Water Margin: Lu Bu sits on Mount Liang

Chapter 313 The situation gradually becomes clear
On the deck of the ship, the Tong brothers were a little impatient. Did Liangshan come here to grab business?

Ahead, Li Fuchang's loud and old voice sounded: "Master Lu, what does this mean? Private salt? What about private salt?"

Lu Bu looked at the old man in front of him. The blank expression in his eyes did not seem to be fake, and he frowned: "Master Li, you really don't know?"

"But my useless nephew is doing something for personal gain?" Li Fu said calmly, feeling a little angry in his heart. Could it be that the people from Liangshan wanted to take advantage of his nephew's unconsciousness to rob him?

Lu Bu pondered for a moment and said, "Please come over, Butler Chai." He ordered, and Teng Xu clasped his fists and rushed to the cabin. When Yu Cheng stepped forward to pour the wine, the tall figure spoke again: "The main reason this time is for The destruction of the Chai family's private salt team in Jiangzhou..."

The young guard stepped back with the wine bottle. Lu Bu held the mouth of the glass and looked at the opposite side thoughtfully: "Let's wait and let the master of suffering speak. I won't chew the tongue." He picked up the wine glass. :"please."

Li Fu frowned, and the wrinkles on his forehead seemed to be able to trap a mosquito. He looked at the opposite person and raised his glass to drink, but he didn't refuse. He raised his hand to drink, and when he put the glass on the table, he looked back at Tongjia. Brothers.

When the two brothers saw the old man, they knew what he meant. They shook their heads in unison. Li Fu nodded his head lightly, turned around and looked at the person who came to pour the wine. For a moment, he didn't know what to say, so he just sat there. Waiting quietly for the rightful master to come out.

After three glasses of wine, Chai Fu, dressed in clean clothes, walked out. He first raised his hands to Lu Bu and said, "I've met Master Lu Bu. I wonder why you asked this villain to come?" while looking at that person with the corner of his eye. The three people beside them were slightly curious.

"Butler Chai, this old man is the Li Fu that Xie is looking for." He gestured towards the opposite side. Chai Fu looked at the old man's face with anger, and hurriedly clasped his fists: "Master Lu, how can Xie let this old thief sit here? I hope you can help me for your husband's sake."

"I have never been aggressive in my life, I only like to resolve fights." There was a look of nostalgia in his eyes, and he smiled with unknown meaning. Lu Bu's deep voice rang in the ears of the two of them: "You'd better talk to Mr. Li about the matter again. Let’s go over it and talk about it, maybe we can make some other discoveries.”

"Yes..." Chai Fu answered with his hands raised, but his chest was heaving up and down, and there was a look of dissatisfaction on his face, but he did not dare to refute Lu Bu's face, so he had to tell the matter again.

"Where is that man now?" Li Fu waited for him to finish speaking and immediately asked.

Chai Fu tossed his sleeves and said angrily: "How can you live without your arms, legs and feet? You have already died and went to see the Sanqing Taoist. He only kept saying that he robbed my house before he died."

Li Fu frowned, intending to refute, but closed his mouth and looked at the Tong brothers behind him. Tong Wei frowned, bent down and whispered: "Boss Li, you know Brother Jun's bad temper. He We have established rules long ago: no torture, no killing, no sexual humiliation, so it is definitely not us."

"Hello, they definitely didn't do this." The old Naohai Longju raised his eyebrows.

Chai Fu's face suddenly darkened: "Fart! I'm here, who would recognize it?"

"You are looking down on people. If my two brothers led others to do it, how dare you deny it?" Tong Meng patted his chest with a solemn look on his face: "Boss Li also knows best how we act."

When Li Fu nodded, Tong Wei on the side also yelled: "It's very, very very, if we did it, how could we possibly cut it into human sticks and send them out? They would have been hacked to death long ago. How could there be any room for you to ask questions?" , wouldn’t it cause more trouble?”

Chai Fu was startled for a moment, and his face turned pale. He lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and said: "Who did that? You are waiting here to talk, and you are all Who else would do this besides you?"

Lu Bu held the wine glass and said nothing. He looked at the people with interest. Li Fu opposite him slowly raised the wine to his lips and took a sip.

Behind them, the Tong brothers looked at each other, and Tong Meng touched his chin: "Damn it, when he asked me this, I actually felt that we were the most likely to do this."

Tong Wei's lips moved and he spoke after a while: "We are right here, and we are doing private salt business. There are people who are just making trouble. It is very possible that someone else is stirring up trouble... …?”

The voice became softer and softer, and the last word came up sharply. He looked at his brother and said at the same time: "Zhang Kui!"

"Who is that?" Chai Fu looked at a few people in astonishment.

"A wild and rebellious person." Li Fu put down his wine glass in front of him, snorted coldly, turned his head away, and became angry. Tong Wei continued: "This man established a stronghold in Xiaogushan, and he has hundreds of people under his command. Now the forces that have colluded with Manichaeism are causing trouble in our Jiangzhou."

"Xiaogushan?" Chai Fu was stunned, but he was somewhat convinced: "My Chai family's caravan was robbed in Xiaogushan, so it is really possible that it is this person."

"It can't be wrong, it's him." Tong Wei said angrily: "Damn it, this guy really doesn't follow the rules. Boss Li has long made a rule not to rob the caravan, but this person actually It’s out of earshot.”

Tong Meng sneered: "He can do any despicable thing like colluding with outsiders, but there is nothing he can't do."

Chai Fu took a breath, looked at Lu Bu who was sitting aside and drinking alone, and stepped forward to bow deeply: "I hope Master Lu will seek justice for my high-ranking officials."

"As it should be, you don't have to be like this." Lu Bu stretched out his hand to give him some support. Chai Fu stood up and took a deep breath: "Fortunately, this didn't cause any loss to your family, otherwise this villain would have been in trouble all his life. "

"The steward is too polite, but I should thank Mr. Li for being merciful and sparing a certain two incompetent brothers." Lu Bu smiled at the steward of the Chai family over there, and then looked at Li Fu who was sitting beside him and nodded.

This Naohai Longju is also a person who has been in the world for a long time. At this time, the opposite person is holding a ladder. He also knows the principle of carrying a sedan chair. He strokes his beard and says: "Master Lu, you are humble. I just soaked in the water too much." Years and months, given time, your noble family can surpass me with little effort, but I would like to thank the leader of the village for showing mercy."

"Haha, I will be satisfied if I can be half as capable as my father-in-law." The others smiled and waved to Yu Chengyi: "Bring another cup to Butler Chai." He stood up and looked at the others and said, "I want you to come. When you have something to talk about and someone is too drunk, leave first."

He cupped his hands towards Li Fugong and said, "I am very happy to see my father-in-law's majestic appearance today. Can I allow you to pay me a visit later?"

Li Fu stood up, clasped his fists and said, "I will sweep the bed and wait for you."

Lu Bu nodded, without looking at the complicated expression on Chai Fu's face, and then walked towards the cabin. The Teng brothers quickly followed behind, and Guiying ordered the archers of the infantry to withdraw, leaving only Yu Cheng with him. Everyone in the navy was on the deck, watching Chai and Li chatting.

……

The cabin was a little dark, and the hull swayed slightly with the waves of the river. The moment the tall figure walked in, the light was even darker, and then the light and shadow quickly switched with the sound of footsteps.

"How are Xiaowu and Xiaoqi?"

"I've woken up. I just drank more water. Don't worry, brother." Li Zhu was already waiting in the cabin. When he heard the question, he said with relief: "Brother, have you finished talking to him?" Lu Bu nodded and left. He sat down at the front seat, pointed to the seat and motioned for Li Assistant to sit down, and said, "Let's make peace with him, and let the two families negotiate the rest."

Teng Kan blinked at the side: "Brother, just kill them all if you ask me. Why bother to give that old man a good face?"

"Huh?" Lu Bu glanced at the second son of the Teng family and smiled: "Although what you did is pleasant, it is not advisable."

Li Zhu also smiled, looked at Teng Kan and said, "You idiot, aren't you acting as a thug for the Chai family by doing that?"

"Isn't this trip south just to stand up for the Chai family?" Teng Kan muttered, which made Teng Yan cover his face and become speechless.

"Coming forward and being a thug are two different things." Li Zhu narrowed his eyes, glanced at Lu Bu, and continued: "Brother went south this time because the village owes a favor. All he needs to do is find the right owner. If he does it indiscriminately, no one else will know. He will say that my brother is repaying his kindness, but he will say that we listen to the Chai family, and it will be difficult to take off this hat by then."

"It turns out that..."

Teng Kan nodded thoughtfully, and Lu Bu waved his hand: "Okay, let's not talk about this. Since we already know who Zhang Kui did it, let's go and prepare. It just so happened that Li Fu was also with the other party. If there is a festival, we can also join forces with others. It happens that we are not familiar with the place, and there are these local snakes, so we can get familiar with it."

"Brother is right." Li Zhu nodded and watched the tall figure over there stand up and walk to his room. Over there, Hu Sanniang was still waiting in the room. They could go ashore soon and they could go together.

The spring breeze blew and the waves rippled. An hour later, Li Fu took the Tong brothers and Lu Bu and others to say goodbye. The huge fishing boat team began to leave as the three people turned around.

……

At the foot of Xiaogu Mountain, horses' hooves trampled across the grass, and the dust they stirred up was deflected by the wind. A little later, hundreds of people wearing white clothes were running behind the three people in a chaotic manner, with chaotic footsteps on the ground. There was a roar in the field.

The weapons hung downwards, swaying with the ups and downs of the horses.

"Is this the end of the land?" The thin man with a dark face raised his head and looked at the mountains and forests in the distance.

It is still a good time for an outing. The wind is light and the clouds are clear, the mountains are full of flowers, the woods are lush and green, and it is very pleasing to the eye. However, there are only a few people carrying guns and knives. It doesn’t look like they are here anyway. People who appreciate the scenery.

The burly square-faced man next to him heard this and said: "Bao Dao Yi, the magic stick, said that his master and apprentice are enough. If it takes a long time, he still has to ask for help from me."

"Come on, everyone makes mistakes sometimes. We are all brothers in the church, so we should help each other." A little later, a man with a white face and a short beard comforted the two.

"You have a good heart. Do you think you appreciate it after helping the master and apprentice who is a mother-in-law?" The dark-faced man looked a little unhappy: "The two of them have been bragging about their martial arts skills in the church all day long. How can they be so extravagant? Yes, they step on this, look down on that, and look sanctimonious when they leave the house, bah - I get angry just looking at them."

The man named Gou Zheng was speechless.

The square-faced man was also uninterested and just said: "That guy, Bao Dao Yi, is not as straightforward as his apprentice. At least he writes his thoughts on his face... How can there be such a thing as a mother-in-law who only likes naughty wives?" Birdman, just leave quickly after you finish helping, I also see how uncomfortable the master and the disciple are."

After hearing this, the honest man couldn't help but shake his head: "But what you and I say doesn't count. We should wait for Mr. Saburo's order to act."

The other two people were speechless for a while, and finally they had no choice but to turn around and yell: "Hurry up, we'll be there soon!"

Farther away, a fat man was riding on a horse, followed by two horses carrying men in dark clothes. Surrounded by hundreds of people, they hurried toward the distant mountains and forests.

……

Under the same sky, Jinju in the northwest.

In the lush green mountain forest, the ground shook quietly. Someone in dirty clothes jumped down from the tree and ran towards the depths of the mountain forest with a knife.

On the mountain stronghold standing in the distance, a guard watched him quickly open the door of the stronghold, and saw this man running all the way into the Juyi Hall.

"The village master, the village master!"

Amidst the shouting, a rugged man who was kicking on a chair with one foot and holding a golden Buddha in one hand was admiring it with a smile and squinting his eyes. When he heard the movement and turned around, the man who ran in fell to his knees on the ground with a pop and gasped twice. Tone: "Report to the leader of the village, at the foot of the mountain... there are hundreds of people coming from the foot of the mountain, all armed with weapons. It seems that the people who come are evil."

"What do you mean?" The rough man carefully put down the golden Buddha, took two steps forward and grabbed the messenger who had brought the news, and asked with his rotten teeth bared, "But the officers and soldiers are here?"

When the guy was pulled closer, he could smell the unspeakable smell from his village master's mouth, but he still replied with a normal expression: "No, it's not the clothes of the official army, nor the flag of the official army."

The rugged man relaxed, put down the minion, and snorted: "You dare to be a comrade from nowhere who comes to ask for food from the wild fire, but can you tell whose banner it is?"

The guy quietly took two steps back, exhaled, and shook his head: "This... villain doesn't know. He only recognizes the character for mountain and the character for five, but not the other character."

"Shan? Wu?" He picked his scalp with his fingers, and the man looked confused: "Where did this come from?" He reached out and slapped the table, and the golden Buddha shook with a loud bang. He quickly held it down with his hand and said: "Straight bitch, you dare to attack any kind of bird these days. If you send an order to everyone to steal the guy, I will skin them!"

The gangster nodded quickly, and then ran out to deliver the order. Not long after, the bandits with evil faces picked up their swords and guns and formed a scattered team. The rough-faced village leader was riding a bad horse, wearing linen clothes, and his hair was He wore a red scarf and ran in front of everyone with a spear in one hand.

Then with a wave of his spear, the gate of the village slowly opened with a creaking sound, and a group of bandits followed the village owner down the mountain, shouting.

　sleepy……
