Don't listen to the sound of the forest beating the leaves, why not chant and walk slowly. Bamboo canes and shoes are lighter than horses, who is afraid?

The steep spring breeze blows the wine and wakes up, slightly cold, and the mountain is obliquely shining but welcomes. Looking back at the bleak place, there is no wind and rain and no sunshine when I return."

One by one, Su Shi

The sun is twilight, and the mountains are far away, and the forest is urgent.

On this day, when it was autumn, the twilight was late, and on the official road in front of Yunlong Fort in Chuzhou, the sound of the hooves of the two red horses had to walk slowly.

Immediately sat a man and a woman.

The man's appearance is simple, his appearance is dignified, and his expression is quite a bit arrogant.

The woman was dressed in a Jiangnan embroidered silk skirt, her face was beautiful, and between her smiles, a pair of sweet dimples were slightly revealed on her childish cheeks.

Seeing the twilight, the chickens and dogs bark in the countryside, and the smoke is smoking. The woman said, "Brother Wanyan, there is Yunlong Fort in front, let's rest there." “

The man nodded and said, "It's okay, after walking for half a day, the horses are also a little tired, if they miss the accommodation, I'm afraid they will have to sleep in the wilderness." “

It turned out that this man and woman were none other than Wan Yanfu and Meng Dan'er.

Wan Yan Fu did not inquire about the whereabouts of Ma Ronghao, the leader of the beggar gang, and his uncle Wan Yan Fu in Jiankang.

That night, after encountering the desperate divine doctor Hua Buji and others in front of the Confucius Temple, because he saw Lu He and Bai Rushuang, who was known as the fairy of Qinhuai, he was quite curious, so he and Meng Dan'er quietly followed behind to watch the movement.

Later, when he saw them enter the helm of the beggar gang, he avoided the beggar gang disciples who were patrolling, and secretly looked in the crack of the window, only to know that the white-haired old man who fought with him turned out to be a famous desperate doctor in the rivers and lakes. They came to the beggars late at night to heal the two elders of the beggars. And from their conversation, I learned that the leader of the horse gang had been out of the gang for a long time.

Hopes of inquiring about his uncle's whereabouts from the beggars were dashed. Later, I remembered the appointment with the Khitan princess Yelufei in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and thought to myself, since my uncle and the horse gang leader did not return to Jiangnan, maybe it was unknown if they went to the outside of the customs as Yelufei said. Now that the Mid-Autumn Festival is only two or three months away from the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15, I will simply go to Mount Tai slowly, and then see if there is any news about Yelufei and the two of them? Besides, the Taishan Moon Appreciation Conference is an annual martial arts competition in the rivers and lakes, and almost all the large and small sects or characters with heads and faces in the rivers and lakes have to participate, and the leader of the horse gang is the leader of the beggar gang, and the few people in the rivers and lakes will naturally not miss such a grand event, and it will be very easy to meet him at that time.

So, the next day, he bought two horses with Meng Dan'er, and walked all the way to the boundary of Xuzhou.

Yunlong Fort is just a small town, and it can even be said that it can only be regarded as a slightly larger village. Although it is located in the north-south traffic artery, the geographical location is very remote, even the inn in the town is only one, and the signboard in front of its door is written with "Yuelai Inn" several big words.

When they walked into the inn, there were already a lot of people living in the inn. When the man saw that there was another guest, he greeted him with a smile on his face and came forward to lead the horse. Meng Dan'er threw him a few copper coins and said, "Trouble the little second brother to feed some good feed." “

The guy took the copper money and said with a smile: "Okay, don't worry, the guest officer, our store has high-quality horse materials." “

Sleeping until midnight, Wan Yanfu was woken up by a burst of people shouting and neighing, and quietly got up to look at it, it turned out that a team of darts came to stay in the hotel, so he didn't think much about it, and went back to sleep.

When I got up early the next morning, I was about to have breakfast with Meng Dan'er, but I saw that the team had already packed up and was ready to go on the road.

Wan Yanfu secretly wondered, this team of darts arrived in the middle of the night last night, and set off so early, what kind of darts were being bet on the bottom? The line was in such a hurry? So he secretly went out to see, only to see that the number of this dart team was very large, almost more than 100 people, there were 1 or 20 people dressed as dart masters, and there was a prisoner cart in the middle of the team, and a prisoner with a dirty head was locked on the car, because the distance was too far, he could not see his face clearly. In addition, there were four or five horse-drawn carriages, carrying dozens of large boxes, the contents of which seemed to be very heavy, pressing the axles creaking, and on the carriages were several brocade dart flags, on which were written "Wuwei Dart Bureau".

Wan Yanfu secretly paid attention to the crowd of darts and pedestrians, and saw that there seemed to be two people in the lead, one of them was older, his eyes were burning and he was not angry and arrogant, and he danced in the wind with a spotted white beard under his chin, and his spirit was very prosperous. The other man was about thirty years old, broad-shouldered and round-waisted, tall, and very strong-looking, with a three-foot scimitar hanging from his waist and a red bag on his back. The wind ruffled the corners of his robe, revealing the armor underneath his robe.

Wan Yanfu was taken aback, could it be that this person was from the official palace? Otherwise, how could he be armoured? This dart was also too strange, and it was actually holding a prisoner.

Just thinking about it, Meng Dan'er quietly pulled him aside, snorted at the dart team, and the two immediately understood, turned around to pack their bags, and followed the dart team from a distance, and walked slowly with the reins.

At the beginning, the dart team was full of vigilance for the two, and the old man and the big man looked back at the two from time to time, looking puzzled.

This sunrise is in Chuzhou, bordering Fengyang Bengbu. Suddenly, there was dust in front of him, and two fast horses galloped forward, and the passengers were two men, one fat and one thin, and when they passed the dart team, their eyes stared directly at the dart car.

When the young dart head was about to shout, the two horses had already flashed by, and the dust was far away.

Meng Dan'er whispered: "These two men may be from the green forest, and the Wuwei Dart Bureau may be targeted." “

Wan Yan was surprised: "How do you know?"

Meng Dan'er said: "Those two thieves are thieves, their eyes are just staring at the dart car, and the clear-eyed person knows at a glance that it is the person on the green forest road stepping on the plate." “

Wan Yanfu didn't know anything about these trivial matters on the rivers and lakes, and said: "Is this Wuwei dart game powerful?" Speaking of the dart game, he suddenly remembered Lin'an's Zhenyuan dart game, and said in his heart: The lintel of the Zhenyuan dart game is majestic, and it must be famous, but in the end, it will not be the same and destroy the door.

After walking for about half an hour, the dust rose behind them, and the two horsemen turned back and chased after them, and one man and one rode past the sides of the dart team.

The dust that rolled up covered everyone's eyes. The young dart head scolded. The two men ignored it and rushed ahead of the dart team without stopping.

The old dart's face was solemn and he didn't say a word.

At this time, only the sound of horses' hooves was heard, and the dust behind them was flying, covering the sky and the sun, and four fast horses galloped towards them. Immediately, the four passengers, two old and two young, were all dressed in blue and blue suits, and their waists were single-handed. When the four of them passed by the dart team, their eyes were only fixed on the prisoners in the prison carts, as if they were blind to the large wooden boxes in several dart carts.

Wan Yan replied: "Are these people the helpers invited by the two people before?"

Meng Dan'er shook her head and said, "No. “

Wan Yan replied: "How can you see it? Didn't the two of them make a special trip to pick them up? If they weren't in a group, why would they catch up with one after the other?"

Meng Dan'er said: "The two people in the front just stared at the box on the dart cart, they must be the heroes who robbed money, but the next four people are very different, they turn a blind eye to the property, just keep looking at the prisoners on the cart, they must be the heroes of the robbery." I just don't know who this prisoner is? What is in the box? I went to get a certificate and escort two things, but they were all targeted, and it seems that the Wuwei Dart Bureau is in big trouble this time...... We just have to follow them closely, and there will be a lot of fun. She said with a fluttering eyebrow, as if she was excited at the thought of having a lively look.

Wan Yan replied: "I don't know when they will do it?" He had never seen a person in the green forest rob a dart, and when he saw Meng Dan'er talking with great interest, he couldn't help but be curious.

Meng Dan'er said: "I don't know about this. “

Wan Yan replied: "I don't know if the Wuwei Dart Bureau can handle it?"

Meng Dan'er said: "Wuwei Dart Bureau is Jiankang and even the whole country are famous dart bureau, in Dadu (now Beijing) also has a branch, the head of the dart Zeng Zhengxiong a 'soul snatching Dapu knife' across the rivers and lakes for more than 40 years, has never been defeated, the bodyguard silver has never lost a penny and a half. Looking at those few ideas just now, I'm afraid they can't shake it in the slightest, but I don't know what their backup will be yet?"

Wan Yan replied: "Is that old dart master Zeng Zhengxiong, the head of the dart?"

Meng Dan'er snorted and was about to answer, but saw the dust in front of the dart team, and two more horsemen crossed the dart team and galloped past. Strange to say, this time the two of them did not look at the prisoner or the wooden box, but just looked at the red baggage on the back of the young dart master with strange expressions, and exchanged glances with each other.

Meng Dan'er felt a sigh in her heart, Rao is that she is well-informed, and she can't help but break out in a cold sweat at this time.
