Early in the morning of the second day, as soon as Huang Dalang got up, Sun Qiniang came with a black circle under his eyes, and unfolded a torture flag with black characters on a red background in the courtyard, the flag was four feet wide and five feet long, and a short pole was inserted on the top, which was carried by a long pole, and the tail of the flag and both sides were sewn with strips of cloth.

Looking at the three characters of "Tiandao League" on the flag, it is also cut and sewn with black cloth according to his own calligraphy, not to mention any pen power, but it is still very imposing.

After a while, Lei Bao, Sun Li and others and the four elders of the Sun family also gathered, and Huang Dalang asked Sun Li to tell everyone the meaning of the banner of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, which naturally won everyone's applause.

Then Huang Dalang took out a stack of paper money tickets from his arms and handed them to Sun Lidao: "Big brother, here is a thousand runs, and I will share it with everyone in a while, and I will exchange it for real money and silver as a coil." Counting the Huashi Gang smuggled by Chencang this time, they must all be large pieces of gold and silver, so after leaving Huangzhou Mansion, you have to buy some mules and horses to facilitate the journey. ”

He said to Uncle Sun Qi: "Uncle Seven, I plan to spend Shigang this time, but I'm afraid that you and Uncle Nine will have to pick the beam, and my plan is also simple, first knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, then beat the grass and startle the snake, and then wait for work, and so on...... will be able to succeed, but even if the strategy is so, it still needs the seventh uncle to change the opportunity, and he is tired! ”

Uncle Sun Qi stroked his beard and smiled: "Not bad! The strategy is okay, Da Lang is at home with peace of mind, and it will be interesting to see how the old decay is performed. ”

There is not much to say about this gossip, Sun Li, Sun Xin, Lei Bao, Lu family father and son, Hua Tong, Zhu Gao, Zhang He and Hu Ren, as well as the four old uncles of the Sun family, left the Huang family in twos and threes!

After sending everyone away, Huang Dalang was also determined, and took Fushou Shi Ran to the school hall.

Huangzhou in September, it should be cool and warm, the leader of the Huangzhou Mansion escorting the summer tax is Yao Rong, the big boss, and the deputy team is the county government's Ma Kuai Bantou Ma Dawan, this kind of errand he is familiar with the two of them, so according to the regulations, the weather is 60 miles every day, the sky is cloudy 50 miles, and the rain is 30 miles, and they walked unhurriedly for more than ten days, and only arrived in Gushi County in the east of Gwangju on September 15.

These days are quite peaceful, almost a thousand people, a huge team of more than 50 carts, and a team of 100 bandits and road bandits dare to come to fight the autumn wind. As for the Huashi Gang team that should be enshrined, it was also very well-behaved, except for the request to stuff the cart transporting the Huashi in the middle of the team, but it was also safe.

But Yao Rong, who was sitting on a strong donkey, raised his eyes to look at the sun, and found that it was almost noon, so he called an accompanying tax collector and asked, "Where are you now, and how far is it from Zhoujiadian?" ”

The tax collector didn't think about it, so he replied: "Da Zhisi, now this place is the boundary between Zhoushang Village and Zhouxia Village, and more than 20 miles further on, you will reach Zhoujiadian." ”

Yao Rong couldn't help nodding and said: "Yesterday, I saw that the sunset was good, so I set off today, and sure enough, the weather was refreshing and easy to walk, and now I walked half way before noon." Say hello and rush to Zhoujiadian early, so that you can rest early. ”

The tax collector agreed, and went to the rear team, but at this time he saw the horse catching the head horse and the big bowl of the horse to catch up. He is now riding a yellow horse in the prime of life, and he is even more tall and mighty when he sits on the horse, and when he comes to Yao Rong's side, he is more than half of his body, but he said: "Yao Zhisi, the front is Zhouxia Village, do you think you can rest in the village and let the brothers use some dry food?" ”

Yao Rong glanced up at Ma Dawan, but shook his head and said: "I just asked, only more than 20 miles away is Zhoujiadian, I will rest early when I arrive at Zhoujiadian, and I will use dry food while walking." ”

Ma Dawan grinned and said, "It's only more than twenty miles, but the priest forgot to cross Zhoujiapo?" It's okay for the team to wait, I'm afraid that this flower stone gang won't be able to pass! ”

Yao Rong listened, then thoughtfully looked back, but could also see the Ying Fengju cart dragged by four strong and healthy cattle unhurriedly following the team, but look at the bull nose of these carts have white foam, then know that this ox power should be almost consumed, and the cart loaded with flowers, trees and strange stones are all lengthened and widened, but I am afraid that it will be really difficult to get on the Zhoujiapo that is not steep, but it is also difficult to walk, so he said: "When you get to the head of Zhouxia Village, and see how it is, then make plans!" ”

Ma Dawan nodded in reply, and then turned the horse's head to go to the rear team to patrol.

After walking again, I could see the village four or five miles away, but at this time, I heard that there was a sudden commotion from the front team that opened the road, Yao Rong hurriedly slapped the donkey and whipped it up to check, and saw a gray-clothed man on horseback, covering his face with a black scarf, holding a big flag with the three words of the Heavenly Dao League, and the big horn was blocked in the middle of the official road.

Yao Rong frowned, and assigned a small tax collector to come forward to ask, and soon saw him running back quickly: "Oshi, the other party claims to be a strong man of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, and wants to deal with the person who should serve the bureau for the Heavenly Dao, but he promised not to embarrass us, but he just asked us not to cover up." ”

Yao Rong smiled when he heard this, and said, "Hehe! It's time to come, so go and find that envoy! ”

Immediately the team stopped, and the little official quickly brought Zhang Zhizhi and Ma Dawan together, this Zhang Zhizhi was about thirty years old, with a leopard's head and ears, and a strong body like a bear, riding a brown mare with miscellaneous hair, only to hear the Zhang envoy shouting: "What is the priest looking for?" ”

Yao Rong pointed to a man and a horse standing on the official road in the distance and said to this envoy: "Huh! Zhang made the envoy, but there were thieves who came to plant the flag, and it was difficult to make it difficult! ”

"Oh yes! Where did the thief come from, and he dared to plant a flag? Zhang Zhizhi burst into applause, but he slapped the horse and left, laughing and said: "All the beasts and birds are hidden along the way, but I am called out of the birds, and when I go to capture him, I will go back and talk to the priest." ”

Seeing this reckless man walking away, Yao Rong looked at Ma Dawan on the side and said, "Born in the Taishi Mansion, he is really bold!" I don't know how this person's martial arts are? ”

Ma Dawan shook his head and smiled: "Three or five ordinary catches are fast, but it is helpless, but it is difficult to say when you meet a hero in the green forest." ”

Just when the two of them made it clear that they wanted to see the joke, Zhang Zhi, who was born in the Taishi Mansion, had already slapped his horse and killed the person who planted the flag in the road, but when he saw him pat the knife box under his waist, he pulled out a four-foot-long military knife, and then put on a posture to cut the opponent and rushed over with a knife.

However, when the galloping horse galloped within ten feet of this man, he clearly saw that the man's eyes on the face towel narrowed slightly, and seemed to show a disdainful smile, and when he was about to be angry, he saw him thrust the banner in his hand into the ground, and then took out a nine-foot spear from under the horse's belly.

It was too late, it was too fast, and the man who planted the flag shook the spear with one hand, and the head of the spear made of bright silver rushed to the throat of Zhang Zhizhi like a silver dragon.

The distance was too far, and others couldn't hear any sound, so they saw that Zhang Zhi's horse galloped like wind and thunder to kill the hero, but the hero sat on the horse and did not move, and felt a spear in his hand to make a mistake with Zhang Zhi's side, and then saw Zhang Zhizhi lose the Pu knife in his hand and cover his throat with both hands, and ran out of more than ten steps with the horse, and then pushed the gold mountain and fell from the horse's back like a jade pillar.
