Lintai Storm Record
Work related (12)
Shan took the second place in Heilangzhai. "
Lu Guan said: "Preserve and destroy the country, continue the peerless world, and raise the Yimin."
Song Qianzhi looked at Lu Guan a little differently, and praised: "Yes, that's the reason. In short, they are all playing tricks. Yan Licheng convinced Long Jinshan and let him sit in the second place. It is conceivable that Long Jinshan used to be The owner of the village, who later became subordinate to others, had to do everything according to Yan Licheng's ideas, how aggrieved he felt. Just like the people of Rongzhou City suffered disaster, Long Jinshan wanted to help these civilians unconditionally, but Yan Licheng did not agree at all."
Lu Guan understood: "That's why Yan Licheng didn't plan to save that pervert when he was arrested, but wanted to use the government's knife to kill him."
Song Qianzhi's face twitched: "Don't give people nicknames, okay?"
"Did he reveal the location of the Black Wolf Village?" Zhou Xian asked.
Song Qianzhi was in high spirits: "He promised to draw me a picture and let us enter the mountain. In exchange, he asked Shen Yushu to write a contract with him face to face, promising not to kill the brothers in Heilangzhai. There are nearly 1 Thousands of people have never burned, killed and looted everywhere, so I think I can promise him. If officers and soldiers enter the mountains and really fight, casualties will be inevitable."
Lu Guan thought: "What's more, there are many people in Rongzhou who can't survive this year, so they voted in Heilang Village. When there is a fight, these people will be the first to suffer."
"That's what I'm most worried about. This big boss is not even happy to take out the food that he robbed the government and return it to the people to save face. In a fight, the people of Rongzhou will definitely let the people of Rongzhou take the lead." Song Qianzhi said.
Zhou Xian asked: "What is Yan Licheng's background?"
"I don't know. It's strange to bring people to the Black Wolf Village all of a sudden. The Rongzhou Mansion has not been able to find out the location of the Black Wolf Village for so many years." Song Qianzhi thought of a way to find out, but felt that Rongzhou couldn't find it. Get what you need.
"A trained Haidongqing or an eagle that is specially used for marching and fighting can be detected, and the method of boiling the eagle has been lost." After a pause, Lu Guan thought of something, and said, "It is still used in the Amodan army, General Bai I don’t know if I have it in my hand, but it’s too late to borrow it.”
The longer the epidemic delays, the more people will die. They have been on the border of Rongzhou for three days.Song Qianzhi thought that it was really not too late, and immediately expressed his thoughts: "I have made up my mind, take someone with me to Heilangzhai to investigate the situation. The silver grain of the treasury may be in Heilang Yan Licheng was arrested if he couldn't get out. The bandits had no formal training, and Yan Licheng beat Long Jinshan to the ground, and the people on the whole mountain were convinced by Yan Licheng. In the village, we still have the second master. When the time comes, let Long Jinshan speak out, and Long Jinshan said that he doesn't know where the batch of grain is, and the grain he brought down to the mountain for disaster relief is the grain in the village."
"And they don't fight, what are they hoarding food for?"
Zhou Xian's words awakened the dreamer, Song Qianzhi had had that hazy thought a long time ago, but he didn't say it out.
At this time, Lu Guan suddenly said: "That day we found the grain shipped from the Chuxi warehouse on the boat at the dock. The grain transported from the Chuxi warehouse to Rongzhou will not go by water."
"If you take the water route, there are only two roads, one east and one west. The west is Lingzhou, a blessed land with good weather. As far as I know, there is no disaster in Lingzhou this year, and there is no shortage of food. The tribute to the court has already been handed over. Yes. If it goes east, it will be transported to Baiming Ferry, which leads directly to Heidi."
Zhou Xian, who had been listening to the scriptures of the two, scratched the scar at the corner of his eyebrow with his little finger, and suddenly realized: "Has the relief food been sent to Heidi?"
"Not necessarily, I hope not." Song Qianzhi lowered his eyes, his emotions were unclear, and said calmly, "Give me someone, and I will ask Long Jinshan to draw a picture later, and then let Huang Wu go to the city to find someone who hasn't seen us before." The young and middle-aged people went up the mountain to the Black Wolf Village."
"I'll go." Zhou Xian did his part.
Lu Guan said, "The scar on my face needs to be dealt with."
"That's natural." Song Qianzhi did a lot of disguises and modifications for others, and he often modified them himself in order to hear news.
"Aren't you going to take me?" Zhou Xian yelled.
"You stay here to protect Imperial Physician He." Song Qianzhi looked at Lu Guan, "Bring another Qilin Guard?"
"No need." Lu Guan was confident, and he didn't seem to take Yan Licheng seriously.
Shen Yushu pressed his fingerprints, came out of the prison with a dark face, wiped off the ink pad on his clothes, and looked at Song Qianzhi with an unfriendly expression: "For the sake of the people of Rongzhou, this burden is borne by the government."
Song Qianzhi smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't worry, Mr. Shen, I am also the first to be held accountable."
Shen Yushu was used to the bureaucratic tricks of superiors shirking subordinates and Jin Chan getting out of the shell, so he didn't take Song Qianzhi's words seriously.
Before dark, Huang Wu took Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan out of the state government office together with Lu Guan, who had been modified and his face was covered with scars, and took them to have a full meal first.
The food was cooked by Huang Wu's wife, and the others were not surprising. The pot of hot and sour fish soup on the table made Song Qianzhi's face flushed from eating. After drinking two bowls of soup, his stomach almost burst before he stopped.
Huang Wu laughed loudly: "Your Majesty, I have a good appetite. This fish is called Shatang Channa, and it is a countryman who the housekeeper happened to meet when he went out today to sell it along the street. After the water dries up, fresh fish is very rare."
Song Qianzhi waved his hands, too weak to speak.
Lu Guan's palm was on his back, and a soft force pierced through the skin, letting Song Qianzhi beat out the full belch, which made him feel better.
"By the way, when did those boats on the pier stop operating?" Song Qianzhi covered his mouth with one hand while talking, feeling that the food had reached his throat.
Lu Guan had a funny look on his face.
Song Qianzhi glared at him.
Huang Wu thought for a while and said, "It's only been a few days. I remember that Laba was still leaving the boat that day. It seems to be about those few days."
The food in the Chuxi warehouse was delivered at the end of last month, and it was only a whole day's land journey from Quzhou to Rongzhou, so those boats were probably carrying disaster relief food.If it was shipped to Heidi, things would be even more troublesome.It seems that Heilangzhai, who is used to robbing the official way, must bleed once, so that the government can also rob it once.
After nightfall, Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan pretended to be two brothers, both wearing peasant's coarse clothes, and Lu Guan wore the borrowed clothes, with his neck, chest and ankles exposed.
Lu Guan usually wears clothes with his chest open, but this small clothes on him reveals his bronze-colored skin, he really looks like a man who works all day.
Song Qianzhi sized him up and said with a smile, "It's okay if you don't cover up the scar, but it looks like a farmer if he's rough."
"You don't look like you." Lu looked at Song Qianzhi who was dressed in rags in front of him. Just looking at his neck and the exposed skin of his hands and feet, he didn't look like a farmer at all.Coupled with Ju Yiqi and Yang Yi's body, even though he was dressed in rags, Song Qianzhi looked like a kidnapped young master.
"Paint my face black." Song Qianzhi went to the yard to grab two handfuls of mud, and greeted his own face without hesitation.
Lu Guan also grabbed the mud and wiped it on Song Qianzhi's neck, wrists and ankles, but Song Qianzhi dressed neatly without showing any flesh on his body.
Lu Guan's rough fingertips rubbed Song Qianzhi's neck, which made him a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "Don't, don't, I'm ticklish, let me do it myself."
Lu Guan ignored him, pushed him back into the chair, and smeared his ankles black.
Song Qianzhi raised his foot and kicked Lu Guan's face, Lu Guan grabbed his ankle, pressed him into the chair, kneaded and wiped mud, and the two moved their hands like children.
"Lu Guan!" Song Qianzhi yelled angrily.
Lu Guan let go and stood up straight with an innocent face.
Song Qianzhi looked at him panting for a while, then suddenly laughed, stood up and pressed a muddy handprint on Lu Guan's neck.
Lu Guan: "..."
"Come on, come on, they're all muddy men, so my brother will come on too."
When Lu Guan was called out like this, his ears and face turned red, and he stopped bullying Song Qianzhi.
Song Qianzhi thought it was fun, so he said: "We are brothers when we go up the mountain. You are the eldest, and I am the youngest. The family loves me but not you. Later, when my parents died, you are my father, who dotes on me every day." It hurts me and won't let me go to the field. Although the family is poor, you still treat me like a young master. It's the same after you go up the mountain, you have to protect me and don't let me do things, you know?"
Lu Guan: "Where there is a fight, you should dodge it."
Song Qianzhi impatiently agreed: "I know I know, I cherish my life very much." Before going out, he worriedly told Lu Guan a few words, telling him not to underestimate the enemy.
Lu Guan also agreed one by one, feeling different in his heart.
☆、The Difficulty of Rongzhou ([-])
With the map of Longjin Mountain, it is easy to go up the mountain, but Song Qianzhi told Lu Guan in advance, don't show that there is a map to guide the way, and follow these civilians who want to vote for Heilangzhai to avoid accidents.
When it's time to go down the mountain, the map of Longjin Mountain will come in handy.
All the way Song Qianzhi was thinking about what to do when he got up the mountain, but he didn't have much to say.They hiked into the mountain, led by a man in his 30s.Everyone passed each other's first and last names, even if they knew each other, when they came out of Rongzhou City, it was cold and windy all the way, there was a younger one who kicked something, hugged the person next to him and howled like ghosts and wolves.
After passing by, Song Qianzhi took a look and saw a woman sitting against the corner with a straw mat covering her body. The straw mat was crooked, revealing the woman's face, which was blue and white. It was dead, with a mass of black, fluffy fetal hair buried in the neck, against the pale skin of the dead.
No one touched the straw mat, and they didn't know if it was someone who was sick and died, so there wasn't much trouble.
A group of people walked east, and there was a tunnel dug out of the city from the backyard patio of a family.
Song Qianzhi had never walked through the tunnel, but felt that the tunnel was cold and damp, with an unspeakable smell, which reminded him of the dead people he saw along the way.Behind him, Lu Guan put his hand on his back and stroked him comfortingly. Song Qianzhi looked back at him, feeling a little more at ease in his heart.
The tunnel's exit was outside the city, and the road almost forked in the middle to go to the back office of the state capital.Only then did I know that it was originally inspired by the secret road of the Tibetans in the back office of the state capital, and many people dug the secret road.Rongzhou was once invaded and displaced by war. It was nearly 120 years ago.These secret passages used for escape were all sealed later, and only the government offices of the state government kept them. This road was dug out on a whim after Rongzhou was closed.
There are policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom.
Song Qianzhi couldn't help thinking whether Xu San had entered Rongzhou City or not, and if he hadn't said anything, he would have been unable to get out at that time, and he might have gotten through the rat hole.
When they came out of the ground, the cold wind blew, and everyone felt refreshed, and they gradually started talking and laughing.The exit of the tunnel was outside the city, about ten feet away from the city wall, but there seemed to be no one on the city wall, and everyone let down their guard.
The leading strong man led them into the mountain, talking to each other on the way.
Song Qianzhi was not young, and his face was tender. In addition, Lu Guan kept asking him if he was cold, and from time to time he hugged him in front of his shoulders to warm him up. When he was resting on the road, a young man asked Song Qianzhi with eyes full of envy: "This is you?" bro?"
Song Qianzhi glanced at Lu Guan and said nothing.
"Your brother treats you so well." Another dark-faced boy looked at Lu Guan adoringly.
Song Qianzhi smiled and said nothing, drank the water that Lu Guan handed over, wondering how long he would have to go.Song Qianzhi only read the map of Longjin Mountain twice, and he remembered it by heart. He knew that this was not the shortest way up the mountain, so he didn't say anything.
There is no distinction between morning and evening in the mountains, so we can only estimate that it will be about one or two hours after dark.
"Hey, I don't think you two are like brothers." The man who led them was called Li Gao. The man Huang Wu was looking for was tall and thin, with outstretched hands and well-defined bones.He distributed a small handful of fried rice to each of them, so that they could finish eating and hurry on their way.
Song Qianzhi choked a little, and gave Lu Guan all his hands.
Lu Guan ate expressionlessly.
"Isn't it because you two got married and eloped? Did Huang Wuye find trouble for me? Hey, you, little daughter-in-law, what's your name?" Li Gao raised his chin at Song Qianzhi.
Song Qian's face was bewildered, his eyes were a little timid, and he glanced at Lu Guan.
Lu Guan's face twitched: It really looks like that.He simply followed his plan and said in a vicious voice: "It's none of your business, you ask so many questions! Who dares you to stare at him?"
Li Gaodeng was furious at the moment, and was about to explode, when he was dragged by the person next to him, who roughly said that it was Huang Wu who dragged him in anyway, don't mind it.
Now no one provoked Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan brothers, Song Qianzhi was really afraid of the cold, shivering on the road, and walked for almost two hours, with two breaks in between.
Song Qianzhi couldn't distinguish the road in front of him, he could only follow Li Gao, accidentally tripped over the firewood, and almost rolled down the slippery and greasy slope.
Lu Guan had nothing to do with him, and asked in a very low voice next to his ear: "Are you here to drag brother down?"
Song Qianzhi was embarrassed, and before he could reply, Lu Guan had already squatted down in front of him, motioning him to get on his back.Song Qianzhi was taken aback for a moment.
The younger ones were laughing at him again.
Li Gao laughed out loud, looking like he was having fun on the way to escape, and said sternly: "You still don't admit that you are a rabbit? You are also courageous. I, Li Gaojing, you are a man. The mountain road is not easy to walk, it is best not to carry it on your back, you Just find a wooden stick and let your little wife hold it, otherwise if you slip, both of you will fall to the ground."
Lu Guan ignored him, and only let the others go to the front, and he was in the back, carrying Song Qianzhi on his back.The rest of them think about it, anyway, it doesn't matter if the two brothers elope as a couple, even if they fall, they won't drag others down.
The emperor of Dachu has always been a man and a woman. There have been several male concubines in the harem, and they have followed suit. Many powerful families have raised a few beautiful ones. It is even more common for rich families to have a few companions for their sons.
Therefore, although the people traveling with him felt that Song Qianzhi did not have a rough temperament when they saw him, his face was deliberately smeared, his skin was as smooth as satin, and his eyes were full of aura.I also saw that Lu Guansheng was tall and strong.Coupled with Li Gao's constant spies, Lu Guan was like a guy who kept away from strangers, as if he was hiding some secret.
It further confirmed everyone's thoughts: Isn't this the nursing home that stole the young master and hid it privately?
The mountain road is rugged, and there are clouds and wind in front of it, and the walls stand thousands of feet without knowing where the mountains stop.Fortunately, Li Gao was used to walking on mountain roads, and everyone followed in his footsteps.
The mountain wind is so cold that it blows people into popsicles.
Song Qianzhi reached out to cover Lu Guan's ears.
"Don't make trouble..."
Lu Guan's ears were as cold as two shattered pieces of ice. Song Qianzhi pinched his ears for a while when the palms of his hands warmed up in his arms. Covered in his arms.
"How long will it take?"
Li Gao heard Song Qianzhi complaining in front, and said with a smile: "This is the first time I see a bandit with a servant, young master, you missed the truth, whose family are you?"
Song Qianzhi stopped talking.
The road is difficult to walk in the strong wind, and everyone is so tired that they only have time to breathe.Only Song Qianzhi was carried on Lu Guan's back, and he didn't have to take a single step. The rest of the people were either contemptuous or envious.
In any case, in the early morning of the second day, they had gone up and down the mountain several times, and they could see scattered houses scattered in the valleys of the mountains from a distance. Khaki.
Song Qianzhi has already come down to walk.
Li Gao asked everyone to stop and rest for the last time.
"Drink some water." Lu Guan gave Song Qianzhi the water bag, Song Qianzhi drank it, and asked him to drink it too.
"Listen, when you enter the stockade, you all have to follow the arrangements. Although we came together, we will be divided into different teams. If we break up, don't make noise with the steward on the spot."
Song Qianzhi squeezed Lu Guan's hand.
Li Gao has been paying attention to them all the time, and this little action did not escape his eyes. He opened the corner of his mouth and joked: "This is inseparable..."
There was another pair of brothers who really didn't want to be separated. The younger brother was already holding his elder brother's hand and talking in a low voice.
"When you live in the village, there will be opportunities to arrange you together." Li Gao said impatiently.
Time is really running out, and the terrain of Heilang Village is bigger and more complicated than Song Qianzhi imagined.Song Qianzhi looked at the stockade below worriedly. Apart from the scattered houses in the valley, he could see that there were also many scattered in the woods.
The morning mist surrounded the mountains like a golden belt. This was already the morning of the fourth day. Counting from before leaving, Shen Yushu's people had collected enough food for four days.Song Qianzhi wanted to ask Lu Guan if he could not remember the way up the mountain and could not tell the direction. He asked himself if he left here and returned to the city now, he dared not say that he was [-]% sure that he would walk back in one day. .
Until Li Gao took them down to greet people.
Song Qianzhi just came to understand why Huang Wu said that someone took them there, but only said that they were also Rongzhou residents who went to vote for Heilangzhai.Li Gao and the people in Heilangzhai obviously knew each other, it wasn't like the first time they came here.
Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan glanced hastily.
"Come here, let me see. They will be brothers from Heilangzhai the next day. These two are too young, Li Gao, why did you bring all the children up the mountain? What can you do?"
Among the two brothers who were unwilling to separate, the taller one begged hurriedly: "Our parents are dead, please take me in and give us food, we can do anything."
Jie Jie, who came to accept people, smiled: "We don't have adults here, only the village master, we are all the same." He said, "I can do everything, not necessarily. Forget it, it's not easy to travel across mountains and rivers. What's your name?"
"Qian Erniu, Qian Xuwang."
The man's eyes moved, and without saying anything, he separated the two together.
When it came to Song Qianzhi, he frowned, and suddenly stretched out his hand to pinch Song Qianzhi's chin, making him look up.
"What are you doing?" Lu Guan was furious and wanted to beat him up.
"Hey, you have a big temper, Li Gao, you bring cats and dogs to the village now, because you think the wolves in the mountains don't have enough food for the winter."
Li Gao quickly apologized, walked over and kicked Lu Guan, Song Qianzhi pretended to be timid and let Lu Guan hold him down.
The recipient said with a sneer, "It's still a couple." His gaze was like a cold and slippery snake, sliding over Song Qianzhi's body, looking at Lu Guan with a cold knife-like gaze.
"If you want to stay, this friend of yours has to be separated from you." Shouren's voice suddenly rose, "If you don't stay, get out now."
Lu Guan stared with fury on his face.
Song Qianzhi quickly hugged him by the waist and stopped him: "Brother, brother, forget it, we will talk about it later."
Lu Guan looked at the man with menacing eyes, then lowered his head, like an angry tiger being appeased by a female tiger's shoulder.He hugged Song Qianzhi's shoulders, stroked his back reluctantly, and finally let go.
"Let's go." The acceptor waved his hand with a long voice.
Song Qianzhi listened to his orders and walked aside, and then another 13-year-old boy with delicate features and red lips and white teeth came over.
Lu Guan was assigned to the team of three other strong men, followed by a bearded man.
The one who led them away here was a man in a blue long cotton robe, who was quite elegant and good-looking, and his voice was gentle when he spoke.
The little boy was like a panicked rabbit, glancing around, seeing a child chasing a chicken cub, fell to the ground, and laughed.
Song Qianzhi also smiled.
The two exchanged names, Song Qianzhi didn't take him too seriously, but he didn't understand why they were divided into several teams.The more than 20 people who went up the mountain together were divided into three leaders, not according to age, Song Qianzhi is not young, at least not younger than the boy beside him.
In addition, several younger ones were also assigned to other places.
The person who led them greeted people as they walked along the way. The people in the village looked curiously at Song Qianzhi and the young man who followed him, with a hint of malice and sarcasm in their eyes.
Maybe I was thinking too much.Song Qianzhi said in his heart, don't bother with them, and don't look around indiscriminately, so as not to look strange.He silently thought that he should have looked listless just after he separated from his lover.
So one group sighed in disappointment.
It made them look at him several times with speechless heads.
The two were led up to another hill. Song Qianzhi looked back and saw that the nearby hills were like five fingers gathered together. They were very large and difficult to fight.Unless you can occupy a high ground, the residents who came in were peaceful and serene, like a small paradise.Anyone passing by will only think that this is an ordinary village, and will not think of bandits.
"Brother, do you eat glutinous rice cakes?" The boy called Jinshun took out a sticky lotus leaf bag from his arms.
"I can't eat it, you can eat it." Song Qian's face was gloomy.
Qingmianpao couldn't bear it any longer, and said with a smile: "You guys are on a good job, you don't have to go to the ground, you don't have to wield knives and guns, you can eat and drink, and there are maids to serve you, don't worry about it."
Naturally, the bandit village is different from the city. In the village, people are expected to make the best use of them. After all, they are not doing good deeds.Song Qianzhi sighed.
"There will be water later, you guys take a good bath, especially you." Qing Mian Pao frowned at Song Qianzhi, "Why are you making such a mess?" He pinched Song Qianzhi's face with his hands.
Song Qianzhi instinctively wanted to hide, but he didn't.
"Such tender and raw flesh is also here to join the bandits." The man looked puzzled, as if he was a little suspicious.
"I came with my brother." Song Qianzhi said bluntly, with an unhappy expression on his face.
Qing Mian Pao suddenly realized, and chewed meaningfully: "Your brother, good, good." This kid's face almost slapped Brother Zhou Zhou. After a while, he felt that this young man was just the kind of good mouth of the village owner, and he was experienced. Maybe tonight would not make ghosts howl.
In front of the forest, there are two buildings, which are different from the buildings piled up in the loess in the mountain depression. There are bamboo wind plaques hanging everywhere, which make a crisp sound when the wind blows, which is very elegant.
A row of birds of various colors hangs under the eaves.
Several maidservants of various colors were feeding the birds, one of them was throwing away the dead birds, her brows were frowning, disgusted with this job.
"Hey, the newcomer is here." A girl in a green dress with a quiet and beautiful face looked over and was almost pecked by a bird.
"Feed the birds more carefully." Qing Mian Pao frowned, "I'll freeze to death every day, and I won't say let it go."
"Okay, I know, it's a blessing to feed the beasts in the mountains after freezing to death. Why is this so dirty?" The girl came over and looked at Song Qianzhi and the other boy curiously.
"I ran out with my lover."
The girl frowned slightly.
Qing Mian Pao hurriedly said: "Don't worry about it." The tone implied a warning, and then told her to take the two young men to wash and wash.
"Zijin, they escaped from Rongzhou all night, get two bowls of hot ginseng soup and drink it to warm them up."
The girl named Zijin bowed her head and said yes, and led them upstairs, asking questions like a cheerful little skylark as she walked.
The girl in front of me was only fourteen or five years old, at the age of joking, so Jin Shun put down his guard and talked to her.
"Why don't you speak?" Zijin waved a hand in front of Song Qianzhi's eyes.
Jin Shunkou said quickly: "He has a good friend, and he has been assigned to another place."
"Did you bring any women?"
"Not a woman."
Zijin looked at Song Qian with unconcealed surprise, and took the two of them to two adjacent rooms, and came with another sister to serve Song Qianzhi to take a bath in person.
Zijin undressed Song Qianzhi, and finally took off his shoes. Song Qianzhi didn't seem to want to take off his shoes.
"It's taking a shower, and I still don't take it off!" Zijin said in his heart that this man is so twitchy.
With a clanging sound, Song Qianzhi's boots were pulled off, and a dagger fell out.
Zi Jin and her little sister: "..."
Song Qianzhi: "My brother gave it to me for self-defense."
Zijin quietly picked up his dagger and put it aside, telling him to quickly get into the bathtub to soak.Song Qianzhi was also very cold, so he quickly climbed into the bucket, soaked in hot water, and was so comfortable that he almost cried out.
"Are you comfortable?" One of the two girls wiped his back, and the other rubbed his hair with balm.
The sound of birds chirping came from outside the house, the surrounding bamboo signs moved with the wind, the woods were rustled by the wind, the face exposed to the water was wrapped in slightly chilly moisture, and the bathtub was filled with hot water continuously. Water is very comfortable.
After taking a bath, the two girls unfolded Zhang Xu's clean cotton cloth, wrapped Song Qianzhi up, and left him to tidy up in the room, and two young men came in to tidy things up.
There were clean clothes prepared on the couch, and Song Qianzhi could tell by touching them that they were the finest southern silk, with fine embroidery and intricate intertwining of flowing clouds and flying birds.
This Yan Licheng really lived the life of an emperor.
Zi Jin sent ginseng soup.
There was a trace of timidity in Song Qianzhi's eyes, and hesitantly asked her: "What is this?"
"Ginseng soup, no one else has it, only the two of you who are thin and weak can score. If you drink the ginseng soup from our village owner, you are from Heilang village."
Song Qianzhi tightly shut his mouth.
"Drink it up, get a good night's sleep, and take you to meet your good friend tomorrow."
Song Qianzhi was overjoyed: "Really?!"
Zi Jin slightly covered her mouth, her eyes were filled with amorous feelings, and the fragrant wind surged through her sleeves, she pushed the bottom of the bowl, and said softly: "What are you lying to, drink quickly, my lord."
As soon as the ginseng soup entered his mouth, Song Qianzhi tasted something that did not belong to the ginseng soup, presumably it was a drug.He broke his heart and drank it all in one gulp.
Zijin had a conversation with Song Qianzhi, the task was completed, she retreated, looked back at the closed door, put away her smile, and wandered towards the wooden building, standing still under the empty flower stand, leisurely He rolled up his sleeves.
"Swallowed and couldn't spit it out. I was stared at."
"You don't feel right, too?"
"Never mind him, after drinking Ruanjinsan, he can still turn over to the sky. You are too careful, after tonight, maybe you will still die down the mountain."
"Hey, I have done too many unreasonable things, sooner or later you and I will go to hell."
Zi Jin pressed her little finger on her temples disapprovingly, and said calmly, "If Brother Long dies, I will send this Yan Yan to hell too."
Qingmianpao still had something to say, but Zijin twisted her waist and went upstairs.
The author has something to say: If you like it, please leave a lot of comments!
Such a cold day!Come on, do good deeds every day!
It’s hard to get out of the warm sun, I’m wearing a down jacket, I’m hot (two times)
☆、The Difficulty of Rongzhou (pick up)
After drinking the ginseng soup, Song Qianzhi felt a little sleepy, so he simply climbed onto the bed and went to sleep.
Really, I didn't have a good night's sleep when I arrived in Rongzhou, and I was in a hurry.Unexpectedly, bandits would enjoy it very much. The quilt was fluffy in the sun, with a unique fragrance, and the quilt cover was sewn with the best brocade.
Song Qianzhi slept until noon, and a maid brought food, and it was still Zijin.
Xiao Nizi seemed to be particularly concerned about him.Song Qianzhi said in his heart, he ate a lot of dishes with chopsticks, the taste was very light, so he had to use some casually.As soon as the rice entered his mouth, Song Qianzhi's face changed slightly.
"Why, isn't it delicious?" Zijin asked in surprise.
"Where, thinking of the refugees in Rongzhou City, I can't eat." Song Qianzhi lowered his eyes sadly.He was thinking in his heart that the taste and aroma were not the grains released from Chuxi warehouse. Although the indica rice from Chuxi warehouse was not glutinous, it was slightly stickier than ordinary rice. decline.And the one he ate had long and distinct rice grains, which felt dry and choked in his mouth.Obviously not the same kind of rice.
"Hey, who's to say it's not? Everyone's life is hard. Eat quickly." Zijin said while picking up vegetables for Song Qianzhi.
A meal was reluctantly eaten, and there was tea to drink, although it was not a good tea, Song Qianzhi was almost choked to death by the steamed dry and hard rice, and tears flowed down his face when he drank it.
There was nothing to do in the afternoon, Song Qianzhi wanted to go out for a walk, when he opened the door, he saw Zijin, saying that it was not easy to enter the mountain, and he had nothing to do for them today, so he just asked him to go back and rest.
Tossing and turning on the bed, Song Qianzhi couldn't fall asleep, and when he got up, he found that his hands and feet were weak.I reckoned that the ginseng soup I drank was not a drug, but a drug like Ruanjinsan that made people lose strength. It would not hinder his actions, but he couldn't beat people.
In the evening, the boy next door, Jin Shun, came to accompany him and ate the meal, and the people in the village brought water for a bath.
Song Qianzhi murmured in his heart while washing, the weather was cold and windy, washing twice a day, the skin would be torn.
After taking a bath, the ginseng soup came again.
After drinking one bowl, Song Qianzhi drank the second bowl without hesitation.
This building is so elegantly and quietly furnished, it reminds Song Qianzhi of the emperor's harem.He vaguely had an idea in his mind, his face remained calm, and he would do whatever he called it.
After the maids left, they did not take away his dagger.
Song Qianzhi looked like a bride sitting on the bed and waiting on a wedding night when the groom was toasting outside and never entered the bridal chamber.He kept flexing and stretching his fingers to feel how much strength he still had. His hands were like soft gluten, and they still trembled a little when he lifted them.But it's not that you can't hold the dagger completely.
So Song Qianzhi hid the dagger under the pillow and went out to find Jin Shun next door to say something, but he saw that the lamp had already been blown.
"Jin Shun?" Song Qianzhi patted on his door.
No one answered.
Song Qianzhi had no choice but to give up. There were several guards under the building. Hearing the movement, one of them turned around and gave him a malicious look. He turned his head back without saying a word.
The wind is strong at night, the woods are rustling, the mountain is covered with hardy pines and cypresses, the wild wintersweet cannot be carefully nourished and pruned, the flowers that bloom are small and nothing to appreciate, only the cold fragrance is faint , but it is the same as that planted in the courtyard.
With a muffled grunt, a guard who had just walked out of the hut fell down without a sound. His head and feet were on a slope, and then blood spurted from his neck, and finally flowed all over his neck. His feet twitched slightly and stopped moving. .
The black shadow took off his coat, inspected the clothes, and found that there was not much blood on them, then changed into his clothes, picked up his weapon, and went to watch the night in front of the building, and saw a man shivering from cold sitting on the wooden ladder The shrunken guards were rubbing their hands together.
The man didn't lift his head, he just picked the itchy spot on his hand.
"Why have you been here for so long? You stay here. I'll go to the house to warm up the fire for a while. Do you want to eat sweet potatoes? I'll bring you some." When he raised his head, the sharp blade in the other hand cut his throat.
Lu Guan pushed up the square hat, dragged the person on the ground, threw it under the building, picked up some dead branches to cover it, went back to clean up the blood on the ground, grabbed a large handful of wintersweet flowers from his arms, and sprinkled them in front of the building , Crush and step on it with your feet, and then bury the dead leaves nearby.
It was cold and windy, and after a cup of tea, only the fresh scent of wintersweet and the bitter smell of leaves remained in the air.
By God's help, snow began to fall from the sky.
Lu Guan raised the guard's weapon, buried his head on the wooden ladder, and walked to a room with lights on at the end.
There were four or five girls sitting around in the bright big room, one of them cooked and distributed it to the rest of the sisters, the voice came faintly from the hole Lu Guan poked in the window paper.
"...It's too difficult. The main city of Rongzhou is closed, and the official roads are also closed. Business and trade are blocked. Brothers have not fought for a long time. When will they go down the mountain. I don't want to stay in the mountains forever."
"I have to wait for Brother Long to come back."
"Tsk tsk, it's only been a long time since I came up to the mountain, and I completely forgot about the master. I'm not talking about you, Zi Jin, you have to think about the future. In the future, the master will be the master. We all have merit. Marry a general Hou Ye It doesn't matter what, no matter how good Longjinshan is, it's just a bandit..."
The words were not speculative, and Zijin threw the iron poker that poked the brazier down with a clang.
Sparks splashed, several girls quickly shut up and looked at each other, one of them said: "You are not very old, but your temper has grown, so just say a few casual words, if you don't like to listen to it, let it be, why are you so angry?" While talking, he picked up the iron tongs and continued to pull the charcoal fire.
Another woman said: "That's right, you have your own ideas, so let's not talk about it. Hey, the village master hasn't come yet, and I'm always uneasy. The young people who have been harmed by Yan... all these years are always... Dangling in my dreams."
"I dreamed about it too!" A slightly terrified voice sounded.
"Wait, when the time comes, we will go back to the capital with the master. We are just maidservants, obeying orders, wronged and debted. If you want to find it, you can only find Yan Licheng, and you can't find us."
"Drink two sips of tea well, you don't have to spoil the fun, do you want to sleep, I'm going to sleep."
The door opened, and a girl came out. She walked along the wooden corridor in the building to the house hidden by the woods. She didn't take a few steps.
Lu Guan said: "Preserve and destroy the country, continue the peerless world, and raise the Yimin."
Song Qianzhi looked at Lu Guan a little differently, and praised: "Yes, that's the reason. In short, they are all playing tricks. Yan Licheng convinced Long Jinshan and let him sit in the second place. It is conceivable that Long Jinshan used to be The owner of the village, who later became subordinate to others, had to do everything according to Yan Licheng's ideas, how aggrieved he felt. Just like the people of Rongzhou City suffered disaster, Long Jinshan wanted to help these civilians unconditionally, but Yan Licheng did not agree at all."
Lu Guan understood: "That's why Yan Licheng didn't plan to save that pervert when he was arrested, but wanted to use the government's knife to kill him."
Song Qianzhi's face twitched: "Don't give people nicknames, okay?"
"Did he reveal the location of the Black Wolf Village?" Zhou Xian asked.
Song Qianzhi was in high spirits: "He promised to draw me a picture and let us enter the mountain. In exchange, he asked Shen Yushu to write a contract with him face to face, promising not to kill the brothers in Heilangzhai. There are nearly 1 Thousands of people have never burned, killed and looted everywhere, so I think I can promise him. If officers and soldiers enter the mountains and really fight, casualties will be inevitable."
Lu Guan thought: "What's more, there are many people in Rongzhou who can't survive this year, so they voted in Heilang Village. When there is a fight, these people will be the first to suffer."
"That's what I'm most worried about. This big boss is not even happy to take out the food that he robbed the government and return it to the people to save face. In a fight, the people of Rongzhou will definitely let the people of Rongzhou take the lead." Song Qianzhi said.
Zhou Xian asked: "What is Yan Licheng's background?"
"I don't know. It's strange to bring people to the Black Wolf Village all of a sudden. The Rongzhou Mansion has not been able to find out the location of the Black Wolf Village for so many years." Song Qianzhi thought of a way to find out, but felt that Rongzhou couldn't find it. Get what you need.
"A trained Haidongqing or an eagle that is specially used for marching and fighting can be detected, and the method of boiling the eagle has been lost." After a pause, Lu Guan thought of something, and said, "It is still used in the Amodan army, General Bai I don’t know if I have it in my hand, but it’s too late to borrow it.”
The longer the epidemic delays, the more people will die. They have been on the border of Rongzhou for three days.Song Qianzhi thought that it was really not too late, and immediately expressed his thoughts: "I have made up my mind, take someone with me to Heilangzhai to investigate the situation. The silver grain of the treasury may be in Heilang Yan Licheng was arrested if he couldn't get out. The bandits had no formal training, and Yan Licheng beat Long Jinshan to the ground, and the people on the whole mountain were convinced by Yan Licheng. In the village, we still have the second master. When the time comes, let Long Jinshan speak out, and Long Jinshan said that he doesn't know where the batch of grain is, and the grain he brought down to the mountain for disaster relief is the grain in the village."
"And they don't fight, what are they hoarding food for?"
Zhou Xian's words awakened the dreamer, Song Qianzhi had had that hazy thought a long time ago, but he didn't say it out.
At this time, Lu Guan suddenly said: "That day we found the grain shipped from the Chuxi warehouse on the boat at the dock. The grain transported from the Chuxi warehouse to Rongzhou will not go by water."
"If you take the water route, there are only two roads, one east and one west. The west is Lingzhou, a blessed land with good weather. As far as I know, there is no disaster in Lingzhou this year, and there is no shortage of food. The tribute to the court has already been handed over. Yes. If it goes east, it will be transported to Baiming Ferry, which leads directly to Heidi."
Zhou Xian, who had been listening to the scriptures of the two, scratched the scar at the corner of his eyebrow with his little finger, and suddenly realized: "Has the relief food been sent to Heidi?"
"Not necessarily, I hope not." Song Qianzhi lowered his eyes, his emotions were unclear, and said calmly, "Give me someone, and I will ask Long Jinshan to draw a picture later, and then let Huang Wu go to the city to find someone who hasn't seen us before." The young and middle-aged people went up the mountain to the Black Wolf Village."
"I'll go." Zhou Xian did his part.
Lu Guan said, "The scar on my face needs to be dealt with."
"That's natural." Song Qianzhi did a lot of disguises and modifications for others, and he often modified them himself in order to hear news.
"Aren't you going to take me?" Zhou Xian yelled.
"You stay here to protect Imperial Physician He." Song Qianzhi looked at Lu Guan, "Bring another Qilin Guard?"
"No need." Lu Guan was confident, and he didn't seem to take Yan Licheng seriously.
Shen Yushu pressed his fingerprints, came out of the prison with a dark face, wiped off the ink pad on his clothes, and looked at Song Qianzhi with an unfriendly expression: "For the sake of the people of Rongzhou, this burden is borne by the government."
Song Qianzhi smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't worry, Mr. Shen, I am also the first to be held accountable."
Shen Yushu was used to the bureaucratic tricks of superiors shirking subordinates and Jin Chan getting out of the shell, so he didn't take Song Qianzhi's words seriously.
Before dark, Huang Wu took Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan out of the state government office together with Lu Guan, who had been modified and his face was covered with scars, and took them to have a full meal first.
The food was cooked by Huang Wu's wife, and the others were not surprising. The pot of hot and sour fish soup on the table made Song Qianzhi's face flushed from eating. After drinking two bowls of soup, his stomach almost burst before he stopped.
Huang Wu laughed loudly: "Your Majesty, I have a good appetite. This fish is called Shatang Channa, and it is a countryman who the housekeeper happened to meet when he went out today to sell it along the street. After the water dries up, fresh fish is very rare."
Song Qianzhi waved his hands, too weak to speak.
Lu Guan's palm was on his back, and a soft force pierced through the skin, letting Song Qianzhi beat out the full belch, which made him feel better.
"By the way, when did those boats on the pier stop operating?" Song Qianzhi covered his mouth with one hand while talking, feeling that the food had reached his throat.
Lu Guan had a funny look on his face.
Song Qianzhi glared at him.
Huang Wu thought for a while and said, "It's only been a few days. I remember that Laba was still leaving the boat that day. It seems to be about those few days."
The food in the Chuxi warehouse was delivered at the end of last month, and it was only a whole day's land journey from Quzhou to Rongzhou, so those boats were probably carrying disaster relief food.If it was shipped to Heidi, things would be even more troublesome.It seems that Heilangzhai, who is used to robbing the official way, must bleed once, so that the government can also rob it once.
After nightfall, Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan pretended to be two brothers, both wearing peasant's coarse clothes, and Lu Guan wore the borrowed clothes, with his neck, chest and ankles exposed.
Lu Guan usually wears clothes with his chest open, but this small clothes on him reveals his bronze-colored skin, he really looks like a man who works all day.
Song Qianzhi sized him up and said with a smile, "It's okay if you don't cover up the scar, but it looks like a farmer if he's rough."
"You don't look like you." Lu looked at Song Qianzhi who was dressed in rags in front of him. Just looking at his neck and the exposed skin of his hands and feet, he didn't look like a farmer at all.Coupled with Ju Yiqi and Yang Yi's body, even though he was dressed in rags, Song Qianzhi looked like a kidnapped young master.
"Paint my face black." Song Qianzhi went to the yard to grab two handfuls of mud, and greeted his own face without hesitation.
Lu Guan also grabbed the mud and wiped it on Song Qianzhi's neck, wrists and ankles, but Song Qianzhi dressed neatly without showing any flesh on his body.
Lu Guan's rough fingertips rubbed Song Qianzhi's neck, which made him a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "Don't, don't, I'm ticklish, let me do it myself."
Lu Guan ignored him, pushed him back into the chair, and smeared his ankles black.
Song Qianzhi raised his foot and kicked Lu Guan's face, Lu Guan grabbed his ankle, pressed him into the chair, kneaded and wiped mud, and the two moved their hands like children.
"Lu Guan!" Song Qianzhi yelled angrily.
Lu Guan let go and stood up straight with an innocent face.
Song Qianzhi looked at him panting for a while, then suddenly laughed, stood up and pressed a muddy handprint on Lu Guan's neck.
Lu Guan: "..."
"Come on, come on, they're all muddy men, so my brother will come on too."
When Lu Guan was called out like this, his ears and face turned red, and he stopped bullying Song Qianzhi.
Song Qianzhi thought it was fun, so he said: "We are brothers when we go up the mountain. You are the eldest, and I am the youngest. The family loves me but not you. Later, when my parents died, you are my father, who dotes on me every day." It hurts me and won't let me go to the field. Although the family is poor, you still treat me like a young master. It's the same after you go up the mountain, you have to protect me and don't let me do things, you know?"
Lu Guan: "Where there is a fight, you should dodge it."
Song Qianzhi impatiently agreed: "I know I know, I cherish my life very much." Before going out, he worriedly told Lu Guan a few words, telling him not to underestimate the enemy.
Lu Guan also agreed one by one, feeling different in his heart.
☆、The Difficulty of Rongzhou ([-])
With the map of Longjin Mountain, it is easy to go up the mountain, but Song Qianzhi told Lu Guan in advance, don't show that there is a map to guide the way, and follow these civilians who want to vote for Heilangzhai to avoid accidents.
When it's time to go down the mountain, the map of Longjin Mountain will come in handy.
All the way Song Qianzhi was thinking about what to do when he got up the mountain, but he didn't have much to say.They hiked into the mountain, led by a man in his 30s.Everyone passed each other's first and last names, even if they knew each other, when they came out of Rongzhou City, it was cold and windy all the way, there was a younger one who kicked something, hugged the person next to him and howled like ghosts and wolves.
After passing by, Song Qianzhi took a look and saw a woman sitting against the corner with a straw mat covering her body. The straw mat was crooked, revealing the woman's face, which was blue and white. It was dead, with a mass of black, fluffy fetal hair buried in the neck, against the pale skin of the dead.
No one touched the straw mat, and they didn't know if it was someone who was sick and died, so there wasn't much trouble.
A group of people walked east, and there was a tunnel dug out of the city from the backyard patio of a family.
Song Qianzhi had never walked through the tunnel, but felt that the tunnel was cold and damp, with an unspeakable smell, which reminded him of the dead people he saw along the way.Behind him, Lu Guan put his hand on his back and stroked him comfortingly. Song Qianzhi looked back at him, feeling a little more at ease in his heart.
The tunnel's exit was outside the city, and the road almost forked in the middle to go to the back office of the state capital.Only then did I know that it was originally inspired by the secret road of the Tibetans in the back office of the state capital, and many people dug the secret road.Rongzhou was once invaded and displaced by war. It was nearly 120 years ago.These secret passages used for escape were all sealed later, and only the government offices of the state government kept them. This road was dug out on a whim after Rongzhou was closed.
There are policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom.
Song Qianzhi couldn't help thinking whether Xu San had entered Rongzhou City or not, and if he hadn't said anything, he would have been unable to get out at that time, and he might have gotten through the rat hole.
When they came out of the ground, the cold wind blew, and everyone felt refreshed, and they gradually started talking and laughing.The exit of the tunnel was outside the city, about ten feet away from the city wall, but there seemed to be no one on the city wall, and everyone let down their guard.
The leading strong man led them into the mountain, talking to each other on the way.
Song Qianzhi was not young, and his face was tender. In addition, Lu Guan kept asking him if he was cold, and from time to time he hugged him in front of his shoulders to warm him up. When he was resting on the road, a young man asked Song Qianzhi with eyes full of envy: "This is you?" bro?"
Song Qianzhi glanced at Lu Guan and said nothing.
"Your brother treats you so well." Another dark-faced boy looked at Lu Guan adoringly.
Song Qianzhi smiled and said nothing, drank the water that Lu Guan handed over, wondering how long he would have to go.Song Qianzhi only read the map of Longjin Mountain twice, and he remembered it by heart. He knew that this was not the shortest way up the mountain, so he didn't say anything.
There is no distinction between morning and evening in the mountains, so we can only estimate that it will be about one or two hours after dark.
"Hey, I don't think you two are like brothers." The man who led them was called Li Gao. The man Huang Wu was looking for was tall and thin, with outstretched hands and well-defined bones.He distributed a small handful of fried rice to each of them, so that they could finish eating and hurry on their way.
Song Qianzhi choked a little, and gave Lu Guan all his hands.
Lu Guan ate expressionlessly.
"Isn't it because you two got married and eloped? Did Huang Wuye find trouble for me? Hey, you, little daughter-in-law, what's your name?" Li Gao raised his chin at Song Qianzhi.
Song Qian's face was bewildered, his eyes were a little timid, and he glanced at Lu Guan.
Lu Guan's face twitched: It really looks like that.He simply followed his plan and said in a vicious voice: "It's none of your business, you ask so many questions! Who dares you to stare at him?"
Li Gaodeng was furious at the moment, and was about to explode, when he was dragged by the person next to him, who roughly said that it was Huang Wu who dragged him in anyway, don't mind it.
Now no one provoked Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan brothers, Song Qianzhi was really afraid of the cold, shivering on the road, and walked for almost two hours, with two breaks in between.
Song Qianzhi couldn't distinguish the road in front of him, he could only follow Li Gao, accidentally tripped over the firewood, and almost rolled down the slippery and greasy slope.
Lu Guan had nothing to do with him, and asked in a very low voice next to his ear: "Are you here to drag brother down?"
Song Qianzhi was embarrassed, and before he could reply, Lu Guan had already squatted down in front of him, motioning him to get on his back.Song Qianzhi was taken aback for a moment.
The younger ones were laughing at him again.
Li Gao laughed out loud, looking like he was having fun on the way to escape, and said sternly: "You still don't admit that you are a rabbit? You are also courageous. I, Li Gaojing, you are a man. The mountain road is not easy to walk, it is best not to carry it on your back, you Just find a wooden stick and let your little wife hold it, otherwise if you slip, both of you will fall to the ground."
Lu Guan ignored him, and only let the others go to the front, and he was in the back, carrying Song Qianzhi on his back.The rest of them think about it, anyway, it doesn't matter if the two brothers elope as a couple, even if they fall, they won't drag others down.
The emperor of Dachu has always been a man and a woman. There have been several male concubines in the harem, and they have followed suit. Many powerful families have raised a few beautiful ones. It is even more common for rich families to have a few companions for their sons.
Therefore, although the people traveling with him felt that Song Qianzhi did not have a rough temperament when they saw him, his face was deliberately smeared, his skin was as smooth as satin, and his eyes were full of aura.I also saw that Lu Guansheng was tall and strong.Coupled with Li Gao's constant spies, Lu Guan was like a guy who kept away from strangers, as if he was hiding some secret.
It further confirmed everyone's thoughts: Isn't this the nursing home that stole the young master and hid it privately?
The mountain road is rugged, and there are clouds and wind in front of it, and the walls stand thousands of feet without knowing where the mountains stop.Fortunately, Li Gao was used to walking on mountain roads, and everyone followed in his footsteps.
The mountain wind is so cold that it blows people into popsicles.
Song Qianzhi reached out to cover Lu Guan's ears.
"Don't make trouble..."
Lu Guan's ears were as cold as two shattered pieces of ice. Song Qianzhi pinched his ears for a while when the palms of his hands warmed up in his arms. Covered in his arms.
"How long will it take?"
Li Gao heard Song Qianzhi complaining in front, and said with a smile: "This is the first time I see a bandit with a servant, young master, you missed the truth, whose family are you?"
Song Qianzhi stopped talking.
The road is difficult to walk in the strong wind, and everyone is so tired that they only have time to breathe.Only Song Qianzhi was carried on Lu Guan's back, and he didn't have to take a single step. The rest of the people were either contemptuous or envious.
In any case, in the early morning of the second day, they had gone up and down the mountain several times, and they could see scattered houses scattered in the valleys of the mountains from a distance. Khaki.
Song Qianzhi has already come down to walk.
Li Gao asked everyone to stop and rest for the last time.
"Drink some water." Lu Guan gave Song Qianzhi the water bag, Song Qianzhi drank it, and asked him to drink it too.
"Listen, when you enter the stockade, you all have to follow the arrangements. Although we came together, we will be divided into different teams. If we break up, don't make noise with the steward on the spot."
Song Qianzhi squeezed Lu Guan's hand.
Li Gao has been paying attention to them all the time, and this little action did not escape his eyes. He opened the corner of his mouth and joked: "This is inseparable..."
There was another pair of brothers who really didn't want to be separated. The younger brother was already holding his elder brother's hand and talking in a low voice.
"When you live in the village, there will be opportunities to arrange you together." Li Gao said impatiently.
Time is really running out, and the terrain of Heilang Village is bigger and more complicated than Song Qianzhi imagined.Song Qianzhi looked at the stockade below worriedly. Apart from the scattered houses in the valley, he could see that there were also many scattered in the woods.
The morning mist surrounded the mountains like a golden belt. This was already the morning of the fourth day. Counting from before leaving, Shen Yushu's people had collected enough food for four days.Song Qianzhi wanted to ask Lu Guan if he could not remember the way up the mountain and could not tell the direction. He asked himself if he left here and returned to the city now, he dared not say that he was [-]% sure that he would walk back in one day. .
Until Li Gao took them down to greet people.
Song Qianzhi just came to understand why Huang Wu said that someone took them there, but only said that they were also Rongzhou residents who went to vote for Heilangzhai.Li Gao and the people in Heilangzhai obviously knew each other, it wasn't like the first time they came here.
Song Qianzhi and Lu Guan glanced hastily.
"Come here, let me see. They will be brothers from Heilangzhai the next day. These two are too young, Li Gao, why did you bring all the children up the mountain? What can you do?"
Among the two brothers who were unwilling to separate, the taller one begged hurriedly: "Our parents are dead, please take me in and give us food, we can do anything."
Jie Jie, who came to accept people, smiled: "We don't have adults here, only the village master, we are all the same." He said, "I can do everything, not necessarily. Forget it, it's not easy to travel across mountains and rivers. What's your name?"
"Qian Erniu, Qian Xuwang."
The man's eyes moved, and without saying anything, he separated the two together.
When it came to Song Qianzhi, he frowned, and suddenly stretched out his hand to pinch Song Qianzhi's chin, making him look up.
"What are you doing?" Lu Guan was furious and wanted to beat him up.
"Hey, you have a big temper, Li Gao, you bring cats and dogs to the village now, because you think the wolves in the mountains don't have enough food for the winter."
Li Gao quickly apologized, walked over and kicked Lu Guan, Song Qianzhi pretended to be timid and let Lu Guan hold him down.
The recipient said with a sneer, "It's still a couple." His gaze was like a cold and slippery snake, sliding over Song Qianzhi's body, looking at Lu Guan with a cold knife-like gaze.
"If you want to stay, this friend of yours has to be separated from you." Shouren's voice suddenly rose, "If you don't stay, get out now."
Lu Guan stared with fury on his face.
Song Qianzhi quickly hugged him by the waist and stopped him: "Brother, brother, forget it, we will talk about it later."
Lu Guan looked at the man with menacing eyes, then lowered his head, like an angry tiger being appeased by a female tiger's shoulder.He hugged Song Qianzhi's shoulders, stroked his back reluctantly, and finally let go.
"Let's go." The acceptor waved his hand with a long voice.
Song Qianzhi listened to his orders and walked aside, and then another 13-year-old boy with delicate features and red lips and white teeth came over.
Lu Guan was assigned to the team of three other strong men, followed by a bearded man.
The one who led them away here was a man in a blue long cotton robe, who was quite elegant and good-looking, and his voice was gentle when he spoke.
The little boy was like a panicked rabbit, glancing around, seeing a child chasing a chicken cub, fell to the ground, and laughed.
Song Qianzhi also smiled.
The two exchanged names, Song Qianzhi didn't take him too seriously, but he didn't understand why they were divided into several teams.The more than 20 people who went up the mountain together were divided into three leaders, not according to age, Song Qianzhi is not young, at least not younger than the boy beside him.
In addition, several younger ones were also assigned to other places.
The person who led them greeted people as they walked along the way. The people in the village looked curiously at Song Qianzhi and the young man who followed him, with a hint of malice and sarcasm in their eyes.
Maybe I was thinking too much.Song Qianzhi said in his heart, don't bother with them, and don't look around indiscriminately, so as not to look strange.He silently thought that he should have looked listless just after he separated from his lover.
So one group sighed in disappointment.
It made them look at him several times with speechless heads.
The two were led up to another hill. Song Qianzhi looked back and saw that the nearby hills were like five fingers gathered together. They were very large and difficult to fight.Unless you can occupy a high ground, the residents who came in were peaceful and serene, like a small paradise.Anyone passing by will only think that this is an ordinary village, and will not think of bandits.
"Brother, do you eat glutinous rice cakes?" The boy called Jinshun took out a sticky lotus leaf bag from his arms.
"I can't eat it, you can eat it." Song Qian's face was gloomy.
Qingmianpao couldn't bear it any longer, and said with a smile: "You guys are on a good job, you don't have to go to the ground, you don't have to wield knives and guns, you can eat and drink, and there are maids to serve you, don't worry about it."
Naturally, the bandit village is different from the city. In the village, people are expected to make the best use of them. After all, they are not doing good deeds.Song Qianzhi sighed.
"There will be water later, you guys take a good bath, especially you." Qing Mian Pao frowned at Song Qianzhi, "Why are you making such a mess?" He pinched Song Qianzhi's face with his hands.
Song Qianzhi instinctively wanted to hide, but he didn't.
"Such tender and raw flesh is also here to join the bandits." The man looked puzzled, as if he was a little suspicious.
"I came with my brother." Song Qianzhi said bluntly, with an unhappy expression on his face.
Qing Mian Pao suddenly realized, and chewed meaningfully: "Your brother, good, good." This kid's face almost slapped Brother Zhou Zhou. After a while, he felt that this young man was just the kind of good mouth of the village owner, and he was experienced. Maybe tonight would not make ghosts howl.
In front of the forest, there are two buildings, which are different from the buildings piled up in the loess in the mountain depression. There are bamboo wind plaques hanging everywhere, which make a crisp sound when the wind blows, which is very elegant.
A row of birds of various colors hangs under the eaves.
Several maidservants of various colors were feeding the birds, one of them was throwing away the dead birds, her brows were frowning, disgusted with this job.
"Hey, the newcomer is here." A girl in a green dress with a quiet and beautiful face looked over and was almost pecked by a bird.
"Feed the birds more carefully." Qing Mian Pao frowned, "I'll freeze to death every day, and I won't say let it go."
"Okay, I know, it's a blessing to feed the beasts in the mountains after freezing to death. Why is this so dirty?" The girl came over and looked at Song Qianzhi and the other boy curiously.
"I ran out with my lover."
The girl frowned slightly.
Qing Mian Pao hurriedly said: "Don't worry about it." The tone implied a warning, and then told her to take the two young men to wash and wash.
"Zijin, they escaped from Rongzhou all night, get two bowls of hot ginseng soup and drink it to warm them up."
The girl named Zijin bowed her head and said yes, and led them upstairs, asking questions like a cheerful little skylark as she walked.
The girl in front of me was only fourteen or five years old, at the age of joking, so Jin Shun put down his guard and talked to her.
"Why don't you speak?" Zijin waved a hand in front of Song Qianzhi's eyes.
Jin Shunkou said quickly: "He has a good friend, and he has been assigned to another place."
"Did you bring any women?"
"Not a woman."
Zijin looked at Song Qian with unconcealed surprise, and took the two of them to two adjacent rooms, and came with another sister to serve Song Qianzhi to take a bath in person.
Zijin undressed Song Qianzhi, and finally took off his shoes. Song Qianzhi didn't seem to want to take off his shoes.
"It's taking a shower, and I still don't take it off!" Zijin said in his heart that this man is so twitchy.
With a clanging sound, Song Qianzhi's boots were pulled off, and a dagger fell out.
Zi Jin and her little sister: "..."
Song Qianzhi: "My brother gave it to me for self-defense."
Zijin quietly picked up his dagger and put it aside, telling him to quickly get into the bathtub to soak.Song Qianzhi was also very cold, so he quickly climbed into the bucket, soaked in hot water, and was so comfortable that he almost cried out.
"Are you comfortable?" One of the two girls wiped his back, and the other rubbed his hair with balm.
The sound of birds chirping came from outside the house, the surrounding bamboo signs moved with the wind, the woods were rustled by the wind, the face exposed to the water was wrapped in slightly chilly moisture, and the bathtub was filled with hot water continuously. Water is very comfortable.
After taking a bath, the two girls unfolded Zhang Xu's clean cotton cloth, wrapped Song Qianzhi up, and left him to tidy up in the room, and two young men came in to tidy things up.
There were clean clothes prepared on the couch, and Song Qianzhi could tell by touching them that they were the finest southern silk, with fine embroidery and intricate intertwining of flowing clouds and flying birds.
This Yan Licheng really lived the life of an emperor.
Zi Jin sent ginseng soup.
There was a trace of timidity in Song Qianzhi's eyes, and hesitantly asked her: "What is this?"
"Ginseng soup, no one else has it, only the two of you who are thin and weak can score. If you drink the ginseng soup from our village owner, you are from Heilang village."
Song Qianzhi tightly shut his mouth.
"Drink it up, get a good night's sleep, and take you to meet your good friend tomorrow."
Song Qianzhi was overjoyed: "Really?!"
Zi Jin slightly covered her mouth, her eyes were filled with amorous feelings, and the fragrant wind surged through her sleeves, she pushed the bottom of the bowl, and said softly: "What are you lying to, drink quickly, my lord."
As soon as the ginseng soup entered his mouth, Song Qianzhi tasted something that did not belong to the ginseng soup, presumably it was a drug.He broke his heart and drank it all in one gulp.
Zijin had a conversation with Song Qianzhi, the task was completed, she retreated, looked back at the closed door, put away her smile, and wandered towards the wooden building, standing still under the empty flower stand, leisurely He rolled up his sleeves.
"Swallowed and couldn't spit it out. I was stared at."
"You don't feel right, too?"
"Never mind him, after drinking Ruanjinsan, he can still turn over to the sky. You are too careful, after tonight, maybe you will still die down the mountain."
"Hey, I have done too many unreasonable things, sooner or later you and I will go to hell."
Zi Jin pressed her little finger on her temples disapprovingly, and said calmly, "If Brother Long dies, I will send this Yan Yan to hell too."
Qingmianpao still had something to say, but Zijin twisted her waist and went upstairs.
The author has something to say: If you like it, please leave a lot of comments!
Such a cold day!Come on, do good deeds every day!
It’s hard to get out of the warm sun, I’m wearing a down jacket, I’m hot (two times)
☆、The Difficulty of Rongzhou (pick up)
After drinking the ginseng soup, Song Qianzhi felt a little sleepy, so he simply climbed onto the bed and went to sleep.
Really, I didn't have a good night's sleep when I arrived in Rongzhou, and I was in a hurry.Unexpectedly, bandits would enjoy it very much. The quilt was fluffy in the sun, with a unique fragrance, and the quilt cover was sewn with the best brocade.
Song Qianzhi slept until noon, and a maid brought food, and it was still Zijin.
Xiao Nizi seemed to be particularly concerned about him.Song Qianzhi said in his heart, he ate a lot of dishes with chopsticks, the taste was very light, so he had to use some casually.As soon as the rice entered his mouth, Song Qianzhi's face changed slightly.
"Why, isn't it delicious?" Zijin asked in surprise.
"Where, thinking of the refugees in Rongzhou City, I can't eat." Song Qianzhi lowered his eyes sadly.He was thinking in his heart that the taste and aroma were not the grains released from Chuxi warehouse. Although the indica rice from Chuxi warehouse was not glutinous, it was slightly stickier than ordinary rice. decline.And the one he ate had long and distinct rice grains, which felt dry and choked in his mouth.Obviously not the same kind of rice.
"Hey, who's to say it's not? Everyone's life is hard. Eat quickly." Zijin said while picking up vegetables for Song Qianzhi.
A meal was reluctantly eaten, and there was tea to drink, although it was not a good tea, Song Qianzhi was almost choked to death by the steamed dry and hard rice, and tears flowed down his face when he drank it.
There was nothing to do in the afternoon, Song Qianzhi wanted to go out for a walk, when he opened the door, he saw Zijin, saying that it was not easy to enter the mountain, and he had nothing to do for them today, so he just asked him to go back and rest.
Tossing and turning on the bed, Song Qianzhi couldn't fall asleep, and when he got up, he found that his hands and feet were weak.I reckoned that the ginseng soup I drank was not a drug, but a drug like Ruanjinsan that made people lose strength. It would not hinder his actions, but he couldn't beat people.
In the evening, the boy next door, Jin Shun, came to accompany him and ate the meal, and the people in the village brought water for a bath.
Song Qianzhi murmured in his heart while washing, the weather was cold and windy, washing twice a day, the skin would be torn.
After taking a bath, the ginseng soup came again.
After drinking one bowl, Song Qianzhi drank the second bowl without hesitation.
This building is so elegantly and quietly furnished, it reminds Song Qianzhi of the emperor's harem.He vaguely had an idea in his mind, his face remained calm, and he would do whatever he called it.
After the maids left, they did not take away his dagger.
Song Qianzhi looked like a bride sitting on the bed and waiting on a wedding night when the groom was toasting outside and never entered the bridal chamber.He kept flexing and stretching his fingers to feel how much strength he still had. His hands were like soft gluten, and they still trembled a little when he lifted them.But it's not that you can't hold the dagger completely.
So Song Qianzhi hid the dagger under the pillow and went out to find Jin Shun next door to say something, but he saw that the lamp had already been blown.
"Jin Shun?" Song Qianzhi patted on his door.
No one answered.
Song Qianzhi had no choice but to give up. There were several guards under the building. Hearing the movement, one of them turned around and gave him a malicious look. He turned his head back without saying a word.
The wind is strong at night, the woods are rustling, the mountain is covered with hardy pines and cypresses, the wild wintersweet cannot be carefully nourished and pruned, the flowers that bloom are small and nothing to appreciate, only the cold fragrance is faint , but it is the same as that planted in the courtyard.
With a muffled grunt, a guard who had just walked out of the hut fell down without a sound. His head and feet were on a slope, and then blood spurted from his neck, and finally flowed all over his neck. His feet twitched slightly and stopped moving. .
The black shadow took off his coat, inspected the clothes, and found that there was not much blood on them, then changed into his clothes, picked up his weapon, and went to watch the night in front of the building, and saw a man shivering from cold sitting on the wooden ladder The shrunken guards were rubbing their hands together.
The man didn't lift his head, he just picked the itchy spot on his hand.
"Why have you been here for so long? You stay here. I'll go to the house to warm up the fire for a while. Do you want to eat sweet potatoes? I'll bring you some." When he raised his head, the sharp blade in the other hand cut his throat.
Lu Guan pushed up the square hat, dragged the person on the ground, threw it under the building, picked up some dead branches to cover it, went back to clean up the blood on the ground, grabbed a large handful of wintersweet flowers from his arms, and sprinkled them in front of the building , Crush and step on it with your feet, and then bury the dead leaves nearby.
It was cold and windy, and after a cup of tea, only the fresh scent of wintersweet and the bitter smell of leaves remained in the air.
By God's help, snow began to fall from the sky.
Lu Guan raised the guard's weapon, buried his head on the wooden ladder, and walked to a room with lights on at the end.
There were four or five girls sitting around in the bright big room, one of them cooked and distributed it to the rest of the sisters, the voice came faintly from the hole Lu Guan poked in the window paper.
"...It's too difficult. The main city of Rongzhou is closed, and the official roads are also closed. Business and trade are blocked. Brothers have not fought for a long time. When will they go down the mountain. I don't want to stay in the mountains forever."
"I have to wait for Brother Long to come back."
"Tsk tsk, it's only been a long time since I came up to the mountain, and I completely forgot about the master. I'm not talking about you, Zi Jin, you have to think about the future. In the future, the master will be the master. We all have merit. Marry a general Hou Ye It doesn't matter what, no matter how good Longjinshan is, it's just a bandit..."
The words were not speculative, and Zijin threw the iron poker that poked the brazier down with a clang.
Sparks splashed, several girls quickly shut up and looked at each other, one of them said: "You are not very old, but your temper has grown, so just say a few casual words, if you don't like to listen to it, let it be, why are you so angry?" While talking, he picked up the iron tongs and continued to pull the charcoal fire.
Another woman said: "That's right, you have your own ideas, so let's not talk about it. Hey, the village master hasn't come yet, and I'm always uneasy. The young people who have been harmed by Yan... all these years are always... Dangling in my dreams."
"I dreamed about it too!" A slightly terrified voice sounded.
"Wait, when the time comes, we will go back to the capital with the master. We are just maidservants, obeying orders, wronged and debted. If you want to find it, you can only find Yan Licheng, and you can't find us."
"Drink two sips of tea well, you don't have to spoil the fun, do you want to sleep, I'm going to sleep."
The door opened, and a girl came out. She walked along the wooden corridor in the building to the house hidden by the woods. She didn't take a few steps.
