Out of Jiangning City, and then to the east, to a small town, where there is a ferry, the north can go up from the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, or along the Yangtze River south to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Xiao Mo arrived in this town, the sky was already a little dark. （）

casually found an inn, Xiao Mo asked for an upper room, and then moved in.

didn't wait long, and soon Zhao Guanying and Ma Yidao came galloping on horseback, and after asking the shopkeeper, they found Xiao Mo.

"Erlang ......" followed behind Zhao Guanying, Ma Yidao, Gao Yuanyi and Shi Shikai all hugged their fists at Xiao Mo, and then shouted!

"Hmmm! Thank you very much! Xiao Mo returned the salute with a fist at the four of them, and then let them into the room before closing the door.

The five of them sat down, and Xiao Mo took the lead in speaking: "Brother Ma, I don't know if you are used to staying in Jiangning these days?" ”

"Jiro is polite!" Ma Yidao smiled and said, "Our brothers are all rough people, and we are used to ...... everywhere."

"Not really...... Xiao Mo laughed and said: "After all, Jiangning is not Shandong, regardless of climate and folklore, even if you stay at home honestly every day and live a boring life, it is not as happy as being a mountain king in Shandong!" ”

Ma Yidao laughed hehe: "Erlang said this, hehe......"

"Birds are fading out of their mouths, aren't they?" Xiao Mo suddenly asked a vulgar word.

"Tsk......" Ma slapped his thigh, looked at Xiao Mo and said: "Erlang, I really miss the happy days in Shandong!" ”

"Really?" Xiao Mo looked at Gao Yuanyi and Shi Shikai next to him again.

Since Gao Yuanyi and Shi Shikai followed Ma Yidao into the Xiao family, everyone is not as big and small as before, and they are all treated equally here in Xiao Mo, so the two of them also sit together.

Seeing Xiao Mo's gaze on him, the two thought for a moment, and then both nodded.

Zhao Guanying asked beside her, "Erlang, but what's going on in Shandong?" ”

That's not right! Even if something happens in Shandong, it doesn't matter to Xiao Mo, let alone these people.

Xiao Mo nodded to Zhao Guanying and said, "Brother Zhao, you are still wondering why I called you out, right?" ”

"Hmm!" Not only Zhao Guanying, but also Ma Yidao and the three Shandong men also nodded.

"That's right!" Xiao Mo suddenly said: "Today in the Li Mansion, after Gonggong Yang announced his decree, Li Zhun called my name in the inner hall and asked me to go to Shandong with him ......."

"That's a good thing!" Zhao Guanying said happily, and then asked Xiao Mo, "Erlang agreed?" ”

"What a fart!" Xiao Mo scolded and said, "I didn't agree!" ”

"Didn't say yes?" Zhao Guanying was surprised, with his understanding of Xiao Mo, he didn't look like a shrinking person!

Ma Yidao was more direct, looked at Xiao Mo and asked, "Erlang, why don't you agree!" Following Erlang's men, I have long wanted to go back to Shandong, hehe......" touched his head, Ma Yidao said with a smile: "Of course, I don't want to go back to be the king of the mountain, I just want to find the White Lotus to teach a breath of birdishness!" ”

Gao Yuanyi also nodded and said, "Erlang, you don't know how there is in the Shandong White Lotus Sect, and the brothers are all suffocating for them!" ”

Everyone spoke, Shi Shikai couldn't sit still, and echoed: "That is, if it weren't for the White Lotus Sect that made Shandong into a miasma, how could our happy days come to an end so quickly?" ”

"Yo, seeing everyone's excitement, it seems that I am very dissatisfied with my rejection of Master Li!" Xiao Mo looked at Ma Yidao and a few people with a smile and said, "Everyone wants to go back to Shandong like this?" ”

"Hmm!" This time, even Zhao Guanying nodded.

"Okay, let's talk about it, how to fight?" Xiao Mo clenched his hands into fists, and then looked at the four people in front of him.

Aren't you all indignant? Talking about the White Lotus Sect is like talking about your father-killing enemy, since you want to fight back so much, okay, I won't stop you, but how do you fight?

Could it be that just these few people, and then kill them back? Don't tell jokes, no matter how good Zhao Guanying's skills are, I'm afraid that just a few of you are not enough for hundreds of thousands of members of the White Lotus Sect to stuff their teeth.

Xiao Mo waited for their reply all the time, Ma Yidao was a rough man, he was good at fighting and killing, and asked him what he had in mind, it would be good if he could hold back a fart, as for Gao Yuanyi, forget it, I heard that people don't know how to practice calligraphy, and Ma Yidao can at least write a few words similar to chicken feet and forks.

Among the three, Shi Shikai is a little educated, it is said that he studied in the academy before he went up the mountain, at least he knows what thirty-six strategies, but after listening to Xiao Mo's words, Shi Shikai is also embarrassed, how to fight? Didn't Erlang say it, he rejected Li Zhun, there was no army from the imperial court, so he relied on his own people? Isn't that a fool's dream?

The crux of the problem is that Xiao Mo doesn't want to go to Shandong!

So there was silence in the room, and after being silent for a long time, Xiao Mo shook his head and said, "You guys! ”

Shaking his head, Xiao Mo stood up and walked back and forth in the room.

In fact, Xiao Mo knew in his heart that Li Zhun would not give up, and he would definitely take himself to Shandong, but Xiao Mo still wanted to drag it out, as long as there was no emperor's holy decree, he would not be too lazy to go to this troubled water with Li Zhun.

However, if Lee Joon-jin invites the Holy Decree, can he not go?

First of all, let's not say that I am a civilian who is not qualified to resist the decree, just for the sake of Yunxue, we can't let the future father-in-law look down on us, right?

So Xiao Mocai brought Zhao Guanying over, and then he took Ma Yidao, Gao Yuanyi, and Shi Shikai to discuss it together.

After all, the four of them have all been in Shandong, and among them, Ma Yidao, Gao Yuanyi, and Shi Shikai are all natives of Shandong, and they speak with a Shandong accent, who knows Shandong better than them?

"So be it!" Xiao Mo finally spoke, looked at Ma Yidao and said, "Brother Ma, if you are asked to go back to Shandong now, can you still wave the banner and pull Brother Ma?" ”

Ma Yidao thought for a while, and then said with some uncertainty: "Many brothers have been involved in the Tao of officers and soldiers and the White Lotus Sect before, and if you go back now, it is estimated that there are very few people who can pull them up......"

"How much is very little? Hundred? Two hundred? Xiao Mo asked, and at the end he solemnly told Ma Yidao: "Brother Ma, think about answering clearly, this matter ...... Very important! ”

"About a hundred!" Ma Yidao pondered for a long time, as if he had estimated his old parts one by one in his heart.

"More than a hundred ......" Xiao Mo muttered, and then laughed, it seems that Ma Yidao's memory is still good. Then Xiao Mo asked again: "Please also ask Brother Ma to think about it, I want to be a person with quick hands and clever minds, how many people are like this?" ”

"Agile? Clever minds? Xiao Mo said a bit generally, so Ma Yidao didn't dare to be sure, he glanced at Shi Shikai and said to him: "It's better for you!" ”

Shi Shikai thought for a while and said to Xiao Mo: "Erlang, of course the brothers don't have anything to say, after all, they all live a life of licking blood from the knife edge, but this is a clever mind...... I guess I can make it up, and there will be a lot of it. ”

"How much is a lot?" Xiao Mo said solemnly: "I want an exact number!" ”

"One Hundred ...... No, maybe seventy or eighty! Shi Shikai was sure while thinking.

"Subtract the unreliable people, it's best to pick some brothers who have a grudge against the White Lotus Sect and are dissatisfied with the White Lotus Sect!" Xiao Mo made another request.

Ma Yidao and Zhao Guanying, as well as Gao Yuanyi and Shi Shikai, were all puzzled, what is Erlang going to do?

After thinking about it, Shi Shikai said: "Then it is estimated that there are not many people, but those brothers in our mountain were all homeless and unemployed before, and they finally gathered on the same mountain, and the good days were disturbed by the White Lotus Sect, and they all had some resentment against the White Lotus Sect in their hearts!" ”

Xiao Mo asked, "In other words, there are no longer a few brothers who are reliable and have a grudge against the White Lotus Sect?" ”

"Hmm......" Shi Shikai nodded.

"Brother Ma?" Xiao Mo glanced at Ma Yidao again.

"Erlang, you can't be wrong, Brother Shi used to be on our mountain, but what about the military advisor!" Ma Yidao replied to Xiao Mo with a smile.

"Oh?" Xiao Mo was surprised, stretched out a thumbs up to Shi Shikai, then looked at everyone and asked, "Since everyone wants to go back to Shandong, then I will ask one last question, you ...... Are you willing to follow me, and then join the court......"

"The Imperial Court?" Ma Yidao, Gao Yuanyi and Shi Shikai looked at each other, and finally looked at Zhao Guanying.

Of course, Zhao Guanying hoped that Ma Yidao and they could agree, after all, it was better to serve the country by joining the imperial court than to be a bandit in the mountains!

So Zhao Guanying nodded at them and said, "Brother Ma, could it be that until now, you still can't trust my Erlang?" ”

Ma Yidao and the three of them really don't mean this, they live in the Xiao family these days, and they also see Xiao Mo's personality very clearly, plus some rumors outside, about Xiao Mo's deeds in Luzhou, and from Zhao Guanying's mouth, they know that Xiao Mo used to fight the White Lotus Sect in Shen County, suppress the squire, and drain the water, which made them admire Xiao Mo very much.

Of course, hearing is better than seeing, in these days of the Xiao family, look at Xiao Mo, a commoner, who are the people he has befriended? Li Zhun, needless to say, the old ministers of the two dynasties of the imperial court are still the former prime ministers! Zhou Ji, that is King Wu, the dignified prince, and Xie Yan, the old man of Jiangning's Xie family, and even Xie Yunjing, who is known as Jiangning's aunt, runs to Xiao's house all day long!

What's more, from Zhao Guanying's mouth, Ma Yidao They know that Xiao Mo still has a leg with today's eldest princess! This is unacceptable, the pickled girls have been soaked in the royal family, can you not convince these five big and three rough men?

Therefore, Ma Yidao and they have been living in the Xiao family with Zhao Guanying, and there are idle birds in their mouths, and they have no intention of complaining or leaving, on the contrary, they are also a little excited to follow Xiao Mo and Ma Yidao!

If you don't get excited, follow Erlang, maybe Erlang will become a colt in the future, and we, the bandits, can also turn over and become the generals of the colt, and when the time comes, the bandits will become officers and soldiers...... What's so cool?
