Chapter 178: Wangdi Mountain
When the two of them said this, they didn't know who yawned, and then their voices became quieter, and they blew the lamp and went to sleep. Hong Chen, who was next door, was completely sleepy, and in the dark, a pair of eyes widened the boss, and his mind was full of conversations between the two.
"The sword, the weirdo, the weird, the ......?"
Hong Chen suddenly had a guess in his heart: Listening to the words of this Senior Brother Ji, it seems that a treasure knife of the Qingcheng Sword Sect was stolen or snatched away by a person with strange martial arts, and in the whole world, there are really few people who dare to pull teeth from the sect gang, could this matter be done by Ji Cha?
The more Hong Chen thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was true. Stealing the treasure knife from the disciples of the Qingcheng Sword Sect, the strange martial arts can make these people unable to get close to the corners of their clothes, and both characteristics can correspond to Ji Cha. Could it be that Ji Cha didn't go to Tanhang Island and came to Nanyue to continue stealing all kinds of divine weapons? But what does this matter have to do with Hanjuan Valley?
With questions and various thoughts in his heart, Hong Chen couldn't sleep for a long time, and finally simply got up, got dressed, put on a broken knife, went out of the guest room, went to the counter and called the guy on duty to open the door, and then led the horse out of the station.
The moon and stars were sparse in the night sky, and the jackdaws on the side of the road were crying, Hong Chen stepped on the horse's back, shook the reins and urged the horse to go quickly: "Horses, horses, you have worked hard to catch up with this night! I want to see Ji Cha as soon as possible." "Before stepping on the snow, he had rested for a short time, and with a neigh, the horses' hooves flew, and they galloped southwest along the avenue.
After a night of horse-travel, Hongchen finally arrived at a small town at the foot of the mountain in the early morning. There were a lot of people at the morning market, Hong Chen got off the horse and found a small stall to eat breakfast, and asked the stall owner by the way: "How far is it from Wangdi Mountain?"
The stall owner pointed to the side of the green mountain and said, "We are actually Wangdi Mountain here." The guest officer doesn't seem to be from Wasteland, is this going to visit Hanjuan Valley?"
Hong Chen nodded: "Yes." Boss, how do you know?"
"Look at your posture, like. The stall owner said, "Riding a good horse and carrying a treasure knife, I saw that the guest officer was a young and promising martial arts young man." In the past two days, there have been many guest officers like you, who have gone to Hanjuan Valley. ”
"Quite a few?" Hong Chen was puzzled when he heard this, "What are so many people going to Hanjuan Valley for?"
The stall owner sighed lightly: "Aren't you here for that weird guy in Hanjuan Valley?"
"The weirdos of the Cold Cuckoo Valley? Hong Chen nodded, and asked the stall owner again, "I heard that this strange man robbed the Qingcheng Sword Sect of a treasure knife, who is he? What does it have to do with Hanjuan Valley." ”
"He's not just snatching a sword from a knife sect!" the stall owner smacked his lips, "Tsk, that strange man has robbed an unknown number of weapons and provoked a lot of enemies, and the sect gangs that have been looking for trouble with him in the past few days are not twenty but seventeen or eighteen, and there are also some idle knights, who are waiting in Hanjuan Valley at the moment." Everyone who goes to Hanjuan Valley basically has to pass through our town, and the Qingcheng Sword Sect you mentioned, I haven't seen anyone come yet. ”
Hong Chen was surprised and delighted when he heard this: it turned out that this person not only robbed the knife of the Qingcheng Sword Sect, but also robbed the weapons of many forces...... Who could this person be if he wasn't Ji Cha? After eating the buns, he threw down a few copper plates, and led the horse towards the mountains to the south.
Compared with those lofty mountains and mountains in the north of Huangrong City, Wangdi Mountain is much more gentle, and after Hong Chen walked into the mountain for a while, he saw a long mountain road, which was expected to lead to the Hanjuan Valley, so he led the horse and stepped on it. On the way, I remembered that yesterday in the teahouse, after the storyteller finished telling "The Legend of the Sky Wolf", when he told the second story, there happened to be a related legend in it.
A long, long time ago, when the state of Pakistan was just established, the first monarch was named Du Yu. He was not a local, but came from far away to teach the local people to cultivate farmland, grow crops, domesticate ospreys, weave nets and forks, and make people live a prosperous life. Because the people worshiped him as the lord, established the kingdom, and honored him as Emperor Wang.
Although Emperor Wangdi allowed the people of Pakistan to live a more prosperous life than before, there are many tributaries of the great rivers in Pakistan, including the Jinjiang River, which are prone to flooding and flooding farmland and houses during the rainy season. Even Emperor Wangdi had no solution to the flood, and no matter how the embankment was reinforced, as long as it rained heavily, it would still be washed away.
A few years later, another young man from outside the country appeared in Pakistan, he called himself the turtle spirit, from the lower reaches of the river, and had a way to control floods. Emperor Wangdi saw the turtle spirit, talked freely, only to feel that the turtle spirit was far-sighted, and there was a warm-hearted heart, the same day to the turtle spirit as a face, and the most beautiful beauty in Pakistan married him, and then ordered him to control the flood.
After his appointment, he led 100,000 Pakistani people to dig canals and canyons to connect the various tributaries of the river in Pakistan, and planted trees in the mountains near the river to strengthen the mountains and prevent landslides in the rainy season from damming the lake. After ten years of hard work, the turtle spirit finally won the people of Pakistan to live happily and peacefully, and no longer have to experience floods.
Emperor Wangshen thought that the turtle spirit had worked hard and made high achievements, and in his old age, the turtle spirit was still in its prime, so he took the initiative to propose Zen to give up the throne. Turtle Ling gladly accepted, and after ascending the throne, he was called Emperor Cong. Under the rule of Emperor Cong, all parts of Pakistan gradually began to trade by water, and became more prosperous day by day.
Emperor Wang, who let go of his authority, also lived in seclusion in the mountains, intending to live in comfort for the rest of his life. However, in recent years, rumors have spread in Pakistan, and many people say that the reason why Emperor Wangdi gave up the throne to Emperor Cong was because when Emperor Cong was outside to deal with the floods, Emperor Wang's heart rose and he had a personal affair with Emperor Cong's wife.
The rumors reached the ears of Emperor Wang, and Emperor Wangdi naturally stood up and explained to everyone. However, the more Emperor Wangdi explained, the more many people didn't believe him, and they all said: "Your explanation is just covering up." At the beginning, it was clear that you fell in love with this first beauty, and pretended to marry her and the turtle spirit, but you immediately sent the turtle spirit to control the water, so that the husband and wife could not see each other for more than ten years. "If you are not ashamed, how can you give up the throne?" "Alas, poor Emperor Cong, his wife was thrown to him by someone else when he ran out, and so did the throne. ”
Where could Emperor Wang endure such rumors and slander, and returned to the palace to explain to Emperor Cong. However, Emperor Cong himself was also very suspicious in his heart, and asked his wife to come out to confront him. Seeing that Emperor Cong doubted herself, the lady was filled with grief and anger, and died by hitting the pillar. Emperor Cong thought that his wife was committing suicide in fear of sin, so he was even more angry and drove Emperor Wang out of the palace.
Emperor Wangdi disappeared after leaving the palace, but Emperor Wangdi used to live in seclusion in the deep mountains but there is a kind of gray bird, the call is "cuckoo-cuckoo", the people of Pakistan think that this bird is the soul of Emperor Wang, so the name of Emperor Wangdi "Du Yu" for this bird named Cuckoo, the mountain where the cuckoo first appeared, it is called Wangdi Mountain.
