Chapter 13 Up the Mountain
After leaving the Zhou family, facing the envious gaze of pedestrians on the street, Xiang Yang slowly walked out of the county town with the yellow horse, while explaining to Fu Dachun.
"Dachun, please put away my waist brand and my goose-ling knife, and take them back to your house first, and then go to Dongcheng Gate to pick me up in the evening."
Xiang Yang took out the constable's waist card from his arms. This thing is a time bomb for him who is about to go up the mountain. He must not be brought with him. Even the goose-ling sword in his hand can easily reveal his identity, so he handed it to Fu Dachun.
He is now carrying a thick-backed long sword found by Zhou Fugui's family. He looks big, but it is not as sharp as the Yan Ling's blade, which is enough for Xiang Yang.
"Brother Xiang, don't worry, I will keep it well, and you must be careful, but what I am not happy about is that Zhou Fugui goes back on his word. He clearly said that if anyone saves his daughter, he will marry his daughter to him as his wife and send it to three tea shops."
Fu Dachun put away his waist card and felt a little troubled with the Yanling Knife in his hand, but his rosy face showed that he was in a good mood. After all, he was a half-aged child, which was fun. This Yanling Knife is a powerful weapon to kill people. Can you play with it for the afternoon?
Xiang Yang didn't care, "Don't worry about these things, and whether Ms. Zhou can be saved is a different story. Don't think too well about things. Okay, I'll leave first. Be careful yourself. Don't rely on the guys in your hands to show off when you have nothing to do."
As he said that, Xiang Yang turned over the horse, slapped his hips, and rushed out of the city. Pedestrians on the road avoided him, leaving Fu Dachun standing there with envy on his face. When can he ride his horse?
However, after getting on the horse, Xiang Yang did not go out of the city directly, but went around and came to an outside of a literary museum selling four treasures of the study. Seeing that no one was there, he got off the horse and pulled out the letter written by Zhou Fugui to tear it apart.
As the saying goes, you must not have the intention to harm others, but you must be careful of others. Xiang Daniu killed two bandits in Heifeng Mountain Village and injured more than a dozen. If it were not for the protection of the county town, Xiang Yang would have no doubt that the bandits would have caught him up the mountain to sacrifice blood.
Now he takes a big risk to go up the mountain, and his identity must be kept confidential. If Zhou Fugui saves his friends and shares the bandits in Heifeng Mountain Village and sells himself to them, he really doesn't know how to die.
Fortunately, Xiang Yang had read the letter, but he looked horizontally and vertically but didn't notice anything wrong. He just went to the literary museum to buy an envelope, disguised it as if it was undisassembled.
Zhou Fugui's family didn't know about this action, otherwise they would have had a cold sweat. They did have this idea, but Xiang Yang is now a constable, and Fu Dachun, the person who is in trouble, knows the inside story and has some concerns in his heart, otherwise they may not be able to really sell Xiang Yang to Heifeng Costume.
After leaving the city, Xiangyang walked straight towards a rugged path, with horses stomping on the ground, dust flying, and the weeds and shrubs on both sides of the road were endless. It looked very desolate, and it was a small county town.
When Xiang Yang rode a horse and saw the faint shadow of Heishan Mountain in the distance, his heart trembled slightly. He took off the water bag hanging on the side of the yellow horse and drooled it, extinguishing the restlessness in his heart. He squeezed his legs and pushed his belly straight towards Heishan.
Heishan is the largest mountain range in Anyuan and several nearby counties. It stretches for hundreds of miles, with ravines and ridges gathering like a gathering. The deeper it goes, the more dangerous it becomes. There are groups of beasts inside, and dozens of unlucky ghosts even become wild beasts every year.
Of course, this huge black mountain is not entirely harmful. The so-called surviving on the mountain and surviving on the sea, such as Liguo Village, organized a hunting team to go up the mountain to hunt and survive along a small mountain system. Some beasts sold at a much higher price than serving crops throughout the year.
In addition to these, the most famous thing in Heishan is the Heifeng Mountain Village, a criminal force that has caused great headaches but is powerless to the government. Apart from Liguo Village, Anyuan has no village that has not been harmed by these bandits.
After entering the mountain road, Xiang Yang found a hidden bush to tie the yellow horse there. He carried the package on his back and held a thick-backed knife in his hand and was always alert to the surrounding environment. Strictly speaking, when he arrived on the mountain, especially in the Black Wind Outside Mountain, he might encounter Black Wind bandits at any time.
The mountain road was rugged, but Xiang Yang himself was full of energy and his teenager practiced Iron Crotch Kung Fu increased his strength and endurance. He didn't feel tired. He quickly climbed two hills and approached the Black Wind Mountain Village.
However, just as Xiang Yang leaned against a tree as thick as a thigh, a whoosh made him subconsciously turn over and roll, his heart pounding, and his back was covered in cold sweat. Fortunately, these bandits' archery skills were not good, and he was sensitive and focused, so he avoided the arrow.
The long sword rubbed out of the sheath and spread across his chest, and his body was in the strongest defensive state. Xiang Yang used a big tree to hide his tracks and listened carefully to the situation in the forest.
"But all the heroes of Heifeng Village? Don't do it. I have something to ask for a meeting when I come to the village. I'll ask a few brothers to take me to see a few of the bosses."
Xiang Yang's voice was full of energy and spread far away. Soon, the sound of Sasha's leaves shaking, and at the same time, several heavy steps were getting closer and closer.
"I want to meet a few people in charge? Who are you? Let's talk first, otherwise don't blame us for being polite."
The sound was a rough man in his thirties and forties. His voice was thick and ferocious, which made Xiang Yang hesitate. The people outside had bows and arrows, and his sword skills were stronger than ordinary people, but he could not resist the continuous sharpness of arrows.
"In Xiayang Township, entrusted by Mr. Zhou Fugui, Zhou, the city of Anyuan County, to come to Guishan Village to meet several leaders and discuss in detail about the redemption of Miss Zhou's family. Please don't do it, I'll come out now."
Xiang Yang hesitated for a while and spoke, as he walked out from behind the big tree, holding the long knife tightly in his right hand. If the person on the other side wanted to take action, he would not be slaughtered.
Fortunately, Xiang Yang's words worked, and four figures walked out more than ten meters away from Xiang Yang and did not take action.
The four of them were wearing coarse linen clothes. They seemed to be very ordinary in life, but they all had big arms, round waists, fierce eyes, and holding a guy in their hands, which seemed to be not easy to mess with.
"Yao, I'm still a boy with no hair. I dare to come to our village alone. I have some courage. Men admire people like you the most. Take your knife back and don't move around."
The bandit led by the leader pulled the bow and arrow and pointed it at Xiang Yang. Seeing that Xiang Yang was very aware of the current situation, he also took back the bow and arrow, nodded, and then gave a wink at the three bandits beside him. The three of them looked around in a clear way, and it took a long time to rush back.
"No one else, he is the only one. It seems that he is not from the government, and this person is too young."
A bandit who seemed a little friendly said to the leader, and there was a hint of greed in Xiang Yang's eyes. In the past, there was a situation where they had come to pay for money to redeem people. Every time they could make a fortune and live a happy life like a god.
The name of the big tea merchant Zhou Fugui is known to those who have been robbing their families for a long time. How much should such a big rich man pay to redeem his daughter?
