Chapter 10: Broken Dragon Terrace
The time is late autumn and early winter, the north ushered in the snow season, last night to sleep is still full of gloomy mountains, to wake up in the morning, as far as the eye can see, it is already covered in silver.
Whew~~
The cold wind was hunting, several carriages were parked by the river, and the wounded people were leaving and She Long were asking about the boats on the dock.
Dressed in a black cotton robe and a cloak on his shoulders, Night Terror Hall stood by the river and looked at the mountains and rivers of Yazhou.
After returning to Honghe Town, because there were still things to do, Night Terror Hall set off the next day, walking east along the border pass to Yazhou, which borders Liangzhou.
The old dart bureau has been bought by Xuanji Zhenren, and the next time I return to my hometown, I don't know when, if no one takes care of it, it will definitely be dilapidated, so Sanniang also said hello to Uncle Song in Heishi Pass, and after the Tangkou outside the gate is formed, arrange some people to come to Honghe Town to be stationed as a contact point, and take care of the dart bureau by the way.
Yazhou is not far from the Liangzhou Plain, but the terrain is very different, the territory under its jurisdiction is all hilly, and it is difficult for the cavalry to advance, so it is all heavy infantry brigades; And it is this dangerous place that cannot be broken through, dividing the pattern of confrontation between the north and the south.
After the cliff mountain, the two dynasties can directly reach the capital of the other country, for which the dynasties and dynasties, both sides have displayed heavy troops on the border; As the main weapon of the battle array, the big gun is naturally flourishing in Yazhou, and it is not an exaggeration to say that half of the gunmen in the entire rivers and lakes are in Yazhou.
Night Terror walked in the winding mountains for a few days, until it snowed heavily, and then really entered the territory of Yazhou, and came to the shore of the Qingjiang River that crossed from Yazhou, and the next journey was by boat, and the speed would be much faster.
Seeing that the wounds were gradually leaving, Night Terror turned around and came to the parked carriages.
Because it was the first snow of the year, Dongfang Liren and Lu Fairy came to the place, and also made a painting case, painting a snow scene by the river, with a silver fox fur on his shoulders, and his posture and temperament even covered the snow scene of heaven and earth.
Fan Qinghe also changed into winter clothes, and stood in the distance with Sanniang, and the two of them whispered.
Although I couldn't hear what was said in the Night Terror Hall, judging from Sanniang's expression, he should be asking him about the recovery progress of his body, whether it would be too much to reward him, and so on.
Xiao Yunli was born in the south, and has never seen snow a few times since he was a child, and he is more excited than the birds, and he is piling snowbirds next to the carriage.
Night Terror Hall glanced at the side, and saw that the clouds and glasses were piled up in four different places, and it was not easy to laugh and laugh, so he secretly shook his head and came to the wide carriage.
The Queen Mother had already experienced the wind and snow in the mountains, and naturally she was not as excited as the other girls at this time, sitting in the carriage and admiring it from the window at will.
Since being knocked in the corner of the wall by the night terror hall a few days ago, and twisted it, the queen mother was completely panicked, and she hid all the way in front of the clumsy in the past few days, not giving the night terror hall a chance to meet at all, and at this time she found that the night terror hall came over, so she quickly closed the curtain.
Seeing this scene, the Night Terror Hall jumped directly into the carriage and entered it, and saw Hongyu lying on the window looking at the snow scene, so he said:
"The ship is set, Ruby, you go and clean up the room first."
"Okay."
Seeing this, Hongyu didn't notice the Queen Mother's unspeakable eyes, got up and ran out.
The Queen Mother was not easy to stop, and when she saw that there were only lonely men and widows left in the carriage, she folded her hands on her legs, turned her face to the night terror, and put on a sad appearance, without saying a word.
There is a copper heater in the carriage, which is much warmer than the outside, and the queen mother is naturally not thick, and the crimson winter skirt is tied up in a bunch, which makes the placket very full; Wearing a pearl hairpin, Guotai Min'an's small round face is dotted with red rouge, dressed in a very ladylike temperament, just like a peony flower with a long aftertaste, the more you look at it, the more you can feel the charm.
Although this dress is not gorgeous, it is obviously carefully dressed, and I don't know if it is a woman who pleases herself.
Night Terror came to him and looked overwhelmed:
"Mother?"
"Humph......"
The Queen Mother turned around and changed directions, facing the door, still ignoring the night terrors.
Slightly helpless, Night Terror sat down in front of him, his hand on his waist, half against the perfect curve of the full moon.
The Queen Mother's body straightened slightly, her sad look suddenly disappeared, turned into nervousness and annoyance, and turned to look at the Night Terror, her eyes were estimated to be - are you crazy? It's full of people out there!
Seeing that the Queen Mother didn't dare to squeak, the night terror hall felt a little funny, and raised her hand to scrape the tip of her nose very rebelliously:
"The boat is ready, I will send my mother on the boat, obedient and obedient, don't lose your temper, it's okay to walk around, otherwise it's not good for your health."
When the Queen Mother heard this order, her demeanor was still so frivolous, she was naturally a little displeased, took a deep breath, and put on a dignified and stern posture:
"Night Terror, I forgot what I said to you when I came back...... Woo! ”
The Queen Mother held her head high, and before she finished speaking, she sat in the night terror hall beside her and bowed her head slightly.
Kiss~
The lips are together.
The noisy voices on the dock were instantly isolated from the world, leaving only the wind and snow and waves.
!!
The Queen Mother clasped her hands tightly, stared at her eyes incredibly, and was directly stunned, obviously she never dreamed that the originally gentle and elegant and caring Night Terror Hall could be so domineering and unreasonable to her.
This is to see that this palace is easy to bully, and I dare not do what I want to do with you?
This is the first kiss of Hongu......
The Queen Mother's eyes were constantly changing with the naked eye, showing grievances and shame several times, but she never dared to move.
Night Terror held the reddened mature cheeks, and after kissing it seriously, he sat up straight again and patted his lower back:
"Let's go."
“……”
The queen mother's clothes were visible to the naked eye, staring at the night terrors, her eyes seemed to be about to eat people, and she seemed to be ready to fight for her strength and not listen to the words of this chaotic minister and thief.
As a result, when the night terror hall saw this, he lowered his head again, and prepared to warm his hands.
"You ......"
The Queen Mother was not light, but there was nothing she could do, so she hurriedly raised her hand to stop the Night Terror, gritted her silver teeth, got up and walked out of the carriage silently. Maybe he was really angry, but he deliberately stepped on his toes in the night terror.
Night Terror Hall was a little careless before, and was beaten stupidly and violently, or chased and cut by Ning'er, in the face of this level of counterattack, he sighed, and followed the carriage with a smile.
When the Queen Mother came to the snow, she forcibly condensed, returned to her normal look, and when she squatted in front of Yunli, she saw the birds and birds circling around, and picked up the birds and birds and kneaded them. The posture of the bird rubbed the bird's eyes full of confusion......
The rented ship was quite large, with both passengers and cargo, and the carriage was parked on the deck, while the people lived in the rear building.
After the carriage was fully pulled onto the boat, the ship set sail and sailed along the winding waterway between the mountains to the central part of Yazhou.
Although the traffic is inconvenient, but the Yazhou landscape is indeed called the world's first, along the turbulent river, the steep peaks on both sides of the river are like walking horses to see the flowers, and every river bend under the wind and snow is enough to enter the painting.
Calligraphy and painting attainments are very high in the East, come to this kind of place can be described as a great deal of painting, has been outlining the river bank landscape in the window, its mentality is estimated to be similar to taking pictures while walking in the scenic spot.
There are also many black yashi on the ship, and the night terror hall can't always go to the door to accompany the girl to make love, and when the ship is moving, he stays on the deck like She Long and others, sits around the fireplace, and chats about the north and south rivers and lakes.
Zhe Yunli obviously has the temperament to stay in the house, and he also carries a small bench, and sits with Night Terror Hall holding his cheek to listen.
After walking for about half a day, the boat arrived in the county, a steep cliff appeared at the end of the turbulent river, from a distance, it seems that it will hit directly downstream, and the cliff is also engraved with three ghostly characters - Broken Dragon Terrace.
Ten miles away from the back of the broken dragon platform is the mountain city of Yuyang, itself is also a small wharf, at this time there are a lot of boats parked under the cliff, along the cliff on both sides of the river, you can also see the river and lake guests on the cliff side far away or walking.
Seeing this, Night Terror stood up and came to the bow of the ship, looked at the cliff in the distance, and asked:
"This is Red Feather Villa?"
Zhe Yunli is also here for the first time, but the storytelling hall is more diligent than the night terror hall, nodding like a few family treasures:
"Yes. Chu Hao, the king of the North Cliff Gun, lives here, and he is considered a big faction in Yazhou. The young master of the Red Flower Building back then, once climbed the Dragon Platform and Chu Hao to discuss the high and low, the two sides fought, and the small gap on the edge of the cliff should be the ...... fought back then."
When he arrived at the Broken Dragon Platform, Pei Xiangjun also walked out of the shipbuilding, wearing a shawl on his body, dressed like a wealthy lady, standing in front of the Night Terror Hall and looking at the ships under the cliff:
"It's really lively, it seems that all the Yazhou sects are here."
Night Terror Hall has never been to Yazhou, and the only impression of Hongling Villa is that when he killed Blood Bodhi, he killed an apprentice of Chu Hao who was expelled from the division, it seems that he is called Lu Ruan, a seven-foot gun, and he can be regarded as a bandit in Yunzhou, but unfortunately he met him who had just come out of the mountain, and he was directly slapped on the ground.
Seeing Sanniang coming, Night Terror Hall asked:
"What is the relationship between Honghualou and Chu Hao?"
Pei Xiangjun shrugged his shoulders slightly: "The Red God of Wealth has never revealed his identity, and fighting with Chu Hao is a battle for the eldest brother, and they have no personal friendship with each other, nor do they have any hatred or grudges, they are just simple competitors." ”
Zhi Yunli continued: "Chu Hao is an average person, his martial arts are good but he is very crazy, he was known as the first hero in Yazhou back then, and no one looked down on him. Later, the silence came out, and the people in the rivers and lakes thought that he would be unconvinced, and came to the door to compare and compare, but he saw that the silence was shot and killed, giving people the opportunity to challenge, but he did not give him room to admit defeat, so he was directly cowardly, and he retired from the rivers and lakes after being scolded for two years, and passed the owner of the village to his son......"
Pei Xiangjun sighed softly at this: "Martial artists also have to have long brains, knowing that they can't beat the broken silence, and the broken silence only distinguishes between life and death, regardless of victory or defeat, what else can Chu Hao do except admit it?" However, Chu Hao's madness is true, the eldest brother just felt that Hongling Villa was too jumpy, so he came to the door with a gun, but unfortunately there was a tie back then, and he didn't suppress the sharp energy......"
After discussing a few words in the Night Terror Hall, he felt that there was nothing to pay attention to, so he was ready to send the soft and touching Sanniang back to the room to work hard.
But when the ship sailed through the sharp bend under the broken dragon platform, several people found that there was a large ship docked under the back cliff on the other side.
The big ship was decorated with many red ribbons, and the ship's tower was hung with the word "Daiki", and several armed warriors stood at the edge of the deck, and the flag of the merchant was hung on the bow of the ship.
Pei Xiangjun just turned around, saw this scene and turned back, frowned and said:
"The banner of Wu Ji...... Is the Chu family married someone from the Broken North Cliff? ”
Night Terror raised his eyes and looked carefully, and found that the warriors above were all carrying guns, but there was no flag of the broken north cliff, and asked:
"Wu Ji is the flag of the Broken North Cliff?"
Pei Xiangjun shook his head: "The Wu family is the main family of the Broken North Cliff Sect, just like the Pei family in Honghualou, the head of the previous dynasties can be a person with a foreign surname, but the industry laid by the ancestor is still the Pei family, and the person who takes over the head is only in charge of the sect's industry......
"Broken Silence has no wife and no children, and being able to marry the young lady of the Wu family is basically a marriage with Broken North Cliff, no wonder there are so many people here. It's been too long this time, and I really don't know the news. ”
When Night Terror heard this explanation, he naturally understood the meaning. He came here this time, the purpose was to pull out the Broken North Cliff, and found that Hongling Villa and the Broken North Cliff went together, so he must have to come to the door to give a gift.
Night Terror Hall looked up at the top of the Broken Dragon Terrace and spoke:
"It's very lively up there, I'll go see what's going on, let the boat go first, I'll catch up later."
As soon as Zhi Yunli heard this, he suddenly came to his senses, and ran back to get the big knife:
"Wait for me, wait for me, I'll go with you."
And the big stupid who was painting at the window, when he heard the sound of his eyes, put down the brush and jumped down from the ship's floor, his eyes were dissatisfied:
"Night Terror, your injuries are still not healed, where are you going?"
Night Terror turned around and motioned to the wedding ship in the distance:
"Find out something, go up and take a look, and I'll be back later."
Dongfang is very martial, and his interest in the excitement of the rivers and lakes is greater than that of Yunli, so he wanted to stop and take a look at such a big scene, but he was not willful because of important things.
Seeing that the Night Terror Hall was about to go up, Dongfang Liren couldn't open his mouth and begged the Lord Hall to take her with him, so he held his head high and pretended to be serious:
"You are not well injured, and you are acting recklessly, how can this king rest assured that you are acting alone? This king follows you, Meng Jiao accompanies you, and the others stay on the boat to protect the safety of the queen mother with Shizun. Let's go. ”
“……”
Pei Xiangjun was standing next to him, and when he heard this, he felt that this queen was so domineering, and on this occasion, she should follow her out of the house.
But the queen is different from Ning'er, she really can't hold it back, so she has to turn her head and tell Night Terror Hall to pay attention to safety.
Seeing this, Night Terror Hall didn't say much, and after sending Sanniang back to the shipbuilding, she changed into a Jianghu costume and went out with a dragon gun.
Dongfang is as tall as a man, his aura is as high as one zhang, and he is really eye-catching when he goes out, and he also changed into men's clothes and wears a hat and cape.
And Xiao Yunli is much simpler, even if she is dressed as a Jiaojiao lady, she is a slur with a knife and a blade of grass in her mouth, she is a slicker in the streets of the rivers and lakes, and she doesn't need to disguise at all.
After cleaning up, Night Terror took the two girls and Meng Jiao and jumped onto the river bank together and walked towards the crowd going up the mountain......
And at the same time.
There are a lot of rooms on the ship, and the doors and windows are closed under the light snow.
Fan Qinghe didn't have to worry about the revitalization of the Winter Underworld Department when he went out this time, nor did he have to be busy with the cumbersome government affairs in the clan, so he naturally picked up all his hobbies, sat at the table, and fiddled with all kinds of bottles and cans.
Xuanji Zhenren stood at the window, watching the night terror hall and the apprentice run to play, although he had the heart to go up to drink the wine, but after all, it was not good to compete with the apprentice, so he still closed the window at the moment and watched Fan Qinghe prepare a unique secret medicine.
And not long after the night terror hall walked away, the queen mother, who had tied herself to the house for some reason, opened the door and came to the door and knocked lightly:
Knock knock~
Xuanji Zhenren Yingying got up and opened the door, and it could be seen that the Queen Mother was standing at the door with her hands folded on her waist, looking a little worried.
"Huai Yan, what's wrong? Want to hang out and have fun? ”
“……”
The Queen Mother had just been smacked, and her mood had not calmed down until now, and she had not cleaned up the red jade that had not been long-sighted for a long time, and she did not dare to go out until the night terror hall was gone.
This kind of bullied thing, she didn't dare to say it, but she couldn't just go against the grain, seeing Xuanji Zhenren, she thought about it and spoke:
"Shui Shui, you must teach the martial arts of the palace seriously, and you are not allowed to be lazy or deliberately make the palace happy."
Xuanji Zhenren has not taught the Queen Mother martial arts, and the Queen Mother's talent is definitely not bad, when she was a child, she was praised by her senior brother Lu Taiqing, three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, so she didn't learn to become famous.
Seeing that the Queen Mother wanted to practice martial arts on a whim, Xuanji Zhenren smiled:
"Why did you suddenly remember to practice martial arts?"
The Queen Mother couldn't say that she wanted to correct the style of night terrors, but said:
"This time I went out, the night terror hall is so dangerous, I can't help, the night terror hall is injured, I can't be so slack in the future, not to mention the enemy, at least the ability to protect myself."
Xuanji Zhenren bowed slightly, feeling that the Queen Mother was really here this time, and let the Queen Mother enter the house at the moment:
"Martial arts is not a day's work, and it is difficult to master it in a short time. You have a good foundation, why don't you follow He He to learn light skills? She can't do anything, but her escape skills are top-notch, and she has a lot of tricks......"
Syllable!
Fan Qinghe straightened up, his clothes bulging, and he seemed to want to scare this demon girl, but the Queen Mother couldn't speak, so she said in a deep voice:
"If you can't teach it, just cool off, I'll come."
The Queen Mother was dragged back by the dangerous light this time, and was pinched by the Night Terror Hall, so she really made up her mind, and said at the moment:
"Teach together, this palace doesn't believe it, Shui'er is so lazy that he can practice into the Eight Great Kui, and this palace can't practice ......"
Fan Qinghe liked this very much, but it was not good to follow the demon girl who was careful with her, so she just nodded in approval and encouraged the Queen Mother......
Thank you for the big guy's reward!
