After Hou Qi surrendered, most of his men followed suit, and they took the initiative to lay down their weapons and ran down the mountain to obediently become prisoners of others. It's just that the son of Hou Qi is very backbone and swears not to surrender, and still leads his troops to resist stubbornly until the last soldier, and then he is captured.

At this point, all the bandits of the Houqi Department on Peach Blossom Mountain have been wiped out, and the danger of Li Shimin, the king of Qin, has finally survived. At this time, on the one hand, Qin Qiong asked Cheng Yanjin to set up defenses in all directions, pacify the surrendered army, and strictly defend it; on the other hand, he sent a great order from the king of Qin to urgently recruit people from all walks of life to come to King Qin; finally he personally led his soldiers with high martial arts to risk turning over through the harrier of the eagle's beak cliff and rushed to the peach blossom cave to rescue Li Shimin, the king of Qin, who had already died, and the remnants of his own guards.

Fortunately, they arrived in time, and it is estimated that it will be a day or two at most, and I am afraid that they will have to meet the corpses of Li Shimin, the king of Qin. After Li Shimin recovered his strength a little, in order to prevent long nights and dreams, he joined forces with the army that came to meet him under the escort of Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin, and withdrew his troops overnight and returned to the camp.

After everyone listened to the lone wolf, the doll seemed to suddenly remember something, and said loudly: "By the way, Brother Wolf, I remember that when you were in the sky of Fairy Mountain, you once told us the story of what general Li Shimin also canonized. I don't know if he later had any grace on this Peach Blossom Mountain? It stands to reason that this Peach Blossom Mountain, especially the harrier turning over and the Peach Blossom Cave behind the Eagle's Beak Cliff, have made great contributions to him. It is said that the credit is much greater than that fairy mountain. ”

Lone wolf said: "This is really not, not only is there no stone inscription on this mountain, but even some of our YZ City records are not recorded at all." Even the origin of the name of this Dragon Protector Ridge is just a folk legend. ”

The doll said: "How can that Qin King Li Shimin be like this, this is a little inconsistent with the glorious image of this buddy in history, how can he be so favoritism?"

Mengshan Turtle laughed and said loudly: "Little doll, you don't know anything." You can imagine that in the Fairy Mountain, Li Shimin, the king of Qin, just retreated tactically, and it was regarded as taking the initiative to attract the enemy army to hold on to the danger, and then flanked the reinforcements up and down, and finally broke the enemy army and won the final victory. In this way, he will naturally publicize it, firstly to show his martial arts strategy, and secondly, to show that he knows how to repay his kindness, even if the mountains and rivers are kind to him, he will never forget it. And in this Dragon Guard, what is going on, this is actually a failure of his 'Wheat City'. In fact, from the beginning, he was greedy for merit and too lightly attacked the enemy, so he got into the trap of the giant Hou Qi step by step. At that time, if it weren't for Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin coming to the aid in time and desperately saving each other, it is estimated that this guy would have been in the peach blossom cave a long time ago. If you think about it, how could he bring up this kind of mess again, I'm afraid that even if someone else occasionally mentions it, it will make him angry. ”

Xiao Qingfeng said: "Don't say it, today, our door master is thinking clearly, and the analysis is really so interesting, hehehe......"

The dumb man said: "Yes, there is still such a legend in the local area, saying that it was the Qin back then."

After Wang Li Shimin escaped from the Peach Blossom Cave, he saw that the soldiers he brought that day were almost all killed and wounded, even Qin Qiong's men were more than half of the casualties. He couldn't help but feel ashamed and ashamed, and in a fit of rage, he pulled out his sword and slashed it viciously at a huge rock standing on the top of the mountain. Unexpectedly, this boulder was split in two by him, and then he flew up and kicked half of it off the top of the mountain, and at the same time threw his sword, which had been broken in two, into the back mountain. Then he asked Qin Qiong to use his tile surface four-edged gold ornament, and carved a big 'Du' character on the remaining half. ”

The doll said: "Good guy, this guy is really creative." ”

Dumb said: "It is said that the word 'Du' is the battle of Peach Blossom Mountain, which is the 'only' fiasco in his life." Regardless of the truth or falsity of this legend, but later this Peach Blossom Peak was called the Unicorn Peak. To this day, on the top of the Dujiao Peak, you can still see the boulder several meters high, and on the sliding plane towards the sun like an axe and sword, you can indeed vaguely see the big word 'Du'. And this boulder was naturally given a resounding name by the later good deeds, called the King of Qin's Sword Test Stone, which has been passed down to this day. ”

Jing Xin said: "There are so many stories and legends in this small dragon protection ridge, this time I have to pay attention to it by the way, maybe I can really find some secret stone inscriptions and other corroboration on this mountain, hehehe." ”

Laughing Maitreya said: "That's it, I'll also look for it and try to find the broken sword that Li Shimin, the king of Qin, threw down back then, hahaha." ”

The little Taoist priest said: "It doesn't matter if anything else, it's just that for a long time, because of various coincidences, I have never been to this Dragon Guarding Ridge." This time, I'm going to take a good look at the harrier of the eagle's beak cliff and turn over, and then go to the peach blossom cave in the back to see if I can find the legendary chain hole. ”

While talking, under the guidance of the lone wolf and the mute, everyone has arrived at the foot of the mountain behind the mountain of the main peak of Hulong Ridge, the unicorn peak.

Everyone stood at the foot of the mountain, following the direction pointed by the lone wolf's trekking poles, and looked up from afar. In the dense bushes, three almost parallel valleys can be faintly seen, which extend upwards from the foot of the mountain a little upward, the longest one is almost more than 200 meters, and the shortest is about 100 meters.

According to the lone wolf, the depth of these three valleys is more than three or four meters, and in some places it is even more than ten meters deep. It may be that in recent years, the government has strengthened the protection of wildlife, coupled with the relatively rugged natural environment in the valley, which has gradually formed a good environment for wildlife.

On weekdays, there are many small wild animals such as pheasants, hares, badgers, etc., and occasionally you can find some common non-venomous snakes in the north, and of course, there are many beautiful wild birds that like to inhabit here.

In addition, based on the direction and general situation of these three valleys, many people speculated that the ends of these three valleys should be three large cliff tombs of the Han Dynasty built on the mountain. Because, in the territory of YZ City, more than a dozen Han Dynasty cliff tombs have indeed been discovered and identified.

Moreover, these three parallel valleys, only from the appearance of the appearance, do have a certain similarity with those Han tombs that have been discovered. It's just that in all the local chronicles, it is not found in Hulongling

"My Iceberg Beauty Wife"

In this place, there was a record of a cliff tomb in the Han Dynasty.

There is not even a record of large tombs of other dynasties in the future. Moreover, after some so-called expert field investigations, they also made corresponding positive conclusions that these three valleys are not traces left by the cliff tombs of the Han Dynasty, and there will definitely be no large cliff tombs of the Han Dynasty here.

However, there are still some people who still believe that these three valleys are most likely the burial ditches left over from the great tombs of that dynasty. However, it is very likely that the host at that time suddenly encountered some major changes, so that the excavation work was forced to stop. The tomb was not finally built, and only these three deep burial ditches were left to be abandoned here, and finally disappeared.

Due to the overgrown weeds and shrubs in these three valleys, the steep rock walls on both sides, and the daunting depth, there are few people who dare to go deep into these three valleys on a normal day. After all, the shrubs that the locals call tiger thorns all around the valley and the barbed-covered wild vines that cling to them all year round are a natural fence that is insurmountable.

To put it bluntly, there is both danger and no special scenery, and if you are not careful, your clothes will be scratched and damaged, which is a trivial matter, and sometimes you may be easy to get in and out of the difficulty, so even those senior old donkeys are generally unwilling to go easily.

As for the average tourist, when they see the safety warning signs around them and the barren situation in the valley, they are naturally discouraged. So, this place is very safe, and I haven't heard of any security incidents over the years.

It's just that the cleaning up of the outdoor garbage that falls in the valley every year has become quite a headache. Even so, in the early spring and late autumn seasons of each year, some outdoor volunteer organizations still come spontaneously to carry out this "difficult" clean-up work.

Of course, if you are lucky, you will also get some unexpected "small gifts" in the depths of the valley, such as some edible edible mushrooms and some non-toxic small wild fruits, and sometimes you will even be lucky enough to encounter some wild medicinal herbs that are usually difficult to see. As for the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, ginseng, and He Shou Wu treasures rumored in the rivers and lakes, they can only be "encountered" by themselves in dreams.

After everyone was ready, Lone Wolf emphasized a few safety matters in particular, and then assigned people to start the official operation. Due to the large number of people, the troops were divided into three groups, in groups of three, and acted at the same time.

The lone wolf took the laughing Maitreya and the little Taoist all the way, they were stronger and were in charge of the longest valley in the middle. The mute took Meditation and Doll all the way, and because there were two "female comrades" among them, they were supposed to take special care of them, and they were in charge of the shortest valley to the east. Xiao Qingfeng took the prodigal son and Mengshan turtle all the way, and was responsible for the rest of the valley to the west.

Since Mengshan Turtle's body had not fully recovered, according to Xiao Qingfeng and the lone wolf's intentions, they originally wanted to arrange for him to stay on it, not wanting him to participate in the operation. But Mengshan Turtle resolutely disagreed, insisting that there must be blessings and hardships, and in the end he had to agree to his actions. Fortunately, they have a powerful character such as the prodigal son, and he can't do much to follow, so it should be a pleasant trip.
