When bidding farewell to the Hu brothers and sisters, Xiao Tang saw Hu Sanniang with a smile and a soft tone, and her words were modest but generous, and her gestures finally showed a heroic spirit again. Xiao Tang was also very relieved to see it, but although the relationship between the two was no longer very awkward, when Xiao Tang said goodbye, Xiao Tang saw that Hu Sanniang wanted to speak several times, as if he wanted to say something but it was inconvenient to speak.

Early the next morning, Xiao Tang successively said goodbye to Xiao An, Ye Chun, Xu Wen and other stewards who took care of the business in Banqiao Town, Mizhou, as well as brothers such as Ruan Sanxiong, Zhang Shun and Zhang Rong on the islands outside the town. Since Xiao Tang still has a few important things to do in Hedong and Shandong, Ruan Xiaoqi, Zhang Shun and other brothers must do the waterway to respond, and they will be able to act with Xiao Tang in a while. As for the little white dragon Zhang Rong walked with Xiao Tang on Shamen Island, and saw his brother sit down to kill the evil officials and murderers, rescue the fallen Zhongliang and many other things, which also taught Zhang Rong, who was new to the rivers and lakes, to engrave his bones, and also deeply understand that the heroes who gather together are different from ordinary green forest bandits, Zhang Rong not only yearns for it, but also probably can realize what his principles and bottom line should be when he knows what to do.

After all the things, Xiao Tang, Xiao Jiasui and more than 30 relatives set off on the road. The northwest of Mizhou is adjacent to Qingzhou, and it is a few days to travel, Xiao Tang passed through Linqu, Yidu and other county seats, and entered the boundary of Erlong Mountain, where the green mountains are steep and the distant water is clear.

Xiao Tang and the others walked another three or five miles, although they were getting closer and closer to the first village in Shandong's green forest, but the villages and courtyards around the official road were becoming more and more lively. There are flocks of geese and ducks in several wheat fields, and there are also farmers and farmers working in the fields. Xiao Tang also knew that there was no inspection department and military village set up by the government around, so he found a secluded place, and after a fine personal entourage reported that there were no others around, he took out the badge mask from his bag and put it on his face.

Although the name of Ren Xia Xiao Tang is loud, the villagers in the countryside have never seen it, but after Xiao Tang covered his face with a pig mask and paced on the official road on a horse, the farmers who were working or resting in the threshing floor, wheat field, and field immediately looked at Xiao Tang's side, and soon someone shouted: "It's the big leader!" When the farmers in the surrounding villages heard this, they immediately got up and rushed towards Xiao Tang.

Seeing that the hundreds of men around him seemed to be excited, rushing towards this side together, Xiao Tang's relatives and followers suddenly became alert, and they rode their horses to intercept between their brother and those villagers, and their hands were also pressed on the hilt of the knife. But Xiao Tang immediately shouted in a low voice, ordered the relatives gathered around him to disperse, then turned over and dismounted and stepped forward, and said loudly to those farmers: "Fellow villagers, I don't know what advice you have? ”

From among the Zhuang people who surrounded him, there was a man in his fifties who came out, and he saluted Xiao Tang respectfully, and said: "The whole big leader Shenlong sees the head and does not see the tail, but the whole village is deeply gracious!" In the past, most of the fields in the village were taken down by the big households in the south of Zhuang Town, and they suffered from the exploitation and oppression of the gang, but they never ate a full meal!

That guy was rampant and domineering, and he had a deep friendship with the head of the county government and the head of the government's mansion, and he killed five people without a lawsuit. Fortunately, the Tang Chief, Shi Boss and other heroes in the cottage of the big boss of the whole village in addition to a tyrant, opened a warehouse to release grain, and tore up all the land deeds and rents, so that the small people village square has a way to live, and today I finally had the honor to meet the head of the whole village, and I was able to bow to the head in person! ”

The village was talking, and then all the surrounding farmers knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Xiao Tang, and Xiao Jiasui was already pacing beside Xiao Tang before the words fell, and said in a low voice: "The bullies in Nan Town that are being said here are called Sun Shuzheng, but there is a nickname of 'Peeling Sun', and just as Li Zheng said, he is a gangster who runs rampant in the township and does all kinds of evil, and it is Tang Bin's brothers, as well as Shi Jin's brothers, who are pseudonyms Shi Bin, and others led troops to attack his Zhuangzi and get rid of that guy. only let the concubines of the skinning grandson escape with half of their children and some meager wealth......

The rest of the villagers in their own villages and squares who did evil testified that none of them were left, and half of the money and grain looted were used by the cottages, half of which were distributed to the village farmers, and the ownerless cultivated fields were also distributed. The amount of money and grain obtained, the reasons for the killing of large households, and the complaints of the bitter lords in the village are also clearly recorded, and I have also examined them according to my brother's instructions, and there is nothing wrong with the register of rewarding the good and punishing the evil presented by Erlongshan. ”

Xiao Tang nodded when he heard this, and immediately stepped forward to personally help up the village Zhongzheng who was kneeling and bowing, and after the surrounding relatives and entourage successively moved other village farmers to get up, Xiao Tang said again: "Folks, my heroes who gathered righteousness in Erlongshan Dazhai have long said that they will do things for the heavens, hoe and help the good, except for Sun Papi, the bird who harms the good people. It's just that although the previous land deed has been counted, this is adjacent to my mountain village, and it is expected that the county government officials will not dare to move easily, but if the official side sends the public to come to hold them accountable, or if there are other big households in Zhuang Town and the next farm property still want to do evil, just inform my brother who guards the three passes in front of the village, and I have Erlongshan as the master of the villagers here! ”

The village is hearing the words is more grateful to the green forest heroes gathered in Erlong Mountain, after the bully called the barking sun in Nanzhen was removed, the heroes of Erlong Mountain Dazhai distributed grain, which was already a righteous act that the green forest bandits could not do. However, the leader of the whole country thought more carefully, considering that the farmers in the village had privately divided the land in the name of the pampered grandson, it was inevitable that he would invite the county government officials to settle accounts after the autumn, and he would also take the responsibility for the livelihood of the farmers in the village here on himself, which also made the villagers there and even the whole village feel grateful to Xiao Tangming.

There was about to bow again, but he was firmly held by Xiao Tang. Although Xiao Tang had never seen his true face here, he naturally did not doubt what the "Quan Da Leader" said, and after saying a few words of gratitude, he said: "Quan Da Leader, this time I have to meet with Kai, in addition to worshiping Xie Kai's great grace in person, there is another thing that must be known to Kai. A few days ago, there were really people from the official family who came here, but they did not come to track down the land deeds, but only to inquire about the terrain around Erlong Mountain, whether the heroes in the village have been moving around frequently in recent days, and whether there are villagers in the village who have been taken captive to the village and many other matters. The villain was afraid that the government was planning to attack Dazhai again, and he also instructed the fine villagers in the village to go to Erlongshan Dazhai to report that since he was fortunate to meet the leader of the whole country today, he had to say it to his face. ”

Xiao Tang saw that his mind moved, but when he thought about it, he hadn't heard of the Privy Council issuing an order to mobilize officials and troops from all over the country to attack Erlongshan Dazhai when he left Beijing? What's more, the Hua Rong brothers went to the post of the commander of the soldiers and horses on the Jingdong East Road, and the officials and soldiers would inevitably warn the two mountains of Qingzhou in advance if they moved. In this case, which military division has the intention of attacking Erlong Mountain?

Just as Xiao Tang was pondering, he heard there say again: "Although the villain didn't really hear it, he had vaguely heard a few people say what the former secretary of the Tokyo Palace, Chen Duyu, was in charge of, who would dare to slack off?" Presumably some generals were dispatched from Bianliang, Tokyo, to plot to attack the stockade of the whole big leader, and the villain was suspicious, lest it was to be disadvantageous to the whole big boss and the benefactors in the village, and he had to be careful......

The former secretary of the Bianliang Hall in Tokyo also took over from me to be sent by the official position, and he is surnamed Chen, but isn't it Chen Xizhen?

The fierce glint in the pair of eyes revealed on the mask of the hedgehog flashed, and Xiao Tang secretly said in his heart that Chen Xizhen and the birds who followed him in the front of the palace had also arrived at the boundary of Jingdong Road? However, according to its human nature, one to strive for fame, the other is that the people in the green forest themselves have an inexplicable hatred, although the two mountains of Qingzhou have not yet attacked the important land of Junzhou, but the reputation in the green forest has already resounded through the boundaries of Hebei and Shandong. Chen Xizhen is unwilling to succumb to the tent of Gao Yu all the time, and he also wants to go to the Shandong border to make a name for himself, which is not unusual.

However, if goods such as Chen Xizhen, Zhu Yongqing, and Yun Tianbiao were all gathered in one place, it would be much more convenient for me. Otherwise, when will one and the other be slaughtered?
