Tang Yu and others, a few young and strong men in their twenties, like to listen to this kind of meat jokes and gossip the most, and they all listen to them intently.

After Tang Yu finished talking about the origins of several masters in Qingmeng Mountain, Zhou Haitian still felt that he was not happy, and asked: "What else? There are still those powerful people in Qingmeng Mountain? Where did you hear this? Tell me quickly." ”

Wang Jiye said with a smile: "I know this, he has a cousin who is from the Tongxian Patrol Battalion. ”

Tang Yu also smiled and said, "I did hear this news from my cousin. Not to mention that the three masters of Qingmeng Mountain are all characters, and there are also some powerful characters under them. Yao Qingshan has a righteous son, I heard that he is only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he is very good, and he can single-handedly take on seven or eight good players in the patrol battalion. ”

When Zhou Haitian heard this, he laughed and said, "This must be blown." A fifteen or sixteen-year-old stunned young man, who has not grown all his hair, can actually single-handedly take on seven or eight good players in the patrol battalion, is it possible that the people in the patrol battalion of Tongxian County are all paper-paste?"

"Don't believe it, because there is this nest of mountain bandits in this county, the patrol battalion is not all wine bags and rice bags. My cousin has a good player under him, and I have fought against him, and I can only fight for a draw. Tang Yu said.

Zhou Haitian looked at each other, they had been with Tang Yu for seven or eight years, and they all knew his details, and they might not be able to make a tie with Tang Yu.

"Is it really so remarkable?" Zhou Haitian still didn't believe it.

Tang Yu smiled and said, "Whether it's true or not, we'll know if we go up the mountain tomorrow." ”

Wang Jiye took a sip of wine, thinking in his heart that a few of them should not bump into those good players in Qingmeng Mountain, it is really not enough to see.

These gentlemen are talking happily. Suddenly, I heard a series of loud noises. Everyone stopped. Turn your head to look. The captain smiled at the bow of the boat and said, "There are the most wild ducks in this place." ”

Tang Yu understood, Zhou Haitian smiled and said: "Wild ducks, these are all good things, aren't we short of snacks and food?" Tang Yu, you have the best archery skills, shoot two quickly, let's wrap them in salt and roast the wine." ”

The rest of the crowd chimed in. Tang Yu stood up with a smile and took the bow and crossbow. Let the captain prop up the boat into the grass. The light was not good at night, and Tang Yu's arrows were empty, which made Zhou Haitian laugh.

"Don't laugh at me, you have the ability to try it yourself. Tang Yu pushed the bow and crossbow in front of Zhou Haitian.

Zhou Haitian's archery skills were not as good as Tang Yu's, and he didn't answer with a smile for a while.

"I'll give it a try. A cold female voice suddenly sounded.

The crowd stopped laughing and turned their heads away.

Zhang Xing came out of the cabin with a faint smile on her face, stretched out her hand, and said, "Brother Tang, you bow and crossbow." Can you lend me one?"

A girl can shoot arrows? Tang Yu muttered in his heart, but he still handed over the bow and crossbow in his hand.

Zhang Xing took it. I weighed the feel, although it was a little heavy, but it could be pulled open. She took a bow and shot an arrow, took aim, and released an arrow, and her actions were like flowing water, only to hear a muffled sound, and the captain had sharp eyes and shouted, "Oh, I shot, I shot." ”

The captain hurriedly propped up the boat, fished out a wild duck from the water that was not completely dead, and said with a smile: "This fat is enough for a meal." ”

Zhang Xing handed the bow and crossbow back to Tang Yu, took the wild duck from the captain's hand, and asked the grandfather if he had salt.

The captain nodded, "Yes, yes, it's in my basket, and the girl can see it when she opens it." ”

Zhang Xing picked up the wild ducks to clean up. Tang Yu and Zhou Haitian came back to their senses at this time, looked at each other, Tang Yu looked at Wang Jiye, and then at Wei Minwen, and said with a smile: "Your sister turned out to be a master, why didn't you say it earlier?"

Wei Minwen sneered, Zhang Xing had taken them to catch pheasants and rabbits before, but at that time it was with a fork, and he had also heard Wei Minwu say that Zhang Xing could shoot arrows, but he had never seen it with his own eyes, and he never took it seriously.

On the ship, Zhang Xing has been silent and dull, and this time she is afraid that she will only be able to go to Qingmeng Mountain tomorrow - she will not be a burden to everyone.

He didn't want to force her not to go.

Wang Jiye was also surprised.

Several men on the boat were taken away from their thoughts, and they frequently looked at Zhang Xing, who was cleaning up the wild ducks at the stern of the boat.

Zhang Xing packed up the wild duck, wrapped it in salt, filled it with some miscellaneous ingredients, handed it over to Wei Minwen, and went back to the cabin.

At dawn the next day, they rushed to Jin'an. Several people went separately to inquire about the news, and learned that a few days ago, a large number of ships were really haunted, and their whereabouts were strange, but it was not clear whether they were bandits in Qingmeng Mountain.

Qingmeng Mountain is like a cloud, and a few of them dare not swagger up the mountain to ask for people, and they agree to find out the situation clearly, and then go into the mountain to save people.

They stayed in Qingmeng Mountain for one night, and prepared everything for the next night.

Wei Minwen still didn't give up, and still didn't allow Zhang Xing to follow, but Zhang Xing was very resolute, and Tang Yu was helping on the side, so he had to agree, and said with a calm face: "If you have to go, I can't stop you, just know that this Qingmeng Mountain is not a good place, you must be careful, follow me closely, and don't go too far." I know that you are eager to save people, but you have to remember that you are a girl's family after all, and you must not come out in anything, and if you can, do not open your mouth, so as not to be recognized. We're in our way. ”

He rambled on a bunch of words, and Zhang Xing nodded in agreement. After Wei Minwen finished explaining, he still looked worried.

Tang Yu laughed, patted Wei Minwen on the shoulder, and said, "Brother Wei, don't worry, there are few girls like Zhang who can recognize her." ”

In the cold spring, Zhang Xing was wearing a gray cloth jacket, a horse coat, a collar covering her neck, her face and hands were blackened, and she was wearing a felt hat on her head, like an errand boy.

Wei Minwen looked at Zhang Xing, still sighed, and shook his head, but he didn't mutter anymore.

On this day, after they had eaten early, several people went out of the city separately and met at the foot of Qingmeng Mountain, about two miles away from Jin'an City, and the cat was in the woods, and waited until it was dark. Several people took out their night clothes from their bags and changed into them, their heads and faces were covered, and only two eyes were outside.

Everything was cleaned up, and several people looked at each other. Wang Jiye nodded and said in a deep voice: "Go." ”

Wei Minwen pulled Zhang Xing behind him and said in a low voice: "Keep up, don't get lost." ”

The route into the mountain was obtained by Tang Yu in the Jin'an patrol camp, and he and Liu Jinlai had already taken a turn around the neighborhood during the day.

They followed the proven route and stayed on a mountainside, Tang Yu, who was leading the way in front, beckoned everyone to stop, and said in a low voice: "After passing through the front line of sky, it is Zhang Tianyi's territory, brothers are careful." ”

Wang Jiye turned around and looked at it, and said in a low voice: "The fire is extinguished." ”

Zhou Haitian immediately threw away the fire fold and trampled it out with his foot.

The surroundings suddenly fell dark, the mountains were in a thicket of shadows, and an unknown bird suddenly flapped its wings and flew into the air. Wei Minwen was taken aback.

Wang Jiye looked up and said in a low voice: "It's nothing, it's just a bird." ”

Wei Minwen wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and looked behind him. Zhang Xing only touched his shoulders, and his face couldn't be seen clearly. The mountains are vast and empty, and she is especially thin.

Wei Minwen regretted it again in his heart - she really shouldn't have been allowed to come with her, no matter how well she shot her arrows, it was also a girl's house.

Wei Minwen couldn't help but whisper again: "Be careful, follow closely." ”

Zhang Xing was obedient and moved closer to Wei Minwen.

That line is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there must be mountain bandits guarding and sentry, and it is almost impossible for them to pass through there safely. The route they had agreed on was to avoid this place, to climb up one side of the cliff, to bypass the sky, and into the valley.

They went to the bottom of the cliff and took out the rope hooks and nails that had been prepared in advance. Among them, Liu Jinlai is a mountain baby, and crossing mountains is his strength, and he is naturally the first to go up the mountain.

Liu Jinlai took the rope handed over by Wang Jiye, put the hook nail on his shoulder, hung the hook nail on his waist, and climbed up with his hands and feet.

Wei Minwen saw that Liu Jinlai's figure was getting smaller and smaller, and it was becoming more and more blurred, and he knew that this mountain must not be short.

Liu Jinlai's figure disappeared for a long time, and the hanging rope finally shook. Wang Jiye said: "Okay, he goes up, Brother Wei, you go up, with me here, I won't let Zhang Xing have anything to do." ”

Wei Minwen hesitated for a moment, nodded at Chong Zhangxing, and climbed up along the rope.

He went up, and he should be on the apricot.

Wang Jiye turned his head and saw Zhang Xing carrying the bow and crossbow on his back. She was much shorter, the thinnest of the bunch, like a boy who had not yet grown up, but her movements were unambiguous. Although he couldn't see the expression on her face clearly, he could guess from her neat movements that she was not afraid at all.

Wang Jiye handed the rope in his hand to Zhang Xing's hand and said in a low voice: "Hold on tightly, don't look down." ”

Zhang Xing nodded, followed the rope, and climbed up little by little. Although the cliff is steep, there are still many places to stay, and at intervals there is a hook and nail nailed to the top of the cliff.

The road has long been explored, and it is not so difficult to get on, but it is not long after the spring has entered at this time, and the night in the mountains is even more cold. Zhang Xing felt that her hands and feet didn't look like her own, and her movements were extremely slow.

Although she had climbed over a steeper mountain than this before, she did not dare to be careless, did not bow her head down, only stared at the rope in her hand, and climbed the mountain. I don't know how high she climbed, she saw the two heads above, and when she got closer, she saw Wei Minwen's worried face.

"Be careful. Wei Minwen grabbed Zhang Xing and pulled her up.

Liu Jinlai looked at Zhang Xing with a smile, and then looked at Wei Minwen. This girl is indeed hidden, and she doesn't see panting when she goes up such a high mountain.

After Zhang Xing came up, Tang Yu and Zhou Haitian also came up one after another. After coming up, Tang Yu was panting, and shouted again and again: "Mom, I'm freezing to death, I almost can't even hold the rope tightly." (To be continued......)
