The eight-character yamen is open to the south, and there is no reason to come in without money.

Song Qing, who entered the prison cell, was not easy to make money, and under the instigation of the two Zhao Dutou, the magistrate showed a rare iron face. Song Qing was beaten to the point that his skin was broken, and he finally couldn't stand the torture, and confessed that he had correspondence with Song Jiang privately, and the rest of the family didn't know about it.

Zhao Neng Zhao Demei waited for the Song family to come and send the silver again, and the severity of the judgment could be given to the silver, and the magistrate was even more Meizizi waiting, the Song family would definitely send the silver, and the key was to catch the thief who had an affair with Qingfeng Mountain, this is a political achievement!

When Song Jiang heard the news of Zhang Gui's report, he immediately called Yan Shun and Zhu Wu. Yan Shun immediately shouted to lead his troops to rescue Song Qing, and Zhu Wu said that he should not act recklessly, but must think of a perfect plan.

Song Jiang also calmed down, and he said calmly: "If you lead troops to rescue, the crime of gangsterry will be confirmed, and Qingfeng Mountain will be exposed to the vision of the imperial court, which is similar to taking chestnuts in the fire, this is a helpless move, unless they want to kill Song Qing." ”

Seeing that the two of them nodded, he said again: "For today's plan, we will first make things up and down, and make things smaller, and how to rescue them depends on the specific situation." It was not appropriate for me to go to Yuncheng to dredge, and the brothers accidentally fell into it. Now I ask Staff Officer Zhu to come out and help my father make up his mind, I don't know what to do? ”

Zhu Wu readily agreed, and took Zhang Gui and others to Yuncheng.

The result of all efforts was: Song Qing thorn with Jiangzhou.

Song Jiang smiled bitterly, fate always joked with himself, it seems that the people of the Song family can't escape the doom of being assassinated in Jiangzhou. It should be himself, and now the god has replaced him with his younger brother, it seems that the trip to Jiangzhou Song Jiang is indispensable, in order to make friends with the heroes of Jiangzhou rivers and lakes, and also to pave a smooth road for his younger brother.

Qingfeng Mountain is quite stable now, and they should be able to pick up this burden after they go to Jiangzhou. After everything was explained clearly at the meeting, Zhang Gui took a few people to Yuncheng to take care of Song Tai's public security, and Song Jiang took Hua Chen, Hua Ziwei, and Xue Yong to Liangshanbo.

There are three purposes for this trip: one is to get together with old friends. The second is the brother who is waiting for the assassination in Liangshanbo, if he is willing to fall into the grass, let him stay in Liangshanbo. Third, he had no choice but to beg Wu Yongxiu, who knew Dai Zong in Jiangzhou Prison Camp, to take care of Song Qing.

His younger brother himself knows his temperament best, and he can't pull the nine cows if he is stubborn, and he will not agree to the matter of falling grass, and it seems that the trip to Liangshanbo is very likely to have no second purpose.

The hotel at Lijiadaokou is the eye of Liangshanbo, and the shopkeeper in charge of this eye is called Zhu Gui of the dry land, and only when he sees him can he knock on the door to enter Liangshanbo.

Song Jiang and the others entered the hotel at the entrance of the Li family, and Xiao Er's warm welcome mantra immediately popped out of his mouth: "Are the guest officers sharpening or staying in the hotel?" We have excellent beef and home-brewed liquor, which is guaranteed to satisfy a few people! ”

As he spoke, he took down the tablecloth on his shoulder, diligently brushed off the dust on the table and stool, quickly took the tea bowl and poured the tea, and said enthusiastically again: "A few guest officers have been in the dust all the way, drink hot tea first to moisten their throats, and the wine and food will be good immediately!" ”

"Xiao Er, the shopkeeper of this store is called Zhu Guizhu, the shopkeeper of the dry land?"

Xiao Er's enthusiasm did not exchange for the praise of the guests, but in exchange for a headless question, a thought popped up in his mind: "Are these four people here to seek revenge?" ”

Xiao Er raised his head and carefully looked at Song Jiang and the other three who were questioning, although they did not find any malicious intent, but they became more cautious. His eyes rolled and he asked, "Does the guest officer know the shopkeeper Zhu?" ”

"It's just famous, never met!"

Song Jiang arched his hand and said: "Trouble Xiao Er, please come out of the shopkeeper Zhu, there is something important to see the shopkeeper Zhu!" ”

"It's really unfortunate that Shopkeeper Zhu hasn't returned from going out this morning. If the guest officer is not in a hurry, he will sit here and wait, and maybe he will come back the next moment! ”

The alert Xiao Er first stabilized Song Jiang, and then shouted: "There are guests arriving, start the stove in the back hall and prepare the meal!" ”

I don't know if this sentence is a code, a person came in from the back after a while, this person is tall and burly, with a Chinese face, three yellow beards, after coming in, he just looked at Song Jiang and the others a few times casually, and then said to Xiao'er: "What meals do the guests want to eat?" ”

Xiao Er said: "The guest said that he had something important to do with the shopkeeper, and he had not yet reported the name of the dish." ”

The man was slightly annoyed and said: "You didn't order, what are you shouting about, be careful when the shopkeeper comes to me to sue you!" ”

Song Jiang couldn't help but want to laugh, Zhu Gui didn't insult the nickname of the dry land and the law, this camouflage level was really like a crocodile, if he hadn't paid attention to his gaze that wanted to see through his identity and money bag, he would have really been prevaricated by him.

Song Jiang didn't want to be verbose, so he went straight to the point and asked, "Do you want to come here, this is Zhu Guizhu's shopkeeper?" ”

Zhu Gui was stunned for a moment, looked at Song Jiang again, and couldn't help but be suspicious. In the past, he figured out the identity of the guests from his facial expressions and clothing, but today he couldn't see the slightest, and seeing that the other party did not show malicious intent, he returned the salute and said: "It's down, brother's eyes, I don't know which way you are heroes?" ”

"In Song Jiang, Xiayun City, I have something to ask to see King Chao."

Song Jiang arched his hand and said, "I hope Brother Zhu will introduce you!" ”

After Zhu Gui said "oops", he bowed down and said: "This is really a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, and the family doesn't know the family!" Liang Shanbo's brothers and Chao Tianwang have been talking about Brother Song Gongming, and they have never met, and today is very fortunate! ”

Song Jiang helped Zhu Gui up and said, "There is an urgent matter to bother the brothers!" ”

After Zhu Gui got up, he hurriedly shouted to drink Xiao Er's tea and wine, and when he settled down, he arched his hand and said: "Brother Gongming has an urgent matter, and my brother doesn't stay much, my brother will rest for a while, I will call the boat!" ”

So saying, he took a magpie bow from the wall, opened the window of the water pavilion, and drew the bow and shot an arrow through the window into the harbor across the lake. The arrow, like a frightened kingfisher, whistled into the reeds and disappeared.

Song Jiang saw that it was exactly the same as described in "Water Margin", Hua Ziwei was puzzled, and asked Song Jiang with her eyes, and Song Jiang explained: "This is an arrow, and what is sent out is an order, and the people on the other side will shake the boat over when they hear the sound of the arrow." ”

Sure enough, in a moment, two clippers came out of the reeds. Zhu Gui whispered a few words to a boatman, and the man rocked the boat and went quickly, and Song Jiang expected that he was going to report to Chao Gai.

The people got on the boat and sailed to the depths of the water. Song Jiang saw that the reeds in the water pool were dense and continuous; The trees on the mountain are lush and strange; The mountains are lined with huge waves, the water is connected to the sky, and the eight hundred miles of water are boundless, and it really lives up to its name.

There are countless lakes and harbors in the meantime, like a natural barrier, if you train an elite navy, fighting with the imperial court navy is like playing with a child, ensuring that he has no comings and goings.

At this time, Song Jiang couldn't help but think of the little soldier Zhang Ga, who and the guerrillas took advantage of the natural advantages of the water area to give the little devil a nervous headache.

Under the leadership of the party, the anti-Japanese armed "Yanling Team" in Baiyangdian took advantage of the powerful terrain of the reeds and ravines in the Baiyangdian area to carry out mobile and flexible guerrilla warfare, defeat the strong with the weak, and severely attack the Japanese invaders...... These 800 miles of Liangshan Bo is a meat grinder on the water, and how many enemies come are ground into minced pieces to feed fish and shrimp.

In return, Chao Gai personally led Wu Yong, Gongsun Sheng, Lin Chong, Liu Tang, Ruan Xiaoer, Ruan Xiaowu, Ruan Xiaoqi, Du Qian, Song Wan, and Bai Sheng to come to Jinsha Beach to greet him.

The brothers were overjoyed to see each other, Chao Gai took Song Jiang's hand and walked all the way to the Juyi Hall. Chao Gai ordered a big feast, and the Juyi Hall was lively and full of joy.

Chao Gai talked endlessly about Song Jiang's righteous report and saved the lives of seven of his brothers, and the rest of them never forgot it. Song Jiang said a few words modestly, and then told him about his family's experience and recent situation, and he said to Chao Gai: "Liangshanbo is the only way from Yuncheng to Jiangzhou, I want to invite my brother Song Qing to Liangshanbo to talk about it!" ”

Liu Tang immediately shouted: "This is easy, wouldn't it be happy to kill the tolerance to come to Liangshanbo and live with the brothers!" ”

Song Jiang hurriedly said: "No! Don't kill the tolerance first, wait until Song Qing is robbed up the mountain, and see what he thinks! ”

Chao Gai agreed, and told the spies to inquire about the news, and then the brothers did not talk about it again, and dissolved all their feelings into the wine.

This was the case for days. During a drink, Song Jiang said that he once pretended to be a good man in Liangshan Bo to make trouble in Qingfeng Village and killed Liu Gao, the Zhizhai, and apologized for this.

Chao Gai said that it didn't matter, just to make a name for us. Song Jiang also talked about the development of Qingfeng Mountain, hoping that Shuibo would also develop its own natural advantages and develop more in animal husbandry and fishery, but it was only a suggestion.

Chao Gai said that he and Wu Yong totaled, and said that Song Jiang would lead the people to Liangshanbo, and the two brothers would work together to resist the enemy. Song Jiang said that Qingzhou's industry has started and has a good momentum of development, and he will not consider joining forces for the time being, but if the form is forced, he will definitely defect to Liangshanbo.
