Beiting Mountain is about seventy miles away from the southern border of Dongbo Kingdom. It is the only way to go south from Dongbo to Dayu.
There is a canyon in the middle of Beiting Mountain, which is more than forty miles long from north to south. The narrowest part is about one mile, and the widest part is more than ten miles.
The narrow place can be called a canyon, but the wide place is more like a gaping hole.
This canyon divides Beiting Mountain into two parts. Dongbo locals call the mountains on both sides Northeast Ting Mountain and Northwest Ting Mountain.
This mountain got its name because it is said that there is a pavilion for cultivating immortals at the highest point of the mountain.
It was in this pavilion that an immortal attained enlightenment and ascended to heaven.
Now even that pavilion can't be found, and there is no trace of it. But you can't say it doesn't exist. If you say it doesn't exist, the locals will get angry with you.
Lin Ye and the others pretended to be a straw caravan and entered Dongbo. The procedures were complete and generous. They gave some benefits to the defenders on the Dongbo side and the release was particularly smooth.
It is said that beauties are very popular in Dongbo. If you come from Dayu, many restaurants and inns will offer discounts or even free admission.
Scholars in Dongbo are more yearning for Dayu. In their view, Dayu is a holy place of etiquette and culture.
There is a cemetery at the foot of Tingshan Mountain in the northeast, where the soldiers of the Cowardly Army who died in the battle are buried.
Here, Lin Ye and the others are bound to come.
They hired a local young man as their guide named Salang.
When mentioning the war that year, Salang had endless topics to talk about. He said that he was from a nearby village. The mountain fire burned for six or seven days, so this section of Northeast Tingshan Mountain still looks bare.
The cemetery is at the foot of the mountain and was built on a large scale, but Salang said that when they were buried in it, it was impossible to tell which one was Dayu's soldier and which one was Lou Fan's.
The Loufan people attacked fiercely for a long time and suffered heavy losses, and then they had the vicious intention of burning the mountain.
Therefore, many of the corpses left on the mountain at that time were Lou Fan soldiers, and most of them were burned into charred corpses, making it impossible to tell who was who.
Lin Ye asked Salang if General Liu Jigong had been found.
Salang said: "When my father went up the mountain to transport the body, he said he had seen the general's body."
Lin Ye's eyes immediately opened wider.
Salang said: "My father said that they would not dare to go up the mountain until the mountain fire burned away the trees and grass, and waited for another two days."
"From a high place, I saw a flagpole that had been burned until only half of it was left. There was a body under the flagpole, and the iron armor was burned and deformed."
Salang pointed: "Look over there."
In the middle of the cemetery, there is a large tombstone, and there is a stone statue in front of the tombstone.
Lin Ye walked to the stone statue and couldn't calm down for a long time.
What a majestic general that was, standing on the stone platform with his sword in hand, facing south, the direction of his home.
Lin Ye took off his backpack, knelt in front of the tombstone, lit some incense, and then took out a jar of wine.
"This is not the wine at home. There is no wine at home. My mother-in-law said I was sorry for you. She shouldn't have controlled you so strictly at that time."
As he spoke, he uncorked the wine and poured it in front of the tombstone.
"This is the wine brewed by Uncle Blind Man. It is the best pot. Uncle Blind Man said that if I come to Beiting Mountain to visit the general in the future, remember to bring the wine with me."
Xue Linyuan and the others did not come forward, but watched from a distance, but everyone's heart was hurting.
"My mother-in-law asked me before she left..."
Lin Ye spilled the wine into the ground, took out the paper money, and put it aside without lighting it.
"She asked me, you died in the battle in Dongbo, can your soul return home?"
"I said yes, but actually I don't know if it is possible, but I thought, if she misses you so much and you miss her so much, what about Wanli?"
Lin Ye kowtowed, once, twice, three times, countless times.
"My mother-in-law also said that she believed you could go back, and you would cross mountains and seas across mountains and rivers. My mother-in-law said that you left ten years ago, but you would definitely wait for her." "My mother-in-law said that she was afraid...
.I’m afraid that the underworld of Dongbo is not the same as that of Dayu, and she’s afraid that she won’t be able to find you.”
Lin Ye kowtowed until his forehead became red and swollen.
"By the way, I forgot to mention, I am the youngest."
Lin Ye stood up and knelt down again.
"I kowtowed to you just now, and now I kowtow to you on behalf of my brothers."
Keep knocking.
Chu Danrong couldn't help but want to go over and help Lin Ye up. Lin Ye knocked too much, and the ground was not soft.
How could there be soft soil in a place like the foot of the mountain? There were rocks in the soil, so soon Lin Ye saw blood on his forehead.
Xue Linyuan grabbed Chu Danrong and shook his head.
Xue Linyuan said: "He did not come alone."
Lin Ye kowtowed while talking, and his voice became hoarse.
"My mother-in-law always talks about you in the dead of night. She is obviously so old, but she is still shy when mentioning you in front of others."
"She thought I was asleep, but she always pretended to be asleep. The only way she endured the pain was to talk to you."
When Lin Ye said this, he couldn't stop crying.
How many nights did my mother-in-law curl up in pain, but she didn't want Lin Ye to know, so she tried not to scream.
But it was too hard for her to endure, so she talked to her husband and talked about their past, from acquaintance to marriage to having children.
Lin Ye kowtowed many times, then took off the big umbrella behind his back and leaned the umbrella against the tombstone.
Just like this, my mother-in-law can sit next to the general and lean on his shoulder.
"At that time, I asked my mother-in-law if I wanted to take you to Dongbo to have a look. My mother-in-law said I couldn't go. If I did, I wouldn't be able to come back."
Lin Ye lit the paper money on fire.
"My mother-in-law said that she can't come to see you because she knows that you are the father, not just the father of your four children. You are the general, and the Cowardly Army are all your children."
"My mother-in-law will go look for her. She will help every one she can."
Lin Ye raised his hand to wipe away his tears.
"I came to see you for her, and I came to see you for the brothers."
Lin Ye looked at the black umbrella: "I still have to take the umbrella with me. When... the matter is finished, I will send the umbrella back."
Everyone was waiting in the distance, and no one came to disturb him for more than an hour.
Xue Linyuan looked at the sky, then he walked over and patted Lin Ye on the shoulder: "We still have to go."
Lin Ye looked at the black umbrella nestled against the tombstone and shook his head: "You guys go back, I'll go back tomorrow morning."
"Let them... stay a little longer," he said.
Xue Linyuan's heart tightened.
He was silent for a moment and then nodded: "Okay."
Salang took them back to live in the village. It must be said that this young man is a qualified and enthusiastic guide.
They discussed it, and Chu Danrong and Chu Dingcong stayed together to accompany Lin Ye from a distance.
The others went back to the village to rest. After all, everyone was very tired after the long journey.
Lin Ye sat cross-legged under the stone statue, closed his eyes and rested, breathing continuously through his pores.
The Chu brothers glanced at Lin Ye from time to time, and the two talked in low voices. They both felt that Lin Ye seemed to be carrying more than just this.
But that's already heavy enough.
Around midnight, Lin Ye opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.
Although Beiting Mountain is still deserted, the air is far better than that in Yunzhou City. After taking a breath, his spirit recovered faster.
He looked at the Chu brothers, thought for a moment and then walked over.
"Two brothers."
Lin Ye said: "I'm a little hungry. Can you go back and help me find some food? Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere. I'm just waiting here."
Chu Danrong said: "I will go back and let him stay here with you."
Lin Ye said: "A place like this may be dangerous. I don't worry about you being separated."
Chu Danrong said: "Don't do this. Mr. Xue said that you have a good brain and you have read the map. You don't know when you will dump us."
Lin Ye: "I have nothing to gain, so why should I leave you?"
Chu Dingcong said: "Because you think someone is going to kill you, if you stay with us, you may put us in danger."
Lin Ye sighed in his heart.
These two are easy to deceive, but Xue Linyuan is really hard to deceive.
He really wanted to leave alone, because he was also sure that Xie Yelan's people had not been left behind at all.
The reason why he directly found the Chu brothers in that inn was because he was worried that the Chu brothers who were secretly following him would most likely be in danger first.
If Xie Yelan's people were strong enough to follow them, they would of course have discovered Chu Danrong and Chu Dingcong secretly.
Seeing that both brothers were determined at this time, Lin Ye had no choice but to give up temporarily.
He sighed: "You are really smart. I can't deceive you despite all my efforts."
Chu Danrong said: "That's natural. When we brothers started to make our way in the world, we relied on our cleverness."
Chu Dingcong said: "It's because I'm smart, he's still a little behind me."
Chu Danrong: "Fart, how am I worse than you? We both have the same dick number, what else is different?"
Lin Ye was shocked when he heard this.
Are these two brothers so competitive? They even want to compete with each other.
Chu Dingcong said: "Although everything is the same, the invisible mind is different. I am just a little better than you."
Chu Danrong: "Tell me, when did you become stronger than me?"
Chu Dingcong: "The two of us went to help the boss on errands. When we came back, we ran out of money and caught a hare on the road. You were afraid that it wouldn't be enough to eat. I said you would eat it after it was swollen. Didn't you admire me so much?
?”
Chu Danrong: "You fart, how did the money disappear? A little girl called her brother, and you lost your soul. I said she was a liar, and you had to lend her the money!"
Chu Dingcong: "Do you think I suffered a loss?"
Chu Danrong: "You still took advantage?"
Chu Dingcong: "I touched her hand!"
Chu Danrong: "That money is enough to go to a brothel three times!"
Lin Ye sighed, walked to the side and sat down.
The two people quickly turned from a quarrel into a fight. They were still practicing exactly the same kung fu, and it was difficult to tell the winner in a fight.
If they don't fight for a day, they both feel that they have lost something today.
After sitting for a while, Lin Ye realized that these two people didn't need to lie.
The two of them fought without caring about anything. They exposed their waists, hugged, threw and bit their ears. There was no move they didn't use.
So, Lin Ye stood up and walked quietly for a few steps. Looking back, the two of them were pulling each other's hair out.
So he took a deep breath and swept forward with all his strength. He was like a shadow, rushing towards the mountain.
in the dark.
The lazy scholar couldn't help but smile.
He had no interest in those two idiots at all, Lin Ye was his target.
He even felt that if he took action to kill those two idiots, he would be humiliating himself.
Seeing Lin Ye heading towards the top of the mountain, the lazy scholar stepped a little and disappeared in an instant.
He is good at tracking and finding traces, and his Qinggong and body skills are naturally very strong.
At this moment, the two who were fighting had reached the point of biting each other's shoulders.
