Chapter 530 Geography of the mountains and rivers of the Northern Ming Dynasty

The fifth day of the first lunar month, the fifth update.

Before dawn, Feng Cailing had already cleaned up, packed up the things for the bag application, blew out the candles, quietly slipped out of the door, and gently closed it for fear of alarming the piano in the next courtyard.

Feng Cailing swept out of his house and came to the main hall.

Because she discussed early with Mr. Mingyue, the soul messenger and the spiritual brother of the master, she invited her to leave quietly on the fifth day of the first lunar month and did not say goodbye to everyone.

It's better not to send it to the parting.

Outside the main hall of the cold ice gate, the sleigh of three horses is ready, and in the main hall of the cold ice gate, Leng Wuxin, Mr. Mingyue and the soul messenger have been waiting for a long time.

Leng Wuxin was telling the two: "Mingyue, be more careful along the way. It is inevitable that you will meet the spies sent by the rebel generals of Beiming Jiuyou. They will take turns to drive the sled, walk day and night, and the journey of more than 3,000 miles will arrive in seven or eight days. The soul messenger is the most familiar with the road and also grows in Beiming Jiuyou. Everything is ."

Mr. Mingyue nodded. Seeing that Feng Cailing was also ready, he smiled and said, "It didn't disturb Qin Er, ha ha, it's time for us to go."

Feng Cailing smiled and said, "Everything is fine. Let's go."

The master said coldly and heartlessly, "You have to take care of Feng Cailing along the way. She has never been far away. This walk is thousands of miles away. If you go to Beihai again, it will be thousands of miles away. Without further ado, you go. It's time for me to go on the road the day after tomorrow.

The soul messenger and Mr. Mingyue bowed, and the soul messenger said, "Lord, don't worry, I've been there all the way. We blatantly rushed to the Northern Underworld, but the master wanted to change his appearance, and it was not easy to come secretly. After the Lantern Festival, Beimingyou will meet again and say goodbye!"

Mingyue also said goodbye to Leng Wuxin, and Feng Cailing was blessed, which was regarded as saying goodbye.

The three got on the sleigh, and the soul messenger drove on, beat the horse and whip. While the sky was not clear, they quietly went out of the ice door, leaving the master to stand on the cold step and wave goodbye.

The enchanted messenger drove a sleigh out of the ice valley, crossed the frozen village, and sped past the ancient road.

When dawn, the snowfield gradually flattened, and there was a world of ice and snow everywhere.

Mr. Mingyue is still the first time to travel such a long way to the northern border of the Snow Country. He smiled and said, "Brother Gouhun, is it easy for us to go to Xihe Island on the way to Beiming Jiuyou? Is it also a flat river?"

The enchanted messenger smiled and said, "This journey is more than 3,000 miles to the northwest. First, we have to go around the salty mountains, and then cross the three rivers. There are several large mountains on the way, but there are smooth roads, but it's just a farther way around. No matter how slow we walk day and night, we will arrive within ten days."

Mr. Mingyue sighed, "Oh! That's not bad. Who would have expected that Su Wu's sheep-grazing place was so far away? It would take 3,000 miles from the Snow Country, and it would be even more amazing if he walked from the Central Plains of Guannei.

Feng Cailing said, "In the past, Su Wu spent 19 spring and autumns on the banks of the North Underworld Sea. Now that we have rushed to the secluded capital of the North Underworld, will we also be imprisoned and trapped in the Northern Underworld like Su Wu?"

Mr. Mingyue smiled and said, "If you are here, it will be the same wherever I go. Even if I herd sheep on the bank of the Northern Underworld, it's a very pleasant thing to think."

Feng Cailing said lightly, "Laer it, you have your suffering with me. Maybe you will be directly beaten into the 18th floor of hell by the underworld Yan Luo."

Mr. Mingyue said, "Brother, do you really have a yin Cao hell in Beiming Jiuyou?"

While driving the sleigh, the soul messenger laughed and said, "No, Beiming Jiuyou is not a ghost city of the capital. Where did the hell come from? The nine tribes in the far north gathered on the bank of the Northern Ming Dynasty, which is for the Jiuyou tribe. The Beiming Sea is often clear during the day, and the lake is clear. At night, the wind is strong and rain, and suddenly the waves are rolling. Therefore, people are often called the land of the underworld, and the place where they gather is the secluded capital, and they think that they are extraordinary people who live on the bank of the northern underworld, so they also call the people of the nine secluded tribes on the side of the underworld as gods and demons.

Mr. Mingyue nodded and said, "That's it. I often heard that the land of Huainan, Jiangnan and Jingxiang was called Dongyi Jiuli in ancient times, which was also a tribal alliance. Now Beiming Jiuyou seems to be the same. It's just strange why the night of the underworld is completely opposite to that of the day, and there is a dragon to play the blame?

The soul messenger said, "Theming Sea is the largest lake in the world, just like the big lake in the south of the sky is called Erhai. The underworld is so big that I don't know how many thousands of miles it is, and there are many spiritual beasts around it. How can it be? Kunpeng, a mythical beast, is in theming Sea. Don't you hear that there is a fish in the northern Ming Dynasty? Its name is Kun, and it turns into a bird, and its name is Peng. Our Jiuyou tribe is regarded as the god of the Northern Underworld. Fortunately, the mythical beast Kunpeng only set off huge waves and changes in the night. There is no movement in the daytime. I think we respect the gods, and the gods also understand our grievances, so that our Jiuyou tribe can have a place to live in peace.

Mr. Mingyue and Feng Cailing suddenly felt it. Mr. Mingyue touched the water beads in his arms and smiled, "Brother, we have water beads. I think we can go down to the underworld to see what the mythical beast Kunpeng looks like."

The soul messenger smiled and said, "You are not afraid that Kunpeng will eat you or anger it. That's really good. Maybe even the Northern Underworld will be implicated by you, and it will be miserable."

Feng Cailing also smiled and said, "Yes, the mythical beast Kunpeng must have taken your water beads and pulled them to the underworld to feed the fish."

Mr. Mingyue laughed and said, "You are too cruel to think about the disadvantages. I think the mythical beast Kunpeng can't lie dormant during the day and only come out to move out at night. It can be said that it is excellent and reasonable for the Jiuyou tribe. If it were others and other fairy monsters, they would not have allowed others to snort on the side of the couch. They would have driven away the Jiuyou tribe early, so how could they be allowed to rest on the side of the underworld.

The enchanted messenger nodded and said, "Hmm! The Mingyue brothers are right. We have the gods and demons of Beiming Jiuyou today. Thanks to the protection of the gods, and because of this, the leaders of our Jiuyou tribe, the Tenth Hall Yanjun and Tiancan Left Envoy, have a few people who oppose the spirit brother. After all, Xinge is not Kunpeng and can't protect the safety of Beiming.

Mingyue and Feng Cailing were silent.

Before noon, three horse sleds had passed through the mountains of Noxian Mountain and reached the western foothills of Noxian Mountain.

It was easy to find a small village and town. The three of them went in and bought some tea and rice, and continued to travel. Mr. Mingyue and the soul messenger took turns to drive a sled all the way to the northwest.

The enchanted messenger pointed to the road and smiled, "Brother Mingyue, after crossing the salty mountains, this road is the Sanjiang Plain, thousands of miles of fertile fields in the snow country. There are many swamps in spring and summer, and the road is the most difficult to walk. Now thousands of miles is frozen, but it is a snowfield. It is best to walk, and there are many people. We just have to hurry on our way and don't be afraid of missing thesu tou.

Mr. Mingyue said, "Brother, what about the three rivers after thousands of miles? Is it not easy to go on the road?

The enchanted messenger said: "The main reason is that there are long ridges that run through the north and south. We have to cross the long mountains of the forest sea, and then there are the vast fields in the far north. The desert is lonely and cold and frozen. Although there are few people, it is better to walk than the long mountains. This way to the desert is only 2,000 miles away from the long mountains, which is the underworld sea of the north. ."

Feng Cailing said, "I often heard that Changling separates our snow country and the desert, which is the largest mountain in the snow country, and is also the only way to the Northern Ming Jiuyou. Soul brother, will those Northern Ming Jiuyou rebels be ambushed there?"

The soul messenger said, "Brother Xin, the master along the road, has set up several pavilions, which were originally sent by Beiming Jiuyou, but now they have fallen into the hands of rebel generals. Therefore, Brother Xin did not ask us to go to various pavilions along the way. He only teaches day and night to guard against the spies of the traitors. I think there must be traitors guarding and monitoring people in Changling.

Mr. Mingyue drove a sleigh and turned around and said, "Brother Soul, when we pass this thousand miles of fertile field and are about to reach Changling, I will wear a mask of Yi Rong, and Yi Rong will change into a disguise, so as not to waste a lot of time on the road."

Feng Cailing said, "Anyway, we are blatantly sent to Beiming. What can they do to us? It's okay for them to see it."

The enchanted messenger also nodded and said, "Well, we are going to Mingli to let the traitorous detectives find out. In the morning newspaper, Yu You knew that the master did not come in person. They may be relieved."

Mr. Mingyue drove a sled all the way. On the thousands of miles of fertile fields in the Sanjiang Plain, it was a smooth road to Pingchuan, driving the horse-drawn sled very fast.

The soul messenger said, "Like the Mingyue brothers, you will definitely arrive in Liaodong County before dark."

Mr. Mingyue said, "I heard that Liaodong County is a big county in Guanwai Xueguo. I think it must be very lively, which is not the same as Liyang County we passed by in northern Xinjiang."

The enchanted messenger smiled and said, "Exactly! There is a hall set up by our school in Liaodong County. Don't you want to go?

Feng Cailing said, "As you expected, the post of our teaching hall in Liaodong County has already been in the hands of the rebel generals in the north. Let's throw it into another inn."

Mr. Mingyue and the soul messenger nodded, and Mr. Mingyue beat the horse and tried to get to Liaodong County before dark.

Although the terrain of the Sanjiang Plain is flat and the sleigh slides fast, the wind is cold, especially in the first lunar month, and the cold wind blows all over the sky, wandering in the wilderness of the snowfield, and there is a heroic spirit.

Xueguo, Liaodong County.

Before dusk, Mr. Mingyue drove a sled and saw the city of Liaodong County from afar. It was indeed a big county of Xueguo, which was more than several times longer than the wall of Liyang County in northern Xinjiang, like a majestic gate standing on the vast snowfield.

Mr. Mingyue approached in a sleigh and saw that there were more people entering and leaving the city gate, especially at dusk.

The enchanted messenger smiled and said, "Oh, it's finally here. Thank you for your hard work, Brother Mingyue."

Mr. Mingyue smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. It's important for us to go to the city to find the inn."

As soon as he arrived at the gate, Mr. Mingyue was driving a sled and was about to rush in. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a black and thin guy in the crowd sneaking into the sleigh. Seeing that Mr. Mingyue noticed him, the figure flashed and got into the crowd.

Mr. Mingyue clearly saw the black and thin guy wrapped in a medicinal cloth on his left ear, and his heart moved.

When he came back from Wuxu Village in Wuxian Mountain a year ago, Mr. Mingyue once heard the leader Leng Wuxin say that when he had dinner with Uncle Wang in the frozen village outside the ice valley on the 30th, he caught two detectives from Beiming Jiuyou in Zhou's sister-in-law's small winery. One was a black-faced and skinny royal rat, and the other was ugly but very tough. , were cut off their ears by the master inadtentionally as a punishment, and ordered them to go back to report to the rebel general Tian Can Zuo of Beiming, saying that the master will come to Beiming Youdu at the beginning of spring, so that they can prepare for their sister's house early.

At that time, both the rat and the evil man fled with their ears covered. Mr. Mingyue heard what the master said, so today it was just a glance and immediately understood that this black and thin guy must be a rat, but he didn't know where the evil came from? Presumably, the two of them should be in this Liaodong County.

Mr. Mingyue secretly said that they had not left in the past few days and were still shrinking in Liaodong County, which was only hundreds of miles away from the ice valley. It was unknown that there was still a mission, or that the Guanyi in Liaodong County was their temporary place to settle down.

At present, Mr. Mingyue did not move his face and did not look back to say to Feng Cailing and the soul messenger. He still drove the sled into the city and found the Xiangyun Inn facing the street at will in the east of the city.

Mr. Mingyue tightened his reins and drank the horse, jumped into the snow sled, and glanced at the street intentionally or unintentionally. Sure enough, he saw the black-faced and skinny rat with an ear probing his head at the door of a shop.

Mr. Mingyue smiled and said, "Princess Feng Cailing, big brother, let's stay in this Xiangyun Inn, regardless of size. In short, it's closer to the street, which is more convenient."

The soul messenger said, "Listen to the Mingyue brothers, we naturally have no different meanings."

When Mr. Mingyue unloaded his luggage, he also used the afterglow of his eyes to look at the rat, but it disappeared.

Mr. Mingyue smiled secretly and entered the Xiangyun Inn with the enchanted messenger and Feng Cailing. Everything was arranged. When Mr. Mingyue saw that there were no other guests in the courtyard, he said to the two of them, "We just saw that the royal rat under the remnant seat has been following since we entered the city. Until we came to the inn, he Go back."

Feng Cailingqi said, "Why didn't you say it earlier? You haven't seen the rat. How can you recognize him?

Mr. Mingyue smiled and said, "I was going to stop him at that time. Didn't I startle the snake? Although I have never seen a rat, the master said that his appearance and posture also cut off the rat and evil ears. As soon as I saw his black and sneaky appearance, wrapped his ears, isn't it the rat?

The soul messenger also smiled and said, "Well, it seems that this guy didn't leave and stepped on the plate. Hey hey, we put down the luggage and let the store feed the horses. Then we will rush to the hall to see if they dare to see us."
