Water Margin: Lu Bu sits on Mount Liang

Chapter 39
The night is dark and visibility is very low. Such a night is also difficult for the guards who watch the night. The lit torches and lanterns can only see a distance of more than [-] meters in front of them.

For Zhou Darong and Sun Dabaozhang, the weather was so bad that it was more convenient for them. The explosion sound of the round bump came out, and no one could find it for a long time, which created convenient conditions for them to escape smoothly.

On the quiet street, the rapid panting of the two seemed to be clearly audible. At this moment, Zhou Darong seemed to "forget" Sun Dapao's unfamiliar method just now, and rushed to the east of the city with his support.

"Big... Da Pao Zhan, today...you are...not quite the same as usual." After a while, Zhou Darong spoke hesitantly, as if he couldn't bear the silence around him.

Sun Dapao grinned bitterly: "Brother Zhou, what you said is that I didn't hesitate when I killed someone."

Zhou Darong opened his mouth, swallowed his saliva and did not speak, only nodded.

Panting, Sun Da Pao Zhan led him forward for nearly a hundred meters before he said, "Before I came to Zhending Mansion, I used to work in Jiazhan Treasury."

"Say, you were an official?" Zhou Darong glanced at Sun Dapaozhang in surprise.

Sun Da Paozhang laughed at himself: "What an official, I'm just an official. I learned my gunpowder technology from others there. Later, I got into trouble with Shangguan and was targeted by him everywhere. I simply gave up my job and quit. Really make a living."

Zhou Darong didn't know why after hearing this, the feeling of awkwardness in his heart disappeared. He seemed to think that Sun Da Pao Zhan killed someone as a former official. Of course he knew that his thinking was wrong, but it was better than the neighbor who lived with him day and night being a hidden murderer. let him accept.

Here, Sun Dapaozhan didn't know that Zhou Darong had already convinced himself, he took a breath and said: "When I was in Jiazhan's warehouse, there were thieves who wanted to come to steal Bingjia. How to make it, I took that thief as the first verification object."

He took a heavy breath: "Yes, hehe, this is not the first time I have killed someone."

Zhou Darong nodded: "It's your duty to guard the Jiazhan library, well done."

"Hehe, thank you, Big Brother Zhou." Sun Da Pao Zhan smiled, and he thought he had just made sense of Zhou Darong.

"Hoohoo, the front... the front is right there." Zhou Darong gasped, glanced at Sun Dapao and said, "Do you still have those fireballs?"

"Thunderbolt Fireball." Sun Dapao took a breath and touched the sweat on his forehead: "There are three more."

Zhou Darong turned his head in surprise when he heard this: "You are so young?"

Sun Da Pao Zhan sighed: "This gunpowder is not easy to mix, and the firecracker business is tepid and there is not much money in. To have these, I have saved them in the past two years. There are only three of them, and it is not enough. "

Zhou Darong opened his mouth, wanting to say that I didn't think it was enough, but shut his mouth because he was afraid that Sun Da Pao would look down on him for his cowardice.

The two walked another 40 meters, Zhou Darong suddenly grabbed Sun Dapao and said, "Wait, there are people."

Sun Dapao was stunned, and listened attentively. There was indeed the sound of footsteps in front of him. He quickly looked around and saw that half of the wall was left in a nearby room, and said in a low voice, "Here."

The two tiptoed over, lowered their bodies and hid themselves, knelt on the ground and poked their heads out to peek outside.

He heard two footsteps, and slowly saw two figures appearing in the mist, one seemed to have a normal posture, and the other was taller than ordinary people, a bit taller.

Gradually approaching, the two saw that it was two men, one of whom was carrying a woman on his back.

Zhou Darong took a closer look, then suddenly his body trembled, he grabbed the broken wall and wanted to stand up, but Sun Dapao hurriedly grabbed him, and said in a low voice, "You are crazy, what are you doing out there?"

"Small, little sister, that's my little sister." Zhou Darong blushed with excitement, repeatedly pointing at the woman being carried on his back.

Sun Da Paozhang looked surprised, and immediately reacted. He quickly lowered his head and opened the box to take out a thunderbolt fireball. After he took out the torch and set it on fire, he heard someone shouting, "Who? Come out."

Zhou Darong quickly stood up, limped out with a simple knife and said, "You... who are you? Let go of my little sister."

Sun Da Pao Zhan was also ready at this time, he stood up and walked to Zhou Darong with his homemade Thunderbolt Fireball and said, "Put down the Zhou family sister, or you two dirty bastards will die here."

"Prostitute...prostitute?" The two were taken aback for a moment, and the one who was not behind his back pointed to himself and said, "We? No, who are you?"

"I'm his elder brother." Zhou Darong stepped forward and pointed at the two with a simple knife: "Put down my sister quickly, or you will die here even if you are members of the Ma family."

The awe-inspiring atmosphere of these words is intimidating, it would be better if Zhou Darong's hands didn't shake so much.

At this moment, a weak voice said: "Big brother?"

When the person behind her back heard this, he quickly put him down.

"Little sister, you..." Zhou Darong looked at the scene in front of him and lowered Pu Dao a little. He had a hunch, maybe he misunderstood something?
Sun Da Paozhang next to him also thought the same, but he was cautious after all, he didn't dare to put down the firearm in his hand, and still stared at the two people in front of him.

Zhou Xiu'er stood on the ground, grabbed the arm of the person carrying him with one hand and said, "Brother, you made a mistake, the two of them saved me."

Only then did Zhou and Sun feel relieved, and Sun Da Pao Zhan put away the fire pack and put the firearm back.

Zhou Darong threw the simple knife away, and limped to Zhou Xiuer's side: "Little girl, are you okay, did that fellow Ma Chengye hurt you?"

Zhou Xiu'er heard that she touched her face, and quickly let go of the pain: "Fortunately, the two heroes came in time, I'm fine, I just got hit."

Looking at Ma Ling and Qiao Lie next to him, he quickly said to Zhou Darong: "Don't bother me, brother, thank these two heroes."

Zhou Darong hurried up and knelt on the ground with a "plop": "Thank you two heroes for saving my little sister, otherwise I really don't know what to do. The great kindness is unforgettable, please be respected by the villain."

Qiao Lie hurriedly stepped forward to help him: "We don't want to do this to you, and get up first, this is not a place to talk."

Zhou Darong nodded again and again: "Yes, please go to the villain's house for a while."

Sun Da Pao Zhan was behind him at this time, and he shook his head when he heard his words: "Brother Zhou, I'm just pouring cold water on you, I'm afraid you won't be able to return home, don't forget that we killed someone at Lei San'er, he When you and I won’t be spared, Zhemo’s revenge will come soon.”

Zhou Darong's complexion changed, and before he could even open his mouth, his sister said: "Brother, you too... You really can't go back after this, Ma Chengye has also been killed by these two heroes."

"Ah?" Zhou Darong's complexion changed drastically, he and Sun Dapao faced each other, and looked at the two benefactors who looked not young: "Did you kill Ma Xiaoguan?"

"Keep down." Zhou Xiu'er hit her brother hard with her small fist.

Zhou Darong quickly covered his mouth.

Ma Ling smiled: "Why don't you kill and keep those whores, and let them harm other little ladies?"

Sun Dapao sighed: "It seems that the Ma family will know about Xin'er soon. I will leave the city as soon as possible tomorrow, but where to go is the problem."

Qiao Lie looked at a few people and said impatiently: "Come with me first, it's too conspicuous here, I have a resting place, and I will ask you to leave the city tomorrow morning."

Ma Ling also said: "That's right, let's go first."

After hearing this, Zhou and Sun could only nod in agreement. Zhou Darong was injured and couldn't carry Zhou Xiu'er, but Ma Ling carried it. Qiao Lie picked up Zhou Darong's simple knife on the ground, and Sun Dapao supported Zhou Darong with his own guy on his back. People set foot on the way home and gradually disappeared in the thick fog.

……

Early the next morning.

The four old men led their horses and drove past the street where Zhou and Sun's family lived. Seeing several yamen arresters standing there, they immediately turned to each other and left.

The city gate to be exited was far away from Zhending Mansion. Seeing that there were few pedestrians on the official road, Sun Dapaozhang heaved a sigh of relief and said, "I thought Lai San'er was someone, but I didn't expect to report to the police to arrest us. I really don't know his reputation." How did you type it out?"

"Don't worry about Lai San'er, anyway, we've already left Zhending Mansion, so we won't be able to deal with each other in the future." Zhou Darong rubbed the sallow skin on his face, and said with a strange expression: "The hero Qiao Lie's method is interesting. , We all seem to have changed our appearance."

Qiao Lie smiled: "Small tricks, what's it worth. You're also a brother who is going to go up the mountain with us, don't call yourself a hero in the future, it will make people laugh."

Sitting in the car, Zhou Xiu'er lifted the curtain of the window and said, "Brother Qiao, is it really okay for us to go up the mountain? My brother doesn't even kill people, let alone kill people."

"Little sister!" Zhou Darong blushed a little, obviously he had said something on his mind, he really didn't know how to do it.

Ma Ling smiled and said: "Don't worry, just rely on Brother Zhou's cooking skills, I will see who is not satisfied, and let them do it themselves."

Qiao Lie also smiled and said: "Brother is the most loyal person, don't say that your brothers and sisters have craftsmanship, even if they don't know anything, it doesn't matter."

"That's good." Zhou Xiu'er smiled and put down the curtain. Although Qiao Lie and Ma Ling said yesterday that she would take them in, she was always worried. She hoped that their brother was really a hero as he said.

Sun Da Paozhang looked at the people in front of him with a strange expression, and muttered to himself: "Lu Bu...the person with this name must have some skills?"

……

The sky suddenly broke the outline of the distant mountains, crossed a bump, and crossed a few rivers.

In the barracks, people shouted and neighed, billows of smoke and dust were raised, and countless soldiers in leather armor were practicing martial arts and formations. Just looking at the blue-faced generals on the podium, one could tell that the result was not very good.

Suddenly, a rider rushed into the martial arts arena from outside the camp, and the soldier who handed over the horse to the guards hurried up to the podium. After revealing his identity to the guards, he rushed to the side of the general and whispered something in his ear .

"What?! Say it again, Li Mian is dead?" The general named Tian Zimao had gray hair and looked at the reporter with wide eyes.

The soldier clasped his fists and bowed his head: "General, it is absolutely true that Li Mian has been killed by the bandits in Baishi Mountain, along with the bandits Deng Yun and Sha Mohai."

"Hiss~" Tian Zimao sucked his teeth in pain, got up and walked outside: "Call me Zhang Qing."

"Yes."

Down below, the sound of shouting and killing was still there, but Tian Zimao's figure had disappeared from the stage.
