After setting up a gambling game to subdue these thousands of people, Li Xiaofei and his party officially embarked on the journey to Bashu.

They passed through the ancient battlefield of the past, paid a tribute to Liu Bei and Lu Xun, and then crossed Jiangxi.

After walking for three days, they had already arrived at the junction of Wuling and Badong, and these thousands of men and horses were in trouble, and someone was ambushing them on the road.

Liu Mingge swung his sword and hit the flying arrows: "Boy, do you find it, these natives are not blind archers, do you see these tree stumps at our feet?" ”

Several soldiers used their shields to protect Li Xiaofei and retreated to the left side of the path, and the natives stopped shooting arrows

"Sir, it seems that these people are not trying to kill us, but not to let us go to the right side of the road!"

"Order, all walk on the left side, and do not cross the road. It seems that there is also some credibility in what the book says! ”

Li Xiaofei slowly poked his head out of the shield: "Mr. Liu, didn't you say that it is better to have no book than to have no book?" Why is it credible today? ”

"It's called flexibility, you kid is really an elm pimple. It is said in ancient books that there was a hero named Ba Manzi in this country of Ba in ancient times, who would rather kill himself in front of the king of Chu than cede the city and land. It seems that the descendants of this Ba people have inherited his bloodline and regard the boundaries of this land very seriously. Liu Mingge suddenly thought of something, and immediately added: "Array the tree shield, prepare to defend against the enemy!" ”

As soon as the words fell, there were also bamboo guns and arrows on the left, and the soldiers who were slow to react had already been pierced and fell to the ground wailing.

"What the hell, in the past, the county guards and county commanders in the land of Bashu never reported these situations to the imperial court!" Qin Le, the inner supervisor of the prison army, complained

"Needless to say, the leaders of these natives must have been bribed a long time ago to pass through these roads!" Li Xiaofei immediately thought of the reason

"Don't panic, they are only a few hundred people, we will not move, and don't rush to fight back, wait until they are finished fighting! Those county guards and county orders can pass, can't our dignified Pingxi Generalissimo Prince Li Xiaofei still get by? Liu Mingge was calm and advised everyone to continue to defend and not fight back.

After a while, the natives stopped their attack and slowly moved towards the Liang army, the stout man in the front holding a large banner with a white tiger painted on it, and there was a man riding a white tiger in the back who looked like a leader.

Li Xiaofei saw the other party slowly approaching, so he poked his head out and shouted: "We are not here to occupy your land, we are just borrowing the road to Chengdu!" I hope the boss will be accommodating! ”

The man riding the white tiger waved his hands from side to side a few times, and the natives stopped attacking, and then shouted: "Whose men and horses are you?" How did you get from here? ”

"We are Li Xiaofei's handsome people, we came across the river from Yaoting, and we want to go to Chengdu, if you are offended, please forgive me!"

"Li Xiaofei? Haven't heard of it! In the past, your people went to Chengdu from Jiangbei! This Jiangnan is the realm of our land king, how can you allow you to invade wantonly! The herald of the natives replied very clearly

Li Xiaofei and the others looked at each other, daring to love that they had taken the wrong path.

Li Xiaofei waved his hand towards the Earth King riding the White Tiger: "Earth King, we are just borrowing the way!" Not in vain! Give money! ”

"No money! I just won't let you live! The answer on the other side was very simple

"The price is negotiable! Soil King! What we have is money! Li Xiaofei continued

"Lao Tzu doesn't want money! I just won't let you pass! As he spoke, the natives' arrows came again

Liu Mingge was furious and swung his sword and ran over, and with a mistake of divine skill, he had already grabbed the neck of the earth king and lifted him over

"Tell your people to stop!"

"Lao Tzu can't help it, there are people stopping you in front of you when you kill me, you can't get by!" The earth king's expression was not panicked, but threatened Liu Mingge

"I won't kill you, I'm going to chop off your fingers one by one, and then chop off from the toes, and cut your flesh piece by piece, you can not be afraid of death, but I have a way!" As he spoke, Liu Mingge pressed the left hand of the Earth King to the ground and gestured with his sword

"Count you ruthless! Stop! is still a scholar, how can he be more ruthless than bandits? The Earth King was relieved, in the soil king's cognition, a person dressed like Liu Mingge was just a teacher, but he never expected this person to have such skills and make ruthless moves.

The words of the Tuwang were really good, the natives stopped attacking one after another, and Liu Mingge also let go of the Tuwang: "Our Daliang's army doesn't want to start a war with you, but just wants to go to Chengdu by the way, if you have to stop it, then our Daliang has to wipe you out!" ”

"Girder? Isn't it Daqin? When did Daqin die? The Earth King was shocked

"I don't know if there is a Han or Wei Jin? Are you the people in the Peach Blossom Garden? Li Xiaofei interjected

"Our ancestors were named the king of the earth by Great Qin, and they have guarded this place for Great Qin for generations! No, a few months ago, the people you came to buy tea and golden silk nanmu said that they bought it for the Great Qin Emperor? Tuwang looked at these Central Plains people in front of him and began to doubt life

Li Xiaofei patted the Tuwang on the shoulder: "Whatever, if you don't fight, you don't know each other, we can meet here today, it's fate, it's better to ask the Tuwang to show us the way, we won't let you help in vain" As he spoke, he took out two gold leaves from his arms and handed them to the Tuwang

The Earth King's eyes widened, and he picked up the gold leaf and took a bite: "You are so generous!" Okay, we're not greedy for money, since we're not enemies, that's my friend, and our friend is here to entertain us with good wine and food! Walk! ”

The king of Tu no longer cared whether these people were Qin or Liang, but took them back to his palace together, no! It's Dongfu!

The palace of the king of earth is in a cave between two cliffs that look like splits, and to enter the cave, you have to take a boat to the bottom of the cave and climb the stone steps on the rock wall to go up.

The stream under the boat is clear, and you can clearly see the reflection of people and boats, although Liu Mingge is well-informed, he has to praise it.

"Where people walk in the painting, the boat is like a cloud floating freely, and the sun and moon are watched in the mirror under your feet, and you can meet this sedum blessing!"

Liu Mingge groaned casually, and the people around him applauded. At this time, only Li Xiaofei and Liu Mingge entered the cave together, and the rest of the people and horses settled down in the village that entered the cliff.

The earth king pointed to a square boulder on the stone steps: "My palace is almost here, this place is called Ping Mountain, there are two screen-like cliffs here as a barrier, ordinary people can't find here, and if they want to attack, there is no way!" ”

After speaking, he looked at Liu Mingge proudly, Liu Mingge nodded: "Such a ingenious place, you have found it, admire and admire, you must have hoarded a lot of grain and grass in the cave behind this boulder, condescending, as long as there are no traitors in the cave, you really can't beat it!" ”

When the earth king heard Liu Mingge's approval, he smiled: "But this kind of thing is generally not encountered, and it has been peaceful with the outside world for hundreds of years, at most, it is to make trouble with other earth kings because of cows eating crops, stealing chickens and touching dogs." Our people in Wuling Mountain don't like to fight like you, we rely on the mountains to eat the mountains and rely on the water to live a good life! ”

Liu Mingge looked at Li Xiaofei: "Xiaofei, let's calm the world in the future, let's come here to retire!" I think this place is the peach blossom paradise written by Tao Yuanming in the past! ”

"It's unfortunate, now the peach blossoms are gone, next time you come, you must choose to come over in spring! The peach blossoms here stretch for hundreds of miles, and they are very beautiful," the king of the earth also began to introduce the situation beyond the Ping Mountain.

Under the guidance of the natives, several people went up to the cave of the Tuwang, and many of the furnishings in this cave are objects from the Qin Dynasty, even earlier bronze vessels, and even more amazing is that there is a set of bells.

Li Xiaofei turned left and right around the chime: "You made this chime yourself?" ”

The Earth King smiled: "Where we can smelt copper, we all got it from outside!" ”

"How did you get such a heavy thing, tens of thousands of catties?"

Liu Mingge glanced at Li Xiaofei: "What's so difficult about this?" With a winch waterwheel and a raft and logs, nothing can be moved! ”

The king of the earth bowed to Liu Mingge: "This teacher is really powerful, I always thought that readers were nerds who did not distinguish between grains and grains, but I didn't expect to meet a master today!" I didn't ask Mr. Gao's surname! ”

"In Xia Liu Mingge, he is indeed a nerd, haha, dare to ask the name of the Tuwang Zun? By the way, this is Li Xiaofei, the commander of the army outside! ”

"Amazing, amazing! My name is Liao Fan, I am the seventh generation of the king of the land here, not long ago, a messenger from Ba County came to say that there is a situation in your Central Plains, let us guard this passage into Shu! That's why I'm leading my people to ambush you on the road!" ”

"King Liao Tu, it's not a secret, it's the situation in Bashu, we went to Chengdu this time, it's to quell the chaos! When I came to your land this time, I realized that there are many things that are very different from what we used to know. This time I came to your cave mansion, and I hope you will give me more advice" Liu Mingge and Li Xiaofei both bowed to this Liao Fan

After Liao Fan returned the gift to them, he guided them to sit down, and then beckoned: "Go and prepare a banquet to entertain your guests!" ”

This time in Tuwang Cave Mansion, the food is naturally some mountain and river fish, but the drink is different, not that the wine has changed, but the drinking method has changed.

Thirty jars of wine were put out, ten jars in front of each of the three people, and a hundred wine cups were given to each person, Li Xiaofei thought that there would be a lot of people coming: "King Liao Tu, although this cave can accommodate 10,000 people, it is not enough for hundreds of people to drink such a little wine."

"Hahaha, General Li, how can we natives be so stingy? There are ten jars of wine per person, one at a time, and the cup will be broken when you drink it! Drink him cleanly and generously! ”

"It is rumored that the local people are bold and hospitable, and today is here, and it really lives up to its name! So those who come will not refuse! Liu Mingge picked up the wine cup and threw it first, breaking the wine bowl

Li Xiaofei was about to follow, Liu Mingge stretched out his foot and kicked him, Li Xiaofei understood, and waited for Liu Mingge to continue to signal.

"Why doesn't General Li drink it? Could it be that the dish is not good? Or am I Liao Fan slacking? Liao Fan raised the wine cup and signaled

The maid next to Liu Mingge had already poured another light for Liu Mingge: "King Liao Tu, this General Li is my eldest nephew!" According to etiquette, I had to drink three bowls before he could drink it, so he had to wait a while."

In fact, Liu Mingge is to prevent this earth king from poisoning the wine, Liu Mingge's martial arts are extremely high, so he is naturally not afraid, but if Li Xiaofei is poisoned, he will be in trouble.

When Liao Fan saw Liu Mingge say this, he also understood a little, so he smiled and said: "Our natives have clear grievances, the two distinguished guests don't have to be too cautious, just eat and drink with an open belly!" As he spoke, he did it three more times in a row

Liu Mingge also felt that there was nothing wrong with the three drinks, so he beckoned Li Xiaofei: "Big nephew, open to drink with King Liao Tu, if you are drunk, I will carry you back!" ”

It turned out that he was indeed overwhelmed, but Li Xiaofei was drunk again, Liu Mingge left him in the cave mansion and returned to the army outside the cliff by himself.

When Li Xiaofei woke up, Liao Fan came in with a wine cup again: "General Li, come on, come on, drink a glass of Huanyang wine"

Li Xiaofei almost fainted: "I really can't drink it!" King Liaotu! ”

"If you don't drink, you won't give me face, then I won't let you go!" Liao Fan also shook his head

Fortunately, Liu Mingge arrived in time, persuaded the two, and left Pingshan to continue their journey after a pleasant exchange.

Before leaving, Li Xiaofei left Liao Fan with 100 people to help them open up wasteland and build waterwheels and bamboo buildings, and unloaded 5,000 yuan to give to Liao Fan.

In order to repay Li Xiaofei, Liao Fan sent three guides to Li Xiaofei, and ordered people to report to the earth kings along the road to say hello.
