Chapter 137: Qingshui Village

In the north of Pingshui City, there is a big river, along the river and then to the northeast, about 30 miles, there is a small lake, the local people call Qingshui Lake.

The northwest two sides of the lake are surrounded by high mountains and cliffs, and the other two sides are next to each other, vast wilderness. The whole landscape situation here presents a semi-encircled opening and closing trend.

And the big river, from the northeast, meandered diagonally, flowed through this clear water lake, and flowed leisurely to the land to the south.

Wang Baoshan and Lu Yun, accompanied by Tian Wei and Xie Zhilong, a group of four, walked along the river for a morning, and finally arrived at the mouth of the river at noon and came to Qingshui Lake.

At this time, the sun is shining, the spring breeze is warm, and the clear water is rippling on the clear water lake.

This green mountain and green water is leisurely and peaceful, and under the water and lake, there is a beautiful scenery.

Let Wang Baoshan and others see it, they are extremely open-minded, and their spirits are lifted.

It's just that this pleasant and nurturing scenery has a touch of noisy noise.

Looking up, on the shore of the clear water lake, next to the bottom of the high mountain, there is a water village covered by clouds and mountains and fog.

Because of the water across the lake, under the misty smoke and waves, people can't really see it, and only some vague outlines can be seen.

"That's Qingshui Village, we can go and avoid the limelight......

Tian Wei, who started the way, pointed to the water village that seemed to float on the surface of the lake, and introduced Wang Baoshan and others.

"Brother Tian, I heard that there are some bandits and heroes in this Qingshui Village, if we go, will they take them in?"

Xie Zhilong asked him as he looked at the empty lake, thoughtful.

"Huh...... Brother Xie's worries are a bit redundant! In fact, the people in Qingshui Village are very easy to get along with......

"So how do we get there?"

When Lu Yun heard this, he seemed to think of the Black Wind Ridge, and wanted to go over to see it.

Wang Baoshan also looked at the Qingshui Village, but he didn't look like them, eager to try, but recalled the meaning of Tian Wei's words.

Could it be that this Tian Wei and the people in Qingshui Village are all familiar people, otherwise how could he say such a thing?

"Yao... Backbite... Daylight... Tick ......"

When he was thinking, Tian Wei found a small bamboo whistle about ten inches long and blew it out of nowhere.

The sharp and slender whistle suddenly cut through the empty lake and echoed to the side of Qingshui Village.

After a while, the same whistle came from that side again, and there seemed to be a hint of joy in its voice.

This made Tian Wei listen, and a smile appeared on his face.

He seemed very happy, and said, "All right, we'll be here in a moment, and in a moment someone will come and pick us up......

Wang Baoshan and several people, seeing his actions, couldn't figure out the situation, I don't know how he Tian Wei has such ability?

He even blew the whistle, so that the people in Qingshui Village rushed over to answer.

Among them, if there is no secret relationship, no one can believe it!

Tian Wei didn't hide it, and immediately said that he had a relationship with a certain eldest brother who sat on the chair in Shuizhai.

This whistle is also a good thing to discuss with the eldest brother before.

Therefore, now when the catastrophe is approaching and there is nowhere to escape, he just goes to go to find a place to stay.

At this point, in order to apologize, he raised his hand and bowed to Wang Baoshan and the other three, not to say: "Everyone, I'm sorry... I was in the city before, and it was very inconvenient to disclose this relationship, but it was also out of consideration for my own safety, so I hope you will understand......"

"Huh...... Nothing... Nothing to ......"

After hearing this, the other three hurriedly returned the salute and expressed their understanding, and no one would really blame him.

Afterwards, the few of them chatted about some inconsequential things to pass the time, and it was not a problem.

Time passed like this, and when it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon, a flat boat rowed leisurely on Qingshui Lake.

The rower was an old man over half a hundred years old, with a white beard and white hair, a patched fisherman's shirt, and bare feet. There was a long bamboo pole left, and he slowly pushed the boat and glided over.

"Uncle Tian...... Why are you here?"

Tian Wei seemed to be very happy and a little surprised when he saw the old man.

"They're all busy, so I'm going to pick you up as soon as I'm fine......"

The old man who was called Uncle Tian by Tian Wei replied to him with a smile while holding the boat, and he seemed to be a little happy.

There seems to be some kind of emotional communication hidden in this happy expression.

What kind of exchange was it that made Wang Baoshan on the side a little confused.

Although Tian Wei and the old man didn't say too much, from their expressions, Wang Baoshan still saw a different kind of communication.

It was a joy that I hadn't seen each other for a long time, and it was also the cordial feeling of the elders and juniors reuniting again after separation......

Wang Baoshan has no way to find out, after all, everyone has only known each other for two days, and he still doesn't know a lot of things.

"Who are these?"

After the boat docked, Tian Lao asked about Wang Baoshan and others.

"Uncle Tian... They are all my friends, and this sudden disaster is also due to them......"

Tian Wei said, and introduced Wang Baoshan, Lu Yun and Xie Zhilong one by one.

After hearing this, Tian Lao nodded, didn't say anything, and let them get on the boat.

"Knock Knock ......"

After everyone got on the boat and sat down, Tian Lao propped up the bamboo pole, smashed the water splash, and began to row towards the other side of the lake, slowly.

On the boat, Wang Baoshan washed his face with lake water, feeling that the water of Qingshui Lake was cool and refreshing, and he didn't feel comfortable for a while.

This made him feel a burst of joy in his heart, which made his previous depression dissipate a lot.

Looking at Qingshui Village, which was getting closer and closer, he seemed to have returned to the scene when he first entered the Black Wind Ridge, and he couldn't help but have a familiar feeling in his heart.

After a while, I saw three more men in the mist of the lake opposite, rocking a fast boat, and went straight to the boat.

Tian Weidang led Wang Baoshan and the others, said goodbye to Tian Lao, and got on their ship.

The men rocked the boat away, approached Qingshui Village, and ran to a pier.

When they arrived at the shore, Tian Wei took them ashore. The three men who rowed the boat rocked the boat and went elsewhere.

When Wang Baoshan looked at the shore, there were big trees on both sides, and there was a grass hut pavilion in the middle of the mountain, surrounded by dense forests.

When I turned around again, I saw a level, full of high walls made of wood and stone piers for defense.

At the top of this level, you can also see guns, swords, halberds, bows, crossbows, and spears, as well as wooden cannon stones placed on the four sides.

Men in plain clothes are standing on it, patrolling in groups of three or five, on the surface of Qingshui Lake in the distance.

"Yo he...... Isn't this Brother Tian?"

At this time, among the men on duty, there was a thin and short man who found them and hurriedly greeted Tian Wei.

"Huh...... Brother Liu, are you good?"

When Tian Wei saw someone coming, he seemed to know each other, and he was also busy greeting.

"Who are these?"

"They're my friends, and this is ......"

After Tian Wei finished introducing Wang Baoshan and a few people, the man hurriedly turned around, greeted them, and said, "Liu Hao, I've seen you......"

"Reasonable... Luckily... Lucky to ......"

Seeing that he was polite and courteous, Wang Baoshan hurriedly returned the salute and expressed his courtesy.

After the two parties gossiped for a while, Tian Wei said to Liu Hao apologetically: "Let's not talk about it for a while, I just came back, I went to the hall to see your uncles first, and in the evening, we are having a good drink." I don't know what Brother Liu, what do you think?"

"Huh...... But it doesn't hurt to go!"

After Liu Hao finished speaking, he went on his own.

Leaving Wang Baoshan and the three of them, they followed Tian Wei into the checkpoint.

What makes Wang Baoshan strange is that after the checkpoint is an upward mountain road, with steps that go straight to the top of the mountain in layers.

On both sides of the road, every ten steps or so, and there is a man, one hand waist knife, one hand holding the flag, it seems that this Qingshui Village, is really well guarded!

After passing two more passes, they arrived at the gate of the water village.

When Wang Baoshan went up to the last step, he could see clearly the entire appearance of Qingshui Village.

I saw high mountains on all sides, the three passes were majestic, surrounded by clusters; in the middle was a flat land, about three or five hundred steps square; the one leaning against the mountain pass was the main gate; on both sides were ear rooms and towers.

Tian Wei led Wang Baoshan and them through the layers of buildings to a lobby with three words on the Juyi Hall.

At this time, in the middle of the lobby, on the chair at the head, there was a good man, dressed in white and plain clothes, with a fierce appearance, on the left chair, sitting Wei Wuzi, who was also in the same costume, and on the right chair, there was a heroic woman.

Looking at the three of them, sitting on the high stage, discussing something, Wang Baoshan guessed their identities.

Presumably they are the leaders of Qingshui Village, I don't know what the difference is compared to the leaders of Heifengling?

"You're here, let me go in and say hello in a moment......"

Tian Wei didn't wait for him to think about it, opened his mouth, and entered the Juyi Hall alone, leaving Wang Baoshan and the three of them waiting outside the hall.

When Wang Baoshan saw him enter, he took a look at the surrounding environment, and felt that it was more like a quiet courtyard in the mountains than Heifengzhuang.

Although along the way, there are many levels and many guards, and they are strictly guarded.

However, due to the fact that this place is close to the mountains and water, the land is narrow and the road is small, and there is only one way into the mountain, but there is rarely a road out of the mountain.

In this way, it is not conducive to this place.

If there is an invading enemy and outflanks him from Qingshui Lake, there will be no way out here.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be taken aback by himself, how could he be able to judge the situation now!

It didn't take long for Tian Wei to smile and walk out of the Juyi Hall.

He took Wang Baoshan and them to a community of thatched huts built next to the cliff and arranged for them to live.

He also told them that there was nothing to entertain in the mountains and wilderness, and that everyone would stay for the time being, and wait a few days before they would divide up.

He also told them that if there was nothing else to do, it was better to stay in the house and not move around freely. When it was time for dinner, he would bring wine and food and get drunk with everyone.

After arranging the three of them, Tian Wei left on his own, saying that he still had something to do, so let everyone rest first.

Wang Baoshan was a little puzzled by his hospitality, he couldn't figure out what kind of identity this Tian Wei was.

Fang Cai's words seemed to be a bit like the host arranging guests, which made him suspicious and depressed.

But thinking of the flint powder, in the back mountain of Qingshui Village, he was embarrassed to dismiss Tian Wei's kindness, so he could only stay for one night for the time being, and then it would be convenient.
