Lu Zhishen and Liu Tang almost didn't sleep all night, reminiscing about the past and reading today's life, but they were full of a lot of unknowns, helplessness, confusion, and pessimism about the future. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The next day, the two of them woke up early, washed their faces in the mountain stream, and simply ate a few mouthfuls of dry food before setting out on the road to Jeju Prefecture.

After walking seventy or eighty miles, I saw the tall gate tower of Jeju Mansion from a distance.

The flower monk Lu Zhishen pointed to a tea shed at the foot of the city wall, and said to the red-haired ghost Liu Tang: "Red-haired ghost, let's go there first to drink a bowl of tea before going into the city." ”

The red-haired ghost Liu Tang grinned and said: "I said monk, this is about to enter the city, drink that Menzi tea, or hurry into the city to find a hotel to sit and drink a few big bowls of wine, the smell of bird poop has faded out of my mouth in the past few days." It's not that I don't have any money in my pocket. ”

Lu Zhishen glared at Liu Tang and said, "I know that drinking, if you go in like this, I'm afraid you will be arrested by the official just after you arrive at the city gate." ”

Liu Tang touched his head and smirked: "Hehe, yes, it's still your monk who thinks thoughtfully." ”

The two came to the tea shed, asked for two bowls of tea, a plate of peanuts with shells, and drank the tea slowly, while drinking tea, while secretly observing the movement at the city gate.

After watching it for a long time, the people came in and out very casually, and there were no officers and soldiers there to investigate.

The flower monk Lu Zhishen waved his hand to call the old man who sold tea, pointed to the big straw hat hanging on the pillar and said, "Uncle, the weather is too hot, can you sell your straw hat to us?" ”

The old man said: "Guest officer, this is done, this straw hat is what I wear when I go out, and I sold you what I wear." ”

Lu Zhishen took out a piece of broken silver and said, "Uncle, even the straw hat and tea money, how about we give you half a tael of silver." ”

When the old man heard this, he grinned toothlessly and said, "Hehe, that feeling is good, I can't earn half a tael of silver even if I sell tea for a month." ”

Lu Zhishen threw the silver on the table, walked to the pillar, took off his straw hat and buckled it on the head of the red-haired ghost Liu Tang

He said, "Brother, let's go into the city." ”

The red-haired ghost Liu Tang grinned, and as the flower monk Lu Zhishen walked towards the city gate, the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate did not stop or interrogate them and let them in.

The flower monk Lu Zhishen felt that he and Liu Tang were cautious, but he didn't expect that the two of them would still be discovered.

And the person who discovered the whereabouts of Lu Zhishen and Liu Tang was standing on the city wall at this time, staring at the flower monk Lu Zhishen and the red-haired ghost Liu Tang.

This person's surname is Zhao, everyone can't remember what his name is, people call him Hawkeye Old Zhao.

Hawk-eyed Lao Zhao is in his fifties this year, and he is the head catcher of Jeju Prefecture, and he is also a well-known head catcher in this area.

So, why did this eagle-eyed old Zhao stand at the city wall, waiting for Lu Zhishen and Liu Tang, could he be Zhuge Liang, he could pinch and calculate, and calculated that Lu Zhishen and Liu Tang were going to enter Jeju City today, of course not.

The reason why the eagle-eyed old Zhao stood on the city wall was because yesterday after the Huoyun Dragon Shi Wenjing and the little white dragon Zhu Biao came back from their inspection, they reported the situation to the prefect Zhang Shuye, and when it was said that it was possible that the thieves from Liangshan were going to sneak into Jeju Mansion, the prefect Zhang Shuye nodded and said: "Hmph, these thieves have always come and gone without a trace, let's rather believe them than believe them, or take some precautions." ”

So, Uncle Zhang passed the head-catcher eagle-eyed old Zhao in and said, "Zhao Zhutou, you are familiar with those Shuibo Liangshan thieves Kou Ke. ”

Eagle-eyed old Zhao nodded again and again: "Familiar, familiar, I have long seen their drawings in my eyes and remembered them in my heart, no matter who those thieves are, as long as I pass in front of my eyes, I can recognize him at a glance." ”

Uncle Zhang nodded and praised: "Okay, it is worthy of the eagle-eyed old Zhao." Zhao Zhutou, when Shi Wenjing and Zhu Biao led a team out of the city to inspect yesterday, they found that there were two people, it seemed to be Lu Zhishen and Liu Tang from Liangshan, because of the distance, I am not sure, but we must also be vigilant and take precautions. ”

Hawk-eyed Lao Zhao said: "Then my lord, what do you let the villain do." ”

Uncle Zhang said schemingly: "Tomorrow, you go to the city gate in the direction of Liangshan and keep an eye on it, if you find them entering the city, don't alarm them first, just let them in, this official has his own strategy." ”

Hawk-eyed Lao Zhao said: "The adult is wise, and the villain does it." ”

In this way, when the city gate opened in the morning, the eagle-eyed old Zhao ran to the city wall and stood there, and began to patrol the people entering the city with a pair of eagle-eyed eyes, and stood there for more than three hours, and finally brought the flower monk Lu Zhishen and the red-haired ghost Liu Tang and others.

The eagle-eyed old Zhao saw that it was indeed the flower monk Lu Zhishen and the red-haired ghost Liu Tang, the two most ferocious robbers in Liangshan, and said secretly in his heart: "The prefect is really clever, if you can catch these two thieves this time, it will be a great achievement." ”

Thinking of this, the eagle-eyed old Zhao waved his hand and beckoned a catcher to come over and said: "You hurry up and report to the prefect that the prefect has learned, and he will say that the flower monk Lu Zhishen and the red-haired ghost Liu Tang have entered the city, and I will take someone to keep an eye on them." ”

The catcher quickly agreed, turned around and ran down the city wall to report to Uncle Zhang.

Hawk-eyed Lao Zhao led the five catchers who had already changed into civilian clothes, quietly went down the city wall, and quietly followed behind Lu Zhishen and Liu Tang.

Since it was the big market today, the residents of the nearby villages and towns had come to the city to catch the market, and the streets of Jeju were crowded with people.

The flower monk Lu Zhishen and the red-haired ghost Liu Tang didn't notice that they had been followed, and the two of them were still looking around and watching the excitement.

After seeing the excitement, the red-haired ghost Liu Tang said to Lu Zhishen: "Monk, let's find a shop to eat something, my brothers are almost hungry and faint." ”

Lu Zhishen said: "Okay! With that, the two walked into a hotel facing the street.

Hawk-eyed Lao Zhao said to one of his subordinates: "You hurry up and report to the prefect, and a few of us will enter the store and keep an eye on it." He led four of his subordinates to follow up with the hotel.

When the shopkeeper saw Lu Zhishen and Liu Tang entering the store, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "What are the two guest officers eating?" ”

The red-haired ghost Liu Tang said: "Hugh asked, what good wine and good food are served." ”

The shopkeeper pointed at Lu Zhishen and said, "Then this master is not quitting." ”

Liu Tang smiled and said: "This master doesn't eat human flesh, he doesn't have anything to eat, and he just brings good wine and food." ”

The shopkeeper said: "Okay, the two of you will sit down for a while, and the wine and food will be served immediately." ”

At this time, Hawkeye Lao Zhao and the other five people also entered the store and sat at the table opposite Lu Zhishen.

The shopkeeper stepped forward and said, "Five guest officers, what are you going to do?" ”

Eagle-eyed Lao Zhao pretended to say: "Four dishes, three pots of wine." ”

Soon, both tables of food and wine were served.

The flower monk Lu Zhishen and the red-haired ghost Liu Tang ate in a big gulp, and after drinking six or seven glasses of wine in a row, Liu Tang shouted: "It's good, the wine is good, and the food is fragrant, I haven't eaten such good wine and food for a long time." ”

Lu Zhishen looked at Liu Tang and said, "Brother, can you have a little bit of fun, what are you doing when you have a meal and shouting?" As he spoke, he casually glanced at the guests at the opposite table, but saw the signs.

The five guests on the opposite table, although they were all dressed as croppers, but one of them held the chopsticks with a very white and slender hand.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhishen pretended to be careless again, raised his eyes and glanced at the guests opposite a few times, who knew that there were two people who were unnaturally avoiding their gaze.

Understood, the flower monk Lu Zhishen understood that he and Liu Tang had been followed, needless to say that this must be someone from the government.

The flower monk Lu Zhishen picked up the wine jug casually, stood up, and while pouring wine into the cup of the red-haired ghost Liu Tang, he gently kicked Liu Tang and snorted at the opposite table.

The red-haired ghost Liu Tang is a person who has been in the beggar group since he was twelve or thirteen years old, and he is an authentic old Jianghu, and he also found signs when he swept his eyes.

So, the red-haired ghost Liu Tang made a gesture of cutting off his head, meaning that he had to strike first and slaughter these people.

The flower monk Lu Zhishen shook his head and said softly: "Brother, calm down, don't act rashly until the last resort." After speaking, Lu Zhishen looked around and found that there was a corner door on the left side of his body, and he was secretly happy in his heart. He raised his wine glass and raised his voice and said to Liu Tang: "Come, my brother will be drunk today, no matter what he is tomorrow." ”

The red-haired ghost Liu Tang smiled knowingly and picked up his wine glass and said, "Haha, I didn't expect your monk to really be able to see it, come and drink, drink!" The two of them drank seven or eight glasses of wine in a row.

The eagle-eyed old Zhao and the others, while slowly drinking wine, secretly stared at Lu Zhishen and Liu Tang with their eyes, praying in their hearts that the prefect would quickly lead the people to come.

At this time, I heard a sound of "pop" coming from the opposite table, and several people looked at it in surprise, and the red-haired ghost Liu Tang stared drunken and said: "What do you see, haven't you seen people who eat drunk, and then look at the careful eyes and pull out your eyeballs, and step on them." ”

The flower monk Lu Zhishen hurriedly persuaded: "Brother, don't drink it." If you drink it again, you will get drunk. ”

The red-haired ghost Liu Tang staggered to his feet and said, "That one who has drunk too much, and if he comes to him with ten bowls and eight bowls, grandpa will not be drunk." As he spoke, he pulled Lu Zhishen and said: "Stay away, I'm going to Xiaojie." ”

Lu Zhishen hurriedly flashed to the side and said, "Brother, don't you need to sprinkle your family to help you." ”

The red-haired ghost Liu Tang said with a big tongue: "Monk, the little brother didn't drink too much, what are you helping, you sit first, and I'll come when I go." Wait for me. As he spoke, he stumbled towards the door of the store.

The few catchers looked at the red-haired ghost Liu Tang at a loss.

The red-haired ghost Liu Tang staggered to the door of the store, and suddenly turned around and shouted: "Monk, if you don't do it at this time, when will you stay." (To be continued.) )
