The mountains and rivers are treacherous.

For a long time, it was a bare mountain of rocks, barren and terrifying, and only the most ferocious beasts dared to haunt it.

Perhaps the killing of fourteen years ago was so heavy that blood poured into the ground, and the bones rotted into the mud, nourishing the barren mountain.

There are also unknown birds that have brought in tree species from nowhere.

After more than ten years of wind and rain, this black mountain, which was once full of mountains and rocks, began to have the image of the world, grass grew in the cracks of the stones, and grapes, purple persimmons, and red pomegranates grew in the rocky fields.

There are also a few pear trees that wilt and are thin because of the water and soil.

The second uncle, Jin Zhuming, died in this mountain.

At that time, the adults of the Jin family were all on the battlefield, and he was only ten years old, and he traveled thousands of miles with his two cousins to Yuzhou to collect the body of his second uncle. Three children who have not grown up circled in the dangerous mountain road, and I don't know how many divergent paths they have walked for days and nights, and finally found here.

In that battle, Jin Zhuming took off the largest den of the blood-killing flag in Yuzhou, killed the banner owner, and annihilated more than 20 cadres under him, with more than 100 disciples.

But Jin Zhuming and his seven warriors did not get out of this chaotic mountain in the end.

The Great Blood Banner comes from a very evil tribe called the Yin Face Clan, and legend has it that after death, if the body is not well kept and the face is damaged, the soul cannot return to its hometown.

When he and his cousin found the second uncle, many days had passed, and the corpses all over the mountains were pecked by vultures, and they recognized him by the "washing" knife in the second uncle's hand.

I hope that the soul of the second uncle will stay here from now on.

Don't go back to the Jin family, don't go to Chang'an, to see that heartbreaking conspiracy.

The second uncle died as a hero on the battlefield to protect his family and defend the country, and more Jin family members died from the cold arrows of their own people, and died of jealousy and suspicion because of this heroic feat.

died in such a wreck, just like the general who did not shroud his body in horse leather, but died at the hands of a traitorous Xiaoxiao.

Jin Yanchen stood tall in the pile of rocks, picking grapes with a pair of scissors.

The rocks in this area grow very peculiarly, like a series of door frames with wide openings: there are pillars on both sides, rafters on the top of the head, and they are naturally connected by arches, which become a good place for grapes to lead vines.

The grapes ripened well in midsummer, and were dotted in bunches of green serrated leaves, like purple-red agate interspersed together.

"Click", "click", the sound of scissors.

The whipping behind him continued, but he never heard the shouts for mercy, not even a soft snort.

"Let's stop." He said lightly.

Qingxiu walked over and held the bamboo basket full of grapes in both hands.

Jin Yanchen threw the scissors and walked towards Xiang Limo.

The June sun was bright, shining on the stones, and the stones were shining with a white light, and the Black Mountains were bright. But the scorching sun's rays shone on him, but he lost his sense of warmth, and the blacker his clothes became, and there was an indescribable gloom and coldness.

He is no longer the sunny boy of Chang'an City.

Xiang Limo was on his knees with his hands tied, and he could only see the corners of his dark black robe. "Six...... Son. He cried out weakly.

Jin Yanchen squatted down patiently.

Half an hour passed, and Xiang Limo was beaten all over his body and was dying, but he gritted his teeth and refused to say a word, just to see him.

In fact, who said it was different?

In the world, everyone has suffering, and it may not be possible to be forgiven in person.

"You released the false letter eagle?"

Jin Yanchen's voice is very good, magnetic and heavy, but not moving. The voice was cold, and there was no doubt in the tone, just a statement.

Without ironclad evidence, he would not have let Xiang Limo be arrested.

It was a dead man written on a parchment scroll, deciphered by his own hand, and unearthed by himself. It was the old man of the Jin family who began to cultivate when his grandfather was alive and decided that he would not betray.

Xu Younan is very shrewd, but he has a weakness, and he has a very strong special feeling for the few old people of the Jin family who survived the tragedy.

Xu Younan trusted Xiang Limo, so he handed over this important errand to him, asked him to domesticate the letter eagle, and passed on the letters and codes of more than six Ming Palaces and the palace masters.

Who would have thought that this honest old man would rebel? If Qu Ya hadn't escaped back with all his life, this deeply hidden enemy stake would have continued to exert his effectiveness and kill more people.

"Yes." The tough guy shed tears.

"How did Mu Cangping give you instructions?"

This is where the most puzzling thing begins.

This stronghold that once killed the blood flag was hidden and difficult to find, and he was not a gullible person, as soon as he entered the mountain, he blindfolded everyone, and then blocked the entrance and exit. Except for him and the three elders, no one knew where they were, couldn't get out, and couldn't receive messages from the outside.

If Mu Cangping could accurately send an order to Xiang Limo, why didn't he directly find out the location and kill him up the mountain with a sword?

"No... Command. I looked for an opportunity to release the letter eagle, and he had a translation. ”

Jin Yanchen understood.

Mumen was pervasive and obtained a translation of the letter eagle code. Xiang Limo released an unknown eagle, and the eagle flew to Mu Cangping, who taught it new instructions and released it to search for Qianyu and Qu Ya.

In order to ensure safety, almost all Shinying is not going back. This also leads to a large amount of communication, or when there are casualties in the letter eagle, it is necessary to use the raw eagle to communicate. This matter is accustomed to it, and it will not arouse the vigilance of Qu Ya and others.

As for why Mu Cangping was able to control the letter eagle, of course, it was the credit of Xiang Limo.

"How many people's translations are there?"

"I don't know."

Jin Yanchen laughed dryly and looked up at Xu Younan.

Xu Younan sighed with a smile, he didn't feel too annoyed that he didn't use people properly, and continued to peel off peanuts and eat them.

But he was afraid in his heart: he still kept a hand and did not hand over the ugly eagle that could only lead the way to Xiang Limo to dome.

Otherwise, the consequences are unimaginable.

“…… I didn't think about harming the six princes," Xiang Limo said: "As long as there are three seats, six seats, two palace masters of heaven and earth, and the heads of any two people—two are enough." ”

Jin Yanchen half-squatted in front of Xiang Limo, his elbows on his knees, his eyes down and he didn't speak.

It's no wonder that Xiangli Mogan took the risk, Qu Ya and Qianyu were in one place, just enough to get the two heads together.

This kind of opportunity is not available all the time.

As for doing this, what benefits Xiang Limo can get from Mu Cangping, I'm afraid it is also the reason why he has to see himself before he dies.

Jin Yanchen wasn't really interested.

The reason why he was willing to come was that there were unsolved mysteries, and secondly, it was also because Gu Nianxiangli's family had worked for Kinmen for many years.

“…… Xian'er's husband was an alcoholic and always beat him. The whole village looked down on her, saying that she was born of an ungrateful white-eyed wolf...... She's been crazy for three years, even if she's crazy, and those people haven't stopped insulting her...... I, the father, have hardly done anything for her, I just want to take her away and have someone take good care of her for the rest of my life. ”

Jin Yanchen was silent.

Some of the dead in Kinmen had families before they volunteered to become dead soldiers.

They each follow their wishes: like Yun Xiaoyi, hide their identities and live the life of ordinary people, waiting for one day to be awakened; There are also those who do not want to be found out after waking up and implicate their families, so they break up prematurely and go to dangerous places alone.

Xiangrimer falls into the latter category.

The Xiangli family, like the families of other deceased soldiers, accepted the care of the Kim family. Anonymous, not making a book, confused with hundreds of poor and weak households who have been helped, this list is only secretly recorded in Jin Zhenyue's heart, and passed on to the next head of the family after his death, and no second person will know about the living, so it is naturally difficult to find out.

Mu Cangping's ability to dig into people's privacy is simply terrifying.
