Early the next morning, the heavy rain finally stopped, and the group continued on their way, turning around the mountains and rivers around the woods, and finally arrived at Anxi Mountain at midday on the fifth day.

This mountain is located in the valley. The wind is hard to come out, the water is gurgling, the clouds are hanging down, the vegetation is lush, and even the birds and beasts are rare, let alone the people.

The locals are afraid to avoid this, not only because of the rugged mountain, but also because it is also known as "Dead Man Mountain."

Thirty years ago, this was only an unnamed valley, with lush vegetation, and people often came in to hunt in nearby villages. However, at that time, Bei Xia Qin Hebai was involved in the crime of conspiracy, and the generals and soldiers he had left to guard the border were also urgently called back to the DPRK. There were more than 3,000 people in total. It was late at night when he passed through here, and he caught up with heavy rain. , Then stationed here to rest.

On that night, there was a sudden emergence in the mountain, and the ground shook and the mountain shook, as if a torrent of mud and sand swallowed the place with a powerful force, covering the three thousand soldiers and the surrounding two small villages in mud and water. Under the wood and stone.

After the natural disaster, the government brought people to clean up, but the corpses were buried under the sand. In order to avoid the outbreak of the epidemic, the bones of the dead were piled up in the mountains and burned for three days and nights before they were burned.

Since then, there are no more villages and towns in a radius of 30 miles, only a few households are still living alone in the mountains, guarding the poor mountains and bad waters, and the heroic souls fused with the earth and rock.

It's midday, but because of the rain in the past few days, the sky is still a bit gloomy, and the road on the ground is very muddy, and it will slip if you don't pay attention. Ye Fusheng drove the carriage as far as possible to find a smoother path, but it would not take a day or two to get out of this mountain. He was worried that there would be wind and rain at night, so he watched all the way around, planning to find a place to rest at night. .

Ruan Feiyu closed his eyes in the car, but Lu Mingyuan woke up this morning, but he didn't have much strength all over, so he could only lie in the car and load quail. Qin Lanchang was bored in it for a while, but after all, she couldn't sit still. He opened the door and sat beside Ye Fusheng to help him drive the car. However, the young lady didn't act lightly or severely. She was afraid that she would be able to beat the horse with a whip. Running wildly to the ends of the world, Ye Fusheng didn't intend to compete with the mountain road with the flesh and blood of his few people.

So, facing Qin Lanchang's behavior of grabbing the whip, Ye Fusheng raised his hand to take the whip away, and said sincerely: "Girl, do me a favor."

Qin Lanshang: "What?"

"Come and go cool."

Qin Lanshang heard his unconcealed disgust, and became angry with both hands and arms around him said: "I'm afraid you will take a nap and drive the carriage to the ditch later! You should find a mirror to look at yourself and follow It’s like three hundred rounds of battle in Shanggoulan Courtyard!"

Ye Fusheng: "..."

At this girl's age, she really knows so much, she doesn't look like a girl with a cardamom age at all.

But Ye Fusheng has no way to refute, he really didn't rest well these days.

In fact, since that incident, he has never really slept again. After waking up from nightmares for an unknown number of times, he stopped being blessed by good dreams. Until the night in the broken house, Qin Lanchang was shocked by a word, and somehow leaned against the earth wall to sleep and had a dream.

He dreamed that he had gone back to many years ago, but he was no longer a glimpse leader, just an ordinary ranger. Chu Xiwei became a child again, but he was not a dragon, just An arrogant son of a wealthy family, once he met him, he refused to go home and became a little apprentice who was tired of him all day.

There are not so many intrigues and no irretrievable grudges. He watched Chu Xiwei grow from a child who only knew how to behave like a baby to become a tall adult, but he was completely The young man with a blue silk head gradually stained white with frost on his sideburns.

In their dreams, they lived in a small courtyard in the south of the Yangtze River, with yellow flowers growing in the east fence and green trees on the west wall. Chu Xiwei was dressed in burlap and linen, slowly practicing knives, he picked up a candied lotus seed and threw it over. He lazily said: "How can young people who have only been crowned move as slowly as seven or eighty?"

Chu Xi slightly opened her mouth to pick up the lotus seed, chew it, and said: "How can you compare to Master?"

He laughed angrily: "Yeah, Master is older than you, and entered the coffin earlier than you. Later, when you are beaten and cry on your nose, you will see who will avenge you and hit the ground! Alas, I hope you can practice martial arts The master seems to be incapable of doing it. I'll take advantage of my ability to move and find a powerful apprentice!"

"Don't!" Chu Xiwei leaned against the big tree behind him, "When you die, Master, I will accompany you. What are you afraid of?"

Ye Fusheng smashed a lotus seed on his forehead: "Not promising, nonsense!"

"No nonsense." Chu Xiwei turned her head to look at him, "Master, I'm serious."

Ye Fusheng met the young man's gaze from under the shadow of the tree, as if a tree of green peach blossoms in his eyes, and his eyes were shining in an instant.

The mass of flesh and blood in his chest seemed to be severely grabbed by a hand. Ye Fusheng opened his eyes, and the people around him remained the same, except that there was only ashes left in the fire on the ground.

He froze for a long time and couldn't sleep again.

Hearing this, this headless dream came back in his mind again, his face remained silent, his heart changed rapidly, until two figures appeared in front of him.

There are not many weeds on the road he walked. There are messy footprints on the mud, which shows that there are usually many people walking. At this moment, two figures, one tall and one short, were approaching from far away against the sky. Ye Fusheng looked up and saw an old man riding a donkey and a thin man carrying a rough bow and arrow.

The man carried a hare in his hand, with a smile on his yellow face, and an unknown mountain tune in his mouth. The skinny old man was riding on a skinny donkey, and he was driving the donkey while talking to the man. A patched cloth bag was placed on the back of the donkey, which contained some wild fruits and wild vegetables.

When the two saw the carriage that they usually rarely encounter, they both stunned for a moment. They thought it was a master who passed by here, and didn't dare to startle the nobles, so they moved to the side of the road three feet away. Ye Fusheng's gaze swept over them, and when he was about to wipe his shoulders, he suddenly said: "This brother, that rabbit can't eat it."

The two were taken aback. The old man was on the donkey, and he could look at Ye Fusheng sitting on the carriage at any rate, and he asked in fear, "This official, a good wild rabbit, I can’t eat it. ?"

Ye Fusheng reined his horse, turning his head and said: "Because it is poisonous."

The thin man was taken aback and hurried to look at the rabbit. He saw the gray hare motionless in his hands. There was no trauma on his body, but no vitality.

"The hare is cunning. It is a bit strange to see if it is not injured, but it does not move in your hands." Ye Fusheng raised his chin, "Look carefully at its ears and snout, I'm afraid it was a poisonous weed. ."

The man hugged the hare, only to discover that there was a little black blood spilling from the roots of its ears, snout and nose. Although both eyes were still open, they did not know when the light was gone, and they were so hollow.

He yelled in fright, and quickly threw the hare away. The old man was stunned for a moment, then hit him with a thin bamboo pole, and cursed: "The plague! Just say that there is no such thing as cheap. The rabbit is motionless on the ground. Waiting for you to catch it! Almost poisoned a family!"

The thin bamboo pole hurts people. The man grinned, but didn't dare to hide, so he could only protect his head and face with his hands. Qin Lanshang grinned, and whispered to Ye Fusheng: "How does this old man beat his son like a turtle son?"

Ye Fusheng was silent, but he raised his whip and was ready to continue on his way. Unexpectedly, the old man finished beating his son, and said at the same time: "Dare to ask, where are the officials going?"

Ye Fusheng said: "Naturally, I want to go out of the mountain."

The old man looked in the direction of his whip, his face changed, and said: "Official man, you can make a detour! You can't go over there!"

Qin Lan Chang said strangely: "Why can't you go?"

"There are mountain bandits!" the thin man answered, "We are not a good place here, but no matter whether we go north or east, we have to cross here. Although there are only a few households in the mountains with nowhere to go. Poor people, but a group of gangsters came a few days ago. They took the mountain as the king and extorted the property from passers-by. If they didn’t do well, they would kill, but it’s fierce!"

Qin Lanshang is a violent and straightforward temper, and immediately asked: "How many are there in that gang of gangsters?"

"I'm afraid there will be a hundred or so, it's not easy to provoke!" The old man's eyes showed a trace of fear, "They look down on us poor people, and they are still fine on weekdays, but if you pass by, officials are afraid... …It’s hard to go, the officials should go around!"

Ye Fusheng narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Why don't it matter, thank you, Lao Zhang for reminding."

After he said that, he had to use his whip to drive his horse. The old man saw that he knew that there were tigers in the mountains and went to Hushan. For a moment he didn’t know what to do. Ruan Feiyu’s voice came from the car: “Master Ye, more is worse than less. One thing, listen to this old man."

Qin Lanshang was so angry that this "gentle" Nanru was so angry that he didn't know how dare such a soft-shelled turtle, who is accustomed to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, dared to push the new law to abolish the old party. Hearing that, she couldn't help but mocked: "Master, if you are afraid, stay in the car and don't come out. You don't have to use your knife to chop people, what are you afraid of?"

Ye Fusheng patted her shoulder, feeling that with this girl in the lead, the world's fierce women can be called Xiaojiabiyu. He pondered for a moment, and then said to the old man: "If this is the case, then does the old man know what way to get out of the mountain?"

When the old man heard that the savior was not going to die, he sighed in relief and said hurriedly: "Yes. There is a small road behind my house. Although it is a bit steeper, it is hidden. Those new mountain bandits don't know it. "

Ye Fusheng said: "Could you please lead a way?"

"It's okay to lead the way, and I also walk home from left to right, but..." the thin man interjected, "That road follows the cliff, and it is impossible to walk after night. Officials may wish to rest at my house, or repay The kindness just now."

"A word of things, what kind of grace?" Ye Fusheng shook his head, resisting a dime of silver ingot, "Then it will be troublesome."

The old man refused repeatedly, but the thin man hurriedly took the money, he sighed, and smiled sincerely: "Why don't you do it! Why don't you do it! Officials come with us!"

They turned to another trail and gradually moved away, until after the figure disappeared, one hand picked up the abandoned hare.

The handsome man looked at the direction in which Ye Fusheng and others disappeared, and he was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled, as if he was saying to himself: "It's kind of kind, nothing more..."
