The plan is clumsy, and he sighs even more before and after. Li Wenyan and Master Shao De harbored evil intentions, and entertained Cui Ningxiu at the Hongmen Night Banquet, during the banquet, the two praised Cui Ningxiu to the fullest, and under the bewitchment of Huang Tang's flattery, Cui Ningxiu's expression was fluttering and forgetful.

On the second day, Cui Ningxiu gathered the generals, marched noisily, and slaughtered Funiu Mountain. There have already been minions entering the village to report to Chen Tianba. Chen Tianba skillfully arranged and carefully deployed, informed each village to stick to the gate, and sent capable minions to block the mountain path with wooden fences and thorns, and he led five hundred crossbowmen to ambush on both sides of the mountain rocks, waiting for Cui Ningxiu's arrival.

The Funiu Mountain is steep, and the Funiu Village is built against the mountain, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Cui Ningxiu came to the foot of the mountain, looked up, saw that the mountain was abrupt and towering, he had never had a saddle horse conquest career, he couldn't help but be timid, at this time the tooth general around him, joined the army, and flattered him, Cui Ningxiu pulled out his saber, and ordered the drum to attack the mountain.

Cui Ningxiu took the lead, shook her lips and puffed her tongue, and rushed forward like a fierce god. Chen Tianba's banner was unfurled, only to hear the sound of the trumpet cannon, the sound of killing, the wood, rolling stones, and rolling stones, pouring down, and the soldiers were so frightened that they ran away from the desert. The booming boulder was like a cloud surging over a wave, rushing straight to Cui Ningxiu, he abandoned the horse and retreated backwards.

Losing the first battle, Cui Ningxiu looked depressed, and cleaned up the remnants of the defeated army and returned to Yunxian. At this time, the county commander Li Wenyan and his master Shao De ordered the musicians in the house to play "Return to Victory" to celebrate Cui Ningxiu's triumph.

Cui Ningxiu glanced at Li Wenyan with sesame mung bean eyes, and shouted with a roar full of spittle: "Li County Order, what do you mean by this? This general lost his troops and lost the battle, haven't you heard and witnessed it? Playing this triumphant song, could it be that you deliberately tease this general?"

Li Wenyan patted the horse's hooves, only blaming himself for not doing things carefully enough, seeing Cui Ningxiu's dusty and smoky face, he should be able to predict the outcome of the battle. Cui Ningxiu stared at Li Wenyan with angry eyes, Li Wenyan saw the wind and turned the rudder, and said to Cui Ningxiu with a hippie smile: "General Cui, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, Liu Bang was defeated by Xiang Yu in the past, and the success of the battle of Qixia was not General Cui's improper command, but the thief Chen Tianba was too cunning. ”

When Cui Ningxiu heard this, he looked at Li Wenyan with crooked eyebrows and slanted eyes, and then he asked Li Wenyan in a tone full of suspicion: How did he know the name of the thief leader? Li Wenyan told Cui Ningxiu that Chen Tianba had robbed the prefecture and plundered the prefecture and killed the people, and he had confronted him several times, but all of them were in vain.

As soon as Li Wenyan said this, Cui Ningxiu's cloudy face was full of eyes, he pulled the sparse lock of rat whiskers under his chin, grinned and laughed: "What Master Li said is very right, the thief Chen Tianba is just a shrunken turtle who guards against danger." ”

Han Xin, the famous general of the Han Dynasty, secretly crossed Chen Cang on the plank road in the Ming Dynasty, and defeated the Qin general Zhang Han by surprise. Becoming famous in a war is a strategy. Cui Ningxiu didn't say that she didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, but she only pushed her success and failure to the outside world.

Li Wenyan tended to be inflammatory, and deeply agreed with Cui Ningxiu's outrageous words, but after a while, his face was gloomy again. He told Cui Ningxiu that Wei Chitose has high hopes for us, if we can't attack the city and pull out the village, Chitose will say something and lower our responsibilities, and we will all be unable to eat and walk around.

Cui Ningxiu scratched his ears and cheeks, jumped up and down, and his barren head was about to become a barren place, but he still pulled off a few hairs vigorously. It goes without saying that at this moment, he has been haunted by anxiety, and he, who has no master, stares at the round blister eyes, looking dazed.

He begged Li Wenyan, and Li Wenyan was also a second monk who was confused.

When the two of them were poor in donkey skills, Master Shao De rushed to his brain, his eyes rolled, and he thought of a plan. He said to Li Wenyan: "My lord, the thief Chen Tianba's old mother, who now lives in Suixian, is better than an adult to write an official document, on the grounds of persuading Chen Tianba to change his evil and return to the right, his mother will be earned into the county government, Chen Tianba will see his mother's handwriting, he will definitely go down the mountain to save his mother, and then he will throw himself into the net, and he will kill and kill at the disposal of adults." If he doesn't come, he will be convicted of harboring the head of the thief for his mother, and the adults will be a great achievement. ”

As soon as Shao De's plan came out, Li Wenyan and Cui Ningxiu couldn't help nodding, and after the plan was discussed, Li Wenyan immediately ordered Xue Wu, the head catcher, to take two catchers and go to Suixian County under the stars. After arriving at the Chen family in Suixian, Xue Wu and the three of them broke in menacingly, and Chen Tianlin, the younger brother of Chen Tianba, saw that the messenger was coming, and asked in a trembling tone: "Brother Cha, I don't know what business you have to go to my house?"

Xue Wu raised his kick and kicked the water basin under his feet into a splash, then turned the eyes of the dead fish, and said arrogantly, "Who are you Chen Tianba?"

Chen Tianlin leaned over and replied respectfully, "Chen Tianba is my elder brother. After listening to Chen Tianlin's words, Xue Wu grabbed him by the collar and said viciously: "Chen Tianba, that thief, is robbing the state capital and harassing the people outside, do you know it?"

Xue Wu's mouth was full of spittle, and the stars flew wildly, and he asked Chen Tianwen loudly. Chen Tianlin's face was as pale as dirt, and he told Xue Wu that he was a person who kept to himself, working all day long, at sunrise and sunset, and had never set half a step out of the village, and he didn't know anything about what his brother was doing outside.

Xue Wuyi pushed Chen Tianlin to his head, pointed at him and said: "I eat more salt than you walk, don't try to deceive me, Chen Tianba eats fragrant food and drinks spicy food outside, and he will not be happy after becoming the king of the mountain, how can he let you eat bran vegetables at home." Someone, search for me. ”

At the sound of an order, the two catchers entered the house like headless flies. They rummaged through boxes and cabinets, smashed pots and bowls, and made the Chen family a mess.

After some searching, the two catchers said to Xue Wu: "Xue Zhutou, nothing suspicious was found. Hearing this, Xue Wu smacked his lips and swallowed saliva into his throat from time to time. He thought that Chen Tianba, the leader of the thieves, would definitely bring valuable things home, and he could take advantage of the opportunity of this visit to fill his pocket, but it backfired. The thief didn't go empty, Xue Wu was unwilling, he rolled his evil eyes upward, and roared hoarsely at Chen Tianlin: "Come on, where did Chen Tianba hide the stolen goods?"

Chen Tianlin's eyes widened, and he looked at Xue Wu with frightened and confused eyes, Xue Wu spat on the ground, and he shouted wah-wah-wah: "I'll ask you, don't fight with me here, pretend to be deaf and dumb." ”

After a while, Chen Tianlin came to his senses, and still told Xue Wu in a cautious tone that Chen Tianba had only come back once the year before and had not heard from him so far.

"It's obsessive. Xue Wu secretly scolded in his heart, every time he went out on an errand, Xue Wu would find all kinds of reasons to coerce and intimidate the people and blackmail some silver taels. The people hated him to the core, and they all called him "Xue Yidao" behind his back. ”

Seeing that he couldn't get the silver taels, Xue Wu shifted his gaze to Chen Tianlin's old mother, and he said to Chen Tianwen: "Whether your words are true or false remains to be verified by this mission, if you are not honest and deceive with lies, don't blame me for being ruthless." "How can Xue Wu and Chen Tianlin have any friendship at all, and it is really brazen and self-deceiving to say this.

Chen Tianwen was resigned, nodding yes, Xue Wu asked him, where did his mother go? Chen Tianlin replied, and went to the back mountain to dig wild vegetables. Xue Wu glanced up at the sky, it was already three poles of the sun, he covered his eyes, and said to Chen Tianlin in an extremely impatient tone: "What are you doing here? Get your mother back for me, do you want Ben to catch his head, against the hot sun, here with you poor mushrooms?"

Chen Tianwen ran out of the courtyard in a hurry, and the two catchers saw him running away without a trace, and said to Xue Wu: "Xue Zhutou, if Chen Tianlin is gone, we will be empty." ”

Xue Wu closed his eyes and snorted in a nasal voice, and said to the two: "I ran to the monk, but I can't run to the temple." Chen Tianlin dared to steal and play tricks, and I was the first to do that old immortal. ”

The two of them looked at each other, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of their mouths.

After a long time, Chen Tianwen helped his mother and came back step by step. Xue Wu glanced at the catcher, and the two evil errands ran in front of Chen's mother, one pulling his arm and the other pulling his sleeve, which frightened the old man. However, the two of them didn't pay attention to it, and just shouted at her: "Hurry up, we Xue Zhutou still have important things to do." ”

Mother Chen staggered to Xue Wu's face, clasped her fists and said, "Xue Zhutou, you are in a hurry to summon the old woman, I don't know what the so-called matter?"

Xue Zhu raised his head and let out a loud fart, and then said unscrupulously: "Your eldest son Chen Tianba is doing nonsense outside, do you know the details?"

Mother Chen trembled, she shook her head again and again, Xue Wu grinned and scolded: "I don't know if I ask three questions, I don't know if I don't teach, it's my mother's fault." Before his words fell, a good thing quickly said: "Xue Zhutou, it is the fault of the father who does not raise it." ”

Xue Wuyuan's eyes were strange, and he said to the catcher: "Get out of the way, Chen Tianba lost his father when he was young, you still use old-fashioned clichés, what a hell." ”

Caught up in silence and obediently flashed aside. Xue Wu turned around and continued to yell at Chen's mother, he called the document in his hand and told Chen's mother that although Chen Tianba was a coward, as long as Chen Tianba was willing to recruit An, he could advise Li County to make no sense of blame. Chen's mother didn't know what to do, so she hurriedly knelt down to thank her. Xue Wu waved his hand at her and told her: "Li County Commander is worried about Chen Tianba's case, it is best to ask her to bend to the county government and make a statement to Li County Commander in person, so that the county order can rest assured." ”

Mother Chen nodded, Xue Wu tilted his head, and the two catchers comprehended, one left and one right, holding Mother Chen and about to go out. At this time, Chen Tianlin stepped forward and wanted to go together. Xue Wu

A pair of harrier eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he coldly told Chen Tianlin that he was honest and stayed at home.

His mother went and went back. Chen's mother burst into tears, holding Chen Tianlin's hands tightly with trembling hands, telling him to keep his home. After that, he followed Xue Wu away.

Looking at his mother's back, Chen Tianlin was stunned, and he felt a faint sense of uneasiness in his heart.
