The old man said, "The old man never speaks. Believe it or not, you will find out when you find the three brothers and ask. ”

Li Laohan thought about it in his heart, and finally said: "As long as they are really looking for the way for the Hua Han Dynasty to attack the Tartars, then I will fight for this old life and tell them the road I know." ”

The old man said: "Brother, think about it, if those three brothers didn't come with the life of the Huahan court, who would risk going over the mountain." The old life has been lost here, what is the picture? ”

When Li Laohan heard this, he pondered for a long time and said, "You are right, no one is going to climb the mountain, unless he dies." How did the other side of the mountain come up? ”

"I brought them up, and I also experienced all kinds of difficulties in my life!" The old man said.

"Oh, I see. So you're that you also live under the opposite mountain? Li Laohan asked.

"Yes, I'm the village chief." The old man said.

It turned out that this old man was the old village chief who fell into the deep valley and died, although he died, he was unwilling, but he was not dragged away by the little ghost, and went to Li Laohan's house to give him a dream.

"Then let me ask you, how has your life changed since we Han people came back?" Li Laohan asked, he was very concerned about this issue.

The old village chief said: "Life is getting better and better, and the new emperor has given us farmers a lot of favorable policies, such as we don't have to pay a penny of tax for three years of farming. What kind of industry did the new emperor vigorously develop, and Anxi was a very profitable industry. ”

Li Laohan was very envious when he heard it, he was also a Han Chinese, but he lived a life of ice and fire. This comparison is truly heaven and earth.

The old village chief said again: "My time is running out, brother, do you agree?" ”

Li Laohan immediately replied: "I agreed." ”

"Okay, then please brother." The old village chief disappeared after speaking.

Li Laohan searched around, but disappeared from the old village chief. So he climbed down the big rock and prepared to find his way to the three brothers. He thought about walking east, and had barely gone when he saw a man lying in front of him. He was shocked, and hurriedly walked in and saw a lot of blood.

When I walked in, I saw a corpse, and the clothes worn by the corpse were exactly the same as the old village chief just now. He thought to himself, "Isn't that the corpse of that ghost?" Take me over and take a look. ”

Thinking about it, he crouched down next to the corpse and turned over it. Deng Shi was startled, it was a bloody corpse.

Li Laohan, who was lying on the kang, sat up suddenly, and broke out in a cold sweat.

The old woman beside him was awakened, looked out the window, and it was bright again. She also sat up and asked, "Old man, what's wrong with you?" ”

Li Laohan said: "I had a dream. ”

"Dreaming? What dreams do you have? Is it auspicious or unlucky? The old woman asked in a panic, she heard the ominousness in her wife's tone, so she asked. She still believes in dreams.

"It was a dream given to me by a dead old man." Li Laohan said.

"An old man gave you a dream? What kind of old man is it? The old woman asked.

"He said he was the head of a village south of Qinshan." Li Laohan said.

The old woman felt strange, she knew that once she was entrusted with a dream by a ghost, it meant that the ghost had something wronged, or something unfinished in the world, and asked the person entrusted with the dream to help.

So she asked directly: "Old man, what is he looking for you?" ”

"He asked me to show the way for the three young men, saying that he was sent by the Hua Han Dynasty to find the way, in order to attack the Tarnus." Li Laohan said.

"That's eighty percent true! Is the old man with those four young men? The old woman asked.

"Well, he said he fell from the top of the mountain and died." Li Laohan said.

"Ah, that old man, you have to do this for him, or that old ghost will haunt you for the rest of your life!" The old woman felt a little frightened, and she was a little trembling when she spoke.

Old Man Li sneered and said, "My old Li is half buried, are you still afraid that he will be entangled?" I just thought, if this is true, I should go and lead the way for those three young men. ”

"It's definitely true, there's no fake." The old woman said matter-of-factly. She believed in the prophecies of her dreams.

Li Laohan pondered for a long time and said, "Whether it's true or not, I'm going to go to the mountains today to have a look." If I really meet those three young men and ask them clearly, I will tell them the way I know, so that the army of the Hua Han Dynasty can come over quickly and liberate us. ”

"Well, old man, I'm going to cook for you, and you're ready to go into the mountains when you're full. This time, I'll give you some burnt food to eat on the road. The old woman said, and got up and put on her clothes and went to the ground.

Li Laohan also got dressed and prepared a knife and rope to go up the mountain.

When the old woman baked the cake and finished boiling the porridge, the sky was already dawning.

Li Laohan ate a bite and went out, and before leaving, he didn't forget to tell the old woman and said: "Wife, don't worry, I will definitely come back, you are waiting for me at home!" ”

"Hmm." The old woman nodded, and there was an inexplicable feeling in her heart. "You can go without worry, I will wait for you."

Li Laohan nodded, smiled, turned around and strode towards the tall Qin Mountain.

The old woman watched her husband until Li Laohan disappeared into the thin twilight in the distance.

Li Laohan is familiar with this mountain. He soon found the valley he had dreamed of. He didn't see any rabbits, only a few snakes passing under his feet.

By the time he reached the third of the valley, the sun had already peeked out of the mountains to the east. He found a big rock to rest and drink some water.

He knew that if he wanted to reach the very top of this valley, he would have to do it at least tomorrow at noon. Because the valley is so long. And it's deep. Walking into the depths, there are high mountains on both sides, which makes you feel like you have entered a hole.

However, this is the only way to reach the bottom of the steep peak.

After resting for a while, he continued to walk deeper into the valley.

For Li Shan and the other three brothers, this steep stone-wall-like peak is struggling. They had crawled less than ten feet in a day, and the end of the pinnacle seemed to be far away with no end in sight.

The eldest Li Shan and the third Li He were a little deflated, but the second Li Hai was still full of confidence and did not forget to encourage his two brothers.

"Big brother, second brother, we must not give up, absolutely." He said loudly with a wave of his fist.

At night, the three brothers climbed on the narrow stone peak of the snake to rest, and did not even dare to sleep.
