Chapter 136: Heading to the Yin Miao Sect
"Brother Xu, look at you like that, if Sister Ziyi comes over in person, will you ignore me?" Wu Ling'er pouted, and her words had a strong sour taste.
"Ling'er, where do you want to go!" Xu Gang said with a smile.
"Hmph, ignore you, I'm leaving." Wu Ling'er stomped her foot, glanced at Xu Gang, and prepared to leave.
"Ling'er, it's really not what you think!" Xu Gang grabbed him and quickly explained that the affairs of the detective army are secret, and there are regulations in the army that even close relatives cannot say.
"Poof~~ Brother Xu, I'm just teasing you! Before I came back, I told Master that I wanted to go back. When I'm done visiting Master, I'll come back to you!" Wu Ling'er smiled.
"By the way, Ling'er, is your sect in Luzhou?" Xu Gang asked suddenly.
"Didn't you already know? Why still ask! Wu Ling'er looked at Xu Gang with some confusion and nodded silently.
"Luo Yi, Yan Yi, Wu Man, Luo Shi, Ghost Lord...... Do you know where these Yi tribes are located? By the way, especially the Luo Yi people! Xu Gang said more than twenty Yi clans in one breath, and then looked at Wu Ling'er expectantly.
"Yes! I've been following Master's tribes since I was a child, what's wrong? Wu Ling'er blinked her big eyes, and then suddenly changed into a clear expression: "Oh~~~ Do you want to attack them, Brother Xu?" ”
Xu Gang shook his head slightly, sighed lightly and said: "This time, the beggar brother of the Luoyi barbarian tribe in Dingzhou rebelled and killed so many people, if he is not caught, this war will not be considered a victory!" ”
"Brother Beggar, I've heard that he is very prestigious among the barbarians in Dingzhou and even in the entire Luzhou, now that he has run away, it is very difficult to catch him again! He just needs to hide in the mountains casually, Brother Xu, how many people do you have to send to search? Wu Ling'er frowned slightly, and persuaded Xu Gang not to waste any more energy.
"Ling'er, I know it's difficult, so I want to ask you for help......," Xu Gang smiled unnaturally.
"Can I help? You mean to let our Yin Miao Sect help you search for the whereabouts of your beggar brother? Wu Ling'er asked him, pointing to her nose.
Wu Ling looked at Xu Gang, who was grinning, shook her head slightly, and said with some embarrassment: "Brother Xu, it's nothing for me to help you, I just want my master to make a move, but I'm not sure, after all, the Yin Miao Sect is also a barbarian, and it has always been discriminated against by the Han people, so ......"
"Hey, if it's really embarrassing, forget it, I'll think of other ways." Xu Gang sighed, not wanting to embarrass Wu Ling'er.
"Then I'll go back and test Master's attitude first, but don't get your hopes up too much!" Wu Ling'er didn't want Xu Gang to be disappointed, so she expressed her willingness to give it a try.
"Well, Ling'er, don't care too much, don't force it, if you can't do it, forget it!" Xu Gang was originally a temporary idea, and whether he succeeded or failed was just one more hope. After all, just like Wu Ling'er said, if the beggar brother wants to hide, he will find a deep mountain and old forest at will, and he will not be able to find him easily.
"Brother Xu! Why don't you go back with me and meet my master? Wu Ling'er's voice was a little small, and after speaking, she lowered her head, and a trace of red light flew on her face.
"Okay!" Xu Gang agreed without thinking about it, as soon as he came, he wanted to meet Wu Ling'er's master; Second, it seems more sincere to ask for each other in person.
At the beginning of summer, although there is a river breeze to caress the face, there is still a strong hot and dry breath in the coolness, and on the tactful undulating mountain road, the sound of horses' hooves is crisp and crisp, and two fast horses are panting and galloping upstream along the riverside.
The road by the river is very steep, it is a narrow path carved out of the mountainside, one side is close to the cliff, just turn your head to the other side, you can see the knife-like rock wall and the rushing river under your feet.
"Brother Xu, it's almost time to Jiang'an County!" Wu Ling'er, who was walking in the front, slowly lowered her speed, and when she turned a corner, she got off the horse, glanced around a few times, and suddenly pointed to the boundary monument on the side of the road, and shouted excitedly.
Xu Gang, who was following behind, hurriedly dismounted, stepped forward, stood beside Wu Ling'er, looked at the boundary monument on his body, and saw three big characters faintly engraved on it - "Jiang'an County".
Looking at the foot again, the Yangtze River on the edge of the cloud cliff is rolling with waves, the river is endless, and the huge waves are like clouds and snow in the sky, roaring and crashing between the cliffs, and instantly turning into a rebellious dragon, roaring and rolling into the Yangtze River.
"What a rush of the river!" Xu Gang patted the horse's back, with a faint sadness on his face.
Wu Ling'er wiped the beads of sweat on her forehead, took the water bladder and pastries from the horse, and handed them to Xu Gang: "Brother Xu, let's eat something first, I've been running for a long time!" ”
Yesterday, Xu Gang handed over the matter of Luzhou to Li Tongju, and he rushed with Wu Ling'er early this morning, because the road was difficult, it took most of the day to come to the border of Jiang'an County, and the fatigue and hardship can be imagined.
The two ate some dry food, and continued to run upstream along the Yangtze River until dusk, when they finally reached the end of the official road. Xu Gang's eyes widened suddenly, and he said with a stunned face: "Ling'er, there's no way!" ”
As Xu Gang said, after less than 200 steps forward, the cliff had already been broken, and no matter how much he searched, he couldn't find a road.
"Giggles, Brother Xu, how can there be no road, look at Jiangzhong, isn't that the road?" Wu Ling'er covered her mouth and chuckled, pointing to the rolling Yangtze River.
Xu Gang followed her fingers, his eyes fell on the turbulent and rushing river, and his eyes were full of doubts: Where is the road Ling'er said, except for the raging waves, where did the road come from, and the river is so wide and the waves are so big, even with his own light skills, he can't fly over at all.
"Ling'er, the current here is too turbulent, even if you can sail, who dares to ferry? If you use light work, the river is too wide, the waves are too big, and the water surface is difficult to focus, I really don't know where the road you are talking about? Xu Gang looked at Jiang Mian dumbfounded, sighed lightly, shook his head silently, and his brows were tightly wrinkled together.
"Brother Xu, look over there, isn't the road coming?" Wu Ling'er put her finger in front of Xu Gang's eyes and asked him to look along the direction she was pointing.
Xu Gang stared at it and said suspiciously: "Hey, it seems that there is a boat"
Before the words fell, I heard a melodious mountain song between the cliffs:
"Hey~~~
The carp floated across the three-way beach,
The beetle saw the tears rolling;
The beetles are incapable of floating across the river,
Not down the hill in Tianwan"
I saw the cliff at the foot of the mountain, slowly walking a bamboo row, there was an old man and a young man, the old man looked about fifty years old, the girl was very young, looking no more than sixteen, the two of them each held a penny, walking slowly on the turbulent river. The song came from the bamboo raft, which was bumpy and swaying in the wind and waves, but it was never overturned by the rolling river.
Ah~~ Is there really anyone who dares to hold a boat in such a hurried river, and it is such a simple bamboo row?! Xu Gang's eyes widened, looking at the bamboo row, he didn't dare to take a breath.
Where is Uncle Mo, who often ferries here? Wu Ling'er muttered to herself, hurriedly stood on the edge of the cliff, waved her hand to the two people who had never known each other at the bottom of the mountain, and shouted luckily: "Uncle, can Uncle take us for a ride, we have to cross the river."
