Chapter 0647: Bonfire Couplet

"Yangcheng Jinwei?! I know that I used to go with a caravan to Yangcheng in Chongguo, where the royal family lived, and the soldiers in the city were divided into three classes. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Shang Tianlin said at this time: "The lowest level is the 'Guardian Guard', who is in charge of guarding the four gates of the royal city, patrolling in the city, etc., and the second level is the 'Golden Guard', who is responsible for the security of the inner city of the royal capital, and is the 'bodyguard' of all royal families with great power, and the highest level is the 'Co-Lord's personal guard', which is specially subordinate to the deployment and command of the Co-Lord, but its whereabouts are secret, and ordinary people basically can't see it." ”

Speaking of this, Shang Tianlin paused slightly, she took the sign in Guan Heng's hand and looked at it a few times, and then continued: "This token of Chongguo Jinwei seems to be real, the original owner either lost this brand, or was poisoned by the bandits, so that the other party seized this thing. ”

"I see, then I'll keep this brand, maybe it will be useful in the future." As soon as Guan Heng's words fell, he casually picked up the Jinwei token, and at this moment, a dog's voice suddenly came from outside the warehouse: "Hey, are you planning to live inside?" Still not out yet? ”

"It's coming, it's coming." Guan Heng and others called back the elephant snake bird and mountain rays that continued to frolic and stayed overnight on the main peak Dazhai, and the next day, everyone had breakfast, and then began to pack up and continue on the road.

"After passing the Juelong Gorge, go around until you reach the back of the pit of ten thousand remains, and that is the path to continue north."

Shang Tianlin said at this time: "There are two roads that can lead to the Weishui tribe of Songguo Mountain, one of which has to pass through the steep and difficult 'Panling Mountain', and the other is a flat path, but we have to pass through the Baiyuan River, there is no ferry on that river, we need to cut down trees and raft to cross it, let's say, where is the right place to go?" ”

Ah Gou said without hesitation: "Panling Mountain! ”

So Guan Heng, who just wanted to say that he wanted to go to Baiyuan River, had to swallow back what he was about to say, but he asked curiously: "Brother Dog, why do you propose to go to Panling Mountain, is there a special reason?" ”

"Nope." Ah Gou said solemnly: "But if you pass by the river, we will have to eat fish for lunch, I like to eat meat recently, and I can't see the smell of fish." ”

"Uh......" Hearing this, Guan Heng and the other two almost fell to the ground, and in the end they had to shake their heads with a wry smile and agree to Ah Gou's suggestion.

……

After a short while, Guan Heng stood in front of the two forks in the road and sighed and said: "I really convinced Brother Dog, but he guessed it, and now we don't have a chance to go to Baiyuan River even if we want to." ”

In front of him, the fork in the road leading to the direction of Baiyuan River has long been tightly blocked because of the torrents that have been swept down by heavy rain, and there is no gap to turn over.

"Then let's go to Panling Mountain." Shang Tianlin said with a smile on the red horse: "Although the mountains and forests are steep, but with two elder brothers to protect me, I will not be afraid." ”

"Hehe, your little mouth is really sweet......" Guan Heng had just said this, when he saw several big carts coming not far in front of him, loaded with some goods such as rice, grain, cloth and silk, and a few people who looked like merchants were hurrying with him.

"Guys, it's been a hard journey." Guan Heng saw the other party walking in at this time, so he hugged his fists and smiled: "Are you from Panling Mountain?" ”

"Yes, little brother, you also want to go to Panling Mountain?" A middle-aged merchant smiled and said, "If you rush over now, maybe something good will happen." ”

Hearing this, Shang Tianlin immediately became interested, and she asked, "Uncle, what good things will we encounter?" ”

"Oh, there are a few small tribes in Panling Mountain, and every year at this time, they will jointly hold a grand 'bonfire duet party'."

The middle-aged merchant said with a smile: "That scene is lively and fun, and the hospitable tribal people will keep the passing travelers to participate together, invite them to eat and play together, I participated in the live once last year, and I still remember it vividly, but today I was in a hurry to deliver the goods and had to miss it, you can go and see." ”

After listening to the other party's words, Guan Heng was stunned: "Bonfire duet song?" ”

After sending off a few merchants, Shang Tianlin and Ruotao immediately said, "This bonfire will sound very interesting, how about we go and participate in it?" ”

Ah Gou touched his chin and smiled: "If I can eat a big meal, I have no opinion." ”

"Okay, now that the three of them are in favor, if I say 'no', won't you make a fuss?" Guan Heng smiled slightly at this time: "Okay, let's hurry up and rush to the 'Qicaiping' of Panling Mountain, where the bonfire duet will be held, before dark." ”

"Okay." The group happily walked towards the direction of Panling Mountain, but no one expected that Panling Mountain was about to fall into a huge crisis at this time.

……

When Guan Heng and the others continued to hurry, they had already found that there were more and more men and women wearing colorful costumes and dressing up on the road, and they all wanted to participate in the bonfire duet in Qicaiping.

And when everyone on the road saw this pedestrian, they were all amazed: the tall and sturdy A dog, the instrument Yu Xuanang, Guan Heng riding the Ghost Devouring Tiger, Ruo Tao wearing a half-gold leaf mask, and Shang Tianlin riding a red horse, as well as elephant snakes and birds, sharp-billed mountain rays, can be called strange, beautiful and ugly.

There were a lot of people on the road, and Guan Heng soon started talking with a young man named Wu Lin who lived in a nearby village, and learned a lot about the bonfire duet song meeting from the other party.

It turns out that the tribes near Panling Mountain have a special reason for holding this bonfire. More than 100 years ago, Panling Mountain was poor and bad, and there were very few people living here, and later the small tribes who moved here because of war and famine gradually increased.

However, Panling Mountain has been a place where demons and ghosts are rampant since ancient times, and people from small tribes rarely go out at night, for fear of encountering a ghost raid and being poisoned.

The ghosts, who originally only dared to wander around at night, seemed to have been stimulated by some kind of stimulation, and became even afraid to come out to hang out during the day, and after capturing the living, they devoured flesh and viscera raw, stirring up panic in several nearby villages day and night.

Later, the patriarch of a village came up with an idea to let all the young people of the village gather in one place, light countless bonfires near the Qicaiping of Panling Mountain, where ghost activities are most rampant, and continue to roar loudly, using the momentum of a large number of living people to deter ghosts, so that they dare not come out and wantonly harm people.

In general, the effect of this idea is still good, and after the bonfire party, the number of ghosts and people harming people has decreased a lot, so the tradition has been maintained, and it has evolved into today's bonfire song party, which has become a grand event for young men and women in the neighborhood to get to know each other and sing to each other.

Guan Heng asked Wu Lin at this time: "Then, is there still a ghost thing eating people nearby?" ”
