Chao Gai has been troubled lately.

From the beginning of August, to the Mid-Autumn Festival, and even a few days ago, he kept receiving one bad news after another.

First of all, his friend Song Jiang and Song Gongming inscribed anti-poems in Xunyang Building, and they were going to be asked about the news.

Before he could discuss the countermeasures, he received the news that the three Ruan brothers had died in Xuzhou, and he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Song Jiang's matter was imminent, so he had to ask Liu Tang to lead a few brothers to investigate the thieves who killed the three Ruan brothers, and he took a large army to Jiangzhou to rescue Song Jiang.

Fortunately, the rescue went smoothly, with the help of local heroes Mu Hong, Zhang Heng, Zhang Shun, Li Kui and others, Song Jiang was successfully rescued, and a group of people were also pulled into the gang.

After that, he received the news that the imperial court sent troops to encircle and suppress Liangshanbo, and he hurriedly took a large team of men and horses to rush back to Liangshanbo for thousands of miles.

Before he relaxed for a few days, news of the deaths of Liu Tang, Wang Ying and others came from Suzhou. He was heartbroken and vowed to ask his brothers for revenge, but he received the news that Song Jiang had returned with the injured Mu Hong and others, and Song Jiang told him that he could not kill the murderer for the time being, and he listened to Song Jiang's advice and put up with it for the time being.

A few days later, Wu Yong told him that with the growth of the cottage, the money and materials in the cottage were not enough, and the birthday gang that was robbed a few days ago was almost used up.

As the owner of Liangshanbo Cottage, he has to think about the big and small things of the cottage.

The robbery of the Su family's boat was also a temporary idea. According to the brothers from the south, the power of the Su family in the south of the Yangtze River should not be underestimated, whether it is the government or the rivers and lakes, the Su family is involved, but now the situation of the cottage is critical, if he can't afford to let the brothers drink wine and eat meat, how can he Chao Gai serve the public, and what do the brothers think of him.

In his opinion, with the help of geographical advantages, they are not even afraid of the official army, so why should they be afraid of the Su family in the south of the Yangtze River. Therefore, he asked people to follow the Su family's building boat from Xuzhou, and he didn't dare to make a move until he arrived in Jinxiang County, which can be said to have been planned for a long time.

However, after all, the Su family has a big business, and it is not easy to offend to death, so he let Miss Su come out to talk, just so that she can give herself enough face, and then take out the appropriate money, so that she can find a step down, as for wanting to hijack her building boat, it is just a threat. The maneuverability of the building boat is too poor, and it is not of great use to him Liang Shan, it is not as good as real money.

Timely.

Looking at the beautiful woman who came out of the cabin, Chao Gai, who was standing on a black canopy boat, asked loudly, "Is it Miss Su Wan of the Su family who came?" ”

Su Wan was about to answer, but Uncle Fang next to her whispered to her: "Miss, I have already asked the eighth child to go to the county town to ask for help, you and the thief will delay for some time, and when the official army comes, these thieves will naturally leave." ”

Hearing this, Su Wan nodded, and Chong Chao Gai replied: "I am Su Wan of the Su family in Yangzhou." I know very well that you and others are desperate poor and good people, and they do not want to fight with you with swords. Whatever you want, just say it, Su Wanzi will help you. ”

Chao Gai laughed a few times and said loudly: "I have heard for a long time that Miss Su is insightful in the world, and she is a famous person who has practiced human feelings, and when I saw it today, she really lived up to her reputation." We were indeed cornered by corrupt officials and corrupt officials, so we went up the mountain and fell into the grass. I told Miss Su directly, our cottage now has thousands of brothers to support, so the cost of this money is a bit big, and I hope Miss Su can fund one or two. ”

Su Wan thought for a moment and replied: "If you just want something yellow and white, then it's easy to say." But I didn't come out this time to do business, and I didn't bring much money, so I don't know how much you guys need? ”

Chao Gai touched his beard and said, "Since Miss Su is so knowledgeable about current affairs, then I am not hypocritical." Ten thousand taels! As long as Miss Su sponsors me to wait for 10,000 taels, then the Su family will be my friends in Liangshan in the future. ”

Su Wan went to Bianliang this time, one was to give away, and the other was for the affairs of the imperial merchants, how could he not bring a large amount of silver taels. However, she didn't want to have anything to do with the thief, 10,000 taels was not too much for her, but once it was given, the Su family would have a reputation as a "thief", which would have a huge impact on the business between the Su family and the government, so it was impossible for her to agree.

I only heard Su Wan say again: "10,000 taels is not much, but I am only traveling this time for fun, and the total amount of silver taels I brought is only seven or eight, but I can't take out 10,000 taels for the time being, so it's better to let me go to Bianliang first, I also have some friends in Bianliang, it should be easy to borrow tens of thousands of taels, and then send someone to send it to you, how about it?" ”

Chao Gai is also a shrewd figure, seeing Su Wan's words, it was expected that she was unwilling to pay, so she said coldly: "Since Miss Su didn't bring enough silver, then I have to invite Miss Su to my Shuibo Liangshan as a guest." When will you see Yinliang, and then send Miss Su out. ”

Chao Gai said with a wave of his hand, and the Liangshan people surrounding the building boat immediately began to throw hooks and ladders, preparing to board the building boat.

Su Wan didn't expect this group of thieves to be so direct, and her face was a little blue for a while.

Uncle Fang, who was burly on the side, said softly: "Miss, it's okay, leave it to me here, you go to stay with Miss Wang in the cabin, don't come out." ”

Xu Ziling, who had come out with Su Wan before, looked at her and said, "Miss Su, let Mingxia and them stay with you." ”

Su Wan glanced at him, turned around and went back to the cabin directly.

At this time, the Liangshan tribe, which was crowded with many people, began to climb the boat like ants.

In addition to the four Uncle Fang, the Su family also has more than forty guards on the ship, although their strength is not as good as Uncle Shang and others, but they are also much stronger than ordinary martial artists. At this time, the guards were distributed in the four corners of the ship, blocking the climb of the Liangshan tribes.

The people of Liangshan used hook locks and rope ladders with hook locks, threw them on the railing of the ship, hooked them, and climbed up the ladder.

In an instant, the first group to board the ship were all knocked into the water by the guards, but they were so watery that they threw themselves in the water a few times, and lined up again to start climbing the hook locks and rope ladders.

The guards tried to cut the ropes with their knives, but the ropes were of an unusual texture, and they kept cutting for a while, and with the constant climbing, they had to turn their attention to the people who were climbing up.

Xu Ziling was also bombarding the people who were climbing up with his fists, blasting them into the water one by one. was bombarding, and inadvertently saw several more small boats in the distance, with two people he knew on them.

Chao Gai, who was in control of the overall situation, also saw the small boat that came to support, and said happily: "Brother Zhang Heng and Zhang Shun, why are you here?" ”

Zhang Heng on the boat said: "Wu Junshi ordered my two brothers to come to assist Brother Chao Gai to ensure that nothing goes wrong. ”

Chao Gai laughed and was about to speak, but he heard Zhang Shun say in a deep voice: "Brother Chao Gai, that person is the murderer of Wang Ying and several others!" ”

Chao Gai followed his gaze and saw Xu Ziling, who was constantly punching at the bow of the ship, his face froze, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Then today can be described as killing two birds with one stone, which can not only solve the crisis of the cottage, but also avenge the Liu Tang brothers, it is really happy!" ”

The Zhang brothers hugged their fists and began to participate in the attack.

The head of the Su family was in charge of the overall situation, and at this time, Xu Ziling noticed the movements of Zhang Heng and the others, and reminded Uncle Fang: "Uncle Fang, pay attention to those two." ”

Uncle Fang's eyesight is naturally not comparable to Xu Ziling, he has long noticed Zhang Heng and Zhang Shun, and when he heard Xu Ziling's reminder, he just nodded lightly.

At this time, the fighting on the building boat reached a relative balance, the Liangshan tribe continued to climb up, the guards kept knocking them down, the Liangshan tribe relied on the large number of people to change people to rest, but the guards could not stop for a moment. Everyone knew that it wouldn't be long before the guards would be exhausted and their defenses would slip through.

Uncle Fang was not in a hurry, because as long as he could hold on for a while, the reinforcements from the government would arrive. However, the appearance of Zhang Shun and the others brought him a sense of crisis, he was not afraid of their strong attack, but he was afraid that they would make some small moves.

Sure enough, I saw Zhang Shun and Chao Gai say a few words, Chao Gai nodded, Zhang Shun and the two took some objects from the boat, jumped directly into the water, dived, and disappeared, maybe they were going to the bottom of the boat to do something.

Uncle Fang is well-informed, he has seen all kinds of wizards, I am really afraid that the two of them will gouge through the bottom of the ship. Immediately said loudly to Xu Ziling: "Xu boy, be sure to guard the deck!" I went and got the two water ghosts. ”

Xu Ziling comprehended, nodded and said, "Uncle Fang, don't worry, I will do my best to guard it." ”

Hearing this, Uncle Fang, who had never made a move, straightened his waist, and when he boarded, the bones of his whole body exploded, and his thick calves bent, and he jumped down the boat violently.

The people on the boat under the boat saw a huge black shadow smashed down above, only to hear a loud "bang", the boat was smashed into pieces, broken into a few pieces and slowly sank, and the people on the boat also fell into the water, but the black shadow that showed his face was a tear off a boat board, and stood on the undulating water surface on the boat board.

Before the Liangshan people on the surrounding boats could react, they saw that the big man's right arm was bent back in the shape of a bow, and then his fist burst into golden light. After gathering qi for three or five breaths, the big man hit the water with his big fist.

It is a trick to open the archer.

A large hole was blasted out of the water, and the body of water squeezed to both sides, suddenly turning up waves and knocking over several small boats. Zhang Heng and Zhang Shun, who were secretly swimming underwater, were subjected to the main force of the punch, and they both vomited blood in their mouths, their breath surged, and they had to swim out of the water to breathe.

The hole that was blasted out of the water instantly returned to its original state, and Zhang Shun and the others, who had floated to the surface, looked at the big man who stepped on the board of the boat with shocked faces.

Uncle Fang glanced at the two of them and said lightly: "You guys also have some skills, why don't you take the right path and become a thief?" “

Seeing that he did not take the opportunity to kill him, Zhang Heng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and replied: "The court is mediocre and incompetent, corrupt officials and corrupt officials are everywhere, the people are poor, and the people are struggling to make a living. Gongming's brother Gao Yi, we voluntarily sacrifice our lives to follow and do the right thing for heaven. ”

Uncle Fang sneered: "It's ridiculous, in the name of robbing the rich and helping the poor, the grand robbery of caravans is the way for you to do it for heaven?!" ”

The two were speechless.

Chao Gai, who was not far away, had seen Uncle Fang's movements before, and was afraid that Zhang Heng and the two would make a mistake, so he led people to surround Uncle Fang.

Uncle Fang squinted at Chao Gai and asked, "You are Chao Gai, who is known as the Heavenly King of Tota?" ”

Chao Gai stared at him tightly and said, "I heard that the leader of the Su family's guards, Fang Dasheng's martial arts, is transcendent, and I still heard it as a vain, but when I saw it today, it was really transcendent." If you have such martial arts, why are you willing to live under others and be a servant who cares for the house? ”

Uncle Fang snorted coldly and said, "You think I can't see your thoughts? After that, he stopped talking nonsense and flew towards the awning boat where Chao Gai was.

It turned out that Chao Gai saw that Uncle Fang was below, so he asked the Liangshan troops to launch an attack with all their might, and he led a team of men and horses to come over to contain Uncle Fang.

Seeing Uncle Fang leaping over, Chao Gai immediately abandoned the boat and jumped onto the boat next to him. Uncle Fang fell into the boat, and when he saw Chao Gai avoiding a fight, he was a little annoyed, and he condensed his fists and blasted towards him.

Seeing the golden qi, Chao Gai didn't dare to hold it up, and his hands were lucky to block it. Although Uncle Fang's fist was violent, it was too far away from Chao Gai, and it lost a lot of power, so Chao Gai easily took it with both hands.

Uncle Fang saw that the long-range attack could not work, so he jumped towards Chao Gai again. However, Chao Gai still avoided but did not fight, only dodging. This gave Uncle Fang quite a headache, he was not good at the law, and the river was not like on the land as he pleased, so he could only stand by boat, so Chao Gai's method of "the enemy advances and I retreat, and the enemy retreats and I advance" really stumped him, so he couldn't use his strength.

At this time, Xu Ziling on the ship was also under tremendous pressure. Not long after Uncle Fang jumped down, the attack of the Liangshan tribe suddenly became much more fierce, and the guards on the ship were tired of coping, and let people board the ship several times.

When Uncle Fang was entangled with Chao Gai, suddenly a few exclamations rang out. Several of the exhausted guards were grabbed by the Liangshan tribe and dragged into the river.

Countless Liangshan tribesmen swarmed up from the place guarded by those guards, and the scene was a little out of control for a while.
