Water Margin: Lu Bu sits on Mount Liang

Earlier.

On the way to Fengyun Village.

Su Daguanren and his wife, together with their two sons, discussed the decision outside, and then hurried on their way in the dark. Along the way, the father and son looked solemn, and Mrs. Su looked sad.

The old couple knows what kind of temper their girl has, and so do the younger brothers. To say she has a hot temper is putting it mildly, but she is a willful and stubborn donkey. Even if she is injured by an arrow during the day, her parents and brothers will not care. I think she will hide and be raised, and most likely she will continue to wait for an opportunity outside her enemy's house with her wounds.

"How can I say that when I see my second sister later..." Su Yi turned to look at his brother while riding a horse: "Also, what if we can't find her? Will she..."

Next to him, Su Liang, who was riding alongside the horse, also had a sad look on his face. He scratched his scalp and made a rustling sound, letting the horse run forward. Hearing the whistling wind in his ears, he felt anxious in his heart. At a certain moment, , punched his thigh angrily, looked at his brother and said, "Don't talk about this now, we'll talk about it when we get to the ground."

Su Yi was silent for a moment.

In the distance, there were strange noises in the dark night. It was unclear whether they were branches blowing in the wind or animals moving in the night. The occasional sound of late-night snacks frightened the two elders of the Su family who were used to being wealthy in the car.

After running like this for an unknown amount of time, they saw several orange lights shining in the night ahead. The two brothers looked at each other and called softly: "Dad, there's something wrong."

"Huh?" Su Dahu suddenly stuck out his head, pushed aside the banker who was driving, looked at it intently, and suddenly had a strange look on his face: "Is that Fengyun Villa over there?"

"Yes, Dad, this is where Fengyun Village is."

"Could it be the second sister who set the fire?"

The two brothers spoke one sentence at a time. Su Daguan narrowed his swollen eyes and shook his head for a while: "No, no, it can't be Jin Niang's handiwork. She is only one person, and she can't ignite such a fire."

He patted the shaft of the car with his hand and said: "Your father and I also experienced fires when we were young. It was also at night. This kind of light was definitely not a fire in one place. It was not like they were unable to control the fire in a short time in a city that was short of water. Fengyun Village Something must have happened."

"I gonna go see."

Su Yi looked excited and was about to step forward as soon as he picked up the reins of the horse. Su Liang quickly called him from behind: "Sanlang, wait a moment."

The horse ran two steps and was pulled back again. Su Yi looked back at his brother in confusion.

"You are here to protect your parents. I'll go take a look." Su Liang picked up the spear and urged the horse to take two steps: "You are much better at martial arts than me. Please take good care of your parents here. Don't let anything happen to your parents." .”

"Oh!" Su Yi nodded when he heard this: "Brother, be more careful."

Su Liang nodded, then looked back at Su Dahu: "Dad..."

"Don't worry, go ahead. Your mother and I are waiting here." Su Daguan thought for a moment and was afraid that the third son would lose his temper and be in danger if he went there. However, he was also worried about the eldest son and said, "Don't show off. If there’s a problem, run away.”

"I know, kid." Su Liang nodded heavily, then shook the reins and knocked the horse's belly with his leg: "Drive——"

The horse's hooves trampled on the road in the dark night, and the outline of Zhuangzi became clearer and clearer in his sight. Su Liang quickly slowed down the horse, looked around, tied the horse to a tree, and hunched over to sneak there. He kept looking around along the way, even though he prided himself on having a calm mind. Now he could smell the smell of blood in his nose and saw the flames of several houses burning into the sky, and he couldn't help but feel frightened.

He was also very courageous. Seeing that the people around him were not paying attention, he jumped into the shadows, looked around, and ran to the side. Taking advantage of the fact that it was the summer season and the vegetation was lush, he burrowed into a short tree. Behind the bush, he reached out and gently opened a gap to look outside.

But I saw groups of men armed with weapons walking by, escorting dejected people, and the cries of women and children could be heard in the distance, which sounded heartbreaking. From time to time, people walked by carrying sacks and wooden boxes, obviously plundered trophies.

"Hurry up, don't be lazy. In the past, I always said that I would go down the mountain to rob. Today, I just followed your wishes and lazy again. Damn you, you really thought that I wouldn't dare to beat you."

Amidst the laughter and curses, a young man with a square face came over carrying an iron gun. He saw someone squatting on the side and kicked him. The person who was kicked was not annoyed. He smiled and hurriedly left with his things.

The eyes of the eldest son of the host in the dark lit up, secretly thinking that Fengyun Village had been broken into by thieves?

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the sound of heavy footsteps. Su Liang peeked over there, but a burly figure ran over, shouting: "Brother Ou Peng, it turns out you are here, my brother is looking for you." "

"It's brother Yu Cheng." Seeing the man carrying the iron gun, Su Liang turned his head and waved his hand, and asked, "What does unknown brother want from me?"

Su Liang could clearly see that the burly figure under the firelight had a childish face. He heard the relaxed tone coming from the other side: "That Su Jinniang took the initiative to join the gang, saying she wanted to attack my brother." I would like to donate a batch of grain and grass and hope that we can take people to Sujiazhuang. My brother will ask you and Zhang Heng to take people there."

"Oh?" Ou Peng smiled: "It's so good, I'll call you..."

Second sister?

Su Liang's eyes widened immediately and he couldn't help but take a step forward.

Several dead branches could not bear the heavy pressure and were trampled to pieces in an instant.

The two people talking over there suddenly turned their heads: "Who is that?! Come out!"

Su Liang was so shocked that he was suddenly sweating. However, thinking about what he just heard, he gritted his teeth secretly and felt that he had a chance to survive. He was just worried that the other party was a gangster. He didn't know if what he said was true. But after thinking about it again, he It's like you don't know you are here.

A layer of oily sweat broke out on his forehead as he thought about it. The two people on the other side looked at each other. One held the iron gun and the other drew out the long sword: "If you don't come out, don't blame me for being rude."

Damn it, take a gamble!

Amidst the crashing sound, Su Liang stood up suddenly and walked out from behind the bushes: "I heard what you two said, Su Jinniang has joined the gang? I am her brother."

The two people over there were stunned for a moment, and they all looked at the young man in front of them. Under the light of the torch, the man's clothes were torn in many places and stained with blood. It was obvious that he had gone through a fierce battle. His face was dirty, and the hair on his forehead was wet. He pressed his forehead hesitantly, and a few branches and leaves of the bushes stood up and stuck in his hair, looking embarrassed.

"You said he's Su Jinniang's brother?" Yu Cheng raised his eyebrows and looked him up and down with his eyes.

Su Liang was helpless: "I am growing up at home, she is my second sister, and I have one or three brothers below me."

"Brother Yu Cheng, do you think this person is..." Ou Peng held the gun and moved two steps to the side: "Spy?"

Yu Cheng shook his head, with a look of embarrassment on his face. He thought for a moment and said, "Find two people to watch him. We'll know if he comes with me to see the real master." Su Liang didn't have any objection. At that moment, Ou Peng called Two minions came, and they first took Su Liang's long sword for self-defense, and then each of them pressed the eldest son of Su Liang with a sword from behind and followed Yu Cheng to the Yun family compound.

The guard leader asked a few people to stay outside first, and then walked in. Not long after, he heard a familiar voice inside say, "What do you mean?", and then his hot-tempered girl ran out in a hurry.

"Brother, are you really embarrassed?"

In the voice of joy, the person was already approaching. Su Liang looked at his sister and saw that she was hanging by one arm. Her body was mixed with the smell of rust and sweat. He knew that she had suffered a lot. He didn't know for a moment. What to say, thousands of words finally turned into one sentence: "Thank you for your hard work, second sister."

"It's not that hard." Su Jinniang Danfeng's eyes curled up in a smile, and she said like a barrage of shots: "I have already killed Feng Hui, and my brother also captured Fengyun Village and killed the man named Yun. At this time The people who snooped on my land are all dead, so dad can breathe a sigh of relief, but I’m sorry for my little sister’s unfilial piety, but I can’t let you down like usual.”

After a moment of sadness, he looked at his embarrassed brother and asked in confusion: "Why did the eldest brother come here? And why did he become like this? But he had a conflict with the people below?"

Su Liang smiled bitterly. He wanted to interrupt just now but couldn't. At this time, Fang said: "A lot of things happened at home."

Immediately, he recounted what happened that night, and finally sighed: "If it weren't for your good luck today, and the third brother bravely fought his way out, you might have gone to the prison to find us."

Su Jinniang was immediately furious: "Why is the government so dark? They want to ransack the house without any explanation."

He grabbed Zhu Liang's sleeve and said, "Brother, come with me. Brother is in the house. Tell him that my sister originally wanted to donate a batch of grain, grass and money to the village. I'm afraid something went wrong now."

Su Liang said quickly: "Wait a moment, father, mother and third brother are all waiting."

"Then get them quickly." Su Jinniang paused and said, "No matter how I meet my brother first, I may have to take shelter from others in the future."

Su felt a little unhappy in his conscience. He thought to himself that although a phoenix that sheds its feathers is not as good as a chicken, a skinny camel is still bigger than a horse. Even if I want to fall into the grass, with the original appearance of my home, I can't just find a small village to enter, it has to be a big village.

He quickly grabbed his younger sister and said, "Wait a minute, the second sister is always older than the older brother. Whose older brother is she looking for?"

The peach blossom girl was startled: "Didn't I say that just now?"

Su Liang shook his head: "No."

"Oh, it's brother Lu Bu from Liangshan." Su Jinniang said with some joy: "I heard from Sister Sanniang that he was going to Jiangzhou for business. On the way back, he met a group of heroes from Huangmen Mountain who were like each other. At this time, he was about to go back north. Shan, he came to Fengyun Village to borrow food because he was short of food."

Su Liang's pupils shrank, his heart beat a few times, and then he quickly walked past his sister and said, "That can't be disrespectful." He looked back at the peach blossom girl who was still standing there: "What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you give me anything?" Recommend it to my brother?"

Su Jinniang rolled her eyes at her brother: "I was about to go in just now, but you had to stop me."

Immediately, the two brothers and sisters walked into the hall. Su Liang took a look and saw a young man with a very majestic figure and handsome appearance sitting at the top. He also saw the burly young man who had brought him here standing beside him and behind him. Knowing that this was the real master, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed down: "The man in distress, Su Liang, has met brother Lu Bu. I am truly lucky to see Xie's true face here. I am willing to throw myself into the village to fight for my brother through life and death, leading horses and riding horses." After a pause, he added: "I would also like to thank my brother for taking in my second sister. She has a bad temper, is unreasonable, and is spoiled. If she offends her in any way, please forgive her."

Su Jinniang listened to him with a smile, but after hearing the second half of the sentence, she suddenly fell down and glared at her brother, but at this time, Su Liang's head was pointed at her and she didn't see him.

Lu Bu looked at the person in front of him and smiled: "Brothers from the Su family, please get up. Sister Jinniang is very straightforward. I like her very much. How can I offend her?"

He didn't mean anything else at all, but Su Jinniang's face turned red when she heard it. Su Liang stood up and said, "My parents and third brother are still waiting outside. Please send someone to pick him up." Come."

"Yu Cheng, go and invite Ren Haosheng here."

Naturally, Lu Bu would not refuse, but he was just wondering why the whole family came here. He looked at his embarrassed figure and felt thoughtful in his heart.

The peach blossom girl opposite seemed to have returned to normal, and she took a step forward and said, "Brother, there are twists and turns in what little sister said before about donating food and grass. I am afraid she will disappoint my brother."

Lu Bu looked at Su Liang again and saw that he was tired and a bit depressed, so he said, "But something happened at home?"

"The government sent people to ransack the house." Su Liang said bitterly: "My younger brother and others fought hard to escape with their parents. At this time, my house has been taken over, so the second sister may have to break her promise."

"Searching the house? How many people were taken away?"

"I don't know how many there are. We broke out from the back door, and the number of people we saw must be one or two hundred." Su Liang shook his head: "Just looking at the size of the torches he waited for, there were more people in front than behind."

Gently tapping the armrest of the chair, Lu Bu narrowed his eyes: "Will he raid the house and return to the city tonight?"

"I don't think so." Su Liang puffed up his chest and said, "My Su family has a lot of wealth. Even if he waits all night to complete the inventory, it will still be after midnight."

"That's good." Lu Bu stood up suddenly: "It's a good thing if someone is willing to take the initiative to prepare everything for you."

Hu Sanniang and the siblings over there were startled, looked at each other, and said, "Lang Junxun wants to..."

"The food and grass were robbed halfway." Lu Bu took two steps and looked at Su Liang: "When you escape, the officials may think that you dare not go back. There are so many people waiting for him, so there won't be any Why should you be on guard? After the inventory of your family's assets is completed, you may go all the way back. If we catch them by surprise and attack them unprepared, we will most likely be able to succeed."

After a pause, he ordered: "Let Ou Peng and Zhang Heng start resting and leave for Sujiazhuang when the rooster crows tomorrow. There are some things that are not so easy to get."

Hu Sanniang agreed and immediately went out to look for someone. Su Jinniang said excitedly: "My brother is very true to what he said. Anyway, it was his government that was unkind. Why shouldn't my Su family get back my things?"

Su Liang was hesitant to speak, always feeling that something was wrong with his sister's behavior, but he didn't know what was wrong, so he could only watch from the sidelines.

Not long after, Hu Sanniang came in first with Ou Peng and Zhang Heng to discuss tomorrow's affairs with Lu Bu and others. The Su family brothers and sisters were familiar with the terrain, so they spared no effort in making suggestions.

A little later, the old couple from the Su family arrived with their youngest son. They hugged their daughter and kept crying, while others encouraged her.

The night passed slowly amid the noise. (End of chapter)
