palm river mountain

Chapter 124
Seeing that Duan Yi was speechless, Cui Zi couldn't help but said, "It is rumored that the one who wins the seal of rivers and mountains wins the world, and the late emperor hid the secret treasure of the Zhou Dynasty in the place where the seal of the country was hidden..."

Before he finished speaking, Chu Guangxi waved his hands vigorously, and he looked at his son Fanyao with some resentment, "No, nothing. When Chu Ge came, he did give us some money."

"However," Chu Guangxi said, looking towards the blacksmith shop outside, "however, she told us to use it to make weapons. Gold and silver are of no use at the bottom of this mountain."

"We finished a storeroom, and saw that it was rusted, so we took it back and re-threw it. We beat it and thawed it again.

Duan Yi's eyes moved, and she smiled slyly, "So this is a treasure. Chu Family Village can keep a weapon for self-defense, and I will take the rest. You also said that I am a descendant of Chu Ge."

Chu Guangxi opened his mouth and nodded helplessly.

Cui Zi on the side watched even more, covering his face with his sleeve indiscriminately.

Duan Yi had sharp eyes and gave him a sideways glance, "Those who achieve great things don't care about small things. Wouldn't it be great for me to use them in the Jiannan army? I don't know the situation in Jiangnan Road. Like us in Jiannan, the capital has not been called for a long time. It's a big boy."

"It doesn't matter whether it's armaments or food, it's all up to you! I haven't seen the little prince and I'm greedy for your iron momo."

Cui Zi thought of Su Yun's delicious appearance even more, and couldn't help but sigh.

The last time he saw Su Yun, the boy was still wearing a robe embroidered with gold thread, running all over the ground with his hips akimbo, followed by eight servant girls, carrying all kinds of food, chasing him to eat.

His father, the king, set up a gold list and asked for a cook everywhere.I don't want to be with Duan Yi now, wearing common clothes, eating bran and swallowing vegetables, and even the cold and hard military rations have become delicious.Thinking about it this way, it seems like a lifetime away.

As Duan Yi said, she raised her second finger, "This second one, I want an iron-eating beast."

As Duan Yi said, she could almost imagine that a cute national treasure was rushing towards her arms, with its fluffy fur and round body... If the surname Chu could own an iron-eating beast, then she would fight What's the matter with the surname Chu today?
Fan Yao scratched his head in confusion, and gave Duan Yi a weird look, "Iron Eater? You took the Heshan Seal, and those weapons and food belonged to you."

"So, you only need one iron-eating beast to help us become naturalized? Every child in the village has an iron-eating beast?"

Duan Yi nodded heavily!

"Yeah! That's right! Iron Eater!!"

Bandits like Lao Jia and refugees in the mountains can be recruited into the army, so what's so difficult about giving the Chu family an identity?
Gu Congrong wished that those mountain people who were self-governing in enclosures would all come down the mountain and become naturalized with peace of mind. Once naturalized, they would be under the supervision of Jiannan Jiedu Envoy, which relieved their worries.

If it weren't for the wolves in the front and the tigers in the back, the Gu family wouldn't have three generations of sons and daughters marrying the mountain people.

Fan Yao was stunned for a long time.

"What about the third condition?" He asked sincerely with a lightened expression.

Duan Yi shook her head, "I said three casually, since I only thought of two, let's go with two."

As she spoke, she straightened her expression and put her hands behind her back, "However, there is one thing I want to make clear to you. I, Duan Yi, have picked up many people, and every time I pick someone up, I have to say it again."

"You choose your own path, don't blame others."

Fan Yao shook his body and nodded heavily. He was about to speak when Duan Yi shook his head.

"Don't worry, you can think it over with your clansmen. If you want to go, go to Jincheng to find me." Duan Yi said, took out a small iron plate and handed it to Fan Yao, "Go to the gate of the city. , so I said Xun Duan San, someone passed it on to me."

"If you don't want to go, it's not a bad thing to stay here. After all, now is not a good time. A big war is about to start. You are all strong men, and you have skills, so it is hard not to be drafted."

"If you want to wait for the fighting to subside before going up, it's okay."

As Duan Yi said, she cupped her fists at the crowd, "Since the time has come, let's go first. If I need anything that belongs to me here, I will come back to get it."

She said, looking towards the door with bright eyes, rubbing her hands excitedly, "Iron-eating beast..."

Seeing her like this, Chu Guangxi couldn't help but said, "Iron-eating beasts won't live forever..."

Duan Yi waved her hand, "Immortal is nothing, I'll be happy for the rest of my life."

Chu Guangxi opened his mouth, and looked at a little brother who was poking his head at the door, "Ao Xu, take the inspiration and give it to Duan San."

"Grandfather, why don't I just send them out of the mountain? My parents passed away early, so I have nothing to worry about here. I've already made up my mind, and I'm going with Duan San today. I want to join the army."

The people around were in an uproar, and they all started talking.

Seeing his firm eyes, Chu Guangxi waved his hands weakly, "Go."

The little brother named Ao Xu knelt down with a plop, kowtowed three times to Chu Guangxi, touched the sword at his waist, and walked out without looking back. Duan Yi and Cui Zi looked at each other even more. With one glance, he hurriedly followed.

The three of them walked not far, and then they disappeared from the village. As far as the eye could see, there was a whole piece of bamboo forest.

In that bamboo forest, you can see iron-eating beasts with naive expressions everywhere.

Ao Xu walked inside, picked up a not-so-big iron-eating beast, and stuffed it into Duan Yi's arms.

"This child is called Lingji. There are not many children in the village, but there are many iron-eating beasts. Because it is lazy, restless, and always likes to sleep, it was not selected."

"When the boy is wandering in the village, he will only ride the iron beast. If you want to ride on the battlefield like Chi You, then you can't."

Duan Yi couldn't hear the people next to her talking, she didn't say anything, and buried her whole face in the iron-eating beast's fur, the little iron-eating beast was startled, twisted Ass struggled.

Cui Zi, who was on the side, looked at him even more, suppressed a smile, and turned his head away.

Duan Yi like this is rare to remind people that she is still a 16-year-old girl.

After feeling that her whole body was full of happiness, Duan Yi just raised her head, squinted her eyes and hummed a little song, and gently stroked Lingji's back with her hand. Thinking about it, Lingji had already sensed that this would become its daily life in the future, so she simply rolled her eyes Shut up, lay in Duan Yi's arms and fell asleep soundly.

"What are you talking about as a mount! How can I be willing to use Lingji as a mount? I will use it as a mount, and it will not be far off! From now on, all the fresh bamboo shoots in Jincheng will be rounded up by myself!"

Cui Zi saw that she spoke with pride, so he said weakly, "Do you have that money?"

Duan Yi's hand holding the inspiration froze, and she looked at Ao Xu resentfully, "Chu Ge really didn't hide gold and silver? Maybe the old patriarch took it for himself, after all, people surnamed Chu are all liars. "
