Water Margin people

Chapter 68 Invisible Shackles

"Two good brothers, my brother invites you to go to Qinghefang to be cool today, and you should pay for the consumption!"

Sun Lei smiled triumphantly. Naturally, he couldn't be stingy when he became a big brother, especially Lu Zhishen. It must be interesting to take this guy to a brothel.

"What are you doing in Goulan, the brothel? Why not find a wine shop and have a good drink."

Lu Zhishen quit. Although he is a wine and meat monk, he dare not break the lust ring.

"Brother, let's forget about this brothel."

Lin Chong also opened his mouth and said, it's not that he didn't dare to go to the brothel, but because he already had a wife, Sun Lei said to his face that he was ashamed to go there. As for calling brother, he called it the first time, and it didn't matter the second time. Well, the rivers and lakes never stick to these details, it is common to accept the head and worship.

"Uncle, the servant's family has already prepared some food and drink, why don't you just have a drink in the courtyard."

Mrs. Zhang saw that Lu Zhishen and Lin Chong were unwilling, so she said, she didn't care. It is very common for men to visit brothels in this era, especially for rich, powerful and talented men. Often mentioned in private chat.

"Okay, okay."

Seeing that everyone was against going to the brothel, Sun Lei had no choice but to give up.

"As the saying goes, true brothers have to carry guns together and go whoring together... so what!"

Sun Lei was about to say it, but seeing that Mrs. Zhang was still there, he could only hold back the word prostitution.

"Brother's thinking is quick, and his martial arts skills are good. Why don't you get a good name? In the future, the brothers will go to the battlefield together to fight the country's enemies and seal their wives and sons. It's a life and death together!"

As soon as Lin Chong heard that they had carried guns together, he immediately became interested. He dreamed of going to the battlefield to kill the enemy and make meritorious service.

"Forget it, it doesn't matter if the official of the Great Song Dynasty is improper, this official will be corrupt and pervert the law! If you want to be a high-ranking official, you have to get along with Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Gao Qiu, and Yang Jian, and become the same as them! Do you think I did it? come?"

Sun Lei glanced at Lin Chong and said, "It's not a pity that the Northern Song Dynasty perished. The four corrupt officials gathered together for an era, and they were all trusted by the emperor. It can be said that corrupt officials have power over the government, and it is strange that they are not destroyed."

Lin Chong remained silent, the situation in the court was getting worse day by day, and it became more and more gloomy since Gao Qiu gained power.

"Look at you again, you are all upright men, why can't you show some temper? You want to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds, and your name will last forever, but you have to see which of the famous generals in history is not a person of character ? Don’t imitate Han Xin’s crotch, and you’ll lose my brother’s face!”

Pointing to Lin Chong, Sun Lei said, "Lin Chong is a loser, so don't hurt yourself as an older brother. Lin Chong can make a compromise and don't care about face, but he can't."

"Brother was joking, the humiliation of Han Xin's crotch is also to bear the humiliation and to be able to bend and stretch."

Lin Chong had a different opinion.

"Master Lu, tomorrow a rogue will ask you to drill his crotch, will you do it?"

Sun Lei looked at Lu Zhishen and asked.

"Which is not long-sighted, the Sa family will tear him up!"

When Lu Zhishen heard this, he was furious. Since he was the only bully, when did anyone dare to bully him?He slapped the table in front of him and was about to kill that man with a Zen stick.

"Just talking, who dares to provoke you!"

Sun Lei waved his hands.

"Look, this is called a hero, you have to learn!"

Sun Lei educated Lin Chong by pretending that I am the elder brother and you want to listen to me. As long as Lin Chong learns Lu Zhishen's [-]% temper, he will be a completely different person.

"Master is really temperamental, Lin Chong is ashamed."

Looking at Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong cupped his hands and said, if he really had Lu Zhishen's character, the Lin family would have been expelled from Tokyo long ago. The emperor's feet are not a place where you can act recklessly, and there are many rules in the officialdom.

"Professor Lin, don't blame my brother for being straightforward. He has this personality, just like the Sajia, he is straightforward, but we are all men in the world, who can have no temper? The Sajia sees that you have been aggrieved and flustered. If you continue like this, it will hurt you." Harmful."

Lu Zhishen looked at Lin Chong and said, from Lin Chong he saw the invisible shackles. This is what he saw on many officials. He was an official before, and he knew the weight of the shackles, and he had to take care of the superiors in everything he did. He is timid in doing things, and sometimes he has to endure being wronged and unfair in order to cater to Shangguan who knows it is wrong.He just couldn't stand the anger, he did his own way, and that's why he was not seen by Mr. Xiaozhong's Jinglue Mansion. Later, he beat the bully Zheng Tu to death in a fit of anger, but after that, although he hid in Tibet and finally became a monk, he was still a human being. But it's a lot easier, and the feeling of freedom is an unparalleled enjoyment.

"I don't know what the master said, Lin Chong. It's just...well, Lin Chong has sworn since he was a child that he would honor his family, make a bow and become a marquis, so that the Lin family can also be famous in history."

Lin Chong picked up the teacup on the table and drank the tea in one gulp, saying with a painful expression.

"Don't be afraid of the jokes of the two elder brothers. Lin Chong only wants to be able to fight with the army one day, make military exploits, seal his wife and son, and the Lin family can also become a general who will be passed down for generations!"

Lin Chong finally bowed his head and smiled wryly. These are what he wanted. That's why he endured the oppression of those corrupt officials all the time. He just wanted a chance to go to the battlefield.

After hearing Lin Chong's words, Sun Lei and Lu Zhishen were silent. Sun Lei felt that everyone has their own ambitions. Although Lin Chong's choice was wrong, it was also a choice that normal people should have.Lu Zhishen felt that he saw his former self in Lin Chong, the one who wanted to make contributions in the Western Army.

Everyone was silent, Mrs. Zhang took the maid to put on a banquet at the right time, and had another big meal. It was not until the afternoon that Sun Lei and Lu Zhishen bid farewell and left.

Lin Chong repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay, hoping to keep Sun Lei and Lu Zhishen to stay at home. They are already sworn brothers, so they should live in his home, and talking with Sun Lei and Lu Zhishen today made him feel that the depression in his heart has gone. Less, very comfortable.

Lu Zhishen didn't intend to stay, he was in charge of the vegetable garden now, and he had to go back to have a look. Sun Lei also felt that it was inconvenient to live in the Lin's house, and the vegetable garden was free, so he left together.

Lin Chong had been sent to the Suanzao Gate before returning.

"Coach Lin is too polite. I will go to him for a drink tomorrow. There are several wine shops on the street. The wine smells good, and it must be delicious to eat."

Lu Zhi said with deep emotion that he had eaten two meals at Lin Chong's house, and it would be impossible not to invite him back. It happened that there were several good restaurants on this street.

"You go and eat, I'll forget it."

Sun Lei shook his head and said.

"Brother, why are we sworn brothers with you? How happy are we to drink together?"

Lu Zhishen looked at Sun Lei, how could this brother who had just become sworn brother want to act alone.

"What's there to eat with wine? I'm just worried that that wimpy brother will be foolish and ruin the lives of his family. He has martial arts skills, so he won't die. Pity that virtuous sister-in-law, alas!"

Sun Lei sighed and shook his head and said, no matter how cowardly Lin Chong was, he finally exploded. After all, he has martial arts skills, and it is not difficult to escape. The poor one is Zhang, who may not be able to see clearly to death. She can be regarded as the most pitiful woman in the Water Margin .

"Who wants to kill Coach Lin? The Sajia Busheng tore him up!"

Lu Zhishen immediately put on an angry expression.

"Who else is there, Gao Qiu."

Sun Lei shook his head and said, "If you want to say what Lin Chong did wrong, you really can't pick it out. This person is capable and capable, but he is firmly suppressed by his cautious personality, and he will not resist until he dies.But things in the world are often like this, the more you tolerate not looking for trouble, the more trouble will come to you.
