Water Margin: You dog official, you still say you don’t know martial arts?

Chapter 33: Lin Chong adds icing on the cake, Liu Gao helps in times of need
[Yu Baosi's favorability -1000! ]

In fact, Liu Gao had already guessed that this female horse thief who looked like the sun and the moon was the dangerous god Yu Baosi!

After all, he was ten feet tall and his waist was several circumferences wide. There were not many people with such a figure in the entire Water Margin world...

Originally Liu Gao was still thinking about how to deal with Yu Baosi, but as soon as he saw Lu Zhishen, he forgot about Yu Baosi.

So the question is, how to deal with Yu Baosi?
If Yu Baosi had not sent people upstairs to kill Liu Gao, Liu Gao might have considered giving him a chance!
After all, Liu Gao was in need of someone...

But when he thought about how he was almost forced to jump off the building, Liu Gao waved his hand at Jiao Ting without hesitation.

Brother, I understand!

Jiao Ting understood what he meant and grabbed Yu Baosi's head and twisted it!
"Snap" the earth turned upside down!
[Yu Baosi's favorability -10000! ]

This was the last thought that Yu Baosi left for Liu Gao...

Liu Gao turned around and forgot about his thoughts, and went happily to drink with Lu Zhishen.

……

"It's hard to describe in words..."

After three rounds of wine and five kinds of dishes, Lu Zhishen and Liu Gao started to complain with tears:
"…I was managing the vegetable garden at Daxiangguo Temple when I met the Leopard Head Lin Chong who was being framed by General Gao to kill him.

"I saw injustice and sent him straight to Cangzhou, saving his life.

"Unexpectedly, the two escort officers came back and told Gao Qiu, 'He was about to kill Lin Chong in the Wild Boar Forest, but was saved by Lu Zhishen from the Daxiangguo Temple. The monk took him straight to Cangzhou, so he couldn't harm him.'

"That day my mother wanted to kill me, so she ordered the elders in the temple not to let me hang around, and she also sent people to arrest me.

"But a group of ruffians reported that it was not that guy who had done it.

"I set fire to the house in the vegetable garden and fled into the world.

"Neither east nor west..."

It must be said that what Lin Chong did was indeed immoral!

If Lu Zhishen had not intervened, Lin Chong would have been killed by Dong Chao and Xue Ba in the Wild Boar Forest!
In order to protect Lin Chong, Lu Zhishen even traveled thousands of miles to send Lin Chong from Tokyo to Cangzhou!
As a result, Lin Chong turned around and betrayed Lu Zhishen!

In the original novel, the two officials Dong Chao and Xue Ba who were ordered to kill Lin Chong wanted to find out Lu Zhishen's background, but Lu Zhishen pointed it out at the time:

"What are you two asking me where I live for?

"Why don't you go and ask Gao Qiu what he can do to me?"

Finally, before leaving, Lu Zhishen broke a pine tree with his stick in order to warn Dong Chao and Xue Ba not to harm Lin Chong!
After Lu Zhishen left, Dong Chao and Xue Ba were amazed that Lin Chong was bragging for Lu Zhishen:
"What's so great about this? It's like pulling up a willow tree in Xiangguo Temple with its roots."

Although this is true, does Lu Zhishen need his help to brag about it?

Could it be that Lin Chong didn't expect that Dong Chao and Xue Ba would report to Gao Qiu and take revenge on Lu Zhishen?
Isn't this repaying kindness with hatred?

Whenever Liu Gao saw this, he found it unbelievable, mainly because he couldn't understand what Lin Chong was trying to do.

What benefit would it bring to him if he betrayed Lu Zhishen?
Liu Gao finally figured it out, but Lin Chong probably never thought of it!
In fact, Lin Chong at that time can be described in five words:
So silly and naive!
Although Lin Chong was already in his thirties at that time, he was not as smart as he seemed because he had had a smooth life without any setbacks.

For example, Gao Yanei was caught molesting Mrs. Lin by Lin Chong. Such a big thing, Lin Chong actually thought that if he let Gao Yanei go, Gao Yanei would let him go!

For example, Lin Chong bought a precious sword and cheered:

“That’s a good knife!

"There is a precious sword in the mansion of General Gao, but he refuses to let anyone see it. I asked him to lend it to me several times, but he refused to give it to me.

"I also bought this good knife today, and will slowly compete with him."

Good fellow, you know that General Gao’s precious sword is not shown to others, yet you still want to borrow it to have a look!
Borrow it several times, which means you have to borrow it again even if it is rejected several times!

How blind and shameless this is!
That would have been fine, but Lin Chong actually wanted to compete with General Gao in swordplay!

No, who do you think you are?
Another example is when Lin Chong was exiled to Cangzhou, he wrote a divorce letter before leaving, thinking that Gao Yanei would let his wife go as long as he cut off all ties with him. But Gao Yanei forced his wife to hang herself!
Lin Chong is indeed not a bad person.

It’s just that he has never experienced the harshness of society and his mind is too naive.

Therefore, when Liu Gao took Lin Chong in later, he must have trained him well, otherwise he would just be a thug.

Although Lin Chong betrayed Lu Zhishen unintentionally, it actually caused Lu Zhishen to flee from the world!
Even though Dong Chao and Xue Ba could have guessed it themselves even if Lin Chong had not betrayed Lu Zhishen, Lu Zhishen still held the account accountable to Lin Chong.

After Lu Zhishen went to Liangshan, he had almost no communication with Lin Chong.

He completely ignored him, the brother with whom he became friends at first sight.

The time when Lu Zhishen was on the run can be said to be the most miserable time in his life.

Although Lu Zhishen only used eight words "neither east nor west" to describe this period of time...

But for a man of iron will like Lu Zhishen, it is clear how difficult it was for him to say these eight words.

Busy as a lost dog, anxious as a fish that has escaped the net, frightened as a frightened bird, sad as a rat crossing the street...

"Who said you were neither here nor there?"

Liu Gao held Lu Zhishen's hands and said firmly:
"From today on you are my brother!

“My home is your home!
"If you can't get anywhere, my family will be destroyed!"

boom--

Liu Gao's heartfelt words exploded in Lu Zhishen's mind like thunder!

[Lu Zhishen's favorability +500! ]

[Congratulations to the host and Lu Zhishen for becoming “casual friends”! ]

[Congratulations to the master and Lu Zhishen for becoming "friends of righteousness"! ]

"Brothers……"

Lu Zhishen, who thought he was betrayed by Lin Chong, was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes at this moment!

The voice was choked!

After receiving the system prompt, Liu Gao decisively struck while the iron was hot:

"If the master does not despise me for being a useless scholar who can't even tie a chicken, I would like to become your brother!

"Brothers, we don't want to be born on the same day, but we want to die on the same day!"

[Lu Zhishen's favorability +1000! ]

[Congratulations to the master and Lu Zhishen for becoming "inseparable friends"! ]

boom--

Liu Gao's initiative proposal caused a storm in Lu Zhishen's heart!
You know, he is a fugitive now!

There's nothing but fat!

The fact that Liu Gao was willing to become brothers with him at this moment was enough to prove that Liu Gao was sincere!

This is different from the brotherhood between Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen!
The brotherhood between Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen is just the icing on the cake!
Liu Gao and Lu Zhishen became sworn brothers, which was a timely help!

Lu Zhishen held Liu Gao's hands tightly and nodded vigorously with tears in his eyes:

"Good brother, I do!"

[Lu Zhishen's favorability +1000! ]
