Chapter 10: The Heroes of the Green Forest Return to the Heart (1)
Everyone left the Shaolin Temple and went north until they reached the Yellow River. Everyone looked at the Yellow River rolling eastward, rushing to the east, surging waves. At this time, the southeast wind is blowing tightly, and the undulating river water is surging and rushing, surging and turbid, mighty and mighty, pouring for thousands of miles, and the momentum is magnificent. Wang Qianyuan sighed: "Dare to ask if there can be such an imposing river under the sky?" Many people here also saw the Yellow River for the first time, and they also sighed.
Huo Gongcheng said: "Brothers, you have to be careful when you get here, there will be robbers in this area, there are bandits in the mountains, there are water gangs on the river, and there are really a lot of robbers in the Yellow River." Ren Bujian said with a smile: "We have so many brothers here, all of them are first-class heroes, and we are afraid that a few robbers will not succeed." Yang Xuanwei said: "Yes, my Yang family and Tongxuanzhuang Gong family are from this business." Huo Gongcheng said with a smile: "The robbers in the north and the robbers in the south are still a little bit of something else." Gong Tianrui smiled at Yang Xuan and said, "Old Yang, it's time for us southern robbers to see the northern robbers, and exchange experiences with others." The crowd laughed.
When everyone looked to the riverbank, they saw five big boats, which were really big ships in the area of the Yellow River. A group of businessmen-like people carried goods to the ship, and Wang Qianyuan said: "It seems that they are going to Zhili to do business." Huo Gongcheng shook his head and said, "They are not ordinary businessmen, they are the Cao Gang. ”
Ren Bujian said: "Eh, if we want to cross the river, so many of us don't have a boat, so it's a bit troublesome." Chen Zhixiang said: "Go over and ask these people to see if they can take us across the river." Wang Qianyuan said: "There are too many people on our side, even if people are willing, they can't carry so many of us." ”
At this moment, dozens of people rushed down the hillside next to them, armed with knives and guns. Ren Bujian looked at it and said: "There are really robbers, and now it's lively again." "Everyone held on to their fellows and prepared to meet the enemy. Unexpectedly, this gang of robbers rushed down the mountain, as if they didn't see Ren Buru, and ran straight towards the Cao Gang. The gang of robbers surrounded the Cao Gang on the bank of the Yellow River, and the Cao Gang hurriedly picked up the guys.
At this time, a forty or fifty-year-old man came out of the Cao Gang, this person was burly, with a big black cloak tied around his neck, this person stepped forward and said: "Jiang Datong, the big boss of the Cao Gang, has seen all the brothers, this is polite, dare to ask this noble surname." There was also a man in his forties who came out of this gang of robbers, with a beard, wearing a jet-black short suit, and carrying a steel knife under his waist, this man arched his hand and said: "I am the master of the river beach village, and my surname is Lin, and the brothers have been short of money recently, and I also hope that the relief point of the Jiang Da family can fill the stomachs of the brothers." ”
Jiang Datong said with a smile: "Hey, Jiang is the name of the lord of Lin Dazhai who has heard it for a long time. The lord of the forest village received the tribute from my Cao Gang here, the lord of the forest village looks up to Jiang too much, these years, we have no oil and water on the boat, and the brothers have not eaten a meal, which is very shabby. ”
The people on Ren Buji's side looked at the two gangs, and Yang Xuanwei said: "It turned out to be the master of the forest village of Hetan Village. Ren Buru asked, "Do you know?" Yang Xuanwei shook his head and said, "I don't have any personal dealings with him, but I've just heard of it." Don't underestimate this river beach village, the business of this forest village owner is all over Henan, and it is all black and white in Henan. Many caravans, dart boards, and licensed goods are his business. To the north to do Zhili, to the south to our two lakes area. ”
Huo Gongcheng smiled and said: "This is interesting, as far as I know, this Cao Gang and Hetan Village have no friendship, both sides are polite, if no one refuses to give in, they will fight." Chen Zhixiang asked: "Then what should we do?" Wang Qianyuan said: "Of course, we are looking for an opportunity to help the Cao Gang deal with the river beach village, and if we repel the river beach village, the Cao Gang will naturally help us cross the river." ”
Chen Zhixiang asked, "When are we going to do it?" Ren Buji smiled: "What's the hurry, let's see the excitement first, and it's not too late to make a move after seeing it." Chen Zhixiang asked: "Then what if there is a death on these two sides?" Huo Gongcheng smiled: "Don't worry, no, it's just for some money, if someone dies, the two gangs will make an enmity, and it's not good for anyone." ”
Looking over there again, the master of Lin Zhai said: "Since this is the case, then let's compare and compare according to the rules of the green forest, if Lin is lucky enough to win the Jiang Da master's one and a half moves, I hope that the Jiang Da master will be generous." Jiang Datong smiled: "Okay, then let's have fun." ”
Lin Zhai looked at Jiang Datong, and suddenly stepped forward and punched, this punch was very strong. Jiang Datong saw this punch, and his right palm came out accordingly. saw the fists collide, and the muscles on the arms of the two were twisted. Ren Bujian looked at the two and said: "This man who walks the rivers and lakes looks like he has decades of external strength, and he has a lot of kung fu." ”
Looking at the two again, Jiang Datong's left palm stretched out from under his right arm and hit the armpit and chest of the forest village master. The master of the forest village blocked sideways, Jiang Datong immediately raised his leg and kicked at the master of the forest village, and the master of the forest village stretched out his arm to block and hit the situation. Jiang Datong took two steps backwards, his body went up, and his feet landed on the deck of the big ship. The main forest village followed and stepped on the deck, and the two of them went back and forth on the deck.
At this time, the lord of the forest village said: "Be careful with the knife. With that, he pulled out the steel knife under his waist and slashed at Jiang Datong. Jiang Datong's figure flashed, and he picked up a big bamboo stick for supporting the boat, and Jiang Datong's bamboo stick poked at the master of the forest village. The master of the forest village took the knife and took a square, Jiang Datong continued to go down a little, and the master of the forest village stepped back sideways. Jiang Datong struck upward, and the knife of the master of the forest village went down, and the tip of the knife rushed forward. Jiang Datong swept left and right, and the main body of Lin Zhai leaned back, and the blade was erased left and right. Jiang Datong raised the bamboo stick and slashed downward, and the knife of the forest village master went up, and he saw that Jiang Datong's bamboo stick was broken into two.
Everyone looked at Jiang Datong's moves, and it was by no means a sudden response, but a stick technique that had been practiced for many years. The poke, point, pick, sweep, and split just now are all stick moves that are played just right.
The two fought without a win, and everyone on the other side of the river beach village was a little anxious when they saw that the owner of the forest village had not been able to win Jiang Datong for a long time. Someone on the side of Hetanzhai suddenly said, "Brothers, do it." The lord of the forest village turned around and said, "Don't mess around." "This is going to stop everyone, but so many big men can still stop it, and the people on both sides will fight.
The people on Ren Buji's side looked at the Cao Gang with a lot fewer people than from Hetanzhai, for fear that the Cao Gang would suffer. Wang Qianyuan said: "Do it. The crowd hurriedly got up and rushed over. Jiang Datong and Lin Zhai only found out about these people now, and the two of them didn't know who these people were coming for, and they were very vigilant. I saw Ren Bujian and others rushing into the crowd of the river beach village and fighting.
The lord of Lin Zhai pointed to Jiang Datong and said, "The surname is Jiang, you still have an ambush." Jiang Datong said with a puzzled face: "Why don't I recognize these people - hey, dare to ask which hero it is, and tell me my name." Ren Bujian said: "Let's stop talking nonsense first, let's clean up these bandits." Jiang Datong laughed and said: "The surname Lin, it seems that you have been doing a lot of evil here for a long time, which has aroused the anger of the people, brothers, call me." ”
Ren Bujian Wang Qianyuan injured many people in Hetan Village one after another, Jiang Datong and Lin Zhai were surprised to see that this group of people were very good at martial arts, I don't know where such a group of people came from. Seeing that there were suddenly so many helpers on the Cao Gang's side, and there was no shortage of strong martial artists, it would not be cheap to fight hard like this, so he pointed to Jiang Datong and said: "The surname Jiang, you don't come according to the rules of the rivers and lakes, ambush the helpers, give us a knife in the back, we have settled this beam, Jiang Datong, you wait, we are not done with this matter." After that, I saw that the lord of the forest village turned around and ran away with people.
Jiang Datong turned around and clasped his fists and said to everyone: "Jiang Datong, the big boss of the Cao Gang, thank you for your help, dare to ask your young heroes?" Jiang Datong said with a smile: "I have long heard of the great names of all the young heroes, and when I saw them today, they were all young heroes." Today, you helped me Cao Gang to repel the river beach village, and I, Jiang Datong, thank you here. ”
Wang Qianyuan said: "Jiang Da doesn't need to be polite, but I have something to ask for now." Jiang Datong said: "Prince Wang, please speak, Jiang will do his best." Wang Qianyuan said: "We want to cross the Yellow River, but there are many people and there are no boats, and we want to ask the master of Jiang to give us a few places to cross the river on the boat." Jiang Datong said with a smile: "What should I be, don't be so polite about this little thing, you young heroes and get on the boat." Everyone said, "Thank you Jiang Da for being in charge." ”
Everyone followed Jiang Datong to the boat, Jiang Datong ordered his subordinates to support the boat, and everyone sailed north against the rapid flow of the Yellow River. Everyone worked hard to support the boat, and with the force of the southeast wind, Jiang Datong opened his throat and shouted the trumpet to everyone, and everyone shouted together. Although the river is fast, the strength of the people is getting stronger and stronger.
Ren Bujian asked: "Jiang Da is in charge, you should be the old rivers and lakes in the Yellow River area, right?" Jiang Datong said: "Jiang and the brothers of the Cao Gang have been walking on both sides of the Yellow River for decades, not to mention whether it is an old river and lake, and the people here can't know more about the water here." Wang Qianyuan said: "I heard that there are many green forests in this area, and there are many gangs. Jiang Datong said: "Yes, the people who patrol the river to transport goods are robbing houses and houses, on both sides of the Yellow River in Henan and Zhili, whether they are running on the shore or swimming in the river, there are three or four big gangs, and there are no less than dozens of small gangs. Jiang Datong looked at everyone and smiled: "The environment on both sides of the Yellow River is like the Yellow River, the water is very deep." ”
At this time, there was a killing shout behind them, and everyone looked back to see that more than a dozen small boats rushed to this side. Ren Bujian said: "These bandits are really stubborn, they have to catch up." Jiang Datong said to his subordinates: "Brothers, copy guys." Everyone hurriedly prepared.
The master of Lin Zhai said: "Jiang Da is in charge, we meet again." Jiang Datong said with a smile: "I said surnamed Lin, we haven't won or lost on the ground, but on the water ability, how can you be the opponent of my Cao Gang." The lord of Lin Zhai said: "I'm not interested in comparing with you now, as long as you hand over the few people just now, we will settle the matter." The people on Ren Buru's side hurriedly stepped forward after hearing this, Wang Qianyuan and Ren Bujian were just about to say something, Jiang Datong stopped everyone, Jiang Datong turned to the Lin Zhai Lord and smiled: "If the Lin Zhai Lord wants someone, he will pass my pass first." ”
As soon as the people on both sides were about to make a move, everyone turned back and rushed upstream to look, and saw a big boat and more than a dozen small boats coming downstream, and the big boat hung a banner with the words "Yellow River Gang" written on it.
