Chapter 134 Crisis

The night was boundless, with a crescent moon hanging in the sky, but the white snow field reflected a faint white light. In the silent field, suddenly there were projectile-like black spots appearing from a distance, shooting towards the snow-covered mountains.

From time to time, the black dots passed over the branches of the trees stretching towards the night sky, and they stepped through the thick snow without touching the ground. , obviously, this is an extremely brilliant light work.

It turned out that this was a night walker in black.

The speed of the man in black was extremely fast. Not long after, he had already reached the bottom of the mountain range. The man in black stopped at the bottom of the mountain range for a while, then caught it and ejected it up the mountain. The speed was actually no slower than that on the plain.

Not long after, I came to a gentle place, looked around for a while, and ran towards a dark place in the shade. When I got close, the dark thing showed its outline, it was Zhang Xiaohua's night stay Mountain temple? !

At this time, the man in black stopped suddenly, and with a sound of "Hey", he took out something from his arms, then walked slowly to the door, poked his head, and stared at Zhang Xiaohua who was sleeping next to a campfire that was about to be extinguished. After listening for a while, he walked in with heavy steps and entered the temple gate. With the faint light of the fire, the dark dagger in the man's hand gave off a cold breath.

Seeing the half-grown boy lying beside the bonfire, the man in black breathed a sigh of relief, but he still held the dagger tightly in his hand. He walked into the temple a few steps, picked up a small stone from the ground, and threw it at Zhang Xiaohua. With a bang, it was hitting Zhang Xiaohua's hand lightly, Zhang Xiaohua was sleeping vigorously at this time, how could he feel it?

However, it was his lack of feeling and reaction that surprised the man in black. He stepped forward cautiously and kicked Zhang Xiaohua tentatively, but he remained silent like a dead pig. Tone, it turns out that this person is dead. The man in black tentatively placed his finger near Zhang Xiaohua's nose, "Huh", why is he still breathing? The man in black was a little puzzled, and then pushed Zhang Xiaohua vigorously, but Zhang Xiaohua didn't seem to feel it at all, turned over, and went to sleep.

Seeing this, the man stopped talking to Zhang Xiaohua, picked up a few dry branches from the side, and added them to the bonfire that was about to go out. The flames immediately surrounded the branches and burned rapidly, and the whole temple was immediately brightened and warmed up. .

After a while, the man in black looked at the flames and suddenly glanced upwards, as if he had sensed something, and then stared outside the temple gate.

Sure enough, a black shadow came in from the outside, bringing in a gust of cold wind, which made the bonfire sway left and right. When the man stood still, he turned out to be a short, thin night traveler with the same black cloth headband, It made people unable to see the face clearly, and the people who came later looked around the temple, saw Zhang Xiaohua by the campfire, frowned, and said, "Mrs. Mei, who is this young man?"

The man in black who was called Mei Laoxiao said with a smile: "I don't know, when I got here, this boy was already sleeping here."

Then the man in black went on to say, "Then why don't you change places?"

The youngest Mei said angrily: "You think it's easy to find a hidden place. I tried it just now. This kid fell asleep. No matter what you do, he doesn't work. He has no internal energy. He must be a lost country boy. Liu Shopkeeper, you are too careful."

After listening to Shopkeeper Liu, he stepped forward and said, "Be careful sailing for ten thousand years. If I'm not careful, can I live till now?"

Shopkeeper Liu walked up to Zhang Xiaohua, looked at it, and kicked it twice. Sure enough, there was no response as Mei Laoyao said. However, he was still worried. After clicking a few times, he said: "Let him sleep well, I don't touch his sleeping point, I always feel uneasy."

The youngest Mei was still on the fire, and said: "Okay, I finally feel relieved this time, come here and warm up."

Shopkeeper Liu sat down beside the bonfire as he said, and asked while warming up, "Mrs. Mei,

How did you find this place? I have been in Misty Rain Town for so long, why have I never heard of a mountain temple here? "

The youngest Mei said angrily: "If you haven't heard of it, it doesn't mean you don't have it. This place was found by the enemy when I came to Yanyu Town on a mission the year before last. When I chased it all the way, I found it from the mountain. I'm looking for you this time. It suddenly occurred to me that it would be perfect to meet you in such a hidden place."

Shopkeeper Liu said with a smile: "That's something I don't even know about. Naturally, it's very appropriate. However, on such a snowy night, only your good qinggong will not leave too many traces on the snow. I can't do it." Yes, there is no guarantee that no one will see it."

The youngest Mei sneered and said, "What if someone sees it tomorrow? Could he know what you and I said tonight? Could he find your shop?"

Shopkeeper Liu said with a smile: "My brother is right, I was too careful."

The youngest Mei said: "There is nothing right or wrong. Once you enter the rivers and lakes, you can't help yourself, and there will be bloody disasters at any time. It's normal to be careful. Oh, well, let's stop gossip. What's wrong with the Tan family?"

Shopkeeper Liu immediately withdrew his smile and said: "The Tan family is a family-style management. I sent people to sneak undercover several times, but they all failed. In order not to startle the snake, I didn't dare to try again. Now I am the shopkeeper of Yushi. , but has some contacts with their third young master."

The youngest Mei kept his expression on his face. Seeing this, shopkeeper Liu didn't know the other party's emotions, so he laughed and said: "I know this is far from the organization's requirements, but I do have some difficulties. You see, Make some low-level disciples, they can't get close to the core of the Tan family, and they can't find anything useful, and the core disciples, not to mention their eldest and second young masters, are all momentary heroes, astute as hell, even if they are Disciples of slightly side branches like Tan Wen and Tan Wu have also received strict training since they were young, and they are strict with themselves in all aspects, so it is really difficult to match what they like."

The youngest Mei frowned and said: "These are the facts, and it's not that the organization doesn't know it. The reason why you came here is because you like your strengths? Did you entrust this tough bone to you? You have to play your best and not be afraid of suffering and not afraid of hardships." With a tired spirit, show the strength you used to be good at fighting tough battles, and strive to put a 'Kongming Lantern' in this difficult place!"

Shopkeeper Liu said in a daze, "Well, Brother Mei, what is the 'Kung Ming Lantern'?"

The youngest Mei smiled and said, "Brother Liu, this is your idiot hat. The 'Kongming Lantern' is a lantern that can be placed in the sky. It seems that you have made achievements that people look up to."

Shopkeeper Liu cupped his hands and said, "Admiration, admiration, brother Mei, the ancients said, 'Scholars should treat each other with admiration for three days'. After you have been trained at the headquarters, your level has greatly improved."

The youngest Mei was also happy, and she bowed her hands in a certain direction, saying: "This is a gift from the Lord, you and I should be grateful, if you do well this time, you may also be appreciated by the Lord. "

Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Liu hurried forward, took out an item from his arms with shaking hands, and carefully brought it to Old Mei Mei, and said with a smile, "Brother Mei, this is an item I received last time in the countryside. Ancient jade, warm in winter and cool in summer is very strange, please accept it, and appreciate it in your spare time."

The youngest Mei looked at the things shopkeeper Liu handed over, and then continued without paying attention, and said with a smile: "Brother Liu is really kind, my little brother has such a little hobby, and I was taken in by my brother, just for you, I want to There is no progress without progress.”

Shopkeeper Liu said humbly: "What do I mean by my humble deeds? Compared with brother Mei, Yingguang is better than Haoyue. I hope my brother will speak more kindly in the future."

Old Mei Mei stroked the things in his hands, and said with a smile: "The master is the one who can't rub his eyes with sand. Naturally, he will be rewarded for his merits and punished for his deeds. If Brother Liu can make some achievements, so can I." Dip light."

Shopkeeper Liu said: "Doesn't that depend on the guidance of the Lord and the support of my younger brother?"

Mei Laoxiao smiled and stopped talking, just admiring the ancient jade in his hand.

Shopkeeper Liu saw that his goal had been achieved, and said, "However, in the past few days, I have heard some things from Master Tan San, and there are some clues."

The youngest Mei let out a "huh" and said, "Tell me, maybe there are some new discoveries."

Shopkeeper Liu said: "According to what Master Tan San said, before and after this year, the Tan family sent many disciples out. It seems that there are many tasks. Master Tan San is a little strange. They all go out at various times, and he has never seen any disciples go out at the end of the year, so he is very puzzled."

The youngest Mei said: "Then you didn't ask him what the mission was?"

Shopkeeper Liu said with a smile: "How dare I ask such a sensitive question? However, he didn't know what he meant vaguely, and when he asked the Patriarch, he was scolded, hehe, if there was no such scolding , He is dissatisfied in his heart, and he may not tell me."

The youngest Mei asked again: "Third Young Master Tan doesn't know, what about First Young Master Tan and Second Young Master Tan? What's going on with them? They're also on a mission?"

Shopkeeper Liu shook his head and said, "That's not true, they're all staying in the Tan family's old house."

The youngest Mei frowned, and said: "This is a bit strange. If something really happened, the eldest and second child of this family must go out to take charge of the overall situation. They all stayed at home. It must be that the Tan family suddenly encountered some trivial matter. Well, you can search carefully and see if you can find anything."

Shopkeeper Liu laughed and said, "Brother Mei is wise."

Mei Laoxiao said with a smile: "Brother Liu, there is no need to be like this. I think we were all brothers sleeping on the kang at the beginning. Now although we have different positions and division of labor, this is the need of work after all. You and I are both in the organization. If you need to move the stones, you don’t have to be so polite in private.”

Shopkeeper Liu said with a smile: "Don't dare, dare not, my brother can't run as fast as your brother, so I'd better listen to you honestly."

The youngest Mei smiled and didn't force her.

After a while, Shopkeeper Liu seemed to think of something, and said, "By the way, Brother Mei, there seems to be one more thing, and I don't know if it will be useful."

The youngest Mei smiled and said, "But it's okay, I'll give you a reference."

Shopkeeper Liu said: "Some time ago, Third Young Master Tan vaguely said that his two older brothers used to practice martial arts with him. In the past year, the two of them have not practiced martial arts with the third brother, and they have never been together. He fought with the third brother, and sometimes he had itchy hands to try with his two older brothers, but they used various excuses to shirk him. He was very puzzled. Later, he overheard a disciple from the side door seeming to say that his two older brothers had made great progress in martial arts. He is already one of the best figures in the younger generation of the Tan family."

Speaking of this, Shopkeeper Liu took a peek at Old Mei Mei and said, "However, Third Young Master Tan scoffs at this statement, the three of them are the direct descendants of the Tan family, and martial arts have been passed down in their families since childhood, so it's normal to be among the best. Brother Mei, do you think this news is useful?"

The youngest Mei said: "Brother Liu, this news is very important, I will definitely tell the Lord the news myself, and I should give you a good credit."

Shopkeeper Liu said happily, "Thank you, Brother Mei."

However, he was a little puzzled immediately, and asked, "Brother Mei, please let me know about the maze. I don't think there is anything unusual about this news?"

The youngest Mei smiled and said, "Hehe, Brother Liu, this is the difference between the central government and the local government. The asymmetry of information must have given different estimates to the information. Let me tell you the truth, you know why you were specially removed from other departments last year. The place is allocated to this Tan Family Village?"

Shopkeeper Liu shook his head blankly.

The youngest Mei said in a low voice: "The lord has an old friend who is not very close, and he had a lot of troubles with Tan Yefeng in the past, but Tan Yefeng's martial arts are far behind him, so Tan Yefeng Ye Feng has always been reluctant to speak out. Who knows, at the beginning of last year, the Lord got the news that Tan Yefeng's old friend who fought in Vietnam was killed by Tan Yefeng at Wuying's feet. The Lord was very surprised. How did Tan Yefeng's skill improve so much? That's why my brother found an opportunity to call Brother Liu here."

Shopkeeper Liu was stunned.

The youngest Mei said again in a low voice: "This matter belongs to the level of confidentiality. I am afraid that my brother will not understand and lose useful information for no reason, so I will tell the truth. Brother Wanwang will keep it a secret, and I will pay more attention to it in the future." Pay attention, if you get credit, can't I also recommend meritorious service?"

Shopkeeper Liu hurriedly bowed, and said, "I see, Brother Mei, with a general direction, I will not fish in troubled waters. I believe that with the breakthrough of Young Master Tan San, I will definitely live up to the expectations of the Lord and Brother Mei." recommended."

The youngest Mei also nodded.

The two talked a little more, and when the sky turned pale, they went down the mountain separately.

These two people exchanged such confidential things in the wild mountain temple, but they just clicked on Zhang Xiaohua's sleeping hole, treated him as a dead thing, and didn't hide it. It's very chic to leave ass.

In fact, the youngest Mei in black who came earlier had no plan to let Zhang Xiaohua live until the early morning. Therefore, he didn't look at Zhang Xiaohua's face at all. He was just a lost child. If a dead spot is hit at random, where is there any chance of survival?

However, shopkeeper Liu, the man in black, was cautious, and he touched Zhang Xiaohua's sleeping point first. He knew the strength of shopkeeper Liu. Without twelve hours, he would not be able to explain himself. Yemiao The bonfire in the middle of the night had been extinguished when the two were talking, and they did not add dead branches. One day and one night, who can survive this winter of dripping water?

In the minds of Mei Laoyao and shopkeeper Liu, no matter why this child came to this mountain temple, it is his unlucky luck. If he didn't touch his dead spot, it means he has the virtue of good life, and he definitely didn't The reason for getting out alive is definitely the end of being frozen to death.

And the youngest Mei also wanted to make up for it before leaving. Unfortunately, shopkeeper Liu let him go first. How could he have the nerve to not believe shopkeeper Liu's way of handling it in front of shopkeeper Liu? Only go out first, with a leadership style that you can handle things and I can rest assured.

In their view, such killings and silences are like clapping hands, killing a fly. They don't care about it, but they don't think about it. A young man lost his way in the barren hills and finally found a place to sleep. , people sleep soundly, what's bothering you? Just such a sleeping point, and freeze to death here? If this is the case, it would be better to shoot him to death at that time, because he would have to suffer such torture before he died.

It's a pity that auspicious people have their own celestial features. After the two walked for a long time, the sky gradually became brighter. That day, a ray of sunlight passed over the mountain temple, and Zhang Xiaohua, who was touched by someone in his sleeping hole, suddenly opened his eyes, as usual , a ball of twinkling caught in his eyes, stretched flatly, sat up, looked around, there were still ashes from the bonfire that had lost heat, then recalled what happened last night, stretched his waist, and secretly rejoiced Well, without this wild temple, I still don't know how to spend the long night.

Wiping her face with the snow outside, Zhang Xiaohua energized herself to practice boxing and sword moves until her body was completely comfortable, then she was able to stop, eat some dry food, and prepare to go down the mountain to find the market town.

But after leaving the mountain temple, looking at the snow-capped mountains, Zhang Xiaohua frowned fiercely, Mrs. Jingxuan is really harmful, what kind of hidden ghost place did she find, and she walked for a day before she came to This mountain range, how to go next?

While hesitating, annoyed and cursing, Zhang Xiaohua's eyes suddenly lit up, and before the steps of the mountain temple, several lines of footprints could be seen!

The footprints of the small feet are naturally Zhang Xiaohua's own, and there are a few rows of big feet beside them, so it goes without saying that they must have been left by others when they came to the mountain temple. Zhang Xiaohua was excited for a while. When she came yesterday, it was already dark, so she naturally didn’t see it. Now that it’s daylight, she pointed out the direction for herself. This mountain temple is really very spiritual, no wonder there are still people in such a remote place Come.

However, there seems to be no statues in the mountain temple?

But why does Zhang Xiaohua care if there is a god statue? After thanking this inexplicable god in her heart, Zhang Xiaohua packed up and prepared to follow this trail to find the market town.

At least, you can find a place where there are people.
