Chapter 527: The Bridge Flows
The north wind was howling, the cold was biting, it was the end of winter, but it was the coldest time, and occasionally a patch of snow white appeared in the distance, which was a rare snowfall, and most of the others were barren. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The distance of five hundred miles should have been able to resist in three days, but the old patriarch was obviously anxious, so in the early morning of the third day, the two of them gradually slowed down.
Looking at the distant mountains shining on that blurry beam of light, Kikina felt like a world away.
The old patriarch did the same, with an emotional tone: "Only medium-sized tribes can disperse the clouds overhead and let the sun shine here." ā
"Yes, it's the only place where you can feel the shadows. Ki Na also sighed, how long has it been before I saw the morning light in the distance, and I thought it was wonderful, and at this time, the shadow on the left side flashed in the sunlight, which made people feel extremely rare.
Some dense buildings in the distance appear in the field of vision, and unlike the small tribes such as the Dongshan tribe, the buildings in the distance have a strong flavor of Dongsheng architecture, but they also retain the local flavor, and they have merged with each other. It is clearly distinguished, but also extremely coordinated.
And such a tribe is almost hundreds of times the size of the Dongshan tribe, which can be called huge!
"This is the Baofeng Ministry, which used to be called the State of Literature and Ink!" the old patriarch was very familiar with it, and introduced it again.
"Oh?" Kikina looked at the patriarch.
The patriarch said: "This tribe was once very prosperous and became the first of the ten major tribes, but the years have changed, and the once holy land of cultivation has not fallen into a medium-sized tribe, and now it is even more dangerous. ā
Mu Ming nodded, but in his mind, he thought of the Mu clan and Mu Village, one dominates one side, and the other hides in the deep mountains and old forests, which can be described as two extremes, the world is impermanent, and there is always an unpredictable side.
At this time, the smoke curls there, and the morning light shines, with a hazy feeling, making it difficult to imagine that this is the land of the Wu Clan.
Baofeng is located in the middle of several mountains, several mountains arch to guard Baofengbu, they are enclosed together, like a cradle, but the mountain is not high, so it gives people a brighter feeling, a large river meanders from a distance, twists and turns through Baofengbu, a bridge across it, are made of stones, is a stone arch bridge, even if the river floods will not be flooded.
"That is the Baofeng Bridge, the predecessor is a wooden bridge, the bridge is all wooden houses, it is a good scenery, many people sell things on it, and then the river floods, I don't know where an old tree appears in the river, with the river, the old tree is like taking root in the river, the trunk stands proudly in the river, directly the wooden bridge penetrates, this is the stone bridge, but this bridge is weird!"
The old patriarch knew a lot, and said when he saw Mu Ming looking at the stone bridge.
Kinashi said: "It seems to be alive!"
The old patriarch said: "Sure enough, your eyesight is different after you achieve the position of the mountain god, there is indeed life there, but it is not the stone bridge itself that gives birth to spirituality, but someone who was buried alive in the stone bridge and became the spirit of Baofeng Bridge!"
Mu Ming opened his mouth slightly, as if he was shocked by the words of the old patriarch, and his heart was very uncomfortable, and the scene that the patriarch said involuntarily appeared in front of him.
"That's true, there was a pair of grandparents and grandchildren who came here to beg, and it was when the arch bridge was being built, but this bridge was like a curse, every time it was about to be completed, it would collapse inexplicably, and finally, the mountain god of the Baofeng Department, that is, the ink snake that you told appeared, and said that this bridge requires the sacrifice of two yin and yang physiques to be achieved!"
"What is a yin and yang body? Could it be a spirit body?" said Mu Ming.
The old patriarch shook his head: "Otherwise, the so-called yin and yang body is born when it is extremely yang, and it is born when it is extremely yin.
Mu Ming understood, and said: "This bridge is somehow cursed, only the power of yin and yang can break it, and I think that the grandson is the yin and yang body!"
The old patriarch sighed and said, "They are ordinary people, and what they do is only begging, but they are just ...... Later, they were buried alive at both ends of the bridge, which was really built and has not been destroyed to this day!"
"However, there are also rumors that one of the grandsons has escaped, and has been cursing in the Baofeng Ministry, so the Baofeng Ministries continue to decline!" The old patriarch said some of his own rumors, but in the end he also laughed, as if he felt that the rumors were not credible.
Mu Ming was silent, and finally said: "It's a rumor, I don't know if it's true or not!"
"Yes, for hundreds of years, the old mountain god may know a thing or two, but the old mountain god is too lazy to pay attention to these. ā
The old patriarch looked into the distance, and at this time, a huge stone gate slowly opened, but the access of the Baofeng tribe disappeared, and then he saw some figures appear.
The position of the two is on a small road at the foot of the mountain, at this time, the trouser legs are wet, just because the water vapor at night is very heavy, and the eyebrows are even more with the breath of wind and dust, the two have come along the way, and have also encountered some tribes, but they have avoided it, for fear of trouble, the old patriarch has lived for a long time, and he is very familiar with this place, so he walked on the path, and then rushed here,
After looking at it for a while, after making sure that no one from the Sky Fox Department had been found, the old patriarch breathed a sigh of relief.
Nodding, the two quickened their pace, and when they appeared outside the gate, someone immediately appeared to stop them.
When the old patriarch took out a wooden plaque engraved with these two strange totems, the man's face softened slightly, but the old patriarch said, "I want to see Elder Wan!"
The man was stunned for a moment, and then said, "This ...... Not in line!"
"It's not the time to talk about the rules, the Sky Fox Department is here!"
The old patriarch said a little excitedly.
When the man heard the words of the Heavenly Fox Department, his face changed greatly, and then he said, "The patriarch comes with me!"
Then another whistle was blown, and immediately a female warrior came up, and after a brief exchange between the two, the female warrior walked up to Kina, and said respectfully: "I have seen the mountain god!
Mu Ming nodded, but his eyes looked at the back of the old patriarch who left in a hurry, but for some reason, he remembered the name of Elder Wan.
So I couldn't help asking, "Excuse me...... Who is Elder Wan?"
The lady was originally walking on Kimina's side, but when she heard Kimina's words, her steps paused, but her eyes were strange.
Ignoring the fact that he seemed to have figured out something, he took another step and said with a smile: "It's also a story, the Dongshan tribe once almost became in-laws with the Baofeng tribe. ā
Mu Ming realized in his heart, although there was not much information, but the female warrior's eyes were obviously different, no wonder the old patriarch was so excited.
At this time, the female warrior said: "Back then, Elder Wan was a flower of the Baofeng Department, and there were naturally many admirers, and Patriarch Zhang was naturally among them, and he also begged for marriage, but later Elder Wan married the young patriarch of the Shimen Ministry, but the young patriarch suddenly died on the eve of the wedding, and Elder Wan naturally couldn't go to the Shimen Ministry, and then never married, but now he has become a member of the Elders' Association!"
"I see!" Mu Ming only understood this time why the old patriarch was a little helpless about his in-laws, thinking that he had been young back then, and he had a heartbeat.
"Did Elder Nawan ever have feelings for Elders?" Kikina wanted to know most about this, maybe it was curiosity, it could be something else.
The female warrior shook her head and said, "There may or may not be, this kind of thing can only be clear to the person concerned! But over the years, Elder Wan and Patriarch Zhang have met when they meet at the clan meeting, and this is a little-known thing in the clan!"
"Thank you!" After a while, Mu Ming said, but he remembered the little excitement that the old patriarch inadvertently showed after hearing that he came here, and he thought that there was a reason for it.
The female warrior shook her head, didn't say much, and took Mu Ming to a courtyard in the distance.
"Quadrangular Pavilion!"
Looking at the plaque in the courtyard, he read it softly.
Mu Ming vaguely heard some voices coming from inside, but he was not curious.
At this time, the female warrior said: "Lord Mountain God, this is the Sifang Pavilion, where many tribes have settled!"
After that, he knocked lightly on the door, and the door opened immediately, but it was two doormen, and it was they who opened the door.
"I've seen Commander Kim!" the man knew this woman, and his demeanor was extremely respectful.
After the female warrior nodded faintly, she made a gesture of invitation to Mu Ming, and the two men also bowed their heads respectfully.
Mu Ming nodded lightly, these rules the old patriarch had said, and he wouldn't feel anything at this time.
After entering the courtyard, I found that there were already people here, they were either chatting in the courtyard, or drinking alone, and some people were reading something, but at this time, they all looked over, and finally they all frowned.
In the center of the courtyard there is a wide stone paved road, flanked by rows of houses, some of which are made of stone and some of them are made of wood, each of which has two floors, and on one side of the house is a wooden sign with the names of the various tribes.
At the end of the road, the female warrior stopped, and then said to a house: "This is the residence of the Dongshan tribe, and I am bidding farewell!"
The female warrior clenched her fists and took three steps back before turning around, and Kikina thanked her before taking a closer look at the house.
The first floor is the living room, where there is a round table of stone, surrounded by four stone piers, on which are placed a pot of wine, a plate of meat, and a few cups, in addition to some unknown fruits, and the plate of meat has a faint heat, which is supposed to have been arranged by someone.
After a brief glance, Mu Ming came to the second floor along the stairs on the left, there are stairs on both sides of the attic, showing a zigzag shape, and the wooden board on the edge of the staircase is not known to have some flowers and plants, which is very fresh and has a taste.
On the second floor, there are three rooms, which are also simple in structure, with a bed, a table, two wooden piers, and several animal skin books.
The layout is very simple, but it has a sense of freshness, which is completely different from the style of the Dongshan tribe.
Kikina walked a few steps and slowly pushed open the doors and windows, but he felt a cold wind blowing, and he didn't care, but what made Kimina feel strange was the stone bridge and the winding river.
At this time, Mu Ming will use his eyes and focus his eyes on a stone tablet by the river, but the word "Yujiang" is written!
But before I had time to take a closer look, I heard footsteps, and Kikina didn't look back, and after a while, I heard a person at the door and said, "I take the liberty of disturbing, I hope you forgive me!"
Only then did Mu Ming turn around, clench his fists slightly, and said, "I don't know who Your Excellency is?"
The person who came was a young man, but Mu Ming saw that this person was at least 100 years old, with vicissitudes in his eyes, but what was surprising was that this person was dressed in white and had a scholarly smell on his body, but Mu Ming knew that this person was a mountain god.
"Wolf Shinbu Mountain God, lone wolf!"
The man slowly explained the origin, but the information of this tribe appeared in Mu Ming's mind, but he was more and more puzzled, because the Wolf New Department and the Dongshan Department could be said to be the two ends of the same Baofeng Division, and there was a Baofeng Department in the middle, and there was almost no intersection between the two departments.
"Fortunately, it is the Shinyama God of the Higashiyama Department, Kina!"
Mu Mingdao, but he didn't know this person's intentions.
And the lone wolf said: "Can you take advantage of the location of Daoyou to see the bridge?"
Ki Na was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and at this time the lone wolf also came in, but it was really as he said, because he was really watching, and there was a difference in his expression.
Now the name of the wood is even more confusing!(To be continued.) )
