Outlaws of the Marsh

Chapter 18

...

Enter the hotel and sit down in the pavilion together.

Ruan Xiaoqi said: "You don't need to ask, just bring up good wine and good meat, it's all right."

Li Yan has long since stopped worrying about such trivial matters as ordering food. He has his own people to help him, and he continues to ask Shan Shiqi for advice on stick techniques.

Shan Shiqi is a son of a wealthy family in Qinzhou. He didn't do farming since he was a child, but only loved to stab a gun and use a stick. His parents said he couldn't do it, so he had to follow his own will. I don't know how much money he spent. He asked his master to teach him, so he learned a very Brilliant stick technique.

There are many masters around Li Yan, like Wu Song, Guang Hui, and Zhu Jing.

But they all use swords, and Li Yan, who is the most skilled at mixing iron and panlong sticks, naturally wants to learn the technique of sticks the most.

Therefore, along the way, Li Yan has been learning the art of sticks from Shan Shiqi.

However, Shan Shiqi is very eye-catching, and they all taught Li Yan in the name of mutual learning.

Li Yan felt a little sorry, so he taught Shan Shiqi a lot of mixed martial arts.

Not long after, the restaurant had a good banquet and two jars of wine.

For Li Yan, who is used to drinking Erguotou, drinking the wine at this time is actually similar to drinking a drink. When he is rarely drunk, at most he is a little drunk, just like the last time he was drinking Machuan.

Wu Song and others are also good at drinking.

Therefore, the two jars of wine are just to quench their thirst.

After drinking for a while and eating for a while, Ruan Xiaoqi mentioned the lost gold again, and said: "It was really amazing at that time, it was able to steal so much gold from us people!"

In fact, among the people at the table, only Ruan Xiaoqi, who believed in Li Yan unconditionally, believed that the gold they lost was stolen by Shi Qian, and everyone else, including Wu Song, was dubious about this!

To be honest, Li Yan was also not sure whether Shi Qian did this, let alone whether the person who most resembled Shi Qian was Shi Qian.

But Li Yan has a countermeasure.

If Shi Qian didn't do this, then Li Yan would say in the future: I didn't expect there to be a thief comparable to Shi Qian in this world.

In this way, it not only flatters Shi Qian, but also confuses the matter.

Because of the countermeasures, Li Yan continued to praise Shi Qian and said: "Although Shi Qian was not good at fighting directly to destroy cities and villages, he was a special warfare master who spied on intelligence and destroyed enemy rears. If he can come and vote for us in Liangshanbo , our Liangshanbo has added two members of the Five Tigers."

Hearing that Li Yan praised Shi Qian so much, Wu Song and others all shook their heads, thinking that Li Yan praised Shi Qian to the sky!

At this moment, a black shadow flashed by the window, and then a thin man with thick eyebrows and bright eyes appeared in the pavilion out of thin air!

As soon as the lean man appeared, he put his hands on the burden, knelt down to Li Yan, and said, "Shi Qian has come to make an apology to Li Zhaizhu, who is doing justice for the heavens!"

Wu Song and others were all taken aback!
Time actually changes people in this world!

And at this time, Shi Qian was the one who stole their baggage!

What surprised them most was that Shi Qian had stolen more than 200 taels of gold from them and sent them back!

After the shock, Wu Song and the others looked at Li Yan who was walking towards Shiqian in unison, and thought in unison: "Brother, isn't he a god, who can know the affairs of the world just by pinching his fingers?"

At this moment, Li Yan's prestige immediately reached a new height!

Li Yan was also a little smug!

Really fooled myself!

What's even more amazing is that the person I guessed is really Shi Qian!
Li Yan picked up Shi Qian and said: "Brother Shi Qian, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"

Shi Qian was a little surprised, and said, "Brother knew I would come?"

Li Yan laughed, and said: "If you don't come, you won't be the hero Shi Qian I said."

What I'm talking about is actually nonsense. If you don't come, you won't be the hero Shiqian in my mouth.

But Ruan Xiaoqi and others, including Shi Qian, were all bluffed by Li Yan, thinking that Li Yan really expected that Shi Qian would come!

moment!

Li Yan's profound aura is even better than before!

Li Yan pulled Shi Qian to the side of the table, and then personally opened the stool for Shi Qian, asked Shi Qian to sit down, and then introduced Shi Qian to Ruan Xiaoqi and the others: "This is the brother Shi Qian I told you about." , A first-class hero!"

Not to mention Wu Song and others, even Shi Qian himself was a little ashamed - Shi Qian's background was so low that Shi Qian himself felt a little inferior!

Shi Qian said embarrassingly: "Some time ago I had a lawsuit in the Jizhou Mansion, and thanks to Yang Jieji's help, I was able to get out of trouble. Today he got married, and I wanted to give him a nice gift, so I offended my brother!"

Ruan Xiaoqi enthusiastically said: "Brother Shi Qian, my brother values ​​you so much, why don't you go up to Liangshanbo to do justice for the heavens, the leaders who go up the mountain all have a family allowance of [-] guan, you will have to send that Yang Xiong congratulatory gift?"

The most correct thing Li Yan did on this trip was to bring Ruan Xiaoqi along!
Be it Guanghui, Shan Shiqi and Zhu Jing, Pei Xuan, Deng Fei, and Meng Kang, they were all recruited by Ruan Xiaoqi and Li Yan.

Now, Ruan Xiaoqi is very timely to help Li Yan recruit Shi Qian!

Even if Li Yan didn't praise him, Shi Qian, who had always wanted to find an organization to rely on, would be very willing to Shangliang Shanbo, let alone Li Yan who praised him so much?

As for the one thousand guan gold, Shi Qian didn't take it seriously, otherwise he wouldn't be able to return two or three times the money.

Shi Qian immediately bowed down and said: "I only do some stealing activities. When will it be? As long as the elder brother does not dislike the younger brother's background, from now on, the younger brother's life will be given to the older brother. If one day the younger brother is reluctant When I was helping my elder brother with my life, I was taught to suffer misfortune, a serious illness, and an untimely death!"

Shi Qian went deep into the enemy's rear for many times to "combat", stealing armor in Tokyo, burning Cuiyun Tower, spying on Zengtou City, ringing the bell at Fahua Temple, burning Jeju, burning Baoyan Temple, undercover Gaizhou City, burning Dusong Pass, and burning Yuling Pass It is no exaggeration to say that Shi Qian's contribution to Liangshan, even if he is not the first, is still among the top three. Liangshan's five tigers can lose two tigers, but they must not Less time shifting!
Li Yan hurriedly helped Shi Qian up, and said with an oath: "Brother, I will definitely live up to my brother in this life!"

After hesitating for a while, Shi Qian said, "Brother, I have one more request."

Li Yan said: "Brother, it's okay to say!"

Shi Qian said: "I still have some relatives, friends and apprentices, can I take them up the mountain together?"

It didn't say in the book that Shi Qian had relatives, friends and apprentices.

But after thinking about it for a while, Li Yan gradually understood.

Before Shi Qian went up the mountain, he stole a chicken and caused a catastrophe, which caused Chao Gai's displeasure. His two companions, Shi Xiu and Yang Xiong, were almost beheaded by Chao Gai.

After going up the mountain, Shi Qian's status has never been high. Even if he made great contributions, he only ranked No.2 from the bottom in the end. The ranking is not as good as the mediocre Wang Dingliu and Yu Baosi. A typical case of human injustice.

Under such circumstances, how can Shi Qian recommend his relatives, friends and apprentices to go to Liangshan to see his jokes?
Li Yan said straightforwardly: "Brothers, just invite them. After returning to the mountain, I will build a special camp with brothers as the center, and let all your relatives, friends and apprentices join your special camp. In addition, all my soldiers in Liangshanbo , All the water army is counted, as long as it is someone you like, brother, you can join your secret special battalion, as for how to build this special battalion, let’s discuss it slowly.”

If Shi Qian had doubts about Li Yan's respect for him before, then after Li Yan's words came out, Shi Qian no longer had any doubts!
Shi Qian immediately burst into tears and said, "I will repay my elder brother for his kindness!"
