An hour later, Mu Ziyun and others arrived in front of Ta Ma.
The bell chimed and said, "Isn't it that the outline of the horse's land looks like horse hoof prints? Why is it separated by a ditch in the middle?"
Huzi squatted down and touched the soil, then stood up and said, "The bottom part of the soil seems to be newly dug out, and the top layer seems to have been scorched by something."
"There was a fight," Mu Ziyun said, pointing to the forest next to him, and saw a blind man squatting there, with two holes in his eyes that were bleeding outward.
The blind man was lucky enough to escape after his eyes were burned by a beam of light. He was afraid that the boy in black would kill him again, so he endured the pain and squatted here silently.
After the three people came over, Huzi said first: "Friends"
The man's body was shot and he looked very frightened. Huzi reassured him, "I'm just passing by. I don't mean any harm. I just want to ask what happened here."
"Yes, yes, there has been a war." The man said nervously, hugging the tree.
"Who?" Zingdang asked.
"I don't know, I know," he stammered. The man couldn't go on. Mu Ziyun waved his hand and said, "Don't make it difficult for him."
Huzi straightened up, reached for his waist, and then froze, thinking: "There is only one bottle of pills left. I don't know if there is a blood root in this place. Even if there is, it may not be able to make medicine. I still won’t give it to him.”
Then I saw the man covering his eyes and shaking with his feet on the tree trunk. He was very pitiful and felt a little worried. He turned his head and looked at Mu Ziyun. Mu Ziyun knew what Hu Zi meant. After thinking for a while, he said: "It's not bad. One pill, forget it."
Huzi took the medicine bottle, poured out a pill, and pressed it into the man's mouth. The man was blind and did not dare to resist, so he had to swallow it. Then he felt his eyes were hot and rolled on the ground.
At this time, Mu Ziyun and the others had already moved forward.
Standing at the torn hole in Tamachi, Huzi said: "The people fighting may still be in Tamachi. People who are not familiar with the place, let's not make do with them. Mingqinding is not far from here. Just go there.”
"Okay" "Yes"
Bell Ding shook the bell Mu Ziyun gave him along the way. He became more and more cheerful and jumped without looking back. He said, "My name is Ling Dang. You can't even call this thing. You have to change its name."
Mu Ziyun said: "I'm originally a bell. How can I change my name because of you, but it's you who calls her by her name? How can it be justified?"
Bell ignored it and continued: "What should I call it?"
Mu Ziyun was able to answer the conversation and said casually: "Call Wangyou Ling." Ling Ding turned around and put her hands behind her back, frowning, and said angrily: "How unpleasant it sounds! Xiaomu, you really have no taste, such a name It can be found at any stall in my hometown."
Mu Ziyun twisted his mouth and walked with his hands on his chest, but Ling Ding jumped over, pushed his chin and hummed a few times, thought for a while, and said, "How about calling it Zhaolen? I had this name when I was raising animals. It's very pleasant to listen to." Mu Ziyun put down his hand and opened his mouth when the bell turned around and said to himself as if nothing happened: "Yeah, that's it. If any of you are in a bad mood from now on, I will shake my claws and give it to you. "
After all, he had gone through a lot of things, but he was so embarrassed by this girl that she couldn't do anything or say anything. Mu Ziyun was really defeated. Huzi was counting on his fingers. After counting, it had been a few months since he left Huzhou. He didn't know if the eldest sister's family would let her get married again. No, definitely not. He was right before leaving. The eldest sister shouted out her feelings. The eldest sister must be waiting for him. He cannot delay and must go back as soon as possible.
It's only half an hour's journey to Mingqinding. Listening to the name, a few people thought this place belonged to one of those elegant places. But after seeing it, they discovered that this place is actually a wasteland, which is three mountains connected together. The tops of the mountains are all flat. It was cut like that, and there were only two hillsides on the right where there were many homes.
There were a lot of weeds on the top of Mingqin. After searching for a long time, I found a wild road. I followed it up the mountain and reached those people's houses. Although it was built on the mountainside, everything was available. As soon as we arrived, we could see four or five inns. We randomly found a place to stay, ordered some food, and called a mountain man to ask some questions.
Only then did I know that Mingqinding was really a scenic spot. It is said that a pair of lovers came from the sky and hid here to escape the shackles of the family. The woman loved the piano, so the man used his divine power to flatten the top of the mountain, and then used paulownia wood to make dough. , catalpa wood was used as the base and silk was used as the strings, making a most ordinary piano.
But the woman used it to play the most beautiful sound in the world every night on the top of the mountain, attracting many creatures. A year later, flowers filled the mountains and fields, many literati and poets gathered here, and these mountains were renamed Mingqinding. However, after the lovers passed away, even though many people played the harp on the top, they could not play the beautiful sound. From then on, the top of the harp gradually declined. The descendants of the literati stayed on the mountain and gradually gave up on books. , relying on inns and wine shops to entertain guests in exchange for a living.
Mu Ziyun asked again: "Can the names of those two ancestors be remembered?"
The mountain villager replied: "It has been passed down for many years, but it has long been lost. I only remember that women not only love the piano, but also have the word "qin" in their names, and like to wear purple skirts."
"Thanks"
The mountain man nodded and retreated, then turned around and said, "Do you know, sir, about the announcement of Liang Xiyuan's announcement?"
"I don't know, please tell me."
"Liangxi Academy has brought back the latest map, which is more than a hundred years old. It is said that the area is a hundred miles wider than the previous map. The list is now being announced."
“What is announcement?”
The mountain man explained patiently: "The announcement of the list also means competition. Liangxi Academy does not want gold and silver. It specially sets up difficult problems to test people. Only those who meet the conditions have the opportunity to view the map. If the guest is interested, the map fifty miles away can be There is news about Liangxi Academy, this is a notice issued by Liangxi Academy to all places, new people must be informed about this, and I don’t know more."
"Thank you, thank you." Huzi sent the mountain people out and returned to the table and said, "We must see this map and go to the factory for a walk."
"Okay" Mu Ziyun replied, but Lingdang was lost in thought. He pushed her elbow to bring her back to her senses. Lingdang blinked slowly and said, "I don't know what the most beautiful voice in the world is. I really want to." Go back and listen to it.”
Mu Ziyun and Hu Zi laughed, and Hu Zi added: "We have to find a way to get money. There is not much money to begin with, and we gave most of it to Hu Na. We won't be able to live in Mianzuo for long."
"What can be done? Is it possible to rob?"
As soon as he heard the word "rob", the bell suddenly became energetic. His little palm slapped the table and he said excitedly: "Grab! Where are you going?"
"I'm just saying it casually," Mu Ziyun said awkwardly: "Robbing is inhumane. You can't do it unless you have no choice. Just take it one step at a time. Maybe you can find a way to make money."
Zingdang lowered her hands in disappointment, snorted and turned back to the room.
At night, the three of them fell asleep one after another. In the dream, Huzi finally married Feng Jing. Unfortunately, he gave birth to several children, all of them girls. Finally, a boy was born, but he had the face of Zhang Muziyun. He was so annoyed. Huzi rolled off the bed.
Lingdang had those strange dreams again. In the dream, she seemed to have changed her identity and lived a completely different life. The weather was getting cold, which made her shiver. Suddenly, the scenery in the dream changed again. , she changed her identity again, and the things in her hands changed again, but they didn't look like herself.
Mu Ziyun was half asleep, thinking about the face that he had sketched countless times in his mind. He stretched out his hands but could never catch her red dress. He thought of many versions, but all of them were avoided. The original habit is no longer charming and unapproachable, but pure and lovely, or dignified and beautiful. She is no longer even called Little Matchmaker, but some other beautiful name.
The feeling made his heart itch, but it felt like a piece of it had been taken away. The cold wind blew on him, and the empty heart was filled with ice water. It was boiled into gas by the hot heart, and then condensed into dew, letting out from the body. He slowly fell.
