Water Margin: Lu Bu sits on Mount Liang

Chapter 112

It was bright daylight, and most of the minions who had been tired recently had recovered after a night's rest, but this short period of time could not completely relieve their fatigue, and each of them looked a little slumped.

"ignition!"

Holding a torch, Chen Yun looked at the village that had fought for it several times, and threw the torch at the fire starter without hesitation.A group of young and strong people from the Chen family village beside them were either excited or expressionless, and threw their torches one after another.

boom--

The flames soared high, and then spread rapidly. Amidst the crackling sound, the soaring fireworks roasted the people not far away with a fiery breath.

"elder brother."

Chen Yun and a group of people from Chen Family Village came over, bowed their hands and said, "You have to be careful when you go all the way to Xiangyang. I heard that Dengzhou area is not peaceful."

Lu Bu looked up to the sky and smiled: "Someone is afraid of someone coming."

He patted Chen Yun's arm: "You and Brother Xi Sheng have the heaviest burden. It is not easy to bring nearly 400 people all the way back to Liangshan."

He glanced at Ma Ling again: "Consult with brother Xi Sheng more along the way, and bring him back safely as soon as possible."

Ma Ling patted his chest and said: "Master, don't worry, I will definitely work hard and put everything on me."

Turning to Pan Zhong again, he said: "Brother Hardworking is following, but he has to turn around at this time, and brother needs to take care of him along the way."

Pan Zhong nodded yes, and didn't say much.

Seeing this, Lu Bu didn't speak anymore, just nodded, patted his shoulder, turned around and got on the red rabbit, held the rein and looked at the crowd and said: "So, let me take a step first, and practice more soldiers after you return to the mountain. "

Ma Ling, Chen Yun, Xi Sheng, and Pan Zhong clasped their hands together and said, "Don't worry, brother, I will wait on the mountain to wait for my brother to come back."

"Hahaha, it would be better if this is the case."

Lu Bu laughed loudly, turned his horse's head and walked out, Deng Fei, Luan, Ruan Xiaoqi and others who were waiting at the side clasped their fists at them, and hurriedly followed, followed by ten minions still fighting horses with.

"I'll wait and get ready to go."

Xi Sheng watched the backs of Lu Bu and the others disappear, then turned around and walked towards the scattered team.

"Let's go, this road is indeed far away."

Ma Ling stretched, feeling a little regretful that he couldn't go to Xiangyang with him, but he also knew the priorities of the matter and didn't have any complaints.

Chen Yun and Pan Zhong smiled, and turned around with the crowd. The sun shone, and the figures of the crowd were dragged by the elders.

So far, the people in Liangshan have divided into two groups, each embarking on a new journey.

……

When the troops from Liangshan set off in Ruzhou, Ruan Xiaowu, who was far away in the water, picked up a few men and women from Xinzhou, and followed the rules of the recent navy, and brought them up the mountain. Song Wan, a newcomer, was done, but he didn't expect that this group of people insisted on seeing the person in charge. Song Wan was also kind, and immediately reported the situation to him, asking Qiao Lie and Bian Xiang to come over.

When Qiao Lie and Bian Xiang came, the group was standing in the spacious hall, many of them looked cautious, only one of them, a fat and white man, was looking around, as if he was curious about the room full of weapons.

"I heard that brothers want to find us? But I don't know how to address them?"

When the gentle voice came, Zhu Guibai's chubby face flashed a gleam of joy. Looking back, he saw a Taoist and a burly man walking into the temporary reception hall, and hurriedly bowed down to Bian Xiang: "Little man Zhu Gui, I have met Master Lu."

Bian Xiang and Qiao Lie glanced at each other, they both moved away from the direction where he bowed down and laughed, which confused Zhu Gui, and hurriedly said: "I don't know what the villain said wrong, why are you laughing so much?"

"Brother is not in the cottage. This is Bian Xiang, the leader of Liangshan." Qiao Lie chuckled, shook his sleeves and cupped his fists and said, "Qiao Lie, the poor man, met Brother Zhu Gui."

"It turns out that you are here." Zhu Gui stood up with a normal face, scratched his head and said, "Then I don't know when Lord Lu will come back?"

Bian Xiang shook his head and said in a gruff voice: "It will take some time for Zhemo, but brother Qiao Lie and I are in charge of the Shanzhai affairs now. If you have anything to do, you can talk to me."

"Brother Bian Xiang is right." Seeing that Zhu Gui's face was still a little hesitant, Qiao Lie couldn't help but said, "Brother Bian Xiang and Pindao can mostly decide what matters here, so I don't know what's important for Brother Zhu Gui?"

Zhu Gui thought for a while, and said, "Zhu Gui was originally a businessman who opened a hotel, and he came to Guizhai to shed grass because he killed someone."

Looking up, Qiao Lie and the two showed no signs of impatience, and continued: "The villain looked around the water pond before going up the mountain, and found that there was no place to inquire about the village, so the villain wanted to recommend himself. While opening a hotel, I don’t know if it’s possible to inquire about news and guide people for the Shanzhai.”

Qiao Lie and Bian Xiang looked at each other, their eyes brightened, Qiao Lie turned around and asked, "How did you think of doing this, brother?"

Zhu Gui smiled when he heard the words, and his face was very frank: "This villain is a businessman, and he doesn't want to fight with people with a knife. Although he killed someone, it was a helpless act. Or because the villain is a businessman, and doing these things is his old profession, and it won't be too conspicuous."

"Okay!" Qiao Lie nodded and said, "The two of us can agree to this matter. We will build the hotel now, and I will report this matter to my brother when he comes back."

Bian Xiang also clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Brother Qiao Lie wanted to open a store at the foot of the mountain before and collected information about the relationship, but what Brother Zhu Gui said coincided with us."

"Thank you two leaders." Zhu Gui was overjoyed when he heard the words. Qiao Lie's words gave him reassurance and saved him from the fate of going to the battlefield in the future.

Bian Xiang waved his hand: "Hahaha, from now on we will be brothers in the same family, so why thank you back and forth."

Zhu Gui didn't say much, just bowed his hands to the two of them to thank them, and kept saying in his mouth: "Courtesy cannot be discarded, etiquette cannot be discarded."

When the men and women who followed Zhu Gui came here saw each other, their tense strings relaxed, and smiles appeared on their faces.

At that moment, Qiao Lie called Fei Zhen and Xue Can to study the map, and asked them to organize a manpower to build a hotel at the entrance of Lijia Road, so that Zhu Gui could do business here.

The two of them had nothing to say, and hurriedly led their men down the mountain to build a shop without mentioning it.

Qiao Lie and Bian Xiang enthusiastically dragged Zhu Gui to the side to have a drink and talk in detail. By the way, they called Ruan Xiaoer, the backbone of the naval army, to discuss together. The three of them decided on how to cooperate with each other at the wine table .

On that day, Bian Xiang called the leader of the mountain over in the name of opening a new store, and they drank together until midnight, and they all became familiar with Zhu Gui, so that this man who looked calm on the outside but was actually a little hesitant in his heart would stop. Quiet.

This Liangshan seems to be a little different from the other cottages uploaded by Jianghu, but it is not bad!

……

The light of the sky hangs down from the clouds, sometimes it is covered by the blowing clouds, and sometimes it reappears a radiant light, showing its own existence.

Shibei Village is still as quiet as usual. Occasionally, watchdogs run by wagging their tails on the roads of the village, and then children chase after them with laughter. Some villagers are tending the few fields outside, and some are weaving in the yard Bamboo baskets and bamboo cages, three or five women made an appointment, carrying dirty clothes in a basin, and pounding clothes and pestles, talking and laughing towards the stream.

With a bow and arrow on his back, Niu Gao walked into the village with the pheasants and hares he had just hunted, and let the little man running past madly walk into the house with a smile on his face.

"Sir, I'm back."

Niu Gao pushed open the courtyard and shouted, and then the door of the main house opened, Mrs. Niu came out and said: "I'm back, I packed a lot of things."

"Where's Tong'er?" Niu Gao looked behind his wife, but didn't see the naughty monkey boy.

"Going out crazy, I told him to come back in the evening." After taking the prey from Niu Gao, Mrs. Niu went to the back kitchen: "You go into the house to see your mother, I don't know if you are asleep now. Today's complexion It’s improved a lot, but my body is still a little weak.”

"Hey."

Niu Gao responded, watched his wife start to boil water, scratched his head, turned around and brought some firewood to put away, then cleaned his hands and walked into the house.

Different from the previous few days, there was a smell of medicine in the main house at this time, Niu Gao walked lightly to the bed, but saw that his mother had already fallen asleep, raised his hand to pull up the quilt, and then sat down. After getting down, seeing that my old lady was sleeping soundly and didn't seem to wake up for a short time, she couldn't help but got up again and walked out gently to the back kitchen.

"How did you come out?"

"Mother fell asleep and won't wake up for a while, I'm here to help."

"Oh, then you get this pheasant."

The couple were talking in a low voice, Niu Gao didn't idle his hands, seeing the water boiling, he plucked the hair of the pheasant with the hot water, and then skinned the rabbit, while listening to his wife chattering about the neighbors. Regardless of the length of the family, they echoed from time to time, and the two got along harmoniously.

"Boy Niu, is Boy Niu at home?"

There was an anxious cry from outside the house, upon hearing this, Niu Gao put down the kitchen knife in his hand and said to Mrs. Niu: "I'll go out and have a look."

As he spoke, he picked up a cloth and wiped his hands and walked out. Seeing a middle-aged man standing outside the fence eagerly, he couldn't help walking towards the door: "Third Uncle is here, come in quickly."

"Oh! What are you doing here!" The third uncle shook his hands anxiously: "Quick, pack up and go."

"No. Third Uncle, what's the matter? Why do you tell me to go?" Second Monk Niu Gaozhang looked at each other strangely, puzzled.

"It's too late." The third uncle looked anxious, grabbed the fence and leaned towards Niu Gao, and said, "Just now, brother Que asked someone close to me to tell me that the state said that you ganged up with the bandits and killed the commander of the Xiangbingdu. You have issued the arrest document, and now the head of the arrest department is leading people to arrest you, saying that if you are caught, you will be executed in autumn, and you should leave quickly."

"Ah? Well, when will I..." Niu Gao was taken aback, and just about to say something, he suddenly remembered what happened on the way to the city to grab medicine two days ago, and he cried out inwardly, but it wasn't his fault.

"Third Uncle, is what you said true?" Mrs. Niu who heard the voice from inside came out, the water stains on her hands were dripping onto the ground before she had time to wipe them off.

"Why am I entertaining you two on this matter, hurry up, it's too late." The third uncle looked impatient, and frequently turned his head to look at the entrance of the village, for fear of seeing the sergeant who came to arrest him.

Niu Gao twisted his neck and said with wide eyes, "I won't leave, and I didn't kill anyone. It was two thieves who killed him, and I just had a few words with them."

"Confused." The third uncle stomped anxiously: "The one who died was a high-ranking official. How could the government listen to you? It's not you, it's you."

Niu Gao panicked when he heard that, Mrs. Niu also said: "Third Uncle is right, my beloved should leave quickly."

"I'm leaving, what about you, mother and Tong'er?" Niu Gao frowned.

Mrs. Niu was also stubborn, took the bow and arrow and threw it over, then ran into the house and took something wrapped in black cloth and handed it to Niu Gao, "You don't have to worry about the house, it's under the care of the servant, you go out first to avoid the limelight." Just come and pick me up after that.”

The third uncle also said aside: "The people in the village are not dead, and they can still do it to help your family."

Niu Gao reached out to take it, and nodded fiercely: "Zhong, you said, it's hard work for a beloved man to manage the house."

He bowed to the third uncle again and said, "The family is counting on the third uncle."

The third uncle nodded: "I'll take care of it, don't worry about it, just go quickly."

Niu Gao didn't dare to wait any longer, so he quickly opened the door and walked out, rushing towards the back of the village.

"Third Uncle, is there something wrong with him?"

Whether they are husband and wife, although Mrs. Niu said it neatly just now, she is still worried about it.

The third uncle also knew it in his heart, but said in his mouth: "Relax, you don't know what Niu Boy is capable of? It's a dream to catch him in the mountains."

Madam Niu breathed a sigh of relief, put her palms together in front of her chest, and prayed secretly towards the sky.

Not long after, a team of soldiers from the arrest department entered Shibei Village, and immediately asked where Niu's house was. It's asking three questions.

The leader, Dutou, was not an idiot either, seeing the people in Shibei Village looking at them warily, he just claimed that he didn't know anything, why didn't he know that this group of people was covering up Niu Gao?It's just helpless, they can't do much if this person is not guilty, so they had to collect some live chickens and ducks to take with them, so the trip was not in vain.

Don't mention the matter of Shibei Village, just say that Niu Gao ran out of the village all the way into the forest, turned left and right and ran for a long way, worrying about where he was going, while secretly cursing the two thieves for their harm. Shallow, now my old cow who is flashing has a home and can't go back.

The more Niu Gao thought about it, the angrier he became, and he couldn't help cursing: "I have two sons of evil sons who have brought me here, if I find them, I will..."

His footsteps stopped abruptly, he stood there thinking for a while, and then murmured: "That's right, Jingdong Shuibo Liangshan... I found you."

The black and strong man was furious and started on the road again.

……

Hebei, Weisheng Army, Qinyuan County.

With a jar of wine in his hand and a pack of sauced meat in his other hand, Chi Fang excitedly crossed the streets and alleys, and came to a dilapidated house and knocked on the gate.

creak-

The door opened with a burst of noise, revealing a square face of a man, with big eyes and high nose bridge, sallow complexion, and a short beard around his chin, which looked very black and hard
"Brother Chi, what kind of wind brought you here, please come in quickly."

"I just shipped the cargo to the Daming Mansion. I have some free time. I thought of coming to your place."

Chi Fang walked in with a smile, and found a place to sit without looking outside. The furniture in this man's room was simple, and it could be seen that his family background was not very good, but he kept it clean, so it didn't look that bad.

"The Daming Mansion is not close to here, but I don't believe you, a water monkey, stopped by to see me." The man took two bowls, sat down on the opposite side of the pool, and didn't see anyone else. He sifted the wine himself and grabbed it from his bag. Just eat a piece of meat.

"That's right." Chi Fang was not ashamed, he came here on purpose to find him, he had nothing to say, he leaned closer and said, "Brother Shan, I remember you often said that you should find a place with water to shed grass. Is it a joke or is it serious?"

The man looked up at him, grabbed the fast meat and chewed it in his mouth: "How is this fake? You saw me here too. Besides this head, I, Shan Jinglong, have something else."

Chi Fang laughed: "Since you said so, there is a place to go here, little brother."

"Oh?" Shan Jinglong's eyes lit up: "Where?"

"Come with ears."

Chi Fang put down the wine bowl, and seeing Shan Jinglong's head approaching, he couldn't help leaning forward.

There was a faint sound of wine and meat floating in the room, and some people were whispering, but they dared not speak openly.

　The daughter of the Shu family is coming out, (⊙o⊙)... It is very tiring to take care of pregnant women, and I will probably be drained next time-_-||
