The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 428

Hearing Zhu Wu's question, Mu Xu shook his head and explained, "Even if he surrenders today, I'm afraid he won't accept it. Let him wait for a while. Anyway, good food is not afraid of being late. I have a lot of patience!"

Zhu Wu echoed a few words, and winked at Mu Xu from an angle that others couldn't see.

Mu Xu was puzzled at first, but after seeing Zhu Wu glance at Zou Run, he immediately realized that Zou Yuan, Zou Run's uncle, could be regarded as dead at the hands of Sun Yi.He treated Sun Yi so courteously today, maybe Zou Run would have something in his mind.

Thinking of this, Mu Xu immediately dismissed everyone, leaving only Zou Run, comforted him for his good life, and promoted him specially, and only let him go after seeing that he was not in any mood.

Although Taiyuan had been captured, Mu Xu was still busy in the next few days, busy to appease the people in the city and restore people's livelihood.On the one hand, two armies were sent, led by Hua Rong and Luan Tingyu, to attack Yangqu and Chitang Pass respectively, in order to guard the throat of the North and defend against invasion from several northern border states.

……

He didn't mention how Mu Xu attacked the city and plundered land in Hedong, but said that after Song Jiang and Chao Gai parted ways that day, Erlong Mountain had fallen into grass for more than half a year.

For such a long time, Song Jiang naturally has not been idle. In order to expand his strength, he and Wu used this tacit cooperation partner to attack frequently. Borrow food.

At the same time, Song Jiang also took advantage of his reputation in the arena to recruit or force many so-called heroes, such as Fan Rui, Xiang Chong, and Li Gun from Mangdang Mountain, Shi En from Mengzhou, Wang Daoren of Centipede Ridge, Li Erseng and so on.

Song Jiang didn't care whether these people did a lot of evil on weekdays, how good and bad they were, anyway, they just collected their brains under his command, so they finally got thirty-six leaders.

Zhang Shuye, the prefect of Qingzhou, hated what Song Jiang had done recently, and he wrote to the court several times, requesting to send troops to wipe it out.

But because of Tian Hu, Mu Xu, Fang La, and Wang Qing who turned the world upside down, the Song Dynasty court couldn't care less about Song Jiang's boil.

In addition, Su Yuanjing, the Si Taiwei in front of the palace, insisted on recruiting Song Jiang and others, which caused Song Jiang and his group to be ignored for a while, making him re-elected, and now he has collected another thirty to forty thousand people.

As a result, Song Jiang's mind inevitably became active again, and he began to find ways to seek security again.

He first took Dai Zong and a few other cronies, walked around Tokyo, and visited Su Yuanjing in private.After presenting the heavy gift, Su Yuanjing told Song Jiang,
"At the moment there are four major bandits making trouble, and the officials worry about this every day. If you write a letter at this time to ask for surrender, and then there are officials working around the court, your wish will definitely be fulfilled."

Hearing this, Song Jiang was overjoyed immediately, and repeatedly assured Su Yuanjing that after he returned to Shandong, he would immediately surrender to the court.

Song Jiangyou felt that it was not safe to get out of Yuanjing's mansion. Thinking of the legend in the world, the Zhao official family likes to visit the fireworks places such as Fanlou in private, so he also went there.

Unexpectedly, after some inquiries, Song Jiang was disappointed.It turned out that after Li Shishi and Zhao Yuannu disappeared in the old year, Zhao Guan's family was sad and also for their own safety, they had not been here for many days.

Seeing that this road was impossible, Song Jiang had no choice but to return to Erlong Mountain.In this way, in the original book, Chai Jin's hairpin is sent to the Forbidden Court, and Li Kui makes troubles in Tokyo at night.

Let's say that after Song Jiang went back, he immediately called Wu Yong to discuss with him how to recruit security, so as to avoid the recurrence of the previous internal strife.

Wu Yong is usually the best at this kind of intrigue. When Song Jiang Fang asked him, the guy rolled his eyes and gave Song Jiang an idea.

On the next day, Song Jiang summoned all the leaders to discuss major issues, first changed the Juyi Hall to the Loyalty Hall, and then said,

"Song Jiang is not talented. Since he went up the mountain, he has been loved by all his brothers and appointed me as the leader. Today, the thirty-six heroes gathered together are so outstanding. It is really rare in the past and present.

Although we are heroes who are doing justice for the heavens, but soldiers are everywhere, and they will inevitably kill living things, which makes Xiaoke feel uneasy.

After thinking about it, today Song Jiang wants to hold a big ceremony in Luotian. One is to pray for the brothers and hope that everyone will be happy and healthy.The two pay homage to the souls of the dead to atone for our sins.I don't know what the brothers think? "

All the brothers praised Shandao, "This is a good fruit and a good thing, my brother's opinion is not bad."

Wu Yong suggested, "Brothers Fan Rui and Wang Feitian are proficient in Taoism, so they can take charge of this matter."

When the two agreed, Song Jiang nodded and said, "Since this is the case, tomorrow I will send people down the mountain, invite all the high-level scholars from all over the world, and bring the sacrificial utensils to the stronghold. Then let people buy a bunch of incense candles, paper horses, and sacrifice flowers and fruits. , vegetarian food and clean food, and share the corresponding items.”

After some discussions, it was finally agreed to hold a seven-day Fa Conference.During the period, money was widely distributed to relieve victims nearby.

When the date is approaching, hang four long flags in front of the Loyalty Hall.A three-story high platform is bound on the hall, and holy statues of Qibao and Sanqing are laid in the hall.The two classes are set up with twenty-eight mansions and twelve palaces and celestial days.Outside the hall, there are still supervising generals Cui, Lu, Deng and Dou.The arrangement has been decided, and the sacrificial utensils are ready.Please come to the Taoists, including Fan Rui and Wang Daoren, there are forty-nine members.

On that day, the wind in Huihui is smooth and the sky is blue.Headed by Song Jiang and Wu Yong, Dai Zong, Qin Ming and other leaders successively twirled incense, and Fan Rui and Wang Daoren performed high-level meritorious service, and Guan issued a letter to sign the order.

In this way, three dynasties a day, until the seventh day, Song Jiang asked God to give instructions, and asked Fan Rui to deliver the request to Tianting.

It was the middle of the night, Fan Rui and Wang Daoren were on the first floor of the Xuhuang Altar, all the Taoists were on the second floor, Song Jiang and other leaders were on the third floor, and all the little leaders and the school gathered under the altar to pray to God and ask for help. Give directions.

Everyone was bowing down piously, when they suddenly heard a loud noise from the sky, and then a ball of flames fell straight into the direction of Qianmen Gate in the south.

A group of people hurriedly went to check the clues, and when they got there, they saw that the terrain was raised there, and sparks were still burning on it.

When the fire was extinguished, Song Jiang ordered people to dig up the soil. After digging only three or four feet, he saw a three-foot stone tablet standing in the center, with many strange characters densely written on it.

Song Jiang asked the Taoists about the contents of the stele, and one person replied, "The inscription on this stele is tadpole script. The Taoist ancestor uploaded a book from heaven, which is similar to this text, and may be translated."

Song Jiang was overjoyed, and quickly rewarded the Taoist priest, asking him to identify it carefully.

The Taoist stared at it for a while, then suddenly gasped, and exclaimed, "It's so, it really is all predestined by heaven!"

Everyone hurriedly asked why, the Taoist pointed to the stone tablet and said, "The front of this tablet says, "Walk for the heavens, be loyal and unparalleled. The names of thirty-six people are engraved on the back. They are undoubtedly all heroes."

As they spoke, the Taoist priests read one by one, "The leader is Tiankui star Hu Baoyi and Song Jiang, and then Tiangang star thunderbolt Qin Ming, Tianji star wise multi-star Wu Yong..."

When the Taoist finished reading it, everyone was amazed!

Song Jiang even said, "My humble official, it turns out that I should be the head of the Xingkui, and all the brothers are also the people who should be the man of destiny. We should gather together. Now we have counted enough, and the order is established. All the leaders should keep their positions." Everyone, stop arguing, and you must never go against the words of heaven."

Everyone replied, "The meaning of heaven and earth is determined by reason, who dares to violate it?"

Song Jiang immediately took the gold and silver, gave them to the Taoists, and invited them down the mountain.

Then everyone moved to the Loyalty Hall, held the same sincerity, and made a big oath:

I secretly read that Jiang and others were separated in different places in the past, but now they gather together; the stars are brothers, and the heaven and earth are parents.Thirty-six people, no one has the same face, but their faces are majestic; thirty-six people, all of them are united, with a pure heart.Joy must be joy, sorrow must be sorrow; life is not life, death must be death.Since it is listed in the sky, it will not make people laugh.The voice of the day is rich.The liver and gallbladder of life are the same.If there is a person who is unkind, cuts away righteousness, is right outside and wrong inside, and has a beginning and no end, the sky will show him above, and ghosts will be beside him; his body will be cut off with a sword, and his traces will be wiped out by thunder; he will sink into hell forever, and he will never be born again!The retribution is clear, God and Heaven will observe together!

After swearing, everyone vowed again, "I hope that we will meet each other in life and life, and we will meet each other forever, without hindrance, just like today!"
