Chapter Ninety-Three: Arabian Nights

said that it was too late, Wei Ziyang's body was as agile as an ape, and at the moment when Li Dali was about to fall, he flew away with an arrow, and grabbed Li Dali's hand fiercely with both hands like claws.

Although he caught Li Dali, it was difficult to stop the inertia of falling, and after pulling Li Dali, he was also taken off the cliff by that force, and he was about to die.

Between the lightning and flint, Li Dali suddenly pulled out the short knife he was carrying, pulled Li Dali tightly with his right hand, and thrust the big knife into the ground with his left hand, only to hear a "ding" sound, the short knife was actually inserted into the rock alive, stuck on the ground, preventing Wei Ziyang and Li Dali from falling downward.

All this happened within a few breaths, and when the soldiers had come to their senses, Wei Ziyang and Li Dali were already safe and sound.

Wei Ziyang pulled up the frightened Li Dali, patted the dust on his body, and lightly ordered: "Be careful in the future, don't throw your life in such a place." ”

When Li Dali heard this, he was slightly embarrassed, but more moved, and opened his mouth to say something, but was stopped by Wei Ziyang.

Wei Ziyang's expression was grim, and he waved his hand and said, "Don't say thank you for now, we have to hurry up and cross this Heishui Mountain." ”

Wei Ziyang is an understanding person, of course he knows that there are many people in this army who are not convinced, after all, these soldiers of the Pingxi Army are all veterans of a hundred battles, and they are all the elites of the Great Wei, and they have made great achievements on the battlefield, so they will be selected to stay in the Pingxi Army. And he is just a farmer, but he only relied on fighting a vicious tiger, and with a backer like King Xiang behind him, he climbed to the position of captain.

In the eyes of the soldiers, his behavior can be described as a person who "walks in relationships". Speaking with strength in the Pingxi army, of course, his behavior will be criticized by everyone and cause dissatisfaction from everyone. Although he showed his hand to everyone in the army to "carry stones and walk", but with this little trick alone, it is far from enough to gain the trust of everyone in the Pingxi Army.

But the act of saving people just now really added a lot of impression points to Wei Ziyang.

What is most important in the military? It's iron and blood, and it's also tender.

As a qualified general, you must not only have a ruthless, cruel and resolute heart, but also have a red blood and noble virtue. In addition to a general's own talent, it is more important to win the hearts of the people.

Whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world, this is a truth since ancient times.

After those soldiers saw Wei Ziyang's act of sacrificing their lives to save people, their perception of Wei Ziyang also changed in their hearts. I thought this was just a person who walked in relationships, but I didn't expect to be able to do such a righteous move.

The soldiers not only admired Wei Ziyang's enthusiastic behavior, but also were surprised by Wei Ziyang's hand and body that Wei Ziyang had just revealed.

Of course, Wei Ziyang could quietly sense that the eyes of the surrounding generals had also changed slightly, and although he was happy in his heart, he was silent on the surface.

After all, the most important thing at the moment is to climb over this Heishui Mountain and go around to the back of Natong Pass.

Hundreds of soldiers slowly walked between the steep valleys at turtle speed, with the incident that happened to Li Dali just now, everyone really didn't dare to take it lightly, and they all started their spirits, for fear that if they were not careful, they would make the same move as Li Dali.

You know, Li Dali was saved by Wei Ziyang just now, but Wei Ziyang can save one, can he save the second?

Everyone walked for a while, and finally they were about to reach the top of Heishui Mountain, but before they arrived, Wei Ziyang vaguely saw a figure shaking faintly on the top of the mountain, and he was shocked at the moment, so he hurriedly raised his hand and signaled the whole army to stop advancing.

Wei Ziyang was very puzzled, didn't Mei Jingting keep saying that there was no Qin army ambush on this Heishui Mountain? But what is the matter with seeing this faint figure now?

I was a little worried in my heart, and after thinking for a while, I finally made up my mind.

Wei Ziyang whispered to a few soldiers nearby: "Wait and follow me to see, who is on the mountain?" ”

The few soldiers who were ordered, you look at me, I look at you, after all, they nodded, and followed Wei Ziyang to touch it slowly.

Near the top of the mountain, there is a very narrow dirt road, the road is very muddy, on one side of the road is overgrown with thorny jungle, on the other side is a bottomless mountain stream and valley, if a stray fall down this mountain stream, it will definitely be nine deaths.

Wei Ziyang saw the situation in front of him, swallowed his saliva, and no longer hesitated, he was the first to take the first step, walked up the narrow dirt road, and touched the mountain, while the rest of the soldiers followed closely behind him, holding their weapons in their hands, revealing the appearance of a great enemy.

The winter wind struck, and everyone couldn't help but shiver, and it also stimulated their uneasy hearts.

Walking through the dirt road, Wei Ziyang could finally see the figure on the hill vaguely.

It was obviously a level, the level was dominated by a wooden fence, and next to it was a deep stone cave, the stone cave was very deep, and you couldn't see anything inside, but the level was very dilapidated, the ground near the level was full of fine rubble and dead branches and leaves, and the wooden fence was also old, as if it would fall apart if you touched it lightly.

This level doesn't look like it's been newly created in recent years, but it looks like a relic from a long time ago.

Wei Ziyang looked to the side, and finally saw clearly what the figure was.

I saw that the figure was dressed in a cloth robe, holding a firewood knife in his hand, and a handful of firewood tied to his back, and it was while singing a song that he walked leisurely up the mountain.

Turned out to be a woodcutter? When Wei Ziyang saw this person's appearance, he was also puzzled in his heart.

The environment of this Heishui Mountain is harsh, the climate is not good, and it is completely unsuitable for people to live and survive. It stands to reason that no one will appear in this poor land of mountains and bad waters, but I didn't expect to see a woodcutter now.

This had to surprise Wei Ziyang.

After thinking about it, he finally waved his hand behind him and motioned for everyone to stand up straight. When everyone had moved, they paused and walked up to the woodcutter. When the soldiers in the back saw Wei Ziyang's bold move, they wanted to stop it at the moment.

Before they could remind him, Wei Ziyang turned around and shook his head, signaling them to relax, and then walked up again.

The woodcutter was singing all the way and walking slowly, but suddenly he saw a strong man in armor walking up at the bottom of the mountain, and he was also a little surprised at the moment.

When Wei Ziyang approached, he was puzzled: "Who are you?" Why did you come to Blackwater Mountain? ”

When Wei Ziyang heard this, he smiled and said lightly: "I am the general of Great Wei, and I want to climb over this Heishui Mountain." ”

When Wei Ziyang said this, he was already sure in his heart that this person would definitely not be the fine work of the Qin State, if he was really a fine work, it would definitely not be possible for only one person to haunt, there must be at least three or five people around here. But now that I see him, it looks like he's alone.

When the woodcutter heard Wei Ziyang's words, he was a little surprised, and couldn't help but show a stunned expression: "You...... Are you from Wei? ”

Wei Ziyang smiled and nodded, but did not answer.

As if he hadn't heard what Wei Ziyang said just now, the woodcutter was puzzled again: "You just said that you want to cross this Black Water Mountain?" ”

"Exactly, I don't know how far this mountain is from the foot of the mountain?" Then Wei Ziyang didn't care about the woodcutter's doubts, and asked in a deep voice.

When the woodcutter heard this, he was stunned at first, and then shook his head: "Don't think about it, you can't turn it over." ”

When Wei Ziyang heard this, he frowned: "Why can't you turn it over?" ”

When the woodcutter heard this, he paused, and then said slowly: "The entire Heishui Mountain Range, the road is rugged, and it is difficult for ordinary people to pass through at all, if you really want to pass, you need to go down from the path on this mountain, the path is not difficult to walk, but the difficult thing is the bottomless valley at the end of this path." ”

"The valley?" When Wei Ziyang heard this, he couldn't help frowning.

"Yes, there is no passage from the path to the middle of this valley, and the only way to go down the mountain is to slide down the cliff." The woodcutter explained.

"That's why I said, if you want to climb over this Black Water Mountain, it's absolutely impossible."

When Wei Ziyang heard this, he was also a little surprised in his heart, no wonder Mei Jingting said to himself before that the survival rate of walking this Heishui Mountain was less than one in ten, and it was difficult to cross this Heishui Mountain, but it was difficult to go down the mountain, especially the road to the valley.

Suddenly felt a little headache, thought about it, and asked the woodcutter again: "I don't know what happened to this dilapidated wooden fence, isn't this a checkpoint in the past?" ”

The woodcutter listened to Wei Ziyang's affectionate name, and his heart also relaxed, originally seeing this person wearing armor and holding a weapon, with a fierce and vicious look, he still felt a little worried in his heart, but now it seems that it is completely unnecessary.

After a pause, he said: "This level was set up by General Du Chong of the Great Qin State, but then I don't know what happened, it was abandoned, and now it has become what it is now." ”
