Chapter 483: Manhunt (I)
A few days ago, 50 warriors, including Ba Menglong, Gongtaohua, Gongxin, Lanhui, and Mu Qingshan, separated from Ba Yongqiu, the wife of Hu'an Palace, and tried to lure the Chu army to evacuate to a junction on the Tongxiang Mountain Road.
Yu Menglong led more than 50 people to flee towards Wanfengkou, and Chu Junyong chased Xiang Hun all the way into the depths of Wanfeng Linhai.
After a few fights, Dream Dragon lost nearly half of his samurai.
After a few days of maneuvering in the forest, Menglong found that the pursuing Chu army seemed to have given up on him.
On this day, the sky was cloudy and windy, and the dream dragon said: "Wanfeng Kou will definitely not be able to pass." Kill the horse and return to the small intersection. ”
The passers-by of the Gong clan said: "If you go back at this time, or be expected by the enemy, I am afraid that something is wrong." ”
Qingshan, the captain of the boat master and the mother of the warriors, said: "Here, I have been here, not far from Lin Yunguan, it is better to go to Lin to observe the neighborhood and visit the situation." ”
Lan replied: "Lin Yunguan is one of the few places with people in the sea of ten thousand winds and forests, and the Chu army will definitely pay special attention to it." ”
"The most dangerous place, or the safest." It is estimated that in a few days, we will not be able to get out of Linhai. We have few people, so it is easy to hide, so we can go to Lin Yunguan or its vicinity to find an opportunity to replenish some supplies. ”
Meng Long thought for a while and said, "That makes sense. ”
The group went to Lin Yunguan. There were no anomalies along the way.
When he arrived near Lin Yunguan, Qingshan, the eldest mother of the boatman, said: "Son, I'll go and investigate first." ”
The dragon agreed.
Mu Qingshan entered Lin Yunguan, and saw that Chang Shu, the steward of the Chang clan, who was injured and was injured in Dream Valley with Du Qunfang and Mu Mangzi, and later stayed in Lin Yunguan, was busy piling firewood and grass in the yard, and stepped forward and said, "Brother Chang, what are you doing here?"
Chang Shu looked back and saw that it was Mu Qingshan who came out of Dream Valley, and later in the boat master camp, he must have participated in the decisive battle of the Hu'an Mountain Grassland, and exclaimed: "I heard that Hu'an Palace was burned to ashes, why did you come here?"
"Have you ever been to the Chu Army?" asked Mu Qingshan.
"I came to a team, and when I saw that there was not a single soldier of the Pakistani army, and I didn't enter Lin Yunguan, I withdrew, and I never came again. Listening to the Chu army, their general Qu Rong had an order not to enter Lin Yunguan. ”
"Is there a Chu army nearby?"
"I used to look around in the name of collecting medicine, but I didn't find it. Chang Shu said.
"Then what are you doing?" Mu Qingshan asked again.
"Last night's third watch, Du Fuzi passed away. ”
Mu Qingshan exclaimed: "The master has passed away?
"yes. It's strange to say, a few days ago, Du Fuzi said that his yang energy is not rising, and his life is not long, and he also specially explained that in the world of war, there is no need to pay attention to auspicious days and ceremonies, if he goes, cremation is important. Unexpectedly, last night, he really went. We are preparing firewood and grass. Chang Shu said.
"Why are there only these few people, my brother?" asked Mu Qingshan.
"A few days ago, I heard that the Chu army entered Wanfeng Village, and the master led me to Wanfeng Village to collect and bury the bodies of the owner of the fruit village and others. Your brother and mother are in the woods, and now they are packing up Du Fuzi's daily utensils in the room and will be cremated together. ”
"I'll go see my brother first, and then I'll bring one to you. "Muqingshan Road.
Mu Qingshan entered the room of Du Qinglian, a native of Shu, and called out, "Brother!"
Mother Shulin was cleaning up Du Qinglian's relics, looked up, and said happily: "Brother, I thought you had turned into smoke." ”
Mu Qingshan said: "My life is big. ”
Mu Shulin looked at Mu Qingshan, who thought she had donated her body, and suddenly exclaimed: "Brother, what are you hanging around your neck? Could it be that Xiao Gu Gong is dead? Otherwise, how can the necklace that Xiao Gu Mother gave him be around your neck!" They called "Xiao Gu Gong" refers to the Tiger Ben warrior Du Qunfang, and Xiao Gu Mother refers to the future female village master of the Dream Valley matriarchal clan.
Mu Qingshan said: "How can Xiao Gu Gong die so easily! A few days ago in the jungle, I was asleep, Lan Hui shouted to go quickly, I got up and walked with my son." After walking half a mile, I found that Xiao Tani's leopard tooth necklace was worn around my neck at some point.
I asked Lan Hui what was going on, and he said he didn't know, but I guess he knew that it should be Xiao Gu Gong who hung it around my neck while I was asleep. ”
"What about Kotani Gong?" said Mu Shulin.
"It was the day I parted with him. If all goes well, he should be at Tongxiang Mountain by now, and we will go later. Okay, Brother Xian, I'll talk about it later, Gongzi and Lan Hui are still in the jungle outside. ”
At the same time as Mu Qingshan entered Lin Yunguan, he sent several warriors to poke out three or four miles from the direction of the possible enemy, but he did not find the Chu army, and he heard that there was no Chu army nearby, and he heard that Du Qinglian, a native of Shu, had died, and said: "I didn't plan to enter Lin Yunguan, so as not to cause trouble to Du Fuzi, but he just passed away, so I should go to see him for the last time and give him a ride." ”
The dream dragon ordered to enter Lin Yunguan, leaving a few people outside to control the wind.
Lin Yunguan Zhongchang Shu and others heard that Gongzi was coming, and they hurriedly came to greet him.
Qi Menglong said to Chang Shu: "I just heard that Du Fuzi has passed away, we will take care of the affairs of the master, you go and cook some hot soup for us, I haven't eaten for several days." However, you can't stay here for long, you move faster, and the food is simpler. Again, please find a room and let Peach Blossom rest first. ”
Gong Taohua said: "I'm not sleepy. ”
Qi Menglong said: "Okay, let's go see Du Fuzi first." ”
Chang Shu hurriedly went to command.
Yu Menglong ordered the others to act separately, and he entered Du Qinglian's room with Gong Taohua, Lan Hui, and Mu Qingshan, and saw that Du Qinglian's face was as usual, as if he was sleeping, and he was only breathing.
Next, as a great wizard, the dream dragon began to perform for the deceased Du Qinglian.
About half an hour, Chang Shu came to report: "Son, the firewood and grass have been built." ”
Qi Menglong said: "Okay, let's invite Du Fuzi out." ”
Gu Menglong, Mu Qingshan, Chang Shu, and Lan Hui carried Du Qinglian's body out of the room, sent out the third door and the second door, and came to the largest flat dam in Lin Yunguan, which was inlaid with dozens of small rectangular stone slabs, and placed the body on the firewood and grass pile that had been erected. A few days ago, the cremation site that Du Qinglian chose for himself was in front of the cliff with a natural gossip-shaped pattern behind Lin Yunguan, and for some reason, the night before yesterday, he changed his mind.
The dream dragon is going to perform the final ceremony for the funeral of Du Qinglian, a native of Shu.
Just as the fire was being lit, the mother grove suddenly shouted, "Wait a minute, I forgot a big thing." ”
Mu Qingshan said angrily: "Fire eyebrows, you still forget the big thing!"
"There are also two most important books, which the Master has commanded that must be burned together!" said Mu Shulin.
Mu Qingshan said: "You go slowly, I'll go!"
"You can't find it. Mother Grove stubbornly said.
Mu Qingshan shouted: "Go quickly!"
At this time, a warrior outside bumped into the general and said urgently: "Childe, the Chu army is up!"
The crowd was surprised.
It turned out that there were two Chu troops that were outflanked, and one was according to the order of Zhuang Fu, the deputy marshal of the Chu army. This Chu army has been lying in ambush about five miles away from Lin Yunguan, with only more than two hundred people, and the task is to hide on a mountain, monitor Lin Yunguan's every move, and not alarm Lin Yunguan. The warriors sent by the Menglong did not reach the hiding place of this Chu army.
The other way is the Chu general Xiang Hun who has been chasing after the dreaming dragon. Xiang Hun had already discovered the whereabouts of the Dream Dragon, and he had been quietly following behind the Dream Dragon, several times, he wanted to start, but in view of the jungle, it was not easy to form a solid encirclement, and it was easy for the Dream Dragon to slip through the net, so Xiang Hun did not startle the snake, but let several fine warriors pretend to be locals, follow the Dream Dragon, and make marks along the way. Xiang Hun was patient and led a large group of people to follow behind, waiting for the Menglong to enter the terrain that was not easy to escape, that is, the best time to close the net.
Hearing the news that the Menglong had entered Lin Yunguan, Xiang Hun thought that the opportunity could not be lost, ordered a quick follow-up, and quietly surrounded Lin Yunguan; the Chu army, which had already been ambushed nearby, found that the team Ba people had entered Lin Yunguan, and also quietly came over and joined Xiang Hun's capture team.
Lin Yunguan is equivalent to a quadrangle courtyard, in which the left and right sides are high walls, connected to the wall, the front is the gate building, and the back is the cliff, which only birds can fly up. In the entire Lin Yunguan, there is only one entrance and exit gate.
Surrounded on three sides, which is actually equivalent to being surrounded on all sides, has been formed, and Chu General Xiang Hun immediately made a decision and ordered to do it.
At this time, someone reminded Xiang Hun: "General Qu Rong once ordered: Our sergeants are not allowed to enter Lin Yunguan, so as not to harass a master of Shu inside." ”
Xiang Hun said with a smile: "That's just a favor done by General Qu Rong, do you think he is really rare that Shu countryman! At this time, General Longwu of Ba Guo and Hu'an Mountain's son Gu Menglong are in Lin Yunguan, if you let him run away, you will be responsible?"
The man had nothing to say.
Xiang Hun said: "The general is outside, the king's order can not be accepted, let alone the general's order! Attack quickly! The dead and alive Dream Dragon, the same heavy reward!"
