Shen Yan then talked about something he had investigated before.
"When investigating the treasure map before, I asked Anwei to explore all over the country and found that the land here is not suitable for farming at all, but there is a very large mountain."
Hearing the word "treasure map", Lu Daxin's pupils contracted. She and Shen Yan had discussed the matter of the tea treasure map before, but the clue was suddenly interrupted and they had no way to continue investigating. They only knew that this matter was related to the palace.
"There is something strange in this mountain. It seems that there is some treasure in this mountain, which makes the nearby villages have no worries about food and clothing. However, when we were investigating the sound, many other things suddenly happened, so we put this matter on hold."
Actually, Chen Yan didn't know a lot. The news that Wei Xin sent back at that time only mentioned something about this mountain. Then there were many other things, so he didn't investigate this place further.
"That's great, let's resolve this matter before going to Yuguan City!" Lu Wan said excitedly. This place looked mysterious.
Yuguan City is the city closest to the Huns on the border. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is also considered the border between the two countries.
Chen Yan had the same idea. Now that he had arrived at this place, he had to resolve this matter.
"I have no objection. What do you think?" After Shen Yan agreed, he asked for the opinions of others.
He knew that Yelu Changqi and Yelu Changchen must be in a hurry to rush to the border, so he had to give them room for choice.
Yelu Changqi actually nodded to show his agreement. He also wanted to see what this place was like. A mysterious thing that supports the economy of an entire city.
The Huns had been living on the grasslands, and were self-sufficient in terms of food and clothing. If they had any other needs, they would trade with the Han people. Their economic situation could be said to be very poor.
Therefore, I am very interested in all the mysterious things in the capital.
Lu Daxin even agreed that if the secret of this mountain was mastered, the national treasury could be filled and there would be no need to worry about threats from other countries.
So a few people stayed here temporarily. Shen Yan arranged all the matters on the border and asked the general to take his place in military training for the time being. There must not be any slackness.
Lu Wan and the others began to wander around this place, trying to see where they could start.
Teahouses and taverns are the best places to get some gossip, so Lu Wan and his friends went to a small teahouse that afternoon to drink tea, listen to storytelling, and help get some gossip.
Although the small teahouse looks small, it is full of people, and the person on the stage is telling a story.
The general meaning is that there was a fairy in Lushui Village named Lushui, who fell in love with a mortal man. She stayed with the man despite the obstruction of the Heavenly Court. In order to separate them, the Heavenly Court set up many difficulties, which the fairy solved one by one.
But the last level was indeed a test for the man. For the priests in heaven, gold, silver and treasures were just a piece of cake, so they gave the man a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, a big house and many beautiful women.
Unexpectedly, this man actually failed the test. Not only did he take all the treasures, but he also forgot about the fairy.
The fairy in the sky saw what the man did and burst into tears. On the one hand, she lamented that she had bad vision in falling in love with such a man, and on the other hand, she believed that such a man was a betrayal of heaven.
Then it turned into a pool of holy water and fell on the Black Water Mountain behind Lushui Village.
Rumor has it that there are treasures on the Black Water Mountain, but the journey is extremely dangerous and if you are not careful, you will be reduced to ashes. Therefore, over the past hundred years, although people know that there are treasures there, few people go to the mountain.
After hearing this story, Shen Yan and Lu Wan were silent and thoughtful.
"It seems that all the secrets are on that mountain. We must go to that mountain to find out."
Lu Wan said excitedly that Lu Wan liked this kind of adventure journey the most, so he was very interested in the secrets of Black Water Mountain.
After returning to the room, they discussed for a while and decided to rest for a day, then go to the street to ask for information, and then go to Heishui Mountain.
After a day of inquiries, Lu Wan and Shen Yan learned that the Black Water Mountain in Lushui Village was very dangerous and that only with a guide could one get in and out of the mountain safely.
Before, many people heard about the treasure of Black Water Mountain and rushed there to look for it, but they did not seek out villagers who were familiar with the mountain roads to lead the way, and in the end, no one was left alive.
Although almost everyone in Lu Wan's group knew martial arts, they could not guarantee that they could get out of the cave safely, so they went to look for the county magistrate.
The county magistrate had said before that they could come to him for anything, but it was just talk. However, he didn’t expect that Lu Wan and the others would actually come to him.
"I wonder what can I do for you, sirs? How can I help you? Just tell me." When the county magistrate saw that Chen Yan and the others had something to ask for, he put on a superior attitude and returned to his previous respectful look.
