Chapter Eighty-Six: The Secret Camp
Walking in front of Tan Sitong was Zhu Huanyu, she saw Tan Sitong and Lin Hei'er ambiguous expressions, her heart was unhappy for no reason, she was distracted for a while, and her footsteps suddenly stepped into the air, only to see her body crooked and lose her balance.

Seeing her body topple, she was about to fall off the cliff. Tan Sitong was quick with his eyes, grabbed her sleeve, pulled her back, and hugged her in his arms. In the blink of an eye, everyone was scared half to death.
Only Zhu Huanyu was secretly proud. With her martial arts, she turned over and fell off the cliff, and at that moment she could still save herself, what she wanted was Tan Sitong's shot.
was hugged by Tan Sitong again, on the cliff, Tan Sitong didn't dare to let go. The two were close to each other, smelling each other's breath and intersecting skins, and Tan Si was holding a ball of warm fragrant nephrite, which was like sitting on pins and needles. Zhu Huanyu seemed to be afraid of falling again, so she simply reached out and hugged Tan Sitong's waist. But she was proud in her heart, like drinking sweet food.
Tan Sitong's palm hurt, it turned out that the hand that was holding Lin Hei'er was pinched by her.
On top of this cliff, Tan Sitong hugged one and pulled the other, and was in a dilemma. After waiting for a while, it was estimated that Zhu Huanyu had come to his senses, and he hurriedly said: "Miss Zhu, this mountain road is too narrow, I can't walk with you, you have to move forward slowly by yourself, if you are afraid, I will hold you, okay?" ā
Zhu Huanyu has been sticking to her chest, the wind blows her hair and brushes her face from time to time, and the fragrance of her daughter has been drilling into her nostrils, which is really uncomfortable.
Zhu Huanyu had no choice but to reluctantly let go of Tan Sitong, still walking in front, but her left hand was no longer stretched out, and she kept grabbing Tan Sitong and not letting go.
Tan Sitong thought she was scared, so he had to hold on tightly. He grabbed Lin Hei'er with one hand and Zhu Huanyu with the other, and slowly moved, which became a marionette between these two women.
I finally climbed to the far pass, and there was a long cave in front of me. It was pitch black inside. But there was no longer any need to walk on the cliff, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Zhu Huanyu let go of the hand holding Tan Sitong. Lin Hei'er couldn't pull it anymore, and Tan Sitong's tense heart fell at this time. Women are more difficult than enemies, and it seems that it is better to provoke less.
Tan Sitong has just married Yan'er with Li Yan, and the relationship between men and women naturally understands a lot. He and Lin Heier were originally entangled in wanting to talk about it, how could he not feel Zhu Huanyu's actions. But a Lin Heier has already made herself feel guilty, and this Zhu Huanyu must not be provoked. It seems that it will be avoided in the future.
There were people defending in the cave, but Long Er was an old man, and the guards recognized him. Unexpectedly, when the guards saw that he was coming, they all wept bitterly. It turned out that Zhang Zongyu went down the mountain two years ago and never came back, and the mountain was cut off from the outside.
After the Twist Army was defeated by the imperial court, he only dared to act cautiously, and this secret camp was Zhang Zongyu's most secret base.
The veterans on the mountain were loyal to Zhang Zongyu, and they were afraid that he would have an accident if they saw their master for a long time and did not come back. But he didn't dare to leave his post without permission, thinking that if he returned to Shanxi one day, he would still have a stronghold. There is only death to guard this retreat for him, and stick to this isolated lonely camp.
Day after day, these soldiers will be accompanied by the lonely mountain and grow old with the idle clouds. I was just waiting for Zhang Zongyu to return.
Such a loyal veteran, Tan Si couldn't help but cry when he saw it. But he couldn't help but tell them the bad news, Zhang Zongyu couldn't come back, and he would always accompany his brothers who were dead or alive in the Yellow River under the mountain.
Although sad, life has to go on. The guards led everyone up the mountain to the secret camp to rest. When you come out of the cave, there is already a cave.
Originally, the top of the mountain is very open, the terrain here has been gentle, there is a pond and waterfall in the distance, although there is some depression in winter, but the water is thin and the trees are green, and there is a unique scenery. Next to the water source, the Twist Army also opened up many fields, and it is not possible to see what crops are planted, but looking at the scale, it seems that it can be self-sufficient. It turned out to be a blessed place.
Standing on the top of the mountain and looking into the distance, the layers of mountains are far away. The aura in his chest suddenly appeared, and there was a feeling of 'being at the top of the mountain and seeing the mountains at a glance'.
If you stay away from the red dust, how bad is it to be white-headed here. Tan Sitong thought secretly. Why bother fighting in the fireworks!
Xu Dwarf came down from the ten-mile slope and kept carrying Chen Jinnan on his back. He pushed the burden of Hongmen to this military advisor back then, just begging himself to escape from the world. After the great changes in the mountain hall yesterday, after listening to Zhu Huanyu's words of reprimanding herself, I thought that I had indeed been ashamed of my brothers over the years, especially this Hongmen military division. In today's withered and declining situation, I have an unshirkable responsibility. But he naturally hates the kind of world that is deceitful, and even more disdainful of power, money, fame and fortune. How do you balance your integrity with your self?
At this time, he saw the old department of the Twist Army, and saw the desperate situation of this secret camp, he suddenly had an idea, and he said to Chen Jinnan: "I will live here in the future, you don't want to let these old brothers of the Twist Army go out to fight hard." I'll let them settle down here. Spend your old age peacefully. In the future, the brothers who were martyred in Hongmen can also flee here for refuge. Hongmen, young and old, are also sent here, and I give them food and clothing without worry. We leave a clean place for our children and grandchildren to live. No killing, no strife, no separation. Regardless of whether he is a Manchu or a foreigner, I don't think anyone would come to this place where there is no dispute with the world to kill people and set fires. This is also a good deed that I have done for the Hongmen brothers. ā
Tan Sitong agreed with Xu Xiaoshi's opinion. Isn't this the ideal Datong society? With the sun and the moon, and the mountains and forests grow old. Brothers are on a blind date, old and young.
What a simple wish, in fact. It's just that the world outside, when will this ideal be realized?
Who provoked those sufferings? Who caused those killings? Popularity! Desire!
Xu Dwarf can establish his ideal country here, and he still has to return to that world and fight for this kind of life for more people!
"I promise you, and I will be the first to come to you. This world belongs to young people, so leave it to them. I'm too old to fight. I don't want to fight anymore. Chen Jinnan replied sadly. tightened the hand of Xu Dwarf, who was carrying his back.
The two have been strangers for decades. Xu Xiaoshi threw the burden of a thousand catties to himself. But who would have known that he was the one who helped Zheng Xu escape from the main altar back then?
The two have been trained at the main altar since childhood, learned martial arts together, familiarized themselves with sages together, and discussed their lives together. One day, Zheng Xu said, I don't want to be someone else's puppet, I don't want to live a life arranged by others. I only have one life, and I want to go my own way.
He would rather give up the position of the supreme helmsman of the Hongmen in the world, and would rather not learn the world's first martial arts. How can I not envy his courage, how can I not admire his free and easy! Naturally, it was to help him fulfill his wish.
So that night, the two got the master drunk, stole a small boat, and sent this Zheng Xu to the sea. But the sea is vast, Zheng Xu was still a child at the time, could he escape from the sea alive?
After that, there was no news of him, and it was not until he officially took over as a military advisor that he knew that this kid was not dead, and he was still living the life he wanted.
I also want to escape. But there is another principle to be followed, and that is responsibility.
Zheng Xu is gone, who will take over the burden of Master? Only one shoulder picked it up. How can I leave it alone for the sake of my own selfish desires? If someone wants to be free, he needs someone to give him freedom.
From then on, he not only had to learn how to strategize and be a good military advisor, but also had to learn how to select talents, manage helpers, and help Zheng Xu take over the responsibility of the helmsman. I've been tired all these years. The best apprentice died, the best brother left, and the huge flood gate was scattered. Is it because you didn't do your best? Is it your own incompetence?
It's not, over the years, I have been wearing my liver and gall, dreaming of sleeping at night, and I have always done my best to Hongmen, and I have died. We have done our duty. I've thought of all the ways I can think of, and I've fought all the things I can fight for.
He launched a riot of hundreds of thousands of people, but the Manchus still did not drive them away, and lured the foreigners into the house. killed two emperors, but the woman who came to power was more clever. It just can't bring down this criminal regime.
Is there no way to make a good life for the Han people? Is there no way out for the country to settle again? Does Sun Wen have this ability? Is Tan Si along?
Chen Jinnan was thinking wildly, and everyone had come to the top of the mountain. An old man with a white beard greeted him.
He is Guo Zhai, the owner of the secret camp. Guo Zhai's status in the Twist Army is not low, and he met the military advisor Chen Jinnan in his early years. He saw Chen Jinnan and hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute, this person was old and serious, but he did not lose his temper, although he was sad to hear the news of Zhang Zongyu's death, he still did not forget his duty, and arranged his subordinates to continue to guard the cave in an orderly manner, and asked someone to arrange food and accommodation as soon as possible. Then take everyone to the stockade to rest.
The camps are all made of local materials and made of stones. A gravel road winds its way, and the stone houses on both sides are built along the mountain. The total number of villages built is staggered and natural. It's simple, but it's interesting. From afar, it's a stone town.
Each room is also equipped with military installations, with armed guards deployed at key points. It seems that even in isolation from the world, the Twist Army still did not let down his vigilance.
Guo Zhai assigned more than 1,000 brothers to each family to settle down, and then took Elder Hongmen and Tan Si and others to the conference hall of the Twisted Army.
It is a large stone castle like a bunker. On the ground floor is an empty council chamber with many bedrooms to rest in the back. On the second floor, there are military structures, which are guarded in shifts.
Guo Zhai asked everyone to rest first, and then went to supervise the arrangement of dinner.
After a day and a night of fighting and fleeing, everyone was exhausted. Everyone didn't care about visiting the secret camp, so they all quickly rested for a while.
Only Zhu Huanyu didn't dare to rest, she wanted to help Chen Jinnan prepare an antidote. At that time, because she was afraid of Chen Jinnan, she painted on the jade seal a unique poison extracted from the five poisons of the five-step snake, the hundred-legged centipede, the colorful spider, the golden armor toad king and the poisonous gecko. If it weren't for Chen Jinnan's profound skills, he would have been poisoned by this time. Zhu Huanyu didn't want to have a deep hatred with Hongmen at this time, she wanted to detoxify Chen Jinnan immediately.
The poison on Chen Jinnan's body is no longer in the way, but these five poisons are domineering, and he fled in a hurry, so he can't force it out for a while. But given the time, Chen Jinnan is still not afraid of this little insect venom.
But Zhu Huanyu naturally doesn't know this, the disaster starts from her, if Chen Jinnan dies in her own hands, then the Zhu family will be wiped out, she knows this layer of power. Originally, she had an antidote on her, but this required a medicine primer, which was the fruit of dendrobium.
In the Qinling Mountains, this fruit can be seen everywhere, but I don't know if it can be found in Zhongtiao Mountain. Zhu Huanyu hesitated for a moment, still wanting to ask Tan Sitong for help.
This time, she was eager to save people, but she didn't have many selfish intentions. It turns out that dendrobium only grows on cliffs, and this secret camp is full of cliffs, and it stands to reason that they can be found. However, the cliffs here are steeper than other places, all hundreds of feet high. And smooth as a mirror, it is difficult to climb with bare hands. Without the help of a master like Tan Sitong, Zhu Huanyu really didn't dare to take risks.
She went to Tan Si's bedroom and knocked on the door to explain her intentions. Tan Sitong heard that he was looking for an antidote for Chen Jinnan, so he naturally agreed.
Dendrobium likes to grow in mild and sunny terrain, so the two of them are looking for cliffs that can be reached by sunlight. searched all the way, but there was no gain, seeing that the sun had been swallowed up by the mountains, Tan Sitong was a little anxious. Urging Zhu Huanyu to hurry up.
