There are rules in the rivers and lakes, and there are rankings in the cottages.

People in the rivers and lakes usually drink wine and eat meat in large bowls, but when it is time to talk about the rules, it is even more serious than the temple.

What is the occasion now?

When the heads of the two villages meet! On the rivers and lakes, it is equivalent to a meeting between the heads of state of the two countries!

On this occasion, the two leaders will discuss, and the others are not qualified to intervene! Hou Junji suddenly spoke, to say small, it's not big or small, to say big, this is tantamount to ignoring the leader, it's a precursor to infighting!

Chaogai's Tianwang Village, unlike other villages, is a combination of large and small salt owls. The other villages, without saying anything in person, behind their backs, all called Tianwang Village a rabble.

Chao Gai himself knew this, but he was powerless to change.

Hou Junji has no rules, and Chao Gai is not happy in his heart. And Shan Xiongxin deliberately talked about "rules", which was to imply that there were no rules in Tianwangzhai, and he was poking at the sore spot.

It's good that Shan Xiongxin didn't mention it, but mentioning this matter is even more embarrassing than slapping his face in public.

Chao Gai angrily slapped a few cases, and the atmosphere in the room instantly became tense.

The people in the room were all staring at Chao Gai.

Continue to unite, or break completely, right now!

"Hahahaha......" Chao Gai suddenly burst out laughing. You are cunning enough, and you have said everything, so that I have nothing to say. ”

"Hey, hey, hey......" Shan Xiongxin smiled.

"However, I can't come in vain, I have a few words, I want to talk to Shan Datou privately, can I?"

"Okay. Let's go out for a walk? ”

The two got up and went out. Xu Shiyun and the others followed and walked out.

Wang Bodang glanced at Hou Junji, quite mocking. Hou Junji's eyes narrowed slightly, and his cheeks quickly agitated a few times......

……

Not far outside, is the salt pond.

Although it is not as magnificent as the sea, it is just as boundless. Under the spring sun, salt crystals seem to be transformed into dancing diamonds, shining with dazzling brilliance.

Two burly men walked forward slowly, and several subordinates followed from a distance.

Spring. It is the time when the brine insects breed, and many birds gather here to enjoy their gluttonous feast.

A flock of black-winged stilts is foraging for food, and a flock of yellow-billed egrets are flying in from afar. Stilts are disturbed. It fluttered its wings and quickly landed nearby, continuing to enjoy its food.

Chao Gai sighed: "Although these birds are not of the same genus, they can share the same land. It's enviable! ”

Chao Gai touched the scene, and Shan Xiongxin was also quite emotional. The five villages of Yanchi, just like these flocks of birds, share the gift of Yanchi.

The two have known each other for many years, and in the process of the salt pond separation, they became friends and formed an alliance.

It's just that when the two of them set up their own mountains and became the leaders of the two villages, there were fewer opportunities to meet, and the identity of the big boss. Let the two of them have to save face and protect the interests of their respective cottages on formal occasions.

Now, without the presence of subordinates, the two are no longer the leaders of different cottages, but friends and brothers.

Shan Xiongxin leaned over and picked up a piece of gravel covered with salt crystals, and with his big hand, the salt rustled down his fingers.

"Dude, how are you doing?" Shan Xiongxin is younger than Chao Gai.

"Hey, make do."

Shan Xiongxin nodded. With a flick of the arm, the gravel swept towards the stilted sandpiper with a strong wind.

"Hoo ......"

The frightened bird soared into the air and circled. Again he looked for the place where he fell, and continued to hunt.

Shan Xiongxin refers to a flock of stilts. "We might as well be this bird."

Chao Gai squinted his eyes and sighed, "yes." The birds are frightened, and they can fly around and stop foraging. We're different, the wind and waves together. If you want to settle down again, it's hard. ”

Shan Xiongxin also sighed and said, "Alas, yes, the good days of Yanchi, I'm afraid it's coming to an end." ”

"Brother, listen to what my brother said, take advantage of the present time, make plans as soon as possible."

Both of them are heroic people, and when they say that, they are commensurate with each other, and they no longer have to wear the mask of a big boss, and they no longer have to hide it.

"Brother, what are your plans?"

"Me?" Chao Gai smiled bitterly and shook his head, his secret could not be told to anyone. "I, I just want to find a barren mountain and wilderness where no one is there and spend my old age in peace."

"Brother, what you said is too deflating, right? If that's the case, why bother to pin your head to your waist and eat this bowl of rice? Let's work hard, don't want to be a high-ranking official, we always have to save some money, eat meat and drink wine and be happy, right? Why does my brother want to be a hermit? ”

"Brother, brother didn't shake you." Chao Gai turned his head and stared at Shan Xiongxin, "Don't blame my brother for not telling you the truth, but my brother is really different from you." Official meal, the elder brother is blessed to enjoy in this life, and after leaving the salt pond, he can live a peaceful life, and the elder brother will be satisfied. ”

"How could I not believe my brother." Shan Xiongxin said, "It's just that things may not be as bad as my brother thinks." Don't tell my brother that I'm really looking for a way out. It's just that I can't make up my mind. ”

Chao Gai smiled. "If I'm not mistaken, you've discussed it with Lao Xu, right?"

"Yes."

Chao Gai put away his smile, although the subordinates in the distance couldn't hear it, Chao Gai still used a very low voice to persuade: "Lao Xu, this person is different from you and me. His advantage is that his brain is active, and the disadvantage is that his brain is too active. ”

"Hahaha, that's right." Shan Xiongxin smiled, pointed at himself, and then pointed at Chao Gai, "Brother and I, the advantage is stupid, and the disadvantage is too stupid." ”

The two laughed loudly.

After laughing, Shan Xiongxin put away his jokes and said seriously: "He does things differently from us. We do things that are good for our friends and brothers. And he is different, he always has to think about it repeatedly, and he will not do what is not good for him. ”

"Well, yes. Old Xu is too ghostly, when he came to Yanchi to join me, the brothers in the village didn't want to see him, because of this. Listen to my brother's words, find a way back, believe in yourself, don't believe him. He's not a bad guy, but with you and me, I'm not all the way. ”

Shan Xiongxin nodded. "Brother, and the state, has always been your way of shipping. I heard that the new Taishou Liu Mang has some means. ”

Chao Gai knew Shan Xiongxin's intention to inquire about Liu Mang. "There are many rumors, some say that he killed many family heads, and some say that he has won over many family heads. None of that, though. If you want to know him, you don't have to ask me. ”

"Oh?"

"Qin Shubao is on the road, everyone picks a thumbs up. Isn't it enough for him to abandon the rivers and lakes and defect to Liu Mang? ”

Shan Xiongxin was silent.

"Uncle Qin Bao came to Hedong to buy salt, I turned a blind eye to this, not for myself, but just to let my brothers pave the way for themselves."

"Brother is really optimistic about Liu Mang?"

"I don't have that much to think about anymore. However, according to the information I know, what Liu Mang did in Taiyuan and Yanmen would be the same as you and me. is different, but he is in the officialdom, you and I are in the rivers and lakes. In other words, he's the one who we're all the way to. ”

Shan Xiongxin nodded silently...... (To be continued.) )
