Chapter 103: Up the Mountain
The two of them walked up the hill along the rock-paved path.
After a while, I saw several low wooden houses, and there were a few people dressed as woodcutters sitting at the door of the wooden houses. ”
Xiao Li hurriedly handed over the name post.
The man took a look, then looked at Feng Lanyu and his party, and asked, "From the Marquis of Wenchang's Mansion?" ”
Feng Lanyu nodded.
The man returned the name card to Xiao Li and asked the people around him: "Yesterday, Mr. Zhang said that someone from the Hou Mansion came, I wonder if it is this family?" ”
The people around him: "Mr. Zhang only said the Hou Mansion, but did not say which Hou Mansion." ”
The two hesitated for a moment, thinking that since Mr. Zhang said that it was the Hou Mansion, it must be this one, and there were only a few Hou Mansions in the entire capital?
It can't be so coincidental, as soon as Mr. Zhang said the Hou Mansion, the Hou Mansion in the entire capital came, right?
Those people were all hired by Mr. Zhang's disciples, and their usefulness was, of course, to intercept uninvited people.
Since Mr. Zhang came to Shangshan to live in seclusion, Shangshan has become a must-visit attraction for the nobles in the capital, and there are always some people who come over with the mentality of chance encounters, just to be lucky enough to meet Mr. Zhang.
Feng Lanyu felt that with such a setting, Mr. Zhang was like a monkey in the zoo, and he had to make an appointment in advance to see him, and he had to check the ticket before entering the door.
Feng Lanyu felt that if Jiang Fengjin could succeed in apprenticeship, he would let him come to this cabin every day to sit and collect the admission fee, it was not a dream to get rich in one day, what else to test!
The two guards motioned for Feng Lanyu to go, but then pointed to the few maid guards behind her and said, "They can't go up, just wait here." ”
Feng Lanyu asked them to wait here, and he took Jiang Feng into the mountain.
The stone steps paved with stone on this mountain are not steep, but they are winding and winding, and I have not seen the thatched house where Mr. Zhang lives in the legend for a long time.
The grass and trees in the mountains are dense, it coincides with the late autumn, the colors of the trees in the mountains are colorful, red, yellow, and green, covering the mountains and wilderness, the scenery is a must, even if you can't see Mr. Zhang, it is good to come here and take a walk.
Feng Lanyu and Jiang Fengjin were both very thin, and they began to pant not long after walking, Feng Lanyu held on to the small tree on the side of the road and asked Jiang Fengjin: "Are you tired?" ”
Jiang Fengjin held a food box in one hand and a handkerchief in the other to wipe his sweat, and nodded: "Do you want the young lady to take a break?" ”
Feng Lanyu immediately sat down, stretched out his sleeves and began to wipe his sweat, without the appearance of a lady at all.
Jiang Fengjin silently put away his handkerchief, walked to the mountain stone next to Feng Lanyu and sat down.
The fallen leaves are very thick, Feng Lanyu took a branch, picked a few times at random, and suddenly asked Jiang Fengjin: "Ah, third brother, do you say that in this mountain, under this fallen leaves, will there be snakes?" ”
Jiang Fengjin stiffened for a moment, and his mind immediately remembered the two long worms that those people put on his bed when he was in the academy, and when he looked at the fallen leaves, he suddenly felt a tingling of his scalp.
He immediately scrambled to his feet from the ground and looked around warily.
Feng Lanyu was taken aback by his action, and turned her head to look at him: "What's wrong?" ”
Jiang Fengjin's face was slightly pale, and he said with an unnatural expression: "It's nothing ......"
Feng Lanyu looked at him suspiciously, and suddenly smiled: "You can't be afraid of snakes, right?" ”
Jiang Fengjin's expression froze.
Feng Lanyu was funny: "When I went out, I prepared deworming medicine for everyone, and asked the housekeeper to spray some realgar on everyone's clothes, don't you know?" ”
Jiang Fengjin knew about the medicine bag that was given to repel insects, but he didn't know if he sprayed realgar.
Feng Lanyu laughed at him: "I didn't expect that Brother Ku was also timid, and he was afraid of snakes." ”
Jiang Fengjin: "......"
He sat back next to Feng Lanyu and said in a muffled voice, "I'm not timid. ”
Listening to the sound is a little unpleasant.
The two rested for a while, and then continued to walk into the mountains.
After wearing the book, it was the first time to travel, it was rare to have such a leisurely time, Feng Lanyu was in a good mood, and began to talk: "Let me tell you, this Mr. Zhang is not a real hermit, the real hermit must live in a place that no one knows, live his own small life in peace, how can there be a person like him, live in Shangshan and let people know, but also guard the door, and repair the mountain road, I can't wait for people all over the world to know that he lives here, and they all come here to ask to see him." ”
Jiang Fengjin nodded while listening, Feng Lanyu said this, it seemed to make sense.
Feng Lanyu complained again: "It is said that the big is hidden in the city, and I don't know what is good about Mr. Zhang hidden in this mountain?" Chopping wood and grazing cattle every day, eating coarse tea and light rice, what is the joy of this, it is estimated that no one knows when it is taken away by a tiger! ”
Jiang Fengjin continued to nod, feeling that what Feng Lanyu said was very right, he didn't know when he was bitten to death by a long worm!
Feng Lanyu still wanted to complain, but he heard someone snort coldly, the two were startled, and when they looked back, they saw a thin old man dressed in gray cloth, with a gray turban wrapped around his head, and gray hair and beard, carrying a load of firewood and coming out of the woods next to the path.
The old man glared at Feng Lanyu angrily, and said angrily: "Ignorant woman! ”
Feng Lanyu: "......"
Jiang Fengjin: "......"
Okay, excuse me, they can turn around and go back now.
The old man carried the firewood, stepped forward quickly, and said angrily: "Get out of the way!" ”
Feng Lanyu and Jiang Fengjin were stunned and put aside.
The old man walked away with the firewood in a huff.
The two of them were left standing there for a moment.
Then, Jiang Fengjin said hesitantly: "Young lady, could that be Mr. Zhang?" ”
I heard that Mr. Zhang often wore cloth clothes to haunt the mountains, chopping firewood and grazing cattle, feeding chickens and growing vegetables, and people who didn't know him would think of him as a woodcutter.
Feng Lanyu felt that there was a chance that it would be, but what she just said seemed to have been heard?
Jiang Fengjin said again: "Why don't we go back?" ”
Judging by the attitude of the old man just now, they will probably be scolded when they catch up, so why bother.
Feng Lanyu can't wait to give himself a slap.
But Feng Lanyu never knew what her face was, since she had come and met her, she had to be entangled anyway, otherwise she would go back like this, and she would not work hard, she felt sorry for Wang Xinyue's sin.
Feng Lanyu suddenly roared: "Old gentleman stay!" ”
The voice was loud, Jiang Fengjin was so frightened that even the old man who was ten steps away was frightened by her angry roar, and almost fell.
The old man's face instantly turned like black charcoal.
I wonder where this wild girl came from, and how did she get mixed up!
Thinking like this in his heart, the old man also scolded: "What are you yelling here? Shows you have a loud voice, doesn't it? ”
Feng Lanyu hurriedly took the food box in Jiang Fengjin's hand, pulled him over, and said with a smile: "When I saw the old gentleman, I was excited for a while, and I didn't control it, if I scared the old gentleman, I can't help but say something here." ”
The old gentleman sneered: "Excited? Is it really because you see that I am old and suspect that I am deaf? ”
Feng Lanyu was still smiling: "How can it, Mr. He's childish, his spirit is shining, and he looks better than both of us." ”
Jiang Fengjin looked at the old man's face like pine bark, and then silently looked at Feng Lanyu.
Crane hair and childish face? Isn't this sycophant a little too unreal!
Obviously, the old gentleman was also extremely uncomfortable by her sycophancy, and his face darkened a little, feeling that he had finally met the fierce rival in his life.
