Chapter Forty-Eight: The Jade-Faced Mouse

After a while, Big Scar Liu arrived, and Li Muying reminded Xie Yucheng in front of the fire pond that it was time to leave. When Xie Yucheng got up, Niu Er, who was naked next to him, also stood up, regardless of the fact that his clothes had not been completely dried, he hurriedly put on his body, and followed Xie Yucheng while slapping on it.

Seeing that Niu Er also came over, the big scar Liu and Li Dongjia felt strange in their hearts, and they couldn't help but look at Xie Yucheng and glanced at Niu Er again.

Seeing this, Niu Er hurriedly accompanied the two with a smile: "The two of us are together, together." ”

When he said this, although Niu Er looked like a matter of course on the surface, he was very worried in his heart, and couldn't help but glance at Xie Yucheng out of the corner of his eye, and saw that he still had the usual paralyzed face, so he put his mind at ease. At this time, seeing that Li Dongjia and Big Scar Liu had already walked to the edge of the bridge, he boldly took two steps forward, tightened a sleeve that had not yet been put into his arm, bowed to Li Dongjia and Big Scar Liu, stretched out a hand, and guided forward: "Li Dongjia, Boss Liu, Mr. Xie, Leopard Brothers, please first!" ”

After the four of them crossed the bridge, he hurriedly put on his half-dry and half-wet clothes and followed him across the wooden bridge.

In the camps on the east bank, the voices were even louder, with people sitting around bonfires and a buzz in the sparsely wooded basins.

The two bandits who led the way obviously had a good status in the cottage, and they saw that every time they passed a bonfire, there were always bandits who greeted them.

In the center of the camp, the leper tiger and the leaders were talking and laughing loudly around a bonfire, and the leper tiger's bare head was blazing. Two huge mule legs were sitting on the campfire, sizzling with oil.

When the leper tiger saw them coming, the leper tiger hurriedly got up and greeted: "Mother, Brother Eagle, you are finally here." ”

The bandits also stood up one after another, and Big Scar Liu was more familiar with the bandits, so he took on the responsibility of introducing them.

The bandits paid tribute to Li Muying, and when Xie Yucheng was introduced, the leper tiger laughed and joked to everyone about Xie Yucheng:

"Brothers, this ...... Is that the gentleman who told you the story of the Water Margin in the afternoon? I can't think of it, brothers, this Xie brother....... is so young, haha, Brother Xie, today you cut off our eighteen rows of Zhao'an, and you will have to pay three glasses of wine later, otherwise, the big and small palms in the cottage are afraid that you will not be spared. Haha......"

The bandit leaders all looked at it with burning eyes, Xie Yucheng was in a daze, and hurriedly bowed to the leaders, and finally looked at the leprosy tiger, smiled, and said:

"The tiger master has won the award, and all the leaders of the cottage are heroes among the people, how can they be crooked by saying a few nice words? Although I have never seen the Luo butcher, I also know from your palms that although this Luo butcher is dressed in tiger skin, what he does is extremely cruel and inhumane...... I think that all the leaders in the eighteenth row are all well-known tough guys, how can they be willing to be cheap and go to such a dirty goods? ”

Xie Yucheng's voice fell, and a cheer suddenly sounded around the bonfire: "This brother said it well!" I think that Luo butcher has anything, and he doesn't deserve to carry our shoes, and he wants our brothers to serve him and have his mother's dream of spring and autumn....... From today on, who dares to let me hear Zhao'an's words again, my jade-faced mouse is the first to disown him as a brother. This Brother Xie, I like you as a friend. Come on, please come and sit here! ”

When Xie Yucheng heard the sound, he saw a young man slowly standing up next to the bonfire, about twenty-two or three years old, with a good appearance, bright eyes, and a face more delicate than a woman.

The bandits naturally knew that it was Lu Hao, the sixteenth row leader. This Lu Hao, because of his handsome appearance, was nicknamed "Jade-faced Mouse" by the people on the road. These sixteen brothers, the jade-faced rat, usually cherish their words like gold, but as long as it involves major issues, he never avoids it. His personality makes him and the sixteen rows he brings with him love and fear the big and small leaders in the village.

This time was the same, the bandits knew that the reason why he loudly praised the Mr. Xie in front of him was actually because of his own ideas.

In two bloody battles with the Jingwei Regiment last year, the one-eyed old eight was so shocked that he lost his soul, and he somehow hooked up with Senator Yang of Longquan County, and he always picked up his brothers in the village to be recruited.

The jade-faced rat and his sixteenth row of people expressed strong opposition to this proposal from beginning to end. If it weren't for the persuasion of the leaders, this jade-faced rat would have fallen out with the one-eyed old man a long time ago.

Xie Yuzhen saw that this man had a good and delicate face, full of righteousness, and he looked outstanding among a group of bandits, and his good feelings doubled, and he was about to give up his hand to thank him, but he was interrupted by the leprosy tiger next to him, who hugged Li Muying and pulled the big scar Liu, and laughed:

"Brother Ying, Big Scar Liu, don't just stand, when it comes to Tianguang, your stomach is empty. Come, come, sit down. Haha, come, come, come, Brother Ying, you sit next to your brother, Big Scar Liu, you sit there, Brother Xie, you go over, sit with my sixteenth brother. ”

After a long period of greetings, everyone sat down, and the leprosy tiger who was full of interest ordered to bring wine, and two bamboo bowls and a pair of chopsticks were placed in front of each person. It was made by eighteen rows of people who cut bamboo temporarily, and it still exuded the fragrance of bamboo. Due to the rush of time, the workmanship of the bowl is inevitably a little rough. When Xie Yucheng took it in his hand, he felt that there were still one or two bamboo stubbles on the edge of the bowl that had not been dealt with, so he added some work to it and dragged them off one by one.

The leprosy tiger is tall, although he has a bald head, but he has thick eyebrows and big eyes, a straight nose and a wide mouth, and a grassy beard on his chin, which adds a bit of might.

"Brother Ying, Big Scar Liu, Brother Xie, come," and when everyone's bowl was filled with wine, the leper tiger picked up the bowl with a smile and said radiantly, "For today, we don't know each other, let's drink his mother's bowl first!" ”

"Come, come, come, Brother Ying, Big Scar Liu, Brother Xie, everyone come together!" The leaders laughed and picked up their bowls to persuade them to drink. Li Muying and Big Scar Liu sat on both sides of the leper tiger, and the atmosphere around the bonfire quickly became warm. Among the crowd, Xie Yucheng did not see the one-eyed dragon, and he was hit in the shoulder during the firefight, so it is estimated that it is inconvenient to attend now. Xie Yucheng didn't pay much attention either.

"Brother Xie, although you have a high level of education and good eloquence, but my sixteenth brother's martial arts character is only afraid that you can't compare? Haha, let's talk about it, the old man said that he was right........"

After a while, the leprosy tiger on the opposite side laughed again and said to Xie Yucheng. It could be seen that he was very satisfied with the jade-faced rat beside Xie Yucheng.

What Xie Yucheng didn't know was that the reason why today's situation was reversed was entirely because of the outstanding performance of the 16th platoon, and the other platoons, including the "Li Pai" brought by the leprosy tiger himself, were all purely at the soy sauce level.

Listening to the gong and listening to the sound, Xie Yucheng heard that this leprosy tiger obviously wanted to praise this right-hand man in front of everyone, only to hear him emphasize again and again, saying that the sixteen rows of jade-faced rats are all strong in martial arts and courageous, and they are one of the main forces in the village.

said that the jade-faced rat Lu Hao himself is "two guns on the left and right, and 100 shots".

For such a scene, under normal circumstances, the parties will come out to be modest, but what makes Xie Yucheng strange is that Lu Hao, who was still arrogant just now, just smiled casually at this, and he could deal with it.

The scene was a little deserted for a while.

The evening breeze blows gently, making people's cheeks slightly cold and itchy, and it also makes the flames on the bonfire flicker and darken.

At this moment, the original noise around several bonfires near and far suddenly stopped, and suddenly became silent.

Everyone looked up in amazement, and saw a long fuchsia figure in the distance, like a proud peacock, hesitating from between the piles of bonfires.

In the evening breeze, the figure of Si is shaped, graceful, like a fairy in the sky, just descending on this mountain wilderness against the wind.

The basin lit by the campfire in the darkness of the night, and the black mountains that lay in the crook of her legs, stretched like her skirt to the sky.

A golden crescent moon, with a few evening stars, embedded in the canopy behind her waist, flickered as her fluttering garment flickered.

The evening breeze blew, and the bushes in the distance, the shadows of the grass in the distance, and the flames jumping and burning on the campfire, all bowed down to her.

The people who came to the table late walked lightly, and in a blink of an eye, they came to the front. But seeing her green silk like clouds, delicate face and jade face, bright eyes, long figure standing proudly, under the bright and dazzling bonfire, like a beautiful statue of unparalleled beauty.

With a click, the sound of the bamboo bowl falling to the ground sounded next to Xie Yucheng. The second brother of Niu with a yellow face and thin muscles looked up at the comer, and couldn't help but be stunned, like a sacrificial spirit full of piety and kneeling down to worship the gods.
