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

Chapter 602 Chapter 604-605 Lu Zhishen saves people, Xiao Li Guang discusses his own issues [Combined Chapter]

"Of course I remember..."

The corners of Liu Gao's mouth twitched twice secretly:

Yujiaozhi!

The problem is that I remember she didn’t have a little belly!

The bald man is none other than the “Flowery Monk” Lu Zhishen.

Lu Zhishen embarrassedly used his large palm-leaf fan-like hands to fan his shiny bald head:

"Brother, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda...

"I am doing this to save people. Saving people is the most important thing..."

"I see."

Liu Gao patted Lu Zhishen's broad shoulders meaningfully.

As the saying goes, if a man pursues a woman, there is a mountain between them; if a woman pursues a man, there is a gauze between them.

Yu Jiaozhi is interested in Lu Zhishen.

At that time, Lu Zhishen was not a real monk. His six senses were not pure and his worldly ties were not yet over. It was normal for him to be together with Yu Jiaozhi.

Although Lu Zhishen was ordained at Mount Wutai, he did not consider himself a monk in his heart.

Which monk would sleep while meditating, pee and poop behind the Buddha Hall, drink alcohol, eat meat, and knock down the Vajra statue?
In Liu Gao's opinion, Lu Zhishen truly began to act like a monk after defeating the Liao Kingdom and returning to Mount Wutai to see his master, Elder Zhizhen.

It was also at this time that Elder Zhizhen told Lu Zhishen four verses:
Caught in summer, held in December. Round at the sound of the tide, silent at the sight of the letter.

From then on, Lu Zhishen awakened to Buddhahood, and his understanding increased greatly after he met a monk during his first time travel.

The monk said to him, "Everyone has a mind, and if there is a mind, there must be thoughts. Hell and heaven are all born from thoughts. Therefore, the three realms are only the mind, and all things are only consciousness. If a thought does not arise, then the six realms will all be destroyed, and reincarnation will end."

If it were in the past, how could Lu Zhishen have had the patience to listen to him say this?

Even if I listened, I wouldn't understand.

But Lu Zhishen actually understood what was said and bowed to the monk.

In this way, Lu Zhishen was pushed to become more and more like a monk.

Finally, at Liuhe Temple, he "heard the tide and felt round, and saw the faith and felt quiet."

This is the case in the original novel, but Liu Gao changed the plot and made Lu Zhishen marry and have children before his Buddhist nature was awakened.

Liu Gao thought this was a good idea.

He didn't want Lu Zhishen to pass away so early.

After all, no one knows or sees whether Lu Zhishen became a Buddha after his death.

Liu Gao would rather be like now, to see Lu Zhishen get married, have children, be granted a title and become a general, and live a complete life.

Liu Gao looked at Lu Zhishen's shiny bald head with a smile:

"Third brother, don't you plan to grow your hair?"

Lu Zhishen chuckled, and rubbed his shiny bald head with his big hands like a palm leaf fan:
"It's cool after shaving!"

"Alright."

Liu Gao did not force Lu Zhishen to return to his secular appearance.

Anyway, Lu Zhishen is a straightforward person and just wants to be happy.

"Brother, when my baby is born, you have to give him a name!"

Lu Zhishen said with a smile:
"Choose a majestic and domineering one!"

"All right!"

Liu Gao agreed immediately.

My brothers have low educational level, so I guess this will be his job in the future.

"Thank you, uncle!"

Yu Jiaozhi thanked Liu Gao with a happy face.

Under Lu Zhishen's care, she is like a blooming flower!
Liu Gao nodded with a smile.

"Uncle!"

Li Kui pulled over the youngest, burly man who had just been holding onto the side of the boat and broadcasting eloquently:

"This is Tie Niu's new apprentice. Tie Niu is now the master!"

"Oh?"

Liu Gao looked Li Kui's apprentice up and down.

There were also two large axes stuck on his belt. He looked like Li Kui, except that his face was three points more handsome than Li Kui.

Li Kui slapped his apprentice on the back of the head:

"What are you still standing there for? Call me Master!"

His apprentice immediately bowed to Liu Gao and said:

"Disciple Meng Bangjie, I pay my respects to the Master!"

Meng Bangjie?
Liu Gao was stunned:
Isn’t this Fan Rui’s other son-in-law?

He and Tang Huai are brothers-in-law.

Meng Bangjie was also a general of Yue Family Army, and was good at using a pair of iron wheel-shaped Xuanhua axes.

He has amazing arm strength, superb martial arts skills, is a generous person, and hates evil.

Although he is not as good as the Eight Hammers and Seven Spears, he is also considered a powerful general.

I didn't expect that I would become Li Kui's apprentice...

Liu Gao asked Li Kui:
"How did you collect it?"

Li Kui said with a smile:

“Tie Niu passed by Mengjia Village and was mistaken for a robber because of his ferocious appearance.

"My disciple rushed out and wanted to arrest me and bring me to justice.

"I saw he was also using two axes, so I tried to play with him.

“He was no match for Tie Niu, so he became his disciple.

"Uncle, don't look at him as silly, he is only ten years old, still a child!"

How old is this guy?

Liu Gao was stunned:
Meng Bangjie is taller than him, and looks like a smaller version of Li Kui, with a mustache even around his mouth!

He is only ten years old, quite precocious!

"Good."

Liu Gao patted Meng Bangjie's strong shoulders:

"If you cultivate from a young age, your future will be limitless."

Li Kui was very happy: "With Tie Niu teaching him, he will be fine!"

is it?

Liu Gao took a look at Li Kui's fighting power.

It’s really different with a master around, it has increased to 80.

After Lu Zhishen arrived, it was like a switch was turned on, and Wu Song, Hua Rong, and Sun Li also arrived one after another.

"Brother, look!"

Wu Song excitedly showed Liu Gao his battle results:
Song Yulian's belly looks like she is eight months pregnant!
Not only is it big and round, it also bulges forward!
After asking, Liu Gao finally understood what "similar" meant!
Song Yulian is already eight months pregnant!

"Seventh brother, congratulations!"

Liu Gao was happy for Wu Song, but the happiest person was not him, but Wu Dalang!
Wu Dalang was laughing beside him:

"Husband, our family is going to have a new baby, and we have to thank you for this!"

Wu Dalang doesn't want to get married and have children in this life.

So he treated Wu Song's children as his own.

I wish I could help my brother and sister-in-law with their confinement after childbirth!
It would have been fine if Wu Song had come, but Hua Rong actually came with the child in his arms:

"Brother, look at your nephew!"

Liu Gao was shocked when he took it and saw it:
"Eighth brother, when was he born?"

"That was when my eldest brother attacked Tian Hu."

Hua Rong explained: "I didn't want to distract my brother, so I didn't tell him."

Liu Gao blinked his eyes: "Have you chosen a name?"

Hua Rong: "My father-in-law gave me the name Hua Fengchun."

Flowers bloom in spring!

Liu Gao had actually guessed that it was Hua Fengchun.

Hua Fengchun is amazing, he is better than his teacher!

In the "Sequel to Water Margin", he went out to sea with Li Jun and others and encountered a whale at sea.

Hua Fengchun shot an arrow into the whale's eye, which allowed Li Jun and his men to capture the whale.

Later, Hua Fengchun helped Li Jun defeat the Siamese army.

The King of Siam surrendered and married the princess to Hua Fengchun, who became the prince consort of Siam.

Later, the King of Siam was assassinated, and Hua Fengchun killed the rebel who usurped the throne.

The King of Siam had no descendants, so the prince consort Hua Fengchun was supposed to succeed to the throne.

Hua Fengchun did not accept it and gave the throne to Li Jun, who then became the King of Siam.

Hua Fengchun was very powerful, so Liu Gao reserved Hua Fengchun as his son's team. Lu Junyi, Lin Chong, and Guan Sheng all had to hurry up, and Liu Gao planned to ask An Daoquan to help them.

If it doesn't work, just take some medicine and take some rest...

Hua Rong asked with a smile: "Brother, what about you?"

"I?"

Liu Gao subconsciously turned around and looked at Hua Yue Niang who was playing with Hua Fengchun.

Hua Rong was stunned for a moment, then became ecstatic:

"Brother, you and my sister..."

Liu Gao nodded embarrassedly.

The girl followed me out originally to protect me closely.

As a result, I almost protected myself in the quilt...

"Great!"

Hua Rong has been looking forward to this day:

"Brother, we are now even closer than before!"

Liu Gao smiled: "That's right, a closer relationship!"

Li Kui interrupted: "Uncle, Eighth Uncle, what are you going to say in the future?"

"Ah this..."

Hua Rong was stunned: It’s really hard to say…

"It's alright, let's talk about our own affairs."

Liu Gao smiled and put his arm around Hua Rong's shoulders:

"From now on, you can call me brother-in-law, and I will still call you Eighth Brother!"

"This is good!"

Hua Rong: "Brother-in-law!"

Liu Gao: "Eighth brother!"

Huayue Niang: (_)
……

On New Year’s Eve, it snowed heavily.

Everyone gathered in the Juyi Hall.

In addition to the local heroes of Liangshan Lake, in Shandong:

Lu Zhishen, Li Kui, and Meng Bangjie came to Erlong Mountain;

Wu Song and Shi Xiu came to Wutou City;

Sun Li and Le He came to Dengyun Mountain;
Hua Rong came to Qingzhou;

Kong Ming and Kong Liang came to Qingfeng Village;
Zhu Tong and Ou Peng came from Yuncheng County.

Hebei Province:

Hu Yanzhuo, Niu Gao, Shan Shiqi, and Tang Bin came from Gaizhou;
Lu Junyi, Shi Jin, and Yang Zaixing came from Jinning Prefecture;

Suo Chao and Wu Li came from Zhaode Prefecture;
Guan Sheng, Bian Xiang, Hao Siwen, Xuan Zan and others came to Taihang Mountain;
Yang Zhi, Sun Qi, Wen Zhongrong, Lu Hui and others came to Baodui Mountain...

Even though everyone hadn't arrived yet, the huge Juyi Hall was already packed, and the outer hall was also full of people.

Liu Gaoduan stood up with his wine bowl in his hand and looked around with high spirits:
"Brothers, it's New Year's Day!

"I offer a bowl of wine to my brothers, and wish you all the best in the coming year!"

Everyone quickly stood up with their wine bowls in hand and drank the full bowl of wine in one gulp to show their respect.

There are two tables in the corner of the hall that are the most special.

Sitting around the table were Gongsun Sheng's apprentices Fan Rui and Dai Zong, Lu Zhishen's apprentice Li Kui, Lu Junyi's apprentices Shi Jin and Yang Zaixing, Lin Chong's apprentices Cao Zheng, Mu Hong, Lu Fang, Guo Sheng and the newly recruited Zhang Qing, Wu Song's apprentice Shi Xiu and Hua Rong's apprentices Kong Ming and Kong Liang.

It can be said that the second generation of Liu Gao and his nine brothers are all here.

As the second generation of the "Nine Righteous Men of Liangshan", they are of course closer than other heroes.

Except for Fan Rui and Dai Zong who were talking about Taoism, everyone else was talking about martial arts, and they were chatting enthusiastically.

But as they were chatting, two people ran out of things to say. They were Hua Rong's apprentices Kong Ming and Kong Liang.

It’s not that other people isolated the two brothers, it’s just that Kong Ming and Kong Liang’s martial arts were too poor to get a word in…

Kong Ming and Kong Liang sat there with nothing to say, feeling very awkward, and Hua Rong looked very depressed at Liu Gao's table.

Although Hua Rong didn't know the level of his brothers' disciples, he estimated that Kong Ming and Kong Liang were the worst.

Especially compared with Li Kui, Shi Jin, Yang Zaixing, Lu Fang, Zhang Qing, and Shi Xiu, the gap is even greater.

Hua Rong was very depressed:

Why were all the good seedlings taken away by the brothers?

Where am I missing?
Liu Gao seemed to have heard his thoughts and glanced at him.

Actually Hua Rong is not bad.

It’s just that all the brothers are geniuses, so Hua Rong seems to be at the bottom.

Not really. The one at the bottom is Yue Fei, with a military strength value of 93.

This year, Hua Rong's martial arts value increased to 94, narrowly defeating Yue Fei.

But don't forget that Yue Fei was still a child.

After all, Hua Rong was his brother-in-law, so Liu Gao thought about it and decided to introduce Hua Rong to Zhou Tong.

Since Zhou Tong was willing to teach Hua Yue Niang, it was impossible for him not to teach Hua Rong.

And to be honest, Hua Rong is more suitable to inherit Zhou Tong's archery skills than Hua Yue Niang.

Just then, there was a sudden commotion at the children's table.

Liu Gao looked towards the children's table, and saw Yang Zaixing and Kong Ming walking out together under the urging of everyone.

Cao Zheng was older and more mature, so he quickly trotted over to report to Liu Gao and the others:
"Master, fellow uncles and uncles, Junior Brother Kong and Junior Brother Yang are chatting happily and want to exchange martial arts..."

The brothers all looked at Hua Rong and Lu Junyi.

As the elder brother, Lu Junyi said with a smile:

“The kids are just sparring with each other, don’t make a fuss.

"Let's continue drinking!"

Hua Rong suggested: "Brothers, how about we go out and see what's going on?"

Lu Zhishen likes this:

"Great! Let's go see what's going on!"

Since Lu Zhishen supported Hua Rong, Liu Gao and the others got up and went out to watch the two children compete.

As soon as Liu Gao and his men moved, all the brothers stood up and walked out of the Juyi Hall to watch Kong Ming and Yang Zaixing spar.

In front of the Juyi Hall there was a mirror that looked like a flat ground, about three to five hundred feet square, which was enough for Kong Ming and Yang Zaixing to do whatever they wanted.

Kong Ming held a steel spear, and Yang Zaixing held a rotten silver spear, the barrel of which was as thick as a wine glass.

"Junior Brother Yang, make your move!"

Kong Ming was very unhappy.

It's not that I have any bad intentions, I just feel that I'm being overwhelmed by a group of junior brothers.

As he and Yang Zaixing had different opinions on spearmanship and could not win the argument, Kong Ming decided to put the match into a fight.

Being watched by so many people including Liu Gao, Kong Ming felt that his chance to prove himself had come!

Yang Zaixing was young and didn't bother to be polite with him. He stepped forward and fired a shot straight at Kong Ming's throat!
Straight bitch!
Kong Ming was startled and hurriedly took a step back, avoiding the rotten silver spear while stabbing Yang Zaixing with a spear!

However, he did not expect that Yang Zaixing's fast and fierce shot was actually a feint. He then turned sideways and held the gun with one hand!
"Shh-"

With the added length of an arm, the tip of Yang Zaixing's gun reached Kong Ming's throat first!
The tip of Kong Ming's spear pierced his chest and missed...

"hiss--"

Everyone couldn't help but gasp:
Flash sale?

No, they are all disciples of the Nine Heroes of Liangshan, so is the difference in their martial arts so big?

"Don't show off!"

When Lu Junyi saw Hua Rong's unhappy face, he pointed at Yang Zaixing and shouted:
"I will teach you my trump card to save your life!
"You are not allowed to use it unless it is a life-and-death situation. Why did you use it when sparring with your senior brother?"

Yang Zaixing was stunned: This thing... is also called a killer weapon?
But Yang Zaixing was smart and immediately bowed to Lu Junyi and confessed his crime:

"Master, I realize my mistake!"

In fact, Hua Rong also knew that this was not a killer move, but Lu Junyi's statement undoubtedly helped him save face.

Hua Rong then pointed at Kong Ming with a smile:

"I always tell you to study hard and practice diligently, but you never listen!

"Do you know how powerful it is now?"

Kong Ming smiled bitterly: "Master, I know I was wrong..."

"Brothers, let's take this opportunity to hold a martial arts competition in Liangshanpo!"

Liu Gao helped them divert their attention:
"Whether in Shandong or Hebei, heroes gather here!

"I have decided to select the 'Five Tigers' through a martial arts competition to become the top generals of Liangshan!

"Select the 'Ten Tigers' as first-rate generals!
"The 'Eighteen Cavalrymen' were selected as quasi-first-class generals!
"The Five Tigers, the Ten Beasts and the Eighteen Warriors are the backbone of our Liangshan. They will be the main generals in the future uprisings!"
