Early the next morning, the personnel of the Civil Affairs Office and the heads of the villages entered the houses in the back mountain, and then the news that the court and the government were coming to destroy the happy life of the manor quickly spread all over the back mountain, and the people who had just lived a good life immediately burst out with great enthusiasm after the initial panic, and devoted themselves to the protection of the manor, especially the weapons workshop and the infrastructure department, and the people who took the initiative to help were endless.

Gu Haotian and Wen Huanzhang came to the teaching team early, the group of members two months ago had completed their training, and the group of leaders from Jiangzhou had also been training for a period of time, and they just took this opportunity to set up the sixth and seventh battalions of sailors. Li Jun and Zhang Shun were appointed commanders of the two battalions, and the rest of them were also assigned to various posts according to the original arrangement. Only Li Li was going to top Xue Can to go to the sixth battalion of the infantry army, but now that the six battalions have all gone to Yinmachuan, he has nowhere to go for a while, so Gu Haotian asked him to go to the intelligence department first, and let him be transferred to Di Cheng of the Jeju Poison Dragon Gang at an appropriate time in the future.

After arranging all the necessary matters, in the afternoon of the same day, Gu Haotian took Xiao Jiasui, Bian Xiang, Pang Wanchun, Gu Bo, Yang Zaixing and the men of the personal guards to follow Ma Ling and Fei Bao's fleet north to Qingzhou. When the boat arrived in Zouping, Gu Haotian and his entourage made it convenient for Du Qian and Ma Ling to break up and go to Qingzhou. At such a sensitive time, Gu Haotian insisted on coming to Qingzhou, mainly for two purposes, first of all, Qingzhou has several tiger generals he is optimistic about, such as Qin Ming, Hua Rong, Huang Xin, etc., and secondly, he wants to find someone in Qingzhou City, a famous anti-gold general in Chinese history, and more importantly, he has a very outstanding son, I hope he is still in the city at this time.

It is said that since there were enough horses in the manor, the guard battalion was first equipped with horses, so after going ashore, everyone rode all the way and arrived at Jinling Town in a few days. Under the management of Zhuang Mingli, the business of the Wu family iron company is booming, and the manor is very positive about this person's ability. After explaining to Zhuang Mingli, Zhao De, Sha Santie and others, Gu Bo led his personal guards to stay in Jinling Town, and everyone continued to travel eastward, heading straight to Qingzhou City.

And say that the south of Qingzhou city sixty or seventy miles, there is a key place, called Qingfeng Town, here is choked in a three-way intersection, and these three roads lead to the surrounding three cottages, respectively called Qingfeng Mountain, Erlong Mountain, Peach Blossom Mountain, for this reason the government set up a soldier village in Qingfeng Town, slowly gathered around the village of three or five thousand households, this village is also called Qingfeng Village.

When Gu Haotian and the others arrived at Qingfeng Village, it was the end of August, and it was the crisp season of autumn. Everyone greeted an official road and walked slowly, suddenly heard a burst of geese chirping overhead, looked up, and saw a line of geese heading south.

"Brother Pang, it's the season of wild goose fat, hurry up and shoot two of them, just in time to drink in the town ahead."

Bian Xiang saw that there was a master of archery in his company, so he hurriedly picked up the road.

Pang Wanchun saw that he couldn't help but itch, and when he saw that everyone was looking forward to it, he opened his bow and shot it in the air. However, by coincidence, at this time, I saw a long arrow flying out not far ahead. Suddenly, I saw a chaotic array of geese, and after a few sorrowful screams, several geese fell straight down.

"Huh!"

Pang Wanchun screamed in surprise, he boasted that his archery skills were unparalleled, and he thought that there was an opponent here. Gu Haotian had already thought of someone, and he brought Pang Wanchun out this time, so he had the intention of letting the two of them meet.

However, it wouldn't have happened so coincidentally, when Gu Haotian was hesitating, Yang Zaixing had already excitedly led people towards the place where the geese fell.

After a while, I saw a number of horsemen coming over in a hurry, and Yang Zaixing was running in front of him, but it was a young general of twenty-seven or eight, and he saw that he had sword eyebrows and handsome eyes, red lips and white teeth, holding a silver spear in his hand, a longbow at his waist, and a silver helmet and silver armor riding on a treasure horse of a divine horse, and he was extremely heroic.

Sure enough, a character who stands out! If this person were not Hua Rong, there would be no one else, Gu Haotian secretly admired in his heart.

In an instant, those riders swept up to him like the wind.

"This is Brother Pang Wanchun! The Nine Heavens Flying Dragon really lives up to its name! ”

The young general had obviously heard from Yang Zaixing about the person who was shooting the geese, and when he came to see Pang Wanchun still holding a longbow in his hand, a pair of eyes stared straight at him.

"It's down, if you don't guess wrong, it must be Xiao Li Guanghuarong."

Pang Wanchun also guessed the identity of the other party, because along the way, Gu Haotian had talked to everyone about the purpose of this trip and the heroes of Qingzhou, so he knew that there was no one else in front of him.

"The North and the South Divine Shooting actually met in such a magical way, and it will become a good story when it will be introduced to the rivers and lakes in the future."

Gu Haotian couldn't imagine that the two archers would meet in such a way, and couldn't help but praise them.

It is said that Hua Rong had nothing to do today, and took a few subordinates out for a walk, and happened to see the geese in the sky, and his hands were itchy, but he didn't expect to lead to such a heroic figure. At this time, I saw several people standing next to Pang Wanchun, all of them extraordinary, and I was even more curious. When the young man who was waiting to listen was the Jingdong legend Jade Mian Meng Gu Haotian, he couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly jumped off the horse and saluted and confessed his guilt.

Then everyone met one by one, and at the invitation of Hua Rong, the group entered a tavern in the village, and between the cups, both sides became good brothers who hated each other.

After three rounds of drinking, Hua Rong asked about one of his elder brothers, Song Jiang, who was the secretary of Yuncheng County, and heard that he killed a prostitute a few days ago.

Since Gu Haotian met him, he knew that there would be this question, so he said it impartially, and said: "That Yan Po cherishes a misbehaving sister, it is really not a pity to die, but that Tang Niuer went to prison for no reason, and he was really wronged, and then his father begged me somehow, and I saw that his father and son were really pitiful, so I invited the neighbor to the yamen to bail him out." ”

"If Tang Niu'er has no one to say anything, he will not kill his head for the crime, but also assassinate the remote military states, although this person has a low status, but after all, he has a human life, and he thinks that Song Zhisi did something inappropriate, and he is really stigmatized."

Xiao Jiasui knew Gu Haotian's thoughts, so he said lightly on the side.

Hua Rong listened to what the two said, and thought in his heart, this Brother Song left Tang Niu'er alone, but it was not a hero's doing, so it was very difficult to think about it.

After that, a few people ate until the evening, Gu Haotian and others were about to say goodbye and leave, but Hua Rong stayed hard, a few people had no choice but to stay for a night, and a few people went to Hua's house to sit that night, but Hua Rong called out his wife and daughter, and his little sister to come to see each other, but he treated everyone as confidants.

Early in the morning of the second day, Gu Haotian and others left for leave, Pang Wanchun and Hua Rong sympathized with each other, and repeatedly invited him to see Liangshan again, Hua Rong agreed, and sent ten miles to say goodbye, but it was also a coincidence, not long after he returned home, there was a guest, who was the brother Song Jiang who was often thought of in the past two days.

Let's say that after Song Jiang entered the ground in Qingzhou, he suffered a disaster in Qingfeng Mountain, but because of this, he got acquainted with Yan Shun, Zheng Tianshou, and Wang Ying, and took the opportunity to rescue an official's relatives.

Hua Rong couldn't help but be overjoyed when she saw Song Jiang, and hurriedly welcomed her into the house to sit down, and after listening to Song Jiang's experience, she said:

"The younger brother heard a few days ago that my brother killed a lowly prostitute, and was affected, and I wrote to inquire about the news for several days, but there was no reply.

Song Jiang naturally wouldn't blow up his shortcomings, he chose some murderous clips to talk about, and then asked:

"Brother said that I met a few brothers from Jeju yesterday, but who are they?"

"It's the jade-faced Meng tasted Gu Haotian, and there are nine heavenly flying dragons, Pang Wanchun, etc., all of whom are heroes for a while."

Song Jiang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, how could that kid come to Qingzhou and get acquainted with his brother, and the two sides seemed to have a good relationship, so he suddenly became vigilant, and asked:

"What did the man say?"

"I told me what happened, and I understood it a little bit."

Then Hua Rong relayed what he heard, but Song Jiang heard it but had nothing to refute, because Gu Haotian didn't say a single extra word at all, but he felt even more uncomfortable in his heart.

"Gu Haotian's reputation is not bad, but brother, you must not have a deep friendship with him."

Hua Rong was stunned for a moment when he heard this, that little official doesn't look like a bad person! Besides, a wise man like Xiao Jiasui is willing to follow him, how can this brother talk like this! He couldn't help but look at Song Jiang suspiciously. "Although this person has deceived some celebrities in the rivers and lakes, he is a traitorous and rebellious person."

Song Jiang then put the firewood into the village, and Master Wang heard the matter, and said it with added fuel and vinegar.

"Such a rebellious person will not be tolerated by the imperial court sooner or later, and the virtuous brother should be careful to beware."

Hua Rong was stunned when he heard this, relieving the heroes in the rivers and lakes and helping the heroes in distress, isn't it usually this brother's preference? What did you say today? Besides, just now he said that the three mountain bandits of Qingfeng Mountain were unparalleled in righteousness, so he couldn't help but ask suspiciously:

"Little brother heard that the 100,000 forbidden army is a hero at the head of the Lin Sect, but Gao Yu has a very bad reputation, and the ancient junior officials took him in, should he be chivalrous?"

"Virtuous brother! That Lin Chong has his own court judgment on right and wrong, how can he Gu Haotian and a commoner interfere with the judgment of the government, and like the robbery of the law field in Yanggu County, if he acts like this, the world will not be in chaos! ”

Song Jiangquan didn't expect that he was also a person who evaded justice, but instead pointed at others with dignity. Hua Rong was stunned when she heard this, and suddenly felt that this brother, known as "Timely Rain", had become a little strange.

At that moment, Hua Rong stopped talking, and when the family came out to meet, he ordered the wine to catch the wind. Song Jiang was stunned when he heard this, thinking that he had already entered his heart, and couldn't help but be secretly proud, so he stayed in peace.

For the next three or five days, Song Jiang was accompanied by Hua Rong or his subordinates to play freely in Qingfeng Village.

On this day, Song Jiang and a subordinate of the Hua family came to a grand place, which was the yamen of Liu Gao, the Zhizhai of Qingfeng Village. He suddenly remembered that when he was in Qingfeng Mountain, he had saved Liu Gao's wife, and at this time he happened to take the opportunity to make friends, and he ignored the fact that the people repeatedly said that Hua and Liu were not in harmony and should not see each other, so they only went back and forth in front of the yamen and did not want to leave.

At this time, Mrs. Liu came back from going out, and saw a black man in front of the door in the sedan chair, and recognized at a glance that it was the bandit she met in Qingfeng Mountain that day.

This Liu Zhizhai's wife was robbed before, and he didn't know if he had been humiliated, and he had nowhere to go out in one breath, when he heard that the bandits sent him to the door, he was willing to let it go, and immediately people took it without saying anything.

Hua Rong listened to the report of his subordinates, and his opponent took his good brother, but he was willing to take a break there, and immediately ordered soldiers and horses to break into Liu Gao's yamen, and snatched Song Jiang back, but he also planted a curse for himself.

Let's say that after Song Jiang returned to Hua's house, the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, thinking that although Hua Rong was strong, Liu Gao was the master of a village after all, and he was still a fugitive, if Liu Gao reported this matter to the Qingzhou Mansion, what should he do at that time? I didn't dare to stay in Hua's house anymore, so I excused myself and said that staying any longer would inevitably make the two village owners discordant, so it was better to leave first.

Hua Rong saw that Song Jiang had made up his mind, and it was difficult to stay anymore, so he had to let him go.
