Do you have the strength to force me to join the Liangshan bandits?

Chapter 30 Shi Wengong: I am not a running dog of the Jin people!

They were all taught by the same master, there’s no way I can break his moves!
Lu Junyi and Shi Wengong originally had very similar martial arts skills, and they were both taught by the same master...

Before I knew it, it was dark.

The bandits picked up some dry firewood and built a bonfire on the rocky beach.

Yan Qing went to the nearby woods to shoot a few pheasants. Cai Qing rolled up his trousers and went down to the river to catch two fish. Jiao Ting opened a package and took out a pack of pancakes. Yu Baosi took out the beef jerky he had brought with him.

The brothers started to roast food over the campfire, and the aroma of roasted chicken, fish and meat soon filled the air.

Lu Junyi and Shi Wengong fought for a full three hundred rounds, and finally, Shi Wengong collapsed from exhaustion...

I wasn't that tired originally, but the aroma kept going into my nostrils, and my empty stomach started to feel restless.

In the end, Shi Wengong took Lu Junyi's shot head-on, and he lost all strength and fell to the ground.

The tip of the two-foot-long steel spear hit Shi Wengong's throat, forcing him to collapse on the ground in a "wood" shape...

The two grew up together.

Eating from the same pot, sleeping on the same bed, having one master to teach, and practicing on the same field...

In fact, it is not as simple as being unable to break the moves taught by the master, but the two people have practiced against each other for at least thousands of times, and the bodies have already formed the memory.

They simply couldn't bring themselves to kill each other, and would instinctively hold back if they did.

The two were very close in terms of fighting power, so it would just be a matter of seeing who would collapse first...

"brute!"

Lu Junyi was also a little tired, panting heavily, and glared at Shi Wengong angrily:
"Master treats us like his own sons. How could you have the heart to do this to us?"

"I'm not...I didn't..."

Shi Wengong's clothes were soaked with sweat. He collapsed on the ground and weakly retorted:

"I don't want to either..."

"fart!"

Lu Junyi was furious:

"Don't you want to hurt your master?
"You don't want to steal the secret book?"

"I……"

Shi Wengong was panting like an ox, his eyes were red:

"Master is hiding something from me, so what if I take a look?..."

"Second brother!"

At this time Cai Fu interrupted.

Logically speaking, Lu Junyi is cleaning up the mess, and no one here has a say.

But Cai Fu is different.

Although he and Zhou Tong were not master and disciple in name, they were master and disciple in reality.

Plus, he was Lu Junyi's sworn brother, and it was he who helped Lu Junyi capture Shi Wengong...

So seeing that Lu Junyi was a little soft-hearted, Cai Fu interrupted:
"This fellow not only betrayed his master, but also his country and family, becoming a running dog of the Jin people!
"Why waste time talking to him? Just kill him!"

As a result, Shi Wengong, who was already exhausted, suddenly jumped up like a fish on the chopping board:

"I didn't betray my country!

"I am not a running dog of the Jin people!"

Shi Wengong yelled with his face flushed and his neck thickened, his reaction was even louder than when Lu Junyi said he had betrayed his master!

Cai Fu leaned on the ghost-head knife with both hands, looked down at Shi Wengong with a sneer:
"Aren't you a teacher in Zengtou City?"

Shi Wengong's face turned pale: "Yes, but I don't know..."

"You do not know?"

Cai Fu raised his lips to a playful smile:

"From the five tigers of the Zeng family to the elderly, children, women and children in Zengtou City!

"From their appearance to their language, from their clothing to their customs, you've been wandering around for so many years, and you didn't know they were the Jin people?"

“I, I didn’t know when I was hired…”

Shi Wengong blushed and said in defense:
"At first, Commander Zeng only asked me to teach his son martial arts...

"I just want to find a place to stay..."

Cai Fu pressed on, "Don't you know they're an ambush set by the Jin people on the Song Dynasty?"

"I didn't know about this until this year..." Shi Wengong said with a guilty look on his face.
"Officer Zeng told me that since they moved to the Song Dynasty, they are Song people...

"As for their troops, I was originally told they were there to defend Zengtou City's horse market...

"Later, more and more people came to me, and they told me that the Liangshan rebels were rampant, and in order to resist them...

"The children of Zengtou City are all singing a nursery rhyme: Sweeping Liangshan and Qingshuipo, eliminating Chao Gai and ascending to Tokyo...

"Everyone in Zengtou City is saying this, saying they're going to wipe out Liangshanpo and send the rebels to Tokyo to collect their reward...

"So I believed it all along, until a red-haired guy brought the Jade Lion of the Night to Zengtou City..."

"The Jade Lion Shining in the Night?"

Cai Fu suddenly thought of a question:
"Yes, Commander Zeng should have given you the Jade Lion of the Night.

"Why did you ask Yu Baosi to find a Thousand Mile Horse?"

"It's because of the Jade Lion..."

Shi Wengong smiled bitterly:

"Hongmaoer brought the Night-Shine Jade Lion to Zengtou City hoping to sell it for a good price...

"Commander Zeng eventually recognized it. The Jade Lion of the Night was actually the mount of a Jin prince...

"So the Five Tigers of the Zeng family seized the Jade Lion of Zhaoye and sent a messenger to report the news to the Prince of Jin...

"I don't know why the reply came so quickly. After reading it, Commander Zeng wanted to give me the Jade Lion of the Night...

"But it wasn't him who gave it to me, but the prince of the Jin Kingdom, who wanted to use the Jade Lion of the Night to make friends with me...

"Although the Jin prince only said he wanted to make friends, there are no friends without a reason in this world...

"If I accept the Jade Lion of Zhaoye, how can I refuse him if he asks me to do something against my will in the future...

"So I said I had asked someone to buy a thousand-mile horse from the north, and it was on its way...

"Commander Zeng sent me twice, but when I repeatedly declined, he framed me and had me kill Chao Gai...

"Now everyone in Liangshan Lake wants to get rid of me. Outside Zengtou City, no one can protect me...

"I can't even leave Zengtou City..."

"Wait!"

Cai Fu interrupted him:

"You said you didn't kill Chao Gai?"

"of course not……"

Shi Wengong gritted his teeth and said:
"Chao Gai attacked Zengtou City at night and was struck in the face by a poisoned arrow...

"The three characters 'Shi Wengong' were engraved on the poison arrow, so everyone said that Chao Gai was shot dead by me...

"But it was the middle of the night, with two armies engaged in a chaotic battle. How could I have shot Chao Gai by such a coincidence?

"Big Brother, you know me. Am I the kind of person who poisons arrows?"

Lu Junyi said without hesitation: "No!"

"My martial arts skills are not unparalleled, but they are also first-rate..."

Shi Wengong said aggrievedly:
"If I use poison arrows, won't people look down on me...

"Let's take a step back and say, even if I really poisoned you...

"Who would carve his name on a poisoned arrow?
"Are you afraid that people won't know how despicable you are?
"That Commander Zeng must be afraid I'd leave, so he's using this vicious scheme to tie me up in Zengtou City...

"I can't leave now and can only stay in Zengtou City, but it's hard to refuse the Jade Lion of Zhaoye..."

That's it!

When Cai Fu first read the book, he felt that Chao Gai's death was strange.

However, because Song Jiang became the leader of Liangshan after Chao Gai died, many people on the Internet speculated that it was Song Jiang who ordered Hua Rong to shoot Chao Gai to death...

But at this time, Shi Wengong's guess made Cai Fu feel more convincing.

After all, the original novel said that Chao Gai led his troops to escape, but after turning two corners, he ran into a group of soldiers and horses, who shot arrows at him, and unexpectedly, one arrow hit Chao Gai in the face.

How could Hua Rong shoot arrows in front of Chao Gai?

So the poison arrow must have been shot from Zengtou City, but Cai Fu hadn't expected there to be such a twist behind it...
