Chapter 118: Three Giant Cauldrons

Yuhua Mountain in the northern suburbs of Yanzhou.

This mountain is very majestic, and the north of this mountain is the Beiguan of the Yanzhou section of the Great Wall, and it is also an important field. Since ancient times, if it weren't for the war factor, it would have been quite lively here. It also does not distinguish between the Han and the Hu, who exchange grain, cloth, tea, salt and iron and various daily necessities from the Han people. The Han people exchanged cattle, sheep, leather and other materials from the Hu people. Beyond Beiguan is the vast desert. Once the climate is abnormal, the weather is extreme, and the horses have no forage, the Hu people will invade the south in a big way.

This Yuhua Mountain is majestic, the north of the mountain is woodland, and there is a waterfall in the south of the mountain. The waterfall is also very peculiar. The waterfall is about 100 meters high. In winter, the water falls from the cliff and gradually forms a hollow icicle, the water inside the icicle is roaring, and the outside is crystal clear, which is very beautiful.

At this time, it is rainy in the north, and the waterfall is even wider and magnificent.

Today, two people came from under the waterfall, one with a left eye patch and a plaster on the right cheekbone. A long pig's waist face, a pair of thief eyes to look around.

When the two men came to the bottom of the waterfall, they were immediately impressed by the momentum of the waterfall, and after watching it, they looked for the path up the mountain from different angles.

Finally, from the west side of the waterfall, there was a rare path from the wild grass, and in addition, there were people tied with strips of red cloth on the branches. With this strip of cloth, the pig's kidney's face jumped up and down like an ape, and in an instant he climbed to the top of the waterfall. The blindfold in the back did not show weakness, and also walked step by step, and in a moment, both of them were already at the top of the waterfall. Looking at the waterfall again, it is strange and strange. It turned out that there was a huge ravine above the waterfall, and there were three huge pots in the ravine. It turns out that the Yuhua Mountain is a stone mountain as a whole, and the top of the mountain is slightly flat, and because of the flowing water, it causes three huge puddles. Each pit has a diameter of several zhang. Water spills out of the cauldron above and flows into the next pot, each relatively low. The water overflows from the mouth of the third pot, creating a huge waterfall.

Of course, there are many other large and small puddles, but the three pots are the largest and the most spectacular.

The pig's kidney, with his face on the soft moss, dragged the bamboo branches on both sides and walked downward, and the blindfold also went down the other side.

Finally, the two gathered to the left of the three pots and told each other what they had seen. The pig's kidney, on the left, next to the third pot, there is indeed a water eye, as long as you gently pry it open, the water in the pot can all flow away from the side. The blindfold said: The second pot on the right also has a water eye, pry open the stone next to it, and the water can flow away from the side.

The pig's waist face said: "So, as long as the water is diverted from the second pot, and then the water in the third pot is put away, the third pot will be completely empty?"

The blindfold nodded and said, "The last time the old Taoist and the hall master brought people here, they put things here." ”

The pig's kidney's face was immediately sunny, and he said eagerly: "Why don't we release the water now and see if the things are still there?"

The blindfold waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, when tonight's work is done, it's not too late for us to see it again." Besides, there are a lot of tourists below, and if others see the clues, it will not be easy to do. ”

Hearing the blindfold say this, the pig's waist face forcibly suppressed his curiosity.

When they saw that it was getting late, they returned the way they came, but did not go down the mountain, and when they were still a few feet from the bottom of the mountain, they left the path again, and walked up dozens of paces, and found a tree to get into. The location is perfect to see the activities of the people on the platform below, but also to hide it.

At this moment, there are a lot of tourists under the waterfall, there are dozens of people, there are young students, while drinking and writing poems, while tracing and painting. There are also ordinary civilians. Of course, there are also many people who climb up the road just now. But they could not find them.

The blindfold looked down for a while, and then pointed to two people on a protruding stone on the east side of the waterfall: "Those are the two people." ”

The pig's kidney's face looked fixedly there, and sure enough, he saw two very suspicious people on the stone, drinking and eating meat, and talking about something, as if the magnificent waterfall did not attract their attention.

The pig's waist looked at it for a long time, then turned back to the blindfold and said: "The one in the east is Qian Yi's housekeeper, and the one in the west looks familiar, too far away, can't see clearly, and always feels as if I've seen it somewhere." ”

The blindfold smiled when he heard it: "It must be an acquaintance, not an ordinary acquaintance, no wonder the old Tao asked me to take off my disguise at the time, face the Hu people, and adapt to the situation." ”

The two of them waited patiently, and the tourists had been coming and going for several waves, but the two of them were still talking about something.

When he saw that the man from the west looked very angry, and turned to leave, the butler hurriedly dragged him back and persuaded him with kind words. After a few rounds of this, the one finally stopped pestering him, and was there thinking about things alone. The housekeeper still stopped persuading.

The sun went down, and at last the butler took something out of his bosom, and the man on the west side untied the cloth bag he had brought with him and put it in. ”

Then the butler stepped on the twilight and left, while the other sat on the stone, as if meditating on something.
