Chapter 48: Crazy Boy
Last time, although Tang Zhou had no money, he decided to try his luck in Wengang.
Tang Zhouzheng didn't dare to get close to the place where people lived because he had no money, so he didn't dare to eat a serious meal, even if he begged for some leftovers like a beggar. He had been waiting for almost 4 years before he finally found an opportunity to escape. If he is caught, what awaits him is definitely a dead end. Therefore, he didn't dare to make any mistakes, and he couldn't let the Taiping Sect have the slightest chance to discover himself.
These days, all he relies on is digging some grass roots, picking some unknown wild vegetables, catching some insects, and filling his stomach. Fortunately, there is no famine now, and these things can be found. It's not like he hasn't eaten these things that aren't eaten by people before, even if it's dirt, he's seen others eat it. Thankfully, at that time, he Tang Zhou didn't mix so badly, and only the option of dirt was left. As far as he knew, the people who ate the dirt quickly died, and after so many years, it is estimated that those people have long since turned back into dirt.
Tang Zhou is also from the scholar clan, but he is not a member of the clan in the family, just one of the countless small branches, and the family environment is not rich. When he was a child, like many children of the noble clan, he went to a private school. However, Xiao Tang Zhou himself doesn't like to study very much, and thinks that those "Zhihu also" are very boring and boring. He likes to study new things and is curious about everything around him.
was originally a very smart child, but unfortunately he didn't develop Liu Bei's long-sleeved dancing skills. The skill points are all focused on observation and thinking.
Because Xiao Tang Zhou's grades were very average, and the society at that time only valued public relations talents, because connections were the most important thing, and without connections, no one would know even if they were good. And they don't attach importance to talents like Tang Zhou who are engaged in research, so after Xiao Tang Zhou completed his enlightenment education, the family did not continue to cultivate him.
In the eyes of his parents, the children are perfect, and Xiao Tang Zhou is also very smart and clever, and his parents don't understand the practices of the elders in the clan. They think that their children are so smart that they will become officials in the future, but if they don't continue to study, they won't have a chance.
At that time, being an official was what every family most desired their children to do, and it was also the only way to get ahead. So it's no wonder that Tang Zhou's parents don't understand the clan's decision. Pity the hearts of parents all over the world. They save money so that their son can continue to go to school.
But Tang Zhou was still young at that time, he was not sensible, he didn't know the hard work of his parents, and he was very dissatisfied with his parents' arrangements. He didn't like to study in the first place, but he didn't have to go to school, and now he was sent to school by his parents. So Tang Zhou resisted reading even more, and learned to skip class without telling his family.
Because Tang Zhou was not the key training object in the family, the gentlemen of the private school did not discipline him strictly, and it could even be said that he was laissez-faire. The gentlemen of the private school were already very annoyed that Tang Zhou was making trouble in class, and they wished that he would not come. It's good now, Tang Zhou's skipping class is lining the mind of Mr. Private School: Tang Monkey don't come again. Therefore, the gentlemen of the private school did not report this situation to Tang Zhou's parents.
Tang Zhou has been in the society for a long time, and slowly got to know the unemployed vagrants and ruffians in the city. Tang Zhou thinks they are very cool, they can do whatever they want, no one dares to care. So he joined them, and followed them everywhere to cheat, steal and rob, although it was a little dangerous, but it was also a nourishing life, and it was very happy and revengeful. Tang Zhou likes this feeling of being a hero very much.
Gradually, Tang Zhou also made a name for himself in the city. Because he is relatively thin and sensitive, he is the best at stealing, so everyone gave him a nickname, called Monkey, which is exactly the same as the nickname given to him by the gentlemen of the private school, which is really a coincidence.
It's just that on the rivers and lakes, everyone respectfully calls him the monkey master. Tang Zhou listened to the monkey master, but what he was thinking about was the Hou master, who was knighted, how majestic.

This matter was finally known to the people of the Tang family, and the elders were very angry and found his father to reprimand him. Of course, his father was also very angry, and he quarreled with Tang Zhou directly. The mother was very sad and couldn't understand why her son had become what he is today. But Tang Zhou felt that everything he had saved today was saved by himself, so why did his parents care about him, so he ran away from home.
Until the appearance of a man named Huang Yu, Tang Zhou's leisurely days came to an end.
On the rivers and lakes, people have never heard of this guy named Huang Yu, so no one knows where he came from, as if he came out of thin air. But this guy who appeared out of thin air only took one night to settle Liu Sheng, who had occupied the west of the city for many years, and I heard that there were people from the government who participated in the encirclement and suppression of Liu Sheng at that time.
Everyone knows that if you want to gain a foothold in the city, it is necessary to have a good relationship with the people in the government. And the government is also willing to have such a group of heroes under its own hands to help them settle some troublesome things. So as long as the heroes don't touch the interests of the officials, the officials don't care much about the affairs of the rivers and lakes.
But this time Huang Yu's position is unusual, but I don't know how big the official behind him is.
Soon, Huang Yu's power extended to the east of the city. Tang Zhou inevitably clashed with them.
Just as Tang Zhou, under the leadership of the boss, was about to negotiate with Huang Yu and them, who knew that the other party didn't talk about the rules of the rivers and lakes at all, and started fighting directly. And as soon as the two sides got in touch, an official errand came out from the corner and roof of the house to join Huang Yu's side.
Tang Zhou's boss was blinded: This is still a fart, can the people in the government be offended? The other party is someone he can't afford to mess with at all. So he chose to turn around and run as soon as possible.
His subordinates didn't know the unspoken rules of this, they didn't know what was going on, why the boss ran away. Did you lose the battle on your side? So they started running too.
Although Tang Zhou knew that he had lost, as an old man in the club, of course he had to take his head well, be righteous, and protect the boss, so he organized people to buy time for the boss to escape. He also hoped that when their boss was safe, he would find a way to save himself and the others.
Tang Zhou was still too tender and didn't understand the Tao at all. His boss left the county seat directly after this run, and he was ready to run away a long time ago.
From the beginning, he felt that this time the odds were not good, and asked his family to pack up their things and leave the city before the negotiations. He knew that the people he knew above were probably not as good as Huang Yu, and if he continued to stay, he could only wait for death.
