After leaving Qinzhou City, Tang Zhou and the others traveled all the way west. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

And at this time, Tang Zhou suddenly had the feeling that Journey to the West was re-taking the Tang Seng Road, but there was no monkey by his side, no pig and Monk Sha, and of course, it was unlikely that they would encounter ninety-nine eighty-one difficulties.

On the way to the west, Tang Zhou couldn't help but want to tell Princess Wencheng the story of Journey to the West several times, but thinking that Master Xuanzang might have obtained the true scriptures and began to return to the Tang Dynasty, he felt that it was better not to tell Princess Wencheng, otherwise it would be exposed.

Not many people know about Master Xuanzang's trip to learn scriptures, and he was still young at the time, if he told the story of Journey to the West, everyone might say what to say about him.

The story of Journey to the West can't be said, let's talk about the Three Kingdoms, but Princess Wencheng doesn't seem to be very interested in these things of fighting, killing, and conspiracy, and always has a lot of interest when Tang Zhou talks about it.

At this time, Tang Zhou realized how clumsy his storytelling methods were.

Time is slow, in the twilight of spring, they came to the Bird Mouse Mountain, beyond the Bird Mouse Mountain is Linzhou, they are ready to recuperate in Linzhou, and then go on the road.

But just as they were about to enter the Bird and Mouse Mountain, they were told that the terrain inside the Bird and Mouse Mountain was complicated, and they could get lost in it if they were not careful, and they needed a guide to cross the Bird and Mouse Mountain.

After hearing this, Tang Zhou immediately went to the local area to find two guides.

The two guides were very young men, who could afford to endure hardships, and when they heard that Tang Zhou gave him a lot of money, they came happily.

After the two guides came, Tang Zhou and the others entered the Bird and Mouse Mountain.

After they entered the Bird and Mouse Mountain, there was nothing on the first day, but in the evening, the two guides were a little nervous, and always wanted to stay with the soldiers, and looked very suspicious.

After Ma Qing found out about this, he reported these things to Tang Zhou, Tang Zhou frowned slightly after hearing this, and hurriedly sent someone to arrest the two guides, they have now entered the Bird and Mouse Mountain, and there is no room for negligence.

"I heard you always want to stay with the guards?" Tang Zhou looked at them and asked coldly.

One of the guides called Ma Shiqian, and when Tang Zhou asked him this, he immediately knelt down: "Master Hou, the little one is afraid." ”

As soon as he heard this, Tang Zhou was confused, this horse was scared before, what was he afraid of?

"Are you afraid?"

"Yes, this Bird and Mouse Mountain...... Bird and Mouse Mountain is haunted at night, if it weren't for the amount of money you give, and the small one is short of money, the small one would never dare to be this guide. ”

As soon as he heard that Bird and Mouse Mountain was haunted, Tang Zhou couldn't help but frown, he was an atheist, so he didn't believe that there were ghosts in this world, and the haunting of Bird and Mouse Mountain was just afraid that other people had ulterior motives.

"What's going on, tell Ben Hou in detail."

"Yes, yes, yes, the terrain of Bird and Mouse Mountain is extremely complicated, but there are also a lot of precious herbs or something in it, so many people have come here to dig medicinal herbs, but since three years ago, ghosts have begun to be haunted here, and many people who have come here to collect medicine have disappeared, and I heard those who fled back say that they met a ghost when they were collecting medicine, and the ghost was very scary, so scared that they couldn't eat for several days, and since then, few people have dared to enter this Bird and Mouse Mountain."

After listening to Ma Shiqian's words, Tang Zhou pondered for a moment, and then said to Ma Shiqian: "With my three thousand elite soldiers, there are ghosts and ghosts, you go to rest, continue to hurry tomorrow, leave this place as soon as possible, and then Benhou will reward you with the same copper coins." ”

When Ma Shiqian and his companions heard this, they were immediately overjoyed and responded again and again.

And just after the two guides left, Ma Qing said: "Little Hou Ye, don't you really think this place is haunted, right?" ”

Tang Zhou shook his head: "Do you think I seem to believe that there are ghosts in this world?" However, since someone is missing here, it is not particularly safe to come, so it is important for us to protect the princess, so let's send her to Linzhou City first, and the matter here will wait until Linzhou City. ”

Ma Qing bowed his head, and then went down to make some arrangements.

If today's incident spreads, it will definitely cause many people to panic, so he must ensure the rigor of this matter, only in this way, everyone will not be scared because of it.

People are very afraid of the unknown, but sometimes they don't know it, but they don't have anything at all.

At dawn the next day, everyone hurried to Linzhou City, so that they finally left Bird and Mouse Mountain for three days in a row, and after leaving Bird and Mouse Mountain, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

However, they walked for another day before they finally arrived at Linzhou City.

Linzhou City is an important road on the Silk Road, many merchants will stop here on the way to do business, and then set off again, and the arrival of these merchants makes Linzhou City very prosperous.

There is no doubt that where there are people, there are business opportunities, and as long as there are people, there is life here.

When Tang Zhou and the others entered Linzhou City, Ma Danian, the assassin of Linzhou City, who had already received the news, had already lined up at the gate of the city to greet him, Ma Danian was an old man in his fifties, very rich, and looked harmless to humans and animals.

As soon as Tang Zhou and the others arrived, he immediately greeted him: "Linzhou City Thorn Shi Ma Danian greets Her Royal Highness the Princess, the little marquis." ”

Tang Zhou nodded: "Lord Ma, Her Royal Highness the princess has traveled a long way, and it is a little hard, let's send her to rest first, Ben Hou has something to say to you, how about we go to the palace to discuss?" ”

Ma Danian didn't expect Tang Zhou to tell him about things as soon as he came, and his heart suddenly became very nervous, and the sweat on his forehead couldn't help but flow down, but after all, he was old and experienced, so he quickly calmed himself down and said, "The official of the post house has ordered someone to clean up, and Her Royal Highness the princess can move in at any time." ”

Tang Zhou nodded, and then asked someone to escort Princess Wencheng to rest, while he followed Ma Danian to the mansion to discuss the matter of Bird and Mouse Mountain.

But it was said that Princess Wencheng was escorted to the post house to rest on the way, but Princess Wencheng was a little uneasy, she looked at Xiao Zhao and asked: "What is the little marquis going to discuss with that Lord Ma, why do I think he seems to have something to hide from me?" ”

Princess Wencheng is a smart person, they suddenly accelerated their trip in Bird and Mouse Mountain, and they no longer stopped on the way, and they had no intention of appreciating the beautiful scenery of Bird and Mouse Mountain, which she saw in her eyes, and now she feels that something is wrong, it is too normal.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhao hesitated for a while, and finally had no choice, but he still told Princess Wencheng about the haunting of Bird and Mouse Mountain, and then said: "Little Hou Ye is afraid that you will be afraid and worried, so I won't let you tell you." ”

After hearing Xiao Zhao's words, Princess Wencheng was not angry, she just frowned slightly, and then said to Xiao Zhao: "I already know what you said, when the little marquis comes back from the mansion, you tell him and let him come to my room, I have something to tell him." ”

Xiao Zhao sighed and asked, "Your Royal Highness Princess, let the little marquis come to your room?" ”

"yes, what's the problem?"
