Chapter 103: Zhujiazhuang

He rode a fast horse and walked quickly, and after another half a day, it was not until the sun set that Ximen Qing arrived at a beautiful land with beautiful mountains and rivers.

Not far away, there is a tall hill that looks like a steep dragon head, which is the famous Dulonggang. A large mountain village is built on Dulonggang. The city wall of the mountain village is built of stone, which is three or four meters high. There are weapons and arrows arranged on it, and there are guns guarding it. A wooden house is built on the four corners of the city wall, which should be a place for the city guards to rest. [bsp;       There is a three or four meters wide moat in front of the mountain village, which surrounds the entire mountain village. There is a large suspension bridge on the gate of the village, which is the only passage to the village.

Below the hills, there are a large forest, and further down there are many farmhouses living scattered, but it can be seen that these farmhouses survive by relying on the hills.

"That's Zhujiazhuang? It's true that the garrison is very strict. No wonder it's safe and sound by the mouth of Liangshanpo!" Ximen Qing looked at Zhujiazhuang in Dulonggang and said with a smile.

Then Ximen Qing slapped his horse and got off the road and came to the farm village in the middle of the hill.

The people at the foot of the mountain were all honest farmers. After seeing Ximen Qing, they stared at Ximen Qing with a cautious look, fearing that Ximen Qing was a fine work of Liangshan.

Ximen Qing naturally saw the hostility of the people, so he stopped the horse, turned around and led the horse into a farmhouse next to him.

The owner of the farmer was grinding noodles with stone mills. When he saw Ximen Qing coming in, he felt panicked and quickly put down his work and asked, "Who are you? You should not be from the village. What's the matter if you come to my house?"

Ximen Qing smiled and said, "Uncle, don't panic, don't worry that I am a fine worker from Liangshan! I am just a passing person, and I want to spend some rest by passing by the village!" After saying that, he hurriedly took out some broken silver from his arms, which was worth half a penthouse and stuffed it into the man's hand, and then said, "For the crime of interference, please don't be surprised by uncle! This is the guest penthouse, please accept it with a smile!"

The farmer's owner panicked and then pushed him, "Oh, it turns out that the little brother is a passerby. Since he is a passerby, I should treat you well. There is no need for this guest bank, no need for it!"

Ximen Qing smiled and stuffed the silver to him, saying, "Uncle, don't refuse, I'll bother him!"

The farmer was also very moved when he saw the silver in his hand, so he stopped refusing. Instead, he hurriedly invited Ximen Qing into the main house and asked Ximen Qing to sit down. Then he served Ximen Qing tea and took some peanuts.

The farmer's owner said awkwardly: "There is no good thing to entertain in the farmer's house. Don't be surprised by it, little brother!"

Ximen Qing smiled and said, "Uncle, you are polite, I'm disturbing you! By the way, I don't know if the uncle's surname is? Who else is there in the family?"

The farmer's owner sat down at Ximen Qing's hand and said, "My surname is Zhu. Because I am the third child, everyone calls me Zhu San. I am from this Zhujia Village. I have lived here for generations since my ancestors. Haha... My wife went back to her parents' home to see him. He is from Hujia Village. There is still a son in the family, and he is now serving as a guard in Zhujia Village on his post."

Ximen Qing nodded and asked, "By the way, Uncle Zhu, I want to ask you something!"

"What's the matter? Ask, as long as I know, I will tell you!" Zhu San said with a smile.

Ximen Qing asked: "I just want to ask Uncle Zhu if you have seen two men in white pass by here, one of whom has a bandage on his left eye."

What surprised Ximen Qing was that Zhu San actually nodded and said, "Well, I saw them. They happened to pass by the village two days ago, but I took them to the post and entered Zhujiazhuang!"

"Oh? Really?" Ximen Qing was overjoyed and asked hurriedly: "Uncle Zhu, did you say they entered the Zhu family village?"

Zhu San said: "That's right, one of the two men was blind in their left eye, and they were bandaged as you said. They had a good relationship with the three young masters in the village. I heard that the third young master even called them uncle!"

Uncle Ximen Qing was stunned and then thought of another mysterious man in white mentioned by the shopkeeper in Liangshan County Restaurant. Could that man was the master of the Sanxiong of the Zhu family, so he was called Tianwu and Tianliu Master Uncle?

"It must be like this!" Ximen Qing nodded in his heart and thought to himself: "It seems that the man should be Tian Wu's senior brother, but I don't know who he is! Humph, it seems that he must go to Zhujiazhuang."

---------------

The night is as bright as ink, and the moon hangs high.

After Zhu San and his wife rested, Ximen Qing came out of the side room, and then started running Xue Wuhen toward Dulonggang behind the village.

But as soon as he walked out of Zhujia Village, Ximen Qing was stopped by a forest.

Zhujia Village is located at the foot of Dulonggang Mountain, and there is a large forest between the two. Only by passing through this forest can you find the road to work and then arrive at the front of Zhujiazhuang's mountain village. However, when it comes to this forest between Zhujia Village and Zhujiazhuang, there is great knowledge.

This forest was not planted at will, but Zhu Chaofeng, the head of the Zhu family, asked someone to set up the formation first, and then plant trees in the formation. If ordinary people have no secrets after entering the forest, they will not be able to find the entrance and exit at all, so they can only return the same way. The entire forest surrounds Dulonggang, leaving Zhujiazhuang on the hill in the formation map, which is also the first barrier for Zhujiazhuang to not be harassed.

Dulonggang guarded the exit of Liangshanbo North Road and blocked the main roads of Liangshan. If Zhujiazhuang had no ability, it would have been destroyed by the bandits of Liangshan long ago.

Look, Ximen Qing was trapped by the maze formed by the woods.

After entering the woods, Ximen Qing followed the road in the woods. He only walked for a quarter of an hour, but still didn't go out. He walked for a quarter of an hour and had not walked out. He had to say something was a problem. Ximen Qing, who realized that he planned not to walk on the road, was walking through the jungle. However, when he stepped into the jungle, he was blocked by the antlers, traps, and pits buried on the ground of the jungle. If he accidentally got it, he would be covered by the clouds.

Helplessly, Ximen Qing could only jump onto the tree and then jumped like a monkey on the tree.

That's it, Ximen Qing took another two quarters of an hour to get out of the woods and come to Dulonggang.

"Damn it, what a strange forest, it looks like a maze! I was surprised when I heard from a book in my previous life that Song Jiang San fought against Zhujiazhuang. I was wondering what was there to fight, but now it seems that it is really hard to fight! Even this forest directly trapped the army of ten thousand people!" Turning around and looking at the forest behind me, Ximen Qing sighed and then touched his chin and planned: "We must find a way to get the method of the forest in the future! Listening to Zhu San's words during the day, everyone in Zhujia Village should know the method of the forest. Hehe, this is easy to do!"

Then, Ximen Qing raised his foot up the hill and ran towards the mountain village.
