168. One hundred thousand mountains (thanks to @ Wind in the Messy Smile Diamond)
When I went up to the second floor, I found that compared with the hall on the ground floor, the layout of the second floor is elegant. In the middle of the square nearly 30 square meters, with a small bamboo row around a circle, put a few bamboo benches and bamboo tables, in front of the round arch, but also floated a blue silk flag, on which a huge tea word is written. Obviously, the farmer fenced this place and made it into a tea house.
Then the houses on the periphery are one by one, just by looking at the name of the sign on the door, you can know that it is a box. There was a door that was open, and the gloomy man was standing by the door, and when we walked over, we saw that Zhuang Yu and Jian Ningyi were already seated in the room, and the table was full of dishes. Sheng Shiyao pulled me in and sat in the seat, just opposite Zhuang Yu.
After the rest of the people were seated, I found that the man actually sat down after pouring a circle of wine, sitting in an empty position on Zhuang Yu's left hand, and Jian Ningyi naturally sat on his right. The round table was not big, just eight people sitting, four of us here, three of us there, I looked at the empty seat, the wine glass was full, and secretly said that it was the place reserved for the farmer? But this position has been dissolved until the bureau is dissolved, and no one has ever come to sit in it.
During the banquet, from Zhuang Yu's mouth, he learned that the man's name was Wuba, although he did not specifically introduce him, but it could be seen that this person was Zhuang Yu's right-hand man, maybe not as close as Yang Wenhao and him, but he was very trusting. Zhuang Yu's plan was to cross the 100,000 mountains of Qinzhou and enter Yunnan, because he brought more "equipment" and many vehicles, and the goal was too obvious to take the open road.
Knowing that this place is Qinzhou, it is only more than 100 kilometers from Beihai to Qinzhou, no wonder it only takes more than an hour to drive. Does that mean you have to walk out of the mountains after that? I still have the impression in my mind that the 100,000 mountains in Guangxi are quite famous, but the specific situation, because I have not been to this area in the past years, so I only heard of its name, and I don't know the details.
You Uba talked about how to go on the general route, about a few days of travel, and seeing that he was so familiar with each other, it seemed that he was a person in Guangxi. Sure enough, in the end, from his conversation with Zhuang Yu, he learned that his home was in the deep mountains of the 100,000 mountains. When I walked to the door, I suddenly turned my head with a feeling, and saw Zhuang Yu holding a wine glass and touching the glass on the empty seat next to him, and then drank it all, with a calm face. suddenly realized that the position was reserved for Yang Wenhao.
The owner of the farm arranged two adjacent rooms on the third floor for the four of us to move in, and after the people who led the way left, we all walked into the same room, Zhou Tong looked out at the end and came in and closed the door, and said in a low voice: "Brother Yao, it seems that they will not live on this floor, then Zhuang Yu should also make other arrangements, do you think we should take this opportunity to get rid of them?" "I was shocked, and I intuitively looked at Sheng Shiyao, did they really have such plans?
Sheng Shiyao shook his head calmly: "Zhuang Yu is not an incompetent person, since he dares to let go of the arrangement, he is not afraid." What's more," he glanced at me and said: "Cheng Qingping has never shown up, Zhuang Yu has left a hand behind, there are many people on this trip alone, even if we can successfully get out of this farm at night, we may not be able to escape his sight, and it is better not to fight the battle that is not sure." ”
I couldn't help but be silent, indeed my grandmother was what I was most worried about, Zhuang Yu asked her to go first when she returned to the sea, I thought I would be able to see it when I arrived at the shore, but as far as I learned from the inquiry just now, my grandmother had gone to the ancestral home of the family in Yunnan. The exact situation will have to wait until the meeting to know.
Zhou Tong felt that it was very reasonable, and he didn't make any more ideas, so I took the opportunity to ask them about the 100,000 mountains. I saw Zhou Tong patting his chest and saying, "Little sister, you have to ask me, my brother's head is a living map." ”
100,000 mountains, belonging to the southwest of Guangxi, from Guitai, Qinzhou City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in the east, to the Sino-Vietnamese border in the west, distributed in Qinzhou, Fangcheng, Shangsi and Ningming and other places. Because the mountains are continuous, the peaks and peaks overlap, and the points are innumerable, it is called the 100,000 mountains. The mountain range is northeast-southwest, with a total area of 2,600 square kilometers, it is the southernmost mountain range in Guangxi, the highest altitude is more than 1,400 meters, and it is also the main peak of 100,000 mountains.
Zhou Tong stopped talking about this, and Liuzi teased on the side: "Continue to make it up, see what else you can make up." Zhou Tong crossed his eyebrows: "Where did Lao Tzu make it up?" It's all fact-based information, okay? You kid is illiterate, except that you know more about computers than I do! The sixth son sneered unceremoniously, and was relieved to see that the two of them could play again.
They live another life, they have seen too much of the world, and they will not invest too much affection in people who are not companions, but the so-called human heart is flesh and blood, and the most difficult thing to control is also the human heart. Honestly, I like to see them laughing like that, rather than red-eyed and full of sadness.
Huang Shenjian only listened to Zhou Tong to make trouble with Sheng Shiyao: "Brother Yao, come on, what else did I miss about the 100,000 mountains?" ”
Sheng Shiyao hooked the corners of his lips slightly, and seemed to chuckle lightly, before he said slowly: "I have heard a legend, according to legend, a long time ago, this area was a flat land, and the locals offended the dragon king for some reason. After the heavenly gods learned of this, they rushed to the north and moved 100,000 mountains to block the sea, and along the way, he turned the mountain into an elephant to drive away, and finally the elephant that ran away became a large mountain range across the southern Xinjiang, that is, 100,000 mountains. ”
I listened to it and thought it was a little funny, "It's a myth, I can't do it for sure." ”
"Brother Yao, you're fooling us into playing." Zhou Tong shouted, but saw Sheng Shiyao raise his eyebrows and said: "The meaning of my story is not myths and legends, but refers to the particularity of this region, Guangxi and Yunnan both belong to the southern Xinjiang boundary, Zhuang Yu's reason for taking this road is probably not as simple as hiding his tracks on the surface." Also, Xiaoxiao, whether Cheng Qingping's ancestral home is in Yunnan, can you be sure? ”
I shook my head blankly, in fact, if it weren't for the fact that they said that my grandmother's witchcraft came from southern Xinjiang, I wouldn't have known these things.
"So I suspect that Zhuang Yu has concealed Cheng Qingping's matter, it is very likely that she is in a deep mountain of the 100,000 mountains at this moment, and there must be a hidden secret in this trip to the mountains. So don't be too careless and be careful. Especially in the mountains, there are many tropical jungles, and this road will not be too smooth. ”
In the end, Sheng Shiyao thinks about things more deeply than us, and these hidden things may be the truth to a large extent. Zhou Tong said in a low voice with a look of sudden realization: "No wonder there are several boxes of guys hidden on the car transporting equipment, I wondered before, isn't it just going to the bottom of a lake, how can it be like a march to fight." Looking at this situation, I want to do a big job. ”
Liuzi kicked him and asked, "How do you know how many boxes of guys are in the car?" ”
"Don't look at who your brother Zhou is, you stupid boy only knows red eyes, but I'm not idle. The boxes were put on the way from the funeral parlor to the cemetery, and they were put in the van, and there were five or six boxes in total. When we came back from the cemetery, didn't we walk around the car, I deliberately sniffed it, and the smell of gunpowder was strong. Looking back at when we were at sea, although the attack power of the fish arrows was not strong, they were all high-end weapons, and I even suspected that there were hidden in that batch of diving equipment. ”
I couldn't help but be shocked when I heard it, Zhuang Yu is really bold, no wonder he has to take the mountain road, once these things appear, it is not a small matter.
"Alright, it's getting late, go back to your room." Sheng Shiyao suddenly gave an eviction order, and when the two of them went out one after another, leaving only the two of us alone, he turned pale and stretched out his hand to me, "Xiaoxiao, come here." I walked up to him as he said, and was gently held by him, "Don't be afraid, I am here, you remember to follow me all the way." Looking up at him, he was now more and more keenly grasping my thoughts, and immediately perceived the worry and fear in my heart.
After hesitating, he asked the worry in his heart: "Is your injury healed?" "It's a topic I've never mentioned, but it's a boulder that weighs on my heart. Almost after returning from the Soul City, Sheng Shiyao's body was repeatedly injured, coupled with his own transformation, he never got better, and then due to the demonic invasion of the body, he repeatedly damaged the vitality and internal organs, fought with Zhuang Yu on Dian Island, and then used a spell to drain Ying Ning's soul in my body, almost exhausting his ability. When I was shipwrecked at the bottom of the sea, I engraved in my heart that he almost lost his lifeline and breathed, these injuries ...... Are you all right?
Sheng Shiyao raised his hand and gently rubbed the hair hanging down from my face, his eyes were gentle, "Don't worry, I'll be fine." ”
"No," I shook my head lightly, "you also said that this trip into the 100,000 mountains will be an uneven road, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to deal with, if you are really too seriously injured, why don't we consider the strategy of Zhou Tong before, find a way to leave quietly, don't take this risk?" As for Grandma...... We'll find another way to save her. "All roads lead to Rome, everything is a way, and there is always a way out.
But Sheng Shiyao said lightly: "No, I have already analyzed it just now, since we are here, Zhuang Yu will not give us a chance to leave." Moreover, I made a pact with him, going back to 2,000 years ago, it is true that the Dian Kingdom was destroyed because of me, and many things cannot be escaped. Yu's mind is not difficult to guess, what he is asking for is not money, I believe that after entering the 100,000 mountains, he will inform the purpose of this trip. As for my injuries......"
He paused at this point, turned his head sideways and stared at me, "That time I took away most of the soul qi that belonged to her in your body, which was a loss to you, but a benefit to me, with the help of your blood and qi, plus secret techniques to heal yourself, most of your vitality has been restored." So you don't need to worry too much. ”
For a moment, he stared at his eyes, trying to discern the truth of his words, but in the end he was defeated. The wind and waves were calm and there were no waves, not even a trace of flickering, and it was really difficult to get any information from his face or eyes. His fingertips scribbled wildly in his palm, and he asked, "Sheng Shiyao, don't lie to me again, okay?" ”
He fixed his eyes for a moment and whispered, "Hmm." ”
