"What a Qingfeng Mountain!" About half a month later, Xiao Tang and his party had arrived at Qingfeng Mountain. Xiao Tang exclaimed when he saw the mountain peaks and the rugged scenery on all sides.
Looking around, the sky is as clear as water, blending with the greenery of Qingfeng Mountain. Mountain streams, rocks, creeks, and pine forests form a beautiful three-dimensional landscape painting. You can also faintly hear the sound of gurgling water and herds of elk. Jumping back and forth among the thorns, you can occasionally see wild foxes, yellow rabbits and other animals running through the forest.
"Now I can finally make a dozen tooth sacrifices!" Xiao Yi had no intention of looking at the scenery. He was busy on his way, eating whatever was available at the inns he passed. He had not eaten any meat in the past three or two days, and he could reach it with his eyes. There was a lot of game, and he couldn't help but get excited.
Xiao Yi raised his arms and shouted, and the white-feathered gyrfalcon on his shoulder spread its wings and soared into the sky. The gyrfalcon let out a clear whistle and dived again, flying towards the green fields of Qingfeng Mountain.
Several hounds also rushed into the valley, immediately breaking the tranquility of the valley. Elks and wild foxes spread their legs and fled. Only when the hounds ran far away did the barking gradually become inaudible in the valley.
It's just a good time to relax while hunting... Xiao Tang and Xiao Yi both took out two hunting bows, and each pulled the string at the two big yellow rabbits. Unexpectedly, Xiao Yi shot out an arrow with great interest. The sound of "plop" only shot into the soil a few dozen steps away. The yellow rabbit was frightened and disappeared into the grass after running and jumping for a few steps.
"Pfft!" Xiao An laughed loudly when he saw it. He sarcastically said to Xiao Yi: "You are so powerful with your ramming rack posture. I'm afraid that by the time you can shoot it, we will have starved to death!"
Xiao An pointed at Xiao Yi and laughed again, but suddenly shut up, because Xiao Tang shot an arrow over there, but the accuracy was not as good as Xiao Yi. The arrow cluster landed a few steps away from the hare, and the hare jumped. He jumped very far away, but to his annoyance he still stood still, straightened his long ears, and looked back at Xiao Tang with his dark eyes.
Xiao Yi, Xiao An, and Xue Yong looked around, pretending not to see Xiao Tang's embarrassment. Xiao Tang couldn't help but blush. He was not good at bows and arrows. He usually practiced riding and shooting with a wooden target, and now he tried to shoot. Hare, a very small target but very sensitive prey, has lost its accuracy.
"Bah! I still don't believe it!" Xiao Tang picked up his bow and shot another arrow. However, he was so excited that the arrow cluster hit the trunk of a tree with a "dong" sound, but the distance from the hare was even further away.
At this moment, there was a "whoosh" sound in the wind, and a sharp arrow shot straight from the mountain forest, like a speeding cold star piercing the hare. The rabbit was hit by the arrow, fluttered a few times, and then stopped moving. .
Xiao Tang and others were shocked. They looked into the mountain forest but saw no one. There was only their escort team waiting here. The arrow seemed to have been shot from a distance of a hundred steps!
After a while, he saw a young man carrying a long bow and wearing green-grey clothes walking out of the mountain forest. Only then did he realize that Xiao Tang and others were looking at him in surprise.
The young man looked at the bow in Xiao Tang's hand, and then at the rabbit that had been hit by an arrow. He realized what was going on, and smiled and said: "I'm sorry, I didn't know that this elder brother was also staring at that rabbit. I will give this hare to you."
When Xiao Tang saw that the young man was seventeen or eighteen years old, with sword-shaped eyebrows on his temples, red lips and white teeth, a slender waist, broad shoulders, and a muscular build, as well as a heroic spirit between his brows, Xiao Tang already had a good impression of him. Looking at him again
He had superb archery skills, so he cupped his fists and said, "This little brother is good at archery! Since I shot the hare, it should belong to me."
The heroic young man glanced at the escort flags on a team of escort vehicles and said: "Are you from the Xiao Family Escort Agency in Daming Prefecture? Are you going to stay in Qingfeng Town? You are a guest, so I will treat that hare as my gift to you.
A gift is just a token of gratitude to the landlord."
Xiao An felt a little unhappy when he saw that the young man was so popular when he came out. Then he looked at the young man's simple clothes and rolled his eyes and said: "You are so stingy. You want to be generous but you only send a rabbit. Our group is like this
There are more than thirty people, how to share the food?"
The young man raised his eyebrows, glanced at Xiao An, and laughed loudly: "This elder brother is right, but I lost my mind." After that, he looked up at the sky and said: "I will add some game meat to you.
Try it!”
Seeing that the young man was full of confidence, he put on the arrows and drew the full bow. He looked at it clearly and shot one arrow in the sky. The arrow flew into the sky and left the string very quickly! It flew straight out and hit the sky between two rows of flying geese.
The second one from the right, the wild goose fell straight down and landed not far from Xiao Tang and his group.
Xiao Tang and others were all shocked and impressed by the young man's accurate archery skills. Xiao An was even more dumbfounded, looking at the young man and unable to say a word anymore.
Seeing the expressions of Xiao Tang and his group, the young man showed a proud smile. Xiao Yi was sincerely convinced by the young man's archery skills, clasped his fists and said: "You are indeed very capable, I can't take advantage of you in vain, even if this wild goose is mine
Bought."
The young man smiled faintly and said, "No need. If I say I'll give it to you, then I'll give it to you. How much money do you need? We'll meet again in the future, so I'll take my leave!" Although this young man seems to be from a poor family, he can
But he had a strong character and arrogance of his own. After saying that, he turned around and left, looking cool and freehand.
"Wait a minute." Xiao Tang stopped the young man and asked, "Is this young man's surname Hua Mingrong, and is he a hero who is praised as Xiao Li Guang?"
The young man was startled. He turned around, clasped his fists towards Xiao Tang and said with a smile: "Xiao Li Guang is just a casual name from a fellow villager. I didn't expect that this elder brother is so well-informed and knows the name of a mediocre young man like me."
.”
Tianying star Xiao Li Guanghuarong, the hero of Liang Shanbo sits in the ninth place. Not only is he a good gun, but his bow is an invincible shooter in the world. He is also a handsome man who can compete with popular characters such as Yan Qing in Water Margin.
!
In Water Margin, Hua Rong served as Wuzhi Village in Qingfeng Village in Qingfeng Town. It turned out that he was still living in Qingfeng Town at this time. This is not surprising. The informal official position of Na Zhi Village is assigned by the inspection department of various places and is stationed at township checkpoints.
A security officer in an important place.
This Zhizhai is the same as the town Baozheng, Yamen officials, and the county's horse and infantry troops. They are basically staffed by local personnel. Xiao Tang also had this idea, and he also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to transport escorts from Jingdong to East.
Get to know some of the heroes of the Water Margin who are dormant in various places at this time.
Thinking of this, Xiao Tang suppressed his excitement, clasped his fists and said to Hua Rong: "I am Xiao Tang of Daming Palace, and my lifelong wish is to get to know the heroes of the world. I have heard for a long time that Xiao Li Guang Hua Rong is a hero, and I am honored to meet him this time.
, and I got what I wanted!”
Hua Rong's eyes lit up and he said happily: "It turns out that this eldest brother is the same name as my brother Song Gongming, who was praised as Hu Baoyi's Ren Xia Xiao Tang! I, Hua Rong, am so lucky to be able to meet two luxurious people in the world.
Covered person!"
Hearing what Hua Rong said, Xiao Tang immediately thought of the sacrifices Hua Rong made for Song Jiang in the Water Margin: He gave up his official position as Zhizhai and was willing to fall into the trap of a bandit in order to rescue Song Jiang;
Song Jiang bought people's hearts and took Qin Ming, the Thunderbolt Fire, under his command, and married his sister to Qin Ming on his own initiative. Hua Rong also had no complaints;
When they first arrived at Liangshan, in order to frighten Chao Gai and his party, Hua Rong used his magical skill of shooting wild geese from Liangshan. Chao Gai and others were shocked, and they agreed on the order of seating, which made the position of Song Jiang's group on Liangshan more stable;
Hua Rong served as Song Jiang's eight-horse cavalry and made great achievements in the war. After Song Jiang was recruited, he was poisoned by Cai Jing, Gao Qiu and others. After learning about it, Hua Rong, who had been appointed as the commander of Yingtian Mansion's military and horse capital, came to Liao.
Erwa hanged himself in front of Song Jiang's grave, willing to die with Song Jiang...
But, why is this?
Hua Rong can be said to be the one who paid the most for Song Jiang among the Liangshan heroes, and he never complained at all. Although Hua Rong is a person who values love and justice, what kind of favor did Song Jiang give him that made this little Li Guang respect and obey him so much?
To him?
Xiao Tang thought silently in his heart, and then said to Hua Rong: "I have been heartbroken for people like Duke Song and Ming Song Yasi for a long time! I am lucky enough to meet Brother Hua Rong this time. I must have a long talk and get close to each other!"
Hua Rong said happily: "Of course! I will lead the way for my brother. When we get to Qingfeng Town, I will make a good friend with him, please!"
Qingfeng Village is located at the intersection of Sancha Road in Qingzhou, and this place is called Qingfeng Town. Because there are three dangerous mountains on this Sancha Road, and there are strongmen cutting the paths to rob, so Qingfeng Village was set up in Qingfeng Town to prepare for any unexpected events. Here
There are between three and five thousand households, there are noisy markets, villages and temples, temples and markets, and there are also several small wooden stalls and teahouses and wine shops, which is quite lively on weekdays.
A girl of twelve or thirteen years old, who looked like a lotus in water, had just walked out of a wealthy family. Although she was still young, she had been doing needlework for a day in that wealthy family. It was already getting late, and the girl looked tired and was heading towards
Walk to your home.
After walking for dozens of steps, the girl suddenly heard a sad low cry. She looked around and saw a big yellow dog tied up outside the door of the restaurant next door. The big yellow dog's mouth was sealed, and its body was covered in stains and was howling.
She was shaking, and from time to time heart-wrenching screams came from her throat, with tears welling up in her dark eyes. She looked straight at the girl, her eyes full of pleading and begging for mercy.
The girl's heart seemed to be broken. At this moment, an old man came out of the wine shop and poured a basin of cold water on the big yellow dog. The big yellow dog howled and tried desperately to escape, but was tied tightly by the iron chain.
, the neck was strangled with blood marks.
The girl said "Ouch" and couldn't bear to look at it. She saw the old man sharpening his knife, getting a wooden basin to prepare for bleeding, and filling a basin of hot water for hair removal. Seeing the old man, he was about to kill the dog and sell it for meat. The knife in question was pointed at him.
The big yellow dog who was arguing with each other passed...
The girl mustered up her courage and said to the old man in a voice as loud as a mosquito: "Uncle, this dog is so pitiful... Can you let it live?"
The old man rolled his eyes strangely, and was about to curse, when he turned around and saw the frail and delicate girl. He swallowed all the dirty words that came to his lips, and said in a low voice: "Little girl from the Hua family,
That’s not what you said. My old grandson is open for business. Killing dogs and selling their meat is so commonplace. Is it possible that you want all my guests to be vegetarians?"
"But...but..." Hua Xiaomei seemed to be about to cry. Although the old man was right, she was a compassionate person, and now she was helplessly watching the poor big yellow dog die at the hands of a butcher's knife.
How could she bear it?
Old Man Sun let out a long sigh and said, "I'm sorry that you have such a hard life, living with your brother and having the heart of a Bodhisattva! Just go away. It's pure not to see you. I won't feel bad if I can't see you!"
Just when Hua Xiaomei was feeling sad, she suddenly heard someone say: "Old man, I bought that dog!"
