Water Margin: Lu Bu sits on Mount Liang

Chapter 52 Mind
At night, the people who had been noisy for a whole day finally calmed down. The hall was full of glasses and dishes, and the empty wine jars were piled up like a tower.The host smiled and sent away the naive guest, and dragged the elders to the study by himself.

The servants who cleaned the hall came in and out to tidy up the tabletops. Someone found that there was a large puddle of water stains under each table. The smell was clearly wine. They didn't know why Lang Jun and his guests were so wasteful.

In the study room, a servant brought hangover soup and put it on the table. It was steaming hot and fragrant.Someone lit a candle as thick as an arm, and the bright candlelight flickered, sweating hard, trying to maintain their due responsibilities.

After dismissing the servants, Chai Jin sat opposite Chai Huangcheng, with a solemn expression. Chai Jin remembered everything that happened during the day and never forgot it, but even if he had doubts, it was not good to discuss it in front of others. He dragged his uncle after the banquet Entered the study.

"Uncle." Chai Jin was the first to speak after being silent for a while, "During the day...you heard it."

Chai Huangcheng stroked his beard with a calm expression: "What did you hear?"

"Then Lu Bu called that horse Chitu!" Chai Jin looked excited, holding the armrest of the Grand Master's chair tightly with both hands.

Chai Huangcheng's eyelids drooped slightly: "I heard that, then what?"

Chai Jin looked at Chai Huangcheng unmoved, and couldn't help being very anxious. He waved his hands desperately and said incoherently: "That horse, Lu Bu, hey, get close to him, the two of them, ah, right, oops! I'm so anxious."

Chai Huangcheng looked indifferent, raised his hand and casually took a sip of the hangover soup, and looked at his nephew coldly: "What do you want to say?"

Chai Jin gasped for breath twice, raised his hand and drank the hangover soup, put down the bowl and wiped his mouth, closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths: "Uncle, then Lu Bu may really be Lu Bu, the Marquis of Wen at the end of Han Dynasty. Well, we suffered a loss when we bought that horse. We didn't know it was a wild horse. We could only swallow this bitterness when we got here. We spent more than a month and couldn't tame it. That's the first time Lu Bu saw that wild horse today. , but the horse desperately wants to get close to him, but he still calls the horse Chitu. One is called Lu Bu and the other is called Chitu, ye said, can there be such a coincidence in the world?"

Chai Huangcheng's face was not changed by some shocking words, and he still looked at Chai Jin with a cold expression: "So I ask you, and then?"

……

In Qiao Lie's room.

Except for Lu Bu, everyone sat or stood together, no one was drunk, and they all looked at Qiao Lie who was sitting in the main seat with excitement.

Fu Xiang, who is usually taciturn, was uncharacteristic today, and said first: "I once heard from an old hunter that animals with spirituality can remember past lives better. He once raised a hunting dog, but unfortunately he died trying to save him when he met a leopard. Later Two years later, a puppy ran to the door of his house and lay on its stomach. He saw that the puppy was pitifully taken in, but found that the dog had exactly the same habits and movements as the hounds he raised before. You said that today my brother and this horse will That’s not the case, my brother also called it Chitu, and it responded.”

Ma Ling's face was flushed with excitement, and he stood there clenched his fists: "Hey, the master may be Wen Hou."

Bian Xiang crossed his arms, raised one hand to touch the black beard on his mouth, and said: "It is recorded in "Three Kingdoms · Wei Shu · Lu Bu Biography": Lu Bu 'became a bow horse, with extraordinary physical strength, and he was called Flying General.' The so-called flying generals should refer to the famous general Li Guang of the Western Han Dynasty at the earliest. Later, he gradually described the military generals who were superb in martial arts, proficient in riding and archery, like Shan Xiongxin in the late Sui Dynasty. For 'flying general'."

"During the Shenzong period, there was a general Xiang Bao who was famous for his bravery. Because of his outstanding shooting skills, the emperor's old man compared him to 'Xue Rengui', and he was also called a 'flying general' in the army at that time." E Quanzhong looked indifferent, just hugging The hands on the arms are tightly clutching the clothes, and it can be seen that the heart is not at peace.

Xiao Haili touched his smooth scalp, and suddenly interjected: "The chief's riding skills are very good, and his shooting skills are also the best I've ever seen. Even we Khitan people dare not say that they have such riding and shooting skills."

Deng Fei gasped and said: "I just said that my brother is not an ordinary person, but Zhemo is still a celebrity."

Everyone shouted and looked excited. Some people wished they could grab someone else and shake them to show their mood.

In front of a group of excited men, Qiao Lie looked relaxed and looked at everyone with a smile on his face: "Is it important who is brother?"

……

"What then?" Chai Jin looked surprised, and then said a little excitedly: "That's the flying general Lu Bu, his martial arts is the best in the world, it seems that this can make someone surnamed Zhao..."

Chai Huangcheng reached out to light the table, and interrupted his nephew impatiently: "What if he, Lu Bu, is the emperor of the Han Dynasty? This is the Great Song Dynasty, which is in its heyday. How many people can he kill with all his abilities? "

Chai Jin's excited expression seemed to be frozen, and he stood there in a daze.

"I ask you, what is the purpose of our friendship with Na Lu Bu?" Chai Huangcheng quickly tapped the table with his fingers.

……

"What we brothers pay is heart, not fame. Will you, Deng Fei, deny us brothers because of tomorrow's world fame?" Qiao Lie stretched out his hand and took a sip of cold water, watching the expression fluctuate because of his words everyone.

"Whether my brother is Lu Bu or not, we can't change our hearts just because of an unfounded guess." Qiao Lie put down the water bowl and let the cold water flow through the esophagus and into the stomach: "Wait, it's important to meet brother For what?"

……

Chai Jin stood there in a daze, looking straight at Chai Huangcheng, but he didn't seem to be looking at him: "For the safety of my Chaijia private salt line, and even the future expansion."

……

Deng Fei calmed down and looked solemn: "I am because of what my brother did, which is in line with the loyalty in my heart."

Xiao Haili put down his big hand that was touching his head: "I admire the strength of the leader, this kind of man is the strong one I should follow."

"Master saved our village, and he is willing to teach me martial arts. I am willing to follow Master."

"My elder brother helped me avenge my righteous brother's family. This kind of kindness can never be repaid. I am willing to lead the horse and fall for my elder brother."

"Brother E Xian has a deep friendship with me. He introduced me, a poor villager, to my elder brother. Instead of belittling me, my elder brother regarded me as a brother. I voluntarily died for him."

……

Chai Huangcheng nodded, stood up and looked at Chai Jin: "Got it?"

"understood."

Chai Huangcheng walked out with his hands behind his back: "Go to sleep if you understand."

Chai Jin sat there motionless, like a sculpture.

Chai Huangcheng put his hand on the door handle, stopped and said, "However, you can create momentum for this Lu Bu. When he becomes stronger, he might not be able to cause chaos in the Song Dynasty. At that time, whether he is real Lu Bu or a fake?" What does Fengxian have to do with it?"

Chai Jin's body trembled, his eyes lit up, blazing frighteningly.

Chai Huangcheng opened the door and walked out of the study, with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, the members of the Chai family seem to be trapped in reincarnation, Jin'er is so similar to the eldest brother and the old man when they were young.

……

"Brothers, if you really love your brother, you should go back and rest, and from now on it will be the same as before." Qiao Lie looked at the calm expressions of everyone, and suddenly smiled: "Brothers in the family should know that the poor are those who cultivate the Tao, and this reincarnated Don’t take it seriously if you say it’s just to guide people to be good.”

Xue Can said with a smile: "Maybe there will be."

Everyone laughed, but they left the room calmly and went back to sleep.

Qiao Lie just smiled and shook his head, watching the crowd come out, closed the door, closed his eyes and held his breath for a moment, then opened them again suddenly, holding the armrest of the seat tightly with both hands, panting violently for a moment, before getting up and facing Lie in bed and go.

Ten fingerprints were clearly left on the armrest of the seat.

For a moment, the house that lost its light covered everything with darkness.

……

The moon hangs in the sky at night, watching everything in the world quietly.

Lu Bu carried the lantern and walked briskly to the Chai family's stable, opened the door and walked in. At this time, the place has changed a lot. There used to be two or three horses tied to each compartment, but now it is prepared for Chitu alone. Got a single room.

Gein has a bad temper, he kicks and bites other horses when he sees them nearby, and the other horses who are often bullied stay aside and dare not move, so the Chai family has no choice but to leave him alone, so as to save other people from being harmed. horses.

Every night, a special person had to watch over it, lest the horse kick open the door and escape with its own strength. Because of this incident, the Chai family injured five or six farmers.

But now it’s better, since I met Lu Bu, the horse seems to have changed, very docile, except that he doesn’t like other horses and people approaching him, and he doesn’t kick and bite people anymore, even pulling him back into the stable is difficult. It was so relaxing that a group of dealers who knew the horse's temperament shouted strangely.

Lu Bu put the lantern aside, opened the fence and walked in. Chitu was grazing, looked back when he heard the sound, snorted and walked over.

Lu Bu came over and touched his neck with his hands, feeling the warmth of his hands, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up: "Aren't you just dreaming? Why did you come with me, you bastard?"

Chitu ignored him and lowered his head to Lu Bu's stomach.

"You guy, you must have suffered a lot after death." Lu Bu stroked the red rabbit's mane with his hand, combing the knotted hair occasionally.

Chitu couldn't speak, just raised his head and snorted, and turned his body sideways.

"Hehe, okay, I'm here to clean up for you." The old man for many years naturally knew the meaning of this action. Lu Bu went to the side and took a brush and came over to help Chitu comb it carefully.

"With you here, so-and-so is no longer alone after all." Lu Bu lightly brushed the Chitu's neck, and the beast narrowed its eyes in comfort.

After brushing off the dirt, Lu Bu began to comb along the direction of the horse hair: "I don't know if other people will come over too, hehe, it would be great if they could, especially Lingqi, who has been growing up since she was a child. Just clingy, I really don't know what will happen to her when she is gone."

Changed to a bigger brush and continued to brush: "When I first came here, I thought that if I could see Gao Shun Chenglian again, they would definitely say sorry."

Lu Bu stopped talking and looked at Chitu's hair in a daze, and suddenly showed a self-deprecating smile: "But if I really saw it, I wouldn't be able to say that, heh, I've always been competitive all my life, how could I ever I've apologized to others. What's more... I can't see you anymore."

Chitu snorted, shook his head, and gave Lü Bu a push to continue.

Only then did Lu Bu start combing the rest of it, and he was still chattering non-stop, completely uncharacteristically reticent: "I thought about it, at that time I shouldn't have listened to Master Wang's instigation, scholars are unreliable , especially that fellow was said to be Wang Zuozhi's talent, hmph! In the end he killed himself, it's worth noting that he doesn't listen to such a great talent.

Unexpectedly, in the end, a certain person could not listen to advice, and still hang out with women all day long, but a certain person became a mixture of Wang Zishi and Dong Zhongying. "

Lu Bu was silent for a while, just combing Chitu's hair, probably because he was not used to the sudden quietness of the stables, Chitu snorted twice and moved the horse's legs.

Lu Bu squatted down and began to clean Chitu's legs, then suddenly said: "Hey! I told you, the Song Dynasty is really useless. It has lost so many lands. Even Youzhou was taken away and could not be taken back. Really! I don't know how these emperors did it. No matter how incompetent our emperor is, he never lost Xiliang and Bingzhou. Heh, Zhemo needs some old bones to help.

Ugh……

Let's see! "

One person and one horse stayed in the stable, a tall and burly man was combing the horse's hair, and the other snorted from time to time, and stood there quietly listening to him. This scene looked strange beyond words. harmonious.
