Wu Yong and the three Ruan brothers left Shijie Village, and then walked all the way. After walking all night, they saw Dongxi Village from afar.

At the head of the village, there were two great men who had been here for a long time. The man in charge was nine feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, his arms were like iron-made copper, and he stood like an iron tower, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a circle of beards under his jaw. He was the Baozheng of Dongxi Village, and Chao Gai, the famous king of Tota.

Another man had red hair, purple and black face, a cinnabar on his temples, and a black and yellow hair poked on it. He was seven feet tall, and his ape-armed wolf waist. He was the red-haired ghost who joined the village the day before yesterday - Liu Tang.

The two saw Wu Yong leading the San Ruan from afar, so they quickly stepped forward to greet him. Chao Gai stood in front of San Ruan and bowed with a smile on his face.

"Chao has heard of the three Ruan heroes of Shijie Village for a long time. I can see them today, which is enough to comfort my whole life."

Seeing this, the three Ruan brothers did not ask for help. They pushed the Jinshan to Chao Gai and bowed to the jade pillar. Then they heard Ruan Xiaoer say, "The name of King Chao is so famous that I, the three brothers, are well-known. Now that the King of Heaven is unabandoned, I respect my three brothers. I must repay my loyalty."

Chao Gai hurriedly pulled San Ruan to get up and said, "There will be your own brothers in the future, so don't be too polite for three brothers."

After saying that, he led San Ruan and Liu Tang to meet again. Seeing that everyone was only concerned about the greeting, Wu Yong spoke to Chao Gai, "Baozheng, this is not a place to talk, so he should go to the village and talk again."

Chao Gai nodded when he heard this, and led everyone into the village. After entering the village, Chao Gai ordered the patio guests to kill pigs and sheep, prepare for a banquet, and arrived at the back hall, and the six people divided the guests and hosts to sit down.

After everyone exchanged greetings and talked for a while, Wu Yong winked at Chao Gai, and Chao Gai said understandingly: "Now, Wu Xuejian, the three heroes of the Ruan family, and Liu Tang brothers are trusted. I am willing to help Chao Gai accomplish this major event. Chao Gai thanks you here."

After Chao Gai finished speaking, Ruan Xiaowu jumped up and bowed and said, "Brother Chao Gai doesn't say such things. You are a hero who hides luxury in the world. This time I look down on my three brothers, and I sacrificed my life to help you. My three brothers are naturally heartless and have no words."

"Brother Chao Gai, what the fifth brother said is the voice of the three brothers. Brother Chao Gai just takes out a charter, and my three brothers will definitely do the same." Ruan Xiaoer also said.

"But that's right. Today we gather together, brother Chao Gai. Brother Chao Gai, just talk, Liu Tang will accompany him in the sea of ​​fire." The red-haired ghost Liu Tang also agreed.

Wu Yong, who was standing beside him, heard the words of several people and said to himself: These people are all generous and upright heroes. The things they are planning are serious now and there is no risk at all, but they still need to add another insurance.

Wu Yong shook the feather fan in his hand and said to Chao Gai: "Baozheng, I think everyone here is a hero with similar intentions. Why don't we imitate the heroes of Wagang Village today and make a bloody alliance? How about the Jinlan? "

Hearing this, Chao Gai had not spoken yet, Ruan Xiaoqi stood up and said excitedly: "The professor's words have come to Xiaoqi's heart. If you don't dislike me, how about you accept Xiaoqi's incompetent brother?"

"No one will dislike you? Liu Tang only saw that Xiaoqi brothers are very honest and recognised you as brothers in his heart." Liu Tang held Ruan Xiaoqi's hand straight and said with a smile on his face.

Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, Chao Gai slapped his head and stood up. He said with a slight slap in the air: "Okay, this is a stumble on Chao Gai's itch. I am valued by all brothers. Today, the six of us will make a concerted effort to make a big deal here."

Chao Gai immediately ordered the patrol guests to set up red candles in the backyard, get paper money, kill roosters and pigs and sheep. The six people stood side by side in the backyard, drank blood wine, and swear.

"Then Liang Zhongshu plundered the people's wealth and ointment in Daming Mansion, and he cheated 100,000 yuan of birthday gifts to send him to Tokyo to celebrate his birthday. Now the six of us are here to join us to make a bloody alliance, and we will make a golden orchid to get this ill-righteous fortune. But those who have personal intentions will be killed by heaven and earth, and the gods will be secretly investigated."

After making a promise, the paper money turned into blue smoke and floated towards the weather. At this time, the red sun shone brightly and the sky was clear. The six people came back to their senses and looked at each other, all laughing.

In the back hall, Chao Gai invited everyone to the table for wine. Six people drank and ate meat. There was a lot of laughter and joy. When they were just eating, a villager rushed into the hall in panic and said anxiously.

"Baozheng, a Taoist came to the village gate to make grain. The villain had three or five liters of rice with him. The Taoist did not accept it. The villain thought he was too little, so he fought with him again, but he still refused. He just said he wanted to see Baozheng. The villain knew that Baozheng had a distinguished guest, so he asked him to come again another day. However, the Taoist would forcibly break through and knocked over ten tourists to the ground at that time."

When Chao Gai heard this, he was shocked and hurriedly stood up and said, "Brothers, please sit down, Chao Gai will take a look."

When Liu Tang and San Ruan heard this, they were about to get up and go with them. When they saw Wu Yong waved his hand and stopped him, "Sit up, brothers, please sit down. The Taoist is not in a dark way. If you don't know his way, Bao Zheng will come to deal with it."

Chao Gai nodded to Wu Yong, then turned out of the back hall, left the living room, and quickly walked to the front of the village gate. He saw a 8-foot-long Taoist, who was fighting with dozens of village guests.

The man was born with a pair of apricot eyes, eight-character eyebrows, four-sided mouth, a beard, two pine-shaped buns on his head, wearing a short brown robe with a necklace, carrying a pine-shaped bronze sword, and holding a turtle-shell fan in his hand.

Chao Gai entered the field, and since the Taoist men saved several tourists, he said with a gloomy face, "You Taoist who came to find Chao Gai was just to join the vegetarian camp and beg for alms. Since you have already had food and rice with you, why do you still have to hurt people?"

The Taoist looked at Chao Gai and laughed loudly, "You are Chao Baozheng. I don't come for wine, food, money and rice. I only have a huge wealth and honor. I want to send it to Baozheng."

Chao Gai was hearing his words, but he guessed the identity of this person in his heart. When Lei from Yuncheng County was escorting Liu Tang into the village the day before yesterday, he said that a Taoist was wanted everywhere in the prefecture. His friend who was in charge of the county government also mentioned that this Taoist was bewitching heroes everywhere and wanted to take the birthday gift. But now he happened to take it, so why not bring him into the gang?

Chao Gai waved his hand and asked the shopkeeper to retreat. When there was no one around, he spoke: "The Taoist priest does not pay for wine, food, rice, but for the birthday gift of Liang Zhongshu, he gave Cai Jing a hundred thousand yuan. The Taoist priest is the wanted Gongsun Sheng of the Yunlong wanted by the prefecture?"

Seeing that his identity was exposed, Gongsun Sheng's face froze. He pretended to be calm and touched a yellow talisman from his sleeve. He waved it in front of Chao Gai's eyes. He saw that the yellow talisman burned out a thick white smoke. Gongsun Sheng fled.

Fang ran more than ten steps away and saw that the way had been blocked. A scholar-like man and four big men holding a simple sword held each path.

These five people were no one else. They were Wu Yong who had just had a drink in the back hall, Liu Tang and the Ruan brothers. Just in the hall, Wu Yong saw clearly the appearance of the Taoist through the gap in the window, and then recalled what Song Aishi and Lei Dutou had said before, and guessed the identity of the Taoist. He immediately spoke to Liu Tang and the three Ruans, and the five people circled around the backyard and blocked it here.

When Gongsun Sheng saw that his way was gone, Chao Gai came again on the way back. Although he was irritated, he was not afraid. He thought to himself: When he went down the mountain before, he went to write a letter with his uncle. Now he is working under the command of Mount Tai, Dulonggang, and has a high status. If these people really want to capture him and meet the official later, he will report the title of Mount Tai, and I guess that these guys dare not do anything to me.

Gongsun Sheng said quietly to Chao Gai behind him, "Chao Baozheng is going to take me, go to the prefecture government office to receive the reward?"

After Gongsun Sheng finished speaking, Chao Gai smiled heartily and said, "I don't want to leave a hundred thousand coins, but Chao is greedy for that little reward."

Gongsun Sheng was stunned by Chao Gai's words, and saw Wu Yongshi coming forward and said to Gongsun Sheng: "Master Taoist, we are not going to treat you as an official, as long as you want to take the birthday gift, we also want to take it, why not make up a piece of it?"

When Gongsun Sheng heard this, he pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "This scholar is the Zhiduoxing Wu Xuejue. I just don't know how many of them are like-minded, but I almost missed it."

"I dreamed of the Big Dipper star falling straight on my roof the night before. There was another small star on the handle of the bucket, which turned into a white light. I think the star shining in my family, how could it be bad? Just now my brothers and six of them became sworn brothers, and I felt that there was a hollow in my heart. Now that the Taoist priest is here, it is not a complete completion."

Chao Gai also smiled when he heard this. After saying that, he led a few people into the village again and called the shopkeepers to re-shop the banquet. Gongsun Sheng was a person who was active and immediately said, "Now we are gathering together for seven people, and there is a master and secondary person. Please ask Chao Baozheng to sit in the first place, and we will sit down."

"What the Taoist priest said is very true, so please Baozheng sit down first." Wu Yong nodded and agreed.

Chao Gai refused and sat in the first place. The remaining six people gave in another humility before settling down the seat. Wu Yong sat in the second place, Gongsun Sheng sat in the third place, Liu Tang sat in the fourth place, Ruan Xiaoer sat in the fifth place, Ruan Xiaowu sat in the sixth place, and Ruan Xiaoqi sat in the seventh place.

After the wine and meat were served, the seven people drank it, Gongsun Sheng said quietly again: "The dream that Baozheng mentioned just now is quite extraordinary. I have calculated that if I want to accomplish this time, I am afraid that it should be on the little star that turned into white light."

When Chao Gai heard this, he fell into deep thought, his brows frowned slightly, and after a while, his eyes lit up, and he said to Wu Yong: "Scholar, where do you want to pass the birth date escort route you told me the day before yesterday?"

"Then Liang Zhongshu had lost his birthday gift once last year. He would not act like a big fan this time. He would probably send people with high martial arts skills to escort the birthday gift to take a small path, but no matter whether he was walking on the big road or the small road, he would pass by Huangnigang. According to Xiaosheng's opinion, success is here." Wu Yong responded in a deep voice.

Chao Gai slapped his thighs and shouted, "But it's not that Chao Gai's dreams are alive. There is an Anle Village on the ten miles east of Huangnigang. There is a idle man named Bai Sheng, who was desperate and supported him. He is an alert person."

When Gongsun Sheng heard this, he smiled and said, "The White Rat, Bai Sheng, Bai Guang, but it is not true that this person should be."

When everyone heard this, they all laughed loudly. After laughing, they continued to have a drink. During the meal, the seven people discussed specific plans and timing. The banquet dispersed, and the seven people rested at Chao Gai Village that night.

On the second day, San Ruan returned to Shijie Village, and Wu Yong also went home to teach. Gongsun Sheng and Liu Tang stayed at Chao Gai Village. After the seven people gathered together last night, they just waited for the birthday gift to come.
