Under the light, Song Jiang took a closer look at the stone brought by Dai Zong, only to see that it was polished with granite, round and smooth, the shape was like a popular chess piece, the size was handy and there was enough weight to throw it away, Song Jiang was quite tempted, this young man has a talent, if he can recruit him up the mountain, even if he can't find Hu Cheng, it will not be in vain for them to travel thousands of miles to run this trip. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

At this time, Dai Zong had palpitations and said: "The other party's stone is very accurate, I was hit by him with two stones, and Li Heitan is estimated to have been hit and fell off the wall." ”

Ruan Xiaoer next to him said coldly: "He has already shown mercy to his subordinates, if you use a bow and arrow, do you still have a life?" ”

Song Jiang pondered silently, he also knew that Li Yanqing had shown mercy to his subordinates, not to mention bows and arrows, even with flying knives, Dai Zong was either dead or injured, he pondered for a long time, and asked, "What time is it?" ”

"It's been four shifts!"

Song Jiang nodded, this matter can't be delayed until dawn, after dawn, the people in the village reported to the official and took Li Kui away, and the matter will be in trouble.

He immediately said, "Let's go to Li Wen Village!" ”

The Ruan brothers glanced at each other, and they were helpless, so they had to follow Song Jiang.

This time Song Jiang mainly came to persuade Hu Cheng to join the gang, so he only brought four brothers, but he didn't expect Hu Cheng to see him, and he killed a teenager Li Yanqing halfway, beating them to an embarrassment, in order to save Li Kui, Song Jiang had to come forward in person and negotiate with Li Yanqing again.

Soon, they rushed to the backyard of Li Yanqing's house, Song Jiang was afraid that there was a plot on the ground, but he didn't dare to get too close, at this time, Dai Zong suddenly pointed to the roof, "Big brother, he is there!" ”

Song Jiang also saw it, sitting alone on the roof, although he was tall, his body was insufficient, it should be Li Yanqing.

He urged him to take a few steps forward and shouted, "Li Shaolang, can we talk?" ”

"What is there to talk about!"

Li Yanqing stood on the roof and said coldly: "You trespassed into people's houses and tried to kill people and sell goods, but I still looked down on you, thinking that you were really doing the right thing for heaven, and now it seems that what is the difference between you and the thieves who are indiscriminate?" ”

Ruan Xiaoer's face was full of shame, and he just wanted to turn around and leave, but Song Jiang was unmoved, and he was a little surprised in his heart, this young man was actually proficient in the art of negotiation, first overwhelming the other party in righteousness, occupying a psychological advantage, and then bargaining.

Song Jiang continued: "We don't have malicious intentions, and we don't want to provoke right and wrong, so Li Shaolang will just say it!" Why did you let my brother go? ”

"Yes, your brother is in my hands now, if you are sincere, we can talk, if you are not sincere, then I have to wait for dawn to report to the official."

"I don't know what kind of sincerity Li Shaolang wants?"

Li Yanqing said loudly: "I want you to swear that you will leave Xiangzhou immediately after Li Kui's release, and you will not come to harass me again, let alone hurt my family, this is the sincerity I want!" ”

Song Jiang was suddenly embarrassed, folding an arrow and swearing is not such a casual thing, if the world knows that he Song Jiang is planted in the hands of a young man, who else is willing to follow him again, this broken arrow swears that he can't do it.

"Li Shaolang, I can promise you, if you let my people go, I will leave immediately, and I will never embarrass you and your family again, with the Ruan brothers to testify, can you still not believe my promise?"

Li Yanqing sneered and said, "I believe you can do it now, but what about a year and a half later?" You Song Jiang suffered today's loss, will you swallow this breath? I don't believe you unless you swear by an arrow! ”

Song Jiang didn't expect the other party to be so shrewd, he actually saw through his own thoughts, he wanted to admit it first, and then send someone to clean up Li Yanqing, but the other party didn't give him any loopholes, Song Jiang gradually had a killing intention in his heart, he could break the arrow and swear, but if the world didn't know about it, he could only slaughter this village.

At this moment, I heard a loud voice not far away, "How about the old man come and be an intermediary?" ”

Song Jiang was taken aback, he didn't expect that there were outsiders hiding next to him, he rode his horse back a few steps, stared at the darkness and asked, "Who is it?" ”

Li Yanqing was overjoyed, he heard that this voice was Zhou Dong who had met once in the Spring Society in the afternoon, he thought that Zhou Tong had gone back, but he didn't expect him to appear at this time.

I saw a tall and burly figure jumping down from a big tree, like a giant bird falling to the ground, silently, he arched his hand and said loudly: "In Zhou Dong, Shaanxi, I have long admired the name of Song Jiang in Shandong, fortunately!" ”

Zhou Tong saw Li Yanqing wielding a sword on the road that day, and he never forgot it, and later heard that Li Yanqing had won the head of the Boy Scouts Club five years ago, and he was even more interested in Li Yanqing.

When it was the Spring Society, he went to play all over Tangyin, so he walked to Lushan Town, but he happened to meet Li Yanqing and the Ruan brothers gambling arrows, Zhou Tong of course knew that Liangshan was a good man, and his apprentice Lin Chong was mixed in.

Zhou Tong was really not at ease, so he hid near Li Yanqing's house and secretly observed, witnessing Li Yanqing defeat Dai Zong with flying stones and capture Li Kui alive, until Song Jiang arrived, he finally showed up.

Song Jiang was stunned, and asked for a while: "But the iron arm Zhou Daxia?" ”

"The hero doesn't dare to be, the old man is Zhou Tong!"

Zhou Tong has been alive for a long time, he knows that Li Yanqing can't solve today's problems, in the name of Song Jiang, how can he admit to a country boy, even if Song Jiang is soft for a while, he will definitely retaliate strongly, and only by mediating himself can he help Li Yanqing get rid of this trouble.

Zhou Tong said with a smile: "The old man is willing to be an intermediary and mediate today's disputes, is Song Gongming willing to accept it?" ”

Of course Song Jiang is willing, with Zhou Tong coming forward, he can save his reputation, and he doesn't have to swear anymore, he immediately hugged his fists and said: "I am willing to accept Zhou Daxia's mediation!" ”

Zhou Tong turned back to Li Yanqing and smiled: "Li Shaolang, I am the new head of the county school Zhou, are you willing to give me this face?" ”

Li Yanqing nodded, "Master Zhou came forward, how could Yanqing not obey?" ”

"Good! Since both sides accept it, I reluctantly make it difficult. ”

Zhou Tong smiled: "Please tell me first, why did the dispute arise?" ”

Song Jiang briefly said that they were looking for Hu Cheng, and finally said: "Song Jiang and Hu Cheng have no grievances, they just admire his name and want to invite him to join the gang, and they have no other meaning." ”

Li Yanqing also said: "Uncle Hu was harassed by Fang La before fleeing here, he just wants to live a peaceful life, and he doesn't want to get involved in the disputes in the rivers and lakes anymore. ”

Zhou Tong was secretly surprised in his heart, it turned out that the world-famous Iron Hand Hu Cheng was hiding here, no wonder! Zhou Tong glanced at Li Yanqing, and then he understood why Li Yanqing was so skilled at such a young age, it turned out that he was taught by Hu Cheng.

Zhou Tong smiled again: "It turned out to be for Hu Cheng, I once had a relationship with this person, and he is indeed a bold man with extremely high martial arts, not under me, Li Shaolang must know his whereabouts!" ”

Li Yanqing was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "I do know!" ”

"In this case, I came up with two compromise plans, first of all, Brother Song's subordinates broke into the house at night, rudeness first, Li Shaolang counterattacked and hurt people, Li Shaolang released people, Brother Song promised not to pursue it again, the matter is over, can both parties agree?"

Song Jiang said happily, "I can't help but give Zhou Daxia's face, I agree!" ”

Li Yanqing originally didn't believe Song Jiang, but with Zhou Tong here, he didn't dare to offend Song Jiang easily, and he also promised: "I can release people!" ”

Zhou Tong saw that both of them agreed, so he said again: "Brother Song wants to see Hu Cheng, but Li Shaolang doesn't want outsiders to disturb him, it's really a bit difficult, so let's do it!" Li Shaolang told me Hu Cheng's hiding place, Brother Song wrote another letter, and the old man worked hard to hand over the letter to Hu Cheng, Li Shaolang did not violate morality, Brother Song also had the opportunity to recruit talents, as for whether Hu Cheng was willing to join the gang, that was his personal decision, what do you think? ”

This plan is very wonderful, there was an accident tonight, Song Jiang didn't expect to continue to recruit Hu Cheng, but Zhou Tong gave him a chance, of course he was willing, as long as he was sincere in his letter, Hu Cheng might not be tempted, he immediately agreed.

Zhou Tong asked Li Yanqing again, "Is Shaolang willing?" ”

Li Yanqing shook his head resolutely, "I'm sorry, I won't tell anyone about Uncle Hu's whereabouts." ”

Zhou Tong was stunned, looked at Li Yanqing for a moment, and had to smile bitterly: "Okay!" I'll find another way to inquire! ”

Zhou Tong said to Song Jiang again: "I promise to send the letter to Hu Cheng, Song Gongming can go back to the inn to write the letter first, and I will send the hostages back later." ”

Song Jiang saw that Li Yanqing was determined not to betray Hu Cheng, but also admired his character, so he nodded and shouted to Dai Zong and the Ruan brothers: "Let's go!" ”

The four of them rode away, and after a while, the figure disappeared into the depths of the woods, and Zhou Tong smiled: "Li Shaolang, let's talk!" ”
