【049】The Jin family of Yatang Mountain
Duck Soup Mountain.
It is famous because a great nobleman was defeated in this mountain and committed suicide by drinking highly poisonous duck soup.
Later, the famous samurai family Jin family moved to Yatang Mountain, abandoned martial arts and became a farmer, specializing in duck breeding, and gradually became a well-known duck family.
Although there are many nobles who are secretly ashamed of what Jin Jia has done, as the Jin family has become stronger and stronger over the centuries, not many people dare to chew their tongues.
The men of the Jin family are all burly, with great strength, and amazing reaction speed, not only can they fight and kill on land, but they are also proficient in water warfare, if they don't know how to fly, they can dominate the sea, land and air.
Therefore, although the Jin family is not a nobleman, it is no different from the nobles, and their heirs often hold important positions in major cities, and there are dozens of generals alone.
The reason why the city lords dare to hand over the military power to the Jin family is because the Jin family has a family motto, children and grandchildren are not allowed to go out of the mountain before the age of twenty, and once they are over forty years old after leaving the mountain, they must return to Yatang Mountain and raise ducks for the rest of their lives.
This is a strange family, everyone spontaneously abides by the family motto, almost every descendant of the Jin family who went out of the mountain, and finally ended up unloading their armor and returning to the mountain, and never seized power and usurped the throne.
But because of this, the Jin family has stood tall for hundreds of years and is getting stronger and stronger.
......
In the forest, the flow of fleeing people from Mizuki Town advanced mightily.
Xiao and Su sat in the open-top carriage, and they could already see Yatang Mountain in the distance, and Cui Fu sat on a wooden box, telling the two of them the legend of the Yatang Mountain Jin family.
Because Mizuki Town is only a half-day walk away from Yatang Mountain, the slightly well-informed families in Mizuki Town know that there is a legendary family in Yatang Mountain, and as for the more specific situation, only a few people know about it.
And Trevort is one of them.
After all, he is the grandson of the mayor of the town, and he often has access to some of the petty nobles who come to visit or the merchants who serve the nobles, and these people often visit the Jin family after stopping in Mizuki Town and taste the Jin family's signature duck soup.
"It turns out that there is such a family. After listening to Cui Foer's introduction, Xiao couldn't help but sigh slightly.
Mt. Kamoyu is densely wooded and shaped like a cat lying on its stomach on the ground, and the smoke of cooking can be seen faintly in the dense woods, and scattered buildings emerge from the forest.
The group of people in Shuimu Town have been fleeing for most of the day, and from the beginning they would encounter wild beasts to now approaching Yatang Mountain, they are finally a little safer.
Owl and Trevor rescued people back, so Owl carried dozens of people and a bed, and his shoulder was seriously abrasive, he didn't feel it when he was saving people, and now it is difficult to relax and raise his hand, so he and Sa had to temporarily act with the people of Mizuki Town.
Mizuki Town is still a good place for people.
Because he was grateful for the contribution made by the two of them to Mizuki Town, a carriage was specially vacated for the two of them, but Trevor and his big fat snake also followed with dead faces, and confidently stated that he also participated in saving people.
"How far away is the Black Storm from us?" Xiao looked at Yatang Mountain, and suddenly changed his words, looked at Suo and asked.
Su immediately stood up, instantly flew high into the air and looked back, then fell back on the carriage, and replied, "The wind is not in our direction, and the black storm will not be able to catch up with us in a short time." ”
Fortunately, there was a stream of air coming from the other direction, temporarily blocking the Black Storm, otherwise they would have been in a more critical situation now, and even approached the Black Storm's reach.
"Owl, do you want to notify the Jin family in Yatang Mountain to take refuge?" asked Trevor suddenly with a little excitement.
If it was in the past, he would definitely not have had anything to do with the Jin family, but now that the black storm is sweeping, maybe he can contact the other party by notifying the other party, and by the way, see if the children of the Jin family are all big guys.
"Of course, although there is wind to block the Black Storm, the Black Storm will only slow down at best, and it is impossible to completely divert it. Xiao nodded.
Suddenly a drop of rain fell on his face, and he looked up at the sky, and more and more raindrops fell.
"It's raining. Trevor also looked at the sky and spoke.
Xiao's face changed slightly, and he said, "Look at the direction of the rain, has it turned?"
"Uh...... It seems to be. Trevor looked at the slanting raindrops, a little overwhelmed.
The wind has changed!
Xiao looked at Suo, who floated high in the air again, and when he rose, his body involuntarily floated in the direction of Yatang Mountain.
"Quick, let's everyone pick up the pace, the wind has changed!" Owl reacted and immediately shouted to Trevor.
Trevor also realized the consequences of the change in wind direction, his face changed and he immediately got up and jumped out of the carriage, and ran forward quickly, shouting as he ran: "Hurry, hurry, hurry, the wind direction has changed, the black storm will speed up, we must speed up, otherwise we will be caught up by the black storm, quick!"
When he rushed to the front of the line and saw the old mayor who was holding a child and coaxing, he immediately opened his mouth to yell, but was covered by the old mayor's hand.
"Your voice is so loud, I hear it. The old mayor said in a deep voice.
Trevor whispered, "That's not a hurry." ”
"The Jin family is in front, and when we pass, the sky will fall and there will be a tall man on top, what are you afraid of?" the old mayor smiled.
Trevor was surprised: "Old man, do you know someone from the Jin family?"
"Jin Dingtian, the current head of the Jin family, is my friend, don't worry, no problem. The old mayor laughed.
Cui Fu was still worried, and said, "What if the Jin family can't stand it?"
"Okay, old five, speed up. The old mayor thought about it, and felt that what Cui Fu said was right, the Jin family was indeed very powerful, but the black storm was also a catastrophe that was rare for decades, and it was really hard to say whether the Jin family could withstand it, so he commanded the groom next to him.
The groom immediately flicked his whip, and the carriage immediately ran forward, leaving the trotting Trevor behind at once.
The carriage at the front accelerated, and the carriage behind followed suit, and Trevor was constantly thrown off by the carriage, until finally when the carriage came over, he let out a loud shout, grabbed the edge of the carriage with both hands, and jumped on the carriage.
He wiped the rain from his face, looked at Xiao and Suo who were holding an umbrella, and said, "I didn't expect the old man to know the head of the Jin family, I suspect that he deliberately took this path to defect to the Jin family." ”
"In the face of a natural disaster like the Black Storm, what role can the Jin family play?" said Xiao frowned.
Cui Fu shook his head and said, "I don't know, maybe the Jin family has any way, let's trust the old man's judgment for the time being." ”
Dozens of minutes later, the carriage stopped at the foot of Mt. Kamoyu, and under the dense woods of Mt. Kamoyu there was a gate resembling the torii gate of the island shrine, and behind the gate was a stone road that stretched all the way to the mountain.
In front of the gate, two burly men in leather armor were armed with weapons, and when they saw the carriage stop, one of them came forward to ask, and then turned sharply and went up the hill in a hurry.
After getting out of the carriage, Owl and Sa and Trevor first thanked the owner of the carriage, and then walked to the front of the line to meet the old mayor with the child in his arms.
"Old man, the people of the Jin family can really stand it? He is not as tall as me. Trevor stepped forward to glance at the guards standing at the gate, and asked in a low voice as he felt that the other party was not as tall as himself.
The old man glared at Cui Fu fiercely, and said lightly: "Don't talk nonsense, people's ears are smart." ”
"It doesn't matter, this brother is indeed burly. The doorman smiled, apparently hearing Trevor's questioning.
Trevor's height, if placed on Earth, is taller than all basketball superstars, and he is not only tall, but also very strong at the same time, that is, when he encounters a person like Xiao Hesa who has stepped into the transcendent world with half a foot, he can suppress him at the physical level.
In the past, he was invincible in Mizuki Town, and even those noble hunting teams that passed by did not beat him in pure competitive strength.
However, he was still a little embarrassed to be heard whispering in front of others, smiled at the guards, showed kindness, and then became honest.
Xiao and Su laughed and said nothing, and they both noticed that the guards were abnormal.
The heartbeat and the sound of speech are different from ordinary people.
The guard's heartbeat was more powerful, there was a feeling of beating a drum, and when he spoke, his voice was more mellow, and there was a sense of neutrality.
If an experienced person gets this information, he can definitely judge that this guard is a practitioner, but his kung fu is not bad.
However, Xiao and Suo are inexperienced, so they can only judge that this guard is not simple, but they can't determine his strength.
After waiting for about ten minutes, suddenly the ground shook, as if an elephant was coming down the mountain.
Everyone became nervous, but the old mayor looked at the direction of the distant voice with a wistful expression.
A big fat man came running wildly, a fat old man to be precise, not only with gray hair, but also with a long white beard, all of which was tied into braids, and kept shaking as he ran.
"Brother Cui Lan, long time no see, hahahahahaha. When the fat old man saw the old mayor, he immediately laughed loudly, and his voice was as loud as a bell, and the ears of the people around him were buzzing.
The old mayor covered the child's ears and said with a smile: "Brother Jin, long time no see!"
At this time, the fat old man's entourage hurriedly chased after him, all of them sweating on their foreheads, and they were tired.
The fat old man was about to run to the gate before he gradually slowed down, and finally stopped in front of the gate, just feeling far away, and when he ran closer, everyone realized that he was really big.
Tall, huge!
The owl slowly looked up, and saw that the fat old man was at least five meters tall and four meters wide, and he was almost fat.
Is this really the height that a normal person can grow?
"Hahaha, Brother Cui Lan, are you here with your family to join me? I said a long time ago that you should move to Yatang Mountain to retire, that poor and remote small place in Shuimu Town, what is there to be nostalgic for, you also know my figure, if I go to Shuimu Town to find you for a drink, what if I am scared to death?" the fat old man said happily.
The old mayor smiled bitterly: "No matter what you say, Shuimu Town is also the place where I was born and raised, I really can't leave it, but this time I really have no choice but to take refuge in Brother Jin." ”
"Why, who bullied you?" the fat old man immediately asked with a dark face and anger when he heard this.
The old mayor shook his head and said, "It's not a question of who bullies whom, it's a natural disaster, and the black storm is coming!"
"Black Storm !!!" When the fat old man heard this, his frightened beard immediately stood up.
