Chapter Eighty-Nine: I Met the Mountain Village

Hundreds of miles of travel, where is Gu Qingci still in the original spirit, almost didn't go to beg, it's just that in this thousands of miles of barren mountains, it is rare to meet living people, and there is no place to beg.

The horse is not very angry, and he can't run around a hill, no matter whether Gu Qingci is coaxing, intimidating, or pumping, it will not help. In this case, he simply let the horse go, removed the saddle and harness, and let the horse run away into the woods. And he went into battle lightly, carrying the jade bone sword and the black box to the southwest step by step.

Gu Qingci was on the top of the mountain, looking at the bottom of the mountain.

Under that mountain, there is a long mountain stretching endlessly, and there is still heavy snow on the mountain, and it is a hopeless snow-capped mountain.

Across this mountain group, is a snowfield, the end of the snowfield is Shanhaiguan, Shanhaiguan is Jizhou, south of Jizhou, across the Yellow River, is Qingzhou, there, is the hometown of Ma Shilian.

The mountains are long, the people are not dense enough, the twilight is boundless, and sometimes you will see the smoke curling up, like mist and rain, one after another, a good "copper camel twilight rain". Gu Qing resigned for a long time, and regretted it a little in his heart, if he hadn't let the horse go, he should have gone much farther now.

In the starlight of the night, Gu Qingci saw a little light, and his heart was excited, so he looked in that direction. It's just that there is a good saying, Wangshan runs a dead horse, and this time, Gu Qingci really realized it.

After walking twenty miles, he landed and rested.

Tiyun is a good light skill, but this is the most suitable for fighting, after all, when he is in the air, he can borrow strength by just stepping on his left foot and his right foot, but he is now in a hurry, and he just wants to run forward, if he is in a hurry, it may be good if he is in a hurry.

If it weren't for the characteristics of Jiuyang Divine Skill, the internal force was endless, and he really didn't dare to rush like this.

But fortunately, looking at the distance, there are only less than ten miles left, even if it doesn't work, it won't be long.

At night, Gu Qingci stepped on the snow step by step and came to a small village, which was the only place he saw after leaving Changling County for a day.

It's already this hour, and Gu Qingci plans to spend the night and set off tomorrow morning.

Today was soaked in the snowflakes for a day, the clothes were a lot cleaner, and the internal force of Jiuyang was slightly shocked, and the scorching sun-like luster fluctuated, so the clothes were dried, but they were in the mountains for a whole day, and there were many tattered and damaged places, and there was a bit of ragged charm.

At night, the doors of every house are closed, and the only thing you can see is the dim light peeking through the windows.

Gu Qingci looked casually, found a relatively large family, walked over, and knocked lightly on the door, in this silent night, the "bang" knock on the door seemed very abrupt.

"Crunch"

The door opened, and a middle-aged man with a majestic figure opened the door, and was surprised when he saw Gu Qingci for the first time, and then said respectfully: "This son, who are you looking for?"

The middle-aged man is just a very ordinary person, although Gu Qingci looks a little embarrassed, but his temperament, his crown and hair are tied, and his waist is still jade, all of which reveal that he is extraordinary, at least he is not a flat-headed ordinary person.

When he saw Gu Qingci, he naturally lowered his attitude, this is the habit of ordinary people facing high-status people, and it is also sad.

Gu Qingci couldn't see the middle-aged man's state of mind, and also saw that the other party was very wary of him, so he smiled slightly, took the scholar, bowed slightly, and said calmly: "This eldest brother, Zai is from Changling County, going to Qingzhou, passing by here, it's getting late, it's too late to want to spend the night, I don't know if it's convenient?"

"It turned out to be Xiucaigong," the middle-aged man was very excited, opened the door, and said: "Come on, come on, please come in, please come in, it's just that my place is a little simple, take care of it!"

Hearing the other party's title, Gu Qingci was slightly stunned, but he didn't explain, because he understood that people in this kind of remote area, too many people have a good understanding of scholars.

Gu Qing resigned and entered the house, and immediately thanked: "Big brother, thank you for taking in." ”

The middle-aged man was a little cramped, hehe smiled, and said: "Where and where, it should be, it should be, this person's life, who doesn't have an inconvenient time, everyone you help me and I help you get through!"

Soon, Gu Qingci chatted warmly with this family, and the man also sent him a set of clothes.

After taking a quiet bath, Gu Qingci changed into that set of clothes, the texture of the ordinary peasant man's shirt was much worse than the one he changed, it was not comparable at all, and Gu Qingci's black box actually had a change of clothes, but he didn't want to help others.

This northern border stopper, speaking of which also belongs to the Great Xia Kingdom, is just too remote, has not been specifically divided in that area, all year round, it is difficult to see people, Gu Qingci came here, the people here are still more enthusiastic about him, the one who invited him is a hunter, surnamed Zhang, Gu Qingci called him Brother Zhang. Zhang Orion's wife is a Xianbei person, but she has lived here for more than ten years, and she is considered to be half of the Han people, and she gave birth to a son for Zhang Orion, and she also thinks that she is a Han person.

Zhang Orion was very enthusiastic about Gu Qingci, and sincerely pulled Gu Qingci to drink.

The scenery of the northern country is particularly cold, and every household is always prepared with rice wine. This kind of wine, although it is not a good wine, but it is better than the taste, if it is placed in the kind of place in the south of the Yangtze River where the four seasons are like spring, there are really few people who are used to drinking it. However, Gu Qingci, although he hasn't drunk much wine, has gained a body of Jiuyang internal strength today, and it is half a catty and eight taels to fight with Zhang Orion.

The two of them can barely be regarded as meeting each other in chess, and Sister-in-law Zhang's skills are very good, and a few side dishes are full of flavor, Zhang Orion and Gu Qingci drank very much, and they were hot, and as they spoke, they decided to go up the mountain to catch two game to cook, and then continue to drink it.

In these places, it is rare to see people who read on weekdays, and there are not many people who can even read and write, but they are all superior, but Gu Qingci is easy-going, so he can naturally be hospitable and respectful, and the power of respect is also very strong.

Just do it, as soon as the wine bowl was put down, Zhang Orion took a wolf skin robe from the house for Gu Qingci, regardless of Gu Qingci's refusal, he was stunned to wrap Gu Qingci tightly. He also wrapped an animal fur that Gu Qingci had never seen before, carried a knife, put a big bow on his back, took twenty arrows, and went out with Gu Qingci.

Zhang Lihu's daughter-in-law, who has lived in this Han tribe for many years, has already developed the habit of a Han woman's husband as a wife, and she didn't dare to stop Zhang Orion and Gu Qingci from getting drunk and crazy at night, but repeatedly told the two to be careful. But Zhang Orion's only youngest son is different.

Zhang Orion's youngest son is called Tiger Head, Zhang Orion is uneducated, he thinks this name is easy to support, and with a wave of his hand, the tiger head that has just landed is installed with this name that Gu Qingci can't understand. However, the little tiger head really looks like his name, tiger head and tiger brain, very cute, seeing that his father and Uncle Gu were going to hunt at night, he thought it was funny, so he ran out, grabbed his father and shouted: "Daddy, Uncle Gu, I want to go too." ”
