Juntian University Chronicle

"I've also heard about the old story of Yaoguang, but didn't the Lord of Yaoguang go to Xisu and then died of a disease?" Gongsun Qian recalled that he had seen this past in history books.

"At that time, my old grandfather once served as the magistrate of a county in Yanzhou, that is, he served here." Lizheng paused and said: "The Yaoguang royal family retreated to this place to avoid disaster, and wanted to wait for the war to pass. It can be regrouped. But the unification of the world is the general trend, and it cannot be resisted by manpower. My grandfather once spoke to the old master of Yaoguang and persuaded him to submit to Juntian, but the King Yaoguang at that time not only refused to agree, but also reprimanded him as a local official for being cowardly. Small fear of trouble, nothing more than his official position."

Gongsun Qian heard that he was talking about this, and knew that he must have a secret, so he concentrated on it and continued to listen to him.

"Afterwards, King Yaoguang took the treasures accumulated by the royal family for several generations and went to Xunsu, hoping that Xunsu would send troops to help. But who would have thought that it would lead to death." Lizheng sighed, and continued: "The world will rise and fall. You are determined, only lamenting the old master of Yaoguang, but can't see through the sinister heart."

"It turns out that the Yaoguang royal family was harmed by others?" Gongsun Qian did not expect to find out a secret today. Although he did not see it with his own eyes, it can be speculated that the whole royal family could be slaughtered. The situation at that time must be shocking.Only the past cannot be pursued, and the present is what needs to be faced. Gongsun Qian couldn't understand the relationship between the two, so he asked again: "But what does this have to do with the moso bamboo here?"

"My lord, forgive me, this old man started talking nonsense when he was talking about the past." Li Zheng got up and saluted.

"Lizheng doesn't need to blame himself, please continue to explain in detail." Gongsun Qian waved his hand.

Lizheng signaled to Fulang to exchange hot tea for Gongsunqian, and Fang said: "Before the royal family of Yaoguang was murdered, the people of Xisu came here."

"What?" Hearing these words, Gongsun Qian was taken aback immediately: "The people from Susu have been here before, how did they enter our country?"

"This old man doesn't know."

"How can foreigners come in and out at will? Wasn't there anyone controlling them at that time?" Gongsun Qian was surprised.

"At that time, the countries were fighting, and Yanzhou was located at the border, so no one had the time to take care of it."

"Then what did they do?"

"They only did one thing." Resentment appeared on Lizheng's old face: "It was to dig Fuyu Mountain."

"Dig the mountain?" Gongsun Qian was very puzzled, why did the people in the house do such a thing?

"Yes, they said that under the Fuyu Mountain in Yaoguang, there are gold mines stretching for tens of miles."

"What?" Gongsun Qian almost doubted his ears: "How come there are such rumors, then what did they dig up?"

"Those people conquered the strong men, without sleep or rest, for nine consecutive days and nights, and finally dug a big hole on Fuyu Mountain that was so deep that the bottom could not be seen."

"Is there really gold in the ground?" Even Zichen, who was standing behind Gongsunqian, couldn't hold back when he heard this.

"A strange thing happened at that time. Cough cough." As Li was speaking, he suddenly started coughing. His husband tried to help him calm down and drank hot water before it stopped.

Both Gongsun Qian and Zichen looked at him, waiting for his next words.

Li Zheng arched his hands and said: "I was traveling far away in Tianquan back then, so I didn't see it with my own eyes. I only heard from the villagers that a white mist like thick smoke suddenly appeared in this cave. When people and animals approached, they would lose their five senses. Severe cases even convulse. The dense moso bamboos on this mountain actually bloomed within a few nights."

"I once saw a book that said: "When a bamboo grows flowers, it will wither in its first year", which is a bad omen." Gongsun Qian said with a frown.

"My lord's words are true. The mountains in Yanzhou are all branches of Fuyu Mountain. Since then, not a single blade of grass has grown, and birds and beasts have disappeared."

"It's really strange that there is such a strange thing!" Gongsun Qian said in a deep voice: "What about those old people who couldn't find the gold mine, have they returned?"

"The Tusu people got nothing, and they were furious. They heard that they beheaded all the recruited men, and threw their bodies on the mountain."

"It's really hateful that that man is so cruel!" Gongsun Qian was filled with righteous indignation when he heard this kind of brutality, and immediately took the case with his palm.

Lizheng shook his head and said: "It's been a long time since the past, human life in wartime is worthless, please don't get angry. What's even more strange is that after the white mist dissipated, spring water came out of the cave, and it didn't stop all night. A lake was formed in the depression, covering up the body of the man. After that, the rumors of the gold mine disappeared, and Fuyu Mountain became a "dead mountain". For more than [-] years, the villagers who were able to walk moved one after another. In other counties and counties, Tianxuan Tianquan is rich and prosperous, and no one has the heart to manage Yanzhou, so until today, it is so deserted."

After listening to Lao Lizheng's words, Gongsun Qian had a lot of thoughts in his heart. He never expected that there was such an old story in Yanzhou.

Lizheng's husband saw that they were almost talking, Fang said: "My lord, it's already late at night, and the little one has already made the bed, why don't you rest here for the night."

Gongsun Qianben was going to stay overnight, but when he saw what he said, he didn't refuse, and cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Ma'am, we won't bother you."

After Gongsunqian and Zichen left, Mrs. Lizheng said, "Oh, why did you suddenly tell a new governor about the old country today?"

Li Zheng moved his cloudy eyeballs, and said: "I have lived here incognito for more than twenty years, and I can never forget the hatred of my homeland. This Gongsun family is famous for being upright and trustworthy, and they still use ancient rituals to educate their children and grandchildren. How can the character of the person who came out be bad? I heard that he was sent here. I had planned that he would not come here, and I wanted to find him. Today, it was a coincidence. Injustice will eventually be cleared up one day!"

"That being said, even if this Gongsun Qian has an ambition, what can he do?" Na Fulang sighed: "Besides, if he really got the Sacred Heart, how could he let it go so far?"

Li Zheng patted his hand and said: "I know all about your worries. The Yaoguang royal family has no descendants, and we are just doing our best to know our destiny!"

At this moment, in the Su family's guest room, Xiao Zhi was standing aside with some anxiety, Su Han was sullen, and reprimanded: "Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing happened!"

"Brother Su, don't get angry. As the saying goes, family ugliness should not be publicized. My son-in-law has done such a scandal. How can I have the face to discuss this matter with others?" Xiao Zhi was ashamed.

Su Han glared at him, and said, "Ying'er is my nephew, how can I be considered an outsider? If A Yuan hadn't complained to me in tears, I didn't even know you were going to force him to become a monk!"

Xiao Zhi clenched his hands that were hidden in his sleeves, and he hated the Su family even more, not to mention his own scandal, but to shake it out, it is really stupid.But he still forced a smile on his face and said: "I don't want to do this, but this is a last resort. If something like this happens, even if he is left at home, what face does he have to face the people around him?"

"Incompetent man!" Su Han slapped his palm on the chair, and said with hatred for his lack of steel: "That brat from the Zheng family dared to do such a thing to your son-in-law of the Xiao family. Come on, don't you just plan to gently peel it off like this?"
