Chapter 194: In the South Mountain

When Lao Huang was transferred from the prison army under Li Jinzhong to the Yulin Army under the command of Wu Bi, he had accompanied Wu Bi as a guard of the Yanying Palace near the Zuozang Library, and knew that the Zuo Zang Treasury was used by the imperial court to store taxes, and was familiar with the surrounding terrain, so he thought about taking advantage of the unpreparedness of everyone to sneak into the Daming Palace from the Hanlin Courtyard and steal some property from the Zuo Zang Treasury.

"Jungnan Mountain! When you get to Zhongnanshan, you have to go out of the city, and you have to pay at least half of the money for this trip, can you afford it? Lao Huang saw that Lai Xing'er was dressed in white clothes and blue pants, dressed in the outfit of an inferior handyman, and was still inferior to himself, so he rolled his eyes and asked.

In addition to the scorpion sword that Lai Xing'er snatched from the hands of the Tubo soldiers, he really couldn't find anything else of value for a while, and he couldn't help but be stopped by Lao Huang's question.

"It's hard to say." Jiang Zhongshi listened to it, put Xin Twelve Niang's body lightly under the big white fruit tree, took over the conversation, and shouted to Lao Huang in a rough voice, "Although you use the car to help us transport people to Zhongnan Mountain, you will not be asked to return empty-handed." I guess I can exchange two or three dollars for a dead leopard. ”

Lao Huang saw that the stone body in the river was as strong as an ox, and his speech was very different from ordinary people, for fear of annoying him, not only could he not make a penny, but he also had to take a life in vain, and he hurriedly said to Jiang Zhongshi with a smile: "It's enough, you don't need a fierce beast like a leopard, as long as three or four hares, it can be worth the money for this trip." Strongman, I have to trouble you to move this helper to the car......"

Seeing that Jiang Zhongshi persuaded Lao Huang so easily, Lai Xing'er smiled bitterly, and hurriedly beckoned Jiang Zhongshi to move Xin Shiniang's body to Lao Huang's donkey cart outside the gate of Hanlin Courtyard, and was worried that it would be inconvenient to be seen on the way, so he went back to the courtyard and hugged some fallen leaves to cover the body, so he and Lao Huang and the other three of them rode together and ran towards the direction of Zhongnan Mountain.

Zhongnan Mountain is located in the southwest direction of Chang'an, the east foot is only sixty or seventy miles away from Chang'an, but the mountain stretches to the west, eight hundred miles endlessly, across the Guannei, Jingyuan two roads, the west end has almost reached the edge of Hexi Road.

On the unforgettable night of Shangyuan more than two years ago, Lai Xing'er was ordered by the then prince (now the emperor) to borrow a token from Li Jinzhong's mansion, and ran all the way to the foot of Zhongnan Mountain. At that time, I came and went in a hurry, and I didn't care about enjoying the scenery in the mountains. This time, together with Jiang Zhongshi and Lao Huang, Xin Twelve Niang's body was transported to the foot of Zhongnan Mountain for burial, although it was a sad thing, but because Chang'an was quickly recovered by the official army, the interest of the two people was very high. As soon as he arrived at the foot of the mountain, Jiang Zhongshi urged the chasing wind to step down, galloped over, caught a little sika deer that ran down the mountain to forage, fell to Lao Huang's feet, and shouted to him: "This deer is worth your foot money." If you're lucky, I'll catch a wild boar and give it to you, so that you won't run in vain. ”

Lao Huang was already satisfied with the sika deer, he didn't expect Jiang Zhongshi to catch a wild boar for him again, but ******** wanted to get rid of Jiang Zhongshi as soon as possible, lest he would not be dissatisfied with him for a while, and he would also incur an end like a prey.

"Brother, Zhongnan Mountain is about to arrive. Do you think let's find a secluded place nearby, so that the big lady on the car can be buried earlier? Lao Huang tied the sika deer's limbs and put it in the back of the car, while deliberately reminding Lai Xing'er.

Without waiting for Lai Xing'er to answer, Jiang Zhongshi waved his hand again and again: "Big brother, don't listen to him." I have been living in the mountains and forests since I was a child, and I am most familiar with the things in the mountains, and I have heard the old gentlemen in the village say that after death, people should not be buried in the mountains at the end, because it is easy to attract jackals and eagle vultures and destroy the corpses. Since the eldest lady asked us to bury her in Zhongnan Mountain before she died, she had to find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers and people, so as not to cause peace behind her. ”

Lai Xing'er heard that he was reasonable, and suddenly thought of the Yangtian Pond where he met Liu Yi two years ago, and vaguely remembered that Liu Yi was meditating by the Yangtian Pond at that time, and it was inferred that the place where he lived should be not far from Yangtian Pond. So, he nodded and said to Lao Huang: "The guy doesn't need to be so anxious, I sound quite reasonable about what Xiao Shi said about my brother." I've got a place in my heart, and it's only twenty or thirty miles away, so let's go around there and see each other first. ”

Lao Huang saw that Lai Xing'er and Jiang Zhongshi did not agree to find a nearby place to bury Xin Twelve Niang, and they had nothing to say, so they had to drive the donkey cart and follow the two horses to the depths of Zhongnan Mountain.

The journey of more than 20 miles was just there, and when the three of them rushed to the bottom of the preaching platform in Zhongnan Mountain, the sun had not yet set in the western sky.

"Let's hurry up, maybe we can put the eldest lady in the ground before it gets dark." Lai Xing'er turned over and dismounted, turned back to Jiang Zhongshi and Lao Huang and said.

Because Yangtianchi is still about a mile above the platform, the mountain road is rugged, horses and cars are impassable, Jiang Zhongshi and Lao Huang also got off the horse and car with Lai Xing'er, still carried the body of Xin Twelve Niang by Jiang Zhongshi, Lai Xing'er led the way in front, Jiang Zhongshi lived, behind Lao Huang's mat, three people lined up in a row and followed to climb up to Yangtian Pond.

"Woo Woo ......"

With the sound of running water, a big wolf dog with golden fur like a calf rushed out of the forest in front of him, stopped on the mountain road in front of Lai Xing'er, and barked at several people.

Lai Xing'er put the sword in his hand in front of his chest and shouted at the wolf dog: "Who are you raising an animal, quickly call your master to come and talk." ”

Where did the wolf dog listen to him, while barking, he went around Xing'er and pounced straight towards Jiang Zhongshi behind him.

This is obviously a domestic dog, Lai Xing'er was afraid that Jiang Zhongshi would be annoyed, so he kicked it to death, and it was difficult to explain to its owner, so he hurriedly turned around with his sword and stopped in front of Jiang Zhongshi.

"Xiao Huang, stay there. I don't think a few of them are bad people, you go back and tell your mother, and you say that there are guests here. A crisp voice sounded from behind the wolfdog, and before he could finish speaking, a little boy of twelve or thirteen years old ran out of the woods, barking at the wolfdog.

Seeing that the owner of the wolf dog was coming, Lai Xing'er put down the long sword in his hand, hugged his fists and asked the little boy: "Come down Xing'er, dare to ask this little brother, are you living near Yangtian Pond with your family?" (To be continued.) )
