In the Water Margin world, there are not only many heroes, but also many beautiful women. Such as Li Ruilan, Li Qiaonu, Yan Poxi, Pan Jinlian, Pan Qiaoyun and so on. Which one is not graceful, famous, and beautiful?

Let's say, just to make an analogy!

These are a little vicious, not to mention, Hu Sanniang, Lin Niangzi, Master Li ......, one by one is beautiful, it's a bit unreasonable not to take a look.

Therefore, Master Chao motivates himself with an ulterior secret, and concentrates on reading all kinds of books and practicing calligraphy, and time flies.

The old housekeeper Comber personally came to deliver the meal, and once again witnessed the young master reading the book attentively, and still felt like a dream, thinking that this father only knew how to dance with guns and sticks, and specialized in making fox friends and dog friends, but now he has changed his temperament.

The old man touched the scene, burst into tears, and called the old master to have a spirit in the sky.

Chao Gai didn't know what to say, after a lunch event. Continue to hold the brush to practice calligraphy, on the slightly yellowed straw paper, the dragon and phoenix dance, vigorous and powerful large characters are presented, and the more you write, the better you look.

"Master......" He was throwing ink in his forgetfulness, and someone outside the courtyard suddenly shouted.

"Master...... happy event, great joy!"

As soon as Chao Gai put down the brush, Zhuang Ke was in a hurry, shouting and rushing into the study. He didn't know this man, but he still smiled and nodded, and his attitude was gentle.

"Don't worry, why are you so happy?"

The dealer sang a big song and reported the situation concisely and clearly: "Master, a group of traders selling cattle and sheep have come to invest in the village, and the old housekeeper is entertaining." There are dozens of good horses in the Northland, and seven or eight of them are particularly wonderful. ”

"What, such a thing?"

After listening to the report, Chao Gai was overjoyed and followed Zhuang Ke straight to the living room.

Dozens of good horses from the Northland, he can't help but be unhappy!

Since the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, Shi Jingtang, the founding emperor of the Jin Dynasty, in order to realize the dream of the "emperor", asked the Khitan people for help and ceded the sixteen states of Yanyun. In the early days of the Northern Song Dynasty, the whole country only signed the alliance of Lanyuan, but it has not been able to recapture Yanyun, so that the natural barrier and the Great Wall of Gongwei North China Plain have been lost.

On the one hand, the vast pastures in the north were lost. The lack of war horses is a common phenomenon, not to mention the civilian army.

Good horses are extremely rare, and one is hard to find! Even in the huge Chao Mansion, there are only a few good horses, and even fewer lost two a few days ago. Inferior horses, mules are herds, but they can't go to the battlefield and can only travel on their behalf.

Chao Gai understood that the Jurchen tribe between the white waters of Montenegro had quietly risen and defeated the Khitan. In a few years, the iron hooves of the golden people will trample on the land of the Central Plains. If you don't prepare early, you will be slaughtered by then.

Only money and food were needed to recruit guards, and good horses could only be bought in the north. So, now that there is a chance to meet, these good horses must be bought!

Chao Gai rushed to the living room in a hurry, but he didn't see anyone, and he didn't wait to ask the banker. Comber hurried over, followed by a young man.

This person is at most twenty-five or sixteen years old, born with a tiger's back and a wolf's waist, and a burly body. Wearing a gray-brown soft scarf, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, a dignified appearance and a good temperament. But his face was full of anxiety, his body was stained with blood, and his clothes were torn in many places.

Is there a situation?

Chao Gai couldn't help but be suspicious when he saw the condition of the person who came. Just as he was about to ask, the young man saw a strong man in the hall who was eight feet four or five inches tall with sideburns and beard, and hurriedly stepped forward and fell to the ground: "Presumably, Your Excellency is the Chao Heavenly King of the Righteous Bo Yuntian?" The younger brother has seen it here, and I hope to ask the king of heaven to help. ”

Chao Gai was confused by the young man's actions. After reacting, he hurriedly stepped forward to help him up: "Little brother doesn't need to be polite, please get up quickly." If there is any difficulty, even if you open your mouth, coming to the village is equivalent to coming to your own home. ”

At this point, Comber leaned in and whispered the situation.

It turned out that this group of cattle and sheep dealers passed through Hangang Town on the way back from the Northland, and they never wanted to encounter a group of people to intercept them, and the other party originally planned to buy and sell by force. The young people naturally refused, but they didn't expect the other party to snatch it directly.

There are so many people on the other side that there are not many of the hundreds of livestock left!

The leader of the vendors, that is, the uncle of the young man, is angry, and the old disease has relapsed. Knowing that Chao Gai was generous and righteous, he specially came to Touzhuang for help. The old housekeeper had settled the injury number directly before, and did not come to the living room.

"The owner of the village, the money for selling livestock is made up by the whole village, and it is related to the lives of hundreds of people, and I hope to save it." The young man clenched his fists with pleading faces.

"I see! How can this really be true? Chao Gai was furious when he heard this. I didn't expect that in addition to bandits and bandits, someone would dare to rob in broad daylight.

Of course, he is not the reckless king of the past, and asked in a deep voice: "Little brother, how many strongmen are there in this group?" Have you reported to the authorities? ”

"Heavenly King, there are about 100 people, it should be a caravan, and the younger brother has asked people to go to the county seat."

"Okay, here's coming! Notify the guards to assemble. Chao Gai shouted outside the door. It's not that he's nosy, but he sees that the young man in front of him is good, affectionate, and worthy of befriending. Besides, Chao Gai is in the name of righteousness and generosity, how can others not help others to invest in the village?

Otherwise, if it spreads, won't it be ridiculed by the world?

This notorious will occupy Liangshan in the future, and there will be no heroes to vote. For public and private, this favor must be helped, and it must be helped beautifully.

As the saying goes, the people of the world are in charge of the affairs of the world!

"Butler, let people get the best doctor, don't be afraid to spend money." Since Chao Gai decided to help, he would help to the end, and when he thought of the injury, he immediately commanded in a deep voice.

"Master, I've already sent someone to invite you."

"Well, tell the room not to snub the patient."

"Yes, sir!" Comber answered, and trotted down to make arrangements! Although the old housekeeper picks the door, he will never delay the topic of right and wrong. When people are old and refined, outsiders are changing their names to maintain the majesty of the owner.

"Thank you, Heavenly King." The young man was so moved that he fell to the ground.

"Little brother, you're welcome!" Chao Gai hurriedly stepped forward to help, comforting as he walked out: "When you go out, if you encounter difficulties, we should reach out to help, brother, please relax, the livestock will definitely ask you to come back." ”

"Thank you!" Just two words show the mood of young people, only gratitude!

……

The gate of Chaofu Village was wide open, dozens of good horses rushed out, and behind them were more than 200 guards riding inferior horses, all of whom were holding knives, guns and sticks, and they were murderous. Even the guards who were slightly injured the day before yesterday picked up the guys and went into battle.

In order to recover the livestock, dozens of good horses come in handy!

"Owner, that gang of thieves has cattle and sheep to tie in, and they will definitely not be able to go far." The young man rode a tall horse and led the way with a simple knife in his hand.

"That's good......" Chao Gai clumsily rode a good northland horse. After all, I haven't ridden many times before, but fortunately, I have experience in riding motorcycles. After bouncing up and down for a while, I gradually got used to it and liked the feeling.

"By the way, I don't know where my brother is?"

When the young man heard the inquiry, he hurriedly shook the reins and rode his horse parallel to Chao Gai, and he was a little less alive: "Brother, the younger brother's ancestral home is from Jinling Jiankang Mansion. Since his parents died when he was a child, he followed his uncle and a group of fellow villagers to sell sheep and horses to make a living. ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention!

Wait, people from Jinling Jiankang Mansion? Cattle and sheep sellers?

Chao Gai suddenly remembered someone. His eyes fell on the young man, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that it was. Hurriedly asked: "Jiankang Mansion?" Brother Mo is not that desperate Saburo Shixiu? ”

(Jiankang Mansion is the name of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the Northern Song Dynasty should be Jiangning, but respect the original work)

"Oh? The younger brother is surnamed Shi, and his single name is a show character. The young man was startled at first, and then overjoyed: "Just because he was nosy and uneven since he was a child, he was given the nickname of Desperate Saburo, and my brother has also heard of the younger brother?" ”

"Hehehe, of course I've heard of it, San Lang's fame is great." Chao Gai nodded with a smile on his face, and sighed in his heart that my brother had not only heard of you, but also understood you very well. Where was my henchman who was still calling for me before, but I didn't expect a San Lang to fall from the sky! If you throw yourself into the bank, you're welcome.

Shi Xiu, in the original trajectory, first succeeded in discovering the mechanism of Pantuo Road from the old man Zhongli in Zhujiazhuang, and also helped Song Jiang, who was trapped in the labyrinth, to break through. It shows a super ability to work in intelligence. and feigned defeat and was willing to be captured. In the end, he made a great contribution and gained a firm foothold in Liangshan in one fell swoop!

Strong and tenacious, very fine, show off the wisdom!

Twelve words are enough to explain the characteristics of Shi Xiu!

"Talent! never gave in, and can be called the second best man after Lu Zhishen. ”

Chao Gai smiled all over his face, and took the initiative to chat with Shi Xiu about homely things and understand the scenery of the Northland. Shi Xiu is an upright man, who knows everything and says everything.

The two spoke speculatively, and after a while, they became familiar with each other.

"San Lang, that gang of thieves is in Luoxia Ridge, ten miles away." The team was hurrying towards the place of the incident, when suddenly they saw a horse rushing in front of them. It was a man in his thirties, dressed in a sackcloth robe, with a thin and strong figure, dark skin, and bright eyes, and very shrewd.

Without waiting for Chao Gai to ask, Shi Xiu pointed to the person who came and hurriedly said the previous arrangement. It turned out that when the team was outnumbered and retreated, Shi Xiu asked Shi Kai to secretly follow the thief, and he could report to the official even if he couldn't ask for help.

"Good! Brother is as delicate as a hair! Chao Gai exclaimed. Originally, Shi Xiu was careful and had strong on-the-spot reaction ability, but he didn't expect to witness it with his own eyes. In the case of being robbed, you can still think so carefully.

It is worthy of Tianhuixing, and it really lives up to its name!

Someone led the way, and the speed of the team increased significantly! The horse team, in particular, threw off the rear team by a large margin, which was the result of deliberately slowing down.

How far can a dozen miles go!

Dozens of good horses rushed to the destination - Luoxia Ridge without a cup of tea. The surrounding terrain is relatively flat, and a maple forest sits on one side. In the distance, I saw a group of people driving a large number of cattle, sheep and other livestock forward.

"Dog thief, take my livestock, where to go?"

When the enemies see each other, they are very red! Shi Xiu saw that the gang of thieves was angry. A roar was like a thunderbolt exploding, and the horse and sword were flapped and rushed over.

"Brother, don't be reckless!" Chao Gai was afraid that Shi Xiu's impulse would be lost, so he hurriedly ordered the team to speed up and catch up, and took the lead in shouting: "Oh, the dog thief is leaving!" ”

"The dog thief is gone." The guards shouted.

Dozens of good horses spread their hooves and galloped wildly, the sound of horses' hooves rumbling and roaring shook the sky. The smoke and dust are rolling all the way, not thousands of troops but there is no momentum!
