There was nothing to do all night, and the three of them got up early the next morning and continued to go south into Shu. On this day, the four of them were determined to hurry, and they said little along the way, and at noon they found a forest to rest for an hour, ate some dry food and continued on the road. It wasn't until the afternoon that the three of them finally walked on the rugged mountain road, walked a few miles, saw a village, and decided to rectify here.

Yin Youcheng said: "After the front mountain, it is the girl's mountain." We have had dinner in this village, and we can take advantage of the fact that it is still dark to travel some way, maybe we can go to Longmen Temple tonight. ”

Shocked but said: "What to do in such a hurry, it's hard to say how the mountain road ahead, in case something goes wrong, I don't want to sleep in the forest on this cold day." Even if you rest in this village for the night, it will be okay to get up early tomorrow morning and go up the mountain. ”

Night White Yi walked up to the front and said, "Let's go over first, there's a shop there." ”

There is a small open-air shop at the entrance of this village, and a small shed is set up, which sells some wine and food to the passing guests on weekdays. The sign at the door also looks like it is some years old, and the word "wine" on it has faded to the point that only an outline remains. There is only one middle-aged man busy in the store at the moment. Ye Baiyi and others sat under the shed and asked for a few pots of Shudi's self-brewed Lu wine and some rice pastries.

The four of them are also content, blowing the mountain breeze under the shed, watching the majestic mountain scenery of Shudi, and they are in a good mood for a while.

Yin Youcheng asked, "Shopkeeper, what is the name of this mountain in the south?"

"That's the Three Inch Mountain. ”

"Three-inch Mountain...... What's the point?"

The middle-aged man said, "It's all an old saying in the village. It is said that Zhang Yiren, the current Taoist leader, passed by this mountain when he flew by the sword, and measured it by hand from the air, no more than three inches, so he named this mountain Three Inch Mountain, and the locals also called it like this. I don't know if it's true or not, but a few guest officers listened to it. ”

Yin Youcheng asked again: "After the three-inch mountain, it is the girl's mountain, right?"

The middle-aged man served a few plates of snacks, took the opportunity to look at the people in Baiyi and the others, and said politely: "Yes, a few guests are going to Girl's Mountain on this trip?

As soon as Ye Baiyi heard the word "marriage", he knew that the man had misunderstood the relationship between several people, but he didn't bother to explain at the moment, and said directly: "We are going to Girl's Mountain, may I ask how far the store has to cross this three-inch mountain to Longmen Temple?"

When the middle-aged man heard this, he shook his head and said, "Then this is really unfortunate. On weekdays, you only need to go to the village to find a local, let him lead you into the mountain, walk the path in less than two hours, and there will be a restaurant at the foot of the girl's mountain, where you can rest for a night, and tomorrow in the morning the mountain can also compete for a day's head lot. But this year is different, since the beginning of winter, the white fog on this square inch mountain does not go all day long, even at noon when the sun comes out of the mountain, it is still white, and the visibility in the mountain is extremely low. Some locals went into the mountain and walked for an hour according to the previous road and turned back to the same place, do you say this is strange? People say that there are too many people who have gone to the girl's mountain to ask for signatures in recent years, and the old gods in the Longmen Temple have been annoyed, and they have set up such a maze on this three-inch mountain to turn away the guests from the north. But the white fog on the mountain is a real thing, and I have walked through it a few times, and I can't get out. ”

Ye Baiyi asked again: "What about the merchants?"

They all had to go around the three-inch mountain to the valley. Naturally, you can also go to Girl's Mountain, but it will take an extra day and delay the trip. ”

The stunned immediately frowned and said, "How is this going to be." ”

Bai Yue'er looked embarrassed when she saw the stunned sting, and asked Yin Youcheng: "Is it important for the son to go to the girl's mountain?"

"I can't talk about important things, I just want to see Zhang Yiren, who is known as the leader of Taoism today, whether he has the immortal demeanor as in the legend, after all, he has come to Shuzhou and does not meet such a person, which is a big regret in his life. Since that's the case, it's okay if we don't go, it's okay for us to change the route and go directly to Xiayang, and I'll visit again when I have the opportunity in the future. ”

Yin Youcheng caught a glimpse of Ye Baiyi's brows at this time, and asked, "What is Mr. Li's difficulty?"

Ye Baiyi said softly, "As the saying goes, there must be a demon when things go wrong, and it's a trivial matter whether the girl goes to the mountain or not, but the strange things on the three-inch mountain make me care." ”

Yin Youcheng thought about it for a while and said, "Huh...... There is something strange about this. There is no snow in Shu in winter, but the fog is the heaviest, but no matter how heavy the fog is, it should disperse when the sun comes out, how can there be a reason that it will not disappear all day long? . ”

Ye Baiyi asked the middle-aged man again: "Shopkeeper, do you know what is unusual about this three-inch mountain?"

"This ...... I haven't heard of it. ”

Ye Baiyi said again: "Or are there other strange things happening around here in the near future?"

"This ......," the middle-aged man scratched his head and said, "I really don't know about Sancun Mountain, this Shu land is already mountainous, and all the mountains look the same, so there is nothing extraordinary, let alone any strange things." If you want to be stunned...... I just heard some old villagers say that a few years ago, there was a meteorite outside the sky in Shuzhou, although the meteorite finally fell in Nanzhao, but a piece of gravel split out and fell into the northern area of Shu, but as for which mountain it fell on, then I can't tell. Could it be that this is a three-inch mountain? But this was all a few years ago, or I will go to the village to find a few old people in a while, and I will find out as soon as I ask. ”

After hearing the thanks, Ye Baiyi sent the shop away, and whispered to everyone: "It's good to say that this matter is just an ordinary mountain, but how can there be such a lot of trouble in mining." Then it is very likely that this matter has something to do with the meteorite. You must know that the ability to find the dragon point is humane, and it is not an overnight thing for mortals to calculate the way of heaven, and it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to calculate the place where the meteorite fell. But astronomical affairs have always been in charge of Tianjing City's Tianjian City, if this is the royal arrangement, there is no need to be so secretive, just in the style of today's Empress Dowager Jia, if you want a meteorite, it is better to directly use civilian workers to dig holes to open the mountain, why bother so much. The matter is man-made, and someone in this mountain must be obstructing it. If it is really related to the meteorite, the forces behind it are studying astronomy privately, and peeping into the heavens is enough to make them bear the sin of great rebellion. ”

Yin Youcheng slapped his thigh, nodded immediately and said: "And this has happened for so many days, how can the people of the government not know that most of this matter is caused by the collusion between the local government and the government." For ordinary people, this is just a detour, how can they really care. But if you think about it, if this matter is to be pierced, it may even alarm the Tianjing City, so it is better for us to go in and investigate. I haven't seen what this meteorite looks like since I was a child, so I just went to find out. ”

Yin Youcheng looked at Jing Yu and Bai Yue'er: "Then we will rest here for one night tonight, and tomorrow the two of you will stay here, and my husband and I will go into the mountain ......"

"I'm going too. A startled voice interrupted Yin Youcheng's words.

Bai Yue'er also said: "Childe wants to get rid of Yue'er again." ”

Yin Youcheng smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "How can there be." If you think about it carefully, it is indeed very wide-ranging, if it is just an ordinary mountain mining, it is a small matter, but if it is really related to meteorites, it may also implicate the royal family. Besides, after entering the mountain, it is dangerous and unpredictable, and if you really encounter trouble that neither I nor Mr. Li can solve, your presence will become a burden. The four of us have traveled more than 100 miles along the way, even if you can't believe me, Yin, you have to believe Mr. Li, right?

He snorted and said, "Okay, if you don't come out by this time tomorrow, Sister Yue'er and I will go into the mountain to find you." ”

Bai Yue'er nodded in agreement on the side, and Yin Youcheng had no choice but to take a step back: "Okay, whatever." First of all, if you enter the mountain at that time, if you have anything long and two short, don't rely on me, don't say that I am cold-blooded and ruthless. ”

"Hush. He snorted coldly and turned his head.

Ye Baiyi picked up the bookcase, got up and said, "In this case, let's rest in this village for a night first, and then act separately tomorrow morning." I'd like to see who is pretending to be a ghost in front of this Dragon Gate View. ”
