During the conversation between the three of them, they all fell asleep in a daze, and when they woke up, it was the next day, after Zheng Lin got up, he walked out of the tent and stretched his waist, but he found that there were not many people who got up, most of them were still sleeping, so he cautiously walked through the tent area, at this time the patrolling Shaolin disciples were almost time to rest, and the last group of patrol disciples quietly got into the tent to rest, Zheng Lin looked at the running half of the man not far away, and originally wanted to catch up, but in the end he held back, and sat alone by the nearby lake.

"Don't you take a little rest? Wake up so early. Footsteps sounded behind Zheng Lin, and when he heard the voice, he didn't need to look at it to know who it was, so he replied: "When you wake up, get up and sit for a while, you can't sleep anyway, senior sister, you have always gotten up so early, right?" ”

The person who came was Zheng Lin's senior sister Ling Luoxuan, who sat next to him, smiled, and said: "Yes, following the master, I have developed a good habit of getting up early, and I always read and run every day, but it is rare to come out once, and I am lazy." By the way, your day in the Pure Yang Palace is coming, I heard that you want to go to the Five Poisons Sect next, and it is really not peaceful there, and there are differences within them. ”

Zheng Lin nodded: "I know, it's just that I have a reason to go, as for Senior Sister, don't you really consider joining Drunken Rain Talk Zen?" ”

"What? They asked you to be a lobbyist? Little junior brother, I have been in the Pure Yang Palace for decades, and I have a deep relationship with the master and other disciples, I can't leave the master for the time being, let's talk about it later, if I want to go down the mountain one day, I will definitely go to the drunken rain to talk about it first, how about it? Okay, let's not talk about me, let's get up and get back to work, let's go wash up. ”

Zheng Lin was helpless about Ling Luoxuan's answer, he couldn't force his senior sister to join the gang, so he had to listen to her, go wash first, the people who prepared breakfast got up early, and when the disciples who were transporting stones and logging got up, he let them eat something first, and they were about to start today's work.

Zheng Lin and the Badao and the beggar gang disciples can also talk because of yesterday's events, and there are also talking and laughing along the way, so it's not lively, after arriving at the place where the logging was done yesterday, the Badao and the Chunyang disciples are ready to start logging, still like yesterday, but when they just loaded the wood for the first trip, suddenly a group of people came out of the forest, those people were wearing gray robes, carrying long knives on their shoulders, and the leader walked forward.

"Who are you? I saw you logging yesterday, and you dare to come today, do you know that this is our territory? ”

Seeing this, I don't know who asked, "Who are you?" ”

The leader looked at it and said, "We are the disciples of the valley lord of the Long Snake Valley, this is our territory, what is the reason for cutting down trees without permission?" ”

The two sides argued for a while, but Ba Dao and the Pure Yang disciples didn't know much about this place, and they didn't know whether what those people said was true or false, so they had to leave this place temporarily and go back first. After going back, Zheng Lin and others told Xuan Ku about it, and Xuan Ku found Fan Yang, after hearing about it, Fan Yang was a little embarrassed and said: "Blame me for this matter, I forgot to talk to the valley lord of Long Snake Valley, so I had a misunderstanding, and I didn't think of this stubble at first, so I went and talked to them, it should be fine." ”

So Fan Yang first went to find the leader of Tiance Mansion to help, and wanted to find a few disciples of Tiance Mansion to accompany him, the leader of Tiance Mansion this time was the general who originally guarded the main gate of Tiance Mansion, Mu Jin, because most of the soldiers of Tiance Mansion were outside the war, as a general defending the city, he was naturally obliged to come to the refugees of the Tang Dynasty, so he asked the general for instructions to come to disaster relief, when Fan Yang found him, he was teaching some survival knowledge to the refugees, and the accompanying disciple whispered a word in his ear, and he got up and came to Fan Yang.

When Fan Yang saw him, he was still a little surprised, Mu Jin didn't look very old, his face still looked very immature, and he was gentle and liked to smile, it was difficult to confuse him with the generals who fought all year round, and the age seemed to be only about twenty, Fan Yang never thought that he would be the general of Tiance Mansion guarding the city, but he still arched his hand at him and said: "General Mu, I came here this time to ask the soldiers of Tiance Mansion to do a small favor." ”

So Fan Yang told Mu Jin the ins and outs of the future, and the latter didn't think about it, so he said: "Of course you can, we are willing to help with these little things, so let's do it, I will go with you in person to meet this valley lord of Long Snake Valley for a while, and by the way, I will bring twenty more soldiers, I think we will go as the imperial court, they should agree, I will arrange it." ”

At that moment, Mu Jin selected twenty disciples of Tiance Mansion, put on armor, rode war horses, and went with them, the Long Snake Valley is located about fifty miles southwest of Chang'an City, they were a group of twenty-two people, and they almost ran for a long time on horseback, and after informing the guards outside the Long Snake Valley of their intentions, the group followed the guards into the Long Snake Valley.

Along the way, Mu Jin carefully observed the guards of the Long Snake Valley, there was a team of dozens of people at the entrance, and further inside, there were three people for posts every 100 meters, and after entering the Inner Valley, the guards were even more strict, almost ten steps away, even when he arrived at the place where the Inner Valley of the Long Snake Valley lived, he could also see a lot of patrolling guards, which made him a little surprised, just the guards, there were almost hundreds of people, this is not counting the elite of the Inner Valley, for a while, he had a lot of interest in this valley master.

And according to Fan Yang's explanation, this Long Snake Valley force also belongs to the green forest rivers and lakes forces, they do not confront the imperial court, but they also do not interact with the imperial court, sometimes they will even rob merchants, but sometimes they will help the people, it is really difficult to locate their intentions. After a while, the guards came to inform Fan Yang that he could meet the valley lord, but except for him and Mu Jin, the other soldiers had to stay outside the temple, and Mu Jin had to hand over his weapons to them for safekeeping and enter empty-handed.

Fan Yang glanced at Mu Jin, Mu Jin smiled, and handed over his spear to a Tiance Mansion soldier next to him, and accompanied Fan Yang into the hall of the valley lord of the Long Snake Valley. ”

Fan Yang looked at Mu Jin and said: "This official is the envoy of the Pingxiang Festival, I think you have also heard about the influx of refugees in Chang'an City, we need a large amount of timber to build a refugee camp now, so I went to your territory to cut down some timber, but this matter was forgotten to discuss with the valley owner in advance, and accidentally caused some friction with Guigu, so this official came to discuss with the valley owner, hoping that Guigu can make it convenient." ”。

After hearing this, Yan Changfeng smiled: "I see, but since the two adults are here, it is better to drink some wine first, now it is lunchtime, after we have eaten and drunk enough, we will discuss again." ”

Looking at Yan Changfeng's appearance, Fan Yang and Mu Jin knew that this discussion might not be too easy, so they had to eat first and then find a way.
