Chapter Eighty-Three: A Country of Its Own

Mining and smelting iron and casting armor are the most important conditions for dominating the world, how can Zhang Taiji not pay attention to it? So he immediately agreed to Li Yi's request for cooperation, and proposed to go to the field to inspect, in addition to understanding the Li family's output, Zhang Taiji himself was also very curious about the ancient iron-smelting technology. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

On paper, it will be shallow! I've seen some ancient iron-making knowledge in books before, after all, it's not as real as what I've seen with my own eyes.

Zhang Baili has a headache about his son's ability to do things, isn't it good for children to study honestly? I wanted to say two words about Zhang Taiji, but I saw that everyone in the room was looking at their son with admiration on their faces, and then thought about themselves, that is, they took the light of their son, so that they could hold the beauty.

Shaking his head helplessly, Zhang Baili silently exited the lobby, and involuntarily walked to Miaoyin's room, seeing him come in, Miaoyin got up to greet him, and saw that he frowned, as if he had something on his mind, Miaoyin asked softly:

"What's on the official's mind?"

"Alas! It doesn't matter..."

Zhang Baili sighed in a low voice, barely showing a smile.

"Officials can't trust slaves?"

Miao Yin snorted, don't turn her head, pretend to be angry, ignore Zhang Baili, that look indescribably distressing, Zhang Baili saw it, his heart immediately felt like a cat scratching, stepped forward and gently hugged Miao Yin, whispered relief, and poured beans into a bamboo tube in his mouth to tell Miao Yin what had just happened.

Miao Yin listened carefully, covered her mouth with her little hand and chuckled, and tapped Zhang Baili's forehead with her white and tender fingers like spring onions, and said:

"What should I do, it turns out that you, the father, ate the vinegar of your son!"

"Where does this come from?!"

Zhang Baili was coquettish by a beauty, and his soul was taken away a little, and his brain was suddenly not enough.

"Tai Chi is very talented, even if the concubine is a character seen from the book, it is rare, and it will definitely not be a thing in the pool in the future."

After Miaoyin finished speaking, she looked at Zhang Baili with silky eyes, Zhang Baili's eyes couldn't help but look stupid, and his brain was even more insufficient, so he nodded blankly.

"Official, is what the slave said right or not?"

Miaoyin's small mouth pursed slightly, and she asked with big watery eyes.

"What the lady said is very true, very true."

"Where did the official's sorrow come from?"

Miaoyin asked with a smile on her face again, and seeing that Zhang Bailinuo didn't answer, she continued.

"Tai Chi, no matter how heroic he is, is not your son yet?"

Miaoyin's smile is like a flower, and the Buddha is blaming Zhang Baili for not opening his mind, Zhang Baili came back to his senses, laughed twice, and said with some laughter:

"Isn't he also your son?!"

Miao Yin was suddenly ashamed, snorted lightly, and turned her head ...... again.

The mountains are undulating, the peaks are towering, and the cliffs are like knives and axes, standing upright. Several small streams, flowing out of the mountains, flowing water converge in Longtan, clear as a mirror. The shadows of the mountains and trees are swaying in the water, like nine dragons playing in the water, magical and quiet. On the edge of Longtan, under the cliff, the trees disperse cool air, the grass produces cold wind, the stone wall is towering, the light is dim, and the sun is not seen.

After Zhang Taiji and his entourage separated from Zhang Baili, they followed Li Yuanwai all the way south, crossed the ditch and entered the mountains.

No wonder the Li family can escape the pursuit of the imperial court and hide, this place is really difficult to find, of course, it is also possible that Li Yuanwai deliberately took Zhang Taiji and others around the bend in order to shadow the traces of the Tibetan people, anyway, this mountain road is very difficult, three days are walking in the mountains and forests, almost no people can be seen, and many places still need to get off the horse and walk.

Fortunately, Li Yuanwai told him that he had reached the mountain after crossing the mountain, and the group came to a mountain pass, and Mu Lun suddenly whispered a warning, "There are more than ten people on the left and right, and they are approaching." ”

As he spoke, Zhang Gong and arrow made a defensive posture, and Shen Tugai, Tiankui and others also showed their weapons one after another.

Li Yuanwai looked at Mu Lun in surprise, then at Zhang Taiji, and said in a low voice:

"Don't get me wrong, you should be your own people."

As soon as the words fell, I heard someone shouting in the woods:

"It's the hero of that road, why are you here?"

I only heard his voice, but I didn't see anyone. Li Yuanwai replied loudly: "The soldiers and horses of the Han family rode the north wind, drummed and broke the dog in the west. ”

There was silence in the woods, and then the person just now said, "Er Suihan will go out and cut the grass to reap miraculous achievements."

To the poem? Zhang Taiji couldn't help but be stunned for a while, and then understood that this might be something like "Heavenly King Cover Earth Tiger, Pagoda Town River Demon." Secret words.

The code was right, the people in the woods showed their figures, Mu Lun guessed correctly, and sure enough, there were more than ten people on each side of the road, all of whom were young and strong men, with swords, guns, bows and arrows in their hands.

A young man at the head looked at Li Yuanwai, then at Zhang Taiji and others, and took two steps forward to clasp his fists and arch his hands.

"Are the two of you Li Yuanwai and Sect Leader Zhang?"

Zhang Taiji didn't speak, Li Yuanwai arched his hand casually, and asked, "Why do you look at your face?" ”

"In Xia Yang Lei, Li Yuan has been outside for many years, and it's normal not to remember me." Yang Lei replied respectfully.

"The third child of the Yang family?" Li Yuanwai asked hesitantly.

"Uncle still remembers me!" Seeing that Li Yuanwai recognized himself, Yang Lei seemed very happy.

"This is Sect Leader Zhang." Li Yuanwai introduced the two.

Zhang Taiji took the initiative to step forward and salute: "In the next Zhang Taiji, I have seen Brother Yang." ”

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, the sect leader is the honored guest of the young master of my family, the young master has been waiting for a long time, please come with me."

said that he took hands and made an invitation, and then led the way in front of his head, and Zhang Taiji led people to follow.

Entering the mountain pass, Zhang Taiji looked at the high mountain walls on both sides There are many stone caves, I think it is used as a lookout post, the long mountain valley road is difficult to walk, here is really easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Passing through the valley road, the eyes suddenly open up, there is a huge basin surrounded by mountains, as far as the eye can see, the basin is a long and narrow fish shape from east to west, the length is not less than 20 miles, and the width of the east and west is also more than 10 miles, there are more than 10 large and small villages distributed in the middle, look at the scale of the village, there are fifty or sixty households in the small, the largest must be more than two hundred households, there are a lot of farmland scattered around the village, cattle and sheep are raised on the hillside, and there are roads between the villages.

Zhang Taiji knew by heart that the population here should be more than 5,000 people, which is already equivalent to the population of a small country in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Without waiting for Zhang Taiji to think too much, he saw a team of people in the distance quickly catching up, and the person riding a horse in front of him was Li Yi.

Zhang Taiji looked back at the mountain road when he came, and sure enough, there was beacon smoke burning at the top of the mountain, and Li Yi and the others should have seen the beacon smoke before they learned of the arrival of Zhang Taiji and others.

Li Yi and Zhang Taiji met, and there was no need for some politeness, and then Li Yi led the way, and everyone came to the largest village, the village was surrounded by a wall, and the small river passed around the village, forming a natural moat, like a slightly smaller castle.

Crossing the suspension bridge into the village, there are a lot of pedestrians on the street, and even a variety of shops, seeing Zhang Taiji and others coming, they have stopped to watch, obviously there are few outsiders here, look at their clothes, no different from the outside world, but most of them are cloth clothes, and there are few silk and satin people.

Came to the door of the tallest house in the village, several long-bearded old men waited in front of the door, Zhang Taiji and others stopped and dismounted, and Li Yi introduced Zhang Taiji one by one.

The leader is Li Yi's father, Li Cheng. The rest are Yang, Wei, Wu, Tian, etc., all of whom are patriarchs or elders of various ethnic groups.

Judging from the etiquette of the reception, these people still attach great importance to Zhang Taiji's cooperation, and they are not lazy because of Zhang Taiji's age. Everyone greeted each other and went to the living room to take a seat.

When we met for the first time, we weren't familiar with each other, so everyone here seemed to have a tacit understanding, and they didn't speak easily, but just looked at each other with their eyes.

Zhang Taiji, as a guest and a junior, first broke the silence, coughed lightly, and after attracting everyone's attention, he said:

"Jin people Tao Yuanming has a masterpiece "The Story of the Peach Blossom Spring", during which there is a paradise saying, the kid thought it was just a rumor, but he didn't expect to be lucky enough to see it today!"

After several old men looked at each other, Li Cheng replied with a smile: "Sect Master Zhang is really knowledgeable. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Taiji, and then at the few old men present, several old men all showed joy on their faces, and they all spoke out in response, and Li Cheng said.

"Presumably, the dog has already explained to Sect Leader Zhang the origin of our waiting."

Zhang Taiji nodded hurriedly: "The previous grievances and grievances, the boy is young and doesn't know much." ”

Seeing that there was nothing unusual on the faces of several people, Zhang Taiji continued: "The kid is only here for mutual benefit and cooperation. ”
