Text Chapter 16 Encountering Bian Xiangchao's Feelings
Chao Gai and the others walked out of the woods, and found a group of people walking towards them, seeing that the number of people was about twenty or thirty people, ragged, and the guys in their hands were all wooden sticks and sticks, headed by a big man with a nine-foot long figure, three teeth covering his mouth and beard, his face was square and his shoulders were broad, his eyebrows were vertical and his eyes were round, and the blades in his hands were the same as Mi Sheng's, all of them were a big axe, and their clothes were ragged, and they couldn't be broken anymore.
When they came closer, Chao Gai took a step forward, clenched his fists and said: "We are all past merchants, come here to rest for a while, if you disturb all the heroes, apologize here, I don't know what you heroes have to do?"
"What is expensive to do or not, we came here to borrow some silver taels of grain like you." The man at the head said with a big axe in his hand.
"I also borrowed some silver taels, to put it bluntly, it is a robber who robbed the road, it sounds good, we don't know who you are, if you want to rob the road, you have to ask the big axe in my hand if you agree, it just so happens that you are also an axe, come and come, let's fight three hundred rounds." Without waiting for Chao Gai to speak, Mi Shengwei next to him opened his eyes, and the big axe in his hand was horizontal, and he said, looking at the posture, he was going to step forward and make a gesture.
"I ...... I really borrowed two pieces of silver, not robbery, and I won't do anything with you. The big man shook his head and said.
"People in the rivers and lakes, when the road is uneven, they draw swords to help, and they are all brothers in the four seas, since this good man has spoken, then it is easy to say, Chao Yi took out two hundred taels of silver, and wine and meat to give them." Chao Gai laughed and said to the big man, the second half of the sentence was said to Chao Yi next to him.
Chao Yi knew that his master regarded money as dung, and anyone who came to ask for help would help, and this kind of thing was not once or twice, and he had long been used to it, so he immediately took out two hundred taels of silver from the horse, and took out more than half of the cooked beef flatbread and wine, and handed them to the big man.
At this time, the big man was stunned, he didn't expect Chao Gai to be so generous and righteous, a person who met in Pingshui, he gave so many things without saying a word, and he couldn't react for a while.
When the big man came back to his senses, his eyes were red with emotion, and he couldn't hold back the tears, and he knelt to the ground like a jade pillar pushing the golden mountain with a plop, kowtowed vigorously, and said: "We met a good person today, and you are our benefactor." Then there was a strong kowtow, and the twenty or thirty people behind the big man also knelt down and kowtowed to thank him.
Chao Gai was startled, and then hurriedly helped the big man and the people behind him up one by one, and then said: "There are brothers in the four seas, all brothers are in difficulty, since I have met Chao Gai, there is no reason to stand idly by."
"What? Are you Chao Gai? Shandong Yuncheng County's Tota Heavenly King Chao Gai? Troublesome Chao Gai of Liaoguo Horse Farm? When the big man at the head heard this, he immediately screamed and asked.
"It's under the bottom, good things don't go out, evil things go thousands of miles, I didn't expect the matter of the racecourse to spread so quickly." Chao Gai nodded, not denying it.
"Oh, it turns out that we met the King of Tota Chao Gai, the living Bodhisattva, I have always heard that the King of Chao is righteous and thin, and the benevolence and righteousness are unparalleled, and I only know Bian Xiang today." The big man said with a sigh.
"People in the rivers and lakes, you don't have to take such trivial things to heart, just now this good man said that his name is Bian Xiang? But Bian Xiang in Hebei who hates the sky and the earth? Chao Gai asked.
"Brother Tianwang still knows me Bian Xiang?" Bian Xiang said with a frightened face, but he didn't think that the famous Tota Heavenly King Chao Gai also knew that he was a farmer.
"I have heard that it is said that the two arms, with the strength of a buffalo, make a big axe, skilled in martial arts, and it is really worthy of the name when I see it today." Chao Gai nodded and said.
Bian Xiang is also a character in the original work of Water Margin, but unfortunately he is not a good man in Liangshan, so his reputation is not obvious, but his martial arts ability is completely at the level of the five tiger generals of Liangshan, and even among the five tiger generals, he is also in the forefront.
After the heroes of Liangshan were recruited, they went west to conquer Tian Hu, and when the Hebei army was defeated and retreated, Tian Hu was at a loss. The civil and military officials are planning to reduce the gold people in the north. Bian Xiang stepped forward, resigned many officials, and insisted on resisting the Song army. After that, he personally led ten generals and 30,000 elite soldiers to meet the enemy. In front of the two armies, Shi Jin fought with the nine-pattern dragon Shi Jin for 30 rounds without winning or losing, "Xiao Li Guang" Hua Rong stepped forward to attack, and Bian Xiang fought against the two of them for more than 30 years without falling behind, and the fierce general at the end.
After stationed in Mianshan, and Hua Rong held on, was killed by the jade unicorn Lu Junyi led the army from Taiyuan, Bian Xiang was not able to attack the two armies, defeated and lost, and was captured by Lu Junyi in the chaos. Released into the camp of Song Jiang, seeing Song Jiang's spirit, he was grateful to surrender.
Later, when he followed the Liangshan army to conquer Wang Qing, the king of Chu in Huaixi, he repeatedly made military exploits and killed the Huaixi generals Gu Cen and Qian Fu. Finally, when the Huaixi Wang Qing was in front of the Longmen Pass in Xijing, he encountered the lonely fire ghost king Kou Kang, and the Song army was defeated by the demon fire, and was sprayed by Kou Kang in the defeat, burned and fell from his horse, and was killed by the Huaixi army.
Bian Xiang's most brilliant battle in the Water Margin is the battle of killing Huaixi's fierce general Yutai, the original book describes as follows: "In the western formation, Yutai was furious, danced two iron slips, and patted the horse to grab the mountain Shiqi." The two generals fought to the top of Shihe, and Bian Xiang saw that the mountain warriors were fighting but not Yutai, so he slapped his gun and slapped the horse to help fight. was shouted by Yutai, only one Jane knocked Shan Shiqi off the horse, and another Jane ended up dying, and patted the horse and danced the sword to greet him. How can Bian Xiang be even braver. When the horse's head arrived, he shouted loudly, and a shot stabbed him in the heart and died under the horse. "This battle is directly related to the demeanor of the public and the good.
"Brother doesn't live in Hebei, how did he get to this Shandong border? Still so embarrassed? Chao Gai looked Bian Xiang up and down, and saw that Bian Xiang was in rags, his face was dish, and he obviously couldn't eat well for a few days, so he couldn't help asking.
"Alas! Brother Tianwang doesn't know. Bian Xiang sighed when he heard this, and then said: "I was originally a farmer in Gaizhou, Hebei, we have a landlord named Huang Tian, who bullied us these tenants on weekdays, and did all kinds of evil, that day that Huang Tian was powerful in our village, bullying men and women, I really couldn't stand it and chopped that guy with an axe, caused a lawsuit, and escaped, these people are good brothers in my village, and they all have some martial arts, and they escaped with me, and they can't eat enough or wear warm clothes these days, so I saw someone in the woods and wanted to come over to ask for some food. I didn't expect to meet Brother Tianwang and all the heroes. ”
"Is there no one in charge of the government?" Yan Qing next to him heard and asked.
"This landlord and the government are all in trouble, where do they care about our life or death, we have all gone to the government to sue, but we have all been beaten out." Bian Xiangyou sighed and said.
"This dog official mansion, this chaotic world, traitors are in charge, and heroes are difficult to live." Chao Gai sighed and said with a sigh.
Before the crossing, although Chao Gai is also living in the war all the year round, but seeing the people of the country living and working in peace and contentment, sometimes very happy, there is a saying that Ning is a peaceful dog and not a troubled world, today I heard Bian Xiang's experience to deeply understand the meaning of this sentence, and also strengthened Chao Gai's idea of doing things for the sky.
