After getting off the old hedgehog, the baby hedgehog still wanted to get into the white hedgehog's fur, but the old hedgehog carried his body to Yue Guanchao's feet.
Song Siyuan quickly picked up the little hedgehog and held it in her hand. The little hedgehog sniffed the human breath, stretched out its little tongue and licked her hand, and kept chirping.
Then, the white hedgehog seemed to consciously chirp a few times at Yue Guanchao, and then disappeared into the jungle again.
They originally thought they would take advantage of the white hedgehog to give birth to see if there was a white hedgehog in the hedgehog nest. Now, after the white hedgehog was rescued, he took the initiative to send the baby hedgehog. After thinking about it carefully, they might have heard their conversation during the day. , and immediately felt very magical.
"Now that the white hedgehog is in hand, let's go back home."
After Yue Guanchao finished speaking, the old Taoist priest shook his head: "It's late at night, and all kinds of strange things are coming out in this wilderness. Wait until daybreak before leaving. Everyone, please go to the stone house to deal with them all night."
Although the old Taoist priest did not say it clearly, Yue Guanchao also knew what the strange thing he was referring to, so he simply led everyone back to the cave, closed the door and prepared to spend the night.
In the dead of night, Yue Guanchao was lying on the stone bed and dreaming about yellow beams. In his hazy state, he felt someone approaching him. He suddenly opened his eyes and found two old men and women in simple clothes, staring at him and smiling kindly.
If you look carefully, you can see that the two old men are only as high as his waist. Their clothes are quite special. The old man is wearing a black velvet trousers with blue trimming on the cuffs of his legs and feet. He also has a shiny black fur cloak hanging down on his shoulders. His hair is gray. Mottled, the face is delicate and white, and the two eyes are particularly bright.
As for the old lady's attire, she is similar to an ordinary native old lady. She wears a white silk full-frontal embroidered shirt, an orchid skirt with pleated layers, and is tied around the waist by a belt. The cloak behind her is replaced by snow-white brocade, and her hair Already completely silver-white, with a light powder on his face, he has kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and is very kind.
"You are?"
Before Yue Guanchao could say anything, the two old men had already spoken in advance: "Speaking of which, I would also like to thank you for saving our old couple. This old wolverine usually does many evil things and has been psychic for many years. It knows that the old couple is going to deal with it." , just strike first and try to harm us while we are weak. If you hadn't killed it with one arrow, we would have been in danger."
"We know your purpose, and I will leave this child to you. Although it is relatively young, we have taught it the ability to treat illnesses and save lives. The mountains are high and the rivers are long. Take care of yourself."
After saying that, the old man and the old lady smiled at him and walked out of the door.
"ah!"
Yue Guanchao screamed in alarm. When he opened his eyes, he saw the sun shining on his face. Several people rubbed their eyes and gradually woke up. When they lowered their heads, they saw that the little hedgehog ran out of the cage at some point and was licking the palm of his hand. .
"Hey, have you seen two old men and women?"
"No, I only saw an old Taoist priest."
"Don't interrupt. I really haven't seen you?"
Yue Guanchao's words made everyone look at each other in confusion.
"Then I can still lie to you. We have just woken up. Besides, the door is closed tightly. No one can come in from the outside."
Yue Guanchao doubtfully recalled the dream carefully. The scene in the dream really had no clue. Could it be that he was clouded by the hedgehog's anger and had such a dream? He couldn't understand the situation, so he had to suppress his doubts for the time being.
There was no need to say more, so everyone packed up and washed their faces by the pool, then returned to Tudong from the water channel in the awning boat.
In the next few days, Lan Ruling and the others prepared the Five Poison Packs and made the hedgehog fat. Then they packed their luggage and set foot on the drifting boat, preparing to travel across Sichuan and Sichuan to find the Yinping Witchland.
On this day, the sky was high and the clouds were clear, the wind was refreshing, the river surface was like glass, and birds were flying around.
Several people were escorted by Mr. and Mrs. Ren Wude and the old Taoist priest to the Qingshui River. Today was the engagement day of Gao Azheng and Chunsheng. More than a dozen firecrackers were blasting, gongs and drums were beating, and the streets were lively and joyful.
"Master, why don't you let us follow Junior Sister?"
Fat Centipede and Bamboo Ghost also wanted to go, but the old Taoist priest was unwilling to let them go, saying that it had nothing to do with them, and that he had taken over the business of exorcising corpses, so he stopped them abruptly, regardless of his intentions. Anyway, he probably didn't want all his disciples to suffer in vain.
Ren Wude and his wife wanted to tell Ren Kongque not to go, but they couldn't say it. Whether it was revenge for her biological parents or Cui Zhi, it was impossible for this girl to stay with them anymore.
Ren Peacock was slightly sad and suppressed his discomfort and said: "Old man and mother, don't worry. I will come back after I have solved my own affairs. Then you can go to Qinling with me."
"Besides, let's talk again, take care along the way, but be sure not to fall for the poison."
When Jin Qinghua was leaving, while the boat was still in the shoal, she put another bag of things on the boat before leaving reluctantly.
Several people stood on the boat, waving goodbye to Jin Qinghua. When the shore became a thin line with people like black beans, they saw people gradually walking away.
Ren Peacock opened the bulging bag, and inside were the silver coins she handed them. Of course, there were also many herbal soup pills for self-defense and detoxification.
"Sister, we have also inquired in the past few days. Huayuan County is two hundred miles away from Wujiang River. We can only enter Wujiang River through Huahuan Canal. When we get to Wujiang River, we can follow the Wujiang River and cross the Jialing River. We will dock at Jiange City at the end of the Jialing River. , there is still two hundred miles away from Jiangyou, and our ship cannot pass, so we will have to wait for you at Jiange, okay?"
The boat people couple were talking and Ren Peacock nodded: "If you want, then so be it."
After speaking, several people walked into the cabin, took the map of Sichuan and Sichuan given by the old Taoist priest, and discussed the plan to enter Sichuan.
Song Siyuan spread the map on the table, pointed to the old map and said: "When the old road went to Jiangyou Pass, there was no pontoon bridge on the river, so they had to cross it by boat. I don't know what happened now. If you want to enter the Yinping Ancient Road, you must We have to pass through Jiangyou Pass..."
The peaks here are so precipitous that they hug the sky. Near the pass, there are towering walls with thousands of heights. They have the momentum of a Qingyun sword standing in the sky. The rushing Fujiang River flows across the border. This Fujiang River is rapid and has turbid waves like dragons. It is difficult for ships to sail when the water is high. Okay, it's easiest to defend but difficult to attack.
As early as the Three Kingdoms period, this was the dangerous pass of the Shu-Han Dynasty, which was specially used to guard against the intrusion of Cao Wei's troops from the south. Although it was dangerous and dangerous, Deng Ai was still attacked by Deng Ai from the Yinping Ancient Road. Only then did he completely conquer the capital of Shu and destroy the Shu-Han. Since then, it has still remained here. Pass, forming an ancient town on the south bank of Fujiang River.
During the Republic of China, the Yinping Ancient Road became a shortcut for merchants to enter and exit Gansu Province in northwest China. If businessmen wanted to take the Yinping Road, they would rest in Jiangyou Ancient Town.
Over thousands of years, Jiangyou Pass has become a shortcut from Sichuan and Sichuan to the northwest, and has developed into a prosperous town as a chokepoint for merchants.

Some people died, but not completely...
