Chapter 234: Deviating to Tiger Mountain

PreviousBack to directoryNext
As they were about to leave the city gate, Yunjing thought that one of his clothes was ruined after walking around in the sky last night, and then turned around and headed towards the Honglin County Government Office.

Scholars with a good reputation don't need to buy clothes, the state will provide them. He hasn't received his clothes for this year yet, he just needs two sets of summer clothes.

He doesn't have much money, so he has to save some money. Why don't he need white-collar clothes?

In the Dali Dynasty, it was possible for scholars to receive benefits across borders as long as they presented their student status. This is why many scholars did not worry about life problems when traveling far away. If they had no clothes to wear, they could go to the local government to get them. If they had no money, they could go there.

Come on, if you have no place to stay, you can go to the inn...

The process of receiving the clothes was simple. Yunjing presented his student status and was politely invited in by the people from the yamen. They registered, signed, stamped, and filed. After one set of procedures, he got two sets of clothes.

The scholar's uniform is different from the children's uniform. It has a white background and black edges. The suit includes a hat, undershirt, top, coat, trousers, hem, belt and shoes.

The fabric of the clothes is silk, which is very comfortable to wear. The hat is black, the kind Ning Caichen wears. There is a jade buckle on the belt, and the shoes are made of deerskin.

The value of this set has increased by ten taels of silver. The welfare of scholars is really enviable.

The scholar's uniform, with fluttering white clothes on the body, shows the elegance of a scholar.

When collecting the clothes, the manager in charge of distributing clothes said something extra and asked Yunjing: "Young master is on a study tour?"

In fact, this is nonsense. If it were not for study tours, it would be impossible for ordinary scholars to receive benefits across borders.

Yun Jing smiled and said: "Yes, after studying for more than ten years and gaining fame, I feel that my horizons are limited. It's time to take a walk and experience the great mountains and rivers of our Dali Dynasty."

The person who spoke to him was an old man in his fifties or sixties. He should be a scholar in his manner and manner. When Yun Jing said that he was on a study tour, a trace of reminiscence flashed in his eyes.

When he was young, he also had the experience of studying abroad. At that time, he was young and in his prime, but in a blink of an eye, he was already old. Time flies so fast. It is great to be young, and there is a lot to do in the world.

Back then, Xiaocui, Xiaohua, Xiaoli, Xiaofen, Xiaoyu..., how were you?

After briefly reminiscing about his youthful days, the old man thought for a moment and said, "Since the young master is studying abroad, where are you planning to go?"

"Why did you say this, sir?" Yun Jing asked in slight shock. Scholars can study freely and freely, but I have never heard that the government still has to control where scholars go.

The old man said quickly: "Young master, I misunderstood. I actually want to remind you to pay attention to safety during your study tour. Don't go to Yanshan County recently. It's not peaceful there."

It turned out that they had good intentions, and Yun Jing understood immediately.

Yunjing of Yanshan County knew that when he made a study tour plan, he learned that the place was mountainous and forested, with difficult roads and sparsely populated areas. The total population of the entire county was only about one million, making it a lower-class county.

But that place was rich in minerals, ferocious beasts, and rare medicinal materials in the mountains. It was a place he visited during his study tour.

"It's not peaceful over there? Sir, can you tell me in detail? If it's dangerous, I might as well take a detour and re-plan the study tour route." Yun Dingding nodded and asked.

The old man was probably free, and it was rare for someone to talk to him, so he said very chatty: "Young master, I don't know. More than a month ago, it was said that a strange beast appeared in Yanshan County. It was a red tiger with black stripes and a strong body.

Like a mountain, it is hard to be harmed by swords and can spit out the strong wind. When the news spread, many people in the martial arts community rushed out to kill him to show off their skills and make a name for themselves. However, the strange beast and the evil tiger were really terrifying. It was rumored that many martial arts people now

I went there, not only failed to hurt it, but actually became its prey. Not only did this not scare many martial arts people, but more people went there. Now people from all walks of life gathered there, fish and dragons mixed together, and strange beasts lurked.

Therefore, it’s best not to go to that place if you don’t need to, just in case something unexpected happens.”

"Is there such a thing?" Yunjing asked in surprise.

In this world, there are martial arts practitioners who come and go. Those who are born with martial arts can wield swords and swords with their hands. Naturally, strange beasts also exist. The turtles and Xiaobai raised by Yunjing are living examples. There are powerful people in this world.

As for the terrifying alien beasts, Yunjing also knew about them, but he had never seen any other alien beasts except Xiaobai and the others.

The black-striped red tiger, as strong as a mountain, was hard to be harmed by swords and could spit out the wind. After hearing the old man's description, Yun Jing suddenly remembered the tiger that Wang Tianba had collected on Wohu Mountain a few years ago.

A piece of animal skin.

Tigers as strong as mountains have appeared. Will there be the spiritual fluid of the Ming Dynasty, one of the treasures of heaven and earth, in that place?

The old man smiled and said: "Yanshan County has issued an official document, asking the superiors to send people to exterminate tigers to ensure peace in the territory. It seems to be true, but now that the border is not settled, I don't know if the superiors can free up manpower. In short, the young master has not

It’s better not to go to that place if necessary.”

"Thank you sir for reminding me, I will pay attention to it," Yunjing said with a cupped hand.

After chatting for a while, he said goodbye and left to continue his study tour.

Do you want to go to Yanshan County? That place is hundreds of miles away from Honglin County.

A red tiger with black stripes that is as strong as a mountain is rare. You might as well go and have a look. Now that you can fly, if there is danger, you can just sneak up into the sky.

Thinking about it in his mind, Yunjing decided not to change his route. If he bypassed Yanshan County, he would have to travel thousands of miles, and then he would not be able to reach the border when winter came and the border truce came.

In fact, if Yunjing had heard of such a thing before he had the ability to fly, he would have thought about it and probably would have taken a detour. After all, the strange beasts and tigers described by the old man were even difficult for ordinary innate masters to handle, so it would still be a bit dangerous for him to go.

Now, if you go and take a look, whether you can see such a tiger will probably depend on your luck. The tiger may have been eliminated before you even get to that place, or you may not encounter it even if you go there. After all, Yanshan County

It's still big...

After leaving Honglin County, Yunjing still went north along the official road, measuring the earth with his feet, and did not immediately fly to Yanshan County because of the strange beasts.

So far, Yunjing still hasn't met Tang Wan.

It was still morning, and the sun was getting higher. The sunlight shone on the rouge forest that stretched for dozens of miles. The area was like a blazing fire burning the mountains. The scenery was really rare.

The official road goes north along the edge of the Rouge Forest. While walking on the road, Yun Jingxin asked how this area has become private property. Although it can satisfy the eyes from a distance, it is still impossible to experience it in depth.

.

"Although I can go in and experience it silently, it is not the behavior of a gentleman to trespass on other people's territory. People must learn to control themselves and grow up from being a thief to stealing gold... Forget it, let's do it like this, life is not over.

It’s perfect, it’s okay to have some regrets, go and rest…”

In the end, Yunjing didn't go to Rouge Forest to experience it. He walked north along the official road, and Honglin County drifted away behind him.

"I have to live longer, live to be 1,800 years old, and survive these guys who are encircling the land. Then I will rely on my old age and go shopping everywhere to see who dares to stop me. Then the young people will not embarrass the elderly.

Yeah, I'll get poked in the spine. If you piss me off, I'll hit you. Hehe..."

Thinking of something irrelevant in my mind, Honglin County has been slowly and completely left behind by the cloud scenery, and the rouge forest has gradually become invisible.

The further north you go, the more sparsely populated you become. Until the afternoon, when Yunjing looked at the boundary markers on the roadside, he had left the Honglin County area, and he didn't encounter any villages or towns.

It looks like we have to spend the night in the wild again tonight.

Yun Jing didn't take it seriously. It was a wilderness, let alone a wilderness. Anyway, he had experienced this kind of thing not once or twice.

When the sun set over the west mountain, Yunjing had already left Honglin County for seventy or eighty miles and entered a territory called Qingyan County. There were no villages or towns around. He went directly to spend the night in the woods on the roadside.

After passing through Qingyan County, you will enter Yanshan County. Because Yanshan County is full of mountains and forests, most of the names of the towns there are related to rocks. Even the neighboring Qingyan County has been affected.

After choosing the place, Yunjing first went to the forest to release water to solve the problem of grain reincarnation, and then shot a ball of water from the air to wash his buttocks. After that, he prepared to set up a stove and find a small animal to beat teeth as a sacrifice.

As a result, when he raised his head, he realized that the weather was not kind to him. The sun was still shining brightly during the day, but dark clouds began to cover him in the evening.

Boom~!

There was faint thunder from the sky.

Silently speechless, Yun Jingxin said that it was impossible to stay overnight. He had no intention of becoming a drowned rat. Although he could use his mind power to hold up a cover to avoid the rain, he had to sleep. If he fell asleep, he would be wet like a dog, and it would be thunderous.

, he spent the night in the woods simply seeking death, and he had no intention of going up to the sky to see thunder at close range. He had not lived enough.

With a sweep of his mind, he discovered that there was a dry cave more than 3,000 meters away from where he stayed, and only a dozen meters away from the official road. There were still traces of people staying there, so Yunjing hurried there to spend the night.

It is not easy to travel long distances in this era, and many times you cannot encounter villages or towns. Therefore, people often stay overnight along the official road, which is not a solution.

In order to avoid finding dry firewood when it rained, Yunjing picked up firewood floating around him with his mind when he went to the cave. As he ran on the road, some firewood was "chasing" beside him. Anyway, he was quite happy.

Rumble~!

There was thunder in the sky and dark clouds covered the sky. When Yun Jing stepped into the cave, huge raindrops poured down like a torrent.

The rainstorm was like a curtain, and the whole world became hazy.

"The sound of wind, rain, and thunder can be heard in my ears. I am alone in the world, and sleeping in a cave is a novel experience..."

After glancing at the heavy rain outside, Yunjing retracted his gaze and looked at the cave.

The terrain here is higher, so there is no need to worry about rain coming in and being flooded. The cave is dry and very spacious, with a depth of 10 to 20 meters and a width of more than 10 meters. If you are homeless, you can settle here directly.

“It saves the effort of setting up a stove.”

Putting down the firewood and saluting, Yunjing started to light a fire to cook. He was going to have a barbecue tonight, so he wouldn't use stone pots or anything like that.

A small knife flew out of the book box and entered the rain curtain, and soon a fat and skinned rabbit flew over...

The power of mind is so useful.

"Why is it that the first thing I think of every time is eating rabbits? In fact, there are a lot of pheasants and wild ducks. Is it because rabbits are cute? By the way, I don't know what happened to the rabbit I gave to Xiao Zi in Xinlin County.

Have you given birth to a baby rabbit? It seems to be a male rabbit..."

When the fat rabbit was put on a wooden stick, smeared with seasonings and grilled, Yunjing was alone and bored, thinking about some random things in his head.

Outside the cave, it rained heavily and thunder roared loudly. The roasted rabbit in the cloud scene inside the cave was already fragrant.

Rabbit passed the exam quickly and tasted pretty good.

Yunjing took a bite of rabbit meat, and then suddenly realized a serious problem, that is, there is no bed, will it be difficult to sleep on the floor later?

"How about making a hammock out of some canes? Or just make a wooden bed? It's pretty simple anyway..."

While he was thinking about this, his ears twitched. In addition to thunder, there seemed to be other sounds in the heavy rain outside. He closed his eyes slightly, and when he looked over, he saw a charlatan carrying a big sword riding a horse in the rain.

Scratching his head, Yun Jing thought to himself that he might not have someone to hang out with tonight, so there was no reason why Jianghu would not come to this cave to take shelter from the rain, especially since there was still firelight here.

"The day after tomorrow, around forty years old, there won't be much of a problem."

After paying a little attention to the Jianghu guest who was walking in the rain, Yunjing stopped paying attention and continued to nibble on the rabbit. Hurry up and nibble. If someone comes and wants to share some, will you share it or not? After I finish eating, he has no reason to do it.

Let's break it up. I don't know him. It's not too much to eat alone...

The charlatans will definitely come to the cave, and Yunjing doesn't have enough room for a whole bed, so I'll just make do with it for one night.

As expected by Yun Jing, the Jianghu guest was walking in the rain. When he saw the light of fire in the cave, his eyes lit up and he galloped towards this direction.

However, what Yun Jing never expected was that the scabbard of the big sword that the man was carrying was made of metal. As a result, when he was still forty or fifty meters away from the cave, a bolt of lightning struck him in the head.

How fast is lightning?

The man had no time to dodge. He trembled all over and fell to the ground together with the horse he was sitting on. It was still a little smoking and was soon submerged by the heavy rain.

"This is so unlucky..." Yunjing's mouth twitched as he kept chewing the rabbit.

When the power of thought was extended, the guy was struck by lightning and his whole body was scorched black, and his horse died. However, the charlatan was not dead yet, he just fainted.

‘Heavenly thunder refining the body’ is the path of good luck for strong men.

Whispering in his heart, Yun Jing thought for a moment, and rushed out of the cave in a flash. He used his mind power to avoid the rain, and brought the still alive Jianghu guest into the cave. The horse was hopeless...
