The stone mountain is majestic and majestic, but not crude, occupying most of the area in sight.
However, this place is completely flat, and there is not even a single ups and downs as far as the eye can see. This is not only the only ups and downs on the earth, but also the only mountain.
This mountain is neither a dirt mountain nor a low mountain. It is like a gray-white boulder. As high as it is, it is naturally far inferior to those plateau mountains and overlapping mountains. But it rises straight from the ground and does not stand tall.
On the plateau, you are not standing on any other mountain. It is clearly just an independent peak on the flat ground. It is considered very high. If it is a foggy day, the top of the mountain may be able to penetrate the clouds and mist.
The mountain is not smooth, but also very steep. Except for some ancient pines rooted in the cracks of the rocks, there are almost no plants on it. On this vast plain, it is both abrupt and the finishing touch, like the center of this world.
The center gives people a strong visual shock.
Even if you see such a mountain elsewhere, you will be amazed by it, let alone here.
Not to mention it grew overnight.
"..."
Anyway, the swordsman's eyes were full of shock.
When Taoists saw it, they couldn't help but be amazed.
Pingzhou Mountain God has put his heart into it.
"Go over and have a look."
"good!"
The group of people immediately stood up, packed their bags, and walked towards the towering stone mountain ahead.
I originally walked quite a distance yesterday, but when I woke up this morning, I saw that the mountain seemed to be in front of me, occupying a large part of my sight. There was an almost oppressive feeling.
Looking from a distance, I can only feel the majestic momentum.
When I got closer, I realized that it was too steep to climb.
After walking around the mountain, you realize how vast the area is.
Such a mountain can really become a famous mountain and grand scenery anywhere, but it was borrowed from the depths of the mountains hundreds of miles away from Pingzhou by a Taoist letter to Guijun, a place where there is no big mountain in Hezhou.
The swordsman was shocked, and so was the Taoist.
However, after seeing off for thousands of miles, we must finally say goodbye. At this time, the matter in Xueyuan is over, and it is time for them to say goodbye.
"Master Shu."
Song You turned around and said to the swordsman: "This is already the edge of Hezhou. If you go to Guangzhou, you have to go south and turn back. Empress Sanhua and I want to continue going north, so we should say goodbye at the foot of this mountain."
"good!"
The swordsman was also very straightforward and clasped fists with him: "I wish you a safe journey north, sir!"
It would be a good thing to say goodbye here.
"I also hope that my marriage search will go well and that I will find my own swordsmanship as soon as possible. Empress Sanhua and I will pay attention to your legend in the world." Song You said, "Thank you for sending me."
"I hope we can meet again if we have the chance."
"Shu, we'll meet again~"
This journey throughout Hezhou, more than a thousand miles, was not simple, whether it was the companionship and escort of the swordsman or the guidance of the Taoist. The experience of conquering demons and demons all the way was also unusual, but neither the two of them nor the Sanhua Empress had the same experience.
Say a few words of thanks or coyness, bow to each other, and say goodbye.
"thorough!"
The swordsman got on his horse and walked back the way he came.
There was only one man, one horse and one cat left on the edge of the mountain. The horses seemed to have no emotions and lowered their heads to eat grass. The cat watched the man and the horse leave, while the Taoist withdrew his gaze and looked up at the mountain.
"call……"
I saw the Taoist blowing a breath towards the mountain.
"Wow..."
The gravel rolled down the mountain, and a protruding rock turned into a stone tablet, which was born in the mountain.
There is a line written on the stone tablet:
In February of the sixth year of Mingde, Shu Yifan and the black horse borrowed a horse from the Pingzhou Mountain God to suppress the demon.
"Let's go."
The Taoist withdrew his gaze and turned around to leave.
But as if they had expected it, the people of Angelica County mustered up the courage to walk into Heyuan again. The old merchants passed by again and were shocked to see this sudden but steep and majestic mountain. They also seemed to have expected what would happen in the future.
Over the past hundred years, literati and poets have come here and written poems and articles after seeing the mountain.
It seems that I have predicted the popularity of this place in the future.
Respecting mountains as gods is a worldly tradition, let alone such a unique sacred mountain.
But the Taoist has gone far.
The bay-red horse followed silently, while the calico cat stopped where it was, looking at the stone tablet a few more times. After recognizing the words clearly, it turned around and trotted after it.
The group of people headed north.
…
The clerk surnamed Jin has been waiting at the North Gate for nearly two months.
For nearly two months, he often stood on the top of the city every day and looked at the north for a long time, no matter day or night.
After all, it is far away. Even if the terrain is flat and with the help of the height of the city, the scene in the snowfield cannot be seen from a distance, but the sky over there can be seen.
The Hansu epidemic had not been completely controlled until a few days ago. Even if I had the courage to go and have a look, I could not leave the city at will. Instead, a team came from other places to donate medicine, as well as doctors. It is said that they heard about Cai Cai elsewhere.
They came spontaneously after the miracle doctor's deeds. They lived in the city, and sometimes went out of the city to visit villages in various places to see doctors and donate medicine. Some villages were not far from the snowy fields, and you could hear about the trends in the snowy fields from their mouths.
For the past ten days, there had been a storm there. At night, you could occasionally see flashes of light, and there seemed to be thunder, but it was too far away and you couldn't hear the thunder anymore.
More than ten days later, people who came back from the city to donate medicine said that the snow in the snowfield was melting, snow was falling, and thunder was often raging, which was very magical.
After hearing the news, even the nobles in the city couldn't help but go to this city wall and look to the north. They just thought that there were gods descending to the lower realm to slay demons in the snowy fields.
The Hansu people have suffered greatly from this, so they naturally hope that this time they can completely wipe out the snowfield demons.
However, this has happened several times and no one is sure.
Until the first month passes and February comes.
The haze in the sky over that area had obviously dispersed, and the person who had gone to donate the medicine came back and said that the blizzard that had always lingered on the snowfield had also subsided, and even the snow was melting.
Later, Daxia Shu, who went to the snowfield with his husband, arrived at the city, asked for some dry food, and then hurriedly rode away without knowing where he was going. It seems that it was then that he heard that the snowstorm in the snowfield had completely subsided, and the sky above
The haze has completely dissipated, the snow is getting thinner day by day, and snow water is flowing out of the snowfield.
All the officials and people in the city were overjoyed.
The junior official named Jin was naturally overjoyed, but amid his great joy, he was also a bit shocked.
Late February.
The Hansu epidemic was eradicated and the city gates were opened again.
Although there are still few people coming in and out, those who survived in the city have also walked out of their homes.
I finally saw someone on the street.
People expressed condolences to each other and talked with each other with emotion, as if they had gone through a catastrophe together, and there was an inexplicable emotion.
Naturally, no one has forgotten the spiritual rain last winter, no one has forgotten the social gods who entrusted them with dreams, and no one has forgotten the Taoists and monks who walked into the sick house to relieve the sufferings of the patients.
The most crowded place on that day was the temple in the city.
The most incense-filled thing is not the gods and Buddhas in the main hall, but the small temple about half a person tall on the left side of the door. In front of the temple, there are pieces of clay, filled with grass incense, and fireworks like clouds.
However, coincidentally, on the night when the city gate was opened, the people of Hansu County all had a dream at the same time. In the dream, it was still the social god who came to remind the people in the city to go out and bathe in the rain.
Luo Yinghua is a kind old woman, but she is taller than in the last dream.
The God of Society told them that on the first day of the first lunar month of this year, an immortal stepped into the snowfield. With the help of Thunder God, he spent seven, seven and forty-nine days to suppress the demon king of Heyuan, and the Heyuan would return to peace in the future.
When people woke up, they were naturally shocked.
It was still early in the morning, and the city was abuzz with excitement. It was clear that there were not many people left, but the streets and alleys were filled with voices of support and discussion.
I want to believe it, but I have concerns.
I want to investigate, but I dare not go there.
It was the same in the county government, and there was a lot of discussion.
Some people said that they should send someone to take a look, some wanted to wait a little longer, some had full trust in Tutu Po, and some were more cautious. Finally, they decided to send someone to take a look, but for many years, the Demon King of the Snowfield has been in Hansu officials and people.
The image between them is already extremely terrifying, who dares to lead the team there?
The minor official surnamed Jin was originally just an insignificant subordinate in the city, with a very low status. Because of the great epidemic, many minor officials in the city died, and his elder brother got sick because he took over the sick house.
There was a place to talk in the county government. After hearing the entanglements and hesitations of the nobles, I thought for a moment, gritted my teeth, and then took the initiative to stand up.
"Sir, I am willing to go!"
"Would you like to go?"
"willing!"
"Okay! Great! I'll let you take the people there. When we come back to investigate, I will remember you for your great contribution!"
"Thank you, sir!"
The clerk then agreed.
Now that he has the person to lead the team, it may be difficult for him to replace other subordinates, but he also feels that it is easy to find.
Although my brother recovered, he was not in good health after recovery. He had been recuperating at home and it was inconvenient to go there. However, there were also other subordinates in the sick camp at the time, some of whom were mildly ill and had just arrived on the first day of the red eye.
He was brought under control and has now been restored to his original position. These people all know what kind of person that gentleman and master are. If you go and tell them clearly, someone will probably be willing to go with you.
As expected, the next day, the clerk took a few people and a donkey and left the city to the north.
In half a day, we arrived at the snowfield.
Just like the rumors, the haze has long disappeared from the snowfield at this time, the snowstorm has stopped, the snow on the ground has melted, green grass has grown, bathed in the sun, and it is like a dream.
Those temples still stand, like a line, indicating that a great demon king was once imprisoned here.
Everyone looked at each other in disbelief, and under the urging of the clerk, they dared to cross the temple and walk into the snowy field.
Everything is business as usual, but it's scary.
The group of people walked forward all the way.
As expected, the ice and snow were no longer visible at all. They melted back into water and filled the ravines and rivers on the roadside. Not only did the grass emerge from the soil, but some seemingly dead trees also sprouted. If not for all the ice and snow,
The exposed houses are empty, with bones often there, and there is no one on the road. It even makes people feel that this is not a snowfield, but just an ordinary place in Guijun.
Until we go a little deeper...
Among the huge carcasses of birds and animals on the roadside, some have rotted, some have only bones, and some have just begun to rot. Some are still intact, while others have been beaten to tatters. All of this shows that this place
There have been many wars that shocked the hearts of mortals.
The group of people looked at it with fear.
Those who were a little less courageous asked to go back before they had gone very far, but the young official surnamed Jin mustered up the courage to continue forward, and everyone went deeper and deeper.
However, not long after, they were shocked again.
A mountain appeared in the distant sky.
Gui County, which had no hills, actually had a mountain.
It was vague at first, but as everyone got closer, his true appearance was slowly revealed. The entire process of getting closer was also a process in which everyone was gradually shocked.
Until a group of people came to it.
This is a huge mountain that many people in Hezhou have never seen before. People seem so small in front of it.
The shock in everyone's hearts at this moment is beyond words.
It was as if an ancient myth had come before us.
…
It’s the last day of the month and I’m asking for monthly passes!
