After five days, Lou Zijin and Ye Pei also recovered. Hu Yuanwai came to greet him every day, and made new clothes for the two of them, and entertained them with good wine and food, but he didn't say a word about sending the two of them away. Ye Pei and Lou Zijin discussed, although Hu Yuanwai was enthusiastic, he had to rush to the senior brother's Zhenyuan Dart Bureau as soon as possible, and he had to take the initiative to ask for the matter of leaving.

On this sunny day, Lou Zijin said to Hu Yuanwai: "You see that we have been bothering us for a few days, and we are really embarrassed to live again." Our horses were lost when they were entangled in the bear, can you lend us a few dozen taels of coils, we have to go to Bianliang to find the senior brother to work, and when we arrive in Bianliang City, we will send someone back to repay the money. ”

Hu Yuanwai said politely: "What did Lou Yishi say, don't say dozens of taels of silver, even if there are more, I should honor you two." It's just that the newly made clothes haven't been picked up yet, how many more days can you wait? ”

Lou Zijin felt that it was difficult to be warm, so he had to say, "Okay, let's wait a few more days." ”

After a few days, the clothes were ready, but there was still no foreign minister from Hu Yuan.

Ye Pei said to Lou Zijin: "You said that this person is really strange, he is not distressed when we eat and drink for nothing here." But if they kill two bears, they don't have to keep us for a year and a half to thank them. ”

Lou Zijin was also suspicious: "I also think it's strange." ”

Ye Pei said: "They won't be trying to harm us, right?" Before leaving, Master instructed him to be careful in everything when he went out. ”

"But what are they trying to do to us? And there is no injustice or hatred! ”

"It's hard to say, you can't have the heart to harm people, and you can't have the heart to prevent people!"

"Then we're going to leave tomorrow anyway." Lou Zijin said with a deep groan.

Ye Pei said: "If he doesn't borrow us to entangle us, he will rob the rich and help the poor, I see that it is written in the book." Don't waste time here, fear of variables. ”

"Good!" Lou Zijin nodded.

The two discussed it properly, went back to the house to pack their bags, and didn't say anything all night.

Waiting until the next morning, Lou Zijin took the initiative to find Hu Yuanwai and said politely: "Hu Yuanwai, we have been bothering for many days, today is going to leave anyway, thanks to your care all the time, the mountains and rivers have met, we will have a period later." ”

Seeing that the two of them were determined to go irretrievably, Hu Yuanwai said with a sad face: "Two righteous men, let me tell you the truth, I really have something to ask you two, and I don't know how to speak." ”

Lou Zijin said: "If you have something to say, you don't have to say it." ”

Ye Pei also watched curiously.

Hu Yuanwai sighed and said, "Alas! Where to start! ”

It turns out that this Hu Yuanwai forced Ye Pei and Lou Zijin to stay with them is indeed selfish, and this matter is a long story.

This Hu Yuanwai's real name is Hu Dongqiang, and he is a foreigner. He joined Zhao Yuanwai's house, married Zhao Yuanwai's only daughter, and currently only gave birth to an only daughter, whose maiden name is Hu Yulan.

Once, this Zhao took his daughter back to his cousin's house to visit relatives, passed by Wolf's Den Mountain, and was favored by Zhao Yishan, the king of the cottage, and had to marry Hu Yulan as the wife of the village. This Zhao Yishan actually invited a matchmaker to give a dowry, saying that he was "marrying a Ming media", but what is the difference between it and robbing people's daughters?

Hu Yuanwai was not satisfied with this family business, and he was anxious in his heart, but he didn't dare to offend this cottage king, and he didn't dare to report to the official, for fear of retaliation, and the life of the whole family was not guaranteed. I want to escape, but my family is big, and it's not easy to move. Seeing that the good days were coming soon, I happened to meet Lou Zijin killing the bear. He saw that the two of them had worked hard, and thought that if Zhao Yishan was disturbed by Lou Zijin when he came to pick up his relatives, the surnamed Zhao might not dare to bother again.

Lou Zijin heard Hu Yuanwai say this, and replied with a deep groan: "The road is uneven, but we should help, but my junior brother and I have been delayed for a long time, and I am afraid it will be inappropriate not to set off again." You should report this to the police as soon as possible. ”

Seeing that Lou Zijin didn't want to take care of this matter, Hu Yuanwai knelt down and kowtowed with a "poof" and said, "Two righteous people, please save the lives of the little girl and our whole family." The little girl is strong, and she will never follow him up the mountain to be the lady of the village. If he forced her to marry, she would not have survived. My wife and I are such an only daughter, if she is gone, how can we still live? Two righteous men, please save the lives of our family of three! As he spoke, kowtowing was like pounding garlic.

Seeing this, Lou Zijin's heart softened, and he hurriedly helped Hu Yuanwai up.

Ye Pei caught up and said, "Hu Yuanwai, don't be in a hurry, I don't know what day the day is set?" ”

Hu Yuanwai said: "Three days later, in the evening. ”

Ye Pei said: "Okay, then we will stay for another three days, and I will discuss with my senior brother how to deal with this 'Tongjian Divine Fist'." ”

Seeing that Ye Pei was generous, Hu Yuanwai knelt down and said, "Ye Yishi will definitely save the lives of our whole family!" ”

Ye Pei went to help him again and said, "If you have something to say, let's discuss it first, and we won't sit idly by." ”

Hu Yuanwai left with great gratitude.

Lou Zijin said to Ye Pei: "How to manage this matter, people say, 'A strong dragon is difficult to suppress the head snake', let's get rid of him once, and when we leave, how about he come to kill people and set fire again?" ”

Ye Pei said: "Then let's let him never suffer in the future!" ”

"You come to say that it is light, he has been on that mountain for many years, we don't know what the specific situation is, how many soldiers and horses he has, what equipment, the enemy is in the dark, we are in the light, if there is a conflict, we may not be sure to win. This kind of thing should still be done by the government, bringing 180 officers and soldiers, leveling his cottage, and pressuring him to sit in prison. ”

Ye Pei said: "I have a plan, senior brother listens to it and sees if it is feasible?" ”

"Let's hear it first."

"When he got married three days later, I changed my costume to be the Hu lady, and took a sedan chair up the mountain to explore the reality of the cottage. The so-called 'capture the thief first captures the king', I just waited for him to enter the cave room to capture him in one fell swoop, and the other little minions are not just captured? ”

Lou Zijin hurriedly shook his head and said, "How can this work!" When I went down the mountain, the master told me to take care of you, how could I let you enter this Longtan Tiger's Den? ”

Ye Pei laughed and said, "Why don't you pretend to be that Hu lady, senior brother, and go up the mountain to marry that bandit?" I see that you are also tight, jade-faced Nezha! Ye Pei said and laughed, touched Lou Zijin's face with his hand, and then laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his waist.

Lou Zijin pouted and said, "It's not big, it's not small!" Sister, you're getting naughty and naughty! ”

Ye Pei laughed for a while before he said, "Otherwise, if you pretend to be a sedan chair bearer, let's go up the mountain together to make sure nothing goes wrong." I think with the two of us, who can escape? When the time comes, if you are arrested and escorted to the government, you may be able to get a reward of several thousand dollars, and it will not be a problem for us to take the plate and go to Bianliang. What do you think? ”

Lou Zijin thought for a while and said, "It's also a way." ”

Ye Pei called Hu Yuanwai back and explained the strategy, Hu Yuanwai was full of thanks, "When the time comes, I will find a few strong family members to go up the mountain together." ”

Ye Pei said: "No, no, it's easy to show your feet when there are too many people." ”

Hu Yuanwai nodded and said: "I really can't rest assured that only the two of you, I will find three or four more shrewd and capable people, and I will never spoil the affairs of the righteous man." ”

Ye Pei agreed, so everyone prepared separately.
