Chapter 128: Song Jiang is killed
Song Jiang took the Chao Yong token, and sure enough, he passed all the way unimpeded.
Out of the water, Song Jiang also took the road to Songjiazhuang, that night to Songjiazhuang outside, Song Jiang hid in the forest for a while, watching the house closed, every household turned off the lights, then quietly entered the village, to the back door of the house knocked on the door.
"Bang Bang"
Although Song Jiang didn't dare to exert too much force, the sound of knocking on the door was still very abrupt in the silent night.
"Wangwang"
Because the current emperor Zhao Ji is a dog, he ordered the slaughter of dogs to be banned throughout the country, but there are many dogs raised in the village and wild dogs outside the village.
As soon as Song Jiang knocked on the door, he attracted a burst of barking from the nearby watchdogs, and then the dogs in the village echoed each other, and for a while, the village was full of dogs barking.
Song Jiang heard the footsteps of villagers nearby, and knew that he was out to check, so he immediately became anxious, retreated back, walked a few steps, jumped up and climbed the wall, and jumped into his yard.
"Who"
Song Qing hadn't fallen asleep yet, when he heard a knock on the door, and was just about to come out to open the door, he saw a person jumping in from the wall, hurriedly picked up a wooden stick in the courtyard, and looked at it vigilantly.
Song Jiang saw that it was Song Qing, and hurriedly whispered: "It's me, brother, don't be loud." ”
Song Qing heard that it was his brother's voice, and hurriedly came up and said, "Why did my brother come back?" ”
Song Jiang hurriedly said: "This is not the place to talk, let's go into the house and talk." ”
Song Qing hurriedly said: "Your matter in Jiangzhou has been spread here, and this county has sent a Zhao Dutou to live in my house every day, just waiting for you to come from the net." If the court documents arrive, and you don't come, you will arrest our father and son and put them in prison. There are still dozens of soldiers living in the front yard. Without further ado, you should hurry up and ask the leader of Liangshan to come and save your father and brother. ”
Song Jiang was about to speak, but he heard a sound of footsteps in the front yard, and at the same time asked, "Who was knocking on the door just now?" ”
Song Qing hurriedly took two steps, opened the door, and said, "Brother, go quickly, it's a native soldier in the county." ”
When Song Jiang heard this, he didn't care about saying more, so he pulled out his legs and ran out.
At this time, the native soldiers in the front yard had also walked to the backyard, and when they saw a black shadow running out, they immediately shouted: "It's not good, Song Jiang is here, everyone chase after him, don't let him go." ”
When many local soldiers in the front yard heard Song Jiang appear, they immediately came to chase after them.
When Song Jiang heard a lot of people chasing after him, he immediately panicked and ran into the darkness.
After running for a while, I heard the sound of chasing a little farther away.
Song Jiang dared to slow down, and when he looked up, he couldn't help but secretly complain.
Running with his head covered for a while, he actually came to Huandao Village.
This village is surrounded by high mountains and mountains, and the mountain stream flows down a stream, but there is only one road in the middle, leading to the Xuannu Temple in the middle of the mountain.
Xuannu, also known as Jiuxiao Niangniang and Jiuxiao Xuannu in the countryside, is one of the Taoist immortals.
Taoism said that the emperor and Chi You fought in Zhuolu, the emperor could not win, sighed in the Taishan Ah, felt in the queen mother, and ordered the nine young Xuannu to descend, and awarded the emperor to Dun armor, soldiers, symbols, maps, strategies, seals, swords and other things, and for the production of Xie Niu drum eighty sides, so the big break Chi You and the decision to die.
Therefore, it was enshrined as a female fairy by Taoism, and during the Han and Wei dynasties, Xuannu had a great influence among the people. Legend has it that Xuannu and ** are the old-timers of the room in the arts, Peng Zu and Lao Dan are their white spoon students, and the ascension of the Yellow Emperor also depends on their white spoon spells, and among the Xuansu, the Xuannu is in the first place.
The people worship her, one wants to pray for a long life like Peng Zu, and the other also has the idea of asking for a child, because Xuannu is proficient in the art of the room.
Huandao Village is next to Songjiazhuang, and Song Jiang has been here many times, so he naturally knows that this road is a dead end, and there is no other way down the mountain.
"Don't go Song Jiang, there will be a heavy reward for catching it."
When Song Jiang was about to turn around and escape, he found that the pursuers were approaching, so he had to continue to move forward.
When I climbed halfway up the mountain, I ran through a forest and saw an ancient temple.
Song Jiang saw that there was no other place to hide, so he had to push open the temple door and come in, close the door from the inside, and hide.
When Song Jiang was checking where to hide in the temple, he only heard the outside say: "Didn't you hide in this temple." ”
Then there was a sound of footsteps from far and near.
Song Jiang suddenly panicked, and hurriedly looked left and right, but there was no place to hide, and the Xuannu Niangniang enshrined in the middle was not very tall, and she couldn't hide in the back.
There is only a shrine in front of the hall, on which some tributes are placed.
Song Jiang didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly ran over, lifted the curtain on the case, and got inside, but he was just able to avoid him. Hearing that the outside had come to the door, he hurriedly held his breath, and did not dare to come out, only secretly praying that those local soldiers would not dare to come to reveal the case.
"Squeak"
There was a muffled sound, and several native soldiers pushed the door in.
The temple door was opened, and the bright moonlight suddenly shone in.
Song Jiang hid behind the curtain, and when he saw the bright moonlight, he couldn't help but soften on the ground in fright.
Zhao Neng, the new head of Yuncheng County, saw the temple at a glance, turned his head and said: "This guy is not in the temple, there is no other way, but where has he gone?" ”
A native soldier said, "Isn't it hiding in the forest in front of you?" ”
Zhao Neng listened and hurriedly said: "It's bad, Zhao has to bring a few people in and hold the intersection below." I'll take it in and look for it in the woods, this will be a kung fu, he shouldn't be able to run, let's go quickly. ”
As he spoke, he led a group of native soldiers to hurry back.
Song Jiang was relieved to see them leave, but he was worried again.
However, there is only one road down the mountain, and when you go up, it is difficult to climb, and you can't go down the mountain on either side. If they keep holding the intersection, it will be difficult for Song Jiang to go down the mountain.
Song Jiang didn't dare to go out, so he could only hide under the divine case, praying that Zhao Neng couldn't find him and retreat to Songjiazhuang, so that he could escape back to Liangshan.
Song Jiang thought for a while, and was afraid that Zhao Neng would come to the temple to look for him again when he couldn't find him in the forest, and at that time, he would find him with just a little search.
Song Jiang gritted his teeth, but decided to take advantage of the time when they were looking in the forest, and quietly sneaked into the place they had searched in the forest, thinking that they would not search for the second time, if they really searched, there would be more places to dodge in the forest, it would be better to sit here and wait for death.
Thinking of this, Song Jiang was about to drill out, but when he pressed his hand on the back, he heard a "squeak".
Song Jiang lifted the curtain and looked through the moonlight, only to see a small lattice appear on the originally tight and seamless wall, but inside was a thing wrapped in a handkerchief.
Song Jiang didn't have time to take a closer look, picked it up and put it in his arms, and ran out.
Out of the temple gate, Song Jiang saw that the native soldiers of Yuncheng County had lit a lot of torches and were gradually searching for the depths of the forest.
Song Jiang didn't dare to hide in the forest with a swagger, so he could only shrink into the dark and slowly lean towards the forest, so he didn't alarm the earth soldiers and hid in the forest smoothly.
Song Jiang was afraid that the native soldiers would bump into it when they returned, so he found a book with lush foliage, quietly climbed up, and hid on it.
This forest is not very big, and it didn't take long for Zhao Neng to take the native soldiers to search around, but he didn't find Song Jiang entering the shadow, thinking about it, and said to a native soldier: "You go down to take a look, look at the entry who chased down and see that there is an entry escaped?" ”
Song Jiang hid in the tree, watching Zhao Neng walk under his feet, and couldn't help but be so frightened that he didn't dare to come out.
Fortunately, they had already searched this side just now, so they didn't look up at the trees again, otherwise they would definitely find Song Jiang.
Zhao Neng led in and out of the forest, glanced at the Xuannu Temple, and suddenly said, "Isn't that guy hiding under the god case in the temple?" I didn't see it just now. ”
And when he spoke, he led it in and gathered around him in front of the temple.
Song Jiang saw on the tree that they really went to search the temple again, and couldn't help but secretly rejoice.
Zhao Neng waited to enter the temple, and saw that he could hide under the god case, and Zhao Neng didn't dare to open the curtain, for fear that when Song Jiangzhen hid inside, a fatal blow would kill him.
"Go and lift the veil and see."
The native soldier who was hit by Zhao Neng walked cautiously.
Zhao Neng waited for him to stare at the divine case as if he was facing a great enemy, in case Song Jiang suddenly came out.
The soldier crept to the side of the case, grabbed the curtain, and tore it off with a bang.
"Ding"
The incense burner on the desk was pulled to the ground, and the incense ash inside suddenly fluttered.
"Be careful"
Zhao Neng hurriedly covered his eyes, and at the same time took a knife and gun to slash under the incense case, in case Song Jiang took the opportunity to rush out and get hurt.
Naturally, all the people were cut into the air, and when the incense ashes fell, when the people entered the incense case, they were empty.
Zhao Neng glanced at it disappointingly, and when he was about to leave, a native soldier shouted: "There was a hidden here before, and there is a handprint in this grid, which seems to be newly left." ”
When Zhao Neng walked over to look, the small lattice was not known how many years, and under the incense case, although there was a mechanism sealed before, but the incense ash continued to fall every day, and there was still some dust inside.
A native soldier was sharp-eyed, pointed to the place where the handkerchief was placed before, and said: "There is no dust on the side, I don't know what is there, it is estimated that it was also taken away by Song Jiang's house." ”
Zhao Neng listened, and couldn't help but be greedy, hiding something in such a secret small grid must be a treasure, but I didn't expect this experience, and there was an unexpected joy.
One of the native soldiers said, "That guy must have escaped from here and burrowed into the forest while we were searching for it." ”
Zhao Neng waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go to the forest to find him." ”
Song Jiang saw Zhao Neng waiting in the tree and playing torches, swarming to the edge of the forest, and couldn't help but be so frightened that he almost fell under the tree.
A few smugglers had gone into the woods, carrying torches, and searched up and down.
Song Jiang saw that a native soldier was about to search under the tree where he was hiding, and couldn't help but get anxious, as long as this native soldier took a torch, he would definitely find himself.
When I was thinking about jumping off the tree, I was going to take down this native soldier and grab a knife.
I only heard Zhao Neng shouting outside: "Everyone come out first." ”
The native soldiers under the tree who were about to arrive turned back, and Song Jiang almost jumped down, seeing that there was a turning point, he hurriedly grabbed the branch to stabilize his body.
"Dutou, why don't you look for it?"
Zhao Neng glanced at the dark woods, shook his head and said, "I can't see my fingers in this forest, when we go to look for him again, I'm afraid he will take the opportunity to flash elsewhere." This village is a way out from the mountain, and we are not afraid that he will escape, so we only go to the bottom of the mountain to guard, and when it is dawn, we will carefully search the forest. I am not afraid that he will put on his wings and fly away. ”
