The sound was dry, only to hear the sound of clanging for a while, and everyone drank the spills in the bowl together. Deng Long put down the wine bowl and said to Lu Zhishen: "Big brother, in the past, we only heard about your courage in defeating Yelu Yongshan in the Liao Kingdom, but we didn't see it with our own eyes. Today, you can open the eyes of the brothers, Qin Ming, that guy has the courage of ten thousand people, his eyes are empty, what do you say that you want to level our Erlong Mountain, Peach Blossom Mountain, and White Tiger Mountain without much effort, but I didn't expect to be beaten by you and run away, this is really happy. ”

Lu Zhishen nodded and said: "Brother, monk I am just a force of bravery, although I defeated that ass fire today, but the officers and soldiers must be overwhelming, and now we are not going to leave under this mountain, we are still careless." Or drink less bars. ”

Deng Long nodded and said, "Big brother is right, the current enemy is indeed something that should be vigilant. Come brothers, after the wine has been dried, everyone will hurry back, prepare more rolling logs and stones, and continue to meet the attack of the officers and soldiers tomorrow. ”

Lu Zhishen said: "Brother, it's not enough to just face the battle, these forces on Erlong Mountain can't withstand it for a few days just by relying on the mountains." ”

Golden-eyed Tiger Deng Long said: "Big brother, don't worry, I have already sent letters to the other two mountains asking for advice, and within two or three days, they will take action after receiving the letters." ”

Lu Zhishen nodded: "That's good, that's good!" It seems that it is good to have the Confederates. ”

The allies that Lu Zhishen said are the two forces of the Tiger Fighting General Li Zhong of Peach Blossom Mountain, the cottage of the little overlord Zhou Tong and the cottage of White Tiger Mountain led by the brothers Kong Ming and Kong Liang.

This is still after Lu Zhishen came to Erlong Mountain.

After Lu Zhishen joined in Erlong Mountain, he said to Deng Long: "Brother, I am under the ground jurisdiction of Qingzhou here, this Qingzhou is an important state capital of the Great Song Dynasty, and the government will never allow us to exist under their noses." ”

Deng Long said: "Big brother, I have also thought of this matter, but I haven't come up with a way to deal with it yet!" Big brother, you are well-informed, see if there is any good way. ”

Lu Zhishen said: "People have no long-term concerns, there must be near-term worries, and we are still a little bit better." ”

Deng Long said: "Big brother, you are the one who led the soldiers to beat the cane, what do you say." Deng Long listens to you for everything. ”

Lu Zhishen said: "Brother, aren't there still two cottages in this Qingzhou territory, Peach Blossom Mountain and White Tiger Mountain, we will form a three-mountain alliance with them, and we can support each other if we encounter anything." ”

Deng Long said: "Big brother, what you said is good, I'm afraid that the people from Peach Blossom Mountain and White Tiger Mountain won't agree." ”

Lu Zhishen said: "Why won't they agree, if any of our three mountains are wiped out by officers and soldiers, the other two can't escape, which is called a loss." Li Zhong, the tiger general in Peach Blossom Mountain, and Zhou Tong, the little overlord, are old acquaintances of mine, and the sprinkler family can write a letter and send someone to send it over. It's just that the two Confucian brothers in Baihu Mountain don't know each other, so it's a bit hard to say! ”

Deng Long said: "Big brother, don't worry about this, the little brother in Baihu Mountain will personally go on a trip, and the two brothers of the Duma Mars Kong Ming and the Maotou Star Kong Xiaoming have a powerful relationship, and I think they will agree to form an alliance in the future." ”

As a result, Li Zhong, the tiger general of Peach Blossom Mountain, Zhou Tong, the little overlord and Kong Ming and Kong Liang of Baihu Mountain, saw that these three mountains were the most powerful in Erlong Mountain, and now they took the initiative to form an alliance, so they all nodded and agreed, so the alliance formed by Erlong Mountain, Peach Blossom Mountain, and White Tiger Mountain sandwiched the Qingzhou Mansion on three sides.

Lu Zhishen heard Deng Long say that he had sent someone to send a letter asking for help: "Okay, then I can rest assured, sleep!" Go to bed! Gather your spirits and have a big battle tomorrow. ”

The next morning, after breakfast, just after the dawn, I heard the sound of "boom" at the foot of the mountain, and Qin Ming, the commander of the Qingzhou soldiers and horses, commanded his men and horses to start attacking the mountain.

Although the officers and soldiers are more than 1,000 men and horses, the number of people is bound to be heavy, but there is only one path leading to the mountain on the Erlong Mountain, and Deng Long has already built a strong fence with logs there, and the brothers of the cottage hide behind the fence to resist the attack of the officers and soldiers.

Although the officers and men had the advantage of being outnumbered, there was no way to put a large group of men and horses on this narrow and crooked mountain road, and they could organize a small contingent of twenty or thirty people to charge at a time.

The officers and men waved their flags and shouted cheers at the foot of the mountain, and released arrows to cover the small group of troops attacking on the back.

Lu Zhishen and Deng Long also came to the front of the mountain, and the two stood on the fence halfway up the mountain, commanding the brothers to block the attack of the officers and soldiers with rolling logs and stones.

Lu Zhishen stood there and shouted: "Brothers, smash me hard, smash these straight mothers to death." ”

Qin Ming, who was watching the battle at the foot of the mountain on horseback, saw Lu Zhishen standing there pointing fingers, so angry that he ran to the front of the mountain and scolded: "Bald donkey! Sooner or later, I'm going to cut off your big bald head and use it as a bubble. ”

Lu Zhishen picked up a stone the size of a grinding plate and said: "Ass fire, there is a kind of you who didn't run away with smoke on your butt yesterday!" He said, "Give you a big stone to carry home and press the pickle jar!" With both hands raised, the big stone smashed straight towards Qin Ming along the hillside, and Qin Ming was so frightened that he ran back into the formation with a horse's head.

Lu Zhishen laughed and said, "Haha! Don't run, kid. ”

At this moment, I didn't know that a cold arrow flew from there, and shot straight at Lu Zhishen's face with a whistling sound.

Lu Zhishen was engrossed in directing the battle there, and he didn't notice it at all, and Deng Long, who was standing next to him at this time, shouted: "Big brother, flash up." Then he jumped up and pounced, knocking Lu Zhishen to the ground, but the arrow was inserted into Deng Long's heart.

Lu Zhishen hurriedly hugged Deng Long in his arms and shouted: "Brother, Brother Deng Long!" ”

After shouting for a long time, Deng Long opened his eyes and looked at Lu Zhishen with a wry grin and said, "Big brother, the brothers on the mountain will hand it over to you." As he spoke, he closed his eyes.

Tears flowed from Lu Zhishen's eyes, and he screamed: "Brother, you made me feel distressed to death." Saying that, he put down Deng Long's corpse, lifted the Zen staff and was about to rush down the mountain, but was stopped by those little leaders and said: "King, King Deng has returned to the West, if you have another good one, what will you do with the brothers?" ”

At this time, Qin Ming saw that the archers had shot down Deng Long at the bottom of the mountain, and immediately came with the strength, waving the small flag in his hand and shouting loudly: "Rush, rush, hurry up the mountain, kill all those bandits, the first to rush up, reward five hundred taels of silver and promote to three levels." ”

When the officers and soldiers heard this, they were rewarded! Shouted: "Kill! Kill! They threw themselves down the trail and climbed up the hill.

Lu Zhishen picked up a big log the size of a bucket and said, "Go back to your grandma's house!" The big log fell down in response and knocked down the three officers and soldiers running in front with a pop.

The brothers of Erlongshan shared the same hatred for the enemy, and they threw arrows and arrows, stones and stones, and rolling logs, and in this way, they successively repelled five attacks by officers and soldiers.

When it was dark, Qin Ming saw that he was really unable to conquer it, and commanded the team to retreat.

The officers and soldiers had to leave behind more than 100 corpses and retreat to the bottom of the mountain, lit torches and bonfires, and continued to blockade Erlong Mountain.

Lu Zhishen returned to the Juyi Hall with Deng Long's corpse, put Deng Long's corpse on the tiger skin chair, set up a mourning hall there, and lit incense and candles.

Lu Zhishen waved his hand, and all the brothers walked out.

Lu Zhishen pulled over a chair and sat there facing Deng Long's corpse and muttered, "Brother Deng Long, you say!" Why did you leave like this, it's all the Sprinkle family that damn you, you shouldn't have blocked that arrow for me! You died for me. Brothers! Think about you being an orphan since you were a child, growing up and becoming a monk, and then you had to pull the flag to rebel in order to avenge your teacher, and you have enjoyed a day of happiness in this life. Brother, you shouldn't just leave. You're gone, I'm lonely again, and I don't even have a confidant to talk to, brother, I'm sorry for my family. Speaking of this, Lu Zhi couldn't cry deeply, and tears rolled down the corners of his eyes.

Who said that men have no tears, and men don't flick when they have tears.

Who said that heroes are ruthless, ruthless may not be true heroes, real men, only tears, that is the blood that flows from the heart.

Only true heroes have love, and that is the frank feeling that bursts out from the depths of the soul.

The next day, Lu Zhishen ordered four small leaders to lead 200 brothers to block the attack of officers and soldiers in the front mountain, and he led other brothers to put Deng Long's body in a large coffin made overnight, beat gongs and drums and carry it to a tree in front of Baozhu Temple for burial.

Looking at the tomb made of mountain stones, Lu Zhishen said: "Brother, you can lie here well!" Erlong Mountain is still your cottage, Baozhu Temple is still your Juyi Hall, as long as the family is immortal, those officers and soldiers who are straight will not want to step up to Erlong Mountain. ”

The next day, the brothers on Erlong Mountain, under the leadership of Lu Zhishen, waited for a whole morning, and did not see the officers and soldiers coming to attack the mountain.

In the afternoon, Murong Changlin, the prefect of the Governor's Mansion, personally led two thousand to rush over. Seeing Qin Ming, Murong Changlin immediately reprimanded: "Qin Ming, how did you become the commander of the soldiers and horses, you wasted so many men and horses handed over to you by this official, two full days have passed, not to mention the loss of more than a hundred soldiers, not to mention the grass on Erlong Mountain, how can you let me explain to the court." ”

Qin Ming didn't look at him showing off his might under this mountain, and he was stunned as a pioneer general, but as soon as he saw that Murong Changlin's prefect was angry, he immediately turned into a grass chicken, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground and said: "My lord is angry, and the lower officials are willing to love punishment." ”

Murong Prefect said: "What, you are willing to love punishment, let me ask you, how many heads have you Qin Ming grown." Didn't you say that you have the courage to be a man, and I will now hand over all these horses I brought to your command, go! You must set foot on Erlong Mountain before dark tomorrow, otherwise you will not go back. ”

As he spoke, he was surrounded by the officials, and rushed back to Yiqingzhou Mansion in a sedan chair. (To be continued.) )
