After the two of them had lunch, the old shopkeeper cleaned up the tableware and leftovers and brought tea to the table: "The two guest officers, the two people in the stable, what should I do..."
Mu Zhiming rinsed his mouth with clear tea, and realized that there were still two people tied up in the stable: "Excuse me, old man, do you have a pen and ink here?"
"Yes, yes." The old shopkeeper hurried to get it.
Da Niu and Er Niu were originally two strong men, but after being dragged to the front hall to loosen their ties, they didn't dare to look directly at people, and kept begging for mercy: "Master, spare your life, hero, spare your life."
Mu Zhiming smiled and said, "It's not necessary, I can't stand it."
The two of them kowtowed quiveringly.
Gu Heyan frowned, and scolded in a deep voice, "Get up." If he became fierce, every sentence carried a suffocating aura, I was afraid that the shadow soldiers would be scared to take a detour.
The two were startled and stood up quickly.
Daniel: "Two masters, there are a lot of adults, my brother and I are neither bandits nor robbers, we just passed by and raised our hands."
Erniu grimaced: "I really don't have any bad intentions, I really just want to have a drink with this little boy and make friends, hero, I apologize, I'm sorry."
Mu Zhiming: "Whether you have bad intentions or not, you have to be punished in a small way and commanded a lot. Can you write?"
The two nodded like garlic: "Yes, yes."
"Come, sit." Mu Zhiming pointed to the wooden stool table beside him.
The big bull and the two bulls looked at each other and sat down hesitantly.
Mu Zhiming put the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in front of them and said with a smile, "Write it."
Daniel Erniu looked blank: "Write what."
Mu Zhiming: "Don't do good for small things, don't do bad things for small things, can you write? Do you know which words it is?"
The two shook their heads.
Mu Zhiming wrote it with a brush and asked them to copy it, and the two copied it so that it was called a ghost painting gourd, which was extremely ugly.
Mu Zhiming held his forehead: "Your words are too ugly, rewrite them."
Daniel Erniu didn't know what Mu Zhiming was going to do, and felt very uncomfortable. Gu Heyan was on the side.
"Well, I can barely read it." Mu Zhiming smiled, "Write it."
Big Niu Er Niu: "Huh?"
Mu Zhiming pointed to Da Niu: "You can write it five hundred times." He pointed to Er Niu: "As for you, write it a thousand times."
Big Niu Er Niu: "Ah?!?!?!"
Gu Heyan said coldly, "Write it."
Daniel and Erniu hurriedly lowered their heads and wrote quickly.
The two wrote without tears, Mu Zhiming and Gu Heyan were drinking tea and chatting. During the period, Mu Zhiming went to the backyard, and when he came back, he had a small gray mushroom in his hand.
"I heard that there are many mushrooms in the southwest frontier, but when I see it now, it is true." Mu Zhiming smiled and put the small mushroom in Gu Heyan's hand, "I asked the old man just now, and he said that this mushroom is non-toxic. , I just picked one to play with."
Gu Heyan hummed with a gentle voice.
Daniel: "Heroes..."
Gu Heyan frowned and looked up, not angry.
Daniel was so frightened by Gu Heyan's eyes that he shivered: "I, I, I'm done."
Mu Zhiming walked over with a smile and counted: "Well, really, then you can rest for a while and wait for your brother."
Seeing that it was dusk, Er Niu's hand was about to break, and he finished writing.
Mu Zhiming counted them carefully, and asked the two of them, "Remember? Don't do good for small things, and don't do bad things for small things."
The two said one after another: "I remember, I remember."
Mu Zhiming smiled and said: "Okay, I hope you two will keep it in your heart, not just leave it behind after you finish writing it."
The two waved their hands again and again: "Don't dare."
Mu Zhiming: "Well, let's end today's affairs."
The two were ecstatic and wanted to leave when they stood up, but Mu Zhiming suddenly said, "Wait."
The two were so frightened that they didn't dare to move, and cried in their hearts: What else is there to do!
Mu Zhiming smiled and said, "Didn't the two of you come here to start a fire? Why did you leave in such a hurry, don't eat before leaving?"
The two shook their heads into waves: "Don't eat, don't eat."
Mu Zhiming: "I wonder where the two of you are going next?"
Daniel: "The town in front, Yuncheng."
Mu Zhiming rolled his eyes: "By the way, let's go together?"
Daniel Erniu glanced at Gu Heyan and shook his head frantically: "No no no no no."
Mu Zhiming: "Since the two of you are so unwilling, then don't force it."
Erniu: "Master, the two of us, okay, can we go?"
Mu Zhiming smiled and said, "The rivers and lakes are so big, we are destined to see you again."
The two looked at Gu Heyan cautiously again, and seeing that he was silent and did not refute, the two quickly ran out of the inn without saying a word.
Mu Zhiming returned the pen, ink, paper and inkstone to the old shopkeeper and looked at Gu Heyan: "Let's go back to the house and rest."
Gu Heyan nodded: "Okay."
As long as there is only one bed in a room.
Mu Zhiming gestured while standing beside the bed, then turned to Gu Heyan and said, "Heyan, the bed in this inn is very narrow."
Gu Heyan: "I'll lay the floor."
Mu Zhiming smiled and said, "No, you sleep with your arms around me."
Gu Heyan: "...Okay."
It was even more quiet, the moon on the wall reflected the shadow of the trees, and the two were resting. Gu Heyan held Mu Zhiming in one hand and tucked the quilt for him. He didn't know what he cared about, so he kissed Mu Zhi when he was about to sleep. The Hegu point on the back of the hand.
Mu Zhiming said: "This way, Xiaoxing lives at night and encounters things from time to time. It's hard for you."
"It's not hard." Gu Heyan said softly, "Go to sleep."
"Good sleep." Mu Zhiming closed his eyes, leaned on Gu Heyan, and suddenly froze.
He felt something hard poked in the waist.
"What's wrong?" Gu Heyan asked when he realized that something was wrong with Mu Zhiming.
Mu Zhiming said hesitantly, "...there is...something...it's touching my waist..."
Gu Heyan: "..."
Mu Zhiming: "... He Yan, are you... "
Gu Heyan took out a sign from his arms.
The discomfort of the hard object poking at Mu Zhiming's body disappeared instantly.
Mu Zhiming: "..."
Damn, fortunately, that sentence was not finished just now.
"What's this?" Mu Zhiming took the sign and glanced at it in the moonlight. It was actually the gold-plated silver one with the words 'General Yulin' written on it.
Mu Zhiming was puzzled: "Why did you bring this brand?"
Gu Heyan hesitated for a moment, then explained, "I always carry it with me."
Mu Zhiming was puzzled: "Huh? Why?"
Gu Heyan: "You gave it to me."
Mu Zhiming smiled and said, "What I gave to you, obviously I lost it, and later returned it to you, this is called returning to the original owner."
Gu Heyan didn't argue, just looked at him.
Although this card shows his identity, Gu Heyan has always acted cautiously, Mu Zhiming didn't say much, returned the card to him, then raised his head and kissed the corners of his eyes, kissing his eyes slightly, Mu Zhiming said with a smile: "Tomorrow When you get to the town, it's not as sparsely populated as the road, just in case, put on your half-face mask."
"Okay." Gu Heyan nodded.
Silent night, dream till morning.
The next day, the two woke up early, said goodbye to the old shopkeeper of the inn, and hurried to Yuncheng.
Although Yuncheng is not as prosperous as the Central Plains towns, but as the largest town in the southwest border, it is still crowded and very lively.
The two found an inn, filled their stomachs first, and then asked Xiao Er for the guide of the Thousand Poison Valley.
Xiao Er said enthusiastically: "Oh, the two guest officers really found the right place. There just happened to be a guide in our store! I'm going to invite you?"
Mu Zhiming: "I'm tired."
Xiao Er said no worries, and trot away.
Not long after, the two guides struttingly followed Xiao Er: "Who is going to the Valley of Thousand Poisons?"
Little Eryi pointed: "Second Lord, these two guest officials."
The two guides turned their heads to look, and then ran away.
Gu Heyan frowned: "Stop."
Daniel and Erniu stood up on the spot.
Mu Zhiming smiled and said, "It's a coincidence that the two brothers met again."
Erniu wanted to cry without tears, and shivered: "Yes, yes, yes, why, how is it such a coincidence."
Mu Zhiming: "If you have something to ask for, please take a seat."
Daniel and Erniu are quite discerning, and would rather sit close to Gu Heyan than to stay far away from Mu Zhiming.
"Do the two brothers know how to get to the Valley of Thousand Poisons?" Mu Zhiming asked directly without detouring.
Daniel was still calm and clasped his fists: "To tell you the truth, there is a Poison Dragon Ridge behind Yuncheng, and the Thousand Poison Valley is in this Poison Dragon Ridge. Because there are many miasma and swamps in Dulong Ridge, outsiders don’t know the way, and it takes three or four days to find it, if there is a guide, half a day is enough.”
Mu Zhiming said, "Then I'll trouble you two to take us there tomorrow morning, even if the price is open."
Er Niu patted his chest: "No problem, wrap it on us."
Daniel asked, "I wonder what kind of poison you want to buy when the two masters searched the Valley of Thousand Poisons?"
"Buying poison?" Mu Zhiming smiled and shook his head, "We don't want to buy poison, we're here to treat the disease."
"Cure?" Daniel was astonished, "Thousand Poison Valley cures? Unheard of."
Mu Zhiming said, "I have been infected with a poison called 'Cold Scorpion'. This poison comes from the Valley of Thousand Poisons. I came here to ask the owner of the valley if there is a solution."
"So it is." Daniel nodded, "Thousand Poison Valley is a force in the rivers and lakes, as long as there is enough silver, everything is easy to do, this detoxification should not be a problem, those two masters, we will see you at the entrance of Yuncheng tomorrow. "
"Okay, thank you." Mu Zhiming handed over.
After Da Niu and Er Niu said goodbye, Mu Zhiming smiled and said to Gu Heyan, "Heyan, I see that people from all corners of the world saluting with fists, like this."
He learned from the big bull's gesture just now, and clasped his fists at Gu Heyan: "It's completely different from making a salute. It really is a huge river and lake, informal and interesting.
Gu Heyan kept looking at him without moving his eyes, and said softly, "En."
Mu Zhiming rolled his eyes: "Have enough food and drink, let's go shopping, okay?"
Gu Heyan: "Okay."
The two left the inn, because Gu Heyan wearing a mask always attracted attention, so the two walked to the outskirts of the city where there were few people.
After leaving the city and walking for a few miles to the southwest, Mu Zhiming and Gu Heyan chatted side by side in the sky, comfortably and peacefully. In a blink of an eye, the sun was setting in the west, and the two were preparing to return the same way when a huge stone tablet suddenly appeared in front of them.
There are many tall trees here, and the stone tablet stands beside a tall century-old camphor tree, which is shocking.
Mu Zhiming was attracted, walked to the stone tablet and looked up: "What is this?"
Gu Heyan: "Ying..."
"This is the tomb of the heroic soul."
Suddenly, a woman's voice sounded behind the two of them.
Mu Zhiming turned his head to look, and saw a woman in a light blue round neck robe walking towards them with a horse, her blue silk was tied up, she was wearing no pink, and she was wearing black soap boots. She was dressed as a man, neat and neat. , valiantly.
