The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 676

After Yang Yong and the six left the barracks secretly, they beat horses like flying, and rushed to Tianchi Mountain day and night.

Yang Yong thinks that his Qianli Rouge Beast is a real BMW horse, which can travel thousands of miles a day, and at this speed, it can be reached in less than a day.

But in fact it is not like this. The so-called daily travel of thousands of miles is not an exaggeration. Some people have done tests. The sprint speed of sweaty BMW can reach 60 kilometers per hour, and the speed of Mongolian horse can reach 50 kilometers per hour. The daily travel is calculated according to this speed thousands of miles.

But the speed of sprinting cannot be equal to the speed of long-distance running. No matter how good a horse is, the sprinting speed should not exceed half an hour, otherwise it may cause sudden heartbeat and sudden death, which is often said to exhaust the horse to death.According to relevant records, in ancient times, in order to transmit documents, post stations were built between cities. Generally, urgent official documents traveled 300 miles a day, and the fastest and fastest urgent documents did not exceed 600 miles a day.

Therefore, based on this, we can infer that the average speed of ancient war horses was 20-30 kilometers per hour.

In addition, although Yang Yong's horse is fast, he is not walking alone, he has to take care of the other five people, and no one has ever been to Tianchi Mountain, so he is afraid of going the wrong way, so he has to ask questions along the way. Eating, drinking and sleeping on the bed made it even slower.Therefore, they only traveled more than 260 miles on the first day, and it was getting dark.

Even so, in order to hurry, the six people still missed Sutou, and they couldn't leave until the second watch.It was too dark, and the people and horses were tired, but looking at the people who couldn't see the village or the store, it was impossible to stay in the hotel. The last six people had to spend the night in the wilderness.

The six people found a good place, got off the horse, ate a few mouthfuls of dry food, drank a few mouthfuls of water, led the horse for a walk, let the horse gnaw on the spot, and finally tied it to a tree. The six people were divided into two shifts. Rest, just like that, spent the night in the wilderness.

At dawn on the second day, the six people got on their horses and set off. When the third day was approaching evening, they came to a village called Youfang Town. After inquiring, it was more than [-] miles away from Tianchi Mountain, so Yang Yong was relieved. , I can arrive in half an hour at most, but it is getting dark and the road is not familiar. It seems that I can’t enter the mountain today. I will enter the mountain tomorrow morning and get the Jiuzi lotus. I can go back tomorrow. , In this round-trip conversion, it will take up to six or seven days to finish.

As soon as Yang Yong relaxed, Yang Yong felt hungry, and took five people into a restaurant called Xilaike.

The waiter in the shop is very good at soliciting business. When he saw the customers, he greeted them with a smile and chattered endlessly: "Hey, you guys, are you staying or eating? Our shop is clean and friendly. The price is fair and the service is first-class. ..."

Yang Yong saw that the waiter in this shop was about sixteen or seventeen years old, he was thin, with a towel on his shoulders, a handful hat on his head, and a shrewd face, and said with a smile: "Boy, we live here The restaurant is eating again, and we need two first-class guest rooms, and one table for the first-class banquet, and we have to take care of our horses’ washing and drinks, so we must pay more.”

"Master Haoleke, let's talk about it, I'm sure you are satisfied. Please come with me." The second child gave in enthusiastically, and then called out a few more confessions, and put Yang Yong and the six of them together. The horse took it and took it to the backyard, and let Yang Yong and others go to a private room on the second floor facing the street.

Yang Yong saw that the environment here was indeed good. The newly decorated room was well lit, and the mahogany tables and chairs were spotlessly cleaned.

But the waiter still wiped the tables and chairs again, poured some tea for them, and turned to leave, but Yang Yong called him back, "Guys, please stay."

"My lord, do you have any orders?"

"I want to ask you, isn't this place far from Tianchi Mountain?"

"Oh, it's not far away. It's only 50 miles south of Youfang Town."

When Yang Yong heard it, it was the same as what he had just inquired about. This should be correct, and he asked again, "Is there a Tianchi Lake on Tianchi Mountain?"

Xiao Er looked at Yang Yong and the others again, and said with a smile: "I see that these guests are really from other places. Tianchi Mountain, Tianchi Mountain, is named after Tianchi Lake, of course there is Tianchi Lake."

"Where is Tianchi? How to get there?" Yang Yong looked very excited.

"Tianchi is on Tianchi Peak, the main peak of Tianchi Mountain. If you go into the mountain, you will find Tianchi Peak about [-] miles away, and it will be more than ten miles to the top of the mountain. You will find Tianchi. What are you doing, don't you want to go into the mountains to see the Tianchi Lake?" Xiao Er was joking.

When Yang Yong heard this, Tianchi is still so far away from here?There are still fifty miles away from Tianchi Mountain, eighty miles to the top of the mountain, and more than ten miles to the peak. In this way, there are still 150 miles to go tomorrow. I thought I would arrive after entering the mountain. I have to walk for half a day.It seems that this Tianchi Mountain is really not small, even if it is a hundred miles into the mountain, we who are not familiar with the place are going to go wrong, wouldn't it be a waste of time?
Seeing Xiao Er's question, Yang Yong smiled and said: "Man, to be honest, we really want to see Tianchi, can you help find a guide, we must pay more, so that he does not run errands for nothing. "

Before Yang Yong could finish his sentence, Xiaoer looked terrified, even waved his hands and shook his head, "Master Ke, no, no, no, I can't help you with this busy guy, and I can't find such a person."

"Man, why? Can't we pay more? How much silver do you want, 30 taels or 50 taels, as long as he says the number." Li Wan'er interjected.

The clerk smiled wryly at Li Wan'er: "My little brother, it's not about the money. You don't know about it. There are thieves on the Tianchi Mountain. This is one of them. In addition, the Tianchi is not clean. It is said that there are ghosts there. No one who goes to Tianchi is alive. Come back, no one is alive, no corpse is dead, think about it, who dares to be a guide for a few masters in such a place, no matter how much money you pay, you can’t give up your life, the younger ones also persuade a few, it’s best to be okay Don't go to that kind of place." After speaking, Xiaoer walked away in a panic with a look of fear on his face.

Luo Shiying, Li Wan'er, Bai Yu, Zhang Bao, Ma Long and others were a little silly when they heard it. There are thieves in the mountains, and Tibetan bandits in the mountains. The Tianchi is not clean, and the ghosts make the back of their necks chill when they think about it.

Yang Yong was amused in his heart, saying that the ancients were superstitious, it seems true, you see these are generals galloping on the battlefield under his command, they all turn furious when they say there are ghosts, where there are ghosts in the world, people die like When the lights are off, the so-called ghosts don’t exist. It’s a completely scary act. Thinking of this, Yang Yong smiled: “Are you guys afraid?”

Seeing Yang Yong's question, the five people raised their chests, and they couldn't say they were afraid, "Young master, just tell me what to do. We will follow you!"
