"Holy! It turns out that Fang Shiyu has this virtue?! I understood that the little black fat man in front of me who was fatter, shorter and uglier than himself turned out to be the famous Fang Shiyu! The suave, handsome and chic Fang Shiyu on movies and television! The contrast was so great that our Lu Daxian couldn't believe his ears and eyes, and shouted at the little black fat man with round eyes: "You are really Fang Shiyu? Did I recognize the wrong person? ”

"I'm Fang Shiyu, what's wrong?" The little black fat man scratched his head and replied, not understanding why Lu Daxian Ling was so excited and nervous.

Lu Daxian Ling opened his mouth and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, Fang De and Miao Cuihua next to him looked at each other, and he couldn't understand why the fat man in front of his eyes knew the name of his family so well, let alone why this big white fat man was so excited. After a little deliberation, Fang De asked tentatively, "Dare to ask this gentleman, how did you know the name of the grass people's family?" Do you know us? ”

"This ......." Lu Daxian Ling also came back to his senses and found that he had revealed some flaws, but Lu Daxian Ling was not in a hurry, and immediately returned the salute with a slight turn of his eyes...... I have admired it for a long time, and I just hate that I can't see it. So when I heard the name of Fang Shiyu and Fang Xiaoxia today, the juniors immediately guessed the names of the seniors and Mrs. Miao. ”

"Is that really the case?" Fang De was skeptical, and said that our Fang family is a little famous, but the fame is only limited to Zhaoqing, and there is no fame in the world at all, you can hear the name of our family as far away as Yunnan, I'm afraid it's a bit suspenseful, right? Thinking of this, Fang De, who had already noticed the identity of Lu Daxian Lingxi's election official when worshipping in the common mound, secretly shuddered, and exclaimed in his heart: "Could it be that our Fang family's secret anti-Qing restoration has been targeted by Wu Sangui's lackey?" ”

"Fang Daxia, Mrs. Miao, it's better to meet by chance." Lu Daxian Ling said affectionately: "Since the juniors are destined to meet you, then the juniors want to be a host, how about inviting Fang's seniors and their families to have dinner in the restaurant?" Saying that, Lu Daxian Ling also pointed to the three tigers of Guangzhou who had gradually stood up, and said casually: "There are also these three strong men, Liangshan heroes don't know each other, how about going to drink a glass of water and wine together?" Liang Zi just now, touch a glass on the wine table and dissolve it. ”

"Thank you, sir, then you're welcome." When the brothers of the Liu family heard this, they hurriedly agreed-they were disturbed by Fang Shiyu just now, they didn't even have time to ask for money for their performances, and they were worried that they were only afraid of starving today.

"Okay, then you're welcome." As soon as Fang Shiyu heard that someone was treating, he immediately cheered again, "I like to eat crispy roast suckling pig, I want three!" ”

"No problem, when I get to the restaurant, I will immediately order three roast suckling pigs for Fang Shaoxia alone." Lu Daxian, who was bent on pulling Fang De's family under his command as a dog, agreed with a smile.

Never thought that the sky would not fulfill people's wishes, Fang De suddenly grabbed his son, glanced at Fang Shiyu, and then bowed his hand to Lu Daxian Ling and said: "Thank you, sir, for your kindness, but Mr. misunderstood, although the old family is a little bit of a fist, but it is only for self-defense on the way to business and goods, and there is nothing else, let alone such an exaggerated reputation as Mr. said." As for Mr.'s invitation, I'm very sorry, the old family has to go north to Hangzhou to sell silk today, and they really can't go to the appointment, please forgive me. ”

"Dad, aren't we going to Quanzhou Shaolin Temple......?" Fang Shiyu was anxious, blurted out a rebuttal, but was interrupted by Fang De with his eyes. At that moment, Fang De bowed his hand to Lu Daxian Ling, said "farewell", and then pulled up his son and wife and turned around and left, Lu Daxian Ling was anxious, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull Fang Shiyu, and said anxiously: "Fang Daxia, Fang Shaoxia, please stay." ”

"Don't touch my son!" Miao Cuihua suddenly slashed at Lu Daxian's wrist with a knife, opened Lu Daxian's fat hand, and scolded coldly, "Dog Han Annihilation!" After scolding, Miao Cuihua picked up Fang Shiyu and walked away, but Fang Shiyu was a little unconvinced, "Dad, mother, I'm hungry, I want to eat roast suckling pig ......." ”

"Silly son, if you want to eat roast suckling pig and buy it for you, don't eat that person, be careful to eat ...... bad stomach."

"Fuck, what did you say?" Kong Fanlin was not happy when he heard Miao Cuihua's words, and he took two steps forward to chase after him. Lu Daxian hurriedly grabbed him and said in a low voice: "Don't chase, you won't be able to beat them if you catch up." Kong Fanlin thought carefully about the martial arts that Fang Shiyu had revealed just now, shivered, and finally retreated.

"It's strange, why does Miao Cuihua, a mature woman and wife, scold me for being a dog?" Lu Daxian Ling was a little puzzled, and after recalling it carefully, Lu Daxian Ling suddenly realized, "By the way, when I was in the common mound, Kong Fanlin, an idiot, mentioned that I was a Western election official, and Miao Cuihua's family certainly had to think that I was a dog." , it's troublesome now, if you want to take Fang Shiyu over as a dog, I'm afraid it may not be a big surname. ”

"This gentleman, Fang Daxia's family has already left, do you still invite us to dinner?" Liu Zhen asked timidly-Although the Three Tigers of Guangzhou are third-rate characters in terms of character and martial arts, but the people who Lu Daxian Ling really wants to treat are Fang De's family, and the Three Tigers of Guangzhou are still eyesight enough to see it.

"Haha, of course please." Fortunately, Lu Daxian Ling is not a stingy and snobbish villain, although he suffered some setbacks in wanting to accept Fang Shiyu as a dog's leg, he still laughed and took the hand of the three tigers of Guangzhou, and said with a smile: "Let's go, you lead the way, go to the best restaurant in Guangzhou, and have a few cups." ”

"Thank you, sir, then you're welcome." Liu Zhen was overjoyed, took out the empty money bag again, and said with a wry smile: "Don't hide it, sir, the three of us brothers actually don't have a penny on our bodies, and even the stone slabs used to break the big stones on our chests are on credit in the stone field, and I originally planned to ask for a few dollars to pay off the bill, but Fang Shaoxia made such a fuss, and I didn't know how to pay the account on the stone field." ”

"Haha, it's a trivial matter, Erlang, take five taels of silver to pay off the debts to Liu Zhuangshi." Lu Daxian waved his hand generously, pulled Liu Zhen and the others away, and said with a smile: "Don't talk about these unpleasant things, drink first." The brothers of the Liu family were very grateful, and they hurriedly stepped forward to lead the way, and led Lu Daxian Ling and his party all the way to Yunxianglou, the best restaurant in Guangzhou.

After entering the restaurant and ordering four good banquets, Lu Daxian Ling and his party began to eat and drink. When they heard that Lu Da County was a current incumbent official, the three tigers of Guangzhou were taken aback, and quickly changed the name of Lu Da County, and introduced themselves that their three brothers were from Huaxian County, Guangzhou, and practiced martial arts since childhood, followed their parents and elders to make a living by playing tricks, and later their parents returned to their hometown to farm, Liu Zhen and other cousins ran up the rivers and lakes alone, but their luck was too bad, and there was no chance of development. is often so poor that there is no overnight rice, so none of the three brothers has ever got a daughter-in-law, and finally today they met Lu Daxian Ling and Fang Shiyu's family.

"Three strong men, since you have been practicing martial arts for a living since childhood, then your skills must be good." Lu Daxian asked curiously: "In that case, why don't the three strong men go to join the army?" Although the salary of a soldier is not high, it is better than starving for a full meal on the rivers and lakes, right? ”

"My lord, it's not that we don't want to join the army." Liu Xu said with a sad face: "Don't tell your lordship, in fact, our three brothers came to Guangzhou this year, because they heard that the eldest prince of Pingnan Wangfu was recruiting troops, and they came to join the army to find a way to live." ”

"That didn't happen? The recruiting general is so eyeless? "The Lu Daxian Order is a little strange, although the martial arts of the three brothers of the Liu family are high or low Although the Lu Daxian Order can't be seen, but just with the pimple flesh of these three brothers and the rare tall figure among the southerners, they should be in demand in that army.

"It's not that the general who recruits the troops looks down on us, it's the prince of Pingnan and the court who don't allow the eldest prince to recruit troops." Shen Xin, the cousin of the Liu brothers, also cried and explained: "Originally, when we went to join the army, our three brothers passed the test whether they were running with weights or bows, arrows, knives and guns. However, the prince gave an order, saying that the imperial court did not allow the Guangdong army to expand further, so this year, the eldest prince recruited none of the 800 elite soldiers, and all of them were sent home. ”

"Since the people around the eldest prince appreciate you so much, why don't you three brothers be left alone?" Lu Daxian asked alone: "It shouldn't be a big problem for the eldest prince to recruit three or four more personal soldiers around him, right?" You didn't ask for the general surnamed Zhang? ”

"My lord, we are all so poor that we are starving to death, how could we not ask that General Li?" Liu Zhen said helplessly: "But the general named Li Tianzhi said that now the imperial court is keeping a close eye on the prince's army, and it is not enough to have more than one or less, and he doesn't know how many quarrels he has had for the sake of the eldest prince and the prince, so he didn't dare to provoke the prince again, and told us to go home first and wait to see if there is a chance in the future." ”

Lu Daxian Ling stopped talking, and thought in his heart, "According to this, Shang Zhixin's ambitious anti-bone boy does have a lot of contradictions with his Han Annihilation father Shang Kexi in terms of targeting the army, Shang Zhixin wants to enhance his strength, and Shang Kexi is afraid that the Tartar court will be suspicious, so he does not allow his son to expand the army - can I take advantage of such a contradiction?" ”

"Lord Lu." When Lu Daxian Ling was pondering, Liu Zhen, Liu Xu and their cousin Shen Xin discussed in a low voice, and suddenly left the table and knelt down together, kowtowed to Lu Daxian Ling and said: "My lord, you also know the situation, the little ones really have no way out, please send mercy to the adults to take us in." Anyway, my lord, you are going to be the county commander, what is lacking around you is people, bring our three brothers, you look at the silver lord, just eat and live, our three brothers will definitely go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire for you, and repay your great kindness. ”

"! originally wanted to bring Fang Shiyu to be a dog's leg, but why did these three nobodies who sold strong pills come here? Lu Daxian Ling smiled a little bitterly, and after a little calculation, Lu Daxian Ling, who was actually seriously short of people in his hands, especially those who lacked some ability, waved his hand, smiled and said: "Get up, since you want to go with me, then I will accept you, and the salary is the same as my other family members." In the future, as long as you three are obedient and faithful to me, I will never treat you badly. ”

"Lord Xie, Lord Xie." The three brothers were overjoyed, and hurriedly kowtowed together to thank them, and couldn't help but be overjoyed. But what Lu Daxian didn't expect was that the three tigers of Guangzhou who he occasionally found out in his conscience that he had taken in turned out to be his three right-hand men on the road of anti-Qing Dynasty, helping him to do countless immoral things that hurt nature and reason, and became the glorious three members of the Manchu court's heavy reward list.
