Chapter Eighty-Five: Human Desire
Pulling the line of sight into the distance, just a few hundred steps away, a corner of the ancient temple was revealed among the trees.
Qiao Chen'an and the two have been walking to the southwest since they left Hangzhou City, along the way, the scenery has changed a lot, although the line is only a few hundred miles, but there is no beautiful scenery in Hangzhou, but it is full of poor mountains and bad waters.
There are 36 counties in Bactria, namely Donghua, Ningzhou, Leizhou, Yanzhou, Youzhou, Yunzhou, Liangzhou, Haizhou and Borneo. Among them, Donghuazhou, Ningzhou, Yanzhou are the richest, and Lin'an, the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty, is located in Donghuazhou.
Cangwu Mountains almost span the entire territory of Daxia, dividing the country into two, becoming a natural north-south dividing line, Leizhou, Yunzhou, and Dahai Prefecture are located in the south of Cangwu Mountains, and the remaining six states are located in the north of Lingbei, and the northernmost is You, Liang, and Borneo.
Great Xia nominally sits on the land of Kyushu and dominates the world, but the area that can really be governed by the most central state is only the three most central states, and the ruling power of the remaining six states is much weaker.
Otherwise, the high priests of the Wu clan in the south, various sects, and the Luo Gao clan in the north would not be so rampant, and the reason why the power of the Lunatic Cult is inexhaustible is also because of this reason, often as soon as a large number of people from the imperial court come, the Lunatic Cultists will retreat into the south of Cangwu Lingnan, poor mountains and bad waters, tigers and insects, and the army often suffers heavy losses, but in the end it is in vain.
Although Hangzhou is under the rule of Ningzhou, its location is already in the south, and thousands of miles north is Cangwuling, and Ning Caichen's hometown Jinhua is very close to the edge of the mountain.
The forest where the two of them were located, the ancient trees were towering, the vines were sparse, and they were indiscriminately entwined on the branches of the trees, and the forest was slippery and difficult to walk, and the humidity was very heavy, which made people feel chills.
Whew!
In the mountains and forests in the distance, there were suddenly a few long and low wolf howls, echoing under the night sky, lingering in the mountains and forests, Ning Caichen tightened the bamboo pipe behind him, his face showed a trace of worry, looked at Qiao Chen'an and said: "Brother Qiao, it's dark, not to mention that there seem to be wild wolves around, it's really not appropriate for us to continue to hurry, there is a broken temple ahead, we might as well go over and rest for a night, and it's not too late to hurry tomorrow." ”
Qiao Chenan looked in front of him and nodded, "It's okay." ”
He is self-accomplished and physically strong, even if he travels day and night, it is not a problem, but considering that Ning Caichen is just an ordinary scholar on his side, he has to take care of it more.
Ning Caichen saw him agree, his face showed a hint of joy, after a day's journey, he was already tired at this time, just thinking about resting for a while, and suddenly saw a broken temple at this moment, quite a feeling of "another village with dark willows and bright flowers", and couldn't help but speed up his pace, it seemed that even the fatigue on his body had been reduced a lot.
After a while, the two of them had come to the temple, and at a glance, the whole temple was quite large, covering an area of several acres, but it had been abandoned for many years, dilapidated, and ruined. There is a thick layer of moss on the wall, and as for the temple gate, the plaque has long been lost, and it is thought that it has long been used as firewood by nearby farmers.
When the two entered the temple, the first thing that caught their eyes was the houses, there were many temple towers in the courtyard, but they were all very damaged, and when they looked at the left side of the compound, there was a pool of clear water, and a wooden bridge connected to the pavilion in the water. The white curtain on the edge of the pavilion hangs down, fluttering with the wind, and it is faintly visible that there are three words of "living in the water" in the book on the pavilion.
It is not difficult to imagine that when this temple was originally glorious, it must have been very magnificent, but time has passed, and the hustle and bustle of the past has long since turned into a dust net of the present day.
The two of them explored in the courtyard at will, and finally found a few neat huts, and chose one to live in at random.
Not long after they moved into the temple, seven or eight fierce men suddenly appeared in the woods, the first of them had a scar on his face, and the rest of them also had fierce faces, holding long knives, looking like strongmen who had killed people and set fires.
One walked into the forest and suddenly said, "Boss, these two boys are walking fast enough, it's been a few days, and we haven't caught up yet!"
The vicious man at the head slapped him on the head when he heard this, and grinned and scolded: "It's not because you kid slept too much on the girls when he left, so he let the two of them run away, if I delay Zhang Gongzi's business, I will have to kill you bastard alive when I go back!"
opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm on the ground, and scolded: "This thief has caused the grandfathers to chase for hundreds of miles, let me catch up with them, and let me have fun with them, and let out my anger!"
The man was slapped in the face, but he didn't dare to get angry at all, but laughed and said: "What the eldest brother said is, little brother, I just can't change the dog to eat, I should be beaten, I should be beaten!"
"How does Miss Cuilian in the Red Mansion feel good, isn't it happy?" one joked.
The rest of the people immediately burst into laughter, and the leader shouted: "Okay, it's all nonsense, have you remembered Zhang Gongzi's instructions?" As long as you get back the heads of these two boys, Zhang Gongzi will not reward us with a few hundred taels after we go back, what kind of girls do you want to sleep with when the time comes?!"
"Hehe, the boss is right!"
"Damn, this time I go back and I see that the princess still hasn't married her daughter to me!?haha!"
A group of people are looking forward to the light in their eyes, shouting to the forest, the sky is getting dark, it is almost dusk, walking in the dense forest is even darker, plus the forest is damp, the yin is very heavy, the forest is not scary.
A lewd man walking at the back suddenly spoke: "Boss, boss, you say this, there will be no ghosts in this forest, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Lin Zhong suddenly quieted down, and the scar-faced man led by him turned around and slapped the man in the face, scolding: "Let your mother's stinky shit! Where is the ghost, grandpa and I are a living Yama, don't fucking scare yourself!"
......
"Grandma, tonight is really lively!"
"There's so much food! I can't wait!"
"Grandma, I can't wait!
In a deserted grave near Lanruo Temple, a few pleasant female voices suddenly sounded, and there was a voice that was neither male nor female, and when night fell, the fog was filled, and the original cemetery had disappeared, replaced by a magnificent house and pavilion.
In an empty room, the tulle was heavy and moving with the wind, but in the middle of the room was a huge bath that was constantly steaming outward, and the water was full of pink peach blossoms, and the fragrance spread far away.
And next to the bath, a pink blanket is spreading, and a woman in red is leaning lazily on the blanket, her long hair is scattered, her eyebrows are picturesque, her red lips are bright, and she spits out a trace of glistening mist, which is not seductive.
She only wore a light red tulle on her body, which was said to be clothes, but it was thin and almost transparent, and the close-fitting coat had long since disappeared, and she could see the seductive scene under the clothes without careful distinction, which made people's blood gush.
The scene in the pool is even more sultry, between the mist, a woman is bathing, her long hair is wet, clinging to the snow-white fragrant shoulders, the pool undulates and reveals the infinite scenery, the peaks are majestic.
The woman in red looked at the woman in the pool, glanced out imperceptibly with her beautiful eyes, and said with a light smile: "Sister, when did you say those stinky men outside the room came in?"
The woman in the pool smiled charmingly, and said, "Don't worry, sister, these stinky men, they can't resist our temptation!"
The red lips of the woman in red were bent into a bewitching arc, and she didn't see how to move, her body slid gently like a boneless, her clothes faded, and the room suddenly lit up with a touch of snow white, and she fell into the pool with a pop, and kissed lightly on the lips of the woman in the pool, and the latter suddenly let out a coquettish cry.
This sound fell into the ears of several people outside the window, but it was soul-grabbing, and it almost cost them their lives, and they suddenly felt hot all over their bodies, and a fire in their bodies couldn't stop rising.
"No, I can't help it!" the scar-faced man at the head snorted and slammed open the window.
"I can't stand it anymore, it's really damn grandma's!"
"Rush!"
Several people rushed in with red eyes, although they were tracking Qiao Chen'an and the others all the way, but the route they were going forward was slightly deviated, and Lan Ruosi had not seen it yet, so they saw the scene of the two women bathing.
The two women in front of them have excellent appearances, picturesque eyebrows, and bewitching figures, much stronger than those sisters in the green building, coupled with the seductive scene they saw before, they couldn't hold back the lust in their hearts for a long time, and became an animal dominated by the lower body.
As for the task assigned by Zhang Gongzi when he left, he had long been forgotten.
Yin wanted to forget how a house could suddenly appear in this wild forest, not to mention that there were beautiful women bathing......
"Ah, where did the man come from!"
"Sister, run!"
The two pretended to be scared, as if they were frightened, but they didn't have the intention of running away, but stood up, the pool water only reached their waists, and the crystal skin was stained with water droplets, as if they could be blown and broken, and the scene of the whole body almost fell into the eyes of the few people who rushed in, and suddenly they breathed more and more heavily.
"Little lady, don't run, my brother is not a bad person!"
"Hehe, little beauty, brother makes you beautiful......"
Several big men scrambled to jump into the pool, for fear of falling behind the people after a slow beat, hurriedly took off the clothes on their bodies, and rushed towards the two of them, and the rough palms had covered the two of them.
The pool water was warm, the mist was steaming, and it was white, and after a while, it was like a fog, and Scarface just felt a touch of slippery in his hand, and before he could be happy, his eyes were suddenly empty, and the woman disappeared inexplicably.
"Hey, what about people, why are people gone!?"
Several people were puzzled, looking left and right, but they could only see the mist steaming, like clouds, but the two fairy-like women were nowhere to be seen, but the water in this pool was only half a zhang in circumference, where is there a place for Tibetans? !
"Something, something grabbed my foot!"
