Fengcheng is located on Longwei Mountain at the southern end of Erhai Lake. On the side facing Erhai Lake, there are steep cliffs that are difficult to climb. On the south-facing side, the mountains become gentle and turn into the plains of Ernan. The terrain is undulating, with lush forests and dense rivers and lakes.
Fengcheng is located on Longwei Mountain at the southern end of Erhai Lake. On the side facing Erhai Lake, there are steep cliffs that are difficult to climb. On the south-facing side, the mountains become gentle and turn into the plains of Ernan. The terrain is undulating, with lush forests and dense rivers and lakes.
Fengcheng is built along the mountain. It faces north and south, facing a ten-foot-wide moat. It is backed by Longwei Peak, the main peak of Longwei Mountain. Its east and west sides are like arm guards extending from the main bee. The rocks are dangerous and difficult to climb.
, forming a natural barrier. Only the south wall was built, and even the parapet wall was eight feet high. It was made of mud and stone. If the heavy iron arrows fired from the powerful crossbow machine were at a suitable distance and multiple arrows hit the same part in succession, they would definitely penetrate the wall and collapse it.
, make a gap.
Fortunately, there is an urn city outside the south city wall. If another city wall is built, then another urn city gate will be opened on one side of the city gate. It will become two gates that are not directly connected. After entering, you have to turn around. When outsiders enter the city, they can first let people into the urn city for interrogation and combat.
At this time, you can also let the enemy enter the urn city, block the two gates, and catch turtles in the urn.
Fengcheng is built with mountains as walls and water as trenches. It is high on the inside and low on the outside. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Therefore, it has become a battleground for the military strategists in the Erhai District. Due to the terrain, the mountain city rises layer by layer and can be roughly divided into
There are five floors of terraces, connected to the whole city by ramps. There are stone steps on both sides of the ramps going up. The bottom floor of the city gate is the most spacious, with street houses. The highest floor is the royal castle, which is the palace of Erhai King Tong Mubai. Inside the city
There are 3,200 Bai households and a population of 30,000. It is the largest city in Erhai District.
The reason why Fengcheng got its name is because the Cangshan Mountains that stretch for hundreds of miles block the airflow. The prevailing westerly winds in winter and spring blow to Fengcheng through the narrow valley between Xieyang Peak of Cangshan Mountains and Gaolao Mountains, forming a windy city all year round.
The wind blows from the northwest, so the houses in Fengcheng are beautifully built with their backs to the wind. The wind in Fengcheng does not carry dust and sand, and combined with the influence of Erhai Lake, the air is fresh and cool.
The team of Longying and others poured from the mountainous area into the hilly plains of Ernan. The Fengcheng stood in front of it, and it really had the grandeur of a majestic pass. There were camps everywhere outside the city. It was obvious that the Bai people of Erxi who were escaping from the war settled here temporarily.
.
There was a forest of tents about two miles southeast of Fengcheng. Under the banner of Shi Langzhao, it showed that Ze Gang and others had not entered the city, which made the three of them feel strange.
Ze Gang came after hearing the report and stopped them and said: "We want to help but we don't have the manpower because of Tong Mubai's attitude. Let's go to our camp first and then make a long-term plan."
The three of them felt a sudden shock in their hearts, so they had no choice but to follow Ze Gang to Shi Langren's military camp.
Ze Gang clenched his fists and said, "I knew before that King Erhai was a confused and fatuous man who indulged in alcohol and sex. Now I understand that not only is he timid and fearful, but he is also a bastard who doesn't even know he's about to die."
The four of them were talking on the bank of a small river next to the camp, while the mule trains loaded with goods were still filing into the camp.
Long Ying said calmly: "What happened?"
Ze Gang said: "I first sent people to Fengcheng to report the good news to Tong Mubai, tell him about the great victory, send them food and weapons, and express my willingness to help them defend Fengcheng. Unexpectedly, he refused, saying that he did not want to be involved.
In the war between Shi Langzhao and Zong Mizhi, we must strictly maintain neutrality."
Feng Guoting frowned and said, "Don't he know that Zong Mi Zhi has launched a war against them?"
Ze Gang said angrily: "This turtle with its shrunken head doesn't care about the life and death of the Erxi people at all. It just shuts the door and proclaims itself king. Look! All the Erxi people who fled have been turned away from the city, and many of them have moved to other places.
They fled from Yaozhou or Dianchi Lake, and more than 10,000 people left within two days."
Wan Renyu said in shock: "Then he will not accept the Bai Nu we rescued."
Ze Gang said: "The more women the better, but how can we bear to send them into the Windy City where the city is about to be destroyed?"
Long Ying said: "It depends on their own wishes! Let them understand the current situation first and let them decide for themselves. If they are willing to follow you back to Shari Province, will you take good care of them?"
Ze Gang's expression softened slightly and he said: "Women are precious assets, especially young women. If they are willing to obey us, we will treat them well."
Wan Renyu said: "Have you mentioned us to Tong Mubai?"
Ze Gang said with lingering anger: "No. There is no chance at all. I asked for a meeting three times, hoping to tell my interests face to face, but I was rejected every time."
Feng Guoting asked: "What are your plans now?"
Ze Gang said: "We have to go back to Shari Prefecture first. No matter how hard it is to achieve anything in Fengcheng, why don't we go back to Shari Prefecture together?"
Long Ying said: "We have to stay here to see the situation. How can we sneak into the city?"
Ze Gangjin: "As long as you show your name as a Han, there will be no problem entering the city. Tong Mubai will not refuse Han people. Other Bai people who enter the city to do business must hold the pass issued by him."
Then he said disappointedly: "Will the Dragon God Witch and the two eldest brothers fight side by side with us again?"
Long Ying said: "Of course, as long as Zong Mi Zhi is not killed, we will not leave Erhai. When are you going to set off?"
Ze Gang said: "We have made all preparations and sent people to explore the road. The enemy can appear at any moment. Fengcheng has become the most dangerous area and it is not suitable to stay for a long time, so we will set off tomorrow morning; but there are too many grains.
We can only take away part of it."
Wan Renyu looked around at the surrounding forests of Kono and said: "We can find a dense forest nearby and bury the things that cannot be taken away in the mud in the dense forest. The bottom layer should be buried very deep for future use."
Ze Gang said happily: "It's a good idea, but only the things in the boxes can be buried in the soil. Let's deal with the more than 300 boxes donated by the Dian Gang in this way. Maybe one day, we can use them
Attack and break the enemy-occupied Windy City."
He added: "As for the food supplies, half of them can be distributed to the refugees outside the city. What do you think?"
Wan Renyu said happily: "You are a kind-hearted person. For this reason alone, we are willing to sacrifice our lives for you."
Long Ying said: "It will be dark in two hours. We don't have much time. Let's take action immediately."
Early the next morning, Shi Lang's soldiers broke camp and set out. Long Ying and three others accompanied them for a short distance. There were more than 4,000 refugees who asked permission to accompany them back to Shari Prefecture.
Shi Langzhao had always had a good relationship with the Bai people in Erxi and had close business contacts. Taking refuge in Sheli Prefecture was certainly better than being exposed to the cold wind outside Fengcheng.
More than 700 young women, except for a small number who found relatives and friends in the camps outside Fengcheng, all voluntarily went to Shari Prefecture. Although the cloud of war still enveloped the entire Erhai area, under the protection of the brave and skilled Shi Langren, they could still get the best results for the time being.
Precious security.
Shi Langzhao's soldiers were still in the atmosphere after a great victory, and knew that the three men would be on their side in the future war. Their emotions were high and their morale was high.
After winding for five miles, the team composed of soldiers, mule carts and Erhai refugees turned west and entered the Erxi Plain, heading towards Sheli Prefecture. After crossing the disaster site of Erxi Ji, the three Longying people said goodbye to Ze Gang and led
Xiaowan went to the western edge of the plain, close to Cangshan Mountain, where the eyebrows and the crescent moon are buried.
"The vast expanse of water opens up the sky mirror, and the mountain scenery surrounds the green screen at all times."
Cangshan Mountain is lined up like a screen, verdant and verdant, stretching for hundreds of miles to the west of Erhai Lake. It has nineteen peaks standing on the wall, and between each two peaks there is a stream flowing eastwards.
The Erhai River is fed by the Miju River and the Mici River in the north, merges with the Boluo River in the southeast, and the eighteen streams in Cangshan Mountain in the west. It has rich water resources. It then flows out of the Erhai River in the west, merges with the Yang River, and flows into the dangerous and majestic Lancang River rushing from the plateau.
.
Erhai Cangshan Mountain demarcates the most fertile fertile plain in the Erhai District. It has been a blessed land where the Erhai people, generally known as the Bai ethnic group, have lived since ancient times. Today, their right to live here is finally threatened without precedent.
The peaks of Cangshan Mountain are covered with snow all year round and are covered with silver. The scenery is magnificent. Floating clouds are like ribbons, gathering halfway up the mountain. They are ever-changing and the weather is ever-changing, rising and falling. The mountainous area is densely covered with moraine lakes. Among them, the eagle's nest is located on the top of the peak.
The wind passes through the garden and the place where the beloved eagle was born is already fascinating to hear.
Four people and three cavalry galloped wildly in this must-have place for hegemony, so as to vent the anger caused by this beautiful and fertile land.
Xiao Wan did not know how to ride a horse, but because she was in a dangerous place, Feng Guoting felt the need to protect her personally.
The condor returns to its hometown and flies high in the sky, chirping from time to time.
A large group of wild horses appeared half a mile away, seemingly trying to compete with Xue'er and others in speed, running in the same direction. Xue'er's three horses became excited and couldn't help but raise their heads and neigh.
The high emotions of the eagles and horses particularly contrasted with their difficult to resolve heavy hearts.
The three riders galloped along the river. Feng Guoting first slowed down his riding speed and cast his affectionate eyes on the river. He said in a deep voice: "The Cangshan Mountains have clear valleys, with nineteen peaks and eighteen streams. The streams are cool and clear, and among the many streams
, this clear blue stream is the most spotless, and the section before it leaves the mountain is the most beautiful. The clear stream pours down from the hanging rock several feet high, and pours into three connected sinking pools. The water and stone interact with each other, and the water and light become more floating.
The color of the stone becomes more beautiful.”
Wan Renyu came to them and asked: "Where is Meiyue's tomb? The valley ahead is clearly visible, but there is no mark on the tomb."
Xiaowan replied: "The tomb of the Witch Master is a big secret. Anyone who builds her tomb must swear an oath never to reveal it, so only a few people know about it. The tomb is under the river bed of the valley before Qingbi River comes out of the mountain.
The witch master’s suicide note contained her body in a copper coffin and was buried in the river soil under the water without any markings. It was only marked with a stone carved on the bank.”
Long Ying said: "Xiaowan just hides here."
Xiao Wan looked at Long Ying who was following the horse from the other side, nodded and said: "That's right, Xiao Wan never thought that the enemy would not even let go of such a far place. They lined up in a row to search from the east.
Come here, Xiaowan has no way to escape. At that time, I regretted it terribly. I regretted that I didn't go farther away to Cangshan Mountain. But now I am glad that I was caught."
Feng Guoting asked: "How many are there?"
Xiaowan said: "I was so flustered at the time that I didn't see clearly, but there should be at least 500 to 600 people."
Wan Renyu asked: "Did they violate you?"
Xiao Wan said in shock: "The witch master protected me, they just arrested me."
Wan Renyu said: "Looking at it this way, the enemy's military regulations are very strict, and he does have the courage of a hegemon."
The closer Long Ying looked at the front, the more he felt the majestic Cangshan Mountain. The dense vegetation on the mountain was fascinating. He said: "Not only because of the strict military regulations, but also because this group of personnel has a special mission of Zong Mi Zhi, which is to find the eyebrows and buried bones."
Here, her remains are taken out, so that Zong Mi Zhi can use this method to break the oath of Mei Yue to "preserve all future lives"."
Feng Guoting was shocked and asked: "What should we do?"
Long Ying said: "Just seeing that Mei Yue's riverbed tomb is still safe and sound, we know that Zong Mi Zhi still cannot decipher Mei Yue's magic power and cannot detect the precise location of Mei Yue's burial. We only know that it is at the foot of Cangshan Mountain.
"
Wan Renyu said: "How can Zong Mi Zhi know this?"
Long Ying said: "If we admit the existence of reincarnation, we have to admit the existence of ghosts. There should be a boundary between life and death. All witches and wizards with psychic abilities can pass through it since ancient times.
He has developed various secret techniques to communicate with ghosts and gods, and even uses the power of ghosts and gods to know things that are impossible to know under normal circumstances. Therefore, he has incredible magical powers that we cannot understand. Meiyue must have worked hard in this area before passing away.
After a lot of effort, even though Guzong Mi Zhi has the power to communicate with the gods, he still cannot break through the ghosts and gods and break the oath that Mei Yue made during his lifetime."
Wan Renyu smiled bitterly and said: "The more you talk about it, the more mysterious it becomes."
Long Ying said: "Know yourself and the enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger. We must master the secret wisdom of the sect in order to deal with him."
Xiaowan shouted: "We're here!"
When the wind passes through the courtyard, the horse reins in and stops.
The condor screamed loudly in the sky, and after a sharp turn, it flew towards Cangshan Mountain and disappeared into the jade-white smoke clouds that stretched for more than ten miles.
The four of them looked away and dismounted from their horses.
Xiaowan said happily: "Go home soon!"
"Xie Xie'er" is the name Mei Yue gave to the divine eagle back then. Feng Guoting was afraid of being hurt by the name, so he always abandoned it.
The three of them still had no chance to answer her, and it was Xueer's turn to jump up and down and scream.
Long Ying took off Xue'er's saddle, shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "Our horse is spoiled."
Wan Renyu imitated him and unsaddled his beloved horse, and said happily: "They have worked hard and achieved great results, so they can live a happy life."
Feng Guoting also released the load on his mount and said: "This plain is vast and fertile. It is probably the most beautiful wilderness in the world. It is full of interesting things. We are tired of the war and have no happiness to bear, so let them enjoy the happiness on our behalf. Think about it.
It fills you with a feeling of happiness and joy.”
After Longying made love with Xue'er, he patted its horse's butt vigorously. Xue'er neighed happily, led the two horse brothers, and chased after the wild horses that had gone far away.
Xiaowan said worriedly: "Aren't you afraid of them fighting?"
Feng Guoting said: "They are the top masters among horses. Other horses can only surrender." Seeing Long Ying carrying Jie Tian Bang on his shoulders, he said: "Why don't you find a place to hide it?
How do you enter the city with a guy like this?"
Xiao Wan said: "There is a good place to hide things in the mountain. After worshiping the witch master, Xiao Wan will lead the way."
She often goes deep into the mountainous areas to collect herbs, so she knows the conditions inside the mountains.
Feng Guoting took out the jade needle from his arms and put it into Xiaowan's hand. Xiaowan said in shock: "Brother Ting, why did you give it to me?"
Feng Guoting patted her shoulder and said, "I'll send you to the mountains later and visit old friends on the way. Xiaowan will stay there for a while. After we resolve the matter in Fengcheng, we will come back to pick you up."
To the surprise of the three of them, Xiaowan did not act like a daughter, and nodded: "Xiaowan understands, brother Ting can rest assured to handle your men's affairs. If anything happens to brother Ting, Xiaowan will die for brother Ting."
Son."
Long Ying said: "This will never happen. If Xiaowan doesn't believe in us, he should believe in the witch master."
Xiaowan lowered his head and said: "Zong Mi Zhi is terrible!"
Wan Renyu said: "They have the Ghost Lord, but we have the Dragon God Witch. No matter how powerful Ren Zong Mi Zhi's magic power is, there are always clues to follow, but our Dragon God Witch is something Zong Mi Zhi will never understand, and it is also
The most important part in the inter-life battle between the witch master and Zong Mi Zhi. It is destined that we stand by the river today."
Although Xiaowan knew from Feng Guoting that Mei Yue might have been reincarnated, she still heard it vaguely. However, because the words Long Ying and Wan Renyu said revealed a confidence so strong that no one could shake it, she was affected by it.
Infection, complexion becomes smooth.
Longying said to Xiaowan: "Take good care of it, it's time to get married!"
After worshiping the crescent moon on the river bank, Feng Guoting sent Xiao Wan into the mountains. Since the Ying tribe has always rejected outsiders, Long Ying and Wan Renyu followed them into the mountainous area without going any further. They were responsible for hiding Jie Tianhong and Ma An in a secret place.
at.
The two sat down next to a small lake, waiting for the wind to come back. The lake in Cangshan Mountain was indeed well-deserved. The water in the whole pool was crystal clear and dazzling. The pool was surrounded by butterfly trees, and the main trunk of one of the old trees slanted over the pool.
, attracting a large group of unknown tiny birds, leaping and singing among the branches, not afraid of them at all.
Wan Renyu said: "What's the next step?"
Long Ying said: "Let's go back and guard Fengcheng."
Wan Renyu lost his voice and said: "Tong Mubai is so bad, why does the master have his own soldiers? How can he defend it?"
Long Ying said: "You have to defend even if you can't defend it. This is called doing it knowing that it cannot be done, because there is no second choice. Xi Fan Meiyue has already made arrangements for this."
Wan Renyu smiled bitterly and said: "This is another kind of resignation."
Long Ying said: "I have confidence that Young Master will be able to find Mei Yue, and we can defeat Zong Mi Zhi. This kind of confidence is blind, unreasonable, and runs counter to the development of the situation at hand."
Feng Guoting came back, and made a sign from a distance that everything was okay. The two of them did not say anything, and used their footwork to leave the mountainous area and rush towards Fengcheng at full speed.
