Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Hall of Naihe
Fu Mingyue burst into tears and looked at He Qianshan blankly, as if she didn't understand what he was talking about.
Zhao Duxue hurriedly came over and pressed the wound on He Qianshan's arm that was still bleeding.
He Qianshan looked at Fu Enqiu's corpse and tried to restrain his sadness.
"Brother Fu didn't die at their hands, but he was injured and devastated, and the oil ran out!
At the beginning, if I hadn't naively thought that there must be a distinction between black and white, right and wrong, and I ventured into the battle between Brother Fu and the officials, Brother Fu would not have been imprisoned and seriously injured!
Therefore, I am to blame for Brother Fu's death!"
There was a hidden cry in his tone, although he didn't see his real expression after the mask, two male tears had flicked out......
Fu Enqiu's death today is not necessarily true to say that it has nothing to do with He Qianshan, but to say that he harmed him is an exaggeration! It's just that in He Qianshan's own opinion, it really means "I don't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me"!
Fu Mingyue's jade hands clenched the double knives trembled, and Zhao Duxue's heart trembled, and she unconsciously took a step closer to He Qianshan, as if she was ready to block the knife for him at any time!
Fortunately, Fu Mingyue's emotions gradually calmed down, put away her double knives, knelt beside Fu Enqiu, and caressed her brother's face with tears.
"When my brother embarked on this path, he knew that it would be difficult to end well, and told me not to have any thoughts of revenge under any circumstances, saying that it would harm me.
In the past few days, my brother has explained to me the most in private, that is, don't blame you for Brother Xiaowu, and say that you are not to blame for this matter.
Actually, even if my brother didn't say it, I wouldn't have blamed you for a long time. I know you're a good guy, but sometimes you're so stupid!
If you want to say hate, I don't hate people who hurt my brother, I don't hate people who don't treat my brother's injuries, I don't hate people who are unsympathetic and unrighteous, but do you want to hate you, a stupid brother?"
He Qianshan listened to Fu Mingyue's words, but his heart was even more uncomfortable, his nose was sour, and he couldn't help but burst into tears!
He was speechless for a while, and only said silently in his heart: "Brother Fu, I will treat Mingyue like my own sister, take care of her for the rest of my life, and not let her suffer the slightest grievance!"
Zhao Duxue also couldn't stop wiping her tears on the side, and chose to use medicine to help He Qianshan cover his wounds.
When Fu and He's emotions seemed to calm down a little, Zhao Duxue spoke first: "Let's let Brother Fu settle down as soon as possible!"
He Qianshan nodded, but Fu Mingyue shook his head.
"I don't want to bury my brother here, our home is in Jeju, my brother has taken me to wander around the rivers and lakes in the past few years, wandering around, and has never returned home, and now he is dead in a foreign land, I have to take him back to Jeju for burial!"
Zhao Duxue first asked, "Brother Fu has a wife and children in his family?"
Fu Mingyue shook her head and said: "My brother has never married a wife, when I persuade him, he always says that if he marries a wife, he will harm others!"
Zhao Duxue frowned slightly.
"Mingyue, Jeju is three thousand miles away, even though it is cold now, Brother Fu's body can't last that long!"
Fu Mingyue seems to be iron-hearted!
"I'm not afraid that my brother's body will rot, and it will not rot if he is buried in the ground?"
Zhao Duxue wanted to persuade again, but was stopped by He Qianshan.
"Listen to her!"
Zhao Duxue glared at him, blaming him for not understanding her intentions!
The corpse is rotting and falling second, the Fu family brothers and sisters have always relied on each other, the death of the elder brother will inevitably have a huge blow to Fu Mingyue, the sooner the corpse is buried, the faster Fu Mingyue's spirit can recover, like this day by day, touching the scene, when will the wound in his heart be healed?
He Qianshan didn't understand this, but at this moment, he really didn't want to go against Fu Mingyue's meaning!
Besides, after all, people are relatives, and it is up to them to decide how to deal with the aftermath!
"Mingyue, without further ado, you and Sister Twilight will set off first. This place is very close to the mountain, and it only takes less than half a day's journey for the fast horse, so I will go alone, and if it goes well, I can catch up with you in one day!"
Fu Mingyue said strangely: "You also go to Jeju?"
"Naturally, I want to go, Brother Fu entrusted you to me before his death, I want to accompany you, so I can send Brother Fu on the last journey!"
“...... If you can't find that sister named Sisi in Lushan, won't you look for it?" Fu Mingyue asked with a deep sigh.
"I'm looking for it, but if she's not in Lushan, I don't know where to look for it!
Zhao Duxue wanted to go with He Qianshan in her heart, but she also knew that going would really not help anything, and Fu Mingyue really needed someone to accompany her at this time, so she asked He Qianshan: "What if you find someone but it doesn't go well?"
He Qianshan did not answer directly.
"You just go forward, calculate your fate, don't stop waiting for me, no matter how many days, I will definitely catch up with you!"
Zhao Duxue's eyes were full of reassurance.
"Don't forget what Brother Zhuo Wen told you!"
He Qianshan nodded, went to the carriage and picked out a spacious box to empty it, and walked to Fu Enqiu's side.
"Brother Fu, I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry, I'll wronged you first!"
After he finished speaking, he picked up Fu Enqiu and was about to put it in the box, but was stopped by Zhao Duxue.
In the end, the girl's family was more careful, and I saw that she found a lot of herbs in the car and put them under the box, saying that the grass was soft, moisture-proof, and could also remove the smell of rancidity!
Watching He Qianshan and Zhao Duxue work hard for their brother, Fu Mingyue in grief got a little comfort.
And when she was separated from He Qianshan, she found that her reluctance and worry about him seemed to be no less than Zhao Duxue beside her!
The sentence "Brother Xiao Wu, be careful!" is simply blurted out from the bottom of your heart!
He Qianshan glanced back at the two red faces, nodded and whipped away!
He didn't worry about them, although he felt that there might not be any danger without him, but he still wanted to return to them as soon as possible!
He Qianshan originally thought that Yushan Mountain was a gloomy and barren place, but when he saw it, the grass and trees were lush, the mountains and rivers were green, and the beauty of the scenery was not worse than that of Muqi Mountain.
He also thought that this place must be inaccessible, but along the way, he met many tourists who went up the mountain and walked green, and there were also medicine farmers who came to collect medicine.
I just didn't know where to go, so I asked an old medicine farmer where the ten ghosts of Yushan were.
The old man seemed to find something strange.
"This was all decades ago, didn't those ten kings die early? The whole gang of gangsters has long since broken up, what are you still looking for that ghost place to do?"
He Qianshan was afraid of frightening the old man, so he didn't dare to say that Li Shangfeng was still alive, but said that he had heard the rumors and was curious to go and see!
The old man had a puzzled look on his face.
"The ghost head village is in the Ghost Ridge Peak, from here along the mountain road to the west, there is a fork in the middle to go down, it is a valley, across the valley there is a line of sky, after a line of heaven is the Ghost Ridge, the highest part of the ridge is the Spirit! There was no one on it but ghosts, and now there are even ghosts, I really don't know what to see? Also, there are many fierce beasts in this mountain, you have to be careful alone!"
"Don't worry, I'll take care of myself, thank you for showing me the way!"
The old man shook his head and left, still muttering: "People now, hey, it's really idle!"
The mountain is a small mountain range, the mountain is not high, but there are many strange peaks and dangerous roads.
The place where He Qianshan asked for directions was on the mountainside, and he couldn't ride a horse any further, so he found a nearby col with a lot of water and grass, tied the fast horse that came from Duan Mountain, and walked up the mountain.
Climbing along the mountain road, he found the fork in the west mountain, and when he went down, it was indeed an empty valley, but he couldn't find a line of heaven on the opposite side!
He Qianshan was not convinced, and looked along the mountain wall inch by inch, and saw a place covered with dense green plants from top to bottom, and the vines and vines were opened, and a passage really appeared.
It is said that it is a passageway, but it is extremely narrow, like a crack in the middle of the whole mountain, not to mention horses, people have to turn sideways to pass, worthy of being called "a line of sky"!
It seems that this place has long been inaccessible, otherwise it would not have been allowed to grow with vines.
He walked on this line of heaven, thinking that if this is the only way to go to the "ghost head village" of Li Shangfeng's old nest, it is really a natural danger that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, just lay down strong bows and crossbows on the cliffs on both sides, let you have thousands of troops and horses, let you have the ability to reach the sky, and also discipline you to fly with wings!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look up twice, but fortunately, except for a few jackdaws that were eager to feed and the neighing of snakes and insects in the grass holes, he didn't find any unusual movement.
I walked sideways for about two or three miles, and finally after a line of heaven, I was already on the ridge when I came out, and looked at the highest place, and I meander more than ten miles away, and I could vaguely see the buildings that looked like a village gathered on the peak.
The destination is close at hand, He Qianshan is full of spirit, running like a leopard on the mountain range, crossing the hills and ravines like walking on the flat ground, and after a while, he will arrive at the peak of the dragon and the bottom of the ghost head village.
The door of the ghost head village is wide open, and the green fangs carved on the top are huge, and half of the fangs have been broken.
He walked inside, and saw weeds popping up everywhere, which seemed to have been broken for a long time, but at the same time, he was pleased to find that some of the long grass had been walked and rolled, indicating that someone must have been here recently!
The more you go up, the more exquisite the buildings in the village, from the simple bamboo shed at the beginning, to the larger wooden house, and then to the mansion made of bricks and tiles, it seems that they belong to different levels of minion leaders, and the hierarchical treatment of the ghost head village seems to be very clear!
He Qianshan searched carefully one room after another, as long as it was a place where people could be hidden, he didn't let it go, but he really didn't even find a ghost!
A building at the highest place is the most magnificent, the eaves are high and the pillars are strong, the lacquer gold is painted with silver, and the big plaque at the door is the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing three big characters - "Nai He Palace"!
The left and right sides of the temple door are also carved with a couplet: the upper link is "life is not for people and death is a ghost", and the lower link is "what do I do in heaven and earth".
This vernacular couplet, lacking in style and neatness, is extremely incommensurate with the calligraphy of the iron painting and silver hook, as if it came from the same person.
The door of the temple was open, and he stepped into the hall, and the dilapidated scene inside was the same as the shack house he had seen before, covered with dust and cobwebs!
But He Qianshan made another exciting discovery, the dust on the stone slab clearly showed a few lines of footprints!
