Chapter 14 Mountain Crossing
After listening to Zhu Fu's concerns about Li Yun's lack of eating wine and meat, Ximen Qing Daxiao said: "This Li Dutou is really incorruptible, and he simply doesn't eat wine and meat." Then arrange some vegetables and vegetables to be drugged, so that his blue-eyed tiger will be unable to fly! ”
Zhu Fu listened to the agreement, and said: "Brother Siquan, these fire families under the younger brother are also young and strong stick boys, and there is no family tiredness, they usually learn martial arts with the younger brother, the most intimate, today the younger brother will take them to Liangshan for a walk, can the elder brother be willing to fulfill?" ”
Ximenqing nodded and said, "Eight hundred miles of Liangshanpo, are you afraid that a few more of them will not be able to eat?" What's more, they knew that Brother Zhu Fu had killed corrupt officials, but they hid it and did not report it, and they were also people who valued love and justice. Such heroes are the most respected by my Ximenqing, if they want to go to Liangshan, I will be the first to raise my hand to welcome! ”
Zhu Fu was overjoyed, so he went down to make arrangements. Zhu Gui said: "Brother Siquan, Aunt Li's side ......."
Ximen Qing said: "The old man is old and can't stand the bumps of the hurry, so I didn't dare to ask her to go with her brother and daughter-in-law; What's more, if the old man can't see his son halfway, thinking that we have bad intentions and make an awkward fuss, how should it end? Therefore, if you want to be perfect, you have to be so and so ......"
Zhu Gui listened, nodded yes, and went out with Yang Lin to prepare.
Ximen Qing looked out the window, the sun was already shining, presumably the blue-eyed tiger Li Yun had already arrived at Cao Taigong Village in Yiling Village, right? He sighed softly in his heart, those four tigers with national first-class protection, in the end, were still beaten by Li Kui, it seems that he met the reckless Li Kui who specializes in fighting Li ghosts, whether it is a tiger or an old rot, they can only be killed by the neck, which can be regarded as a clear reason, and the retribution is not happy.
The fire family in the Zhufu Hotel is all skilled in handling dishes, and according to Ximenqing's instructions, after a busy time, they are all in order. Cooked meat, good wine, fruits, vegetables and vegetables, after adding materials, are neatly arranged, packed in the burden fruit box, everyone shoulders and hands, all go to the remote secluded mountain intersection outside Yishui County to sit and wait.
Until the middle of the day, when only the sound of the victory gong was heard in the distance, about thirty or fifty people came clamoring, and one of them rode a long-haired thin horse with no strength and walked in the front. This lean horse is an official horse, and the horse's teeth have long since increased to the point that they can no longer be increased, and he has entered the twilight of his twilight years, and he should have retired long ago. It's a pity that the money to buy a new horse in the county has been embezzled by the parents and officials, and this old horse has no choice but to be the old man of the Fufang, and he has to be ambitious or not.
Sitting on horseback was a sturdy man, in his thirties, wearing a white-washed official uniform, with a pair of blue eyes looking forward to it, flashing light, not angry and self-imposing, which is the best comment on "his body is upright, and he does not obey orders".
Seeing it from afar, Zhu Fu said to Ximen Qing: "Brother Siquan, the person on the horse is the younger brother's master, the blue-eyed tiger Li Yun." ”
Ximenqing nodded and praised: "What a hero!" ”
When he looked behind Li Yun again, he was a bunch of seven long and eight short men, three villages and four people. In addition to the old soldiers who came to relieve Li Kui, the rest were the hunters on Cao Taigong's village, the wives of Li Gui, and Cao Taigong himself, all of whom had to go to Yishui County to testify - of course, they also had to receive the 3,000 yuan bonus money.
Among the soldiers, the black whirlwind Li Kui was stripped naked, and he was beaten step by step. This Li Tie cow has rough skin and thick meat, and he has been beaten with dozens of sticks, but the people who beat him have changed several times, and all of them have sour hands.
One of the soldiers scolded and scolded: "Damn! This guy has such a hard skin! If we weren't allowed to use big means, which round would you get to make this single? ”
Cao Dahu smiled beside him: "If it weren't for such a talented bachelor, where would he have the ability to stir up Jiangzhou?" The more powerful this black thief is, the more it can show that we have worked hard to capture him, and the credit for him is greater! ”
When the people heard this, they shouted yes in a disorderly manner. was just smug, but saw a group of people coming out of the mountain intersection in front of him, all smiling. The man at the head of the group even hugged his fists and saluted early, and said loudly: "Master and happy, the little brother is here to relay." I heard that the master took the black whirlwind Li Kui, and there was a harm for our local government, so the younger brother prepared some wine and meat, one to celebrate the master's success, and the other to reward the brothers who contributed! ”
This group of men and women came all the way, walking in a hurry, there was already some hunger and thirst in their stomachs, and when they heard Zhu Fu's words, they were all overjoyed, and they looked at Li Yun on horseback, hoping that he would open his mouth, and everyone rushed up to eat.
Li Yun had already dismounted at this time, jumped forward, looked at the wine, flesh and fruits beside the road, couldn't help frowning, and said angrily: "Brother Xian, where is the need to be so far between you and me?" How much money did all this wine and meat cost? You are the breadwinner, and you must not be as good as my willow tree peeling off the bark - a bare pole! ”
Zhu Fu said: "It's just a cousin's filial piety, what is it worth?" Looking behind Li Yun, he lowered his voice and said: "The master is on an errand in the county yamen, and he has always been unsatisfactory, but today he captured the black whirlwind alive and made a great contribution, see which one dares to underestimate the master?" ”
Li Yun shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's just because of people!" When I went, this black whirlwind Li Kui had already been tied up like a big dumpling, where would it be my turn to make a move? This Li Kui, I heard that he is also our fellow villager, last night on the Yiling Mountains, he killed the four tigers, even if he is caught now, his courage is still unyielding, he is really a good man! ”
Zhu Fu poured wine and laughed in a low voice: "Since he is a good man, the master will be the master and let him go!" ”
Li Yun was startled, and hurriedly shook his hand and said, "How can this be made?" If it's just an ordinary homicide, just Xiangshang Si can excuse him by handing over a medical complaint and then making up a death certificate. But this guy didn't know how many people he had killed in Jiangzhou City, and he was the most important criminal in the court. If he is released, I don't know how many people will be involved! ”
Zhu Fu smiled: "The apprentice is just joking. Regardless of whether he was caught by the master or not, after all, the master sent him all the way back, and he couldn't get rid of the master's work in the end! Come on, come on! The master invited the wine. ”
Li Yun shook his head and said, "Brother Xian, how can I, Li Yun, be the kind of person who takes the risk of merit and asks for rewards?" Whoever caught this black whirlwind is whoever caught it, and it has nothing to do with me! ”
Zhu Fu sighed: "The master is also a little stunned! Claiming the merits of subordinates, where is there no officialdom in the world? Not on which day? The master is clean and self-conscious, but he still has to suffer the white eyes of those villains! Alas! Don't talk about it, the master invites wine! ”
Li Yun was very enthusiastic, although he took the wine bowl, he hesitated and said: "Brother Xian, you also know me, I never drink alcohol every day......
Zhu Fu smiled and raised his chin behind Li Yun: "The master just needs to make a look." If you don't set an example first, where do these people under you dare to eat and drink? ”
Li Yun looked back, and sure enough, the soldiers under him looked at the wine and meat burden with greedy eyes, and they couldn't wait to gnaw on the flat burden when they saw it. Li Yun smiled dumbly, then raised the bowl and touched his lips slightly, then returned it to Zhu Fu, and then smiled at the soldiers: "Everyone feel free!" Remember that after returning to the county and receiving the reward from the county magistrate, I have to go to my brother's shop outside the west gate to do my brother's business! ”
The soldiers roared yes, and then rushed up, and under the service of several fire families, they ate and drank.
Zhu Fu took a plate of fruits and vegetables, and said to Li Yun: "Although the master doesn't drink, he is also tired of walking, so it's good to eat some pads to pad his belly." This time, Li Yun no longer shirked, and took it and used some.
On this side, Zhu Fu greeted Li Yun, Zhu Gui, Yang Lin and a few Huo family to greet the soldiers, Ximen Qing saw that Cao Taigong and his gang did not come together to eat and drink, and secretly thought in his heart: "Hehe! Yes! These people can only be counted as ordinary people, but they dare not compete with these people who eat public food in a trough - but if they don't eat, they will do it later, but it will not cost me much effort? ”
Thinking of this, he picked up a food box and walked over to Cao Taigong.
Li Kui was bare-eyed, and he had already seen the two brothers Zhu Gui and Zhu Fu, and knew that it was a trick, and when he saw Ximen Qing coming over, he deliberately said, "You also invite me to eat some...... You? You! but thou art not Simon......"
Ximenqing used ginger juice to dye his hands, feet and face yellow, covering up his son's face, when he was mixed in the fire family team before, where did Li Kui recognize it? When I got closer, I realized that the person in front of me was actually Ximen Qing, the son of Sanqi! The surprise of the black whirlwind is not trivial, and he said in his heart that the Ximen officials didn't go to Erlong Mountain to see their brothers? How did you get here? He is a straightforward and reckless man, who has no door on his mouth, and he is about to open his mouth to reveal the secret of heaven at the moment.
As soon as Li Kui's voice changed, Ximenqing knew that this guy would definitely not be able to spit out ivory. At that moment, he flew up and kicked Li Kui's thigh, kicking Li Kui "ouch" and swallowing the second half of the words back.
Ximen Qingji pointed at Li Kui and shouted, "You black guy! Since you know that it is someone from the Zhujia Hotel outside the West Gate, you still dare to eat in the mouth of the smiling tiger? I'm not afraid to slap your tongue when the wind is strong! Shut your beak for me! When you dare to stare at it, see if the master doesn't kill you! ”
Li Kui realized at this time, so he lowered his head and did not say anything. The soldiers who were eating and drinking looked amusement and laughed.
Ximen Qing picked up the food box, came to Mrs. Cao's public, bowed and said: "Everyone walks hard, there are some drinks and food here, everyone will use some!" ”
That Cao Taigong is an idle official who is short of people, and he is a corrupt official who is indiscriminate in the township and colludes with Yishui. Seeing that the wine in the opened food box is not mellow and the meat is not fine, where does Mrs. Cao see these rough food? Then he waved his hand and said: "I have already used it in my own village, and let others eat it!" ”
Although Ghost Li's wife wanted to eat, she was eye-to-eye with Cao Dahu, lest she eat this coarse food and lose her identity, so she also swallowed her saliva and said: "The slave family doesn't eat this kind of pickled food!" ”
Ximenqing sneered in his heart: "You two, but you are killing yourself!" "This is exactly what it is:
Since ancient times, he has just lost his fist and smiled, and he has always been righteous and evil. But I don't know what will happen next, and listen to the next breakdown.
