Chapter 118: Confession Bureau
"Lift the coffin!"
Eight embroidered wrestlers shouted loudly, lifted the heavy coffin and slowly got up.
Yang Ge, who was dressed in linen and filial piety, stood in front of the coffin, tightly holding the clay pot that burned paper money, as if he was at a loss.
Seeing this, Liu Mang, who was shouting on one side, rushed to him in three steps and two steps, held the clay pot in his hand high above the top, and said loudly: "Drop the pot." ”
"Smack."
The pot smashed to pieces on the ground.
The clay pot fell, and the yin and yang were separated.
The fate of this life is over......
……
Three days later.
Yang Ge sat quietly under his own grape trellis, reading the secret book of the Five Elements Returning to Vitality.
A grape leaf that has survived the winter falls silently in the warm spring breeze.
He bent down to pick up the grape leaf and gently tucked it into the secret book in his hand.
Xiao Huang, who was lying at his feet, stood up and gently arched his palms with his wet nose.
"Hungry?"
Yang Ge stroked its head: "I'll cook." ”
He put the cheats on the table, got up, rolled up his sleeves, and walked to the stove house.
Xiao Huang followed him with his tail drooping, and after walking a few steps, he suddenly turned his head to look at the courtyard gate.
"Bang bang bang."
The courtyard door was slammed violently.
Yang Ge put down the girdle he had just taken off, and walked slowly over to open the courtyard door.
Liu Mang stood outside the door and raised a string of oil paper bags and two jars of rice wine in his hand: "Have you eaten?" ”
Yang Ge smiled: "No. ”
Liu Mang raised his foot and crossed the threshold: "That's just right!" ”
Yang Ge closed the courtyard door, turned around and walked to the stove house again: "Sit by yourself, I'll steam some rice...... The cheats on the table were given to me by a friend, and I couldn't show them to a second person without his permission. ”
Liu Mang, who was looking at the five big characters "Five Elements Return to Vitality" on the cover of the cheats, sighed heavily.
He put the cooked food and wine in his hand on the table, strolled outside the stove house, and leaned against the door frame of the stove house and said in a deep voice: "You are Yang Erlang and Zhang Mazi, right?" ”
In the stove house, Yang Ge was intently beating the flint to make a fire, and replied casually when he heard the sound: "Yes." ”
Liu Mang: ......
He felt something was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong.
After thinking about it for a while, he wondered, "Now you're finally willing to tell me?" ”
Yang Ge smiled: "You didn't ask me before." ”
Liu Mang: "If I asked you before, would you be able to recognize it?" ”
Yang Ge: "I definitely don't recognize it." ”
Liu Mang: "Then don't you still fool your brother as a fool?" ”
Yang Ge shook his head: "If you have to think clearly, you won't come to ask me this question." ”
Liu Mang took a deep breath, he actually knew that he shouldn't have asked.
But this problem stuck in his throat for no less than seven or eight days, he really didn't vomit or feel unhappy.
He sorted out his chaotic thoughts, and still asked with a bit of disbelief: "So, you are really embroidered and guarded?" ”
Yang Ge thought for a moment and replied, "It used to be, but now it's not. ”
Liu Mang: "So, you grabbed all the grain from the three major grain merchants?" ”
Yang Ge: "I robbed it." ”
Liu Mang: "So, those corrupt officials in Jiangsu and Zhejiang were really killed by you." ”
Yang Ge: "I killed him." ”
Liu Mang: "So, Duan Yu, the 'King of Desperation', also died under your knife?" ”
Yang Ge: "He died under my sword." ”
Liu Mang: "So, the 'Manifest Saint True Monarch' Yang Erlang on the list of heroes in the rivers and lakes is really you?" ”
Yang Ge: "It's my ......"
The question that had been hovering in his mind for many days was answered, but Liu Mang only felt that his mind was more blurred.
Liu Mang scratched the back of his head vigorously and asked in a broken voice, "What the hell is going on?" Who are you? How could a big man like you come to Yuelai Inn to be a shopkeeper? ”
Yang Ge smiled: "Things are actually not as complicated as you think, when the old shopkeeper took me in, I was indeed homeless, and the old shopkeeper's kindness to me and my kindness were all true!" ”
He glanced at Liu Mang, who was full of collapse, and continued without waiting for him to ask: "When the grace martial arts test was taken, Jiang Kui made trouble in our inn, do you remember?" It's the old shopkeeper who told you to return to the road pavilion. ”
Liu Mang tried hard to turn his mind around, nodded and said, "Remember." ”
Yang Ge lowered his head and scooped rice: "The leg technique left by Jiang Kui is the first martial art I learned. ”
Liu Mang shook his head vigorously: "Impossible, when I go home, your martial arts will be stronger than me!" ”
Yang Ge: "There is a kind of gifted physique on the rivers and lakes, born with hundreds of bones like jade, all veins, this kind of physique also has a famous hall called 'Little Grandmaster's Body', have you heard of it?" ”
Liu Mang's eyes widened and he looked at him in disbelief: "Don't say that you are the body of a little grandmaster!" ”
Yang Ge poured the washed rice into the hot water, and replied lightly while stirring it slowly: "I don't want me to have this kind of physique, I just want to be a shopkeeper in our inn and live this life in peace...... But I just did. ”
"At the beginning, Jiang Kui gave me that leg method because I had this kind of physique, and the embroidered guard Qianhu who was responsible for escorting Jiang Kui into Beijing at that time was the current commander of the embroidered guard, Shen Fan, and he forcibly recruited me into the embroidered guard because I had this physique."
He glanced at Liu Mang and said softly, "What do you think I have to choose?" ”
Liu Mang's pig brain was overloaded and he couldn't say a word.
Yang Ge stirred the rice grains boiling in the pot: "You should know what happened next, the three major grain merchants hoarded and drove up prices, I am the general banner of the Luting embroidered clothes, seeing that the neighbors are living so badly, I robbed the grain of the three major grain merchants and sent them ......"
"Because of that incident, I was promoted to the right of the embroidered guard."
"Didn't the three major grain merchants invite people from the Changfeng Gang to kill me halfway? After I made a thousand households, I went to Jiangnan to find trouble with the Changfeng Gang, and I killed the corrupt officials in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. ”
"Because of this incident, the officials of the thousand households are gone, and the emperor demoted me to the rank of the man of the upper right office."
"As for my martial arts, when I grabbed the grain of the three major grain merchants, I was not much stronger than you now."
"When I went to Jiangnan, I refined and refined the gas, at that time, because of the investigation of the case, I owed Lianwuwu a favor, that Duan Yu wanted to find trouble with Lianhuanwu, so I killed Duan Yu and returned the favor of Lianhuanwu."
"Then, this year, I was on the list of heroes in the rivers and lakes......"
Liu Mang rubbed his brain, and shouted loudly in his heart, "Yes, yes, all right".
He remembered that when Zhang Mazi went on a killing spree in Luting and beat the people of the Changfeng Gang to the ground on the second day, Yang Ge fell ill inexplicably and couldn't stand steadily.
And when Zhang Mazi and Yang Erlang became famous in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, it was also the time when Yang Ge took leave to go out to run errands......
Yang Ge drained the boiled rice grains from the large iron pot, washed the large iron pot, and steamed the rice with a rice retort.
Then he used two small bowls to hold two bowls of rice soup and handed Liu Mang a bowl: "As for why I want to hide it from you, just like why I opposed you opening a martial arts gym in the first place, as far as these things I do, any one that falls on you will be a catastrophe that destroys your family and family!" ”
"This time at my house...... The old man is gone, I can't bear to let him go so coldly, and as soon as his heart is relaxed, he will make things bigger, and now I am afraid that people with a little brain will know that I Yang Ge is Yang Erlang and Zhang Mazi. ”
Liu Mang was holding the hot rice soup, and always felt that Yang Ge's last sentence was scolding him around the corner.
But he didn't think it was, after all, he also understood that Yang Ge was Yang Erlang and Zhang Mazi's people.
The two returned to the grape trellis with the rice soup and sat down, and opened a few packets of cooked food brought by Liu Mang.
Liu Mang drank half a bowl of rice soup, put down the bowl and asked, "Then what are you going to do now?" ”
Yang Ge shook his head: "I don't know, what should I do......"
Liu Mang: "You don't know? ”
Yang Ge: "I'm not an immortal, I don't have the ability to pinch and calculate, I can only take care of the old man's funeral first, the living can care about the affairs of the living, how to care about the dead people?" ”
Liu Mang felt that there was nothing wrong with his words, so he thought about it and asked, "You haven't been back to the inn for a few days, just for this?" ”
Yang Ge asked rhetorically, "Do you think I can go back to the inn?" ”
Liu Mang slapped the table: "Why can't you go back?" Jianghu rules: Disaster is not for your family, what you do is right and good, what are you afraid of! ”
Yang Ge shook his head and said slowly: "That's what I said, but we can't pin the safety of our own family on whether others have a conscience and don't follow the rules...... What if? What if there is such a conscienceless and unruly pickled thing, and I can't help it, so I stretch out my claws to the old shopkeeper and my sister-in-law, what should I do? ”
"If something really happens, we just chop up the minced meat of the person who did it, what can we get back?"
"Except for life and death, everything is a trivial matter......"
Liu Mang brushed his sideburns, and also felt a headache: "Then what do you say?" ”
Yang Ge ate the pig's head and thought for a long time before asking, "Are you interested in going to the capital to develop?" ”
Liu Mang understood what he meant, and replied: "The two of us can go anywhere, but the old man is afraid that he will not go anywhere." ”
Yang Ge remembered the old shopkeeper's old appearance, opened the wine on the table and poured out two glasses, and gestured with a cup: "After all, I have been a burden to you......
Liu Mang held a cup in one hand and gently patted Yang Ge's shoulder with the other: "If you really want to talk about this, it is also our old Liu family who has affected you, if you hadn't stopped our old Liu family from the disaster, there would be no such things later." ”
Yang Ge shook his head: "If you want to say that, if the old shopkeeper hadn't given me a bowl of rice to eat and a place to live, I would have frozen to death on the street two years ago, how could I be today?" ”
He said that at the beginning, Liu Mang thought of Yang Ge's front foot still killing officials in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, such as killing dogs, and returning to the inn with the back foot to make a disobedient picture of laughing when he met someone, and couldn't help laughing: "This may be a good person with a good reward!" ”
Yang Ge filled him with wine, thought for a moment and said: "It's okay if the old shopkeeper doesn't want to go to the capital, I bought the inn at a high price, and I will operate it as usual in the future, and the two of us will go down to ...... You don't believe that I have no other intentions in the inn, and others naturally won't believe it. ”
"When the days go by, others will only think of me as a hidden stake for the embroidered clothes guard, lurking in the inn, and will not think of our two families as relatives."
"If I quietly transfer two embroidered clothes guards near your house to guard the old shopkeeper and sister-in-law, there shouldn't be any more big problems."
Liu Mang immediately grasped the blind spot in his words, slapped the table and said, "You still say that you are not an embroidered cloth guard!" ”
Yang Ge: "As the head of the head of the right office, I can mobilize a few small flags and embroidered guards, it's normal, right?" ”
Liu Mang: "Is this normal?" ”
Yange: "Isn't this normal?" ”
Liu Mang: "This is not normal! ”
Yang Ge: "If I say normal, he will be normal!" ”
Liu Mang was too lazy to talk to him, and after taking two sips of wine, he suddenly smiled and said, "The inn is all trivial...... You said that you are so angry now, can my brother's martial arts hall follow you to get some light? ”
Yang Gehao rolled his eyes at him: "It's all at this time, are you still thinking about your broken martial arts hall?" ”
At the right time, Xiao Huang stood at the door of the stove house and shouted.
Yang Ge hurriedly got up and walked quickly towards the stove house...... The rice is going to be mushy!
Liu Mang followed his footsteps: "Why did you break the martial arts hall?" My brother has brought out two apprentices who have practiced Xiaocheng this year, and when they are put on the rivers and lakes, they are all good at mixing up the name, right? ”
Yang Ge entered the stove house, first filled the big iron pot that was about to dry up with a little water, and then withdrew the firewood in the stove: "What do you want to do, just say it!" ”
Liu Mang rubbed his hands: "The apprentices have learned martial arts, so they must have a way to eat, right?" You can't all go out and rob houses, can you? Isn't that taking out your Yang Erlang's face and throwing it away......"
Yang Ge took out a big bowl of rice and handed it to him: "Hurry up, talk about something." ”
Liu Mang took the rice bowl and smiled all over his face: "Aren't you on good terms with Lianwu?" Do you think our martial arts hall can pick up some loose work from the chain dock to eat? ”
Yang Ge served Xiao Huang with food in his hand, and replied with a lack of interest: "There is a steward named Wu Eryong at the dock, if you go back and invite him to dinner, just say that you are my brother, and if you don't ask too much, he will definitely sell you this face...... But you don't want anyone to get it over there, if I hear someone doing nonsense and bullying the market under the banner of our brothers, you can't do it, I can go down! ”
Liu Mang nodded again and again: "Brother can save ...... Hey, eat so early? I've only had a few sips of that wine! ”
Yang Ge: "What kind of wine do your brothers drink, eat and eat." ”
Liu Mang: "You rice bucket!" ”
Yang Ge: "Give me back the job!" ”
Liu Mang: "Don't pay it back!" ”
The two of them came out of the stove house with a rice bowl as big as their faces, and took a big bite of rice with cooked rice soup.
"About the inn, my brother will discuss it with the old man when he goes back today, and it is not a big problem."
Liu Mang said vaguely: "The old man is almost gone, I am not interested in the inn, I will hand it over to you, we can both rest assured ......"
Yang Ge replied: "You pick up what you can say and tell the old shopkeeper, don't say a word that you can't say, I will only help your old Liu family take care of the inn for a period of time, and I will definitely return it to your old Liu family in the future." ”
"What else!"
Liu Mang waved his chopsticks and said loudly with pride: "I don't want my children to be innkeepers in the future, if they want to do it, they should also be the master of the young hall, how majestic!" ”
"Tsk."
Yang Ge picked a piece of pork head meat with chopsticks, and said softly in a weird manner: "Loser!" ”
Without waiting for Liu Mang to return his mouth, he said again: "I won't go back to the inn first, I will go down to Jiangnan in a few days, I will go out, and no one will stare at you anymore, you can help with the business procedures of the inn, the inn is not in your name, and the friendship between our two families on the surface will be cut clean......"
Liu Mang raised his head and looked at him stunned: "Down to Jiangnan?" Why are you going to Jiangnan again? ”
Yang Ge wrote lightly: "There is a gang of Dongying little devils who want to make trouble on the coast, I will send them back to their hometown......"
"Great!"
Liu Mang's eyes lit up, he slapped his chopsticks and grabbed his forearm and said loudly: "This day is only fucking strong, bring your brother, bring your brother with you!" ”
The chopsticks in Yang Ge's hand were lightly picked, and a three-inch knife gushed out from the chopsticks: "If you can catch this chopstick, I'll take you with me." ”
Liu Mang: (╯°Д°)╯(┻━┻
