The son of the rhino canal jade sword, a young man with a white horse and a golden bondage.

Pingming Yanyue Tun right land, twilight fish Li chase the left sage.

The stone tiger in the valley passed through the arrow, and the golden man on the mountain had the sky.

The end of the world is endless, and the thistle gate is three thousand miles.

Seeing the Yellow Sand Valley of Maling, the clouds of Longcheng rose at night.

The strange trees in the court have been climbed, and the people have not been returned.

At the beginning of the snowfall, outside the Tianshan Mountains, the floating clouds went straight up to the five plains.

Guanshan is unsurmountable, who can sit on Fang Feiyue.

The flowing water is self-cutting human intestines, and the ice is old to hurt the horse's bones.

The side garden is different from the flowers, and the winter hail and autumn frost and spring do not stop.

The long wind Xiao Xiao crossed the water, and the wild geese reflected the sky again and again.

This sonorous and majestic "From the Army" is written by the famous poet Lu Sidao of the Sui Dynasty, the poem describes the pain of the expeditionary soldiers leaving their homes with the help of the war of the Han Dynasty, as well as the sorrow and farewell of the left-behind women, which is more satirical The Han Dynasty military generals invited merit and reward, did not hesitate to launch successive years of war, ignoring the tragic things such as the death of the young man and the side stopper, and gave the poet's idea of opposing the endless war to the pen, which is a widely circulated poem outside the Sai. Indeed, the outside of the plug is bitter, the cold light shines on the iron clothes, and the rich people in Guanzhong can't understand it. Just imagine, if there were no soldiers who were not afraid of life and death and were to hold on to the dangerous places outside the fortress, where would the prosperous and peaceful world come from! Today, although the Great Sui Dynasty has been established for a long time, Chang'an, the capital of the Great Sui Emperor, and the land of Guanzhong still have to rely on the efforts of countless soldiers who have given up their families and businesses in exchange for more than ten years of stability and peace.

Jingluo said that 'whoever governs the territory of Guanzhong can dominate the whole country'. Guanzhong, rich since ancient times, also known as the land of 'eight hundred miles of Qinchuan', is an important place for politicians and soldiers.

Junwang Mountain, located in Guanzhong, more than 260 miles away from Chang'an in the west, the mountain is dangerous, winding for 100 miles, since the time of Pangu opening the sky, people enter Chang'an in the west and go to Shanxi and Henan in the east, drift the Yellow River, all have to follow the road in front of the mountain that is not more than zhangyu, and go back and forth every year. This road is not an official post road since ancient times, and after the wind and rain every year, there is no yellow mud repair, but this road is centered on the imperial capital Chang'an, bypassing Huashan to the east, connecting Tongguan Pass, and then divided into two, respectively towards Shanxi and Henan, and the road to the west is from Chang'an City, after passing through the reckless Qinling Mountains, at the foot of Tiantai Mountain, turn right and turn a big bend, and then follow the Weihe River to Gansu Tianshui direction to stretch and turn gracefully.

At this time, it is the dry and hot season of early autumn. On the rocky hill dozens of miles away at the foot of the King's Mountain, a few tall poplars are like a few huge umbrellas that cover a large shade. Under the shade of the trees, more than a dozen passing vendors sat casually, under a dilapidated tea shed, laughing and drinking tea while listening to the story of the old man who ran the tea shed.

The old man was short in stature, thin in stature, wearing a washed white coarse cloth robe, and his wrinkled face looked like a loess hill washed by a rainstorm, and the ravines were vertical and horizontal. While he was talking about a book, he was busy renewing tea, although his expression was always lazy as if he was sleeping, but his eyes were faintly shining, and anyone who was glanced at by him had an inexplicable coolness.

The old man slowly tiptoed to refill a round of tea for the cool people, and spat and said: "It was also this day that year, and it is very similar to the weather today. Although it seemed that the clouds were light and the wind was light, and it was still some time before the sky was high, but then something extraordinary happened......! That day, the thin mist had just finished smearing the earth, and the sun showed half a hazy face behind the distant mountains......" Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by one of the tea guests, and said, "You ****** don't write crepe." Isn't it to talk about the galea in the sixteenth year of the emperor's reign? Be direct, don't give it to our mother-in-law!" The old man was not angry when he heard this, he smiled, bowed slightly and said: "Good honorable guest, don't worry, our little old man has already talked about the gale!" As he spoke, he coughed a few times, swallowed his saliva, and continued: "As soon as the sun poked its head out of the King's Mountain that day, it was retracted by a sudden wind. The wind, like a madman, swept over the distant mountains, carrying a wet and smelly smell, and poured down like a waterfall on the earth beneath your feet...... That momentum, hehe...... It's really extraordinary, and it's rare to see in eternity!"

When he was proud, he put aside the big black teapot with smoke and fire, pulled over a broken stool, held his slender arm, and exaggerated while gesturing: "This wind is really full of strength, and the crazy look is very similar to the crazy woman next door to me, sometimes whistling, sometimes shouting trumpets, jumping up and down, rampage, and blowing everything here and there." ”

When the tea guests heard him talk about the crazy woman next door to him again, they all laughed and said, "What kind of crazy way is that woman?

The old man smiled awkwardly, and said with a straight face: "We are serious people, how can there be such a thing!" Everyone saw that his expression was evasive, and they laughed even more ill-willedly. At this time, a slender young man in the tea shed saw that the old man was laughing at everyone, and he was extremely embarrassed, so he stood up with a tea bowl, hugged his fist at everyone in a Shanxi accent, and said: "Since you like to hear strange things about strange people, don't make a fuss! Drink tea, drink tea! Let's listen to the old man continue, how about it?" At this time, everyone had laughed enough, and three or five people raised the tea bowl to him, which was regarded as agreeing.

Seeing that everyone was silent, the old man glanced at the young man gratefully, and continued: "You honored guests must also know that the autumn wind here will blow like a fart child's cry, and it will come and go as fast as it comes. And the wind was running wildly, constantly carrying living people, cattle, sheep and horses, and came southward, all the way across the winding Shixi River, rushed here, and stopped in front of the sword-sharpened and axe-chopping King Mountain for an hour, and then bent and galloped towards the Luo River in the northeast. ”

When everyone heard him talk about the wind, they couldn't help but stop the tea bowl in their hands and asked, "What happened after the wind stopped?"

The old man got up slowly, refilled the tea for a few empty tea bowls, and then said: "You don't know, on the day the wind blew, it was the general Yuwen Qiu who was ordered by the saint to command three thousand steel armor elite soldiers, set off from Weinan and went straight to Tongguan, wanting to quell the rebellion in Henan. The young man who had played for him before saw that the old man finally got to the point, and couldn't help but stroking his hands and said, "General Yuwen has appeared, something strange should happen, right?" ”

The old man nodded, looked up at the direction of the road, and pointed to a green valley and said: "General Yuwen led the army, Xiaoxing was at night, and it only took a few days to get there, oh, the southern suburbs of Huaxian County. Hehe, you can take a closer look, it's not far away!"

Everyone nodded, and shouted, "Don't be verbose, don't be verbose, what does that wind have to do with this lush valley? ”

The old man said: "It's a big deal. On the day when the army stopped, there was no wind and no dust, and it was noon when the flag was difficult to display and the scorching sun was heading. General Yuwen Qiu has been fighting for many years, and he cherishes the soldiers very much, and when he saw that the weather was like this, he ordered to set up camp and rest on the spot. ”

The young man said: "It's a good weather in early autumn, and it's not a hot season, how can there be no wind and no dust? General Yuwen is afraid that he will be in trouble." ”

The old man sighed: "Soon after setting up the camp, something strange happened. At that time, General Yuwen was discussing with his subordinates how to deal with this inexplicably hot afternoon, when he suddenly heard a report from the former military flag commander, saying that an inexplicable yellow wind was blowing among the soldiers of the front army...... As soon as the wind stopped, many of the soldiers were injured by the wind and were now unable to move forward. Speaking of this, the old man stood up, learned from the appearance of Yuwen Qiu back then, stood with his waist crossed, and deliberately raised the sky and laughed a little and said: "Lao Tzu's soldiers and generals, go south and north, gallop outside the plug, all of them are strong men who can fight well, don't say it's a wind, it's a knife that falls from the sky, and the molten iron flowing under your feet won't make the army stagnate!"

When the old man said this, he sighed and said: "But this wind is indeed strange, it was blowing in the vanguard of the iron cavalry for half an hour before, and when it stopped, more than half of the two thousand elite iron cavalry soldiers were blown off, and the morale of the whole army was greatly damaged, and they had to be treated on the spot. When everyone heard this, they were also puzzled, and a chubby businessman in the tea shed pouted his lips after hearing the old man say this: "General Yuwen's counterinsurgency plan has been blocked like this?"

The old man nodded and said: "If something strange happens to the general Yuwen Qiu, if he rashly reports to the imperial court without knowing it, the saint will definitely blame him for his poor command of the army and be severely punished." So he couldn't sleep at night, thinking hard, but there was nothing he could do. But at night, there was a strategist on his side, saying that there was a king's mountain not far from here, and there was a strange man on the mountain, called the Red Leaf Dragon. It is said that this person is extraordinary, not only can call the wind and rain, but also knows the ancient medical Tao, the best at treating incurable diseases, if you can find the red leaf dragon, you will be able to solve this catastrophe...... Yuwen was overjoyed when he heard this, asked for the path, prepared gold and silver, took the strategists and three retinues, and led dozens of fierce soldiers all the way to the King's Mountain. ”

The wind is blowing slowly, and it has formed a special atmosphere with the story of the old man, which spreads in the tea shed. The atmosphere in the tea shed was warm, and everyone shouted for the old man to talk quickly. The old man was about to continue, but he heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance. When everyone heard the sound of horses' hooves, they all turned their heads to look, only to see a group of black-clothed passengers running from the depths of the road.

The black-clothed rider ran closer and closer, and from a distance, it was like a black dragon rolling forward. Seeing that the black-clothed passengers were coming like the wind, they secretly wondered, and saw that the black-clothed passengers were all tall and had sharp blades hanging from their waists, although everyone was wearing sunshade hats, they still couldn't hide their mighty temperament, and they couldn't help but look at each other, secretly panicking. This line of more than ten riders stopped in front of the tea shed. The black-clothed man at the head let out a low shout, and a black-clothed passenger jumped off his horse and took a few sonorous steps to the front of everyone. He first hugged his fists to everyone, and then asked: "Dare to ask friends, is there a drinking place called 'Kelaixi' ahead of you?" Everyone listened to the loud and steady voice of the man in black, and he came over in a few steps, vigorous and powerful, especially swept by the pair of sharp eyes under his sunshade hat, and felt panic in their hearts.

Some of the people in the pergola are new to this place and are not very familiar with the terrain here, while others are perennial and familiar with the terrain and where to go. However, those who are familiar with the terrain or not know that the world has been turbulent in recent years, and thieves are often infested in this area. Now seeing that this group of people is like a dragon, with a long knife hanging from their waists, and their fierce momentum can't help but make people feel frightened, so after listening to the question of the man in black, they all deliberately looked left and right, secretly glanced at each other, and pretended to be at a loss.

Seeing that the man in black was very powerful, the old man in the tea shed reluctantly pretended to be calm, stepped forward to bow and salute, and said with a smile: "There is indeed such a place...... A few distinguished guests, you can walk seven or eight miles along the road at your foot to find the 'Kelaixi' hotel. After finishing speaking, he lifted the big teapot in his hand and asked, "It's so hot, all the distinguished guests get off the horse and rest for a while, drink herbal tea and then hurry!" The man in black shook his head, didn't answer, took out a little broken silver leaf from his bosom, threw it on a table at the outermost part of the pergola, and said, "It's so bothering." After speaking, he turned around and walked to the horse of the black-clothed rider at the head and whispered a few words. The leader nodded, supported the quick knife on his waist, glanced at the person in the tea shed, clamped his legs, whistled, and led his partner to gallop away.

Seeing the man in black coming and going like the wind, everyone in the tea shed whispered to each other. The old man got the broken silver leaf out of thin air, his face couldn't help but shine with joy, his thin hands clapped it, and he coughed a few times and said, "Little Lao'er will continue to tell you!"

When the old man saw that everyone was sitting firmly, he cleared his throat and continued: "But it is said that General Yuwen and his party came to the foot of the King's Mountain in three or five hours, and saw that the momentum of the King's Mountain was extensive, the mountain was wide and the clouds were high, and there was no path under the barren grass and weeds and trees? They searched for a long time, but because they could not find the villager as a guide, they left dozens of fierce soldiers at the foot of the mountain to protect the gold and silver, and the strategists led the way to the mountain.

After a few hours, they groped their way to a tall cliff. The cliff is about 100 feet high, volleyed in the air on three sides, and only one side is connected to the black pine forest on the top of the mountain. The four of General Yuwen looked up from afar, only to see that the cliffs that plunged into the sky were like knives and axes, and there were abrupt and tenacious pines on the smooth stone walls. At this time, they found a red-tiled cornice on the cliff that was as oblique as an eagle's wings and an extremely striking red tile cornice...... Not far from the red-tiled cornices, a dazzling light rushed straight into the sky, as bright as lightning in the dark night. The strategist was quite excited when he saw it, and pointed to the sky-high light and told General Yuwen that that was where the Red Leaf Dragon cultivated. ”

When the old man said this, he sighed three times, and everyone listened to it even more attentively, and when he heard that Yuwen Qiu had found the location of the Red Leaf Dragon, he couldn't help but get excited, and asked: "What happened after finding the Red Leaf Dragon?" Only the slender young man said: "Those who can live here are strangers, and there are strange things! ”

The old man nodded approvingly at him, and sighed: "You must know, this Yuwen Qiu is from a famous family, has practiced martial arts since childhood, is familiar with ancient military books, is well versed in the situation of mountains and rivers, understands the art of war, and is also a pious advocate of Taoism, who naturally desires to cultivate himself and become an immortal." When he saw that the light was shining brightly, rising to the sky, and the momentum was like a rainbow, and the brightness was unusually bright, he praised: 'Those who can hide in this place must have extraordinary abilities. Then he carefully observed the surrounding terrain and said, "If you want to go around the cliff on the road, you have to take three or five days, and if you want to climb to the top of the cliff quickly, it seems that the fastest path is to climb directly." So he ordered one of his attendants to climb the cliff at once...... You must know that although these three entourages are dressed in ordinary attire, they look like long-term butlers, and they look inconspicuous, but in fact, they are rare first-class masters in the rivers and lakes...... Several of the attendants received the order and carried the gold wire ropes they had prepared before to the bottom of the cliff, and the other two found a spruce tree and carefully cut it into dozens of wooden pegs about two feet long. The young man asked, "What is this peg used for?" and the old man said, "For mountaineering...... Ha ha...... Now that everything was ready, the entourage who had been ordered to go up the cliff tied the bundle of golden wire ropes as thin as green vines around their waists, pulled out the stainless steel rotten silver hooks they carried, and used the stainless steel silver hooks to assist their hands and feet, and climbed up and down to the top of the cliff. The retinue climbed all the way up, and all the way the superior internal force knocked wooden pegs through the gaps in the cliff walls, and then tied them to the ropes they carried. It was not until near noon that he went up the cliff, found a tall black pine, and tied one end of the rope to the black pine...... In this way, the climbing ladder was formed. ”

Everyone listened attentively, and when the old man said this, he seemed to be immersed in the thrilling situation of the entourage going up the mountain.

When the old man closed his eyes for a while, he sighed and said, "The terrain on the top of the cliff is extremely wide, about 180 zhang in area. In the volley of the cliff, the rock is bare, not an inch of grass grows, it is covered by clouds and mist, and if you are not careful, it is very likely to step on the air and fall off the cliff. The back of the cliff is covered with tall and strong black pines. The four of General Yuwen went up the cliff, although they were close to the sky-high light, but in the narrow and wide terrain at the top of the cliff, they were covered by the dense black pine. So General Yuwen ordered two of his attendants to inspect the edge of the cliff, and after a while, the attendants returned and said that there was nothing but a decaying temple of the kings not far from here...... Since you have discovered something, are you still worried that you can't find the Red Leaf Dragon? But when General Yuwen and his entourage went to see it, they were disappointed. It turns out that the red tile eaves are the eaves of this temple. The crowd walked around the temple and saw that although the temple was large, it had already fallen into a dilapidated state due to the time...... Also, except for an unknown god in the temple, a few tall ancient acacia trees in the square, and a pine shade to shade the long-abandoned ancient road, all surrounded by thorns, weeds and black pines, but there is no vision of shining to the sky. The crowd turned back, looking for and collegial, but they didn't think about it, but they inadvertently entered another way in the pine forest. ”

When the old man said this, he picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of herbal tea, and got up to refill the tea for everyone. Seeing that the old man was slow, everyone became a little impatient, and shouted and urged: "Hey, what happened to them after they found this way?"

The old man looked at everyone and said with a slight smile: "The more people go inside, the more they feel that this place is extremely clean. General Yuwen praised all the way: 'Extraordinary people live in extraordinary places...... If you find the Red Leaf Dragon, the soldier's strange illness will really be saved!'...... He was rejoicing, but was startled by the whispered exclamation of one of his attendants. He followed the fearful eyes of his entourage, and saw a boulder about eight feet high and more than one zhang wide not far away with the word 'kill' written on it. The word "kill" is written domineeringly, with a golden hook and iron painting, three points into the stone, although it is eroded by wind, frost, snow and rain, but it still exudes a faint evil atmosphere. Several people were secretly surprised, and in a daze, they found that when the wind blew through this black pine, the sound made was like a whimper, and the thick branches of the black pine gurgled more like the outstretched arms of a ghost...... They were in a trance, when they suddenly saw a blurry white object fluttering on the branches of the black pine. General Yuwen looked at it fixedly and couldn't help but be taken aback. Ah...... Guys, guess what it is!"

The old man shook his head and said silently when he saw everyone, smiled, and said mysteriously: "It turns out that the white things fluttering on the branches of the black pine that the wind blows are actually dozens of corpses that have long since decayed. When everyone heard what he said, they couldn't help but 'ah', and the old man smiled and continued: "Those white bones seem to have been around for many years. The flesh has long been scattered into the earth, and the face is even more difficult to distinguish. Hey...... There were only empty eye sockets left on the skeleton, as if they were staring into the dark pine forest, alas...... This gaze is not known to be sad about the shortness of life, or to lament the prosperity of the world. ”

Everyone was looking at each other when they heard it, and suddenly the old man's voice was raised and he said loudly: "But who is General Yuwen? He is a general who commands tens of thousands of troops! He has long been accustomed to seeing people's life and death, and is accustomed to wailing and killing on the battlefield...... Seeing that this place was strange, he reached out and felt the long sword at his waist, and the general came out, dragged the trembling strategist over, and shouted in a low voice: 'You lead the good way, hehe...... Lead the way quickly, and take Ben-sama out, or else, before I die, I will kill you!' They panicked and wandered through the pine forest, and after walking for an unknown amount of time, they finally stopped in front of a huge solid rock that was as bright as a mirror, and slanted towards the sky. ”

The young man listened attentively and couldn't help asking, "According to what the old man said, this boulder should be the place where the sky-high light is born, right?"

The old man nodded, and said, "Exactly, but why does the mirror-like boulder slant towards the sky? Could it be that it has been there since ancient times?"
