At midnight, a dark shadow climbed over the walls of the Jin Palace, searching through every courtyard.

When he quietly came to the gate of the courtyard where Yang Huaide and the three were being held, he found two servants guarding the door of the house, he picked up a stone and threw it into the grass, and the two servants were shocked.

One said, "Let's go, let's take a look." As soon as he walked to the grass, the masked man in black rushed behind the two of them with a blink of an eye, and tapped each of them with a folding fan, and the two of them collapsed to the ground with a "whoo", and just about to shout, the masked man in black clicked their dumb holes again, and then searched for the key on them, opened the door of the wooden house, and said, "It's me, Han Xiaoyao." Han Xiaoyao took off the mask and opened the anklet for Yang Huaide and the others.

Yang Huaide asked, "Xiaoyao, how do you know that we are here?" ”

Han Xiaoyao said: "I heard from Datong that you chased someone for a long time and didn't come back, it is estimated that you must be in danger if you are not familiar with life, and then I heard that the person you are chasing is called Gou Liuzi, who is from the Jin Palace, I guess you must be here." ”

The three of them found their weapons in the courtyard, followed Han Xiaoyao to escape from the Jin Palace, and returned to the Fortune Inn.

The next morning, the four of them discussed whether they wanted to catch the dog Liuzi to know Yang Xiu's whereabouts, and everyone observed the people entering and leaving the palace in a teahouse near the Jin Palace.

When it was almost noon, Yang Huaixing said: "The sixth son of the dog came out, it was him." ”

The four of them hurried downstairs, Liu Keshi wanted to rush over and grab the dog Liuzi, but was stopped by Yang Huaide, Yang Huaide said: "There are many people here, things will make a big fuss, follow him." ”

Gou Liuzi did not go far, and went around the palace to the alley behind. The four of them also followed, but the dog Liuzi flashed into a small door.

At this moment, more than a dozen people appeared at both ends of the alley and blocked them in the middle, and the four of them were about to rush out, and one person came out of the crowd, it was Yelu Zhongde.

Yelu Zhongde smiled and said, "Huaide, I'm helping you, why don't you say goodbye?" ”

Liu Keshi said angrily: "Since you want to help us, why did you lock us in the wooden house yesterday?" ”

Yelu Zhongde made up a lie and said: "How can this kind of thing happen, I have ordered someone to arrange for you to live in a wing room, oh, it turns out that the person who conveyed it has made a mistake, so we should not mention this matter." ”

Yelu Zhongde paused for a moment, and then said, "I have good news for you, I have found out the whereabouts of your sister, she is the head of the Zoroastrian sect in Da'an Mountain, I have prepared horses to help you rescue her, and we can set off now." ”

The three of them couldn't believe his words, so Han Xiaoyao arched his hand and said: "Chief Yelu, in Xia Han Xiaoyao, the descendants of the Han family in Shuozhou, these are my good friends, may I ask if what you said is true?" Why are you so enthusiastic about helping my friends? ”

Yelu Zhongde said: "This turned out to be a descendant of the Han family, the Han family is the Wang clan of the Great Liao Kingdom, and several generations of heroes have assisted the King of Liao, and they have been admired for a long time!" ”

Han Xiaoyao said: "You're welcome." ”

Yelu Zhongde continued: "I appreciate the righteousness and courage of several young people, eliminating harm for the people, and rescuing deceived children is also what our generation should do. ”

Han Xiaoyao said to the three of them: "I think that the head of Yelu has good intentions, it is still important to save people, and I am willing to help everyone." ”

Yang Huaide said: "Mr. Yelu sincerely helped, thank you here." ”

Yelu Zhongde led fifteen cavalry of the Black Dragon Army, and prepared four war horses for the four of them, and the group traveled in the starry night.

On the morning of the second day, they arrived at Da'an Mountain in the western suburbs of Nanjing, Liaoning, and the Dayun Guangming Temple, the headquarters of Zoroastrianism, was located on the Lotus Peak. Everyone stayed at the Lotus Inn in Yuangang Village at the bottom of the mountain.

At noon, everyone discussed how to rescue Yang Xiu and the other children while eating.

Yelu Zhongde said: "Although Zoroastrianism comes from the Western Regions, it has a great influence in Liao, there are many believers, and they are often rewarded by the imperial court, and the successive leaders are all Uighurs, all of whom are proficient in magic, and the current prime minister Xiao Fengxian believes in this religion, so the local officials dare not offend Zoroastrianism, and we may not be able to rescue Xiu'er when we go to report to the officials, so we can only rely on ourselves." ”

At this time, a shopkeeper came in, Yelu Zhongde waved his hand, and said, "Shopkeeper, I see that you are running around very diligently, come, these taels of silver are for you." ”

The shopkeeper happily took the silver and said, "Guest officer, if there is anything to order." ”

Yelu Zhongde said: "We are going to the Great Cloud Guangguang Temple to play, you can introduce us to it." ”

The shopkeeper restrained his smile and said, "Guest officer, you are from out of town!" This Dayun Guangming Temple is the headquarters of Zoroastrianism, ordinary people are not allowed to enter, the common people can go up the mountain to watch on the day of the monthly sacrifice, the terrain of Lotus Peak is dangerous, the east and west sides are dense jungles, the north is a cliff, only a road in the south can reach the Dayun Guangming Temple. ”

The shopkeeper said that it was tangible and colorful, and said: "The mountain gate is like a city gate, and after the mountain gate is the sun mound and the evil ghost forest, I heard that there will be jackals, tigers, leopards and demons and monsters at night, it is eerie and terrifying, no one dares to enter, you guys, don't go, don't lose your life." ”

Liu Keshi didn't believe it, and said: "Shopkeeper, you also listened to other people's nonsense!" You haven't been there either. ”

The shopkeeper said: "I haven't been there, but one day in the middle of the night I passed by the mountain gate, and I heard the ghosts crying and wolf howling inside, so frightened that I ran back quickly." ”

Yelu Zhongde said: "Shopkeeper, you go down first, and I will call you if there is something." ”

After the shopkeeper went down, Yang Huaide said: "Manager Yelu, Zoroastrianism is a crooked and evil way, Xiu'er must be more than lucky, we will go to rescue her tonight." ”

Liu Keshi said: "It doesn't matter what kind of demons and monsters he is, beat him all over the ground to find teeth." ”

Jerod said, "We don't know the internal situation of Zoroastrianism yet, so let's go and explore the way tonight." ”

In the evening, everyone masked and changed into night clothes, and Yelu Zhongde led ten Black Dragoon cavalry. Everyone soon came to the grove in front of the mountain gate, by the moonlight, everyone was taken aback, this mountain gate is like a city, more than 50 meters long, more than 10 meters high city wall, in the middle is a closed city gate, the plaque reads "Guangming Gate", there are several figures on the city wall shaking.

Yang Huaide said: "Huaixing and I went up to subdue those people. ”

Han Xiaoyao shook the folding fan and said, "Don't forget me, sneak attacks are what I am best at." ”

Yang Huaide nodded and said, "The three of us went up from different positions to subdue these people separately. ”

The three of them saw the opportunity to run under the city wall, Yang Huaide and Yang Huaixing threw their flying claws to the head of the city, and the dragon pear flower spear on their backs swayed up.

Han Xiaoyao climbed the rock with two daggers in his hands, and his body was as light as a swallow.

The three of them dodged left and right, Yang Huaide and Yang Huaixing directly stunned a few people with the dragon pear flower gun, and Han Xiaoyao attacked him from behind to stun him, and when someone faced him, he threw a stone to make him turn around, and then attacked again.

A few people on the city wall were quickly subdued like eagles catching chickens for the three of them.

The three of them crept down the city wall and found a room next to it with the door open, the figure swaying in the window, and four people drinking and eating.

Han Xiaoyao rolled his eyes and said, "You two are waiting here, watching me." ”

I saw him lightly touch the door, push the door in, and saw the figure on the window flickering, and then heard Han Xiaoyao shouting, "You can come in." ”

When the two entered the house, they saw that the four of them were already lying on the table, and they couldn't help but admire: "Brother Xiaoyao's phantom magic skill is really powerful, and there is no trace of it." ”

Han Xiaoyao shook the folding fan and smiled: "It's just a small skill of carving insects." ”

The three of them opened the gate and let everyone in, and Jerod said, "You are all with special skills, and you are really terrible! The terrain here is dangerous, I will lead people to guard this place, and you continue to probe forward, and return if there is danger. ”

The four of them continued to move forward, there were steep slopes on both sides, the trees were thick, they walked more than 100 meters, the stone mounds were full of gravel in front of them, the stone mounds were more than one person high, there were bamboo poles inserted on them, the white cloth strips on the bamboo poles fluttered in the wind, and some of the stone mounds were still bubbling with blue flames, and the flames could fly around in the air.

The scalps of the four of them suddenly went numb, could it be that this is the underworld and hell? Could the flame be a ghost flying out of the grave?

The four of them approached together, and the road split into three paths.

Liu Keshi said: "We go in the middle, and we shouldn't get lost if we walk in a straight line." ”

After walking more than ten meters, the road under his feet was divided into three, and he couldn't go straight if he wanted to, and the four of them turned left and right and didn't know the direction.

Suddenly, the green light flashed in the distance, and then there was the sound of wolf howling, closer and closer, more and more, as the saying goes, the tiger can't beat the wolves, not to mention getting lost again, and the four of them are nervous.

At this time, a masked black-clothed man wearing a red cloak appeared in front of them and said, "Follow me." The four of them didn't think much about it, and followed the man in black out of the Sun Tomb, and the man ran for more than a hundred meters without stopping, flashed into a forest and disappeared.

The four of them stopped and saw a broken stone tablet on the side of the road, which read "Evil Ghost Forest". I saw that there were tattered clothes hanging on every tree, dangling around, and the leaves "rattled" like hanging ghosts, which made people's hearts beat.

Yang Huaixing's eyes widened, raised his eyebrows, and said: "This is the haunted place that the shopkeeper said, in order to save Xiu'er, there are ghosts who have to go in." ”

Yang Huaixing held the dragon pear flower spear and walked in the front, and just walked into the woods not far away, there was a miserable ghost cry all around.

Suddenly, two white ghosts jumped out from behind a big tree, howling and raising a long knife to cut at Yang Huaixing, Yang Huaixing was so scared, he still blocked left and right, swept a stick, and the two white ghosts jumped behind the tree and disappeared, Yang Huaixing's heart jumped, thinking that this is a ghost?

At this time, another white ghost jumped out, stretching out its long red tongue, still bleeding, grabbing the internal organs of the person in his hands, and shouting: "Give me back my life." Smashed the internal organs at Yang Huaide, Yang Huaide fell to the ground with a gun, a foul smell made people sick, and the four of them held their breath and walked forward.

Suddenly, a big tree "whoosh" sounded, as soon as the branches parted, a white ghost flew towards Liu Keshi, Liu Keshi shouted, a knife slashed over, the white ghost corpse was split in half, blood sprayed him, he wiped the blood off his face, looked down, it turned out to be a scarecrow.

Yang Huaide shouted: "Don't be afraid, it's nothing remarkable." "Brandishing the dragon pear flower spear and rushing to the front.

After walking for a while, nothing happened.

Suddenly, a tomb appeared in front of it, and white bones were scattered around it, and the tomb suddenly split in half, and a puff of white smoke came out, and a red-haired ghost jumped out and howled, saying, "Get down on your knees and beg for mercy, or you will be burned alive." ”

The four of them had never seen such a terrible thing when they were so old, and they were already numb with fright, and the four of them shouted: "Come on, we are not afraid." ”

The red-haired ghost screamed, "Don't die boy, go die!" ”

After speaking, I saw him spit out the fire snake in his mouth, and threw the thunderbolt between his fingers at the four people, Yang Huaide and Yang Huaixing brandished the dragon pear flower gun to shoot down some projectiles, but there were still some thunderbolts on the body, and suddenly the flames on the ground and on the body were scattered, and the four people panicked, dodging and slapping the flames on their bodies.

At this critical juncture, the man in black flew out of the woods, wielding his red cloak to shoot down the flying thunderbolts, but the cloak would not catch fire.

The man in black said, "Get out of the woods, you're no match for him." ”

The four of them turned around and ran back, the man in black blocked the flying thunderbolts behind them, and the sound of evil ghosts crying echoed in the woods, which was terrifying, and the four of them desperately ran back, as if there were really ghosts chasing behind.

The man in black thought it was ridiculous and shouted, "Don't run, no ghosts are chasing you." ”

The four of them stopped, and the man in black said, "After entering the Sun Tomb, you can go out by walking along the stone mound with wooden poles." With that, he turned and disappeared into the woods.

The four of them were thrilled and rested on a large rock.

After a while, the mood gradually calmed down, looking at each other, their faces and bodies were covered with blood, their clothes were also blackened, and they still smelled, and everyone couldn't help laughing.

Yang Huaide said: "I didn't expect the demons and monsters to be quite powerful, and I was scared to death!" ”

Liu Keshi said: "I thought the knife was a scarecrow, and it sprayed me with blood!" ”

Han Xiaoyao has been following behind, his light skills are good, his body is quite clean, he shook the folding fan and said: "Haha, demons and monsters are nothing more than that, I think they are all tricks of the rivers and lakes, and they can't hurt us." ”

Yang Huaide said: "Let's get out of here quickly and go back and find another way." ”

The four of them walked quickly to the sun mound, because when they came, the wolves were all lured out, and the green light flickered, and when they saw the four approaching, they screamed and pounced on the four of them.

Yang Huaide and Yang Huaixing defeated the oncoming wolf in front, and ran all the way along the stone mound where the wooden pole was inserted, and the four of them ran out of the stone mound, but the wolves chased after them, and the four of them continued to run towards the Guangming Gate.

Suddenly, someone in front of him shouted, "Everyone get out of the way, these wolves are handed over to us." ”

The person who spoke was Yelu Zhongde, who led ten black dragon troops to line up, bent their bows and arrows, and "swished", more than a dozen wolves fell in response, and the other wolves fled in panic.

Seeing that the four were dressed in dirty clothes and stained with blood, Jerod Zhongde asked, "Are you seriously injured?" ”

Yang Huaide replied: "Manager Yelu, don't worry, we are all fine, and I will explain to you when I go back." Everyone left Lotus Peak and returned to the inn.
