When Chen Zikun was still in the den of horse thieves, he listened to the stories told by his predecessors on the rivers and lakes, and when he worshiped the mountain, the other party would try your catties and taels, and he would ask this kind of question about the hard bed and the soft bed, the so-called hard bed is a bar, and the so-called soft bed is a rope suspended in mid-air.

Whether it's sleeping on a pole or a rope, it's not something that ordinary people do, you have to be a martial artist to be competent, I didn't expect that today's legend has become a reality, it seems that this military advisor is really an old man.

Looking at Chen Zikun's expression, Sun Guizhi smiled and said: "The conditions in the mountains are difficult, the hard bed is the door panel, and the soft bed is the hammock, but it is not the soft sofa bed of foreigners." ”

Chen Zikun understood that he had misunderstood, so he also smiled and said, "Then make a hard bed." ”

Sun Guizhi slapped his face: "Come on, take Boss Chen to rest." ”

A small minion took Chen Zikun to the wing room behind Chaoyunguan to stay, this was originally the place where Taoist priests lived, bandits were rampant, Taoist priests had long disappeared, the courtyard was very quiet, only a little boy with clear eyebrows stood at the door, wearing a very ill-fitting shabby Taoist robe, looking only eleven or twelve years old.

"Serve this uncle well." The little minion explained, turned around and left, and the little boy hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, "Uncle, please come here." As he spoke, he welcomed Chen Zikun into the wing, made tea and poured water, and served carefully.

Chen Zikun was very surprised to see that he was polite and polite, and there was a fresh and elegant smell between his gestures, which was incompatible with the environment of the bandits' den, so he asked, "What's your name?" ”

"If you go back to the uncle, the little one is called Qingfeng."

"It's a strange name."

"Uncle Hui, this is the name given by Master."

"Who is your master?"

"The family teacher Dao Qi Xiazi is the master of Chaoyun Temple, and now he has traveled west with a crane."

It turned out to be a little Taoist, Chen Zikun quipped: "Since there is a breeze, the bright moon is indispensable." ”

Qingfeng replied gloomily: "Uncle Hui, Mingyue is dead." ”

"How did you die?" Chan's expression became serious.

This time, Qingfeng stopped talking, and fell to his knees with a thud, his head bowed, and his face was full of fear.

Chen Zikun suddenly understood that in the bandits' den, the handsome little boy naturally inevitably ended up being sodomized, that Mingyue was probably abused to death, and the breeze in front of him may have suffered a lot of humiliation.

It should have been the age of being coquettish in the arms of his parents, but he was trapped in a bandit's den, a slave and a servant, it was really pitiful and pathetic, Chen Zikun sighed and said, "You get up." ”

After a while, the food was brought in from outside, white flour steamed buns, pig's head meat, pheasant, wheat kernel porridge, and a pot of wine, which could be regarded as a very rich food in the village where supplies were scarce.

As soon as Chen Zikun picked up the chopsticks, he suddenly saw Qingfeng swallowing saliva, so he beckoned him to come over to eat together, and the child hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't dare." ”

"Eat it if you want to." Chen Zikun raised his eyebrows, forced Qingfeng over, stuffed a pair of chopsticks in his hand, and put steamed buns and pig's head meat in front of him.

"Master said you can't eat meat." Qingfeng said in fear.

"I said I could eat it if I could." Chen Zikun is extremely arrogant.

Qingfeng is a child in the end, he can't help but be scared, take the chopsticks and eat, it doesn't matter, the chopsticks are like a shuttle, and the huge steamed bun is even more three or five bites.

After eating three steamed buns, Qingfeng choked and hiccuped, holding his stomach happily and smiling, he knew that this big uncle, who looked fierce, was actually a good person.

Chen Zikun took the opportunity to take his words and inquired about the specific situation of the Baoqianggu cottage, don't look at Qingfeng's young age, his brain is smart, the things on the mountain are clear, and he is even more orderly.

It turns out that the origin of this group of bandits entrenched in the calf is very complicated, the largest group is a group of people led by Sun Meiyao, in the early years, Sun Da was also a child of a good family, and later was raided by bandits and officers and soldiers in a hurry, simply burned their ancestral house, gathered a group of heroes to fall into the grass for the coward, the troops snowballed like a strongest, the strongest there were nearly 10,000 people, the number and very magnificent, called Shandong Jianguo Autonomous Army, listening to the name seems to have a bit of revolutionary nature, indicating that there is no lack of insight in this gang of bandits.

Later, Sun Meizhu, the owner of Dazhai, was arrested by the officers and soldiers, beheaded for public display, and the head was hung on the flagpole of the Lincheng Railway Station for several days, and Sun Meiyao, the strongest martial arts among the brothers, succeeded as the commander, leading the brothers to confront the officers and soldiers, but this day was a bit difficult, it was common to not eat, and there was a shortage of guns and bullets.

The boy who drilled the mountain leopard was originally a ruffian, belonging to the Shandong Army to which Zhang Jingyao belonged, and later Zhang Inspector won the battle in Hunan, and the troops he incorporated were scattered into bandits, and there were seventy or eighty people under the hands of the leopard, all of whom had fast guns, and they were considered a vital force in the Shandong Jianguo Autonomous Army, so Sun Meiyao also had to respect him for three points.

When it came to the Diamond Mountain Leopard, Qingfeng was very excited and told Chen Zikun that Uncle you had beaten the Diamond Mountain Leopard, and the brothers in the cottage were very relieved.

Chen Zikun has a number in his heart, and bandits are not monolithic.

"Who is Sun Guizhi, do you know?" Chan asked again.

"Uncle Sun is the owner of the old village, and our whole village listens to him." Qingfeng Channel.

"The lord of the village also listens to him?" Chen Zikun frowned, this problem is a bit serious, Sun Guizhi is obviously cunning and cunning, it is not easy to fool, it seems that his plan is going to change.

"Well, listen to him." Qingfeng nodded earnestly.

"Have there been any newcomers on the mountain recently?" Chan also mentioned an issue of greatest concern.

Qingfeng thought for a while and said: "Yes, there are several people who say that they have worked as laborers in foreign countries, and they can't eat when they return to their hometowns, so they work with the main village of Dazhai." ”

"Is Erbao one of them?"

"There's such a person."

Chen Zikun nodded: "When you go out tomorrow, you follow me, and when you see them, you will wink, understand?" ”

"Got it." Qingfeng replied with his head held high, he felt very happy to be able to do things for Uncle Chen.

……

Early the next morning, Qingfeng offered face wash and breakfast, as well as rare toothbrushes and tooth powder and towels.

After washing up and having breakfast, Sun Meiyao sent someone to invite Chen Zikun to the main hall to discuss matters, from the backyard to the front hall, three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, all over the samurai, Chen Zikun knew that this time Sun Meiyao was going to have a showdown with himself.

In front of the main hall, hundreds of bandits gathered, one by one standing majestically, the guys in their hands have obviously been wiped, shining in the early morning sun, although it is a group of rabble, but in the end, it is a habitual bandit who has been fighting with the official army for many years, and it looks like it is full of momentum.

Chen Zikun was about to walk forward, when he suddenly heard a loud shout: "Set up the knife door!" ”

There was a loud sound of wolves, and eighty-eight sixty-four bandits drew their waist knives and set up a bright knife door in the air.

Chen Zikun laughed heartily, lifted up his shirt and walked calmly under the knife door, without fear.

The leaders on the top of the hall showed appreciation, and Sun Guizhi nodded slightly, this is a trick he deliberately arranged, Chen Zikun successfully passed the test, such a frank and brave person, he will definitely not be a young person, and the cottage can believe him.

The main hall of Chaoyun Temple is dedicated to the three Qings, from left to right is the Taiqing Daode Tianzun who dominates the generation of all things, the Yuqing Primordial Tianzun who dominates the period of Yin and Yang and the chaotic period, and the Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun who dominates the period when Yin and Yang first judge the formation of heaven and earth.

Under the statue, there are twelve chairs, the owner of the village Sun Meiyao is not allowed to sit in the first place, the rest are the leaders of the village, all of them are fully armed, with a solemn expression, among them, there is a conflict yesterday Drill Mountain Leopard, it is surprising that the old village owner Sun Guizhi did not hand over the chair, but stood respectfully behind Sun Meiyao, if he did not know his identity in advance, he would probably think that he was just an old follower.

Chen Zikun hugged his fists and said: "I've seen the big bosses, I've seen all the masters." ”

Everyone returned the salute, only the diamond leopard turned his face with disdain, no wonder, Chen Zikun's slap yesterday was hard enough, and the five finger prints are still clearly visible.

Sun Meiyao coughed dryly and said: "Boss Chen, we have discussed, and now we officially reply to you, the Shandong Jianguo Autonomous Army made this transaction, purely for the sake of the lives of the cottage brothers, we don't want gold, we don't want silver, as long as the court recruits peace." ”

Chen Zikun was secretly happy in his heart, it seems that yesterday's conversation with Sun Meiyao was still very effective.

Sun Meiyao continued: "We have these three conditions, first, the official army will lift the encirclement of Junshan and retreat twenty miles, second, give us a brigade formation, I must get a brigade commander, otherwise the brothers will not agree, and third, we must supplement 1,000 guns and 100,000 rounds of ammunition." ”

As he spoke, he handed over a piece of paper, on which the conditions of the bandits were written with a brush, and the handwriting was delicate and handsome, and it seemed that there was no shortage of learned people in the bandits.

"Several of our leaders have pressed their handprints, please ask Boss Chen to hand it over to someone who can manage things on the government side." Sun Meiyao said, hugged her fists and said: "Sun Meiyao has thanked you here!" ”

These words were full of energy, and the dust on the beams fell down.

All the leaders also stood up and bowed their hands: "Thank you here!" ”

Chen Zikun returned the courtesy: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”

Sun Meiyao returned to her seat and continued: "We Shandong Jianguo Autonomous Army is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, and we were only forced to be helpless after robbing this ticket, and now in order to show sincerity, we have decided to release a batch of meat tickets, there are four kinds of people who can be released immediately, cough cough, military division, which four kinds of people are coming?" ”

Sun Guizhi stood up and said, "One, Mr. Sun Wen's subordinates; 2. Revolutionary colleagues who participated in the Haizhou Rebellion and the Bozhou Rebellion; 3. The family has less than 40 acres of land; Fourth, there are hundreds of skills in medicine and witchcraft. In addition, the father is left without the son, the brother is not the younger brother, and the husband is not the wife. ”

The righteousness of the words was awe-inspiring, and Chen Zikun also praised it very cooperatively: "It is indeed a mighty and benevolent teacher." But the scene of Sun Meiyao shooting the young woman yesterday came to mind.

Sun Meiyao said: "These people, after screening, they will be released immediately, and they will be personally taken down the mountain by Boss Chen. ”

Hearing only the sound of footsteps, foreign reporter Powell was taken to the main hall.
