Chapter 33 Yanmen Pass

Qiao Feng took Azhu and said goodbye to everyone and came to his hometown not far from Leigu Mountain, at the foot of Shaoshi Mountain.

The closer he got, the more nervous Azhu was, and he pulled Qiao Feng's arm: "Uncle Qiao, will your parents dislike me as a maid and don't like me?"

Qiao Feng patted her hands: "My sister, please don't worry. My parents are easy to talk to. It's too late to like you. Besides, our family is a farmer, so how can we dislike you?"

When Azhu heard him say this, he relaxed and asked, "So should we bring some gifts to the town?"

Qiao Feng was amused and replied: "No, I send money back every year. I don't need anything at home, and my parents are reluctant to use it. As long as you go back, it will be the best gift."

Azhu was immediately embarrassed and pinched his arm: "You are not ashamed, I'll let you talk nonsense."

Seeing her angry look, Qiao Feng couldn't help laughing.

...

As noon approached, you could see smoke rising from a distance at the foot of the mountain. Seeing this, Qiao Feng couldn't help but speed up his pace.

"Dad, mom, Feng'er is back!"

When he saw the fence courtyard, Qiao Feng shouted loudly.

The wooden door of the room creaked open, Qiao's mother walked out quickly, wiped her hands on her apron, and smiled on her face. Then, when she saw Ah Zhu standing beside Qiao Feng, the smile on her face was even more than three points.

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

Qiao's mother quickly stepped forward, took Azhu's hand, looked left and right, and was so satisfied that she couldn't stop talking, making Azhu's face flushed with shame.

Qiao Feng scratched his head and said, "Mom, I will introduce you to me. Ah Zhu's sister is a child's... a child's..."

He said it later, he could not speak.

As a person who has experienced it, Qiao's mother immediately understood and stopped asking: "Fast come into the house and talk, what do you think you are standing outside?"

He turned around and shouted, "Dear old man, come out quickly and see who is back."

When Qiao's father came out of the backyard, he saw his son bringing a girl back, a flower appeared on his old face.

Afterwards, Qiao's father sharpened his knife and looked at the chicken and sheep, while Qiao's mother was busy cooking beside the stove, entertaining her son who had not returned home for a long time and her future daughter-in-law.

After drinking and eating, the family sat under the big tree in the yard to drink tea and cool off. Qiao Feng said solemnly: "Dad, mom, the child is going to choose auspicious day to marry Azhu and ask his parents to allow it."

Qiao's mother hurriedly said, "Oh, this is a great thing. We must agree, but we don't know where the girl's house..."

The implication is that it must be approved by the parents' family, otherwise, if there is any marriage, wouldn't it be the same as elopement?

Qiao Feng's eyes stopped Qiao's mother's words. He patted Azhu's hand and said softly: "Miss Azhu has never known who her parents are since she was a child, so there is no saying about her mother's family."

Qiao's mother was shocked and took Azhu'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, tell me that I will deal with him."

Azhu lowered her head and replied softly: "Yes."

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

After living at home for nearly a month, Qiao Feng and Azhu left their hometown and rushed to Luoyang. He was preparing to handle the affairs of the Beggars' Gang.

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

Yanmen Pass is located in the dangerous Yanmen Road thirty miles north of Daizhou.

Qiao Feng was also here in the world of heroes in the past, but he had important things at that time, and he passed by in a hurry and did not pay attention to it.

It was not too late at this moment. It was noon when he and Azhu arrived in Daizhou. They had a good meal in the city, found a room, opened a room, and left the city to head north.

When I climbed the north mountain, I saw two mountains, east and west peaks, steep and rugged, and the middle was circling and rugged. It was indeed a dangerous place.

The east and west wings, the mountains are undulating.

The Great Wall of the Ridge is winding, and it goes east to Pingxingguan, Zijingguan, falls down to Maguan, and directly to Youyan, connecting Hanhai; west to Xuangangkou, Ningwuguan, and Bietouguan to the Yellow River.

There are two gates in this pass, both east and west, all of which are stacked with huge bricks, passing by geese and passing through clouds, and they are majestic.

Qiao Feng said: "Azhu, Yan'er travels south and returns north, and it is difficult to fly over the peaks. They all pass through the two peaks. Therefore, this place is called Yanmen, and this pass is called Yanmen Pass."

Azhu smiled and said, "Oh, I didn't expect Mr. Qiao to 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, with more than 40 passes in the northern border, with Yanmen being the most powerful. Once it was dozens of miles outside the pass, it was the land of the Liao Kingdom. Therefore, there were heavy troops stationed at the pass.

Qiao Feng thought to himself that if he passes through the closing gate, he will inevitably be investigated by the officers and soldiers guarding the gate.

Now decided to take a detour from the Gaoling Mountains to the west.

The two of them came to Jueling and looked around. They saw Fanzhi and Wutai towering in the east; Ningwu, the mountains and the west belt; Zhengyang, the stone drums stood in the south; in the north, Shuozhou and Mayi.

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

After looking at the scenery for a while, the two of them walked around Jueling and came to the side. Sure enough, a large rock stood on the side and looked up at the mountain wall.

I saw that the mountain wall was naturally smooth and smooth, and in the middle were Khitan characters. However, over the years, after being blown by wind, rain and sun, the handwriting on the stone was no longer very clear.

Qiao Feng clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes showed an incredible look. Is the Khitan's life experience true?

Azhu, who was standing aside, comforted softly: "Mr. Qiao, why bother to care whether you are a Han or a Khitan? As long as you have a clear conscience, you are worthy of the heavens and the people of the world, it is enough!"

Qiao Feng hugged her and said, "The truth is this, I know it too. However, when I think of my identity and think about how many Liao soldiers have been killed over the years in order to prevent the Liao Kingdom from moving south, I feel very uncomfortable. They are my fellow tribe."

Looking at the heartbroken Qiao Feng, Azhu's mother was very arrogant and patted him on the back, saying, "There are also thieves and scum among the Han people, and there are also good people among the Khitan people. Why bother who you are? No matter what your identity is, no matter what decision you make, I, Azhu, will always be with you."

Qiao Feng was moved when he heard this and nodded firmly, "I decided to go to Tianshan Mountain. After we go back, we will go to Shaolin Temple and find Abbot Xuanci, ask him to give me an explanation, and also find Murong Bo who is hiding in the dark."

Azhu said, "Duyi, you, you Mr. Qiao will do whatever you want."

Qiao Feng whispered: "When all this is over, I will marry you, okay?"
