Chapter 275: A Small Pond Fish, Called Very Mixed with the River Dragon [Requested]
Monk Hua loves righteous men the most, and he is not happy to hear it, "I don't want the Yuan family brothers to be so righteous, it is the fault of the family, and I underestimate it." After saying that, he saw Yuan Lang to pay tribute, and Wu Song followed and bowed. asked Yuan Lang to give birth to four hands, and he helped this one, but he couldn't support that.
"Brother, this is a courtesy. Not to mention that I Wusong and Brother Luda misunderstood you, just say that you gave up the glory and wealth here and joined Liangshanbo with us, so I Wuer admired. "Lu Qian is as generous to the leader of the cottage, but no matter how lively Liangshanbo is, how can he not compare to the imperial state capital like Fangzhou and Nanfeng Mansion?
No matter how barren they were, the emaciated camels were bigger than the horses. Many green forest heroes just can't get over this hurdle.
"That's what Jiro said. This heroes in the rivers and lakes and green forests are like the Qing who crosses the river, and there are too many to count. But it is rare to see people like brothers who regard wealth and wealth as idle clouds. We Liangshan Bo brothers gathered together, relying on a righteous word, Lu Da led the righteous Bo Yuntian, and the brothers were not inferior to others. The brothers of the Yuan family are so righteous, how can they not be like-minded? ”
Talking and laughing like this, time flies, and two days and nights have arrived in Xiangyang Mansion. It's just that it is not easy to fight Xiangyang forward. Guy suddenly added a lot of officers and soldiers to inspect and cover up on land and water.
Lu Zhishen followed to investigate, and said in a half-loud report: "I am afraid that the Huaixi Army lost the two leaders of Lu Wu, and the leader of Yuan was earned, and there was hatred, which made people leak out of the official army." Everywhere they knew that the three leaders were going to fight this. It's just that there are many inaccuracies in the portraits, and the disguise of the leader monk of Gailu is easy to make the prince suspicious, and the leader of Wu and the leader of Yuan only pretend to be foot traders, and the blades are missing, and no one can recognize the big thorns walking by. ”
"How's that okay?" Wu Song and Yuan Lang both looked at Lu Zhishen, who had been a monk since he became a monk, although he had not complied with the rules and precepts of Buddhism for a few days, he held the "monk" and did not let go. Wu Song knew that the elder brother of the owner of the cottage had long asked him to return to the vulgar, marry a wife, have children, and reproduce, but the brother of the Lu family refused resolutely.
Lu Zhishen didn't want to have such a catastrophe, stroked his bald head, and said: "In this case, the two brothers will take the first step." When the Sprinkle family arrives at night, they take advantage of the moonlight to hurry, and it doesn't take much effort to bypass this Xiangyang City. ”
"What did my brother say? The little brothers can't take advantage of the moonlight? After dark, we all hit the road. Wu Song and Yuan Lang said the same thing.
So he told the boat to find a dock and dock, and told him to go to the shore to buy more wine and meat, so that he could eat and drink.
At night, Yuan Lang sneaked into the forage field first and lit a fire. Xiangyang Wharf is a prosperous commercial port, and the local government has set up a forage field here, which has benefited a lot.
Such a fire alarmed the whole city of Xiangyang. The patrol outside the city also led the same team of people, with shackles and buckets, and various fire-fighting objects, and flocked to the forage field to rescue. I still muttered to myself: "The forage field is guarded by a special person, how can it be burned." There have been a lot of rumors in the past two days, but the Liangshan thieves are on vacation! ”
But I don't know if this fire is really the way of Liangshanbo's heroes.
Taking advantage of the fire in the forage yard, Ding Yonggong of the Inspection Department was pulled away, and Wu Song stepped into the courtyard.
Seeing a figure walking under the eaves of the upper porch, Wu Song first stuck to the corner of the wall and did not move. When he got closer, he realized that it was a Si Lang, and strode forward, as fast as a meteor, and knocked that Si Lang to the ground. Then he went straight to the inner hall.
The waning moon on the top half of the roof ridge shone obliquely into the church. asked Wu Song to see clearly that the right wall was neatly organized, and there were five orders inserted on the shelf. Wu Song pulled himself out, closed the door instead, and walked outside the courtyard, where he saw that the two entourages had been quietly standing in the shade of a large tree. The three of them went straight out of the door. The inspector was transferred to the forage field, and only one of them was left, and he was also knocked unconscious by Wu Song, so there was no one, so they walked calmly.
When Wu Song went out, he saw Lu Zhishen and Yuan Lang not far away with a few entourages, all of whom had already pretended to be inspectors in the inspection department, and each of them led a horse and waited there. Lu Zhishen had already changed into a cyan robe, made a soft towel on his head, put on a Fan Yang hat, took the order in Wu Song's hand, and ran towards the night first. There are a few lanterns taken from the inspection department behind the horse, shining in the sky. At that time, the fire that ignited in the forage field was still unabated, and Lu Zhishen and the others were on horseback, looking at the raging fire and only laughing happily.
Along the way, I saw several teams of patrol soldiers Yong, although I doubted that they were carrying parcel boxes on horseback, but I saw Lu Zhishen signing the order in his hand, so he let them go. During the night, he ran about thirty or twenty miles, moved onto the path, let go of all the exhausted lame horses, changed into clothes, and found a small ferry to rest. There are a few village shops nearby, and they fall jaggedly on the river embankment. In the crowd of people, there are big willow trees that hug each other, a row of more than a dozen, growing inside and outside the embankment, and a green hill gushing out of the flat ground. Lu Zhishen said: "We have so many people that we want to charter a ferry to go over, and Hugh is busy with the ferrymen, and ask for two bowls of wine to quench their thirst." "Under the embankment was the ferry, and there were five or seven ferryboats, leaning against each other and stopping at the ferry.
Everyone was hungry and thirsty all the way, and after listening to Lu Zhishen's words, they all applauded. I found a nearby hotel, picked up two seats, and asked the store for two barrels of wine, cut two large plates of meat, and then asked for two drawers of cooking cakes.
But if you have money, the service of this hotel boat is first-class.
Lu Zhishen and his entourage had just eaten and drunk all the wine and meat here, and the store over there wrapped cooked mutton, bacon, sauce meat, cooked chicken and duck, cooking cakes, and two jars of wine, and they were all ready.
As for the boatman, he first took a silver ingot thrown by Wu Song, and the snowflake silver of ten taels made the boatman have no more than half a word, and diligently helped them carry the wine and meat into the cabin.
But at this time, a stream of yellow dust, rolled up a few feet high, came straight to the ferry. Because of the terrain, when Lu Zhishen saw that they were no longer more than a hundred steps away from each other. "This is the dust of ordinary pedestrians, may there be officers and soldiers chasing us?"
Wu Erlang shouted at the moment. shouted: "The heroes of Liangshan are here, and those who are not afraid of sending them to death will come." When the first two horses heard the shouting, they stopped their horses. Yuan Lang, who had picked up the bow and arrow here, was already kind, bent the bow and drew the arrow, aimed at the first horse and shot it, and with a whoosh, he saw that the man fell in response. The second horseman saw it, twisted the horse's head, and galloped back. They met the large group of men and horses from a distance and set up their positions together.
When Lu Zhishen looked at it, there were about forty or fifty horsemen, so he said to Wu Song Yuan Lang: "It is not unusual to see their number, and it is not troublesome to kill them ordinarily." As long as we have to go back to the mountains, we are not determined to fight, and we are afraid that there will be a large number of people behind them to catch up, so it is better to retreat. Wu Song and Yuan Lang listened to it and thought it was true.
The forty or fifty horsemen in front of him were really not enough for the three of them to kill. But if it is involved, it will not be beautiful if a large group of officers and soldiers will come later. Therefore he was not stubborn, so he overturned the boatman in the water, and gave him only a piece of gold weighing five taels, and when the boatman fell into the water, his face was full of smiles.
Lu Zhishen and his entourage retreated to the boat, just when the arrangements were ready, several Liangshanbo entourages were good at manipulating the boat, dismantling the gangplank at the bow of the boat, holding a long penny in their hands, and then lit the foot of the embankment with a penny, and swung the boat away. The boat was less than two feet from the shore, and saw that the officers and soldiers and horses had already rushed off the ferry. Yuan Lang looked at the first person, with a long beard and a black face, wearing a cooked copper armor, and a jujube yang lance in his hand, which was Huang Peng, the regimental training envoy of Xiangyang.
Behind this Huang Peng, hundreds of people are coming, not afraid of Lu Zhishen and his gang. Seeing Lu Zhishen's ferry, he pulled the cloth sails, the water was smooth, and he couldn't chase after him, so he shouted: "This thief is hateful, let go of the gang of thieves on this boat, quickly release the arrows, and take them down!" As he spoke, he waved his jujube lance and led the Wuqi cavalry army to the water's edge and scolded. The officers and men on the shore each raised their bows and arrows and fired indiscriminately at the ferry. The people on the boat did not take precautions, and Lu Zhishen and the two of them had already been hit by arrows. Wu Song hurriedly danced the springboard on the bow of the ship to block the arrows.
When Yuan Lang saw this, he was furious, and shouted: "Dog officer, eat me with an arrow." He hid behind Wu Song with half of his body, and when he said this, he put the bow and arrow in his hand, saw it accurately, and shot it at Huang Peng. Huang Peng and Lu Zhishen were the same, but they didn't expect an arrow to shoot back from the boat, so they straightened their waists and sat on the saddle and scolded them. When he saw the shadow of the arrow, it was already difficult to dodge, so he screamed and was hit by an arrow in his chest, turned over and fell off the horse. How could the rest of the officers and soldiers still care about archery, they jumped off their horses to grab help, and they had no intention of caring about Lu Zhishen and his party.
The farther the ferry went from the shore, the people in Liangshan did not pay attention to the officers and soldiers. The wounded person was pulled out of the arrow and the wound was bandaged. Lu Zhishen was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, but it was not very heavy. The other two are the same.
In this way, Lu Zhishen and his entourage let go of the Han River and went south to Chuyang, before abandoning the boat and landing on the shore. Continue south to the Yangtze River, cross the river, and then travel 100 miles by land, cross Ezhou and Wuhan, go to the Wuchang Huangzhou River section, charter a boat, and go straight to the south of the Yangtze River.
At this time, at the mouth of the Han River and the wharf of Ezhou, the official officers and inspectors were still wide-eyed, looking straight at every passing ship. If it's just like this, it's not much, it's just a chance to give the officials in Ezhou a chance to get their hands on it. But inevitably, the pond fish will be affected.
Let's talk about the mixed river dragon on the Xunyang River. Since the Ezhou government imposed martial law on land and water, his originally smooth private salt business road was like suffering from thrombosis, and the blocked Li Jun and his gang wanted to scold their mother.
If the official government of Ezhou investigates the thieves in Liangshan, the official government of Jiangzhou will not slack off, so it grasps their lifeline.
"The fire at the city gate has affected the fish in the pond." The mixed river dragon is bored. In the past, he thought that he was not bad, and the Xunyang River came and went freely, that is, the big ones in the Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake could be swept away, but he didn't want only the three or two leaders of Liangshanbo to pass by on the river, and the turmoil caused him to be slapped into the mud by the so-called mixed river dragon.
In the future, where will there be a face called a very confused river dragon, just that little pond fish.
Fortunately, there is no long-term reason for such martial law. The official government of Ezhou does not mention it, but Li Jun, the official government of Jiangzhou, knows it. The prefect of this state is the son of the current Taishi Cai Jing, the small Cai Jiu, and the large Cai Dezhang. is greedy for officials, arrogant and extravagant, and his pen and ink articles are not as good as his Lao Tzu, but greed is not inferior to Cai Jing.
In the past, many of the smuggling activities of this waterway were all carried out by him.
Li Jun is very sure that there are a lot of private goods on the Xunyang River now, just because of him Cai Jiu. It's just that he doesn't dare to compare himself with Liang Shanbo's benevolence and righteousness, but he won't give this corrupt official a penny. In this way, the business will naturally be delayed.
His business was suspended, and Li Jun only sat on the boat. Recently, the limelight in Jiangzhou is not right, but he is unwilling to go ashore and take risks. Every day, I take wine for recreation, and I am also leisurely. The weather was fine that day, Tong Weitong was a little tired of being stunned, and he wanted to go to Jieyang Town to play money, but Li Jun did not allow it. I don't want to see each other for three or two days, and the brothers will come back so quickly.
"Brother, woe too. The boat was caught by the male......"
