Aftermath of Water Margin

Chapter 28
But it was said that Li Yingbing was stationed in Zhongmou County. Dai Zong came back and said that Zong stayed behind and died. Du Chong abandoned Bianjing and returned to Huaixi.Dai Zongdao: "I will ask Mu Chun to inquire about the news in Tokyo. They say that Ruan Xiaoqi and Sun Li are gathering in Dengyun Mountain. They are well-fed and prosperous. They want me to go back. I said that all the brothers are in Zhongmou County. Waiting for the reply to the news of Zong staying behind, it will arrive in a few days. Then Mu Chun will go back first. I think Dengyun Mountain is secluded in the corner of the sea, and the soldiers of Wushu will not pass by there, so why not settle down at the right time. , it’s all right.” The leaders agreed.So we still made three teams, marching one after another, hoping to come up Shandong Road, and there was nothing to say all the way.It was getting late when it was approaching Dongchang Mansion. Dai Zong spied along the way, and Fei also seemed to come, saying: "The general of Wushu soldiers has arrived. The central army and the rear team have quickly avoided. I will call the front team to come!" It also seems to be gone.Li urgently ordered soldiers and horses to go in for more than ten miles from the small road and stop at the foot of Crouching Tiger Hill.

But Hu Yanzhuo led the front team, and the vanguard of Wushu had arrived. There was nowhere to hide on the road.Fortunately, the night is easy to escape.Checked at Tianming, and more than 200 soldiers from Hu Yanyu and Xu Sheng were missing.At noon, when the rear team arrived, Hu Yanzhuo said: "If you didn't fight last night, you may not kill them. They are clever and capable, so it's okay." This is a land of four rushes. How can we get it? Go forward, and he will find it himself." Then he broke out and went forward.

It is said that when Hu Yanyu and Xu Sheng saw Wushu soldiers coming, they straddled their horses and left first.Whoever wants to sneak into the Golden Soldiers in the dark can't get out.The vanguard, Ah Heima, is the first brave general under Wushu's bid. He specializes in robbing young men under 500 and over [-] years old. He is well trained and named "Hengchong Camp".It means that he was a young man who was bold and brave, fighting in the city without regard for life and death, and going on a rampage.There are more than [-] people, forming a team of its own.Seeing Hu Yanyu and Xu Sheng's strange appearance and weapons, they asked where they were from and what their names were.Hu Yanyu replied: "My two brothers, named Zhang Long and Zhang Hu, are from Hebei. My father, Zhang Degong, is now serving as the general battalion of His Royal Highness King Qi." Ah Heima said, "Do you know martial arts?" Hu Yanyu said: "I know it all." Hu Yanyu waved his double whips, Xu Sheng turned the golden gun around once, Ah Heima said happily: "I guess he is the son of the general, and he is not bad." Take two wooden cards and brand them The words: "You can take it with you. It is signed as 'Hengchongying Xiaofeiqi'. Five hundred charge children are under the jurisdiction. You need to work hard, and there will be rewards. Don't run away. If you take it, cut it off immediately. Hu Yanyu said: "My father is an official in the Qi State, and he is a family. Where did he escape to!" The two received the wooden plaques, and when they arrived at the camp, there were usually people who served and kowtowed to pay homage.The two discussed secretly, coaxed him temporarily, and left in the air.He is so cute and easy-going, and all the soldiers in the battalion will like him very much.From time to time, he went to Ah Heima to work hard, and Ah Heima treated him with confidants, rewarding him with clothes, hats, and food. In two days, he learned a common tone.

Hu Yanyu said to Xu Sheng: "Since you have become a little flying cavalry, you should check the names of the soldiers in this bid one by one, and mark them in the register, so that you can check them." Xu Sheng laughed and said, "It makes sense. It's a gift to be an official." On the public seat, arrange the vermilion box, pen and inkstone, sit down together, and sing by name.I clicked on Song Anping, a frail scholar with a clear and handsome face.Hu Yanyu was a little friendly, and asked: "Where are you from, do you have parents, and when did you return to the camp?" Song Anping replied with tears: "It is under the management of Yuncheng County, from Songjia Village, and his father's name is Song Qing. We are in the hall with my mother." Hu Yanyu said: "Do you know martial arts?" Song Anping said: "Poor boy who studied poetry and books. He once went to Beijing for the imperial examination, and he was the third-class Jinshi. He never made up an official. Because Bianjing was broken, he still When I arrived at my hometown, I was captured by the soldiers, and the boy and servant were separated, and it has been nearly ten days." Huyan Yuming knew that it was Song Gongming's nephew, so he winked at Xu Sheng and said, "Since you are a scholar, you have been promoted to be a secretary, and you will be with me. Rest here." After clicking, they dispersed.Hu Yanyu said: "Do you recognize the two of us?" Song Anping said: "It seems to be a meeting, I can't afford it for a while." Hu Yanyu said: "I am the son of Hu Yanzhuo with double whips, and my name is Hu Yanyu. He is The son of the golden gunner Xu Ning, his name is Xu Sheng. Since his father, Li Ying, Guan Sheng, Yan Qing and other uncles returned to the south in Yinmachuan, they met Ah Heima. Brother, let's run away when we have time, and don't let it out." Song Anping said happily, "My little brother is weak and incompetent, and it's all up to my two brothers to lead me." Since then, I have come to Anping to stay with Hu Yanyu and Xu Sheng and discuss everything.

One day, when I went to the horse shop for leisure, I saw thousands of horses, like clouds and brocades.There is a white horse with dragon eyes and phoenix eyes, tall and tall, standing upright.There was another black horse, but its hooves were snow-white, and its bones were different from those of ordinary horses.Officer, what do you think of the names and colors of these two horses?The white one was the "Zhaoye Jade Lion" that Duan Jing lived in Xifan, and was taken away by Zengtou City to ride with his teacher Shi Wengong. Later, Lu Junyi killed Shi Wengong.The "Zhaoye Jade Lion" Jia Gongming loves it very much, and he rides it by himself.That black horse is the "Snow Kicking Black Horse" bestowed by Hu Yanzhuo Zhengliang Shanbo.Those two horses are really thousands of li dragons.When Zhao'an came to Beijing, Tong Guan knew that the two horses had been stolen.Song Gongming was afraid of causing trouble, so he didn't dare to speak out.Somehow it belongs to the Jin Dynasty again.It turns out that a good horse has the same lifespan as a human, has strong energy, and has decades of ability.When the two horses were in their prime, the good horse Bide Gentleman, seeing Song Anping and Hu Yanyu seemed to have feelings for the old masters, and for a while he hissed endlessly, as if jumping with joy.Song Anping and Hu Yanyu didn't know, they looked at it once and walked out.Shi Xian Youshi sighed:
When the horse sends Bole away, the wind is hissing, so the master's deep love is also the same.

If you don't believe me, try the flying red rabbit, which is still in the five clouds of Guan Sheng.

But it is said that Wushu soldiers and horses have arrived on the ground in Shandong, and the Yingzhou capital is guarded by Xuanfu envoy Zhang.Xuan Fu was both loyal and courageous. Wu Shu was afraid of his prestige and dared not go to Jeju. He wanted to copy the road to Huaixi, and ordered Ah Heima to go to Daying to discuss matters.Xu Sheng said: "It's easy to get away while Ah Heima is away. If you pull up the camp, it will be difficult." Hu Yanyu said: "There is no money around me, let me try to get some." After sitting on the public seat, He called the children of the first battalion and said: "Just now the general taught me to bring books to the fourth prince's camp. Anyone who is young and has no physical strength will be sent back. It's just that I want regular money, so I am willing to pay." , Take out everything around you, there are one or two, and there are five coins, a total of four or fifty taels of silver.With Xu Sheng tied by his waist, he went to the horse workshop and said to the horse steward: "The general ordered the arrow to come and teach me to take the books of the camp to the camp for inspection. This Song Anping is in charge of the books, and he has to go with him. He has to choose Go ride the three horses." Seeing that Ah Heima favored Zhang Long and Zhang Hu, the leader of the horses did not dare to stop him, and said, "Master Xiao Fei, you choose yourself." Hu Yanyu and Xu Sheng led them out. "Zhaoye Jade Lion" and "Kicking Snow Crow" picked another "Five-flowered Cone", put on the saddle and bridle, stepped on the same horse, added two whips, and went like the wind.

Forty or fifty li in an instant, far away from the camp.Hu Yanyu said: "Fortunately, I have escaped from the tiger's mouth, so I only go by the small path. This is the ground of the Song Dynasty. Take off your clothes and hats." He actually took off his hat and threw it on the side of the road, revealing his whole corner.Xu Sheng said: "Our three teams of soldiers and horses dispersed the night before yesterday. I don't know where they went. There is nowhere to visit, so let's go to Mount Yunshan." Don't forget. Yuncheng County is under the jurisdiction of Jeju, and I want to stay not far from here, and stop for two days in Hexia, before it's too late to go." Hu Yanyu said: "This is also possible." After another forty or fifty miles, Seeing a hotel next to the road, he picked out the wine Wangzi, Xu Sheng: "After walking for half a day, I am hungry, and I will eat something before leaving." He jumped off the horse and tied the horse to the willow tree in front of the door, and went into the shop to choose the second seat. Head up and down, call for a triangle wine, and bring some good rice.The bartender took out a plate of Hu mutton, a fat chicken, and thirty meat buns, and poured the wine.Hungry and thirsty, I ate once and asked to drink again.The bartender said: "I have a bottle of fragrant glutinous wine, but it's just muddy, don't you know how to use it?" Hu Yanyu said: "As long as the taste is strong, it's okay to be muddy."If you don't eat that wine, everything is in order.How did the three of Hu Yanyu know that as soon as they arrived at the mouth, they were top-heavy and fainted.The bartender called the guys to come and lead the horses in first, and cheered: "These three good horses are worth more than 200 taels of silver!" After searching the three bodies, only Xu Sheng had four or fifty taels of silver on his waist, so he wanted to carry them in. to the workshop.A man came out from inside, not more than thirty years old, with a mustache and beard, bright eyes and a thin face. He looked carefully and said, "Don't do anything, it seems to belong to a good family. The flowers are not fully bloomed, so don't kill him!" "

Officer, who do you think this guy is?There is another paragraph.This person is Brother Yun, who helped Wu Da catch Jianxin and Wudu killed Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing, who sold Sydney pears.Although he is a small manager, he has a passionate heart. Most of all, he is used to standing out when he sees injustice.Because of the disturbance of soldiers and horses, he couldn't do business, so he came here to join a man.That man, surnamed Jiang and named Zhong, was originally the small leader of Liangshan Po's grain management, and he was honest.When Song Jiang was in Japan, he entrusted him as his confidant, and when he was recruited, he was old and returned to the farmer at home.Later, the Emperor Daojun knew that Song Jiang and Lu Houyi had died, and he dreamed about Liangshanbo, because he ordered a temple to be built in Liangshanpo for spring and autumn sacrifices.Na Jiang Zhong also couldn't live in peace because of the military chaos, so he lived in the temple, not forgetting the kindness of Song Gongming in the past, adding incense and water, like a scholar with incense.He recruited a few idlers to do some small activities, and Brother Yun also joined the group.According to Zhu Gui's story, he opened a hotel at Lijiadaokou to inquire about businessmen.Those who went into the store to eat wine were a little greasy, so they overturned the Mongolian sweat medicine and took his money.At the moment when Brother Yun woke up the antidote, Hu Yanyu got up first and said, "If you have such good wine, go to sleep!" Xu Sheng and Song Anping also woke up, rubbed their eyes and said, "I'll get drunk before I eat too much!" Brother Yun just smiled secretly.Hu Yanyu said: "The brotherhood has money, so we can go on our way." Xu Sheng went to touch the money at his waist, but it was gone; Hu Yanyu looked at the three horses tied to the willow tree, but they were also gone.Xu Sheng was furious, he grabbed the bartender by his chest and shouted: "You are so bold, how dare you steal our money! Pull the horse over, take it out quickly, don't provoke the master!" With a light push, the bartender fell two or three feet road.Brother Yun accompanied him and said: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Yin Zi and Ma Tong are here, and they will be returned naturally. Your surname? Where are you going?" Song Anping interjected, "We are from Song Family Village in this county, and we want to go home. Go." Brother Yun said: "There is an iron fan in Song Family Village, Song Siyuanwai, but is it from the Sheng family?" Song Anping said, "It's my father." Brother Yun said: "In that case, please go in the back."

The three of them walked to the water pavilion, opened the window and looked, and saw a vast expanse of mist and green mountains. Xu Sheng said, "It's like Liaoerwa. We used to play in it when we were young." Brother Yun said, "There are eyes." If you don't know Mount Tai, you will be offended!" A whole set of food and wine was served, and Brother Yun poured out his respects.Hu Yanyu said: "Who are you? It means it's delicious!" Brother Yun said: "The villain has a kind heart, please sit down. This is the Jingzhong Temple built by Emperor Huizong of Liangshan Po, and it has always been honorable There are guards. Recently, there is Jiang Zhong, who used to be the former little leader of General Song. Because of the military chaos and the country was not stable, he went to the temple to serve incense and worship day and night to repay the old kindness. Several people were unemployed and lived there. The villain It’s Brother Yun who sells pears in Yuncheng County. I don’t care about it, but there is something wrong with it in the wine. The villain saw the three lords with extraordinary looks, so he rescued the antidote. There is no money here. Dare to move, the horse feeds in the back trough. I dare not ask Langjun Gao's surname." Hu Yanyu said: "Since you are a good man, you don't want to guard against it. I am Hu Yanyu, the son of General Hu, and this brother is Xu, the son of General Xu. Sheng." Then he told the story of Dongchang being arrested, Jin Ying meeting Song Anping, and stealing out of the camp.Brother Yun said: "If you are a hero and soldier, Jiang Zhong will be reported to know and go up the mountain to pay respects to all of you, but it is not good!" After hearing this, the three got up and went.Brother Yun said: "Let's drink a few cups. There is a reason, wait for me to shoot arrows, and the other side will come to meet me." Xu Sheng said: "I remember that there is a road in front of the mountain. It's so refreshing to ride a horse. Who has the patience to sit in the boat!" Unable to stay, Brother Yun pulled out his horse, mounted it, and drove off with a whip.Brother Yun also followed and reported to Jiang Zhong first.When he came down to greet him in the hall, Jiang Zhongna bowed his head, and Hu Yanyu returned the salute three times in succession.When I saw Jiang Zhong, he was over 36 years old, and his spirit was strong. He thanked him and said: "The world is cold, and you are grateful in a blink of an eye. How can you be as loyal as an old man!" , I salute here day and night, I only hope that I will ascend to the fairy class soon. The three gentlemen are so handsome, it can be seen that there is a kind of hero. The old eyes are dizzy, and I feel that they are bright in an instant." Lighting incense candles, beating drums and bells, calling the three of Yanyu Respectfully show your respect.After worshiping, I saw the towering palace and the radiant golden body.On the top are Chao Tianwang and Song Gongming, 72 Tiangangs on the left, and [-] Dishas on the right.How do you know:
The palace of cyanosis is lingering with clouds, and the bead curtain reflects the sun.The incense in the golden furnace is dense, and the sweet spring in the jade cup is clear.The heaven and the earth show the energy of evil spirits, and the human environment combines the beauty of heroic spirits.He is righteous and courageous, and loyal to the sun.Not greedy for money, not lustful, all are the people of the Xi Dynasty; the same as the hero, the same as the wine, all spit awe-inspiring spirit.Sometimes shake the mountains, but do justice for the sky.Although the face is different, the spirit is always there; the heart is the same, life and death will not change.Eight hundred miles of mist, the blood and tears of heroes are endless; the friendship of one hundred and eight people can restore the decadence of the world.The names and surnames in the rivers and lakes are heard from afar, like thunder pouring into the ears; the stars born in the Fumo Palace are like the water courting the ancestors.The green forest shows a lot of loyalty, and the phosphorus pavilion brings many achievements.The calamity returned to the Golden Tower, and the living again disturbed the world of mortals, and the men's eyebrows fluttered, still breathing out rainbows; the iron horse neighed in fright, still wanting to flatten the mountain.It's exactly: If you don't make a new face because of your wonderful hands, you won't know how to gather all the heroes back then.

The three of Nahu Yanyu paid their respects one by one, Song Anping and Xu Sheng burst into tears unknowingly.Hu Yanyu said: "Sure enough, the decoration is good, the heroes of the past are still there! It's rare for us to come here." Take five taels of silver and ask Brother Yun to buy blessings, and pay homage tomorrow, and do a little filial piety.After finishing speaking, he went to play around the front and back of the mountain, Hu Yanyu said: "Brother, do you still remember that summer, when I asked my son to hold a boat with Uncle Hua's son to pick lotus, did you go into the water?" Xu Sheng said: "At that time, I took a few sips of water, and it was a few years." Jiang Zhong arranged for dinner and ate, and rested in the ear room.The next day, Brother Yun bought the pig and sheep sacrifices, sorted them out, and the three sacrifices were finished, Hu Yanyu said: "The three of us were originally brothers of Shiyi, how about we become life and death friends in front of God today?" Song Anping was overjoyed When asked about age, Song Anping is the elder, Hu Yanyu is the second, and Xu Sheng is the third.Burn a good incense, drink blood for alliance.First worship before the gods, three and four worship together, since then they are of the opposite sex.Brother Yun cut open the sacrifice and asked Jiang Zhong to spread blessings and drink happily.Jiang Zhong said: "At the beginning, the temple was never built. Before I came to the future, I heard that the chieftain Ruan was offering sacrifices here. Zhang Tongpan came to patrol the mountain and caused trouble."

Just as he was about to finish speaking, Jia Fei from the store suddenly came and reported: "The disaster has arrived! There is a group of people at the foot of the mountain, and the leader is the son of Zhao Neng, who used to be the head of the capital in Yuncheng County. Taking advantage of the disturbance of Jin soldiers, he gathered a group of incompetent people, pretending to be Jin soldiers, and plundered along the village. Make a cottage. It has come from the main road!" Hu Yanyu said: "Brother Song, you live here, I will come with Brother Xu to chop off that guy's head!" Tie up your clothes, pull out your waist knife, Go to the main road with Xu Sheng.Jiang Zhong stopped him and said: "Your Majesty, don't make mistakes! Let's see the momentum, I'm afraid you will be outnumbered." Xu Sheng said: "My two brothers fought a big battle with Jinbing in Yinmachuan, so I'm sorry for these thieves! "Jiang Zhong and brother Yun also followed with bamboo leaf guns.Fortunately, the centipede bumped into the front of the mountain, and a yellow horse from nowhere was riding, holding a long-handled ax in its hand. Drunk, it staggered up and down, followed by more than 100 people.Hu Yanyu and Xu Sheng rushed to the horse, and Centipede saw it and said, "Are you two little officials going to be my disciple?" Hu Yanyu didn't answer, but put the knife on the waist, and slammed the horse off the horse.Xu Shengxiao had his head cut off, and killed four or five more.Those people flew as if fleeing for their lives.There were five or six women left, and they fell down in a pile.Hu Yanyu said: "Don't panic! You think it was snatched, go back separately." A woman fell on the ground like a reel shaft, unable to get up again.When Brother Yun saw it, he said, "Wang Ganniang, that centipede is going to snatch you to be the wife of the village!" He stretched out his hand and pulled it up, and seeing that it was Brother Yun, he said, "Little hozen, you are here to hurt my wife!" There was a woman inside, With fluffy hair in her hair and haggard jade face, she said in a low voice, "I am the daughter of Lu Yuanji, the commander of the imperial battalion. When the capital was broken, my father was killed in battle, and I returned to the south with my mother. The golden soldiers killed my mother, and the servants snatched them away. Fortunately, When I met this mother to rescue me, I went to his house together, I don't want to be snatched here again by this strong man." Hu Yanyu said: "It turned out to be Miss Lu, my lord and my father were colleagues, luckily met, and went inside with this mother." Send these women back home, and ask Brother Yun to drag the corpses into the temple together.

It turns out that this mother is a tea seller Wang Po, and she is a matchmaker with Yan Poxi, and she is the most straightforward with Zhang Wenyuan.The soldiers couldn't open the tea house in chaos, so they hid in the countryside. Seeing Miss Lu's eunuch behavior, she kept her at home and waited for her relatives to find her.Unexpectedly, he was snatched by the centipede, so he couldn't rest assured, so he came along with him.Brother Yun said: "Wang Ganniang, you have been a matchmaker all your life, and today I have a good marriage here, and I will also be a matchmaker with you. The head of Jiang has a wife, let's match it." Wang Po said: "I am 73 years old, and I want to marry my husband. If you want to be younger, you don't want this old stuff." Jiang Zhong said: "I will never marry a wife in my life, and I don't want you, an old bitch!" He made fun of it for a while.Hu Yanyu asked Wang Po to go with Miss Lu to the west ear room to have dinner.Poor Ms. Lu's embroidered shoes are torn, her socks are stained with mud, and she hurt her parents, but she just shed tears.Wang Po persuaded her to eat some supper and went to bed hastily.The three of Hu Yanyu had wine with Jiang Zhong and Brother Yun again. Jiang Zhong said: "Unexpectedly, Mr. Erlang is so convenient and brave!"

Waking up early the next morning, Xu Sheng said: "Dongchang has been separated for a long time, and I'm afraid my father will be worried. Today, I will send my eldest brother to Songjia Village, and then to Dengyun Mountain. But what about Miss Lu?" How can I live in this mountain place? Ms. Lu is very beautiful, so I'm afraid there will be no trouble. I will send it to Songjia Village to settle down, and wait for his relatives to bring it back." Wang Po said: "I would like to serve Miss Lu." Xu Sheng said: "That's a good place." Said to Jiang Zhong: "You are old, and you bother to serve incense. But if this group of people is dispersed, don't open a hotel, and safety is the best. Ask Brother Yun to come with us to get 500 taels of silver to take care of you for the elderly. Since ancient times, it has been said: 'The earthen pot can never be broken away from the well.' It is enough to keep only one or two people together." Jiang Zhong thanked.At the moment, share some money and tell this group of people to disperse.Leading out the horse, Hu Yanyu said: "That five-flowered horse looks tame." Let Ms. Lu and Wang Po ride on top of each other, and Brother Yun walks slowly in the cage.Song Anping rode the yellow horse left behind by the centipede, Hu and Xu also got on the horse, said goodbye to Jiang Zhong, and took the road together to Songjia Village.Brother Yun leads the way, no need to ask.

Liang Shanbo is only a hundred miles away from Songjia Village, arriving in the afternoon, and the three of them are chatting on horseback.Song Anping said: "The world is in chaos, I don't know why. I was lucky enough to become a Jinshi, and I didn't think about becoming an official. I just stayed in the village to support my parents, entertained the history of love letters, and then wanted to get together." Hu Yanyu said: "Now let's follow The brigade, stay here for now. If you can do it, do some work. Time is too late, so let’s go. Where can we go to broadcast the bid and sell the first! Arrive in Guizhuang tonight, sleep overnight, and we will start, I’m afraid they will look for it.” Come to Anping Said: "Don't dare to stay longer, it's okay for two or three days." Talking all the way, I didn't feel it.When Song Anping looked at it, he could only cry bitterly.It's exactly: chickens and dogs are silent and human tracks are cut off, and mulberry and hemp are cut down to make up the rest of the fire.I don't know why, let's listen to the next chapter.

There are also biography of the four sons in the book.Such an article is dedicated to Hu and Xu Erlang, and it is very interesting.In the middle is Xiao Song, reflecting Playboy from a distance.The wonderful thing is that it is the same as Liangshan, recounting the friendship of the whole family, is there a root of all the stolen springs and evil trees?Readers should not misunderstand the concept of Zhili because of the article about carving dragons and embroidering tigers.A centipede must ride a yellow horse up the mountain, and the author is planning for Miss Lu to go down the mountain tomorrow.Watching Song Anping change seats on Wuhuacong, he knows that four people are walking, and if there is a woman, it will be difficult for three horses to change seats. It is better to borrow a centipede and ride a yellow horse first, which is also the author's painstaking effort
