Dongxue County,

There are many mountains and rivers in the county, mainly in the Fuhu Mountains, the mountains stretch for more than hundreds of miles, there are big rivers flowing through the mountains, the grass and trees are lush, there is no lack of all kinds of rare and exotic grasses in the mountains, all kinds of birds and beasts, it can also be regarded as a treasure land.

Xie An County, Gushan Town,

A small town more than 20 miles outside the Fuhu Mountains,

On the sheep intestine trail,

Hundreds of iron horsemen kicked up puffs of smoke and dust, and looking down from the top of the mountain, the iron horsemen looked like a long snake and ended more than a mile, not for pomp or anything else, but this road was too narrow, and could only accommodate a few horses and march in rows.

"Fuck it!"

"It's really a veritable Lingyin Temple!"

The young man in the python robe looked at the endless mountains in the distance and was a little distracted, and then scolded with a wry smile, originally with tens of thousands of Liangzhou iron horses to the east, but when he arrived in Dongxue County, the county seat was all left outside the city to set up camp.

It was also yesterday when I arrived in Dongxue County that I knew why this "Lingyin Temple" had the word "Lingyin", and it was really hidden in the depths of Zhong Lingyuxiu's mountain.

"Half an hour's rest!"

"Hundred commanders, how many miles ahead are there to Gushan Town?"

The young man looked at the winding path in front of him for a while, Dongxue County was four or five hundred miles away from Shangjing, relying on the stirrups, and the benefits of the horseshoe were also carried by tens of thousands of iron horsemen for two days before arriving, and now they can be regarded as sleepy and lacking horses.

"His Royal Highness is still more than twenty miles away from Gushan Town!"

Bai Xiaosheng pulled out of the front road, and the guards around him also turned over and dismounted and sat on the ground, and took a closer look at the removal of more than three hundred of the most elite guards, Ximen Blowing Snow and Ye Gucheng, Guihai Yidao and others The top combat power in the Liangzhou army is among them, this trip to the rivers and lakes is affected by the terrain a lot, and many times it is extremely difficult for the army to spread out, such as the current Lingyin Temple.

Stepping on the rivers and lakes can be said to be no less than sweeping the world's gate valves, but there is a difference between the two methods, one tends to be forced, and the other tends to be a civil decree, and there is no sloppiness in the young man's heart.

......

Backing Town,

The closest settlement to the Fuhu Mountains,

According to the location, it is a poor and remote place,

Looking at the town from a distance, there are only three or four hundred households, the houses are not like the green bricks and tiles in the south of the Yangtze River, and they look very depressed and even less atmospheric than the small villages in the land of Gyeonggi, when hundreds of iron horsemen rush in, the town is a lot of trouble, and the biggest scene I have seen in the past is only the county lord with three classes of officials to go through the motions to inspect the people's conditions, and now these hundreds of iron horses are opening the way, as long as they are not a fool, they know that there is a great big man in the town.

The mayor of the town is an old man with gray hair, and now he is standing tremblingly beside the young man, and he has never seen the soldier in Liangzhou and does not know who this person is in front of him, but the murderous aura on this soldier is afraid that it is a little more terrifying than the tiger in the mountains.

"Have you eaten this adult?"

The mayor of the town was cramping in his calves, and the murderous aura on the Liangzhou soldiers was too terrifying, and the cold iron halberd was terrifying just by holding it in his hand at will.

The young man turned over and dismounted and looked at the trembling old man in front of him, and was a little surprised by the ragged appearance of the hundreds of small town residents surrounding the town mountain.

"I didn't eat, if it was convenient for my father-in-law. ”

"Let the people of the town cook some food. ”

The young man spoke, and at the same time, an ingot of fifty taels of official silver fell into the hands of the old man, and the dry food for the march along the way was too greasy to eat, even when he arrived in Dongxue County, he did not delay it, and now he finally arrived at the place, how can he rest and recuperate overnight, and most of the restaurants and inns look like this.

"This ......"

"My lord, more!"

The old man felt the heavy weight in his hand and stopped talking, fifty taels of silver, eight hundred wen and one tael, these more than 300 people are calculated, which is more than one hundred and thirty wen per person, which is definitely considered to be atmospheric.

"No problem. ”

The young man waved his hand and didn't care.

The old man took the silver and the action was also extremely quick, and soon organized some people in the town to go to the open space outside the town to start cooking fire, saying that the old man was also clever, a big fat pig was shouted to the open space, it looked white and fat, it was gratifying, called two butchers to kill the pig and boil water and shave the hair in one go, looking at the thick layer of fat meat, cut in the iron pot, you can smell a smell of meat from afar.

"Interesting old man. ”

The young man said softly, the whole process of cooking on the fire was completed under the noses of the soldiers in Liangzhou, firstly, he lived up to the fifty taels of silver, and secondly, the old man also knew that the eating of a soldier was a peace of mind, and if he did it behind his back, it would inevitably be a little worse.

"But the town is too poor. ”

The young man sat on the ground and looked at the people around him, his brows furrowed slightly, and he looked carefully at the ragged clothes and patches everywhere, and at this moment a dozen and a half big dolls in the town were bare buttocks around the big iron pot stir-frying, and they didn't know the smell of meat for a long time.

But when the pig killer wiped a handful of sweat and took the rinsed pig urine bubble in his hand, all the eyes of a dozen dolls in the village, large and small, fell into the hands of the pig killer.

The pig slaughter banquet was organized in an orderly manner under the command of the old man, and the process here was extremely simple, and he was busy letting the soldiers eat hot meals earlier, and the pork and vegetables were fried and cooked.

"Uncle!"

Beckoning.

"I wonder what's going on?"

The old man stood aside very stiffly, thinking that the nobleman in front of him was not satisfied with this meal, so the cigarette stick in his hand shook lightly.

"I heard that there are many kinds of rare and exotic grasses, all kinds of birds and beasts in the Fuhu Mountains, which are the annual growth of relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and rely on the water to draft the water, but why do you see that the people in the town are like vegetables?"

"I think there is very little oil and water in my stomach on weekdays. ”

After eating the pork in the bowl, the young man rubbed the head of a female doll, and waved his hand to distribute the little meat left in the big iron pot to the group of bare-assed little dolls who were kicking the pig's urine bubble.

"Hey......"

"Adults don't know. ”

Seeing the young man's actions like this, the old man stretched his brows and smacked a dry cigarette and said: "This thing is also strange, originally there were many hunters and medicine pickers at the foot of the mountain, and their ancestors have relied on the mountains for generations, and their lives are prosperous. ”

"But I don't know when it was rumored that there were white-fronted insects in the mountain streams in the forest, there were ghosts in the depths of the dense forest, and there were dragons in the deep mountains of the river, and the people under the mountain didn't believe it at all.

The old man exhaled a thick puff of smoke,

There is helplessness in the words.

"But in the long run, there are many people who have disappeared in the mountains, and the facts are in front of everyone, and everyone can't believe it, the temples and Taoist temples are about to be broken, and the government has also sent people to come, but they have been living for a few days, and there is still no return in the back, and it is strange that the monsters in the mountains never go down the mountain to harm people, but the bad luck of going up the mountain. ”

"People, they are all afraid of death, there are many dead people, few people are willing to enter the mountain, but there are few people who can live and are willing to leave their hometowns, but there is no field at the foot of the mountain to support a large family, so gradually those villages at the foot of the mountain have also moved, our village is now also relying on a few acres arranged by the government to live half-dead, old man, I also estimate that the town will have to move in a few years. ”

Knocking on the cigarette stick, the old man sighed.

"Let the adults laugh, it's really a stomach of bitter water and no place to pour, and now that I have found the nobleman, it is inevitable to say a few more words. The old man extinguished the cigarette and smiled crampedly, but his eyes subconsciously stayed on the cold iron halberd of the Liangzhou soldiers, and some seemed to ask why this gang of killers came here, but the words still swallowed when they came to their mouths.

"It's out of the way, I love to listen to these mountain monsters on weekdays. ”

The young man raised his hand and said, after listening to the old man's words, his thoughts flowed, according to the information given by the Liangzhou Espionage Division, the most likely hiding place of Lingyin Temple in Dongxue County was in this backing town for a hundred miles, and now it happened to be opposite.

"Do you remember when big insects, ghosts, and pythons appeared in this Fuhu Mountain?"

After thinking for a moment, the young man pondered his words and asked again, the current situation is still easier to ask along the old man's train of thought.

"It's probably my grandfather's generation who moved to this backing town. ”

"That's more than 50 years. ”

The old man pondered for a moment before speaking.

"More than 50 years of ......"

The young man muttered softly.

"Hundred commanders, how many years ago did Lingyin Temple close the mountain?"

"Lingyin Temple is also extremely mysterious in the past, few people know where the mountain gate is, but occasionally I can hear that the monks of Lingyin Temple go to other temples to chant Buddha, but fifty-two years ago there was no news of Lingyin Temple, I want to come to the mountain at that time, and the day is just right. ”

"As for the place. ”

Bai Xiaosheng paused, and actually took out a thick book from his arms, wiped off the dust, and looked carefully at the four big characters of Dongxue County Chronicles on the cover, the county chronicles are a kind of local chronicles, a book that records the mountains, rivers, products, humanities and other conditions of a county, and there are also records of some strange stories about the mountains and fields.

"When I entered Dongxue County yesterday, I checked the county records of the early years, which recorded that there were mountain spirits and strange deeds in the subordinate areas of Xie An County, and thousands of county soldiers were sent to encircle and suppress them, but the dense mountains and forests were mixed with a few big insects every time, and the rest of the things were naturally over, and this place happened to be near this mountain town. ”

"Whether it's time or location, it's right!"

"In this way, the mountain gate of Lingyin Temple is almost in the middle of the mountain here!"

Bai Xiaosheng muttered in a low voice, and finally closed the county chronicles.

When the young man heard the sound, he followed Bai Xiaosheng's appearance and looked at the Fuhu Mountain Range, just when the roosters and dogs crowed, and the cool breeze in the mountains blew wide and cold like a knife, and he only felt that the 100,000 mountains were depressed like a lonely grave.

The old man on the side heard it in a fog and didn't know why.

But soon the young man's seat made the latter overjoyed.

"Uncle, if there is a big insect in the mountain that can be used as a blanket with its skin, its bones are soaked in wine, if there is a dragon in the mountain, it is a great blessing, my python robe is just missing a dragon soul. ”

The young man looked at the 100,000 mountains of the Fuhu Mountain Range and muttered softly.

"Now that the location has been decided, it's easy to do!"

"Captain Liu, where is it?"

"The last general!"

The commander of the guard, who was hanging from his waist and embroidered with black and gold python patterns, put down the food in his hand and fell to the ground on one knee in response.

"Captain Liu's palace ordered you to go to Dongxue County immediately, lead 10,000 iron cavalry to block the exits of Xie An County, and block the road down the mountain, if you meet a monk, you will be stopped, if you resist and kill, you must arrange it properly before tomorrow, and there must be no mistakes!"

"The last general, take the order!"

Captain Liu rode over and ran out of the town with three or two orders.

"Zhu Yuankui, where is it?"

"The last general!"

"General soldiers, this hall orders you to go to Dongxue County City immediately, and lead 800 great cadres into the mountain town before the beginning of tomorrow, and enter the mountain with the main hall!"

"The last general, take the order!"

Looking at the little fires that disappeared on the mountain road,

The young man withdrew his gaze.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the battle for tomorrow is please. ”

"At the beginning of the horse's journey, the temple does not want to be in chaos. ”

The young man's gaze swept over everyone in the field, there were three or five third-grade masters in charge, all of them were sword cultivators who were fighting against the unparalleled in the world, plus Yan Thirteen, who had now broken through the second grade, it was more than enough to capture a Lingyin Temple, but his goal was to annihilate, and he said that he wanted to kill, so he should naturally kill them all.

The Master of the Three Rings has gone to the Western Land of Bliss,

The remaining monks of Lingyin Temple miss it tightly,

After all, the most important thing in a family is to be neat and tidy.

......

sub-time,

In the depths of Fuhu Mountain, the insects chirp constantly,

The blue brick ancient temple curls green smoke from the incense burner,

In the huge main hall, an old monk with a robe and kind eyebrows sits quietly in front of the Buddha and gently wipes the incense ash on the offering platform, the candlelight is faint, the ancient well does not wave, and the moonlight is planted in the courtyard with a huge Bodhi tree, leaving a little light and shadow.

A string of relics was enshrined in front of the Buddha,

The old monk's hand paused in the air, and finally it didn't fall, but he just sighed, his senior brother had been dead for nearly two months, and his body had been devoured by the three knives of the nasal passage, and he only found these relics in the embers.

After the old monk wiped the incense ash, he sat in front of the Buddha!

Looking at the string of relics for a long time, his lips squirmed slightly.

One sitting is the night,

The mountain is foggy, unconsciously, the old monk's robe has been stained with dew, at the beginning of the hour, slowly get up, the breath flows away, the clouds and mist disperse, the old monk's lips are closed, and the sound of the beam is a mantra of death.

Listen to it, there is a sound of beating leaves through the forest outside the ancient temple, suddenly, like a majestic rain beating the bamboo forest outside the temple, but the old monk looked up and there were no raindrops falling in the sky.
