Chapter 1135: Zuo Ci Guidance

recalled the original Zhuge Liang's southern expedition and the disposal method after encountering the four-eyed poisonous spring. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info seems to have a local told Zhuge Liang that it was said that there was a spring in the place where Meng Jie, Meng Jie's brother, lived, called Anle Spring, and after drinking the water of the dumb spring was poisoned, drinking the water of Anle Spring could detoxify.

However, the question arises again, where does Meng Jie, the elder brother of Meng Shu, live in seclusion? Li Yi only vaguely remembered that the place where Meng Jie lived was more than 20 miles away from the poisonous spring. In the unit of measurement of later generations, it is about ten kilometers.

Without knowing the direction of Mengjie's seclusion, if you want to search for a carpet, it is equivalent to searching a circular area with a radius of more than ten kilometers. This is a territory of more than 300 square kilometers, and even if Li Yi sends out more than 100,000 soldiers under his command, I don't know how long it will take to find it.

However, at this time, apart from this stupidest method, Li Yi really couldn't think of any other way.

Li Yi thought for a while and asked, "How is the situation with the special forces?" ”

Luo Cheng reported: "Back to the emperor, the special forces have just been used as a vigilance force, and no one has been poisoned. ”

Li Yi nodded, and asked again: "Is the physical condition of the special forces okay?" ”

Luo Cheng said: "The special forces have carried out some special training, and they are more accustomed to the environment of this Nanban, and now their physical condition is okay." ”

Hearing this, Li Yi was a little relieved and said: "In this case, Shixin, you and Shubao and Jingde will release the special forces and send them out to search for the natives, or there may be a way to rescue them, and at the same time find a water source." ”

"Yes." Luo Cheng took the order and left.

Li Yi's luck was not too bad, after sending special forces to search, about an hour later, a special soldier came back and brought back a native.

The aborigine is an old man, on crutches, walking is very difficult, but the spirit is very good, the face is full of red light, the bones are strange, and he looks like the Central Plains and the Southern Barbarians.

Li Yi looked at this old man, not to mention more than seventy, as the saying goes, there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, this old man will live here for a lifetime, maybe there is a good way.

So, Li Yi didn't dare to slack off, and personally dismounted and went over to support Lao Suo. And Lao Suo was not afraid, and let Li Yifeng help him.

The guards hurriedly took the hall and placed it.

Li Yi said, "Old man, please take a seat." How long does the old man live? Name? Where to stay? ”

Lao Suo threw away his crutches at this time and bowed: "The true dragon is on top, the old man has heard the benevolence of the Tang Dynasty, and I have the honor to meet him today." The native people of the Southern Barbarians, because the benevolence of the Son of Heaven can live, are all grateful. ”

Several military advisors glanced at each other, and said in their hearts that this old man was well-informed, and he even knew that the emperor gave preferential treatment to the Nanban captives and gave them survival.

Li Yi was also surprised, but he immediately became happy, it seems that there are also reclusive masters in this southern barbarian land, and the older he gets, the more capable he is.

So Li Yi didn't dare to slack off, and after being modest, he immediately asked: "Uncle, I want to bring the Central Plains culture to Nanban, so that the Nanban natives can live a stable and happy life." However, when I got here, I was harmed by the poisonous spring, does my husband have a way to resolve it? ”

Lao Suo smiled slightly and said, "The water that Wang Jun drinks is called the water of the dumb spring by our locals. After drinking, I can't speak, except for not being able to speak for a short time, it's not a big deal, but after three days, I will definitely die! ”

After Li Yi heard this, he didn't panic too much. For three days, even if the special forces took a carpet search, they could search the surrounding area of hundreds of square kilometers. In such a situation, there is no need to worry about the soldiers being poisoned to death, but worrying about whether the army can survive until the time when they find a safe source of water.

Seeing that Li Yi was still very calm at this time, Lao Su couldn't help but nod secretly, and said in his heart that this Tang Dynasty Son of Heaven is really extraordinary, and he has a kind of temperament that Mount Tai collapses in front of him and does not change color.

However, he planned to give Li Yi another dose of fierce material, and said: "In addition to this dumb spring, there are three springs. A spring in the southeast is called Rouquan, the water temperature is cold and biting, the whole body is soft and boneless as soon as people drink it, and a puddle of mud decays and dies. There is also a spring in the south, named Black Spring, this spring is more vicious, you don't need to drink it, as long as you get a little contaminated, your hands and feet will be black and you will die. There is also a spring in the southwest, which is called a spring of extinction, like water boiling, if a person uses it, his whole body festers and dies. These four springs emit poisonous gases, go deep into the forest, and you will die when you hear them! ”

Regarding the four-eyed poisonous spring, Li Yi, who has memories of his previous life, is mentally prepared. However, after hearing this, the ministers of the Tang Dynasty felt cold in their hearts, and said in their hearts that this Nanban is really not a place where people live, no wonder they are angry.

Li Yi looked at Lao Su calmly and asked, "Since my uncle knows so much about these four-eyed poisonous springs, there must be a solution!" ”

Sure enough, Lao Suo nodded and said: "The true dragon son of heaven is really not an ordinary person, the old man does have a place to go here, which can solve the difficulties of the son of heaven." ”

Li Yi breathed a sigh of relief, bowed down and said, "Please also ask the old man to teach me!" ”

Lao Suo stood up with his crutches, and Li Yi also hurriedly got up.

I saw Lao Suo pointing to the west and said to Li Yi: "Twenty miles in this direction, there is a valley called Wan'an Valley. There is a spring in the valley, and the name is Wan'an Spring. Next to the spring lived a master named Wan'an Hermit. This person lives in the valley, learns the culture of the Central Plains, and is quite talented. There is a spring behind his thatched cottage, which is called Anle Spring. If someone nearby accidentally gets poisoned, they will go to ask for a bowl and drink it to cure the poison. The true dragon son can lead the army forward, Wan'an Creek can be used for the army to drink, and Anle Spring can be detoxified! ”

Li Yi was overjoyed, hugged his fists and thanked him: "If it weren't for the guidance of my father-in-law, how could my soldiers and horses survive?" I am really grateful, and I am willing to hear the name of Gao, and there will be a good reward! ”

Lao Suo smiled kindly, didn't dare to accept the salute, and bowed back: "If the true dragon son can fulfill his promise, civilize the barbarians, and lead the people of this side to live a good life like the Central Plains, the old man is grateful!" ”

After saying that, Lao Suo turned around and staggered away.

Li Yi asked while seeing him off: "Uncle, be sure to tell your name!" ”

Lao Su laughed and said, "The true dragon son has a heart, you can call me Zuo Ci." ”

"Zuo Ci ......" Li Yi was dumbfounded when he heard this.

Regarding Zuo Ci, an almost god-like existence in the Three Kingdoms, Li Yi naturally will not be completely ignorant. However, isn't this Zuo Ci from Lujiang County? How did you get to this southern barbarian land?

Zuo Ci, Mr. Wujiao, a famous monk in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, lived in Tianzhu Mountain and studied the art of alchemy. The Book of the Later Han says that he rarely had Shintoism. Ge Hong's "Hug Puzi Jindan Chapter" contains Zuo Ci as Ge Xuan's teacher. It is said that there are three volumes of the Taiqing Dan Sutra, as well as one volume each of the Jiuding Dan Sutra and the Golden Liquid Dan Sutra. Cao Zhi said in his "Arguments on the Dao" that he was good at intercourse. According to relevant historical records, after sixty or seventy years of cultivation, he became an immortal after death. Ge Hong's "Legend of the Immortals" also said that he can enslave ghosts and gods, and will change and open up valleys.

There are many folk legends about Zuo Ci, and in many Three Kingdoms games, Zuo Ci often appears as a very bullish, fairy-like NPC character, Li Yi never thought that he came to this Nanban, and after encountering danger, he actually met the legendary Zuo Ci.

However, Li Yi did not fight and kill Cao Cao, Liu Biao and Sun Ce like the legendary Cao Cao, Liu Biao and Sun Ce after they met Zuo Ci. He just sincerely thanked Zuo Ci, after all, no matter what, now Zuo Ci can be regarded as kind to him.

For Zuo Ci, Li Yi still trusts him. In fact, at this moment, he had no other better choice than to believe in Zuo Ci.

Immediately, Li Yi led the army and marched in the direction guided by Zuo Ci.

Sure enough, not long after the army started, Li Yi met the special forces soldiers of the Tang Army who came back from exploring the road in this direction, and they told Li Yi that ten miles ahead, they did find a spring that could detoxify. And that place is called Wan'an Valley.

Li Yi finally put his mind at ease, it seems that Zuo Ci did not fool him.

Immediately, Li Yi ordered the army to speed up and advance in the direction of Wan'an Valley.

After arriving in the Wan'an Valley, Li Yi found that this valley was really beautiful, with tall pine and cypress trees, lush bamboo forests, and strange flowers and plants that could not be named at all. The poor mountains and bad waters outside can't be compared at all, and it is indeed where Coats lives.

After walking for another mile, I found that there is a mountain villa among the grass and trees of Qilin, and there are several unique wooden houses, and the architectural style of the wooden houses is very centralized.

Li Yi was overjoyed and hurriedly rode his horse to the fence gate.

The rumbling sound of horses' hooves had already startled a boy. The boy was obviously frightened, and fell to his knees as soon as he went out.

Li Yi was very reluctant not to go, seeing that the child was scared, he said that he explained his intention with a pleasant face.

Soon, I saw another person walking out, looking like he was in his thirties, wearing Confucian clothes, shaking a fan, and feeling a little fairy-like.

After the man saw Li Yi, he said: "I have heard the prestige of Emperor Wude of the Tang Dynasty for a long time, but I didn't expect to be fortunate to meet it today!" ”

Li Yi returned the courtesy: "Mr. is polite, Li Yi is polite." There is a lot of annoyance, please don't mind, sir. ”

The man said: "Emperor Wude inherited the mandate of heaven and led the army here, just for the people of the Southern Barbarians to get rid of the barbarian hardships and live happily like the people of the Central Plains." If the festival knew about this earlier, it would have been sent to the army, and he would not dare to work for the emperor. ”

Li Yi listened to the man's words, and immediately knew in his heart that the man in front of him was indeed Meng Jie, that is, Meng Shu's eldest brother. Moreover, this eldest brother of Meng Huo, as described in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, is very respectful of the Central Plains culture. Immediately, Li Yi was relieved.

Therefore, Meng Jie ordered the boy to lead a group of dumb soldiers to the stream and draw water to drink; Then he spat out his saliva, and the soldiers were able to speak. Seeing this scene, Li Yi finally completely relieved his heart, and the crisis of the army was finally over at this moment.
