Chapter 50: Pretending to be a Mandate of Heaven
Chao Yong and Xu Ning chased all the way, and finally caught up with Xu Ning's family escorted by Ruan Xiaoqi when they arrived at the Jeju border.
When Rì Chao Yong earned the two out of the city, Wen Yan explained, lying that Xu Ning had been invited to Liangshan, and the two could be reunited as a family if they went.
After that, he carefully told Ruan Xiaoqi to escort Xu Ning's family back to Liangshan.
Shi Qian returned to Tokyo to steal Yan Lingjia again to leave a book, while Chao Yong waited for Xu Ning to come to the door at the Chen Hotel.
Although Mrs. Xu Ning was frightened of falling into the hands of thieves, she gradually relaxed when she saw Ruan Xiaoqi taking care of her like a brother and sister-in-law.
The family was reunited, and the husband and wife who cared about each other were relieved to see that each other was safe and sound.
Xu Ning is also very trustworthy, he didn't feel too frightened when he saw his wife and children, and he didn't fight much along the way.
After a few rì, the group arrived at the dry land Hulu Zhugui Hotel, which had its own cottage boat to pick up.
Chao Gai also got the news and took the leaders down to the golden beach to greet Xu Ning.
Chao Yong found that there was one more person among the leaders, who was more than seven feet tall, with dark skin, and spots on his face, unlike the natural pockmarks, it should be the money leopard Tang Long, and the spots on his face should have been produced by striking iron by the high-temperature stove for a long time.
Chao Yong vaguely remembered that Tang Long in the Water Margin was met by Li Kui when he invited Gongsun Sheng to go to Gaotang Prefecture, so he asked Zhu Gui to send people to search for him north of Gaotang Prefecture.
Fortunately, Tang Long is also quite famous for building weapons, and it didn't take much trouble to find him.
Tang Long's background is also quite good, his father relied on building and developing weapons to know the village, and he also learned a family handicraft, but because of gambling, he could not be constrained by the army, so he was unwilling to follow his father's old path. Wandering on the rivers and lakes, he can only make a living by striking iron.
Tang Long is also a person who is not willing to be plain, and when he heard that the little overlord of Liangshan specially asked him to go up the mountain, he threw the hammer without saying a word, and went up to Liangshan.
/\/\ Later up the mountain, Chao Gai should be heavily punished. ”
Shi Qian shook his head helplessly, saying that he couldn't help it, and when he sneaked into Xu Ning's mansion for the second time and stole Yan Lingjia, he quickly whipped back to the cottage and told Chao Gai truthfully.
As soon as Chao Gai heard that they had done something to deceive him in Tokyo, he was immediately furious, and he immediately had to blame Shi Qian, and later thought that Shi Qian was also instructed by Chao Yong, so he was exempted from Shi Qian's punishment and only waited for Chao Yong to come back.
When Chao Yong heard this, he couldn't help but feel bitter, he knew that Chao Gai was falling, and his strategy would inevitably be unpleasant, and it seemed that he couldn't escape this fight.
Xu Ning also didn't know if Chao's father and son were playing double reeds, if Chao Gai really didn't know, then Chao Yong could call the cottage people to find Tang Long, obviously he also had a very high status in the cottage, although he was also a little annoyed that he hurt himself to fall into the grass, but he just went up the mountain but he couldn't offend him, and hurriedly said: "Although the little overlord has something inappropriate, he has already admitted his mistake to me on the road, and the king of heaven will spare him." ”
Lin Chong and Xu Ning are also old acquaintances, and they have always been close to Chao Yong, and they also said at the moment: "Exactly, not to mention that Brother Yong is also recruiting talents for the cottage, for the sake of his original intentions, let's spare him this time." ”
Chao Gai said: "None of you ask for mercy, if the people on the mountain are as deceived as him, my Liangshan's reputation for Tianxing Dao will not be defeated." Okay, let's welcome General Xu up the mountain first. ”
At the moment when everyone was on the cottage, Chao Gai had already set up a banquet in the Juyi Hall for Xu Ning to pick up the wind.
Everyone sat down, Chao Yong was about to hide and sit down at the back point, but Chao Gai saw it and shouted: "Rebel, where to hide, eat your thirty military sticks first and then come to eat." ”
/\/\
Seeing that it was true, Xu Ning hurriedly got up and said: "The king of heaven is angry, the young master of the village is just a little younger, and look at my face, spare him this time." ”
Chao Gai shook his head and said, "General Xu spoke, Chao Gai shouldn't have refused." However, there are mountain rules, and no one can cross them. The law enforcement team will not drag him down yet. ”
Chao Yong waved his hand to stop the two law enforcement officers who came in outside the door, and said, "I'll go and get the punishment myself." ”
Lin Chong saw that Chao Gai seemed to be determined to punish Chao Yong, and he was also in a hurry, so he hurriedly looked at Wu Yong, the military advisor.
The law enforcement team enforces the law very strictly, and the 30 military sticks go down, and the lightest is the skin and flesh, and if it is not good, it will hurt the muscles and bones, and even the men who are beaten with iron will have to be raised for a month.
Wu Yong watched Lin Chong ask for help, shook the feather fan, and said with a smile: "The Heavenly King is angry, I still have a question, and it is not too late to fight when I ask him." ”
When Chao Gai heard this, he had no choice but to say: "Rebel, you come back first." ”
Wu Yong saw Chao Yong come back and asked, "There are many heroes in the world, but why do you want to invite General Xu alone?" ”
When Chao Yong heard this, he said helplessly: "I robbed Dongping Mansion a few times ago, and the imperial court will send Hu Yanzhuo to beat me Liangshan, and the Hu Yan family's ironclad chain horse is powerful in the world, and only General Xu's hook and sickle spear technique can be broken, so Chao Yong has to make this decision." ”
Wu Yongqi said: "There is no news from the copycat spies, but how did you know that it was Hu Yanzhuo who led the troops?" ”
Chao Yong wanted to say that he heard it by chance in Tokyo, but before he went to Tokyo, he asked Zhu Gui to look for Tang Long, and he didn't know if it was really Hu Yanzhuo leading the troops.
It's just that I thought that the first time the imperial court in the Water Margin sent a large army to attack Liangshan, it was Huyanzhuo who led the troops, and only Huyanzhuo's ironclad chain of horses was difficult to break. And he happened to go to Tokyo to play, and by the way, Xu Ning was earned up the mountain, and it was really saved that when Hu Yanzhuo came to attack, Liangshan lost his troops and lost his generals, so he had to spend time to invite Xu Ning.
The Jin country has risen rapidly, and it will not take a few years
Of course, Chao Yong couldn't say that he knew that Hu Yanzhuo would come to fight Liangshan sooner or later, and he just turned Xu Ning by the way.
Seeing Chao Gai looking at him with fierce eyes, he could only bite the bullet and say: "After the last time the meteor fell and was injured, I often had some weird dreams. This time it was told to me by the Nine Heavens Xuannu in the dream. ”
In February this year, the meteor fell on Chao Gai Village, and Chao Yong's house was lit alone, and Chao Yong woke up after a coma.
Chao Gai also knew that his son had opened his mind since then, but this dream was the first time he had heard of it, and he was stunned: "The second article of the military regulations, rumors and sophistry, fabricating ghosts and gods, pretending to be dreams, wanton heresy, and bewitching sergeants, this is called the yín army, and the offender will be beheaded." DID YOU KNOW? ”
Everyone in the cottage must first memorize seventeen military rules when they join the army, and Chao Yong is naturally familiar with it, so he said stubbornly: "I naturally know, but this matter is not nonsense." The meteor fell into my house, and my father also knew about it, so wasn't the meteor still collected by my father? ”
When Tang Long heard this, he exclaimed, "How big is a meteorite?" It's a good material for making weapons. ”
Chao Gai smiled: "But the size of an egg, he can't do anything, if it's big, I'm afraid he won't have his life." ”
When Tang Long heard that it was no more than the size of an egg, he couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment, even if he could really make a weapon, he couldn't do anything of this size.
Chao Gai paused, but said again: "The meteor is real, but others don't know about this Nine Heavens Xuannu Niangniang. How to know if what you say is true or false. ”
Chao Yong thought about it, after all, he returned to the Water Margin world, and most of the plots should be the same as the Water Margin, and taking some risks may be able to achieve miraculous results.
He said: "It's indeed what I dreamed of, but I can't remember the time clearly." Either this time or next time, if Hu Yanzhuo didn't come to beat me Liangshan, he would be willing to be punished at that time. ”
Gongsun Sheng looked at Chao Yong with suspicion, he relied on these gods and ghosts to fool many corrupt officials, in fact, he himself didn't believe it, otherwise how could he dare to pretend to be a ghost.
Most of the time, I have already figured it out, and then pretended to be able to pinch it to fool people. Could it be that Chao Yong had already gotten the news and deliberately coaxed everyone?
Gongsun Sheng was unmoved, looked at Xu Ning and said, "I have been robbing Dongping Mansion for more than a month, and the imperial court will inevitably assign it." General Xu, you are serving in Tokyo, have you ever heard who the imperial court will send to lead the troops? ”
Xu Ning shook his head and said: "Everything in Liangshan was caused by the robbery of Cai Jing's birthday, and Cai Jing didn't dare to alarm the saint, so these things were not discussed in the court, and I am afraid that a few people were privately gaining power." Catching up with the Mid-Autumn Festival, the mobilization of soldiers and horses may be late, so there is no news of Bianjing. ”
When everyone heard Xu Ning say this, they all believed Chao Yong's seven points. After all, who the imperial court sends to attack Liangshan can only be influenced by a few powerful ministers of the imperial court.
Later, when Huyan Zhuozhen led the troops to attack, the cottage slowly spread that Chao Yong was a star descending to earth.
Chao Gai was also convinced of this statement, and many things after that made Chao Yong decide by himself and never asked.
Guy Chao Gai already believed in the ghosts and gods, when Xixi Village built a bluestone pagoda, the people of Dongxi Village said that the pagoda drove the water ghosts of Xixi Village to Dongxi Village, Chao Gai believed it, and one person went to take it and put it in Dongxi Village, so he had the nickname of Tota Heavenly King.
In the Water Margin, after Song Jiang was rescued from Jiangzhou and went back to Songjiazhuang, he made a trip back to Songjiazhuang and produced the Nine Heavenly Xuannu and three volumes of Heavenly Books. I'm afraid that Gongsun Sheng saw that Song Jiang had bad intentions, and Chao Gai was convinced that Liangshan might have to have a lot of trouble from now on, so he used the excuse to go down the mountain and return to his hometown to live in seclusion.
