Early the next morning, Qunhao continued to march eastward with the moon tribute, and the officials in the places along the way knew that Liu Gonggong's men would come to rob the tribute, and they were afraid that something would happen in their own jurisdiction, so most of them passed the buck to each other, urging him to go quickly, and three days later, he arrived at the territory of Yu County. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info The local county order was very polite, entertained the group of heroes and had a big meal, and said: "General, there are many mountains and mausoleums in the county, and it is difficult to travel by land, fortunately, the Wei River runs through the north and south, and the subordinates learned that the imperial tribute is coming, and specially hired twelve small boats, and the general did not give up, and boarded the ship as soon as possible." Gu Yuecong saw the pragmatic official for the first time, and arched his hand: "Thank you, sir." The county ordered: "Don't dare, don't hide it from the general, take the waterway, one is thoughtful, and the other is fast." After a pause, he said: "The subordinates are by no means cursing the Yugong for an accident, but once the Wulin Alliance comes to attack, whether it can protect the Yugong or not, whether the subordinates are doing their best or not, this is a thankless task." ”

When Gu Yuecong heard this, he lamented that the style of officialdom prevarication and inaction has been in trouble for a long time, and the world is average. Turned to Liu Shaoying and said, "Set off overnight." ”

Qunhao checked the boat, carried the tribute to the boat, and went along the Wei River to Guyuan, although the Wei River channel is slender, after all, when it reaches the water, there is no need to worry too much about Gao Jinlun's raid, everyone has a good night's sleep this day.

After the third day passed the Guyuan jurisdiction, Gu Yuecong immediately asked Liu Shaoying to write a letter, asking Bai Miaofeng, Lin Zhonghuai and the six brothers of the Wu family to leave the hanging gall cliff in Guyuan and go to the third ambush place - Mogao Mountain.

The Heiku River has a wide field of vision, the heroes stand on the boat, see the north wind whisking, the river is vast, and the morale is boosted. Ouyang Yan said: "The twelve boats are too scattered, let's change to a big ship." At that moment, he anchored and docked, hired two big boats, commanded by Ouyang Yanjue and Gu Yuecong, and crossed the Heiku River, and on the evening of the seventh day, Qunhao spent the night on the river.

After days of running, the heroes took advantage of the moon worship when they were on the water to recuperate, but fortunately, they did not encounter a big attack from the Wulin League along the way. Every day that passed, Gu Yuecong was more relieved, and then he fell asleep. On this day, he slept until midnight, and suddenly heard a few very soft wings in the air, Gu Yuecong was smart, and immediately woke up and said happily: "Uncle Bai has replied." "Coming out of the cabin, I saw a big eagle eagle circling and flying on the boat, and when the big eagle saw Gu Yuecong, his wings were slightly retracted, and he slowly fell to this side of the car. Gu Yuecong sighed: "This carving is not only very human, but also has excellent eyesight, and can recognize me at a glance in the dark night." The eagle rested on the side of the ship, and stopped moving. Gu Yuecong patted lightly on the back of the big eagle, the eagle grabbed the side with one claw, and raised it lightly with one claw, Gu Yuecong smiled and said: "Good eagle, do you want to do it for me?" Reaching out and gently removing the secret letter tied to the leg, the eagle "cooed" a few times, stretched out his head and rubbed lightly in Gu Yuecong's palm, and his wings fluttered, rushing straight into the sky.

Return to the cabin and open the secret letter. The letter said that Bai Lin and the six Wu brothers had reached Mo Gao Mountain six days ago, and now everything has been arranged, just waiting for Gu Yuecong to lead Gao Jinlun's army to come, and also said: "Mo Gao Mountain has been one of the boundaries between the Western Regions and the Central Plains since ancient times. After reading the letter, Gu Yuecong looked at the lamp and thought darkly: "In this way, Gao Jinlun will definitely rob the tribute before the Hero League crosses Mogao Mountain." "Unfold the map on the table, and take a closer look, Mogao Mountain is about one hundred and twenty miles away from where he is, and he can reach it the day after tomorrow, except for the waterway, which is blocked by mountains on both sides. Xin said: "One hundred and twenty miles, a two-day trip, it is best if the Wulin League does not come, once he comes, he must think of ways to lead him to Mogao Mountain, and he must hit it in one shot." He thought again: "I don't know how Shaolin is doing, more than ten days have passed, even if the heroes are dismissed at this time, Gao Jinlun will definitely not have time to recover the tribute." He burned the secret letter, put away the map, and said in his heart: "This matter is not trivial, and it must be discussed with the sect leader." "Get up and go to the boat that Ouyang Yan is taking.

The two ships clinged to each other so that they could take care of each other. Gu Yuecong walked out of the cabin, and a cold wind carrying the mud and smell of the river came to his face. In the dead of night, the river waves crash against the boat, the sound is high and low, and there is a "snoring" from time to time in the distance...... Grunt...... "Bird calls." In order not to wake up the heroes, Gu Yuecong walked softly all the way, and after a while, he reached the stern of the boat, beckoning the captain to put down the boat and ferry to another boat...... Grunt...... "Three bird calls, these three calls can be made once, stop for a while, and then call twice in a row." Gu Yuecong stopped the boatman from letting go of the boat, and said in a low voice: "Boatman, is this bird crying strange?" The boatman listened for a long time and said: "The general is suspicious, as soon as the Heiku River arrives at night, there will be curch-tailed pelicans chirping, nothing strange." Gu Yuecong nodded, but he was not at ease in his heart, and said: "I'll release the boat, it's windy here, you go to the cabin to rest." ”

The boatman left, Gu Yuecong double-footed, boarded the mast from the left side of the ship, stood on a high place and looked down, under the stars and moon, there was no boat, and he wondered in his heart: "If the army of the Wulin League is coming, there will never be a boat without dispatching, is it really that I am suspicious?"

As soon as he took a few steps, he saw several black shadows in front of him converging from the left and right sides, and after a few jumps, he lay motionless on the outside of the ship.

When Gu Yuecong saw it, he knew that although the opponent was agile, his martial arts were mediocre, and he counted a little, and there were seven people in total. Gu Yuecong quietly went to the sail boom and thought: "There are no boats around, these seven people must have dived, and they must be very good at water, and who is it seemingly?" "Looking around, I just saw a rope with a thick arm rolled up half a zhang, four or five zhang long, immediately covered the past, picked up the long rope, tied one end to the head of the pile, pulled the other end, and tiptoed to the other side on the side of the ship, this rope was just horizontal in front of the seven people, as long as the enemy jumped on the boat, none of them wanted to escape.

As soon as Gu Yue Congfang was in a position, he heard a low voice: "Third brother, take a closer look, there is really someone we are looking for on the boat?" Another said: "Today I saw many nuns standing on the boat, and many of them were still leaning on the side of the boat, sticking out their bare heads and vomiting. The first man said: "I asked you if you saw Ling'er?" The third brother said: "You can see clearly, Ling'er is next to the old nun, and she is obviously holding her hostage." Another said, "Boss, give the order, and we will rush to the boat now and rescue my daughter." The old avenue: "Wait, there are many dog officials in this group, and there are only seven of us, so we can only take advantage of the situation and save Ling'er." ”

Gu Yuecong was shocked when he heard this: "This group of people is coming for Xiaohuang Nunnery? Who is Ling'er? Xiaohuang Nunnery has always had no quarrel with the world, and there are few enemies in the rivers and lakes, how can they form a bond with these locals?" Just thinking to himself, he suddenly heard the old avenue: "Go into the water!" Hearing several extremely soft sounds of water, all seven of them went into the water.
