Liu Zhongxiang greeted the horseman who was squatting next to him, and the horseman's foot strength was also calm, although there were dead bodies all over the ground, but none of them had much fear, what should they do. (No pop-up window to read)

The fat officer also got into the carriage with the support of the girl.

Liu Zhongxiang turned around and hugged my fist: "I have offended, please forgive Wang Shaoxia." ”

"It's nothing, what's the origin of this guy?" I'm interested in this fat man.

"This person's name is Wu Xiulin, and he was put in Suixian County to serve as a magistrate, but his term of office has just expired, and he was entrusted to our dart bureau to escort him back to Beijing to step down. Don't hide it from Wang Shaoxia, this guy is searching in Suixian day and night, and I don't know how much people's fat and ointment he forcibly took. When I returned to Beijing this time, I deliberately brought this huge amount of money with me and went to Beijing to go to activities, wanting to let go of the prefect. ”

"Fuck ......" I couldn't help but scold, I knew it was like this, so I wouldn't have saved him.

Those foot force grooms are not good at kung fu, but the car or something is very neat, and it will be ready in a while. Seeing that they were ready, Liu Zhongxiang hugged his fists at me and said: "Wang Shaoxia, don't say goodbye, if Wang Shaoxia is of any use in the future, please bring someone to write a little letter, there is no other thing to say in the future!" ”

"Please!" I also hold my fists.

Liu Zhongxiang jumped into a carriage, bowed his hand at me, and ordered to set off.

The bell jingled and the convoy moved slowly.

The bodies of the dead dart division were taken away, leaving the bodies of more than a dozen robbers and several injured and immobile robbers on the ground.

He glanced at them and said, "That's it for this time, don't let me see you doing anything like a traitor again, otherwise you will be the same as him." I pointed to the body that I had pierced in the back of the head.

"Thank you, Daxia, we don't dare to ...... anymore" The robbers kept thanking, but they knew, they were almost killed by the order of the official just now, but fortunately I refused.

"How far you go, how far you go, as far as you go, will be seen by others, I'm afraid you won't have good fruit to eat!" I reminded you that it is clear that when those who have been bullied lose their sharp teeth and claws when they see that those who have been bullying them all have lost their sharp teeth and claws, the sheep that were once used to them may become tigers and eat them all.

"Yes, yes!" Everyone helped each other and slowly went to the woods, they couldn't go far because they were unable to move, and it was a good law to hide and recuperate first, and they were not stupid.

Turned around and took Siyun, rode up and walked forward slowly, I don't want to meet that Wu Xiulin again.

Not a day, come to Liaocheng, from the north to the south, from the west to the east of the Grand Canal and the Yellow River converge here, the unique geographical advantage, so that Liaocheng since ancient times is a gathering of businessmen, a hundred industries prosperous, sail walls such as forests, goods such as mountains.

I didn't go into the city, but rode to the Yellow River.

Seven years ago, the place of the night of the Great War.

Seven years later, the traces of the battle are completely gone, and perhaps some locals can still hear about the inexplicable fire and the corpses in the fire from the casual chatter of some locals.

The reeds withered and yellowed, and the breeze rose with a gentle rustling sound.

Led the horse to the riverbank, picked up the water and washed the dust on my face, the cold Yellow River water was cold to my heart, and the originally depressed mood was immediately dispelled by the cold.

After finding an inn to rest for the night, I followed the footsteps I had chased that day to the upper reaches of the Yellow River.

The scenery along the way was completely unimpressive, perhaps because the interval was too long, or maybe because I didn't have time to take a closer look at the scenery around me that day.

In the evening, I came to Sifangdu again.

Sifangdu has not changed much from seven years ago, it is still a few families and a noodle restaurant. The dry period of the Yellow River has not yet passed, the shipping is deserted, and the Sifang Ferry is also crowded.

The business of the ferry port is directly reflected in the noodle restaurant of the eldest sister-in-law, the empty noodle restaurant, or the original small table that has been knocked up and mended many times.

"Anyone?" After sitting in the noodle restaurant for a long time, no one came to greet me.

"It's coming, it's coming!" A woman's voice in the backyard came from far and near.

"The guest officer is here! Sorry, I didn't say hello. What would you like to eat? "The woman's age is a little older, but she can still see what she looked like back then, it seems that this small business is not easy to do, only seven years ago, so that the sister-in-law of the year became the eldest mother.

"A bowl of mutton noodles!" I looked up at my sister-in-law.

"Need something else?" The sister-in-law asked.

Although she saw that my eyes were a little strange, she didn't care, she should understand that I wouldn't think anything wrong about her, and I really didn't mean anything else, I just wanted to see if she still recognized me, but obviously, she didn't have an impression of me at all, and it wasn't strange that people opened stores, how many people were received all year round, how could they remember me.

"Oh, what else?" I remember that back then, it only sold pasta.

Seeing that I didn't refuse, my sister-in-law said: "Yes, our own pickled bacon and sausages, and there is an authentic Yellow River carp in the kitchen that was just caught from the river two days ago, and it is still alive!" ”

Unexpectedly, the eldest sister-in-law's business is getting bigger and bigger: "Then cut me bacon." ”

"Okay, wait a minute!" The sister-in-law went to the backyard.

After my sister-in-law walked away, I perfected my mind again, and I didn't just come here to incense Master.

At noon the next day, some fishermen found Master in the water, that is to say, the place where Master had an accident was only a day and a half away from here, of course, Master They could not have been attacked in a place that was a day and a half away from here, and it was impossible for Master to drift here just after being attacked. According to my calculations, the speed of going upstream against the current is about half that of the river, deducting the time it takes for Master to drift downstream, which means that the place where Master had an accident is about ten hours away from here. I will use this as a base to investigate both sides of the river upstream, and see if I can find out how the battle took place. Generally speaking, it is impossible for bandits to leave their own mountains too far to ambush the merchants, and the places they control are generally very dangerous mountains, with the mountains as the center and dozens of miles around, if they leave the mountains too far, it is easy to leak the news, and second, it is easy to be killed by the army. If you can't find out any news, then you have to go and visit those people in the green forest yourself. You know, in the Song Dynasty, Song Jiang in Liangshan Boxing volunteers, set up for the will of the Heavenly Way, the Song Dynasty sent troops to suppress repeated defeats, and finally had to issue an order to recruit An, although later the volunteers were later killed by the Song Dynasty with two peach and three soldiers to lead the Liangshan volunteers and Fang La to fight, and finally both were defeated, and the Song Dynasty removed the trouble of two henchmen in one fell swoop. Although the Liangshan heroic army failed, its prestige and reputation of one hundred and eight generals can be said to be more ancient. Since then, there have been countless heroes in the land of Qilu, all of whom are descendants of self-proclaimed heroes of Liangshan. And some of these people are waving the banner of doing the right thing for heaven, but they are actually fishing for the common people and the party of disaster. This place is not far from the Lu realm, and it is only more than 300 miles away from the birthplace of the volunteers, and there are countless bandits and river bandits.

"Guest, what are you thinking? Everything is ready! The sister-in-law's voice rang in her ears.

When I came back from my thoughts, a large bowl of mutton noodles and a plate of bacon were already on the table, and a few cloves of garlic were piled up.

I nodded in thanks.

"The weather is very cold, do you want to come to a pot of wine to warm up your body, my man's own sorghum wine is very strong!" The sister-in-law is still selling.

"No! I won't. Thank you, sister-in-law. "The rivers and lakes are in turmoil, and there are many people who have died and died by mistake since ancient times, so when I left Pinghu Town, I had already allowed myself to quit drinking.

The eldest sister-in-law was a little disappointed, said "oh" lightly, and sat down at a table next to her.

Picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of bacon in your mouth, not to mention, this self-marinated bacon tastes good, and it tastes even better with garlic cloves.

"By the way, sister-in-law, I want to ask you something!"

"You say!" The eldest sister-in-law stepped forward.

"Is there an inn around here?" Since you plan to use this as a base, you should naturally find a place to stay.

"There is no inn in the village, but there is an inn in Jingtai Town across the river! It's a little far, but it's a little bit down. ”

"It's too far! Is there a closer? "It's not much of a problem to be on the other side, but I'm going upstream, and it's too far to live.

"I have a spare room in my house, or you will spend the night at my house!"

"It's not good, I have some things that I might have to stay here for a long time!"

"It doesn't matter, you can live as long as you want, anyway, the house is empty, you live here with me, it's convenient to eat, isn't it?" My sister-in-law seemed to be interested in renting a house, and she didn't ask me why I wanted to stay here, but only wanted to keep me at their house.

"That's it, that's fine!" I also made it easier for me to agree: "How do you think the rent should be calculated!" ”

"I wonder how long you're going to stay?"

"I can't say for sure, maybe a few days, maybe a few months!" I don't know when I'll be able to find out.

"That's ......," the sister-in-law pondered.

"Otherwise, I'll pay a month's rent first, and if I live for less than a month, I don't have to return the money, and if I haven't left after a month, I'll pay you another month until I'm done, what do you think?"

"Okay!" This matter is not harmful to the eldest sister-in-law, she quickly agreed.

"What's the monthly rent?"

The eldest sister-in-law seemed to be calculating something, and after a long time, she said, "Do you think this is okay?" Give one or two pieces of silver every month, and eat separately! ”

"No problem!" I still have a few dozen taels of silver on me, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem to stay for a year and a half.

After the place to settle down, eat happily.
