Chapter 52 The 52nd Circuit Turns to the Peak and Returns to Meet the Chivalrous Girl Lin Shen Road Secret Surprise Soldiers

The mountains around Xiaojinchuan overlap, and the defense line of the Qing army stretches for more than a hundred miles. Although there is a post at five steps and a sentry at ten steps, there are still gaps to exploit.Yu Wenxiong and Jiang Xiaofu relied on their superb lightness skills to travel day and night. In the first two days, they went very smoothly. They smuggled through the three lines of defense of the Qing army. No one found them and went deep into the mountains.By the third night, they had climbed over the southern peak of Yupan Mountain, and the northern foot of the mountain was the last line of defense for the Qing army to block Xiaojinchuan.

Walking halfway up the mountain, the camp of the Qing army below is already faintly visible.Yu Wenxiong stared at it for a while, and couldn't help calling out "Bitter".This night was a dark and windy night, but the lights below were as dense as the stars in the sky.It turned out that the Qing army actually formed a battalion and formed a long snake formation, which really sealed off Xiaojinchuan. Although the first two lines of defense are full of sentries, there are still gaps to drill; this line of defense is impenetrable, but it is difficult to fly! Jiang Xiaofu said: "What should I do? I have no choice but to force my way in!" Yu Wenxiong said: "I can't do it by force. Although your sword is sharp, how can you kill the densely packed Qing army?" Jiang Xiaofu said: "Could it be? Can we stop here? Maybe the thief Ye Lingfeng has already entered Xiaojinchuan, should we just watch the Leng family uncle and nephew repeat the same mistakes as Brother Zhong and fall for his tricks?" Yu Wenxiong said: "It is precisely because of our heavy responsibility , so let’s not be foolish. Think about it, it doesn’t matter if we risk our lives. But we can’t reach Xiaojinchuan, who will report to the Leng family’s uncle and nephew?”

Jiang Xiaofu said: "I know the truth. But if you can't get through this line of defense, how can you get to Xiao Jinchuan? I really can't think of any way, think about it." Yu Wenxiong was more anxious than Jiang Xiaofu , but he really couldn't think of a way.Suddenly, at the foot of the mountain, torches meandered, climbing up from the bottom like a long snake. It turned out that there was a group of Qing troops patrolling up the mountain. Yu Wenxiong said: "Killing a few people won't help, quickly hide. We will fight him unless they find out." Jiang Xiaofu endured her sulking, followed Yu Wenxiong to hide in the thorn bushes, and the thorns pierced her The clothes are like needle pricks, although it is not very painful, it is enough to bear.

The Qing army was getting closer and closer, and Jiang Xiaofu vaguely heard some of them saying: "A woman, no matter how good her martial arts is, I don't believe she is so bold, daring to sneak past our defense line." Another person said: "How do you know that she has no one with her?" The man said, "If there were many people coming, we would have discovered it long ago. If there were three or two people, it would not help." The Qing army raised their torches and shone around, Jiang Xiaofu held on to the hilt of his sword tightly, ready to kill them as soon as they found out.Fortunately, the Qing army did not take pictures of where they were hiding, presumably because the mountain road was rugged, and it became more and more difficult to walk up. The Qing army only patrolled halfway up the mountain and then retreated.

Jiang Xiaofu breathed a sigh of relief and walked out from the bushes.Yu Wenxiong said: "Junior Sister, why don't you apply some gold-chuang medicine?" Jiang Xiaofu said: "It's nothing to be stabbed by thorns? Second Senior Brother, did you hear what they said?" Yu Wenxiong nodded and said: " I heard it. Strange, could it be that our whereabouts have been noticed by the Qing army?" Jiang Xiaofu said with a smile: "If we sneak into their defense area, we will probably find some clues for them. However, they may not know you yet, I It must be known to them." Jiang Xiaofu only thought that the "bold woman" that the sentry said must be referring to her.

The patrol had gone too far.The weather was not good that night, the sky was covered with thick black clouds, and they had been worried that it would rain.At this moment, the sky turned suddenly, the clouds parted and the moon appeared, Jiang Xiaofu looked up and saw the moon was shining, it should be the third watch.Under the moonlight, the peaks and mountains seem to be covered with a layer of mist and veil, with jagged rocks and mountain grasses like swords.The thatch is dotted with countless wild flowers, and small flowers of various colors sway in the wind in a piece of green thatch, just like the waves splashing in the ocean, but the waves are not so colorful.

The moonlit night, the barren mountains, the wind in the pines, and the waves of flowers constitute a wonderful picture.And at the foot of the mountain is a thousand horses and thousands of troops. The campfires are as dense as stars. The scenery on the mountain and the mountain is extremely disharmonious. Against the background, the scenery on the mountain looks even more beautiful. But Jiang Xiaofu was in no mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery.She looked at the moon and sighed, "The enemy has discovered our whereabouts. If we can't sneak through this line of defense tonight, they will definitely search the mountains tomorrow. We have gone through many hardships, but we were blocked here! Brother Xiong, it's still the same." Take the risk to break into it!"

Yu Wenxiong suddenly said: "Listen, there seems to be a voice on the other side?" The two looked up and listened intently.Under the faint moonlight, on the obliquely opposite hillside, behind a pile of rocks, a thatched hut was faintly exposed in the woods.The sound came from this hut.The two walked a few steps closer and heard it more clearly. It was a woman's voice, but what she was speaking was the local dialect of this mountain area, and they couldn't understand a word of what she said. Yu Wenxiong said: "It must be the woman of Orion's family, let's go find the news." Jiang Xiaofu said: "This family is very bold, even the women did not escape." You must know that the Qing army is in this mountain and outside the mountain. , A triple line of defense was set up to block Xiaojinchuan, and the hunters in the mountains had already escaped.In the past two days, they had never encountered a native on the mountain, so they were a little surprised to find a hunter's house with people.

Jiang Xiaofu said: "You are a man. If you go to knock on the door in the middle of the night, even though they are bold, they will scare you. Why don't you let me talk to them first." Yu Wenxiong smiled and said: "You are very thoughtful. The military career in the past few months has really honed you into an adult. Okay, I will wait for you here." Jiang Xiaofu walked to the front of the thatched hut, and was about to call the door, when suddenly a dart shot out from the hut, Jiang Xiaofu was taken aback, and quickly dodged, the dart almost brushed her temple. Pass.It was too late, but soon, a girl rushed out of the hut.

The girl's movement was extremely fast, she rushed out, without saying a word, she slashed at Jiang Xiaofu with a single blow.Jiang Xiaofu used the "Wind Blowing Flowers" move, flashed three swords, and quickly shouted: "I, I'm not a bad person!" The girl saw clearly that Jiang Xiaofu was a woman, and was startled for a moment, but Still making moves and continuing to attack, he shouted: "You are not a bad person, what are you doing hiding here in the middle of the night? Who cares who you are, we will talk after you are caught!" With a quick move, the knife caught the palm, the knife split the face door, and the left palm fell from the knife Wear it out and twist Jiang Xiaofu's wrist.Jiang Xiaofu has been nurtured by her parents since she was a child. Of course her skills are not top-notch due to her age, but her knowledge in martial arts is better than the top-notch masters in the martial arts world.

The young girl attacked her with a palm-in-a-knife attack, and she knew at a glance that the knife in front of her was a "false style", the intention was just to divert her gaze, so that she could be captured by the grasping method, palm The formula is the "real formula".It seemed that the girl really didn't want to hurt her life. Although Jiang Xiaofu knew that this woman was not trying to hurt her life, she was unwilling to be captured by her.Moreover, she still doesn't know the origin of this girl, and she has to be wary that the other party is an enemy.At that moment, Huo made a "phoenix nod" to avoid the blade, and immediately returned a move of "antelope hanging horn". The girl's face.The girl's knife just now was a "false style", but Jiang Xiaofu's punch was false and real, which made the girl unpredictable. Seeing her high martial arts skills, the girl became more suspicious, and said angrily: "What a cruel girl, I want you to know how powerful I am!" She took a step sideways, and with a "drawing and withdrawing chain", she launched a quick knife technique, and slashed repeatedly in one breath. Twelve knives.Jiang Xiaofu used the most ingenious "Tianluo footwork", managed to avoid the opponent's series of sharp knives, and was almost cut by the opponent. Jiang Xiaofu knew that she couldn't deal with the girl's sharp knife with bare hands, so she pulled out the Caiyun sword and shouted: "Okay, I will let you know how powerful I am!" It was extremely sharp, sparks flew, and the girl's Burmese knife lost a gap. This girl was very lucky, once she suffered a loss in weapons, the next round of sharp swords avoided Jiang Xiaofu's sword.In terms of martial arts, Jiang Xiaofu is not inferior to this woman, but her experience is not as good as hers, giving her a fast attack, I feel a little flustered. Yu Wenxiong rushed over and shouted suddenly: "Aren't you Miss Geng? Stop! Stop! We are all friends." The girl let out a "huh", put away the Burmese knife, and said, "Aren't you the young man who was with Ye Muhua?" Yu Wenxiong said: "That's right. My name is Yu Wenxiong, and she is my junior sister Jiang Xiaofu. Ye Muhua is her cousin." It turned out that this girl was none other than the Geng Xiufeng who had recently turned an enemy into a friend with Ye Muhua. Geng Xiufeng smiled slightly, held hands with Jiang Xiaofu, and said, "Miss Jiang is very good at martial arts. Is Miss Jiang here to find her cousin?" She tried her best to show affection to Jiang Xiaofu, but the smile on her face was a little unnatural . Jiang Xiaofu had already known something about the relationship between Ye and Geng from Yu Wenxiong. Jiang Xiaofu was a woman with exquisite senses, and she secretly laughed in her heart: "I dare say that Miss Geng is jealous for no reason." Said: "Although Ye Muhua is my cousin, I know him far behind Sister Geng. I only met him for the first time a few days ago." He said with his hands: "It was my senior brother and cousin Ye who came to look for me, not me looking for him." Jiang Xiaofu answered very cleverly, and with such an affectionate attitude between her and Yu Wenxiong, she immediately untied the knot in Geng Xiufeng's heart without a trace.But Jiang Xiaofu still didn't understand why Geng Xiufeng thought she was going to Xiaojinchuan to find Ye Muhua. Geng Xiufeng was taken aback for a moment, and said: "Oh, you just saw your cousin Ye a few days ago, didn't you go to Xiaojinchuan to look for him? Well, this is strange." Jiang Xiaofu was also surprised, "What's so strange?" Geng Xiufeng smiled and said, "Let's go inside and talk." He and Jiang Xiaofu walked into the thatched hut hand in hand, this time they smiled very naturally, and their attitude was really affectionate . In the hut was a young woman with two bare feet, three copper rings around her ankles, and a hunting fork in her hand. Beside her was a sleeping child about six or seven years old.Judging by her attire, she is a woman of the Luoluo ethnic group.Probably because she didn't know whether it was a friend or an enemy who came just now, so she picked up the hunting fork to protect her child.In case Geng Xiufeng loses and Jiang Xiaofu enters the hut, she will fight Jiang Xiaofu desperately.Now she saw Geng Xiufeng and Jiang Xiaofu coming in holding hands, of course she was very surprised. Geng Xiufeng mumbled a few words to her in the local dialect of the Lolu tribe, pointed to Jiang Xiaofu, and patted her heart.Although Jiang Xiaofu did not understand the language of the Luoluo tribe, she also understood what Geng Xiufeng said. She must have shown the young woman that she and Jiang Xiaofu were bosom friends. The young woman patted the thatched mat, motioned for Jiang Xiaofu to sit down, then pointed to Yu Wenxiong and said, "He, he is also a friend?" It turns out that this lousy young woman can speak a few words of Chinese, but she can speak it well. Just blunt.Geng Xiufeng nodded and said, "That's right." So the young woman also asked Yu Wenxiong to sit down. Geng Xiufeng said: "This Sister Mahua is my girlfriend. Three years ago, I took my father's old army to rebel against the imperial court. When I returned from Xinjiang, I passed by here and got acquainted with Sister Mahua. Later, I also stayed at her home Several times. Sister Mahua is really good at it. With a hunting fork, she has supported her children. With a hunting fork in hand, even a tiger can’t beat her.” Mahua doesn’t speak Chinese well, but listens to Know 70% to 80% of Chinese.With a shy smile, he said, "How can you compare to your Miss Geng?" After Geng Xiufeng introduced Ma Hua, a young woman from the Lolu tribe, Ma Hua asked them to sit down.Yu Wenxiong and Jiang Xiaofu couldn't wait to ask: "Miss Geng, how did you come here?" "Miss Geng, why do you think I'm going to Xiaojinchuan to find Ye Muhua?" Geng Xiufeng said: "Young Hero Yuwen, you were also present at Huashan that day, so you know about it. I got brothers from the Zhu family and Ye Muhua to explain the truth to me, and I just woke up like a dream, knowing who my big enemy is. Butcher Ye, in the past I blamed Ye Muhua wrongly. I, I am so ashamed!" Yu Wenxiong said: "Although Miss Geng knew about it a bit late, it's better than not knowing." Geng Xiufeng sighed, and said: "But I never imagined that my master's family was a martial scum who secretly served the Qing court, and he was the same as Ye Tuhu. I rebelled against my teacher that day and wanted to go back to Feifeng Mountain to regroup. On the way We were attacked again by Guidebao and the official army, and the Dazhai in Feifeng Mountain was also picked by the official army. However, our loss is not light, and the loss of the official army is even heavier." Geng Xiufeng took a sip of bitter tea, and then said: "After this battle, I understand a truth, Ye Tuhu, why does the old thief dare to be so tyrannical? It's all because of the 'imperial court' to support them. Ye Tuhu has done a good job. The bigger the crime, the bigger the crime. He wants to kill all the heroes and righteous men in the world, and protect the country of the Tartars. The old thief is just a local tyrant. He does not have such great power. 'The throne. "But no matter how big or small their crimes are, in short, corrupt officials, bullies, and the court are all things that harm the people. The court is the root of the tree, and people like Ye Tuhu and Gui Lao are the trunk and branches. In the past, I just wanted to repay My revenge for killing my father, even after I know that Ye Tuhu is my enemy, I just want to kill him. I will take revenge on whoever bullied me. If the old thief and his son bully me, I will kill their father and son Now, I know that these people are not the only enemies I have. If I want to take revenge, I must fight against the Qing court. This is a truth that I gradually understand!" Yu Wenxiong said: "Yes, Miss Geng, you understand this truth very well, and you also explain this truth very thoroughly." Geng Xiufeng said: "I lost Dazhai in Feifeng Mountain, and I knew that I could not take revenge with my own strength. So I brought my subordinates here to join the rebel army. Yetuhu is my big enemy, and also The enemy of the rebel army. I join the rebel army, and I can avenge my family and the country. But I have no acquaintances in the rebel army, and there is only one Ye Muhua who I have known before. When I get here, I have to find him." At this point, There was a slight blush on his face. Jiang Xiaofu secretly laughed, thinking: "You and my cousin Ye, did you just know each other once?" Asked: "But why did you think of going to Xiaojinchuan to find my cousin Ye?" Geng Xiufeng said: "When we arrived at Heigouling, we didn't know that there had been a great battle there just ten days ago. There were ten rooms and nine empty houses nearby, and those who could walk had already escaped the disaster. We found a guard with great difficulty. The old woman at home asked her for news. The old woman said that after the war, the rebel army had already withdrawn, and she didn't know where the rebel army was hiding. But when I mentioned Ye Muhua's name, she knew it was the leader of the rebel army. This news came as a surprise to me, Ye Muhua only came ten and a half months earlier than me, did the rebel army not have a leader, why did he become the leader?" Jiang Xiaofu said: "It's a long story, but didn't the old woman tell you?" Geng Xiufeng said: "The old woman was indifferent to us, but after hearing me say Ye Muhua's name, she became intimate with me. I was about to ask her for more information, but unexpectedly, a group of Qing troops had already discovered us traces, searched there." Geng Xiufeng took a sip of bitter tea and continued: "After a small battle, we repelled the Qing army, but unfortunately the old woman was shot by a arrow and lost her life. We captured a Qing army, and I tortured him He confessed that the leader of the rebel army had fled to Xiaojinchuan, and that rebel army had already been wiped out. He testified under severe torture, which seems to be true." Jiang Xiaofu said with a smile: "These two news are both false. Yes, the leader of the rebel army is also named Ye, but this leaf is different from the other leaf. The one who fled to Xiaojinchuan was the one who infiltrated the rebel army and usurped the high position of the commander. In fact, it is Ye Lingfeng, a spy of the Qing army. Not Ye Muhua. If the Qing army who forced you to confess did not intend to lie to you, he would have been Zhang Guan Lidai." Jiang Xiaofu thought to herself: "This Sister Geng's method of dealing with captives is quite different from that of Cousin Ye. Cousin Ye treats the captive preferentially, and the captive is willing to tell the truth to him. Sister Geng tortured and forced a confession, so it's no wonder that the prisoner wanted to lie. lied to her." In fact, Jiang Xiaofu was only half right.It turned out that the prisoner was just an ordinary soldier, and he didn't even know the father-son relationship between Ye Lingfeng and Ye Tuhu.On that day, Ye Lingfeng pretended to be pursued by the Qing army and fled to Xiaojinchuan. Ye Tuhu sent a team of "chasing soldiers", and this prisoner was also one of the "chasing soldiers" at that time.The only one who knew the secret was the officer leading the team.Therefore, when Geng Xiufeng questioned the prisoner about the whereabouts of the "Commander of the Rebel Army", the prisoner confessed based on what he knew, and he was not willing to deceive Geng Xiufeng.However, the nonsense he confessed that the entire rebel army was wiped out was intentionally intimidating. Geng Xiufeng was startled and confused, and said, "Ye Lingfeng? This seems to be Ye Muhua's other name?" It turned out that Geng Xiufeng had already found out the details of Ye Muhua, and knew that he had another name called Ye Lingfeng.But I don't know the twists and turns of the name change. So Jiang Xiaofu told Geng Xiufeng all the twists and turns, and Geng Xiufeng was horrified. After Geng Xiufeng understood the truth of the matter, she was startled and angry, her brows were raised upright, and she said: "It turns out that the traitor Ye Lingfeng is the son of Butcher Ye, and he got involved in Xiaojinchuan. People, but there are mistakes. In order to eliminate this scourge, we must go to Xiaojinchuan." Jiang Xiaofu frowned and said, "The Qing army formed a camp at the foot of the mountain, and the blockade was impenetrable, but how could we reach Xiaojinchuan?" Geng Xiufeng smiled and said: "I have a way to get to Xiaojinchuan." Yu Wenxiong and Jiang Xiaofu were overjoyed, and hurriedly asked: "What way?" Geng Xiufeng said: "The solution lies in this Sister Mahua, she can take us there." Geng Xiufeng talked with Ma Hua in local dialect for a while, and then said: "After we were attacked by the Qing army that day, I knew that our small team would never pass through the defense line of the Qing army, so I handed over my subordinates to the Zhu family brothers to lead I asked them to split up to find the rebels. Because I believed the confession of the prisoner, I went to Xiaojinchuan alone. I have walked through this area several times, and the terrain is very familiar. I stole the two lines of defense of the Qing army. , I finally found Sister Mahua. When you came, I was asking Sister Mahua for advice on how to pass the last line of defense of the Qing army. Sister Mahua promised to take me there. When you came, I interrupted the conversation , Now Sister Ma Hua explained it clearly to me. Speaking of it, this is really a wonderful way, through the defense line of the Qing army, you can pass through the defense line of the Qing army without any effort." Geng Xiufeng deliberately "sold dumb medicine in the stuffy gourd" and did not reveal the answer. Make them anxious. Jiang Xiaofu said: "Since Sister Mahua can take us there, let's go without delay!" Both she and Yu Wenxiong were dubious, thinking: "How could it be possible to get through the defense line of the Qing army without any effort?" ?" But I also expected that Geng Xiufeng would not lie to her, since Geng Xiufeng refused to speak first, they were eager to get to Xiaojinchuan, so there was no need to ask more questions.Anyway, this "riddle" is always to be solved. Ma Hua picked up the sleeping child on her back, picked up a hunting fork in one hand, and sang a hypnotic song along the way, leading the way nonchalantly. Fell asleep. When Ma Hua reached a mountain depression, she saw that she pushed the hunting fork through the thorns, revealing a hole. Geng Xiufeng smiled and said: "The other exit of this hole is Xiaojinchuan, and we have just passed the defense line of the Qing army. We are here Walking through their defense line in the cave, the Qing army could not have dreamed of it. Isn't this effortless?" It turned out that this cave was used by the local natives as a refuge. Their ancestors discovered the cave. In order to keep a secret, they deliberately planted thorns at the entrance of the cave. Ma Hua rubbed the flint, lit a torch from the broken thorns, and led them into this wonderful cave.The scenery in the cave was suddenly revealed under the firelight. At this moment, everyone couldn't help but let out a sound of joy and admiration.exactly: If you want to know what happened next, please listen to the next chapter.
