Chapter 166 Jin Wuxi Fall, Ghost Town in the Forest

A team of fifty or sixty people.

It's an eye-catching existence everywhere, not to mention it's still riding through the city.

Soon, it attracted countless eyes.

Nanjian City is not big.

Plus they are Han Chinese again.

It can be regarded as extremely rare in the western Yunnan Province where Baiyi is concentrated.

But.

After all, Nanjian City is the world of Zuo's toast.

The third prince is even more notoriously fierce and brutal.

In the city, such a horse.

I'm afraid the road is narrow.

They shook their heads one after another, looking at them with sympathy in their eyes.

It's just that......

In this regard, Chen Yulou did not see it.

It's not about being arrogant, or swaggering.

On the contrary, his reputation in Sanxiang and Sishui is obvious to all.

Especially in the past few years, wars have been all over the place, natural disasters have been repeated, and there are hundreds of displaced people in Chenjiazhuang, and there are countless living people.

In the words of Hua Ma Gui.

Although the Chen family is doing inverted fighting to make a living.

But the three generations of shopkeepers are all bodhisattvas.

The reason for this.

Purely to find a place to eat and rest as soon as possible.

According to his plan, it is best to rush to the territory of Lucheng within three days and arrive at Fuxian Lake.

Now, half a day has passed.

Just a descendant of Toast, a gentleman, how can he have so much leisure to play tricks with him?

Where the slap is bigger, what else is there to ban horses.

Do you really think of yourself as a son of heaven?

The former Qing capital was dead for several years.

Not to mention Zuo Yuanhai, what about this generation of toast?

The immortal cultivators are going against the sky.

Would you care about such a trivial matter?

Not to mention.

From the mouth of the previous soldier, he had learned enough truth.

Weishan Zuo's seems to be a behemoth.

But since the land was changed back then, the strength has actually been weakened by more than half.

Although he is still in charge of one party, there are checks and balances outside the Tusi Mansion, and all aspects have to be constrained.

And after the Republic of China.

The real power of the Weishan Zuo clan has plummeted.

The Tu Prefect was changed to a county Zuo, and he was responsible for many responsibilities such as local guards and people's livelihood, and even major events such as the transfer of troops did not need to communicate with the Tusi Mansion.

In other words, today's Tusi Mansion is an empty shell in the final analysis.

The papier-mΓ’chΓ© tiger is all intimidated by the remnants accumulated over hundreds of years.

That is, those local people and mountain people, who are still afraid of the Zuo family like a tiger, and the road is lively and powerful, and they are already yang and yin to Tusi Mansion.

Predictably.

A few more years.

The Tusi Mansion will truly exist in name only.

"Shopkeeper, there is a Miao family restaurant in front, do you want to try it?"

Between the ups and downs of the horse, a silver bell rang in his ears.

The red girl pointed into the distance with a slight surprise.

Really.

Look in the direction she was pointing.

Chen Yulou saw at a glance the green flag fluttering in the wind, and the horn pattern was drawn on the flag.

That is the most common sign of the Miao family.

Before, in Amizhou, the same was true of the Miao restaurant that Bamo took to.

"Okay, it's his house."

Chen Yulou nodded.

Although it has been a long time.

He really misses the flavor of Miao Village.

The horse team went straight to the outside of the restaurant, and there was such a big movement in the city, so naturally they couldn't hide it from the boss, and they had already greeted it.

It's just that......

He has been in business in Nanjian City for so many years.

I can't figure out the origin of these people.

Riding a horse in the city, didn't you step on the face of the third prince?

If it was one or two merchants, he would have declined, and there was no need to risk offending the Tusi Mansion for the sake of that penny and a half.

In the final analysis, they are just eating on the Zuo's territory, sending people under the fence, whether they live or die, it is a matter of the third son's words.

But so it is.

At this glance, there are fifty or sixty people, all of them freshly dressed and angry, and their temperament is detached.

At first glance, he is not an ordinary person.

He has seen countless people, his eyes are more vicious than snakes, and those horses are all divine horses.

It is countless better than the horses of the third son.

In these days, it is not ordinary people who can afford to raise horses.

What's more, it's still one person and one horse, or even one person and two horses.

I'm afraid that the Tusi Mansion doesn't have the courage.

The wealth of the sky is in front of the door, whether to take it or not, the boss has a decision in his heart in an instant.

"Hurry up, please inside, you can come to the shop, it's really brilliant."

Although it is a Miao person.

But the boss is very familiar with the Chinese language.

With a smile on his face, he invited the group into the store.

"Boss, our horse ......"

The Red Girl reminded.

The boss reacted immediately and said with a smile, "Don't worry, girl, I'll let people take them to the backyard, feed them with good concentrate, and then brush them well." ”

"Okay."

The Red Girl nodded.

That's what business should do.

They are fifty or sixty people, and they are definitely big customers.

Respectfully invite everyone up to the second floor.

Seeing him so up, Chen Yulou and the others will naturally not be stingy, not to mention that this trip has gained a lot, and they will gallop all the way in the afternoon, and they must be full of food and drink.

Immediately ordered a large table of dishes.

Merely.

What makes the boss strange is.

These guests seem to be quite taboo about alcohol.

Even if he said that he would send a few jars of old wine, they refused.

Where did he think that the group was not taboo in alcohol, it was purely because they had drunk hard in Malu Village during this time, and now they were shaking when they smelled wine.

"Well, everyone, wait a minute, I'll go serve the food now."

I went downstairs with a smile.

The boss summoned a nimble guy and told him to go and watch outside the door.

In case someone really comes from Tuxian.

He can also prepare in advance.

But.

Until the dishes were served, there was no movement in the city, which made him mutter.

You must know that the soldiers of Tusi Mansion are like wolves and tigers, as long as there is oil and water to squeeze, they can't wait to skin and cramp people and then dismantle the bones.

These people ignore the rules set by the third son.

Riding in the city.

With their eyes and ears, they shouldn't have been unresponsive for so long.

"Old ...... Boss. ”

Leaning in front of the counter, the boss glanced up the stairs from time to time, and could faintly hear the voices of the guests talking and laughing.

Just when he was puzzled.

Suddenly, there was a panting voice outside the counter.

It's the guy who sent it out.

"It's not for you to stare at ......"

The boss looked unkind and scolded as soon as he opened his mouth, but looking at the unconcealable horror on the guy's face, he reacted at once and swallowed heavily, "Coming?" ”

The guy nodded like garlic.

The boss's face was hard to look at.

After taking a deep breath, I was about to go upstairs to remind.

But before he could take a few steps, the man's voice sounded behind him again.

"Boss, wait, it doesn't seem like he's coming for the guests."

"How?"

The boss stopped.

"That's it...... And here came a man. ”

"One?"

At this time, the boss was also a little confused.

What those government soldiers are best at is bullying the weak, bullying the more and the less, and showing off their power in the city all day long in the name of Tusi Mansion.

If only it was for the guests upstairs.

with their virtues.

That's definitely all sorted.

"I'll take a look."

After hesitating, the boss was still not at ease, and turned around and walked to the door.

After a while, a familiar figure broke into view.

"Lord Kegu......"

He knew all the soldiers of the Tuxian government.

At this moment, you can see people at a glance.

It's just that today he seems a little strange, his face is expressionless, his eyes are empty, and his hands are tightly holding a pair of picture scrolls.

I don't know if it's a painting or what.

These people are greedy to the bone, ruthless, none of them are good, they meet in the city on weekdays, or they avoid it from afar, they really can't hide, so they have to go up to pay respects.

Although he is a lowest-level soldier.

But for them, it is also an unattainable figure.

Thinking of this, he quickly squeezed a smile on his face and bent down to salute.

After all, he doesn't stretch out his hand to hit smiling people, and he knows this well after many years of wandering in the market.

But strangely.

This time, there was no response.

The boss couldn't help but raise his head, but found that Kegu had already walked away and went straight to the second floor.

"Bad things ......"

Seeing this, the boss's heart suddenly chuckled.

How dare you delay.

Quickly chased after him.

But the figure in front of him was extremely fast, and disappeared around the corner in the blink of an eye, and when he chased him to the top of the stairs, he didn't care to breathe, and thought about hurrying forward to say something good.

It's just that......

What shocked him was.

Kegu, who is usually flying and domineering, is now meek and humble like a lamb.

Standing respectfully in front of the man in green shirts.

Hands up.

He handed over the scroll.

Seeing this scene, the boss's face was full of astonishment, which made him unbelievable than hitting a ghost in broad daylight.

"Boss, I want another fish in sour soup."

Just when his heart was beating like a drum and his mind was a mess, a quiet voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

Look up.

A tall figure appeared in front of him at some point, not knowing when.

Just enough to obscure his vision.

"Yes...... Yes, I'll go. ”

Although Kunlun's face was calm, the compelling momentum exuded from his body was overwhelming.

The boss dared to think too much, so he hurried downstairs.

"My lord, this is the map hidden by the county government."

"Okay, well done."

Chen Yulou opened the map casually.

It is worthy of being the Zuo Tusi who has been sitting in West Yunnan Road for 500 years, and his control over this place is really amazing.

Even those inaccessible deep mountains and old forests are marked in detail.

"Go down, don't look back when you go out, just count thirty silently."

This map is definitely a surprise.

Chen Yulou nodded with satisfaction and commanded casually.

"Yes, sir."

Kegu was still immersed in a suddenness.

Just nodded subconsciously.

Turn around and go downstairs.

Under the suspicious gaze of the restaurant owner and the other men, a path went straight through the lobby and walked out of the door.

Something is still muttering in his mouth.

If you get closer.

You'll hear numbers like eleven and twelve.

"Twenty-nine."

"Thirty."

Rumble!

The last number has just fallen.

Kegu's mind was like a thunderclap, a buzz, and the next moment, the picture in front of him flashed, and the trance disappeared, becoming extremely clear.

It's just that......

Watching the people come and go on the long street.

The faces that were in awe and fear of themselves.

His expression became even more dazed.

Isn't it your turn to guard the door today, when did you come here?

Scratching his head, Kegu looked hesitant, completely unaware of what was happening.

"Forget it, I can't remember."

"Let's go back to sleep first."

Shaking his head, Kegu didn't think much of it, recognized the next direction, and then hurried out of the city gate.

The second floor of the restaurant.

Looking through the window to see the scene downstairs.

The group of thieves were even more surprised, and their eyes looking at Chen Yulou were even more awe-inspiring.

The shopkeeper's methods are becoming more and more unpredictable.

They are only regarded as Miao Zhai Gu Masters, Chenzhou Dao Fu and other extraneous means.

But at this moment, Partridge Whistle has already faintly seen some clues.

This is not something that can be reached by magic.

He had also heard of the Circle Light Demon Method, which was used to attract souls, and the person who received this spell was distracted, his mind was chaotic, and he could only end up with a stupid end.

There are three people before and after.

It's just a lack of memory.

Almost indistinguishable from ordinary people.

The control of the mind is already subtle.

The most terrifying thing is that Chen Yulou did not hide it during the whole process, he had the intention to observe, but he didn't even know when to start the operation and when to resolve it.

He couldn't do that before he came.

It's just a trip to Shalong Mountain.

Looking at him again, he has become more and more like Yue Linyuan, and it is difficult to figure out.

I thought that I practiced all the time, and I didn't dare to delay for half a day.

In just two months, from crossing the dragon gate for the first time and breaking through the qi refining barrier, to now having success in cultivating qi, the progress has been extremely amazing.

But I didn't expect it.

Catching up and catching up is difficult to catch up with after all.

"Brother Dao......"

Chen Yulou didn't notice anything unusual about him.

At this moment, his attention is all on that map.

After careful comparison, I have planned several routes in my heart.

Say hello.

Not only the partridge whistle, but also the flower spirits, red girls, old foreigners, and Kunlun on the side all gathered over.

"Now it's either take the mountain road, cross the Zixi Mountains, and then go to Xianren Lake after arriving in Lucheng."

"The second road is to continue the waterway, along the Lishe River, into the Green Juice River, all the way north, through the East River into the Dianchi Lake, and finally to reach the Xianren Lake."

Fingers run over the map.

Chen Yulou briefly explained the two routes.

The mountain road is difficult to walk, and most of them are endless primeval mountain forests, no one forbids the land, but you don't need to go around too much, which can save a considerable part of the time.

As for the waterways.

When they came, they sailed and walked along the river.

From Xiangxi all the way to Nanjian, it took almost a full month, which is too long.

"Mountain road."

Partridge Whistle pondered.

Give your own answer.

Mountain movers have been rampant in the mountains since ancient times, and no matter how mountains and rivers they are, they can be stepped on with just two feet.

Now one person and two horses, the world is so big, where can you not go?

Chen Yulou nodded.

Partridge Whistle's answer was as he expected.

"What about Honggu and Kunlun, what do you think?"

"Naturally, it's up to the shopkeeper."

The Red Girl smiled.

Kunlun on the side echoed the sound of the urn.

"In that case, let's take the mountain road."

Put a roll of the map in your hand, put it back into the waterproof leather bag, and hand it to Kunlun.

The route was determined.

The group did not delay, quickly filled their stomachs, and asked the shopkeeper of the restaurant to help buy a batch of dry food.

Walking on the mountain road, the difficult road is secondary.

The rations of the dozens of people are the key.

Many times, there is not a single family or village within a radius of 100 miles, and even if there is, most of them are natives who do not understand the language and are extremely hostile and wary of outsiders.

If you want to replenish, it is as difficult as the sky.

So.

Take this opportunity.

I prepared what I needed for half a month in one go.

The reason why this is so is purely a rainy day, but it shocks the restaurant shopkeeper a lot.

Nanjian City is such a place.

He has never seen such a big family.

The money is spent like water.

Of course, because he helped with these things, he also made a lot of profits from it, and he never closed his mouth when he smiled.

Wait for the group to get on their horses and get ready to leave the city.

The shopkeeper is eager to send ten miles.

This business alone almost made him a few months or even half a year of money on weekdays.

Fortunately, there was no refusal before.

Otherwise, how could such a splash of wealth get his turn?

It's just that the only thing he can't understand is that most of the Han people come here on weekdays to sell salt, tea, iron, etc., and instead of doing business, these people spend a lot of money.

Let him wander in the market for many years.

I can't figure it out when I break my head.

As for the scene he saw when he went upstairs earlier, he was a smart man, and he knew the truth that he couldn't talk nonsense, so he naturally planned to rot everything in his stomach.

He's just a low-level businessman.

Neither side can afford to offend.

Just pretend that you don't know anything, it's rare to be confused, and you can live a long life.

Wait to get out of the city.

Chen Yulou glanced at the base of the city wall, and the three of Kegu were curled up in a ball and fell asleep.

"Let's go, before sunset, at least reach Longtan Mountain."

Ignored it.

Chen Yulou waved his hand and shouted in a deep voice.

Longtan Mountain is less than 100 miles away from here.

On weekdays, if there is a dragon horse and a war horse, it is not a problem to travel 100 kilometers a day.

But.

At this moment, the eyes are looking east across the Red River.

As far as the eye can see, the entire world is full of vast green mountains and dense forests.

It is estimated that the road of 100 miles is barely enough.

But Longtan Mountain is the closest populated place.

If possible, it would be best to spend the night there.

Otherwise, as soon as the night falls, demons will run rampant, ghosts will revivenation, and there will be many dangers.

In the blink of an eye.

Hours passed.

The scorching sun was gradually setting in the west.

The sky is full of fire and clouds, and the mountains and forests are reflected red, like a golden crow fire nest.

"Shopkeeper, how far is it from Longtan Mountain?"

The red girl wore a red dress, fluttering on horseback, and her face couldn't help but show a trace of worry when she saw that it was getting dark.

It's not that I'm worried about the guys' night blindness.

Instead, they rush at night and are prone to startling horses.

Especially in these deep mountains, jackals spy on tigers and leopards, and a beast roar alarms the horses, which is more terrifying than the camp roar.

"It should be soon."

Chen Yulou had already read the map.

Longtan Mountain is a stone peak, and there is a secluded pool under the mountain, which got such a name.

Mark by map.

It should be not far from here.

But I don't know why it's been delayed.

"Yuan Hong, Kunlun."

"You two form a team, go ahead first, but don't stay too far, just within three or five miles at most."

"Yes!"

Yuan Hong is a genus of apes and was born in the mountains and forests.

After fusing the bones of the mandrill, his strength has increased greatly.

As long as you don't encounter a big demon who condenses the demon pill, you can easily deal with it.

As for Kunlun, as soon as it enters the mountains and forests, it is also like a dragon returning to the sea.

With the two of them exploring the way, at least they are safe.

Answered.

The two rode their horses and hurried east.

It's just that.

It's been less than a mile or two.

Yuan Hong seemed to sense something, stopped his horse, and looked at the dense forest in front of him with a solemn expression.

Seeing its strangeness, Kunlun didn't know what was going on.

But he pulled out the halberd with a brush and held it in his hand, and his blood was bulging.

A pair of amber eyes stared intently for a moment.

I saw the foggy forest.

There is an ancient city in the faint seat.

The gloomy aura in the city rose to the sky, making Yuan Hong can't help but fall into an ice cave, and his cold hair stood on end.

"Kunlun, go back...... Inform the host that we may have stumbled into a ghost town. ”
