Chapter 285: The Land of Golden Mountains

The ancient merchants in the road, has been barren for nearly a hundred years, Lin Yuyan all the way is along the traces of the past, Hanshui Zhuji in the ancient merchants on the road to pass the chariot, built a simple straight road, Lin Yuyan and his party is to follow this simple straight road all the way back to Wuguan.

Artificially sharpened bluestone slabs can be seen everywhere on the ancient Shang Yu Road, and a deserted earth and stone house can be seen everywhere on both sides, with broken walls and ruins, which made Lin Yuyan sigh again.

"Huang Lie, do you know why this ancient Shang Yu Dao declined, the old Qin people migrated to Shang Yu sixty years ago, but when they entered Wuguan, they did not take Shang Yu Dao, but took the ancient Qin Road that is now passing, what is the reason for this?"

Huang Lie had heard about this from the older generation, and replied: "The reason seems to be that this ancient merchant is a barren land in the Dao!" ”

"Barrens?" Lin Yuyan turned around, looked at Huang Lie and asked again.

Huang Lie knows everything: "Hanshui Zhuji originally spent manpower and material resources to build such a military road, but it was abandoned in a short period of time, among which there are rumors that this is a poisonous land, the older generation, which is from the Shen people around Wuguan handed down, when the Hanshui Zhuji trained 100,000 soldiers to attack the lynx, it can only be a few months, and even did not fight with the lynx, when he returned, he only looked at twenty or thirty thousand people, the reason is that this ancient merchant is a poisonous place in the road, and the poison is hidden in the soil and water source of the ancient merchant in the road! ”

Huang Lie glanced around, and immediately pointed in the direction of Wuguan and said: "Join the army, you might as well look there, a radius of dozens of miles, there is no grass, Wuguan soldiers and horses come here, often bring their own forage, but even so, the horses will regurgitate badly after a few days here, and even die in serious cases!" ”

"So evil?" Lin Yuyan glanced at it, there were more than 100 scout soldiers around him, all of them riding horses, and it was precisely because of this that Lin Yuyan admonished: "Tell the soldiers to go down, so that the mounts must not eat anything or drink water here!" ”

"Whoa!" All the soldiers answered.

Not long after, Lin Yuyan and his party entered this barren land, and looked around, but they didn't see Lin Yuyan's face with the worry of hearing about "poisonous land" for the first time, and it seemed that there was still some joy in it.

Jing Yi reminded the sentence "join the army", but still did not interrupt the faint joy on Lin Yuyan's face!

Lin Yuyan looked at Jing Yi and suddenly said, "Jing Yi, how do I feel that there is a golden mountain in front of me!" ”

Hearing that His Royal Highness mentioned his real name in front of Huang Lie, Jing Yi didn't remind him of anything, and he also noticed the "Golden Mountain" in Lin Yuyan's mouth!

His Royal Highness has never seen any strong winds and waves, and the amazing throughput of Jiangxia Commercial Bank cannot move His Royal Highness, but now that he is facing a barren land, His Royal Highness has forgotten to conceal his identity in such a situation, it must not be a lie, but Jing Yi and everyone swept around, and they didn't see the golden mountain mentioned by Lin Yuyan!

Huang Lie pretended not to care about this, after all, as he had expected, this soldier did have a deep background, or Huang Lie couldn't hold back his mount, and said: "Joining the army, even if you have the same heart with the war horse under your crotch, try not to let the war horse touch this place, but for some reason, this war horse still licks the ground with its tongue, obviously there is not a single grass in the barren, but I don't know why!" ”

"Good licking!" When Lin Yuyan heard this, he was even more overjoyed, and said to Huang Lie and the other soldiers: "If there is a problem caused by the horses, one will pay ten!" ”

"Ten for one?" This is what made the scout battalion soldiers look at this somewhat "wealthy" Han Yan to join the army.

Jing Yi, Ji Wu and Chun Yuqi also looked at their Royal Highness curiously, they had never been so out of shape, and when they saw a barren land, they were so out of shape.

I only heard Lin Yuyan ask again: "What are the rumors about this?" ”

Immediately, a new soldier of the scout battalion replied to Lin Yuyan: "Back to join the army, a certain hometown is not far from here, and the family is also an old man born as a non-commissioned soldier of the Wuguan guards......

"One step further!" Lin Yuyan said.

But the new pawn continued: "A certain person entered the scout camp, and he ate well every day, and it was much better to be unable to see or fatigue at night than when he stayed in his hometown, so the local method handed down by this villager was not applied!" ”

Another pawn said: "An old man in a certain family also said this, when Wuguan was short of food, although the army did not implement this method, but still acquiesced in this matter to tide over the difficulties, although many people died, but most of them still survived!" ”

In the end, an older scout battalion commander said to Lin Yuyan: "I personally experienced this and joined the army, this is because this barren land can produce salt from time to time!" ”

"Out of the salt?" Huang Lie didn't know about it, so he looked at the old man and said, "Brother Kui, please tell me carefully." ”

Everyone finally understood the reason why Lin Yuyan called this place Jinshan, and the salt of the white flowers was indeed to have a fight with the glittering gold!

This was respected by Huang Lie as "Brother Wai" Shiwu Chang replied: "When a certain was still young, it was about nearly 30 years, Nanyang drought, no grain, Wuguan did not receive a grain of grain from the imperial court, in order to survive, Wuguan killed a lot of war horses, even so, it was not enough, someone just fell the idea to this place, because some places here are hidden some salt!" ”

"But these salts are poisonous salts!" Chief Shiwu continued: "In those days, there was no shortage of people who ate a few more mouthfuls of such salt, and they were poisoned...... Everyone is afraid of the salt here, and they also understand that there is toxicity in this salt! ”

"What if the salt wasn't toxic?" Lin Yuyan suddenly looked at everyone and suddenly asked rhetorically.

"No toxicity?" Everyone muttered, but Huang Lie replied: "If the salt is not toxic, then this will be a blessed land given by God to Great Qin!" ”

However, Jing Yi and the others who were surrounding Lin Yuyan looked at each other a few times, and if they nodded in understanding, His Royal Highness the prince of his own family must not be untargeted, and it is very likely that there is a means to drive away the toxicity of salt here.

So......

Doesn't it mean that these dozens of miles of barren land are really a golden mountain!
