Chapter 867: A Husband Takes Pass
Because Yu Darttou has some relationship with the second master of Baifeng Village, the relationship with Baifeng Village is not bad, but it is only to pay some filial piety to Baifeng Village every year, so that it can pass smoothly from Baifeng Valley, and occasionally can pass through the sandwich road under Baifeng Village.
However, after listening to Yu Darttou's introduction, Zhou Tianqi roughly had a plan.
Zhou Tianqi has heard about Meng Zhen, the lone wolf in the northwest. The concubine Liu before the second prince Zhou Tianming was the only granddaughter of the former Hubu Shangshu, and her grandfather Liu Laoshangshu was killed by the Jianghu hero Meng Zhen more than ten years ago. And Meng Zhen was also even more respected and respected by the people in the rivers and lakes because he killed the biggest corrupt official in the Great Feudal State.
Later, the government has been wanted by Meng Zhen, and he has almost been caught several times, but he is strong in martial arts and has achieved light skills, and he finally escaped.
Unexpectedly, it turned out that he was hiding here. However, even if the government already knew that he was hiding here, it would not be able to attack Baifeng Mountain. With Meng Zhen's martial arts, he can indeed be a one-man man, and he can't open it.
The head of Mr. Liu's dart board is also famous in the rivers and lakes, especially in the northwest, basically all the property that needs to support the dart will find the flying fox dart board, and Liu Yifei's head is the living sign of the flying fox dart board. However, just ten years ago, a dart personally escorted by Mr. Liu was suddenly robbed.
Moreover, the robbers did not leave any clues, and even Mr. Liu didn't know who did it. Later, Mr. Liu left the Flying Fox Dart Bureau alone, and claimed that if he couldn't find the dart, he would never return to the dart game.
For so many years, it must have been Liu Yifei who still didn't find any clues, and he had no shame to return to the Flying Fox Dart Bureau, so he fell into the grass in Baifeng Mountain.
As for the three masters, Zhou Tianqi was very curious. A scholar actually got the respect of two heroes in the rivers and lakes, not only accepted him as an apprentice, but also gave him full authority to manage the affairs of Baifeng Village. It can be seen that this three-master must have his advantages.
Zhou Tianqi asked thoughtfully: "Yu Darttou, do you know what the origin of these three masters is?"
Yu Darttou thought for a while, shook his head and said: "Although I have dealt with Xu San of Baifeng Village a few times, I can't say that I have any friendship. Except for knowing that he used to be a student of Jiangnan Academy, he didn't know anything else. ”
Zhou Tianqi nodded and continued to ask: "Yu Darttou, what is the personality and temperament of this Xu San master?"
When Yu Darttou heard this, he nodded again and again, and praised: "This Xu San is a very righteous person, and the brothers of Baifeng Village are very convinced of him. Moreover, he treats people kindly, is polite, and has no shelf of being in charge at all, not like a person in the rivers and lakes, but more like a scholar. But his martial arts are strong, he has obtained the true inheritance of the big master and the second master, he is decisive, very bold, full of words, and very trustworthy!"
When Zhou Tianqi heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, there was curiosity and appreciation for Xu San's family in his eyes, he nodded slightly, and said with some joy: "In this case, the negotiation between us and Xu San's family should be very smooth, right?"
Yu Darttou had a stiff smile on his face, shook his head helplessly, and said: "Zhou Gongzi doesn't know anything, although Xu San is knowledgeable and reasonable, he treats people well. But he has never had a good face for the people of the government, and he seems to hate the people of the royal family even more in his words. ”
Zhou Tianqi couldn't help frowning, thinking secretly in his heart that most of the people in the rivers and lakes were unwilling to have anything to do with the government, let alone these mountain bandits who were against the government.
However, why did the three masters hate the royal family? Did they ever have any holiday with the royal family?
Zhou Tianqi took a deep breath, nodded and said, "In any case, this batch of grain was sent by the imperial court to Northern Xinjiang for disaster relief. If he really reads poetry and books and understands the righteousness, he will not ignore the life and death of the people in northern Xinjiang because of the festival with the government. ”
Yu Darttou also nodded and said: "Zhou Gongzi is right, as long as your identity is not revealed, I think Xu San will not be too embarrassed for us." ”
Zhou Tianqi frowned slightly, and couldn't help but be a little worried in his heart. Even if his identity was not revealed, Xu San must have known that he was a person sent by the government. I had long known that these were the relief materials of the imperial court, and that the grain convoy was trapped in the valley.
However, the people of Baifeng Village have been ignoring the soldiers trapped in the valley and watching from the wall. It can be seen that the third master of Xu San must be wary of the soldiers in the valley, and it is unlikely that he will be willing to take this risk and promise to let five hundred Yulin troops pass under their cottage.
The road taken by Yu Darttou was very steep, and Zhou Tianqi had not been here before, nor had he met the Yulin Army in the valley.
Zhou Tianqi was secretly worried that although the soldiers were transporting food and materials needed for the winter, these things were all sealed, and the soldiers would never dare to touch the food and quilts for disaster relief.
Therefore, Xiao Wu, Xiao Liu, and those soldiers must be hungry and cold at this moment, and even their lives are undergoing a great test.
Although Zhou Tianqi was anxious in his heart, his face did not show it at all, and he followed closely behind Yu Darthead, climbed over a big mountain, passed through a forest, and finally came to a narrow mountain road.
In front of me is a high mountain with no top in sight, but it is said to be a mountain, but it is actually more like two mountains connected together. At the foot of the two mountains there is a narrow mountain road that is only large enough for a horse-drawn carriage to pass, and the sandwich road is about ten zhang high.
At the top of the road, two mountains are connected. However, looking up, the peaks of the two mountains are separated, and Baifeng Village is built between these two peaks.
Standing in front of the road, Yu Dart head clasped his fists with both hands, and said loudly: "Under Yu Jinyu, I brought a friend to visit Xu San's family, and asked the brothers of Baifeng Village to help spread the word, Yu is grateful!"
Yu Jinyu's voice was very loud, echoing in the valley for a long time, but there was no response.
Zhou Tianqi looked at Yu Jinyu suspiciously, and asked in a low voice: "Yu Darttou, Baifeng Village is built on the top of the mountain, you shout like this, can they hear it?"
Yu Jinyu smiled slightly, nodded, and said: "There are many secret passages in this mountain, all of which are guarded, although no one answers, but the people above must have heard it, let's wait a little longer!"
Zhou Tianqi nodded, carefully observing the environment here, and sure enough, he found many caves hidden in the snow and woods.
If the government forcibly attacked the mountain, there was really no chance of victory, those caves were not easy to find, and from the inside, the line of sight was wide, and the angle of shooting was excellent, presumably there must be well-trained archers hidden inside.
Coupled with this steep mountain and this narrow mountain road, even if the government comes to encircle and suppress Baifeng Village, it is useless, it can only be a heavy casualty and end in failure.
