But the woman was cooking and frying the meat, and she prepared it and presented it to Yang Zhi and Lu Zhishen to eat.
Lu Zhishen was a drinker by nature, so when he met Yang Zhi, he couldn't help but drink two glasses of wine. So, while Lu Zhishen fed a piece of beef into his mouth, he said to the young man who was sifting the wine: "Change the bowl." Come and have a drink with Sa's family, but bring an extra jar of good wine,"
The young man heard this from behind and gave a long response, then took two bowls and placed them in front of Yang Zhi and Lu Zhishen. As soon as he raised his front legs to leave, Yang Zhi grabbed him and said: "Just These two are not enough to feed the cat. If you get a bigger one, the drinking money will be a lot for you,"
When the young man heard this, he couldn't help but look at the two guests twice, and then went away as if they were the same. After a while, he brought up two sea bowls and a jar of old wine, and put them in front of them.
Yang Zhi pulled the sealing mud off the wine jar, poured out two bowls, and said, "This is pretty much it. Come on, let's drink." As he said this, Yang Zhi had a bowl with Lu Zhishen.
The two of them were talking and drinking, and they were very happy. However, after they had finished drinking and eating, it was inevitably time to pay the bill. Yang Zhi shouted loudly: "Boss," He put his hand into his arms and touched it again, but when he finally touched it, he couldn't even touch half of the copper plate. Yang Zhi thought badly. He must have left it behind when he was fighting with Lu Zhishen just now. Now he really thought he had nothing. When Yang Zhi saw that the boss was still busy behind him, he walked over without leaving. With a very stern look on his face, he lowered his voice and said to Lu Zhishen: "Brother, most of my money was lost during the fight. I don't know, you there……"
When Lu Zhishen heard this, he smiled back and scratched his head without saying a word.
Looking at this look, Yang Zhi must have thought that neither of them had any money left. Just when these two big eyes looked at each other and wanted to sneak away, the landlady over there had already walked over.
Lu Zhishen watched the woman walk up to him and opened her mouth to beg for food money from them. Lu Zhishen had an idea, touched his belly and said, "Sajia is not full, so give Sajia another bowl of rice."
The woman didn't know what was going on in these two people's minds, so she just thought she might have misunderstood the guest, so she smiled sheepishly, said yes, and went to the back to serve the meal.
Lu Zhishen watched the woman turn around and quickly glanced at Yang Zhi. The two of them immediately stood up, picked up the Pu Dao Zen staff and left the store.
Unexpectedly, their actions finally attracted the attention of the woman. The woman chased her out and shouted: "You have eaten wine and meat, and you have not even given me any money for food."
When Yang Zhi saw that others had seen through it, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and said, "I'll pay you back when the Sa family comes back, and I'll give the Sa family a credit." After saying that, he walked straight out of the courtyard without stopping.
The young man who was sifting wine was the closest. Hearing the sound, he rushed forward and grabbed the hem of Yang Zhi's clothes. However, Yang Zhi suddenly turned around and knocked him to the ground with a punch.
The woman looked at it and immediately screamed.
Yang Zhi and Lu Zhishen took a look and realized that if things continued like this, they would cause trouble, so they simply didn't say anything and just walked away.
However, he only heard a man coming up from behind and shouting: "Where are you going, you guy?" When Yang Zhi looked back, the man who came up was a shirtless man. At this moment, he was dragging a pole and quickly rushed up to pick up the bag. The head was vigorously waved.
Yang Zhi thought to himself: "This guy is so unlucky!" He immediately stepped aside and looked behind him, and saw that the drunkard had already poked a fork towards him quickly.
At this time, the woman also came up, followed by three or two bankers, each holding a rod and a stick, and they seemed to be flying towards the future.
Yang Zhi said to Lu Zhishen: "If this quarrel continues, when will it end? It's better to kill this guy first, so that the guys won't dare to chase after him." After saying that, he stepped forward to fight with the sword in his hand. The shirtless man, the later disciples, and the bankers all shouted and hit Lu Zhishen with the guy in his hand. Lu Zhishen shouted and swung the Zen staff in his hand like a hot wheel. When they got up, the whistling wind blew on the faces of the dealers, just like the north wind howling in the twelfth lunar month of winter, the chill was overwhelming.
Just when Yang Zhi and Lu Zhishen were having a row in the courtyard, the shirtless man jumped out of the circle with a loud shout and shouted: "Don't do anything to me, that big man with a simple sword, you can pass it." Can you tell us your name?"
When Yang Zhi heard this, he also jumped out of the circle and stopped his hand, and then several others on the other side also stopped and stood aside while panting.
At this moment, Yang Zhi patted his chest and said: "If you don't change your name in Sajiaxing, you won't change your surname in Zhijia, that's the green-faced beast Yang Zhi,"
After hearing this, the shirtless man's face immediately softened, and he said with a slight smile: "Isn't it the Minister of the Tokyo Palace, Yang Zhishi?"
When Yang Zhi heard this man mention his former name, he said sarcastically: "How do you know that the Sa family is the envoy of Yang?"
The shirtless man saw that he had recognized the right person. He immediately put away his gun and stick, bowed his head and said, "The villain has eyes but not the mountain."
As soon as Yang Zhi saw it, he quickly came forward and helped the man up, asking: "Who is next?"
The shirtless man said: "The villain is originally from Kaifeng Prefecture. He is the disciple of Lin Chong, the commander of the 800,000 Imperial Army. His surname is Cao and his given name is Zheng. He was born in the ancestors of butchers. The villain kills good animals and picks out the muscles and bones. He was stripped and pushed to death, only to be called a businessman. Originally, a rich man paid five thousand gu to teach a villain to come to Shandong as a guest. Unexpectedly, the transaction was not completed but the capital was lost. He could not return to his hometown, so he married into the village here. In a peasant family, the woman by the stove just now is the villain's wife, and the person holding the fork is the villain's wife-in-law. Just now the villain fought against the envoy, and saw that the envoy's skills were the same as those of the villain's master, Coach Lin, so he resisted the enemy. Don’t stop until you stop,”
After hearing this, Lu Zhishen put his Zen staff on the ground and said with a smile: "It turns out that you are the disciple of Coach Lin. Your master was framed by Captain Gao. When I saw injustice, I sent him straight to Cangzhou and saved his life. ,"
Cao Zheng was extremely grateful when he heard this and said: "I can't thank you enough. I don't know who my benefactor is..."
Yang Zhi smiled and said: "This is Lu Tiha, an old officer from Yan'an Prefecture and a former military officer in the prime minister's account."
Cao Zheng cupped his fists and said, "It turns out to be Lu Tiha, whose name I have admired for a long time."
Lu Zhishen waved his hand and said: "It's all in the past, why bother with him now?"
Cao Zheng hurriedly bowed slightly and said, "Please let us two brothers come home and have a rest." After saying this, he led Yang Zhi and Lu Zhishen back to Cao Zheng's hotel.
Cao Zheng invited Yang Zhi and Lu Zhishen to sit down inside, and asked his wife and uncle-in-law to come and pay homage to Yang Zhi and Lu Zhishen, while he treated them with wine and food.
In the middle of drinking, Cao Zhengdong asked: "Why are the envoys here?" Yang Zhi told the details from the beginning about the envoy's disappearance in Huashi Gang.
Cao Zhengdao: "In this case, we can discuss how long the envoy can stay in the villain's house." Yang Zhidao: "In this case, I deeply appreciate your kindness. Both of us are wanted criminals by the government. I'm afraid that when the lawsuit comes, , I have caused trouble to all of you, so I dare not stay for a long time.”
Cao Zhengdao: "Since my two brothers have said this, where should they go?"
When the conversation came to this point, Lu Zhishen took over and said: "The two of us saw that Erlong Mountain was a good place, so we wanted to take it and settle down."
Cao Zhengdao: "This Erlong Mountain was originally the location of the Ling Snake Gang. Later, Deng Long took the opportunity to seize it. However, this mountain is a good place. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is indeed a good place."
Lu Zhishen said: "I hate that little bird. When the Sa family first surrendered to him, they only met outside the pass. In fact, they were afraid that I was a member of the Spirit Snake Cult, and that fellow would not keep me no matter what. For this reason, I had a close relationship with him. When we got up together, that guy was no match for Sajia. I kicked him in the stomach. When Sajia was about to step forward and take his life, there were many people there, and a group of minions came up with swords and swords. They just rescued him and went up the mountain. So I closed the gate and let you scold me from below, but he just refused to come down to fight."
Yang Zhidao: "Since it is a good place, I and you will work together to capture this guy."
Cao Zheng interjected at this moment: "Envoy Yang, I'm afraid this is easy to say. You don't know, if Erlong Mountain is closed, let alone you two, even if there are 10,000 troops and horses, you won't be able to go up there." , when the Spirit Snake Sect wanted to attack and take it back, they attacked several times in a row, but only lost their troops and horses in vain, and finally returned in embarrassment. For this reason, in the villain's opinion, Erlong Mountain can only be taken out wisely, not out of control. strive for,”
Lu Zhishen said: "For this reason, there is nothing I can do about him at the foot of the mountain."
Cao Zhengdao said: "The villain has a plan, but I don't know whether it will hit the target or not."
When Yang Zhi heard this, his eyes lit up and he said, "I would like to hear some good advice."
Cao Zheng came close to the two of them and said: "Don't be like this for envoys. You followed the villain and wore the clothes of a farmer in the nearby village. The villain took all the master's Zen rings and swords. Then ask the villain's brother-in-law to take a few Huojia, and send the two of them directly to the foot of the mountain. They take a rope and tie the master. The villain will know how to make a slip knot, and go to the foot of the Erlong Mountain to call the door and say like this: "We are I am a banker who runs a hotel in a nearby village. This monk came to my shop to have a drink. He got very drunk and refused to pay back the money. He said, "Go and report someone to attack your village." Therefore, we heard that we took advantage of his drunkenness. , tie him here and present it to the king. "The guy will definitely let us go up the mountain. When we see Deng Long in his mountain stronghold, the villain will pull the rope off the slip knot, and then hand over the Zen staff and the master. Once we and the two brothers attack, where else can that guy go? When Deng Long is defeated, the other minions will not dare to surrender. Two brothers, what is this villain's plan?"
Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi were entranced and said in unison: "Wonderful, wonderful." So, everyone ate wine and food that night, arranged some dry food for the road, and stayed at Cao Zheng's house.
The next day, when everyone got up at five o'clock, everyone was well fed. Lu Zhishen's luggage was all stored at Cao Zheng's house. That day, Yang Zhi, Lu Zhishen, and Cao Zheng, along with their brothers-in-law and five or seven bankers, marched along the official road in a mighty manner. Come to Erlong Mountain,
