Chapter 14: Black Wind Village

In the next time, Wang Baoshan and the four of them, buried their heads in asceticism, silent, just cared about moving forward, all the way over the mountains and mountains, wading through the river, and walking forward without stopping.

At night, I couldn't walk anymore, so I found a safer place and settled down for the night.

As soon as he stopped, he lit a small fire, set up an iron pot, and found some mountain spring water, and cooked a pot of wild vegetables and millet porridge with wild vegetables and millet to satisfy everyone's hunger.

After dinner, they went to sleep. Recharge your energy and take more paths during the day.

The next afternoon, when the sun was setting, the four of them finally saw the boundary of the Black Wind Ridge.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, a large brownish-black ridge appeared gray. As far as the eye can see, they are of different heights, the high peaks are thousands of zhang, but the short ones are shaped like big earth buns, the height is staggered, and the disorderly ones; the folds between the mountain ranges are criss-crossed, thousands of ravines and ravines, undulating, and occupy a wide area.

At that time of the wind and clouds, over the rolling mountains, there were faint bursts of black wild wind, slowly drifting by, looking gray and bleak between the world and the earth, and it was worthy of the name.

When they arrived, they made a difficulty, looking at the large mountains and huge peaks, where to find the hidden Black Wind Village!

When Wang Baoshan and the others saw this, they couldn't help but look embarrassed, thinking that they had worked hard and finally came to Heifengling, but they could only look through the autumn water, and they didn't know the path, how could they not make it difficult for them? But they were unwilling, and no longer hesitated, and were about to move forward, but were stopped by Luo Ying.

I heard him say, "It's getting dark, so we'll just wait here." The road to the village is extremely hidden, and there is a secret sentry guard, so it is inevitable that there will be some collisions if you are invited to go, so you should wait until tomorrow to make plans. ”

Now that you have arrived at the Black Wind Ridge, there is no need to rush for a while. Fortunately, there are also several rivers in this Black Wind Ridge, and there are many large and small lakes, and the water source is also abundant. So, they found a place by water, buried the pot to cook, and prepared to spend the night.

"Big brother, seeing that this Black Wind Village is not a kind place, what should we do?" Du Xiaosan sat on the side, watching Wang Baoshan busy cooking porridge by himself, looking a little worried.

"I said! If you come, you will be safe, third brother, you can rest assured! There is always a way...... "Wang Baoshan was very busy, and his dark and rough face was burned with smoke and fire at this time, which made people look funny.

Du Xiaosan said: "That being said, when the matter comes to an end, we still have to discuss it carefully!"

"Yes, second brother, what do you say we should do?" Wang Baoshan tinkered with the millet soup in the pot, turned his head and asked Sanpi, who was lying in the grass with his eyes closed.

Sanpi didn't raise his eyelids, and said, "Big brother, third brother, didn't that little hunter say that there is no one to lead the way in Heifeng Village, and outsiders can't enter, so we will wait inside." Look at tomorrow, if we are lucky and someone comes out, we will go and talk about it again and see how it goes..."

"What if they take us to the city and receive our reward?

"I said that if you are afraid, don't come! Wouldn't it be better to find a deep mountain and old forest to hide for the rest of your life. Not all people are villains who are interested in profit, don't underestimate the people of Black Wind Village. Luo Ying, who was arranging the bow and arrows on the side, interrupted Du Xiaosan's words mercilessly.

"It's not a matter of hiding for the rest of your life. Wang Baoshan didn't care about the sarcasm in Luo Ying's words, sighed, and then said: "I heard from the people in the village that there are good and bad robbers, although most of them are not good people, but there are always good people, we don't ask for much good, just be a servant doing chores in their village." ”

Sanpi obviously didn't think so, just now when he saw Luo Ying sneering at them, he felt a little unhappy, but he could only endure it. He said: "Big brother, when you enter the bandits' den, how can you only pursue miscellaneous work, of course, you have to fight for fame, wouldn't you be happy." ”

"Second brother, but we don't have any skills, how can we be looked down on by them. ”

"Third brother, you don't have to worry, although we don't have a skill, we don't have the ability to fight with people. But if you know some things, you can run errands for them, look at the wind or something, and there will always be a place for them. Sanpi was still worried when he saw Du Xiaosan, and had no choice but to comfort him.

"Hmph... Do you think anyone in the Black Wind Village is willing to accept it! People don't raise idlers. Luo Ying snorted coldly and scoffed at Sanpi's words.

Sanpi has long been a little unaccustomed to this junior, but because his father has a life-saving grace for him, it is difficult to embarrass him, so he has to endure it. But the other party ridiculed him again and again, and when he could bear it, he said unceremoniously: "I said Brother Luo! You are still young, but you can't look down on people just because you have such ability." ”

"Why, I don't like to hear it, but I'm telling the truth..."

Wang Baoshan saw that there was some conflict in their words, and he was afraid of hurting the harmony, so he said: "Second brother, we are thanks to the help of Brother Luo all the way, otherwise where can we come here so quickly and smoothly, we must not hurt the harmony." ”

"Big brother, you can't be too honest! You see what we should do in a hurry, for everyone's sake, he doesn't discuss together, but he talks cool things on the side, it's really annoying. Sanpi listened to Wang Baoshan's words and complained a little.

"Brother Luo, what you said is right. I don't know if you have any good advice, but your father asked you to come with us, and he didn't say anything to you. Du Xiaosan saw that Luo Ying had been indifferent, and he must have been self-controlled, so he asked him.

Luo Ying listened, but did not answer, but stood up and walked towards the river next to him. didn't care about Du Xiaosan, who looked embarrassed behind him.

Looking at Luo Ying's back, I can't wait to teach a lesson to this young and frivolous teenager. I can't be angry, but I can't really do that.

He wanted to see how this wild child who grew up in the deep mountains and old forests could enter the Black Wind Village.

"Big brother, second brother, you are all locals, how much do you know about this Black Wind Village?" Du Xiaosan was also a little angry by Luo Ying, but he was a scholar who traveled here, and as a foreigner, it was not easy to say anything, not to mention that the other party was still a teenager.

"Third brother, eldest brother, I have been chopping wood in the mountains, and I don't know much about these things, so I'm ashamed!" Wang Baoshan is still good to Du Xiaosan, and he has a lot of courtesy, after all, people are scholars.

When Sanpi heard Du Xiaosan ask, he withdrew his eyes from Luo Ying and said, "Big brother, third brother, I grew up in the city when I was a child, and I have a lot of contact with people, and I know a little bit about some things. ”

"That's the best, second brother, tell us quickly, this rice porridge still needs a little time to cook, just have time to listen. Wang Baoshan heard him know and became interested.

"I've heard people say before that the Black Wind Village is in the depths of the Black Wind Ridge, and outsiders generally don't know the specific location. It is said that there is a gold mine hidden under the ground...... "Sanpi looked at the gray Black Wind Ridge, and there was a trace of fiery color in his eyes.

Then, he told everyone about the legend in the Black Wind Ridge.

Sanpi has lived in Guanping City since he was a child, and has been in the streets and alleys all year round, and has come into contact with all kinds of people, and of course he has heard a lot of things.

As far as he knew, this Black Wind Ridge had rumors of poor mountains and bad waters since ancient times, and although the scenery was different from the mountains in other places, there was nothing else special, that is, a larger barren mountain range. I don't know how many years ago, a man found gold in it, and the location was so secret that no one could explore it except for himself. Since this person is also a rich and powerful person, there is no way for others to hit his attention.

As the saying goes, greed is insatiable, and people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants. In order to enjoy the underground gold mountain for himself, this person was afraid that others would know about it and come to rob it, so he moved his family in. Moreover, in the depths that outsiders can't explore, a manor was built, and that is not the Black Wind Village.

and forbade his family and his servants from going out, lest they be discovered, and from that time forth they never came out again.

There is only so much that ordinary people know, and outsiders don't know what he did in it. Some people went in and searched for it, but found nothing. After some people go in, they never come out, they don't know whether they live or die, and they disappear without a trace. But the more this happens, the more it arouses people's curiosity to look for gold.

Until two years ago, the current Heifeng Zhuang advocated Beidou and led a group of brothers, but successfully entered the depths of the Black Wind Ridge and found Heifeng Village. And occupied the manor by force, and since then occupied the mountain as the king, using this place as a base, and also threatened that if anyone enters the Black Wind Ridge without permission to find gold mines in the future, he will be caught in the village to feed the dogs, which frightened many people away for a while.

This Zhuang advocated that Beidou was also a fierce man, with countless fierce generals, and had led hundreds of brothers to destroy a large village in the north of the city. At that time, he rushed into the city unscrupulously, swaggering through the city, and even the guards in the city did not dare to stop him, and the whole was a giant bandit and strongman. Now there are no less than 500 people in the village, and there are sentry posts placed all over the Black Wind Ridge to prevent outsiders from entering.

The City Lord's Mansion had no way to take them, and due to the complex topography of the Black Wind Ridge, the guards in the city did not dare to attack. Therefore, there are many people who are being hunted down by the government, or who are desperate, come to defect. The owner of the village does not shirk, and those who come do not refuse, but there is one point, without his permission, those who go out of the mountain without permission will die, and the heavy ones will destroy the family. And most people have taken their families to the village, in order to avoid lawsuits and settle down, who would dare to disobey. Therefore, there are more people in Heifengzhuang, and its strength has gradually become stronger, and Yanran has become one of the top few forces in the territory of Guanping City.

Sanpi intermittently told what he had heard and known, so that Wang Baoshan and Du Xiaosan could be regarded as having listened comprehensively, and their interest in Heifengzhuang was even stronger.

During this period, Luo Ying didn't know what to do, but he caught a grass carp more than an inch long and came back, which was being plugged in with a tree branch at the moment, and it was roasted on top of the fire. He listened to Sanpi finish his speech while roasting the grass carp, but he didn't bother him or express any opinions.

Sanpi saw him like this, and his previous anger disappeared a lot, and he was very satisfied, feeling that he had finally regained face, so that Luo Ying, the yellow-haired boy, knew that he was not all useless, and he knew a lot of things.

"It seems that our trip this time should go more smoothly. Wang Baoshan saw that the millet porridge had been cooked, and beckoned everyone to eat it together.

Luo Ying didn't plan to eat millet porridge because he had grilled fish to eat. This makes Sanpi angry again, but greed is greedy, and it is not easy to attack, after all, how to distribute the fish that people catch by themselves, it is up to them to decide, and there is nothing they can do about him.

Wang Baoshan didn't think so, he was very satisfied when he had a mouthful of millet porridge to drink, and he only smiled at Luo Ying's behavior.

And when they had eaten supper, they fell down by the fire, and went to sleep.
