There was an old man with an awe-inspiring nickname who spared the dog official's life. It was not because he was kind, but because Wang Shiwei had promised to exchange his life for Senior Shen's life. He was willing to owe Senior Shen his life. When the time came, he could take the official's life away with just a word. Everyone in Beiliang valued their promises. Moreover, Wang Shiwei was a man with a loose tongue but an honest heart. Shen Li, who had seen countless people, believed in his own judgment. In any case, a small county princess would not be able to escape death once she entered the tiger's den of Mount Fu Yao. If he did not kill her personally, he would not be considered breaking his promise. He would still be able to take the life of a simple and unsophisticated man for free. Six people rode toward Mount Fu Yao in the chilly moonlight. The registrar was casually thrown onto the horse's back. Wang Shiwei did not know how to ride a horse, so he sat behind Liu Yu. Shen Li urged the horse to gallop wildly. He did not care about the poor registrar, who was jolted up and down by the horse's back. He rolled off the horse and was covered in dust. Everybody had no choice but to stop and fall back onto the horse's back.
Mount Fu Yao was two hundred li away. This was what Shen Li and the other Jianghu people called it. The woodcutters and hunters of Yanzhi Prefecture were used to calling it Mount Jin Ji. Because there were many red-bellied golden pheasants on the mountain, Beiliang's playboys were addicted to cockfighting and often used this type of pheasant. However, it was rumored that remnants of the Devil Cult had taken over Mount Jin Ji. They were all vicious bandits who killed without blinking an eye. Few people went there. Even the old hunters did not dare to take their lives lightly. Therefore, red-bellied golden pheasants had always been priceless in the vicinity of Yanzhi Prefecture. The peaks of Mount Fu Yao stretched for dozens of li. The mountains were high and the rivers were long. The scenery was elegant. It had a rare green color in Youzhou. It was a heavenly paradise, but because of those bandits, the atmosphere was foul. Looking at the mountain range in broad daylight, it gave people a gloomy and gloomy feeling. It wasn't that Yanzhi County hadn't taken action to suppress the bandits on a large scale before, but ever since eighty strong and powerful people went out and only one madman came back alive, no one was willing to touch this bad luck. For the sake of money, the whole family of a woodcutter who led the way for the officers and soldiers were quickly hanged from high branches. Their mouths were stuffed with large pieces of gold and silver. The mountain path of Mount Fu Yi was narrow and rugged, barely allowing one rider to advance slowly. It was dawn when they entered the mountain. When the first rays of the morning sun gradually deepened and the mountain fog gradually dispersed, there was no more mountain path beneath the feet of the six riders. They could only rely on their experience to climb up the mountain. At noon, their field of vision suddenly opened up. It was actually a large expanse of white walls and black tiles built against the mountain. On the left side of the building, there was a slender waterfall that was not very imposing. It was charming and gentle. It was as if they had walked into a notorious gambling house only to discover that the manager of the house was a petite and exquisite young woman.
Shen Li turned his head and smiled. "Wang Shiwei, this is the real Mount Fu Yi. Don't look at the mountains outside as they have no signs of human habitation. They have hidden beacons and are not much different from an army. There are more than three hundred people on this mountain. Regardless of whether they are young or old, they all have some skills. Not to mention Yanzhi County, even if the Youzhou general wanted to enter the mountain, he wouldn't be able to come here without sacrificing thousands of lives. Moreover, there are mountains beyond mountains. Three li away from Mount Fu Yao, there are more than a hundred real men in the Immortal Coffin Cave. There are as many experts as there are clouds. The Cave Master of the Hidden Sword Cave was already a master long before he entered the mountain. Compared to Mount Fu Yao's second level expert Zhang Juxian, his strength can only be higher. "
Shen Li laughed and retracted his gaze. He looked up the mountain. "Why am I talking to a villager like you about this? Even if you start practicing martial arts today, you won't be able to do anything. You won't be able to become an expert if you only have strength. If you want revenge, then in the future on the mountain, you'll have to tuck your tail between your legs and be a good person. After a few years, bring twenty or thirty brothers down the mountain. A tender Song family disciple will naturally be easy to capture. At that time, you'll be at your mercy. There are many rough men on the mountain who like the style of men with broken sleeves. You don't have to worry about your enemy dying too comfortably. Master Registrar, this Old Man knows that he woke up half an hour ago. Don't pretend to be asleep. These words are meant for you. "
Master Registrar of Bishan county slid down from his horse and rubbed his stomach. His internal organs were probably all messed up from the jolt. His face was dispirited. Wang Shiwei also jumped down from his horse. After walking closer, he said apologetically, "Master Registrar, I'm sorry. Sinner Wang Shiwei …"
Without waiting for the man to finish, Master Registrar made a move to hit him. However, he quickly retracted his hand and sighed heavily. He looked at the mountain that he didn't know why it was called a talisman. He was lost in thought. Liu Yu pushed his shoulder. Master Registrar followed Wang Shiwei up the steps. The bluestone path was hidden in the shade of the trees on both sides. Even though it was noon, the summer heat wasn't heavy. As they climbed up the steps, they didn't see many whistles in the open. Shen Li escaped from prison and revisited the old place. He seemed to have some sentiments. Liu Yu followed beside the old senior and whispered to each other. When they reached a pavilion halfway up the mountain, two white-clothed children holding books appeared from the side of the path. Their lips were red and their teeth were white. Behind them was a white-haired old man in white riding a yellow ox. He looked even more like an immortal. He sang loudly, "Riding on the back of a yellow ox, hands down facing the spring breeze." This made Wang Shiwei mistakenly think that he was an immortal who lived in seclusion in the mountains.
Shen Li stood at the top of the steps and exposed the old immortal master. He laughed, "Mountain Lord Wei, what's the use of pretending to be a ghost on the mountain? With this outfit, you can only deceive people outside the mountain. However, among the Ten Bandits of Youzhou, you, Old Man Wei, are ranked higher than me. Once you show yourself, you'll be chased down by hundreds of cavalrymen."
The old Mountain Lord of Mount Fu Yao sneered, "Heart-Rending King of Hell Shen Li, how could This Old Man dare to be ranked with you as one of the Ten Bandits of Youzhou? You're even called King of Hell. You're even scarier than a butcher. If it weren't for the fact that Brother Giant Immortal is an old acquaintance of yours and owes you, This Old Man wouldn't have let his disciple get involved in this muddy water in Bishan County."
Shen Li twisted his right wrist with two fingers on his left hand and laughed softly, "Wei Jin, you and I aren't any good people. We're about the same. Back then, the master of the Profound Sword Cave didn't use his sword to tear your mouth apart. Why don't you know how to cherish it? "
The old man, perhaps one of the leaders of Mount Fu Yao, glanced at Registrar Xu and the farmer Wang Shiwei in puzzlement. His disciple Liu Yu walked to Yellow Ox's side and roughly explained the situation. The old man nodded and then shook his head. He took the lead and rode up the mountain. The two white-clothed children walked with light and agile steps. It was obvious that they were also skilled in Lightness Skill. Being able to become the disciple of Mount Fu Yao's top three expert, Mountain Lord Wei, their foundation and luck were certainly not bad. Hsu Fengnian's face was bruised and swollen. He had deliberately restrained his Qi so that his body was no different from an ordinary person's. Even his breathing was no exception. After all, Wei Jin was not a real immortal. Naturally, he couldn't tell what realm this young official was in. Xu Fengnian and Wang Shiwei were settled in a remote courtyard. There were even two middle-aged and delicate servant girls serving them. Looking at how happy they were, they should be girls who had been abducted to the mountain when they were young. It was hard to say whether they were pitiful or fortunate. After all, they could live a life of luxury on the mountain, but at the very least, they did not have to worry about food and clothing. Wang Shiwei waited for the servant girls, whose eyes were full of curiosity, to serve tea and food. He closed the door and left. This middle-aged man, who used to be one of the top bailiffs in Qingshan County, carefully walked to the window and put his ear to the window paper. When he didn't hear the slightest sound, he sat back down at the table and looked at the county magistrate who was wolfing down the food. He was about to speak when Hsu Fengnian grabbed a greasy chicken leg and threw it at Wang Shiwei, stopping him from speaking. He glared at him and said in exasperation, "F * cking Wang Shiwei! You caused me, a dignified county magistrate, to become a prisoner! If I can return to Bishan County, I'll skin you alive and pull out your tendons! "
Wang Shiwei caught the chicken leg and smiled bitterly, "I hope the magistrate can leave the mountain safely."
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, the magistrate picked up a bamboo stick and leisurely picked his teeth. He leaned against the back of the chair and put his feet on the table. Then, he and the chair fell to the floor. Wang Shiwei suddenly turned and looked up. He saw a beautiful woman sitting on the beam with a knife on her knees. She grinned, revealing a pair of canine teeth. Wang Shiwei was shocked. Just now, he did not notice anything strange. If he revealed everything to Registrar Xu, then he would really kill this young official who was not bad at all. The woman looked to be in her early twenties. A short knife wrapped in a sheath of gold was placed on her knees. She floated down from the beam and circled around Hsu Fengnian. She looked at him from head to toe several times. On Fu Fu Mountain, she had seen all kinds of outlaws since she was young. However, it was the first time she saw a pitiful official wearing the official's skin! She reached out and pinched Hsu Fengnian's embroidered bird official's patch. She smiled and asked, "How high are you? What's this thing embroidered on it? "
Hsu Fengnian 'pretended to be calm' and said, "In reply to Miss, I am a sixth-rank official. I am the magistrate of Bishan County. I am a secondary sixth-rank civil official. The embroidered on it is a heron. "
The woman tugged at the official's patch and withdrew her hand. She was still reluctant to part with it. She said, "Snowsuit has snow-white hair and a jade-like mouth. She often raises her feet to look at the ship's window. She is a white heron. This Miss knows. Why don't you give me this official's robe? This Miss will guarantee your safety on Fu Fu Mountain. How about it? "
Ignoring Wang Shiwei's signal, Hsu Fengnian's righteousness was inappropriate. He said in a low voice, "A scholar prefers death to humiliation."
Wang Shiwei sighed. The young woman slapped the sesame official's patch and rolled her eyes. "Scholar your head. Humiliation you bastard. You are as sarcastic as Grandpa Wei. However, do you have Grandpa Wei's skills? You, just wait for the punishment of being cut by fish scales. You know fish scales, right? Slice by slice, you will be scraped into a carp with fish scales lifted off! Humph, Senior Brother Monkey's knife skills are only slightly inferior to my father's. "
As she spoke, the woman raised her arm and made a hand chop. She then smiled and asked, "I will give you one more chance. Are you going to take it off or not?"
This woman was an impatient person. Seeing that the fellow didn't move, she shouted for this Miss to do it herself. Very quickly, she took off the official's robe, threw it over her shoulder, and happily skipped out of the room.
Hsu Fengnian sat back in his chair and filled Wang Shiwei's cup with wine. He muttered, "She really is a female bandit."
Wang Shiwei said with regret, "Magistrate Xu, you should have agreed to this woman's request."
