Xiaofeng and Ding Hu captured the two thieves, and they wanted to drag the two thieves back to the inn and hand them over to the three elders in the village for disposal.

Ding Hu beat the two thieves first, took the baggage, and checked the contents of the baggage, and there was nothing missing. Seeing the two thieves begging for mercy, Ding Hu said to Xiaofeng: "This kind of thief is despicable and should not be spared." ”

Xiaofeng groaned, and when the two thieves saw it, they begged: "We don't want to be thieves, but we don't have food and clothing on weekdays, so we steal something in order to feed ourselves." If there are serious things that can be fed and clothed, how can they be willing to commit thieves and steal? I don't want to offend the two heroes, as long as we do anything this time, we just don't sue the official, if the villagers know, I'm afraid neither of us can live here anymore. ”

Xiao Feng saw that although the two were thieves, their words were not annoying, he had compassion in his heart, so he said to Ding Hu: "Since the burden has been recovered and the things are not missing, you can spare people." ”

The two thieves were overjoyed when they heard this, and hurriedly kowtowed to Xiaofeng to apologize. Ding Hu said to the two: "They are all chivalrous and chivalrous, so they are merciful." Let you wait this time, if you bump into it again next time, you won't be spared! ”

The two thieves thanked him again and again, and were about to leave, when suddenly one of them turned around and asked, "Is this really a hero who is known as a popular man in the rivers and lakes?" ”

Ding Hu felt speechless, so he shouted to the man: "Let you go, hurry up, why do you talk so much?" ”

Xiaofeng stopped Ding Hu and said to the two: "I am Fengxingzi, do you two have any doubts?" ”

The two of them heard and hurriedly came over to kowtow to thank each other, saying that they had offended Feng Xingzi today, they really had no eyes, but they didn't know each other, the two had already heard the name of Feng Xingzi's heroes, and this time they were willing to follow Feng Xingzi with a whip and stirrup, and eat together.

Ding Hu shouted: "Feng Xingzi is a hero of the rivers and lakes, what do you want the two of you to follow?" I'm not afraid of dishonoring our reputation. Let's go! ”

Seeing the two of them like this, Xiao Feng hesitated in his heart, and when he saw Ding Hu chasing the two of them, he stopped Ding Hu and came to ask the two: "What are the two of you capable of?" ”

One of them said: "The villain doesn't have his ability, but he can steal the law." ”

Xiaofeng asked, "What is a dog thief?" ”

The man said: "The villain knows the temperament of dogs, but when he wants to steal, if there is a dog to protect him, the villain can try to keep it from barking, so that he can not alarm others, and this is all about it." ”

Xiao Feng smiled when he heard this: "Although this is not very glorious, it can be regarded as a skill. ”

Then he asked another person: "He knows how to steal dogs, what kind of skills will you have?" ”

Another said: "The villain is good at imitating the crowing of chickens, and the crowing of chickens can cause a flock of chickens to crow in unison, and sometimes steal, so as to facilitate cover." ”

Xiaofeng smiled again: "You two are a natural pair!" In this case, and demonstrate, see if the chickens in the village can sing with you at this time? ”

The man received the order, and then made a rooster crow, and sure enough, it was able to confuse the real with the false, and after a few rooster crows, other chickens in the nearby village also crowed.

Xiaofeng and Ding Hu were very surprised when they saw this, so they asked the man to stop, and the man stopped crowing, and the chickens in the village stopped crowing. Xiao Feng felt strange, so he said to the two: "I am inconvenient for you to follow today. But I'll show you two a place to go, enough to have food and clothing, and you can live in peace, but I don't know if you two are willing to go? ”

Both of them said: "If there is such a place, of course Xiao Ke is willing to go." ”

Xiaofeng said: "Qi Guo Xue Cheng is recruiting guests, as long as it is an elder with a skill, Xue Gong will not refuse to come." Now the two of you, one can steal the law of dogs, and the other can crow chickens, maybe Xue Gong can use this kind of ability. ”

The two of them were shocked when they heard this: "Xue Gong is the dignified prince of Qi State, the villain is such a humble person, even if he knows some small tricks of chicken and dog thieves, how can Xue Gong accept it?" ”

Xiaofeng said: "It's okay if you listen to me." There are many guests under Xue Gong's door who are similar to the two of you. Stealing and stealing in this village is not a long-term solution. If you two are willing to go, I will sponsor the gift to go and entangle. ”

When the two heard this, they exchanged glances with each other, and they were suspicious, Xiaofeng asked Ding Hu to take out some silver money from the burden and distribute it to the two, Ding Hu took the silver money and gave it to the two: "Today, Fengxingzi will show you a way out for the two of you, and you will wait for you, still don't believe it?" ”

Seeing this, the two of them kowtowed to thank each other, then accepted the entanglement, expressed their willingness to listen to Xiaofeng's words, and went to Meng Weijun.

Xiaofeng said: "In this case, you can go home and rest later, and I will not investigate tonight's incident, but you can't steal again in the future." ”

The two thanked them and promised to go. Xiaofeng beckoned Ding Hu to take the burden and return to the inn to continue sleeping. The innkeeper has woken up, heard that there is a thief, so he also took a stick to catch the thief, waiting outside the store, is meeting Xiaofeng and Ding Hu back, Xiaofeng said to the innkeeper: "A little thief, stole my baggage, saw us chasing, then left the burden, has fled away, don't be surprised." After hearing this, the master only thought it was true, and when sleepiness came, he didn't want to worry about it, closed the door and fell asleep again.

The two of them took the plate given by Xiaofeng and went to Meng Weijun, and the director of the museum and the guests all laughed when they heard that the two would know how to steal chickens and dogs.

The director of the museum didn't want to accept the two, but when Meng Weijun heard about it, he said: "People come to me from afar, even if they can only use the art of chickens and dogs, they should accept it." So the director of the hall included the two of them, and let them live in the house and be the most inferior guests. Although there is no fine food and clothing, cars and horses, but food and clothing are worry-free.

These two people have been unknown for many years under Meng Yanjun's door, until later Meng Yanjun entered the Qin State as the prime minister, and the two followed Meng Yanjun to the Qin State as a servant, and later Meng Shanjun was imprisoned by the King of Qin, and the dog thieves stole the fox white Qiu to the King of Qin's Ai Ji, Ai Ji interceded for Meng Yanjun, and the King of Qin released Meng Shanjun. Meng Weijun fled to Hangu Pass overnight, closed in the middle of the night, and only switched off the guest when the rooster crowed, so the chicken chirped and the door guest made a chicken crow, causing the resonance of the group of chickens on the close, and the customs official switched on and off the guest, and Meng Yanjun and his party were able to escape. Not long after Meng Shanjun came out of the customs, the King of Qin regretted it and sent chasing troops to pursue Meng Shanjun, but Meng Shanjun was able to get out of the customs in advance and walked for a long time, but he couldn't catch up.

Meng Weijun got rid of it, returned to Qi State, and rewarded him for his meritorious deeds, rewarded the rooster and dog thief two doormen, and promoted him as a first-class guest and lived in the house. The two of them actually became Meng Weijun's guests with the technique of rooster and dog thief.

Xiaofeng ended his trip to the Qi country, and then entered the realm of Zhongshan from Jibei, preparing to enter the Yan country from Zhongshan country.

Although Zhongshan is a kingdom surnamed Ji, it is not a prince canonized by the Zhou Dynasty, it is a country established by the Bai Di people in the Spring and Autumn Period, after the Rongdi, Xianyu, Zhongshan and other periods, it is located in the Zhao State, bordering the Yan State of Qi.

Since the founding of Zhongshan Wugong Ji Cave, Zhongshan has strong soldiers and horses, and at its peak, it is known as 9,000 military vehicles, and has become a major problem for the countries of the Central Plains of China several times. Wei Zeng sent Le Yang as a general and sent troops to attack the Zhongshan Kingdom. But later, Zhongshan Henggong returned to the country, and the country was strong again. In the late Warring States period, Zhongshan still had considerable troops, and captured more than ten cities of Yan and expanded the land for hundreds of miles. Even if the Zhao army was strong, it was not enough to defeat the annexation of Zhongshan.

Zhongshan is Lingshou, of which Le Yang is sealed in Lingshou, and his descendants Le Yi are Zhongshan people.

The Zhongshan Kingdom and the Zhao Kingdom are close to each other, among which the heroes of the Zhao Kingdom, Pang Hui, Zhao and others have lived in the Zhongshan Kingdom, and they have dealings with Lingshou people Lefeng. Pang Hui and Zhao He went to the Song Kingdom to get the Gongbu Sword before, Pang Hui unfortunately died, and Zhao He returned to the Zhao Kingdom, so he abandoned the hero, devoted himself to learning, and taught his nephew Xin. Zhao He's surname is drama, and he has been passed on to someone surnamed Zhao, so his nephew is the surname of the drama.

Zhao and Pang Hui are kind, Pang Hui has a son named Pang Yuan, and Zhao He's nephew Xin is the same age, and now the two have grown up and are about to reach the age of a weak crown.

Zhao He saw that Pang Hui was looking for a sword and died, leaving behind his young son, and felt pity in his heart, so he often went to see Pang Yuan, and taught him by the way.

Zhao He once went to Zhongshan to visit Lefeng, and saw that Lefeng's son Le Yi was also an extraordinary young man, proficient in the art of war, and was deeply strange. Then he said to Le Yi: "I have two sons and nephews, who are the same age as you, and they also have their own talents, do you want to make friends with the two?" ”

Le Yi said: "The younger generation is worried that he has no friends and colleagues, and he is willing to make friends." ”

Zhao He was overjoyed, so he returned to Zhao and took Ju Xin to Pang Yuan's house to explain the matter.

Before leaving, Zhao He persuaded Pang Yuan and Ji Xin: "You must know that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky." Although the two of you are extraordinary, Le Yi is also one in a million, and in the eyes of his uncle, he should be better than the two of you. It's okay to go and learn here, but Hugh has to be dissatisfied with it and jealous. You must know that jealousy is common to everyone, and if you want to do something, don't be jealous! ”

The two agreed to Zhao Ji, so Zhao He took the two to Zhongshan Lingshou Lefeng's house to meet Le Yi.

After the three of them finished the ceremony, Pang Yuan and Ju Xing saw that although Le Yi was slightly taller but thin, he did not have the might of a soldier, but the elegance of a scholar was more than that, and the two of them were dissatisfied.

Ju Xin spoke out and asked Le Yi: "I heard that I am proficient in the art of war and swordsmanship, and I would like to know a thing or two." ”

Le Yi said: "Don't dare to take it seriously, it's just a little bit of family learning, as for swordsmanship, I only know the skin." ”

Pang Yuan said: "Since what my uncle said, it must be true, and you don't have to be modest, you can show one or two." Now let's ask, what is the art of war? ”

It turned out that the drama Xing learned the art of the vertical and horizontal family, and the knowledge of governing the country, and Pang Yuan learned the science of military conquest, Pang Yuan thought that he was already proficient in the art of war, and did not believe that Le Yi would surpass him.

When Le Yi asked, he had no choice but to say: "The art of war is like a cloud, because it is as fast as the wind, as slow as a forest, as fast as a forest, as immobile as a mountain, as difficult as a yin, as dynamic as a thunderstorm, and twenty-four characters." This is the essence of Sun Tzu's Art of War, and he thinks that the leader of the army is the general, and if he can do these 24 words, he can win a hundred battles. ”
