Chapter 114 Heroes return from fighting tigers

There are two flowers, one on each branch. Let's talk about Qinghe County, Shandong.

One day in late October, Ximen Qingzheng was drinking and talking with Earl Ying, Dian'an and others in the first floor of Qinghe, when they suddenly heard a group of people coming in from the private seat next door, shouting and drinking and serving wine and food.

When Ximen Qing heard it, there was an old acquaintance inside, who was Chengle He'an from Qinghe County. I heard him ask eagerly: "Brother Di, as you said on the road, was the big insect on Jingyanggang really killed?" ”

Ximenqing is a guest of honor at the county magistrate's seat, and these county officials have long been dredged up by him and dealt with them, so they are very familiar with them.

This question, not only was there silence in the elegant seat for a while, but even Ximen Qing put down his chopsticks and pricked up his ears.

I only heard one person laugh a few times "hehe", but he didn't speak, just a sound of "snorting" and sucking, and then he smacked the wine with relish.

"Brother Di!" This time, the speaker was replaced by another acquaintance of Ximenqing, Ren Lianggui, the chief bookkeeper of Qinghe County, and his voice was full of pleading, "Good my brother Di!" Now that the dishes are all available and the wine is served, Brother Di, you will be merciful and tell you in detail about the tiger fight in Yanggu County! ”

Then I listened to a burst of gossip, and it turned out that there were also Xia Gongji, the secretary Qian Lao and others.

Brother Na Di was embarrassed to come, and secondly, he had already put up a shelf, so he poured himself another glass of wine, and took the opportunity to close the tent and said: "Hehe, since everyone has already talked about this, the younger brother can't help but know how to lift." Come and come, everyone put the wine glass up, the ancients drank with Hanshu, and today everyone drinks with this tiger deed, which is the envy of even the ancients! ”

It turned out that a good "Brother Di" next door was Cheng Di Sibin of Yanggu County, this person was born in Wuyang, Henan, who was rigid and square, and didn't want money, but it was a pity that he asked about things suddenly, and people called him Di Ming.

Today, I came to Qinghe County for a business business, and I brought a shocking private matter - the fierce insect on Jingyanggang a few days ago has been killed!

Listening to Na Di's voice full of excitement, even if he was separated by a layer of walls, he seemed to be able to see his eyebrows fluttering: "That day before dawn, there was a family member in the village under Jingyanggang who sent his family to the county yamen to deliver a letter, saying that the big insect on Jingyanggang had eaten a strong man who stood up to the sky and killed him!" At that time, our county magistrate was taken aback and asked, "Who can kill that big worm?" Who knew that Zhuang Ding, who reported the news, was a fool, babbling and couldn't say anything clearly! ”

"But don't be in a hurry!" Someone over there sighed, and Ximen Qing and they also glanced at each other, feeling that this word knew my heart deeply.

Di Chao patted the table and said, "It's extreme, it's extreme!" On that day, the magistrate of my family couldn't wait, so he sent his younger brother to run thirty miles with a few people to Jingyang Gangxia Village to meet the tiger heroes. When the younger brother entered the village, he heard that the hero was having breakfast, so he did not dare to disturb it, and went to see the dead tiger first, but he saw a large brocade cloth bag, and his eyes were close to the tiger's bed. Oops! It is said that the tiger is not dead, this is really not adulterated, little brother, when I saw it, I only felt a vicious breath rushing to my face, and I was suddenly bluffed so that my legs and feet were soft and numb! ”

There was silence for a while, and only after a while did someone sigh: "Such a fierce tiger! …… But I don't know what kind of character the tiger hero is? ”

Over there, Di Chaolian toasted, as if he wanted to borrow three liters of wine, and the courage to be intimidated by the dead tiger in his strong chest, when he heard someone ask about the tiger hero, his spirit was lifted, and he said: "Not long after, the tiger hero was full of wine and food, and he also came out to the front of the village." I stepped forward to salute, just such a look, I can't help but disrespect my heart. This hero is dignified, dignified and dignified, his arms are shaken apart, and he has thousands of pounds of strength, which goes without saying, the most rare thing is the humility of the people! “

"At that time, before and after the village, how many mouths were flattering him for eliminating harm for the countryside, and he was a great benevolent? But the tiger hero is just thanking - not the ability of a child, relying on the blessings of the people - such a meritorious and not proud character, how many have you and I seen throughout the ages? ”

Everyone praised it, this "thank you" is just a polite sentence in ordinary people's words, but out of the mouth of the strong man who just killed the tiger, he didn't see politeness, only his loyalty and integrity! If you are not a pure-hearted person, how can you do this?

In this compartment, Ximen Qing and Earl Ying looked at each other and nodded secretly.

I only heard Na Di mix and said: "At that time, the younger brother commanded, asked the tiger hero to wear a red satin, sat on a sedan chair, and was carried by four villagers, and then went to Yanggu County, picked a few more courageous, carried the dead tiger, and opened the way in front." “

"For a while, the entire county was already stirred, and I saw Naya with his shoulders folded, making a fuss, and congesting the streets and alleys, all of which came to see the big insects. Oops! It's the god of racing in the New Year's Festival, and it's not as lively as that day! ”

Someone patted his thigh and applauded happily: "Such admiration by thousands of people, but it is not in vain to live a lifetime!" ”

Na Di Chao sneered with "hehe": "I can't imagine that my brother's eyelids are so shallow, just a thousand empty alleys, and he will live you?" On that day, the little brother was serving in front of the saddle and behind the horse beside the tiger hero, and paid attention to the look on his face - although Rong Yao was present, there was no trace of frivolous joy! Everyone, please think that the dead can endure crying, although it is rare, but it is not a good ability; But after beating the tiger, he can endure laughter, and then he can see that he is truly broad-minded and heroic! ”

All the people in this side and there nodded silently.

Di Chao drank two more glasses, and suddenly said: "In the afternoon, the county magistrate will also raise the tiger hero, and I will go to support it!" ”

With that, he hurried away.

Earl Ying glanced at Ximenqing and said with a smile: "Dude, do you dare to go and see the tiger?" ”

Ximen Qing said: "It's okay." ”

So he asked the little guy to wait downstairs, and waited for the tiger hero to come over.

After a while, only the sound of gongs and drums could be heard, and everyone looked at it together. I saw a pair of hunters with tasseled spears, swinging over, followed by the tiger that had been killed, like a brocade bag, and the four of them could not lift it. At the end of a big white horse, there sat a strong man, the man who fought the tiger.

Ximenqing saw it, bit his fingers and said, "You said that such a person, if he doesn't have the strength of a thousand catties of buffalo, how can he move." "Here are three drinking evaluations, and they don't press the title.

How did this strong man usher in a single watch look like? But see:

The body is majestic, with a figure of more than seven feet; Broad-faced, twenty-four or five years old. The eyes are straight, and the distance looks like two stars; Holding both hands, it looks like a pair of iron spoons when you look closely. The toes fly, and the tigers and leopards in the deep mountains lose their souls; When the fighters fell, the poor valley bears were all lost. wears a headscarf with two silver flowers on the hairpin; Wearing a bloody jacket and a red brocade.

This person is none other than Wang Lun's brothers, Wu Erlang from Yanggu County. Just to come to find his brother, he accidentally killed this tiger, and was invited by the magistrate to come. The crowd watched as he ushered into the county.

But he said that at this time, it was the time when the magistrate was ascending to the hall, and Wu Song dismounted and went in, carrying a big insect in front of the hall. The magistrate saw Wu Song's appearance, and thought to himself: "How can you beat this tiger!" Then he called Wu Song to the hall.

See Bi, and tell the story of the tiger from beginning to end. The officials on both sides were stunned. The magistrate gave three glasses of wine in the hall, and gave Wu Song a reward of fifty taels from the cashiers of the local households in the treasury.

Wu Songyu said: "The villain relied on the blessing of the minister, and accidentally killed this big insect, it is not the ability of the villain, how dare to receive these rewards!" The hunters have been punished many times because of this beast, so why not scatter the reward to the people, and it will also appear to be the grace of the public. Zhixian said: "Since this is the case, let the strong man be punished." ”

Wu Song took the fifty taels of reward money and scattered it with the Orion Fu in the hall.

Seeing that he was benevolent and loyal, and that he was a good man, he had the heart to promote him, so he said: "Although you are from Yanggu County, you are only a stone's throw away from me, Qinghe County." Today, I will join you to be a patrol leader in my county, specializing in catching thieves in the east and west of the river, what do you think? ”

Wu Song knelt down and thanked: "If you are lifted by grace, the villain will be blessed for life." ”

The magistrate immediately called the detention division to set up a copy, and on the same day, he joined Wu Song to patrol the capital.

All the elders came to congratulate Wu Song and ate wine for several days. was about to go back to Yanggu County to find his brother, but unexpectedly he became the head of Qinghe County again, but he was also happy. At that time, it was rumored that Dongping was a prefecture and two counties, and they all knew the name of Wu Song. Precisely:

The strong man is a hero and walks straight to Jingyanggang. Drunk to kill the tiger in the mountain, since then the fame has spread everywhere.
