It was a night with a half moon high, the sky was full of stars, it was really a moonlit starry sky, and the air was fresh. Zhao Yougong lay on the roof, patiently observing the situation in the camp, although he waited for two hours, but the effort was not in vain, just after the hour, he saw more than 20 rough-clothed men sneakily running out of the camp, as for the two minions guarding the door, not only did not stop them, but also ran out of the camp with a broken wooden gun with a group.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Yougong was also very staggered, Ah Zhu was not so particular, covering his mouth and giggling, "Hehe, Du Yan is also very stupid, I know that I rob and rob, and now I occupy half of Dengzhou, so what if it is still on the mountain?" ”

"Be quiet, don't be heard!" King Zhao Xiaojun raised his eyebrows and glanced at Ah Zhu, touched the roof tiles, wet, and waited for those people to go away, before pulling Ah Zhu back to the inn in the opposite direction.

On the second day, the three of them changed their clothes and rode away towards Shunyang while the sun was warm. From Xichuan to Shunyang, it is also an hour's journey, less than noon, the three of them came to the north gate of Shunyang, so that Zhao Yougong was speechless is that there is a team of people standing at the north gate, this team of people and horses stand on both sides, in front of a wooden pole in the middle, pedestrians regardless of traders or ordinary people, have to pay taxes. Xichuan County Lidu Bai collects ransom, and Shunyang collects tolls, which really does not change the true nature of mountain bandits.

Dongfang Jin didn't get off the horse, he came to the door slowly with the reins of the horse, and the two minions raised their wooden guns, almost not forking the Dongfang officials, "Hey, hurry down and pay the tax!" ”

The little minion spoke arrogantly, circled the horse twice, and turned to shout at the head of the gatekeeper. "Angkor. How much should I charge for this? ”

The man called Angkor had a pair of triangular eyes. The eyebrows are flush and a little yellowish, and the appearance is also short and thin. Hearing the minion shout, he stretched and walked over with a branch in his mouth. This Angkor is also a good person, he first glanced at Dongfang Jin and the three of them a few times, and after confirming that it was a raw face, he pouted and said seriously. "A good horse, a toll fee of 500 yuan, three horses will be collected."

Listening to Angkor's words, Dongfang Jin's brows jumped wildly, and he scolded even more in his heart, he really dared to ask for it, the toll for three horses was consistent, and after collecting it a few times, the money for one horse came out. No wonder many people take a detour and collect tolls like this. Who can withstand it? Dongfang Jin made up his mind not to pay the money, and he pulled out a goose feather fan from the horse. Fingers picked at the gray hair on the sideburns and easily slapped it twice. The actions of the Oriental officials fell into the eyes of Angkor, but it was a different situation, Angkor thought he had met a fool, pointed at Dongfang Jin and showed his mouth full of big yellow teeth and laughed, "What the hell?" Children, take a look, this idiot fanned in the winter, and his head was kicked by a donkey? ”

"Brother Ang, according to the younger brother, this guy was not kicked by a donkey, but kicked by a horse, haha" More than a dozen minions laughed wildly, and the passers-by next to him also stopped to watch, but Dongfang Jin was very calm, he glanced at Angkor, and said with a faint smile, "Is enough laughing?" When you have enough laughter, you will go and send a message to Leader Wang or Mr. Li, and say that Longmen Dongfang Jin wants to see him. ”

Ga, now Angkor can't stop laughing, what Dongfang Jin, he doesn't know, but he still knows something about Longmen. I used to hear people on the road say that the Longmen sand bandits are crisscrossed the pass, and there are few opponents, even Han Yongming is also working under Guo Sancai, and the power of the Longmen sand bandits, even the leader of Wang Da has a lot of envy. Look at the three of them, especially the person who spoke, his expression was calm, but he couldn't fake it, could it be that this fool who was not good-looking, and fanned in winter was really the old fox?

"Hmph, what are you still doing? If you don't hurry up, if you make a mistake, if a certain family doesn't kill you, the big boss will also kill you! ”

Dongfang Jin's tone was light, but he stabbed into Angkor's chest like a knife, this short and thin man was clever, and quickly arched his hands to flatter, "Sir, wait a minute, the little one will go!" ”

Angkor turned around and hurriedly ran towards the city, while Dongfang Jin took two steps back and waited quietly with Zhao Yougong. About a moment of incense, I heard the sound of horses' hooves, and a gray-robed man came on the North Gate Street, this man was over forty years old, his hair was scattered, and the top of his head was a little bare, and he looked very strange. From a distance, this person is slender and long, with high cheekbones, a pair of figure-eight eyebrows, and the whole person is a little gloomy.

This person is Li Zhu, known as Mr. Jin Jian, in the Huaixi area, most people know that Li Zhu's strategy is not bad, but few people know that his swordsmanship is also quite superb. Hitting the horse and coming to the door, Li Zhu squinted and kept looking at Dongfang Jin and the three of them, his eyes were very cold and sharp, Dongfang Jin looked calm, smiling leisurely. After a while, Li Zhu changed his cold face and laughed, "Brother Dongfang, you came suddenly, I thought someone was pretending to be a brother before, but now I look at it, it's really you, brother." ”

"Haha, after five years, Brother Li's demeanor is better than in the past!" Dongfang Jin bowed his hand and returned the salute, he and Li Zhu were indeed old acquaintances, but they could only be regarded as acquaintances.

To Dongfang Jin's words, Li Zhu smiled disapprerovingly, he took two steps forward, and squinted at the two people behind Dongfang Jin, "Brother Dongfang, you come to Shunyang, why don't you notify me in advance, so that you can be prepared for your brother, right?" ”

"Why prepare? You and I are both reckless people, with enough food and sleep, can't Brother Li even have a full meal and a thatched hut? ”

"Haha, Brother Dongfang laughed, hurry up and please!" Li Zhu opened his mouth and smiled, waving his hand to signal the minions to get out of the way, he looked very enthusiastic, but there were a few more calculations in his heart. There is a way to go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, but the Longmen sand bandits and Dengzhou have never had any contact, Dongfang Jin suddenly came, there must be something important. And what made Li Zhu even more hesitant was the knife-wielding man next to Dongfang Jin, with a resolute face and a blade like ink, if he guessed correctly, this is Han Yongming, the mad knife in Guanzhong, right?

Li Zhu was pondering, why wasn't Zhao Yougong like this? Every time I hear that Dongfang brother, I can't help but think of the Oriental sect leader who has dominated the rivers and lakes for thousands of years, although the Dongfang officials are a little evil, but they shouldn't be able to swing a knife from the palace and become a woman, right? As soon as he thought of the Oriental officials smearing carmine, pinching the orchid fingers in their hands, and snorting "His Royal Highness hates it", King Zhao Xiaojun felt like vomiting.

Ah Zhu was very curious, why did His Highness grin and raise his eyebrows, did he think of something again? I was puzzled, but I didn't dare to ask, so I could only wait until I had the opportunity to ask again in the future.

With Li Zhu leading, he was no longer hindered by anything. Under Wang Qing, in addition to Du Bai, Li Zhu has the highest status. Of course, Li Zhu can have such a high status, not only because he can give advice, but also because he was the matchmaker of Wang Qing and Duan Sanniang. When Wang Qing fled to Dingshan Fort, he was Li Zhu's matchmaker.

Wang Qing did not live in the county government like Du Bai, but occupied the most luxurious mansion in Shunyang, and the original owner of the mansion had already been sent to the palace of the king of Hades by Wang Qing. Now Wang Qing is not the little thief who behaved with Duan Sanniang in Fangzhou Dingshan Fort, since he went out of Fangzhou to occupy half of Dengzhou, Wang Qing also began to consider the name, he felt that the title of what kind of Wang Zhai Lord was too unsightly, so he gave himself the title "King of Chu". Anyway, in the Shunyang realm, when you see him, you have to shout His Royal Highness the King of Chu, otherwise Wang Qing will definitely be unhappy.

Entering the so-called Chu Wangfu, his own minions ran to pass the word, and after waiting at the gate for a long time, the minions came to report that Wang Qing had an invitation, and Li Zhucai led a few people towards the living room, and on the way, he did not forget to instruct, "Brother Dongfang, I will see the leader of the king in a while, and I want to call His Royal Highness the King of Chu, remember, don't shout wrong." ”

Dongfang Jin puffed out his chest and nodded with the corners of his mouth curled, "Brother Li, don't worry, junior brother knows." ”

The living room of the Chu Wangfu is very large, the two banyan trees in front of the living room are separated, there is a rockery in front of the banyan tree, it is commendable that in this winter, there is gurgling water falling on the rockery. Sure enough, it was an elegant courtyard, but a copper tripod in front of the living room destroyed this elegant style. How to say that? It's like a group of literati and scholars are chatting happily, and suddenly a nouveau riche who only knows money pops up, and he is vulgar, and the vulgar is unbearable.

Dongfang Jin stopped and looked at the decorations in the courtyard with interest, and there was some sarcasm in his eyes from time to time. Li Zhu is also a smart person, he smiled faintly, "Brother Dongfang, please come inside, His Royal Highness the King of Chu is a martial artist, and he is not too particular." ”

Not very particular? It's too particular, if you don't pay attention to it, why put a big copper tripod in front of the door? The simple and elegant Jiangnan courtyard is obviously a simple and elegant courtyard, and if you have to get some solemn and domineering atmosphere, it is simply a snake to add to it. I was disdainful in my heart, but I didn't show it on my face. As Li Zhu walked forward, he crossed the stone steps under the banyan tree and came to the living room. At this time, the double doors of the living room opened, and the qiē inside could be seen clearly.

The living room is large, with a man and a woman sitting on the main seat. The man was over thirty years old, with phoenix eyes and thick eyebrows, a face like a crown of jade, a flush forehead, and long flowing hair. In addition, he was six feet long, with broad shoulders and a good face. If the man is handsome, the woman is the other extreme, she has a face like a millstone, fat and shaking, and a black mole on her left cheek, on which a black hair sticks out. With a fat face and big eyes, hair hastily pulled up, thick limbs, and a pair of black cloth boots on his feet, he was lying on his back on a chair, stepping on the corner of the chair with one foot, and constantly beating the beat.

Zhao Yougong grinned uncontrollably, this man and woman are Wang Qing and Duan Sanniang, right? A handsome Langjun, a sow-looking Yaksha, if these two are love at first sight, it is simply nonsense.

Azhu couldn't help but swallow her saliva, this Sanniang looks really scary. As soon as he thought of Hu Sanniang's appearance, Azhu was speechless for a while, they were all called Sanniang, why is the gap so big?

One is as beautiful as a flower, one is as beautiful as a sow, one is as cold as a fairy, and the other is vulgar. (To be continued......)
