Chapter Seventy-Nine: A Place

Same time, different place.

Zhao Shu only felt that her eyelids were beating faster and faster, so that she couldn't rest properly, and her heart was pounding extremely fast, as if something bad was about to happen.

"Shushu, are you still uneasy?" Wei Tingsi brought her a cup of warm tea, "Worried about your father?" ”

Zhao Shu nodded, "Well, this flood, I always feel that the world will be in chaos, what do you say those people think, there are natural disasters and creations*, aren't you afraid of being punished by God?" ”

Having said that, even she felt that this was a good opportunity to rebel, if she was one of those vassal kings, knowing that she was going to be wiped out, it would be stupid not to take the opportunity to reverse when the natural disaster came.

Wei Tingsi stretched out his hand to soothe the sorrow between her eyebrows for her, and said softly: "Don't worry, King Yan doesn't have that guts." ”

This kind of comfort, even he himself felt pale and powerless, now it is not a question of whether he has the courage or not, but if he does not stand up and resist, he will be destroyed, even if King Yan himself does not have that courage, the people around him also have.

What's more, there is also a King Jing and King Shu in the fiefdom of King Yan, these two are not fuel-efficient lamps, King Shu has taken root in Sichuan and Shu for two generations, and he has long been a veritable King of Shu, how can he be willing to be cut off now?

"What if King Yan has it? The teacher went to Shuzhong, and my father went to Chudi, and my heart was very confused. "If King Yan and King Shu really choose to rebel at this time, then the first to bear the brunt must be Liwei, kill Luo Hu and King Yong, and pour dirty water on their heads as a crime.

Under the banner of asking for the people's lives, it is easy to get the support of the people.

Wei Tingsi took her into his arms in distress, gently rubbed her hair, and whispered with relief, "Don't worry, your father Wang and Mr. Luo are not ordinary people, they can protect themselves, don't think about it, we will see the Yucao monk tomorrow, and we will return to Beijing the day after tomorrow, how about it?" ”

Zhao Shu sighed, it can only be like this, what else can I do? She thought that if she didn't go out of Beijing, if she didn't ask about the world, she might not be in danger, but how could it be?

"I'll take you somewhere." Wei Tingsi seemed to have made up his mind, and said this sentence with extreme caution.

Zhao Shu looked at him when she heard this, "What place?" "With the last time she looked at the stars, she doesn't really look forward to 'this place' now.

Wei Tingsi was quite injured, and he deeply felt that it seemed difficult to open Zhao Shu's heart and let her give her heart to herself.

But he never thought of giving up, this woman was something he had identified early on, how could he give up lightly?

"A place where you can feel at ease." Wei Tingsi took her by the waist, and several of them jumped up, flew up the wall, and went all the way out of the city, and about an hour or so, they came to a small village.

The small village is quiet, no one, and the houses are extremely dilapidated, which has a * feeling.

There is a wooden sign hanging crookedly on the big tree at the entrance of the village, and the sign reads "No Man's Village" three strange characters, which make the village even more weird.

Zhao Shu raised her head and looked at Wei Tingsi, "What are you bringing me here for?" Instinctively, she felt that it was not easy here.

Wei Tingsi grinned, and pretended to scare her, and grimaced, "*, are you afraid?" ”

Zhao Shu shook her head, it's not that she hasn't watched ghost movies, although she has traveled and been reborn, but she still contradictoively insists on the atheism in her heart, and the strange insistence that even she feels incredible.

Wei Tingsi was deflated, took her hand, and stepped into the uninhabited village, where the road was full of weeds, and the dilapidated houses emitted a musty smell after the heavy rain, which made people almost suffocate.

"Shushu, what do you say you're afraid of?" Wei Tingsi started gossiping, trying to divert Zhao Shu's attention, seeing her worried appearance, he was very distressed.

"I'm afraid that something will happen to my father and the teacher." Zhao Shu told the truth.

Nottings: ......

As he spoke, he had entered the village, and along the way, out of the dilapidated house, there was not even a single mouse, "Do you want to hear the story of this village?" ”

"Yes." Anyway, walking was extremely boring, Zhao Shu didn't care very much, and nodded with a wistful expression.

"Legend has it that this village was very prosperous before, and there were a few good people in the village, and a god in the sky heard about it, so he wanted to go down to earth to try whether these people were really so kind."

"So the fairy turned into an ugly man, and came to the village, begging from house to house, and when the people saw that he was ugly and his face was full of pus, they all refused to let him in, and only gave him dog food, and the fairy felt that he had been deceived, and in a fit of anger, he wanted to punish the people in the village, but then a woman appeared."

"The woman is very beautiful, she doesn't mind the ugly appearance of the fairy, and she heals the pus on his face more carefully, and as the days go by, the fairy falls in love with the woman, and slowly, the fairy pretends to be cured and reveals his true face, so he successfully marries the woman."

When the story comes to this, if an ordinary woman listens to it, she will definitely say something after listening to it, but Zhao Shu doesn't ask about the follow-up, only says in her heart, sure enough, whether it is a fairy or a mortal, it is necessary to look at the face.

"But the good times didn't last long, and many women in the village saw that the fairy was beautiful, so they had bad intentions." After that, he carefully observed Zhao Shu's dark color, saw that she didn't have too many expressions, and continued: "The women all want to marry the fairy, but the fairy doesn't want to marry, and only wants to live with his wife, the village girls have no choice but to find another way, and finally they found an opportunity, one day the fairy returned to the sky, and the village girls killed the woman." ”

What a clichΓ© story, but Zhao Shu knew what he wanted to express, and her heart was warm.

"When the fairy returned to the village, he found that the woman was dead, and he cursed the village in a fit of rage, but all the people in this village, the people who lived in this village, did not live for more than three years, and it was useless to flee anywhere, so this became a no-man's village."

The simple story is very sad, and it is not so touching when it comes out of the mouth of a person who is not good at words, but Zhao Shu knows that this must be a touching and poignant story.

After telling a story, Wei Tingsi also took Zhao Shu's hand to a crumbling, dusty house, which seemed to have lived a solid family, and there were two couplets at the door of the house, which were intact.

Wei Tingsi tore off the cloak on his body and covered Zhao Shu's body, "There is a mechanism, follow me, don't touch it." He said.

Zhao Shu nodded, "Yes." She knew that there was something wrong with this village, and that there was no curse in this world, it was just a trick.

Entering the house, a strong musty smell came to the nose, Zhao Shu choked a few mouthfuls, as soon as the door was closed, the inside became dark, looking at the room from the outside, it seemed that it should not be so dark, Zhao Shu couldn't think of a reason for a while.

Wei Tingsi hugged Zhao Shu and said, "Open the door." ”

As his voice fell, there was a sudden sound of the iron plate moving, rattling, and after the sound, the dark room was immediately illuminated.

The source of the light was under the floor, and a hole was removed at the foot, which was not large, allowing only one person to go down.

The light of the ever-bright lamp came out of it, and the staircase of the mouth appeared in front of the two of them, and Wei Tingsi took Zhao Shu's hand, "Come." ”

He walked down the stairs first before reaching out to pick up Zhao Shu.

Zhao Shu held his hand and walked down the narrow staircase step by step, and appeared in the room below after a while.

Although it is a basement, it is not stuffy, the ventilation is excellent, it is not hot, and there is a cool wind blowing.

"What is this place?" Zhao Shu looked around and found that there were gray-clothed people standing guard every other distance, and they didn't salute when they saw Wei Tingsi, as if they were wood carvings.

After going down the stairs, there is a passage more than two meters wide, the passage is lined with hard rock, and a few grooves have been chiseled in the rock wall, and lamp oil is placed, which is supposed to be whale oil, which can be used for a long time.

Walked through the long passage with Wei Tingsi, the passage was quiet, only the slight sound of footsteps and breathing was heard, Zhao Shu came to this kind of place for the first time, for some reason, she was inexplicably a little relieved.

"Armory." Wei Tingsi did not hide it, "Do you remember the birthday gift you gave to the emperor?" ”

Zhao Shu nodded, "Yes." Her eyes lit up, "Have you made it?" ”

Wei Tingsi nodded, reached out to straighten the hair stuck to the corners of her mouth, and said with a smile: "I've been researching, it's you who gave me inspiration, and it seems that I owe you a favor." ”

Zhao Shu grinned, this is really a place that can make people feel at ease.

There is a kind of power called fear, which is more reliable than being loved and making people fearful, Zhao Shu has always believed in it.

The two of them walked a distance, turned seven or eight corners, and finally came to a large stone room.

There are three doors in the stone room, like the legendary blessed land secret realm, the door of life and death, very mysterious, and unguarded.

Naturally, Zhao Shu would never really think that there was no guard, but she just didn't know where to hide.

Wei Tingsi opened one of the doors familiarly, and Zhao Shu asked him, "Is this a raw door?" ”

"For you, this door is all the door of life, but for others, it is all the door of death." Wei Tingsi said funny, he had also heard the myths and legends, and he knew in his heart that they were all false, but what he didn't expect was that Zhao Shu would ask such a question.

Hearing this, Zhao Shu was embarrassed, and two crimson balls flew on her cheeks, and this lovely moment made Wei Tingsi's heart suffocate.

After the door, there is a cliff, and the sound of rumbling water can be heard below, as if you are on top of a waterfall.

The forest here is very dense, and the huge trees cover the chain bridge on the cliff tightly, Zhao Shu looked down and saw that it was an extremely deep high cliff, she was afraid of heights, so she only glanced at it, and then withdrew her gaze.

"Let's go." Wei Tingsi Dao, took him on the iron rope a few times, the speed was extremely fast, Zhao Shu felt that he had appeared on the opposite side in the blink of an eye.

On the other side of the cliff were a few stone houses, very well camouflaged, and the houses were covered with dense vines, and if it weren't for the gray-clothed man beside the house, he wouldn't have known that it was a house, let alone look at it from the opposite side, and from the opposite side there were only dense green leaves.

The gray-clothed man saw Wei Tingsi saluting one after another, but he didn't speak, but when he saw Zhao Shu, he was slightly stunned.

Wettings led her through the path to the bottom of the waterfall, where she could already see rows of houses, all furnished in them not much different from the blacksmith shop outside.

The only difference is that there are a lot of weapons inside.

"This place seems to be able to train soldiers." Zhao Shu said, this is the depths of the dense forest, except for hunters, no one will come at all.

However, there are no hunters here.

Wei Tingsi smiled mysteriously, "Clever." (To be continued.) )
