The Drunkard of the Tang Dynasty"
The scenery inside is so picturesque that it makes people fascinated. The excerpt is as follows:
There are many shops on both sides of the street, and the afterglow of the evening sun shines lightly on the red bricks and green tiles or the brightly colored eaves of the pavilions, adding to the prosperous Luoyang City evening scene in front of you. A bit hazy and poetic.
Walking, in front of and behind you are faces of Tang people who are either old, elegant, fresh, or worldly. Cars and horses are sparkling, and people are flowing like a weave. Not far away, there is a faint sound of merchants with a lot of enthusiasm. Penetrating shouts, and occasionally a long neigh of a horse, Xiao Rui felt as if he was in a colorful and rich picture.

Wandering casually on the bustling street, my feet felt light. The brilliant sunshine shines in the green tiles and red walls everywhere, the abrupt cornices, the high-flying shop sign flags, the sparkling cars and horses, the endless flow of pedestrians, the The calm and comfortable smiling faces all reflect the contentment of the people in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
"If you ask about the prosperity and failure of ancient and modern times, please just look at Luoyang City." Thousands of years of history come to mind, and the landscape of Luoyang is so close and within reach. The hot wind was blowing on his face, walking among the people of the Tang Dynasty. Xiao Rui looked at and savored the bustle and bustle of Luoyang in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. He felt happy for no reason and sighed again: Luoyang was a world-famous city at that time and the eastern end of the Silk Road. It is the city with the longest history of being a capital in Chinese history. However, this famous city has become a battleground for military strategists and a battlefield between two armies countless times. The magnificent palaces and bustling urban areas have been reduced to ruins several times and prospered several times.
Whether it is the busy bustling city in the city or the manor in the mountains and rivers outside the city, they all have a dreamlike look, the lingering fragrance of the poet's pen and the lingering laughter of the drinkers. At this time, Luoyang, the companion capital, was written into poems and poems by poets, stuffed in a wine jar or a box, and drank alone, had gatherings, or walked.
One city is prosperous and half the city is smokey, and many people are intoxicated. This is the taste of Luoyang.
Xiao Rui casually walked into a wine shop on the roadside, drank a few bottles of weak wine, ate a plate of soy sauce beef that Luoyang people would never tire of eating, and silently knelt on the bench and listened. While listening to the banter-like teasing sounds of the drinkers in the wine shop, as well as the vulgar singing of the low-class singers sitting on the seats, I looked at the leisurely and leisurely people outside the open door of the wine shop. Pedestrians leaving.
The mood gradually relaxed. In this strange yet familiar Luoyang more than a thousand years ago, in such an unknown small wine shop, the time traveler Xiao Rui finally completely completed the "psychological transformation of time travel" ". He understands, he is aware, he is helpless, he is excited, whether he wants it or not, he has become a Tang Dynasty through and through, just like the rude drinker in this wine shop, just like the pedestrians walking on the street.
After walking out of the wine shop, in the city with drunken eyes, two or three dull-witted sparrows couldn't help but take a nap among the ancient trees beside the street, which were in a trance.
The residual clouds are like mats, rolling up the smoke and noise outside the city. The Dandanluo water washes Wu Dai's brushstrokes in the wind. The plump girl with a charming smile on her face who is half leaning against the door of the brothel, the charming girl who has not yet faded away from the drunkenness. On the face, Luoyang of the Tang Dynasty was laid out in Xiao Rui's eyes and dreams.

The lights in Yihong Building are bright, and this building has been booked by the Luoyang Drinking Party. , so there will be no guests tonight. The only guests were these dozen or so prominent wine industry bosses in Luoyang City.
Beyond the door curtain, there is a singer playing the elegant and pleasant guqin. The sandalwood scent is gentle, and the sound of the piano echoes in the hall. A group of winemakers either knelt on the benches or simply sat on the floor, holding gorgeous wine cups in their hands, closing their eyes and listening to the pure music of the piano. The people of the Tang Dynasty were very elegant, and even these winemakers were no exception. However, no one knows whether this elegant attitude is fake.

Long and leisurely strolling, Xiao Rui walked in the noisy Luoyang City Looking at the busy Luoyang people in front of him, he couldn't help but feel ashamed: it seemed that he was the most idle person in Luoyang City.
From the other end of Luoyang Bridge to brother-in-law Wang's house, there is more than half of Luoyang City in between. The further we walked towards Wang's house, the louder and quieter the noise became and became quieter and quieter. Xiao Rui stopped and touched the fine beads of sweat on his forehead. Beyond this quiet street was the Wang family.
This is an almost deadly quiet alley. Xiao Rui looked up at the sky. The sky was blue and the sun was bright. He couldn't find the feeling of "walking alone with an oil-paper umbrella" in Dai Wangshu's lonely rainy alley. He could only laugh to himself that he was bored, and then walked forward slowly. go.
On both sides of the alley are dilapidated and simple mossy courtyard walls adjacent to civilian courtyards. Some courtyard walls are even covered with dense green ivy vines. Under the long and narrow shadows, it seems that this summer in Luoyang The sweltering heat has gone away a bit, and I feel a little cooler.
Before walking too far, a low, suppressed cry and sobs could be heard not far ahead, accompanied by the sound of banging against the wall. Xiao Rui was stunned and walked a few steps quickly when he saw a young man in civilian clothes banging his head against the wall at the door of a small house. His hands were painfully grasping the wet wall, and dust was flying down.

The sky is getting colder, and when the "Song of the Three Immortals in Drinking" is sung in Luoyang City, In the days when the name of drunkard Xiao Rui became louder and louder, autumn quietly began in Luoyang.
An autumn rain suddenly came, and the road in front of the Wangjia Restaurant was covered with wet mud. The drinkers holding oilcloth umbrellas coming and going all stomped their feet at the door. Stomping his feet, a piece of mud fell. It was almost noon, and even in the rain, the wine shop was already full.

Luoyang Old Palace. This once vast and deep palace in the Tang Dynasty has now long since lost all its hustle and bustle, and has become very, very quiet.
Among the palace pavilions with carved beams and painted columns, a man and a woman were walking slowly side by side on the bluestone paved path in the palace. The girl was dressed in a rich dress, with picturesque features, but the man was the young man who had gone to the Wang family wine shop to drink today. However, at this moment, his face no longer pretended to be deep and mature, and his childish face revealed a naughty look without concealment.

The streets and alleys were deserted, except for the refreshing autumn wind that carried one or two yellow leaves that sometimes rolled in the air and sometimes fell on the long path. The woman's expression changed drastically, and she let out a panicked scream while retreating. The sound cut through the sky and echoed in the streets.

It was the cool afternoon of the Mid-Autumn Festival. On an official road extending from the west gate of Luoyang to the countryside, there were cars and horses and pedestrians. The literati walked slowly, and many strangely dressed, dark-skinned barbarians, Persians with curly hair and blue eyes, and Arab merchants leading camels and wearing white headscarves also appeared in the endless flow of people, bundled together. The autumn wind moves towards the Pingquan viewing platform in the west of the city.
The Pingquan Viewing Platform is built against the mountain, with an area of ??hundreds of square meters.
