Chapter 1057: An Old Man Who Died After Two Words

Chapter 1057 The old man who died if he said two words

Since Ding Laoba hadn't returned from delivering the news, Fang Yiai had to stay in the house and wait. During this period, Qin Wenyuan and Chen Wei came to visit, and now Qin Wenyuan is also the most powerful figure in Yangzhou, and that Su Fang is just a pretense. Fortunately, there are no princes and governors in Yangzhou, which also gives Qin Wen a lot less constraints. After a few months, Chen Wei's Pacific pirate group has become famous in the East China Sea, Fang Yiai came to Chen Wei, just hoping that Chen Wei can go to Goguryeo to make trouble, and it is best to intercept all the merchant ships of Goguryeo, especially those transporting grain, in short, Fang Yiai does not want Goguryeo to get a little food.

Now that it has been 16 years since Duzhenguan, if nothing else, the stupid guy of Rongliu Wang Gao Jianwu will be killed by Yuangai Suwen, and then Gao Zang will come to power. Back then, Gaozang also came to the Tang Dynasty with the envoy, and that guy was a little doll, and he made him the king of Goguryeo, isn't he just a puppet. Return the treasure king, according to the love of the house, the name is really appropriate, Gao Zang was dug up.

As soon as Su Fang, who came to pat on the back, Haitang walked in lightly, and when she entered the house, she didn't speak immediately, but whispered in the ear of Fang Yuai, "Childe, His Royal Highness King Wu has come down!" ”

As soon as he heard Li Ke appear, Fang Yiai was not surprised, with Li Ke's intelligence, it was impossible not to figure it out. Nodding to Haitang, Fang Yiai got up and went to the backyard, at this time Li Ke was walking around the house, as soon as he saw Fang Yiai, he smiled with a broken face, "Brother Jun, you are really a good plan, forcing my brother to come out to see you!" ”

"For Brother De, don't blame the younger brother, this is the safest way. Do you really think that your father doesn't know anything, I'm afraid that as soon as you leave the capital, he will know! ”

Li Ke frowned tightly. After a long time, he still said firmly, "Brother Jun, no matter what, I'm going to go and see what is buried there, if you don't agree, tie me up now, otherwise I'll still go." ”

Fang Yiai can understand Li Ke's mood, if he doesn't let him take a look at it in person, he will not be willing in this life. Just let him see. Is there bound to be a good outcome?

"For Brother De, you can see it if you want to, but you have to listen to the younger brother. Also, tomorrow there will be a banquet in the late spring building, and you will go with your little brother to meet the officials of Su and Yang! "Fang Yiai has already figured out how to do it. He just wants everyone to know that Li Ke is coming to Yangzhou.

Li Ke has no choice, he has to listen to Fang Yi's love now. sighed. He nodded heavily.

Three days later, Ding Laoba finally returned to Yangzhou, and what made Fang Yiai strange was that Ding Laoba was still holding an old man, who had gray hair and wrinkles on his face. Visually, he was over 90 years old. Fang Yiai took a closer look, and he found that the old man's left arm was missing, and he was limping when he walked. What the hell is Ding Laoba doing, isn't it a howling and crying mountain? How to get an old man.

"Old eight, what's going on, who is this old gentleman?" Fang Yiai just asked, Ding Laoba asked the old man to stand outside the door, and ran in with a smoke, "Young General, you guessed right, that Howling Ridge is probably Hongwen Peak." The old man's name is Jiao Shilang, and he was a captain of the Yingyang Army during the Kaihuang period, and he knew about the Liang being destroyed after that year, as well as the affairs of Hongwenfeng. ”

At first glance, Fang Yiai was really taken aback, if the old man was a Sui soldier who attacked Houliang during the Kaihuang period, then he would not be almost a hundred years old now? Looking at Ding Laoba, Fang Yiai asked in a low voice, "Old Ba, how old is this old man?" ”

"I don't even know the specifics, but according to the villagers of Nursery Village, this old man must be at least one hundred and ten years old!" Ding Laoba whispered, but Fang Yiai was speechless for a while, there are still people who have lived so long in the Tang Dynasty, and they are almost better than Sun Simiao.

After a few words of explanation to Ding Laoba, he helped Old Man Jiao in, maybe he was too old, Old Man Jiao's ears were not very bright, and he couldn't speak clearly, the most speechless thing was that the old man's official dialect also had a strong Quanzhou accent.

"Uncle, do you know Hongwenfeng?" Fang Yiai said almost close to the old man's ear, the old man was not too deaf, and said with a trembling mouth, "Hongwenfeng, you know, there are ghosts in that place, and the people sent by the general died in it that year, so they are alive, and they don't have any feet and arms!" ”

As he spoke, the old man Jiao burst into tears, this is too sudden, Fang Yi's love is a bit of a masterless, look at the old man's age, don't be suffocated in one breath.

After asking a word, he had to comfort the old man Jiao, and finally waited for the old man to stabilize before he dared to continue asking, "There are ghosts?" Uncle, how can this be? ”

"It's true, you haven't seen it, such a big fish, eating people, woo woo woo" just said half a sentence, the old man cried again, Fang Yiai was so depressed, he could ask a fart if he went on like this. I wanted to persuade again, but who would have thought that the old man's crying would stop abruptly.

Fang Yiai was obviously stunned, he looked at the old man and asked loudly, "Uncle?" Uncle? He shouted several times in a row, but the old man did not respond, he still maintained his original sitting position, his head hanging slightly, and his hair covering half of his face.

Ding Laoba was also curious, he reached out and poked the old man, but there was still no response, he put his finger under the old man's nose and tried it, he smiled bitterly, "Young General, the old man Jiao is dead"

"What? He's dead? What is this old man doing, he will not die sooner or later, but he will die at this time. And the eighth, you can't find a younger one, get a half-cut person to come over! Fang Yiai's face was not very good, I thought I could ask something, but I didn't get the good news, and there was a few bad news. The haunted Hongwen Peak, a big fish that eats people, what the hell is going on, where does the man-eating fish come from on the mountain, this is not in the sea.

"Young General, it's not that I don't want to, it's still a little luck to be able to find this old man Jiao. What should I do now, don't go to Wailing Ridge, Feng Shui Dogs are still waiting there! ”

"Go, since Wailing Ridge is Hongwen Peak, then there is no possibility for us not to go. Old eight, tell me about the specific situation of Wailing Ridge, let's be prepared! Two people were found and carried out Old Man Jiao's body. Fang Yiai was very worried, listening to what Old Man Jiao said, that Hongwenfeng is not a good place to go.

Ding Laoba thought about it. He arched his hand and said, "Young General, the little ones didn't dare to enter the Wailing Ridge, but from the outside, the Wailing Ridge was full of fog, and it was not clear what was inside. Moreover, the people in Gu Village said that the fog was poisonous, and people and animals would die if they entered. ”

Is it really poisonous? Fang Yiai is a bit out of line, and now the Tang Dynasty does not have closed masks and oxygen cylinders. It's a bit hard to get through the poisonous mist. I can't think of a good way, but fortunately, I don't want to, so let's wait until I get to the nursery village.

The next day, Fang Yiai led people to the nursery village. Ding Laoba led the way, and the group arrived at the nursery village at noon. As previously known. Nursery Village is a very small village. The houses are mostly wooden, and in some places there are buds. As soon as he found a place to sit down, Gou Baotong walked over.

"General Fang, according to small observations, this place is surrounded by mountains and rivers. In addition, the mountain here is in the shape of a long snake, and it goes straight into the Yangtze River to the south, which can really be said to be a tiger standing on the dragon plate, and the water and land follow each other" Gou Baotong said Feng Shui, and the wordiness was endless. "General Fang, look at it, on both sides of this mountain, there are hills on the left and right, which can be regarded as the double protection of the green dragon and white tiger!"

Fang Er Gongzi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, he didn't bother to listen to the left green dragon and the right white tiger, he was still an old cow on his waist. coughed, Fang Yiai said a little impatiently, "Yes, Mr. Gou, you have told Fang so much, and Fang doesn't understand, just talk about the fog, is there a way to get in?" ”

"This General Fang, the little one only knows how to find the dragon and fix the acupoint, and the others you ask the eighth child!" As soon as Gou Baotong finished speaking, Fang Yiai waved his hand and asked him to stand aside.

After resting for a while, Fang Yiai led Wu Cao and Wen Luo to find Ding Laoba, and at this time, Ding Laoba was squatting on the ground with a few people to discuss something. Fang Yiai squatted next to him and asked out loud, "Old eight, how is the situation, is there a way to get in?" ”

"Major General, there is a way, but it is more troublesome. We need to slowly cut down the trees on the periphery and burn them in with fire, and there is no better way to do it than that! "Ding Laoba has been engaged in the tomb robbery industry for many years, and he has never seen such a terrible fog. I put a dog in it before, and the dog died in less than a stick of incense, and the dog had no scars on its body, apparently poisoned by poison gas.

Burning with fire is a solution, but if it causes a forest fire, it is not very good. Ding Laoba probably saw what Fang Yiai was worried about, he spread a map on the ground and explained in detail, "Young General, you don't have to worry too much, the mountains here are narrow, and there are long mountain roads on both sides, even if you set fire, it will not affect the forests on both sides." ”

"Well, if you're sure, go ahead with the plan, anyway, before it gets dark tomorrow, I need to go into Wailing Ridge!" Fang Yiai also didn't want to interfere with Ding Laoba, when it came to digging people's ancestral graves, Ding Laoba was much better than someone in his room.

Xiao Mu'er sat alone in the tent with a fire, and when she saw Fang Yi's love and a few people coming back, she looked up and asked, "What's the matter, is there a way to enter the Wailing Ridge?" ”

"Yes, but slow down, you'll have to wait a while!" Fang Yiai sat for a while and called Qin Hu over, "Uncle Hu, you take Ran to the villagers' houses for a walk, so that everyone in the village can temporarily live down the mountain." Give them more money and save trouble! ”

"Yes, young master!" Qin Hu agreed, but the person stood still and didn't move, Fang Yiai wondered, "Uncle Hu, are you still in trouble?" ”

"No, it's just, this money" Qin Hu is not embarrassed, he doesn't have half a dime on him, and his love is also embarrassing, and he doesn't seem to have the habit of bringing money. Seeing the two big men staring at each other, Wu Cao smiled and took out a stack of tickets from his arms, counted the number, and stretched out his hand to hand it to Qin Hu, "Uncle Tiger, a total of two thousand yuan, it should be enough!" ”

Qin Hu took the money and flashed, Xiao Mu'er couldn't help but laugh, "Second son Fang, your habit of going out without money should be changed, fortunately, the girl in Haitang is more thoughtful, otherwise you will have to be a bad official today!" ”

"you, you're a bad official! By the way, who of you have inquired, how did this Wailing Ridge get its name, the name is weird! ”

"Hehe, you'll know by night!" Xiao Mu'er pretended to smile mysteriously, she didn't say it, Fang Yiai didn't bother to ask, anyway, it would be evening soon.

Ding Laoba led the people to cut down the trees, but they didn't dare to go too deep, for fear of being contaminated with poisonous gas, and after waiting to build a separation belt, they began to set fires. Now that spring has just begun, it is the time when the wind is strong, a little fire, it is burning, and from the nursery village, the whole forest seems to be on fire.

The fire was raging in front of him, but Fang Yiai didn't care much, he was thinking about what was going on in Wailing Ridge now, could there be a ghost screaming at night? Sometimes Fang Er Gongzi also admires himself, what do he want, when the sky is completely dark, he hears that the entire nursery village is filled with a whistling sound, and the sound is like hundreds of people crying.

Wailing Ridge, that's how it came about, but the difference between Hongwen Peak and Wailing Ridge is too big, right? (To be continued......)
