Chapter 16: Clouds Cover the Mountain
Xue Zhong and his entourage led their troops over several hills and low mountains, and finally had a sense of seeing the sun from the clouds at this moment.
It was just past noon, and the sun was blazing.
But it's autumn, and it's not hot.
Standing on the hill, you can almost overlook the entire Dangshan Pavilion at this time.
The village of Dangshan Pavilion is located in a small flat area between the mountains, and the surrounding hilly fields do not cover more than 50,000 acres.
Surrounded by mountains, this environment is indeed good, but the whole Dangxian County is in the middle of the mountains, and it will not seem so extraordinary here.
At least in the eyes of these people, it's just a backwooded place.
Outside the village of Dangshan Pavilion is a large river, and many villagers are constantly surrounding the river with hoes or hands.
Flash floods have flooded many fields, but now that the floodwaters have calmed down, the river has now expanded to nearly nine meters wide.
In order not to delay the autumn planting, now the entire villagers of Dangshan Pavilion have been mobilized, both young and old, all along the riverside fields and embankments.
Regarding the flash flood in Dangshan Pavilion, Xue Zhong naturally heard Guo Bei say it.
Therefore, his attention was not focused on the village below the hill at the moment, because at this moment, his gaze had already looked far away at the immortal mountain that Guo Bei was referring to.
"How so? Sure enough, it is worthy of the fairy mountain fairyland, good, very good! ”
The sky was clear, the sun was blazing, Xue Zhong looked at the mountains of the so-called fairyland, and he was already amazed for the first time.
His eyes lit up at this time, and Zhao Yu, the eunuch who supervised the imperial history in the rear, was obviously stunned.
"Is it true that there are immortals in this world?"
"The First Emperor has been looking for immortals for decades and has not obtained immortals, so there are immortals in this small mountain village?"
Seeing that the fog was full of immortals, Zhao Yu still had some doubts.
"The first emperor failed to find the immortals, or it can be said that the time did not come, and today the chaos has started, but I don't know that Haotian has the knowledge to send down the immortals for my Great Qin to continue the orthodox inheritance of this Shaohao descendant."
"If you still don't believe it, you can go to that fairyland with me and have a look, won't you?"
Hearing this, Zhao Yu looked at the magistrate of Dang, and then smiled strangely: "The first emperor can be regarded as the time to find immortals?" Lord Xue really dares to say it. ”
"And at the moment, this strange fog may be caused by the abnormal movement of the earth veins, you are so gullible to believe the little pavilion chief of the Guo Lord's family, if you fail to see the immortal this time, I will have to join Lord Xue fiercely."
Xue Zhong's face remained unchanged when he heard this, but he just snorted lightly with his sleeves.
Then he took the first step towards the Dangshan Pavilion at the bottom of the hilly low mountain.
Guo Ming, Guo Bei, and a thousand soldiers in the rear immediately followed.
Before the officers and soldiers arrived, the villagers of Dangshan Pavilion at the foot of the mountain had already seen the army.
Immediately, under the greeting of countless old people, the villagers in the mountain village put down their work one after another, and gathered at the entrance of the village for the first time to prepare for reception.
It's just that Xue Zhong and his entourage have not yet arrived, and during this time, they saw countless people among the officers and soldiers all talking and noisy.
Not only the officers and soldiers, but even Xue Zhong, the magistrate of Dangjun, and Zhao Yu, the eunuch of the Imperial Palace, were all staring at this time, revealing an expression of seeing a ghost and a 'fairy'.
They are not to blame.
What they saw at the moment was too strange and terrifying.
At the beginning, everyone on the hilly and low mountains could not see the true face of the so-called Great Fog Immortal Mountain clearly, but at this time, because the army was getting closer and closer, everyone suddenly discovered the strangeness of the fog-shrouded mountain in the distance.
I saw that just behind the Dangshan Pavilion, a huge whirlpool was rotating on the top of the very abrupt mountain.
The whirlpool swallowed the clouds and spit out the fog, causing the wind, and from a distance, the fog on the entire mountain covered in fog seemed to be constantly rotating around the fairy mountain.
The fog rotated very slowly, but the most striking thing was the huge swirl of clouds that suddenly appeared under the clear sky!
"This !! This!!! ”
"The second and third sons are deceiving me?"
Xue Zhong was dumbfounded, and his heartbeat accelerated.
He looked at Guo Ming and Guo Bei in shock, as if he wanted an explanation.
At this time, Guo Ming and Xue Zhong were already speechless in shock.
As for Guo Bei, he was actually very shocked by this change.
"County Elder, it's not like I deliberately deceive, this immortal mountain didn't have this kind of change at all when I set out for Dangxian!"
"If you don't believe me, you can ask the people of the entire Dangshan Pavilion later."
Guo Bei hurriedly argued, and at the same time, he was still staring at the strange mountain from time to time.
When the army came, all the soldiers did not know what was going on.
Some of the soldiers only speculated that they might have gone out to exterminate a small army of thieves.
For this reason, even when they had reached the hill outside the Dangshan Pavilion before, these soldiers did not notice the so-called foggy mountain.
The soldiers were all nervously on guard, for fear that a thief army would suddenly emerge in the mountains.
And now?
When they reached the vicinity of the Dangshan Pavilion, these soldiers finally saw the mountain in the distance that was shrouded in fog and had a huge vortex of clouds and mist.
"Haotian is above! That... What the hell is that mountain? ”
"What a big cloud whirlpool? I'm afraid that there are immortals who have come to the world! ”
"No wonder we don't have a clear purpose for this trip, it turns out that the county elder has found an immortal?"
"Fairy ???"
“......”
Most of the soldiers in Dangxian County today are forcibly recruited after the defeat of the county soldiers.
In the end, these people are just civilians, and their level of education is not high.
When they saw the immortal mountain in the distance, they were all stunned, and some even threw down their weapons and buckled their heads to worship!
There was a riot in the army, and the three views of the soldiers were also shattered by the impact for a while, and everyone was also shocked and panicked.
Of course, in addition to the panic, there is also a trace of excitement hidden in the hearts of everyone.
This is a fairy!
This is definitely the arrival of immortals!
Under the clear sky, the fog covers the mountain, the clouds and mist surround the mountain and rotate and do not subside, and there is even a fairy cloud vortex in the sky, like a giant dragon absorbing water!
Although there was a little chaos in the army, but soon as the military order was issued, those soldiers quickly integrated these soldiers, let them regain their consciousness and reorganize the army.
In addition to the soldiers, the eunuch Yushi who was in front was also frightened at this time.
He just stared blankly at the immortal mountain in the distance, and muttered:
"Is there really a fairy god in this world?"
He was so shocked that his thoughts were confused for a moment, and he didn't know whether to be frightened or surprised.
And at this moment, a voice had already come from the side of the eunuch Zhao Yu.
"Can the Imperial Supervisor still believe what I said before?"
This voice was a little yin and yang, and the eunuch Zhao Yu looked at Xue Zhong, the magistrate of Dang, who was speaking, and was speechless at this time.
Seeing that Zhao Yu was so shocked by the fairyland that he didn't know how to refute it for a while, Xue Zhong was in a good mood.
However, this Xue Zhong did not continue to be sarcastic, but suddenly approached Zhao Yu, and whispered in his ear under Zhao Yu's puzzled eyes.
Eunuch Zhao Yu's face hesitated at first, but then his eyes became brighter and brighter.
"Is what Lord Xue said serious? You and I have been fighting for a long time, can you really be so kind? ”
"Can there be fake? At this time, when the world is in chaos, what is the point of the dispute between you and me? What's more, I also need to supervise the imperial history, you have a good word in front of me in front of Lord Zhao and His Majesty in Xianyang, just say whether you want to or not, right? ”
The eunuch Zhao Yu did not hesitate, no longer lowered his voice but laughed loudly: "Lord Xue has already said so, what else do I don't want to do, as a eunuch, I don't ask for much, how can I let go of this kind of good thing in front of me?" Haha~"
