Volume 1 The Wind Rises Chapter 64 Two Ghosts

At this point, Cangshan has a total of 19 continuous peaks, which form a vast mountain range, with mountain flowers and different stones, forest springs and waterfalls.

As you climb up the mountainside, you can see a stream formed by the melting snow, which is very refreshing and thirst-quenching.

Halfway up the mountain, you can see a magnificent view.

The old man who sold horses in the town said that if you want to pass a little Cangshan, there are three scenery that must be seen in full view before you can live up to the trip.

Two clouds and one temple. The two clouds are the jade belt cloud, the Wangfu cloud, and the temple is the Taoxi Temple.

A light rain has just fallen on the mountainside, and then there is a white mist gathered on the top of the pine forest at the foot of the mountain. This jade belt cloud, according to the townspeople, is a good omen for a good harvest, and there is also an apt proverb: "Cangshan wears a jade belt, and hungry dogs eat white rice." ”

There is also Wangfuyun, which is as famous as Yudai Mountain, adjacent to the Inland Sea in the north, and according to legend, before the unification of the Great Qi, the princess of a small country in Yanbian fell in love with a hunter on Diancang Mountain, so she eloped here.

Orion saw that the princess could not bear the cold, so he went to the Taoxi Temple on the mountain to steal the monk's robe, but was found by the monks in the temple, and pushed the cloud head with a palm, the princess was heartbroken, split the thick seawater, and turned into a wangfu cloud.

It's a pity that Xia Ze and He Xu's route is from east to west to Daqi, and there is no extra foot, so it is a pity to turn the direction to watch this Wangfuyun.

This point Cangshan has another name, or called Xiongcang Mountain, often have literati and elegant guests from other continents and other countries to travel here, are conquered by the unique and magnificent scenery here, the poetry is prosperous, the inscription is a poem, spread in the world.

Among them, the most famous is this sentence: the frost falls and the bear rises to the tree, and the forest is empty and the deer drinks the stream.

Along the way, Xia Ze and He Xu saw no less than ten sturdy black bears, climbing on trees, just vigorously climbing on trees, watching from afar, as if they were very afraid of people. In the stream of the roadside path, occasionally one or two juvenile elk draw water by the stream, and when people approach, they will jump and run away, which is very cute.

As the height of the mountain progressed, the peak of Diancang Mountain became more and more steep and steep, Xia Ze had to let He Xu get off the white donkey, he led He Xu with one hand, and took the white donkey to his waist. Coincidentally, there was a sudden heavy rain in the mountains, dense with cold raindrops, mixed with fine frost, which hit the face a little painfully.

Just wearing a coat and hat, it is obviously not very able to stop the torrential rain, Xia Ze carried He Xu, He Xu held an oil-paper umbrella in his hand, and walked towards the mountain against the wind and rain, according to their original plan, as long as they arrived at the Taoxi Temple on the mountain, they could temporarily settle down, and when the wind and rain stopped, it was not too late to go out.

Obviously, the merchants who were in a hurry also planned to do the same, and they all rushed to the mountains non-stop against the wind and rain.

Unexpectedly, when there was still some distance from Taoxi Temple, there were two officers and soldiers, carrying a big knife, and shouted unceremoniously at the merchants who went up the mountain: "There are man-eating tigers in this mountain, and the road in Cangshan at the beginning of the day is closed, this road is not passable, you find another way." ”

The merchants who were drenched in the heavy rain and fell into soup chickens all exclaimed.

A touch of brilliance flickered in Xia Ze's eyes, if the tiger in this mountain walked by, it would leave scattered earth qi on the path he had walked, but he raised his eyes just now, not to mention the earth qi in this mountain, there was no extra tiger hair.

He wanted to see what kind of medicine these two people were selling in the gourd.

A merchant shouted: "This military master, it has rained heavily on this mountain, and now it is really difficult for us to find another way, is there really a man-eating tiger in this mountain?" ”

The soldier spat out: "Are you suspecting that Lao Tzu deliberately made things difficult for you?" ”

The big knife with a ring head, in the rain curtain, the cold light appeared, and the gloomy atmosphere was gloomy.

The merchant's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly made amends for his crimes.

The other, the officer and soldier with a meaty face sneered, and raised two fingers: "If you want to go over, you have to see if you understand the rules?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the merchants present all understood what kind of goods these two things were, they scolded their mothers in their hearts, and finally they could only admit that they were unlucky and handed over two taels of silver.

The old and young darts were decisive and simple, they walked the rivers and lakes, knowing that in front of them, there were four palanquin bearers and young ladies, and they paid fourteen taels of silver. Some merchants recruited dart head guards, which were originally swallowed by breaking their teeth, and for a while, they could not spare extra silver to dredge, so they planned to return the same way.

Unexpectedly, the man with a full face pulled out his knife to block the way home, and said shamelessly: "Go back, and give money." ”

"This .....," the merchant grimaced.

The officers and soldiers circled around the large box carried by the merchant, lifted the tightly covered curtain, and a mellow aroma of wine came to the nostrils.

He couldn't help but be overjoyed: "It's okay if you don't give money, your cart of wine has returned to the public." ”

The merchant's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly begged: "Master Jun, I can't help it, this wine is my life, and it has spent all my family savings. ”

The officers and soldiers put the big knife on the merchant's body, so frightened that his legs trembled, but he still did not dare to let go.

The young man behind him, who seemed to be a swordsman, a cultivator of the Three Realms, wanted to stop him, but he was glared back by the officers and soldiers with a meaty face, and he was silent.

On this side, another officer and soldier came to Xia Ze's side and stretched out two fingers.

Xia Ze pretended not to understand and said: "This military master, I took my younger brother to Qingshen County to beg for a living, what you say, I don't understand." ”

"Little bastard, don't play tricks with me, don't give money, don't think about it." He said viciously.

"Money? Yes, yes. Xia Ze suddenly realized and put a piece of silver in the officer's hand.

"You know each other." The officer looked at the silver in his hand, and changed his words, "But you take this little ghost, this little money is not enough, make up for his share, otherwise where will you come from." ”

Xia Ze nodded: "Yes, there are some, military master, I have money in the basket, and I still bother the military master to find it himself." ”

In the distance, the man who had passed the pass early turned his head in confusion when he heard these words, and said to his master: "Master, why is this young man so simple, isn't this the soldier in the middle of the ruffian, what a fool." ”

His master just shook his head: "We'll see." ”

The soldier ruffian was not so innocent, he used the ring head knife to pick open the lid of the back basket, and took a look, in addition to some rice oil, soy sauce vinegar and dry food, there was also a gold ingot in the back basket, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and reached out to dig it.

It was such a brief movement, and the ruffian suddenly froze in place, motionless.

The man with a face full of flesh sensed that something was wrong, turned his head and was about to climb the clouds, but unexpectedly there was a golden canopy on the ceiling, and he was caught off guard, hit the canopy, fell to the ground, and his head was bleeding.

Xia Ze ignored the frightened eyes of others, and pinched the necks of the two of them one after another, and in the palm of his hand, there were two green-faced and fanged villains, twisting around, trying to break free.

Two ghosts.
