Volume 1 The Rain of Jianyi Chapter 38 The Man Who Sang the Song

The fog is still thick, the strange lyrics and songs are coming more and more clearly, and the tone seems to be more and more sad.

The three of them don't know how long they walked, finally, a huge mansion was faintly revealed in the thick fog, the main entrance of the house was majestic and abnormal, at a glance it was the posture of a large family, the magnificent three gates were made of wood, the plaque hanging on it was still engraved with some unknown words, and the square black tiles on the courtyard wall were more ancient, and there were two stone lions carved by Goryeo stone at the door, and the sound of opera still came from the courtyard.

Dozens of red lanterns hanging at the door of the house shone a rich red glow into the thick fog, making the house more and more conspicuous in the fog.

"This house ......" Ah Xiao looked at the brightly lit house in the distance, rubbed his eyes, and said to himself: "It seems like I've seen it somewhere." ”

The young man looked at it from a distance and said softly: "Siniang, little ghost, there is a mansion in front of you, why have you never seen it on the way?"

Siniang naturally saw this mansion, and she was also very puzzled: "This courtyard really came from nowhere, we didn't see this kind of luxurious mansion all the way over, and ......" Siniang paused, puzzled: "Who would build such a big mansion in this tomb mountain?"

"Since you haven't seen it, is it possible that it is Yamachi?" said the young man.

"I don't know, after all, I haven't seen the mountain city, but I also know that the mountain city should be silent. Siniang shook her head.

"What is that?" asked Xiao in a daze.

The one-eyed young man said calmly: "Mountain City, I really haven't seen it, but the story about it has appeared many times in legends, and it is also recorded in ancient books: Huanshan Mountain City, one of the eight views of Yi, but it has not been seen for several years. Childe and the same people drink upstairs, suddenly see a lonely tower on the top of the hill towering, high insertion of the green dark, look at each other and be suspicious, there is no such Zen temple in the near world. No, see dozens of palaces, Biwa Feiyong, the beginning of the realization of the mountain city. ”

"The Huanshan Mountain here is a county town in the east of Jiangnan Road, I have not been to Jiangnan Road, naturally I don't know the truth of the legend of this Huanshan Mountain City, but the mountain city and this house seem to appear in the same way, all need to have foggy conditions, the houses are extremely luxurious, some people say that this is the reflection of the fairy world, and some people say that this is the appearance of some great monks, but the specific situation is still unknown. ”

The wind at night was unusually cold, and the thick fog was just a few words, and Siniang's hair was already covered with dewdrops.

Siniang wiped her hair with a handkerchief, and just wanted to say something, her eyes flashed, and a black shadow in the mist rushed towards Ah Xiao on the side, the black shadow was about several meters long, and her green eyes revealed the greed for things.

Siniang is quite experienced in the battle, the forging knife in her hand is reversed, the blade is facing outward, a pounce knocks Ah Xiao down, and the forging knife in her right hand swings towards the top of her head, just across the abdomen of the black shadow, and the warm blood is cut out with some hair.

The shadow wailed into the mist.

The one-eyed young man took out another dagger, the iron bone fan had been destroyed in the battle before, he looked around vigilantly, and said: "I heard this opera just now, I was careless, it was the howl of a wild wolf, and I cheered up, the wild wolf does not hunt alone, there may be wolves nearby." ”

Siniang looked back to back with the one-eyed young man very skillfully in front of her, she twisted a strand of hair from the knife in her right hand in her hand, sniffed it, nodded and said: "It's the hair of the wild wolf, there is still some corpse smell on it, it should have been dug not long ago, but the wild wolf pack should not appear at this time, such a big fog is definitely not good for the wolf pack, unless something attracts them." ”

Ah Xiao was protected by the two of them in the middle, and he was not prepared for the attack of the wild wolf just now, he woke up at the right time, completely unaware of the surrounding situation.

The old man in his body teased: "Are you a pig? I don't know if something is coming over, and a monk was almost dragged away by a wolf, it's really ridiculous." ”

Ah Xiao ignored the teasing Sui Han, looked at the mansion, and whispered, "I think, are these wolves attracted by this mansion?"

"How could it be. Siniang still looked ahead vigilantly, and said: "How can a wolf be attracted by a person's house, I have met a wolf many times in Yushan, it is very strange for this wolf to appear here, and the most wrong thing is ...... This place is on the outskirts of Jade Mountain, and it stands to reason that there are no wolves in this kind of place!"

Sui Han was sitting up in Ah Xiao's life, and he no longer looked like he was laughing, but resumed his serious demeanor, and said solemnly: "Ah Xiao, be careful, there was something wrong with this wolf just now, if you can, find a chance to try the temperature under its neck." ”

"Okay, but what's wrong with a wolf? Also, you mean......" Ah Xiao suddenly remembered something, suddenly came to his senses, and said in shock: "You mean this wolf is controlled by the people of the Imperial Beast Sect?"

"But didn't Uncle Jiang already kill that person that day, how could there be a bad guy from the Royal Beast Sect coming over?"

"For the time being, I don't know if it's from the Royal Beast Sect, but I still have to give it a try to find out. Sui Han said.

There was a wolf howl in the mist, and in an instant, ten pairs of eyes lit up in the forest!

"Protect the little ghost! I've got one here!" The one-eyed young man suddenly shouted, and a wild wolf pounced on him, after all, the local land of Yushan is a master of dealing with wild wolves, the dagger in his hand was held tightly by him, and at the moment when the wild wolf pounced, he seized the opportunity to roll to the right, and the dagger in his hand flexibly pierced into the heart of the wild wolf.

"It's dead!" Ah Xiao shouted.

"And!" The one-eyed young man roared again, but at this time it was too late to block the wild wolf that pounced from behind, and in a hurry, the dagger in his hand came out of his hand and stabbed into the body of the wild wolf, the wild wolf howled, this blow did not hit, Siniang reacted, turned around and slashed, the blade of the forging knife slashed, and the front paws of the sneak attack were cut off!

"No matter, I can't stay here, go over and take a look, I don't know how many wild wolves there are around here!" The one-eyed young man was heartbroken, and although he knew that the scene like the mountain market was just an illusion, he still pulled the two of them up and ran towards the gate of this courtyard with all his might.

It didn't take long for the three of them to approach the courtyard gate, and the courtyard gate opened by itself.

The one-eyed young man gritted his teeth, pulled the two of them and ran in.

As soon as you enter, the door naturally closes.

In the thick fog, the wild wolves lost their target, and after a few breaths, they retreated, not far away, dozens of wild wolves surrounded a man sitting on the ground wearing a black robe, and the ferocity of attacking A Xiao and the three of them was different, these wild wolves looked extremely well-behaved in front of the male protagonist.

The black-robed man stroked the forehead of the wild wolf on the side, and said to himself: "This fog is not the right time, but let this little guy run away, senior brother is really useless, he actually dares to enter the city to arrest people." ”

The brightly lit mansion was only a hundred steps away from him, but as if he had not seen it, he closed his eyes and felt it, and finally disappeared into the thick fog.

When the three of them entered the hospital, they saw that the courtyard was full of beautiful trees on both sides, there were countless strange flowers and plants, and a clear and turbulent stream accompanied by flowers and plants.

The entrance is the front yard, the front yard boundary is relatively empty, just look at the front yard and know that this house is really vast, the stage of the front yard is even more luxurious, the base is a whole piece of Korean stone carved dragon and phoenix, the long section has five zhang, the people who sing the song above wear the costumes are all treasures, the turquoise and sapphire on the crown shine in the moonlight, there are some lotus lanterns on the stream, flowing around the stage, like a fairyland.

Not long after the three of them came in, everyone on the stage retreated, leaving only an old man who looked like an old man wearing an ancient armor and holding a silver gun.

"Riding horses and whipping the snow is full of passes, and the snow is full of blood. On July 15, lonely souls and wild ghosts came to meet, and I don't know what year it is! The sword is broken, the chariot is lifted, and all the brothers go home with me, and my parents are not pitiful, and they die for the ......king."

Even the well-informed one-eyed young man was shocked by the grandeur of this mansion at this time, but in the end, he quickly calmed down, and his eyes showed a vigilant color: "Don't look at it anymore, the mountain market is logically impossible to enter, and this place must be a great place." ”

Sui Han in his body was also a little restless, and he said, "Boy, something is very wrong here, it's better to be careful." ”

"Little ghost, do you know what is being sung on this stage?"

Siniang didn't pay attention to the young man, but there was some pity in her eyes, she asked Xiang Axiao, wondering what kind of track this was.

The singing skills of the old man on this stage are all wonderful, Siniang has also been to Yi'an County to listen to the music, but she can't reach such a touching realm, the singers of the county opera troupe are completely different from the old man on this stage.

Ah Xiao shook his head, and before he could speak, a soft voice came:

"The guests who came from afar, at this time, what was singing on the stage was a famous song "Snow Full Pass". ”

A maid-like girl walked out of the main hall behind the stage, carrying a carved wooden lantern in her small and white hand, she walked lightly in front of the three people, made a slight greeting, and said with a smile: "The master sent me to greet the three guests, and the three guests can call me Poria." ”

Siniang was not so vigilant, she was quite interested in this opera, and pulled the maid Poria and asked enthusiastically: "Sister Poria, can you explain this "Snow Manguan" to the three of us? I never knew there was such a beautiful song. ”

"I remember, Mr. Liu once said that Xuemanguan was the place where the Yaori Sword Immortal fought against the Buddha's Son Jingming, and after that time, the Yaori Sword Immortal successfully entered the realm of the Great Sword Immortal. Ah Xiao said.

Poria Qian laughed, even the candle flame in the lantern trembled, she covered her mouth and smiled: "Little brother is really interesting, but it's right, the name of this "Snow Manguan" song is indeed from the first pass in the northwest of Daqin, Xuemanguan. ”

She continued: "The story told by Xuemanguan comes from a warrior five hundred years ago, five hundred years ago, my Great Qin declined, during the waxing moon, the Northwest countries formed a coalition to attack our Northwest Pass Xuemanguan, in a vain attempt to take advantage of the weakness of my Great Qin to destroy our country, so the 400,000 Northwest Coalition Army and the 100,000 garrisons stationed in Xuemanguan at that time started a big war, and the Great Qin Dynasty at that time was in civil strife, and had no time to care about the border passes, after the bloody battle for three months, these 100,000 garrisons were all killed. ”

And the hero of this story is an ordinary warrior who was stationed at Xuemanguan back then. ”

The style of music has changed again, and the love has been rendered to the peak here, and the old man on the stage sang hoarsely:

"Bloody snow pass, all friends are here, help me set up the Qin flag, 100,000 sons are stationed in the pass, kill the tiger and the wolf and be proud, sad and sometimes exhausted. Life is ruined, the sea of air is dry, the winter thunder of heaven and earth is strong, I can't see my wife and children, I hope I don't want to go first!"
