Chapter 99 Yanei hangs himself in the dense pine forest, the chivalrous woman burns Suolong Mountain (1)

A hundred miles away from Zhuozhou is Suolong Mountain.

Suolong Mountain winds and twists from west to east, looking like a dragon from a distance. Looking closer, the foot of the mountain is full of strange pines and cypresses, and the mountain is full of jagged rocks. The majesty of this mountain is sinister, and the precipitousness lurks murderous intent.

In the dense jungle at the foot of the mountain, there is an undulating path that winds up to the mountain. The dazzling sunlight shines down through the gaps between the branches. Most of the light is blocked by the shade of the trees. The only remaining ray of skylight illuminates the mountain.

The forest path was dappled with light.

On this small road with few people coming and going, a man and a woman appeared at this moment, followed closely by a majestic donkey. The two walked, talking and laughing loudly, seemingly not paying attention to the scenery in front of them.

He didn't care at all about the dangerous scene in the mountains.

The young man walked for a while and complained to the girl in purple beside him: "Little witch, I spent a lot of effort to snatch this little lady away from Member Lu, but you didn't let me talk to you all day long.

It's so close, do you want to exhaust me to death or are you jealous?"

The girl in purple snorted and said: "You stinky beggar, you are so embarrassed! I haven't even said to ride on the donkey to have a rest, but here is a grown man who wants to get on the donkey from morning to night. Unless you find me a donkey too.

A satisfying mount, otherwise you will never be able to ride it in your life!"

The young man sighed, spread his hands, and said: "The officials said last time that they would reward me with a golden gourd, and I could go to various prefectures and counties in the Song Dynasty to withdraw money at will. But so many days have passed in the blink of an eye.

I didn't even see a gourd seedling, what a forgetful person! We are too tight now, and the golden gourd is still coming, where can you ask me to get you a mount?"

The girl in purple said disapprovingly: "I don't care, girl. If you can't find him, you won't be able to ride on the donkey!"

The young man gave a wry smile and wanted to explain a few more words, but suddenly he heard a burst of sad crying from a man in the forest ahead. The young man and the girl in purple were both distracted by the crying.

The girl in purple pointed forward and asked: "This man is crying so miserably. Something serious must have happened. Should we draw our swords to help him when there is injustice on the road?"

The young man shook his head and said: "Little witch, how much have you meddle in your own business along the way? Obviously Zhuozhou is only two or three days away from here, but I force you to go out for more than ten days. If you continue to meddle in your own business, I'm afraid you will be troubled all your life.

We can’t reach Yongzhou!”

The girl in purple snorted coldly, "You stinky beggar, you keep claiming to be a young hero, but you don't even have the slightest bit of courage and courage. Apart from drinking and roasting chicken, what else do you do every day?"

The young man smiled slightly and said, "I can also grill fish."

"You!" The girl in purple pointed at the young man next to her, and was so angry that she couldn't speak. After a long while, she said: "You don't care if you want to, but I will take care of it anyway!" As she said that, she walked quickly towards the cry.

He ran in the direction he came from.

The young man sighed helplessly, took the reins of the donkey, and chased the girl in purple at a fast pace. As he chased quickly, he shouted loudly: "Hey, little witch, run slower! If you run again

So quickly, this young hero is on the donkey!"

The girl in purple stopped paying attention to him, and her pace became faster. She turned into the dense forest in an instant and ran towards the direction where the cry came from. Soon, she found a luxuriously dressed man in an open space in the forest.

An ugly young scribe.

I saw that this man was about thirty years old, with a flat face and a huge Adam's apple bulging outward. At first glance, I thought he had a tumor on his neck. He was looking sad and squatting on a dirt floor.

Beside the pit, while filling the pit with soil, he lamented: "Brothers, you have been like Wang Dan for many years, and you have been loyal to us father and son. Who would have expected that today, because of my incompetence, Wang Dan, you will be buried?"

Here! I no longer have the face to see your family, no longer have the face to see my father, and no longer have the face to see the people under my father's rule. I might as well die today. But I hope that after my death, I can offset my

Don’t implicate my father with the sins you commit!”

As he spoke, the pit was gradually filled up. Then he slowly stood up, took off the belt around his waist, and hung it on a crooked tree in front of him.

Upon seeing this, the girl in purple rushed over and was beside the man in an instant. Just as the man hung the belt on the tree, he suddenly saw a girl in front of him. He screamed in fright and fell back again and again, hitting the man behind him.

On a tree.

The young scribe only knew that there was a strongman behind him, so he could only say in a deep voice: "Thief, you took away the prisoner I escorted, and you still refused to let me go! I advise you to be lenient and merciful. If you dare to do so today,

Kill me, my father will not let you go!"

The girl in purple felt a little funny when she saw this, but when she saw that he was very frightened, she had to hold back her smile and said as softly as possible: "Young Master, I see that you are also from a wealthy family, why are you hiding here alone to seek death? You don't have to

I'm afraid, I am not the same as the king you talk about, so if you have anything, just tell me."

The young scribe was relieved when he saw that the girl in purple was not a bad person, and said, "Little lady, I am the son of Wang Hu, the supervisory censor. My name is Wang Dan and my courtesy name is Ziming. My father was demoted because he offended Lu Duoxun, a powerful official in the court.

When I got there, I became the prefect. My father loved the people as his own son and couldn't bear to see bandits running rampant here, so he often sent out the government's policemen to exterminate the bandits nearby. I just caught a group of thieves two days ago, and my father wanted me to practice.

I was asked to lead people to escort them outside the city and behead them. Unexpectedly, less than three miles out of the city, a group of gangsters appeared out of nowhere and robbed all the death row prisoners, leaving behind a sentence saying that if we

If you have the courage, go to Suolong Mountain to ask for someone. According to the laws of the Song Dynasty, losing a condemned prisoner is a capital crime. Even if my father is the prefect, he can't save me. So in desperation, I had to take people to Suolong Mountain to ask for someone, but my men arrested

They were no match for them. They had to die and run away. Seeing that there was no way to survive, I decided to die."

The girl in purple nodded and asked: "What is the name of the owner of Suolong Village? Who are the prisoners they kidnapped? You don't have to worry, as long as I take action, I will surely catch the lost criminals, even the thieves on the mountain

, I also sent them away together!"

Wang Dan looked at the girl in front of him in disbelief, and then said for a long time: "The prisoners they kidnapped were all bandits from Lishan. The leader was named Liu Qi, who was nicknamed Jinmaohou, and there was also Shen, a giant turtle in the waves."

Nine, and the rest are their minions, a total of twenty-three people. The leader of the village on Suolong Mountain is even more famous, named Master Jin Baozi Zhang. These people are all very skilled in martial arts. Girls, please be careful!

"

Without waiting for the girl in purple to reply, the young man led the donkey and walked quickly, "Hahaha, I don't think I'm such a great person, but it turns out they are a group of lynx wild beasts. I'm hungry, so I'll use them to drink!"

Seeing that the two of them didn't take the bandits seriously at all, Wang Dan asked curiously: "Excuse me, who are you two? Can you tell me your name so that I can rest assured?"

The young man slapped his chest and said: "My name is Wan Jianfeng, and I am the son of Wan Mengsheng, the owner of Yinfeng Villa. This little witch is called Murong Yunyao, and she is the daughter of Murong Yanzhao, the founding father of the Song Dynasty. Not to mention We are said to be wise, brave, and courageous. Just telling us the names of our ancestors is enough to scare these bandits out of their wits!"

Wang Dan was a scholar. He had never heard of Wan Mengsheng, but he had heard a little about Murong Yanzhao. He said doubtfully: "Do you really mean what you say? If you two can really help me arrest Liu Qi and Shen Jiu." When I come back, I will definitely repay my two benefactors."

The two nodded and turned around to go up the mountain. At this time, a slightly slovenly man walked out of the forest and blocked the way of the two of them with an arrogant look. The three of them all looked at the person with caution, but saw that this man had a long hair on his waist. Sword, with a hard bow and a pot of sharp arrows on his back, he is very handsome, with a sense of heroism in his elegance, and a hint of perverse arrogance in his expression. The only drawback is that he is wearing a loose royal blue robe, and he is also very handsome. It was full of wine stains and gave people a somewhat slovenly look.

The man came closer, smiled coldly, and said, "Who said he was Wan Mengsheng's son just now? Why have I never heard Master say that he has a son?"

Wan Jianfeng was startled when he heard this, with a very excited look on his face, "You...what did you say? My father is really still alive, and he accepted a disciple as big as you? Then where is he now? Tell me quickly!"

The man said with disdain: "Who do you think you are, and why should I tell you? You just look a little similar to my master, so you came here to pretend to be his son. You are really shameless!"

Wan Jianfeng has always been free and easy, not caring about anything. But when he heard the news about his father, his expression was extremely excited, and even his body was trembling slightly. He grabbed the person's hand and said urgently: " Good brother! Tell me quickly, where is my father?"

The man pointed to the wine gourd on Wan Jianfeng's waist and said: "You didn't even invite me to take a sip of wine. Why should I tell you the truth to a stranger like you? What if you are both officials of the imperial court? If I say If so, wouldn’t Master be in danger?”

Wan Jianfeng hurriedly untied the wine gourd and handed it to him: "Brother, you can drink it. It happens that there is good wine today. What's in it is..."

Before Wan Jianfeng could finish speaking, the man grabbed the wine gourd, opened the seal and took a sniff. Then his eyes suddenly lit up, and he laughed and said, "This brother has good taste, and what's inside is actually the best Dukang!" As he spoke, he eagerly raised his neck and drank every drop of the wine in the gourd.

Wan Jianfeng saw that he could identify the type of wine just by sniffing it, and he couldn't help but admire him. He smiled and said: "If you drink my wine, we will be friends. I don't know how to call this brother, but you are really my father's." Disciple?"

The man smiled slightly and handed the wine gourd back to Wan Jianfeng, "It remains to be verified whether you are Wan Mengsheng's son, but I am Wan Mengsheng's apprentice, but it is true. My name is Zhang Yong, and I am named Fuzhi. I was fortunate to have Wan Mengsheng as my teacher and studied with him for several years. One day, a Taoist priest came to my home, who seemed to be an old friend of my master. The two of them talked for a long time every day, which seemed like they were reunited after a long separation. Later, the master came to his home. I was abducted by this Taoist priest, who said he was wandering in the clouds. It has been three to five years since I left, and I have never seen my master again."

Wan Jianfeng was a little discouraged when he heard this, and sighed: "I thought that with the news about my father, I could find out his whereabouts, but who would have thought that his father is as unreliable as his son, but the one who kidnapped me is also

Girl, he is such a nice old man, he even went to play with Lao Niubi! It seems that my happiness was in vain, but it was a pity that I had a bottle of fine Dukang wine!"

Zhang Yong smiled and said: "Brother, are you really the son of your mentor? My master is not as stingy as you. He will never be upset because his friend drank a pot of wine from him! I once heard my master say that he has

There is a wife named Meng Han, but I have never heard him mention that he has a son? Could it be that when the master and his wife separated for some reason, the master did not know that his wife was pregnant, so he did not know that there were still other things in this world.

have you?"

Wan Jianfeng said: "Brother, you are quite accurate! You are such a stupid person, it would be a pity not to be an official."

Zhang Yong looked at Wan Jianfeng sympathetically and patted his shoulder, "Brothers, don't be discouraged, mountains and rivers will not change. You father and son, our master and disciple will always meet one day!" After he finished speaking, he pointed at Wang Dan.

, said: "I have learned swordsmanship with my master for several years, but have never tried the edge. Why don't we go up the mountain together and help this brother Wang settle this matter."

Murong Yunyao smiled and said to Zhang Yong: "I haven't fought with anyone for a few days. Looking at Brother Zhang's attitude, he wants to kill all the bandits alone. Isn't it boring for me?"

Zhang Yong smiled when he heard this: "Don't worry, girl! Master Zhang, Liu Qi, and Shen Jiu are three people, and we are also three people here. They happen to be one for each, so everyone can fight!"

Murong Yunyao nodded, looked at Wan Jianfeng and Zhang Yong, and said: "Then it's settled, you don't want to eat too much, otherwise I will start training with you if my hands are itchy!"

Wang Dan, who had been silent for a long time, had a complicated expression on his face at this moment. He looked at the three people in front of him as if they were monsters. He had been dealing with bandits with his father a lot in the past few years, and he had personally seen the ferocious policemen who usually behaved in the Yamen.

, how to be as afraid of bandits as tigers, occasionally there are a few heroes who are not afraid of death, and they risk their lives to fight against bandits. I have never seen bandits treated as kittens and puppies like this, and I feel very sad.

Surprised.

He was about to step forward and give them a few more instructions, telling them how terrifying the bandits were. But before he could speak, the three of them had already tapped their toes and disappeared like three gusts of wind. Wang Dan looked at the three of them just now

Wherever I stood, I was no longer surprised, but felt a sense of reverence.
