Chapter Seventy-One: Exploring the Roots

"Okay, I promise you, help you eradicate Song Jiabao, I don't know what to call the head?"

Feng Qingluan said loudly.

"I'm Yanpo, the head of the Hawa tribe here, you trespassed into my territory without permission, so I gave you some colors to see, now it's okay, if you can destroy Song Jiangfei, our Hawa tribe will send you across the river!"

With a wave of his hand, the natives dispersed.

"Let's hurry back and find out what Songjiabao is doing, it seems that these Hawa people can help us cross the river!" Feng Qingluan said.

The crowd got up and returned to the camp.

Feng Qingluan ordered Han Yuliang to be called over and asked him to take a dozen shrewd soldiers to find out where Song Jiabao was and what bad deeds Song Jiangfei had.

Shao Donglai said: "They don't understand their words, I'll go with them!" ”

Feng Qingluan hurriedly instructed Han Yuliang to pay attention to protecting Shao Donglai.

Han Yuliang agreed repeatedly.

"Without further ado, you have to go back quickly!" Feng Qingluan instructed a few more words.

Han Yuliang set off with everyone.

Shao Donglai said: "We don't know where Songjiabao is, we don't know if he is a town or a castle?" ”

"General Shao, we can move along the main road, there must be someone on the side of the road, wait for us to meet someone who is inquiring!"

"That's the only way, if we wander around in the mountains, we won't be able to find out!"

They quietly went up the road, which was a big road, but in the middle of the mountains, it was wider than the path.

More than a dozen people walked quietly along the main road, Han Yuliang inquired about the surrounding movements from time to time, and he knew that as long as there was smoke rising, there would be people.

They walked more than ten miles, it was getting late, and the sun was setting.

"There's a house there!" A sergeant shouted.

When they looked up, they saw smoke rising from the mountainside.

"General Shao, let's go there and take a look, there is only a pillar of cooking smoke, which means that there is only one family there." Han Yuliang said.

"We've been walking for so long to see this family, let's hurry up and inquire!"

Shao Dong came to say, and more than a dozen people walked towards the place where the smoke rose.

Because there was no road, the people had to follow the mountain.

After walking for half an hour, night fell, the mountain wind was howling, and there was no place for cooking smoke.

"There's a path here!" Han Yuliang said in surprise.

It's said to be a path, but it's actually just someone walking through it.

Shao Donglai took a closer look.

"This path is often walked, maybe there will be someone at the end of the path!"

Everyone walked along the path, although the future was bleak, but after all, there was a goal.

The trail winds its way up the mountain.

The moon rose, and the moon was as silver as silver.

The crowd saw that at the end of the path was a cave.

"There must be people living in the cave!" Han Yuliang said.

Suddenly, there was a terrible cry from the cave.

"Oh no, there's someone in the cave killing people!" Han Yuliang was the first to hear the clue and shouted.

Shao Donglai said: "Although I don't understand the situation in the cave at this time, it is important for us to save people!" ”

The sergeants picked up their weapons and rushed to the cave under the leadership of Han Yuliang.

There are pine lights in the cave.

"Who are you?" Someone shouted.

Han Yuliang raised his eyes and saw three men in the cave.

An old man lay on the ground, and a silver-haired old woman shrunk in a corner shivering.

"Who are you, why are you bullying the old man here?" Han Yuliang said angrily.

A man said angrily: "We are from Songjiabao, these two old coffins have a thousand-year-old He Shou Wu in their hands, don't take it out to honor our Song Jiangfei Uncle Song, hide and cook it by yourself, you say you should fight or not!" ”

Shao Donglai said angrily: "That's their thing, how can they not eat it, you are bullying." Hurry up and help the old man, the old man has been beaten and is dying.

"Who are you, meddling, beware that we will catch you in Songjiabao, peel and light the sky lantern!"

The man roared.

"Han Yuliang, give him some color!" Shao Donglai put the old man aside, stood up, and said angrily.

Han Yuliang took a step forward. The man raised his hand to fight.

Han Yuliang grabbed his left hand and pushed forward, and the man suddenly leaned forward and fell into a.

Shao Donglai gave an order, and the sergeants quickly restrained the other two.

The man still wanted to get up, but Han Yuliang stepped forward and stepped him on the ground.

"Who are you, say it, spare your dog's life!"

Shao Donglai shouted.

"You wait, we are from Songjiabao, if you provoke me, I will cut you with a thousand knives!"

The man didn't give in.

"Okay, you have backbone, remember, it's okay if you don't say it, there is a cliff in front of you, we will throw you under the cliff to feed the wild dogs, so that where will Songjiabao know that you will die here!"

"Third brother, you still say it, I don't want to die!" A man said.

"Shut up, you soft-skinned egg!"

Shao Dong came to see that the man was frightened, and shouted: "Cut off that kid's arm, I see if he says it or not!" ”

Someone with a long knife made a gesture to cut down.

The man was so frightened that he peed his pants. said in a loud voice: "I said, I said, we are the family members of Songjiabao!" He pointed to the man who was restrained by Han Yuliang.

"His name is Song San, and he is our head!"

"Song San, do you say it or not!" Song San was still tough just now, but now when he saw that these people were going to attack them, he hurriedly said: "It's me Song San who has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai!" ”

"Han Yuliang, let him go!" Shao Dong came to say.

Han Yuliang let go of Song San. Song Sanyi got up.

At this time, the old man who was beaten by them woke up slowly.

Shao Donglai walked over and asked, "Old man, why did they beat you?" ”

The old man said hatefully: "It's common for him to beat us, where is the reason!" ”

"It seems that Song Jiabao has done a lot of evil here!" Shao Donglai said angrily.

"Ask them, are they human or devil?" The old woman also said tremblingly.

"Song San, I'll give you a chance to make meritorious contributions, as long as you take us to capture Songjiabao, the mistakes you have made will be written off!" Shao Dong came to say.

"Songjiabao is not something that a dozen of you can capture, even if I take you there, you can't capture Songjiabao!"

Shao Donglai sneered: "You also underestimate our Chuxia National Salvation Army, even if your Songjiabao is a Longtan tiger's den, we have to break through!" ”

"You are the Chuxia National Salvation Army?" Song San had some doubts.

"Not bad!"

"No wonder someone came to our Songjiabao and let us always pay attention to the movements of the Chuxia National Salvation Army, the three of us were actually sent out by Song Jiangfei to inquire about the news!"

"It's Wu Shaoguang's people!"

"Yes, it's the teacher from Cangyuan City, who taught us to arrange our troops!"

"What's his name, you know?"

"I heard it's Qiu Chunguang!"

Shao Donglai was stunned, since Wu Shaoguang sent Qiu Chunguang over, it means that this Song Jiabao is not ordinary.

"You strong men, if you want to attack Songjiabao, the old man is willing to lead the way for you, as long as you take Songjiabao, the old man will die without regrets!"

The old man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said.

"Old man, do you know the path of Songjiabao!" Shao Donglai asked.

"Alas, I was also confused back then, I was the watchdog of the Song family, and I am familiar with Song Jiabao!"

"Han Yuliang, let's hurry back and let the King of Chu attack Songjiabao!" Shao Dong came to say.

Han Yuliang agreed.

The old man instructed the old woman: "You are at home to watch the house, I will come when I go, open Songjiabao, I will invite you to drink wine!" ”

"You don't have to worry about me, as long as you open Songjiabao, I can live well!"

The old man said, turning his head inward.

Han Yuliang asked the three people to carry the old man, and the group returned to the camp.

Shao Donglai asked people to strictly guard Song San and the others, and he and Han Yuliang brought the old man to see Feng Qingluan.

Seeing Feng Qingluan, he quickly explained the situation.

Feng Qingluan was overjoyed, and he couldn't imagine that he would have nowhere to find it when he stepped on the iron shoes, and it didn't take much effort to get it.

He asked people to arrange meals for the old man, and gave the old man a set of clothes, and the old man burst into tears in an instant.

The old man's surname is Zheng, and his hometown is Cangyuan City. fled to Songjiabao, and when he was young, he was a villager in Songjiabao.

Feng Qingluan listened to him briefly talk about his life experience. asked: "Old man, we want to attack Songjiabao, I don't know what Songjiabao's reputation is in the local area?" ”

Zheng Laohan said fiercely: "Song Jiabao has been rampant in the township, in this place where the emperor is far away, their family is the emperor of the soil, especially this Song Jiangfei, who has killed countless people!" ”

Feng Qingluan asked again: "Since his people are so angry, isn't there anyone to clean them up?" ”

"He colluded with the government, and no one could clean them up, especially those Hawa people, who he said were savages and drove them into the deep mountains and forests."

"In that case, let's attack Songjiabao and avenge the villagers!" Feng Qingluan said.

"If you attack Songjiabao, I know a secret passage, and I can sneak into Songjiabao!" Zheng Laohan said.

"That's the best!"

Feng Qingluan immediately ordered Han Yuliang to lead a hundred elite soldiers and Zheng Laohan to enter Songjiabao from the secret passage.
