The sun was shining, the mountains were high and the roads were dangerous, and Zhang Qianhan walked in the mountains with a delegation of more than 100 people.

I saw that the mountains were shrouded in clouds and mist, and from time to time there were people's houses, and wisps of green smoke rose from the rows of huts.

Zhang Qianhan saw that this mountain road was very dangerous and said: "Li Maicheng, you first find someone to beg for food, we have been on the mountain road for a day and found someone to rest for one night." ”

Li Maicheng said: "Okay, Zhang Han, I'll go back when I go." ”

Then Li Maicheng flew away in the clouds, flew over the mountains, and stopped at a people's hut on the mountainside, only to see an old man and an old lady in the courtyard letting a donkey grind the grain.

Li Maicheng followed up and said: "Old man, we are Han envoys, and we are going to the countries of the Western Regions, and now we are passing by here and want to beg for food. ”

When the old man heard this, he looked at Li Maicheng and said, "You bring your people over." ”

Then Li Maicheng flew away in a puff of smoke, startling the old man and shouting: "Monster, monster." ”

After a while, Li Maicheng came with Zhang Qian's envoy, Zhou Xiaotian, Gan Fu and other soldiers.

When the old man saw so many people coming, he said, "Donor, we don't have so much dry food for you to eat." ”

When Zhang Qianhan heard this, he said: "Old man, don't worry, we have dry food with us, borrow your stove to use it, and we will cook it ourselves." ”

When the old man heard this, he said, "Okay, then good, you can use this stove as you please." ”

Li Maicheng hurriedly thanked him and said, "Thank you, old man, thank you for your help." ”

Then Li Maicheng took a few soldiers and began to cook, and Zhang Qian's envoy was not idle, and went to the river under the mountain to fetch water, he carried a bucket, just threw the bucket down, suddenly the other side of the bucket sank into the water, something was dragging him there, and he also dragged him into the water, he shouted a few times, slapped the water, and sank into the water.

Li Maicheng was cooking, and after waiting for a while, he didn't see Zhang Qian's envoy come back, so he asked Zhou Xiaotian and asked him where Zhang Qian's envoy went.

Zhou Xiaotian said: "Maicheng, Zhang Hanenvoy went to the river at the foot of the mountain to fetch water just now, and he hasn't come back yet." ”

Li Maicheng felt a little bad when he heard it, and said casually: "I'll go to the river to have a look." ”

Then Li Maicheng quickly flew to the river, only to see rows of deep footprints on the bank of the river, presumably the footprints of Zhang Qian's Han envoy.

Li Maicheng shouted here: "River god, river god, come out quickly, come out quickly." ”

Suddenly, a river god rushed out of the water and stirred up a high wave, then stood on the shore and said, "Donor, what is the matter with the little fairy?"

Li Maicheng said: "River God, what kind of river is this, our Zhang Han envoy was captured by monsters, and there are monsters in this river." ”

When the river god heard this, he said nervously: "This river is the Danqing River, this water is deep, and there is a big koi monster in it, maybe he took your Zhang Qian Han envoy away." ”

When Li Maicheng heard this, he said: "Thank you to the river god, I will go into the water to save our envoy Zhang Qian." ”

Then Li Maicheng jumped into the deep Danqing River.

Li Maicheng was swimming underwater, and suddenly saw a huge underwater palace, which was guarded by a few small fish, crabs, and small soldiers.

Li Maicheng stabbed these small fish and crab soldiers with a horse lance, stabbed them to death, and then entered the underwater palace, only to see a few big characters of koi palace written on the gate of the palace, seeing this, Li Maicheng was suffocated in the water, out of breath, but he still insisted.

Then he entered the koi palace and saw that the koi monster was talking to his wife in the palace.

The koi spirit saw that Li Maicheng was coming, and shouted: "Dare to make a fool of the people, dare to break into my koi palace, you don't want to live, look at the move." ”

Then the koi monster smashed it with two big hammers, Li Maicheng took the horse lance and the koi monster to fight together, the fight was inseparable, and the koi palace was a mess, and the lady of the koi palace was scared and screamed.

Li Maicheng said as he spoke: "The bold koi monster is about to release our envoy Zhang Qian. ”

The koi monster smashed it with a sledgehammer and said, "I just won't let it go, see what you can do to me?"

Then Li Maicheng and the koi monster hit together, suddenly the koi monster turned into a big koi fish that was five meters long, rushed over, the mouth full of fangs bit Li Maicheng's horse lance pole, Li Maicheng broke free, and ran with a U-turn, at this time the big koi was chasing behind, Li Maicheng rushed out of the water quickly, and the big koi also rushed out of the water and bit Li Maicheng's foot, at this time Zhou Xiaotian also saw it on the bank of the river, and also came to the rescue with a long-handled axe, cutting to the big koi.

The koi monster saw another helper, and dived into the water, Li Maicheng and Zhou Xiaotian dived into the water together, to kill the koi monster, killed, the big koi turned back into a human form and fought with Li Maicheng and Zhou Xiaotian, and after a while, Li Maicheng and Zhou Xiaotian were beaten and dropped the sledgehammer and begged for mercy underground.

Li Maicheng then put the horse lance on the neck of this koi monster and said, "Quickly release our Zhang Qian Han envoy and spare you from death." ”

The koi monster begged for mercy and said, "Okay, come and have a few shrimp soldiers and crab generals, and come and release Zhang Qian's envoy from the big man." ”

Then a few shrimp soldiers and crab generals helped Zhang Qianhan out.

Li Maicheng hurriedly went to help him and said, "Zhang Han, are you okay, you are not injured." ”

Zhang Qian's envoy said: "It's okay, Maicheng, let's go back out of this river now." ”

Li Maicheng said, "Wait a minute, wait until I tie up this koi monster and her wife, and escort it back to the mountain village." ”

Then Li Maicheng took the koi monster and her wife, and Zhou Xiaotian and Zhang Qian went out of the water together, went ashore, and returned to the old man's house.

At this time, the old man was at the door, and the lady who saw the koi monster shouted: "Cui'er, Cui'er, you are back, you can give your father death." ”

When the koi monster lady saw the old man and the old lady, she hugged the old man and the old lady together and said, "Father, mother, I'm back, my daughter is not filial, and she hasn't come back for so many years." ”

The old man said, "It's not your fault, you went to the river to fetch water, and then you never came back, we thought you were drowned, and we searched for it, but we didn't find it, so we put it down." I didn't expect Cui'er to be captured by this koi monster. ”

After saying that, the old man wanted to beat the koi monster with a wooden stick, Cui'er hurriedly stopped and said: "Daddy, this koi monster is a good person, usually very good to me, don't beat him, you ask Li Maicheng to intercede, let our koi monster go." ”

Zhang Qian's envoy thought for a moment and said, "Koi monster, you have a name." ”

The koi monster then said: "Zhang Han, my name is Zhou Fangyu, please let me go, I will definitely not do anything wrong in this Danqing River in the future." ”

Zhang Qian thought for a while, and saw that this koi monster didn't abuse him when he caught him, so he said: "Then let's do it, I will take you Zhou Fangyu as an apprentice, and you will protect us to the Western Regions and protect our Lian Shibi all the way." ”

Zhou Fangyu thought for a moment and said, "Okay, Master, thank you for letting me go." ”

Zhang Qian's envoy said: "You are the first apprentice I accepted, but in view of the fact that Li Maicheng and Zhou Xiaotian are both cultivators with strong martial arts, I will accept them now as the eldest apprentice and the second apprentice, and you Zhou Fangyu will be the third." ”

After Zhou Fangyu heard it, he said excitedly: "Thank you, Master, I will definitely protect you well, and protect your safety all the way with Senior Brother Li Maicheng and Second Senior Brother Zhou Xiaotian." ”

Li Maicheng heard this and said: "Zhou Fangyu, you are still a big koi, if you follow us all the way, we will have good luck." ”

The koi monster Zhou Fangyu said casually: "Senior brother, you are joking, I am also an ordinary koi, cultivating immortals into human form, and I need to ask my senior brother more about his cultivation method in the future." ”

Li Maicheng said modestly when he heard this: "If you say anything, I am just an ordinary mortal, and I have not learned much of this cultivation technique, so I still have to continue to learn it." ”

Zhou Fangyu said: "You are hungry, I will go to my Danqing River to bring you some delicious food." ”

Zhou Xiaotian said excitedly after hearing it: "Okay, okay." ”

Then the koi monster brought a lot of delicious food from the koi palace and brought it to Zhang Qian's delegation to eat, and then they stayed in the old man's house that night.
