As soon as the Silky Mask Man said this, Li Bu and Wang Xun looked at each other and nodded to each other.

Li Bu was moved to tears in a moment, and he and Wang Xun turned over and knelt down: "Since Brother Chai said so, our brother is willing to go to the soup to find a thousand-year-old ginseng." Even if you die, you have to pull Wei Lun to die together. But driven by the eldest brother, he will never back down. ”

The Chai Department helped them up and asked Li Yan to quickly find a doctor to treat Li Bu's injuries. It's a pity that Li Bu has lost his left ear and right thumb since then. After the doctor bandaged Li Bu, it was already dark. The Diesel Affairs Department greeted everyone and went to Xinfeng County to eat and drink.

Li Jiling led the ten horsemen back to the Taigong Temple in Chenjia Village. Gan Ji also settled his ten horsemen here and ate at the Taigong Temple in Lijia Village.

Pan Lang, Chen Rui, Li Bu, Wang Xun, and Li Yan followed the Chai Department, rode horses, and arrived in Xinfeng County, where they entered a single room in this Xinfeng wine shop at will, and eight people were sitting around a table.

After five flavors of food and three rounds of wine, Li Bu complimented the firewood department vigorously, and admired it so much. His actions and contrasts shook Li Yan and everyone present. Li Yan couldn't help but ask about the past of the Diesel Bureau, and the Diesel Department had to tell the truth.

He once won the six-rank order at the age of eighteen, and married the youngest daughter of the Duke of Liangguo at the age of nineteen, that is, Li Ji's sister Li Jun. Later, under the door of Lienanzhou, a wealthy merchant of Bohai State, he has been engaged in the sale of treasures of Bohai State.

Seven years ago, I learned that the Son of Heaven was looking for a thousand-year-old ginseng for Concubine Wang De, and I began to pay attention to this matter. This year, I joined forces with the ginseng picker Wu Benzhi, and finally dug up this thousand-year-old ginseng, so I came to Chang'an to offer treasure. How do you know that you were targeted by Qiu Shiliang and Wei Lun, and if you don't take revenge, you will become a trafficker in vain.

After listening to the experience, everyone felt like a myth and legend for getting this thousand-year-old ginseng, and they were extremely respectful.

Chen Rui whispered a few words to Li Yan, stood up, and saluted Chai with a fist: "Brother Chai is a god dealer in the world, and this time we are just eight brothers gathering for righteousness, is it not the will of heaven? Why not take advantage of this August Guixiang occasion to become brothers." In the near distance, it is said that it is for the millennium old ginseng to contribute to the work, and in the distance, it is said that it is conspiring for the blessing of children and grandchildren. ”

As soon as Chen Rui finished speaking, everyone was about to echo in unison, when the door of Xinfeng Liquor Store was suddenly slammed open, and a god-like hero flew in.

I saw that he was covered in blood, his body was eight feet three inches long, he had a fifty-four pound serrated knife in his hand, he was wearing a five-grade shallow scarlet robe, he was tied with a ten-fold gold belt, and his cloak was scattered.

The firewood department quickly came over and helped him up, looking at his body, there were no big scars, he must be tired.

What do people who are too tired need most? Needless to say, the firewood department hurriedly shouted: "The lord brings water." ”

The owner of the liquor shop hurriedly brought a bowl of cold boiled water, and the firewood department put his knees on the good man, held his shoulder with one hand, and fed him water with the other.

After a while, the hero woke up slowly, opened his eyes and saw a big hero, a six-grade costume, and wanted to get up, but his whole body was soft, so he had to say ashamedly: "Feng Xiannan Song Kai thanks the general for saving his life." ”

It turned out that his name was Song Kai, the founder of Fengxian County, Jingzhao Prefecture.

Chai said with a smile: "A certain is a cavalry lieutenant Chai Department, Song Nan is self-helping, how dare Chai accept thanks." ”

Li Ji and the others also came over, helped Song Kai up with all hands and feet, and put his serrated knife in the corner of the wall. He also asked the owner to bring a Taishi chair and told him to sit down with the people present and talk.

Chai asked him: "Why did Song Nan become like this, and what happened to him?"

Song Kai said hatefully: "My uncle caught an old man who was a smuggler of ginseng in the Bohai Kingdom, saying that he had a thousand-year-old ginseng in his hand, so he hid him in my house. ”

The firewood department and everyone were surprised. The Chai Department hurriedly asked, "What is the old man's name, and who is your uncle?"

When Song Kai saw that they were so urgent, he immediately became suspicious: "Why did General Chai ask like this?"

The Chai Department did not hide it, and told him a series of incidents caused by the thousand-year-old ginseng directly.

Song Kai suddenly laughed: "That's good, Wu Lao is still living in my mansion." I was afraid of getting into trouble, so I went to the Shence Army to question my uncle, but he was beaten out of the door and didn't want me to say half a word. If I had to shout, he sent more than a dozen lieutenants to drive me all the way out of Chang'an and get here. ”

Li Bu was greatly surprised, and couldn't help blurting out: "Uncle Song Nan is not Wei Lun?"

Everyone also knew it, but no one dared to ask, and when they heard Li Bu ask like this, they all stared at Song Kai in surprise. Edi Niang, is Li Bu right to ask? Are they in this relationship?

"My uncle is the marquis Wei Zhongqing, and my mother Wei Qi, and the names of their brothers and sisters are all next to the skein. Song Kai was amazed and tried to solve the mystery as much as possible.

When he heard the name Wei Qi, why was he so familiar with it? Suddenly he remembered that the biological mother of Chen Guo, the seventh brother of Jianglingzi, among the Eight Swords of the Song of Chaoge! God, of course, Wei Lun was also Chen Guo's uncle. Song Kai is undoubtedly the child of Wei Qi's remarried husband Song Chen, and Wei Lun is of course his uncle.

This, what the hell, could it be that this thousand-year-old ginseng has really cultivated into an immortal family? It is unbelievable that so many heroes have gathered.

So, his former fiancée Yang Rong should also be in his house?

But I can't say this for the time being, I married Li Jun, and this pops up again, don't cause Li Ji's disgust and misunderstanding, they are half-sisters and brothers after all. It really makes Li Ji angry, and it's strange if he doesn't fight with Lao Tzu.

At this moment, the Chai Department is really crying and laughing, and I don't know where to start, and I am stunned there.

Wang Xun was happy, and slapped the firewood office suddenly: "Big brother, let's marry Song Nan as nine brothers, specially designed for the thousand-year-old ginseng to escort the car, and achieve a legend of ginseng protection." ”

The Chai Department was reminded by Wang Xun, and immediately shouted: "Song Nan is above, I was just about to marry for this thousand-year-old ginseng, and it happened that you came in, and now we will join the righteousness together, I don't know if you can agree?"

Song Kai stood up indignantly, raised his arms and shouted: "It's very good, I'm afraid that the strength is weak, let's tie up, I think my uncle still dares to do it?" ”

Everyone laughed, and the firewood department wanted to call the owner to come over, explain the meaning, and put incense in the back hall to worship.

Gan Ji got up and shouted: "Since it is such a happy marriage, how can it be so hasty, we must take advantage of the first half of the morning, between noon, to do a serious ceremony." Tomorrow I will take a turn off and come to my house to pray. ”

The nine of them agreed together, just drink booze tonight, and tomorrow they will line up the eight characters of Nian Geng, mother, wife and daughter, place of origin, etc., and worship seriously.

That night, everyone slept at Li Yan's house in Lijia Village after drinking.

Early the next morning, they all mounted their horses, wielded their respective blades, and rushed to the Ganji Mansion.

His family lives in Yongle Fang in Chang'an City, which is also the mansion of the royal gift. It must be his father's high-ranking official, otherwise, it would not be the turn of the Imperial Mansion. When I got closer, I looked at the door: Shen Guogong.

Entering the middle hall, a woman came out, wearing a dingdong, graceful and luxurious. After taking a closer look, he was immediately at a loss for what to do, turned over and bowed down, and kowtowed. Who is this woman?

It was Xue Yan and Xue Jinping, the world-famous female generals, who were famous all over the world! Edi Niang, he married Gantz Mountain, this old Gan must have been the envoy of the festival, otherwise, how could he become a national prince?

Gantz Mountain, with a single name and a single name, is fifty-six years old.

Now he is the envoy of the Loyal Army Festival (Chen Xu Jiedu), governing Xuzhou. The right servant of the school is shot, Shen Guogong, and his wife Xue Yan is the wife of Yiyang County. The fief is in Shenzhou, and Yiyang County is another name for Shenzhou.

The Chai Department couldn't help but think of when he was a child in the Yicheng Army, Xue Yan's children Gu Liangtai and Gu Liangkang were about the same age as their own children, and they made trouble all day long. Xue Yan is very close to the children, just like her own children.

This Gan Ji was born to Xue Yan and Gantsshan, and he is now 16 years old. Is it not true that at the age of sixteen, when Gantzshan was named the Duke of Shenguo, he naturally wanted to be crowned Ganji, but this is still a low seal. Often in the festivals of other towns, there are many people who are teenagers and marquises.

Although Gan Ji was only sixteen years old, he actually went into battle to kill, and he started at the age of fourteen. In the middle and late Tang Dynasty, it was customary that all the festivals in other towns must have brothers or sons-in-law into the court as hostages, and of course the feudal officials are very large.

Xue Yan originally had a title of his own, and he was a famous general loyal to the imperial court. Therefore, for her family, the Son of Heaven has no hostage requirements.

Xue Yan, the wife of Yiyang County, was so excited when she saw that Director Chai had become so big, and she couldn't help but burst into tears. Pick up the child, take it into his arms, ask for warmth, endlessly.

I heard that the firewood department and Wu Benzhi dug up the thousand-year-old ginseng in the Bohai country, and for various reasons, the children wanted to worship, and they were so happy that they couldn't keep their mouths together. Ask the housekeeper to set up offerings, incense tables, and wine banquets.

The nine brothers were established, Song Kai took the pen and paper, wrote down the Geng post one by one, and the draft alliance was ordered, and everyone saw it. There is no difference, Song Kai copied nine copies of the alliance, and each person signed his name on the nine copies and pressed his handprint. Collect one copy of each to commemorate it.

According to the proposal of the Chai, according to the tablet format seen in the Jiehuang Mansion in Heyang that year, the five major peddlers who were born in the Yicheng Army were written as the main gods of the Jieyi worship.

Chen Zhe of the five major gods is the master, Qi Diaohui is the master, Wangyun, Fan Dan, and Changdu are the masters, the second masters, and the third masters.

The sandalwood is lit, arranged in three rows according to the size, and bows down together, the eldest brother Chai Department recites, and everyone shouts together: "The five major gods are above, tell the master Chen Bo, the god of Chengni and the god of the master, and the master and mother of the spring wine seller and the god of lacquer carving, we are willing to become brothers, kill cowardice, spread credit, carry forward the spirit of the peddlers, and benefit the people of Li." If there is any betrayal, it will be dealt with by the gods. ”

Then, the small one worships the big one, and the ceremony is completed. helped Xue Yan to the upper seat and bowed to his stepmother in turn. Each of their parents is a stepfather and mother, and they see each other on different days and worship one after another.

According to the eldest brother Chai Agency, it is known as the "Nine Envoys of Chongxin". From oldest to youngest, they are:

The nine brothers were married, and Xue Yan, the wife of Yiyang County, personally accompanied them, and the Gan Mansion was very lively.

After a day of feasting, the brothers carefully understood their respective family origins, and the more they talked, the closer they became.

After full deliberation, I thought that today's righteous banquet was over, and immediately went to Feng Xiannan Song Kai's house to meet with Wu Benzhi, and discussed how to get back the thousand-year-old ginseng from Wei Lun's hands, and how to offer treasures?
