Chapter 130: Halfway Out
Song Jiang and Hua Rong chatted a few more words, then went down the mountain to move the old father, and before leaving, they solemnly bowed to the Nine Heavens Xuannu Niangniang.
The two of them went down the mountain, and Zheng Tianshou had already killed the local soldiers under the mountain.
The group returned to Songjiazhuang, and the local soldiers of Yuncheng County shouted and chased after them, which had already awakened the people of Songjiazhuang, and some of the bold ones came to Song's house to see if Song's family was caught.
The Song family was originally a big family in the village, and the idlers did not dare to come to the door in the village, but now the Song family is a tiger in Pingyang, and the people in the village have come to see the excitement.
However, when Hua Rong and Zheng Tianshou brought Liangshan soldiers and horses to find them, the people in the village fled in fright.
When Song Jiang, Hua Rong and others returned to the village, they saw that the lights were bright, and Song Qingzheng commanded his subordinates to clean up.
Zhuangzhong was in such a mess, and Song Jiang also knew that Taigong would definitely wake up, so he couldn't help but ask with a weak heart: "What about my father?" ”
Song Qing pointed to the front lobby and said, "Father is sitting inside, when I went to ask my father to clean up, my father just nodded and didn't speak." I still can't think about it, so my brother went to persuade my father. ”
Song Jiang nodded and said: "Then I'll go and persuade my father, you let people speed up the cleaning up, and we will go to Liangshan overnight, so as not to arrest any more officers and soldiers." ”
Song Qing heard this, and hurriedly went to urge the subordinates in person.
When Song Jiang arrived in the lobby, he saw Mrs. Song sitting in the lobby and looking around, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "The child is not filial and does arrogant things, which makes his father frightened." ”
Mrs. Song said fairly: "Get up, after you committed a crime in Jiangzhou, I knew that you would definitely come to pick us up and go to Liangshan with you." Yuncheng County sent native soldiers again, and as long as the court documents arrived, they would arrest our whole family and ask for the crime. Although I am old, I don't want to sit still, so I can only fall into the grass with you. Fortunately, Liangshan soldiers are strong and strong, sooner or later there will be a court to recruit An, Chao Gai and you have always had a friendship, when you can pick up Chao Gai Zhaoan, because of the blessing of misfortune is not known. It's just that I suddenly want to leave this old house, and I am inevitably a little reluctant. ”
Song Jiang is also full of confidence now, and said with a smile: "Father rest assured, when he is a child, he will definitely rebuild the old mansion for generations to inherit." ”
Song Taigong shook his head and said: "When you can be a county magistrate, you can also be regarded as a glorious ancestor." ”
Song Jiang comforted Mrs. Song in the hall, and when the house was cleaned up, he got a soft sedan chair to carry the old lady, and the group came to Liangshan.
>
Looking at the proximity to the golden beach, Song Jiang is also excited, with the story of the Book of Heaven, I believe that in the near future, the entire Liangshan will become his palm, and the eight hundred miles of water will also become his own back garden.
"Open Watergate"
When the gatekeepers of the water village saw their boat approaching, they shouted and opened the water gate together.
As soon as the water gate opened, Hua Rong said: "Brother, King Chao led all the leaders of the cottage to greet him at the golden beach. ”
Song Jiang's eyes were not as good as Hua Rong, and when the boat passed through the water gate and entered the water village, he saw Chao Gai and others greet him on the golden beach, and he couldn't help frowning.
If he went down to Jiangzhou, it would be reasonable for Chao Gai to put on such a position. But now the leaders of the mountains don't want to see him, that is, Chao Gai thinks about making friends with him, and when he comes to greet the old lady Song, he should only bring a few henchmen and leaders, and he should not summon all the leaders to greet him so solemnly.
Song Jiang frowned and thought for a while, the only reason worthy of such a welcome was that he had obtained the Book of Heaven for them to know. No matter what others think, Song Jiang has always felt that he has obtained the Book of Heaven since he had that thought.
But Song Jiang thought about it and felt that it was wrong, he only told Hua Rong about the book of heaven.
In order to make this matter more credible, Song Jiang naturally would not say that he had obtained the Book of Heaven when he saw people, but would inadvertently be known by others, and it would be easier for others to believe at that time.
Could it be that there is some great hero to vote, so Chao Gai led everyone to greet here?
As soon as the boat landed, Song Jiang hurriedly jumped onto the beach, came to everyone, and said with his fists clenched: "I don't know who the leaders are here?" ”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at Chao Yong.
Chao Yong smiled: "I summoned all the leaders to come and made a special trip to welcome the three books?" ”
When Song Jiang heard this, his face couldn't help but change drastically, and he stammered: "Brother Yong'er, wait...... What book are you waiting for? ”
Chao Yong looked at Song Jiang's reaction, confirmed his guess in his heart, and said with a smile: "Third Uncle Song went to the Xuannu Temple?" ”
When Song Jiang heard the Xuannu Temple, he couldn't help but feel bad.
But although Hua Rong was the only one who chased Zhao Neng up the mountain last night, the soldiers and horses under his command stayed at the intersection of the mountain to besiege and kill the native soldiers of Yuncheng County. There are many people, but he can't hide the matter of going to the Xuannu Temple, so he can only stubbornly say: "I was chased by the local soldiers of Yuncheng County before, and I didn't choose the way to go, and I did go to the Xuannu Temple. ”
Chao Yong nodded and said, "Last night, the Nine Heavens Xuan Maiden gave me a dream and said that she would ask Third Uncle Song to bring me three books to help me fight on the battlefield." I think Uncle Song should get those three books. ”
Song Jiang now put all the hope of a comeback on the three books, and when he heard that Chao Yong was going to take away his three books, he immediately retorted: "The three books of heaven were given to me by the Nine Heavens Xuannu Niangniang, how did it become for me to bring to you?" ”
Chao Yong didn't expect Song Jiang to really make three volumes of Heavenly Books, but he didn't know if he had prepared it himself, or if he really got it in the Xuannu Temple.
The Xuannv Temple in Huandao Village is flourishing in Yuncheng County, and Chao Yong also knows the existence of the Xuannv Temple, but he has always felt that Song Jiang is pretending to be a ghost, and the three books of heaven do not exist at all, so he has not been to the Xuannv Temple.
However, after Song Jiang went down the mountain, Chao Yong learned from Shi Qian that Yuncheng County had already sent native soldiers to ambush in Songjiazhuang, and Song Jiang was afraid that there would be more luck and less luck if he went.
Song Jiang went down the mountain with Chao Yong's token, and Chao Yong was also afraid that after Song Jiang's accident, he would be blamed by Chao Gai. In addition, Song Jiang was rescued by the people of Liangshan from thousands of miles, and if the native soldiers of Yuncheng County were easily captured, it would inevitably damage the prestige of Liangshan.
And because Chao Yong learned that there was an ambush in Songjiazhuang, Song Jiang had been down the mountain for a long time, and Chao Yong was also afraid that when Liangshan people went to rescue, Song Jiang had been captured by the Yuncheng native soldiers. Therefore, Hua Rong and Zheng Tianshou were specially asked to lead the troops down the mountain to save Song Jiang, and the two of them had a great friendship with Song Jiang, and they must have worked hard when they went; If they are late and Song Jiang has already been arrested, then he can also avoid suspicion, lest others say that he deliberately sent someone to delay time and harm Song Jiang.
In Chao Yong's view, Song Jiang is already a tiger without claws, so he naturally doesn't want to bear a reputation for harming others.
After Hua Rong went down the mountain, Chao Yong remembered that Song Jiang obtained the Book of Heaven in the Water Margin.
Now that Song Jiang's reputation is ruined, he is a person who is unwilling to be ordinary, maybe he will forge some heavenly book.
After Chao Yong pretended to be Xingchen and went down to earth, he found that there were many soldiers in Liangshan who fanatically believed in him. If Song Jiang really came up with the Book of Heaven, maybe he would make waves in Liangshan again.
After thinking about it, Chao Yong summoned all the leaders and said that last night the Nine Heavens Xuannu Niangniang entrusted him with a dream, sent three books to help him fight on the battlefield, and asked everyone to go down the mountain to greet him.
If Song Jiang didn't bring back the "Book of Heaven", Chao Yongda could say that Song Jiang was disrespectful to the Nine Heavens Xuannu Niangniang, so the Nine Heavens Xuannu Niangniang didn't give him the book. He can go down the mountain to get it himself, and then he can find three books to fill up the dream, anyway, no one knows what the "Book from Heaven" looks like.
When Li Kui heard that Song Jiang actually dared to say that the Book of Heaven was for him, he couldn't help but rush out and said, "You are so shameless, the Nine Heavens Xuannu will give you the Book of Heaven to this shit-eating guy?" You don't want Brother Lai Yong'er's book from heaven, otherwise Li Kuibanaxe will not recognize you. ”
Hua Rong also just remembered that Chao Yong, who was rumored on Liangshan, was descended by the stars, and the Nine Heavens Xuannu would give him a dream. First, he didn't believe in this matter, and he didn't pay much attention to it, but secondly, he was worried about Song Jiang's life and death at that time, and after seeing him alive, he was inevitably a little excited, so he forgot the legend of the Nine Heavens Xuannu and Chao Yong.
Song Jiang had just gone up the mountain, and he didn't know that Chao Yong had already pretended to be the Nine Heavens Xuannu Niangniang.
Seeing Li Kui's vicious appearance, Song Jiang couldn't help but take two steps back in fright, but he was unwilling to let go of the "Book of Heaven" that could make him turn over, thought about it, and said: "Brother Yong'er, you said that the Book of Heaven was given to you by the Nine Heavens Xuannu Niangniang, so what did you say that the Book of Heaven was written on it?" ”
When Wu Song heard this, he couldn't help but say: "Brother Yong'er hasn't seen the Book of Heaven yet, how can he know what is written on it?" ”
"What Brother Wu Song said is that if you don't take out the book from heaven again, you will eat me with an axe first."
Hua Rong saw Li Kui raise the board axe, and was about to slash at Song Jiang, so he hurriedly took two steps forward and protected Song Jiang.
Chao Yong didn't expect Hua Rong to be so loyal to Song Jiang, and he didn't want Li Kui and Hua Rong to be together, so he hurriedly grabbed Li Kui and said, "Third Uncle Song, if I say it right, the book will be given to me?" Right? ”
Song Jiang couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, but looking at the appearance of Li Kui and the others, he also knew that he couldn't be good today, and only he had read the Book of Heaven, even Hua Rong didn't know, and Chao Yong didn't know the possibility of knowing.
It's hateful that this Chao Yong actually took the first step to pretend to make trouble in the name of the Nine Heavens Xuannu Niangniang, it seems that the plot is not small, since ancient times, it is not to rebel. Although he also wanted to forge the Book of Heaven, it was to seize the position of the lord of Liangshan, and then he would see the opportunity to act.
Chao Yong is so aggressive, he might as well take him into an army and expose his pretense of the Nine Heavens Xuannu Niangniang, which can also hit the prestige of Chao's father and son in Liangshan. As a person who has really obtained the Book of Heaven, it will be easier for him to convince people's hearts when the time comes.
Thinking of this, Song Jiang looked at Chao Yong and said, "If you are wrong, it means that the Nine Heavens Xuan Maiden has never given you a dream." Brother Yong, have you figured out whether you want to bet on this. ”
Some of the people in Liangshan didn't believe in ghosts and gods, and they originally thought that Chao Yong and Song Jiang had colluded to fake the Book of Heaven, but at this time, seeing that the two did not give in to each other, it seemed that it was not the case.
Chao Yong saw that everyone was looking at him, and he also knew that the matter had come to this point, and he couldn't retreat anymore, so he smiled at the moment: "Naturally." ”
