Part 6 (34)



"It's okay, it's almost there anyway, as long as you arrive before dark, it's fine, don't worry, there is a ladder on this cliff, you really have to climb it by hand, I don't have the courage and strength yet, I fell to death halfway early!" The old man led the six of them to the other side of the cliff, and then the six of them saw the thick rattan twisted ladder. This ^ chapter was updated by Wan Shubar

A few people rested for a while and set off again, the old man began to climb the ladder first, the ladder made of rattan was wobbly, it looked very unsafe, the old man's movements were very light, and he climbed up step by step, and when the old man climbed into the air, there was already work like those high altitudes.

Looking down, seeing that Bai Yunqi and the others hadn't moved yet, he couldn't help shouting, "What's wrong?" This ladder can bear weight, come up! It's okay! ”

As soon as the old man said this, Huzi had already climbed up first, Bai Yunqi glanced at Dongshan, and Dongshan was looking at the old man in mid-air with some uneasy eyes, and couldn't help laughing: "Dongshan, in my opinion, why don't you let them send you back first?" Huzi and I won't have anything to do here. ”

The remaining three people glanced at Xie Dongshan, and smiled in unison, Xie Dongshan was really not good, he didn't dare to be strong, so he had to say: "That's fine, it's just that it's safe......"

Before he finished speaking, Bai Yunqi nodded to the other three, inserted the golden folding fan into his waist, and jumped upward, rising six or seven meters to see a slightly protruding stone with his hand, and his feet borrowed his strength again, and continued to run upward, Xie Dongshan saw this, and he didn't say anything anymore, Bai Yunqi had already taken out his strength to tell Xie Dongshan that it was useless to have a few more people. Shaking his head, he and the three of them went back the way they came.

Bai Yunqi borrowed seven or eight times in the air, and he had already surpassed the tiger and the old man who climbed the ladder, and took the lead in standing on the cliff, clapping his palms, then patting off the dust on his body, and then taking off the folding fan from his waist, before looking into the distance again.

Climb high and look into the distance, the scenery is beautiful. In the distance, the fields were a golden color. The nearby mountains also clearly show their silhouettes in front of Bai Yunqi's eyes.

"Little brother is so handsome. It's really impressive! "The old man saw Bai Yunqi's light work. Praise from the bottom of my heart.

"Where! By the way, old man, that place is so special, has the old man ever been there? It seems dangerous. When the old man came up, Bai Yunqi pointed to a very special mountain and asked.

That's between two peaks. A narrow mountain stream connecting the two peaks, unlike any other place, was originally flat between the two peaks, but the stream was like a bridge over the mountainside of the two peaks, like a natural enclosure wall, dividing the land in two.

The old man looked at it and said, "I haven't been to that place yet." However, there are many hunters who have been there, that place is very dangerous, and the hunters with little experience do not dare to go, rich in a rare sable, so it is called the mink bridge, like a bridge, but not many people dare to walk over this bridge, most of them only haunt the mountains on both sides, or go around a long way from below, because it is too steep, some hunters tried to walk from the bridge before, and many of them slipped down and died. ”

Bai Yunqi looked at this natural scene, and had a desire to draw this scene in his heart, and couldn't help sighing: "I really want to paint this scenery, but unfortunately there is no paper and pen here." ”

Huzi also climbed up at this time, admired it and then went on the road with the old man, in the evening, the sky slowly darkened, but Bai Yunqi had also arrived in the mountain village, the old man was very enthusiastic to bring the two to his home, from the old man's mouth to learn that the old man's name was Wu Hua, and there was a son Wu Fa, daughter-in-law Pan Cuihua.

Because the night had slowly fallen, there was no inn in this small mountain village, and of course there was no tent or anything, so he stayed in Wu Laohan's house first.

"Come, the two eldest brothers have a cup of tea, and we'll have dinner later!" Pan Cuihua is a woman in her twenties, who grew up in the mountains, her skin is a little dark, she is not slim but not fat, in other words, she was born healthy and does things neatly.

"Sister-in-law Wu, there are a few side dishes here, we haven't finished eating them before, can you take them down and heat them up!" Huzi handed over the food box in his hand, and Pan Cuihua took it and went to the kitchen.

Wu Laohan walked over after putting down the dishes, and said with a hearty smile: "I'm sorry, the people in the mountains, there is nothing to greet the two, but I have to wronged the two little brothers, after eating later, I will ask Cuihua to clean up the room for the two." ”

"Uncle is serious, it's rare for people in the mountains to have a life like yours." Bai Yunqi laughed.

The old man took out two sections of sugarcane from the room, handed them to Bai Yunqi and Huzi and said, "Come and eat!" My own family farms, these few years are fine, there is no war outside, everyone's life is slowly getting better, of course, and the city is not comparable, in the past few years we even had a full meal is difficult to take care of, this world, is gradually getting better! ”

Bai Yunqi smiled, his heart was peaceful at this time, he took a bite of sugar cane, and said while eating: "By the way, uncle, why don't you see your son?" ”

"He, he and a few colleagues went into the mountains to hunt, and he won't come back for these two days, where is the fire to barbecue at this time, by the way, the place you said, stay and finish eating, I will take you to the village chief to ask, the village chief is almost seventy years old this year, many people in the village know each other, and there are many places where people have been to a wide range, maybe they will know your place."

"Oh, two big brothers, this ...... ......As she was saying this, Pan Cuihua walked over from the kitchen with two plates of dishes in the Baiyun food box, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "How did you get this dish?" I won't get it, I don't dare to spoil this dish! ”

"It's okay, just go back to the pot and heat it up, or mix it together, we don't care, just eat it!" Bai Yunqi smiled embarrassedly, originally this was just a day of eating, and Huzi's burden also had dry food, but these dishes from the palace were carefully crafted, and the materials were all kinds of from all over the country, which made this Cuihua embarrassed.

Ate something hastily, the night in the mountains had already fallen, Wu Laohan and Cuihua cleaned up the dinner table. Clean up the room, Bai Yunqi and Huzi walked out of the door, a small courtyard that everyone in the mountains would have, and the night was very quiet.

There are not many people in the small mountain village, all the way over, it is estimated that there are only dozens of families with two or three hundred people, living simply, monotonous days, but Baiyunqi's heart is very quiet. There is not a trace of antipathy to this. Only the pus-filled moonlight shone through the thick clouds in the sky.

"Huzi. You say to live a lifetime in such a mountain. Isn't it pretty good? ”

Bai Yunqi asked.

"Well! Huzi thinks that it is really good to live for a day or two once in a while, but if you want to live a lifetime, I am afraid that you will not get used to anything after a long time, Seventh brother, what do you say? "When there is no one in the tiger. It is still called Baiyunqi as before.

Bai Yun shook off the folding fan and shook it lightly, walked a few steps leisurely, felt the atmosphere of returning to the surrounding area, and said, "Yes! It is said that the pastoral life is a pastoral life, but the pastoral life has been going on for a long time, and it is really upset to worry about life every day, but. If you don't have to worry about life, it's good to live a leisurely and comfortable pastoral life, when I was still Bai Qi before, I didn't lack money, I didn't care about things, I didn't worry, in fact, that kind of day was barely a pastoral life, but I didn't farm, just paint! ”

Huzi didn't speak, in fact, he didn't know what to say, he just felt the atmosphere of the mountain with Bai Yunqi, and Bai Yunqi continued to ask: "You say, why did he ask me to come to this mountain to meet?" ”

"This Huzi doesn't understand, he just has an idea, and Huzi has always wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask." Huzi said.

"Ask!"

"Haven't you ever doubted this person's intentions, Brother Seven? Indeed, according to what Brother Qi said, a person who has a large amount of gold and silver in his hands is worth noting, but in the final analysis, he is just a businessman, and he dares to play a game with Brother Qi, and, as far as Huzi is concerned, Brother Qi should at least send us here to explore first, and then find someone else, so he came to inquire in person so directly, in case he has ulterior motives or something, isn't it very dangerous? Huzi wondered.

Bai Yunqi smiled slightly, and shook the folding fan lightly out of season: "Your question is very good, he is indeed just a businessman, I can directly seize the Deheng Money Village and return it to the imperial court to operate, and I can always find him, but it is too much work, and this is not what I want, a family that can operate his business without borders for more than a hundred years will definitely not be settled by me just that simple, so I don't take that method." ”

Walking up two steps, Bai Yunqi continued: "This person's posture is indeed a little higher, thinking of my status as the king of a country, he actually dares to put up a shelf in front of me to sell mysteries, just this alone, I have to admire his boldness, of course, I am sure that there must be something else behind him, since I am curious about this person, just like when I went to ask Mr. Xie and Mr. Kong, I must show my sincerity." I'm not a reckless soldier, my purpose is just to meet him, and peacefully deal with the problem of monopolizing important industries by the imperial court, as long as I can achieve this, it's okay for me to lower my figure, besides, in addition to the public, when will you see me like a king of a country? If there was really an emperor like me before, then I really have to congratulate him, he was already ridden on his head to pee and rebel! ”

Huzi wanted to laugh, but he didn't laugh, and then Wu Laohan finally cleaned up the table and came out, "Okay, two little brothers, I'll take my little brother to meet our village chief." ”

"Thank you so much, uncle!"

Three people go out, the people in the mountains, the houses are built according to the mountain, often several families live together, and then a few families are far apart, and they walk for nearly half an hour before they arrive at a slightly more spacious place.

The village chief's house was next to the ancestral hall in the village, and as soon as he entered the door, Wu Laohan shouted: "Lao Wang, Lao Wang!" Xiaoya, where is your grandfather? ”

Walking in the door, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl was cleaning up the dinner table, and when she saw Wu Laohan, she said: "Uncle Wu, my grandfather is playing chess with my eldest brother in the back!" ”

"This is the village chief's little grandson, Queen Xiaoya, this is Qi Bai, Hu Zhao! Let's go, follow me to the back to find them! Wu Laohan casually introduced, Wang Xiaoya smiled slightly, and then ignored it, and Wu Laohan took Bai Yunqi and Zhao Hu, who were alias Qi Bai and Hu Zhao, through the house and walked to the backyard.

"Lao Wang!" As soon as Wu Laohan went out the back door, he saw his grandfather and grandson playing chess with oil lamps lit by the window, a gray-haired septuagenarian and a young man in his twenties playing chess on a stone table.

"Hey, hey! Grandpa, no! Don't think about it! The young man said with a smug face, and turned his head to see Wu Laohan shouting: "Uncle Wu." ”

The young man didn't pay much attention when he saw Bai Yunqi and Zhao Hu, but continued to look at the old man opposite him and said, "How about it, you still have to think about it!" ”

"Don't make any noise, I don't believe your grandfather, look at your grandfather, I'll save this game of chess!" The old man stared at the chessboard without raising his head, and when Wu Laohan saw this, he said to Bai Yunqi and Zhao Hu embarrassedly: "This village chief, even if there is a fire in chess, you will finish playing, two little brothers, wait a minute!" ”

"It's okay!" Bai Yunqi smiled faintly.

The old man kept staring at the chessboard, as if he didn't know the arrival of Bai Yunqi and Zhao Hu, and lifted his car on the chessboard, and the young man hurriedly said: "Don't move, if the car doesn't guard your general, I won't be polite!" ”

The old man hurriedly put the car down and lifted the horse from the side, and the young man immediately said: "This dare to move, give me a cart to eat, I won't mind!" ”

The old man seemed to be tired of listening, and pushed the chess away and said: "Hmph, if the wings are hard, you will bully grandpa, if you don't play, you won't let a cannon, you used to let you when you were a child, grandpa also let you half of it!" Hum! ”

The young man shrugged helplessly and said, "If you don't go down, you won't go down, hehe, I'll go to my father's to play with the little third son!" ”

After the young man finished speaking, he ran away first, and at this time the old man saw Wu Laohan, and then asked, "Wu boy, what's the matter?" Do you want to fight Uncle Wang? Hehe, there's finally one that's enough for me to bully! ”

"you, what uncle, dead old king, by the way, let me introduce you first, this is Qi Bai, this is Hu Zhao, I just went up the mountain today, I have something to ask you! This is our village chief Wang Shoucheng! ”

Wu Laohan said.

Village Elder Wang glanced at Qi Bai and Hu Zhao, frowned slightly, and nodded to each other with the two before saying, "Oh! You! It's okay to bring people to the village, and the last time I was eaten for nothing, I almost forgot about the ruins of your family's green flowers! ”

Bai Yunqi and the two couldn't help but be stunned, he didn't know about this matter, his eyes glanced at Wu Laohan, secretly surprised, but Wu Laohan waved his hand and said, "Don't worry!" Last time, I didn't know anyone, but this time I saw clearly, these two are good people. ”

"Hmph, I say that every time. Say, what is the matter with you coming up into the mountain? Village Elder Wang asked.

"I would like to ask the village chief, do you know that there is a place called the Wyvern Spine in this Flying Dragon Mountain?"

Hearing this name, a hint of color flashed in the village chief's eyes, and he said casually: "No, no, there is no place!" "The sixth part of the text
