Originally, Songtao Ridge was inhabited by a few dozen families, although because of the scourge of banditry, each of them almost did not move around much for the reason of avoiding being involved in right and wrong, but most of them knew the names of their neighbors.

One of them is a scholar on the Songtao Ridge, wise and wise, with a belly of economy, but there is a birth of a child's name, the death of the inscription of the inscription, it is always good to ask this scholar first, if there is a letter to pass on the book, life doubts, find him can be solved by most of them, his name is Mu Ya, is the gentleman in the mouth of the people on the ridge, but he is only the blind wife of the heart of Langjun.

This morning, Mu Ya had just processed the toons picked from the mountains in the early morning, and planned to blanch them in boiling water to taste them, and his wife Yin Wan was sitting next to her, although she couldn't see things, she could hear Mu Ya's low humming voice, and she asked, "Brother Mu, I don't seem to have heard this song I hummed today, is it a new one made up by you?"

Mu Ya said with a smile, "I went to pick wild vegetables in the early morning, and saw Erniu collecting firewood, who didn't know half of the big characters, but he was quite alert to the rhythm, and he hummed this tune in his mouth." I asked him where he learned it, and the fool smirked and said that he dreamed last night that he had learned from the white-bearded immortals, and he didn't learn half a point in the thirty-six changes, but he learned this tune. I listened to this tune quite peculiarly, and when I came back, I made up the whole score according to the prototype, and I gave it a name, the Mountain Curtain Score. ”

Yin Wan smiled, shook her head as if looking, and said, "Brother Mu, at this time, Xiaoxue and Xiaoyi will go over there to pick up firewood, I want to hear this complete mountain curtain score." ”

Mu Ya was slightly surprised, then smiled, reached out and gently held Yin Wan's hands, squatted in front of Yin Wan's feet at will, and said, "Since you lost your sight, you haven't listened to my singing well, and now you are rarely interested, how could I not?"

The low humming sound gradually became clear, from slow to fast, from shallow to deep, the tone is light and clear, but it is not the popular tune of elegance and vulgarity, it may not be refined, but the corner of the palace merchant at the junction is quite ingenious, if there are people who understand the rhythm here, it will definitely be enjoyable.

There was no bamboo, only the blind woman was listening, but Mu Ya was extremely serious, humming to the point of movement, he couldn't help but touch his forehead and hide his tears, what he was sad about was not the song, but this poor person.

The singing stopped abruptly, and Yin Wan seemed to have heard something unusual, and she said, "Brother Mu, what's wrong?

"It's okay, it's okay. Mu Ya showed a smile on his face, even if his wife couldn't see it, but he was willing to face her with joy, he said, "I have suffered with you all these years, and I even eat."

has never been exquisite, wild vegetable porridge, sometimes there is only a hard steamed bun with a bite of pickles, and you don't dislike it. Wait until this year's Chinese New Year, I will go outside to sell the calligraphy, and when I come back, I will hold a marriage for you, and let you marry me generously, otherwise I will be too wronged by you. ”

Yin Wan's cheeks were slightly red, and she said, "Just save money, don't use these external things, Brother Mu, with you by my side all these years, I am already very content, if it weren't for you, I am afraid that I would have died a long time ago." It's nothing to be bitter now, you're going to be too busy compared to me not being able to do anything. ”

She knew that he was a real immortal talent, and it was only because of his own burden that he was willing to live in the mountains for a long time. He gave her a lot, but she couldn't give him much, which made her always regret that she couldn't share his worries and give him the support he deserved.

She plucked up her courage and said, "Brother Mu, in a few days, you and Xiaoyi will join the army together, with your talents, you will definitely achieve something." ”

Mu Ya's face changed suddenly, how could he not know what she meant, but he couldn't leave his wife, fame and family, he chose the latter. His voice suddenly deepened, "If you think this mountain curtain score is good, I can sing it to you every day, and if you want to learn, I will teach you." ”

Just as the two were talking, a panicked shadow ran from a distance, it was Chen Xinxue, who was temporarily living here, she was panting and rushing, Mu Ya suddenly felt that something was ominous, and hurriedly asked, Chen Xinxue didn't get closer, so he shouted, "Brother is surrounded by a large group of Qin soldiers, they are all cavalry, I saw them cut down a few people who were farming, I am afraid that they will come over soon." ”

Mu Ya suddenly became a spirit, he suddenly realized, and said to himself, "Why didn't I think that Songtao Ridge is located between Jinhui City and Wohua Mountain, and it is a village abandoned by both sides, and the current war will naturally start here." The Qin people slaughtered Songtaoling, there is enough reason to raise troops to Wohua Mountain, and they can also blame the mistake of killing people and slaughtering lives to the mountain bandits, why didn't I think of it, why didn't I think of it!"

Chen Xinxue's face turned pale, and she said, "Brother Mu, are you saying that those Qin troops are going to slaughter our entire village?

Mu Ya said, "Xiaoxue, don't worry, Xiao Yi's practice is profound, although the martial arts realm is not high, but the mysterious method is difficult, even if he is caught by Qin Jun, he will be spared his life for this reason." Now listen to me, and set out to inform all the inhabitants of the eastern slope, that it is in my name, and let them come to my hut quickly, and those who have swords will bring swords, and those who do not have swords will take their farm tools, and if they are delayed, the whole village will be gone. ”

Chen Xinxue paused slightly, tears couldn't help falling, she bowed and bowed, "I know, then my brother will ask Brother Mu, he can't die." Then he rushed out with tears in his eyes and went to each household to inform him according to Mu Ya's instructions.

Mu Ya picked up Yin Wan, hurriedly walked into the house, put it on the edge of the couch, and said, "Wan'er, wait for me to come back, no matter what movement you hear outside, don't make a sound, wait for me to come back." ”

Yin Wan grabbed the corner of his clothes indiscriminately, and said worriedly, "Brother Mu, is it true that the Qin army is really going to slaughter the village? How can they do this? We are also Qin people and their people, how can they bear to ......?"

Mu Ya gently pressed her hand and said, "The Qin Dynasty is restless now, there are not many unscrupulous rulers, killing one person is killing, in order to provoke a reason for war but not revealing the real reason, killing our village is the most effective way." The government is like a tiger, and the people are like ants, but I haven't thought about it these days, and I have reached this point so quickly. ”

Yin Wan said, "Then do you have to go out?" Xiaoxue said that there are not many Qin troops here, how can you deal with it alone?"

Mu Ya exhaled lightly and said, "If I don't go, Xiaoyi Xiaoxue and they will all have to die, and the residents here will all die." Even if it's just to keep you alive, I've got to go this time. ”

"Mu ...... Brother Mu ...... "Yin Wan still wanted to say something, but Mu Ya had already let go of her hand, took the long sword that had not been unsheathed for a long time, and hurriedly walked out of the door.

So there was this scene, about a hundred cavalrymen armed with scimitars rode on the ridge, facing a few simple huts and a group of peasants with hoes and sticks, the cavalry did not rush to kill, they looked fiercely at the leader in front of the hut, the man held a bronze sword, his face was dark yellow, and he was like an elegant teacher, and he was protecting a hundred farmers in front of him, like an iron wall.

The captain of this cavalry swallowed a mouthful of saliva and hoarsely shouted, "Brothers, kill!"

Only five horsemen rushed out, and they did not seem to notice that their comrades were not following, but only let the horses run forward, and the peasants were like lambs to the slaughter in their eyes, and when their scimitars were raised, they were about to cut off the head of the former, and suddenly the cold light flickered, and a blade of the sword seemed to cut through the most important part of the body.

At this moment, the eyes of the five people turned black, and they all fell off their horses. There was a deep gash in their throats, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

The horse was startled and neighed, and the blood raged on the Songtao Ridge, which was cold and glamorous.
