The sun is high.

At the foot of Mingyang Mountain, the martial arts heroes finally set off from Mingyang Town after eating and drinking.

There were only a few hundred people in the team at the beginning, but as people from all directions merged in, it gradually grew to a size of a thousand people. Everyone moved slowly and noisily along the winding and narrow mountain road.

Viewed from a high place, the team looks like a winding snake slowly approaching its prey on the top of the mountain.

On top of the mountain.

A slightly fat rich man wearing a military uniform was looking at everything down the mountain indifferently. This man was Pei Wushuang, the owner of Mingyang Mountain who was regarded by everyone as prey.

Beside him, stood an old man with a Chinese character face. The old man had white hair and beard. He was wearing a brocade robe with the word "alliance" embroidered on the chest of the brocade robe. It was Di, the leader of the Sanqing Alliance who had never been seen.

Qing.

The two protagonists who were supposed to fight to the death today were standing respectfully behind a middle-aged man in Confucian uniform.

"Xia used martial arts to break the ban. This time the court suppressed the martial arts bandits, and the two of them made great contributions."

As he spoke, the middle-aged man in Confucian uniform cupped his fists in the direction of Liang Jing and said:

"I will go to the meeting to express my gratitude to Emperor Liang and ask for merit for both of you."

"Thank you, the Governor, for your cultivation!"

Pei and Di quickly bowed and saluted, then kneeled in the direction of the capital and said:

"Long live my emperor!"

……

On the winding mountain road, two figures, one black and one white, were riding on horses, hanging at the end of the team as leisurely as if they were outing.

The two people on horseback were nibbling today's apples. Shen Bi glanced at Situ Mingyue curiously, wondering where this girl got so many apples.

"Brother Shen, when did you come back? Why didn't you go back to the house to sleep?"

Shen Bi almost choked when he took a bite of the apple. He ate it quickly and threw the core to Baima: "You snore so loudly that I can't sleep."

"You're talking nonsense, I never fight..." Situ Mingyue was about to defend, but suddenly smiled and joked: "Oh, I see, Brother Shen, you are shy."

"Haha, am I shy? The bride has been married three or four times."

"Nonsense! How can anyone marry three or four times?"

......

Most of the people at the end of the team came here to watch the fun, and they were not in a hurry. Like Shen Bi and the other two, they were busy gossiping:

"Have you heard? Yesterday, dozens of people from the Sanqing Alliance were killed. The death was extremely miserable. It is said that it was Mingyang Shandong's hand."

"How could Master Pei be so bold? He doesn't want Mingyang Mountain anymore?"

"The rabbit bites people when it's anxious. How can you not resist now that someone is bullying you?"

"So Pei Wushuang won't hand over the treasure map today?"

"If he makes love happily, will you and I still have fun to watch?"

"That's true."

......

Situ Mingyue bit the apple and glanced secretly at the people beside her. No wonder no one investigated yesterday. It turned out that the master of Mingyang Mountain took the blame.

The mountain became steeper and steeper, and the horses could no longer climb up. Everyone in front abandoned their horses and walked.

Shen Bi held down Situ Mingyue who was about to dismount with everyone.

"Brother Shen, don't we go up?"

"There is an ambush."

The figures that appeared to be officers and soldiers in the sky yesterday appeared here again.

"Ambush?"

Situ Mingyue exclaimed, these two words reminded her of the bloody memories of yesterday.

"So, the Three Pure Alliance..."

"That's right, it's what you think. It's probably the same for Mingyang Mountain. They all surrendered to the imperial court."

There is a difference between conquering a country and defending it. Today's leaders don't need so many unstable factors.

"Should we remind you?"

The little girl was still kind, but Shen Bi didn't reply. He was only here to hide the treasure map and didn't want to worry about other things, especially since his left arm has not yet recovered. If he attracts other trialists, he will Very troublesome.

The two of them just sat quietly on the horse, listening to the crowd on the mountain changing from noisy to screaming, disbelief, cursing, begging for mercy, and screaming.

The smell of blood soon wafted in, but this time Situ Mingyue did not vomit. There was a hint of unbearability, confusion, and maturity in her eyes.

"Wait here, don't run around, I'll come back as soon as I go."

When Situ Mingyue turned around, Shen Bi's figure was no longer on the horse.

……

Mingyang Mountain is still bleeding, and the main hall is already full of people drinking wine.

"Thanks to the Governor's strategizing, we can give the people a clear sky. On behalf of Di, the people would like to toast the Governor."

"Me too!"

Seeing the old man Di Qing take the horse first, Pei Wushuang became so anxious that his hometown dialect came out.

"Haha, Lord Di, I need to change my title from now on and call myself my official..."

The middle-aged man in Confucian uniform only said half of what he said before he stopped abruptly because there was one more person in the hall.

"Where is the treasure map?"

Shen Bi looked at the middle-aged man in Confucian uniform in front of him with interest. He believed that this man would make the right choice.

"Presumptuous! How dare you disrespect the Governor..."

Before Di Qing could finish speaking, his head suddenly exploded, staining the entire table with delicacies. Obviously, he was flattering the wrong person this time. Shen Bi was already very unhappy with the Sanqing Alliance, but this time it happened just right. Kill him.

Pei Wushuang on the other side was about to blurt out the word "I", but he swallowed it back, and his slightly fat body was shaking non-stop.

Shen Bi glanced briefly: "What a pity."

I don’t know whether it’s a pity for the delicious food or a pity for the words Pei Wushuang didn’t say.

The middle-aged man in Confucianism did not dare to delay and quickly presented a brocade box: "Senior, please take a look at it."

Shen Bi took it, and it contained a treasure map.

"Where is this?"

The middle-aged man in the Confucian uniform quickly presented the prepared map of Southern Xinjiang: "Senior, please see, the location marked on the treasure map is in the east of the rainforest of Southern Xinjiang. This is a canyon with countless poisonous barriers and poisonous insects. It is almost a desperate place. ”

As expected, he has been in the officialdom, and his thoughtfulness and discernment are better than many people.

Shen Bi glanced at the map carefully and wrote down the location. Then he looked at the middle-aged man in Confucian uniform and said softly: "What a pity."

The middle-aged Confucian scholar didn't understand what Shen Bi meant, but he didn't dare to ask.

Shen Bi turned to Pei Wushuang and asked, "Did your adoptive father leave it behind?"

"Senior, he is my adoptive father!" Pei Wushuang's mind raced, fearing that he would offend this man.

"Why not send it to you directly?" Shen Bi asked the previous question.

"My adoptive father told me that I have evil intentions and that this treasure contains extremely powerful restrictions. I have sent many people there, but they have never returned." Pei Wushuang did not dare to hesitate and quickly answered truthfully.

"Haha, I didn't see the wrong person in this life."

......

In less than half a cup of tea, Shen Bi reappeared on horseback.

Situ Mingyue's eyes lit up when she saw Shen Bi coming back, and then she seemed to have thought of something and asked hesitantly:

"Brother Shen, are you leaving?"

"Well, we've finished watching the show and got the treasure map. It's time to go."

"My father is the great Situ of the dynasty. Will you come to Liang Jing to see me?"

"This is the last apple, for you."
