"It was the one who came to the village entrance when the stream broke. You said you lived on Xianqi Cliff. I told me not to get close to you."

The child's voice has not yet fallen out, and the sound is crisp.

"Justice Fang walked over to you just now, but you didn't see him."

"How could it be?"

"He went down to the mountain, look, that's not?" Seeing that the adults didn't believe it, the child pointed to the bottom of the mountain outside the village.

The mountain people chatting next to him were very surprised and suspicious. The man with good eyesight looked in the direction the child pointed for a while, and indeed saw someone walking towards the distance.

You need to stare carefully to find out the other party’s whereabouts. If you don’t pay attention, you will subconsciously ignore it.

His figure looks very familiar, and he is indeed Fang Xiansheng.

The villagers felt a little regretful.

…………

...

If you walk not far to the mountain, you will be the official road.

The road was repaired quite flat, with thin loess paving on the road, and as pedestrians and cars passed by, waves of dust floated up.

The river water bypasses the mountain, passes through the official road under the bridge, and flows southward.

Huanhua Creek beside Xianqi Cliff and the stream passing by Linxi Village will all flow into this river and flow into the river and into the sea.

Fang Chang walked up the official road lightly and walked slowly towards the west along the road.

Looking at the various pedestrians hurried on the road, he felt that he was the most leisurely one, and because of this, he was constantly being overtaken by passers-by, donkeys, mules, carriages and horses.

While walking, a carriage passed by him.

When the person in the car saw Fang Chang's appearance, he felt close to him for some reason, so he ordered the coachman to slow down, and then leaned his body and said to Fang Chang:

"This gentleman is walking in the same direction. Do you need to take a ride? The carriage tutorial is faster."

"Okay, thank you then."

Fang Chang agreed readily and then jumped into the car.

The car is decorated very exquisitely. Although it is not luxurious or expensive, it also shows the owner's background and is quite spacious.

Among them, a middle-aged man was riding in the car. The man was wearing a goatee and wearing a clean cotton robe, looking very energetic.

The carriage accelerated again, and the owner didn't care about Fang Chang's thick clothes and bowed and said:

"Jian Zhengchu, Xingqing Prefecture, returned from visiting relatives from Long'an Prefecture. I wonder where the teacher is going?"

Fang Chang didn't talk about his feet, but said after returning the gift: "It's long below, and a scattered person wants to go to the town ahead, which is only a dozen miles away. Thank you for your support."

"That's right. When you arrive at the town ahead, please ask Mr. Fang to get off the bus by yourself."

Jian Zhengchu didn't ask much. He called Fang Chang "Mr. Fang Chang" one by one, and Fang Chang also replied "Mr. Jian". The two had a brief conversation.

The two sides had a very shallow chat, mostly interesting things that were rootless and unreasonable. However, Fang's long conversation still surprised Mr. Jian, and he thought that he was very lucky to meet Mr. Fang during this trip.

There are drainage channels on both sides of the official road, but the street trees are not covered with shade. There are always shades in a separate section. Whenever there are big trees on the side of the road, you can always see three or two resting under the tree or drinking water and eating.

After walking down, he had already left the Yunzhong Mountain area and entered the plain area.

For a carriage, it takes nearly two hours to walk, and it takes only two quarters of an hour to get there.

Seeing that the town ahead was approaching, Fang Chang smiled and said, "I will go to the place ahead. Thank you Mr. Jian for taking me on a journey. I hope you will meet again in the mountains and rivers."

Jian Zheng first replied: "It is very pleasant to talk to Mr. Fang, and I hope to see you again if you have the chance."

The two bowed and said goodbye, then Fang Chang jumped out of the carriage, waved at the far away carriage, then tightened the package and walked towards the town.

The place to get off the bus was a stone bridge, with the bridgehead dozens of feet away from the town. The river at the foot of Yunzhong Mountain divided into forks, lying across the town, and the official road passed through the bridge and passed through the town.

The convenient transportation has activated the economy, making it relatively wealthy, and also made the official road pass through the town and turned into a clean and sturdy stone road.

Because it is close to the main traffic road, it is located on the road and eats the road. The stone road is surrounded by signs, half of which are catering and accommodation, which is very prosperous.

The low railing column at the entrance of the town is engraved with the "Fuhu Bridge".

A large stone poked beside the official road at the entrance of the town, with three big characters "Huqiao Town" engraved on it in the test body, and cinnabar is painted inside.

Well, this should be the work of a sir.

Just under this big rock with the name of the town written on it, several pedestrians were chatting, and the sound of conversation drifted into their long ears:

"Zhuzi, let me tell you that the reputation of Huqiao Town has a reason."

"How do you say it, Uncle San?"

"Did you see the bridge next to you? It is the Fuhu Bridge. According to legend, a long time ago, there was a man-eating tiger in Yunzhong Mountain. It hurt countless people and was extremely powerful. There are even rumors that it has become a spirit, specializing in selecting strong spirits and intensive people to nourish themselves."

"The evil tiger is fierce but extremely smart. Its traps, poisoning, siege... are all invalid. Many good hunters recruited from other places have been handed over to it. The county issued a recruitment order for this and offered a high reward, but an ordinary person came to respond."

"On ordinary person? Uncle San, what about the lower part?"

When the young man saw that his third uncle suddenly paused and couldn't help asking.

After keeping a secret, the older pedestrian continued to give in an enthusiastic manner: "That ordinary man is a pancake cooker who walks around the streets. He told the county magistrate that he had almost gotten into a lawsuit because the sugar oil he put in was too heavy in making cakes."

"It will kill people if they are too heavy?"

When I saw my nephew, I was fascinated by this story. This middle-aged passerby was even more excited. He told the story passed down with more hands and feet:

"Of course, heavy oil and sugar are delicious, but difficult to digest and are extremely harmful to the stomach and intestines. I have used poisons for evil tigers before, but they have never taken effect. The county magistrate would rather trust their own attitude and let the vendors try it."

"This cook cake vendor made several large baskets of heavy oil and sugar cook cakes overnight, which made several hunters carry them and fall on the road that the evil tiger must do. Then he looked through several hills and saw that the evil tiger was tempted by the fragrance when he passed by, ate all the big baskets in one breath and rested on the ground."

"After an hour or two, the tiger suddenly roared loudly, jumped and jumped, destroying trees, rocks and rushing to the bridge, and died. The county magistrate ordered the tiger to cut off the tiger, and saw that it had broken into pieces. It was because of the cooking cakes that had eaten too much oil and sugar that had died. Everyone praised the cooking cakes and their wonderful ideas."

"At that time, it was still a wooden bridge, and this town was also called another name. After the death of the evil tiger, the county magistrate paid for a rebuilding of a stone bridge, named it "Fuhu Bridge". The town was also called "Huqiao Town". Gradually, no one called the town's real name again, and finally the town simply changed its name."

The young man asked curiously: "Where is that hawker?"

"He completed what others could not do, and returned peace to his side. Therefore, he took a lot of rewards from the county, married a beautiful wife and concubine, opened a shop here, and specially sold his specialty cooked cakes."
