On the banquet, Shui Ji wanted to call Hua Jiao to eat together. Looking around, I saw that the owners of the 36 islands were all men, and there were no women, and they were all people in the rivers and lakes, martial arts people, rude and arrogant, mixed with dragons and snakes, and Hua Jiao and a woman, if they came, they would be mixed with them, not to mention how inconvenient it was, in case the owner of the 36 islands suddenly made a difficulty, captured her, and wanted to coerce himself and others to be arrested, then how would it be good? Thinking of this, he secretly informed Liu Yuan, asked him to bring some food, sent it to his own room, handed it to Hua Jiao to eat, but did not let her come out and show her face.

Now seeing the moonlight, the water mark is happy in my heart, I feel something, and I suddenly think of Huajiao. Thinking of her beauty, my heart is warm, and I faintly feel affection, so I am not intoxicated, I am happy, and I think of the gentle bed. Seeing that it was indeed not early, and the major events had already been completed, I wanted to go to inspect the island again, but suddenly thought that I was not familiar with the geography of the environment on Xiaoyao Island, and I couldn't see clearly in the night, so I walked around blindly, which was quite inconvenient. In the middle of the night, the island lords had just surrendered and surrendered to themselves, and there was no need for this. After careful consideration, he thought about it again and again, and said to Feng Ping and the heroic five tigers: "Let's go back and rest." When they all saw them, they said, "Yes." He turned his head to the side and said to the people on the dock: "You are on duty tonight, and you have taken care of the ships, and if there is any change, report it immediately." "I was worried in my heart, I was afraid that Feng Ping would steal the boat and escape at night, so I was cautious just in case.

When the gang heard this, they said in unison, "Yes." ”

The water mark immediately turned around, took Feng Ping and the Hero Five Tigers up to the Ethereal Peak together, returned to the Ethereal Villa, and saw Liu Yuan standing outside the village, still not sleeping, so he asked him to take Feng Ping to the wing room to rest, and he and the Hero Five Tigers went back to the room and rested.

Liu Yuanshicai has been staying in the canteen, calling the family to be busy, washing dishes and chopsticks, wiping tables and sweeping the floor, and cleaning up the banquet in the hall until now. I had just eaten dinner, and I was just busy, and I ate it hastily with the leftovers. The cooking here stopped, and when I saw that Shui Ji and the others had been out for a long time and had not come back, I was worried about it, so I went out of Zhuangzi and wanted to go down the mountain to check it. I don't want to, just arrived outside the village, bumped into everyone head-on, and heard the water mark tell me to do something, so I took Feng Ping to his original wing room, sent it into the house, "squeak", closed the door, and instructed the two people outside the door to help the good people wait, so I was relieved to go back to rest.

Feng Ping entered the house, and when he had nothing to do, he lay down on the bed, covered his head and thought about his thoughts. His mind wanted to run away for a long time, but he thought that he was highly poisoned and didn't dare to run away. I thought that today I would take advantage of the large number of people, and they were all brothers in the gang, saying some words and gaining the upper hand. I don't want to, the water marks are resourceful, articulate, not only can not take advantage of the slightest advantage when I say what I say, but he is preempted everywhere, set his own words, and is blocked, and he is led by the nose, he can't help it at all, and his heart is hindered by poisoning, knowing that he is suffering a loss, but he also does not dare to do more tongues, and he has lost his life, so he has endured until now.

It was night, the weather was hot, Feng Ping was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. Thinking that the poison in his body had been resolved, he waited for a long time, but he did not see the residual poison attack, and he knew that there was no residual poison in his body, and his heart was already calm. When he was happy, a thought suddenly flashed in his heart, and he was about to find an opportunity to escape. With a slanted eye, looking out the window, through the moonlight, I saw two black shadows obliquely reflected in the house, my brows couldn't help frowning, and I said secretly: Those men have been guarding outside my house for three days, called serving, but they are actually surveillance, and I am stupid, somehow? In desperation, I had to shake my head and sigh, sigh, and think of some reasons to comfort myself in my heart, and said straightly: I want to think that back then, King Goujian of Yue had tried his courage and worked hard to make the country prosperous, and for more than 20 years, he finally overthrew the state of Wu and achieved the hegemony of the emperor. And today I am the deputy gang leader of the Taihu Gang, and I also serve as the owner of Xiaoyao Island, although the position is a small one, but I also have some real power, I am in trouble today, why can't I follow his example, Xu Tu slowly advances? The big husband can bend and stretch, I might as well endure for a while, and when the time is ripe in the future, I will regain the position of the gang, and it will not be too late to retaliate. When I made up my mind, my heart was stable, but it was hot, but I couldn't sleep for a while, and after thinking about it, I couldn't help but recall many things in the past.

It turned out that this Feng Ping was a person from Gusu in Wujun, born in a scholarly family, a wealthy family, familiar with the four books and five classics, and a good understanding of literature and ink.

When he was eighteen years old, he went to Beijing to catch the exam, back and forth for a few months, the family suddenly suffered a great change, a group of strongmen in the nearby mountains killed, ransacked the village, killed more than 80 people in his family overnight, and the family's money was also robbed.

He is a rich son, he is used to spending a lot of money on weekdays, spending money like dirt, he is in the rivers and lakes, he still lives in a first-class restaurant, eats expensive dishes, and soon, the money on his body is exhausted, and there is nowhere to stay, so he randomly finds a dilapidated house, no one has lived for a long time, settles down, and settles down. But his stomach was growling, and he was very hungry. It's just that there is no silver on the body, and I can't buy anything to eat, so I have to forcibly hold back, endure hunger, barely support, drink a few sips of water every day, and then fall asleep, for several days, I am already hungry and yellow-skinned, only skin and bones are left, there is no strength up and down the body, I can't move, and I think in my heart: If this is the case, I will be hungry for a few more days, and I will die. The thought that he was going to starve to death was palpable.

In the middle of the night, an old beggar came into the house, borrowed a night, and saw that he was half dead, and he was really pitiful, so he sympathized with him, took out half of his dirty steamed buns from his arms, and handed him them.

Feng Ping saw it, like a leech seeing blood, he used the last bit of strength in his body, took it and ate it, where to care whether it was dirty or not, gobbled it up, took two bites, and ate half of the dirty steamed bun.

The old beggar chatted with him, and when he learned of his origins, he laughed at him, saying that he was young and did nothing, and lived in the house waiting to starve to death, and that he was not even a beggar, so that he had no interest.

He slept like this for the night, and on the second day, the old beggar went by himself, and when he left, he did not forget to laugh at him, saying that he was so pustugated that he would simply die.
