Water Margin: Lu Bu sits on Mount Liang

Chapter 82 Shijie Village ([-])
"This is Shijie Village?"

Lu Bu looked at the stone tablet erected at the entrance of the village, and then at the village in front of him.

The fishing village is not big, surrounded by lush green trees on both sides, wrapping dozens of thatched huts in the middle, and only one dirt road that can drive horses and horses leads to the village and forks, connecting the fishing village with the outside world.

"It's here." Qiao Lie and Ma Ling followed behind, and nodded affirmatively when they heard Lu Bu's words.

Behind them are two minions standing there with burdens, waiting for their leader to make a decision.

Lu Bu glanced at the village with some old houses, looked at the dried fish drying at the door of the hut, said nothing, and walked in first, followed by everyone behind him.

"Master, there seems to be something wrong with the atmosphere." Ma Ling moved behind Lu Bu and whispered.

There were people coming and going in the village at this time, some people gathered in groups of three or four, and some people were sitting at the door with wine jars in their hands, but everyone's face was full of indignation, and they muttered something dirty.

Lu Bu glanced at them, then looked away and said, "Don't mind your own business, it's important to find someone."

"Oh." Ma Ling nodded, looked around, rolled his eyes and said, "I'll find someone to ask."

Seeing a bald man sitting on the bluestone in front of a hut next to him, sighing, Ma Ling ran over quickly, squatted beside him and said, "Man, I want to ask you, do you know where Ruan Xiaoer's family is?"

The person sitting on the bluestone was Diao Gui. Hearing the words, he turned his head and looked at Ma Ling, and saw that he was a stranger, dressed very neatly, although his face was friendly, but there was an indescribable arrogance faintly.

As if feeling something, he looked sideways at Lu Bu and Qiao Lie who were standing there, and saw that although they were well dressed, one of them gave a huge sense of oppression, while the other looked smart and capable in a Taoist robe , such a three-person match is very rare, and there are two companions standing behind carrying the burden, looking back at Ma Ling with some vigilance and asking: "Why are you looking for the second brother?"

Ma Ling grinned, showing his white teeth: "I want to find him for a business, I wonder if you can introduce him."

"Business?" Diao Gui's expression was a little strange: "If it's a fishing business, you don't need to look for him."

"Why?" Ma Ling stood up in confusion.

Diao Gui smiled wryly: "All the boats have been confiscated by the government, and no one can go out to fish. Even if you find the second brother, you will answer like this."

Lu Bu frowned when he heard this, and glanced at Qiao Lie.

Qiao Lie nodded, stepped forward and patted Ma Ling on the shoulder, motioning for Ma Ling to step back, and bowed himself: "The Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! This layman invites you."

Diao Gui quickly stood up and respectfully replied, "Don't dare, what orders does the priest have?"

Qiao Lie raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "The layman is so generous, is there any believer in the family?"

"The old lady at home is a believer, so the villain never dares to be disrespectful to the Taoist priest."

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!" Qiao Lie proclaimed the Daoist again, and said to Diao Gui: "We really have something to discuss with the brothers of the Ruan family, and I hope that the layman will make it easier for me to take me there."

Diao Gui lowered his head and thought for a while. He also knew that the Ruan family brothers were short of money. It would be bad if it really blocked their way of making money. He looked up at Qiao Lie and said, "In that case, please invite the Taoist priest to come with the villain, the villain Take Yun to Ruan's house, only the second brother and fifth brother are not there, but the seventh brother is."

Qiao Lie smiled and said, "It's the same for everyone, the business is for the three of them."

……

"Master, what's the matter?" Ma Ling was clever, seeing that Qiao Lie took the initiative to ask him to step down, it must be that Lu Bu had something to ask him.

Lu Bu looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he replied in a low voice: "Something is wrong, you go and check around to see if Yuncheng County has sent troops, if you find anything, come back and report."

"Yes, Master." Ma Ling straightened his face and walked out quickly.

……

"Since that's the case, please come with me." Diao Gui readily agreed, as the whole family of the Ruan family, he also hoped that his friends would live better.

"Hey? Where is that little brother going?" Diao Gui was about to turn around when he suddenly saw Ma Ling running away, so he couldn't help but ask a little strangely.

"I forgot something, let him fetch it." Lu Bu walked over, his tall and burly figure cast a shadow, and Diao Gui, who was used to being honest, couldn't help swallowing.

"Oh." Diao Gui didn't know what to say, so he had to turn around and walk to the other side, saying: "Brother Xiaoqi usually likes to hang out outside, and he doesn't have a house. He only lives on a boat, and now the boat has been confiscated by the government." , I have to go to Little Fifth Brother."

Lu Bu Qiaolie glanced at each other, and both of them followed behind Diao Gui, and the two minions hurriedly carried their burdens to keep up.

"The three brothers don't live together?" Qiao Lie asked curiously.

Diao Gui smiled and said: "The second brother separated after he got married. The second brother's family lived in the village, and he built two houses by himself. The fifth brother brought his godmother together, and only the seventh brother Impatient at home, being told by the godmother to move out and live on the boat."

"Oh~" Qiao Lie nodded, looked at Lu Bu's thoughtful expression, and asked again: "When did the government collect the ships?"

Diao Gui sighed in front of him, his body hunched up in front of his eyes: "Around noon, I also caught a big fish, but now it's gone."

"The government even confiscated the fish?" Lu Bu frowned, as if he couldn't believe it.

Diao Gui smiled wryly: "Exactly, I still wanted to trade that fish for some food, but now it's all in vain."

Pointing to the thatched hut in front of him, he turned his head and said, "Here we are, this is Little Fifth Brother's house."

Then he turned around and shouted: "Brother Qi, Brother Xiao Qi, someone is looking for you."

Lu Buqiao looked at the house, it was a bit dilapidated, there was a small piece of bare roof on the thatched roof, obviously the owner was lazy and did not repair it.The ground of the yard was cleaned up, but some objects that needed strength to be moved were placed in a mess. There were a few broken fishing nets drying on one side of the yard, and a few dried fish hanging under the eaves.

"Come here, come here, which bird has nothing to do and come to me."

An impatient voice came out, and then Ruan Xiaoqi's strange face appeared: "Brother Gui..."

Glancing at Lu Bu's outstanding figure and presence that cannot be ignored, he couldn't help being startled, scanned the crowd and asked, "Who are you?"

Qiao Lie stood up with a smile and said: "Brother Xiaoqi invited, the poor Taoist Dharma is Daoqing, this time I came here with my brother because I want to discuss a business with Brother Yun."

Ruan Xiaoqi's face was startled, and his eyes narrowed: "Brother Gui, my mother is still talking about you today, you go in and talk to her for a while."

Diao Gui looked at Ruan Xiaoqi, then at Lu Bu and the others, agreed and went inside.

Ruan Xiaoqi walked out of the room, clasped his fists at everyone and saluted, "I've seen all the heroes, what can I do for you?"

Qiao Lie looked at the curious eyes of the neighbors, frowned and said, "This is not a place to talk, but is there a quiet place? I'll bring wine and meat, but I can talk while eating."

Ruan Xiaoqi lowered his head and thought for a while: "Go to my second brother's house."

"I heard from that brother just now, isn't the second brother here?" Qiao Lie asked suspiciously.

Ruan Xiaoqi smiled strangely: "Yes, come with me."

Then he shouted towards the house: "Mother, let me go out for a while. Brother Gui, please take care of my mother."

Lu Bu and the others had no choice but to follow him around again, and not long after they arrived at a house near the pier at the head of the village.

Lu Bu and the others looked into the distance, and saw dozens of officers and soldiers divided into several small teams guarding there, and a group of sergeants patrolled back and forth, but they seemed to be walking loosely, which was very awkward.

"Second brother, second brother."

Ruan Xiaoqi's voice called everyone's attention back, Lu Bu and others looked at this residence, there are two more wing rooms than Ruan Xiaowu's just now, the house is neatly repaired, and the yard is also clean.

"Your second brother is dead!"

A woman opened the door with a bang and shouted, and saw that she was wearing a coarse cloth dress, with an old hairpin on her head, no jewelry on her body, and she was pinching her waist and looking at Ruan Xiaoqi.

"Ah, there are guests." The woman was surprised when she saw several men beside Ruan Xiaoqi, she quickly put on a smile, and shouted inside: "The head of the house, the head of the house, there are guests."

"I'm coming."

A low-pitched male voice sounded, and then a strong man came out, but he saw his face raised, his brows raised, and he punched all around.There is yellow hair on the chest, and two ribs grow horizontally on the back.There are thousands of catties of strength in the arms, and tens of thousands of cold lights shine from the eyes.Don't say that a fisherman in the village is the true Tai Sui in the world.

"Brother Seven." Ruan Xiaoer called out to Ruan Xiaoqi, and looked at Lu Bu and the others as they clasped their fists together: "It turns out that there are distinguished guests coming, but we are far away to welcome them."

Lu Bu had sharp eyes, and there were several red marks on the side of Ruan Xiaoer's neck, which were obviously scratched by someone, and when he thought of Ruan Xiaoqi's strange face before, his face also became strange.

Feeling amused and emotional, Lu Bu clasped his fists and said, "It's not surprising that people from the mountains come to disturb you."

"Second brother, open the door first." Ruan Xiaoqi was impatient and urged repeatedly.

Ruan Xiaoer smiled, opened the firewood gate, and let everyone into the yard.

"Let's find a quiet place first." Ruan Xiaoqi patted Ruan Xiaoer and winked.

Ruan Xiaoer was startled for a moment, then understood: "This way please."

Then he said to his mother-in-law: "Sir, let's go into the house and watch the child."

The woman didn't say a word, turned around and entered the room and closed the door.

Ruan Xiaoer went to a wing room and opened the door to go in, Ruan Xiaoqi followed him into the room.

Lu Bu took the lead and walked towards the house first.Qiao Lie wanted to hold him back, raised his arm halfway up and put it down again, followed behind and motioned for the two minions to follow.

Ruan Xiaoqi saw a few people entering the room, closed the door, and asked: "Who are the guests, should they be able to tell the truth."

Qiao Lie squinted his eyes and smiled, and stretched out his hand to signal: "The villain is not to be bullied, and the pretty is not to be concealed. The poor man is Qiao Lie, the illusory demon king. This is my brother Lu Bu, the jade-faced flying general. I am waiting to hang out in Liangshan."

Ruan Xiaoer and Ruan Xiaoqi turned pale with shock, and hurriedly asked, "But Xiangri killed brother Lu Bu, the black-faced plague god in Hebei?"

Lu Bu nodded, looked at the two of them calmly and said, "It's a certain person who met little two brothers and little seven brothers."
