Water Margin Survival

The addition of Yan Jiao really made the escorting soldiers stir for a while.Especially those soldiers who told him to knock down the ground before, now they looked at the scorpion with complicated eyes, showing fear and resentment at the same time.

Although Wang Lun had told the Xiang army that he wanted to hire this big black man to take care of the nursing home, but the journey was still long, and he knew that something would go wrong sooner or later.

Don't be too late!

That night, Wang Lun called the deputy army leading the team, and asked him to call a few Xiang soldiers who were beaten. He first calmed the crowd with good words, and then launched an offensive with silver bullets.

Looking at the amiable Wang Lun, what else can these people do?At this time, the heaviness of the silver ingots in their hands may have replaced the pain on their bodies, and most people had no choice but to accept the money in pain and happiness.Of course, there are also one or two rebellious ones, who still thought about going to the state capital along the way to sue, but when they saw the immediate boss standing next to the rich man with a charming smile on his face, they felt cold in their hearts, and immediately turned off their words. idea.

"Military teacher, why did you spend money with these fellows that night? Is it not good for me to go down and send them away?" After several days in a row, Li Juan still had a grudge against Wang Lun's behavior in his heart.

Wang Lun smiled and didn't explain. He just said, "I heard you said you were going to vote in Tokyo. Who did you want to vote for?"

This man is a simple man, and he didn't realize that Wang Lun was taking the wrong topic. He only heard him say: "Although I grew up in the mountains, I also know the truth of 'learning the arts and martial arts, and selling them to the emperor'. If I go to Tokyo, I’m going to serve the imperial court!” At this point, he sighed, and his emotions became very angry in an instant: “I originally hoped that I could change my life by relying on my skills, but I was in Tokyo. The city bumps into each other, there is a hard time waiting for a meal, but which official knows me? Thinking about it, I feel boring, since I have no way out in Tokyo, so I plan to vote for Wang Qing. It's not that I met a military advisor, I'm afraid I've already gone south now!"

Wang Lun said, nodded and said: "Brother, you are new to the rivers and lakes. You didn't know that the officials in the court were in power and blocked the way! Remember the teacher Lin I told you to listen to? He is the gun stick of the 80 imperial guards in Tokyo. The coach is the best in martial arts in Tokyo, but in the end, isn’t it too difficult to return to the country? And the teacher Xu who fought with you that night, you know his skills, he was originally the emperor’s personal guard , compared with you and me, is your status noble? Isn’t it because a treasure at home was spotted by a high-ranking official and sent him to prison! You think these heroes in the imperial army can’t stay anymore, let alone you from a reckless background the hero?"

The scorpion nodded half-understanding, and said: "Fortunately, the military master explained it clearly to me, otherwise I would still be thinking about it, and I would be depressed!"

After he finished speaking, he turned sideways very affectionately, and said to Wang Lun: "Military officer, to tell you the truth, since I was born, there have been three people who have treated me as much as a mountain! The first one is my mother. I lost my father since I was a child, and my mother brought me up. Now that she is old and in poor health, I thought I could no longer live with her in the mountains, so I came out by myself to see if I could find a decent job Do it, so that she can enjoy the blessings with me for a few days, and in the future she will have a headache, and I will have the money to seek medical treatment with her!"

Seeing that this person's surname is sincere and filial, Wang Lun nodded again and again, and the more he talked about it, the more vigorous he said, "The second one is my strange master. When I was 13 years old, I was hunted by him in the mountains. When I met him, he stayed in the mountains and taught me how to use the axe for three to five months, and since then he has never returned without hearing from him, and I miss him all the time!" After speaking, there was a trace of nostalgia on Wang's face. Seeing this, Lun couldn't say anything, but just picked up some words to comfort him.

He nodded his head, and continued: "The third brother is my brother. He met him in the mountains. He saw that I am good at martial arts, so he often came to compete with me and helped my wife from time to time. .This time, when I went far away, I took my mother to live in another place. These days, I got along with the military adviser day and night, and you treated me as sincerely as he did. It made me think of him in my dreams at night!"

Wang Lun smiled when he heard the words, and seeing that his surname was Zhenglong, he didn't interrupt him, but just kept in mind that his brother might not be a simple person.

Sure enough, I heard Li Jiao say again: "Military teacher, although I was born as a hunter and haven't seen any great world, I also know the truth that two tigers cannot fit in one mountain! I think you are so knowledgeable and kind to people, you can't handle it." Otherwise, I will be tabooed by that narrow-minded Wang Lun! I am not capable, but I am strong enough to stay with the military division to protect you. Even if Wang Lun can't tolerate me, I will endure it, and I can't ask him to drive me away. Leaving will hurt the military division!"

Wang Lun was secretly moved by what he said, but then he heard the straight man say a lot of things in his heart, Wang Lun nodded again and again, and patted his rough hands that were as thick as bark.

After the words in his heart were finished, Wang Lun fell asleep on the carriage. Wang Lun shook his head and smiled, and turned his gaze out of the window. getting closer.

Except for the robbery that night, there was nothing serious on the road these days.I also encountered yamen servants from several state capitals along the way to block the road and set up checkpoints to arrest the most wanted criminals of the imperial court.It's just that the convoy Wang Lun was in, from the driver of the coach to the guards in the escort, were all genuine soldiers of the military supervisory army of the capital, and there was an official document issued by the eunuch, so they were not subject to any interrogation. There was no need to pay for the wine, and it was released directly after a few times.

At this time, the smooth journey made Wang Lun a little worried about Lu Zhishen and his party. Although Lu Zhishen was not at the scene of the castration of Gao Yanei that night, he also offended Gao Qiu by escorting Lin Chong. Although Zhang San said that he had never seen arrests in Tokyo. He was still a little worried about Monk Hua's announcement, but Yu Lu paid attention, and asked Zhang San to check the news back and forth, but he found nothing unusual, so he secretly let go of his heart.

Just like this, Xiaoxing stayed overnight, and the convoy walked all the way to Yuncheng County. The deputy came to ask for instructions, should they go directly to the city or which way to go?Wang Lun got out of the carriage and saw a large restaurant not far ahead, which was located on the edge of the thoroughfare. Wang Lun went up to check carefully, and suddenly saw the square hanging from the restaurant. Under the signboard with the word "wine" on the side, there is a small piece of Wang family's fine wine engraved. Wang Lun immediately knew it, and turned to the deck of soldiers and said, "I feel like I am home when I arrive in Yuncheng County. I don't want to trouble you any more. And if you move your things to the hotel, you will be considered to have paid the errand. Everyone has worked hard in the past half month, and going to that hotel to have a good meal is also a practice for the brothers!"

Hearing the words, the deck soldier was overjoyed, but said in his mouth: "How can I leave the high officials in this wilderness? I'm afraid it's wrong?"

Wang Lun smiled heartily and said: "It's okay, I have my own dealer to take care of me, so I invite you all to rest for a night, and I can go back to Beijing tomorrow for business!"

Then the deck officer said: "I don't want to bother the officials, such young people will leave after lunch, so that they can find a place to stay before sunset!"

Wang Lun smiled and didn't leave him behind, but just greeted everyone to enter the store. At this time, the shopkeeper in the store saw so many customers coming, so he hurried out to greet him, but saw that the person in charge was the village lord Wang Lun who had returned from Tokyo?The shopkeeper was overjoyed immediately, but saw that the owner of the village had a lot of luggage, and there were some soldiers around him. He had a wink, and just said: "Guest officers, please come inside!" Then he turned around and said, "Little Er, everyone Come out! First move things in for the guests!"

Wang Lun greeted the deck of soldiers to go in first, turned around and went to the carriage one by one to tell everyone that this was his own hotel. Everyone was very happy when they saw it, thinking that they had worked so hard on the journey, and finally reached the door of their house this time. up.

Wang Lun first arranged for the family members to go upstairs to wash up, and then ordered the second child to deliver the meals to the room later. Instructor Zhang, Wen Huanzhang, Xu Ning, Yan Ji, Jiao Ting, and Zhang San were invited to sit down here. Wang Lun went to Xiangjun again and made a toast, then turned around and sat down. At this time, the shopkeeper ran to Wang Lun's side and whispered, "brother, why don't you tell the little ones to copy the weapons and do the flipping right now?" you guys?"

Wang Lun shook his head and said: "I have to greet them, don't make any extra trouble!" These people served all the way, but they were very attentive, although they were looking at the money, but they also saved themselves a lot of trouble, otherwise At this time, people like myself can't sit here and drink with peace of mind.

After more than half an hour, these Xiang soldiers were all drunk and full. Wang Lun called them up to rest and rest before leaving. Brothers, don’t bother me for a long time, now that I’m full, I’m on my way!”

Wang Lun saw that he sent the people to the door and saw them from a distance, so he was about to turn around and go back, but he saw a group of people walking by the side of the road at this moment, and he only heard them say: "The new official took office three fires, His grand master said something softly and cleverly, but made us servants run away, hey! When did a hotel of this size open here? Let's go in and have a bowl of wine before leaving!?"
