Chapter 2 (21) Mountain Temple (Medium)

As soon as the young woman's words fell, she felt that the hall that had been in chaos just now suddenly became silent, as if someone in the darkness suddenly waved his big hand, and all the noise suddenly disappeared without a trace; The sound of the wind and rain brushing against the roof, and the endless crackling and dripping sound under the front porch of the temple, now sounded very clear and unusually harsh. She had a sudden shock in her heart, and when she cautiously raised her eyes to observe, she saw two sharp gazes brushing over her like two cold-shining knives, staring straight at her face. A cool breath rising from the bottom of her heart made her shiver all over her body, and her mouth was shutting down. She hooked her head down with all her might, desperately avoiding the two devouring glances, until at last her chin was almost on her chest, but she could not get rid of the two aggressive gazes, which seemed to be staring directly at her soul.

Before Shang Cheng could speak, Zhao Shishi had already scolded first: "What kind of nonsense are you talking about in your mother's mouth!" One more nonsense to hack you alive! He forced a smile and turned his face to Shang Cheng and said, "Brother monk, don't believe her nonsense, the country women don't know anything, you can believe what others say, and you will spread it indiscriminately." Huojiabao was burned by the Turks? Still five days ago? Five days ago, the people of Tuqi were still drinking in front of Gongqian Pass! I don't believe they can fly with wings! Didn't Master Miaozhu say it just now, and he was able to defeat Panlongling...... "The more he said, the lower his voice became, and the more he said it, the weaker his tone became, obviously he didn't know the bottom of what he said just now, he inquired about the recent situation of Huojiabao for Shang Cheng, and Miaozhu also said that he had heard rumors that Huojiabao was burned, and he was suspicious at that time; Because he was afraid that Shang Cheng would be worried, and he was also afraid that Shang Cheng would make some mistakes after hearing the news, he didn't dare to tell the truth. It's just that he didn't expect that the lie that exposed him was actually a young woman, and this woman was provoked by him......

Shang Cheng didn't seem to listen, he just stared at the woman with his brows, and then asked in a dumb voice: "Who did you listen to, Huojiabao was burned?" ”

At this time, the night had fallen, and the people in the hall were crowded one after another, and the dim lights in front of the statue of the god illuminated the faces of the people as yellow and dark, and the figures reflected on the walls swayed and crawled with the ghostly light of the fire, and everyone was silent...... This situation, this scene, this person, and this thing, all in one place, actually made a good mountain temple hall like a dark and terrifying netherworld in the blink of an eye.

When the woman heard Shang Cheng's question, she had the courage to look up at him, and immediately buried her head in horror, and the inflamed and festering wound on Shang Cheng's face was originally frightening, and now it was shone from the side by the light of an oil lamp, as if a gray-white mouth had grown out of his face; Coupled with the fact that half of his face reflected in the light was so numb from injury that he could not show the slightest expression, his long and thin face became even more hideous and terrifying.

Shang Cheng was worried about Lianniang in his heart, and he wanted to get some accurate news from the woman, but the woman didn't speak for a long time, and Zhao Shishi was rumbling around again, and he felt a fire rising in his chest. He clenched his fists and pressed the fire again, trying to make his tone sound calmer, and then asked, "How did you know about Huojiabao?" When and where did you hear about it? How did the man who told you about it, how did he know about it......"

The woman still did not dare to look up at him, nor did she speak.

Zhao Shishi was still comforting him: "...... If you can't beat Panlongling, how can the Tuqi people go to Huojiabao? Even after Panlong Ridge, if they want to fight Huojiabao, they have to be vigilant against the guards in Yixian County behind them. Besides, the news should have reached Huojiabao a long time ago, if my sister-in-law hadn't entered the county town to avoid the military disaster, she must have entered the mountains. Don't worry, I'll keep my sister-in-law fine, she can follow her aunt's family in the county, and go to the mountains to take care of the mountain baby, you might as well worry more about yourself......"

Shang Cheng suddenly glared at him and shouted, "Shut up! ”

This roar was made by him in a fit of rage, his voice was so loud that it could not be increased, and the light of the oil lamp in front of the statue of the mountain god also suddenly expanded and contracted a few times, and the beams of the doors and windows of the main hall suddenly trembled slightly, and the dust accumulated for many years in the high place fell down in a flutter. The temple that stood in front of him was dark, and he fainted to the ground with a plop. Everyone in the hall was dizzy from the sudden roar, and their ears were buzzing for a while. A few dolls shrunk in the arms of the mother and the old man were so frightened that they cried.

Zhao Shishi immediately closed his mouth, but kept giving the woman a look, don't tell the truth!

Shang Cheng gritted his teeth, stared at the woman and asked word by word: "What happened in Huojiabao, is it true or false?" ”

The woman stammered, "...... Yes, I heard it. …… The people of Tu Ji Ci, the people of Tu Ji Ci, came from Bohaiwei along the mountain road,......"

Bohaiwei?! Coming down the mountain road?!

Shang Cheng and Zhao Shishi looked at each other in shock and fear. Oh my God! This mountain road from Yi County to Bohaiwei passed by before they passed in front of Zhuangzi...... Could it be that the Shanwazi family also suffered an accident?

Shang Cheng was silent, and Zhao Shishi retorted to the woman with the hope of just in case: "Are you hungry and faint?" It is difficult for empty-handed people to walk that road, not to mention that the people of Tuqi still ride horses, which is a two-hundred-mile mountain road! ”

The woman suddenly raised her head stubbornly, stared at Shang Cheng and said, "Believe it or not!" Five days ago, a group of Tuqi people came out of the mountains and burned several Zhuangzi in a row, and Huojiabao burned the earliest! ”

"Who will believe you if you talk with empty teeth and white teeth?" Shi sneered, "Even if the Turks came from the mountains, how many of them could come?" It's amazing that there are only twenty or thirty people...... Huojiabao is a big castle, and there are 100 people in Xiangyong, and 20 or 30 people want to order it, isn't that a long life? ”

"It's not twenty or thirty people, it's hundreds," Zhao Shishi's words obviously annoyed the woman. She was now like an enraged female leopard, staring at Zhao Shishi fiercely, and said, "The soldiers of Yi County and the soldiers of the South Gate Battalion of Yi County have dispatched a lot, and many people have died, so that the group of Tuqi people can be driven into the mountains again!" ”

Shang Cheng grabbed the vegetable dumplings that had been kneaded into a handful of crumbs by himself, and fell into deep thought. He had already believed the woman's words, and since the people of Tuqi could break through the village quietly, they would naturally be able to kill Jinyi County quietly. If this is the case, the Shanwazi family is afraid that it will be more than lucky. Alas, forget it, now is not the time to worry about the mountain baby, no matter how much he worries, he is busy in vain. Fortunately, Shan Wazi was a hunter and knew the land around Zhuangzi well, and if there were really Tu Tu people, he would definitely know where to hide people. What he is most worried about now is that Lianniang has been dragging her body for more than six months, and she can't run and walk, if she really can't avoid the Tu Exhaustion people...... He didn't dare to imagine what kind of picture he was greeted with.

No, he had to find his wife quickly. Either way, he was going to find her. Even if she ......

He forced himself not to think about it this way.

No, the wife will definitely be fine, she will definitely not go to the mountain baby. It is likely that she went to the county town with Uncle Seventeen's family to avoid the disaster. This is her simplest and most reliable choice, she can take the carriage of Uncle Seventeen's family to the county seat, and after arriving at the county seat, she can also have a place to stay, and Aunt Seventeen and Er Ya Yue'er can also take care of her. She must be waiting in peace somewhere in the county seat of Yixian now, waiting for herself to be reunited with her.

The only plan now is how to get to Yi County as soon as possible.

He looked anxiously at the dark night outside the main hall.

The rain is still falling. But the sound of the rain hitting the roof is no longer as dense and rapid as it was before, indicating that the rain is slowing down. But he could not walk at once, and he could never walk at night in the absence of lighting; Moreover, it was still a forty-mile slippery mountain road, and it was even more dangerous to be on guard against encounters with fierce beasts and wandering Thurts along the way.

But when he couldn't see his wife, he couldn't help but worry about her. He believed that his wife was worried about him now; Perhaps she was in a more anxious and worse mood than he was, after all, she knew that the destination of his trip was Beizheng and Ruqizhai, both of which were now in the hands of the Tuqi people......

What to do?

He must find a way to hurry back to Yi County and find his wife as soon as possible!

Quick, think, think of a way......

…… A fire suddenly lit up outside the mountain temple, and then the temple door that was tightly sealed by the door bolt wooden bar was slammed into the loud sound, and someone shouted outside the temple: "Open the door quickly!" Officers and soldiers passing by, open the door! ”

The people in the temple, men and women, old and young, were all frightened and shrunk together, staring at the temple gate in horror and not daring to respond.

"Suffers from the sissy plague! All the people in the temple are dead? You, you, and you, get me over the wall! ”

Several black shadows flashed on the courtyard wall of the mountain temple, followed by a few loud bangs of opening the temple door, and people outside rushed in with torches. In an instant, all the points in the front yard were full of people, and the bright swords and guns warned the people in the left and right corridors inside and outside the hall not to act rashly.

More than a dozen soldiers surrounded an officer and walked towards the main hall, and the officer instructed as he walked: "Let the brothers hurry up and drink water and eat, and then rest, and we will set off in an hour." He turned his face and ordered another person, "You go and see if there are any townspeople here, and if there are, you will be included in the team." Ask who knows the way to Yi County, those who are willing to lead the way will be given five times, the first two times, and the rest will be made up in Yi County......"

He said as he walked the steps into the main hall, casually looking around with the fearful gazes of the crowd, and when he was about to speak, he suddenly babbled and frowned.
