After Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing went through hardships and setbacks to retrieve the Jiuling Xianzhi and cured Zhao Baihe, there was thunderous joy in Yue Fei's camp. In order to celebrate this happy event, Yue Fei ordered his soldiers to go down the mountain to purchase fresh meat, fruits and vegetables, and prepare fine wine. He would have a good time with Zhao Baihe at the celebration party five days later, and he would not return until he was drunk.
In order to increase the joyful and peaceful atmosphere, Yue Fei wrote a letter himself, asking Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing to go to Han Shizhong's camp and invite Marshal Han and his family to a banquet.
Zhao Xueqing received the task, her beautiful face was smiling and she was overjoyed. Since Huang Tiandang said goodbye, she has not seen her adoptive father and mother for nearly a year. This trip to Zhenjiang is a good time to have a long talk with the marshal and his wife and share their family ties.
When riding off, Fu Tianpeng glanced at Zhao Xueqing's pretty face with dimples and flowers, and said casually: "The spring breeze is indescribable, and the peach and plum blossoms laugh at themselves."
After Zhao Xueqing heard this, she tapped Fu Tianpeng's ribs with her slender jade finger. Fu Tianpeng was caught off guard and his face turned blue due to the brief retrograde of his true energy.
After Zhao Xueqing saw his embarrassment, she let out a gentle smile as beautiful as a silver bell. Then she hit the horse and galloped away, riding away.
"Qingmei, you sneak attack on me. After I catch you, I will show you my methods."
Zhao Xueqing smiled "geki" and waved in front to signal Fu Tianpeng to come up quickly. Fu Tianpeng also hurriedly followed Zhao Xueqing.
Sharing weal and woe, experiencing life and death, the relationship between this pair of heroes has deepened. On the night of a day of continuous travel, Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing came to a wine shop in Shandong called "Exiled Immortal Ju".
Although the restaurant's sign borrows Li Taibai's elegant name, it is not very dazzling. On the contrary, the door of the wine shop is leaning forward, and the overgrown and decaying weeds have swallowed up most of the wine shop. The wine shop with a tall flagpole in front of the store has long been damaged and stained with oil, and a lingering wind has added to the signs of dilapidation.
Zhao Xueqing dismounted and looked up at the sky. It was already sunset and the fishing boats were singing late at night. Seeing that there was no village in front of or a shop in the back, we could only rest here for the night.
After the two tied up the horses and fed them with fodder, Zhao Xueqing asked Fu Tianpeng to pick up some firewood and make a fire. In this wilderness, a fire can not only keep warm, but can also effectively prevent wild animals from harming you.
After the fire was built, Zhao Xueqing opened the baggage she had brought with her. Apart from the silver coins and letter paper, there were only two steamed buns left in it. Seeing the dry steamed buns, Zhao Xueqing frowned, raised her pretty face, and shook her head from time to time.
When Fu Tianpeng saw this, he smirked at Zhao Xueqing. Zhao Xueqing bit her lips tightly and stamped her feet in anger: "Brother Tianpeng, it's my fault that you ate all the dried meat and flatbreads along the way. Now you can only eat steamed buns."
Just when the two of them were still worried about how to fill their stomachs, suddenly there were bursts of "ka-ka" sounds in the woods outside the wine shop. The sounds were high and low, and varied. Zhao Xueqing had never heard of such a sound. She frowned slightly, held the Chanjuan sword in her hand, and watched the movements around her vigilantly.
Fu Tianpeng smiled and told Zhao Xueqing that this was a good thing delivered to his door. Hearing these words, Zhao Xueqing looked at Fu Tianpeng with searching eyes, as if trying to find the answer on his face. However, Fu Tianpeng just smiled faintly and said, "Sister Qing, please wait a moment." After saying that, Fu Tianpeng's figure disappeared into the night with a swift and agile figure.
After a while, Fu Tianpeng laughed and ran in. Zhao Xueqing also smiled like a peach when she saw a chicken in his hand. She pointed at the chicken and asked Fu Tianpeng: "Brother Tianpeng, could this be a grouse?"
Fu Tianpeng nodded and said: "Sister Qing, you are right, this is grouse. Its meat is tender and tender, but it is incredibly delicious."
After a brief conversation, Fu Tianpeng cleaned up the grouse, found yellow mud, wrapped it tightly around the grouse, fixed it on one end of a pine branch, and then grilled it on the fire. Soon the aroma and deliciousness filled the air, and Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing's taste buds were aroused, ready to enjoy the delicious food.
After the grouse is cooked, the yellow mud will fall off automatically. The meaty aroma of grouse perfectly blends with the fragrance of pine branches. It has the original nature of game and the natural freshness of vegetation. The delicious enjoyment is beyond words.
Fu Tianpeng broke off a chicken wing and handed it to Zhao Xueqing. After tasting it, Zhao Xueqing was full of praise for Fu Tianpeng's craftsmanship.
"Brother Tianpeng, your barbecue skills are worthy of praise. From now on, you must be more ingenious and grill more delicacies for me to taste."
After hearing what Zhao Xueqing said, Fu Tianpeng held a chicken leg in his hand and looked up at the roof of the wine shop thoughtfully.
Zhao Xueqing saw that he was in a daze, and then she poked him in the ribs with her delicate jade-like fingers, and then asked pretending to be angry: "Brother Tianpeng, people are talking to you, what are you thinking about?"
Fu Tianpeng frowned, slightly moved the corners of his mouth, and then said with a serious expression: "It's not that easy to eat the barbecue I cook, unless you commit yourself to it."
When Zhao Xueqing heard this, she immediately lowered her head in shame. Her pretty face in pink and white was as beautiful as clouds under the firelight. Fu Tianpeng's heart was pounding. He slowly walked to Zhao Xueqing, kissed her gently on the cheek, and then stretched out his arms to hold her in his arms. Zhao Xueqing nestled in Fu Tianpeng's arms, silently feeling his body temperature and surging heartbeat.
After a long time, Fu Tianpeng asked Zhao Xueqing: "Sister Qing, let's hurry up tomorrow and see Marshal Han before sunset."
Zhao Xueqing nodded, took the words and replied: "Military affairs are important. We have to speed up our pace and complete the tasks assigned by Commander Yue. We also need to prepare for the Heroes Conference."
As soon as Zhao Xueqing finished speaking, Fu Tianpeng said seriously: "Sister Qing, apart from military affairs and the Heroes Conference, aren't there any other serious things?"
"What?" Zhao Xueqing looked at Fu Tianpeng with a pair of beautiful eyes, and then asked in a puzzled tone.
Fu Tianpeng told Zhao Xueqing that he would definitely ask Yue Shuai to officiate his wedding at the Heroes Conference. Zhao Xueqing blushed again after hearing this, and she whispered: "I didn't agree to marry you."
The two played around for a while, and the night became much darker. Zhao Xueqing told Fu Tianpeng that it was getting late and he should go to bed early. Fu Tianpeng spread the clean hay on the ground and let Zhao Xueqing sleep on it, while he lay down on a stone platform inside the wine shop.
While sleeping, Zhao Xueqing faintly heard the sound of subtle footsteps. She immediately opened her eyes and looked around for movement. The footsteps quietly stopped the moment Zhao Xueqing woke up. After a while of silence outside the door, there was another "rustling" sound in the forest.
This voice was as thick as gold and stone, with a faint murderous intent. Zhao Xueqing saw that Fu Tianpeng was still sleeping soundly, walking with soft clouds and flowers under his feet, and quietly left the door with the Chanjuan sword in his hand.
Outside, the bright moon is like a silver plate, the stars are like broken jade, the vast sky is clear, and the light lingers outside the dense forest, unable to penetrate the endless darkness. Zhao Xueqing stood in front of the dense forest. Seeing the dim and dark depths of the forest, her expression became solemn.
She slowed down and explored the forest. Suddenly, several sneers came from a tall willow tree in the dense forest. "Hey hey hey...hahahaha"
The sneers are intermittent, sometimes high-pitched and sometimes low, whimpering and sad, which makes people feel chilled to the bone and broken to the core after hearing it.
Zhao Xueqing drew her sword and stopped, her beautiful starry eyes showing a cold light. She knows that the enemy is hiding in the dark and may launch a sneak attack at any time, so she must maintain a high degree of alert.
Zhao Xueqing continued to look around, watching the movements here intently. Just after the strange screams in the forest stopped, suddenly black mist rose in the air and filled with turbid air. Zhao Xueqing felt that the scene in front of her had become hazy and blurry.
When the smoke cleared, Zhao Xueqing felt that her feet were weak and she had no strength at all.
At this time, someone not far in front of her laughed and said: "Brother, you still have a trick. You noticed that this girl discovered our whereabouts and released the Jade Toad Cartilage Powder to bring her down. Otherwise, she and the boy named Fu will fight with each other." Combining them will be very detrimental to us."
As soon as he finished speaking, another person said with extremely cold words: "How many times have I told you, the winner is king. When traveling in the world, don't care about methods and means, as long as you defeat the enemy."
The other two people accompanying this man nodded in agreement with the elder brother's words. Seeing Zhao Xueqing who was about to faint, the person who spoke first had an evil smile on his face. He reached out and was about to catch Zhao Xueqing.
However, his move was stopped by the boss, whose face was half covered with an iron mask.
There was no fresh breath at all, as if all the blood had been sucked dry, making him pale and thin. At this moment, this face is even more chilling because of the dim moonlight.
"What do you want to do?" The boss opened his eyes wide and shouted.
Seeing that his eldest brother was angry, this man knelt down tremblingly and said that he wanted to take her as his wife.
The boss snorted coldly, and then said to him: "You are so bold, you dare to even think about the person that the Prime Minister likes. Before you see the Prime Minister and complete the task, you'd better give me Be honest, or see how I deal with you."
This man was so frightened by his elder brother's majesty that he repeatedly begged for mercy. The eldest brother asked this man to trap Zhao Xueqing with a rope. As long as she was in his hands, it would be easy to capture Fu Tianpeng.
Just when this person was about to attack Zhao Xueqing, a cold light flashed in front of him, and the fierce momentum of sharp-edged cirrus clouds and blowing snow pressed directly against his face. The man was so frightened that he stepped back, but his dodge was ineffective.
At this time, the elder brother stepped forward, stretched out his claws like iron pincers, pinched the man's neck, and pulled him back hard. When the eldest brother took action to save people, the sword light also arrived at the same time.
The man screamed "Ah!" and one of his arms was chopped off with a sharp knife. The blood poured out and the pain was so intense that the man almost fainted. The boss took action in time to protect his heart and bandaged him to stop the bleeding. When a strong enemy is at hand, the boss's movements are smooth and smooth. This calmness and calmness make people feel how terrifying he is.
"The danger is so close and you can still remain calm. You are not an ordinary person." Fu Tianpeng held the knife in his hand and stood in front of his opponent with the roots of the old tree at his feet.
"Hmph! You can hurt my brother Chu Lin Ying from right in front of me, and your martial arts skills are indeed good. No wonder the prime minister found us and asked us to kill you at all costs."
Fu Tianpeng saw the unconscious Zhao Xueqing and wanted to use his true energy to help her wake up. The boss told him coldly that as long as Fu Tianpeng's energy was depleted, he would definitely die in his own hands.
"Shameless thieves, using dirty tricks, none of you can leave today. I'm going to make you pay the price for plotting against Qingmei."
As soon as Fu Tianpeng said something, the boss let out a few sad laughs. "Hahahaha, our Snow Ridge Three Eagles have never faced an opponent in the southwest for more than 30 years. Today, we are challenged by a young boy. It is really ridiculous. Boy, if I hadn't made an appointment with the Prime Minister, I would have killed you and that little girl. Killed in the palm of your hand. Come on, I will fly to the sky to see what you are capable of?"
Facing the arrogant enemy, Fu Tianpeng revealed his blue wave sword after infusing Zhao Xueqing's energy. The cold light of the sword shoots into the autumn water, and the sea of qi is churning and surging. Fu Tianpeng took out the sword from its sheath and concentrated the true energy in his Dantian. I vowed to decide the outcome, life and death with the Snow Ridge Three Eagles.
