Seeing Zhao Tai's tone of swearing, as if something was going on, Zhao Ting couldn't help but believe it a little in his heart.

But when he asked Zhao Tai again where he was going to get "Chong Xuan San" in three days, Zhao Tai was silent, only saying that he would see each other in three days.

This also made Zhao Ting confused, but doubts were doubts, he still temporarily agreed to Zhao Tai's request, and made an appointment with him to meet outside the west gate of Linshan City in the afternoon three days later, and the two would go together to pick up the "Chong Xuan San" that Zhao Tai said.

......

......

Two days later.

Evening.

The western suburbs of Linshan County.

Old Temple Mountain.

This old temple mountain is the tallest main peak in the area from Jiangzhou to Qingzhou in the Qilian Mountains, although the most indispensable thing in the Qilian Mountains is the mountains, but in these mountains are undulating, like the waves of the sea, the old temple mountain still stands majestically on the mountains, dazzling and conspicuous.

Its mountain is tall and steep, like a sharp knife soaring into the sky, and several winding solid wood plank roads can be faintly seen on the mountainside, like a ribbon winding around the mountain.

The canyons on both sides of the mountain are deep and quiet, and from time to time clouds of white mist rise. From a distance, the mountains are shrouded in clouds and mist, adding a touch of mystery to this mountain.

Behind the mountain, the color of the sunset on the horizon slowly changed from pale orange to yellow, and the yellow and the blue of the sky were intertwined to create a colorful picture.

With the sunset on the horizon, the two farmers who went into the mountain to cut firewood also slowly paced down the mountain at this time, and both of them carried a bundle of firewood a few points higher than themselves behind their backs, and returned with a full load.

After a long day's work, and now it's time to call it a day and go home, although the two of them look a little tired, but their eyebrows are full of smiles, obviously in a very good mood.

"Wait for another day of chopping firewood tomorrow, and it should be enough to survive this winter. The rest of the money can be exchanged for a bag of rice in the county town. ”

"Brother Huzi, what do you mean, you won't go into the mountain the day after tomorrow?"

The farmer, who was called "Huzi", nodded when he heard this, and said, "Yes, I won't enter, anyway, the firewood and grain at home are enough." When the snow melts in the spring of next year, I want to go to the other side of the river to make a living. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at the young farmer who was asking, and said meaningfully: "Tiewa, brother Yao, don't go into the mountain the day after tomorrow, there are some strange ...... in this old temple mountain now."

The "Iron Baby" sighed and said: "Hey, I also know this, not to mention the "weirdness" in the mountains, just those snakes, insects and beasts that can't find food because of the heavy snow blocking the mountains are enough for us "people who dare to enter the mountains in winter" to drink a pot, but I can't help it." ”

"I'm different from you, not only do I have old ones in my family who want to eat, but also two little ones who are waiting to be fed! I don't go into the mountains to cut firewood, and I can't get enough food, and I'm afraid that the two little ones in my family won't survive the winter." ”

Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read.

Hearing the words of "Tiewa", "Huzi" didn't know what to say to comfort him, so he could only pat his arm gently.

The two lowered their heads, neither of them spoke again, and the atmosphere became silent again.

Just as the two of them were about to walk out of the sheep intestine path at the foot of the mountain, a faint voice sounded behind the two.

"Two brothers, please stay. ”

When the farmer named "Huzi" heard the sound, he turned his head to look, only to see a young man in a white scaly brocade robe suddenly appear next to the big bluestone three feet away from them.

This white-robed boy was extremely handsome, with a pair of sword eyebrows flying obliquely into his temples, starry eyes, long black hair tied behind his head by a purple gold hosta, and a delicate white paper fan carved by mountains and rivers in his hand.

At a glance, it is a rich and noble family.

Although Huzi had some doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to slack off.

He put down the firewood on his back and arched his hand: "This son, why do you want to stop my two brothers?"

The white-robed boy put the white paper fan in his hand into his sleeve, and then Shi Shiran walked over, stood not far in front of the two, and also returned the salute.

"Excuse me! I just heard you say that there is something strange in this mountain, and I dare to ask the word "weird", where to start?"

Listening to the white-robed boy's question, the two farmers glanced at each other.

After a while, the "Huzi" asked with some confusion: "Childe is not from Linshan County, right?"

The white-robed boy nodded and did not make a sound.

"Cough," Huzi coughed lightly and explained, "When the two of us say 'weird', we mean that there are unclean things in this old temple mountain. ”

As he spoke, his voice lowered and became inaudible: "In this mountain...... There are mountain ghosts, and it is said that this mountain ghost can charm the eyes. People who go into the mountains to chop wood or collect medicine, as long as they bump into mountain ghosts, don't think about going out. They will be captivated by the mountain ghosts, and then involuntarily jump off the cliff to kill themselves. ”

"It is said?" the white-robed boy read these two words heavily, and his good-looking brows couldn't help but wrinkle.

Seeing that his expression seemed to be a little suspicious, another farmer "Tiewa" couldn't help but add a few words: "Childe, these things are not empty words. Not to mention anything else, there are only two old hunters in our "Stone Village" who died in the old temple mountain. These two old hunters, they are both first-class good players. Not to mention the wild boars in the mountains, it is the king of the mountains, and the two of them have also hunted a few. ”

"The poisonous insects and beasts in the surrounding mountains, which one of them didn't smell the two of them and hid far away, for fear of being slaughtered. But just a month ago, these two people took fifteen long-beaked hounds that had hunted tigers, chased a black wolf into the back mountain of Laomiao Mountain, and never came out. ”

"Fifteen hounds that have fought with tigers, ordinary beasts, how can they be helped?"

After listening to Tiewa's words, the white-robed boy's expression was slightly restrained, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

"Ahem," Seeing him standing in place and thinking, Tiewa couldn't help coughing twice, and reminded: "This son, it's about to get dark, and the mountains are full of dangers at night, so you have to leave quickly." ”

The white-robed boy was awakened by his words, nodded and said, "Oh, okay, then you can leave quickly." ”

"You...... Not leaving?" Tiewa glanced at the white-robed boy in some surprise.

"Well, I'm going to go into the mountains to have a look, you don't have to worry about me, just leave. ”

After that, the white-robed boy no longer paid attention to the two Tiewa, but turned around and walked towards the old temple mountain.

"This ......"

Looking at his back that was gradually disappearing in the distance, Tiewa shook her head a little speechlessly, and said, "Hey, I didn't expect this young man to look quite smart, but he is actually a fool!"

Huzi also nodded in agreement: "Who said it wasn't?"
