The mountains were filled with thick fog, and there was a grass shed standing in the col, and Su Yun could be vaguely seen sitting quietly under the grass hut in the haze, looking at the lonely mountains, his eyes were full of fear

Li Zhilian walked into the grass shed and said softly: "Do you regret coming here with me?" ”

Su Yun lowered his head, the veil on his hat covered his face, and he couldn't see his expression clearly: "I~ I just feel ......"

Li Zhilian threw the dry food in his hand in front of Su Yun, sat aside and sneered, "What do you think?" I don't think I should have killed them~ or think I'm going to kill you when you're not looking"

Su Yun shook his head violently and said, "It's not~ It's not like this~ I can understand you killing them, I'...... I just think you're still so young~ and I don't seem to be able to see you more and more clearly......"

Li Zhilian chuckled and said, "Have you forgotten that I grew up in Zhongluan City?" What Zhongluan City is like, you should have heard of it! As for you can't see me clearly~ We don't seem to know each other very well! ”

Su Yun thought of the appearance of Zhongluan City that his teacher told him when he was a child, that sin city, there is no imperial power in it, there is no system, and force is the only decisive value, he raised his eyes and looked at Li Zhilian and figured it out, and immediately moved to Li Zhilian's side and said, "Then where do we go next?" ”

Li Zhilian frowned and said in his heart: This person's face changed really quickly, wiped his mouth and said: "I want to go and see the lake that Xu Lin said, my intuition tells me that it should be the origin of all this, but it may be a little dangerous, you cowardly and don't want to die, do you want to go out first~"

Su Yun felt that Li Zhilian's words had greatly insulted his personality, and immediately jumped up and shouted: "I am also a member of the Western Zhou Kingdom ~ the Western Zhou Dynasty, and I am obliged to contribute to the country, although I will not regret ...... death."

Li Zhilian gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, forcibly pulled Su Yun down and sat down with anger, and after carefully observing the surroundings to make sure that there was no one nearby, he gritted his teeth and said: "I know that you are from the Western Zhou Kingdom, but can you be quieter and shout so loudly~ Do you want to die here to feed mosquitoes?" ”

Su Yun, who knew that he had caused trouble, bowed his body, sat obediently on the side and gnawed on dry food, not daring to look at Li Zhilian again.

Li Zhilian walked out of the grass shed, looked up at the sky, it was gray and couldn't tell the time at all, so he had to go back to the grass shed and discuss with Su Yun: "The miasma here is too dense to see the hour, if we set off now tonight, we may sleep in the wild tonight, but if we want to stay here for one night, I'm afraid our bodies won't be able to bear it for so long, and this miasma is also quite poisonous!" ”

Su Yun held his forehead and said, "Let's get out of this ghost place quickly!" I just took off my mask and took a few breaths of miasma when I was eating, and now I have a splitting headache and my mind is a little confused......"

Li Zhilian said while carrying the burden: "Then hurry up and set off!" As long as you get out of this basin, the miasma shouldn't be so thick."

Su Yunleng said: "What is a basin?"

Didn't the word basin appear in ancient times? Li Zhilian scratched his head and explained: "It's all surrounded by high mountains, and the place where it's low in the middle is called a basin."

Su Yun pondered, and suddenly shouted like a big realization: "I~ I know......"

Li Zhilian raised his leg and kicked Su Yun's thigh fiercely and said, "Do you want to die?" ”

Su Yun was carrying two sets of leather clothes on his back, and he couldn't walk steadily, and Li Zhilian kicked him directly to the ground

Su Yun got up indifferently, and whispered with a smile on his face: "I know~ I know the cause of this miasma." Ninsse Village is surrounded by high mountains, and the smell of those dead people can't be dispersed, so they can only hover in the mountains, and over time they will become what they are now, so as long as we climb out of this basin, we will be safe, right? ”

Li Zhilian smiled: "The son can be taught, but it's still a little short."

Su Yun said in a deep voice unconvinced: "Which point?" ”

Li Zhipian said: "How do you know that we are safe when we go out, in case we happen to run into one of their nests or a patrol den, how many can you fight?" ”

Su Yun waved his fist a few times and said, "If it's all like the two of them just now, I'll have no problem fighting ten at a time."

Li Zhilian raised his eyes and said sarcastically: "Then what if it is their lair?" ”

Su Yun patted Li Zhilian's shoulder and said, "Isn't there still you?"

Li Zhilian shook off his hand and said, "I don't know martial arts, I can only kill."

Su Yun stiffly tugged at the corners of his mouth, squeezed out a smile and said, "What you said is right, I listen to you~Listen to you~"

Outside the gate of Nahe County, Shen Zhitang sat quietly in the wooden shed and pondered, Li Jianqing came over and shouted: "Teacher~"

Shen Zhitang raised his head and said, "Seeing that you are here, you are tired~ Come and drink tea first"

Li Jianqing picked up the tea on the table, took a sip and said: "The students asked more than a dozen people from Nahe County, and the younger ones have never heard of a fish mouth lake in the mountains, only two older old people have heard that there is a holy lake in the mountains, but it is located on the border of the Western Zhou Kingdom, and no one has ever been there."

Shen Zhitang stood up and walked out of the wooden shed and said, "Oh~ That Yuzui Lake is located on the border of the Western Zhou Kingdom, which is a bit difficult!" ”

Li Jianqing said with a smile: "Teacher, don't be anxious~ Isn't the border of the Western Zhou Kingdom here Xisha County?" And just now the old man didn't also say that he was from Xisha County, and Xisha County is not part of the Western Zhou Kingdom now."

Shen Zhitang said with a satisfied smile on his face: "You go and prepare, and we will set off for a trip to Yuzui Lake in a while."

After Li Jianqing saluted and retreated, Shen Zhitang summoned Shen Qiu again: "The officials of Xilin City should arrive tonight, and when the time comes, you will tell them that I will go to the two villages of Guhe ~ Gushan to investigate, at least one or two days, and at most three or four days will be back, after explaining to Sima to deal with the affairs of Nahe County, he will go back to Xilin City to wait for me, you give this letter to Sima, and during my absence, the size of Xilin City will be handled by him first, and if you can't handle it, wait for me to come back."

Shen Qiu took the letter into his arms and replied, "I know my lord."

Shen Zhitang looked around and wondered, "What about Xu Sen?" ”

Shen Qiu smiled and whispered in Shen Zhitang's ear: "He just said that he was sleepy, so I arranged for him to rest in the carriage."

Shen Zhitang nudged Shen Qiu's head and said, "Hurry up and call him, don't disturb Xia Gongzi's rest."

Shen Qiu said: "Don't worry, adults~ I sent someone to guard it, they said that they couldn't escape my ears."

Shen Zhitang shook his head helplessly and said, "Don't go soon~"

Xu Sen pulled a stinky face and bowed to Shen Zhitang: "My lord~ What are you looking for me?" ”

Shen Zhitang smiled and said, "What's wrong?" Pulling a face"

Xu Sen said indignantly: "It's not the person in the carriage, I just want to go in and sleep, and he still has three chapters of the law with me, one is not to touch him, the second is not to make a sound, and the third is not to snore"

Shen Zhitang laughed and said, "Then why did you endure it?" ”

Xu Sen immediately softened and sneered: "It's not that the mouth of eating people is short, the hands of taking people are short, not to mention that I am still a prisoner of another country."

Shen Zhitang said: "I didn't expect you to be a hunter, and you are so proficient in human sophistication."

The expression on Xu Sen's face changed, and he immediately smiled: "Sometimes if you are lucky, you will catch more prey, and you will sell it to some rich and noble people, and you will do it as many times as you go." By the way~ What are you looking for me, my lord? ”

Shen Zhitang said with a smile: "I almost forgot, I want to go to Yuzui Lake, I bother you to take the way"

The corners of Xu Sen's mouth twitched slightly, and he immediately changed into a look of embarrassment and said: "If you start from this place and ride a horse, you can only go to the foot of Gushan Village, and everyone else has to climb the mountain on foot."

Shen Zhitang asked, "How much schedule does it take?" ”

Xu Sen replied: "It will take two days to reach Yuzui Lake at the earliest, and this is still under the condition that no accidents will occur."

Shen Zhitang put his hands behind his back and counted the time in the same place: "Then when you come back, can you have a shortcut back to Xilin City?" ”

Xu Sen pondered for a while: "Walking the road in Niisei Village can save half a day's journey"

Shen Zhitang nodded and said, "Hmm~ You go and clean up first, and if you need to take anything, tell Shen Qiu"
