Chapter 107: Falling off a cliff
Yang Shucheng ran towards the deep mountains in the west, although the snow had stopped this morning, but the snow in the mountains was very thick, and there was a vast white snow everywhere.
The road in the mountains was indistinguishable, so Yang Shucheng had to perform Taiqing Qigong and run on the snow, but he didn't realize that he had run into the mountains more than ten miles away.
It was almost noon, Yang Shucheng ran through a wide area, only to see a small thatched hut built on the hillside, Yang Shucheng unconsciously slowed down.
At this moment, the hut made a "bang", the door made of twigs opened, and a middle-aged man with a bearded face walked out.
The man stood on the hillside, obviously seeing himself, there was only one pedestrian in the mountain, Yang Shucheng couldn't dodge, so he had to step forward.
But the man opened his mouth first and asked, "Who is it?" Running into the mountains? ”
Yang Shucheng had no choice but to say truthfully: "From King Shen's mansion, it snowed last night, and I came to the mountains to play." ”
"It's cold, it's warm in the palace, how can you run into this barren mountain and wilderness?"
Yang Shucheng said: "The palace is a rich family, I am a flat-headed common people, I don't agree with them, so I ran to the mountains, and I am used to being free." Feeling that people wouldn't believe him, he said, "Maybe I can catch a sika deer alive and bring it back, so that the prince will be happy." ”
The man looked up at the sky for a moment and said, "It's cold outside, come to the grass hut." ”
Yang Shucheng saw that he was warmly invited, so he had to follow him into the thatched hut, which was narrow, with a bed, made of several tree poles, covered with dead grass, and a small open space in front of it, on which wild things such as roe deer, chickens, and rabbits were placed. Apparently the owner of the house is a hunter.
The man said, "I just got up, you sit down first, it's cold, I'll make a fire." ”
Yang Shucheng took the opportunity to ask the man: "May I ask the surname of Haohanzun?" ”
The man lit a fire and said, "I have been alone in the mountains for more than 20 years, and I have come alone, and I have forgotten who my name is." I want to ask the son's surname, why did he go to King Shen's mansion? ”
Yang Shucheng had to tell the truth that his name was Yang Shucheng, a native of Yangjiawan, because King Xiaofu wanted to go to Anhui to seek refuge with Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang, he escorted him forward, and went to King Shen's mansion halfway, and told that person 1510.
The man said: "It seems that Yang Shaoxia is also a person who is anxious for justice and justice, and he admires him very much." ”
Yang Shucheng said: "The predecessors are not Henan accents. ”
The man said: "I am from Hebei, no home and no business, first in the North Taihang hunting life, these years riding a cow, running to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to hunt, more than ten days ago, only came to Dabie Mountain. ”
The fire is already burning. As the middle-aged man spoke, he quickly skinned the two hares, put them on a branch, and roasted them on the fire. He's not lying, he's a real hunter.
It didn't take long for the scent of the hare to waft up.
The hunter handed a hare to Yang Shucheng and said, "If you don't dislike it, please eat a hare." ”
Yang Shucheng took the rabbit in hand. The hunter turned around and lifted a black clay pot and said, "Yang Shaoxia, don't be too thin with wine, drink wine to warm up." ”
It's already afternoon, and I'm hungry, the two of them are nibbling on rabbit meat, and you and I are drinking the wine in the jar one by one.
The two of them finished drinking, and seeing that the sky outside the hut had also darkened a little, Yang Shucheng said to the hunter: "Thank you for your hospitality!" I'm leaving. ”
The hunter didn't keep it either, but said that they would meet again.
The hunter sent Yang Shucheng out of the hut. Yang Shucheng walked north, indicating that he was going back to Shenwangfu. He didn't dare to perform light skills, and slowly walked out of the valley.
Yang Shucheng saw that the hunter was out of sight, but he still endured his temperament, walked four or five miles away, and saw that it was snowy and silent, so he let go of his footsteps and ran towards the northwest.
After running for about seven or eight miles, it was estimated that it was not very far from the villa of the King of Ease, so he slowed down and walked north step by step.
Walk up a peak and get ready to take a look at the location of the lodge. When you look at it, the mountain villa is at the bottom of the peak, and you can only see the houses of the mountain villa, high and low, hidden in the dense woods. The area of King Shen's mansion is not large, but the houses are neat and tall, showing glory and wealth; The size of the villa is very large, and although the houses are sparse, it seems that the owner is rich.
Under the peak, there is a narrow valley, the valley is full of low trees, a path looms, and the fragrance wafts in the air, thinking it is the fragrance of plum flowers.
This is a harsh winter, how can there be plum blossoms? Standing on the peak and looking down, I only saw the white mist steaming in the valley, there were a few mountain springs, and the mountain springs were warm and hot, and the plum was steamed open.
Yang Shucheng looked into the plum forest, but saw two young women among the plum blossoms. The spring water flowed, and there were several stone benches by the spring, and a woman sat on the stone bench, and her maid ring stood beside her.
I saw that this woman had thin eyebrows and bright eyes, a fair face, medium stature, and white clothes, which made her slender and slender, and had the appearance of a shy flower in the closed moon.
I saw that she was looking at the plum blossoms, with an elegant posture, and she was really a fresh and refined beauty. Compared with Wang Hongping on the side of Taihang Mountain, it is a different charm.
Yang Shucheng hid on the peak, looking at it in a trance, when suddenly there was a sound behind him, he turned his head sharply, only to see a bearded man, pushed himself, and he couldn't help himself, falling straight down the valley from the peak.
The hillside was steep, and there was nowhere to grasp it, so I had to hold my head in my hands and roll down the hill like a ball.
Soon rolled to the edge of the spring, but fortunately did not fall into the spring water, so as not to become a drowning chicken.
There was thick withered grass and thick snow on the edge of the spring pool, and although Yang Shucheng fell down heavily, he was not injured.
As soon as Yang Shucheng touched the ground, he immediately made a spin and stood up, and first saw two stunned faces.
Although the two women looked at the uninvited guest who flew down from the sky, they did not shout, but "brushed" and pulled out the long sword at their waist, the tip of which was pointed at him.
Yang Shucheng hurriedly said: "I was walking on the mountain and accidentally slipped down. The snow was slippery. Sorry, sorry to disturb both. ”
The young lady didn't say anything, and the girl said, "It's so bold, there are barren mountains and mountains in front of you, why did you come here?" To be honest, a sword will kill you. ”
Yang Shucheng said: "I walked on the mountain ridge, smelled the fragrance of plum here, and before I knew it, I walked to the snow peak, and my feet slipped and I fell down. Please forgive me, I am grateful. ”
The young lady said, "This is a private place, you can go quickly." ”
Yang Shucheng looked at the steep mountain wall, smooth as a mirror, and climbed up the mountain from here, the posture must be ugly. The young lady saw that he was embarrassed, and she was also understanding, and said:
"Please come out of the mountain from this side."
Yang Shucheng thanked him and had no reason to stay any longer, so he turned around and walked down the mountain.
Here, the young lady had already ordered her family to sweep away the snow and reveal a mountain path that meandered beside the stream and zigzagged to the outside of the valley.
Yang Shucheng walked forward on the mountain path. The young lady and Yahuan followed far behind.
Yang Shucheng saw the young lady walking slowly, and couldn't help but have nothing to say: "My name is Yang Shucheng, and I want to go to Anhui to defect to Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang." There are many abrupt today, please forgive me. ”
The young lady didn't speak, but the girl said, "Less and more mouths, or a sword will kill you." ”
Yang Shucheng didn't dare to say much, and slowly walked forward.
This young lady was none other than the only daughter of the King of Pleasure, named Moulin.
Today's weather is cold, Miss Mu Lan is sitting in the house, there is a charcoal fire in the house, but she feels warm, she is holding a copy of Yang Wanli's "Jianghu Collection" of the Song Dynasty, and there is no song to watch.
Approaching dusk, Miss Moulin suddenly thought that the plum blossoms in the valley had not been seen for several days, so she asked Yahuan to watch them with her.
In fact, the plum blossom has already opened, and today's snow viewing shows the cold flavor of the flower. The yellow plum blossoms are tilted upward, and the flowers contain white snow, but the fragrance is revealed from the snow, and the fragrance is more and more fragrant.
Miss Moulin sat by the spring pond and watched the plum blossoms, not beware of a sudden fall from the mountain.
This Xiaoyao Wang has a strong family and many families, and it is absolutely unkind to the intrusion of strangers. It's just that Miss Mu Lan is kind by nature, and she wants to take advantage of the fact that no one is looking at her, and she wants to send Yang Shucheng away as soon as possible.
The group of three people walked forward, turned a mountain bend, but saw a person walking in the distance.
The man also saw Yang Shucheng, so he shouted: "Okay, you kid, you don't want to live." ”
