Reading Pavilion 『 』, the full text is free to read. When it was time to set off, Zhou Tao and Xu Hui took two of their men to drive the car in front. The five of us are the rear car.

When it was the turn of someone to be the driver, I was a little worried, Huzi and I couldn't drive, Lu Xueman couldn't drive, only the corpse shadow could drive. Fortunately, Yuwan Bay will also open, otherwise the corpse shadow will be exhausted to death.

At this time, the corpse shadow said: "It's good that Wanwan is with me, otherwise I would really collapse." You said that the three of you are too, why don't you learn to drive! ”

Huzi said: "How expensive the car is, we are all ordinary people, we can't afford to buy a car, let alone learn to drive." Wanwan and you both have their own cars, and you are both big bosses. ”

Yuwanwan said: "Come less, what kind of big boss am I, I think I'm a hard-working fool." ”

I said, "Don't say that, you are Huang Shiren, and I am Yang Bailao!" ”

Yuwanwan looked down at himself and said, "Have you ever seen Huang Shiren who is so miserable?" I've been wearing this dress for days, and it's spoiled. ”

The corpse said, "I have clothes, I'll find you a set and you can change them first, and we'll wait for you." ”

Yuwanwan went to change clothes, and when we came back, we finally set off.

The mountain road is difficult to navigate, and the car cannot run at all.

Thankfully, both cars are new, so there's no need to worry about the car breaking down. The corpse shadow said that she bought the two cars at her expense, and these two cars were paid for Zhou Tao and Xu Hui. After this was done, the two cars belonged to the four of them.

I said, "Why are you looking for them?" Can't we do it ourselves? ”

"Their ancestors were all merchants on this line, these people have been running this line since they were teenagers, and they are very familiar with the customs of this line, and they are familiar with almost every town. They were able to help us a lot and know where we were most likely to be looking. ”

I said, "Are there any important goals?" ”

The corpse shadow said: "Zhou Tao said that the place we are looking for is most likely to be Tongzi County in front. Our first destination was Tongzi County. If there are no clues in Tongzi County, our second destination is Xifeng County, Guizhou. The third is Panxian, and the last stop is Qujing in Yunnan. ”

I said, "What if none of these four stops come to fruition?" ”

"Then go home, and it's over for the time being. When you have the chance, look for it. The corpse said.

Huzi looked at the map behind him and said, "It doesn't look that far away!" Is this two hundred kilometers? ”

"It's not far, it's just not easy to walk. This is not comparable to the Great Plains, running with the accelerator pedal on the end, driving here, exhausting people. ”

As he spoke, he began to shift the steering wheel again, and he pulled hard.

Huzi said loudly at this time: "Isn't there a Yelang Town in this Tongzi County?" What else is there to find here? This must be the city of Yalang we are looking for! ”

The corpse figure said in front, "That's why we stopped here in the first place." Although there is a Yelang Town here, this Yelang Town is definitely not Yelang City, the capital of the former Yelang Country! The scale is small and there is no symbolic architecture. But it can't be said that it's not a clue. ”

I said, "So, our first stop is to go to Yelang Town, right?" ”

The corpse shadow sighed and said, "That's right, it's all up to you to go to Yelang City this time." ”

We set off at 8 o'clock in the morning, passing through villages and towns all the way non-stop, from the national highway/on the provincial highway, and at one o'clock in the afternoon, we arrived at Yelang Town, Tongzi County, Guizhou.

When we arrived, it was obvious that we had entered another world.

We drove over a bridge and parked in the courtyard of a large car shop in the town of Yoro.

The town is surrounded by rape flowers, which is simply a fairy tale world of Hans Christian Andersen.

Zhou Tao and Xu Hui went to communicate with the proprietress in the local language, which was similar to the language of Yunguichuan, and they had no barriers to communication.

This was the first time Huzi and I had seen a large field of rape flowers.

We have eaten rapeseed, so small one by one, we thought that rape flowers are the kind of rape flowers we eat. Actually seeing it, it's not the same thing at all. These are clearly two varieties, it seems that we were deceived by the teacher, from childhood to adulthood, no teacher told us that rape flowers, rapeseed, and the rape we eat have nothing to do with a dime.

The rape here grows very tall, and it looks like it can be as tall as half a man. The flowers that bloom are brightly colored and form a sea of flowers.

Huzi and I scolded and complained about the teacher's incompetence, and Yuwanwan snickered on the side and said, "I have known that rape flowers are like this, I didn't expect you to be so stupid." ”

I said, "Can we be blamed for this?" If I hadn't come here this time, I guess I wouldn't have known that rape flowers are like this in my life. I really fucking thought that the rape we ate was used to bloom and spew seeds for oil. It's just that it was still small when we ate it. ”

Huzi said: "Accident or not? ”

I nodded and said, "Accident, accident." ”

After eating in the cart shop, everyone began to organize their equipment.

Huzi and I lay in bed for an hour before we both got up, I looked at my watch, then washed my face, and went outside to the dining room to meet the corpse and them.

The corpse shadow said, "Everyone is here, let me tell you what I have." ”

I said, "Is there any clue?" ”

The corpse shadow said: "The specific ones are provided by Zhou Tao and Xu Hui, let me give you a rough idea first, if there is anything you don't understand, ask them." ”

We all nodded.

The corpse shadow said: "This is Yelang Town, there is a legend here, and it is said that the people here are all moved out of the mountains. There was a large city in the mountains, where their ancestors lived. Later, he went to a white-clothed Taoist priest who loved to drink, where he taught everyone knowledge and learned Han culture, and later the Taoist priest died in the city. Many Han Chinese came to hear the news and wept at the grave of the Taoist priest. This Taoist priest should be Li Bai. ”

I said, "So, here is Li Bai's grave, right?" ”

The corpse shadow said, "That's right, as long as we find this tomb, we will basically find the seat of Yelang City." My father also followed this clue back then. ”

I nodded and said, "It's a clue indeed." But why did all the people here move out? ”

"Soon after the death of the white-clothed Taoist priest, the people of the city died one after another, they had difficulty breathing, coughed, and vomited black blood clots. I think it was the Han Chinese who brought the plague, and the locals thought it was a curse, so the living people moved out and finally moved to this place. The ancient city of Yelang in the past was also abandoned. ”

I said, "But how long have they been gone?" ”

"It is said that it took three months to walk from winter to spring."

I exhaled and said, "It's hard to find, which direction should we look for?" ”

The corpse said, "This is your specialty, you have to lead us in the right direction." Otherwise, it's so big around here, and it's full of mountains, and if you go in the wrong direction, you'll never find a place. A miss is as good as a mile. ”

I said, "I need more details, and it's hard for me to deduce direction based on a story alone." However, the general direction can be judged, according to human logic, people will definitely go in the direction of the rising sun, and the sun represents hope. In other words, we should be in a western or northwesterly direction. Even so, without a clear clue, there is no way to find the exact location. ”

The corpse shadow said: "This is a question that you should consider, not something that Lu Xueman and I can consider." ”

I nodded and said, "Cheng, give me some time, I need to visit the local area." I need more details. "High-quality and free reading is in the Reading Pavilion."
