(585), Old Things in the Foggy Mountains
- Located on the southern outskirts of Kyoto, Kiriyama is named for its high forests, which are the main reason for the lingering fog. In foggy weather, the fog on the mountain can last until noon before it is gradually exposed to the stronger sunlight at noon. Even if the weather is clear, the humidity of the air in the deep mountains is extremely strong.
In Ye Zhengming's view, such a mountain environment is the easiest to grow naturally from the magic medicine Xianzhi.
When Mo Ye and his party left the gate of Nancheng, the morning sun was already very bright, and when the three of them walked into the Wushan Mountain Range, the feeling of coolness suddenly became obvious, and they didn't go far, I don't know if it was the fog or the moisture emitted by the rich vegetation that had wet the hair on their foreheads.
The mountain road is not only rugged, but also covered with knee-deep grass, but fortunately the leather boots are high enough, otherwise there is no need to walk to the mountainside, and ordinary cloth shoes are estimated to be wet inside.
At the beginning of the climb, the three of them had already held the long sickle in the basket behind their backs in their hands and used it to split the grass to open the way. At first, it was Yeno who was at the forefront, and she seemed to be very excited to take the lead and lead the way, claiming to live up to the name of the female general of the sickle, but she walked less than a mile of mountain road, and her feet were already weak and backward. As a result, the infantry formation was slightly replaced, and Ruan Luo was at the forefront.
In fact, if you rely on your strength, it should be the most appropriate for Mo Ye to walk in front, but she still hides her martial arts training from everyone, and if it is not necessary, she is ready to keep it like this. In this way, as a man, Ruan Luo, who is tall and tall, walks in front of the two women to open the way, which is also appropriate.
There is no roadbed with obvious direction on the mountain, and the forest is dense, and the sparse trees are not necessarily easy to walk. Because all of them were covered with deep grass that was half withered and half green, the three of them groped their way forward, only knowing that they were generally walking towards the mountains, and they would definitely walk a little more. It's also a little harder.
After walking like this for about an hour, the three of them were already sweating on their foreheads, Ruan Luo and Ye Nuonuo were a little gasped, but they were concentrating on the road ahead, but they didn't notice that Mo Ye, who was walking at the end, was breathing as usual, and most of the moisture on her forehead was caused by the water vapor of the mountains and forests, and it was not as much as the two people in front of her.
The sun was shining brightly, and the thin mist contained in the mountains and forests finally completely dispersed, and the three of them didn't know where they had reached Wushan, but in short, they suddenly saw a relatively flat clearing appear in front of them. For some reason, that deep thatch grew around the clearing. Nature stops spreading. The clearing was covered with only a layer of shallow grass. Looks a little peculiar.
After a brief discussion, the three of them walked into the flat ground and sat on the ground. Take a break for a while.
took out the water bladder he brought and drank saliva, moistened his throat with some dry hair, and after plugging the cork, Ye Nuonuo pinched the skin water bladder, and suddenly remembered the sandbag made by Shi Yi and what he said, and couldn't help but say in a new way: I remember that yesterday Brother B said that in that strange bag called 'Hand Warmer', if water was used to replace the sea sand, it would feel better. Is it possible to put water in it like a water bladder?
Ruan Luo, who was sitting next to her, didn't expect that she would still remember this all along. Although he didn't speak, he suddenly felt a touch in his heart.
Mo Ye, who was sitting on the other side, said with a smile: Yo, you changed your words so quickly and stopped calling him a bad stone? But that's okay, as far as you are Brother B, he must be willing to carefully teach you the method of changing sandbags to water bags step by step.
Cut, it's kind of cheap him. Ye Nuonuo muttered in a low voice, although she didn't say anything to refute Mo Ye, but obviously she still had a little unhappiness in her heart when she had just changed Shi Yi's title.
Seeing that she was silent, Mo Ye didn't plan to play with her on this issue anymore, but turned his gaze to Ruan Luo, and said: Brother Ruan, you have always had a weak stomach, drink less cold water.
As soon as she said this, Ye Nuonuo, who was silent, immediately echoed it.
It's okay, it's been a little hot along the way...... Ruan Luo's tone hesitated halfway through his words, because he saw the two girls' concerned eyes staring straight at him, and finally he had to change his words, okay......
After resting for a while, Mo Ye looked around, and then asked Ye Nuonuo: Uncle Ye often comes to this mountain, didn't he tell you any shortcuts?
Ye Nono immediately shook his head and said, "He only told me that if I go around to the west and climb the mountain, I will definitely reach that valley." But the stretch of the Foggy Mountains was so wide that the traces he had walked alone were too shallow, and sometimes even he couldn't find the way he had walked the day before. That's why we have to bring a long sickle, one to open the way, the other to leave the road behind, and then return the same way.
Mo Ye couldn't help but sigh when he heard this: This mountain is also peculiar enough, it is so close to Kyoto, but it is difficult to find any traces of people.
The grass is too deep, the forest is too dense, I'm afraid no one wants to come here except for the mountain bandits. Ye Nuonuo shook his head slightly, but to be honest, the reason why ordinary people are reluctant to come here is actually related to the mountain bandits. I heard that there was really a big nest of mountain bandits on this mountain before, and they did some things to block the road and rob, but fortunately, not long after the change of dynasty, the Kyoto Prefecture sent thousands of elite soldiers to go up the mountain to put an end to the mountain bandits.
Meddlesome. Mo Ye praised admittedly, because she suddenly remembered Wu Shu's matter, if there was no mountain bandits, I don't know how many families would be less troubled.
Then Mo Ye naturally remembered his life experience, could it be that his family was also robbed and killed by mountain bandits, so he would be so adrift since he was young? However, she quickly shook her head again and extinguished the thought, because she thought of Master.
If it's a mountain bandit, Master, he can't help it?
However, no matter how strong he is, there are indeed people who can't help it.
Thinking of this, Mo Ye suddenly had a strong impulse in her heart, I really hoped that one or two mountain bandits could appear out of thin air at this time to practice her hands. At the very least, she had to prove that she could fully defend herself against the bandits, and then she could boost her confidence and face stronger opponents.
So far, she has never really met an opponent who would bring her physical threats.
However, she glanced sideways at the two people who were traveling with her, and quickly dispelled the idea. The companion is innocent, and he doesn't know martial arts, in case there are really mountain bandits coming out, it will be really troublesome, and she suddenly felt ridiculous about what she just thought.
Ye Nuonuo saw that after she mentioned the mountain bandits, Mo Ye fell into a long silence, she was a little mistaken, and laughed and said: Don't worry, there can be no more bandits on this mountain. A few years ago, when the officers and soldiers of Kyoto Prefecture went up the mountain to encircle and suppress, they not only arrested a large group of people and put them in prison, but also set the cottage on fire, and the smoke of the fire burned all day, and the villagers living around the mountain could see it clearly. Who doesn't have long eyes and dares to fall into the grass on this mountain-
