Chapter 33: The Three Realms Are Intricate
Since the stream was not deep, Qin Mo grinned at the pain of being touched by the underwater stones, and Pandigre and Ayina appeared in the water on the side. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Ayina!" Gray was furious, he could have landed safely, but he was dragged by this woman.
"Huh?" Aegina's voice came from behind her, and Gray hurriedly turned around, the distance between the two of them was ambiguous, and she was looking at him viciously.
"Uh...... Don't you know how to shift the space, why don't you pull me into the water with you. "Gray's attitude is noticeably better.
"Hey, it's okay if you can't protect people as a big man, and you're so fierce to take advantage of me, what kind of man are you!"
At this time, Ayina was wearing her beautiful long blue hair, and her body looked smooth and bright after being soaked in water, like a hibiscus out of water, which was tempting to think about it. She casually ripped off Gray's cloak and wrapped it around her nearly exposed body, and was the last to go ashore.
The two men on the shore must have been very proud, they had never seen Gray so embarrassed, and now they had to find a place to change their clothes.
It's a long, narrow valley road that winds and turns with no exit. A wisp of cooking smoke rose, and there was a small shop in the distance, and the four people who fell into the water were overjoyed.
The shop is made of a wooden pole to prop up a canopy, with a few square tables and a few bamboo stools, and a person is cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and the pot behind him is still steaming.
"Do you want to rest your feet? Little brother, there is tea and dinner here. The young man saw a few people coming over and hurriedly came out to greet him.
Qin Mo saw that this person had black hair and black eyes and was of the same race as himself, in Uncle Zhuang's words, he was called "Huaxia Clan", and felt a little kind, he was busy working alone in the store, could he open a shop in this deserted valley?
"Where is this, is there a place for us to change our clothes?" Qin Mo glanced at it, and the small shop was unobstructed, and there was no place to change clothes.
"Look at these people, are they from the west?" the shopkeeper pointed to Gray and the others, "This is a trade route, and it is the only way to connect the two sides. You seem to have fallen into the water, so I'll pack up and take you to my house. ”
This person was quite enthusiastic, Qin Mo and the others didn't eat in his store, and he didn't complain anything. Since it's a business, there must be a lot of customers on weekdays.
He quickly finished it, and the basket with the ingredients on his back led everyone home. Fortunately, the family lives not far away, and it is a short walk out of the valley on the right.
His family lives halfway up the mountain, and there is a village at the bottom of the mountain, but he didn't expect that there was such a place behind this Liekong Mountain. As soon as he entered the door, he saw his wife teaching his two children to practice calligraphy on the wooden board, isn't this the ancient time? Qin Mo was surprised to find that he recognized these characters, and the magic pill he took when he first came also recorded this kind of character? What kind of place is this, where people of all races live together? Qin Mo had a series of questions in his heart.
"I think we should split up. Gray, who knew the situation, said, "This place, like the Stygian Sea, is a place that connects the east and the west, and only by separating can the task be completed faster." ”
Everyone agreed with Gray's decision, so the six of them were divided into two groups, Gray Pandy and Xuan Xi Della naturally had one group each, and the rest were Qin Mo and Aiina.
"Don't look at me, I'll do whatever I want. Aina said.
"I'm still in a group with my sister, how dangerous it is for three girls to move, right?" Qin Mo didn't want to be in a group with Gray, and he was the same cold person as Xuan Xi, he would rather choose Xuan Xi.
Gray was a little hesitant, he really didn't want Xuan Xi and Qin Mo to be on a team, but in the end, he couldn't help it. Everyone discussed, regardless of whether there was a result in the end, and went directly back to the ancient tree and waited for news.
The hospitable host entertained them to dinner, and the two teams set out separately, with Gray's group returning to the valley and heading there, while Xuanxi's group moved to the village down the mountain.
This village is called Baishui Village, named after the nearby Baishui River Waterfall, and the village is dominated by the Huaxia people, which is a village next to the East-West trade road, and there is a mixture of different races. Finally arrived at a place with a large number of people, but this place was behind an unknown door.
According to the Elder, the only way to find the strange orb was to investigate the place where the meteorite fell, which was a different kind of meteorite, and it was not known how Yucas learned about the extraterrestrial orb.
That night, Qin Mo asked many families in the village, but they didn't know about meteorites, and some people even didn't know what meteorites were.
"Why don't you go to the royal capital and ask, there is an astrologer there who will definitely help you. The last old man gave Qin Mo a move.
From Baishui Village to the north, about ten days away, is Yingdu.
"Is this another country?" Qin Mo suddenly realized after hearing the royal capital.
"Where did the young man come from? There are still people in this world who don't know our Chu country?"
Chu...... Which Chu country? Qin Mo's heart stirred up a thousand waves, where is this? Chu State is not the Chu State of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, this world has not only changed in space, but also in time. Qin Mo suddenly realized, the world on the other side of the Liekong Mountain would not be like a distorted road, connecting from a place in the lower reaches of the Long River of Time to a certain place in the upstream, what was the reason for the appearance of that incomplete time and space, and where did that time and space originally belong?
"What's wrong with you?" Isa Della asked as she looked at Qin Mo's strange expression.
"Let's go, Yingdu!" Qin Mo suddenly said excitedly.
The three of them went out of Baishui Village, Qin Mo has been walking in the front, as if he is very familiar with the road, he can't wait to go to Yingdu as soon as possible, to see the ancient palace, the life of the ancients, if it is really the Chu State in history, what should he do? What period of Chu will it be, whether it is the Chu of the Spring and Autumn Period or the Chu of the Warring States, as for how to divide the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States, Qin Mo is also stupid and unclear.
According to the instructions of the old man, this road will go down to a place called Qianzhong County, "Come to the night and return to your hometown suddenly", Qin Mo now feels like he is dreaming, and he has returned to his hometown, which is just his hometown thousands of years ago.
After resting in a wooded area for the night, the three of them set off early the next morning, bought two fast horses on the way, and arrived in Qianzhong County in the evening.
The quaint building came into the field of vision of the three of them, and the pedestrians who came and went gradually became all yellow people, and Isadra, the bright orange hair, undoubtedly became an outlier, and the return rate soared all the way.
This relatively prosperous county town is not lively, I heard that the whole city is fighting a strange disease, the patient is weak, hot and cold, the eyes are dry and red, the disease has lasted for more than ten days, it looks like an infectious disease, but most of the patients are men.
It's really unfortunate that after a day's journey, I had to stay overnight in this "sick city". I heard that a cure had been found for the disease, but the prescription-related medicines in the pharmacies of the city were bought by the officials.
Qin Mo was very angry about this, although it was not an immediate death-threatening disease, but the officials were still very selfish in this way. When Isadera waved the staff in her hand to heal an elderly man, the surrounding suddenly exploded, "there is a fairy in the city" and other words quickly spread, the inn where the three of them stayed was suddenly full of people, the mother held her son and wife and her husband came to visit, Isadela's magic was much faster than the effect of medicine, and hundreds of patients were cured in just two hours.
Isa Della pinched her forehead, Qin Mo knew that she was a little tired, but she didn't plan to rest, which made Qin Mo very moved, although these people had nothing to do with her. This sister's heart seems so sacred at this moment.
"Get out of the way!" There was a shouting from outside the door, and the crowd in front of the door was pushed away, and a few officers and soldiers came in, "The county guard is invited, please follow us quickly." Said the officer and soldier who took the lead.
Xuan Xi stood up, but Qin Mo took her hand and whispered, "Don't act rashly, go and take a look." ”
Xuan Xi remembered what Qin Mo said to himself last night, "I am more familiar with this place than you, listen to me all the way, don't make trouble." So he put away his killing intent.
The county guard was not large, but it was full of soldiers, and many of the recovered soldiers were feeding them medicine. The county guard walked quickly to greet the three of them, and Qin Mo was about to ask why the county guard ignored the common people.
"The three great immortals, if they are far away, they hope to bear with them. The county keeper looked haggard and his eyes were bloodshot, and he hadn't slept well for a long time.
"Immortal Mao, why did you collect all the medicinal herbs in the city and only think about yourself?" Qin Mo was not very sure if the ancients could understand his words.
The county guard was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Qin Mo to say this, but he still respectfully said something that Qin Mo didn't know. It turns out that the epidemic disease in the city is not accidental, but someone deliberately put the source of the disease in the city, according to the spies to report, it was done by the southeast of the Yue people, the capture of Yue is one of the southern barbarian tribes, the barbarians have invaded the border of Chu all the year round, although they are all small fights, but it has always been a headache for the Chu State.
The army stationed in Qianzhong County could have coped with it, but the people of the capture of this incapacitating disease brought by them from nowhere, it can be said that the whole city has reached the point of life and death, and the county guard has to treat the soldiers in the army first. But it takes time for the medicine to be ready, and no one knows when the captivators will attack, maybe tonight.
It turned out to be a misunderstanding, but fortunately Xuan Xi didn't make a move, otherwise it would have caused a big disaster. I heard that there was a strange person in Qianzhong County who could quickly cure this disease, so the county guard immediately sent someone to invite three people.
"I also hope that the three knights will help to save Qianzhong from fire and water. ”
"My lord, I caught a suspicious person outside the city, claiming to be a captive. Then two soldiers came in with a man.
The person who was brought in turned out to be a white-haired old man, with pure white long hair and a shawl, and his eyebrows and beard were all white, but his face was very smooth, without age spots or impurities such as particles.
"This old thing is sneaking around in the woods outside the city, and we're patrolling and catching it. A soldier said.
"Ridiculous! let go of the old man!" the county guard shouted, and hurriedly walked up to personally untie the old man, "The prescription given by Bian Que's divine doctor has cured your illness, and it is so rude!"
The two soldiers were stupid, they never thought that this old man who claimed to be a "captive man" turned out to be the famous Bian Que.
