Chapter 25: Fighting the Tiger and Feasting on the Cottage Robbery between the Little Overlords
Besides, Hu Sanniang and Lu Zhishen were eating wine, and Zhuang Ke reported: "All the big leaders on the mountain are here." Zhishen said: "You wait for a panic." If you sprinkle the family but overturn it, you only care about it, and you will go to the lawsuit and ask for a reward. Take my sword. Sanniang smiled and said, "Master, why use knives and guns?" Let's go out and have a look. At that moment, Hu Sanniang left first, Lu Zhishen took off his straight jacket, pulled up the clothes below, stepped on the ring knife, strode up the Zen staff, and followed him out to the wheat field.
I saw that the big leader was in the middle of the torches, and as soon as he rode to the front of the village, he immediately held a spear and shouted: "Which two dare to risk a zhang qing, Lu Ti Shi Daimyo?" Come out quickly and die. ”
Zhishen was furious and scolded: "Pickled and beaten spine and splashed talents, so that you can recognize the Sprinkle family!" Just as he was about to pick up the Zen staff and roll on the ground to fight, Hu Sanniang stopped him and stepped forward and shouted: "Is the person who is here to fight the tiger general Li Zhong?" ”
After hearing this, the big leader already recognized it, laughed, rolled the saddle and dismounted, skimmed his gun, turned over and bowed: "Hu Guanren, Lu Ti is fine, but you can know that the second brother is in the hands of the two of you." ”
Hu Sanniang laughed there, and when Lu Zhishen looked at it, he recognized it under the torch, it was none other than Li Zhong, the head of the tiger who made guns and sticks to sell medicine. It turns out that the strongman bows down, not saying these two words, which is unfavorable for the army, only called to cut the whisk, which is the word auspicious. Li Zhong immediately brushed it up, stepped forward and asked, "Why did my brother become a monk?" Still here with Hu Guanren? Zhishen said: "Let's talk to you inside." When Mrs. Liu saw it, she only complained: "These two turned out to be strongmen all the way!" ”
At that moment, Hu Sanniang, Lu Zhishen and Li Zhong all went to the hall to catch up, Hu Sanniang helped Lu Zhishen to sit in front and called Mrs. Liu to come out, but the old man did not dare to move forward. Hu Sanniang said: "Taigong is afraid, he is also our brother." When the old man saw that he was a brother, the more panicked he became, and he didn't dare not come out, so Sanniang persuaded him to come out and sit down. Hu Sanniang sat in second place, Li Zhong sat in third place, and Taigong sat in fourth place.
Lu Zhishen told him about his experience of becoming a monk, and Li Zhong said: "Since that day, the younger brother and his brother were separated from the officials and Shi Jin in the Weizhou restaurant, and the next day I heard that my brother killed Zheng Tu. I went to consult with Hu Guanren and Shi Jin, but I didn't know where to go there. When the younger brother heard this, he was arrested, and he left in a hurry, but he passed under the mountain. But the man who was beaten by his brother first set up a village here in Peach Blossom Mountain and called Zhou Tong, the little overlord. At that time, he led people down the mountain to fight with the younger brother, and I won, he left the younger brother on the mountain as the owner of the village, let the first position, teach the younger brother to sit, so as to fall the grass here. ”
Hu Sanniang smiled and said: "When Master Lu attacked the town of Guanxi that day, I was also there, but I couldn't stop it, and I still beat that guy with three punches." Later, Shi Jin and I also left, went to Yan'an Mansion to find Master Wang Jin, and served in the army for most of the year. At that moment, Hu Sanniang will also talk about being in the army. Li Zhong listened to the two deeds, and he was even more convinced.
Zhishen said: "Since my brother is here, Mrs. Liu's family affairs will never be suspended again." He has this daughter, and he will raise it for the rest of his life; Don't fight to be taken away by you, teach him that the old man is lost. Hu Sanniang also persuaded: "There are many good women in the world, don't fight for this one." "Taigong said it, he was overjoyed, arranged for the wine and food to come out, and treated the three of them. The little minions each had two steamed buns, two pieces of meat, and a big bowl of wine, and they were all taught to eat enough. The prince will give out the original gold satin. Lu Zhishen said: "Brother Li, you and he took it away, and this matter is all on you." Li Zhong said: "It's okay to do this. And ask Hu Guanren and his brother to go to live in Xiaozhai for a while, and Mrs. Liu will also go. ”
At that moment, the minions carried the two soft sedan chairs to Hu Sanniang and Lu Zhishen, and brought Zen sticks, knives, and luggage. Li Zhong also got on the horse, and Taigong also took a small sedan chair, but it was early in the morning, and everyone took the road up the mountain.
Hu Sanniang, Zhishen, and Taigong arrived in front of the village, got off the sedan chair, Li Zhong also got off the horse, invited Sanniang and Zhishen to go deep into the village, and sat down in the hall of righteousness, and Li Zhong called Zhou Tong to come out.
Zhou Tong saw the handsome and reckless monk, although he was angry, but he thought: "My brother does not take revenge on me, but invites them to come to the village and let them sit on it. ”
Li Zhong said with a smile: "Brother, come on, these two, one is the Yizhang Qing of the Mighty Northwest Xia Nu, and the other is the one who killed the town of Guanxi with the three punches I tell you every day, and he is him." Zhou Tong touched his head and shouted: "Ah! "Flip over and cut it. Lu Zhishen replied: "Hugh the monster and collide." Hu Sanniang smiled and said: "This is not to fight, not to know." ”
A few sat down, Liu Taigong was in front of him, and Lu Zhishen said: "Brother Zhou, you come to listen to me, Liu Taigong's family affairs, but you don't know that he only has this daughter, and the old age is sent to the end of the year, and the incense is all on him." If you marry and teach him that the old man is lost, he will be afraid of reluctance. You stick to the sprinkle family, abandon it, don't choose a good one. The original gold satin will be here. What's going on in your heart? ”
Hu Sanniang said with a smile: "If you really want that little lady, you will come to the door and support the princess for the rest of your life sooner or later, which is also good." ”
Zhou Channel: "How can a good man be willing to get into trouble?" And listening to the words of the two eldest brothers, the brothers did not dare to come to the door again. Zhishen said: "The big husband does things, but he has to regret it!" "Zhou Tong folded the arrow as an oath. Mrs. Liu thanked him, returned the gold and satin, and went back to the village from the mountain.
Li Zhong and Zhou Tongzhi slaughtered the sheep, arranged a feast, and stayed for several days. Yin Hu Sanniang, Lu Zhi deep in front of the mountain and behind the mountain to watch the scenery, it is a good peach blossom mountain, born fierce, surrounded by steep, only one road to go, all around are steep cliffs. Zhishen looked at it and said: "Sure enough, it's a dangerous place." Sanniang thought: "It's a waste to go to such a dangerous place, and it is occupied by two straw bales." ”
After staying for a few days, Lu Zhishen saw that Li Zhong and Zhou Tong were not generous people, and they were stingy in their work, as long as they went down the mountain, Hu Sanniang also said that he would go to Tokyo to meet the master. The two stayed hard, persuaded the two to fall into the grass in the mountains, and were willing to live there, Lu Zhishen only pushed: "Now that I am a monk, how can I be willing to fall into the grass?" Hu Sanniang also said: "But if you want to visit the master, how can you fall into the grass?" ”
Li Zhong and Zhou Daodao: "Since the two elder brothers refuse to fall into the grass, when they want to go, I will wait for tomorrow to go down the mountain, but how much I get, I will give it to the two elder brothers for travel expenses." The next day, while slaughtering sheep and pigs in the cottage, and making a send-off feast, and arranging rectification, the gold and silver wine vessels were set on the table.
Just as he was about to sit down and drink, he saw the little minions report and said, "There are two cars under the mountain, and more than a dozen people are coming." Li Zhong and Zhou Tong saw the report, and lit up many small minions, leaving only two servants Hu Sanniang and Lu Zhishen to drink. The two heroes said: "The two brothers just care about having a few cups of free food, and the two of us will go down the mountain to get money, and I will see off the two brothers." He led the people down the mountain.
Lu Zhishen was not angry that the two of them were so stingy, and said to Sanniang in a low voice at the moment: "These two people are so stingy, and there is a lot of gold and silver now, but they don't give it to us, and they are going to rob others and give it to us." This is not to treat the official road as a favor, only to suffer others! The Sprinkle family had an idea, and I was surprised to teach this guy to eat. ”
Sanniang laughed in a low voice: "Master Lu doesn't want to get a roll of money and slip away from the back mountain." Lu Zhishen's eyes widened and said, "Hu Guanren, how do you know?" Sanniang said in a low voice: "Master, the things outside the money body, although the two of them are stingy, even if the wealth comes later, we don't want them, we will teach them to be ashamed, why bother to wrap up their belongings and say goodbye?" ”
Lu Zhishen touched Zheng Liang's head and said: "What the official said also has some truth, but he is still a little angry. Sanniang smiled: "The so-called thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, I don't know if they will come to ask us in the future?" After listening to Sanniang's words, Lu Zhishen didn't say more, the two guessed and drank, and drank happily.
When the wine was being eaten to a strong point, a few little minions stumbled, crying dad and calling mother rushed into the hall, and bowed to him: "Two good men, when the two leaders went down the mountain to rob the property, they were killed, and now they are defeated and retreated back to the mountain, and the people on the left and right are blocking the mountain road, so they taught the gang not to hit the mountain, and the two leaders urgently asked the two to go to help, and when they went to the evening, the two leaders were closed." ”
After listening to the words, Lu Zhishen laughed and said: "Hu Guanren, you guessed so accurately, the words just fell, and these two suffered a time and came to beg us." Hu Sanniang frowned, stood up and asked, "You went to five or seven hundred people, and the two leaders are also powerful people, how many people are here?" There are so many of you who can't stop it?! ”
The little minion said, "There are not many people in that group, only nineteen people. The two leaders led us down to the side of the mountain, and were facing the nineteen people, each with his own equipment. The two leaders stepped forward and asked them to leave the money to buy the road, and one of the guests came to fight the big boss with a simple knife, going back and forth, going back and forth, fighting for more than ten times, regardless of victory or defeat. When the two leaders saw this, they were furious, and they rushed forward to shout, and we all went up, and the group of guests also came together, who thought that all these people were not under the big leader, and the little ones taught them to kill thirty or fifty people, and they all fled back to the mountain. The two leaders could not stop them, so they turned and fled. But the gang refused to let go, and went straight up the mountain, but fortunately there was only one way up the mountain, and the two leaders led the people to freeze on the mountain pass path with rocky bows and arrows, but the group still refused to go, and shouted and cursed there. ”
Lu Zhishen also stood up at this time, and said angrily: "Where did the thieves come from, although Li Zhong and Zhou Tong are a little stingy, they are also my own brothers, and they allow people to bully like this?" Hu Guan, you and I will go and take a look! ”
Hu Sanniang nodded and said, "It seems that this group of people are all good players, let's go and take a look." At that moment, the two took the blade, Lu Zhishen took the Zen staff and the ring knife, Hu Sanniang hung up the golden eagle bow and a pot of arrows, took the sun and moon double knife, and followed the little minions down the mountain.
When I came to the mountain pass path, I saw Li Zhong and Zhou Tong with more than 100 little minions guarding there, and when they saw Hu Sanniang and Lu Zhishen, both of them came forward and cried and worshipped: "Two brothers, the group of people under the mountain is really stubborn, the five or seven hundred people we led were killed by them, and they were the only ones who were killed, and now they are still chasing and killing people at the foot of the mountain." ”
Hu Sanniang gasped when she heard this, but there are strong heroes passing by the cottage on the rivers and lakes, even if they can defeat the strongman, there are few who are so arrogant, and they still catch up with the mountain, and they want to kill them all, but I don't know who it is?
At the moment, Sanniang stood on a boulder and looked down, only to see two hundred steps away, gathered three or five people, one sat alone, and the rest were guarded left and right, it seems that this person is the leader, and then when I looked, I saw that there were still seven or eight people back and forth in the mountains to search and kill the little minions who escaped and hid, these little minions were too late to escape back to the mountain, they could only hide in the mountains, this group of people did not let go, and they searched out one to grab a knife and chop over, and there were no superfluous words.
Lu Zhishen saw that his eyes were cracked, and he roared: "These thieves and birds, those who have already begged for mercy will be killed, and the Sprinkle family will go down to avenge you!" When Hu Sanniang took a closer look, she was surprised to find that the person sitting at the end was actually the number one warrior in the Xia Kingdom!
