It was Iron Foot who was sitting in that carriage.
Just now when the carriage drove into a small path, the coachman said, "Master, I think those enemies we met just now will surely find it strange that we have taken this small path and will come after us. Why don't we let Tang Lao Si hide in the carriage too? When those enemies come to ask, let Tang Lao Si poke his head out to confuse them. What do you think of this idea, Master?"
Iron Foot said, "Very well, do as you say." The coachman named Zhang San then let Tang Lao Si get into the carriage.
Sure enough, in less than a moment, the Five Heroes of Chuan Nan caught up and stopped them, shouting questions.
Tang Lao Si casually mumbled a few words according to the plan they had just made. And the Five Heroes of Chuan Nan actually let them go.
Zhang San whipped the horse and drove the carriage at a gallop. When they were almost at a grove, the carriage made a turn and drove into it. It didn't stop until it reached the deep part of the thick forest.
Iron Foot was startled and asked, "Why did we stop?"
Zhang San said, "Master, according to my speculation, those enemies will surely come back to chase after us soon."
Iron Foot asked, "How can you tell?"
Zhang San smiled and said, "All of us brothers have a Shandong accent, which can be easily recognized by anyone with a discerning eye. People in the south ride horses while people in the north ride in carriages. And this is Zhejiang. There are very few outsiders here. Once your enemies come to their senses, they will surely follow this small path to the south to chase after us. In another half an hour, we'll go out and turn onto the main road. They'll never expect that we'll go straight along the main road. Let's do the opposite. What do you think?"
Iron Foot thought to himself: I never expected that this ordinary-looking coachman could be so clever. If he weren't seriously injured, Iron Foot couldn't help but clap his hands in praise. At the moment, he could only weakly respond with a grunt.
Half an hour later, Zhang San slowly drove the carriage out of the thick forest. They went back along the small path for a few miles and then turned onto the main road. Sure enough, they didn't encounter the Five Heroes of Chuan Nan again. Immediately, he whipped the horse and drove the carriage at a gallop towards Tiyun Valley in Yandang Mountain.
Yandang Mountain is located in Leqing County and Pingyang County, Zhejiang Province. It is known as the First Mountain in the Southeast, famous for its magnificent peaks, grotesque rocks, mysterious caves and spectacular waterfalls. The grotesque peaks and rocks in Yandang Mountain compete with each other in beauty, and the night scene of Lingfeng is full of wonderful charm. Tiyun Valley is located to the south of Xishiliang Cave in Yandang Mountain, covering an area of several mu. The Moving Mountain Sect lives here in groups.
Zhang San and Tang Lao Si took turns driving the horse all the way and arrived at Tiyun Valley at the hour of Shen in the afternoon.
There were dozens of disciples of the Moving Mountain Sect guarding the entrance of the valley. When they saw the carriage approaching, they shouted, "Who are you? Stop the carriage!"
Zhang San stepped forward, clasped his fists and said with a smile, "Gentlemen, there is an old fellow who asked our brothers to send him here."
The man who was the leader was tall and big, looking about twenty-four or twenty-five years old. He walked forward, lifted the curtain of the carriage and, seeing the scene inside the carriage, couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.
