More than two dozen Goshkha secretly agreed, and together they flashed daggers. Zhu Kang was stunned, and Liang Guangshu in his hand had already taken off. The boat was dark and dark, and for a while I didn't know where to go, and the boatload of people suddenly became a mess, and in the screams, more than a dozen brothers had fallen into the water with daggers. The rest were stunned, some jumped into the water to escape, and some came up to fight, but how could they withstand the well-trained officers and soldiers with strict military orders? Seeing that the general trend had gone, Zhu Kang raised his hand and shouted loudly to the rest of the boats: "Brothers, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, and escape one by one!" "Shouting that he was about to throw water, he had already been pressed by a few people, and he was punched and kicked while being bound, and for a while he was tied up like a zongzi.

"Not a single one can escape." Secretly, Ah Gui's eyes flashed like ghost fire: "You will know when you go ashore, you have to go south, maybe you can slip through the net." To the north, a dead end! ”

This rebellion that shocked the government and the opposition was easily subdued by Ah Gui. On the second day, Ah Gui counted the prisoners and wrote a report to the imperial court. Seeing that the matter had been settled, Gongzi said goodbye to Ah Gui and left Shaanzhou.

On the south bank of the Yellow River, a figure emerged from the water, first inspected the surrounding environment, and saw that there were no officers and soldiers stationed there, so he swam to the shore boldly and with confidence. Soon, he emerged from the water and walked swiftly towards the shore shivering from the cold. This person is Li Ming, who jumped from the boat into the river. Fortunately, Li Ming was smart and didn't sit with Zhu Kang when he got on the boat, he chose to take the last boat, and when he saw that things were not good, he was the first to jump into the river to find a way to live.

At this moment, he came out of the river, wet, and walked forward with a deep foot and a shallow foot. On this cold day, my clothes are wet again. You have to find a family. But where is there a house in front of the village and no store in the back? Fortunately, he still had two flints in his arms and found a leeward place. It took half the night to light a bundle of firewood.

The next day, the sky was bright. Only then did he identify the direction and walk westward, and said in his heart, after crossing the Yellow River but the boundary of Shanxi, he finally escaped from the cage. After tossing all night, he was tired and hungry, thinking about how to find a family to mix a bowl of rice to eat.

After walking for a while, I finally came across a thatched house. At this time, Li Ming didn't care about anything else, and staggered over to knock on the chaimen. Not for a while. Out of it came a man, about thirty-five years old, with white skin and thick eyebrows and big eyes. Seeing that Li Ming was so wolfish, he simply asked, "Are you a traitor who escaped?" ”

Li Ming was startled, thinking that this man was an official soldier, so he fled after taking the road. The man jumped over, turned over, and grabbed Li Ming's collar. threw him straight into the courtyard, and said, "Before you finished speaking, what are you running away?" ”

Seeing this, Li Ming pretended to be sad. said, "What do you want to ask?" I'm just a refugee who escaped from Hung Yen Province, and I want to beg for food, where is some kind of traitor? ”

The man laughed and said, "You don't fool me!" Look at your clothes wrinkled like this. It is clear that he came across the water last night and dried it overnight. I heard that there was a rebellion in Shaanzhou. I'm only across the river from Shaanzhou, aren't you a traitor? If it's an officer or military. At this time, you will break into the house to slaughter chickens and ducks, and you will pretend to beg for food like you? ”

Li Ming saw that this man was right, his knees weakened, he knelt down and kowtowed: "The eldest brother is wise, please ask the eldest brother to save the younger brother's life." ”

The man helped Li Ming up and said, "I'm not a big brother, I'm just a fellow practitioner." ”

As soon as he said that he was in the same way, Li Ming hurriedly got up and asked, "So the eldest brother is also mixed up in the Tao?" Do you mean to rebel? Seriously, I, Li Ming, want to unite another group of people to rebel, does the eldest brother have this idea? ”

The man arched his hand and said to Li Ming: "It's not convenient to talk here, let's go in and talk." ”

Li Ming hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, how can such a confidential thing be said here?" Beware of partition walls with ears. No, you don't have a wall here, who are afraid of hearing it? ”

The man pulled him into the house. I saw that the furnishings in the room were very simple, a bed made of wooden planks, two wooden piers, and a table made of stone. In addition, the utensils and utensils are all collected from the mountains and forests, which is extremely simple. The man invited Li Ming to sit on a wooden pier, boiled some hot tea in a broken porcelain pot, poured it into a concave stone cup, and served it to Li Ming. Li Ming took the stone cup, blew and drank, and asked: "Dare to ask the eldest brother, there is something in the house that can fill the stomach, let the younger brother eat some together, the stomach is really hungry." ”

The man took out two pieces of steamed buns that were frozen hard from inside, and Li Ming was not too hard, so he bit and ate them. Only then did the man ask again: "Are you really a bandit who escaped from Shaanzhou?" ”

Li Ming chewed the steamed bun with difficulty, and said indistinctly: "Don't hide it from my eldest brother, I am not a bandit, I am the leader of the bandits, and the riot in Shaanzhou was planned by me." My brother Zhu Kang had already been captured by the officers and soldiers, and I escaped by jumping into the river. ”

The man asked in surprise: "So, you are Li Ming?" ”

Li Ming was also taken aback and said, "How do you know my name?" ”

The man said: "The names of the two bandit leaders of the Shaanzhou riots are Zhu Kang and Li Ming. You said that Zhu Kang was arrested, and that brother must be Li Ming. ”

Li Ming praised again and again: "Big brother is so smart! If you don't become a bandit, you're at a loss. If I had known Brother Zhu Kang before, I wouldn't have failed at this time. However, I said, what is the name of the eldest brother, and who is it? How do you build a grass nest where this bird doesn't poop? ”

When this man heard this, he was moved, his eyes turned red, and he almost rolled down two lines of tears. It turned out that this man was the little military master who escaped from the Double Snake Mountain. That day, he tried every means to persuade Duan Yong to no avail, lying in the room and unable to sleep, thinking about Jing Fang didn't know what was going on in Hutou Mountain, and faintly heard the sound of bows and arrows from behind the mountain. He knew that something was wrong, and he was afraid that the officers and soldiers would attack the cottage at night, so he hurriedly found a path to escape from the mountain. Later, he heard that the Twin Snake Mountain and the Tiger Head Mountain had been exterminated, and the Twin Snake Cottage Master vomited blood and died, and the Tiger Head Cottage Master was escorted to Beijing. He was so frightened that he didn't dare to go back to the cottage to find Jingfang, and he couldn't go home to find his wife Yu. After thinking about it for a long time, he said in his heart, Shaanzhou originally had a distant cousin of his own, so he had to come to him first. I didn't want this cousin to go to the south of the Yangtze River, and I heard that the officers and soldiers were going to come to quell the rebellion in Shaanzhou County, for fear of implicating themselves, so I had to cross the river and build a thatched hut here, cut some firewood to sell in the village, and then buy some food, to hide people's eyes.

Listening to the use of martial arts to narrate the inside story, there are like-minded meanings. Li Ming was overjoyed that he had finally found a smart person with brains, not better than these stupid men? Wu Xin has great ambitions, but he is not valued by the owner of the village in Double Snake Mountain, and when he saw Li Ming at this time, he admired himself and felt that it was difficult to find a soulmate. The two hit it off, and simply carefully discussed how to make a comeback, rebel well, and do a big business to succeed.

Li Ming was originally a butcher, and the only majestic thing he did in his life was to kidnap Liang Guangshu and occupy the county government for three days and three nights, and he really hadn't done anything else. At this time, I discussed with Wu Yong to do big things, and I had to mutter, big things, what is a big thing?

Wu Yong said: "Don't talk about the rest, let's recruit troops here first, and when the team grows, we will turn against the imperial court." Your previous idea was good, Zhu Kang, Li Ming, we will name it "Zhu Ming" Dynasty. ”

Li Ming was also very happy when he heard him use his own name as a name, and asked again: "But my brother Zhu Kang has been arrested." ”

Wu Yong said lightly: "It's better to be arrested, didn't you say that Zhu Kang was the fifth prince of Zhu before, wouldn't it be better for us to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty and avenge the fifth prince of Zhu?" ”

Li Ming suddenly became enlightened, he was just ignorant and knew how to do things by feeling before, but when he met the military advisor for the first time, he was so enlightened by him, and he suddenly became enlightened. He clapped his hands and shouted: "Sure enough, it's a military advisor, and the melon seeds in his head are better than the ones we sell meat." However, those who sell meat also have the benefits of selling meat, and after thinking about it for a while, I put forward a very important question: "You said you want to recruit troops?" ”

Wu Yong nodded and said: "That's natural, how can you fight against officers and soldiers without soldiers and horses?" ”

Li Ming asked: "But we don't have any money on us, how can we recruit troops?" ”

This time, Wu Yong was really dizzy, he really didn't think of this problem. After thinking about it for a while, he really didn't know how to deal with the money, so he humbly asked Li Mingdao: "Brother, do you have any good ideas?" The way I can make a fortune overnight. ”

Li Ming sighed and said: "Brother, there is no good way, the only thing he will do is to sell meat, but he must also have pork, where will I get pork at this time?" ”

Wu Yong is worthy of being a small military division, thought for a while, and said, "Okay, let's start with pork." ”

Li Ming hurriedly asked: "How do you start with pork?" No, I'll have to sell meat again, right? ”

Wu Yong smiled slightly and said, "That's not necessary, I can get a military salary with my three-inch tongue, just look at it." ”

On the second day, Wu Yong pretended to be Mr. Feng Shui and slowly came to Yuncheng County. He shook the Tai Chi bell in his hand and recited: "Those who walk, those who read the Tao, those who live at home, those who are outside, fight for the future, and count the career." One hundred years of feng shui, three hundred years of luck, there are disasters to eliminate disasters, and there are no disasters to add blessings. ”

walked two streets in a row, let him shout and cut his throat, but no one paid attention. Wu Yong's mouth was dry, and he found a big family and sat on the stone steps of the house. At this moment, the door suddenly opened, and out came a squire in a robe with a ruddy face. When the squire saw Wu Yong, he said, "Sir is polite." ”

When Wu Yong saw it, he hurriedly stood up and saluted back and said, "The master is polite, and the protégé Wu Yong is polite." ”

It turns out that the Book of Changes is the first of the hundred classics. Thinking about that year, Confucius was easy to read forty times, Wei compiled three uniques, and Fang Dasheng sighed. Confucius was originally a teacher of Confucianism, but he was a protégé of Confucius. Wu Yong saw that the squire was older, so he called him a master, and he humbly called him a protégé.

The squire arched his hand and said, "Sir is tired, can you come to the small room and sit down, drink a cup of hot tea before leaving?" ”

Wu Yong hurriedly thanked: "Master Labor! (To be continued......)
