Three days later, the group arrived in Xingzhou and settled down to rest in a market town outside the city.

Wu Song had recovered a lot, and he was shouting that the wound on his back was numb and itchy all day long, and Song Wen knew that it was because of Changxin meat. It's just that this guy is really a drunkard who can be compared to Li Yan, and he has always remembered the Tiandi Spring he drank that day.

Although An Chun's martial arts are not the best, he is indeed clever. After going out for a few turns, I came back with a big package.

Since he was a child, he has been a beggar and has been on the streets and rivers, and An Chun's experience in the rivers and lakes is definitely not inferior to anyone. After returning to the inn, I opened the package, and there were actually two copies of the degree and official certificates issued by the officials of the government and temple, as well as two sets of half-new and not old and not eye-catching monk robes at all, a short precept knife and two Zen sticks.

In addition, the hat, furoshi, skin, change of clothes, shoes and socks are also ready.

Song Wen opened a small porcelain bottle, which contained a potion specially designed to wash away the tattoos of the official mansion...... "Two martial brothers, there is a Huiqing Temple about fifteen miles east outside the city. If the two of you want to go to Chuzhou, Xuzhou safely to find the leader of Song Jiang and Song, you should find a place to rest first, recover from your injuries and then go on the road! ”

With that, Song Wen gently put a bag of silver on the table.

"I am also from a bitter background in the rivers and lakes, and I know what it is like to be oppressed by officials...... It's just that Song Wen can't take care of things so far now, so he can only do so much. ”

Wu Dalang and Wu Erlang glanced at each other, and knelt down on one knee...... Wu Song arched his hand and said, "Engong, the grace of saving lives cannot be repaid!" I saw that there were not many people around Engong, and I thought that Engong could keep the two of us to work! Engong, the great favor has not been repaid, and I Wusong is uneasy! ”

Song Wen said with a smile: "I'm used to being big-footed, and I don't know how much silver I sprinkled in Bianliang to go out to those who need help...... To tell you the truth, all the villagers in my Qingshan Village are all lonely young people I have rescued in the past few years...... It's all my brothers! But I also told them to the truth, if you join my army village to serve me, if you are tired of being a village soldier after the age of 30...... You can leave freely! If I want to do business, I have a trading house, if I want to work, I have a workshop, and if I want to farm, I have land and a grange! I have some money, but I don't like money either...... Money is just a means to make your siblings, family and friends look better, it's nothing. ”

An Chun next to him said with a smile: "All the township soldiers and brothers in Qingshanzhai have a minimum of five acres of land in their hands, and then lease them together to those tenant farmers or homeless people who have a large population and lack of land. The military village collects one percent of the tax, the township soldiers keep three percent, and the rest of the seed money is paid by the people and the township soldiers each pay half of it, and the people can get sixty percent of the harvest! ”

"Oh my God!"

Song Wen's good treatment of the soldiers in the village made the martial brothers dumbfounded.

An Chun continued: "But the township soldiers don't expect this, our township soldiers have military salaries according to their ranks!" There is no arrears in monthly distribution, and there are bonus rewards every time the bandits are fighting, and the head work is more than that given by the imperial court! If there are casualties and 50 to 200 yuan of bereavement money, the brothers who died will also enter the martyr's hall and receive incense at four o'clock......"

Song Wen sighed: "In the previous attempts to suppress bandits and appease the villagers, several brothers have been injured and six brothers have been killed...... However, as long as I, Song Wen, are still there, and the Daqingshan Military Village is still there, the incense of the Loyal Martyrs' Hall and the lives of the disabled brothers must not go wrong. ”

"Song Zhizhai is benevolent and righteous, and we are waiting for the five bodies to ......"

Wu Dalang bowed and said softly.

Song Wen looked at Wu Song and said: "Our brothers are all young people, and some of our martial arts are also very ordinary, but we are brave and go hand in hand!" If the martial brother didn't have a deep blood feud, I would definitely open my mouth to solicit it! It's just that the family revenge has not been avenged, how can you feel at ease? I don't want to make the two of you sad and sad about the old and young women and children at home, but ...... If the two of them take revenge or settle down at home after they go back, and want to come over to help Song do something big together, Song Wen will definitely sweep the couch to greet him! ”

Wu Song nodded...... "A friend who came over in Bianliang once said that Brother Wen of Bianliang is a little Meng who is righteous and thin, and he is righteous and squandering money...... At first, I didn't believe it, but now it seems that ...... And that's not all? I, Wu Song, swear to the sky, after taking revenge, I will come over to Song Langjun, saddle up and fight after the horse! ”

Song Wen was overjoyed, such a good man in the rivers and lakes made a promise, it seems that he has already pried down the corner of Song Jiang!

Outside the inn, the two martial brothers who wore loose hair and dressed as two walking heads said goodbye to Song Wen reluctantly...... After getting along for a few days, the martial arts brothers sincerely admired the young Song Wen, treated their brothers like brothers and sisters, and treated their friends in the rivers and lakes with righteousness.

It's rare, it's really rare!

Looking at the backs of the martial brothers in the distance, Song Wen sighed...... Xiao Mengwei: Hehe, I have a not-so-majestic nickname, but I never cared about these things.

The rivers and lakes, after all, are just a bend of shallow water. Compared with the general trend of the world, it is really shallow.

Song Wen said to An Chun with his hands behind his back: "Did the Zhending Mansion send a letter over there?" Arrange a place to live and settle the eldest lady, send a few more people and maids to take care of it, don't let her run away! ”

An Chun was stunned for a moment: "Brother really doesn't take the eldest lady into the grassland with him?"

"How's that going to work? What should I do if I am in danger? I won't be able to explain to her father when the time comes...... Remember, the Northwest Prairie is my left hand! The Dengju Peninsula and the Sanxian Island Sea Fortress are my right hand...... Troubled times are coming, these two hands are indispensable! ”

An Chun nodded: "I'll arrange it."

Song Wen and a few people should also change their clothes and dress up as dart guards, escorting more than a dozen carriages on the road. The group didn't enter Xingzhou City at all, and directly turned around and walked in the direction of Zhending Mansion.

The more she walked, the more silent the little girl who was originally happy and giggling all day long, and then she didn't even ride the horse at all, and hid in the carriage all day long and didn't know what to think.

Three of the carriages brought by Song Wen were loaded with grain and dry food, and An Chun and the others became more and more silent as they walked, until the convoy came to a mountain pass next to a small market town, and two of the four township soldiers got off their horses and knelt in front of a village ruin on the left side of the official road.

Song Wen looked at An Chun, who was guarding behind him, and asked, "The two sons of the six sons are from this place?" Is there anyone else in the house? ”

An Chun shook his head gloomily: "No, both of them couldn't survive back then and their families escaped from here...... Thinking of going to the Daimyo's Mansion to find a way to survive, it turned out that all the family members starved to death. ”

Song Wen sighed, jumped off the war horse and came to the two sad and weeping villagers, and the little girl didn't know when she also walked out and followed behind Song Wen step by step.

Taking out a pot of wine, Song Wen knelt down on one knee and gently sprinkled the wine in front of him, whispering tribute to the villagers of this small village who almost fled to death because of the disaster.

The two township soldiers of Zhending Mansion couldn't help but cry in mourning, Song Wen and a few brothers hurriedly comforted, and the little girl also touched her tears.

Liuzi raised his head, looked at Song Wen and said, "Lang Jun! My family escaped with four people, my sister was separated and abducted by her teeth, and my father and brother were dead! I'm the only one left, and it's only been a few years? My village is gone...... I am afraid that the land has also been occupied by the government, so many people ...... How could this Great Song Dynasty make it so difficult for so many people to live! ”

Song Wen looked at the ruins in front of him with a cold face, a natural disaster...... A natural disaster can cut off the poor people's way of life, is this really the Great Song Dynasty that is rich in the world?
