Chapter 57: Mountain Harrier Predation

"The white dragon blesses, God opens his eyes, and our group of people can live out of the foothold, otherwise the white hemp will be wrapped around the head, and every household will cry, and even a corpse will not be found when it is dead. Come on, come, worship, worship the white dragon in the world, and protect the people! ”

As soon as someone shouted, everyone immediately responded, and they all crowded onto the head of the boat, and they didn't care about the danger of the wind and waves, and they lined up to bow down. However, what is very funny is that they are chattering and saying everything: worship the Buddha, worship the Taoist, worship the witch god, worship the heavenly master, in the small cabin, you can see the wide range of beliefs in the world, which is also one of the characteristics of the Chinese people.

Perhaps it was really a bit of luck, and after hanging the foot, the rain gradually stopped, and even several dangerous shoals were passed safely, and since then the river has been calm and there are no more bumps.

The girl returned to the cabin, and the man whispered for a while, and the man showed his card, surnamed Zong, Mingyu, originally belonged to the Taishou Mansion of Linchuan County, and then ordered a few entourages to inquire in detail about the names and origins of everyone in the boat, saying that they had met Bailong Xiangrui, and there would be a heavy reward after reporting to the Assassin Mansion.

Xiangrui This kind of thing, even the common people know that it is most in line with the above intentions, and they do not forget to add relatives and neighbors when they report their names. According to the last statistics, except for Xu Youqing and the two, there were a total of 23 people on the boat, but there were as many as 35 people registered.

Again, this is a feature!

Xu You looked at the demeanor of Zong Yu and others, the spirit of the rivers and lakes was better than the slippery of the officials in the yamen, although the cards did not look like forgery, but people may not be too guarded, and Qingming stood at the head of the boat, watching coldly, and was silent. The girl looked up at Xu You, stretched out her hand to stop the entourage who wanted to come over to inquire about the situation, walked to the front, hugged her fists and saluted, and said, "I know that Langjun is very human, if you don't want to leave your name, it will be inconvenient and reluctant." It's just that the white dragon is in the world, and it all depends on the merits of your subordinates, and the court will have a great reward......"

Xu You refused with a smile and said, "The talisman of the order, the response of heaven and man, the white dragon is the sage talisman of the talisman, what does it have to do with my generation?" If the court rewards, the girls will be rewarded! ”

This sounds serious, but when you think about it, it is a little unserious. The girl wiped a faint shame in her eyes, didn't talk to Xu You, and turned to leave after saluting again.

Before nightfall, I went to Hekou Town, said goodbye to He Laojiu, and went ashore to find a rest on the reverse journey. Early the next morning, he continued to move forward by boat, and by coincidence, he met the girl again. In fact, it can't be said to be too coincidental, there are not many people like them who rushed so early, and there are not many ships sent to Geyang.

Zong Yu glanced at the girl meaningfully, smiled at the corner of his lips, and hugged Xu You's fist. Xu You returned the courtesy, and the two sides passed by, without talking, and each went to the cabin to take a seat.

This ship is a two-story bream, the bottom is loaded, the upper deck is manned, and it is divided into eight cabins, which do not interfere with each other, compared to He Laojiu's ship, the environment is much better.

Xu You closed his eyes and recuperated, sank into a steady place, didn't even eat lunch, and when he arrived, the boat arrived in Geyang County, he walked to the railing outside the cabin, only to see the graceful back of the girl walking past the gangplank, and then looked back at the sunset, and then got up and landed.

Since the beginning of Shangrao, it has reached the boundary of Jiangzhou, which belongs to the Jiangyou people's department, the deeper the dialect taste, the stronger the taste, almost can't understand what others say, even guessing with Meng, can only understand one or two percent, like a chicken and duck talking, talking to themselves.

Xu You and Qingming, the two little masters, were both at the level of pedantic celestials, but they were stumped by Ge Yangyu. It took half an hour to ask for directions, and I haven't left Geyang County, let alone found the mountain road to Linchuan.

In the end, I simply found a restaurant that looked fairly clean, and asked the waiter to recommend the dishes, but the result was either too spicy or too sweet. I barely dealt with it, and when I checked out, I took a hundred dollars and threw it to the waiter, and the excess was used as a reward, and I asked him how to go over the mountain to Linchuan.

The waiter was overjoyed to get the money, he knew a little bit of official language, and he was very enthusiastic about the comparison for a long time, which made Xu You and the others even more confused. Walking out of the restaurant, Xu You laughed and said, "If we get lost because of this, will it become a joke in Jiangdong in the future?" ”

"Lang Jun is a celebrity, this is just an anecdote, not a joke!"

"You're getting better at talking!"

Xu You was about to joke, when he suddenly heard someone behind him ask: "Are the two Langjun going to Linchuan?" ”

Looking back, there was a person standing seven or eight steps away, with a medium stature, a Chinese face, dark skin, thick eyebrows and big eyes, giving people a special sense of righteousness, his eyes were sincere, and he was polite and thoughtful, and said: "Don't bother!" I just listened to the two of you in the restaurant, and it seems that you are inquiring about the mountain road to Linchuan? I am a merchant who often walks this road, surnamed Chen Mingjing, and my family lives in Linchuan County, selling some mountain goods to the surrounding counties. Ge Yang, I came yesterday, and the goods are all out of hand," he patted the rucksack made of leather, and the sound of copper coins colliding could be heard inside, revealing a sincere smile, "No, I made a little money, and I was worried that it would not be safe for me to walk alone, so I wanted to be with the two Lang Jun......"

In recent years, the land and water routes have not been very peaceful, and it is common to walk together, but Xu You thought with his ass that this person came uninvited, either treacherous or thief, it is very likely that he just made a fortune in the restaurant, which attracted the covetousness of people with other intentions, but he smiled quietly on his face: "That dare is good, but we have to rush to the night, I don't know ......how to drive."

"Night Road?"

Chen Jing hesitated, gritted his teeth, and said, "If it weren't for the fact that the two Lang Jun are good people, I really wouldn't dare to walk the mountain road at night." I heard that there are monsters in the mountains, so they rob pedestrians at night, dig out their livers, and even boil their bones in soup......"

This is really self-defeating, what kind of innocent businessman would join forces with a stranger who only has a one-sided relationship to go on a night trip? Are you afraid that the money in your pocket will be too easy to earn?

It's never a monster that robs pedestrians at night!

"There's a monster?" Xu You was surprised: "Then forget it, wait until tomorrow, and then find more people to go with you......"

Chen Jing was annoyed when he saw that it was self-defeating, and hurriedly remedied: "I just heard that no one has ever seen a real monster. Please rest assured, I have walked many times on the night road on the mountain, and nothing has gone wrong. ”

"Huh? Are you also on the road at night? ”

Looking at the voice, there were still those familiar faces, Zong Yu pretended not to know, Xu You smiled and said nothing, to see how he was bad. Chen Jing's eyes lit up slightly, and he said, "Yes, what about you?" ”

"In Xia Li Xingzhu, a native of Xin'an, I am in a hurry to go to the elegant gathering of a friend in Linchuan, so I want to rush overnight, and I just heard the conversation between the two, I don't know if I can go with a cheeky face?"

Zong Yu was still a wandering Jianghu before, but this will be more than enough to be a gentleman, a serious person, and pretending to be a literati.

Chen Jing was overjoyed and said: "The road is uneven at night, it is always a good thing to have a few more people." The villain Chen Jing, who lives in Linchuan, oh, this? He turned to Xu You, and Xu You smiled: "In Xia Huanghua, Yongjia people, go to Linchuan to find relatives!" ”

The girl stood behind Zong Yu and heard Xu You speak, her eyes were slightly rippling, and she regained her calm in an instant. At the moment, Zong Yu deliberately accosted Chen Jing and walked in front, Xu You was two steps behind, the girl chased to the side, and said in a low voice: "Do you know who Chen Jing is?" How dare you walk with him over the mountains? Don't you want to die? ”

"The girl recognizes him?"

"I don't know this man, but I know his means." The girl looked at Xu You sideways, and saw that his expression was calm and indifferent, and a little inexplicable annoyance suddenly appeared between her eyebrows, and said, "It turns out that Lang Jun has already seen through the identity of the thief, and I am troubled!" ”

"Hey! Don't mind......"

Xu You subconsciously reached out and grabbed her sleeve. The girl turned her head suddenly, the corner of the cyan skirt was lifted, her eyes were as clear as snow, and her entourage changed color at the same time, looking at Xu You's eyes full of pity.

Xu You let go of his snees and said, "I just think he has bad intentions, and I don't know the details, and I hope the girl will make it clear!" ”

The girl was silent, the atmosphere was awkward for a while, and even Xu You thought she was going to hit someone, but she suddenly turned her head, and the roots of her ears seemed to be crimson, which made the few entourages who were watching the show almost break their eyes.

"The mountain of Geyang is called 100,000 Pan Snake Mountain, the mountain is steep and steep, stretching for hundreds of miles, plus poisonous snakes are everywhere, as well as wolves and wild dolphins, it is very difficult to walk. There are seven or eight bandits entrenched in the mountains all the year round, and from time to time they come out to rob the lonely merchants, and the latecomers have learned a lesson, and many of them are in groups, and the momentum is huge, and the thieves see that they can't succeed, so they send the mountain harriers to the various anti-brigade restaurants and docks in the city, specifically looking for foreign visitors like you, who are harmless to people and animals, but have a lot of money, and lure them to cross the mountain, and then fall into their traps......"

"Mountain Harrier?"

"People like Chen Jing are mountain harriers, who are specially designed to spy on thieves and select fat sheep."

Xu You, who was regarded as a fat sheep, didn't feel ashamed at all, and asked with interest: "Why don't you directly reveal his identity, why do you do so much?" ”

"My family...... Taishou has long wanted to clear these bandits, but he has never been able to find their lair, and he has sent troops many times in vain. ”

The girl paused and said, "Your part is certainly powerful, but you don't know martial arts, and participating in it will not only help, but will add danger." If you weren't in a hurry, you wouldn't have to wade into this troubled water......"

"Thank you for your kindness!" Xu You smiled: "But I see what Zong Langjun means, and I seem to be very happy to have me with me." ”

Zong Yu wanted to use Qingming's force, but he would not care about Xu You's life or death, this girl looked cold, but she was actually kind. However, Xu You really didn't have time to delay when he came, and he needed someone to lead the way at night; Second, I also have the heart to help this girl, so that she helped when she was still on the boat to save people.

Seeing that he didn't know what to do, the girl quickened her pace, chased after Zong Yu, and said coldly: "If you are not afraid of death, then follow along!" ”
