"Northside?"

Chao Gai thought about it for a while, most people from the north went to Cangzhou Chai's officials, but not many came to him.

After thinking for a moment, Chao Gai said, "How about asking a few leaders of Liangshan to do this?" ”

Wu Yong listened, shook his head and said: "The heroes of Liangshan do the way for the heavens, rob the rich and help the poor, if they hear about this ill-gotten gain, I am afraid that they will give it to the people if they take it." Moreover, if they deliberately leak the news and force us to fall into the grass after they succeed, it will not be beautiful. Since the Liu Tang brothers came here, they must have been unwilling to do so. ”

Liu Tang is a straight person, and immediately said: "Don't hide it from the two elder brothers, and the younger brother doesn't know what to do for heaven." Just thinking about taking this ill-gotten gain, everyone is divided, and they want to be happy for the rest of their lives. As a last resort, the younger brother is also unwilling to fall into the grass. ”

Chao Gai said: "Shi Jin is a real man, and he won't harm anyone if he thinks about it, but this matter was discovered by the Liu Tang brothers, and when you don't want to, we won't partner with the people of Liangshan." If I think about it again, I can't really remember for a moment that there are any available people in the north. ”

Wu Yong knew the character of this friend, and believed in those gods and ghosts since he was a child, so he went to seize the stone tower of Xixi Village at the beginning, and he had the nickname of King Tota.

Just now he heard the Big Dipper, and casually said that there were people in the north who were helping, and Chao Gai only thought about the people in the north.

Wu Yong said helplessly: "We are also counted as people from the north, and my brother doesn't have to think about it to the north." ”

Chao Gai thought about it, compared to the land south of the Yangtze River, Shandong is also considered to be the north.

smiled at the moment: "It's me who wants to fork in, if you find Shandong Haojie, it will be easy." However, most of them are walking on the rivers and lakes, and they have no fixed place to live, and it is not easy to contact each other in a hurry. There is a pair of uncles and nephews, the uncle is called Lin Long Zou Yuan, and the nephew is called the unicorn dragon Zou Run, both of them are of general age, they have a good martial arts, and they are from idle men, and they have come to vote for me before. In the first two years, I went to sea and saved a lot of furniture, so I settled in Dengzhou. However, the two are generous, love to receive friends on the rivers and lakes, and are good at gambling, and they are afraid that their family savings are not much. I asked people to invite them, and they should come. Including their uncles and nephews, there were five of them. If you find two or three more people on the rivers and lakes, you will be able to get this matter. ”

Wu Yong saw that Chao Gai changed his mind, and immediately solved the problem of manpower, and said with a smile: "My brother knows a lot, and it is not difficult to find seven or eight good men." If you have enough people, you can find out the departure date and path of the birth gang. ”

Liu Tang said: "Little brother will go today." ”

Wu waved his hand and said: "Let's stay, his birthday is June 15, but now it is the beginning of May, and there are still forty or fifty days." Brother Liu came from afar, and it was not too late to rest for two days before going on the road. ”

Chao Gai nodded and said, "Yes, Brother Liu will rest for two days." ”

At that moment, Chao Gai sent a few henchmen to invite Zou Yuan, Zou Run and a few acquaintances in the green forest.

Liu Tang rested on Chaogaizhuang for two days.

On the third day, Liu Tang was going to go on the road.

Chao Gai asked people to prepare wine and meat early, and Wu Yong also rushed to see him off.

The three of them were eating and drinking, and they saw a Zhuang Ke report saying: "There is a gentleman in front of the door who wants to see Baozheng Hua Zhailiang." ”

Chao Gai said: "You don't know anything! Seeing that I treat the guests to eat and drink here, you will have three or five liters of rice with him, why do you have to ask me directly! ”

Zhuang Ke said: "The villain turns rice into rice with him, and he doesn't want it, as long as he meets Baozheng." ”

Chao Gai said: "It must be too little!" Then you will go with him three or two more meters. You said that with him, Baozheng invited people to eat and drink in the village today, and there was no time to meet. ”

Zhuang Ke went for a long time, only to see that he came again: "That gentleman, with him three buckets of rice, refused to go." He claimed to be a Qingdao man, and he didn't come for Qian Mi, but only asked to see Baozheng. ”

Chao Gai said unhappily: "You won't agree, so you said that you don't have time to do it today, and teach him to come to see him for tea another day." ”

Zhuang Ke said: "The villain also said the same, and the gentleman said: 'I don't eat for money, rice, and food, I heard that Baozheng is a righteous man, and I ask to see him.'" ’”

Chao Gai waved his hand and said: "You are also so entangled, you don't worry about me at all!" If he is too young, he can fight with him for three or four years, so why bother to say it again! If I don't drink with the guests, I'll go and meet them, what's the matter! Go and pay him, and then you have to talk about it!" ”

Liu Tang said with a smile: "The little brother is also full." It's better to go out together and see what kind of Qingdao people are here. ”

Chao Gai heard Liu Tang say this, so he said: "It's okay, then let's go out together to see who dares to come to me to sprinkle." ”

The three of them got up, but before they walked to the front of the village, they saw another Zhuang Kefei who also seemed to come to report: "The gentleman was angry and knocked down more than a dozen Zhuang guests." ”

The three of them were also taken aback, and when they walked quickly to the front of the village to look, they saw that the gentleman was eight feet long, dignified, and strange, and was beating the villagers under the green locust tree outside the village.

I saw the gentleman:

He wore two pine double buns on his head, wore a short brown robe with a collar of Bashan, tied with variegated silk at the waist, and a bronze sword with pine patterns on his back. The white flesh feet are lined with multi-eared hemp shoes, and the cotton bag holds a turtle shell fan in his hand.

figure-eight eyebrows, a pair of apricot eyes; Square mouth, a tribe of beards.

The gentleman hit his head and said with the other, "I don't know good people." ”

Chao Gai saw that this person was good at fists and feet, and shouted: "Mr. Calm your anger, you came to find Chao Baozheng, it is nothing more than to fasting and turning into fate, he has already been with you, why is it so angry?" ”

The gentleman laughed and said, "Poor people don't come for wine, food, money and rice. I coveted 100,000 yuan as if I was idle, and I came to find justice, there is a saying. The village man was unreasonable and slandered the poor road, so he was sexually angry. ”

Wu Yong heard 100,000 yuan, and immediately said to Chao Gai: "This gentleman is also a good man on the rivers and lakes, why don't Baozheng invite him into the village to talk again." ”

Chao Gai smiled: "I am Chao Baozheng, I was negligent before, how about inviting Mr. to come to the village to worship tea?" ”

The gentleman looked like Liu Tang was going to travel, and he also knew that the previous words of the Zhuang Ke were true, so he confessed his guilt and followed Chao Gai into the village.

Wu Yong also asked Liu Tang to go back together to see if this person was coming before leaving.

When the four of them arrived in the back hall together, Chao Gai asked people to serve tea, and asked, "Don't you dare to ask Mr. Gao's surname?" Where is your hometown? ”

Mr. Na replied: "The poor Daofu surname is Gongsun, and he has a single winning character, and the Taoist name is Mr. Yiqing." Xiaodao is a Jizhou people's clan, since childhood in the township good to learn guns and sticks, learn martial arts, but people call Gongsun Sheng Dalang. In order to learn some alchemy, understand some escape techniques, and be able to distinguish some days, outsiders only say that I can call the wind and rain, drive the fog and clouds, and the rivers and lakes are called poor roads to be the cloud dragon. ”

Chao Gai said for a long time, and then asked, "I don't know what advice Mr. has?" ”

Gongsun Sheng looked at Wu Yong and Liu Tang and said, "There are no outsiders here, so it's easy to say." ”

Chao Gai smiled: "Here are all henchmen, but it's okay to say." ”

Gongsun Sheng heard Chao Gai say this, and then said: "Poor Dao has heard the name of Chao Baozheng in Dongxi Village, Yuncheng County for a long time, and I have never visited him. ”

Chao Gai laughed and said, "What Mr. said, isn't it the Northland Birth Gang?" ”

Gongsun Sheng was shocked: "How can Baozheng know? ”

Liu Tang saw that Gongsun Sheng was also coming for this birthday gang, and said with a smile: "I have dedicated this birthday gang to Baozheng, and I am about to find out the way." ”

Gongsun Sheng saw that Chao Gai was already planning this matter, and said with a smile: "There is no need to go to this matter." Poor Dao has inquired and knows the number of roads he has come, but he is only coming from Huangnigang Road. ”

No matter who escorts the birth gang, the route will inevitably be left in the house in advance, and it will be easy to find out when something happens.

That's why they can find out the route.

Snakes have snake paths, rats have rat paths.

Chao Gai didn't ask Gongsun Sheng how he knew, and said: "Huangnigang East Shili Road, the place name is Anle Village, there is an idle man, called Bai Sheng, the day rat, who also came to me, and I helped him to entangle." ”

Wu Yong thought about using someone who was familiar with it, and said: "The white light on the Beidou, shouldn't it be in this person?" Useful for themselves. ”

Chao Gai's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "It seems that the will of heaven has made us do this, Bai Sheng is the white light, and we will gather the Big Dipper again." Now there are four people here, and three more will be enough. ”

Wu Yong nodded and said: "With the news of the Qing Daoist, we don't need to inquire about the news anymore, just wait here for the heroes invited by the elder brother." ”

At that moment, Chao Gai made people reorganize the banquet, the four of them had a meal, Wu Yongzi returned to the study, Liu Tang and Gongsun Sheng stayed in Chao Gaizhuang.

In less than ten days, the seven men had been gathered.

In addition to Zou Yuan, the dragon who came out of the forest, and Zou Run, the uncle and nephew of the unicorn dragon, there is another person who is Yang Lin, a golden leopard.

Yang Lin was originally a native of Zhangde Mansion, Hebei Province, and mostly settled in the green forest.

Last year, Liang Zhongshu's birthday gang was robbed, and Hebei visited tightly, so Yang Lin came to Shandong to avoid the limelight.

Later, Chao Gai also heard that he had settled in Yishui County, so he sent someone to find Yang Lin.

Chao Gai searched for a few people in the green forest, but only found the poplar forest.

However, Chao Gai, Wu Yong, Gongsun Sheng, Liu Tang, Yang Lin, Zou Yuan, and Zou Run are exactly seven people, which just responded to Chao Gai's dream of the Big Dipper, which made Chao Gai feel that this matter should be taken seriously.
