Gong Panlong agreed to Zhaoyun's request and re-took up the post of military marquis, which made Du Cheng extremely happy, but it made Zhaoyun's head hurt a little.

In order to satisfy this old guy, he not only contributed addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, but also the Pythagorean theorem, Fibonacci sequence, Qin Jiushao's formula, and so on. This old guy is thick-skinned, and he doesn't even refuse to come with pi, which surprises Zhaoyun.

I'm afraid that it won't be long before all he can hand over to this old guy is advanced calculus.

It was only now that Zhaoyun knew that Gong Panlong was Gong Changqiu's nephew, that is, the grandson of his younger brother, and the blood relationship was not ordinarily close. Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Gong Panlong helped out.

When the ministers saw that Gong Lao was being co-opted by Zhaoyun, they were shocked, and they didn't know what kind of demonic method this young man used; However, with Gong Panlong in charge, these guys didn't dare to slander when Zhaoyun was out.

……

"Look, there's an honor guard in the palace!"

As an old voice fell, Jia Mengcheng instantly quieted down, and hundreds of eyes looked towards the palace gate, only to see dozens of people who took the lead and walked out of the palace gate, and a general in front rushed out of the street, shouting: "Get out of the way!" Lord Shangqing is out of the city! ”

"Lord Shangqing?"

"This ...... When did our country come? ”

“…… Hehe, old fellow, who do you say this Lord Shangqing could be? ”

"Who else could it be? Apart from Old Man Gong Panlong, who else in this palace is more suitable for this position? ”

Pedestrians whispered to each other, slowly giving way to a road. In a short time, the honor guard joined the main road and walked towards the north gate; And Zhaoyun was riding the horse out of the light red palace gate, after a few days of careful feeding, the horse's coat color gradually became dark black, the coat color was shiny, the horse's hooves were strong, and the walking style was majestic, which was eye-catching.

"The man...... Wearing a red dress, it can't be Lord Shangqing, right? ”

"This ...... How old is this kid? ”

There is more shock in the hearts of pedestrians than in awe. How can it be? How could a teenager let Hou Hou Li override public opinion and worship as the secretary?

A series of scorching eyes approached, Zhaoyun ignored it, held his head high, sat straight on the horse, as if looking at the clouds in the sky, and seemed to look at the mountains in the distance, but he didn't look at the people nearby.

Although the four invincible brothers walked at the end, their waists were straight, they were wearing brand new armor, and their faces were almost happy.

They didn't expect that one day, they would be able to show off in such a position!

Just now, Du Cheng also gave the four of them official positions, what is it called...... Hundred miles of tiger Benwei? Sounds lofty!

Under the burning gaze of the people in Jiameng City, the guard of honor slowly walked out of the city gate. At this moment, a beggard and tattered beggar walked into the south gate, and happened to see Zhaoyun's departure.

Looking at the scenery, Du Hongchuan burst into tears, he was in such a situation when he entered and left the city, how can he ......

"Alas!"

A sad sigh finally exhausted all the sorrows in his heart. If there was no obstacle from that kid in Tho, he would not have been displaced and came to this small country!

"Wait, old fellow!" Du Hongchuan said gloomily, "When I rise again, it will be the time when you will be destroyed!" ”

……

Zhaoyun and his entourage went out of Jiameng City, and they would arrive at the Qipan Pass twenty miles ahead, and they would arrive at Nanzheng through Ningqiang, and they would arrive at Meixian County by going through Nanzheng and going out of the valley through Nanzheng, and they would arrive at the Meixian area, which was not far from Xianyang.

Out of the chessboard pass, the road was narrow, not to mention the honor guard, and even Zhaoyun had to dismount and walk. The mountain road is dangerous, the surrounding peaks are full of soil, the mountains and forests on both sides are towering, and there is no ambush, there is a murderous aura rushing to the face; This mountain forest in Shu is a huge fortress!

Wu Jia walked in front of him to lead the way, although there is only one mountain road, but it will not take long to reach a cliff, if there is no acquaintance to lead the way, I am afraid that he will become a ghost under the cliff.

Sure enough, after walking for about 20 miles, there was a cliff hanging in the air, and after walking through a towering rock formation, there was only a narrow mountain road that was more than a meter wide. Looking down at the body, thousands of cliffs, only to see the clouds and mist, bottomless, if it falls, I am afraid that before it reaches the ground, it has been scared to death.

"This is the 'Thousand Hammer Road', people outside Qinchuan want to enter Shu, if they don't know geography, they will pass through here." Wu Jia introduced, but his body also trembled, and it was obvious that he was also scared when he stood on this narrow road.

"Mom, boss, if this place falls, it will definitely be shattered!" Boundless hugged Wuliang in fear, and Wuliang seemed to want to push him away, but looking at this terrifying cliff, he still gave up, lest the harmful brother fall off the cliff.

Wushuang is even worse, he is already afraid of heights, and he can only lie on the ground and move forward like a centipede when he stands in this place.

"If you want to enter Shu, is there any other place?" Zhaoyun asked.

Wu Jia pointed to the opposite side of the mountain, only to see that a thousand feet away, there was a cliff, like Pangu an axe chopped down: "There is a path on the opposite side of the mountain, which is convenient for the army to move forward, but if you don't know the geography of Shuzhong, you won't be able to find it!" ”

Zhaoyun nodded, and among the group, he seemed to be the most calm: "How long will it take to get from here to Nanzheng?" ”

"Nearly three hundred miles, there is a Huangba post on this thousand hammer road, fast horses, three or four days to arrive."

Huangba Station was not a wasteland?

Zhaoyun miscalculated this time, he thought that Shuzhong and Guanzhong had no connection, but this Huangba Station was the hub between the two, and it already existed.

Out of the Huangba Station, the six people quickly whipped their horses and galloped in the mountain and forest paths.

Four days passed, and everyone arrived at Nanzheng.

More than 2,000 years ago, Hanzhong did not have the prosperity it has today, and it did not become the hub of Shuzhong because of Liu Bang's favor. However, the strategic meaning of this place is self-evident, the north leads to Qinchuan, the south goes to Shuzhong, the west goes to Qiangyuan, and the east carries Jingchu, which has been fought for by various countries for hundreds of years, and there has never been a day of stability.

However, now there is no dispute between Qin and Chu, and Nanzheng is also open to the Shu people. Zhaoyun showed the talisman and the soldiers given by Tho Guo, and as soon as the soldiers were suffocated, they respectfully let him go.

"There are such young messengers in these years!" That Chu Bing said with emotion, "Seeing that he is only fifteen or sixteen years old, can there be such a capable person in Shu, and I don't know if my Great Chu can have such a great talent?" ”

"Why not?" The soldiers on the side shouted dissatisfiedly, "Rest the morale of others!" I heard people in Yingdu say that there is a young talent in Leping, who is only fourteen or fifteen years old now, but he can write poems and point out the country, which is quite appreciated by the king! When they reach adulthood, they will inevitably be reused! ”

The soldiers on the side were surprised: "Do I still have such talents in Chu State?" What's your name? ”

"It seems to be called Qu Ping?"

……

Zhaoyun had already entered the city, and he didn't know that the soldiers had compared themselves with the patriotic poet Qu Yuan just now; If he knew, he would definitely blush, how could he be so virtuous that he would argue with Qu Zi?

"Dozens of miles north of Nanzheng, it is the entrance of the Baoshan Valley, also known as the mouth of the Baogu Valley;" Wu Jia explained to Zhaoyun on the road, "After entering the Baogu Pass, you can go straight to the mouth of the valley for more than 500 miles, and you can reach Xianyang to the east after leaving the mouth of the valley." ”

"Five hundred miles?" Not only Zhaoyun, but even the invincible four brothers behind him were taken aback, just now they didn't have five hundred miles from Jiameng to Nanzheng, and this one Baoxian Valley was five hundred miles?

Wu Jia smiled bitterly: "This is only a conservative estimate, if there is a heavy rain and torrent, the valley is not passable, we still have to climb the mountain to pass; Moreover, there is the Qinling Mountains in the north across the east and west on the way, and you need to make a detour, and it will be more than five hundred miles by then! ”

Zhaoyun was dizzy when he heard this, but Wuliang hurriedly said: "Since the road is dangerous, then we will rest in Nanzheng for a day now, and then reorganize and set off tomorrow!" ”

"After walking all the way, I finally said something human."

Zhaoyun was not averse to this suggestion, but he really didn't dare to stay here for long; Last time I slept in Mianzhu for one night, I had an accident, and last time I was in Jiameng, I became Shangqing inexplicably, who knows what will happen to Nanzheng in Chu State this time?

Nanzheng is close to the Central Plains, although it is the land of four wars, but it is quite prosperous. The group found an ordinary store to live in, perhaps because they were afraid of getting into trouble, Zhaoyun didn't allow the brothers to go out, so as not to get out of the way.

Although he also wanted to see what Hanzhong was like in the pre-Qin period, reason made him resist the temptation.

There was nothing to do all night, and the next morning, everyone got up early in the morning, settled the money with the store and left. The state of Chu has its own currency circulation, but bartering is the most primitive and effective method after all; If others are unwilling to accept anything other than Chu coins, it is not wrong to give a little more.

The entrance of the Baoxiao Valley is in the northwest of Nanzheng, and when you enter an inconspicuous pass, there is an endless stretch of dense forests and grasses, if it were not for Wu Jia to lead the way, Zhaoyun would have been lost in it.

But at the same time, Zhaoyun also began to pay attention to the herbs near the Baoxiao Valley, because this is the junction of Shuzhong and Yongliang, and many precious herbs grow here, perhaps among which Zhaoyun wants.

Peony licorice is not a rare herb, but if it is limited to this, then it is too trivial to travel the world by yourself. If you can collect more herbs and facilitate the pharmaceutical industry in Shuzhong in the future, you can be regarded as making your own contribution.

Along the way, Zhaoyun has collected more than a dozen kinds of herbs that have never been seen in Shu, and the most unusual thing is that he has seen several "gynostemma"! This thing is also known as the 'immortal longevity herb', the wild is as precious as the Ganoderma lucidum, and the combination of the two can also have a good therapeutic effect on diseases such as high blood pressure and hyperlipidemia.

It's not so much a medicinal herb as a health product; Anyway, Zhaoyun didn't plan to use him for medicine, and it would be good to make Yiyue into a health medicine when the time came.

The Qinba Mountains are rich in medicinal herbs, and if Shennong had been here in the past, he would have been able to walk a lot less. At least Zhaoyun alone, after walking in the Baoxiao Valley for less than a day, there are more than 30 kinds of medicinal materials in the baggage.

I'm afraid that when the whole of China travels, there will be hundreds of kinds of medicinal materials alone; I really can't bring it back on my own!

After walking in the Baoxian Valley for several days, a big mountain stood in front of everyone's eyes - the wall stood thousands of miles, verdant and verdant, sometimes as gentle and elegant as a virgin, and sometimes as rough and heroic as Ding Zhuang - this is the Qinling Mountains.

In these years, no one has been able to open a road for people to pass through in the Qinling Mountains, and it stands horizontally in front of everyone, which has become the biggest obstacle to entering Qin.

"General Wu Jia, how are you doing here?"

The military general looked at the mountains and looked at the dense forests on both sides, where there were many tribes and bandits' dens, and the detour was naturally possible, but if they were in danger, there were only six of them...... I'm afraid it's not enough for a nest of bandits to eat.

"Lord Shangqing, look ......"

After telling Zhaoyun about the worries in his heart, Wu Jia turned over and pretended to be a good child.

Zhaoyun didn't have to think deeply, so he smiled arrogantly: "What if there are bandits? Big deal, I've lifted this mountain! ”
