Because the convoy passed through many places, it would be easy to make people think if the car was empty, so Ging Guo did not plan to stay outside for a long time, but would show up in some places to let people know her whereabouts. Everyone “knows” it.
That night, Bai Guo walked into the inn with Yu Lan under the protection of the night. In the early morning of the next day, dressed in red, she took Yu Lan and Ge Yin into the princess's car, and Pang Yang stood beside the driver.
Ansuke breathed a sigh of relief.
The little ancestor's ability to torment people and make people fearful is increasing day by day.
The journey from Jiangtian County in Huizhou to the border with Lezhou was only five days. Baiguo stayed in the carriage for two days and showed his presence outside before entering Lezhou.
To the north of Lezhou is a continuous mountain range, and to the northeast is Fengguo, a subsidiary state of Hongliang Kingdom.
The mountains surrounded by mountains to the west of Fengguo are to the north of Lezhou, and the endless ocean is to the north of Fengguo.
Also because Fengguo is surrounded by mountains on one side and close to the sea on the other, there are many shipwrecks, so there is very little land for them to plant, and it is extremely difficult to plant, and there are also very few people in their country.
Fengguo's geographical location is very good, blocking the sea and leaving a safe mountain range. This means that the entire northern counties of Lezhou and the border with Fengguo are real backers.
The mountains here do not belong to the boundaries of the Chengzhou Kingdom, nor do they belong to the Feng Kingdom. It can be said to be a buffer zone.
In this area, countless residents of both countries often enter the mountains to hunt to make a living.
However, the mountains here are endless and really towering into the clouds. Countless mountains stand here. Even if the residents of the two countries go deep into these mountains, they will not be able to touch them.
The terrain in the mountains is complex, rugged, remote and dangerous, and there are countless wild animals. Usually people who enter will mark their tracks in advance, otherwise it will be difficult to find the way back, and they are very likely to enter the territory of ferocious beasts.
The first county that Bai Guo and others entered Lezhou was exactly the location of "resting on the mountain and eating the mountain".
Many people saw the group when they entered the county, but they all looked away after taking one look.
When Baiguo's carriage left Jinlinzhou, he took down the Kangle sign on it, and there were only two horses left. If others saw such a big carriage, they would definitely be surprised for a while, but they would only think that It's a carriage that goes beyond regulations, so don't pay much attention to it.
In fact, as long as you leave Kyoto, the regulations in many places are not that strict. On the surface, it is passable and not many people will keep a close eye on you unless you offend someone.
And Bai Guo is in this situation now. Once the identity plate on it is taken off, even if some people feel that Bai Guo's carriage is too big, they will not say anything more, let alone go to the Yamen to report it. Because in their opinion, anyone who dares to use such a large carriage must be powerful in the family, and those who are powerful cannot afford to offend.
Once provoked, it is difficult to guarantee that oneself or even the family will not suffer retaliation in the future.
What's more, in Lezhou, because there are many dandy boys coming all the way to this mountain range, just to compare who has more prey and whose prey is ferocious.
Therefore, under such circumstances, Lezhou has already become immune to people who come in luxurious clothes.
These dandies come and do whatever they like, they just stay away and don't cause any trouble.
The carriage moved forward steadily. Bai Guo was still reading at first. When Magnolia next to her raised the curtain and screamed, Bai Guo looked out together.
The endless mountains outside are connected to the clouds and mist, and only the lower half of the mountain is exposed. Most of the mountains on the top of the mountain are blocked by the clouds and mist, making them invisible from a distance.
Magnolia was amazed that the continuous mountains were so high, as if they already occupied half of the sky.
Baiguo Lengshen's mountain was half shrouded in mist, as if it was connected to a fairyland.
Under the mist are ordinary people, and above the mist is where the gods in the sky live.
Ge Yin turned his head when he saw both of them looking outside. When he saw the outside, he couldn't recover for a while.
I have been in Kyoto for a long time and I have only seen one
There are courtyards one after another, wall after wall with partitions, and I have long forgotten what it looks like outside.
But when I saw this mountain range, the xinxing in my heart that had long been suppressed by the rules came out again.
It's shocking, it's exciting, it's trance-like.
At this moment, it yearns for this mountain, wants to go in, and wants to follow its nature.
The car curtains were not lowered along the way, and the resting place for the day was set at the place closest to the mountain. Only then did Ginguo, Ge Yin and Yu Lan experience the real shock.
Standing under this mountain, you can clearly feel your own insignificance, as small as an insect.
Instead of looking at it from a distance, all the living creatures here can only look up at it with wonder.
"Tomorrow we will go into the mountain." Bai Guo also wanted to go in, so she gave such an order.
She wanted to go into the mountains and have a look.
She was used to seeing countless splendors, but she had never seen such a shocking sight of heaven and earth.
It's so shocking that I can't find any words to describe it, because its existence is like vetoing everything in the world.
Its existence cannot be described in any way, you can only experience its strength personally.
It despises the power of all things in the world.
Ansuke already knew this. After all, he had never seen Bai Guo open the car curtain and look outside, so he was already mentally prepared to make arrangements.
Pang Yang followed the mountain and looked at it. Although he felt heroic in his heart, when his eyes touched the slender figure, he was as soft as ever.
Those emotions and instincts that had just arisen disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Pang Yang couldn't help but smile to himself.
He could always maintain his original intention when he saw her, but he also lost his original intention when he saw her.
Gingguo did not enter the inn immediately, but took a few people to the teahouse.
I opened the window on the second floor of the teahouse and looked outside. It was so beautiful that it seemed like a scene that only existed in my imagination.
The group of people sat down in the private room, and Bai Guo quietly listened to the talk outside.
"Nothing happened when the Li family went up the mountain the day before yesterday. Why were other people injured when they went up the mountain yesterday?" The person who asked the question was obviously confused, and it was obvious that he really didn't understand the situation.
Bai Guo turned his eyes to the other person next to him like the man who was speaking, his eyes also full of curiosity.
The two people talking downstairs did not notice the ginkgo upstairs. The person in question said: "I heard that the people who went up the mountain yesterday took a different path than before. They said they encountered a colorful sika deer and they wanted to chase it. He went up to hunt and live and sell them for money. After chasing him, he couldn't find the way back and his legs were crooked. When he yelled for people, he would be discovered by the tiger. If someone hadn't happened to enter the mountain that day, he might have been killed. Can’t get out!”
The person who asked the question took a breath of air, "A tiger? We really met it?"
"That's not true. If that young master hadn't rescued him with kindness, I'm afraid he would have been..."
The latter part was not said, but he made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"I just said, now I understand how someone who has been in this mountain all year round could be so seriously injured."
The man who asked the question breathed a sigh of relief as if he had confirmed that the road he usually used to enter the mountain was okay, and then asked: "But the young master who saved him is the new one who came two days ago?"
"Yes, he is the one who brought a large number of guards. I heard others said that the guards called him Little Marquis, and he seemed to be from the capital."
Ging Guo raised an eyebrow.
The two people below were not talking about this matter. Obviously there was nothing to discuss about it. One person changed the topic and asked: "Are there really colorful sika deers in the forest?"
"I haven't seen it before, but due to the coincidence of the young master's appearance, many people speculated that the young master was also chasing the sika deer, which is why the two parties bumped into each other."
"Then I will go into the mountains to take a look tomorrow. If I see it, I can come out and talk to others."
Laughter sounded from below, but was interrupted by another person: "Be careful not to go too far, even if you see it, don't
Keep chasing him, if it turns out to be a mountain monster, he'll be in trouble. "
"Don't worry, don't worry, with the Li family's matters at hand, I won't dare to chase you."
The person who had been trying to solve his doubts was relieved, and the two started chatting about other things.
In the private room on the second floor of the teahouse, Gingguo withdrew his eyes and focused on the mountain that was already very close.
Mountain monster?
Bai Guo stood up and said to Ansuke, "I'm going out to find out what the mountain monster is and who is here in Kyoto."
Ansuke took the order and went down.
Only then did Bai Guo take a few people back to the inn to rest. In the early morning, Yulan prepared women's light men's clothes for Bai Guo to change into.
This kind of women's men's clothing is more delicate than real men's clothing, and people can tell at a glance that it is women's clothing. Such clothes were also passed down from the previous dynasty, and they were the first choice for many daughters who were inconvenient to go out.
Bai Guo once followed a car to the battlefield in Yifeng and wore such clothes.
Magnolia stood up Gingguo's hair again, tied it up with a black hairband, and put a jade hairpin on it.
She and Ge Yin are also dressed in the same way, which makes it very convenient to enter the mountains.
Yu Lan was also an experienced person and prepared boots for Ging Guo that women here often wear when going up the mountain.
Because this place is close to the mountains and eats food from the mountains year after year, the boots here are mostly different from those sold in other places. The soles of the boots here are thicker. After wearing them, the soles of the feet feel extremely soft, which is not good after walking like this for a long time. No foot pain.
Ging Guo tried it and found it feasible, so the three of them ate some breakfast and walked out of the room.
Ansuke cupped his fists and saluted Ginkgo before saying: "The people below inquired and said that the mountain monsters are some hares in the mountains that have become spirits. They usually lure people to get lost in the mountains and be unable to get out."
Bai Guo nodded thoughtfully.
An Jie then continued: "Those who have come from the capital include the young marquis from the household of Fu Guohou, the fourth young master from Jian Shizhong's family, and the third and second young masters from the left and right servants of Shangshu."
The auxiliary prince is not the one who has been granted the title now, but the one who was canonized when the Zhou Dynasty was established and the first emperor conquered the country, and was given hereditary status, so he is still the auxiliary prince today.
Jian Shizhong is an official of the third rank and is in charge of all the duties in the province.
Shangshu Zuo and Youpushe are the second-rank official positions in the Shangshu Province. After the earliest Shangshu order was cancelled, they have been in charge of the courtiers of these two official positions, and they have high status.
Ging Guo was really surprised this time.
