Water Margin: Lu Bu sits on Mount Liang

Chapter 23 Delivery

Xue Can leaned on the three-pointed double-edged knife and sighed: "Since I parted from you, Brother Qiao, two big thieves appeared in the north of Liao Kingdom. One is called Lu Liujin and the other is called Su Moer. Eat from both sides, and often go to Hebei and Hebei to plunder after the riots in Liao, making a big battle. My brothers thought that one would contribute to the elders of the hometown, and the other would use their skills to shoot and kill in the side court. With a good background, he went to work in the army."

Fei Zhen interjected: "The two of us, Shangguan, are greedy for money. We only know how to ask for money from the two of us. We don't have so much money, but in three to five months, he squeezed it all out."

After he finished speaking, he sighed, and everyone was speechless for a while.

Xue Can went on to say: "The fellow saw that the two of us really had no money to be filial, so he sent the two of us to that dangerous place. It's all right. We both have some martial arts skills, relying on the cooperation of our colleagues in the army. If you can get some credit, that bird boy actually took the credit from both of us."

Deng Fei's eyes were red, and he stared and said angrily: "There are such birdmen, they are really villains in the army and silverfish of the country."

Xue Can said: "That's exactly the case. We originally wanted to put up with the calm for a while, but that fellow took credit for his achievements again and again, but if he made a mistake, he would push it to the two of us and let us all suffer from the military stick."

Fei Zhen also flushed with anger and said: "The two of us originally wanted to leapfrog the ranks to sue, but we didn't think about it. The commander of the bandit bird and the two Shangguan are relatives in-law. We were kicked out of the barracks because of him. , took advantage of the rest of the barracks to kill the two birds, so they were wanted."

"Okay, kill it quickly, this kind of people deserve to die." Deng Fei Ma Ling immediately applauded, and even Xiao Haili, who never liked to express his opinions, nodded and said yes.

Qiao Lie smiled wryly: "The two of you didn't choose a better mountain. Baishi Mountain is too close to Taizu's native place, and it is also the border. There are too many officers and troops in this area, even if they are waste Firewood can pile up the two of you to death."

Fei and Xue Can also smiled wryly: "What brother said is true, but we have suffered from our lack of knowledge. Xiaozhai has not developed much so far, and we are so aggrieved that we will die."

Lu Bu rubbed his chin and asked in surprise, "This... the army has been so corrupted, is the army commander turning a blind eye?"

Xue Can got angry again when he heard the words, and said angrily: "How can I care, these guys protect each other layer by layer, as long as the interests of the gentlemen in the court are not affected, no one will care about the death of the army chief below."

Fei Zhen sighed: "Here, General Tian, ​​the chief general, is pretty good, but what's the use of him being good, most of the people below are greedy and ruthless, and they are afraid of death when they go into battle. Otherwise, why would there be so many people?" As for doing nothing."

Deng Fei also said: "Brother, among the frontier troops, only the Western Army is acceptable, and the rest of the armies are really powerless."

Qiao Lie, Fei and Xue nodded their heads.

Lu Bu was silent when he said that, but his impression of Song Jun was unavoidably a bit off.

Several people sighed for a while, and it was Fei Zhen who asked, "Brothers, where are you going?"

Qiao Lie said: "I'm going to go to Zhending Mansion to buy some certificates. Master Dao, my master has a friend there, and he has connections."

Fei and Xue are also veterans. Hearing the words, he knew what the meaning was, and Xue Can asked, "But which brother is carrying a lawsuit?"

Deng Fei scratched his hair and said: "I have a lawsuit with me. Brother Qiao Lie is kind and wants to buy me a certificate to escape arrest. My brother and brothers are also willing to come with me."

Fei Zhenwen listened and said, "You are all loyal men."

Deng Fei smiled wryly: "If you want me to say, what's the point of buying a duo, my eyes are too obvious."

Qiao Lie shook his head: "It's different, you put on a Taoist robe, and you just need to show the degree certificate, what does the city gate official look like."

Xue Can also nodded, and suddenly slapped his forehead and said: "Today, I saw brother Qiao and all the brothers happy in my heart, but I forgot to show my friendship as the landlord. My two small villages are nearby. Please invite everyone My brother appreciates it."

When everyone heard the words, they all looked at Lu Bu, waiting for him to speak.

Seeing this, Lu Bu said, "It's rare for my brother to invite you so kindly. I won't be able to refute my face, so I will bother you."

Fei and Xue were overjoyed, they hurriedly led the way, and a group of people chatted and laughed as they walked towards the mountain. There was a feast of slaughtering chickens and goats that day, and it was very lively.

……

A few days passed in a flash, Lu Bu and the others were here besides practicing and drinking and eating. They often ate and drank, and everyone went to the martial arts arena to compete in martial arts. Fei Zhen and Deng Fei were brothers in martial arts, Xue Can is slightly stronger, but not Ma Ling's opponent.

Naturally, these two people are also very interested in Lu Bu's martial arts, but they just got off the horse immediately, the two of them are not the same enemy, they know that the difference is too far, they respect Lu Bu even more, and bluntly say that even if Wen Hou Lu Bu comes back to life, it will be nothing Similar to his elder brother's martial arts, Lu Bu didn't know how to react. On the one hand, he felt that his strength was still a lot worse than in his previous life, and he still needed to work hard, and he didn't have a good horse like Chitu around him, so it would inevitably take more effort to fight in battle ,on the other hand……

It sounds weird to be used as a metaphor for yourself.

On this day, everyone was competing in martial arts with knives and guns in the martial arts field, and they all ran over to report: "A group of officers and soldiers are chasing a man at the foot of the mountain. It is up to the village master to decide how to proceed."

Xue Can rushed to Lu Bu and said, "Brother, do I care or not?"

Lu Bu couldn't laugh or cry: "Brother, this is your village, how can I be the master?"

By nature, Lu Bu really wants to give orders, but recently he has often reflected on whether he has done it in the past. In addition, he has read the biographies of Cao Mengde and Liu Xuande some time ago, and feels that sometimes he should be humble when doing things. Being too domineering is not a long-term solution Therefore, he never said anything to make a decision for Xue Can.

Fei Zhen said that she came up to her and said: "The two of us have not been around for a short time now. We have not made any progress and are tied up. My brother is superb in martial arts and loyal. The two of us admire him very much. Anyway, hanging out here is boring. I would rather abandon the village and follow my brother."

Xue Can nodded and said: "That's true, I still hope that my brother will take him in."

Lu Bu felt a little helpless when he heard the words, why did he have such a humble determination?Now people not only asked to go overboard, but even to go to themselves.

Looking at the reactions of the rest of the brothers, although Deng Fei, Ma Ling and Xiao Haili were surprised, most of them were joyful, obviously they didn't know it, only Qiao Lie smiled and nodded, presumably with Fei Zhen and Xue Can It's been discussed, so I'm not surprised.

"That's right, go down and see who those people are chasing. If there is a grievance, save your life. If it's a damned person, let the government take it away." Seeing what everyone meant, Lu Bu immediately took it, Xuzhou He snatched it all from Liu Bei. Wouldn't it be hypocritical for someone to deliver it now if they don't accept it?
"Yes."

Everyone agreed in response, and now they will leave Fei Zhen to guard the house and light up the mountain where more than [-] minions have come down.

……

At the foot of the hillside, a majestic eight-foot-tall man with thick eyebrows and big eyes was galloping through the woods panting, holding a sharp knife with his eyebrows in his hand.

Behind him, more than a dozen people dressed as officials were chasing after him with knives and nets, and more than [-] men dressed as servants followed closely with whistle sticks and swords.

"Hugh Pao with the surname E."

"Stop!"

"The fugitive should leave!"

The officials and servants yelled and tried their best to catch up, but the people in front didn't talk to each other and ran quickly, but their faces were gloomy, and their right hand was tightly gripping the handle of the knife, and the knuckles turned white from the force.

"Liu Dutou, don't let this guy escape, catch him, my master is willing to give five hundred customary money to all the officials as tea money."

A man dressed as a teacher in the back was running with a big sword in his hands, gritted his teeth and saw that the official officer showed signs of slowing down, so he immediately asked for money. Anyway, the money is not his own. Still can't make a wish.

All the officers and servants were shocked when they heard this, and rushed forward like chicken blood. Those who ran in front were not criminals, they were clearly white money.

The teacher was proud of his idea just now, but in a blink of an eye he saw that the servant slowed down again. After thinking about it for a while, he realized that he was disgusted with not being rewarded and refused to contribute, so he couldn't help cursing: "A bunch of lazy people. I usually tell you to practice more and don't listen. Now This fatal moment is embarrassing for the men, and a bunch of idiots don't think about it carefully. If you catch that guy, can the master not reward you with money? If you can't catch that guy, pay attention to you bunch of wives Bird skin!"

After hearing this, all the servants were stunned. Then they thought about this, and they couldn't help but quicken their pace to chase after him. My master is not a good man, and it is common for him to beat and scold at every turn. If he really gets angry, he will be killed It may not be guaranteed, and besides, there is also the damn teacher Li Zongtang, who is also a ruthless person.

A group of people were running, chasing, and suddenly heard the sound of arrows, and a group of people turned out from the woods in front, but saw a person in front of him riding a bad horse, wearing a mountain armor, wearing a steel helmet, holding a Fangtian painting halberd Immediately hung a hard bow, with a majestic figure and an imposing manner.

Behind them were five strong men riding horses lined up, and behind them were 20 or [-] bandits riding horses, staring at the crowd murderously, and there were more than [-] minions on the left and right sides standing there with single knives.

Where did the strongman come from?There are so many cavalry!

Those who escaped and those who chased took a breath of air and stopped slowly.

Then a man with red eyes and a long gun came out and pointed the gun forward: "Where did the birds come from, dare to come to our territory to beg for wildfire?"

For a while, the people on both sides became quiet, and no one dared to answer casually, only the sound of rapid panting was heard.

After a while, the man who was being chased at the front stepped forward and said: "Little man E Quanzhong, please help me once for the sake of comrades in the green forest."

"E Quanzhong?" Xue Can suddenly said, "But E Quanzhong, who is known as the sharp knife in Qizhou?"

"It's the villain." E Quanzhong arched his hands: "I don't want to be known to a hero with such a meager name. I don't know who is in charge of the family?"

They were talking about their friendship here, and the one behind felt that something was wrong, seeing that this group of strong men was afraid that the two sides would unite, so they rushed out in a hurry.
