Chapter 288: Night Grilled Herring

Yuan Chuanhua rescued Hu Qiong and the others, worried that the cave guards would come back, and there would be another fight, so he said, "Hurry up." ”

The three of them hurried along the way to the lake, and the boat was still moored, and the three of them got into the boat and rowed it quickly to the middle of the lake. The man who was chasing him had no boat, but stood on the shore and shouted.

Yuan Gongzi saw that there was still blood flowing out of Hu Qiong's body, so he took out the golden medicine on his body and handed it over. Yuan Gongzi rowed a boat, and Liu Yan gave Hu Qiong a dressing, and the medicine stopped bleeding.

Yuan Gongzi asked, "Why are you sealed in the cave?

Hu Qiong went to the Fairy Lake to play, met the people of the Wufu Sect, was chased and killed by them, and fled into the cave. I met Yan Shifan and the Wufu Sect Master in the cave again, Yan Shifan saw that we knew their secret, so he sealed us in the cave, and fortunately Gongzi came to save us from the matter, and told us one by one.

Yuan Gongzi said: "I already knew about Yan Shifan's collusion with the Wufu Sect a few years ago, but I didn't have real evidence, so I couldn't pull him down. This time, I was entrusted to come here to Fenyi County to find evidence of his rebellion. ”

Hu Qiong said: "The Five Blessings Sect is a disaster for the rivers and lakes, there should be a hero who comes forward, ascends to the heights, and unites the world's warriors and martial arts masters to break his Five Blessing Sect." ”

Yuan Gongzi said: "It's not easy to break his Five Blessings Sect. For quite a few years, several heroes joined forces to make trouble in Panlong Mountain, everyone was seriously injured, and in the end, they only relied on light skills, ran up the cliff, jumped off the cliff, and escaped with their lives. ”

Hu Qiong said: "The big trouble in Panlong Mountain is also exciting and exciting to think about, and the hero is amazing." ”

Yuan Gongzi looked at the vast lake in the distance, the green peaks and clouds, remembered the feat of the year, and still felt his heart fluctuate, and said: "At that time, those who went to Panlong Mountain included Leng Yuhu Hero, Ye Mucang, the head of the Wudang Sword Sect, the four heroes of the rivers and lakes, as well as Zhang Erzhong in the imperial court, and Bai Guanghua, the leader of the Northern Hexagram Sect, several people cooperated with each other and gave full play to their strengths before they escaped from Panlong Mountain. Without one of them, the whole army is destroyed. Zhang Erzhong was shot to death in the mountain, and his wife found him on the mountain and also committed suicide. Leng Yuhu's lover was killed by the sect leader, and he was depressed and ran overseas. ”

When Hu Qiong heard that Master Bai Guanghua still had this heroic deed, she was also proud in her heart. Hearing Yuan Gongzi say Leng Yuhu, he said: "We met Leng Daxia in Zhangren Mountain, and Leng Daxia drove the minions of the Wufu Sect out of Zhangren Mountain. ”

Yuan Gongzi muttered, "Brother Leng is back, why is he coming back?"

Hu Qiong said: "Leng Daxia said that he had three good brothers, and he died to save him, and he went to worship them. ”

Yuan Gongzi said: "I know, he went to Wudang." This is a happy thing, I will go to Wudang to find him at dawn. ”

It was already dark, the boat was ashore, and the two horses were still tied under the old willow tree. There were also two big herring fish in the cabin, Liu Yan lifted them up and said, "Yuan Daxia, we grill the fish, please eat it." ”

"Okay!"

Hu Qiong and the others cut the fish by the fairy lake, washed them in the lake, carried the fish, led the horse, and walked towards the mountain. In an open meadow on a hillside, I found some dry branches and lit them, put on the herring with pine branches, and roasted them on the fire, and after a while, the smell of fish wafted up.

The fish is grilled. Liu Yan picked up a fish and handed it to Yuan Gongzi, and picked up another fish to eat with Hu Qiong. Hu Qiong sat on the grass, Liu Yan took the fish and handed it to Hu Qiong's mouth to feed him.

After eating the grilled fish, the three of them lay on the grass. At this time, the night breeze blows on the body, there is already coolness, the stars in the sky are twinkling, the fireflies are flying, and the fragrance of the forest is wafting in the air.

Yuan Gongzi said: "Let's go, the night is cold, let's find a family to sleep in." ”

The three of them stood up, led the horses, and walked to the bottom of the mountain, where there was a family with a separate courtyard. Liu Yan knocked on the door, the owner came to open the door, and Liu Yan told You Lake that it was too late and that she had come here to spend the night. The owner saw that Hu Qiong was injured, and Liu Yan explained that a robber came down the mountain to rob and was injured.

The owner did not suspect and let the three of them into the house. At night, Liu Yan slept in one room, and Yuan Gongzi slept in one room with Hu Qiong. After a tiring day, I soon fell asleep.

The next day up. After having breakfast at the farmhouse, Liu Yan gave money. Yuan Gongzi left. Hu Qiong and the two rode on horses and walked northwest. After walking for a while, Liu Yan felt ashamed in her heart and said, "I'm going home." "Turn the horse's head and go east. Hu Qiong wanted to say a few words, but Liu Yan had already ridden away. Hu Qiong couldn't, so he had to ride back to Fenyi County.

In the evening, Hu Qiong quietly came to the county office, met her uncle Zheng Wenjun, and told her uncle about the collusion between Yan Shifan and the Wufu Sect in the cave of Fairy Lake. Uncle said: "Although Yan Song has resigned, the emperor remembers his hard work and achievements, and still keeps him in the capital. The strict party is all over the government and the opposition, and with a few of you reckless heroes, how can you bring him down? You better make less trouble. The day after tomorrow is an auspicious day for the emperor, so you will take the letter to Beijing and go to see Lord Zhang Haining. ”

Hu Qiong agreed, but still went back to the hotel.

Unbeknownst to him, on the third day, a group of villagers from the countryside ran to the yamen to make trouble, making noise and shouting, saying that the magistrate was corrupt and bent the law, colluded with robbers, and beat the people, and wanted to drive the magistrate out of Fenyi City. Zheng Wenjun couldn't, so he came out to appease him in person.

I saw one person in the crowd climb the height, raise his arms and shout, "Drive away the corrupt officials, drive out the corrupt officials...... other villagers shouted, and those citizens who did not know the truth also joined in the fun, blocking a street in front of the county office.

Zheng Wenjun couldn't, so he asked the official to bring the troublemaker into the yamen. Zheng Wenjun asked them why they were corrupt and perverted the law, and why they beat up the people? The leaders said that Zheng Zhixian had beaten up a few innocent people in their neighborhoods for the sake of Zhang San and Li Si's case. Zheng Wenjun was about to defend himself, when he saw the beaten villagers rush into the ya, kneel on the ground, and shout that they have been wronged. Zheng Wenjun said, at that time, in order to try the case, he beat you, and now the county is willing to compensate you more money.

The leaders shouted: "Lord Zhixian, for either party, it is the parents of the people, how can we beat the people? We don't want silver, we want the county to leave the locality." ”

Zheng Wenjun said: "This matter will be discussed later." ”

The villagers who poured into the hall said: "Corrupt official, we little people know that we can't bring you down, so we will go to the house to sue you." ”

Zheng Wenjun was about to stretch out his hand to stop him, but the troublesome villagers dispersed in a hurry. Zheng Wenjun couldn't, so he turned around and went to the study with his master to discuss how to deal with it.

On the afternoon of the second day, an official document came to the prefecture, saying that the magistrate had bent the law for bribes, colluded with robbers, beat the people, and provoked a civil uprising.

At night, Hu Qiong sneaked into the county office and entered the study in the dark. Uncle Zheng Wenjun said: "Suing me for colluding with robbers means you, where do I start?"

Hu Qiong said: "Uncle locked up the robber Wang Wu Mazi in Cherry Mountain, and that Wang Wu Mazi belongs to the subordinates of the Wufu Sect, and the last time he stole the official seal, he was a member of the Wufu Sect. This time the villagers made a disturbance, and it must be the mastermind of the Wufu Sect behind it. ”

"This, I also thought of it. ”

Hu Qiong asked, "What does my uncle plan to do?"

Zheng Wenjun said: "It's about the Five Blessings Sect, and I have nothing to do." He stood up, took a few steps, and said: "The Wufu Sect is menacing this time, I can't resist it, it seems that I can only retreat as advance, it is better to take this opportunity and take the initiative to leave Fenyi County." ”

Hu Qiong said: "Leaving Fenyi County, isn't it a crime?"

Zheng Wenjun said: "The Five Blessings Sect doesn't want to kill me. They didn't rob the prison or send anyone to assassinate me, they just wanted to get me out. If they drive me away, they can also rescue Wang Wumazi in the cell. ”

Hu Qiong said: "Uncle let go easily, won't he bear the wrongs?"

Zheng Wenjun said: "I told you a long time ago that Yan Song is still in the capital, and the Yan Party is all over the court, and he still has hope of being reinstated." Yan Shifan is extremely smart, raising dead soldiers, colluding with the Five Blessing Sect, and his influence is all over Jiangxi, this is his hometown, as if it has become a dangerous situation. ”

Hu Qiong said: "Uncle, I didn't expect me to come and cause you such a big trouble." ”

Uncle said: "No, everything has nothing to do with you. When someone came to the house, I discussed with my master and slowly thought of a way to get out. It's not convenient to stay here for a long time, so you should hurry up. ”

Hu Qiong walked out of the study, looked around, dark and uninhabited, flew up to the room, performed "flying with the wind" light skill, and ran into the vast night in an instant.

Nothing happened overnight.

On the night of the second day, Hu Qiong thought that his uncle had offended the Wufu Sect, and what would he do if the people of the Wufu Sect came to take revenge? Hu Qiong thought of this, put on his night clothes, walked behind the county office, flew into the room, hid, and looked at the county office.

Tonight, the sky is cloudy, there is no bright moon, only a few points of starlight, and the night is dark. In the second half of the night, I saw a dark shadow on the house, flying towards the county government from afar.

Sure enough, someone is coming to assassinate my uncle.
