Chapter 5 Collecting Medicine in the Back Mountain
The long street of the ancient city is full of people coming and going.
A boy who exuded a faint aura of indifference stood in the backlight, a lilac soft satin coat, reflecting a faint brilliance in the sun, reflecting a handsome face with clear water chestnuts.
"Jiuli, I can be regarded as finding you. An older boy appeared behind him and knocked a purple-clothed boy on the shoulder with a fan.
"Second brother, it was you, it scared me. Jiuli turned around.
"Isn't it you recruiting relatives today?" the young man in purple teased happily, "I don't know which eldest lady is favored by the second brother?"
"Stinky boy, you can be skinny" The second brother said and wanted to hit his head with a fan again, but the young man in purple dodged sideways, "Don't hit your head, you will be stupid!"
"Who are you waiting for on the street corner?"
"Shh......hh......hh
“...... Oh......" The second brother shook his head and smiled, "However, don't forget, the marriage of children is the order of the parents, and you and I are not in charge." ”
"Then I don't care, it's too early to tell. Brother, let me tell you, there is really one look at the city and the beauty of the country. ”
"What kind of meat words did the kid say" The second brother just thought it was a rumor he heard on the street.
"The face of the people and the country...... Hmm......" Jiuli remembered the shocking glimpse yesterday, and couldn't extricate himself.
"Let's go, go back with me" The second brother interrupted his fantasy and pulled him away.
"You're here to take me home?" Jiuli reacted.
"Father has something to do with you, let me take you back. ”
"What's the big deal, you still want to find me back?" Jiu Li said, he hadn't waited for the person he wanted to meet.
"Go back first, brother, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I will allow you to come out to find her, okay?"
Jiu Li thought about it in his heart, and reluctantly, followed the second brother to the depths of the long street.
When they walked away, a beautiful shadow turned out in the corner of the wall, bright and gorgeous Xuanyao embroidered soft satin, and flowing hair obediently ran down the back.
She looked at the young man's distant figure and smiled slightly, so thrilling. Then it turned into a starlight in the sky.
The boy seemed to have a feeling, and when he looked back, it was the place where the girl had disappeared, and there was nothing.
The Li tribe is self-sufficient, cultivating agriculture, smelting copper and iron, making soldiers, making arts, and teaching. The Lieshan tribe is good at fishing and hunting by relying on rivers, making plows, and planting grains.
The Li clan and the Lieshan clan formed an alliance, and the two clans just learned from each other's strengths. A prosperous scene, one after another, many small tribes have taken refuge in it, integrated into the Li and Lieshan clans, and the clan is growing stronger and stronger.
However, everyone in the Yellow Emperor tribe is brave and good at fighting, conquering all the way, winning many battles and accumulating a lot of combat experience.
Although the Lieshan clan is allied with the Li clan, it is very powerful, and he doesn't care about it at all. Raise troops to drive the Lieshan tribe directly, the Lieshan clan and the Li tribe resisted together, the battle lasted for three days and three nights, the Yellow Emperor was tired of a long war due to the lack of logistics and food supply, and withdrew his troops.
After the First World War, the Li tribe and the Lieshan clan suffered heavy losses and complained that the tribes that were not good at fighting deeply felt the fear and sadness of defeat;
At the same time, they are deeply aware that it is far from enough to smelt copper and iron, make five soldiers, and create a hundred arts, and that war pays attention to the art of war, military training, good warfare, and strategy. They have no experience in a hundred battles, nor do they know the art of war.
One of the elders of the Li clan spoke: "The Yellow Emperor fought for a long time, the food reserves were insufficient, and the soldiers fought for a long time. The Yellow Emperor should not start a war of invasion in the short term. ”
Everyone nodded, and Li Huo asked, "I don't know what the elder thinks, you might as well say it and discuss it together." ”
"When I heard that there is a god of war in the land of cloud dreams, he is transformed by ten thousand ways, from the Nine Heavens, born to be good at fighting, God teaches the art of war, the gods are omniscient, and the form is all-encompassing. Know the feelings of all things, and know the changing state of the people. ”
"The Great Elder wants to send someone to ask for help from the Heavenly God of War?" Li Huo said in surprise.
The Great Elder waved his hand, coughed, and said, "No, the God of War in the sky doesn't care about civil struggles. ”
Everyone cast puzzled glances, and the Lieshan clan asked, "What does the Great Elder mean?"
"We can send people to study and learn the art of war. The Great Elder stroked his little white goatee
"But where is the Land of Cloud Dreams?" the Lieshan Clan asked, "It is rumored that the Land of Cloud Dreams is guarded by White Ape Divine Beasts. ”
"It is rumored that the land of Yunmeng is on the top of Nanshan, starting from the north city of Zhulu County, first across the ancient desert city, through the ancient jungle, through a hundred miles of clouds, you can climb the South Mountain. An old man in a brown robe stood up.
"That's right, there is a ladder on the top of Nanshan, you can climb to the sky and see the gods. I heard that the god of war often followed the ladder down to the top of Nanshan Mountain to see the world. The Great Elder said.
"Father, the ninth brother is here. There was a voice outside the door.
"Come in......" Li Huo said.
Jiuli followed his second brother to open the curtain and walked in.
Suddenly, there was a bang, and a hole collapsed in the roof of their house......
Two people fell from above, dressed strangely and unkempt, and appeared in front of everyone......
"Ouch! What the hell is it again!" Xu Hao picked up Xiao Yu and patted the dust on his T-shirt.
Xiao Yu overcast the spell and was very weak, but she also noticed that it was strange, and she touched Xu Hao with her elbow.
Xu Hao noticed that everyone looked at the two of them in amazement, with very strange expressions......
Where is this place?!
At this time, Xu Hao completely collapsed, he glanced at Xiao Yu, and motioned for her to cast a spell and escape.
Xiao Yu's face was full of ashes, and escaping from under the eyes of the Heavenly Emperor had exhausted her, and she shook her head helplessly.
The crowd slowly and cautiously gathered around them.
Xu Hao and Xiao Yu were forced to support each other and take two steps back in a panic, but there was no way to retreat, and someone on the back stepped forward.
"Where did the barbarians come from!" roared Li Huo.
Everyone took a step forward and did not dare to act rashly.
"Everyone, calm down!" Xu Hao raised his hand, "Calm down! We have no malicious intentions, it's just a coincidence...... Xiao Yu, you say a few words, you brought me here......" Xu Hao glanced at Xiao Yu, anxious, why did Xiao Yu drop the chain at this time, not as if he had fallen off the desert! God knows what was going to happen!
"Catch it first!" The patriarch of the Lieshan clan spoke, "I don't know if it's an undercover agent sent by the Yellow Emperor, it's so amazing that he can fly two people into our city!"
Xun Sheng looked up, Xiao Yu knew in his heart that he was the opponent of the Yellow Emperor, Emperor Yan!
Could it be that this is Emperor Yan's city pavilion? Emperor Yan hasn't joined forces with the Yellow Emperor yet? Xiao Yu wondered in his heart, if he told her identity, would he not be arrested?
"Wait!" Xiao Yu's weak voice sounded, glanced at everyone, and suddenly saw a coarse cloth hanging on the wall, drawing a map of the battle terrain.
Are you already fighting? Is this a dream? Or is it really going back in time? If I intervene, will it change history?
Xu Hao's eyes flashed, and he felt that hope was coming, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't see Xiao Yu have a follow-up.
Everyone was about to move, and Xu Hao hurriedly said, "Wait...... You deceive more than you do...... Don't you feel ashamed?!"
When everyone hesitates, you look at me, I look at you, I don't understand why we should be ashamed of bullying more and less? Victory is king.
"Father, they don't look like bad people, so let me ask them first. ”
Li Huo bowed his head in agreement.
A young man walked out from behind Xiao Yu and walked in front of them.
Xu Hao was shocked when he saw the crown-haired young man in front of him, isn't this him when he was a child, how can he look so similar to himself when he was a child!
Jiu Li glanced at Xu Hao, turned to look at Xiao Yu, and the moment he looked at Xiao Yu, his heart was shocked, and it was exactly the same as his glimpse yesterday.
He was surprised and happy in his heart, and stepped forward, wanting to wipe the black ash on Xiao Yu's face and take a clear look.
Xu Hao stepped forward and blocked Xiao Yu behind him, "Hey, hey...... A gentleman doesn't use his words, what kind of hero is bullying a weak woman!
Jiuli withdrew his hand awkwardly, and everyone listened to the young man's speech style very novel, both a gentleman and a hero, and they felt even more puzzled.
"If you want to cut and kill, listen to you!" Xu Hao didn't know where the courage suddenly came from.
"We're not trying to kill you, we just want to get to ...... clear"
"That ...... But what you said! A gentleman is hard to chase after a horse!" Xu Hao hurriedly said: "If you have anything to ask, just ask, as long as you promise not to kill!"
"Patriarch, this person is very cunning, can't ......," the Great Elder stepped forward.
Li Huo raised his hand to stop him, "Okay! I promise you!"
With his father's permission, Jiuli asked, "What is your name, where do you come from, and what do you come from?"
Xu Hao didn't know that he had traveled through time and space, but he thought that he had simply teleported to an unknown ancient city, and in the face of this soul torture, he answered like a stream. "We came from Wansong Town, Suzhou City, and we didn't intend to pass by here, my name is Xu Hao, and she is my wife. ”
"Ah......" Jiuli was shocked when he heard the word wife.
"What's the problem?"
"No, you said you had no intention of passing by here?" Jiu Li looked at Xu Hao, then at the roof, and then at the pile of ash and broken wood on the ground.
Xu Hao looked up at the sky and looked down at the ground without words, which made him explain falling from the sky, and he was in a hurry, "We were originally walking in the desert, but suddenly encountered sandstorms and tornadoes, and were swept by the wind......"
"You say desert?!" the Great Elder's vigorous and powerful voice sounded, with a hint of incredulity!
"The desert you are talking about, but the desert ancient city?!" the Lieshan clan took a step forward excitedly.
Xu Hao took two steps back, surprised by their surprise, "That's right, it's been a day and a night of hiking in the desert......"
Jiu Li didn't know what they were talking about, so he turned his head to ask his father, and Li Huo whispered to him that the ancient desert city was thousands of miles north of their city.
Xiao Yu was taking advantage of this gap to slowly recover her physical strength, but when she wanted to cast a spell and leave, she encountered difficulties, her divine power was consumed too much, and there was not much divine power left, which was not enough to support them to leave!
The Great Elder walked up to Li Huo and whispered in his ear, not knowing what he said.
After a while, Li Huo said tentatively: "Since it is unintentionally passing by, it is the will of heaven, why not stay here for a few days? ”
Xu Hao couldn't be the master, so he turned his head and asked Xiao Yu, who nodded.
"Thank you very much, can you arrange a resting place for my wife, who is weak and needs to rest. ”
"......" Xiao Yu, who had recovered his strength, had to pretend to be tired and close his eyes.
"......" Xu Hao looked at Xiao Yu with a look of resentment: Did I say it wrong?
"But!" Li Huo turned to Jiu Li, "Jiu Li, you take them to a guest room to rest." ”
"Yes! Jiuli led them to the inner room.
The corridor-style courtyard is a bit similar to the courtyard courtyard in Beijing at that time, passing through the courtyard, there are houses on the left and right, all of which are single-storey, and the whole house structure is wood. After entering the courtyard of the five, Jiuli opened a west.
He told the maid to bring them two basins of water, and then asked if they needed new clothes.
"If you want to ......" Xu Hao nodded violently, "If you want to be good, you must be good!"
He went to the side of the bed and told her to lie down.
"You...... Forehead...... I don't know what to call you?" Xu Hao asked Jiu Li, smiling awkwardly, he really didn't know how to call a person who looked so similar to him a few years ago.
"Jiuli. Jiuli arched his hand, concise and to the point.
"Jiuli ......" Xu Hao glanced at his dress, which city is this? Thinking about the words: "Jiuli...... Son...... We're going to rest, you...... Why don't you go?"
As he spoke, he touched the carved wood at the door, in fact, he wanted to eagerly ask Xiao Yu what was going on, where was this, how did they go back?
Jiuli wanted to see the girl's appearance clearly, but she was already **, so she had to quit.
"I'll go, it's really an all-wood structure, there is not a single nail, how can I do it!" After Jiuli went out, Xu Hao patted the door and sighed. "Where the hell is this? No matter how you look at it, it looks like an intangible cultural heritage ......."
Listening to Jiu Li's footsteps gradually disappearing, Xiao Yu slowly turned over and sat up, glancing at Xu Hao, "It's probably more troublesome to go back......
“?” Xu Hao looked at her, "Why?"
"Because I don't have much divine power left," Xiao Yu said helplessly...... "Also, there is a very important thing to tell you." ”
"......," Xu Hao's sixth sense told him that nothing good was good.
"We are now ......in the era of the Yellow Emperor," Xiao Yu said word by word.
"Oh. So what. After a while, Xu Hao reacted, "What! You mean the Yellow Emperor in history!!"
Xiao Yu cast a puzzled look, "Xuanyuan Clan?"
"Is that the Yellow Emperor who was "born a god, weak and able to speak, young and neat, long and sensitive, and mature and smart"?"
"It's very smart, he is the son of Shaodian and Fubao, with Ji as his surname" Xiao Yu nodded, "But Xuanyuan, I don't know." ”
Another name for later generations, the honorific title of Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, also known as "Emperor Hongshi" and "Xu Hao hung his head.
"You said you don't have much divine power left, so you can't go back?" Xu Hao worried.
"Do you think it's easy to escape from under the eyes of the Heavenly Emperor?" Xiao Yu remembered that his heart was still in the desert ancient city, and his eyes became dark.
"I heard, I just heard," Xu Hao said cautiously, "Traveling through time and space is irreversible, can we really go back?"
"Who did you listen to?" Xiao Yu asked, she was also inexperienced, and initially suspected that it was the power of the Dragon Ring.
"It's said on the Internet!" Xu Hao blurted out, "Although there is no basis, I am still very worried!"
"What are you worried about?"
"I'm worried that I won't be able to go back!"
"Why do you have to go back?"
"I'm not from this era, this place where birds don't, I want to go back to my civilized society!"
"What's wrong here?"
"It's very backward here......"
"What else?"
"My friends and my family are waiting for me in the future, I am going to live here, I will marry and have children, then my children and grandchildren and my friends, this ...... It's too messy......"
It's all gibberish, purely to express that he doesn't belong to this era.
Seeing that Xiao was silent, Xu Hao spoke, "You don't want to go back to the past and change history, right? That's why we appeared here......
“...... No, we can't go back, is it because you don't want to go back at all, you want to stay here!" Xu Hao suddenly opened his mouth, and pointed at Xiao Yu incredulously.
Xiao Yu ignored it, lay down again, closed his eyes and recuperated.
She just traveled from the future, she should still be in the land of Yunmeng at this time, should she go to the land of Yunmeng to find herself, and tell her the truth at this time?
If history is rewritten, will Xu Hao, as a person in the future, disappear?
Thinking of this, his eyes opened a slit and glanced at Xu Hao, what should I do with him?
Xu Hao was still chattering, "The deceased is like this, we have to look forward, let the past pass......"
Xiao Yu closed his eyes again and said to Xu Hao.
"If you have time to read more thoughts, you have a good understanding, maybe you will have a great success, and you may be able to return to the future by yourself. ”
"......" Xu Hao quieted down and said in his heart: It's really a hibiscus face, a diamond heart.
What to do, there is no life to win by lying down, you can only stand up and run and struggle.
He pushed Xiao Yu, "Can you sleep in and ......?"
"What are you going to do?" Xiao Yu's eyes widened in surprise.
"We are nominally husband and wife, of course we sleep together, you sleep inside and I sleep outside. Xu Hao looked natural and natural, and met her gaze.
Since he knew that she was not a fox girl, he completely let go and was not afraid.
Xiao Yu sneered, and put his hands on the back of his head: "Xu Hao, who gave you courage?"
"Liang Jingru!"
"The fairy?"
"......" is really unable to communicate, Xu Hao took a deep breath, opened his mouth, and finally didn't say anything more, walked to the round table by himself, put the two benches together, and lay on his back on the stool.
Xiao Yu smiled and closed his eyes in meditation.
Each has its own thoughts, what should they do?
