Huangyaling, Song Jiang has been treated as a guest every day since he got Dong Ping's input. He was born noble and strong in martial arts, so he had a good appearance, but he was a good helper that Song Jiang dreamed of. And correspondingly, Hua Rong, who usually leans on his arm, slowly lost his effect in his eyes.

Since Chao Gai and Wu Yong left Qingzhou, Hua Rong said a few fair words because of his righteousness at that time, and he became more and more incompatible with Song Jiang's "brothers" in the future. Although Song Jiang didn't like him, none of the shrimp soldiers and crabs under his command would be useful, and he still used Hua Rong at a critical time, so he had been enveloping him on the surface. And Dong Ping's arrival gave him a new reliance, so this "good brother" in the past immediately became dispensable.

Coincidentally, these two new and old masters suddenly met on this day, and there was a lot of turmoil.

Speaking of this, Dong Ping has stood out from the crowd compared to Wang Ying, Zhou Tong, Qiu Xiaoyi, Cui Daocheng and others, and they have exchanged with each other for a few days, and there is no enemy of Shihe, so he is even more arrogant, and Song Jiang, as the boss, is naturally more surprised.

Hua Rong did not participate in these farces, in fact, his heart also wished that there was a replacement for him, over the years, he had received letters from the family members of Liangshan Manor through some hidden channels, and his heart had long been full of yearning for that place, especially after staying in the smoky environment of Erlong Mountain for a long time, he had deep doubts about his original choice in his heart. After Dong Ping's arrival, Song Jiang's attitude changed obviously, and he lamented that his snobbery was more of a relief, a kind of relief after the benevolence and righteousness were exhausted. Therefore, he didn't pay attention to the flattery of those people in the village to Dong Ping in recent days, but just watched coldly.

On this day, Hua Rong left the residence early and went to the top of the mountain road for morning exercises. But when he was halfway there, he heard a woman's frightened cry from the tree next to him, and when he heard it, it looked like the landlord's daughter Liu'er, so he thought that Wang Yingzhi and his ilk must be doing evil again, and immediately rushed over in a few steps, but the scene in front of him surprised him greatly, the violent man turned out to be Song Jiang's new favorite Dong Ping.

"It is really despicable that Dong Du, a dignified court official and a self-proclaimed hero, has done some unbearable things!"

Hua Rong stood on one side and said coldly.

And Dong Ping climbed the mountain this morning, and met Liu Er, who returned from picking vegetables, and was immediately attracted by this good-looking mountain girl. I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but I didn't take it to heart. He said with a grimace:

"Hey, hey! A little lady in the township, it doesn't matter if it's just playing, just don't see it. ”

"I don't know what others do, but I can't see it, hurry up and let go of my hands, don't stain my eyes again."

Hua Rong saw that Dong Ping was in such a situation, and he was still brazenly holding Na Liu'er's hand, and couldn't help but become stern.

After all, Dong Ping did something unseemly, so he angrily pushed Liu Er to the ground, and said coldly, "Your kid is a saint, the master wrote it down first", and then walked away. But Hua Rong underestimated the shamelessness of this guy, and not long after he sent Liu Er home, Song Jiang sent a matchmaker to arrive, saying that he was here for Dong Dujian to propose his relatives.

"Straight lady thief, there are still such shameless scum in the world!"

Hua Rong looked at the father and daughter of Liu'er who came to the door crying, thinking of the sanctimonious guy, he couldn't help but feel nauseous, he scolded angrily, came to the courtyard, and bombed back the two men who came to propose marriage, and then said to the two:

"Don't worry, as long as I, Huarong, am here, I will definitely keep your father and daughter safe."

Only one noon later, Kong Liang came to the door and said that Song Jiang was invited. Hua Rong was also accumulating anger and wanted to vent with him, so he immediately followed.

"Brother Xian hasn't come to talk to my brother lately, it's not that I've had a big fight, and you and I can't talk about it, so let others laugh at it for nothing."

When Song Jiang saw Hua Rong coming in, he immediately got up to greet him with a smile on his face, but he pretended to complain and said a lie.

"How dare the little brother be angry with his brother, it's just that I don't dare to disturb you when I see that you have been busy recently, but today I still hope that my brother will be in charge."

Hua Rong saw Song Jiang smiling with a false smile, and his heart was already nauseous, but he still picked out the topic without changing his face.

"If the virtuous brother has something to say, why hide it." Song Jiang looked unusually generous.

"There is a scum in our village, this morning in the mountains want to rape the people's daughter, just by me bumped into, originally also read the people of one of the villages, so he also let him go, who knows that this guy is not shameless, but through the name of his brother, he grandly seeks to marry the people's daughter's family, if these villains are not removed, I am afraid that my brother's prestige, the atmosphere in the village, will be corrupted in the future."

"I think the virtuous brother misunderstood, and the Dong Dujian also told me in the morning, saying that he met a beautiful woman on the way and fell in love, and when the two were talking, they were met by you, but there was a misunderstanding. The elder brother thought that since the two of them were in love with each other, they might as well accomplish a good thing, so he went to talk to the matchmaker, thinking that the virtuous brother would make a hindrance from it, but now it sounds like it was caused by a misunderstanding. ”

This Song Jiang actually didn't know that Dong Ping had done that dirty thing, but in his heart, the weight of a people's girl was as good as Dong Ping, so he ignored Hua Rong's words, and instead played a round for Dong Ping.

"Although my Huarong people are stupid, but my eyes are not blind, I can still see those despicable ugly deeds in broad daylight, if my brother is inconvenient to speak, but the younger brother will come out, although I am ordinary in martial arts, but I have to protect the safety of the father and daughter of the Liu family with a life."

Hua Rong saw that Song Jiang was pretending to be confused, and his heart was furious, he put down a cruel word, got up and was about to walk out.

"Brother Xian stays! If you are in a hurry, you can't talk about it slowly. ”

Song Jiang was annoyed when he saw that Hua Rong didn't take him seriously for an irrelevant folk girl, but he was worried that he would go out and have trouble with Dong Ping, so he hurriedly stopped him.

"Brother Xian, it is an eventful autumn now, the smoke and dust everywhere in the world, and it is also the time for a good man to make meritorious contributions to the country, but it is a pity that the strength in our village is limited and it is difficult to make great achievements. Dong Dujian has a skill, and what is even more rare is that he is like-minded with us, and my brother thinks that everyone should do a big career wholeheartedly, and don't ruin the brotherhood because of trivial things. is that village woman, if Dong Dujian sees it, it is also her blessing to marry her, so why spoil her good deeds. ”

Song Jiang's words were "serious and long-hearted", but Hua Rong was disappointed when he heard it, and instantly understood that what "timely rain" and "call for righteousness" were all fake benevolence and false righteousness, and the only trace of affection for this "brother" in his heart was completely gone, and for a while, his mood was calm

A lot, so he replied lightly:

"If that Liu Er is willing to marry someone surnamed Dong, he will naturally not be bored with himself, if not, I Huarong will also do what I say."

After saying a few words, Hua Rong brushed his sleeves and wanted to leave. Song Jiang held back his anger and kept him, only saying that the two brothers hadn't gotten together for a long time, and they just had two drinks together today. Hua Rong was forced to be helpless, thinking in his heart, so he took it as a break bar, so he also sat down. The words are not speculative, and the natural drinking is also tasteless, during which Hua Rong wanted to stop the cup several times to say goodbye, but was repeatedly retained by Song Jiang, and it was delayed until dinner time, and Hua Rong got out and left.

The cold air in the mountains on a winter night was pressing, and Hua Rong had never drunk too much, and he was already awake when he came out to be blown by the cold wind. The place where he lived was only a hundred steps away, but after a while, he reached the front of the courtyard, only to find that it was full of people, and the voice of anger kept coming out. Hua Rong immediately had an ominous premonition in his heart, he hurriedly took three steps and made two steps to squeeze in, and then he saw a tragic scene that he would never forget.

The landlord, the simple old man, had half of his neck cut off, and he fell to the door on the right, and on the pit inside, Liu Er died naked and covered in blood.

Hua Rong only felt a loud "buzz" in his head for a moment, and then his stomach turned upside down, and he immediately vomited the afternoon wine and food.

"Dong Ping thief - the master swears not to stop with you!"

Hua Rong raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, rushed into the left wing, picked up the spear and ran towards Dong Ping's residence with a bow and arrow on his back. In a moment he hurried to the place, but there was no one there, he was furious and opened his bow and shot angrily, and in a moment, he saw the arrow leave a murderous word "kill" on the door panel, and then turned around in front of everyone.

Song Jiang's residence, when Hua Rong came angrily, he was greeted by the cold faces of the two brothers, Kong Ming and Kong Liang.

"My master is drunk and bedridden, and I know that I will see you tomorrow if I have something to do?"

"Human life is at stake, you have to see it!"

Hua Rong was willing to agree, he stared at the Kong brothers with a pair of blood-red eyes, and shouted viciously.

"Zhizhai is this going to be strong! You still have my brother in your eyes! ”

I saw Kong Ming shouting sharply, and then dozens of heavily armed minions surrounded him.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Hua Rong instantly understood that the afternoon hospitality was simply a trap, and the Song Heizi, who was full of benevolence and morality, was the villain with an obscene and murderous human face and beast heart - Dong Ping's real accomplice. It's just a pity that he still drank a glass of severance wine with him for the last trace of affection, but he didn't know that people had already cut him off in his heart.

"Hah! Ha! Ha! What kind of benevolence, righteousness and morality, it turns out that it is all a raccoon dog, but I can only hate my Huarong for being blind for several years! ”

Hua Rong looked up to the sky and laughed, and suddenly a burst of tears came out of his eyes, and he didn't know whether it was sadness and anger, or guilt, sadness, or relief...... Then he slowly turned around with a body of exhaustion and a sense of loss.

It was night, Hua Song sat in that courtyard for a long time, and it was not until the cold dew soaked his whole body that he slowly stood up.

In the middle of the night, a dilapidated house on the Yellow Cliff Ridge was on fire, and soon after, on the flickering light and darkness of the mountain road, a horse, a gun and a bow, and a lonely figure was lonely.
