Water Margin Survival

As the night darkened, the whole Liaoerwa gradually returned to tranquility.

Except for the unstoppable north wind that was still blowing strongly, there was no human voice after Shanqian Pass, and even the night watchmen stopped coming out, just cowering in the thick blanket to avoid the cold.

The dim candlelight from a solitary lamp came out from the window of a stone house in the back mountain, and the crackling sound of charcoal burning in the house added a faint breath of vitality to this sleepy night.

At this time, two depressed people in the stone house were sitting idly, fiddling with the charcoal fire in the basin, and sighing plaintively from time to time, the dim light of the fire in the basin reflected on their faces, making their sad expressions extraordinarily gloomy .

"Okay, third child, don't make that carbon anymore, you can't even see the fire!" Only one of them said.

"Alas..." The man known as the third sighed again, and said with a double entendre: "Seventh brother, it's very important not to see the fire, but now you and I have no hope at all!"

It turned out that these two people were Yan Qi and Jia San who Du Qian ordered to stay in front of the bed to take care of Wang Lun.

"Who says it's not! I'm a person who can read a few words anyway, and put my heart and soul into this decapitation business. Why? I thought I could follow him..." At this point, Yan Qi stood up , subconsciously changed to a seat with the back facing the hospital bed, and then complained, "I thought that following him would lead to a fortune, but this man is so short-lived, and we are here to accompany him to wait for death!"

When Jia Sanyi heard Yan Qi speak so bluntly, he was taken aback, and subconsciously peeped at the patient on the bed, but this action immediately brought a burst of ridicule, "Why, are you afraid that he will wake up and hear it? How long have you heard?" Such a big man, have you ever heard of someone who was struck by lightning and survived? That is, Du Qian and Song Wan have some loyalty, so he took the trouble to treat his dead horse as a living horse doctor!"

"Ah? Then you were yelling in front of everyone just now... But the village master is obviously still moving, why are you so sure?" Jia San couldn't help but feel guilty and asked hastily.

Yan Qi smiled noncommittally, and said, "I have always said that if you have no knowledge, then you are ignorant. This is called returning to the light, understand? Being struck by lightning is a punishment from the gods! Let alone the local doctors of the prefectures and counties, even if you invite the imperial doctor How is it? From my point of view, he is absolutely hopeless this time, you and I should make plans early!" Having said this, Yan Qi spat on the ground fiercely, and then said, "This guy won't live for a few more days, Shanzhai Sooner or later, leader Du will be in charge. I see that he is surrounded by rough people, how can he be as smart as you and me? Tomorrow, I will go and talk to leader Du during the burial. , are you afraid that you won't be able to find an errand with your confidant? Hmph!"

Jia San was quite moved when he heard the words, but he was still a little uneasy and said, "Is this really going to happen? You and I have been following the village master after all. Does leader Du have any ideas?"

"Can you have any ideas? It's not that you don't know! Chief Du is a straight surname, and he is not as stupid as this guy, but you and I have suffered so much turbidity in the past, and how much care we have lost! According to me, if you follow Chief Du, life will be much easier in the future!" After speaking, Yan Qi laughed quite complacently.

"These words really speak to my heart! If you want to talk about the leader of the village, the village master is the one with the deepest knowledge. Du and Song are really good-hearted, and they really get along with each other!" Jia San was turned around by his words. , also nodded in response.

"Even if Du Qian doesn't understand gold and jade, and doesn't understand our benefits, just relying on the benefits earned in the past half a year is enough for you and me to spend the rest of our lives! Waiting to find an opportunity to go down the mountain, Find a place where no one knows us, marry a few wives and concubines, buy dozens of acres of fertile land, and become a rich man safely, isn't it more comfortable than serving people here?" Speaking of this, Yan Qi recalled Wang Lun's kindness in the past, and sent the brazier to the bedside with his feet.

The two of them had hope in their hearts, and they no longer had the mournful faces just now, but felt that the more they talked, the more they became more energetic. At the end, they couldn't hold back their wanton laughter, and they regarded Wang Lun on the bed as a dead person.

……

"Where are my confidants!?"

A scream from the heart startled Wang Lun who was thinking wildly on the hospital bed.It made all the muscles in his body tremble, and suddenly he felt a surge of stale air in his chest, making him unable to breathe.

I don't know how long it took, the indescribable feeling of depression in my heart finally gradually dissipated, and my body gradually regained consciousness. The original discomfort symptoms seemed to disappear without a trace with the sudden and flickering scream. .Wang Lun tried to move his fingers and toes, and they were as flexible as before.

He couldn't help wondering for a while, completely unable to understand what happened just now.Since he woke up, this was the first time that he strongly felt the abnormality of this specific soul. Could it be that the conversation between the two people under the bed just now touched the residual consciousness in this body?And where did you see the wailing that startled you?Ah, yes!Isn't this the last sentence Lin Chonghuo left when he merged with Wang Lun that day!

Wang Lun was stunned for a while, still puzzled.Science has been unable to explain the various encounters that happened to him.He shook his head secretly, what's the use of thinking about it now?

is not that right?

It is useless to complain, useless to be angry, and useless to cry.None of these can change everything that has become an established fact. Now, in the Water Margin world in the late Northern Song Dynasty, he is no longer a spectator. With the whistle of fate, he is replaced. Blessing or curse, he has already replaced the former Wang Lun.

Let it go, if it comes, let it go!

Thinking of this, he finally broke free from his depression, and secretly swore in his heart: "Okay! Since I have come to this era, I should leave something behind, so I can't really become a soy sauce man? Forget it, Jin Guo Liao Kingdom, Chao Gai of Song Jiang, it has never been my character to sit and wait for death, since there is no way to retreat, and there is no way to turn back, then let myself, the "new" Lord of Water Pond, compose a new song of praise for the heroes of Liangshan!"

Of course, the premise of all this is to survive!

……

"Boom... boom..."

A few moderate but rhythmic knocks on the door made Wang Lun withdraw his thoughts.At the same time, they interrupted the two people who were having a good time talking beside the brazier, Yan Qi and Jia San hurriedly stopped talking, squeezed some sympathy on their faces, and went to open the door.

Two men of medium stature and shrewd faces stepped into the room and asked the value, "I just heard laughter in the room, but the village master is awake?"

"The village master is still asleep, laughing... the noise is the two of us praying for the village master!" Yan Qi used his quick wits and hurriedly explained.

The visitor glanced at each other, all of them frowned slightly, with suspicion on their faces, but they stopped entangled with Yan Qi and Jia San, and the two went straight to the bedside.

The two staying behind followed closely with guilt, Jia San was a little speechless and said: "Just now the village master seemed to be conscious, but the movement of the arm did not mean to wake up! Two brothers, could it be that the village master and his old man came back to light gone?"

The two visitors glared at Jia San and did not answer. They just stepped forward to tuck Wang Lun in the quilt, and looked at the bedside again. Seeing that Wang Lun was still silent, they did not leave immediately. , Instead, he picked up the stool seat.

Seeing that the visitors didn't intend to leave, they sat down instead, Yan Qi and Jia San lowered their heads secretly, for fear that their complacent behavior just now would attract scolding.

Sure enough, not long after, one of the guests was the first to ask, "Yan Qi, Jia San, tell me, how does the village master treat us?"

"This, this... kindness is as heavy as a mountain, kindness is as heavy as a mountain..." The two were taken aback for a moment, and then hurriedly replied.

"Then why are you two so negligent, laughing and making noise in front of the village master's hospital bed?" another person answered and asked.

Yan Qi and Jia San's eyes met in private, and then they dispersed immediately, only to hear Yan Qi reply with a look of panic, "I, I waited until I saw the village master and there was a little movement. I couldn't be happier, so I forgot to go, please two brothers." Punishment!"

The faces of the two questioners improved a little after hearing this, and the person closest to the bed said: "Don't think about it, you two, I think the four of us are valued by the village master and are taken as confidantes. Now the village master If you are in trouble, don't let yourself get in the way!"

"If it's just a common headache, it's fine, it'll be fine after a while, but the village master was struck by lightning this time, I'm afraid it's bad luck..." Jia San couldn't help muttering.Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the visitor, "Stop! Don't talk nonsense and offend the village master's noble body, can you two bear the responsibility?"

"Old Zheng is right, you two don't panic! Both Lao Zheng and I have duties, so we can't stay by the village master's side all the time. You have to wait a long time to serve the village master! When the village master wakes up in the future, Could it be that your contributions will be forgotten? Keep your spirits up and don't be negligent!" Seeing his companion's sharp words, the other spoke to smooth things over.

Yan Qi and Jia San didn't dare to say anything else, they just nodded in agreement, after listening to the training, they remembered that they hadn't poured tea for the visitors, so they hurriedly got up to find a cup of water.

The two took the tea and put it aside, without touching their mouths, they still enlightened Yan Jia and the other with earnest words.

Wang Lun heard every word of the conversation of the people in front of the hospital bed, but at this moment he was not very angry at the ungrateful behavior of Yan Jia and his wife.As the saying goes, there is no filial son in front of Daojiu's hospital bed, let alone this temporary attachment relationship?Maybe it's because he didn't pay, so he didn't expect anything in return. At this moment, he suddenly understood the remnant soul that had just passed away not long ago.

Good luck, old man.I only hope that you will not be so ignorant in this life in the next life.

After sighing for a while, he lay on the bed and listened quietly to the conversation for a while, guessing that these four people might be Wang Lun's confidantes who stayed on the mountain. According to the description in the Water Margin, Wang Lun was killed by Lin Chong When the fire broke out, these few people didn't say they were desperate for the Lord, but they never let go of a word of cruelty, they were really pussy.However, judging from the quite different performances of the two groups of people at this time, the two visitors seem to have some knowledge, and they cannot simply be classified as scumbags with Yan Qi and Jia San.

He carefully searched for the memories of these two people in his mind, but unfortunately he found nothing. Not only the two visitors, but also everyone on Liangshan had no memory of the affairs. The physical body has already erased the memory of the past spiritual consciousness, and I might pretend to have amnesia.

well!Just pretend to be, this is also impossible.After some deliberation, Wang Lun opened his eyes.

The oil lamp that first came into view was dimly maintained, and the faint flame flickered so heart-palpitating that it made people worry that it would be swallowed by darkness at any time.Shuo Feng outside the window was screaming vigorously at this moment, as if to make a footnote for the scene in front of him.

"Ahem... Where am I?" Wang Lun coughed lightly, and spoke the first words after a thousand years.
