In May, the sun is scorching and the weather is already hot. The centipede ridge is cool, the pine forest is bursting, and the mountain wind is blowing.

Liu Tang and Han Bolong's wounds have healed, and there is no fever and pus, which is the greatest joy.

In the blink of an eye, it has been half a month since Lu Qian's return, and the three of them have been on this Centipede Ridge for more than a month. Even the filial son in front of the grave is coming to an end.

The three of them decided to get out and leave.

He didn't tell the family of the prince, only left a letter and a garlic strip of gold in the tomb, and in the middle of the night, the horse's mouth was tied to the piece, the four hooves were wrapped in the foot, and the three of them took three horses and two heavy ox carts, and went down the Centipede Ridge.

On the empty ridge, only the overturned Zhang Gongzi remained.

"It would be nice to have a little sweat medicine left behind when the slope is crossed." Liu Tang knocked out Mrs. Zhang's son unconscious, and moved the son of Mrs. Zhang to the cemetery. For more than a month, I ate other people's food, drank other people's, and lived in other people's houses, and when I left, I didn't say thank you, and I also knocked people over, which is really ashamed.

Han Bolong was happy because he was going down the mountain. "Who could have taken care of this at the beginning, who would have expected that we would be able to bump into the Zhang family and have this feng shui treasure land to settle down."

The three of them were no longer troubled by their injuries, and they were also fast from Centipede Ridge to Cangzhou, and they traveled thirty miles a day, and they had already seen Chai Jin's manor in half a month. On the way, they also detoured to Gaotang Prefecture, where Gao Yu's brother Gao Lian was a court official, and the investigation was very strict, so Lu Qian and the three of them went around Gaotang.

Of course, Lu Qian left a trace in the life of the Tang Dynasty, and there was a conflict in a wave of ruffians.

In this way, in Nanpi in Cangzhou, the time has come to break up, and this is Han Bolong's hometown. Lu Qian and Liu Tang separated from Han Bolong, Han Bolong went to his hometown, and Lu Qian and Liu Tang threw firewood in.

There are more than one or two Zhuangzi under Chai Jin's name, although the surrounding Zhuangzi also gathers the Jianghu Han, but Lu Qian and Liu Tang go straight to Chai Jin's main village - because it is in the easternmost place, it was changed to Dongzhuang.

The two of them were dressed very well, hired someone to drive the ox cart, approached Zhuangzi, and ate wine in the roadside wine shop, so naturally they did not receive the same treatment as Lin Chong in the original book. asked Xiao Erchai where he was in the village, and he was also attentive to him.

On the side of the big stone bridge, turn the bay and wipe the corner, a flat road, and see the village courtyard in the shade of the green willows.

Four times a week by a wide river, on both sides of the weeping poplar trees, in the shade of the trees by a white wall. Turn the bay to the village, and there are four or five villagers sitting on the broad board bridge in front of it, all of whom are enjoying the shade there.

Seeing a monk riding a horse and coming with an ox cart, these villagers were surprised at first. One person ran to tell the old man, and the other people came forward to talk.

Lu Qian and Liu Tang came to the bridge and saluted Zhuang Ke, Lu Qian said: "Annoying a few big brothers and big officials know that the Taoist surnamed Lu in Jingxi and his companion red-haired ghost Liu Tang asked to see him. ”

Liu Tang is still dressed as a head, but he just took off the iron hoop on his head, and the cinnabar-like birthmark is very obvious.

He has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, he is not very old, but his reputation is not weak, especially in Cangzhou.

Because, this private salt is also a big entry for Chai Jin. There are many tributaries of the Nazhang River flowing in Cangzhou, and because there are many reeds on both banks, it is called "long reed". In the north and south of the North Zhou Dynasty, the elephant set up a county here, because of the name Changlu County (now Cangzhou City), the Northern Song Dynasty Xining abolished Changlu County in four years and changed to Changlu Town. The Changlu Salt Farm is in this place, and it would be strange if Chai Jin didn't intervene in the sale of private salt.

Yes, Liu Tang's name has been heard of by these villagers.

Now seeing that the Taoist in front of him is still pressing on Liu Tang, where will he be sluggish. When the old man arrived, he saw a monk talking and laughing with a few villagers. The old man is in charge of people, and he immediately knows that there are things that he doesn't know.

Sure enough, one of the Zhuang guests who stayed behind, after seeing Lao Duguan, hurriedly said: "So that Lao Duguan knows that this is a Lu Dao man from Jingxi, and the one who is dressed as a head is a famous man in the rivers and lakes, the red-haired ghost Liu Tang's brother." ”

Any industry is divided into hierarchies, and the officialdom is strictly hierarchical, so how can the hierarchy on the rivers and lakes be loosened?

These Zhuangke are just lackeys under Chai Jin, and if Liu Tang enters Chai Jin Zhuangzi, then he will at least be a guest.

I don't know how many men in the Great Song Dynasty walked the rivers and lakes, but everyone who can be famous in the rivers and lakes is not an easy person.

Lao Duguan may have heard of Liu Tang's name, or he may not know about it at all, but this is definitely a clear-eyed person.

Liu Tang is a well-known man in the rivers and lakes, but this Lu Dao person is unknown, but the unknown Lu Dao person is ranked on Liu Tang's head, Liu Tang has no complaints, this Lu Dao person is not an idler.

Very respectfully introduced into the village, and after a while, Chai Jin was rewarded, and he had already walked out quickly.

At the age of thirty-four or five, he was born with dragon eyebrows and phoenix eyes, teeth and red lips; Three-toothed mouth and beard, a romantic character. He wears a soap gauze corner scarf, a purple embroidered robe, a delicate jade ring tied around his waist, and a pair of gold and green soap boots.

After Lu Qian ran to Tokyo, he really never saw such a character in disguise again, and he was definitely a nobleman.

"Don't dare to hide it from the big officials, the villain is not a Taoist, but he killed Lu Qian in the high office. Since killing Gao Kan on that day, he has died in the rivers and lakes, and he will not be able to live in peace for a day. Later, I heard that the heroes of the rivers and lakes said that the Cangzhou Chai officials were extravagant figures, loved heroes and heroes, liked to recruit talents, and were willing to protect colleagues in the rivers and lakes, so they came to meet with the Liu Tang brothers. ”

Chai Jin was first shocked when he heard Lu Qian's name, and then overjoyed. He is not young, but he is really a little unstable, and when he heard Lin Chong's name in the original book, he rolled into the saddle and dismounted, and galloped forward. Now he is also very happy, this is a person who grew up in a nest of wealth, eating and drinking, and has a very high self-esteem, but he is trapped in his identity and cannot stretch his ambitions, so he has resentment in his heart. I don't know the hardships of life, but I'm not learning that Cao Cao deliberately greeted him.

"It turned out to be Lu Yuhou, who killed Gaokan righteously, and he lost his welcome, and he lost his welcome. Chai Jin has heard the name of Marquis Yu for a long time, and he has admired it for a long time, and he doesn't want to see his face today. patted his chest and packed the ticket, saying that his Zhuangzi was absolutely safe, and the officials did not dare to force him to come to search the village, so that Lu Qian and Liu Tang could live with peace of mind.

Chai Jin invited the two of them to the front of the hall and said: "Xiao Kezhen is really a big name that has been heard of Marquis Yu for a long time. Today, I came to step on the cheap land, which is enough to call the wish of my life's thirst! "The enthusiasm is palpable.

Lu Qian smiled bitterly and said, "This kind of husband should not be worried. The name of the big official spreads Haiyu, who doesn't know, who is disrespectful! I just don't want to be a fugitive today, but Lu Qian is a fugitive, sneaking here, and I am very ashamed. Now I can get the respect of my face, and I am loved by the big officials, and I am very fortunate to be a good student! Liu Tang sat down in the living room.

Chai Jin also knew Liu Tang's name, and he was very puzzled how Lu Qian and Liu Tang got together?

Lu Qian told himself about the ferry that day, and then sighed, because of the disaster he broke into, it affected the innocent heroes.

This is just a mouthful of words, no matter how many people are involved, what does Lu Qian really do? He didn't pay any attention to it. This is just to solicit Liu Tang's loyalty and establish a self-image.

The old capital manager had already brought the horses and ox carts into the village and arranged a secluded yard for Lu Qian and Liu Tang, but this was what Lu Qian meant. He said that he has always appeared as a Taoist in the village, and many businesses in the province are foreign.

The imperial court is now strictly ordering him to be arrested, and he must not be careless and cause more trouble for Chai Jin.

Chai Jin laughed and boasted again, but Lu Qian insisted, and he also pushed the boat with the water. Summoned the Zhuang guest to bring up the wine and food, and a strong man came in, reporting his name, it was the head of the Hong sect who did not bask in Lin Chong. Listening to Chai Jin's boasting, this person played a good gun, but the year is uneven, the fate is unlucky, and he is even more shy, and he has been brushed down by people for several martial arts, and he has just been introduced to the village as a teacher.

Hearing Chai Jin say this, Lu Qian also understood why this guy had such a big opinion on Lin Chong, but he didn't look down on this Hong sect leader in his heart. If you really want to sell your life to the emperor's family, if you have a martial art, you will go straight to the army. In the past few years, the Western Army has used troops against the Western Xia Lianlian, as long as he is a hero, why can't he get ahead?

This guy is also afraid of his life like Lu Qian's original owner, and he is unwilling to go to the battlefield to fight, but he envies fame and fortune. But Lu Qian and Lin Chong pulled it and brought it from Xijing to the palace marshal's mansion in Tokyo, but this guy was in decline.
