Seeing the tall and thin man with beads of sweat on his forehead and patting his chest in embarrassment, the old man glanced at the horse beside him and finally let go of his worries.
This stupid look of running on his legs instead of riding a horse doesn't look like a gangster. Besides, I, my granddaughter, and the boat under my feet may not necessarily be worth someone's horse. How can a wealthy businessman rob a beggar?
Thinking of this, the vigilance in his eyes dissipated a lot. He sat on the bow of the boat and asked curiously: "Little brother, you said that I helped you a lot, old man. What do you mean?"
"Oh, oh." The man scratched his head in embarrassment and said sheepishly, "Look at me, I forgot to mention it."
He straightened up and saluted and explained: "Boatman, I was walking and accidentally lost my way. Could you please help me show the way to Yunshan?"
When they heard the word "Yunshan", the expressions of the old man and his granddaughter changed drastically, and they hurriedly advised: "Little brother, you can't go to Yunshan, there are bandits, a whole bunch of bandits!"
"Huh? Bandit? How could that happen?"
The old man affirmed: "Yes, bandits! I heard that there are quite a few of them, tens of thousands of them. They are occupying the mountain as king, burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil!"
He seemed to have guessed the man's purpose, and then advised: "Little brother, listen to the old man's advice. If you want to go to Yunzhou, you might as well take a detour. Your wealth and life are important!"
The tall and thin man shook his head, "I don't want to go to Yunzhou, I just want to go to Yunshan."
"Hey, why don't you listen to my advice? The old man is not teasing you!" The old man was anxious and jumped out of the boat and pulled the man, saying sincerely.
The tall and thin man was unmoved, "Boatman, please help me with the directions. I have something important to go to Yunshan."
"well."
Hearing this, the old man could no longer persuade him. He raised his hand and pointed at the river and said: "Go down the river and climb over the mountain on the right where the water slows down. You will see a mountain shrouded in clouds and mist not far away. That is Yunshan Mountain. ”
After looking up and recognizing the direction, the man thanked the boatman with his hands and said, "Thank you boatman for showing me the way. It's a pity that I went out in an emergency and didn't bring any gold or silver..."
"It's a trivial matter, just a few words, no need." The old man shook his head and said seriously.
After pondering for a moment, the tall and thin man pulled the reins of the horse and said with a hearty smile: "This is no small matter. If there is no boatman to guide me, I don't know how long I will have to fumble. How about the boatman gives me a ride and the horse will be used as reward. How about ?”
"Seriously?" the old man asked happily.
"Of course I take it seriously."
After saying that, the man handed him the horse's reins and said with a smile, "I'll give you the horse first to show my sincerity."
The old man took the horse's rein and immediately beamed with joy. He called his granddaughter to give her the horse's rein and warned, "Don't move around. I'll go and come back."
Regardless of whether the granddaughter heard it or not, for fear that the man would regret it, she hurriedly pulled him onto the boat.
The boat went down the river, taking advantage of the force of the water to go very fast, and soon sailed far away. The man stood on the bow of the boat and admired the mountain scenery on the left and right, quite leisurely and comfortable.
After walking for more than an hour, the boat docked. The old man pointed to a mountain and said: "Sir, you can see Yunshan Mountain after climbing over this mountain. The old man can only send it here..."
"It doesn't matter." The man said softly, holding his hands behind his back.
After saying that, he stepped off the boat, looked up at the mountains, his true energy rose up, he tapped the ground lightly with his toes, and instantly rose into the air, flying towards the mountains with his own energy.
Seeing this situation with his own eyes, the old man felt his mouth was dry and he could not regain consciousness for a long time. It wasn't until the river wind blew that I shivered, woke up, swallowed, then paddled back.
While holding the boat pole, he murmured, "My eyes are dazzled, I must be dazzled..."
When the sun set in the west, the tall and thin man finally arrived at the foot of Yunshan Mountain.
Looking up at the misty mountains in front of me, I couldn't help but curse, "You really know how to pick a place!"
Shaking his head helplessly, Yu Qi flew up the mountain. It wasn't until halfway up the mountain that he could vaguely see a figure. He couldn't help but grin. It seemed like he was in the right place.
There is a camp set up on the mountainside, and you can see a lot of human activity. Seeing this, the tall and thin man nodded with satisfaction, and then frowned again. It didn't look like it could accommodate tens of thousands of people.
With doubts, he quietly landed in front of the largest wooden house, opened the door and walked in.
There were three people sitting in the room. When they heard the door open, they all turned their heads, and when they saw the face of the person coming, their expressions changed.
The people on the left and right looked puzzled. They didn't know the man. After looking at each other, they asked in unison: "Who are you? How did you get up the mountain?"
As for the man sitting at the top, his eyes lit up and he was so happy that he felt a little at a loss.
The tall and thin man pulled up a chair and sat down, wagging his finger and joking: "An Yitai, you really know how to find a place. If I were at a lower level, I definitely wouldn't be able to find this place!"
The two people on the left and right looked relieved, because An Yitai was the name of the man above. And judging by the tone of the tall, thin man, the two of them were very familiar. No wonder they were able to go up the mountain quietly.
An Yitai smiled bitterly and said, "Oh, there's nothing I can do. That pig in Shu is chasing him too hard. Hide tighter so you don't get caught."
Then he asked: "I heard that Hexi is at war with the Hu people. I don't know if it is true or not?"
"Well..." The tall and thin man nodded and said seriously: "Really, the fight has already started. But don't worry, everything is under control."
Hearing this, An Yitai raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise: "Has the imperial court agreed to the general's recruitment of troops?"
"It doesn't count as agreement, but the meaning is similar."
"What does the general mean?"
"According to the original plan." The tall and thin man confirmed.
An Yitai nodded, then looked troubled, "With Shen Yuan here, it's difficult..."
"The general has received your letter. Shen Yuanlin, I will help you solve it and ensure that the plan goes smoothly." The tall and thin man said calmly.
He tilted his head to look at An Yitai and asked curiously, "How many troops do you have now?"
"More than 4,000 in total." An Yitai blurted out, paused and then said bitterly, "But the equipment is stretched."
But the tall and thin man didn't seem to hear the rest of the words. He lowered his head and counted on his fingers. After a long time, he raised his head and said softly, "Four thousand people are enough. Go according to the plan. I will go to Yunzhou to see Shen Yuanlin."
"Wait for my good news. I think it won't take much time."
"Okay." An Yitai replied.
The tall and thin man didn't waste any words. He walked out of the house with his hands behind his back and flew towards Yunzhou.
After he walked away, the two people on the left and right retracted their gazes and asked, "Who is this?"
"He is from the Liu family in Hexi. I don't know who he is, but he is highly regarded by the general. With his cultivation, he should be able to deal with Shen Yuanlin." An Yitai answered in a deep voice.
"Is his cultivation very high?" The man on the left asked curiously.
"Grandmaster."
Hiss.
The two gasped. Although they couldn't guess whether it was a great grandmaster or a junior grandmaster, from the aura on his body, even if it was a junior grandmaster, he was still one of the top ones.
From this point of view, there is really some hope.
