Chapter 16: Here comes the spies

Leng Yuhu Ye Mucui and the two rode horses, walked slowly, turned in a big circle, but did not meet Chen Jihong, and found a hotel to stay in at night.

When I got up the next day, I didn't see the white-faced boy, I had breakfast, and I turned around again, but the boy didn't appear. Only then did he hit the horse to the north, asked the place of "eight rooms", and hit the horse forward.

Originally, "Eight Rooms" was in a mountain col, a small village, because there was a large family, built eight rooms, so this village was called "Eight Rooms" Village. When the two of them came to the village, they saw Chen Jihong waiting for them in front of the house.

The three of them met, had lunch, and did not leave, but stayed. The next day, after breakfast, I left very late. Riding a horse to the south, he galloped for more than ten miles, then turned west and walked in the direction of Tuguanya Cottage.

The road became more and more rugged, trekking through mountains and rivers, sometimes having to lead the horse forward, the mountains getting higher and higher, sometimes walking over the edge of the cliff, sometimes unable to see the road, under the leadership of Chen Jihong, through the barren grass.

The mountains in front of you are overlapping and ravine-crisscrossed, and only one mountain road appears in front of you. Chen Jihong took the two of them and led the horse forward. But I saw that there were two brothers in the cottage guarding the gate, and there were two people beside him.

The three of them were very surprised, the two turned their faces sideways, but they were not the same as the two men, the man had a big beard, the woman had a black face, but it was really the two of them, their horse was still the original white horse, and the folding fan in the man's hand was still the folding fan.

Why do they wear makeup?

Chen Jihong said: "There are spies in the mountains. Is this scholar from the government, who hears any news and wants to sneak into the cottage to find out the situation?"

Chen Jihong said: "We might as well rush over and drink him." ”

Leng Yuhu said: "They must have ulterior motives in disguise. We walked over and pretended not to recognize them, to see what tricks they were up to. ”

The three of them led their horses to the front, and the cottage brothers had already seen it and shouted, "The master of Chen Zhai is here." When the two men saw them, they were stunned at first, and they pretended not to know them. The brother of the cottage took Chen Jihong's hand and said: "The three village owners are here, just waiting for you, Chen Zhai, and you alone, so that we can drink together." ”

Chen Jihong pulled him aside and asked him, "What's the matter with those two?"

"It's a friend of the owner of the village. He came in the morning, we didn't let in, he took out a piece of jade pendant, handed it to us, a brother took it up the mountain, the owner of the village saw it, knew that it was a friend to celebrate his birthday, to personally go down the mountain to greet. Worried that Childe would be in a hurry, he asked his brother to rush to the bottom of the mountain first and told him to wait. ”

I only heard Leng Yuhu shouting loudly: "Brother Chen, I treat you as a brother, but I didn't expect you to lead me to the robber's den." I'm a member of the government, and I don't mix with bandits. Let's go. ”

Chen Jihong saw Leng Yuhu suddenly turn his face, and he didn't know why, but when he saw him resolutely leaving, he hurriedly chased him down. Leng Yuhu didn't speak, Chen Jihong chased after him for a while, and when he saw that he was far away from everyone, the three of them stopped.

Chen Jihong asked, "Are you sure he is a spy?"

Leng Yuhu said: "I think he is a masked man." But he didn't use a sword, nor did he carry a bow or arrows. ”

Chen Jihong said: "It's not that he was holding an arrow at the time, and he was also disguised. ”

Leng Yuhu said: "Not like." Is it true that he and the masked man are accomplices? Think about it, when you saw the brother of the cottage just now, did he say that the three owners of the village have all come, and only waiting for you to come to drink, isn't there another owner of the village who has been killed? How can it be that the owners of the three villages have all come? I think this matter is not simple, the masked man disguised himself as Yuan Su, the owner of the village, and went up the mountain first; this person then tried to sneak into the cottage, and then they met to plot something. ”

Chen Jihong said worriedly: "Isn't that cottage very dangerous?"

Leng Yuhu said: "Not at the moment, you don't see the brothers in the cottage talking and laughing with them." Brother Chen, you hurry up the mountain and tell the chief village owner everything down the mountain, no matter what their plans, it is important to take precautions as soon as possible. ”

Chen Jihong was puzzled: "Brother Leng doesn't go up the mountain?"

Leng Yuhu said: "The masked man and these two both know me. I went up the mountain again at night. ”

Chen Jihong said: "Okay, just do it." ”

Chen Jihong turned and left. Here Leng Yuhu pulled the reins of the horse, held Ye Mucui's hand in one hand, and slowly walked along a ridge to the top of the mountain. This is the first time the two of them have met and been alone together, and they feel that everything is so hard-won.

Leng Yuhu looked down at Ye Mucui, Ye Mucui felt Leng Yuhu looking at him, raised his face and looked at Leng Yuhu with a smile, seeing that the latter was looking at him affectionately, he didn't feel blushing, and couldn't help but laugh out loud, turned his head, looked away and kept smiling.

Leng Yuhu felt Ye Mucui's hand heat up, and said with a smile: "What is Senior Sister laughing at?" Seeing that Ye Mucui didn't answer, he said, "Let's go to the top of this mountain." ”

Came to the top of the mountain, let go of the horse, and the two sat on the stone, the two were so close that they could feel each other's breath, Ye Mucui's cheeks were crimson, and his eyes were shining. Surrounded by mountains, the forest is verdant, the birdsong is crisp, a waterfall in the distance is like a jade dragon flying, and the sky is full of white clouds, floating leisurely.

Running around all day long, free at the moment, the two talked sweetly. Leng Yuhu's pride turned into a ball of tenderness for a while, and he persuaded himself in his heart: "It's a big deal, I will retire to the rivers and lakes, be with Cuimei, and ignore the battles and grievances on the rivers and lakes." Ye Mucang wants that Wudang to teach, I'll let it be good, I only study my Tianlei swordsmanship, and in the future, I will find a beautiful place with Cuimei that can't be seen, and live in seclusion, wouldn't it be good?"

Suddenly, Leng Yuhu thought: "I think like this in my heart, I don't know what Ye Mucang thinks? Who is he? I don't know? On the side of the couch, how can others sleep soundly? He will never let me go when he arrives." I still cut off the relationship with Ye Mucui earlier, the sooner, the better for Cuimei. The long pain is better than the short pain, I am afraid that Cui Mei will be heartbroken by then. Thinking about it, his brow couldn't help but furrow.

Ye Mucui was immersed in joy, she didn't expect these twists and turns, a pair of colorful butterflies flew in the distance, and flew until the two of them. The two of them stood motionless so that the two butterflies could dance in front of their eyes.

Ye Mucui asked, "Brother Yuhu, do you guess they are Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai?"

Leng Yuhu felt a pain in his heart, could this indicate that we would not have a good ending, it was time for Cui Mei to leave as soon as possible, so he said: "The two of them couldn't be together before they were alive, and they both died uncomfortably." Why shouldn't they meet in the first place, lest both of them suffer for the rest of their lives. ”

Ye Mucui said, "Aren't they together now?"

Leng Yuhu said: "Yes, they are together and very happy. ”

Two butterflies want to fly away. Suddenly, a big black butterfly flew from among the flowers at the bottom of the mountain, flew up to the two butterflies, and kept the male butterfly away, so that it could fly with the female.

Ye Mucui said: "This butterfly is hateful. ”

He got up, broke a flower branch, and went to fight the big black butterfly, which turned and fled, and flew down the cliff. The two butterflies here also flew away.

The happy times were easy, and soon it was getting dark, and the twilight was pouring up the hills, and the moon in the east had risen in mid-air.
