Xiao Yunfan rode a maroon horse on the avenue, and there were solid steep rock walls on both sides of the avenue. They were covered with moss and vines. From a distance, they looked lush and green, and they looked quiet. However, at this moment, he had no intention of looking at the mountain scenery on both sides.

In his heart, he was thinking of someone, someone who was obsessed with him. At this moment, he wished he could fly back to the person with his wings. As soon as he closed his eyes, his pretty face bloomed like a peony, and even the words she had said seemed to keep going back in his ears.

When Xiao Yunfan thought of her, his heart couldn't help but feel warm. The Emperor of Shenzong had promised to pardon the Feng family's sins, which means that Feng Miaoqing would no longer have to hide and restore his identity openly. Thinking of the encounter with her on Bashan that day, everything about Shennong Valley during his trip to Sichuan seemed to be a different life.

The past two years seem to be more exciting than he has ever lived before. In addition to being thrilling, he has also met many new friends. Yin Shisan, Bai Ruoxuan, Feng Huishu...

Thinking of all kinds of thoughts, he said to himself, "I don't know if Yin Shisan's eyes can be cured? Miss Bai's habit of living under the Huansha Lake? What exactly does Feng want to do when he reaches the Central Plains?" Suddenly, he changed his mind: "Well, these old friends will meet if they are destined to be together. What kind of gift do I want to see now is Qing'er. When I see Qing'er, what gift do I want to give her?

She is a lady from a noble family. She has lived a luxurious life since she was a child. She has never seen any treasures. By the way, I might as well give it to her the token given to me by the emperor. After seeing Qing'er, she and I should go back to Sichuan to renovate Feng Shibo's tomb. Later, we should go to Huashan to visit three seniors, who treated me as much as a mountain.

These days I have been entangled with the scum of the Guixiang Sect, which must have attracted the hearts of the three old people. Uncle Fan’s dishes are the most delicious, Uncle Hou’s jokes are the most funny, and Aunt Yun’s clothes are the most gorgeous.

I have a relationship with Qing'er, so I should get married as soon as possible. Now that my master is gone, I can only ask the three of them to organize the marriage for me. But these are my wishful thinking. I wonder if Qing'er will agree? Qing'er said that she will be with me for life, and I think she will agree.

Now that she is lonely and helpless, I should take care of her a hundred times. With the care of the water girl in Xuannv Palace, no one will make things difficult for her for the time being."

There was a fork in front of him, two roads, left and right. He tied the reins of the horse and walked slowly with his horse. Suddenly, a group of strong men with thick hands and feet came towards him. There were about a dozen people, some with longbows hanging on their backs, some with hemp ropes hanging on their shoulders, some with steel forks in their hands, some with net bags on their backs, and some with yellow-haired dogs.

Xiao Yunfan felt suspicious and said to himself: "Are these men so dressed up? " He got offended by a bandit?" He rolled under his saddle, clasped his fists and asked with a smile: "Brother, I want to ask you where this place is?"

The man said, "This place is called Toad Valley." Xiao Yunfan said, "When should I go to Weihui, it should I take the road ahead?" The man said, "When I want to go to Weihui, that's far. You can take the road on your left and walk thirty miles to Sishui Town to inquire."

Xiao Yunfan asked again: "Brother, I think you are going to hunt? I guess they are fighting tigers?" The man's face darkened and said: "What we are going to fight is not a tiger or a wild boar but a mountain ghost?"

Xiao Yunfan said strangely, "What mountain ghost?" A big man with a flat nose beside the man said, "The mountain ghost is a monster that has appeared in this area recently. It's so powerful. Two of the brothers who went to catch the mountain ghost last time were bitten to death, and one was seriously injured.

My fortune is very lucky and I only caught one of that thing.

I fainted. Otherwise, you would definitely not see me today."

As he said that, the man untied his clothes and saw three long scars on his broad chest. Xiao Yunfan looked at the scar carefully and thought to himself: "The scar on this person's chest cannot be fake. There are no mountain ghosts in this world. I think it is probably a martial arts master who hides in the mountains and forests."

The leading man urged: "Fu Laoqi, don't show off here, we have to go to the forest to make some arrangements." Xiao Yunfan frowned slightly, and was interested in the matter of this mountain ghost. His eyes turned and said: "This big brother, I'm not talented, I'm willing to catch the mountain ghost with you."

The leading man said seriously: "No, no, catching mountain ghosts is not a joke. We broke several brothers last time, and this time we may not be able to please. We are hunters here, and we originally made a living by hunting and buying some fur.

Mountain ghosts appear and hurt people everywhere. As everyone is about to make a living, they will come to deal with this monster. The guests are in a hurry to go on their way, so it's better to get on the road earlier."

Xiao Yunfan said: "Brother, I love the most fun, you should take me with you. Don't worry, I will never cause trouble for you."

The leader shook his head and said, "No, we have been wandering around the mountains for a while and still have the monster's words. Don't mess with me, as a foreigner."

Xiao Yunfan thought to himself, "This man probably thinks that I don't have any skills. I must have shown my hand to convince him." He smiled and said, "Brother, I'll make a bet with you. Bet that so many of you can't win me. If you win, I'll give you this horse. If you lose, I'll take me to see the mountain ghost, okay?"

Before the leader could answer, a yellow-faced man beside him leaned into his ear and said, "Brother Tong, I see that this man's head is probably squeezed by the door before he said such stupid words. I think so many of us will not be able to beat him. His horse is worth at least 200 taels, and 200 taels of silver is enough for our village to live a year."

The leader was moved, but he said, "The horse is good, but it's their own. If we do our business, why should we bet on other people's things?" The yellow-faced man said, "Brother Tong, it's him who wants to bet with us, not by force him. Think about it, Dad Lu has no children and is ill now, and is still waiting to go to the town to get medicine. If we win this horse, can we exchange it for money to treat him?"

His words mean that the man surnamed Tong was in his heart. These hunters in Toad Gul were all benefited from Mr. Lu when they were young, and his ability to hunt with Tong Daniu was also taught by Mr. Lu. Although the village has arranged people to take care of him, everyone can't afford much money to hire a doctor together.

After thinking about it, Tong Daniu felt that Huang Haoma was right, so he said, "You really keep your word?" Xiao Yunfan said, "A gentleman's words are as good as a horse." Huang Haoma saw Tong Daniu relaxed and said, "We don't care whether it is chasing or not, as long as you keep your word."

Xiao Yunfan pointed to a man with a hemp rope on his back and said, "Please pull the hemp rope open, give one end to the bottom and the other end to you." As he said, he stretched his feet to draw a straight line on the ground. He said, "If you guys pull this line down, I will lose."

Tong Daniu ordered everyone to put the weapons in their hands on the roadside first. Everyone held the hemp rope in both hands. Xiao Yunfan took the hemp rope and wrapped it around an arm and smiled: "Are you ready?"

When Tong Daniu saw that he only used one arm, he said, "The guest looks down on people too much. So many of us use force together, your arm must be broken."

Xiao Yunfan smiled when he saw him kind-heartedly

: "Brother, let's talk first, so I will use this arm to compete with you." Tong Daniu said angrily: "Okay, brothers, everyone will follow my orders. I will count one, two, three, and we will work hard together." Everyone agreed in unison.

Xiao Yunfan secretly used his true energy and stole a horse. The man opposite exerted his strength together to pull Xiao Yunfan across the line. The muscles on his arms were tangled and exerted all his strength. Tong Daniu saw that Xiao Yunfan was calm and could not help but aroused a sense of arrogance in his heart. He held the hemp rope in his hands and pulled it back. No matter how hard everyone tried, Xiao Yunfan's feet remained motionless like a thousand pounds of rock.

Huang Toad shouted: "Brothers, let's work harder, we must never lose." Hearing this, the men gathered up their strength and their cheeks turned red. Xiao Yunfan said: "It's time for me to exert force." He saw his forearm slowly pulling back, and everyone couldn't stop sliding forward. Beads of sweat were oozing from Tong Daniu's forehead, but the hemp rope in his hand was approaching the other party inch by inch, and he was extremely shocked.

Xiao Yunfan pulled hard, and everyone was like a grasshopper on a thread, and he actually pulled it across the thread lightly. Tong Daniu leaned forward, and everyone also threw himself forward. Oh, the sound of ah was endless. Xiao Yunfan threw down the hemp rope, clapped his palm and said, "How is it, everyone can lose?"

Tong Daniu stood up, patted the dust on his body, and praised him with a thumbs up: "Brother, I am a god who has descended to earth. So many of us are not your opponents. OK, we lost, we agree to your request."

Xiao Yunfan walked forward and bowed, "This big brother keeps his word, which shows his straightforwardness. Brothers are not talented, I would like to go with you to meet this mountain ghost." Everyone walked up and praised Xiao Yunfan, and admired him one by one. Tong Daniu asked the yellow toad to lead the horse for Xiao Yunfan, and he walked in front to chat with Xiao Yunfan.

After the two exchanged names, Xiao Yunfan said, "Brother Tong, I don't know what is the power of this mountain ghost?" Tong Daniu couldn't help but frown. He sighed, "This mountain ghost hid in the morning and came out at night. He always did evil in the village, either biting the beast to death or hurting people. Although there are many hunting players in our village, they are always helpless about this monster.

After thinking about it, everyone decided to set up several more traps on the path where monsters were necessary to travel, so as to respond to changes in the same way. However, this monster is really amazing. Many of our previous traps were destroyed one by one by one by it."

Xiao Yunfan pondered: "It's strange, could it be that someone in the village colluded with the monster and destroyed the mechanism in advance, which made you lose the effort?" Tong Daniu shook his head and said: "It is impossible. The people who set the traps are our own people. Since the village was attacked by the monster, they have sent male councils to patrol every day. If someone is not here, I can't not know."

Xiao Yunfan said, "Did anyone see the monster?" Tong Daniu said, "The monster seems not big, but it moves very quickly. It used to be haunted at night, and everyone has only seen a pair of green eyes."

Xiao Yunfan nodded and said, "How long has this monster bothered you?" Tong Daniu said, "That's three months ago, the lamb from Aunt Luo's house in the village was bitten off, and then the twelve chickens from Aunt Xu's house were eaten overnight." When he spoke, his expression was very excited, and the veins on his forehead were bulging out like earthworms.

Everyone walked for a while and came to a dense forest. The forest was full of towering ancient trees, and the dense branches and leaves covered the sky. A smell of moldy, rotten and dampness only penetrated the nostrils.

The yellow toad tied the horse to the trunk of a tree and rushed to Xiao Yunfan and said, "Brother, this horse cannot get in." Xiao Yunfan said, "Then I'll help me take care of it first, brother."
