Wanjie Dream Harvester

Chapter 101 Yanmen Pass

Qiao Feng took A'Zhu, bid farewell to everyone, and came to his hometown not far from Leigu Mountain, at the foot of Shaoshi Mountain.

The closer it got, the more nervous A'Zhu was, pulling Qiao Feng's arm: "Master Qiao, will your parents dislike me for being a maid and not like me?"

Qiao Feng patted her hand: "Sister Ah Zhu, don't worry, your parents are easy to talk to, it's too late to like you, besides, our family is originally a farming family, so why would we despise you? "

Hearing what he said, Ah Zhu felt relieved, and asked instead: "Then shall we bring some gifts to the town?"

Qiao Feng laughed in his heart, and replied: "No need, I will send money back every year, there is nothing lacking at home, and parents are not willing to use it, as long as you go back, it will be the best gift."

A'Zhu was immediately ashamed, and pinched his arm: "You are not ashamed, I will let you talk nonsense."

Qiao Feng couldn't help laughing when he saw her slightly annoyed and slightly angry look.

……

It was approaching noon, and from a distance, smoke could be seen rising from the foot of the mountain. Seeing this, Qiao Feng couldn't help but quicken his pace.

"Father, mother, Feng'er is back!"

When he saw the fenced yard, Qiao Feng shouted loudly.

The wooden door of the house opened with a creak, and Mother Qiao walked out quickly, wiping her hands on her apron with a smile on her face. Then, when she saw A'Zhu standing next to Qiao Feng, a smile on her face A smile is better than three points.

"Come in, come in, Feng'er, who is this girl?"

Mother Qiao stepped forward quickly, took A'Zhu's hand, looked left and right, and closed her mouth in satisfaction, making A'Zhu flush with shame.

Qiao Feng scratched his head, and said, "Mother, I'll introduce you, Sister Azhu is my...baby's..."

When he talked about the back, he hesitated and couldn't speak.

As someone who has experienced it, Qiao's mother immediately understood, and stopped asking: "Come into the room and talk, what does it sound like standing outside."

Turning around and shouting: "Damn old man, come out and see who is back."

When Father Qiao came out of the backyard and saw his son bringing a girl back, a flower blossomed on his old face.

Afterwards, Father Qiao sharpened his knife and rattled the chickens and sheep, while Mother Qiao was busy cooking by the stove, entertaining the son who hadn't come home for a long time, and the future daughter-in-law.

After drinking and eating, the family sat under the big tree in the yard drinking tea and enjoying the coolness. Qiao Feng said solemnly: "Father, mother, the child is going to choose an auspicious day to marry Ah Zhu, please allow it."

Mother Qiao hurriedly said: "Oh, this is a great thing. We must agree, but I don't know where the girl's natal family is..."

The implication is that you have to get the consent of your natal family, otherwise, wouldn't it be the same as elopement if you still get married?

Qiao Feng stopped Qiao's mother's words with his eyes, he patted A'Zhu's hand, and said softly: "Sister A'Zhu has never known who her parents are since she was a child, so there is no such thing as her mother's family."

Qiao's mother was shocked, and took A'Zhu's hand: "Girl, the old woman doesn't know the situation, don't worry, in the future, the old woman treats you as well as her own daughter, if this bastard bullies you in the future, you tell me, I'll fix him."

A'Zhu lowered her head, and replied softly: "Yes."

After reporting the matter to his parents, Qiao Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

After Qiao Feng and A'Zhu lived at home for nearly a month, they left their hometown and rushed to Luoyang, where he was going to deal with the affairs of the Beggar Gang.

Another month later, I left Luoyang and rushed to Yanmen Pass.

Yanmen Pass is located on Yanmen Dangerous Road [-] miles north of Daizhou.

Qiao Feng had been there before when he was a knight in the world, but at that time he had something important to do, so he hurried past without paying attention.

Right now they were not in a hurry, it was already noon when he and A'Zhu arrived in Daizhou, they had a hearty meal in the city, found a guest room, opened a room, and left the city to the north.

When I went up to the mountain in the north, I saw two peaks in the east and west, steep and steep, and the middle was winding and rugged. It was indeed a dangerous place.

On the east and west wings, there are undulating mountains.

The Great Wall on the ridge is winding, going east to Pingxing Pass, Zijing Pass, Dauma Pass, reaching Youyan, connecting to the vast sea; going west to Xuangang Pass, Ningwu Pass, Piantou Pass to the Yellow River.

There are two gates in the east and west in this pass, both of which are built with huge bricks.

Qiao Feng said: "Ah Zhu, geese travel from south to north, and it is difficult for geese to fly over the peaks. They all pass between the two peaks. Therefore, this place is called Yanmen, and this pass is called Yanmen Pass."

A'Zhu said with a smile: "Yo ho, I never thought that Uncle Qiao would know so much!"

Qiao Feng smiled heartily and said, "Of course, your Uncle Qiao knows a lot."

Yanmen Pass was an important town in the north of the Song Dynasty. There were more than [-] passes in the northern border, and Yanmen Pass was the most powerful. Once you left the pass for dozens of miles, you would reach the land of the Liao Kingdom. Therefore, there were heavy troops stationed at the pass.

Qiao Feng thought to himself, if he passed through the closed gate, he would inevitably be interrogated by the guards.

It was decided at the moment to take a detour from Gaoling in the west.

The two came to Jue Ling and looked around, but they saw Fanzhi and Wutai towering in the east; Ningwu and Zhushan in the west; Zhengyang and Shigu stood in the south; and Shuozhou and Mayi in the north.

The long slopes are steep, boundless, cold forests, and the scene is bleak.

After looking at the scenery for a while, the two walked around Jue Ridge and came to the side. Sure enough, there was a big rock standing on the side, and they looked up at the mountain wall.

I saw that the mountain wall was naturally flat and smooth, and in the middle there were rows of Khitan characters carved on it, but with age and exposure to wind, rain and sun, the writing on the stone is no longer very clear.

Qiao Feng clenched his fists tightly, with a look of disbelief in his eyes, is the Khitan people's life experience really true?
A'Zhu at the side comforted softly: "Uncle Qiao, why do you care whether you are Han or Khitan? As long as you act with a clear conscience, and you are worthy of the sky above and the people of the world below, that's enough!"

Qiao Feng hugged her tightly, and said: "The truth is this, and I know it too, but when I think about my identity, and how many Liao soldiers I have killed over the years to prevent the Liao Kingdom from going south, I will I feel very sad, they are my kinsmen."

Looking at Qiao Feng who was heartbroken, Azhu became very motherly, patted him on the back lightly, and said: "There are also thieves and scum among the Han people, and there are good people among the Khitan people, so why do you bother about who you are? What is Uncle Qiao's identity, no matter what decision you make, I, A'Zhu, will always be by your side."

Hearing this, Qiao Feng was very moved, nodded firmly and said: "I have decided, let's go to Tianshan Mountain, after we go back, we will go to Shaolin Temple, find Abbot Xuanci, ask him to give me an explanation, and find out who is hiding in the dark. Murong Bo."

A'Zhu said: "It's all up to you, you can do whatever Uncle Qiao wants."

Qiao Feng said softly: "After all this is over, I'll marry you, okay?"

A'Zhu replied softly: "Okay, it's all up to you."
