Chapter 4 The World Under the Mountain
"I'll just get straight to the point, Han Yun Shaoxia, why did you appear in the box of our carriage?" Ye Xingcheng looked at Han Yun with a serious expression. After Han Yun came out of the box, he was called by Ye Xingcheng to the carriage he was in. Although Han Yun didn't do anything, he always had to interrogate everyone when he appeared in front of everyone so unexpectedly.
"This ......" Han Yun scratched his head, still said with a blank face, "I slept very groggily last night, but when I woke up this morning, I found that it was dark all around, and I realized that I was trapped in the box." As a result, I did my best...... Then I found myself here. ”
"Han Yun Shaoxia, are you not moving in your sleep?" Ye Xingcheng asked again, and Han Yun said with a little embarrassment: "This ...... I slept so groggy last night that I let my guard down completely, so I didn't hear anything. ”
"Oh?" Ye Xingcheng was a little surprised, "Sleeping so deeply? ”
"That's probably because ......" Han Yun was just about to say something, Ye Tianxuan suddenly raised his head and glanced at Han Yun, making a look. Han Yun suddenly remembered that yesterday Ye Tianxuan said that her wine was still quietly taken from Ye Xingcheng. Therefore, Han Yun hurriedly changed his words and said, "Probably because I was too tired during the day yesterday...... So I slept very groggily at night. ”
Ye Tianxuan nodded contentedly, unaware that his small actions had already been noticed by Ye Xingcheng. Ye Xingcheng smiled silently in his heart, guessing that there was probably a little secret between the two children, but he didn't say anything, and directly talked about the next topic: "But...... In this case, Shaoxia might as well go to our house as a guest for a few days, and after a few days, I will take you to Feiyan Peak when I go out again. ”
"How can this work?" Han Yun said with great resistance, "This ...... I haven't been down the mountain yet, so I won't get used to life down the mountain......"
"What does it matter. Speaking of this, Ye Tianxuan immediately spoke, "You just stay in my house for a few days, with us, it will be fine." Moreover, I can also take you to eat all kinds of delicious food and play all kinds of fun things, so you can enjoy it for a few days. Not to mention...... We're already a long way away from Feiyan Peak now, if you go back alone, do you know the way?"
"This ......" Han Yun was so speechless that he couldn't find the words to refute it for a while. After all, he has left so far, and it is not good for him to ask people to turn around and return to Feiyan Peak now. Han Yun hesitated for a long time, really didn't know how to refute, and finally, gritted his teeth and said, "That...... All right. ”
"Hey. Ye Tianxuan seemed to be very satisfied with this result, and a happy smile appeared on her face. Ye Xingcheng looked at Han Yun with a kind smile on his face, and said, "Then when I go back, I will write a letter to your master and tell him not to worry about you." ”
Han Yun sighed softly, he didn't expect that the first time he went down the mountain, it would be in such a way, and it came so suddenly.
But......
Thinking that he was really going to contact the world under the mountain, Han Yun's heart was intertwined with several complex emotions. He glanced at the world outside the carriage, and instead of the mountains and plants that he was accustomed to, there were large fields of wilderness.
Han Yun, who had a calm temperament, inexplicably had a faint sense of anticipation in his heart.
The sect of the Hundred Herbs Sect is located in a town called Lingcheng.
Before entering the city, Han Yun saw the high city walls and the flow of people coming in and out of the city gate. Han Yun was a little stunned, although he had known that there were far more people under the mountain than on the mountain, but he was still a little surprised to see so many people.
Ye Tianxuan looked at him dumbfounded, snickered and said, "Fool, this is not many people, when you enter the city later, you will know how prosperous the mausoleum city is." ”
Han Yun responded blankly, and the carriage gradually came to the city gate. The guards guarding the city wanted to come up and interrogate them, but Ye Xingcheng lifted the curtain and showed his face, and the guards immediately greeted the carriage into the city respectfully. Han Yun let out a soft "wow" exclamation, he never expected that the pomp and circumstance of the Hundred Grass Sect would be so big, and even this guard would be so respectful. And Ye Tianxuan held his head and said intimately: "Do you know that martial arts are respected in this world after all. Our Baicao Sect can also be regarded as a first-class martial arts sect in the rivers and lakes. Moreover, it also occupies a lot of medicinal herb resources, and the power in the rivers and lakes is beyond your imagination. In Lingcheng, it is also a first-class sect, and this guard will naturally be so respectful. ”
"First-class sect ......" Han Yun heard the pride in Ye Tianxuan's tone, but he also heard a bit of extraneous meaning, "Then in this mausoleum city, is there still a sect that can compete with the Baicao Sect." ”
"yes. After all, Lingcheng is not the only one in our Baicao Sect. Ye Tianxuan pursed her lips, "Like the Qingyun Sect, the Tiger Sect, they are also the two sects in this Mausoleum City that have always opposed our Baicao Sect...... But forget it, you won't be exposed to these things, and there will be nothing wrong with our Baicao Sect taking care of you during this time. ”
There is only one sect on Feiyan Peak all year round, and Han Yun doesn't seem to understand the struggle between these sects. And with his character, he didn't have much interest in these things, so he didn't ask any more. He saw that the carriage slowly passed through the city gates, and behind the vast walls, he saw a different world.
In this mausoleum city, the traffic is busy, people come and go, and the bustling hustle and bustle comes and goes. The streets are lined with shops and shops with all sorts of strange things. Han Yun looked at it and couldn't help but let out another exclamation of "wow", Ye Tianxuan pursed his lips and smiled, grabbed Han Yun's wrist and said, "Let's go, enter the mausoleum city, and let me take you around." ”
Ye Xingcheng laughed, and did not stop the behavior of these young people. After all, Ye Tianxuan also has the strength of a two-fingered grandmaster, and it is enough to protect himself in this mausoleum city. What's more, with the strength of the Baicao Sect in Lingcheng, even if something happens, he can also send someone to help his daughter in time. Therefore, he turned to Ye Tianxuan and said, "Then I'll go home first, you don't have to play outside too late." ”
"Yes, yes~" Ye Tianxuan grimaced, then pulled Han Yun out of the carriage and ran towards the market in the distance. Han Yun looked at Ye Tianxuan grabbing his wrist, his expression was a little dazed.
Yesterday on Feiyan Peak, Han Yun took Ye Tianxuan's hand and took her to all the places in Feiyan Gate.
And today, under Feiyan Peak, Ye Tianxuan took Han Yun's hand in turn and led him into a new world.
For many years after that, Han Yun would always remember the hands he held up twice, and remember Ye Tianxuan's smile at that time, raising his hand and bowing his head. Everything is in mind.
Having said that, it didn't take long for Han Yun to fall into distress.
"This girl is really ......" Han Yun looked at the dense crowd alone and scratched his head alone. Although Ye Tianxuan said that she wanted to take him around, it didn't take long for her eyes to shine, and she looked around and looked around, the flow of people in Lingcheng was still too big after all, and before she knew it, Han Yun was swept into the crowd, and when she looked back, he was the only one who looked around blankly, and couldn't see any familiar scenes and familiar people.
"I'm ...... Where are you......" Han Yun muttered quietly, not knowing where he was going. Seeing unfamiliar faces all around, Han Yun sighed softly, estimating that he could only take one step at a time. Anyway, it's already at the bottom of the mountain, so it's okay to look around. Han Yun, who had a calm temperament, also adapted to the situation at once, and was about to continue walking towards the front.
"Hey, hey, this little brother. Someone suddenly pulled Han Yun's sleeve and stopped him. Han Yun turned his head and saw that it was a young man of the same age as himself, who looked like he was only three or four years older than him, with a bit of heroism between his eyebrows, and his face seemed to be particularly upright. However, his clothes looked tattered, and he seemed to be very unkempt and sloppy.
Han Yun remembered that Lin Jie had told him that there were many people like this under the mountain, and they were called beggars.
"Little brother, seeing that you are so immature and young, I think you just came out to run the rivers and lakes. The beggar smiled and said to Han Yun, "In that case, do more good deeds and make good karma for yourself." ”
The beggar raised a broken bowl, and at this time, Han Yun suddenly realized something and said embarrassedly, "I...... There is no money on them. Han Yun has lived in the mountains since he was a child, and he has never needed money for so long, so he naturally has nothing left on him. From this point of view, if he can't find Ye Tianxuan quickly, he won't be able to buy anything.
"No money? No way, no way. The beggar looked incredulous, "People who walk the rivers and lakes, if they don't carry some money on them, aren't they even poorer than me, a little flower child, how can they be embarrassed?"
If an ordinary person was said by a beggar, he would have turned his face and left, and even drew a knife with the beggar. But Han Yun has lived on the mountain for so long, he has not had deep contact with the world, and his temperament is so tranquil, so he doesn't care at all, just scratches his head habitually, and says: "I am also the first time to go down the mountain, and I have no experience, so I didn't bring some copper and silver coins with me." ”
Although he hadn't used the money, he had always heard Lin Jie talk about these things, and Han Yun had a basic understanding of it. One silver dollar is equal to one hundred copper dollars, and one gold dollar is equal to one hundred silver dollars, like some ordinary families of three, and the cost of a year is only a few gold dollars.
The beggar pursed his lips, and immediately changed his tone and said, "You have to go, it's bad luck for the young master, alas, you go, you go, you go." ”
Han Yun nodded, and then suddenly remembered something, and asked the beggar again: "Then do you know, where should this Hundred Herb Sect go?"
"Huh?" After hearing the Baicao Sect, the beggar's eyes suddenly brightened a little, "What, you want to go to the Baicao Sect? That's a big fat sheep...... Phew, that's a rich man. ”
"Hmm...... I've been in the Hundred Grass Sect Sect Master Ye Xingcheng Mansion for about the past few days, but the first time I've been here, I don't know the way. After all, he was still too young and had too little experience, Han Yun was a little less scheming in the world, and he explained his background at once. A hint of surprise flashed in the beggar's eyes, and he sighed meaningfully, and then turned into a heartless look, and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll take you to the Hundred Grass Sect." But after you take me there, you'll have to give it to me, meaning. ”
"This ......" Although he felt that this seemed to cause some inconvenience to Ye Xingcheng, there was no better way to do it at the moment. Han Yun hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded. The beggar smiled, hooked Han Yun's shoulder directly, and said, "Then let's go, oh yes, what's your kid's name?"
"Han Yun, Fei Yan Sect disciple Han Yun. What about you?"
"My name is Hong Tong. The beggar had a cheerful smile on his face.
