Chapter 9: Encountering Robbers on the Road
Song Jiang took Zhang Heng's boat that year and was asked whether he ate hob meat (hacked to death with a knife) or wontons (tied up and thrown into the river by five flowers). If it weren't for Song Jiang and Ji Yu's reputation being too great, he would have been buried in the belly of the fish if he had been replaced by someone else.
Jinyan Biao Shi En and Jiang Men Shenhei eat black. Shi En is the son of the prison warden, and he eats all the black and white ways. Jiang Menshen is more powerful, his martial arts are strong, and he also got acquainted with Zhang Dujian and Zhang Tuanlian. Shi En couldn't fight, please Wu Song came out, first hit Jiang Menshen, and then broke into the Mandarin Duck Tower, killed Jiang Menshen, Zhang Tuanlian, and Zhang Dujian. Shi En, a leader of the underworld, Gu Murderer, can he be called a hero?
Let's talk about Wu Song. Killing Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing can also be said to be revenge for her husband, which is understandable. can eat a little benefit of grace, and without asking the reason, he drunk and beat Jiang Menshen, and the blood spattered Mandarin Duck Tower, is this the work of a hero? This kind of brave and ruthless man who is a tiger is also worthy of the word hero?
Isn't there a good man on Liangshan? There are too! Most of the real heroes were forced to go to Liangshan. Lu Junyi, who ranked second in Liangshan, and Zhu Tong, who ranked twelfth, were both framed by Liangshan and joined the gang; Yan Qing, who ranked thirty-sixth, joined the gang with Lu Junyi; Lin Chong, who ranked sixth, was framed by Gao Yu and joined the gang; Lu Zhishen, who ranked thirteenth, joined the gang with grievances; The fifth Guan Sheng, the seventh Qin Ming, the eighth Hu Yanzhuo, and the eighteenth Xu Ning were all captured and joined; Including Shi Jin, Hua Rong, Yang Zhi, etc., these can be regarded as heroes, at least they have never done anything against their conscience. But some of them were originally born in bandits, from the underworld, plus Shi Qian, Bai Sheng and other rooster and dog thieves, which is really flattering, and some even deserve to die ten times and hundreds of times.
Without further ado, let's get to the point. The system informed Liu Yuan that Hu Cheng would arrive at a certain place in Jiujiang County, Yangzhou in three days, and he would cross Danyang County in the middle, which was hundreds of miles away from here.
Liu Yuan scolded in his heart: "The time is so short, the distance is still so far, the stupid boy is playing!" ”
There is no way, Liu Yuan knows that the stupid boy himself must be a fool. Isn't it just a few hundred miles away? Done! Hu Sanniang! Waiting for me, Liu Yuan, who is thirsty for talent, is here!
I bought a better horse with ten taels of silver, and bought some dry food, and Liu Yuan had more than one or two taels of silver left, which was enough to save a month or two to eat. At this time, Liu Yuan was glad that Cai Wenji forced him 30 taels of silver, otherwise he would have to turn around and ask Cai Wenji again, so where would he put his face?
Before Liu Yuan crossed, he had gone to the horse farm to ride horses, and he rode better foreign breeds. So although he is not very good at riding, he can still ride horses.
It took more than a day for Liu Yuan to arrive at the designated place, an inn next to the official road. As for how to persuade Hu Cheng, Liu Yuan couldn't formulate a specific strategy, so he could only improvise. After all, she has neither identity nor money, and it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice. At this time, Liu Yuan had only one word in his heart: "flicker"!
The environment in which I live is something that Hu Cheng could never have dreamed of! I will win the lottery every day, and there will be great gifts every day. The sketches "selling abduction", "selling cars" and even "selling cats" are all well-known. Under the influence of this general environment, how can Liu Yuan's flickering skills not be improved? Dealing with Hu Cheng? Break a butterfly on the wheel!
There is still more than a day to go, and Liu Yuan doesn't want to be idle. He decided to walk around and scout the terrain. Staying at the inn and resting for a while, Liu Yuanxin walked forward. After an hour, the road became narrower, the weeds became thicker, and the mountains in the distance became more and more steep.
Liu Yuan restrained the horse. After learning the art of war, he knew that this was an easy place to set up an ambush. While no one is going to lay an ambush on you, it's better to be cautious. Liu Yuan decided to go back the same way.
At this moment, a group of menacing men and horses suddenly appeared from the weeds in front of them, with all kinds of equipment, patchwork together. The weapons were disorganized, there were no bows and arrows. The first one, fair-skinned, rode a brown horse. was supposed to be a beautiful son, but he was holding a big knife with a fierce face. Such a nondescript image subverted Liu Yuan's cognition.
A relative next to him shouted at Liu Yuan: "Leave the horse and the package, honor our Qingfeng Mountain, and people can get out." ”
Meet the robbers! Liu Yuan observed the opponent's lineup, thought of a way to get out, and at the same time let the system detect the full ability of the leading general.
"Zheng Tianshou, 69 in force, 59 in command, 66 in strategy, 34 in politics, and 35 in charisma. Third-class general. ”
Damn, it turned out to be him! White-faced Langjun Zheng Tianshou, the master of the three villages of Qingfeng Mountain in the Water Margin, this must be one of the generals randomly entered by the system. Now that Zheng Tianshou has appeared, and he is from Qingfeng Mountain, then the brocade-haired tiger Yanshun and the bantam tiger Wang Ying, as the first and second masters of Qingfeng Mountain, are likely to also appear.
Although the three of them are all second- and third-rate characters in Liangshan, they are also quite tricky opponents for Liu Yuan now. What is Seifuyama? O den of robbers, there is no bottom line for adultery and plunder.
In terms of force, Liu Yuan knew that he was far behind, and although he had an absolute advantage in intelligence, he couldn't explain why Xiucai met soldiers. Don't even think about subduing them, if you don't handle it well this time, it will be difficult to escape.
Since it was clear that confrontation would not work, Liu Yuan decided to conduct an experiment on Zheng Tianshou first to test the effect of the Great Flicker Technique.
"I have known Brother Yanshun since I was a child, and I heard that he is now falling grass in Qingfeng Mountain, so I made a special trip to visit, and I dare to ask the eldest brother in front of me if he is the leader of Qingfeng Mountain?" Although he was not 100% sure that Yan Shun and Wang Ying were in Qingfeng Mountain, Liu Yuan's expression was calm and calm, and he couldn't see any flaws.
Zheng Tianshou looked at Liu Yuan in surprise. This guy has a good appearance and temperament, the sword on his waist is not ordinary at first glance, and the horse under his crotch is also good, he is a character. Zheng Tianshou assessed in his heart. At this time, he felt that Brother Yan Shun could know such a character, and he deserved to be his eldest brother.
"I'm the third leader of Qingfeng Mountain, since I'm a friend, then please tell Qingfeng Mountain." Zheng Tianshou invited. The people on the rivers and lakes, even if they are robbers, still value brotherly righteousness.
At the beginning, Song Jiang was kidnapped on Qingfeng Mountain and was supposed to be killed. When Yan Shun heard that he was Song Jiang, he hurriedly loosened his ties and bowed down. This is evident from this. Because of the famous characters in the rivers and lakes, if you kill them, it will cause public outrage. If you get acquainted, it will be of great benefit.
Since Zheng Tianshou is the three leaders, that's right, Yan Shun and Wang Ying are both on the mountain. After inquiring about the information he wanted, Liu Yuan decided to run away. It is impossible to really follow up the mountain, and when Yan Shun's lies are exposed, then life and death are out of his own hands.
Liu Yuan suddenly burst out in surprise: "Huh? Isn't that Brother Yan? As he spoke, he used his fingers to go. When everyone heard that the big leader had arrived, they all turned their heads and looked back. Liu Yuan turned his horse sharply and rode away.
"Good boy, dare to fool me, you don't want to come here in your life!" Zheng Tianshou shouted angrily. At this time, Liu Yuan's horse had already run more than ten meters. One of the little minions reacted quickly, threw out the weapon in his hand and smashed it at Liu Yuan, and the weapon landed two or three meters away from the horse's buttocks. Zheng Tianshou knew that he couldn't catch up, scolded twice, and led the team to hide.
Liu Yuan saw that Zheng Tianshou's troops were not well equipped and had no bows and arrows, so he seized an opportunity and fled immediately. If there were bows and arrows, Liu Yuan would never dare to do so. In that case, Liu Yuan would only have to take the risk and go up the mountain with Zheng Tianshou and find a way to fool the three of them. His life was out of his control.
Liu Yuan traveled more than ten miles, the road gradually widened, and it was not far from the inn. Seeing that no robbers were chasing, Liu Yuan slowed down. In retrospect, there was some fear. If it weren't for his high alertness, he would have fallen into the encirclement if he had gone a few dozen meters further. The reason why he was able to escape this time was entirely because the robbers did not succeed in surrounding him, and when they saw that he was leaving, they had to show up and use force to deter him. If the encirclement is successful, how will he be polite to him, and he will be killed with a knife.
Back at the inn, Liu Yuan stayed. Starting from the inn, in addition to Liu Yuan's coming, there were only two roads, one of which was the road Liu Yuan took when he was robbed by Zheng Tianshou and his gang.
On the third day, Liu Yuan explored another way, but found nothing. On the fourth day, Liu Yuan sat in the hall of the inn, eating while observing the surroundings, waiting for Hu Cheng to appear. There were only three or two people in the hall, and it was a little deserted.
Half an hour later, a group of men arrived at the inn. The first one rode a black horse, about twenty years old, of medium stature, with a calm temperament, and held a large sword with a cold light. There were dozens of people behind him, some pushing carts full of goods, some walking with weapons, all strong men.
Liu Yuan saw the big man at a glance. "Check the full power of the man at the head." Liu Yuan immediately commanded the system.
"Hu Cheng, 71 in force, 54 in commander, 59 in strategy, 56 in politics."
That's right, it's Hu Cheng, and it's finally here! My first military commander must be subdued. Liu Yuan was excited in his heart.
