The Book of Troubled Times

Chapter 140 Tiger Hill Sword Pool

Huqiu Sword Pool is not a big or small place for the Tang family.

Originally, because of the legend of the last era, it was extremely important, like a forbidden place. But nothing has been found for dozens or hundreds of years, so naturally they won't take it too seriously. Now it is considered a forbidden place in name, but in fact many Tang family children go swimming and playing in the water and no one cares, and the guards are very lax.

Because of this, it is impossible for ordinary guests to go to see it, and it is impossible for ordinary servants to go, but it is very simple for Tang Buqi to speak.

Tang Buqi just came back, and according to the etiquette, he must go to see his parents first, and he planned to take Zhao Changhe there after the work was over. Seeing that Zhao Changhe was impatient, it was okay to think about it, so he threw a sign to him: "Take my sign, and no one will stop you. Go to someone who knows the way and take the guests there."

The servants all looked at each other, and after a long while, a servant girl hesitated and said, "I'll take Mr. Zhao there."

Tang Buqi didn't care too much, and waved his hand: "I'll go see my parents first, and I'll invite you to a good place tonight... Uh, forget it."

Habitually wanting to invite people to a "good place", but she seemed to have something on her mind when she said it, so she stopped talking and left in a sullen mood.

Zhao Changhe watched his back, and felt that this elder nephew might have a change of mind... If he can really work hard, it's a good thing. The eldest nephew was not bad at first, but he was a little playful, a little stupid...uh...

Although she always just said hello to Tang Wanzhuang, it really didn't mean that, but seeing her draped over her clothes and coughing and working at her desk, it was like watching Zhuge Cheng. Sometimes there are serious words that can't be said.

Please help if you can... Although this secret agent job is considered perfect, I can hand it over next time I see you.

While walking, he thought about divergent thinking, and when he followed the maid to the back mountain "Tiger Hill", Zhao Changhe suddenly felt a little bit of disobedience.

Why did this maid silently lead the way without speaking?

No matter how high-minded your family is, and how much you look down on us Jiang Hu people, you wouldn’t be so unruly. After all, I’m a guest brought by your young master himself. I’m not talking about flattery along the way. It is always a matter of course to talk about the legend of Huqiu Sword Pool, right?

Just thinking about it, the maid just said something: "Mr. Zhao and our young master have a good relationship?"

That's normal, why did you go there just now? Zhao Changhe didn't think too much, and said casually: "It's okay."

The servant girl paused for a while again, as if she was searching for something to talk about, before she said, "Tiger Hill is a scenic spot in Gusu. It is said that an emperor was buried here in the last era. Has your son been here?"

"...This is the back garden of your home now, a famous place with a hammer, who can come here, don't chat awkwardly if you don't know how to chat."

The maid hung her head and fell silent.

Zhao Changhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he found a topic by himself: "Everyone can't know all about the history of the era, and I only know part of the legends. The people here really don't know much about it. What kind of emperor is the emperor's mausoleum?"

I secretly thought in my heart that according to the current world, it is the legend of Helu, the king of Wu, but I don't know what it is here.

But the servant girl said: "It is said that he is a sword emperor, it seems that he is not a human emperor."

"So what's buried here are fish intestines?"

"I don't know, I'm just a little maid."

"..."

"In short, our Tang family has been searching for a long time. No matter whether it is the emperor's mausoleum or any sword, we have never found it. In the early years, there were people who tried to understand the sword next to the Thousand Persons Stone, but they didn't realize anything. Now there are people in the Thousand Persons Stone. drying the quilt."

"What is the stone of thousands of people, killing thousands of people?"

"It is said that it is the place where the Sword Emperor taught the law and taught the sword."

Zhao Changhe scratched his head. He didn't know if there was a thousand-person stone in this world... No matter how knowledgeable modern people are, if they don't rely on Baidu, they really can't know everything. But according to conventional cognition, whether it is the tomb of King Helu of Wu or the stone of thousands of people, it should not correspond to any sword emperor. Of course, there is no such thing as a night god. The things of the last era are also very different from the present world, as if history has taken a different route.

On the way, I saw a large stone platform. I don't know if it can hold thousands of people, and no one is drying the quilt. On the contrary, several disciples of the Tang family set up tables and drank wine, pointing at the poetic appearance of the surrounding scenery.

Zhao Changhe shook his head, ignored it, and urged the maid who was poking her neck to see the young master to leave quickly: "What's so interesting about this, which young master of the Tang family do you want to hook up with? We'll talk about it later."

The servant girl reluctantly continued to lead the way, pointing to the nearby mountain stream: "Actually, this side is almost to Jianchi."

"According to your wishes, I can go by myself, right?"

The maid stopped talking again.

Jianchi was guarded, and the laziness was rather slack. When they saw two people coming, they stopped them casually: "The important place of Jianchi is not a place for you young men and women to have a romantic relationship. How come there are always such ignorant things?"

The servant girl blushed, and Zhao Changhe pointed to his nose: "How do you know that I, like your servants from the Tang family, brought the servant girl to Houshan to talk about love?"

The guard looked him up and down, but he became a little cautious: "Your Excellency, you have such a strong evil spirit, who are you?"

The maid put her hands on her hips: "He is the bloodthirsty Asura Zhao Changhe! The young master's friend! The young master gave the sign to pass!"

Zhao Changhe glanced at her, now he thinks my reputation is actually a little bit of face? He didn't want to say much, and took out the sign to signal. The guard hesitated for a moment, but he didn't stop him.

Zhao Changhe went straight into the sword pool, and the little maid followed in a flash.

"Hello." Zhao Changhe squinted at her: "Your task is completed, why should you go? You were very interested in drinking and composing poems, young master?"

The servant girl rubbed her little feet by the pool: "It's not good to leave like this, you will say that I am uneducated."

Zhao Changhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Speaking of which, your Tang family's style is not bad. You suspect that the servant and the maid will not be beaten to death, and you are still making fun of it?"

The servant girl said: "The Tang family is full of spirit."

Zhao Changhe felt that the answer was irrelevant. Wenqi and this aspect are two different things. Well, how many families full of Wenqi are stricter and crueler in this aspect. Forget it, I'm too lazy to ask about such trivial matters, I came to see Jianchi.

So he ignored the maid and went around the pool to feel it.

If it is said that there is evil spirit in the pool, the gentle sword intent of the Tang family's spring water may not be as sensitive as his own body with a strong evil spirit, but after walking around the pool for a long time, he really didn't feel anything.

Zhao Changhe thought for a while, took out his banknotes and other things that could not be soaked in water, put them aside, found a stone to press them on, and plunged into the water with a plop.

Anyway, regardless of whether there is a little maid by her side, Jin Foil and Longque cannot leave her body at any time, no matter how hard it is, she has to bear it.

Now his underwater vision is no longer as good as when he was sent to Yangyang to fight underwater. The progress of the Liuhe Magic Art has been enough for him to focus his eyes. Get adequate internal force protection. As well as holding your breath underwater, the time can also be longer.

However, when I got into the water and looked at the half stick of incense carefully, except for a narrow water channel leading to the mountain stream, there was nothing else, and I didn't feel the slightest bit of so-called evil spirit.

If you don't dig down, it seems that it really stops here, and you can't find anything.

Zhao Changhe wasn't discouraged either, this was normal, the Tang family had stayed here for several generations and hadn't found anything tricky, so why did he find out when he came here? take it easy.

I'm afraid it's useless to dig down, the Tang family has already dug it... If there is a different dimension, there may be a special way to open it, just like the ritual channeling recorded by the Four Elephants Sect... Besides, it may not necessarily be What about here?

Zhao Changhe went upstream while thinking, when his head was about to get out of the water, he was startled suddenly.

The pair of lotus feet above were dangling in the water, almost hitting the little feet directly without a face. Looking carefully, it was the little maid who was sitting on the side, washing her feet leisurely and humming a little tune.

Zhao Changhe walked around angrily, and got out from the side: "What are you doing here?"

The little maid seemed taken aback by him: "You, you are so fast?"

"It's not that big here, how fast is half a stick of incense below?" Zhao Changhe said angrily, "You know I've gone down, and you're still washing your feet here. Do you want me to drink your footwashing water?"

"This pool is not very clean, do you really drink it?"

"..."

"The weather is so hot, and the cool pool is here, who can't resist taking a dip?" The servant girl said confidently, "You went down to take a bath by yourself, and you didn't let others soak your feet. How can you be so overbearing."

"Okay, okay, I'm overbearing." Zhao Changhe worked hard to dry the water vapor speechlessly, picked up the silver ticket and stuffed it back into his arms: "Now I'm going back to find Tang Buqi for dinner, you can continue soaking your feet."

How dare the servant girl leave him here alone, she got up unwillingly to wipe her feet, and followed him back to the manor.

Looking at the back of Zhao Changhe who was striding forward in front of him, the servant girl couldn't help but chuckled lightly, as if she felt it was funny.

Zhao Changhe's eyes behind him captured this smile completely, and the corner of his mouth also curled into a smile.

Who said that this Huqiu sword pool has nothing?

Isn't this a discovery?

This tells me that you are an ordinary little maid, you think I'm stupid...do you think I'm Tang Buqi?
