Chapter 20: The Devil's Trail
It was very difficult to walk the rivers and lakes, and in those years, I walked slowly and leisurely on the road by walking or riding a horse and riding a horse-drawn carriage.
Speaking of romance, in fact, the boat is tiring, and the only thing that can be tossed is the car and the road, but there is no place for waves, only slow.
When Shi Yu and his party began to leave, they were still excited, but after they really walked for three or five days, they began to feel bored.
No matter where you go, you are walking, passing through villages and towns, or there is a dense flow of people, but most of the time it is deserted, and the weeds are even frightening, who knows what unreasonable beasts are hidden in the grass that is tall for this person? Several Huashan disciples have already been bitten by poisonous snakes and wild beasts.
There was no insurance for those who ran the rivers and lakes that year, and the accident of being bitten by poisonous snakes and beasts could only be regarded as their own bad luck, anyway, people followed the team all the way, and the safety was one more guarantee, like Shi Yu was the general leader of this twenty or thirty person team, Ling Hu Chong was the deputy, and An Zihao and the Xiong brothers were also old rivers and lakes in this plane, and they were arranged to the left and right flanks of the team to maintain and respond.
More than 30 people set out from Shaanxi, took Henan, went north to Hebei, crossed Songshan and ran to Heng Mountain, and the ultimate goal was to kill the Heimu Cliff in Jizhou. While walking, you have to inquire, some strange things on the rivers and lakes, everything about the Black Wood Cliff can be inquired, this most primitive method, get a very good conclusion.
"For thousands of years, dominate the rivers and lakes." The headquarters of Heimu Cliff, now under the undefeated control of the East, is growing day by day, through the branch outlets of the Huashan faction in various places, such as individual dart stores, the people in there give clear information: they are too rampant, a black man. Dao, he dared to directly play the Jianghu Spring Festival of "Thousands of Years and Dominate the Rivers and Lakes", which shows that he not only directly despises the entire peers, but also intends to oppose the imperial court.
Besides, it was a big taboo to say such a title as "Chitose, Long Live" in that month, and their Sun and Moon God Sect dared to directly ask people to preach it in the alleys, which was obviously an ambition to overthrow the imperial court.
It is also really strange that in Heimu Cliff, which is only a few hundred miles away from the capital, the more ignorant people can be instigated to rebel in the vicinity, which can only show one problem: at this time, something happened to the imperial court, otherwise it would not have been like this-maybe the eunuch Wang Zhenzheng was obsessed with expanding his influence inside and outside the imperial court, so he also secretly colluded with the Sun and Moon Divine Cult outside the imperial court-Shi Yu thought that only this explanation was relatively reasonable.
After more than ten days, there are enough people who eat and sleep in the open, and sometimes I really want to find a place to take a bath, but this is the biggest confusion - I can't expose myself as the target of the Jianghu people. The first stop is to go to Songshan first, not to go to Songshan faction, but also to see Shaolin Temple!
Henan was relatively prosperous in the Ming Dynasty. The Central Plains, the original center of the Yellow River civilization, has a large population, so passing through Songshan, even if you don't really want to stay, you just want to simply understand the information of the Songshan faction, you have to take a look, but you are also frightened: the Songshan faction is really big, there are really too many people, not to blow! The scale of the number of people alone is equivalent to more than ten Huashan! Shaolin Temple, that is definitely the origin of martial arts at that time, Mount Tai Beidou. It is conceivable that there will be more people.
The teahouses, wine shops, Goolan and Washe around the Songshan faction, these related facilities, are dotted all over the place, and when they arrive in the Central Plains, people are next to each other in a village and town, and there are many restaurants, and the aroma of wine and the shouts of diners in it have spread far away! This is Zhongyue Song Mountain, and then continue to walk north for a few days is Beiyue Heng Mountain, after Heng Mountain, as long as one day is Hebei Heimu Cliff.
Shi Yu saw that the brothers around him were all tired and had not taken a bath for many days. Prosperous and lively, also exciting. Everyone looked at him in amazement.
Shi Yu is a mature teenager and has strict management of the entire team. Ever since he had crossed the jungle and killed two Huashan disciples, he had strongly supervised the discipline of the team, only saying that he would not let those who had studied martial arts for many years die under poisonous snakes, beasts, and accidents. So everyone is quite afraid of Shi Yu, and now they are begging Shi Yu to speak.
Shi Yu looked at everyone and smiled: "Let's take a day off for asceticism, but I said okay, the core characters of our group must not be separated again, understand?" ”
"Okay!" Ling Hu Chong stared at Shi Yu the most tightly when he spoke, and nodded his head in agreement, and then he even grabbed a few senior brothers, such as Lu Monkey, and made it a gesture for them to listen to "Dugu Daxia"!
"What do you think?" Shi Yu saw that Ling Hu Chong agreed too happily, and felt that his heart and eyes were out of balance just now, and he said depressedly, could it be that he would meet the Demon Sect goddess Ren Yingying here, this past incident, Ling Hu Chong really didn't take it seriously? Gotta mention it again!
He turned his attention to the rest of the people, such as Jade Jiaolong, Tianbadu and others, meaning that they all came according to the rules.
Yu Jiaolong is a noble girl, a child of the Eight Banners! It was originally unpleasant to mix with the Huashan faction, but with Shi Yu and An Zihao, these plane policemen were there, and they made great statements to them, and even deceived them, but as a result, they had a powerful lethal weapon in their hands - Jade Jiaolong of the Qingying Sword had to choose to follow Shi Yu and An Zihao firmly, and it was really not good not to follow together, or with whom? Hopefully, these people can still understand her heart!
By the way, she's the only woman, so there's something inconvenient, right? No! Jade Jiaolong, that's not an ordinary woman!
That punch and kick kung fu, that fighting technique, that bursting temper! That killing people is not eye-catching! This female devil is usually extremely gentle, like a kitten, yes, she is a cat, but if she is a cat, then this small team is a group of little mice! And all of them are underage!
Tianba don't have to worry about it, this guy is very popular, don't look at it as a foreigner, everyone in the team likes to play with him, find him to practice martial arts, this person is not stingy, unlike other Jianghu people, he is very willing to teach, as a result, the fighting level of this team, the level has improved too much, there are too many tricks in the ancient martial arts, and it is not fierce, Tianba Du's moves, that are the most ferocious and fierce.
This group of people has discussed, and they want to go to the big town in front of them to stay, stay in the store, and wash the dust, do you think it is simple?
No! This is an extravagant and dangerous operation for this team walking on the rivers and lakes!
Now the Jianghu people of the Songshan faction and the Sun and Moon Divine Sect have basically included the disciples of the Huashan faction in the target of killing, and the Songshan faction died a second leader last time, and a lot of people died, this feud has been settled, needless to say, and the clear feud of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect is also clearly proven.
Everything started from the last Huashan Sword Meeting, because before Huashan set off, when everyone was dealing with the remains of the killed zombies, they found a "Xuantie Token" on one of them, which was a symbol of the low-level elders of the Sun and Moon God Sect. This is enough to show that there are zombies in the Sun and Moon God Cult.
Their team of people put on makeup to become a small team of merchants from Shaanxi to the capital, such a team walking between the rivers and lakes is the most common, the most hidden, so they drove the big car into the big town in front, take a closer look, ah! It's a big and lively place, some houses in this town are very old, and it can be seen that this place is still very historical, and then look, doing business, business, all kinds of outsiders and locals, crowded in one place, you can't see the end at a glance!
Among them, the Jianghu people who carry them on their backs, on their shoulders, and all kinds of weapons in their hands, are the most eye-catching, of course, these people's weapons cannot be taken in vain, and it is not easy for them to enter the big city, they have to go through the test of the guards of the big city gate, or they can't get in; The people of the rivers and lakes can only put their weapons in a dark place, or put them together with the goods, so that when they are inspected, they give the guards two money, and no one cares about this kind of thing.
In this big town, it is not uncommon to see soaps wearing gray and black clothes along the way, these are specifically looking for trouble with the people of the rivers and lakes, nominally "maintaining law and order", people from nearby county yamen or government yamen, as well as some local "village-level joint forces", or named "green protection team", as well as extremely rare eunuchs wearing flying fish suits or official uniforms, needless to say, they are Jinyiwei and East and West No. 2 Factory!
That's right, the people of Jinyiwei and the East and West Factory are not only mixed in the capital, their establishment is expanding year by year, to say that these people have become a social phenomenon at that time, this is also true!
To the street, do buy and sell, all kinds of stores, all kinds of business mouth shouting, the sound comes and goes, very lively, this is definitely a big town, four big characters at the entrance of the town, an archway: "Songyang Left Town"!
Here's it: "Hey! Come on, come and buy, hot buns that are newly out of the pot! ”
shouted over there: "Hey, hit the top of the store, hot water room, there is a restaurant downstairs, how many guest officers?" Three people please! ”
shouted here: "Sell cloth and sell cloth to make quilts and sheets, and silk and satin surpass Suzhou and Hangzhou!" ”
Over there: "Uncle! Why are you here, you haven't been looking for girls to play for a long time! The slave family wants to kill you! ”
Shi Yu and his group, watching while walking, were dizzying, they all looked stupid! Everyone walked for several days in the mountain villages and wild roads, they were all tired and sleepy, An Zihao had the most experience, and came up to Shi Yu and said: "It's noon now, I see that there are a lot of us, these twenty or thirty people, we must have a place to live first, let's live in a store!" After a while, I'm afraid it won't be easy for this town to find an inn where we can live. ”
"Okay, Brother An, you are really an old man!" Shi Yu also has a heart and An Zihao gags.
But the Linghu Chong around him, Tianba and so on, have involuntarily drilled to the most lively place, on this street, there are too many people who can see the excitement, what kind of trick-style showmanship, selling strong pills, playing bears and practicing monkey plays, setting up stalls and throwing darts, selling singing storytellers, etc., etc., etc., etc., are very lively!
Fortunately, Shi Yu had already arranged for the Xiong brothers to take care of the discipline of these people, and these deserted people were pulled back.
It wasn't until he entered the inn to arrange accommodation and saw these people staying in the hotel that Shi Yu's hanging heart gradually let go: he walked the rivers and lakes by himself, because he had also experienced a lot of plane shuttle process, so he was very mature, had a lot of life experience and experience, and knew that many accidents happened from not going according to the step-by-step process.
Shi Yu's plan is perfect, in this way, the plane of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" will be repaired quickly, how can there be any accidents?
However, since entering the inside of this inn, Shi Yu felt a strange feeling, rushing to his face, by the way, when the name of this inn entered the door, because it was written in traditional characters, he had been thinking about which simplified Chinese characters......
Big black letters on a red background, hey, "New Dragon Gate Inn" - the name of this inn is very strange and familiar!
This inn is located in the center of the town, according to the perspective of feng shui, whether it is the location, pattern, layout how to look at how to make people feel awkward, from a distance, it feels like a "eight hearts and eight arrows" nirvana, approached the inn, climbed a high-rise here, and then look, countless roads in front and back, left and right!
The house of this pattern, the yang house is in feng shui, and in ancient Chinese feng shui, there is a very poor name, called ten thousand arrows piercing the heart!
Ten thousand arrows pierce the heart, and the main kills.
Feng Shui is a not mysterious prediction discipline in ancient China!
Passed down to this day, many cheats have been lost, but there are still people mentioning that everyone knows to look at feng shui, mainly looking at two types of feng shui, one is to look at the yin house, and the other is to look at the yang house!
For the Yang house, the front and back, such as the bedroom place, is opposite, generally can not have a straight road, if this "can't" happens to be realized, and it is quite powerful, this is a kind of chaotic feng shui bureau, and this kind of bureau, actually appeared in this town, faintly looked up, woohoo! The murderous aura was heavy, and as soon as Shi Yu closed his eyes, he felt that thousands of troops were killing towards his position!
What's this for?!
Come to think of it, what an old movie "New Dragon Gate Inn" is! There is Maggie Cheung as the boss lady in it, and the narrative of this film genre has already been made bad by many film school freshmen!
