024 Mountain
The mountain path towards the mountain is curved and complex. Some of them find that the beginning and tail are connected at the end, but it leads people to turn around; some will lead people to the cliff, and there is no way to find it at all; others are full of thorns from the beginning, and it is difficult to walk. There are three sets of formations on the mountain that are decomposed by two instruments and four elephants, and the road is one of them. The other two are trees and rockery. The three arrays pull each other and are connected, which is a barrier to the mountain. No one can break through this array without permission.
In the dense forest, Bai Ding's figure was like lightning, leaping freely. The strangely arranged forest roads in the dark did not make him hesitate at all. After a walk in for a while, there was a cliff in front of me. The bottom of the cliff was dark and bottomless, and the broken walls on both sides towered into the clouds.
After standing, Bai Ding first looked around, and then reached out and touched somewhere on the edge of the cliff. Unexpectedly, he pulled out a black iron cable embedded in the cliff. The iron cable was small and exquisite, interlocking. One end hung high from the top of the cliff, and the other end sank into the endless darkness under the cliff.
Bai Ding reached out and grabbed one of the sections and leaned forward. He climbed tightly on the cliff like a spider. After looking around for a week, he slowly went up along the iron rope and blocked the moonlight on the side of the wall. His figure could not be seen in the dark. He climbed to the top of the cliff at a very fast speed. He crawled on the top of the cliff for a while, and then slowly poked out his head. At this moment, most of the mountain was already at present.
When he got here, he stopped moving. While adjusting his breath, he waited patiently. Seeing that the moon gradually rose to the middle of the sky, to the north and south sides of the foot of the mountain, he suddenly saw the fire rising to the sky. The fire had no warning. When it appeared, it had become a big fire, and a black smoke spread quickly to both sides.
The firelight soared the sky, but he couldn't let Bai Dingduo take a look at the fire. He just stared at the movement under the cliff.
Sure enough, after the rockery under the cliff, four dark shadows came out almost at the same time, and then four more rushed down the mountain road. Eight people gathered together. After discussing the countermeasures, six of them rushed to the place where the fire was on fire at the foot of the mountain, and the other two still returned to the mountain.
Bai Ding's eyes followed the two people closely and watched them turn into the corner of the mountain. After a while, they appeared halfway up the mountain, and the last one hid in the dense forest on both sides of the cave.
Bai Ding stared in that direction for a moment, sneered slightly, and then turned around and returned along the iron rope. After reaching the cliff, he did not take the original road, but still went down the cliff and gradually disappeared to the depths of the bottom of the cliff...
According to Bai Ding's instructions, when Mao Zi and others saw the fire, they shouted and fled down the mountain with a stretcher in a mess. They ran far from the foot of the mountain before they got into the grass. After waiting for a long time, they didn't see anyone chasing them. Finally, they were relieved. After a while, the two set fire also came back, and the seven people lay on the haystack. Deep and so on.
"Is it really ignited? It's dry on this day. If it burns up, it will destroy the mountain. One of them whispered.
"How can you care so much? Hey hey, you two ran fast and didn't let the fire burn your buttocks?" Mao Zi glanced at the two people with a smile.
One of them said, "What, the ignition point is far away from the place. We all ran half a miles away, and then it burned up.
"Ah." Mao Zi said, "Is there such a thing?"
"Isn't it!" One of them was full of excitement on his face. "I looked carefully when I lay there and waited. The place where the ignition was lit was a soft vine with only such a little thin," he stretched out his hand and drew a gesture. "It has been knotted for a long time. It went into the forest. After lighting it, there was no spark at all. There was only a ball of smoke, but it burned quickly. The ground rushed in at once, and I was worried all the way that I didn't light it. Haha, I didn't know how to run out and meet the big head, and then look back. The already burning thief madness behind him is half of the sky.
"I don't know who made that fine vine. Look, it's just a lead, but I've never seen that kind of vine." Another humane.
Maozi's eyes are shining, "Who else is there, the white brother? I got up last night to pee, and he didn't sleep on the side at all.
"This doctor Bai is really hidden, and he doesn't look at it at all."
"You know nothing. It's called a real person who doesn't show his appearance. Maozi patted the man's head and turned his head to look, but he was worried, "Why haven't you come yet?" Nothing will happen."
The other people also look at each other and are very anxious.
Waiting, I don't know who whispered, "Huh? Is the fire gone?
Everyone looked up. Sure enough, the fire that had just burned half of the sky had completely disappeared. It was not windy here, so there was no thick smoke coming, but there was a strong smell of smoke in the air. This Xiangshan Xiangu really has a way. The fire to the sky was extinguished in a blink of an eye. The seven people tuted repeatedly, and they sighed again.
After waiting for a while, I didn't see him come back. I was anxious. I saw a dark shadow suddenly fall gently. I didn't know where it came down and suddenly fell among them. The seven people were stunned, and then they were all ecstatic. "Brother Bai!" Dr. Bai shouted loudly.
Bai Ding handed a cloth bag in his hand to Mao Zi, "It's done. Let's go." Maozi took the bulging bag and grinned. The seven people still followed Bai Ding, tossing around in the mountain road, and quickly returned to the valley.
I didn't expect to get it so soon. Seeing that Maozi and the others were intact, the female village owner was overjoyed. Lao Lin grabbed Bai Ding and looked left and right: "Why do you work hard for unincompetent people? The most abominable thing is not my share!"
Mao Zi groaned and said, "If you want to share, you have to get up."
Lao Lin was furious, "What are you talking about, boy? Not to mention that I only broke one rib, I just broke ten or eight ribs, and you can make a mistake like this. On the side, the stone and others were both helping and making a fuss, making a lot of noise.
Bai Ding really didn't have time to talk to them. He turned around and stared at the one who cooked the medicine. How much water and what the heat should be put, he had to do it all by himself. The female village owner did not stop him, but just followed him. After a while, the medicine was ready, and Bai Ding took it into the house. When he saw that the little six bean sprouts were there, he was naturally stunned. He was still thinking about feeding the medicine, but it didn't work.
A hand was stretched out behind her, and the female village owner said with a smile, "I'll do this kind of work." He walked to Jinzi, slowly fed the medicine, looked up at everyone staring, and said, "What are you doing here? This is not a fairy medicine, Dr. Bai said, you have to drink it for four days. This room is crowded, and people can't breathe. Go out. Start to chase people again.
Although Douya was worried, he took a careful look at the gold and walked out obediently. Xiao Liu looked at the village owner and Bai Ding timidly. It took him a long time to summon up his courage and moved to him: "Bai, Dr. Bai, you saved my second brother, I... thank you." As he spoke, his little face turned red, uneasy and embarrassed.
Bai Ding looked at her thin appearance, stood in front of him, and then reached his shoulder. His big eyes were timid and watery, and his heart was even more uncomfortable. For a moment, he couldn't help it. He reached out and raised his hand and wanted to touch her head. Unexpectedly, he rushed up with the bean sprouts and pulled Xiao Liu to the side. "What are you doing with your hands and feet? Question mark Not to mention that you are getting medicine for my second brother, it is to save his life. If you dare to touch Xiao Liu, he will still fight with you!" He stared at him fiercely while pulling his voice.
The cold female village owner slapped his head firmly and shouted, "What are you biting? They saved your second brother's life. Xiao Liu also knows how to say thank you. You know the number. When your second brother wakes up, I'll wait to see him praise you.
The bean sprout shrank its neck, looked at the gold on the soft chair with some fear, and muttered unconvincedly, "I don't care. If he dares to bully Xiao Liu, I will..."
The female village owner raised her hand again and said, "Which eye did you see people bullying Xiao Liu!" As he spoke, Xiao Liu glanced at him and looked behind him red. He turned around and saw Bai Ding looking at Xiao Liu fixedly. Suddenly, he felt uncomfortable. He grabbed the bean sprouts and retreated together with Xiao Liu. "Roll, go back to the house and stay. Why are you always staying with me!" The two of them asked her to push her out of the house. She slammed the door and said with a smile, "Don't be surprised. This child is very protective.
Bai Ding came to his senses, "I understand." With that, he walked to the gold and gave him the pulse again.
The female owner looked at him and only felt that although the man was inconspicuous, he looked at it more and more pleasing to him. After looking at it for a long time, he finally finished his pulse: "Three times a day, and if you take it for another three days, you should be able to clear the poison. You can't give him something sweet during this period, and there are no other taboos.
The female village owner responded. Seeing that he looked at the gold reluctantly, she said, "Why don't you sleep in this room? In case he wants to change or wake up, it's convenient to take care of him." He also pointed to the side, "I'm not in the way. There is a bed over there. Or, if you sleep in the bed, I can lay on the floor."
Bai Ding said, "How can you wrong the village owner? Naturally, you sleep in the bed. I'll just lay the floor." Unexpectedly, he agreed without saying a word. The female owner of the village was overjoyed, and suddenly asked people to deliver food and water, and they were busy. Mao Zishitou and others moved things in with a smile, while signaling to each other with their eyes. The female village owner only thought they didn't see it.
Lao Lin was naturally not happy, but before he had time to go to the gate of the village, he let Maozi stop him back. Then a few more people came in, all of whom accompanied Bai Ding to Xiangshan. They kept calling him the eldest brother and poured him with wine. As soon as Lao Lin was happy, he forgot about it.
The night was deeper, and the rooms in the valley turned off the lights one by one, but Bai Ding was not sleepy at all. The floor was laid beside the bed of gold, and the light of the fire looked at him quietly. He only felt the ups and downs of thoughts and the past was endless.
It was quiet for a long time, but the village owner said gently, "Are you the big brother they said?"
Hearing this, Bai Ding was quiet for a while before he said, "Have they talked to you?"
"Well, but I don't say much. Jinzi didn't want to say it. This is what Xiao Liu said. Although they never said it, I can see that they are all thinking about it. The female village owner sighed gently.
"Why did they come here?"
"At that time, my grandfather was still there. Although we lived in the deep mountains, we would go to the State of Chu every year. That was, when we met them eight years ago, the four children were as drenched and hungry. Grandpa's heart softened and brought them back."
Bai Ding's heart was in pain and he swallowed gently, "Did they fall on the street?"
"Isn't it? Xiao Liu said that he was originally a maid in a family, but later the family wanted to sell them separately and found someone's teeth. Coincidentally, they eavesdropped and escaped.
Bai Ding was speechless, so he had to follow his anger. The female village owner sighed, "It's natural. Which family is willing to let the slaves and maidservants stay together, and only when they are separated can they play with discipline. Fortunately, they overheard and ran away, otherwise they would have been sold all over the world. My grandfather often said that people are not as good as dogs when they are born in troubled times. The dog of a rich family and a girl serve him, but he can't even ask for a safe place to eat.
"Your grandfather..." Bai Ding calmed down and asked softly.
"I passed away five years ago, and this cottage was left by my grandfather..." The female owner said, and suddenly thought of something and said, "But we never rob the poor. There are old people, children and women, and the caravans don't rob, officers and soldiers don't rob." I don't know if it was Bai Ding's illusion. When she said the last few words, she suddenly gritted her teeth gently.
After a moment of silence, Bai Ding said, "Although it is military service, I will never say everything in this village. If the owner of the village does not believe it, I will swear..."
The owner of the village hurriedly interrupted: "I believe it, and there is no need to swear." He looked at him from afar and said, "Actually, my stockade is just for a quiet and stable place. Usually, men are hunting. Women knit some cloth to change things in the market. We have also opened up a piece of grain ourselves, and we have enough to eat... However, no one here knows medicine. What's wrong with it? It's all nonsense. Take medicine... I, a female streamer, just temporarily support the owner of the village... If so, Dr. Bai doesn't dislike it..." Speaking of the back voice, her voice is getting softer and softer. She is usually used to it. She never thought that one day, she would be in such a dilemma. When I don't know how to speak, her face turned red and purple for a moment. I don't know what to do. That's good.
Bai Ding was stunned when he heard the words. He couldn't help turning his head and looking at her. Looking at her appearance, he didn't know what to say for a moment. But I heard the female owner say, "When Jinzi wakes up and sees you, he will be very happy. They are used to staying here and will be willing to stay, not to mention this troubled time..."
"The beauty of the owner of the village has been understood from the bottom of my heart. It's just that there is still a deep blood vengeance to repay, and I can't stay in the village.
"Revenge?" The female village owner suddenly sat up and stared straight at him, "What do you want to avenge?"
This question was very abrupt, but Bai Ding looked at her and still replied, "We must take revenge."
The owner of the village was stunned, stared at him for a long time, and suddenly said, "Then you take me with me, and I will also take revenge."
Bai Ding was stunned. The female village owner immediately rushed to his shop, clenched her fists tightly, squeezed her mouth like that, and looked down at him condescendingly. Bai Ding had to stand up and look at her. Her big eyes flashed and said, "I gave the stockade to gold and let him be the boss. Take me there. I know martial arts. If you think it's not good enough, then you can teach me and I'll learn everything. You take me there. I'll avenge you. Your revenge is over. You, please help me again. Even if I die for this, I'm not afraid. I must take revenge."
She has no wayward and nonsense expression, but this move really makes Bai Ding helpless, "Zhaizhu, you are doing..."
The village girl stared at him. Suddenly, she grabbed his hand, opened the door, turned around and rushed out. It was not difficult for Bai Ding to break away from her, but she didn't look like a joke, so she had to let him drag her around in the valley. After a few turns, under a mountain wall, she stood: "Here, buried It's my people."
After saying that, she didn't know where to touch it. The fire fold in her hand flashed softly. The torch in her hand was raised high, and Bai Ding was shocked and unable to move.
The graves are overlapping and overlapping, one next to each other, surrounded by a huge dark shadow under the mountain wall. Each grave is extremely small, densely at a glance, and it is impossible to estimate how many there are.
"Every grave is buried with just a skull." The voice of the female village is deep, and there is no sadness at all. Some are, but there is a faint pain. The long hatred is "Three hundred and twenty-six people, including 115 women, sixty-two old people, thirty-one children, and one hundred and one hundred and eighteen men... Their heads are dragged by my grandfather, who dragged his legs, dug them back one by one and picked them up. They lived together before they died, and they can't be separated after death.
It's all skulls!
In this way, these people are all questions. Old and weak women and children. The whole door is beheaded.
Bai Ding slowly took a few steps forward and stretched out his hand to a tombstone standing on the nearest tomb. The torch reflected, there were four bright red characters on the tombstone, which was shocking - "Pine and cypress Evergreen." This is just an ordinary word that can be seen in many cemeteries, but Bai Ding already understood it at this time. What it represents is definitely different from what others think.
Pine, cypress, long, green.
Songhua Village.
He suddenly felt a little weak and held the tombstone to gasp for breath, and the owner of the village had been standing quietly behind him, and his breath was heavy.
"Your surname is Bai?" Bai Ding's voice was extremely light.
The owner of the village trembled slightly: "Now, the surname is Song."
Bai Ding nodded gently and took a deep breath. He turned around. Under the firelight, his thin eyes were as bright as stars: "This revenge must be revenged. I will help you. I will definitely help you." He said this sentence very slowly, but every word fell to the ground with a sound.
The owner looked at him stiffly, and her body trembled involuntarily, from a little bit to every limb, every nerve **, shaking uncontrollably. Suddenly, she hugged him tightly and cried. Her tears were suppressed for too long, so long that she thought they had dried up, and she was so indifferent.
But I didn't expect it, and today,
Even when I was dreaming, I was worried about the secret that I didn't dare to reveal. Today, I can finally release it, although this person is only a first acquaintance. But I feel that I have known him for a long time, or, as before, I have finally waited for someone I can trust.
The owner of Songzhai cried for a long time, and Bai Ding kept patting her on the back of her shoulder. It finally stopped. Bai Ding said, "There is one thing, I can't lie to you. Before I say it, I swear that no matter whether you still think I can trust you in the future, I will take your things into the grave and will never talk to others. If this oath is violated, "
Listening to his cautious tone, the owner of Songzhai quickly wiped away his tears and shook his head and said, "Don't swear. No matter what it is, I believe you."
Bai Ding stared at her for a moment and suddenly smiled: "I'm a woman."
