Chapter Twenty-Eight: Lin Chong, the Leopard's Head
On this day, after Shi Jin finished training the soldiers and horses, he invited the leaders to the Juyi Hall to discuss the matter.
Chen Da came in and said, "Brother, is he going down the mountain to do the right thing for the sky?" ”
Shi Jin shook his head and said, "No, there are other things, let's talk about it when everyone arrives." How's your team doing? ”
Chen Da said confidently: "Some have grown, and they will definitely be able to overturn Yang Chun's team this month." ”
Yang Chun, who strode in, said with a smile: "Brother Chen Da should not be too optimistic, and the junior brother's team has never relaxed, I think this first place is probably still my team." ”
Shi Jin said with a smile: "I think Brother Zhu Gui's team is also practicing well, maybe the top spot this month will be his team." ”
Zhu Gui, who was sitting in the back, said modestly: "My two teams have not been practicing for a long time, and I am afraid they are not as good as the teams of the two elder brothers." ”
Zhu Wu smiled: "It may not be possible this month, but I am optimistic about the team of the Zhu Gui brothers next month." ”
Years later, Zhu Wu began to teach the formations of each team.
In fact, the formation of soldiers is to train the cooperation of soldiers, and through local cooperation, it can be more effective to fight.
Chen Da and Yang Chun were a little unimpressed with Zhu Wu's military formation, and they had less time to study, while although Zhu Gui was also born in the rivers and lakes, he was not a person who blindly fought fiercely.
Of course, when you first start learning, the unfamiliar team will not cooperate well, and even there will be chaos, and the combat effectiveness will not be as good as fighting alone.
This is also the reason why Chen Da and Yang Chun don't look down on the soldiers.
Chen Da shouted unconvinced: "Brother Zhu Wu said this, why don't we take a gamble?" ”
Zhu Wu smiled: "Okay, how do you say to bet?" ”
Chen Da thought for a while and said: "Brother Zhu Gui's team is the latest to be reorganized, and I don't want him to win the first place, that is, his team can have two of my teams left, and my brother will win." Otherwise, I won, and the bet will be a hundred taels of silver, how about it? ”
Zhu Wu said with a smile: "In this way, Zhu Gui's two teams must win against you and Yang Chun's three teams before I win." ”
During the big competition, the team is drawn to compete in pairs, and Zhu Gui's two teams may even have an internal fight, even if one team wins the first place, it may not be able to meet Chen Da's two teams.
Chen Da saw that Zhu Wu was so optimistic about Zhu Gui, and said angrily: "Brother said this, then it is decided." Yang Chun, do you bet? ”
Yang Chun shook his head and said, "I'll forget it, it's not easy for Brother Zhu Wu to save some silver." ”
Everyone laughed and waited until Zhang Qing, Sun Erniang, and Ruan's three heroes went up the mountain.
Before Ruan Xiaoqi could sit down, he asked, "My brother called us, what do you command?" ”
Shi Jin saw that everyone had arrived, so he said: "Recently, I feel that my marksmanship has reached a bottleneck, so I want to go to Tokyo to find Lin Chong, the head of the 800,000 forbidden army, to ask for advice or two, in order to make a breakthrough." ”
In fact, he still wanted to Tokyo to see if Lin Chong would be framed by Gao Yu. If he was framed, he would save it, otherwise Lin Chong's life would be lost.
After all, that Huahua Tai Sui Gao Yanei loves the wives and daughters of lewd people, and he can't say that he doesn't look at Lin Chong as the head of the sect at all, plus that group of villains, even if he knows that he is Lin Chong's wife, he will want to bully.
If Lin Chong's fate changed greatly, he would really go to ask for advice or two, and it would not be in vain.
Wang Jin and Lin Chong have some friendship, presumably Lin Chong will not turn him away.
Zhu Wu also knew that Shi Jin was a good martial artist, and when he heard the words, he asked, "I don't know when my brother is going?" ”
Shi Jin thought for a while and said, "At least twenty days, more than a month, I will take Shi Zhu to go, if it is postponed, I will let him come back to report the news." ”
As soon as the words fell, Ruan Xiaoqi said: "I also listened to Tokyo is so lively, why don't my brother take me to see it?" ”
Shi Jin shook his head and said: "You are straightforward and fast-talking, most of the people around Lin Jiaotou must be people in the government, if we are seen through, we don't care if we lose our lives, if we are involved, it will not be good." My brother is still training in the cottage, and when I come back, everyone will go down the mountain to kill a few big families. ”
Ruan Xiaoqi heard Shi Jin's righteousness, so he also smiled and said: "It's okay, then I'll wait for my brother to come back and take us to kill the Quartet." ”
Zhu Wu hugged his fists and said: "Then we will wish my brother a smooth journey." ”
The other chieftains also spoke auspicious words.
Shi Jin said with a smile: "When I am away, the brothers are good at training, if there is nothing important, don't go down the mountain." If there is an incident, you must get the permission of the military advisor. How could the brothers do it? ”
"Follow my brother's orders."
……
Shi Jin saw that everyone agreed, and said with a smile: "Okay, then I'll rest assured." ”
Everyone gossiped again, and went to the cafeteria to practice for Shi Jin.
The next day, Shi Jin changed his outfit and took Shi Zhu down the mountain.
Shi Jin was originally handsome, his figure grew up, and he changed his brocade clothes and jade belt, which is more like the prince and grandson.
Even Shi Zhu, who has regained his identity as a small servant, is also a freshly dressed angry horse, born and smart.
On the way, when the public saw the two of them, who dared to interrogate them carefully.
Within a few days, the two arrived in Tokyo.
Sure enough, what a bustling place.
Thousands of households, Zhu Cui shines.
Don't say that the prince and grandson are all neatly dressed in the market, and when they meet acquaintances, they invite them to sit on the ground in the teahouse wine shop, so they are not at ease.
Shi Jin was a little stunned.
A helper saw that Shi Jin's master and servant were both brightly dressed, and it seemed that it was the first time he came to Tokyo, so he came up and said, "Do officials need an errand who is familiar with the capital?" ”
Help!
Help the rich make money, spend money, and have fun.
There are also two famous helpers in the Water Margin, the first is Gao Yu, and the second is the prodigal son Yanqing.
Yan Qing is a native of Beijing, his parents died when he was a child, and Lu Junyi's family raised him. In order to see that he was also like white meat in the snow, Lu Junyi asked a master craftsman to tattoo this body with him all over the body embroidery, but it was like a jade pavilion pillar paved with soft emerald.
No, a good embroidery, but also blowing, playing, singing, dancing, dismantling the white words, the top is really continued hemp, nothing can't, nothing can't. It is also said that the road and the countryside talk, the provincial city language of all the arts, and the ability of no one to compare. Holding a Sichuan crossbow, only using three short arrows, falling in the suburbs, and not emptying, the arrows fall to the object, enter the city at night, and kill a hundred and ten insects and ants. If the competition is in the championship club, the profits and things there are all his. And this person is very clever and knows the end.
Thinking about it, Lu Junyi originally wanted to build Yanqing into a competition sports and competition club, and a helpful person for feasting and drinking.
It's just that Yan Qingsheng is clever, from helping to being Lu Junyi's confidant, when Lu Junyi took Li Gu to Liangshan, he let Yan Qing take care of his family.
But when Lu Junyi was leaving, he told Yan Qing not to go out and make a fuss.
What is coaxing, when Song Jiang first saw Master Li, he said some handsome words in the market, but Chai Jin answered, Yan Qing stood on the side, and coaxed and teased.
It can be seen that when Yan Qing was in Beijing, she also made a living by helping idle.
However, Yan Qingsheng is handsome and versatile, and he must have stolen the limelight of his master as a helper.
Even the head of the line, Master Li, was also stirred by Yan Qing.
It is worthy of the art garden specialization, the first place in the wind and moon bushes.
If Yan Qing is willing to coax in front of the emperor, I'm afraid Gao Yu should also return to his hometown.
Every state capital has some helpers, and Shi Jin also had a few helpers in Huayin County in the past, and he was no stranger to these people.
Shi Jin nodded and said, "Are you familiar with the streets of the capital?" ”
These people looked at Shi Jin as a player, and knew that they bumped into it today, so they said with a smile: "The villain Wang Yi, who grew up in Tokyo, is not boasting, there is no place that cannot be found in the three streets and six cities of Tokyo." I have also been called in front of several little marquis, three tiles and two houses, all of which are unfamiliar. ”
Shi Jin casually threw out five taels of silver, nodded and said, "It's good to be familiar, take us to find a place to settle down first." ”
Wang Yi helps people make money every day, how keen his eyes are, when he saw a silver light, he stretched out his hand to catch it, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
There are many rich boys who come to Tokyo to play, but it is not easy to meet such a generous one.
At that moment, Wang Yi was even more attentive and asked, "Is the little official going to the inn or the hospital?" ”
The courtyard is **, although Shi Jin has some ideas, but he is not so anxious, and said with a smile: "Let's find a clean and elegant inn to rest first." ”
This Wang Yi is really a professional helper, and without thinking too much, he led Shi into an inn.
After saving the horses and saluting, Shi Jin asked Wang Yi to take him to Fanlou for a drink.
arrived at the Fan Building, the head of the seventy-two main stores in Tokyo, Shi Zhu's little guy was stunned again.
The end is the sheng reed deaf ears, the drum music is noisy, the lights are bright, and the visitors are like ants.
The three of them went up to Fan Lou, occupied a pavilion, and asked the bartender to take two bottles of colored wine, rare fruit case wine.
Shi Jin asked Wang Yi to sit down at the bottom and eat wine together.
Wang Yi thanked him and sat down, and when he saw that Shi Jin's cup was empty, he served him diligently.
After eating a few cups, Shi Jin asked, "Do you know that the 800,000 forbidden army is the head of Lin Chong?" ”
Wang Yi nodded and said: "I know, Lin Jiaotou is a native of Tokyo, the Lin family is famous for guns, in the early years, Lin Jiaotou was anxious, and I don't know how many lieutenant generals and officers he overturned, and he was good at martial arts." ”
"Listening to your words, the head of the Lin Sect has not been in a hurry all these years?"
Shi Jin didn't doubt Wang Yi's statement, when Li Xiaoer, who opened a hotel in Cangzhou, and his wife found out that Gao Yu was going to send someone to harm Lin Chong again, when Li Xiaoer's family asked Li Xiaoer to call Lin Chong to find out if it was Lu Yuhou, Li Xiaoer said that Lin Chong was a person with an anxious personality, and he would kill people and set fire if he couldn't touch it. Doing something must have affected them, and they didn't dare to ask Lin Chong to go to the hotel to admit it.
After Lin Chong was deceived by Lu Yuhou that day, Zhang also persuaded Lin Chong.
Lin Chong didn't comply, and said that he was only afraid that he wouldn't bump into Gao Yanei, and he also took care of his head. He blocked in front of the Taiwei Mansion for three days, so frightened that Gao Yanei and Lu Yuhou did not dare to come out.
Lu Qian, who was obviously good with Lin Chong, also knew Lin Chong's temperament, so he didn't dare to come out.
Wang Yi said: "After Lin Jiaotou got married, he rarely had trouble, and I heard that his wife was very virtuous. ”
said, adding: "Sect Leader Lin was also a master who could make trouble in Tokyo back then, so we all know some things about him. ”
Shi Jin didn't know that Lin Chong was also a little bully back then, but even if Lin Chong was also from Jiangmen, he was anxious, and it was reasonable to cause some trouble, so he smiled at the moment: "I came to Tokyo this time to visit him, you can help me ask where he lives." Pick up some gifts tomorrow, visit him first, and then play. ”
Wang Yi nodded and said: "This matter is easy, Lin Jiaotou is a famous person in Tokyo, I will know his residence tomorrow morning after a little inquiry, and I will definitely not be able to mistake the affairs of the officials." If the officials are still in spirit, after eating and drinking, they can go to the Zhouqiao Night Market or Washe to play. ”
Shi Jin said with a smile: "Then let's go to the Zhouqiao Night Market first, and then go to Vasher for a walk." ”
The folk art activities of the Song Dynasty were very prosperous, and there were many people who relied on literature and art to make a living.
The clever ones made a living in Washer, and the second ones traveled through the state to perform in tea houses and wine shops, or on the streets, begging for some spare money.
There are a lot of these two kinds of artists in the Water Margin, there are Li Kui and Yan Qing's Sangjiawa in the Washe Goulan, the Yuncheng County Goolan where Lei Heng beat Bai Xiuying, and the newly married concubine of Jiang Menshen when he first came to Mengzhou.
As for the Luqi people who go through the state to sell their arts, there are more Jin Cuilian who was saved by Luda, Yan Poxi who was raised by Song Jiangyang, Zhang Xixi who sang songs by Ximen Qingyang, and Song Yulian who was poked down by Li Kui with one finger in Jiangzhou.
Li Zhong, the tiger general among the heroes of Liangshan, and Xue Yong, the sick insect, also belong to the Luqi people.
Each state and county has Washe Goolan of different sizes, and the Song people also like to go to Washe Goolan to play.
Shi Zhu, this little guy, heard that he could go to the hook bar to play, and suddenly his eyebrows danced.
Shi Jin looked at him, ate for a while, and then got up to leave.
The three of them walked for a while in the Zhouqiao Night Market, bought some snacks to eat, and then came to the Washe concentration in the south of Panlou Street.
When I got closer, I could hear the cheers inside.
Wang Yi said: "The nearest is Sangjiawa, followed by Zhongwa and Liwa, Liwa is the largest, there are more than 20 hook fences, among which the Yaksha shed and the elephant shed can accommodate thousands of people. ”
When Shi Zhu heard the elephant shed, he couldn't help but ask: "Is there an elephant show in the elephant shed?" ”
Wang Yi nodded and said, "Well, in addition to the imperial court, you can go to the Xuande Gate to see the white elephant as a salute." On weekdays, you can only see elephants in the elephant shed, but the elephants in the elephant shed are not white elephants raised by the imperial court. ”
"Or ......"
Shi Zhu shouted, then thought of his identity and shut up.
Shi Jin looked at him with blank eyes, and knew his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Since Riva is the biggest, then let's go to Riva." ”
"Officials go this way."
With Wang Yi, an old horse who knows the way, led the way, and in a short time, the three of them came to Riva.
Shi Jin also likes to go to Goolan in Huayin County, otherwise he would not have met Li Ruilan in Xiwazi, Dongping Mansion later, but Goolan in the county seat and Washe in Tokyo are completely incomparable.
Riva is more like a large **, there are stalls selling medicine, divination, selling old clothes, playing, eating, shaving, paper painting, Lingqu and so on.
At intervals, there are hook bars surrounded by wooden railings, and the performance in each hook bar is different.
Miscellaneous plays, operas, blowing balls, singing, telling history, sumo, taming animals, etc.
Tokyo's hook bar is to collect money to enter the venue, which is different from Yuncheng County's reward money after the performance.
Presumably, this is also the reason why Wang Po introduced Yan Po to Song Jiang and said that the people of Yuncheng County don't like to have fun, so Yan Po, who can sing all kinds of tricks, can't live.
If you want to collect money to enter the venue, I'm afraid that few people will go in, so Yuncheng County Goolan can only let people in first, hoping that the performance will be good and people will be able to appreciate some money.
Tokyo doesn't have this worry, even if you have to pay to see it, it's crowded inside.
If you have less money, buy a station location, enter the door and walk straight in.
If you have a lot of money, you can buy a place to sit, enter the slope of the wooden plank on the door, and then walk to the wooden grandstand, the grandstand is in a semicircle, row after row of seats, layer upon layer, facing the stage.
Below the stands are standing spectators.
There have been Goolans that collapsed and crushed dozens of people, but this could not stop the Song people from visiting Gooling.
Shi Jin and the three of them saw the third watch in Vasher, and then they returned to the inn unsatisfied.
