Chapter Seventy-Eight: Poor Mountains and Bad Waters Emerge from the People

The Jade King and the Gourd Immortal woke up one after another, looking at the scene in front of them, a little stunned, not knowing why they had arrived in such a place!

"What the hell is this place?" The Jade King asked.

Niu Pengda said: "Since the two of you are friends of the military advisor, then they are also my friends of Niu Pengda!" ”

After explaining the situation, the Jade King and the gourd immortal saw that there was no way to escape, so they stayed for the time being, just like Mei Xiaohan.

Niu Pengda is the king of the mountain here, and the days are at ease. It's just that there is often a lack of food in the mountains, and it is inevitable that they will occasionally go to rob a road and kill someone, and they will be infected with lawsuits in their hands, so they dare not go down the mountain.

After a wash, it was refreshing and enjoyed the cool breeze blowing from the valley. The gourd immortals feel that this kind of life is very comfortable!

Mei Xiaohan couldn't be happy, his Yangcheng army was still trapped in Fengcheng at the moment, and his life and death were unknown. After all, it is a team formed by itself, and it is its own child, so where is it willing to throw it away like this.

The Jade King is also very unhappy, for him, he could have been a carefree Fengcheng prince, but now everything has changed.

"If you open the bow and don't turn back, no one can go back"

The gourd immortal's gourd was also destroyed, and it really became a broken gourd.

Fortunately, you don't have to worry about eating and drinking in the mountains, and most importantly, you have a woman to take care of you.

Mei Xiaohan pinched her fingers and counted, she was already seventeen years old, and most of the ancients had already married at this time.

The girls on the mountain ran to him if they had nothing to do, and some of them wanted to stay for the night, but they were all driven away by him.

Nanshan is by no means a place to stay for a long time, but now it is difficult for the cattle shed to ride a tiger, and the murders and lawsuits committed in his hands will be wanted by the government once he goes down the mountain.

Niu Pengda said: "After autumn, the heavy snow will cover the mountains, and our food will be cut off!" ”

"Can't you really go down the mountain?"

Niu Pengda said: "It's not that I can't go down the mountain, there are many passages down the mountain, but I'm used to staying on the mountain, and over time, I don't want to go down the mountain." ”

"In that case, why not go down the mountain and seek development?"

"The government has offered a reward of 500 taels of silver, and I want my head!"

Mei Xiaohan smiled and said, "I didn't expect it... Your head is worth a lot! ”

Niu Pengda said: "So one day, the brothers on the mountain can't live, so I will cut off my head!" ”

"I don't think it's that bad!"

"The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge!"

Niu Pengda said: "I'm a rough man!" I only know how to fight, kill, and kill, and I hope for the guidance of the military division! ”

Mei Xiaohan said: "Where can I be considered a military advisor!" I can't help myself... Now tied to the same boat with you, there is a problem, of course to solve it together! ”

There is a city behind Nanshan Castle, which is small in size but has a large population, at least within a radius of 500 miles.

The name of this city is Splendid City, and it does not belong to any sphere of influence.

"Why didn't the owner of the cow village think about going to Splendid City?"

"That place is poor! I heard that dolls are running around the streets with bare butts! It's better to stay in the mountains! ”

"But the women there are beautiful!"

"Poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people!"

Listening to Niu Pengda say this, Mei Xiaohan is very interested in Splendid City, even Niu Pengda dislikes this place, it seems that this place is indeed poor!

"I'd love to check it out!"

Niu Pengda refused: "You can't go!" In case you run away, where will I find you! ”

Mei Xiaohan said: "I can't run, my friends are all in your hands, I won't leave them!" ”

When the Jade King and the gourd immortal heard that Mei Xiaohan was going down the mountain, they were a little excited, and at this time their humanity was exposed.

"You're coming back! Our lives are still in your hands! ”

Mei Xiaohan looked at the Jade King and smiled: "It's really hard for you to let you, the king page, say this!" ”

"It's still too dangerous to go down the mountain, so let's think about it!"

Mei Xiaohan said: "I am born hard, I won't die so easily!" ”

"Let's send two men with you! In case of any danger, it is good to take care of it! ”

Mei Xiaohan refused all Niu Pengda's requests and went down the mountain alone, in his opinion, being alone is the safest.

The gourd immortal is so unreliable, which makes Mei Xiaohan realize that everything needs to be done by herself.

The road down the mountain was not easy, but Mei Xiaohan persevered.

The northern slope of Namsan is almost an inclined plane, and if you can't find the right path, you'll roll down if you're not careful!

Although Niu Pengda promised to let Mei Xiaohan go down the mountain, he still secretly sent someone to follow Mei Xiaohan and monitor his every move.

Although the name of Splendid City is Splendid, it is not prosperous at all, nor does it have any splendid atmosphere.

The pedestrians on the road are all earth-colored and malnourished.

The buildings on both sides of the road are also very dilapidated, and occasionally one or two passers-by also come and go in a hurry.

Such a city has no life.

The gates of the splendid city were wide open, and there was no guard. There is freedom to come and go, and there is no inventory.

Such a city has no sense of existence at all.

"It's no wonder that Niu Pengda has no feelings for such a city, it's not unreasonable!"

"Look! Look! ”

"There's a stranger passing by!"

Everyone looked at Mei Xiaohan as if they had discovered a monster, which made him a little creepy.

"Guys, guys, am I that ugly?"

An old woman walked up to Mei Xiaohan tremblingly on crutches and said, "Young man! Our place is poor! ”

"You shouldn't be here!"

"We are so poor here that even the government doesn't care about our life or death!"

Mei Xiaohan said: "Aren't there no bandits coming here?" ”

"Bandits?"

"Just kidding!"

"Haven't you heard the saying that the poor mountain is evil?"

Mei Xiaohan said: "This place is so poor, why is it called Splendid City?" ”

The old woman said, "It's not because of the war! ”

Mei Xiaohan said: "The Great Song Dynasty has been established for almost seventy years, how can there be wars?" ”

"At a glance, you know that you are a rich boy who does not eat the fireworks of the world, and you don't know the suffering of the world!"

Most of the people were full of vegetables, and there was no ruddy light.

Mei Xiaohan said, "What do you usually eat?" ”

"Look at what you said, if you don't eat rotten leaves, what else can you eat?"

When the old woman said this, she was smiling, and a torn turban tightly wrapped her face.

Mei Xiaohan couldn't bear to ask them why they were so happy, and her heart was very complicated.

"What else to eat besides rotten leaves?"

A child gave a thumbs up and said, "My father gave me a big green worm, and after frying it, it was crunchy!" ”

"It's just my father... Starved to death in famine! ”

"Later, I followed my grandfather, and then my grandfather also died!"

"Later... I followed my grandmother..."

"Don't say it... And then your grandmother died, right? ”

The child looked at Mei Xiaohan with an innocent face and said, "How do you know?" ”

Mei Xiaohan said: "I guess! ”

The child looked at Mei Xiaohan and said, "You seem to be a little unhappy, are you a little happier or unhappy now?" ”

Mei Xiaohan didn't know how to answer for a while, and said, "Do you want me to be happier or unhappy?" ”

The child said, "I don't know, anyway, I'm a little unhappy and a little happy..."

These people were not indignant because of the poor conditions. I was not depressed because of the poor conditions.

Mei Xiaohan could see the calmness on their faces, and the obedience in their words and deeds.

The so-called poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people, and it is not manifested in them.
