On the banks of the Weishui River, the autumn breeze is bleak. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zhu Mingyang talked with Zhang Shuo all the way, introduced Garqinling, Li Chunfeng and Gao Yanyan to Zhang Shuo, and told Zhang Shuo about his experience in Chang'an.

Zhang Shuo also couldn't imagine that in just a few days, Zhu Mingyang would create too much incredible, although he had already seen Zhu Mingyang's ability in Yuezhou.

"I don't know what Brother Zhu plans to do next!" Zhang Shuo looked at Zhu Mingyang, as if he wanted to hear the young man's thoughts.

"The tribute has fallen on Bird and Mouse Mountain, and we must find a way to go back and find the tribute as soon as possible." Zhu Mingyang replied very decisively.

"Well, Brother Zhu is really the pillar of the country, and he still thinks about the tribute." Zhang said praised.

"It's just Lord Zhang, I don't know how there are so many rats in this Bird and Mouse Mountain!" As soon as Li Chunfeng's question came out, everyone stared at Zhang Shuo, showing expectant faces.

"It's a long story, this bird and mouse mountain used to be a green mountain, the soil is fertile, and it is close to Weishui, which is convenient for irrigation. Therefore, the people of several neighboring states all moved to the Bird and Mouse Mountain, and later there were more people, so they cut down wood to make firewood, and soon the mountain became the yellow sand rolling now. Zhang Shuo shook his head helplessly.

"But what does this have to do with rats?" Gao Yanyan asked bluntly.

"That's the problem, after the people cut down the trees, the mountains became bald, the crops were not good, and the people could no longer survive here, so they all left the Bird and Mouse Mountain. After the people left, the rats began to feed on the passing pedestrians and animals without the farmer to eat, and what was even more deadly was that the animals colluded with the birds on the mountain. Zhang Shuo thought for a moment and replied.

"Birds?" Zhu Mingyang looked at Zhang with a confused face, he really couldn't figure out how to get the bird again.

"Don't worry, listen to me slowly. Due to the lack of large trees to build their nests, the birds had to lay eggs in the nests of rats, and in order to repay the rats, the birds flew into the air every day to find prey and eat them together. The rats are inside the hole, and the birds are outside the hole, each giving birth to each other, and not invading each other, presumably your team must have let these birds see it. Zhang said as he looked at the Bird and Mouse Mountain on the other side of the river.

"I see, it seems that these beasts have become the climate!" Zhu Mingyang suddenly realized when he heard Zhang say this.

"National teacher, you have traveled back and forth between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo many times, haven't you encountered such a strange thing?" Li Chunfeng suddenly thought of finding a breakthrough from the body of Garqinling.

"Every time I lead my disciples to and from Datang, I come from the path, and I don't know that there is such a strange thing!" Garchinling thought for a moment and replied.

"No matter! Now the first thing is to get the tribute back first, otherwise it will not be good if the tribute falls into the hands of others!" Gao Yanyan said bluntly.

"There's no need to worry about this, what could be better than this group of rats to help us protect the tribute!" Zhu Mingyang said slowly.

"Childe is right! We won't get the tribute, and the rest of us won't be able to get the tribute from the rats! Li Chunfeng explained.

"Our immediate priority now is to find a way to deal with this group of rats......" Zhu Mingyang looked at the riverbank and fell into deep thought.

Bird and Mouse Mountain was as quiet as ever, with a few unknown birds poking their heads out on the mountain. Several black-clothed men shuttled through the official road, and they did not realize that the danger was approaching them step by step.

"Childe, this is a tribute from the imperial court to Tubo!" A man in black pried open the box on the ground and said to Li Cheng.

"My father asked us to protect this surnamed Zhu, but unexpectedly, the surname Zhu disappeared in this barren mountain. But it's also strange that there are only a few trees on a huge mountain! Li Cheng watched the surroundings vigilantly.

"Childe, look!" Suddenly, another subordinate not far away pointed to several corpses on the ground and shouted.

Li Cheng walked over to the corpse and squatted down, taking a closer look. But when I saw that the corpse on the ground was only white bones, there was only a set of armor on the white bones. Li Cheng knew that this was a unique costume of the forbidden army, and it seemed that Zhu Mingyang's team seemed to have been ambushed here.

Looking at the corpse on the ground, Li Cheng's brows tightened, he never thought of anyone who had such a means to kill people and not even see flesh and blood, and it would only take him a day to keep up with Zhu Mingyang, and it didn't make sense to naturally corrupt in one day.

As a killer, Li Cheng has dozens of ways to kill people, but when he saw these corpses, there was actually a trace of coolness behind him.

"Tsk!" Just as Li Cheng was puzzled, the leaves began to tremble.

The men in black saw the leaves under their feet trembling, and they all stared at the ground in surprise back to back, and a breath of death permeated the real valley.

"Ahh Suddenly, a huge mouse jumped up from the ground and bit down on the leg of a man in black, who let out a cry of pain. Immediately after that, a mouse emerged from under each leaf, and the man in black panicked at the sudden scene.

"Get out of here!" Li Cheng said in horror.

Only then did the crowd calm down and retreat. Li Cheng waved the folding fan in his hand, relying on his agile body to try his best to keep the group of rats from getting close to him, but the group of subordinates couldn't avoid the group of rats. After a while, a man in black fell to the ground, only to see that the man in black who fell to the ground had not yet stood up, and his body was covered with a piece of black pressed rats, and after a while, there was no wail, only a blur of flesh and blood.

There are fewer and fewer men, but there are more and more rats. Although Li Cheng is upright and young, no matter how high your martial arts skills are in the face of this flood of rats, you will not be able to escape after all. Facing the fallen man in black, Li Cheng felt more and more powerless, and his fan-waving movements slowed down.

Suddenly, a mouse took advantage of Li Cheng's inattention and climbed up Li Cheng's body with his feet. Li Cheng was shocked, and wanted to use a fan to push the mouse away, but the other mouse was scared from the other foot and bit Li Cheng's arm fiercely, and a heart-piercing pain spread from the arm to the whole body.

After one mouse succeeded, the other rats also followed the trend, and after a while, four or five rats climbed on Li Cheng's body, leaving deep tooth marks on Li Cheng's legs, waist, and arms.

It seems that he has always been unlucky, Li Cheng thought of his father, he hadn't seen his father for a long time, and his father had been teaching himself through the curtain since he came to Yongzhou.

He remembered the scene when his father taught him martial arts when he was a child, and because he was lazy, his father hit his palm with a ring ruler. He remembered the scene when his father flew a kite with him, and how beautiful it was at that time!

"Father, children are not filial!" Li Cheng thought silently in his heart, and used his only strength to split a mouse with a folding fan, and closed his eyes in despair.

"Whoosh!" Just as Li Cheng was about to fall, a rope sleeve fell from the sky and caught Li Cheng around his waist, and then Li Cheng flew up,......
