Chapter 393: Three Heroes and One Jie
I have to say that walking with the stuffy gourd Lao Jiao next to me makes the originally boring journey even more dull. Fortunately, the journey from Tokyo to Xiqing Mansion was only five or six hundred miles, which was not too long, and Ling Zhen's heart was full of that mysterious old army and the mysterious gunpowder formula, so he couldn't care about it.
"Lao Jiao, I don't think we should rush in the afternoon, let's go to Jeju City to rest for a day, and get up early tomorrow to attack Qingfu through Rencheng?" Although Ling Zhen is the deputy envoy of the Tokyo Jiazhan Library, he does not have any official status, and when he talks to Jiao Ting at this time, he is also in a consultative tone.
"Why? Go to Liangshan Boli and take the waterway but not closer? Jiao Ting's urn sounded the urn airway.
Ling Zhen shook his head, pointed to the north and said, "You are begging for a living here, don't you know that there is a green forest village in the north of the water?" His white-clothed scholar Wang Lun is also a registered figure in the imperial court, and now Cai Xiangcheng wants to send a large army to kill him, let's hurry, it's better not to mess with him! ”
Jiao Ting sneered and said, "What are you afraid of the traitor who is the opponent of the traitor?" Don't you have a ghost in your heart? Ask around and see which of the people is afraid of him! ”
Jiao Ting was a brute, and after speaking, he strode to the middle of the road, looked at the official road where people came and went, and shouted: "The heroes of Liangshan are here!" Ling Zhen was stunned when he saw this, at this time, including Jiao Ting's entourage, they all opened their mouths wide, I really don't know which brother Jiao Ting is singing?
Seeing this, the people passing by on the road stopped unconsciously, and looked at Jiao Ting very curiously, only to see that the road was suddenly divided into two groups of people, a group of local people, all of whom were very naturally surrounded and talked about something. Another group of people from other places mostly stood in place and watched the excitement from afar, and some people subconsciously wanted to flee and saw everyone's reaction. The herd mentality prevailed, and there was no escape at this time.
Someone asked out loud: "The blessing of the village of Tuoliang Mountain, now our Jeju is politically connected, and the villains are either cleaned up or reined in." But I don't know who the hero will take when he goes down the mountain today? ”
"No one will take it, I have an official from Tokyo here, walking on the road for fear that the cottage hero will find him trouble, I ask everyone to give him a relenting pill!" Jiao Ting pointed to Ling Zhendao, whose jaw was about to drop.
"Hey, it turns out that he is not a hero of Liangshan!" There was a sound of disappointment in the crowd, and most of the people who were watching the excitement dispersed in twos and threes, and suddenly saw an old man who was quite old stepped forward and pointed at Jiao Ting Education and said:
"You don't know how to do this, and the name of a good man in Liangshan also dares to be foolish? If it is rumored to go, it is that the kings of the cottage will not clean you up, and if you meet some upright descendants. Hit and discount your legs too! Who of us, the people of Jeju, didn't receive their kindness? Can I see you fooling around for nothing? The people around who hadn't left before they heard the words all stopped, and they all echoed it, accusing Jiao Ting of being too Meng Lang.
Ling Zhen was afraid that the five big and three rough old Jiao would have a conflict with the people, so he motioned to Jiao Ting's entourage to step forward and pull the frame, but Jiao Ting just smiled and didn't reply, the old man saw that Jiao Ting was a fool, and came to look for Ling Zhen, and saw that he looked like a leader. immediately said: "Take care of your companion, don't play tricks on this matter!" You're going to hit Tokyo, right? Just rest assured all the way, the cottage king will not find trouble with the people, if you don't feel sorry. Just go all the way! ”
Seeing that this old man was very serious, Ling Zhen didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said: "The kid has been a responsible person all the way, and he doesn't dare to do anything wrong." Thank you for your teachings! ”
Seeing this, the old man discussed a few words with the passers-by around him, and was about to leave. Not wanting Ling Zhen to be curious for a while, he stepped forward and hugged his fists and said: "Dare to ask the uncle, just now you said that the people around you have received a lot of Liangshan's kindness, I don't know what you mean?" ”
The old man was originally the one who was leaving, but seeing that Ling Zhen was very polite, he stood still at the moment and said: "There is a big flag erected on Liangshanbo, what is written, you guests from Tokyo must not know what to do!" ”
"Acting for the heavens?" Ling Zhen is not a lonely person, and he blurted out his debut.
The old man looked surprised and said, "The name of Liangshanbo has been spread to Kaifeng Mansion?" If only our Zhao official family could learn from Wang ......"
The old man's companion hurriedly pulled him, and the old man immediately understood, shook his head, and said: "It's far away, it's far away, it's too old to control this mouth, don't say it, don't say it......"
Looking at the old man who was staggering away, Ling Zhen sighed, everything in this world can be faked, but word of mouth is not good. It is quite ironic that the official family that symbolizes the mandate of heaven has a reputation that is not as good as that of a strong man who occupies the mountain and is the king somewhere three or five hundred miles away from his national capital.
"Let's go, it's up to you, take the waterway!" Ling Zhen looked at Jiao Ting and smiled bitterly, and strode forward after speaking. Jiao Ting smiled, raised his hand, and everyone hurriedly followed, and they couldn't help but smile secretly on their faces, this official from Tokyo was convinced.
Everyone walked five miles forward, passing by a hotel, Jiao Ting looked at the wine flag, and shouted: "Everyone is tired of walking, go in and have a glass of wine!" ”
Whenever there was money to eat and live along the way, it was the old Jiao next to him who rushed to come, Ling Zhen was already embarrassed, and immediately stood up and said: "Everyone likes to eat at noon, although I don't have any money, but I can still afford a meal!" ”
Everyone smiled, and they were not polite, they arched their hands towards Ling Zhen, and went into the store first, Ling Zhen shook his head and followed in, at this time, a few little two turned out of the back of the house, and hung a sign outside the door that was full, and they stayed outside.
As soon as Ling Zhen entered the hotel lobby, he saw Lao Jiao and them talking to Xiao Er, and he didn't interject, just looked around at the hotel, and suddenly his eyes swept to the table, like a ghost, and he couldn't pull it back.
"Let's go, Deputy Envoy Ling, let's sit upstairs!" Jiao Ting turned around and shouted.
"Just come, just come, you go first, I'll go out of Gong!" Ling Zhen waved his hand at Jiao Ting, but Jiao Ting didn't urge him when he saw this, and went upstairs by himself.
Ling Zhen saw Jiao Ting go up, walked to the left of a table, stared at the person on the table, and thought to himself, "Isn't this person dead?" How can you still sit here and eat?! ”
The middle-aged man who had been watched by Ling Zhen for a long time put it down, suddenly put down the wine glass in his hand, and smiled at the people at the same table with a smile: "Lin Jiaotou, the famous thunderstorm in Tokyo has used our table as a toilet!" ”
Ling Zhen was taken aback when he heard this, looked at Xu Ning's fellow tablemates, and said after a while: "Is it really Lin Chong, the head of the 800,000 sect in Tokyo, and Teacher Xu of the Imperial Golden Gun Class?" ”
Both of them smiled, got up and invited Ling Zhen to take a seat, and said, "Since you are an old man in Tokyo, why don't you sit down?" ”
Seeing them in this village hotel outside Jeju City, he was not surprised to see him, he was calm and relaxed, and Ling Zhen was not an innocent person. At this time, he had already guessed something in his heart, sighed, and said: "Lin Jiaotou and Teacher Xu were bright and upright heroes in Tokyo back then, and when it comes to big names, who in the world doesn't admire them?" Ling can meet here, it is fate, the two of them are invited, how dare they not obey! Having said that, Ling Zhen was still worried about the safety of the old soldier whose life was hanging by a thread, for fear that he would not be able to see him when he was late. But the situation in front of him made him involuntarily. At the moment, my heart is very entangled.
Seeing that Ling Zhen put on a high hat for the two of them as soon as he opened his mouth, Xu Ning smiled, glanced at Lin Chong, and said: "Deputy Envoy Ling, don't misunderstand, I just want to invite you to see someone, and after the meeting, I will never force you to stay!" ”
"I, a person who makes fireworks for the official family, can also enter the eyes of the leader of your cottage king?" Ling Zhen smiled bitterly. said: "Dare to be the New Year, do you want to add some atmosphere to the cottage?" ”
Lin Chong and Xu Ning laughed when they heard this, and only heard Xu Ning say: "In the past, in Tokyo, I heard the name of Deputy Envoy Ling. I don't want to see it today, it's so humorous! ”
"Where, where...... To tell the truth, the two brothers, I came to Jingdong this time to meet a ......" Ling Zhen made his intention slightly abridged. It is not explicitly said that it is to ask for a gunpowder recipe for opening the mountain and cracking stones, but only emphasizes the urgency of time.
"Deputy Envoy Ling don't be nervous, just ask you to go up the mountain for a while. I, Lin Chong, hereby guarantee that I will never delay you from seeing that old soldier! Lin Chong smiled and said something to comfort him.
"The people of Jiaotou Lin and Teacher Xu, the younger brother can still be trusted! I'm going to go and I'm going to go, but I still have a few friends who have come with me, and I'll go and talk to them, and let them wait here!" Ling Zhen relieved himself and got up.
At this moment, a big man with a green mark on the face walked in outside the door, and when he heard Ling Zhen's words, he only heard him say: "Deputy Envoy Ling, why don't you invite those people to go with you?" ”
When Ling Zhen heard this, he looked at the piece of green record on the face of this man for a long time, sighed, and said: "How can Ling Mou, how can he call Lin Jiaotou, Teacher Xu, and Yang Zhizhi to go down the mountain, the owner of Guizhai really looks down on his little brother!" ”
Thinking that these three people were quite famous figures in Tokyo back then, Wang Lun actually sent the three of them down to "invite" him at this time, no matter what his intentions were in the end, it is undeniable that this strongman still put a lot of effort into it. After all, if you want to ask forcibly, any one of these three people will not be an opponent. Thinking about this section, Ling Zhen couldn't help but feel a little curious about this person he had never met.
"The owner of the village is sincere, and Deputy Ling will know when he goes up the mountain!" Yang Zhi was not surprised to see that he recognized himself, after all, his birthmark was too obvious.
Ling Zhen nodded, and was about to ask Lao Jiao for their opinion, but at this time, Jiao Ting was lying on the railing on the second floor and looking down, and when he saw this, he said: "I will send you all the way, you can't give up halfway!" ”
"Let's go, there is still an old man from Deputy Envoy Ling waiting in the cottage, don't make him wait for a long time!" At this time, Yang Zhi spoke.
Ling Zhen was stunned for a moment and asked, "Yang Zhizhi, who are you talking about?" ”
"You'll know when you meet!" Yang Zhi smiled, took Ling Zhen's burden, carried it on his back, and went out first. Lin Chong and Xu Ning were afraid that Ling Zhen would be restrained, so they stepped forward to accompany each other.
These three people are all officers of the forbidden army, and they have many common topics, speaking of Tokyo, Ling Zhen's mood is much calmer, and he asked Xu Ning: "I know all the old things about Lin Jiaotou and Yang Zhizhi. It's just that Teacher Xu was framed by Wang Duwei and Gao Yu at the beginning, and he was killed in Mengzhou, how could he ...... at this time"
Xu Ning shook his head, and told how he had gone to Liangshan in the first place, Ling Zhen was embarrassed when he heard it, and sighed: "For a piece of treasure armor, a national general is almost dying, and this is only done by Gao Taiwei!" ”
However, Ling Zhen immediately perked up and said to Xu Ning: "However, Wang Duwei can't get good at harming people, and in the end, he is still busy!" Before the younger brother left Beijing, he heard that he forcibly seized the treasure armor and sword of Teacher Xu and Yang Zhi's envoy, and all of them were stolen overnight, and I don't know who did it! ”
Xu Ning saw that he said, "Ahhhhh It's stolen at this time, but where to find it? (To be continued......)
