Chapter 124: Hiding from the sky and crossing the sea

Zhang Jianfeng entered the Giant Whale Gang at night and was tied up in Dazhai by the minions patrolling the lake, and Yu Sanjian caught Zhang Jianfeng, and he was about to be pushed out and cut without saying a word. Ma Wanli thought that Yu San's matter was inappropriate, and killed people for no reason, which was not only unconvincing, but also made fellow people laugh. So he ordered his minions to escort Zhang Jianfeng back and ask him why he had infiltrated the Giant Whale Gang late at night.

Zhang Jianfeng shrugged his shoulders, rolled his eyes up, and looked at Ma Wanli and Yu San with disdain, Yu San made him arrogant and arrogant, and he was about to teach him a lesson when he got up, but he was stopped by Ma Wanli. Zhang Jianfeng pouted and said, "If I hadn't deliberately tied my hands and captured, how could I be helped by those shrimp soldiers and crab generals?"

Ma Wanli thought about it carefully and felt that although Zhang Jianfei's words were frivolous, what he said was the truth. Therefore, he was still kind and pleasant, and asked Zhang Jianfeng about the purpose of this trip. Zhang Jianfeng told Ma Wanli that the imperial court would soon send a large army to encircle and suppress the Giant Whale Gang, and he came to report to them.

Yu San listened to Zhang Jianfeng's words, but he snorted lightly, he wouldn't believe Zhang Jianfeng's nonsense. Zhang Jianfeng immediately untied his clothes, and Ma Wanli saw a pitch-black palm print on his lower abdomen, and a look of shock suddenly appeared on his face. Zhang Jianfeng took off his clothes and told the two that he was injured by Tian Ji's thousand-mile soul chasing palm.

Ma Wanli has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and he has heard a little about the soul chasing palm for thousands of miles, he knows that the palm injury will occur when the moon is full, and the person who is in the palm will have unbearable colic pain in the abdomen, just like turning over the river and the sea, if there is no antidote, he will inevitably die of intestinal rot.

Zhang Jianfeng hugged his fist at Ma Wanli and said: "The seniors are well-informed, and the younger ones are the thousand-mile soul chaser. I'm risking my life this time, so you should believe in my sincerity. ”

Yu San thought that this was Zhang Jianfeng's bitter ploy, and after Zhang Jianfeng heard it, he threw a bundle of rope from his arms. He angrily told Ma Wanli that if he didn't believe him, he could tie him up and see if the court would send troops at that time. Ma Wanli listened, grinned and walked up to Zhang Jianfeng, he leaned over to pick up the rope and handed him to Zhang Jianfeng. His move made Zhang Jianfeng feel flattered, and Zhang Jianfeng saluted Ma Wanli again.

After Ma Wanli relieved his doubts, he entertained Zhang Jianfeng with good wine and food, and arranged a comfortable place for him to live. Yu San took a sip of stuffy wine and left the table in a negative mood. Ma Wanli continued to push the cup with Zhang Jianfeng to change the cup and drink freely. When the wine was over, Ma Wanli instructed the two minions to take care of Zhang Jianfeng. Zhang Jianfeng was not crazy, he knew that the two people sent by Ma Wanli were nominally to take care of, but in fact they were secretly spying. He opened his eyes slightly, wiped his mouth and smiled at Ma Wanli, and staggered back to the bedroom with the support of the two minions.

After lying on the bed, Zhang Jianfeng snored like thunder, immersed in Zhuang Shengxiao's dream. The two minions pushed him, and Zhang Jianfeng turned around and rolled sideways into the bed. The minions smiled at each other, closed the door and went out. Shrimp called the two of them softly to his side,

The two of them said to the shrimp: "I have slept like dead pigs." Shrimp nodded and told the two of them to take a look at this person.

The minion whispered back, and Shrimp left.

After the shrimp left, two black shadows quietly came behind the minions, they covered the minions' necks, and pulled back hard, and the minions died of despair. One of them then pushed the door open, leaving two minions to dispose of the body and get back to its original position. This person came to Zhang Jianfeng, raised his palm and slapped it towards his front door. Zhang Jianfeng moved when he heard the wind, and with a move the carp stood up, and his hand as strong as iron tongs fiercely strangled the wrist of the sneak attacker.

The two looked at each other, and the sneak attacker sneered. Zhang Jianfeng withdrew his hand and hugged his fist at this person. It turned out that it was none other than Liu Xiong, who plundered the grain ship, who secretly entered Zhang Jianfeng's house. Zhang Jianfeng told Liu Xiong that Liu Tianhe of the military department would soon send a large army to encircle and suppress him, and he could be used to get rid of Ma Wanli and Yu San when the time came.

Liu Xiong sat down in front of Zhang Jianfeng, clenched his fists and breathed fire, and he said to Zhang Jianfeng: "Don't make wishful thinking, Ma Wanli's nephew Yu San, who has received Liu Tianhe's favor, I think the two families will stop fighting this time." ”

Zhang Jianfeng was assigned by Tian Ji to assist Cao Qincheng, but he never thought that Liu Tianhe would have such an unusual relationship with the bandit Caokou. Zhang Jianfeng asked Liu Xiong where he heard the news.

Liu Xiong recounted in detail the matter of his plundering of grain ships in Taihu Lake and the abduction of Liu Tianhe's son Liu Jie. After Zhang Jianfeng listened, he told Liu Xiong that he should let Liu Jie go. Liu Xiong saw that Zhang Jianfeng not only did not help him, but also instigated him to let go of the enemy, and a nameless karma surged up in his heart, and his face became angry.

Zhang Jianfeng grinned, he reached out and grabbed Liu Xiong's sleeve, signaling him to be calm. After Liu Xiong sat down, after Zhang Jianfeng whispered in his ear, Liu Xiong swept away the clouds on his face, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. After the plan was agreed, Liu Xiong came to Ma Wanli. Ma Wanli was deeply surprised by his late-night visit, Liu Xiong first blamed himself, and Ma Wanli felt even more inexplicable when he heard his marginal words. Liu Xiong told Ma Wanli about his intention to let Liu Jie escape.

Ma Wanli opened his big eyes and looked Liu Xiong up and down, Liu Jie saw Ma Wanli's doubts about himself from his eyes. Liu Xiong was not in a hurry, and told Ma Wanli the reason why he wanted to let Liu Jie go. Ma Wanli was very happy to see that Liu Xiong could abandon personal enmity and take into account the morality of the rivers and lakes. So Ma Wanli decided to send someone to send Liu Jie out of the water village early the next morning.

But Liu Xiong thought that Ma Wanli's plan was improper, and sending Liu Zhuo to go late at night could cover up everyone's eyes and ears, and once someone asked, he could also use negligence to prevent it, causing the prisoner to escape and prevaricate. On the other hand, it can also let Liu Shangshu see our sincerity, and his son will return safely, and he may be able to turn the war into a jade silk and avoid a bloody battle.

Liu Xiong's words were reasonable, and Ma Wanli couldn't find any reason to refute it, so he asked Liu Xiong to prepare dry food and send Liu Jie out with a clipper starry night. Liu Xiong stunned the prisoner and opened the prison door. Liu Jie saw that it was Liu Xiong, and his knees were paralyzed with fright. Liu Xiong told him not to make a noise, he was here to save him. Liu Jie is like falling into the clouds, obviously Liu Xiong's attitude turns 180 degrees, which makes him very uncomfortable. Seeing that his eyes were glazed, Liu Xiong reached out and dragged him out of the cell.

After the two got on the boat, Liu Xiong handed the prepared dry food to Liu Jie. He said to Liu Jie: "Son, leave quickly, otherwise Ma Wanli and Yu San will use you as a bargaining chip to threaten your father." Liu Jie thanked Liu Xiong again and again, and at this time, a tentay boat was holding the fishing fire and galloping towards them.

Liu Xiong looked at the bow of the boat, and was so anxious that he turned around. Liu Jie didn't know what was going on, so he hurriedly asked Liu Xiong why he was panicking? Liu Xiong told Liu Jie that it was Zhang Jianfeng who brought someone to stop him. Although his face was on fire, the minions were still drawing slowly, and Liu Gongzi was still inexperienced in the rivers and lakes, so he didn't even find this obvious flaw.

The two boats refused, Zhang Jianfeng flew and slapped Liu Jie's head, Liu Xiong shouted, making a move Qianjiang tide. After using both palms with sufficient strength, he suddenly pushed outward. Zhang Jianfeng retreated to the bow of the boat, and his body shook a few times. He took out another bead of fire from his bosom and threw it at Liu Xiong's boat. Suddenly, fireworks rose into the air, and a pungent smell made Liu Jie stagger.

Liu Xiong took out a white porcelain bottle from his waist and poured out two pills. He said to Liu Jie: "Son, take this pill quickly, otherwise the blood scorpion mist will kill you immediately." After that, Liu Xiong ate one himself. Liu Jie saw that Liu Xiong had also taken the medicine, so he tilted his head and swallowed the pill into his stomach.

Zhang Jianfeng was on the opposite boat, gritting his teeth and said: "Liu Xiong, you betrayed the gang leader, sooner or later, one day, I will break your body into ten thousand pieces." With resentment and anger, Zhang Jianfeng went back at night. The minion at the bow of the boat suddenly tilted and rolled over and fell into the water.

Liu Xiong sighed lightly, leaned over to pick up the boat pulp, and rowed towards the shore with Liu Jie. Liu Jie asked in a panicked tone, "This big brother, he was fine just now, why did he suddenly fall into the lake?"

Liu Xiong told him that because he had been hit by the blood scorpion mist, he only had two antidotes. Liu Jie glanced up at Liu Xiong, his heart full of infinite gratitude. Then he asked Liu Xiong why he wanted to save himself, and Liu Xiong said to him: "Ma Wanli killed his brother indiscriminately, and he wants to avenge him." ”

Liu Jie listened to Liu Xiong's cry, he clenched his fists and said, "Big brother, I escaped death this time, and I relied on you to help me." You just have to rest assured, after I go back, I will definitely say that my father will send troops as soon as possible to exterminate Ma Wanli and the Giant Whale Gang. ”

Liu Xiong was grateful, and kept thanking Liu Jie. Before you know it, the ship is already docked. Liu Jie ran home in embarrassment, and the old lady and the family would see that the son's face was full of mud and looked like a beggar, and they couldn't help but feel pity. Childe leaned down on his mother's knees and cried, and the generals were full of indignation, all shouting to avenge Childe.

The housekeeper Liu Hai thought that the son had returned safely and should tell the master this information, so as not to make him frightened. The old lady thought it was reasonable, she wrote a good letter, and ordered her family to hand over the book to Liu Shangshu in Beijing. Gongzi was in this calamity, but he was not angry with Liu Xiong, he thought that this was a ploy to hide from the world, and the people who really wanted to harm him were Ma Wanli and Yu San, two ungrateful people.

Therefore, Liu Jie asked his mother to write down his experience in the Giant Whale Gang in the letter, and after his father saw the letter, he would definitely raise troops to exterminate Ma Wanli, and then he could eliminate the hatred in his heart. After Cao Qincheng got Zhang Jianfeng's secret report, he learned that Liu Jie would not return to the camp to accept punishment, so he actually ran home to enjoy comfort. He sent someone to report to Wei Zhongxian with a book, and Wei Zhongxian took this "killer letter" and entered the palace to report to Xizong.

Wave after wave of unsettled, Wei Zhongxian repeatedly slandered, and Liu Shangshu seemed to be more auspicious.
