In the second year of Jingyou (1035), Tie Lang looked at the Lingying Mountain in front of him, and his heart was inexplicably anxious, from Yuanzhou in the west to Gyeongju in the east, and the mountains in the south to Jingzhou, he had already explored them all, this was the 639th mountain he walked into in three years, and then the mountain to the north was the ranch of the party people.

In the past three years, Tie Lang has slept in the open air, wearing stars and moons, his originally handsome and fair face has long been tanned a faint bronz, and his emaciated face is full of anxiety caused by perennial disappointment.

Lingying Mountain, is it the last hope? Before Tie Lang went up the mountain, he had been thinking, what would he do after this mountain? Go back to Heavenly Soldier City or go back to look for Qingque, or Red Sleeves, or Zhao Qingfei?

News from Heavenly Soldier City Every time he passed by Broken Jade Village, Bai Yuxia would always tell him something, and Bai Yuxia hinted several times whether he should give up looking for Ma Munan and do something else, but Tie Lang didn't know if he had fallen into the devil or what, he just didn't listen.

In fact, Tie Lang himself knows that Ma Mu Nanye has become a key in his heart, and only she can start the rest of his life. Even Li Huaxue and Bai Yuxia were discussing in private that Tie Lang was too concerned about the personal affairs of his children and that he was losing his husband's demeanor, and when he was bumped into by Tie Lang and heard it, Tie Lang laughed it off.

Of course, Tie Lang has not forgotten the matter of Wu Mu Yuye in the past three years, in the past three years, on the six hundred and thirty-eight mountains, he has made countless green forest heroes, and of course, he has also cleaned up a lot of robbers and thieves who have done evil.

At first, these people in the green forest didn't know why Tie Lang always wandered around the surrounding mountains, but later someone found out about it in Broken Jade Village, so they united and wanted to help Tie Lang find it, Tie Lang was noncommittal, but no matter who searched the mountain, he still wanted to go by himself.

Lingying Mountain is the last remnant of the mountains on the Loess Plateau, the mountain is not high, but in half a day, Tie Lang sat on the top of the mountain,

The whole seat was finished, and it was empty.

Tie Lang sat on the top of the mountain and pondered for a long time, the sunset in early summer, gorgeous and full, the mountains with light and darkness were on the left, and the grassland shining with golden light was on the right.

The shouts of the party members on the grassland were deaf, and Tie Lang slowly felt that the shouts of these people were gradually rapid, and then he heard a chirp that resounded through the nine skies, this chirp was hearty, with indescribable pleasure.

Tie Lang couldn't help but be shocked when he heard his body, which was half leaning on the stone wall: Isn't this a golden eagle?

Tie Lang turned over and stood on the boulder behind him, and when he looked northwest, in the sky dyed red by the sunset, a big bird was flickering its wings and flying further northwest.

Tie Lang concluded that it was the golden eagle, and then he remembered that Qing Fei had said that the green finch was chasing the eagle eagle to the northwest, and the green finch must be in the direction of the eagle owl.

Tie Lang roared a few times on the top of the mountain, trying to attract the attention of the golden eagle, but the golden eagle had already flown out more than ten miles away, and Tie Lang saw this, and a ladder cloud jumped down from the top of the mountain, and a few flew to the halfway point of the mountain, and with a whistle, the snow shadow rushed in.

Tie Lang chased after him all night, and there was no trace of the golden eagle, and the next morning, Tie Lang was passing by a group of herdsmen grazing, so he stepped forward to investigate.

Those herdsmen were a little surprised to see Tie Lang dressed in Hanfu, and when they heard Tie Lang inquire about the golden eagle this time, he said in blunt Chinese: "That eagle is very vicious, and in only two or three years, the falcons on this grassland have almost been killed" It was the male owner of the ranch who spoke.

Tie Lang was puzzled and asked, "Why did this golden eagle kill the falcon?"

The party said: "We are all strange, this eagle eagle does not eat cattle and sheep and does not hurt people, only kills falcons, and does not eat when killed."

Tie Lang remembered that Qingque had said that when she came out by eagle eagle that day, she was besieged and killed by the party falcon, could it be that this little golden eagle was actually taking revenge?

Qingque was chasing the golden eagle into the territory of the party at that time, so is Qingque also in the territory of the party now, thinking of this, Tie Lang made up his mind and went deep into the party to find out.

The herdsmen of the party were better, but the cavalry galloping on the grassland was not friendly, and Tie Lang had to go out day and night, not because he was afraid of them, it was always better to have more than less.

Tie Lang wandered around on the party grassland and couldn't help but be a little frightened, this party people are all soldiers, as long as there is a horn to start, the herdsman man will wear a stubborn roar away, only three or four days Tie Lang has seen four or five such exercises.

The party members trained the people in this way, when they were not subservient, Tie Lang's first clear feeling was like this, this party member since Li Jiqian was about to leave the Great Song Dynasty, sometimes he plundered the Song Realm, and sometimes he went to the court with a heavy salute to ask for a seal.

At the end of the first year of Ming Dao (1032), the leader of the party, Li Deming, the king of Western Xia, died, and his son Li Yuanhao inherited the title of king of Western Xia. This Li Yuanhao is ambitious and pursues his grandfather Li Jiqian, and even the name of the Ming Dao of the Great Song Dynasty was changed by him to Xiandao because of the anti-obscurity of his father Li Deming.

Tie Lang wandered around the territory of the party for seven days and did not find any trace of the golden eagle, and on this day he saw that the dry food and water he brought had bottomed out, so he went straight to Lingzhou near the left to make supplies.

Lingzhou city wall high base, five zhang high city wall still has residual arrows, Lingzhou city is the Song and Xia for many years must fight for the place, several tug-of-war down, the Great Song Dynasty finally can no longer support the expedition for many years, then Lingzhou abandoned.

Tie Lang originally bought the clothes of the party members, and wanted to make it convenient, but when he entered the city, he found that there were a lot of Song people staying here, and he couldn't help but be surprised when he looked carefully, these were all martial arts people with swords and swords.

The scene in the restaurant made Tie Lang easily think of the Qiulong Inn back then, the restaurant was full of guests, all silently eating and drinking by themselves, Tie Lang entered, those people just glanced up, and then lowered their heads again.

Tie Lang also ordered a bowl of noodles to eat in the corner and observed all the conditions in the restaurant, among these people, there are Han people, Tubo people, Khitan people, and of course, not to mention party members.

Tie Lang saw that these people were eating unhurriedly, so he thought what are these people waiting for here?

Tie Lang finished eating a bowl of noodles, so he asked the guy to pack some dry food, filled some clean water and was about to leave, when he heard the horse's hooves outside the restaurant for a while, and stopped in front of the restaurant.

Seeing the person who entered the door, Tie Lang couldn't help but be stunned, that person was actually the boss of the Seven Tyrants of Hanzhong who besieged Qingfei in the Qiulong Inn, Yanyunsuo, dressed in brocade clothes, very gorgeous, and the eye bag rod in his hand was also inlaid with gold and silver, Tie Lang said in his heart.

The smoke cloud stood at the door and didn't go in, but just flicked his sleeves and glanced around at the people in the inn: "This official has sealed the orders of Prime Minister Zhang Cheng and General Helian, and I am here to issue this fourth batch of heroic orders."

Only then did Tie Lang know that this Yanyunsuo had actually become the official of the king of Western Xia, but he didn't know what this heroic order was, so he sat down next to a middle-aged Han man with a polite temperament and asked softly: "This brother, what is the heroic order?"

The man looked at Tie Lang in surprise and said, "You don't know what the Hero Order is and entered this Juxian Pavilion?"

Tie Lang asked puzzledly: "I'm just here to eat, and I don't know what Juxian Pavilion is." ”

The man looked at Tie Lang and said with a smile: "I see that you haven't even brought weapons, you must not be from the martial arts, this restaurant is indeed a restaurant, but in the past few days, this is the Juxian Pavilion of the King of Western Xia." ”

Tie Lang was even more puzzled: "What is the King of Western Xia going to do?"
