Chapter 117: Osprey's Heart and Tongue
When Zhu Biao walked out of the cabin, he looked around and saw that the two sides of the Xunyang River were already at war with each other. There were staggered figures on the bank and densely covered with spears and halberds.
On the left side of the river bank, seven to eight hundred green forest troops gathered. In front of them stood three brothers, Lu Fang and Tong, and two other heroes sitting on horses. On the right side of the river bank, there were a forest of swords and guns, and a general led more than a thousand officers and soldiers to prepare.
.
"Young Master Zhu, please go now. If you wait any longer, I'm afraid the heroes from Huangmen Mountain will come to Cai's boat to rob someone." Cai Jiu followed Zhu Biao out of the cabin at some point and stood next to Zhu Biao.
Behind him, he said with a smile.
Zhu Biao came back to his senses, took a deep look at Cai Jiu, and suddenly laughed, saying: "Ninth Young Master asked Zhu Biao to learn the methods of the descendants of high families today."
"I made Mr. Zhu third laugh. Cai said in the cabin just now that Mr. and Mrs. is a timid person. He likes to bring some followers with him when he goes out. I hope he won't take it to heart." Cai Jiu didn't mind the irony in Zhu Biao's words.
Still smiling, he bowed his hands.
The corner of Zhu Biao's mouth curled up. What Cai Jiu was thinking was far from what he said before. He had an eagle's heart and an eagle's tongue, and a ghost's heart. Now that Cai You is in a high position and has such great grace, I'm afraid he has never been like this before.
I thought about my brother who was far away in Jiangzhou, but I thought about killing him all the time.
When Zhu Biao returned to the boat, Li Jun took the rudder and quickly moved towards the river bank; Zhu Wu stood beside Zhu Biao and glanced at the more than a thousand officers and soldiers on the other side of the river, thinking about Zhu Biao's words just now
, frowning deeply, he said to Zhu Biao: "I think if the young master doesn't agree to his request today, Prefect Cai Jiu will probably not let us leave."
Xiao Jiasui on the side also nodded and glanced at Zhu Biao meaningfully. Magistrate Cai Jiu was not as unbearable as the rumors said. Today on the Xunyang River, the other party had planned everything, and he had given enough to his family with his words.
The young master's face is too great, and only cooperating with such people is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger, which makes people feel uneasy.
"Young Master agreed to this matter today, but you are seeking the skin of a tiger!" Xiao Jiasui sighed.
Zhu Biao looked at Xiao Jiasui's expression, smiled slightly, and said to Xiao Jiasui: "Sir, there is no need to worry about seeking skin from a tiger, but the tiger may not be him. Not to mention Cai Jiu, a prefect, is his father and brother, and so on.
I'm afraid, he has a good plan, and I also have a plan. Today, I'm just giving in to him. I only promise to kill Cai You for him when my wings are full in the future. But when and how to kill, it is someone who has the final say."
After hearing this, Xiao Jiasui's heart brightened, and then he heard Zhu Wu say: "Brother Xiao has only been with the young master for a short time, so he may not know much about the young master's temperament. The young master will never agree to something that he is not sure about. Then Cai Jiu
Although wanting to kill Cai You is an internal fight within the Cai family, Cai You is the person that the young master will kill on his way to success in the future, so there is no harm in agreeing to him."
Zhu Wu exposed this matter, but Wu Song and Li Jun on the side both heard the truth. How could Xiao Jiasui not listen to the truth? He smiled and raised his hand towards Zhu Biao, but in his heart he felt sorry for his new family.
The young man I voted for was more certain.
Not long after, the ship docked, and a strong man with a height of more than seven feet was seen jumping on the ship. He pushed the golden mountain upside down jade pillar towards Zhu Biao and worshiped: "My little brother Ou Peng, I have met Mr. Taishan."
Zhu Biao smiled heartily, stepped forward to help Ou Peng, held Ou Peng's arm to meet everyone, and then said to everyone: "This is the leader of the Huangmen Mountain stronghold that I mentioned to you earlier, known as Mo in the world.
Brother Ou Peng of Yun Jinyi was originally a military household guarding the Huangzhou River Defense Fortress. Because he offended his superiors, he was exiled in the rivers and lakes. He is a good man who can be a cavalry general when mounted, a step general when dismounted, and a water general when he enters the water.
.”
Zhu Biao's words are not flattering, but Ou Peng is a very rare amphibious talent. Although his reputation is not obvious in the original text, when it comes to his martial arts, he should be the best among the leaders of Liang Shanshui Army.
His water skills are probably the strongest among the leaders of the cavalry army.
After everyone heard Zhu Biao's words, they all greeted Ou Peng. Ou Peng hurriedly raised his hands and said: "Young master praises Ou Peng. You brothers are happy to hear it, but you are ashamed of Ou Peng."
Hearing this, Wu Song on the side stepped forward to hold Ou Peng's arm and said: "Brother Ou Peng, please don't be humble. My Sanlang never praises others carelessly. If he says you are good at what you do, then you must be."
Good job."
Ou Peng saw that the person in front of him had a majestic body and a dignified appearance. He expected that he was not an ordinary person. He cast his eyes directly at Zhu Biao and heard Zhu Biao's words, "This is the second brother of a certain family. His surname is Wu Mingsong. He used to be the capital of Yanggu County."
Head, there is a rumor in the world that he was the one who laid down the tiger on Jingyang Hill with his bare hands."
Hearing this, Ou Peng was startled and hurriedly bowed to Wu Song and handed over his hands, praising: "It's Brother Wu Song who is in front of you. In the past, when I heard about Brother Wu Song's feats, I felt like a god descended from heaven."
Seeing Ou Peng's boldness, Wu Song did not go out with him. He introduced Xiao Jiasui, Zhu Wu, Li Jun, Shi Qian and others on the boat one by one. After greeting everyone, he led Zhu Biao and his party off the boat.
Another big man on the bank had been waiting impatiently for a long time. He was seven feet tall, with ape-like arms and wolf waist, carrying a Dagon knife. Seeing Zhu Biao and others approaching, he hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down on the ground, saying.
"My younger brother Ma Lin, I have met Mr. Taishan."
Zhu Biao hurriedly stepped forward to help the two of them up, and said with a smile: "It's a blessing to meet the two brothers from Huangmen Mountain today, but I don't know where brothers Jiang Jing and Tao Zongwang are?"
Ou Peng, who was on the side, heard this and said: "This morning our four brothers received the invitation from brother Lu Fang to surrender to the mountain. When they learned that Lord Taishan came to look for someone, they were all overjoyed and waited at the foot of Huangmen Mountain, but they never came.
When the young master arrived, I and my brother Jiang Jing made a plan together. They thought something was wrong, so they ordered their troops and horses with the Ma Lin brothers to come forward. They bumped into the Tong brothers on the way, so they hurried to the Xunyang River.
At that time, brothers Jiang Jing and Tao Zongwang were staying at the stronghold, and when someone came out, the nine-tailed turtle complained to someone about not bringing him to see the young master."
Zhu Biao nodded after hearing this. Among the four heroes of Huangmen Mountain, the eldest, Ou Peng, and the third, Ma Lin, were the most skilled in martial arts. However, Jiang Jing and Tao Zongwang were more professional talents.
Facing Ou Peng and Ma Lin, they cupped their hands and said, "Zhu Biao thanks you brothers for your support."
"Young master, what you are saying is serious. All my brothers admire you as a person. They know that you are in trouble, and you have to go through fire and water to save you, but there is nothing to thank you for." Ma Lin heard this and moved towards him.
Zhu Biao said.
When Zhu Biao heard this, he smiled and said: "What Brother Ma Lin said is true, but Zhu Biao is being pretentious. This is not the place to talk. Let's go to Huangmen Mountain first so that I can get to know Jiang Jing."
With brothers Tao Zongwang."
