On the eighth day of April, it is the day of the "White Tiger Mountain" temple fair in Haizhou Mansion.

This temple fair is not an ordinary temple fair, its fame is very large, and the scale is even larger. The official duration of the meeting is exactly five days. Moreover, three days before the official meeting, the market was crowded with people, and it was difficult for cars and horses to travel; Those steamed bun shops, pancake shops, steamed bun shops, and baked cake shops are all open in a steaming atmosphere.

At this moment, not only the inns are full, but even the various sheds in the house and the various small houses and melon watching huts in the villages outside the city are also full of people. These people who came in advance were hundreds of miles away and thousands of miles away. Among these people, they come from the north and south of the great river, on both sides of the Yellow River, from all directions, all over the country. The accents are also southern and northern, varied.

Lianyungang Haizhou Baihushan temple fair is so prosperous. It is because this is the hometown of Sun Wukong in "Journey to the West" and the holy place where Confucius and Qin Shi Huang often come to play, and the name of the temple is named after the White Tiger Mountain on the edge of the city.

Nowadays, it is the most fun place after the beginning of spring, and it is also a paradise for people to do business. In this temple fair, there are people from the mainland who come to see the sea and catch the meeting by the way, there are people who go to Sun Wukong's hometown to see the monkey Sun by the way, and there are those who learn from the Confucian saint and Qin Shi Huang who climbed the mountain and looked at the sea and catch the meeting by the way, of course, the people who really do business are also the majority.

On the big square in front of the Shuyang Gate, use sticks, boards, and mats to build a theater shed. On the stage, the gongs and drums are noisy, "Monkey King Three Fights the White Bone Spirit" and "Zhongba Troubled Sea" and other dramas are singing happily, under the stage, you hug me and crowd the audience, the audience is a large piece of the inner three floors and the outer three floors, which is very lively.

It's much more regular on the street than outside. Shops large and small, all freshly painted. In addition to the fixed façade, there are a large number of large and small stalls, what sells shrimp, salted fish, jujubes, shrimp, all kinds of delicacies and seafood, densely packed with a large area. Judging from the lively scene inside and outside the meeting, it really looks like a "prosperous era of balances".

At the entrance of the drum tower, on the edge of the raised alley, there was a young man carrying two large wooden buckets selling salt brine. In front of him, there was a large queue of people buying salt and brine.

An old man dressed in tattered clothes came to him with a big bowl: "Little boss, how much does it cost to help me load a bowl?" ”

The salt brine seller looked at the bowl, and then at the old man: "You serve the bowl, wait until I fill it for you!" ”

After a while, a young master wearing gold and silver came to the stall and took a large basin from the dog's leg: "Little guy, fill it up for Lao Tzu quickly!" ”

The salt brine seller glanced at this broad young man, and slowly filled it up, and it was full in a few moments. Then he said to Kuo Shao: "Two hanging nine", Kuo Shao is too expensive, and his mouth is not dry. The brine seller poured the brine back into the big wooden barrel with a clatter, and threw the basin over.

Kuo Shao was pushed for a moment, and he was in a hurry: "Little nephew, I have money, fill the pot for me again!" ”

The salt brine seller sneered: "If you have the money to buy it elsewhere, we don't have time to talk to you too much!" "It is rare to see a thick waist and a round muscular body that sells salt brine, not a good stubble, so he had to say a big word and slip away.

Then, an old lady begging for food came over with a broken water scoop: "Little boss! How much does it cost to put on this half scoop? ”

The seller of salt brine wiped his hands with a rag, took the water ladle, and filled it with salt brine. When it was full, he brought it to the beggar and said, "Auntie, let's go!" ”

The old lady took the water scoop and looked at it carefully, only to see that the salt and brine fragrant umami was fragrant, it was really authentic Ganyu goods, and said: "This product is really good - how much does it cost?" The little guy who sold the salt brine said, "No money! The old lady felt that she could not leave, so she had to say some words of thanks, looked at it carefully, and walked away with a ladle of salt brine.

This salt brine seller, is it Song Jiliu? Yes!

Now, Song Jiliu, a poor boy who left his parents, is about to grow up.

Today, Jiliu took the opportunity of Uncle Tian to see a doctor, and for the first time, he rushed to sell salt brine alone. Aunt Li got up early for him to catch up with the meeting, and got up early to steam a few steamed buns with coarse wheat noodles and corn. Jiliu ate two steamed buns with salty old cabbage and drank a big bowl of boiled water. I was afraid that it would cost money to eat outside, so I brought three moldy pancakes and a piece of salted cabbage, and picked up the salt brine burden and went on the road.

Aunt Li knows that Uncle Tian's bad habit of "causing trouble and not being afraid of big trouble" has now been infected to Song Jiliu.

Therefore, when Jiliu Lin went out, she was a thousand admonitions, and Wan instructed: "Jiliu, although I am not your own mother, I can treat you as my own son!" Good boy, there is no place for us poor people to talk in this world now, and it is the first time for you to go out to do business by yourself, don't make trouble! Aunt Li chased out Zhuangzi with a very worried mood: "Jiliu! Everything has to be the word 'forbearance', and if you can't bear it, something big will happen, and you have to hide and walk when you encounter something......"

His words happened to be heard by Xu Yunduo from Beizhuang, Xu Yunduo came over and laughed and said, "My master, why are you so worried?" ”

Aunt Li said with a smile: "There is no one in the world who is not worried about his son, and if he can't tell him for a while, he may get into trouble and suffer hardship!" After she finished speaking, she looked at Jiliu's distant figure and said to herself with a smile: "It's only been a few days, and I can use it as an adult!" ”

Song Jiliu carried two large barrels of salt brine and walked quickly, with a rhythmic rustling sound under his feet, and the flat shoulder on his shoulders sang a beautiful song rhythmically: "Squeak, squeak, squeak......"

When Song Jiliu came to the temple fair in the moving "singing" of the flat dan, all the stalls in the venue were occupied. When he saw that there was nowhere to put his two buckets, he said to a salted fish seller, "Boss, help!" ”

Then he said to a kelp seller on the right, "Uncle, how is the business?" I'm here, I'm sorry to bother you when you're old! The salted fish seller and the kelp seller moved to both sides, making a small space for Jiliu to put down two buckets.

Just as Jiliu was giving a big girl brine, suddenly the street was crowded and crowded, and I saw a foreign bicycle riding from the south. There were also a few heel dogs wearing torn top hats, carrying a big girl, and dragging them behind the car. Behind the girl, four or five meters away, there was an old man who was crying and running.

Jiliu took a closer look, and some faces were familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had met for a while. Now, with his head covered in dirt, the old man chased after him, crying, scolding, and shouting, "You bastards! Call the donkey to! The bad seed that thunders five times in the sky! Why are you robbing other people's daughters? ”

At this time, people surrounded them angrily, talked about it, and scolded it.

Song Jiliu heard the girl's miserable cry, it was really like a thousand arrows piercing his heart, and he was very distressed. The old man's helpless cry for help made him angry, and his eyes were spewing fire. He said anxiously in his heart: "It's a pity that I didn't bring the pistol that captured Wu Dalang!" At this moment, he turned his face to see the small bag containing pancakes and throwing knives, and said to himself, "Okay, let's use them first, and let them open the foreign meat!" ”

Then, Jiliu lifted the small bag, took out the flying knife casually, and was about to throw it out. At this moment, Aunt Li's bitter words sounded on the side again, and she felt embarrassed again. Just as he hesitated, the tragic scene of human traffickers robbing him suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

At the same time, Uncle Tian's verbal words also sounded in his ears: "Not for fame or profit, saving people from fire and water is really a good man!" This made him hate the bad guys even more, and he was determined to "fix, fix" the bad guys!

Jiliu ignored the kindness of the big guy, dodged into the crowd, and ran straight towards the "bully". He's not a kid anymore, and he knows the consequences of doing so. His understanding is: don't go to the mass graves to play if you are afraid of wolves and ghosts, and don't be afraid to kill if you want to eat meat; If you don't save you, what's the point of being alive? As long as I can eliminate evil and promote good, it is worth it for me Song Jiliu to take this life!

Ji Liu thought as he walked, and actually ran into the big villain. This is really a narrow road, he pinched his waist with both hands, and asked angrily: "What are you robbing other people's big girls?" ”

The big "wicked man" with sores on his head and pus under his feet, glanced at the big child who stopped the car with a dog's eye, so he didn't pay attention to it, and wanted to use this occasion to show a big face. Therefore, when the dogs were about to step forward and hold down Jiliu, he waved his hand to stop, and then he arrogantly provoked Jiliu and said, "Good boy, do you want to take care of this idle matter?" ”

"Uncle, I'm in charge!"

"Good! I, Qiao Er, have always been a bright person who doesn't do dark things, and I robbed her because of her good looks, and I want her to be my little wife. ”

The onlookers all glared angrily, eager to peel this big villain alive.

"If you play a scoundrel again, you brute will be destroyed!"

"What a little bastard who doesn't know whether to live or die! You're playing a flashlight in the toilet - looking for death ()! ”

When the big dog barks, the little dog barks. All the dogs pounced forward with fierce eyes. But before they came closer, Jiliu pulled onions on dry land and flew up, and with a wave of his right hand in mid-air, a flying knife stabbed Qiao Er's right thigh. I only heard my mother's howl, and the dignified "Second Master Qiao" got out of the car by eating.

A vicious fight began.

The onlookers, some were happy that Song Jiliu was doing this, and some were afraid that Jiliu would not be able to beat the villain, so they also picked up the guy and joined the battle. Now Song Jiliu's kung fu is no longer a two-hit, with the help of some people who are not convinced, he clenched his fists and beat him hard, and after a while, he beat all the heeled dogs down.

Those bastards have all become the remnants of Xiao Jiliu's defeated soldiers. Some of them received an uppercut on their heads, howling desperately, and scurrying with their heads in their hands; Some received a straight punch, knocked out their front teeth, and ran as fast as they could while covering their bleeding mouths with their hands; Some were swept by Jiliu's legs, his nose was broken, and the blood kept flowing, and he didn't care about anything, just limped and ran for his life.

At this time, their lawlessness is gone, showing the ugliness of the Reservoir Dogs. These rats run faster than rabbits in the streets, driving chickens and ducks and dust; In the crowd of people rushing to the meeting and watching the excitement, the laughter and ridicule were higher and higher.

"This dog's day should have been harvested like this!"

"This means that he hasn't suffered a good loss, and now he looks good!"

The big guy laughed at the big bad guy who grabbed people, and also gave great praise to Song Jiliu's behavior: "The one who sells salt brine is really good!" ”

"This is the real good guy and good man!"

Just as the father and daughter in distress had just squeezed in front of Jiliu, the people who rushed to the meeting surrounded them and encircled Song Jiliu in the middle.

An old lady sent a large handful of ripe peanuts to Jiliu's hands: "Good boy! This can be a big evil breath for our people! ”

A woman carrying a basket full of shrimp squeezed desperately into it. Most of the shrimp were squeezed, and she couldn't control it, so she still said loudly while squeezing: "Let one, let one!" Let me take a look at this young man! ”

At this moment, the beaten "Second Master Qiao" entangled some shrimp soldiers and crabs to retaliate. When the people saw the wolf pounce, they quickly dispersed. However, the father and daughter in distress who couldn't get close to Song Jiliu because there were too many people came up without changing their faces.

This father and daughter are none other than Wang Mai and her old father who helped Song Jiliu and Fu Zairong escape from the clutches of human traffickers. Now the father and daughter live a life of begging, living in a house far from the village where people have been hanged. Didn't Wang Mai ask the traffickers to take it away, how did she get here? This will be introduced later.

In fact, at this time, Wang Mai had already recognized the young man Song Jiliu, but Song Jiliu did not recognize Wang Mai. This is mainly because: first, Song Jiliu has been focusing on those bad guys, and he has no intention of paying attention to what the girl looks like. Now, he was staring at the bad things that were coming like wolves, when he saw the father and daughter who didn't know the severity of the matter, and thought to himself, "Alas! Why didn't they run away quickly? ”

"I am ......"

"You're a big-headed ghost! Come on! ”

As soon as Wang Mai opened his mouth, he was blocked back by Song Jiliu. But she still didn't give up, and said loudly: "I am ......"

"Little bastard! Hurry, hurry, run! ”

"Do you want ......"

Wang Mai had just finished speaking, but was interrupted by Song Jiliu again: "You don't have to worry about me!" Just these few caterpillars can't help me, please leave quickly and don't get in the way of me fighting the bad guys! When he saw that the father and daughter were still stunned, he pointed at the outlaw with his left hand and started a fire on his father and daughter, "Why don't you run away?" Give me a quick go! ”

The father and daughter of the Wang family looked at the tiger wolf who was about to come to them, and then looked at Song Jiliu, a young man with his head held high and clenched his fists, admiration was immediately born, and his eyes were full of tears. They hesitated, but they turned their hearts on it and fled. As soon as they left, Song Jiliu was relieved, and said happily in his heart: "Since I am in charge of this idle matter, I will take care of it to the end today, and kill him personally!" ”
