The restaurant is in a house not far from the inner courtyard. He Qizhou blushed a little when he heard it, but the familiar smell of medicine became stronger and stronger. The owner and his wife personally accompanied them to eat. There was a table full of chicken, duck, fish and meat. I thought I would come early.
Being prepared, the two of them, who had not had much good food in the past two days, ignored the politeness and devoured it. They just ate for a while. When they saw that the two old people didn't move their chopsticks much, they suddenly remembered what they had just heard.
That sentence seemed to come from a teenage girl: "Poor big white and small yellow are all slaughtered!", and he immediately stopped using his chopsticks. He also thought about the poor harvest this year, and the many donations from the valley, and he thought that the future would be better.
It was extremely difficult. He leaned lightly against Lin Chuan, who was still swallowing, under the table, and asked tentatively to the Valley Master: "Zheng Valley Master, Da Bai and Xiao Huang are the chickens and ducks on this table, right?"
When the valley owner heard this, he was stunned at first, and immediately knew the reason. He smiled helplessly and said: "Did you listen to the nagging of those juniors? They must have run here as soon as they heard that outsiders came in. There are not many products in this valley, and there is really nothing good about it.
East and West, we are very kind to you. If you don’t feel sorry for it, how can we feel sorry for it?”
He Qizhou said again: "Valley Master, if my guess is correct, is there another patient in this hospital? Can you let me go and see him?"
The owner of the valley hurriedly said: "Yes, I have a friend, but his illness is no longer serious, and he likes to be quiet. Can you not disturb him?"
He Qizhou asked again: "I am new to medical science. If my guess is correct, this friend is an outsider like us, and he suffered internal injuries?"
The Valley Master was shocked and said: "Young hero is really amazing, I don't know where you got it from?"
He Qizhou smiled and said: "To be fair to the Valley Master, I vaguely heard 'two more are coming' when I came here just now, which means outsiders are coming. I had doubts when I smelled the smell of medicine when I stepped into the first door.
It becomes even clearer when we enter the inner courtyard, because I can be sure that I am the one who prescribed this recipe. Is the outsider who came first surnamed Ji?"
The owner of the valley suddenly said, "You must know him? I'll invite him over right now."
After a while, it was Ji Sheng who walked in. Although his face was still very bad, his spirits were much better. It turned out that after Ji Sheng left Zhang's house that day, he was worried about the safety of the valley and decided to report here. It happened to be a secret place here.
He was recuperating in the countryside, so he felt a little better on the third day, so he hired a carriage to disguise himself and went out of the city, and found the people on guard in Mi Valley outside the mountain. Then the owner of the valley sent someone to take Ji Sheng into Mi Valley.
And Ji Sheng was the first outsider who quietly climbed up the cliff and sneaked into the valley. Seeing the arrival of He Qizhou and Lin Chuan, Ji Sheng was extremely happy and asked the owner of the valley for rice wine, but was blocked by Qi Zhou.
Ji Sheng was still asked to go to Bailian Mountain to find Huang Quan within a month to treat the internal injuries that were still serious. He Qizhou also told Ji Sheng how to solve the rice problem in Jiangling City and rescue people and eliminate evil in Beishan.
After hearing this, Ji Sheng let out a long sigh and said, "I guess I am partly to blame!" It turns out that in the early summer two years ago, several robberies occurred one after another in the Qimen Mountains. Business hotels on the official road were robbed from time to time, and dozens of people were injured.
Several people. Jiangling Mansion sent Wang Ling and Ji Sheng to handle the case. Wang Ling led a large group of people to enter from Nanshan, while Ji Sheng led a few people to guard the back mountain. However, Ji Sheng was lucky enough to arrive at the right time.
A group of business travelers passed by. One of the guards on the business trip was killed and three were injured, but the goods and money were not lost. When Ji Sheng asked, it turned out that they had encountered four vicious robbers. After the guards were killed and injured, they were already in danger, but there was another incident on the mountain.
More than ten people rushed down. After a fight, the four people were captured and taken up the mountain. They also escaped by luck.
Ji Sheng immediately led people to chase them up the mountain, but he was the only one who was good at light kung fu, and the others were soon thrown away and disappeared. Ji Sheng finally caught up with everyone when they were approaching the top of the peak, and secretly followed them over the North Slope Peak.
After reaching the top, he saw a dozen people locking the four robbers in a stone house, and then someone went to the secret valley to report the news. Ji Sheng followed the person who reported the news, and relied on his outstanding light skills to follow up the secret valley.
It was afternoon that day, and the white-haired old man was not at the top of the mountain. No one noticed him along the way. He was only discovered when he reached the bottom of the valley. After a fight, no one was his opponent, and even the valley owner was defeated by him.
Ji Sheng did not hurt anyone. After being the first to show goodwill, the two parties turned enemies into friends. Ji Sheng also learned about the secrets in the mountain and promised to keep them secret. Then he returned to the West Valley, exited from the Nanshan Mountain, and found Jin who was about to enter the West Valley.
Wang Ling, under his guidance, found the four restrained robbers and other dirt in the robbers' hands, and finally solved the case, but the credit went to Wang Ling and others. Ji Sheng calculated
, it was from this that Wang Ling learned that he could enter the West Valley from Beishan. This government attack must have been Wang Ling's idea. Fortunately, the first culprit was killed!
In the next year or two, Ji Sheng saw the hardships of the people in the valley and obtained household loans for some people. He also received help from the valley when he secretly robbed the property of the Chen family bank, and allocated 20% to Migu, who was increasingly struggling to survive.
Migu is very friendly to Ji Sheng, and Ji Sheng can rest here to recover. This time, all of Xigu can be evacuated safely. In fact, Ji Sheng's contribution is not small. His report two days ago has already alerted Migu.
Only then can you choose the most correct path to evacuate.
In the evening, someone reported to the owner of the valley that the government troops had entered the valley from the north and the south. When they saw that everyone had fled, they destroyed all the houses in the valley. The government discovered the narrow cave leading to the valley and the lake outside the cave. Someone
After climbing a hundred feet from there, they all retreated when they saw that the mountain was extremely steep. Now the officers and soldiers have retreated.
He Qizhou and Lin Chuan looked at each other and bowed to the Valley Master: "Valley Master Zheng, we have been harassing you for a long time. Now we are going out of the mountain. The two horses are still on the north slope of the west valley. We are also in a hurry to participate in the martial arts."
Lift."
The owner of the valley hurriedly raised Qi Zhou's arms with both hands and said: "The government just left the west valley. Maybe they are still in the mountains. Let's leave tomorrow. I also asked people to pay attention to the situation outside the valley. I really wanted to keep you two for a few more days."
, but I’m sorry to delay your schedule. Yuan’er has already asked someone to tell me about the horse, so there should be no problem in a day or two.”
He Qizhou had no choice but to agree. He was just wondering why the Valley Master had to rub his arms with his hands even though he was supporting him. Is it the etiquette in the Valley? Without thinking too much, he paid attention to Ji Sheng's medication.
He wrote two more letters to report that he was safe and asked him to bring them to Huang Quan and He Lian. Ji Sheng also understood that it was actually He Qizhou who wanted Huang Quan to try his best to heal himself, so he was very grateful!
The next morning, it was clearly past Chen hour, but the valley was still dark, with thick clouds above their heads. He and Lin had already had breakfast and wanted to say goodbye to the owner of the valley, but after asking around, no one knew where the owner was.
Wherever he went, everyone said that no one had been seen since last night. When he asked Ji Sheng, he didn't know why. If He Qizhou hadn't gotten the treasure armor yet, he would have asked Ji Sheng to say goodbye on his behalf.
After a while, I saw the owner of the valley hurriedly walking over with a cloth package in his hand, saying: "I'm sorry to keep you two waiting. The sunrise in the mountains is at least an hour later than outside. There are many dark places when climbing mountains. Last night
It's raining again, and it's still a bit dangerous. You might as well wait for another half an hour, there will be news coming from outside the valley soon." After saying that, he spread the package in his hand on the table and opened it, only Qi Zhou's precious armor was inside.
, and there is also a pair of cylindrical objects made of the same armor, about one foot long and three inches wide.
The owner of the valley first picked up the piece of armor with trembling hands and said, "Little brother, there are still some armor pieces and spider silk used to make the armor in the valley. The armor has been repaired as before." Then he picked up the pair of pillars.
The shaped armor piece said: "The treasure armor was originally intended to cover the entire upper body, but the material was really not enough, so it could only be made into the style of the vest today. However, there were some extra armor pieces, which we have kept, and now it is just right.
The size of your arms makes a pair of arm guards enough to withstand ordinary sharp weapon attacks!"
He Qizhou was excited and asked softly: "The Valley Master stroked my arms yesterday, did you intend to make this arm guard for me overnight? No wonder Zheng Zheng also knows about my armor. It turns out that he has also seen the armor pieces you collected.
! Valley Master, this is your family heirloom, I deserve it!"
The Valley Master was already quite old, and a night's work was very exhausting. He said slightly tiredly: "Young hero, I'd better call you little brother. How can I repair the armor and make arm guards so quickly? Yes.
I helped my second uncle to do it. Don't put it down. These armor plates are really worthless if we keep them here. I haven't seen my uncle's focused and prepared look for a long time. Only users can
Giving full play to its effectiveness is what we craftsmen are truly proud of, so please accept it. In fact, I am still a little selfish. You will definitely become famous. Our valley cannot hide forever. I hope you can do more to the people in the valley in the future.
Take care of.”
He Qizhou nodded vigorously and said: "I accept the treasure armor. My goal is to regain the lost land in Hebei and rectify the name of my adoptive father. If I really gain military exploits one day, I will definitely ask the Holy Lord for this place as a fief! Before I leave, I
I want to thank Mr. Zheng again, but I wonder if he still remembers me?"
The owner of the valley said: "We will go up the mountain together in a while. He is probably almost at the top of the mountain now."
Overnight, a layer of white snow accumulated on the peaks everywhere. On the top of the northeast peak, Old Master Zheng sat alone on the boulder on the top of the mountain, his snow-white eyebrows flying in the wind in the clouds and mist, like a fairy, looking towards the direction.
Qi Zhou and Lin Chuan, who bowed to each other, and Zheng Bin, who was standing aside, solemnly said: "Xiao Bin'er, tell your son not to be so outspoken in the future, and to salute every time he comes over!"
The three of them looked at each other and smiled. After Qi Zhou's repeated request, Zheng Bin stopped and watched the two of them go down the mountain. After another half-day of hiking, the two of them went down to the west valley and sighed at the ruins of the land; when they crossed the mountain in the north, they saw the burning
After many twists and turns, I finally found the horses left behind the day before. The grass around the tree where the horses were tied had long been eaten away. I saw that Lin Chuan's horse was just neighing, but it looked like the weird-looking old yellow horse.
As if he was not surprised, he first bit Qi Zhou's hem and then pulled the reins.
Qi Zhou understood and immediately untied the reins, saying apologetically: "It happened unexpectedly. I've been starving you for the past two days. Just leave it alone from now on." The yellow horse seemed to understand, unlike Lin Chuan's horse.
As soon as they were freed from the restraints, they went to eat grass. They approached Qi Zhou, lowered their horses' heads, and enjoyed Qi Zhou's caress. After feeding the horses, the two of them stopped delaying and quickly headed west, pointing straight towards Luoyang...
End of Volume 1
As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. I never thought that because of the epidemic, I would try to write a novel when I had nothing to do. I originally wrote thousands of year-end summaries at most, but I didn’t expect that I could easily compile twenty in one breath.
An article of tens of thousands of words. Because I grew up in the world of Jin Yong and Gu Long, I didn’t want to write my first novel so mysteriously, so it’s natural that it didn’t receive much attention. Martial arts seems to have become outdated.
But looking at the fairy tales, urban novels, and time travel novels that have attracted the most attention, they actually just put a layer of vest on martial arts. Looking back, they really didn’t have a stunning beginning.
Let's go back to this novel. The historical background is fictional. The Southern and Northern Dynasties, the Song Dynasty, the late Yuan and the early Ming Dynasty all had a similar structure of the Three Kingdoms. Of course, most of the official systems were based on the Ming Dynasty, just for everyone's convenience.
Understand; geography is a combination of reality and fiction. Jiangling Prefecture should be located in Anhui, on the north bank of the Yangtze River across from Nanjing. Luoyang is Luoyang. Most of the place names in the future are also a combination of reality and fiction, but most friends who are familiar with geography should be able to tell where it is.
.Because there are fictional elements, sometimes the names are rather random. Readers who are confused about historical facts and geography, please bear with me.
I had previously imagined that each volume could almost tell a story independently, or a stage of growth. Because of the power of the writing, I decided to tell the story step by step from when the protagonist was young. The first volume mainly talks about the defeat of the Chen family.
A conspiracy to save the people affected by the disaster in Gangneung. Because it was a disaster, it was really impossible to write a humorous and refreshing feeling.
But the disaster has to be written. The wind started at the end of Qingping. It was precisely because of the flood in the south and the drought in the north that it broke the political balance within Qi State and made some powers ready to move. It also broke the balance among the three countries and became a temporary state.
The fuse of the national war after the Taiping. But please forgive me if you are a military enthusiast, the military is only one part of the main plot. What is really about is the love and hatred of the protagonist He Qizhou.
The protagonist in my mind is a young man who is wise, just, brave, kind, tenacious, confident, humorous, a little ruffian, and a little soft-hearted. Wisdom can be said to be He Qizhou's biggest advantage. With this advantage, we arranged for him to meet
You won't have too many adventures, and you won't become a top player in one step. This has been fully revealed in casinos, rice fraud and other incidents.
Maybe it is my first time to write a novel, and I am not sure whether the expression is clear? Is it gripping and makes people feel suddenly enlightened? Anyway, things like this kind of reasoning and judgment based on wisdom will almost appear in every volume in the future.
Please don’t laugh at me. I have been a fan of Jin Yong and Gu Long since I was a child. I just wanted to write my first novel as a Gu Long-style Jin Yong novel with the characteristics of modern online novels.
I don’t know how many people will read this paragraph at the end of the volume. If you have read the first volume, please be sure to read the second volume. Maybe you can guess that the second volume mainly talks about martial arts. Indeed, the plot
It is indeed a bit old-fashioned, but the second volume is almost finished. In my opinion, the writing is much better than the first volume, and there is almost no sense of depression. Even I, the author, do not dislike it. I think
It has to be read in one sitting, so please relax and read on. My goal is to make each volume better than the last!
Finally, I wish you all a happy New Year and all the readers and employees of Zongheng all the best in the Year of the Tiger!
