Chapter Seventy-Three: Planning

After saying goodbye to his junior sister and others, Feng Mofeng limped towards the county seat with his belongings on his back. Along the way, it is "more than a stranger, people are depressed", Feng Mofeng felt sad in his heart, only to feel that he was in troubled times, his body was like duckweed, he was full of blood, but he was tricked by fate to serve the Mongolian Tartars, and sighed all the way. Suddenly, I heard someone in the mountains chanting:

"The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return. Explore the tiger's den and enter the Jiao Palace, look up to the sky and exhale into a white rainbow. ”

Feng Mofeng felt empathy and asked, "Who is the master?" In a moment, a burly young man walked out of the mountains and forests on the side, it was Liu Weifeng, looking at him with a smile, and he said in surprise: "Shaoxia, is it you?" ……”

"Can Feng Daxia talk about it?" Liu Weifeng said that Feng Mofeng was both curious and fond of him, and it didn't matter if his heart was delayed for half an hour. So he walked to the side of the road where Liu Weifeng was, put down his bag "Duang", and saluted him: "Dare to ask the young man's surname?" ”

Liu Weifeng hurriedly returned the salute and said, "Bow to Liu Weifeng." After motioning for Feng Mofeng to sit on the hay, he said, "Feng Daxia is really ready to join Mongolia?" ”

Feng Mofeng said: "Young Xia Hugh wants to call me a hero, I am just a useless blacksmith, one can't be loyal to the country, and the other can't do chivalrous righteousness, how can I receive this title?" It turns out that the young man already knows about me, and I am under the jurisdiction of the Mongolian people, and I can't fight, so I can only obey orders, but I will not give up, and when I build weapons, I will be shoddy, and it is worth waiting for the opportunity to kill one or two Tartar centurions, thousands, or princely generals. ”

"It's not the best option." Liu Weifeng shook his head and said, "That will only be sacrificed in vain." Perhaps there is a better way to be loyal to the country. ”

"Oh? What is Liu Shaoxia's opinion? Feng Mofeng asked curiously.

"Now Mongolia is prosperous, and everywhere I go, the officials and troops of the Great Song Dynasty are invincible, which is really chilling. I am afraid that there is only the last barrier of Xiangyang, and the war is raging, and there will be heroes from all over the world and people with lofty ideals from all over the world who will devote themselves to Xiangyang City to help defend the city. Why is there no place for the predecessors to be useless? Even if you don't charge into battle, you can still build weapons for my Great Song, right? Liu Weifeng's words made Feng Mofeng's blood boil, but he was worried, and said: "The Mongolian Tartars are now recruiting blacksmiths everywhere, how can I pass the gate of the county seat?" ”

Liu Weifeng said in his heart: "The ancients were sometimes really stubborn, and they didn't know how to be flexible. Then he said: "You have a hammer, bellows and other things, and you will know that you are a blacksmith at a glance!" Why don't you bring anything but a cane and a package, travel lightly, and create a career with me, how about it? ”

Feng Mofeng is a person with a gentle personality and is not good at words, he only feels full of curiosity, but he doesn't know how to ask, so he only says: "Who is Liu Shaoxia?" ”

Liu Weifeng replied: "I am a disciple of Hong Qigong's predecessor, and I am a family with Peach Blossom Island, I and your junior sister Cheng Ying have been married, and the Lord of Huangdao has agreed to our marriage contract, which is also the reason why I don't call you senior." Feng Mofeng shook Liu Weifeng's hand in surprise and said, "I see! My master and sister really didn't misunderstand people, you are not only a talent, strong martial arts, but also patriotic pride, I have heard that Hong seniors have led the beggars in the north to resist Jin for many years, and today there are successors. Good! Good brothers! In the future, I will look forward to your horse, and I will follow what you ask me to do. ”

Liu Weifeng said: "Without further ado, senior brother hurry up and get on the horse, and we will ride together, so that those officials will not come back to trouble you, and it will be really difficult to get away at that time." ”

Feng Mofeng no longer shirked, picked up the iron crutch, carried the burden, although he did not bring any iron tools, but he felt that the burden on his shoulders was much heavier, and he tragically got on Liu Weifeng's horse. Liu Weifeng was about to get on the horse, when he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and he recognized that it was three horses, Xindao or ordinary hurrying.

The two of them got on the horse and walked forward for a while, and looked at the three horsemen from a distance, and found that it was a Han and two Mongolian soldiers walking together, Feng Mofeng, who was sitting behind Liu Weifeng, leaned over and saw it, and his heart was terrified, and he said in a low voice: "Go quickly, don't let them find me." Liu Weifeng said with a smile: "They saw that the two of us were riding a horse together, and they came to send the horse." Blacksmith Feng didn't know that he was joking, and poked his head out in surprise to look again, but was seen by the Han people who had already approached, it was the chief who went to find Feng Mofeng's interpreter or ground security yesterday, and he immediately shouted: "Blacksmith Feng! I'm looking for you, why are you on your way? Come with us! Be careful when you miss the hour! ”

Liu Weifeng scolded: "Fuck your uncle! You lackey! Your head has just moved, your whole family's head has moved! Feng Mofeng pulled Liu Weifeng's clothes and signaled him not to make trouble here, but found that it was too late, the local security was furious, and said a few words in Mongolian, and the two Mongolian soldiers immediately drew their knives and swung at Liu Weifeng viciously, before they got close, Liu Weifeng had jumped up from the horse, and with a move "Shenlong swinging tail", the palm wind had already caught up, and the two of them fell off the horse in response.

The land protector has always been a tiger, and he is used to being a powerful man, where have he ever seen such a powerful opponent? was so frightened that he almost fell off his horse, and just as he stabilized and was about to turn around and run away, Liu Weifeng had already jumped over and kicked him off and snatched his horse. The landlord grabbed the ground with his head, broke his head and bled out, and screamed.

Liu Weifeng said: "You dog traitor, you will have dirty hands when you kill you." Get on the horse and get out of here! Dibao struggled to get up, and it took half a day to get on the horse, and he was about to go to the direction of the county seat, Liu Weifeng shouted: "It's not this way, it's that side!" Hurry up and get away, I'll wait here, if I see it, I will kill you. "Deliberately frightened Di Bao, afraid that he would return to find the Mongols, and the army would be dispatched and it would be difficult to deal with. The landlord obediently ran in the opposite direction, and did not dare to turn his head back. Liu Weifeng dismounted and carried the two half-dead Mongolian soldiers onto another horse, led them to a small fork in the road, and slapped the horse's buttocks hard, and the Mongolian war horse galloped wildly on the path in pain.

Liu Weifeng and Feng Mofeng rode separately, and soon arrived at the county seat and went out through the city gate smoothly.

Liu Weifeng has a plan, if he wants to achieve a career, no matter how strong his personal martial arts are, his strength is limited after all, and he must have a strong organization.

The Iron Palm Gang used to be the largest gang in the south of the Yangtze River, located in the Iron Palm Peak south of Jingxiang, thinking that the two gang leaders Shangguan Jiannan and Qiu Qianren were good at Iron Palm and light skills, making the Iron Palm Gang powerful martial arts. But when the second Huashan sword debate, the gang leader Tiezhang floated on the water and converted to Buddhism, worshipping the master of a lamp, and the Iron Palm Gang was scattered, so that it never rose again in "Condor Jianghu".

Liu Weifeng remembered that after the plot of the novel developed, Qiu Qianqi, who had been trapped underground for more than ten years, asked Qiu Qianqi: "Second brother, I heard that Huang Rong is the leader of the beggar gang, let's not dare to offend her." Qiu Qianren said: "Iron Palm Gang? It's been a long time since the gang dispersed, what else is there for the Iron Palm Gang? ”

He decided to go to Iron Palm Peak to have a look.

The two of them traveled for two days, and after many inquiries, they finally saw the famous Iron Palm Peak, which looked like a human hand from a distance. At the foot of the mountain, the villagers cultivate the fields and weave, the folk customs are simple, and the Iron Palm Peak has also become a place for cattle to play, where is there still a trace of gangs? Liu Weifeng felt quite disappointed, and even regretted coming a little.

Continue to go up the mountain, you can see the old site of the Iron Palm Gang, abandoned for more than ten years, has become an empty shell, but the building is built along the mountain, winding and circuitous, majestic, Liu Weifeng thinks about the glory of the era of "Shooting the Condor", and can't help but think of the ancients.

Feng Mofeng asked, "Brother Liu, what are we doing all the way to this barren mountain?" The Mongols raised troops in the north, but this place is far south. ”

Liu Weifeng said: "Senior Brother Feng, I won't tell you, I think the strength of the two of us is meager, and it really doesn't play a big role in the whole situation, I want to use the old power of the Iron Palm Gang to recruit some people from the rivers and lakes to join the gang, alas, I didn't expect the Iron Palm Gang, which was prominent in the past, to fall into such a field, and there was no one in it." What can you do? ”

Feng Mofeng suddenly realized, but he had no idea for a while. The two of them first went to the villages at the foot of the mountain to find out where so many old troops had gone after the disbandment of the Iron Palm Gang more than ten years ago. Even after asking a few villages, I couldn't find it. When asked about the fourth village, a middle-aged man was startled and asked, "Who are you?" What is the Iron Palm Gang doing? ”

Liu Weifeng and Feng Mofeng looked at each other for a moment, suddenly saw hope, and said, "Have you heard of it?" The Iron Palm Gang is about to be rebuilt, and a new gang leader will be elected in three days, and some of the old departments still don't know the news, just now someone in another village asked me to bring a message to the brothers in the gang in this village, but I have no clue. "In fact, I don't have a clue in other villages, and that's how they let out the news. The man was obviously very interested, and was about to ask something, but saw the two turn around and leave.

Their method worked, the man was a member of the Iron Palm Gang that year, he felt happy and strange after receiving the news, and immediately set off to inform the brothers of the year, and they notified each other, and the news of other villages also spread, word of mouth, one spread ten to hundred, three days later, the Iron Palm Gang was like an annual meeting, densely packed with many people, except for the deceased, old and those who left the country, the old department gathered more than 1,000 people, and what is even more rare is that they all coincidentally wore the gang uniforms of the year. Everyone greeted each other, remembered the old master, and discussed the matter of choosing a helper, and they all felt very strange at this time.

In the morning, Liu Weifeng and Feng Mofeng came up the mountain, and everyone cast strange eyes, as if hostile, and some simply asked, "Who are you?" Liu Weifeng said in his heart: "So many people, if they start to do it, they can only escape, these people have colluded with Qiu Qianren and Qiu Qianzhang brothers to do evil for a long time, I don't know if they can be domesticated, so they can be persuaded to focus on education, and they are moved by emotion and reason." If you can't do it, you don't do it, and you don't come to fight all the way. ”

He and Feng Mofeng walked to a slightly higher terrain, and in the curious eyes of everyone, Liu Weifeng spoke: "All the heroes of the Iron Palm Gang are invited!" Saying that, only a few people below hugged their fists in return, but most of them were indifferent and looked arrogant.

"The Iron Palm Gang has been shaking the rivers and lakes for decades, and from the gang leader down, all of them were heroes who stood up to the sky, how can they be scattered? Don't you feel sad and ashamed that you have been running and working in the gang for many years? One sentence caused the crowd to sigh and fluctuate. Liu Weifeng said again: "Today, everyone is here for a purpose, and they are thinking of the Iron Palm Gang. Why not let this gang rise again? ”
