Chapter 138 First Exploration of Tonggu Mountain

Rongzhou is a state capital connected to Yunnan on Guangnan West Road. It is a natural barrier compared with Yunnan.

There is a prosperous cottage, Tonggu Village, 25 miles southwest of Rongzhou. This cottage is the most powerful of all the cottages on Guangnan West Road. Its owner is the leader of the Kyushu Eleven Village Alliance. The venue of this gathering is also located here.

As the party time approached, the only town near Tonggu Mountain suddenly prospered. The only inn in the town has no empty room. And other shops in the town that can live in are also overcrowded.

"Sister-in-law, sister, I have already inquired about it. If you want to enter Tonggu Village, you must have a post. Yang Zongfeng was a little frustrated and sat down, fiddling with the dishes on the table with chopsticks. Mu Guiying nodded slightly and didn't say anything, because she had long guessed that Tonggu Village was not so easy to enter.

After discussion, Mu Guiying decided to come to Tonggu Village in person, and everyone in the house wanted to follow to see the bustle. However, it was not easy for many people to accompany him. Mu Guiying thought about it and only took Yang Zongfeng with him. Although the road is not very close, it needs a man to drive and do some trivial things. But Mu Guiying is also a married woman and is not suitable to walk with other men. Among the crowd, Yang Zongfeng, the younger brother of Mu Guiying, is also suitable.

For convenience, Mu Guiying and Yang Zongfeng are commensurate with their seniors. In order not to let people pay too much attention to her stomach, Mu Guiying also wore some generous clothes. Yang Zongfeng also received Yang Zongbao's instructions and took good care of Mu Guiying. When the two arrived at the small town under Tonggu Mountain, it was the day before the party.

Because there was no place to live in the town, Mu Guiying and Yang Zongfeng took them to find a relatively simple farmer in the small village next to the town and stayed as an inn. Because Mu Guiying wanted to know more about Tonggu Village, she asked Yang Zongfeng to go out to inquire. When Yang Zongfeng went out, Mu Guiying also had nothing to do to chat with the woman of the farmer's family to see if she could know something from her.

Unexpectedly, the woman noticed that Mu Guiying inquired about Tonggu Village and said with a wary face, "This lady, what are you doing in the cottage?"

Mu Guiying felt awe-in. Looking at the woman's appearance, she should not be the only one who inquired about Tonggu Village. But the most important thing in front of her is that the woman seems to know something about Tonggu Village. After thinking about it, Mu Guiying smiled and said, "Don't worry, this lady, the little sister is not from the government office. The little sister is also a martial arts practitioner. She was ordered by the teacher to practice everywhere and see it. Today, when I passed by the town in front of me, I knew what meeting the cottage on Tonggu Mountain was going to hold. My little sister was curious and wanted to go up the mountain to have a look, so I asked my sister-in-law.

"Oh." Looking at Mu Guiying so kindly, the woman's eyes were less vigilant. However, she still refused to say much, just picked up what everyone knew and said it. Finally, she just said repeatedly, "This royal village owner is a good man and never comes to our village to rob things. When we have a bad harvest, they will send us food. The owner of the village is not a mountain thief, but a female Bodhisattva.

"Lord Wangzhai? Female Bodhisattva?" Mu Guiying was stunned, and then she realized that the Tonggu Village was actually a woman. Moreover, this woman is also the leader of the Kyushu Eleven Village Alliance on Guangnan West Road. I don't know why, listening to the woman say that the owner of the palace is good, Mu Guiying actually remembered the woman she met in the broken temple. It was also in Liuzhou that rescued Yang Wenguang, the benefactor of the Yang family.

In order to know more, Mu Guiying began to ask other questions. For example, there are no places to go in Rongzhou, or there are some strange anecdotes. Anyway, I didn't ask Tongguzhai again. Naturally, the woman really thought that Mu Guiying was really experienced and slowly relaxed her guard.

With the quarrel with the woman, Mu Guiying really learned a lot from her language. Back in the room, Mu Guiying connected what she knew together and got out. The owner of this Tonggu Village is most likely to be the woman who saved Yang Wenguang.

Although this king's village owner inherited her father's business and became the owner of Tonggu Village, she is indeed able to do it. She became the leader of the Kyushu Eleven Village Alliance, which was won by Wang Zhaizhu through martial arts. It is said that the owner of Wangzhai swept all the masters of the other ten villages with a long-handled knife and finally sat on the seat of the alliance leader. However, the lord of the village has not been shaken in the position of the leader of the alliance for six or seven years, which shows that her ability is not only superb in martial arts.

Mu Guiying lay on ** thinking about Tonggu Mountain. It was not until Yang Zongfeng knocked on the door to serve the meal that he realized that he had been thinking for several hours. Seeing Yang Zongfeng coming back, Mu Guiying asked him about his harvest of going out for most of the day.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Yang Zongfeng heard Mu Guiying's inquiry, he immediately said with a sad face, "Sister, it's a little difficult for us to go up the mountain..."

Before that, every time a party was held in Kyushu Eleven Village, I couldn't wait for more people to go. But this time, it became strict. Every invited village owner will have an invitation post written by the owner of Tonggu Village himself. With this post, each invited person can only bring 20 people. If there is one more person, Tongguzhai will not be allowed in.

In addition to this news, Yang Zongfeng inquired about other news, and Mu Guiying has learned about it from the women's population of this farm. For this reason, Yang Zongfeng was somewhat hit. He thought he was useless. After running for more than half a day, he didn't find any useful information.

Mu Guiying looked at his appearance and said funnyly, "You can't be blamed. This Tonggu Village is closely controlled by the owner of the Wangzhai, so few people outside should know about the situation in the village. Otherwise, why don't you know the name of the king's village?

"Sister, the ability of this Wangzhai master is not inferior to the time when you were in charge of Mu Kezhai." Yang Zongfeng thought that when he studied art with Zhong Han, he had never heard of Mu Guiying's deeds. Now I think about it, but it is very similar to the owner of the royal village.

Mu Guiying nodded and smiled, "I didn't expect that there would be such a female village owner who was not inferior to me in the southernmost part of the Song Dynasty."

Mu Guiying and Yang Zongfeng were chatting while eating, and just as they put down their chopsticks, a man's voice came from outside. The man's voice was very loud, but it made Mu Guiying and Yang Zongfeng feel familiar and strange. The two looked at each other and then calmed down and listened to the conversation between the man and the woman.

It turns out that this woman and the man are siblings. Because my sister is widowed but doesn't want to marry again, she lives alone in a corner of this small village. However, for some reason, the woman's younger brother was looked up by the owner of the king of Tonggu Village and asked him to work in the village. Because the Jiuzhou Eleven Village will hold a meeting tomorrow, and the village is in urgent need of manpower, the younger brother came down the mountain to find some familiar women in the village to help.

Hearing this, Mu Guiying and Yang Zongfeng's eyes immediately lit up. The two began to think about how to use this opportunity to go up the mountain.

But it didn't take long for the younger brother's voice to sound again. Although his voice had been much lower, it was still heard clearly by Mu Guiying and Yang Zongbao. This time, the younger brother's tone seemed not to be satisfied: "Sister, how can you let strangers live at home? You don't know what happened in the past, so aren't you afraid that these two people are the same as before?

"No. I see that these two people are very kind, unlike those people.

"The owner said that this person can't look at his appearance. Look how good the owner of the mulberry cottage is. Didn't he defect to that southern country and kill so many of our brothers?

"Then I let them live and received the money. Should I go back and drive them away?"

"Of course. Tomorrow's party is very important. It can't be destroyed. I'll drive them away.

Mu Guiying and Yang Zongfeng looked at each other. Come on, they are going to drive us away. Let's take the initiative to go out. Thinking about it, the two got up and walked out of the room one after the other. When Mu Guiying and Yang Zongfeng met the woman's brother face to face, they were stunned. Among them, Mu Guiying laughed.

"How are you" and "How are you"

Yang Zongfeng's words were the same as the man, but he confused the woman beside him. Seeing that his younger brother was stunned, he pulled his sleeve: "Brother, do you know him?"

"I've met once." The woman's brother nodded, but his eyes were a little confused, and asked, "Why are you here?"

This woman's younger brother is not someone else. It was Mu Guiying who met one of the passers-by when she was set up in the ruined temple. Mu Guiying still remembers it very clearly, because Zhang Li's voice was so loud that the woman was reprimanded. In this way, that woman is really the owner of Tonggu Village.

"Originally, I wanted to go up the mountain to see who the owner of Tonggu Village was. Now that I see you, I finally understand that the woman I saw that day should be the owner of the royal village of Guizhai. When Mu Guiying saw Zhang Li, she suddenly changed her mind and didn't plan to sneak up the mountain.

Zhang Li didn't expect that this was the second time he met, and the woman knew the origin of the owner of Wang Zhai and couldn't help but be on guard. Putting his hand on the knife handle around his waist, Zhang Li asked coldly, "Who the hell are you?"

"Brother Zhang, don't be nervous. We have no malice against Guizhai and the owner of Wangzhai." Mu Guiying smiled and didn't care about Zhang Li's expression. She continued, "I just want to see the owner of Wangzhai. Can you ask Brother Zhang to inform me?"

"Our village owner can't be seen by anyone who wants to see it. She is the leader of the Kyushu Eleven Village Alliance." Zhang Li's arrogant look stimulated Yang Zongfeng and made his face immediately cold.

Just as Mu Guiying meant, Yang Zongfeng also heard it, so he said coldly, "Mu Guiying, the deputy marshal of the rebel army, Huntianhou, is qualified to see your royal master?"

"Ah?!" Zhang Li immediately looked at Mu Guiying and was very surprised...
