This mountain is mine

Chapter 240

The four hardships in life: reluctant to give up, unable to ask for, unable to afford to lose, unable to let go.

Overnight, the Yu family can be said to have realized it.

It's completely different from Yu's family's suffering. Yu Miaomiao is completely unaware of what happened to Yu's family.

She had a very lively New Year's Eve, there were so many Yang family members, and there were more people coming and going, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the threshold was trampled.

She was a little tired from visiting the temple fair. She huddled in the small courtyard of the Yang family, and could still hear the bustling sounds in the front yard.

There are many relatives who greet each other from time to time, and she is no longer alone.

And during this time in Bozhou, it seemed that whenever she turned her head, she could see Zhao Man. The days were as sweet as honey, and she lived contentedly.

"Tired? Do you want to sleep for a while? It will take an hour to get to Yibu." Zhao Man patted her precarious little face.

Today is the second day of the new year, and my grandfather sent someone to pick them up to Lan's house.

The second day of the new year is the day when the girl returns to her natal home. Now Yang Hong and Yang Che are both married, and they are both wealthy families in Bozhou. They accompanied their daughter-in-law back to their natal home.

Yang Xun wanted to stay at home to entertain guests. In addition, according to the annual practice, the imperial decree sent to Bozhou in the next few days was about to arrive, and he couldn't leave.

Only Yang Yuan, who was unofficial and a loner, accompanied Zhao Man and Yu Miaomiao, but he was self-aware and took a carriage by himself.

Yu Miaomiao stretched out her hand to push away the hand that disturbed her nap, leaned forward, and her head fell on him, lying on his lap.During this period of time, a few radish heads pestered her, an idler, to play every day, claiming that she could only rest when she was with her aunt, she could be lazy, and being with her children was also a laborious task.

She kept vigil on the [-]th day, went to the temple fair on the first day of the new year, and rushed to Yibu again today. She was really sleepy.

Hearing the slight snoring, Zhao Man reached out and touched her head, and put a cloak in the car on her body.

The little head on the legs arched forward, Zhao Man's body was a little tense and stiff, and his breathing was a little hot.

These few days he is not at his own home, his actions are a bit restrained, a child will appear from time to time, it is not good to pester him too much, he is a vegetarian every day during Chinese New Year, the most recent time was when he was at the inn.

Thinking of that time in the inn, his body became hot.

The woman who was lying on top of him moved her hand a bit, touching a certain part of his hair, if she hadn't heard her snoring, Zhao Man almost thought she was faking it.

He moved slightly, Li Miaomiao groaned, and arched forward again, Zhao Man's hand was on top of her head, he forcibly moved her little hand away, and that little hand patted dissatisfiedly, he I almost felt like I jumped along with it, and my breath was a little panting.

What a wretched woman.

His hand passed through her armpit, hugging her like a child, Yu Miaomiao opened her eyes in a daze, Zhao Man said seriously: "Lie down and sleep."

She closed her eyes again and let Zhao Man play with her. She rested her head on his lap, lay flat on the couch in the carriage, and fell into a deep sleep again.

Zhao Man wrapped his arms around her waist to prevent her from rolling down with the shaking carriage.

It didn't take long before he felt hot all of a sudden, but Yu Miaomiao was facing him, with most of his face lying on his lap, maybe he was tired, and his breath was a little heavy, the hot air from the tip of his nose sprayed on the body that he had just calmed down just now. place.

It's so excruciating to feel like it's nowhere near it.

Zhao Man's eyes were dim, looking at the sleeping woman, he couldn't laugh or cry, "You really know how to find a place..."

He simply reached out and dragged her face with the palm of his hand, and rubbed his fingertips on her face, feeling the soft touch. Seeing her long eyelashes trembling and her lips pursed, he bowed his head and pecked, unable to bear it. Prying open the red lips and poking in, there was a low moan in my throat, and shouts from all parts of my body.

Yu Miaomiao groaned and pushed him, Zhao Man retracted, leaning against the wall of the car to breathe.

After hesitating for a while, he decided on a policy that if the enemy does not move, we will not do so. After all, the right time, place, and people do not take advantage of everything.

However, if the enemy made any small moves and couldn't bear it anymore, he had no choice but to punish her on the spot.

Zhao Man thought so.

He withdrew his hand and let her lie on his lap.

Waiting quietly.

On the one hand, he didn't want her to move around, so as not to do something that was prostitution in the daytime, but on the other hand, he was looking forward to it.

Under such complicated moods, time seemed to fly by so fast.

The coachman in front said: "Lady, young master, we will be here soon. The old man and the others are waiting at the gate of the village, and they all saw people."

Zhao Man patted Yu Miaomiao's face lightly, feeling a little regretful.

Yu Miaomiao didn't know his complicated thoughts, "Is it there yet?"

"arrive."

Yu Miaomiao rubbed her eyes, became more awake, straightened her clothes again, and just after finishing, the carriage stopped slowly.

Zhao Man lifted the curtain and led Yu Miaomiao out.

Yu Miaomiao thought that the Yang family was enough, but did not expect the Lan family to have more, and this Miao village is inhabited by a single clan, much more than the Yang family whose clan members have been separated. The scene is very grand, and there are many people watching the excitement. Yu Miaomiao obviously didn't do anything, but was made like a homecoming by the battle.

Mr. Lan also didn't plan to hide Yu Miaomiao's identity from his closest relatives. Besides, Yu Miaomiao's face couldn't be hidden. This is a Miao village, and the Lan family belongs to the Gu Miao clan. Naturally, there are many people who refine Gu. There are more people who are proficient in this way, and it can be seen that Yu Miaomiao has medicine Gu, and there must be some.

A mighty group of people stood at the gate of the village.

Yu Miaomiao's mother, Lan's mother, had two older brothers, two older sisters, and countless cousins, two rows of uncles, nephews and nieces that dazzled Li Miaomiao, and Li Miaomiao's grandchildren. Crawl around.

After finally entering the house, it was more than half an hour before the clansmen were dismissed.

There is no need to mention things such as the recognition of relatives and greetings. I heard that the Gu Miao clan may play Gu at any time and anywhere. I don’t know when they will be enlightened. An exception was found.

All the close relatives in this family know that she has medicine Gu, and it is useless for her to lay Gu on Zhao Man?They are a husband and wife, and it will still fall on Yu Miaomiao in the end. They also feel sorry for Yaomei's early death and did nothing.

After the family had dinner, they sat and chatted, and the topic naturally turned to Gu art. Mr. Lan told Yu Miaomiao about the results of his research in the past few days, and he still hadn't found a way to take out the medicine Gu.

Although Yu Miaomiao was a little disappointed, she didn't show it too much. After all, this matter has two sides.

I can only urge myself on the Gu technique, and when I become stronger, no one will dare to attack her.Mr. Lan found a few books of Gu art secrets that were suitable for her to practice, and handed them to her.

Yu Miaomiao asked about Chang Chuxin again, since the Gu Miao tribe came, she naturally wanted to pay attention to the only person she knew.

"The last time grandpa laid a spell on her, did the Chang family come to embarrass Lanzhai?"

After Yu Miaomiao finished speaking, the cousins ​​snorted coldly, "Look, why don't you look for it, but it's their fault in the first place, and they actually bullied our Lanzhai people. It's already punishment for not breaking Chang Chuxin's hand." It's really generous, but it's just a Gu worm."

"Cousin, if she robs you of a man again, you will give her wishful thinking. Whenever she thinks of your man, her heart will be twisted like a knife. Life would be worse than death."

Yu Miaomiao was surprised, "Third Cousin, is there such a Gu?"

If Chang Chuxin couldn't see through it, now he probably thought that Zhao Man's life would be worse than death, even if he didn't plant Gu, he would be almost like Gu.

"Of course. See if you can refine it. Cousin, you still have a lot to learn. Now you only have Xuerong. This Gu insect is not aggressive and cannot be used for self-defense... the most powerful attack method among Gu arts , can drive hundreds of insects, make them obey orders, and form formations to fight. If little aunt (Lan Shi) can live, maybe she can practice it."

"She has medicine Gu in her body, and her starting point is higher than others. Medicine Gu is the king of ten thousand Gu, and other Gu insects have a heart of fear."

Yu Miaomiao's ability to accept Gu is much stronger than before, and Mr. Lan didn't stop his children and grandchildren from popularizing it with Yu Miaomiao. Today, Yu Miaomiao has an understanding of the world of Gu and has opened his eyes.Some people look forward to whether they can refine Gu independently, and don't know what they will refine.

Gu worms have a great relationship with the level of cultivation, aptitude, and disposition of the Gu art refiner. Refining a Gu worm is like raising a child, and the Gu worms also have their own personalities.

As for Yu Hundred Insects, using insects as soldiers does not mean that there are so many Gu worms that can be manipulated. It takes time and effort to refine Gu worms, and top-quality Gu worms are even rarer. Instead, it is to control the nearby insects to attack. enemy.

Although Yu Miaomiao also thought about it, but now she can only think about it as a target, thinking of that scene makes her scalp tingle.

One day, she wouldn't need others to protect her, and it would be a means of self-protection.This can be regarded as the compensation brought by the medicine Gu, and she can't waste it before the medicine Gu is expelled.

The topic was diverted a long way, and by the time Yu Miaomiao remembered Chang Chuxin's follow-up, it was after dinner.

The tenth cousin told Yu Miaomiao about Chang Chuxin.

When Chang Chuxin was sent back, the Chang family naturally knew that Chang Chuxin had been given a secret-keeping Gu. The Gu played by Mr. Lan was very difficult to understand. Although as long as he kept the secret, he would not hurt himself, but Mr. Lan, a highly respected elder, actually treated the Gu Miao people. No matter what, it is untenable for a junior inside to make a move.

People from Changzhai came to Lanzhai to ask for an explanation, but they were ridiculed by the people from Lanzhai who received a letter from Mr. Lan.

In the Gu Miao clan, it is not a shameful thing to control the sweetheart with love Gu so that they cannot have estrangement. On the contrary, the Miao girls are tough, so that they can marry with peace of mind. This way is very popular. They don't think it is It is wrong, and those unscrupulous people should be punished.

However, the truth is the same everywhere, and Miao people are not completely unreasonable. If they meet someone who already has a lover and lose the fight, they can only obediently admit defeat and can no longer continue to stalk.

What Chang Chuxin did was known, and he was also despised and ridiculed.

In particular, she got together with the poisonous women Qiu Niang and A Cen who were expelled from the Gu Miao tribe, which made the people of Changzhai very annoyed, and Mr. Lan would not use this kind of thing to wrong a junior. Chang Chuxin's father read it In the letter written by Old Master Lan, he even forgot to detoxify Chang Chuxin, so he went back directly.

Later, when the Xie family came to him, the fact that Xie Rong died at Chang Chuxin's hands was exposed to the Xie family, and everyone in the Gu Miao family knew about it.

Xie Rong is not a direct branch of the Xie family in Bozhou. Although his Gu skills are superb, but because of his withdrawn personality, the clansmen seldom notice him. He has disappeared for so long and no one has noticed, but it is one thing for everyone not to notice. , if he died, he would still be killed by a member of the Gu Miao clan, that would be a big problem.

The Chang family had to give an explanation, and the two villages of Xie and Chang started to quarrel.

Xie Rong's death involved many things. Although Chang Chuxin was also very angry at the beginning, she also thought of the consequences after the incident. However, she also has a valid reason, so she is not afraid of the tribe's troubles.

There is a rule in the Gu Miao tribe that Gu art can be used anywhere, Gu refiners also need to survive, and Gu refinement is also a waste of money and manpower, and they can serve outsiders in exchange for rewards, even if it is Xie who made such a shameful The Gu worms guarding the gold mine for the Murong family are also within the allowed range.

The law of the jungle is the law of survival.

It's just that there can't be any direct connection between the Gu technique and the Chaogang, and the royal family.

With such a rule, Chang Chu's heart can stand. After all, Xie Rong was helping the prince to lay a spell on Zhao Man. Zhao Man was demoted to a commoner. Eliminate the harm for the clansmen, so as not to make a big mess and end badly.

This also covered up the fact that she attacked the clansmen because of her affection for Zhao Man.

As for what kind of Gu Xie Rong played, why Zhao Man didn't die, no one paid attention to this matter.

The evil of the Gu technique, the world's discoloration after hearing it, the imperial court is very afraid of the Gu seedlings. If the Gu technique is used to cholera, it may bring about the disaster of genocide. The bottom line has always been strictly followed.

After all, if the two sides face each other, both sides will lose. The biggest disadvantage of the Gu Miao tribe is that refining Gu insects is very time-consuming and laborious, so the number of Gu insects is not large, and it is difficult to defeat thousands of troops.

And the imperial court didn't want to make unnecessary sacrifices. After the Yang family entered the anchor state, they also managed the Gu Miao clan with the same policy. If they can assimilate, they will assimilate gently, and if they can't assimilate, they will divide and let them contain each other to fight.

Provoking the dispute between Chang and Xie is just a usual method.

Now that the Yang family has chosen to fight with Xie and Chang, they naturally don't allow them to end the fight at will. The quarrel became more and more fierce until the end of the year. In less than half a year, both sides were hurt. Both sides' strength was greatly reduced. down.

Yu Miaomiao didn't expect such things to happen in Miaojiang, which she didn't know, and fights really were everywhere.

However, these are still a little far away from her, and she just sighed twice, nowhere is peaceful, and she is more worried that Chang Chuxin will regenerate.

Third Cousin: "Chang Chuxin provoked an incident, and was imprisoned in the village by the Chang family afterwards, and never appeared again. However, she has a talent for cultivating Gu, and her physical condition is also good. After this blow, Chang , lost a lot of talented young people, and it is impossible to give up on her."

Sixth Cousin: "She can withstand Xie Rong's natal Gu, and maybe her body can also be cultivated into a medicinal Gu container. Chang has been refining medicinal Gu for so many years. If she shows up next time, if she hasn't given up on her cousin-in-law, cousin, you There is no advantage, maybe the medicine Gu can be refined by her."

Tenth cousin: "Work hard, cousin! You only have the advantage of medicine Gu. If she also masters it and comes to rob someone, maybe her cousin's husband is really taken away. I heard that her appearance She has recovered, she is the first-class beauty of Gu Miao."

For the first time, medicine Gu was underestimated by Lan's cousins.It is counted as "such a small advantage".

"Cousin-in-law is also reluctant to attack Chang Chuxin, cousin, you are in danger, go practice Gu!"

"."

Everyone chattered and expressed concern for Yu Miaomiao. Yu Miaomiao squinted at Zhao Man, but Zhao Man didn't even blink his eyes.

The Chang Chuxin in everyone's mouth is a little far away from the comrade in arms who lived and died together in his impression, and the face of the little military doctor at the beginning is gradually blurred.

Yu Miaomiao thought that Chang Chuxin was practicing in seclusion, but she didn't expect to meet her within a few days.

Yu Miaomiao's life in Yibu was not easy.

Different from the Yang family, in general, each has its own way of doing things.

Most of the time I read the secrets of the Lan family's voodoo. Many voodoo techniques in Miaojiang are passed on to women but not to men. Moreover, women's bodies have inherent advantages in refining Gu. Yu Miaomiao's mother came from the Lan family, and she has With bloodlines and medicine Gu on his body, he is stronger than many people.

As long as she thinks, she is also qualified to read Lan's collection, and she can choose the Gu technique she wants to learn from it.

Yu Miaomiao directly chose the Gu technique of controlling hundreds of insects. Although it was difficult, she felt that she needed a way to protect herself, and she didn't want the house to be full of Gu insects.

He chose another heart-refining Gu technique.

With the method of attacking, and the method of self-cultivation and self-cultivation, greed will not kill you, and she doesn't want to become a Gu doctor, that's enough.

In addition, every day is to see all kinds of strange Gu worms in the Lan clan, to learn a lot, and to be encouraged and spurred by her cousins ​​by the way, to stimulate fighting spirit.

The meeting gifts from her brothers and sisters are all Gu worms, and she has a lot of semi-finished resources, and she has changed from abject poverty to the most "rich" person in Lanjiazhai who has the most worms.

After careful study, she put them in the small cauldron according to the Gu skills she chose.

Yu Miaomiao is very looking forward to what kind of Gu he can refine. I heard that even for the same Gu technique, different people can refine it differently.

Of course, the meeting gifts she gave were all from her own family, some of which were gourds, but later they ran out of gourds, so they used Fangling's wine and wool products instead, as well as various small items from Yuzhou.

Yu Miaomiao hadn't even been out of Lanjiazhai's gate, time passed and it was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

Only then did I have time to follow the third brother to see Yibu's wine shop.

The most famous thing in Banzhou is wine, and the birthplace of Banzhou wine is in Yibu.

Yibu is located in the southernmost part of Banzhou, and the Chishui River flows through here. The unique climate has created the quality of the wine here.

When the moon is in the sky, go boating down the Chishui River. There are boats on the river from time to time, and there are lanterns floating along the water. It is very lively. In addition, there are wineries of all sizes on the riverside , the lanterns along both sides of the river are like stars.

Yu Miaomiao leaned on Zhao Man's back, watched and listened to Yang Yuan talking about the development experience of Bozhou wine. From time to time, naughty cousins ​​and cousins ​​would make fun of him. He could only smell the aroma of the wine, and he would get a little drunk if he didn't drink it.

Not long after, a tributary appeared, and the boat turned into this tributary. The water was much weaker, and more lanterns floated out here.

The cousin reminded Yu Miaomiao not to touch it lightly. If some Miao girls don't like others to touch their wishes and get a voodoo, the gain will not be worth the loss. Although the venom has no fatal effect on her, it is still a bit uncomfortable.

Yu Miaomiao's voodoo technique can be regarded as an introduction, and he used these lanterns as a practice, and found that a few of them were really vomited.

Yu Miaomiao was staring at the river with interest, but suddenly felt as if someone was staring at her, like a glow on her body.

She raised her head and looked forward, but there was a stone bridge in front of her. The stone bridge was very lively, and there were lantern riddle games. Except for the crowds, there was nothing unusual. Under the stone bridge was the source of the lanterns on the river. Now, several young girls are squatting by the water, pouring water and sending lights.

She looked over one by one, and among the girls whose faces were illuminated by the lights on the stone bridge, she didn't find a figure in the shadow under the bridge, but her eyes tightened.

Only a dark shadow was exposed, and her face could not be seen clearly. Looking at her outline, one could vaguely tell that she was a tall and slender girl.

The boat got closer and closer, and the light of the lanterns on the boat dimmed the shadows.

The woman stood still, and her face gradually became clear. As expected, this woman was staring at Yu Miaomiao. At this moment, when she met her frontal gaze, Yu Miaomiao was stunned.

This girl is extremely beautiful, with exquisite facial features, heroic looks in her eyebrows and eyes, delicate clothes, radiant under the light, very gorgeous, and a pair of eyes that are even more beautiful, as bright as spring water, looking directly at her, she is more beautiful than her. All the lights on the river are to be on.

Seeing Zhao Man following Yu Miaomiao's line of sight, she smiled at Zhao Man, her smile was so bright that it touched everyone's heart!
Then, the woman turned her eyes from Zhao Man, looked at Yu Miaomiao, and suppressed her smile.

Although it was far from the scarred face at the beginning, and it didn't look like the same person at all, Yu Miaomiao still recognized it.

The scar on her hand has not healed. Although the gauze and splint on one side have been removed, she still has a dull pain in the rainy weather. She said coldly: "Chang Chuxin."

Yu Miaomiao thought, it's no wonder that Chang Chuxin had self-confidence at the beginning, she is really a beauty, her androgynous, unisex appearance, she is more heroic than a woman when she is dressed as a woman, and more handsome than a man when she is dressed as a man, no wonder she is in the army Zhao Man didn't see through that it was his daughter's body. Of course, he was too slow to be one of the reasons.

It’s just that she had scars all over her face at the beginning, and she was still able to get rid of the poison because of the poison. Then I gave her a few whips, and it took a long time, and the scars were not left. Does Song Dynasty have such a good skin smoothing technique? ?

She stared at Chang Chuxin's face, trying to see the clue.

Zhao Man's eyes were slightly focused, full of vigilance, and he obviously recognized her, but his eyes were cold, since the last time he let her leave Fangling, all his patience and past affection had been worn away.

When Chang Chuxin heard Yu Miaomiao's words, she instinctively ignored them, as if she hadn't noticed the coldness in Zhao Man's eyes, she looked at him and smiled sweetly, "Aman can still recognize me, remember me."

Her voice was soft and quick, as if she had forgotten all the unpleasant things before.
