Chapter 498: The Deep Mountains are Covered with Mortal Dust
Chapter 498 The deep mountains are covered with jade
The group walked along the winding sheep intestine path all the way to the mountain.
On the way, as Lu Heng consciously chatted about some old things in Jiangning, Su Wenzheng, who was holding back beside him, gradually relaxed.
Although, it's still more than talking. But it's not like when I first started, when I only said yes all along.
However, the two of them had a good heart, and neither of them mentioned the old grievances of the Sulu family back then.
For Lu Heng, those are already things in the past, so don't mention them. As for Su Wenzheng, he didn't dare to mention it. After all, the Su family was not glorious about what happened back then, and it was even said that it was a bit inferior. Therefore, seeing that Lu Heng didn't mention it, he didn't have a bottom in his heart, and he wouldn't stumble on himself and mention those things.
"Send Jun Qianfan to go, and the spring breeze will send acacia." After laboriously climbing up a stone, Lu Heng took a breath a little, looked at the scenery of Saibei in front of him, which was completely different from the scenery of the southern country, and read a poem casually, turned his head, looked at Su Wenzheng, who was much stronger than himself behind him, smiled slightly, and quipped: "Heh, Su Gongzi is talented!" ”
Back then, when I was still a poor talent in Jiangning, I could often hear women on the streets and alleys reciting this poem. Moreover, whenever I talk about this poem, I always talk about the eldest son of the weaving family. said that he was handsome and pretty, and he was only eight buckets tall. A look of spring heart. I don't know how many women in the boudoir in those years thought about the Su family's eldest man coming to propose marriage every day.
Behind him, Su Wenzheng blushed when he heard this, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Lord Lu said that he was joking, in fact, this poem was bought by the villain with money, and it can't be counted." At that time, in order to compete with Xiao Zhiyuan and them for that false name, the villain also spent a lot of money. Looking back now, heh, I think it's ridiculous! ”
"Youth!" When Lu Heng heard this, he smiled, shook his head slightly, and said, "If you can't cherish it carefully, then squander it." I can't wait until I am old and dying, thinking back to my youth, and regretting that I didn't get anything. That would be a failure! You say yes, right? ”
"Oh, that's what my lord said!" Su Wenzheng smiled and replied politely.
Carefully taste Lord Lu's statement, but this is really the case.
Although today's life is poor and hard, recalling the life of spending money in Jiangning back then, and the impulsive mood, Su Wenzheng nodded thoughtfully.
Ouyang Mochou, who was walking quietly on the side, heard Lu Heng's words. His footsteps obviously stagnated, raised his head, his beautiful eyes were as calm as water, and he looked at Lu Heng who was standing on a flat mountain rock in front of him and looking into the distance.
Crooked!
After thinking for a moment, Ouyang Mochou's lips moved slightly for a moment, and he muttered in a low voice. It's just that when the words come out, the tone is very weak.
Ah Gui beside him saw the inexplicable look that flashed in Ouyang Mochou's eyes, and grinned.
"What are you looking at?" After Ouyang Mochou found out, he gave him a fierce look, then snorted and walked towards the mountain.
Behind him, Ah Gui was stunned for a moment, and then he still looked so honest.
Humming a little song that I learned with Childe two days ago, the name is called Peach Blossom Luck.
Lu Heng looked at the reckless mountains in front of him from afar, his expression calm. After a while, I don't know what I thought, I frowned and said to myself: "This vast cloud mountain, hundreds of miles, all the way up, but I haven't seen a few people?" It's a little weird! ”。
"When the Turks retreated, the cottages along the way were all damaged. Those people died and fled, and after a few days, there were not a few left! Beside him, Su Wenzheng sighed, shook his head and said gloomily.
"It's not going to all run away!" Lu Heng frowned, turned his head, looked at Su Wenzheng and asked.
These bandits are all registered in the government, even if they escape from Yunshan, it will be their safe place. What's more, there is no plastic surgery technology in this era. Even if there were, the high cost was not something that these poor bandits could afford.
"Not really!" Su Wenzheng shook his head, and then explained: "Some people have surrendered to the big village, and some people are so scared that they hide. It is estimated that he is waiting for the wind to pass, and then come out to resume his old business. ”
"Big stockade?" Lu Heng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then asked Su Wenzheng with a smile: "For example, Qingfeng Village?" ”
Su Wenzheng smiled awkwardly, shook his head and said: "The adults are joking, the big stockades that the villains are talking about, are those that have the support of the Turks behind them, or are directly submissive to the Turks. Those bandits, in order to survive, basically surrendered to these stockades. Qingfeng Village is now a thorn in the side of the Turks, who dares to join Qingfeng Village at this time!"
"How many big villages like this you are talking about in the Yunshan area?" After Lu Heng heard the news, he frowned slightly. After thinking for a moment, he raised his head and stared at Su Wenzheng and said, "How many people are there?" ”。
If it is really as Su Wenzheng said, the Turks recruited so many bandits when they retreated. This is something that cannot be taken seriously.
With the thoughts and means of the Turkic national teacher, it was by no means a whim to do this. The biggest possibility is to plant an eyeliner and monitor the movements of the Great Zhou army.
If this is the case, then this big stockade must be uprooted.
Although Su Wenzheng didn't understand why Lu Heng cared about the affairs of these bandits, at this time, seeing Lu Heng's serious face, he didn't dare to delay in his heart. After hearing this, he hurriedly replied, "There are three in total." ”
Then, Su Wenzheng raised his hand and pointed to a mountain in the direction of due north and said, "There is Black Dragon Village, less than thirty miles away from here. To the east, is the Qinglong Village. Also, less than twenty miles away from Black Dragon Village to the west, is Huangxian Village! Among the three villages, the largest number of people in the Black Dragon Village is overwhelming, with more than 3,000 people. The other two villages add up, there are 5,000 people! ”
Lu Heng looked in the direction that Su Wenzheng was pointing to, and waited to distinguish the location of the three stockades. A sneer gradually appeared on his face.
The three stockades are horns of each other, which can be attacked and defended. Oh, this step taken by the Turkic national teacher is a clever move.
"It's insidious!"
On the side, Ouyang Mochou saw Lu Heng showing this iconic smile again, pursed his lips and scolded in a low voice.
Beside him, Ah Gui heard the sound, turned his head, looked at the duplicitous Ouyang Mochou, and grinned. Seeing Ouyang Mochou turn his head and look at each other angrily, Ah Gui was so frightened that he stuck out his tongue, coughed and turned his head, and continued to sing the lewd words of the lover's little sister.
"The upper beam is not right, the lower beam is crooked!" After Ouyang Mochou glared at Ah Gui, he retracted his gaze angrily.
Agui scratched his head, his eyes were full of innocence.
"Agui!"
Lu Heng looked at the three peaks in the north, and after thinking for a moment, he turned his head and shouted.
"Childe!" Ah Gui held the stone with one hand, jumped down steadily, walked in front of Lu Heng, and bowed.
After thinking about it, Lu Heng stretched out his hand and pointed to the mountains. whispered something in Agui's ear.
"Alright, tell them to be careful!"
After Lu Heng stretched out his hand and patted Agui's shoulder, he smiled slightly, then raised his feet and continued towards the mountain.
"What did Lu Heng tell you?" When Ouyang Mochou walked by, he saw Agui's smirk on his face, and under curiosity, he stopped and asked.
"Agui, hurry up!" Lu Heng, who was walking, stopped. Turning his head, he said lightly to Agui.
Ah Gui nodded, turned his head, looked at Ouyang Mochou with an innocent smile, and signaled that I am very busy, if you want to ask, go and ask Gongzi.
"Virtue!" Ouyang Mochou glared at Lu Heng and pouted, "Who rarely listens!" ”
After resting in place for a while, everyone set off again. Head towards the Qingfeng Village on the top of the mountain.
On the way, the bandits who were arrested and then released did not seem as unreasonable as the legend when they saw this court official. There's even something endearing.
Gradually, everyone didn't want to be so frightened just now, and let go a lot. A few of the more daring ones even dared to lean over and ask the young court official a question or two.
Lu Heng was also in a good mood at this time, and he would answer all questions.
And, through chats with these people with them. Lu Heng also knew the reason why these people fell into the grass.
Some people's families are poor, and after a few people starve to death, in order to find a job, they follow the big boss in the village to fall into the grass. There are also people whose grievances cannot be resolved because of the problems of the government. In the end, when he was desperate, he went on a killing spree, and then became a bandit in this cloud mountain. There are also people who were robbed of the goods by the bandits, and they didn't dare to go back, so they simply surrendered to the cottage, so they also became bandits.
Of course, there are also people who yearn for this exciting life of the end of the world after a good life. I came here and became a bandit.
Always, there are all kinds of reasons, all kinds of things. Lu Heng counted it, and there were no less than a dozen kinds.
turned his head and glanced at Su Wenzheng beside him.
Su Wenzheng smiled, bowed his head and said shyly.
Lu Heng smiled, and then looked at the big man who had just competed with Agui and did not fall behind.
chatting along the way, the most important man is cheerful. What to say. Moreover, Lu Heng also learned that this big man has a majestic name: Zhang Fei, the word Yide. Yan Zhao people.
However, this Zhang Fei is not the other Zhang Fei.
That Zhang Fei killed pigs and sold meat. And this Zhang Fei is a bandit.
However, the two also have similarities.
That is the martial arts are strong, the strength is infinite, and there is the courage of ten thousand people.
If you put on a suit of armor for the tattered man in front of you, and then give him a war horse with a divine horse, and then a snake spear in his hand. This Zhang Fei coincides perfectly with that Zhang Fei.
"What about you? Zhang Fei, why did you become a bandit? Lu Heng smiled, looked at Zhang Feidao, who was begging Agui to teach her martial arts with a bitter look on his face.
"Huh?" Zhang Fei suddenly heard the senior official call his name, and turned back in a panic. Seeing Lu Heng looking at him with a smile, Zhang Fei thought for a while, then waved his hand and said indifferently: "Oh, I killed someone at home." In order to escape from the government, I ran here! ”
