Water Margin: Lu Bu sits on Mount Liang

Under the shade of a shabby tree, Du Lisan turned over and sat up, held his hand that was still sore and numb, stood up and kicked Zeng Mi who had two big marks on his face: "This guy is the second son of the Zeng family, tsk, I still have the strength." Quite big.”

Ma Ling picked up the gold brick and his eyes lit up when he heard this: "That's good. Master is about to take over here. Wouldn't it be just right for this person to break in?"

"That's what the commander said." Du Lisan shook his arm and nodded, then turned and looked behind him: "There are other companions of this guy outside the forest..."

"Ahem...cough, it's a little late." The sound of footsteps came from behind, but it was the scout who was kicked away earlier, holding his chest and dragging the man who was being chased over: "Ahem...Commander, this guy was killed by Zeng The ones who are chasing us, outside... well, everyone outside just now ran away on horseback."

As he spoke, he coughed hard twice and spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm.

"Forget it, master will be able to arrive today." Ma Ling held Fang Tian's painted halberd in one hand and akimbo with the other: "Take it back and wait for my master to deal with it."

Du Lisan and the other scout nodded. Not long after, the other scouts who were lagging behind ran over. Several people tied up the second son of the Zeng family and took him back.

……

The horses' hooves rang out, and the people on the horses were in a panic. Some hugged the horses' necks and refused to let go, and some even stepped into the stirrups with their feet. There was fear on their faces in panic. They looked back frequently and only relaxed when they saw no one was chasing them. One breath.

"Isn't it bad to just leave like this?"

"Bullshit! Are you going to save people?"

"Then just watch that Jurchen barbarian kill people?"

"How about we go back and take a look?"

"Zeng Er has gone crazy! It's better to run away now."

Noisy sounds rang out under the galloping horses, and the branches in the forest blocked his view. He couldn't see clearly what was going on, but the frightening screams were real. Zeng Mi chased him in with a knife. , taking it of course that his companions were killed, but he also had better thoughts: "What if no one is dead?"

"not dead……"

The reins in the hands of several people tightened, and the sound of the horses' hooves slowed down. Several people with panic-looking faces looked at each other and took the opportunity to adjust their riding postures. They all looked hesitant and did not dare to go back.

Finally, someone suggested: "Why don't you report it to the officials? Officials often deal with vicious people, so it's better than going up to them ourselves."

The rest of the people nodded their heads: "Yes, yes, yes, good report to the official, good report to the official."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!"

With a cry, several young men quickly turned around and headed towards Lingzhou City.

……

The sun rises, the autumn wind blows, and withered leaves dance in the sky amidst the whistling wind.

Tread-tap-

Horse hooves stepped on the withered yellow grass, and the swirling soil flew up into the air with broken grass. A crimson figure was moving forward. Scouts on war horses were constantly running back and forth. Fine smoke and dust flowed beside the wide yellow dragon. .

Tang Erhu came galloping on horseback.

"Chief, ahead is Zengtou City."

Red Rabbit immediately raised his arm in a scarlet cloak and said, "Pull up the big banner."

Some village soldiers hung the flag on a thick and long flagpole, and raised it vigorously amidst shouts. Amidst the roaring sound, the red flag embroidered with the word "Liangshan" swayed in the wind. The cavalry rushed out and blocked the path.

……

Zengtou City, in the early morning, the whistling wind blew. The villagers who were preparing to set up stalls in the early morning yawned and walked out of the door. They were shivered by the wind and suddenly became more energetic. They took down the wooden boards of the shops and started their day. As for the businessman, several waves of customers came in at this time. After serving, they were idle, and acquaintances gathered together to chat.

"I heard the rent is going to be adjusted."

"It went up last year and it goes up again this year. This black-hearted Jurchen barbarian..."

"Keep your voice down, or his son will kill you if he hears you."

"Spit--" The speaker was still not angry, but his voice was a little lower: "If you dare to beat me to death, then I will sue him and his family will be ruined."

"Come on, he'll pay tribute to the government, and the official won't decide how to judge him yet."

The two of them were talking at the door and suddenly stopped talking. The rumbling sound in their ears felt very familiar. They looked at each other: "Then the old Jurchen went out to herd horses?"

"It's almost winter. Where can he take care of his horses?"

"Then the sound of horse hooves..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard someone ringing the alarm bell on the wall. Someone shouted something on the wall. The person guarding the door below was pulling hard. With a squeaking sound, the door slammed shut and someone bolted it.

The ringing of the alarm bell caused chaos in the Zeng family. One after another, local heroes came out carrying spears and bows and arrows. Several sons of the Zeng family were practicing martial arts with Shi Wengong and Su Ding in the martial arts training ground. Listening to the sound of the bell, the three young men were busy. They were in a daze, looking up and looking around confusedly to see what was going on. Shi Wengong, Su Ding, and Zeng Tu had experienced more, and their expressions suddenly changed when they heard the bell ringing.

"No! Dad——"

Zeng Tu's expression changed and he was about to run back. When his brothers saw their eldest brother running home, they hurriedly followed behind him.

Shi Wengong and Su Ding looked at each other, and the latter hesitated and said, "Shall we go and take a look? After all, the Zeng family has paid, and if a thief comes to borrow food, they should help in some way." "

Shi Wengong thought for a while: "Yes."

Lifting his feet and walking towards that direction, Su Ding hurriedly followed. The two of them were not in a hurry and just walked normally. When they arrived, the five father and son of the Zeng family were in the hall, and Zeng was putting iron on his eldest son Zeng Tu's body. He put up a piece of body to protect himself, watching Shi Wengong and Su Ding come in, and said quickly: "Instructor Shi and Instructor Su are here just in time. There are soldiers and horses from unknown origins outside. If they are thieves, please help them. Treat this group of people If you withdraw, you will be grateful."

Su Ding looked at Shi Wengong and when he saw the former nodded, he also patted his chest: "Elder Zeng, don't worry, with the two of us here, thieves will definitely not be allowed to invade."

"Thank you two coaches." Zeng Nong was overjoyed and waved outside quickly: "Bring the things quickly."

At that moment, two servants moved in a wooden box. Zeng Nong leaned over and opened it. Inside, there were some iron pieces strung with thin iron chains. Zeng Nong took it out and said, "Armor is not an ordinary item, little old man." I thought of some ways, although it’s not as protective as armor, but it’s still useful.”

Su Ding frowned, instinctively looking down on these simple things. Just when he wanted to say no, Shi Wengong reached out to take it and put it on his body. He couldn't say no and had no choice but to put it on like Shi Wengong.

These iron pieces were easy to put on. After the six people finished wearing them, they hurriedly took their weapons, led their horses, and ran up the city wall of Zeng Nong with Zeng Nong.

In the field of vision, the horse and infantry armies spread out, one by one rolling their flags in the air, with a large banner arched in the middle. The expressions of the few people who saw the handwriting suddenly changed, and they once exclaimed: "Liangshan? Why are you here?"

"I'm afraid they are targeting our horses." Zeng Kui said coldly.

Outside, a fast horse galloped, and someone shot an arrow. (End of chapter)
