Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 156
Zhu Wei left Zu Lang the approximate location map of several cottages in the Zhongling Mountains. After asking Zu Lang to lead his troops carefully, he took Pang Yan and more than 200 Shanyue elite soldiers with swords and shields to Heixiong Village together.

With Teng Yuyan leading the way, the group of people walked extremely fast. They had passed through a mountain depression in a short time and came to a mountainous area that looked like a paradise.

Under the cover of several surrounding peaks, it is difficult for outsiders to find their way in, but after passing through a narrow mountain road like a cave, a place full of thousands of people appeared in front of Zhu Wei and others. The basin valley with a size of mu is full of reclaimed fertile fields, and there are mountain pools and streams interlaced in the fields, plus some built thatched cottages, bamboo pavilions, and specially planted peach, plum and fruit trees.

The entire valley basin is like a paradise hidden in the mountains, a blessed place on earth.

Then, on the inner side of the valley, there is a residential village. You can see many bamboo, wood, earth and stone houses built along the mountain, just like the elf tribe hidden in the mountains in the movie.

At the entrance of the mountain pass that enters this valley, there is the Qianzhai Gate of this hidden village, guarded by mountain people holding spears and hunting bows, and seeing more than 200 fully armed guards brought by Zhu Wei , he looked a little nervous at first.

Of course, Teng Yuyan led the way, but nothing happened in the end, so Teng Yuyan led Zhu Wei into the Qianzhai Gate, and then passed through the reclaimed Pengu Farm to the Erdaozhai Gate in front of the back hillside. .

On the other hand, the head of Heixiong village, the elders of the village and other leaders from other villages who came to Heixiong village after hearing the news, stood up to welcome Zhu Wei.

Naturally, the mountain people who stayed in the cottage here didn't need to continue to smear their skin with mud, so they all looked a little crudely dressed and dressed a little differently from people outside the mountain, and the others didn't look so obtrusive.

The owner of the Heixiong Village looks about 40 years old, and he looks very strong. Obviously, the boss of the mountain people in Zhongling Mountain is also a brave person, and it can't be inherited by status. The mountain should also be It is not as peaceful as the paradise on the surface.

The village owner seemed to be deliberately wearing a cloth robe similar to that of a powerful family outside the mountain, but his loose hair, the teeth and bone ornaments on his body, and the robe that seemed to be sewn by the mountain people themselves Combined together, it's a bit nondescript.

As for the other people, they were of different age groups. Some were in their 30s, and some looked like they were in their 60s or [-]s. They also wore commoner clothes that were deliberately brought out to meet customers, but they also looked a bit nondescript.

Perhaps they have been in the mountains for a long time and have forgotten what the clothes outside the mountains should look like, so their clothes always look a little out of place.

Seeing Zhu Wei, the village owner and the elders behind him finally had a different attitude from Teng Yuyan. Judging from Zhu Wei's dress and Zhu Wei's appearance and temperament as high as ninety charm attributes, they felt a little self-conscious. It's dirty.

They could tell at a glance that Zhu Wei possessed the aristocratic temperament of a noble family. Compared with their own attire, they were like wild monkeys wearing monkeys and wearing crowns, so when they faced Zhu Wei, their aura Involuntarily lowered it a bit.

At the same time, the head of the Heixiong Village saw Pang Yan and Teng Yuyan who was standing beside Pang Yan like a little bird, in a blink of an eye, he couldn't help feeling embarrassed. He didn't know why his daughter behaved like this again.

But now was not the time to talk about this, so the leader of the village took the lead in greeting Zhu Wei and greeted him respectfully, "Teng Huxiong, a citizen of the mountains and fields of Black Bear Village, has seen this official son, and is not happy to greet him from afar. Please invite him." Forgive me!"

Although Teng Huxiong, the head of the Heixiong Village, looks a bit like a wild man in the mountains, judging by his posture, he seems to have some family background, maybe he is the descendant of some big family who escaped into the mountains in history. Also left some family etiquette.

"It doesn't matter, I am Zhu Wei, the younger brother of Zhu Hao, the former governor of Yuzhang. Now he has been ordered by Liu Muzhou, the shepherd of Yangzhou, to temporarily take over the post of captain of Yuzhang County. This time, I came to Yuzhang specifically to defeat the traitor Zuo Rong. I want to I want to use the Zhongling Mountain Road to plan an attack on Yuzhang City, so please ask the leader of Teng Village for some help!"

Zhu Wei didn't put up any high airs, but just revealed his identity and official position, so that Teng Huxiong could know Zhu Wei's origin, what purpose he came to Zhongling Mountain, so that the other party could He knew what posture he could use to face Zhu Wei.

"Oh, it turned out to be Lord Lieutenant of the County. Since that's the case, the mountain people naturally obeyed. Today, my lord has the honor to visit Heixiong Village. Please go up to the mountain to rest for a while. Huxiong may explain the matter of Zhongling Mountain to my lord!"

Teng Huxiong nodded when he heard the words. In fact, Zhu Wei wanted to use the excuse that Zhong Lingshan wanted to find the mountain people as guides. Zhu Wei had already passed the news several times before, so he knew it well.

It's just that before Teng Huxiong was worried that the nearly ten thousand officers and soldiers entering the mountain would have some bad effects on the mountain. He originally wanted to stay out of the matter. Anyway, the officers and soldiers were not familiar with the affairs in the mountain, so they might retreat after suffering a bit. That's no wonder How about the mountain people in Zhongling Mountain?

But later Teng Huxiong discovered that the officers and soldiers who entered the mountain this time seemed to be very familiar with the marching in the mountain, and then felt Zhu Wei's kindness through the small village before, and knew the names of Zhu Wei and Zu Lang, so they went with Zhongling Mountain. After discussion in each village, they felt that instead of letting this group of officers and soldiers wander around in the mountains, it would be better to take the initiative to make friends, which would be regarded as a good relationship.

Although the mountain people in Zhongling Mountain can basically be self-sufficient in Zhongling Mountain, they are not mountain officials who have no connection with the outside of the mountain. Occasionally, they will send people out of the mountain to exchange medicinal materials and fur in the mountain for salt and cloth. etc. Living materials.

Therefore, the government outside the mountain can naturally impose certain restrictions on them. If the government decides to close the mountain, their life will be difficult, especially if there is no salt, people will be weak and weak, and gradually get sick.

In fact, Teng Huxiong also knew about Ruo Rong's occupation of Yuzhang City. After all, Zhongling Mountain was not very far from Yuzhang City, and the mountain people would go to the villages and towns around Yuzhang City to go to the market regularly, selling goods and buying goods. Goods, to replenish supplies in the mountains.

Yuzhang City, occupied by Ruo Rong, seemed very friendly to the mountain people who went out from Zhongling Mountain at first, but some mountain people found that many Yuzhang people they were familiar with seemed to have disappeared, and turned into some strangers. People occupy the original villages and towns, which makes them feel a little weird.

Later, because many mountain people believed in Taoism and witch gods spread in the mountains, they inevitably conflicted with the Buddhist beliefs promoted by Ruo Rong.

In the end, the mountain people who came out of the mountain were regarded as demons by the Buddhist people under the control of Ruo Rong.
