Chapter 234: The Adventure of a Thousand Fallen Mountains (1)

However, it was said that Yan Guiwan and his party of four continued to drive west. After going through the first twists and turns, the next road went much smoother. Along the way, I don't know how many cities I have left footprints, and I don't know how many mountains and flowing water I have crossed.

Recalling the first time he went to Liangcheng two years ago, where did Xu Moqing have such leisure and elegance, he galloped all the way north at that time, and how many horses were paralyzed in the middle of the way! So much so that later, he couldn't remember the road he had traveled at all, and this time going to Liangcheng again was like a first visit, which was a complete strangeness.

Yan Guiwan and him are really half a catty to eight taels, it is really fifty steps and a hundred steps! She also felt strange everywhere she went, and there was no place that made her feel déjà vu; Even if there is a place that can make her feel like she has been here before!

However, it didn't.

Jiuying and Qiusheng sighed to each other, the two masters really didn't go all the way to the door! On the way, the two of them didn't quarrel about anything else, just because of the endless quarrel about which way to go!

Before I knew it, the weather had turned colder, and the four of them had changed their outfits in time, so they couldn't fall ill in the middle of the way.

Xu Moqing thought about it in her heart, thinking about how long it would take to get to Liangcheng. Although his heart was very urgent, he especially wanted to wake up one night, he and Yan Guiwan had crossed the border to Xizhou, and he wanted to find the whereabouts of his biological father without much effort. But he knew that it was impossible, and besides, after so many years, he was still short of this amount of time?

But here comes a serious problem, late autumn is approaching, and winter will soon be ushered in. Especially in the northwest border, and even in the Xizhou country on the other side of the border, there will be a long winter. Due to the region, there is no way to expect that it will be like Fengcheng, even in winter, it will not be so cold that the snow will be gluttonous and the sky will be closed.

Five-flowered horse, golden qiu. Just the four of them, a cart, two horses and four thin people, how much cold can they withstand?

Therefore, there is only one road in front of them, that is, to rush to Liangcheng while it is not yet winter, and then find a place to live there, spend the cold winter of this year, and then cross the border into Xizhou Country in the spring of the next year.

Yan Gui saw Xu Moqing in the evening, his brows were tightly locked, and the thumb of his left hand was slightly between his lips and teeth, and he had already guessed that he must have encountered another problem. So she relied on him and asked him to tell herself.

Xu Moqing analyzed the current situation with her, "That's probably it, what does Wan'er think?" ”

"Well, let's speed up the rest of the way, the scenery, you can see it whenever you want. Speaking of Liangcheng City, you may be able to see a different scenery! Yan Guiwan raised his hand to smooth his eyebrows, "Brother, don't be bitter and hateful, you taught me to take it easy all the way, why do you get more nervous the closer you get to Liangcheng?" ”

"The closer I get to the truth, the more scared I become." Xu Moqing said frankly.

Yan Guiwan asked Qiusheng to stop the carriage, called the two big officials over, and the four of them gathered around to survey the map again. This time, Yan Guiwan deliberately restrained her temperament, and only let the two big officials who had a good sense of direction speak, and she tried not to interject when Xu Moqing said anything.

"In other words, after turning over the mountain in front, we can be regarded as walking out of the Central Plains?" Xu Moqing confirmed.

Qiusheng nodded, "That's right, Xu Lang." Further on, the climate is bound to be very different from here, and with the late autumn and winter solstice, it will only get colder and colder. After climbing over this mountain, we have to go buy some mink furs. ”

"It's you who feel cold, and encourage the masters to buy mink fur!" Jiuying sneered.

Qiusheng hurriedly explained: "I'm not afraid that our Xu Lang will get sick again!" I had a bad stomach in Yancheng before, and I thought it was caused by the lack of adaptation to the water and soil. ”

The mountain in front of them is called Qianluo Mountain, which is the watershed between the Central Plains and the Northwest of the Eastern Liang Daughter Kingdom. With its steep mountains, rugged mountain roads, and scattered villages in the dense forest, it was not easy for them to get out of the mountains once, but they still maintained that primitive sense of mystery. It's really a bit "difficult to go to Shu, and it's difficult to go to the sky." "The taste!

But this is the only way to connect the Central Plains and the northwest, and the best choice is to cross it, and if you detour, it will take three or four times more time. Therefore, a kind of organization that cannot be suppressed by the official family has developed here - bandits. Relying on the favorable terrain of this thousand falling mountains, they can always escape the pursuit of the officials.

When the officials intensified their efforts to suppress bandits, the bandits naturally disappeared; But after that trend, the bandits rekindled like "weeds can't be burned".

It's a pity that these people don't know about it, even if they asked the old farmers at the foot of the mountain before entering the mountain. The old farmer is just the "trust" of the bandits, it is precisely because of her enthusiastic introduction, the beautiful scenery in this mountain is picturesque, the folk customs are simple, and you can climb over this thousand mountains in one or two days. Now that the maple leaves are all over the mountain, it is the best time to see them, and they have taken a bold step......

At first, the sheep intestine path was slightly exposed at the foot of the mountain, Xu Moqing and Yan Guiwan took the lead in walking in front to explore the way, and the two senior officials led the carriage and the other led the horse, and followed behind. The scenery on this Qianluo Mountain is indeed as the old farmer said, very beautiful, the mountain is full of red maple forests, and there are evergreen trees in the depths, which decorate this place like a paradise.

Yan Guiwan pinched a few red maple leaves in her hand, twisted them into Xu Moqing's hands, and said with a smile: "I borrowed flowers to offer Buddha and gave them to you!" ”

Xu Moqing took the maple leaf, and didn't know what it meant, "What are you giving me this?" ”

"Other people's Langqing received the flowers and grass from the female monarch, and they were all happy! My brother is good, like a piece of wood, and he is still asking me here! ”

Xu Moqing looked at Qiusheng, "Do you know what the wife means?" ”

Qiusheng smiled, "Xu Lang, of course the evening master thinks the maple leaf is beautiful and wants to give it to you!" ”

"Which is more beautiful than Maple Leaf?" Xu Moqing asked as if he was fighting.

Yan Guiwan glanced at him, "Don't worry about you uninteresting person." She ran to the front with a puff of smoke.

Xu Moqing snickered behind her, how could he not know her intentions, but he didn't know why, he always liked to tease her recently, and when he saw her puffing up, he felt funny.

For a while, Yan Guiwan called him in front again, "Brother, come quickly, there is a waterfall in front!" ”

Xu Moqing ran to her side helplessly, and looked in the direction of her finger, there was indeed a waterfall, but it was a little too small, right? It's much worse than the one I saw a few days ago.

"Why are you making such a fuss at night? Haven't you seen a waterfall along the way? Xu Moqing said sarcastically.

Yan Guiwan tugged at his sleeve, "I thought there wouldn't be one in this mountain!" She laughed smirked.

While the two masters were roaming on the mountainside, Jiuying and Qiusheng always felt that something was following them.

Because the horse in Jiuying's hand had screamed two or three times, although the horse in Qiusheng's hand had no abnormal behavior, he always felt that the arch behind him was rustling. The wife and husband deliberately slowed down, and the two walked side by side.

Jiuying said softly: "Fu Lang can feel that something is wrong?" ”

Qiusheng responded, "I always feel that something is peeking at us from a distance? ”

"Jackals, tigers and leopards?" Jiuying guessed, "The night we just left Fengcheng to sleep in the Martyrs' Tomb, we didn't meet those things, but we met here?" ”

"I don't know, or I don't know what kind of rabbit mountain eagle it is." Qiusheng said cautiously.

The wife and husband discussed, don't act rashly first, if it is still so abnormal after walking a little longer, then report it to the two masters in front.

Not far away, the laughter of Yan Guiwan and Xu Moqing was heard from time to time, and in the next moment, Jiuying and Qiusheng's eyes were dark......

Yan Guiwan suddenly felt a vision behind him, and hurriedly stood up and listened, but he couldn't hear anything. She picked up Xu Moqing and ran back, "Brother, something is wrong!" ”

Xu Moqing was also nervous, but the wife and husband returned the same way, and the shadows of Jiuying and Qiusheng were not noticed everywhere they passed, and even the carriage and livestock were gone. How is this possible? The carriage is not a trivial matter, and the two horses will neigh when they are frightened, how can they all disappear all of a sudden? It's so counterintuitive!

Yan Guiwan's smile was gone, and he naturally held the sword at his waist in his hand, and even subconsciously leaned in front of Xu Moqing, making a posture to protect him.

Xu Moqing pulled her back to her side, "It's weird here, don't be reckless." Qiusheng and Jiuying are our relatives, we should not abandon them, look for them slowly, and they should not be far away. ”

Yan Guiwan kept it in mind, "Brother rest assured." ”

As he spoke, the two of them searched for the place where there were wheel rut marks, and a few feet away, the wheel rut marks disappeared. Yan Guiwan squatted down and looked left and right, still not knowing what was wrong. She tilted her head and asked Xu Moqing, "This is too strange, isn't it?" ”

Xu Moqing stretched out his hand to help her up, "I don't know what to do." ”

Yan Guiwan's eyes suddenly became very frightened when she looked at him, she seemed to see something terrible. But opposite her was Xu Moqing, his heart "chuckled", and he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the evening?" Get up! ”

The words fell, but seeing Yan Guiwan suddenly get up, he immediately snatched the sword out of the scabbard in an instant, and the first sword grazed his left cheek and stabbed straight behind him, and at the same time he shouted: "Brother be careful!" ”

Because Yan Guiwan's movements were too forceful, Xu Moqing was almost knocked down by her. He immediately turned around, and as he turned, he flashed his sword as he did. He finally understood why Yan Guiwan was so frightened just now, because there were people on every towering tree in this mountain forest, and they were prostrate on it, all of them fierce and vicious, and they all held weapons in their hands.

To be more precise, every move of Yan Guiwan and his entourage, they can see it clearly from a high place. From the time they stepped into this thousand falling mountains, they have become the turtles in people's urns! Those guarding the trunk of the tree smiled hideously, and when Yan Guiwan crouched down to survey the wheel rut marks, they were preparing to sneak up behind them.

If it weren't for Yan Guiwan turning around and looking up, I was afraid that they would be plotted by this!

I can't help but say that the wife and husband have already started a fight with these people. But after only a few moves, the two of them had to stop. Because the number of this group of people has gradually increased from seven or eight people to dozens of people; What's more important is that Jiuying and Qiusheng, who disappeared before, are being caught in the neck by this group of people with knives.

The woman at the head dragged Jiuying to her, and without discussing any conditions, she pulled out her knife and stabbed Jiuying under the ribs, and then a miserable scream resounded in the valley.

Yan Guiwan's hands were trembling, and his eyes seemed to be breathing fire, "Is it a robbery?" Our wagons are full of goods, all for you, and for my men! ”

The woman in charge smiled contemptuously, "Negotiate with me to show your sincerity?" ”

Qiusheng's cry and Jiuying's scream made Yan Guiwan about to lose control, Xu Moqing first put his sword back into the scabbard, and then helped Yan Guiwan put the sword away. Then he took Yan Guiwan and walked a few steps forward, "We disarm, as long as you let our people go, everything is easy to say." ”

"Whether you let it go or not, the property in your carriage is also ours." The woman at the head said arrogantly.

"And what else do you want?" Yan Guiwan said angrily.

The woman walked into them alone, and she looked Xu Moqing up and down, "It is said that we never leave a living mouth, who told you to grow so thin and tender, you should have come from Kyoto, right?" She looked back and instructed her subordinates: "Tie them all up for me and take them back to the cottage!" ”
