Chapter 35: Shuangzui Mountain

It was the first time Su Ren had heard such words, and the people he met were either outsiders or too young, so he naturally didn't know too much about the situation in Wenshui County. People like Hou Jian have been in warm water for generations and know warm water well. It's just that Su Ren didn't expect that this warm water would hide a dragon and a crouching tiger, and there was such a reason.

"With Su Xianzuo's cleverness, I naturally understand who I am talking about, I just reminded Su Xianzuo that it is not that the county and our lieutenant are unwilling to mix, but that they can't."

"Why?"

"I'm still scared! The virtuous ancestor side branch in Wenshui is already admired by everyone, even in Chang'an, there are many people admired, even the first emperor is full of praise for it, it can be said that he and his descendants were exiled here, in this high mountain emperor far away to do something, the court will not be held accountable in the face of the old gentleman, but we are different, for the imperial court, we are outsiders, a bad is the great crime of exterminating the nine clans, no one can afford such a punishment. ”

"Since you know that you can't bear it, why bother saying these words? You don't dare to do anything, what can I do? ”

Hou Si showed a little smile on his rare face, pushed his plate of meat forward, and put it in the place where Su Ren could easily reach it: "What I said is also an assumption, if there is an accident, the Nine Clans will be destroyed, of course, if there is no accident, then it is another matter." ”

"To put it bluntly, don't you just want me to fight with Liu Wen after sparing such a big circle? Now that he has torn his face with Liu Wen, it is not impossible to fight. ”

"So good! Su Xianzuo rest assured, my county lieutenant must be the biggest help of the county Zuo. ”

"Really?" Su Ren smiled contemptuously, Hou Jian almost killed himself a few months ago, and now he actually claimed to be his biggest help, no matter how this sounds, it sounds like a lie.

Hou Si also knew that Su Ren didn't believe it, and said: "At present, in this Wenshui County, Su County Zuo can believe it, and the only one who has the strength is my county lieutenant, so Su County Zuo has no other choice but to believe my words, isn't Su County Zuo here today for this matter?" ”

"I don't even believe in myself, how can I trust you? If that time really comes, and the county lieutenant is the same as today, then I will not be miserable. ”

"Su Xianzuo said this, with Su Xianzuo's cleverness, how miserable can it be? Can you still be miserable when you came to Wenshui County? ”

"Uh......!"

Su Ren was speechless for a moment. As the saying goes, barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes, and he came to the Han Dynasty alone, and being alone is already miserable, even if he has nothing in the end, what can he do? It's a big deal to start all over again in a different place, Su Ren doesn't believe that the Han Dynasty has any detection methods that can be tracked for thousands of miles, and it is very easy to hide incognito.

Hou Si looked at Su Ren: "This matter can be considered by the county Zuo, and it is not a matter of time and a half to fight Liu Wen, so it has to be considered in the long run." ”

When Hou Si left, Su Ren was still in a daze. He was thinking about Hou Si, and the reason why he had not been able to make up his mind was that he still looked at the current world from the perspective of the future, and had not yet risen from the feeling of an ant to the vision of overlooking the world. If nothing else, these thousands of years of knowledge are enough to put him above everyone. It's like an adult watching a child play at home, and that kind of superiority and contempt from the heart has always been deeply hidden in Su Ren's heart.

I didn't sleep all night, and Su Ren left the barracks early the next morning, and Su Ren returned to Laojunguan before noon. Leng Jun, Huo Laosi and others also didn't sleep all night, and when they saw Su Ren coming back, Hawking immediately came out of the door and greeted Su Ren with a smile.

When Su Ren entered the house and had not yet sat down, Huo Laosi couldn't wait to ask, "Brother Ren, how is it?" Did the county magistrate and the county lieutenant promise to help us? ”

Su Ren didn't speak, grabbed the teapot and put it in his mouth and kept pouring water. The anxious crowd scratched their ears and cheeks, but they didn't dare to snatch Su Ren's teapot. Finally waiting for Su Ren to put down the teapot and not waiting for others to speak, Su Ren said to Leng Yue: "I'm hungry, get something to eat!" ”

"Yes, yes, eat first, and then talk when you're full!" Huo Laosi is a little older, so he naturally knows that this kind of thing is useless in a hurry.

After eating, Su Ren returned to the house without saying a word under the eager eyes of everyone. Leng Jun's lungs were about to explode, and he couldn't wait to go up and slap Su Ren twice, he hated this kind of person who was in a hurry, but the one in charge didn't say anything, which made him feel like he didn't catch or catch in his heart.

Huo Laosi hurriedly pulled Leng Jun: "Forget it, forget it, Brother Ren naturally has his own plans if he doesn't say it, let's just wait, and when it's time to say it, we will naturally say it." ”

For a whole day and a night, Su Ren stayed in his room, and Hawking stood straight outside the door holding his shuttle dart, and no one was allowed to approach, even if he came coldly. Although he shouted Master with a smile on his face, he was not allowed to enter. This kid is now obsessed, since he followed Su Ren to a brine spring and saw Su Ren's performance in a group of mountain bandits, Hawking decided that he would follow this big brother in his life, and he would definitely not suffer.

The next morning, when Huo Laosi got up to clean the courtyard, he suddenly found that Su Ren's door was open, and when he looked inside, the person was gone. Not only is Su Ren gone, but even his own son is gone.

Huo Laosi was in a hurry, shouted and shouted everyone, and asked, no one knows where these two people went? I searched for a long time in front of the house and behind the house, but I didn't see a single shadow. The next one of them panicked.

Huo Qian sat on the ground and began to cry: "Son! ”

Huo Laosi was upset by the roar and yelled: "What are you crying about! Can Brother Ren still run away? ”

Looking at Su Ren's room, Leng Jun saw Su Ren's weird-looking backpack quietly placed in the corner, frowning: "Of course he didn't run, everything is there, maybe he went out, maybe he went to the county seat again, let's wait!" ”

Although no one thought that Su Ren had run away, he still felt that something was wrong in his heart when he left without saying hello. Since Su Ren came to this Laojunguan, it has only been half a year. Speaking of not having anything to do with them, now that Liu Wenming is blatantly targeting them, even if Su Ren leaves, it is not impossible.

Leng Yue looked depressed, gently pulled the futon scattered on the bed and folded it neatly, holding back tears to prevent them from flowing. As soon as he lowered his head, he found a bamboo slip on the top of the bed, and grabbed it: "Senior brother, this is the letter left by Brother Su." ”

A few people suddenly came to their senses and leaned their heads together. Su Ren's handwriting is the same as that of ghost paintings, and the entire Laojun Concept can only be understood by Leng Yue alone. In fact, Su Ren wrote simplified characters, which are very different from seal characters. It's just that Leng Yue thought it was funny when she saw it, and she studied with Su Ren for a while. There are only nine words on that bamboo slip, don't read it when you come back in a few days!

Huo Laosi let out a sigh of relief and looked at his wife coldly: "What's the matter?" Brother Ren will never leave us to run away by ourselves, stay in peace, your son will be fine with Brother Ren. ”

After going out in the middle of the night, Su Ren and Hawking walked all the way south. According to Hawking, Shuangzui Mountain is in the south of Wenshui County, where it is the only road from Wenshui to Nanban, although the imperial court explicitly forbade not to exchange markets with Nanban, but it is not surprising that businessmen took risks for the sake of huge profits. The hides, herbs, various ores and precious timber of the Southern Barbarians are absolutely sought-after in the Central Plains. The grain, linen, and salt of the Central Plains are even more expensive than gold in Nanban, and they must be full of money when they come and go. With such profits, even if you die, it's worth breaking through.

Shuangzui Mountain is just stuck in the throat of this trade route, and if you want to go around, you can't get around. Wu Bald occupied a favorable terrain and robbed merchants, and his life was not bad. However, the number of Wu Bald's subordinates was too small, and the merchants learned well after several tosses, and every time they set off, they had to gather enough hundreds of people to act collectively, so that it was difficult for Wu Bald to start. In addition, the blockade orders of the imperial court have become stricter and stricter in recent years, and there are fewer and fewer people who take this trade route, so these people in Shuangzui Mountain are naturally not very happy.

Along the way, it is really quite far, and it is roughly estimated that it will be at least fifty miles. It was already the sun in the west, and only then did I faintly see the shadow of Shuangzui Mountain.

Hawking, who was walking in front, carried his shuttle dart and pointed to the two peaks in front of him, one high and one low: "Big brother, it's here!" The front is it! ”

Su Ren has almost reached the limit, he has never walked such a long way since he was a child, his legs don't seem to be his own, he nodded while panting, and he was so tired that he couldn't even speak.

Before dark, he finally came to the foot of Shuangzui Mountain, Su Ren sat on the ground, picked up his water bottle and poured a few sips: "Shuangzui Mountain, Shuangzui Mountain, it's not like it at all." ”

Hawking nodded: "It's just that I didn't see a mouth, and I didn't know that the name was given by that idiot." ”

A mountain road winds along the mountain range and passes between two peaks. These two peaks are one high and one short, the high one is not too high, only about 100 zhang, and the short one is only a few tens of zhang. The mountain is quite steep, and the slope is very steep and overgrown with trees, so it is difficult to walk alone. Not to mention the soldiers in armor and weapons, who are condescending to take advantage of this battle.

"Whew......"

At the sound of a whistle, seven or eight big men suddenly poured out of the woods on both sides, all of them carrying swords and sticks, and homemade wooden bows. They were all in tatters, and one of the guys' clothes didn't even cover the key parts, allowing the thing to wander outside.

Hawking got up with a grunt, holding his shuttle dart in front of Su Ren, staring at these seven or eight people with wide eyes. Su Ren got up slowly and looked at the people in front of him, who were completely different from the robbers he imagined, and looked more like farmers. I didn't even have the opening sentence that I drove this road and planted this tree, and those guys just laughed when they looked at them.

One of the bearded men looked at Su Ren and Hawking with a smile: "It's been so long, and finally someone who is not afraid of death has come over, and I don't know how many dry goods I can get?" ”

The other shook his head: "These are two children, and I guess there is nothing, so let's kill them." ”
