When King Rui visited King Gong late at night, in Wuqing County, Shuntian Prefecture, a group of four horses, two in front and two in the back, all horses were vigorously equipped, and under the cover of night, they quietly entered a town called Douzhangzhuang.

The riders on the horse, some old and some young, but all of them are strong and strong, and some of the riders carry long strips of hard objects in their packages. The shape of these four people, in the eyes of people who often walk the rivers and lakes, is naturally a practitioner.

The first two riders, the one on the left, was thin and small, but he rode on a horse, and his waist was straight. Looking at his hands, the joints were bulging, unusually thick, and completely disproportionate to his body. His beard was gray, his eyebrows were thick and eagle-eyed, his cheeks were thin, his cheekbones were high, and his face was wrinkled like a knife.

The one on the right, slightly younger, in his early forties, tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and a red and big face with Chinese characters, can be regarded as dignified.

The two riders behind, the one on the left, in his thirties, slender and long, with a long horse face at the top, hanging eyebrows, mung bean eyes, and the corners of his mouth are down, and his appearance is really not very pleasing; The one on the right, who is in his twenties, is white-skinned, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and there is no problem with wearing makeup to sing a small dan, but there is a frivolous appearance unique to "Jingyouzi" on his face, which makes people look a little awkward.

The gray-haired and elderly one is Dong Heshan, the master of "Xingyi Gate" and the principal of "Juxian Pavilion".

The red-faced man is called Erlebao, and he is the head of the guard of the palace of the king.

The other two are both guards of the palace, with long horse faces and hanging eyebrows. It's called Sun Dazheng. Han Army Bannerman; A young man with a white face. is called Haishan, which is regarded as a circumferential relative of the king of the king - a side of the king of the king, Fujin, is a distant aunt of the king.

As mentioned earlier, as soon as he received the news that he had missed the paste, Dong Heshan hid. Early this morning, as soon as the city gate was opened, the three guards of the palace of Erlebao, Sun Dazheng and Haishan escorted Dong Heshan. Get out of the city.

They were heading east, and now, on their way to flee.

Dong Heshan is a native of Zhuozhou, Zhili, and has been practicing martial arts since childhood, first learning the eight poles, then practicing Liuhe, and then turning into a form of meaning. He has a great talent for martial arts, and when he was in his twenties, his kung fu far surpassed that of his peers, and even his master was no match for him.

But. Dong Heshan's temper is too bad to say a word. Then you have to do it; The soles of his hands are too hard, and he will hurt people when he touches them. Once he quarreled with a senior brother surnamed Chen, and when he started his hand, he seriously injured the other party. This senior brother is the son of a large local family, the father and brother of the Chen family quit, and wanted to report to the official to take him, Dong Heshan could not stand in Zhuozhou, so he had to leave his hometown and go all the way south to northern Anhui.

At that time, in northern Anhui, there was a kind of nomadic people, twisting paper and soaking in oil, lighting the practice, or gathering people to perform all kinds of dazzling tricks, or claiming that they could drive away diseases and disasters for people, so as to bewitch the foolish people and make profits, this is the so-called "twister". Later, in the name of buying oil-twisted paper, the twisters began to collect "sesame oil money" from the villagers in groups - in fact, it was intimidation and extortion, and if they could not meet their demands, they would be beaten and smashed, and the behavior was no different from that of thieves.

Dong Heshan saw the benefits, so he twisted. He has good kung fu, a ruthless heart, and a spicy hand, and soon became a small leader. Hong Yang was in turmoil, and the twist and flag echoed, and Dong Heshan also began his business of killing officials and rebelling.

Originally, Dong Heshan was the first group of people to participate in the uprising of the Twisting Army, and with his ability, it is not uncommon for him to become a "righteousness" or even a "king" over time. However, his bad temper could not be changed, and he quarreled with his companions at every turn, and when he quarreled, he would do it, and when he did it, he would hurt people, and finally broke into a big disaster.

Once after winning the battle and distributing the spoils, Dong Heshan thought that his team had too little to gain, and quarreled with his immediate boss.

This top boss was nicknamed "Da Zhang Ji", and his temper was also big, and he was arguing, both of them covered their eyes with fire, "Da Zhang Ji" grabbed a copper kettle and smashed it, Dong Heshan caught it sideways, threw it back, and hit the "Da Zhang Ji" brain. He had so much strength that the copper kettle split into two pieces, and the brains of the "big Zhang Ji" flew and he was killed on the spot.

"Da Zhang Ji" is not only Dong Heshan's top boss, but also a close relative of Zhang Lexing, the leader of the Twist Army, Dong Heshan knows that if he does not escape, he will definitely not be lucky, so he has to embark on the road of escape again.

Dong Heshan once fantasized that since he had killed a very important "twisted bandit" leader, I don't know if he could use this to talk to the imperial court, which can be regarded as atonement for his sins and ask for "Zhao'an"?

He really asked someone to "ask for directions" from a staff general of Yuan Jia's third department. The other party agreed, saying that he would not only "wash the bottom", but also protect him from Yuan Dashuai...... Well, at least be a guerrilla.

Dong Heshan was overjoyed and thanked the middleman heavily.

However, what Dong Heshan and the intermediary did not know was that he was only a middle- and lower-level leader of the Twist Army, and he did not bring a single soldier with him, and this kind of "anyway" was unattractive to the officers and soldiers. The general perfunctory his purpose was to take his head for his own credit, and to hack the money he had taken from the twister.

When it came to an end, Dong Heshan realized that the situation was wrong. He reacted, relying on his good kung fu, he knocked over a few Qing soldiers with his bare hands, and escaped with his life, but he was still slashed on his back, and all the savings earned by licking blood with the knife in the past few years were lost to others.

At this moment, the way of entry on both sides was cut off.

Because people on both sides wanted to take him, after Dong Heshan recovered from his injuries, he didn't dare to show his face, so he could only hide in Tibet, secretly working for people for a short time, and his life was very hard. Sometimes, I can't get by, and I have to steal and rob secretly.

He is a capable person, how can he be willing to live such a life? When I was indignant, I had such a cruel thought: I don't care which side - whether it is the court or the twister, find the biggest boss - such as the monk demon or Zhang Lexing, and cut it with a knife, even if you immediately draw the knife to self-determination, it is also called an earth-shattering event, not in vain, nor worthy of your outstanding good kung fu!

Of course, this was just his fantasy, and he never really put it into practice.

In this way, after a few years, the shape changed, Zhang Lexing hunted and killed the monk Greenqin, and the twist army was divided into east twist and west twist, Zhang Lexing's old subordinates were twisted west, led by his nephew Zhang Zongyu, and marched westward, hoping to be able to return to the northwest with the trouble; On the side of the imperial court, the general who murdered Dong Heshan in Yuan Jiasan's department was killed, and Yuan Jiasan himself also resigned due to illness. In short, no one on either side of Dong Heshan's affairs is in charge.

Only then did Dong Heshan resurface.

He heard that Beijing's "five princes" were good at martial arts, widely distributed "hero posts", paid a lot of money, and summoned people with extraordinary abilities in the rivers and lakes, so he moved his mind and decided to go north to the feet of the Son of Heaven to see if he could make a career.

Before going north, Dong Heshan did a "big thing" that had been pressed in his heart for a long time: he found the middleman who introduced him to the Qing Dynasty back then, and killed his family of five, including his father, wife and a pair of immature children, regardless of how the person justified and pleaded.

In the troubled times, human life is like ants, such a tragedy, the chaos of the army, no one is held accountable.

Dong Heshan entered Beijing, found the palace of the king of Shochu Hutong, and went to the door to post it. Coincidentally, on the same day, the king recruited a group of martial artists and was "performing martial arts" in the mansion. At this point, there was a martial artist who came to the door to post it, which was quite a bit of a "kicking the hall" flavor, and the king was very interested, and immediately ordered someone to pass it on.

Dong Heshan kowtowed to King Xuan, and after standing up, King Xuan saw that although he was thin, he had big hands and feet, and his shape was very different, and he looked at the wolf Gu with eagle eyes, and that spirit was quite different from ordinary martial artists.

The king was also a man of vision, and he was amazed in his heart, and asked, "What do you have in your hand?" Let's play a few tricks and take a look! ”

Dong Heshan said: "Lord Qiyu, what kind of taste does this person have when he practices kung fu?" There are several masters here, why don't I practice with them for the prince! ”

Yo, this is a war book!

The king was even more pleased, and said, "All right! Let's just practice together! ”
