After feeding the exiled criminals, she was forced to reveal herself

"What?! Didn't you look around?"

"Looking for it! A few of us searched separately around the old temple, but we didn't see anyone. We didn't dare to shout in the mountains before dawn, so we could only look for people along the commonly used trails or places with footprints. , still not found.”

An old uncle frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Are there any wild beast tracks around?"

"That's not true. Wild animals in the Western Mountains don't usually pass by the old temple. We didn't find anyone, so we planned to go down the mountain. Passing by the second ridge, we found many traces of entering the mountain. Brother Shanhe took us to follow the footsteps and found that the second ridge There are many people over at Lingping Valley, and they have set up altars there!"

After speaking, he took a deep breath and said, "We don't know what they are doing. Brother Shanhe said they seem to be looking for something in the mountains."

"Is that loud noise in the mountains related to them?"

"I don't know. We were about to go down the mountain when the earthquake hit us. The mountain shook and the ground shook and we almost lost our lives."

"It's broken!" Gao Shusheng secretly said something bad and hurriedly called to the people next to him: "Hurry up and find Shanhe. Make sure they be careful and don't be impulsive. Leave someone there to keep an eye on him and let him find Sophora japonica."

The old uncle couldn't help but stand up with his crutches, with a serious expression: "They foreigners don't understand the rules of the old temple in the mountains at all. If this angers the mountain god, our whole village will suffer."

When everyone heard this, they were filled with indignation and cursed one after another.

"No wonder Sister-in-law Huaihua said that there was a big disaster in the village, and we still thought that it was our own family that caused the trouble. Now, look, it is an outsider who caused the trouble!"

"Li Zheng, old uncle, please think of a solution quickly."

Gao Shusheng was also worried, "Why are they all coming to our village all of a sudden?"

The old uncle on the side suddenly fell silent, and his turbid old eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was remembering something old.

The surrounding villagers were talking a lot, and Gao Shusheng noticed something strange on the old uncle's face.

"Uncle, what are you always thinking about?"

"I'm thinking that Sophora japonica has always said that the crisis in Gaojia Village requires the help of noble people to resolve it."

When Gao Shusheng heard this, he hurriedly raised his hand to stop everyone's noise. Seeing this, the other villagers shut up and looked at the two of them without knowing why.

Gao Shusheng tried hard to recall the words that Sophora japonica repeatedly chanted before entering the mountain...

The old uncle raised his head, stared at Gao Shusheng, and said: "At first Sophora japonica said that noble people are rare and told us not to miss them, but she couldn't tell what noble people were like. She hesitated and couldn't say a complete sentence. Can you still say it?" Are you impressed?"

Of course Gao Shusheng had an impression. At that time, his father was still alive and he had not yet gotten married.

Seeing that he seemed to have some understanding on his face, the old uncle said again: "I have been thinking about the disaster and the noble person that Sophora Huahua mentioned over the years. The closer to the time she predicted, the more doubtful I become. Is this accurate? In the past years, the harvest was average, but this year it was stronger than before, and it didn’t look like something was going to happen. I didn’t expect that winter was coming, and a team of exiles as big as theirs entered the village."

The old man paused and said, "Shu Sheng?"

"I'm here, old uncle, please tell me your old words." Gao Shusheng responded.

"Our village has never had so many outsiders come to our village at once. I guess the noble people that Sophora japonica was talking about must be among these people. They all rush to the Western Mountains, and the Western Mountains are not peaceful."

"Then let me take the young people into the mountains to have a look. Outsiders don't understand the rules in the mountains, and we can't let them do whatever they want." Gao Shusheng had already thought this in his mind just now.

The old uncle thought for a while and nodded, "That's fine. You can take people over to take a look. I'm relieved. By the way, before entering the mountain, you go to the village temple to worship. When you put on the incense sticks and say something, the bag in the village temple asks. Take the road stones with you, and bring something else with you, just in case."

"Row!"

The peace of Gaojiacun was broken by a sudden accident early in the morning.

Three pillars of light smoke were lit from the incense burner in the village temple.

Gao Shusheng took the young people from the village into the mountains through another road.

*
The carriage arrived not far from the foot of the Western Mountain when another loud noise came from the mountain!
The horses were startled, and there was constant neighing all around! "Uu——"

Everyone hurriedly pulled the reins and tried to calm the frightened horse.

As we were walking in the morning, we just passed the frightened prisoners and encountered another earthquake. They were so frightened that they fell to the ground and shivered. Soon there was a lot of noise around them, and many people shouted to run for their lives!
The guards hurriedly caught the fleeing prisoners from all directions and kept them under strict supervision.

This time, because of the extra men and horses under Wang Chong and the large number of officers and soldiers, the riot was quickly put down.

The prisoners were huddled in a crowd, their faces full of fear, and no matter how hard the guards beat and scolded them, they refused to go any further.

Although he knew that he might die on the way to exile, no one was willing to take risks as long as he could survive.

Wang Chong's carriage was in front, not far from the foot of the mountain.

There were rocks rolling down the mountain, and the horses leading the cart were frightened. They stamped their hooves on the spot and snorted heavily, and refused to go any further.

In the carriage, Wang Chong was chatting with Xie Yuchuan when his rival invited experts from other countries to come here to fight. Several foreigners under his disciples were not as good as others and were seriously injured by each other.

The matter could be big or small. The other party was too arrogant and now greedy. Wang Chong said that he was too angry, so he came to ask Xie Yuchuan for help.

Before we get to the key point, something happened outside.

Wang Chong lifted the car curtain and asked in a deep voice: "What's going on?"

Ma Yuan turned around and replied: "Sir, there was a loud noise in the Western Mountains. Just now, the mountains shook and the ground shook. The falling rocks frightened the horses. It's okay now."

Wang Chong looked ugly, looked up at the mountain, and couldn't help but cursed: "You don't know how to live or die, how dare you disturb Tai Sui!"

Xie Yuchuan frowned, "Do you know who is responsible for the strange movement in the mountain?"

At this point, Wang Chong could no longer hide it from him, "Who else could it be? Just the person I told the Major General just now, for the sake of a bad breath, invited foreign magicians to go rampant in our country and give them face." ”

Xie Yuchuan was silent for a moment.

A faint smile reached his ears.

The aroma was always lingering in the carriage. Xie Yuchuan looked at Wang Chong opposite who couldn't help but curse. From beginning to end, the other party didn't know that they were not the only ones in the carriage.

Wang Chong even saw him standing upright in the carriage and mistakenly thought it was the Xie family's tutor who did it, and politely praised the Xie family's extraordinary family style.

A gentleman should be careful in his own way, and he saw it in Xie Yuchuan.

Only Xie Yuchuan himself knows what it is about him to be a gentleman who is cautious about independence and respects himself.

That's because there is a "god" beside him.

How dare he show any disrespect.

There are always some concerns in my heart.

At this time, he heard the laughter of the family god. Without waiting for a concentrated response, he only heard the family god say to him:
"There is indeed something unusual in the mountains. I'll go check it out for you. If it's not troublesome, I'll make them quiet."

Hearing this, Xie Yuchuan suddenly said out of thin air: "Thank you for your hard work."

The next moment, the fragrance around him disappeared in an instant.

The house god left.

Wang Chong suddenly turned his head and stared at him, hesitated for a while, and asked: "Who was the young general talking to just now?"
