Chapter 14 The Miao Girl Ganlan

"Wuchen, you can see the place that Uncle found for you. ”

Lin Yi pointed to Qin Huailou with a seal in front of him, and laughed, while his eyes couldn't help but look at Li Wuchen.

Li Wuchen looked at Lin Yi with black lines on his head, and several big characters were written on his face......

'Hurry up and praise Uncle Kua, hurry up and praise Uncle Kua, isn't Uncle amazing?'

"Uncle, you are amazing!"

Li Wuchen regretted it after saying this......

When Lin Yi heard Li Wuchen's praise, the whole person seemed to float up, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "If you have something to do in Nanding City in the future, just tell your uncle, and your uncle will help you settle it." ”

Li Wuchen grinned awkwardly, took a few steps back, and said to Lin Yi, "Uncle, I want to go to Pingshan." ”

No matter how this matter was resolved, Li Wuchen was indeed favored by Lin Yi, which was irrefutable, and he wanted to do something for Lin Yi.

Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, the previous joy was like being poured with a basin of cold water, his face was cold, and he asked Li Wuchen, "What are you doing there? It's not been peaceful there lately." ”

"I want to pick a few herbs that will help Xiao Meng'er's illness. ”

Li Wuchen replied with his hand, what he said was half-true, there is indeed a unique herb on Pingshan, called Snake Belief Grass, but it is not necessary, the bigger reason is to help Lin Yi solve the problem of toast.

"That's right..."

Lin Yi touched his chin, pondered for a moment, and asked with a concerned face, "There has been a recent chaos in the toast there, do you need me to send a team of elites to escort you?"

How could Li Wuchen not hear the taste of his words, and shook his head, "There are many people, and Wuchen still has a skill, and it is not a big deal to be trivial." ”

Lin Yi couldn't resist Li Wuchen, so in the end he could only order someone to bring a military horse and send him out of the city.

Li Wuchen walked out of the city to the south, and according to the map given by Lin Yi, it only took less than half a day to arrive at Ping'an Town near Pingshan.

Looking up at the bright sun hanging high in the sky, I suddenly felt a dry taste, fortunately, there is a tea shop not far away, and the business is not bad, although there are only five small square tables, but basically there are people sitting and resting.

"Shopkeeper, please have a drawer of steamed buns and a cup of tea. ”

Li Wuchen tied the horse to a tree on the side and found a relatively shady place to sit down at the table with others.

Opposite her was a young girl dressed in Miao costume, and beside her sat two strong men dressed in similar costumes.

"You're not afraid of us?"

The Miao girl looked at Li Wuchen with some curiosity, beside her, all the Dayan people were far away, but this little Taoist priest dared to sit with them.

"They are all the people of Dayan, why should I be afraid of you?"

Li Wuchen smiled and took the steamed buns and a cup of piping hot tea handed over by the store.

After he said this, the people around him all looked at him with the eyes of fools, and they thought that how could the Miao people be compared with the Dayan people?

On the contrary, the Miao girl and the two strong Miao men became interested, looking at Li Wuchen, the Miao girl smiled and said, "You have some meaning, we are all Miao people, where did the Dayan people say?"

There were nine buns in the cage, Li Wuchen took out two, stuffed them into his mouth, pointed to the remaining seven buns in the cage with chopsticks, and said vaguely, "My second master once said that there were seven kingdoms before Dayan, and before they were unified in Dayan, maybe they were Yan people, Qi people, Chu people......"

After saying this, Li Wuchen took another sip of tea and exhaled happily.

But he was comfortable, and the other Dayan people were uncomfortable, and several of them stood up, ready to teach this boy a lesson. As soon as he rolled up his sleeves, he found that the strong Miao man at their table slowly pulled out the saber at his waist, showing a fierce light on his face.

"Don't pay attention to them, just by what you said today, I am willing to make a friend with you, my name is Ganlan. ”

Gan Lan said, stood up, clasped his hands into fists, and saluted Li Wuchen.

"My name is Li Wuchen. ”

Li Wuchen followed the other party's example and bowed.

"I will remember you, Li Wuchen, if you have the opportunity to come to Pingshan, I will definitely not get drunk with you. ”

Gan Lan was very bold, and after the three of them and Li Wuchen got to know each other, they separated.

Riding his horse in a hurry, he needed to get to Pingshan County before dark.

An hour later, when the sun was setting, Li Wuchen finally arrived, but found that he couldn't enter the city at all.

This is not to say that he will not be allowed to enter, and he will not be able to enter at all, hundreds of elite Miao people, crowded at the gate of the city, holding long knives and sharp blades, scolding at the appearance of a county commander on the city wall.

"Dog officer, there is a kind of you come down, you see if we chop you to death. ”

The county official seemed to have long been accustomed to this scene, and sneered: "Gan Tong, if you come up, I will see how long you can hold it, and when the imperial army arrives, I will see how you will die!"

Although there are archers on the high wall, they don't dare to let go, once someone dies below, then this matter is completely two concepts, the Miao people are brave, and when they see blood, maybe they will really stage a desperate trick.

The stalemate between the two sides did not last long, and as soon as it was dark, the Miao people withdrew from the city wall and walked back.

After Li Wuchen finished the matter, he stepped into the county seat, and because he was a Taoist priest, the city guards did not make it too difficult for him.

After entering the city, Li Wuchen found a small noodle restaurant, although the owner of the shop was about to close the stall, but he didn't want to lose the last table of customers, so he put away the table and put another one out.

"Thank you. ”

Li Wuchen bowed his hand and looked at the old man in front of him.

A bowl of clear water noodles, drizzled with a little chili oil, fragrant, Li Wuchen took the noodles, and after thanking him, he quickly took two sips.

The noodles were hand-rolled by the shopkeeper, and they were very strong and generous, and only one bowl made him eat a round belly.

Li Wuchen touched his stomach and smiled at the store, "Your noodles here are really a must, better than many of the ones I've eaten." ”

When the old man heard Li Wuchen's praise, he couldn't help laughing, craftsmen, the happiest thing is that others praise their craftsmanship.

"In the past, if you wanted to eat my noodles, you had to wait in a long line......

After saying this, the old man sighed, his expression was gloomy, and even the movement of wiping the table slowed down.

"What's wrong with you?"

Li Wuchen saw that the other party seemed to have something on his mind, and asked in a low voice.

When the old man heard him ask, he stopped closing the stall, but simply sat down and said, "If it weren't for the greed of the county order that angered that group of natives, and came to block the city twice in three days, it would not be difficult for outsiders to see it now." ”

"Oh?"

Li Wuchen became interested and asked, "Then what happened to the county order, that group of natives?"

The old man shook his head and sighed, "The imperial court allocates money and grain to these toasts every year, they are not good at farming, so they can barely make a living with hunting, but now the county magistrate and the local gentry have divided the money and grain, how can you let these natives not be annoyed? How can they not rebel?"

Li Wuchen was stunned for a moment, frowned and asked, "The imperial court doesn't care, don't these natives know to go to Nanding City to find the prefect?"

The old man smiled and laughed at Li Wuchen's innocence, "This group of people have hands and eyes to the sky, how can they sue them? Moreover, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and the imperial court is beyond the reach of the whip!"

Li Wuchen took a deep breath, this matter was much more complicated than he imagined, and chatted with the old man for a few more words, and after sorting out the context of the whole thing, he helped the old man put the stall away and said goodbye.

This night, he settled in the inn, after a day of recuperation, set off to Pingshan, which is the most troublesome place now, he did not plan to listen to the old man's previous words, planned to go to Miao Village to see first.

The mountain road is rugged, and it is not until noon that the exact direction of Miao Village is found.

Yesterday, he could see that the Miao people here were very hostile to the Dayan people, so he didn't rush in.

Standing not far from the tall gate, when Li Wuchen was at a loss, a hand behind him patted him on the shoulder.

Li ...... Plum...... Why are you here?"

The other party is Ganlan, a Miao girl she knows from the tea shop, and at the moment she is carrying a longbow on her back, and at her feet is an adult buck that has lost her breath. She didn't remember what Li Wuchen's name was for a long time, so she simply didn't want to, and asked directly.

Looking at the other party's surprised appearance, Li Wuchen smiled and said, "Miss Ganlan, I came to Pingshan to collect snake letter grass and got lost." ”

"Do you remember me?"

After Gan Lan laughed heartily, she grabbed Li Wuchen's right hand and dragged it to Miao Village, while dragging her mouth and saying, "Yesterday, I said that you must not get drunk and return to my Miao Village, the mountain god blesses, you are here today." ”

The Miao people here believe in the mountain god because they believe that it is the mountain god who brings them life and gives them countless prey.

As Gan Lan entered Miao Village, Li Wuchen felt countless hostile gazes rushing towards him, but it seemed that because he was brought in by Gan Lan, no one did anything unfavorable to him.

The people in the Miao village may be because of the long-term hunting in the mountains and fighting with fierce beasts, so both men and women are strong, of course, the Ganlan in front of her is not as burly as others, her skin is dark, and her muscles are tight, but it adds a wild beauty.
