Chapter 29: Meeting Fang La (2)

Mrs. Fang also happened to meet Zhao Chongyang and them on the way, thanks to Zhao Chongyang, who cut off Yan Xiyin's dog paws to give Jin Ren a dismount. At the same time, several of them blocked arrows for their mother and daughter, and defeated the ferocious Jin Wushu and others, so as to keep the reputation of the mother and daughter, and at the same time avoid the possibility of the two dying at the hands of the Jin people.

Fang La listened to it and solemnly thanked Wang Daping and Zhao Chongyang. As for the question of joining the Wantong Chamber of Commerce and making a fortune together in Jiangnan, he promised to immediately convene a meeting between Wang Gong Lao Buddha and several important subordinates to discuss, and give them an accurate answer in three days at most.

In this way, Zhao Chongyang and Wang Daping temporarily lived in Fangjiazhai.

Fangjiazhai has a total of more than 600 households and a population of more than 2,100. It is a well-known big village in Qingxi County. Since this area is mountainous, it has been a place of thieves throughout the dynasties. So, all the families lived in the village. Fangjia village is surrounded by a wall, the houses of the residents are built according to the mountain, there are three gates, namely the south gate, the east gate and the west gate, the north is a mountain ridge tens of meters high, there is no person in the village to lead the way to enter the village from the back mountain, unless there is a real kung fu of flying eaves and walking the wall.

The people in the village are either tenants of the Fang family or clansmen of the Fang family, so Fang La has the absolute right to speak in the village. He now has a twenty-eight-year-old monk named Shi Bao, who is a Shaolin disciple and has strong martial arts. There is also a young man in his twenties, Wang Yan, who is not only good at kung fu, but also good at planning. Fang La's eighteen-year-old nephew Fang Tianjie was born with divine power and amazing kung fu, and was known as the enemy of ten thousand people. In addition, there are also young heroes such as Si Xingfang, Li Tianrun, Pang Wanchun, etc., whose martial arts are not under the kung fu of Lin Chong, Guan Sheng, Lu Zhishen, Wu Song and others in another time and space. Not to mention Fang La, he can rival Lu Zhishen and Wu Song, the two fierce generals, that is, Fang La's son Fang Foqi (one says Fang Tianding, in fact, Fang Tianding is a nephew), and martial arts are not under Yang Zhi.

Fang Baihua, Qiu Qiongying, and Pang Qiuxia are not trivial, far better than Liangshan's Sun Erniang and Gu Sister-in-law, only Hu Sanniang is at the same level as them. Fang Baihua is not only strong in martial arts, but also good at commanding troops and has generals. Pang Qiuxia is a sharpshooter like Brother Nai, and Qiu Qiongying's flying stone is within fifty meters. In "Water Margin", it is said that Qiong Ying's flying stone stunt was taught by Zhang Qing, a wingless arrow, which is wrong. Zhang Qing was originally Qiu Qiongying's senior brother, and the flying stone stunts of the two came from Qiu Qiongying's father, Qiu Wanquan, a famous Jiangnan secret weapon. It is not recorded in Qiu Wanquan's "Water Margin" that he is the helmsman of the Hangzhou branch of the Fang La Demon Sect. In the early stage, he mainly trained archers for Fang La and managed logistics in Hangzhou, stockpiling grain, grass and ships, and soon died of illness.

……

Since the old man Wang Lao Qi and the others fooled Fang La and others and established the Demon Sect, he called himself Wang Gong Lao Buddha and became the head of the Demon Sect, and he traveled back and forth between the villages and towns of Muzhou counties every day, mobilizing everyone to join the Demon Sect (the external name is Mingjiao). It is declared to the outside world that the world is about to be in turmoil, and the Lord of the Heavens has come to the world. Only by joining the Ming Sect and asking the leader of the sect to save the world from fire and water can everyone turn evil into good fortune in troubled times. That night, accompanied by more than a dozen young disciples, he came back from the neighboring village, feeling a little tired, and fell asleep when he returned to his resting place in the Bangyuan Cave.

In his sleep, he dreamed that he was explaining the purpose of Mingjiao to everyone, and suddenly a glittering meteorite flew from the sky and fell in front of everyone. The meteorite seemed to be some kind of living thing, jumping and rolling on the ground...... Ah, it's not a meteorite, it's a little golden snake, and it flies into the sky and dances wildly. After a while, it turned into a five-clawed golden dragon, flying up and down in the sky, and suddenly it swooped down on the heads of Old Man Wang and all of them, and everyone was so frightened that they dodged, and Old Man Wang was so frightened that he woke up from his dream.

Wake up and recall the scene in the dream, vividly. He secretly felt strange in his heart, it had been more than three years since he had been here, and he had never had such a strange dream. Could it be that the heavens hinted that the true dragon son of heaven would be born here? And send someone to inquire whether Fangjiazhai and the nearby villages gave birth to a son last night, if so, when they went to the door to congratulate him, he asked his parents to take their son out to see the appearance of this son, and they would know.

It wasn't until dinner in the afternoon that the henchmen and disciples sent out came back one after another to report that no one in Fangjiazhai and the nearby villages more than ten miles apart had given birth to a son last night, not even a family that gave birth to a daughter. After listening to the report of his subordinates, Old Man Wang showed a puzzled expression on his face, and he was ready to send people to various places to keep an eye on him for three consecutive days.

Who knew that after breakfast the next morning, he was about to send someone out, but he saw the sect leader Fang La leading an eleven or twelve-year-old child to his residence. I was shocked, isn't this the face of the rich and noble mentioned in the photo book? Could it be that the night before's dream is reflected in this son? Old man Wang was shocked in his heart.

The eleven or twelve-year-old boy brought by Fang La was none other than Zhao Congyang, who arrived in Fangjiazhai at noon yesterday. Originally, Fang La was going to bring Zhao Congyang over yesterday afternoon for Wang Gong to take a look, and he instinctively felt that this young man was indeed a little extraordinary. But because I had something to do to go out, I postponed it until this morning.

On the way to Bangyuandong, Fang La walked and introduced to Zhao Chongyang: Bangyuandong is in the lacquer forest behind Fangjiazhai, five or six miles away from Fangjiazhai. It is a very large karst cave, and now only a few core figures of the Demon Sect such as Wang Laoqi and Wang Yan live in it, and all the meetings and decisions of Fang La and them are completed here. Many small caves in the cave are where Fang La stored their materials and weapons. In particular, one of the forked holes is not only very spacious, but also very dry, and the temperature is very low, so you must wear cotton clothes to enter the hole in winter. It is a good place to store grain and other foodstuffs, and rats cannot survive in it. Therefore, it is very safe to put the grain inside, and there is no fear of rats eating it at all. Fang La died a few years ago, and there was food stored here in case of panic. Over the years, thousands of stone of grain have been accumulated.

The hole is very big, I don't know how many dozen miles there are, even Fang La and they lived here, and they never walked through. It is not known exactly where it leads, but as long as there is food, there is no problem for tens of thousands of people to live. When Fang La told Zhao Chongyang all this unreservedly, Fang La himself felt funny, why he couldn't be a little wary of this new child, and actually told Zhao Chongyang the secret of helping Yuandong.

The two came to Wang Laoqi, and Wang Yan, who was just about to go out to do business, heard a report from his subordinates, saying that the sect leader had gone to Wang Gong Lao Buddha, and he also rushed over. Fang La introduced Zhao Chongyang to the two of them, and briefly explained Zhao Chongyang's experience and the incident that happened to save Fang Baihua's mother and daughter in the picture of coming to Qingyuan County the day before yesterday.

Old man Wang has traveled the rivers and lakes all his life and has seen all kinds of people, but he has never seen someone like Zhao Chongyang. This son is not only extraordinary, but also precocious, and is a young talent known as a prodigy. Then he opened his mouth and asked: "I heard that Zhao Jieyuan made a special trip to invite our sect leader to join the Wantong Chamber of Commerce, Xiao Lao'er really didn't understand, the entire Great Song Dynasty officials and nobles, and there are countless wealthy families, you would choose our sect leader and Mingjiao, and please explain it to me well, why is this?" ”

Zhao Chongyang said with a smile: "Back then, Cao Cao and Liu Bei cooked wine and talked about heroes, Liu Bei listed Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zhan, Liu Biao and countless other princes, Cao Cao scoffed, saying that the heroes of the world were 'only Cao and Liu Envoy Jun'er', in addition, at most, Sun Quan of Eastern Wu was barely a figure. Therefore, later generations have a word to sigh: 'Who is the opponent of the heroes of the world?' Cao Liu, giving birth to a son should be like Sun Zhongmou. This shows that the great heroes and heroes since ancient times are not self-appointed, but are determined according to their minds, bearings, insights and their attitude towards the common people in the world. Like today's high-ranking officials and nobles, wealthy families, up to today's Taoist emperors, down to ordinary eight- and nine-grade officials, the vast majority of them are incompetent people who see money and are stupid, who really cares about the life and death of the lower class people? Uncle Fang's sect leader is different, although he is only a cloth cloth, he has justice in his heart, hoes the strong and helps the weak, is kind and charitable, and never harsh tenants and subordinates, so his prestige among the middle and lower class people is very high, not only the people of Fangjiazhai obey him, but the people of the nearby ten villages and eight villages also believe in him, so he is the hero I want to seek cooperation. ”

"I know that Sect Master Fang has great ambitions, and Senior Wang's eyes are like torches. You have all seen the corruption of the imperial court, and you have seen that the end of the Great Song Dynasty is not far away, and you have the idea of changing the dynasty. But I said that the hundred-legged insect died but did not stiffen, and although the Great Song Dynasty was rotten to the bones, it was still stable for at least ten years.
