people," said the first official. "Reducing it is also the road to peace. and

Those are just fools, and the joys and sorrows are never as subtle as those of the wise. Knowing people's deliberations must first rely on the Lord.

For example, Shakespeare's view [29] ... "

"Fuck off!" I thought to myself, but he said loudly, "I know the method after investigation before:

Yan' is really wrong. You should use' guide' in the future! I wonder what you think? "〔30〕

Quiet as a grave; The faces of senior officials have also died, and many people still feel sick, so I'm afraid they will have to call in sick tomorrow.

Fake.

"This is the way of Chiyou!" A brave young official got angry quietly.

"My humble opinion is that adults seem to have withdrawn their orders." An official with white hair and beard felt it at this moment.

The rise and fall of the world depends on his mouth, so he put his heart on the line, ignored life and death, and resolutely protested: "Yan is the boss."

Chengfa. If you don't change your father's ways for three years, you can be said to be filial. -The boss has been promoted to heaven for less than three years. "

I didn't make a sound

"Besides, how much effort has the boss made? Borrowed God's fallow soil [3 1] to drown the flood, although it touched God's.

Angry, the depth of the flood is a little shallow. This seems to be cured as usual. "Another official with a white beard.

Said he was the adopted son of mother Yu's uncle.

I didn't make a sound

"I don't think adults are as good as the godfather's method [32]," a fat official saw Yu silent and thought he wanted to

I was so impressed that I spoke loudly with a little frivolity, but my face was still covered with oil and sweat. "According to the French, save their homes. adult

I may not know how people talk about bosses ... "

"In short,' Yan' is a good way to evaluate the world." I'm afraid that the old officer with white beard and white hair will make mistakes with the fat man.

Come on, say it. "Other people, the so-called' modern' people, and the former Chiyou family are not good at this point." 〔3

Yu Xiaoxiao: "I know. Some people say that my father has become a yellow bear, and some people say that he has become a three-legged turtle [3]

4], some people say that I am seeking fame, Tully. Just say it. What I want to say is that I checked the situation of Yamazawa and asked people's opinions.

Look, I have seen through the truth and made up my mind. I have to "guide" anyway! These colleagues also agree with me. "

He raised his hand and pointed to both sides. White beard, beautifully dressed, beautiful, fat and sweaty, fat and not sweaty.

Officials followed his fingers and saw a row of beggars with dark skin, motionless and silent, smiling like iron.

Like an actor.

After yeyu left, time passed quickly. Unconsciously, the situation in the capital became more and more prosperous. First of all, rich people have

Some people wear cocoon and silk robes, and then they see big fruit shops selling oranges and grapefruit, and big silk shops hanging plaids; Feast of the rich

There are excellent soy sauce, stewed shark's fin and cold sea cucumber on the table; Later, they actually had a bearskin plate and a fox coat, and the lady also wore red.

Gold earrings and silver bracelets.

As long as you stand at the gate, there is always something new to see: a bus will come to bamboo arrows today, and a batch of pine boards will come tomorrow, sometimes.

I have carried strange stones that make rockeries, and sometimes I mentioned fresh fish that make raw fish; Sometimes a large group of turtles, one foot or two inches long, will shrink.

With a bamboo cage on his head, he got on the bus and pulled it to the imperial city.

"Mom, look, what a big turtle!" As soon as the children saw it, they ran up screaming and surrounded the car.

"Kid, get out of here! This is the treasure of the long live grandfather, be careful to behead! "

However, the news about Master Yu also increased with the arrival of the treasure in Beijing. In front of people's eaves, under trees by the roadside, everyone

Everyone is talking about his story; The most important thing is how he turned into a yellow bear at night and dredged nine rivers arch by arch with his mouth and claws.

[35] How can we ask the heavenly soldiers to catch the monster Wu who makes waves? The town is at the foot of Guishan Mountain. Lord Shun Di.

Things, but no one mentioned, to [36], but also talk about prince Dan Zhu [37] is worthless.

The news that Yu will return to Beijing has already spread. Every day, a group of people always stand at the gate to see if his ceremony is coming.

Let's go Not exactly. However, the news is getting tighter and tighter, and it seems to be more true. One cloudy and sunny morning, he was finally among the people.

In the crowd, I entered the imperial city of Jizhou. There are no rituals in front, but a large number of beggars are like officials. The last one is one.

A big man with rough hands and feet, a black face and a yellow beard, and slightly bent legs was holding a big stone with a black spire-given by Shunye.

"Xuangui", repeatedly saying "Excuse me, excuse me, make way, make way", entered the palace from the crowd.

Yes

The people cheered and discussed outside the palace gate, and the sound was like the sound of Zhejiang water.

Sitting on the throne of the dragon, Mr. Shun is old and tired, but he seems a little frightened at this time. When I arrived, Lian

Busy polite stood up, li guo, Hao Tao to social parties, shun said:

"If you say something nice, I'll listen to you."

"Hum, what can I say?" Yu Jian replied. "I just want to breed every day!"

"What is' breeding'? Hao Tao asked.

"The flood is huge," Yu said. "The vast Hu Aishan Xiangling was submerged in the water. I take the bus by land and sit by the water.

Boat, sledge, dirt road, sedan chair, mountain road. Go to the mountain and cut down a tree. He Yi will give everyone food and meat. Fang Tian

Water flows into Sichuan, and Sichuan water flows into the sea. We ate something rare with Ji. If things are not enough, they will be adjusted to make up. move

Go home. Everyone was quiet, and these places became like this. "

"Yes, yes, these words are really good!" Hao Tao praised.

"alas!" Yu said. "Be careful, be quiet. If you have a conscience, genius will still give you benefits! "

Junko sighed and entrusted him with the management of state affairs. If you have an opinion, say it to your face, not speak ill of it behind your back. I agreed as soon as I saw Yu.

He sighed again and said, "Don't be like Dani. He doesn't listen and just likes to wander. He had to punt on land and make trouble at home.

I can't live any longer, which I really don't like! "

"I asked for a wife and left in four days," Yu replied. "Gave birth to kai, nor is it his son. So it can be cured.

Water, divided into five laps, almost five thousand miles, counting twelve States, reached the seaside. Five leaders have been set up, all of which are very good. It's ok to have meows.

No, you must be careful! "

"My world is really a whole battle!" Shunye also praised.

So Hao Tao and Shun also stood in awe and bowed their heads. After leaving North Korea, he quickly issued a special order calling for

All people should learn from my behavior, otherwise, they will be punished immediately.

This first caused the panic of the merchants. Fortunately, since Yu returned to Beijing, his attitude has changed a little: eating and drinking don't take exams.

Investigate, but it is generous to make sacrifices and ceremonies; Clothes are casual, but they should look good at court and at festivals.

Yes Therefore, the market has not been greatly affected. Soon, the businessman said that yeyu's behavior should be studied, and so should Gao Ye's new law.

Very good; Finally, it was so calm that all the animals could dance and the phoenix flew in to join in the fun. 〔40〕
