The entrance had many people to wait, Zhang Xiaohua leads a horse to arrive in front of the people, this stopped. Waits for Zhang Xiaolong turning over dismount, Zhang Xiaohua the Liu family who the reins of horses give. 当迎娶的队伍走到刘家大门口时,天色已经大亮。大门口已经有许多人正等着呢,张小花牵着马走到众人面前,这才停了下来。等张小龙翻身下马,张小花把马匹的缰绳交给过来的刘家人。 The people give Zhang Xiaolong to cup one hand in the other across the chest saying: „Bridegroom, congratulations.” Zhang Xiaolong also happily returns a courtesy to everybody, then, the people resign say/way to come, Zhang Xiaohua catches the eye looked, sees side of front door to have the wood/blockhead rack, put on the above of rack has drawn a bow. This is the custom of village, a First matter that bridegroom gets married shoots arrows to the day in bride's entrance three, means that expels all Evil Monster, in the past when others family/home took a wife, has looked, but, this little while Zhang Xiaolong arm injury, although was good, the practical training in field was also a problem, how can draw the archery? 众人都给张小龙拱手道:“新郎官,恭喜恭喜。”张小龙也高兴地给大家回礼,然后,众人都让出一个道儿来,张小花抬眼一看,就见大门的旁边有个木头架子,在架子的上面放了一张弓。这是乡间的规矩,新郎迎娶的第一件事就是在新娘的大门口向天射箭三支,意味着把所有的妖邪都赶跑,以往在别人家娶媳妇的时候,也都看过的,不过,这会儿张小龙的胳膊伤势虽然好了,田里的劳作还成问题呢,如何能拉弓射箭？ It seems like this matter can only do by best man Zhang Xiaohua, is, Zhang Xiaohua on the 12 or 13-year-old child, making him draw this bow and arrow, is too rather forced, the people somewhat looked at each other in blank dismay. Zhang Xiaolong thinks to walk to go forward, prepares to take the bow, Zhang Xiaohua was anxious, hurried to rush ahead first to hold on the Big Brother, said: „Big Brother, your arm was just good, how can draw this gadget? If there is anything to damage again, to waste all previous efforts, I come.” 看来这件事只能由伴郎张小花来做了,可是,张小花就十二三岁的孩子,让他拉这个弓箭,未免太牵强,众人都有些面面相觑了。张小龙想了想就走上前,准备去拿弓,张小花急了,赶紧抢上前一把拉住了大哥,说:“大哥,你的胳膊刚刚好,怎么能拉这个玩意儿？万一再有个什么损伤,岂不是前功尽弃,还是我来吧。” Zhang Xiaolong said: „Does not have relation(s), pulls open the archery, this vigor I have. You are young, where has to draw the archery the strength?” 张小龙笑着说:“没关系的,就是拉开射箭嘛,这个劲儿我还是有的。你还小,哪有开弓射箭的力气？” Zhang Xiaohua also said: „Big Brother, your this may look down on me, I can Kaiden plant crops, how not to have the strength, makes me try, if I were inadequate, you come again, we do not calculate lose face, you said that is?” 张小花也笑着说:“大哥,你这可就小瞧我了,我自己都能开田耕地了,怎么会没有力气,还是让我试试吧,如果我不成了,你再来,咱们也不算是丢面子,你说是不是？” Zhang Xiaolong one wants also to be, the best man works for the bridegroom in getting married in any case, Xiaohua really cannot pull open, that has to get up, it is estimated that Mister Liu knows that own arm is not very good, on the rack suspends should be a soft bow, does not need to pull open with the too big strength. 张小龙一想也是,反正伴郎在迎娶的时候就是替新郎做事的,小花实在拉不开,那就只好自己上了,估计刘先生知道自己的胳膊不够好,架子上摆的应该是一架软弓,不必用太大力气就能拉开的。 Before looking Zhang Xiaohua arrives at the rack, from and equally high rack takes that big bow, starts to feel that is very heavy, he had not drawn the bow and arrow, thinks that all bows are very heavy, has not cared, then, picks up one not to have the arrow of arrow from the frame, on the bow, then asked Zhang Xiaolong: „Big Brother, where toward shoots?” 就看张小花走到架子前,从跟自己一样高的架子上拿下那口大弓,入手感觉很是沉重,他本来就没有拉过弓箭的,以为所有的弓都是很沉重,也没有在意,然后,又从架上捡起一根没有箭头的箭,架在弓上,回头问张小龙:“大哥,往哪里射？” Zhang Xiaolong pointed at the sky outside village saying: „That side.” 张小龙指着村外的天空说:“那边吧。” Zhang Xiaohua complies with one sound, before studying, looks at the appearance of person, has gripped horse stance, then, was spatial to that day, making the vigor pull up the bowstring, but, that bowstring tied tight unexpectedly very much, Zhang Xiaohua has drawn probably three points of full, has not drawn, his cannot help but blushed, normally at this time he loosened the hand, shot the arrow and that's the end, but his First time drew the archery, moreover before looked that others were also draw the full moon, thinks that must pull open completely is good, therefore, he deeply inspired, two arms competed, sure enough, he felt that had a vigor from the arm. Gives birth, he drank one sound greatly, the bow and arrow immediately by pulling the full moon shape, the rosy-colored clouds at dawn outside his confident looking village, loosened also the tight bowstring, that arrow „whiz” 's one sound flew like Meteor, looks the arrow that went far away, Zhang Xiaohua really has a sense of joy at heart. 张小花答应一声,学着以前看人的样子,扎了个马步,然后,对着那天空,使劲儿拉起了弓弦,可是,那弓弦竟然很是紧绷,张小花拉了大概三分满,就拉不动了,他不由得一阵脸红,按说这时他松开手,把箭射出去就是了,可他第一次开弓射箭,而且以前看别人也都是拉得满月似地,以为都要完全拉开才行,于是,他又深吸一口气,两个胳膊一较劲,果不其然,他感觉有股劲儿又从胳膊中。生出,他大喝一声,弓箭立刻就被拉成了满月状,他信心满满的望了望村外的朝霞,松开也紧绷的弓弦,那箭就像流星般“嗖”的一声就飞了出去,看着远去的箭,张小花心里竟然有种愉悦感。 Remaining two arrow Zhang Xiaohua follow a set pattern, projects Bali Ravine them by far, waits for three arrows to shoot, Zhang Xiaohua felt that the both arms numb and aching, somewhat cannot lift, is unable bending to put on the rack, at this time the people applauded to acclaim the Zhang Xiaohua strength, only then Zhang Xiaolong saw exceptionally, he hurries to arrive at the Zhang Xiaohua front, received the bow, prepares to put on the rack it, actually unexpectedly in the hand sank, has hurried and caused a strength, just now caught, in the heart of Zhang Xiaolong was very surprised, this soft bow so heavy? However, this time people have encircled, did not allow his thin in addition thinking to put on the rack the bow, was crowded around by the people are entering Liu Family Courtyard, only left behind on that bow alone place rack. 剩下的两箭张小花都如法炮制,将它们远远地射出八里沟,等三箭射完,张小花感觉双臂酸麻,有些抬不起来,无法将弓放到架子上,这时众人都鼓掌赞叹张小花的力气,只有张小龙看到了异常,他赶紧走到张小花的面前,接过弓,准备把它放到架子上,却不料手中一沉,赶紧又使了点力气,方才接住,张小龙的心中很是惊讶,这软弓怎么如此的沉重？不过,这时的众人已经围了上来,不容他细加思索就把弓放到了架子上吧,被众人簇拥着走进刘家大院,只留下那弓孤零零的放在架子上。 While Zhang Xiaolong was crowded around Liu Family Courtyard, north a Bali Ravine hunting household, is packing the luggage to prepare to climb mountains to go hunting. He enters to put the hut of bow and arrow, not long afterwards, breathless coming out, asked his young married woman: „Did kid's mother, where place that bow on rack?” 就在张小龙被簇拥进刘家大院的同时,八里沟北头的张猎户,正在收拾行装准备上山打猎。他走进放弓箭的小屋,不多时,气急败坏的出来,问他的婆娘:“孩儿他娘,放在架子上的那口弓哪里去了？” His young married woman said strangely: „Which bow? How I know that hut I always do not enter.” 他的婆娘奇怪的说:“哪口弓？我怎么知道,那个小屋我从来都不进的。” Opened the hunting household to be anxious, said: „Is the bow of that five stone my ancestry hands down from generation to generation, on the place right rack on uppermost. The day before yesterday I also saw, today disappears, is it possible yesterday in family/home by thief?” 张猎户急了,说:“就是我祖辈传下来的那口五石的弓啊,就放在右边架子上最上边的。前天我还看见了呢,今天就不见了,难不成昨天家里遭贼了？” His young married woman renovated the breakfast on the top, at this time suddenly remembered anything to resemble, ran hurriedly, said: „I thought that the Mister Liu messenger who kid's dad, taught yesterday borrowed a soft bow, thinks that is uses to his son-in-law today, feared unable to pull open, urged specially wants, at that time I was tidying up the clothing to the child, made person take, I remember that you said on the above rack to have yourself to do are playing to use, I told him.” 他的婆娘本来在灶台上整治早饭,这时突然想起什么似的,急忙跑了出来,说:“我想起来了,孩儿他爹,昨天教书的刘先生差人来借一口软弓,想必是今天给他女婿用,怕拉不开,特意叮嘱要的,当时我正在给孩子收拾衣物,就让来人自己去拿的,我记得你说上边架子上有口你自己做着玩用的,我就跟他说了。” open/stretch Liehu asked: „Do others take your to look?” 张猎户问:“那人家拿出来你看没看？” His young married woman said ashamed: „Told me actually, but, is not the gadget that your reckless makes blindly, I am also disinclined to look, made him take away.” 他的婆娘羞愧的说:“倒是跟我说了,不过,不就是你瞎胡做的玩意儿嘛,我也懒得看,就让他拿走了。” open/stretch Liehu scolds immediately: „ Woman of your this ruined family, taking advantage of thing look not well, others took away our inherited things, you are also disinclined to come to see, moreover Mister Liu is always very good to us, the children in our village are he call, others borrow the soft bow definitely to have the reason specially, you are then good, give the bow that ten several years nobody has pulled open, doesn't this truncate the face of families specially?

Zhang Xiaolong Present also similarly faces this issue, Mister Liu is always the poetry book treats people, this full Yuan also mostly is a writer, understands the skill in martial arts not, coming out that otherwise Zhang Xiaohua that startled day three arrow nobody will not look at a moment ago. Although Mister Liu beforehand also has told own friend and student, oneself this son-in-law is the rube family background, extremely do not feel embarrassed him, the person but who, to be honest, Mister Liu this intelligent virtuous daughter keeps thinking about is not one two, today in unexpectedly is not encircles the person marrying by one, in this guest also really in several hearts not indignation, when Mister Liu undoable is very certainly obvious, how there are people of several good deeds on pondering over awkward Zhang Xiaolong in bride's issue, that Liu Yueyue naturally on is Liu Qian. The bridesmaids, this girl always do not fear the Lord of matter, moreover works also from the head, look a First issue is: Let Zhang Xiaolong write several characters, demonstrates the calligraphy. 这时的张小龙已经在张小花的陪伴下,走到了刘倩的闺房门前,按照乡里的规矩,这新郎要想让新娘开门,必须要回答新娘提出的问题,只有回答满意了,方能开门,其实提出问题的大多都是伴娘等人,新娘是不可能为难自己未来枕边人的。张小龙现在也同样面临这个问题,刘先生一向是诗书待人,这满院也大多都是文人,懂武艺的没有一个,否则刚才张小花那惊天的三箭也不会没人看的出来。虽然刘先生事先也跟自己的朋友和学生说过,自己这个女婿是泥腿子出身,不要太过为难他,不过,说实话,刘先生这个聪明贤惠的女儿惦记的人也不是一个两个,今天居然被一个不是自己圈里的人给娶走,这宾客中还真有几个心中不忿的,不过,当着刘先生的面当然不能做的很明显,有几个好事的人就琢磨着怎么在新娘的问题上为难张小龙,那刘月月当然就是刘倩的。伴娘,这丫头从来都是不怕事儿的主,而且做事也从不过脑袋,这不,第一个问题就是:让张小龙写几个字,展示一下书法。 This issue, Liu Qian in boudoir rebukes is staring Liu Yueyue, asked: „Whose idea is this? Didn't tell me one sound?” 这个问题一出,闺房里的刘倩就嗔怪的瞪着刘月月,问:“这是谁的主意？怎么也不告诉我一声？” Liu the sweet and delicate voice said every month: „Elder Sister, was outside one group of people said that this little while has swept the Elder Brother-In-Law face, was all right , after being good to supervise him, study calligraphy well, did you say?” 刘月月娇声说:“姐姐,就是外面的一群人说的,这会儿扫了姐夫的面子,也没事嘛,也好督促他以后好好的学书法,你说呢？” In this Liu Qian heart smiles bitterly, what can I say? Your issue came out, can I receive? Oh, does not only know whether after Xiaolong│Little Dragon can, blames me. 这刘倩心中苦笑,我能说什么？你的问题已经出来了,我能收回来吗？唉,只不知道小龙是否会以后怪罪我。 Mister Liu of hall is on the face somewhat is also ugly, this is obviously ugly to own son-in-law, but, wedding tasteful is a liveliness, how whatever to deliberately create trouble cannot blame, looked how Zhang Xiaolong deals with, is really not good scrawls, does not have anything, in any case is the farmer. 大厅的刘先生也是脸上有些难看,这明显就是给自己的女婿难看嘛,不过,婚事讲究的就是一个热闹,任凭怎么胡闹都不能怪罪的,还是看张小龙如何应付吧,实在不行就瞎写个,也没什么的,反正本来就是农夫嘛。 The complexion of Zhang Xiaolong two brothers also very strange, feared that anything comes anything, in the Zhang Xiaolong heart sighed, walks to go forward, preparation blindly reckless wrote several to deal with consider as finished, at this time Zhang Xiaohua held on Big Brother’s arm to say once again: „Is patient, Big Brother, I try.” 张小龙兄弟二人的脸色也是十分的怪异,怕什么来什么,张小龙心中叹口气,走上前,准备瞎胡的写几个应付算了,这时张小花又一次拉住大哥的胳膊说:“稍安勿躁,大哥,我来试试。” „Can you, be good?” Some Zhang Xiaolong doubts. “你,能行么？”张小龙有些疑惑。 The Zhang Xiaohua racket his hand said: „Those words, I am not good, you come again.” 张小花拍拍他的手说:“还是那句话,我不行,你再来。” Zhang Xiaohua walks to go forward, said to the people: „, Is that proverb, my Big Brother’s arm injury is not good, this character is I writes.” 张小花走上前,对众人说:“诸位,还是那句老话,我大哥的胳膊伤势未好,这字还是我来代写把。” Then, arrives in front of shop good writing brush, ink, paper, ink stone, lowers the head the ponder moment, suddenly eye one bright, he raised the head saying: „, Adds to the fun today, did not use this writing brush, ink, paper, ink stone.” 说完,走到铺好的笔墨纸砚面前,低头沉思片刻,突然眼睛一亮,他抬头说:“诸位,今日助兴,就不用这笔墨纸砚了。” Everybody said in surprise: „What does that use?” 大家奇道:“那用什么？” Zhang Xiaohua asked: „Has the ready-made swab? I write several large characters with the swab to everybody today.” 张小花问:“有没有现成的拖把？我今日用拖把给大家写几个大字。” „Swab? How does that write?” Some person of strange asking. During the speeches, some people had brought the swab, Zhang Xiaohua looked for a basin, rubbing good black ink pours in the basin, admits in the swab the basin, moistened moistening, both hands has been grasping the pole of swab, in careful fermentation, took up the swab on the azure flagstone of Mister Liu yard flying of dragons and dancing of phoenixes writes down two large characters at heart: „Misty”. “拖把？那怎么写？”有人奇怪的问。说话间,已经有人把拖把拿了过来,张小花找了个盆,把磨好的墨倒在盆里,又把拖把放进盆里,沾了沾,双手握着拖把的杆,在心里细细的酝酿一下,拿起拖把就在刘先生大院的青石板上龙飞凤舞的写下两个大字:“缥缈”。 What these two characters write is antique, elegant is full of flavor, Zhang Xiaohua this forms a coherent whole, made the people who surrounded tarry unexpectedly. Hall Mister Liu hear of outside of clamored a piece, suddenly silent exceptionally, came out from the hall, when he saw the two characters on azure flagstone, did not speak, the careful taste, was unexpectedly crazy. 这两个字写的是古色古香,飘逸的韵味十足,张小花这一气呵成,竟让围观的众人呆住了。大厅的刘先生听的外面喧哗一片,突然寂静异常,也从大厅出来,等他看到青石板上的两个字,也不说话,细细的品味,竟也痴了。 Mentioned „Misty” these two characters, the book was the character on Command Tile, on the same day after Zhang Xiaohua invites the person recognized, in heart simulation more than once, taste, practiced how to write, other characters, for example: Zhang Xiaohua, he cannot write in any event, but these two characters such as have engraved deeply print in his heart equally, naturally has words at fingertips and writes with facility, naturally, depends on the level that he has not entered a school, writes the writing brush character definitely to be scoffed, but writes with swab gadget, naturally never mind the technique and so on thing, 说起“缥缈”这两个字,本就是令牌上的字,当日张小花请人认出后,就在心中不止一次的模拟,品味,练习如何写,其它的字,比如:张小花,他无论如何是写不出的,而这两个字已经如镌刻一样深深地印入他的心中,自然是信手拈来,当然,就凭他没有入学的水平,写毛笔字肯定是被人耻笑的,而用拖把这玩意儿写,自然就不必介意手法之类的东西,
