Water Margin Survival

Compared with the smog in the morning, the weather at noon is indeed much better.I saw that in a town on the north bank of Jiangzhou at this time, this leisure time, which was originally most suitable for taking a nap in the afternoon, was crushed by a sudden sound of dense footsteps, and the townspeople came here taking advantage of the excitement, and were very happy Called: "Go to the Hornet's house..." "Go to the Tongpan's house to choose the property, take what you like..."

It's just that when they saw Zhengzhuer standing at the door of their mansion, they couldn't help trembling in their hearts.After all, this person usually has too much prestige, and he once achieved the high position of the court's general judge. I think he is the biggest in that state except Zhizhou.For such a formidable character, it took many years for this town to produce such a powerful character.Even though he was dismissed from office at this time, no one dared to regard him as an idler. Who didn't know that he was still a frequent visitor to Cai Jiu's mansion in Jiangzhou Zhizhou?In this highly hierarchical society, being able to freely enter and leave the prefect's mansion represents his social status to some extent.

At this time, Huang Wenbing was standing at the door of his house, looking at the townspeople who came to his house to divide their property with a smile, first allayed everyone's vigilance with his old face that knew the world, and immediately relieved their doubts with encouragement, It took less than half a cup of tea to watch this group of people enter the house mixed with shame and joy.

"What are you doing?"

A middle-aged man who was quite friendly with Huang Wenbing hurried through the vegetable garden between the two families. Seeing that his younger brother was acting abnormally at this time, he couldn't help asking.

Huang Wenbing turned his head and saw that it was his elder brother who came after hearing the news. He smiled and pulled Huang Wenye, who is called "Yellow Face Buddha", to a secluded place, and said, "Brother, our family separated a few years ago, and my younger brother was out of town at that time." To be an official, I don't need a piece of land in my family, but now my younger brother has an unfeeling request, and I hope my elder brother will fulfill it!"

Huang Wenye was taken aback when he heard the words, and said, "The separation of the family was decided by my lord father while he was still alive. Do you want to go back on it?"

Huang Wenbing looked at his brother and sighed, and said, "Why do you regret it? In the past few years I have been idle, have I ever asked you to ask for land? Besides, if I cherish money, why should I give away all my belongings at this time and ask you for it again?" field?"

Huang Wenye was at a loss when he heard this, so he had to discuss the facts: "It's a good thing to help the poor and help the poor, but you don't do it like this. If everyone is like you, if everyone saves other people's poor today, it will be their turn tomorrow." It's hard for others to save themselves! Brother, I am happy for you that you can do this kind of behavior now, but everything must be done according to one's ability!"

Huang Wenbing chuckled, and didn't answer his elder brother's words, but just said to himself: "In Jiangzhou Caijiu's house, there is a gentleman who is familiar with me. Today he sold a lot of favors and came to inform me of a News: The prisoner who was robbed the other day was rescued by the strongman from Huangmen Mountain, and Cai Jiu was almost captured by them. Now everyone on the Black and White Road in Jiangzhou has been offended by my younger brother, and this is not my place. I want to take refuge for a while, and entrust the whole family of forty or fifty men and women to my elder brother, and my younger brother will go away to the end of the world!"

Huang Wenye was so shocked that he could not close his mouth from ear to ear, and he raised his forehead and complained: "I just told you to stop meddling in my own business! But you are doing such short-lived things again! It has nothing to do with you? Why do you want to kill him? If or When there is a law of nature, the retribution is only in the present, but isn't it the opposite?"

"Have nothing to do with me!?" Huang Wenbing's originally suppressed negative emotions erupted in an instant, and he said excitedly: "What do you mean has nothing to do with me? This person is just a bandit in the army, and he is unsupervised in the place where he is serving his sentence. I have been favored by the emperor for more than [-] years, and I have been favored by the emperor for more than [-] years. When I encounter such a thing, what is wrong with reporting him in front of the local officials?"

That Huang Fozi thought about it carefully, and secretly felt that his brother's words were unreasonable. When he was speechless, he heard Huang Wenbing say again: "Brother, you and my fellow countrymen, you also know how many years I have been suffering. After reading it up, I managed to get involved in a state trial in the past 20 years, because there is no backing behind me, and people are overwhelmed. You usually only look at my scenery, how do you know my inner suffering? Just talk about this matter Come on, where did I go wrong? If Song Jiang didn't have shit on him, would I be able to rely on him?"

Seeing that his elder brother was still silent, Huang Wenbing only felt that he was in a lonely situation. In addition, his heart palpitations were unbearable at this time, and he couldn't help lamenting to the air: "The world is the wind, and people like me are grass without roots. When I blow that way, I will fall to that side! If the world is turbid, I will be muddy. If the world is peaceful, I am an upright official! Is Huang Wenbing not as good at reading as anyone else, or is my brain inflexible? Everyone in the world is called this guy You guys made it like this, how come it’s only my turn, so it’s not enough?"

It was the first time for Huang Wenye to hear his younger brother say what was in his heart, and he felt a little uncomfortable. Rarely, he didn't criticize him, so he could only ask: "Brother, what are you going to do this time?"

Huang Wenbing sighed, and said: "Then Cai Jiu is a son's surname, and it can't be called a 'poison' word. He should be angry when he sees my family broken up, and he said that he died because of me these two days. I got two unexpected fortunes, so I probably won’t take my family out. I’m afraid of Song Jiang. This man’s surname is unruly, round on the outside and strong on the inside. A few days ago, he forced me to pretend to be crazy in the prison Shit, how can he let go of such hatred?"

Huang Wenye couldn't bear it when he saw that, isn't his younger brother's relatives also his relatives?At this critical juncture, it is still brotherly heart, just asked: "How can I protect your family?"

Huang Wenbing waited for this sentence, but he was not in a hurry, but he just told the things one by one: "Fortunately, the leaders on Huangmen Mountain are said to pay attention to reputation. As long as they eliminate evil and promote good, I think my brother is I am waiting for the most famous people in this town, how can they bother you? Besides, Cai Jiu will not let them go this time, so what I am most afraid of is that Song Jiang brought the group of people who were robbed to come to take revenge! Therefore I have cleared away all my belongings, and I have put an end to their idea of ​​taking advantage of the fire. If they still want to take revenge, brother, my family is in a field outside the town, and my father left it to you when we separated. There are more than two or three hundred households, and each family chooses a strong man to guard the courtyard. So there is no need to be afraid of Song Jiang when he comes. In addition, I have taken care of the officers and soldiers in this town, but upon hearing the news, I will definitely come to take care of my brother Zhou Quan! Little brother really has no other choice at this time, and I hope that my brother can take care of the lives of my family of forty or fifty!"

Huang Wenye heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the words, looked at the sky and sighed: "You and I were born of the same mother anyway, how can we ignore you at this time? What you said just now, I am not afraid anymore. I will take in my brother's family. Everything makes sense, brother, you go!"

Huang Wenbing bowed to Huang Wenye, and he got up after a long time, and said: "The house deed of my village, I have told my confidants to ask Cai Jiu to explain to him when he sends someone to look for trouble, I have prepared another thousand taels of silver, please Elder brother bought back the house when Cai Jiu left office, so that younger brother can have tiles to cover his head when he returns home in the future!"

"Yide, Yide!" Huang Wenye felt relieved when he saw that his younger brother was thinking of himself in everything.

Huang Wenbing sighed, turned around and glanced desolately into the yard, saluted again with his brother, and then disappeared at the end of the vegetable garden without looking back.

Huang Wenye stared at the direction where his brother was leaving, and stayed for a long time before returning. He immediately called out the butler and asked him to gather all the strong men in the village. He would take turns guarding against theft and burglars from tonight. Then he entertained the military and political officials in the town.

Let's say that Huang Wenbing dissipated all his belongings and let the maids and servants of the house go out, but there is a tailor who is used to flying needles and threads, he is black, thin and light.Because he is the first person here to make clothes, and he has some martial arts skills, so he has a nickname in the Jianghu, and he is the one who is called the arm-armed monkey Hou Jian.

It is said that this person lost a big customer today, and walked alone in the market.I saw him walking with his head down when suddenly someone stretched out his hand and pulled him to the base of the wall. Jian was startled when he saw this, and when he looked up, his face was filled with surprise again. It turned out that the person who pulled him It was Xue Yong, the master who taught him the spear and stick, and Hou Jian immediately bowed to him: "Master! I haven't seen you all, so I don't know how I'm doing?"

"I am wanted by the government now, brother, don't be so courteous, I came today just to ask you, since you are the first-hand local tailor, the Hornet Stinger is familiar with it!" Xue Yong whispered.

Hou Jian didn't even think about it, he said straightly: "Familiar, very familiar! I just came out of his house!"

Xue Yong slapped his thigh when he heard the words, and said happily: "It really didn't take much effort to get here. Brother, I don't know, I just let this person kill me!" After hearing all the virtuous things, Hou Jian was dumbfounded, and hurriedly told his master what he knew. Xue Yong was shocked when he saw Huang Wenbing scattered all his belongings, and couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he had to ask Hou Jian He went to see Chao Gai and Song Jiang with himself, Hou Jian readily followed them, the two galloped on the road for a while, and when they arrived at the junction, it was already dark.

At this time, the little overlord Zhou Tong and the little Zhelan Mu Chun had asked everyone to dig a hole to bury them, but they didn't dare to put up an inscription for fear that the government would dig them out, so they left two steles without words.If it hadn't been for the prison being captured that day, Mu Hong would not have fallen to where he is now. As soon as he called the government to arrest him, the next day the documents accusing the two brothers of his crimes would come like snowflakes, and Cai Jiu would have copied Dai Zong's house. As a matter of selfishness, he also accepted the Mu family's private property with a smile.Mu Hong's old father was old, how could he stand up to this series of bad news, and he died of embarrassment.Now all the doors and walls of his house belong to others, and this person has become a lonely person in the world.

When Xue Yong came back, he introduced Hou Jian to everyone, and Hou Jianzai carefully explained the details of Huang Wenbing's residence. When everyone saw this, their hearts were cold, and Zhang Huo'er, Zhang Heng, immediately slapped him in his heart. He muttered: "This guy has scattered all the family wealth, what else is he going to do?"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Song Jiang knelt down on the ground first. All the heroes, including Chao Gai, knelt down hastily and said in unison, "What's the matter with brother (brother)? But it's okay, brothers, dare you not listen?"

Song Jiang said: "I am not talented. I have been an official since I was a child and a man in my first life. I have to weave heroes in the world. Naiyuan is weak and talented, so I can't receive him, so I can fulfill my life's wish. Since I was assassinated in Jiangzhou, I feel so much about Chao and all the heroes. I searched for each other hard, and on the road until the Xunyang River, I met many heroes. I didn’t want to be small but not talented. I was drunk for a while, and I was almost exhausted. Dean Dai’s life. Thanks to all the heroes who did not avoid danger, came to Tiger’s Cave and Longtan, and worked hard Saving the disabled is just because everyone committed this heinous crime for Song Jiang. Today, Song Jiang couldn't help asking everyone to go to Erlong Mountain to vote for Brother Chao Gai, but before that, there was a revenge that had to be reported..."

"Revenge!" Before Song Jiang could speak, Mu Hong jumped up and shouted: "The thief just ran away, and there are still forty or fifty people here, I want them to pay for my brother's life! "

"The guy has already run away, so don't make any more troubles, it's best to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible!" Zhang Heng said.

Mu Hong saw that his eyes were red with anger, and he shouted: "Zhang Heng, you really don't have any sense of loyalty, no wonder even your younger brother looks down on you. If you are afraid that you will die, no one will beg you, and no one will beg you." Please don't say that you came from the Xunyang River in the future!"

Zhang Heng was sore in the center of the drink, his face turned purple with anger, he pointed at Mu Hong and said, "Go, go, anyone who is innocent, let him sink in this Xunyang River to feed the bastard! "(To be continued.)
