After resting, they inquired again and again to confirm that Lian Wang Ye had not issued a wanted warrant, and Li Hao and the four of them relaxed a little before they began to explore the mountains and rivers along the way. As long as it is majestic and beautiful, it is dangerous and strange, Li Hao will not let it go, looking for those few opportunities.

The green mountains are like daisies, and the golden glow of the remnant sun is sprinkled on a small mountain peak, dyeing the green of the mountain into pieces of golden, and there are several tourists standing on the peak.

The breeze is blowing, the forests are whimpering, and the forests are lined with golden glow, which is a rare picturesque beauty.

"Alas!"

Sometimes the mountain wind is strong, and in the sound of the hunting wind in the robe, there is a soft sigh, like a cry, which is very different from this beautiful scenery.

"Senior brother, what's wrong with you?"

This sigh immediately stopped the frolicking of the two women behind him, surrounded him, and each took one of his hands on the left and the right, comforting him gently.

The woman on the left has a round face, slightly light willow eyebrows, a slightly dark complexion, a light green tight-fitting samurai shirt, and a three-foot Qingfeng hanging from her waist. The whole person looks heroic, small jasper, mediocre appearance, can only be regarded as delicate, and has nothing to do with beauty.

The woman on the right is carrying a thick-backed machete on her back, and her posture and dress are the same as the woman on the left. The only difference is that this woman's face is slightly longer, her lips are thicker, and she looks carefully, and she has a slightly ugly feeling.

If you look closer, you can see a trace of deeply hidden sadness in her eyes, as elusive and ethereal as smoke on a mountain peak.

However, the two have one thing in common, that is, they both care about this sighing man, but they don't accept anyone, like two senior sisters who compete for favor and eat tender grass.

It can also be seen that the one on the right is obviously their senior sister.

On this small peak, there were actually not only the three of them, but there was also a person in the distance behind them. He was dressed in a gray robe, without a sword, and leaned against the railing of a large tree, motionless, like a strange branch branching off, dissolving with the roots.

He just leaned there and looked at the three of them, if it weren't for the slightly clumsy and indifferent face, and the slight shaking of an eyeball from the blinking of his eyelashes, he really didn't look like a human being, or a living person, at this moment.

He just looked at the laughter of the few people in front of him so faintly, like a calm and steady senior brother who did not smile, guarding a group of naughty and naughty senior brothers and sisters.

Suddenly, his dark brow stinged slightly, and the essence of his originally indifferent eyes flashed, and in an instant he regained his calm, and once again returned to his wood carving image. And his body, from beginning to end, has not moved.

"Brother Li is just playful, I'm afraid it will be too late to go down the mountain later!"

"It doesn't matter, as long as we don't encounter robbers and others who block the road and cut the path, the ordinary jackals in the mountains and forests still can't help us."

……

A moment later, with the sound of several men's voices, three scribes dressed as scholars climbed up on the mountain path, who ran down from the main peak, and hurried down the mountain to rush home. At the speed at which they walked down the mountain, when they came down, it was really night, and the jackals, tigers and leopards in the mountains and forests came out to move, which was really a bit dangerous.

"Ah, Brother Li, wouldn't it be the path cutter you called earlier?"

A man who walked in front suddenly exclaimed, and pointed to the gray robe under a big tree by the side of the road, which fluttered in the wind, but the person did not move, and it really looked like a robber blocking the road.

"Brother Zhao, I'm cowardly, don't scare me!"

"Ah, let's run!"

A few men from behind, frail or fat, crowded over in horror and curiosity, cautiously looking at the gray shadow, and a few of the timid ones were already trembling and slowly retreating, trying to run some distance when the robbers were chasing them, and maybe they could get rid of their tracking.

Although they know that when they really meet a robber, it is impossible for them to escape easily, especially this kind of fearless appearance and cut the path, but sometimes, if they are not really caught, people always have a feeling of luck.

Their big commotion, that embarrassed appearance, caused the three people on the big rock next to the cliff to look over in surprise, and the two women were already laughing and laughing.

The young man shook his head, the corners of his mouth slightly raised. When a fat man in front of him tripped over a rolling gourd while escaping, he couldn't hold back his laughter anymore, sweeping away the melancholy he had just had.

Even the man with the wood carving under the tree, the corners of his mouth rose up, but he still didn't make a sound.

Maybe they laughed too presumptuously, maybe there was a woman's voice in the laughter, maybe they didn't scold in a rough voice, and the few people who fled back to the halfway up the mountain finally stopped running away, gathered together and looked at each other, and shrunk their necks, and kept scanning to the side with a weak heart, in case a robber suddenly came to rob the robbers.

"Brother Zhao, what should I do?"

"What to do, let's hurry up and make a detour to escape!"

"A few of them, it doesn't seem to be a robber blocking the way, let's go and ask!"

"You are dead, knowing that they may be robbers, and you still run up to send them to death, you think your life is long?"

……

The few people on the rock had excellent internal skills, and naturally listened to their voices without leaking a bit, and laughed even more happily.

A round-faced woman on the left turned around, glanced at the man, and said with a smile: "Senior brother, let's make a bet, okay?" ”

The arm she was holding in her hand still didn't let go, and both hands of the man they were caught between fell into their hands. The slightly thin pointy-faced man in the middle smiled and shook his head, as if he was uncomfortable being pulled by them like this, so he pulled his hand in, and they all let go of their hands obediently, and the speed was fast, without delay at all.

The man's sorrow seemed to have been dissipated by the wind of this mountain forest, and he was gone, and he grinned: "Senior sister, what do you want to bet on?" ”

The slightly ugly long-faced woman on the right pursed her lips and chuckled, looking at the man affectionately, without interjecting.

The round-faced woman's face was a little angry, and suddenly her eyes rolled, and she said with a smile: "Let's bet on whether they dare to pass over from this side, the bet is who will pay the junior brother tonight?" ”

As soon as the man said this, she made it clear that she was not gambling with herself, but pulling the long-faced woman who was sitting on the mountain watching the tiger fight next to her into the battle group, and pushed herself out of the gambling game.

The woman on the right also froze for a while, glanced at the two of them a few times, and said with a smile: "Then it's up to the senior sister, I bet they dare to go down the mountain from here." ”

"It doesn't count!" The round-faced woman pursed her lips, her face a little ugly, "I bet that they will only come here after a pillar of incense." ”

The man in the middle smiled and said, "That boy will bet that they won't dare to start here!" ”

The round-faced woman glared at him and said, "Go, it's none of your business!" ”

You are all betting that you want to sleep with yourself, why is it your own business, the man was taken aback, laughed, and said no more.

After thinking about it for a while, he felt as if he had suffered a loss, and interjected again: "If they don't come from here, this son will sleep alone!" ”

Suddenly, I felt that I had a companion with me, which was a little warmer, and added: "No, if my son wins, the two of them will accompany him." ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the two women turned red, and their smiles were like flowers. The long-faced woman said: "Isn't it just one night, it's not a big deal, I bet they will come up in an hour after a pillar of incense." ”

The woodcarved man under the tree flashed with light in his eyes, the corners of his mouth curved higher, and he muttered secretly: Is the effect of this son's scary effect so bad? I can assure you that they will not dare to go down from here, or it must have been more than the hour of the three pillars of incense.

At this time, the three scholars who remained halfway up the mountain turned pale with fright. The fat man's slightly bloated legs were still trembling until this time, completely different from the few people above who laughed at them and bet on their guts.

Of course, they only had time to find the gray-robed man suspected of being a robber on the side of the road in horror, and did not find the three people who were hidden by a few trees, although they heard the woman's laughter.

Except for the occasional careful glance at the nearby woods, most of the time they still kept their eyes on the peak they had just climbed, lest the few robbers they had just seen run down.

The fat man really couldn't hold on, he didn't care about getting dirty on the ground, he sat down in the grass next to him, stroked his chest and panted: "It's been so long, there has been no movement at all." Brother Zhao, could the person we met just now be a dead man who has already been killed? ”

Immediately, the wood-carved man who was far away at the top of the mountain rolled his eyes and secretly said that you three scholars are dead! Even if you don't die, you will be scared to death by the jackals, tigers and leopards in the mountains and forests.

A few people in the distance looked at it funny, and a wry smile and helplessness flashed in the eyes of the woodcarved man.

"It's not that Brother Wang has dragged us back this way, otherwise we would have gone down the mountain early!" The peach-faced man glared at the fat man, shook his head in disbelief and said, "It's unlikely." Brother Zhao, at this time, whether to change the route or how to go, you have a attitude. ”

A handsome man with a square face and a green shirt, who should be the Brother Zhao in their mouths, tilted his head and patted his head, staring at the mountain peak, frowning and thinking, without answering their questions.

The fat man sat in the grass and kept patting his legs and stomach, and said with a bitter face: "I finally came out with you to climb the second mountain, I walked for so long that I was so tired that I didn't want to move." No matter how much it is, as long as they don't kill people, the fat man just wants to save his life, even if he goes bankrupt, it doesn't matter. ”

According to his wishes, he can save his life, even if they give him a large sum of money. Then this fat man can be regarded as a treasure in the family, if there is really a thief who meets him, he will definitely have to make a small fortune.

The other person had been staring at the man in the green shirt, and after hearing the fat man's words, he sighed and sat down in the grass. They had climbed the mountain all day, and they were really tired.

The man in the green shirt looked up at the sky, the night was approaching, and gritted his teeth and said: "At this time, it is late, even if we change the way to go down the mountain, we may not be able to go down the mountain, and it is more likely that we will be lost in the mountains and forests, and we will lose our lives when we are surrounded by jackals." And in the future, whether the man is dead or not, there is a possibility that he will encounter the real thief who killed him. Left and right are dead, let's just take a gamble and move forward! ”

He didn't mention the temple in the mountain, because it was impossible, and the road was farther and more difficult to climb.

"Okay, it's up to Brother Zhao!"

The fat man and the apricot-faced man exchanged a few glances, and stood up from the grass with courage. The three of them looked at each other like this, but none of them took a single step forward, as if a step forward was the abyss of hell from which they would be killed.

After hesitating again and again, the scholar surnamed Zhao in the green shirt gritted his teeth, took a step forward cautiously, hung in the air, and stepped down after a while. That leg seems to weigh as much as a thousand pounds.

With this first step, this second and third steps are much easier. And with him taking the lead, the fat man and the apricot face slowly followed.

The movements of the three of them were so light and shaky. The closer you get to the top of the mountain, the greater the arc of the trembling, and the stop-and-go will turn and run back several times.

The sun had set, the afterglow was gone, and the night overhead was becoming grayer and darker. After about one more pillar of incense, the whole mountain will be dark.

The woodcarved man on the side of the road was still motionless, smiling extremely strangely. The three people next to the rock opposite, leaning together, smiling, all leaning against a big tree, waiting for them to appear.

The four of them, unlike the three hapless scholars, turned a blind eye to the night.

Finally, after the incense of the three pillars, the three scholars returned to the top of the mountain in fear, their movements becoming slower and slower, and they did not dare to approach the tree.

The three people next to the rock looked at each other and smiled bitterly, and all three guessed wrong. Only the curvature of the corner of the woodcarved man's mouth remained unchanged, becoming more strange in this half-dark night.

The three scholars held hands and slowly approached as fast as a turtle crawling. Suddenly, there was a terrible cry of an unknown animal in the mountains and forests in the distance, which frightened the three of them into a tremble, and they no longer dared to run forward, so they staggered around and ran back.

"Hahaha......"

The four people behind could no longer hide it, and laughed loudly, in this half-dark mountain forest, it was terrifying, not much different from the night owl's chirping.

This laughter, which shook the valley, also covered up the chirping of wild beasts, and frightened the galls of many wild beasts and birds, and frightened the three scholars even more.

The three of them climbed and ran straight to the bottom of the mountain, and ran to the temple in the mountain, never daring to stay here again, nor daring to go down through the forest.

Anyway, there are still a few temples on the top of the mountain, and it is unknown when they will be able to climb and whether they will encounter other beasts and robbers on the way.

"It's impossible for them to come back, let's go down the mountain, it's this son who won!"

Hearing the sound of their running from far to light, to the bottom of the mountain, until it disappeared, and it was speculated that it was impossible to return the way it came, the three of them laughed insolently for a while, and then walked to the side of the road with a smile.

"Alas, in the end overestimated their guts!" The round-faced woman stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "Senior brother, so I plan to ask us all to accompany you tonight?" Don't you have words first, don't attract attention on the road, it's best to live in separate rooms, why do you suddenly have such a good interest to accompany us? ”

The long-faced senior sister looked at the man quietly, smiling without saying a word.

The man said amusedly: "So this bet doesn't count?" ”

The round-faced woman waved her hand and said, "Count!" How can it not be counted? ”

The round-faced woman secretly hates that she has lost too many gambling losses on the road, and this time she can sleep with her without losing, how good. The only drawback is, why can't you let yourself have it to yourself?

The round-faced woman smiled and held the man's hand with one hand, in a good mood, staring at the woodcarved man on the side of the road and said: "I thought that I would only take my senior brother out for convenience, but I didn't expect it to have such fun, I didn't expect it." ”
