The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 303
Ever since he knew that Water Margin was coming, Mu Xu had already made up his mind to do something big, and what he needed most to do something big was undoubtedly talent, and Lin Chong happened to be a suitable talent.

From the perspective of a bystander, Lin Chong is not a likable person. He does not conform to the public's perception of a hero. What is a hero?In Mu Xu's view, a hero should be someone like Lu Zhishen and Wu Song, who has a clear distinction between love and hate, and is happy to be kind to enemies.

It's a pity that Lin Chong doesn't have these characteristics. Looking at his life, it can be said that he is extremely useless. He even has the suspicion of selling his wife and friends, and being ungrateful. This is really not Mu Xu's nonsense.

Let's talk about selling his wife first. Lin Chongming knew that Gao Yanei coveted his wife, but how did he do it?A piece of divorce paper severing ties with his wife, it seems that he does not want to hurt his wife, but in fact it is clearly giving up his wife to Gao Yanei.

Some people may say that this is to save the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.But Mu Xu didn't think so, the reason is very simple, Lin Chongjiu was an official under Gao Qiu's tent, so would he not know Gao Qiu's power?He should be very clear in his heart, given his wife Zhang's family is a weak woman, and the family has only one old father, how could she possibly win against Gao Yanei who is backed by Gao Qiu?In the end, Zhang will most likely choose to commit himself to the thief.

It's a pity that Lin Chong underestimated his wife. Zhang is a rare strong woman in the Water Margin. She is completely different from Yan Poxi and Pan Qiaoyun. She chose to hang herself to keep her innocence, and her father also died of grief.

Besides being a friend, Lu Zhishen had saved Lin Chong's life in the wild boar forest, but he was lucky, as soon as the two talked about each other, he leaked Lu Zhishen's details clearly, causing Lu Zhishen to live in the world again.Regardless of whether he did it on purpose or not, it was too dishonest.

To say that Lin Chong is ungrateful is even more numerous. From Lu Zhishen, Chai Jin to Li Xiaoer, and Wang Lun, who is the most controversial, these people, more or less, have been kind to Lin Chong, but how did Lin Chong repay it? Others?You can refer to the original.

Since Lin Chong has been belittled so far, why does Mu Xu still want to subdue him?That's because in Mu Xu's view, from the perspective of a superior, Lin Chong has a great advantage, and that is the thought of loyalty to the emperor in his bones. "Loyal servant" is Lin Chong's positioning for himself, and there are poems to prove it, "Lin Chong is the most righteous man, and he is the most loyal servant."

Of course, the person Lin Chong most wanted to be loyal to was Zhao Guanjia, Gao Qiu and the like, not him, Mu Xu.But it doesn't matter, Mu Xu can wait, when Lin Chong is forced to die by the person he wants to be loyal to, and when Mu Xu appears as a benefactor again, are you afraid that he will not submit?Even when he finds out one day that following Mu Xu has a better future, he must be more loyal than anyone else!

As for how to be Lin Chong's benefactor, it couldn't be easier for Mu Xu.He already had an idea in his mind. After Lin Chong was assassinated and sent to Cangzhou, he would go to the wild boar forest with Lu Zhishen, first save Lin Chong's life, and then return to Beijing to save Lin Chong's wife and father-in-law as soon as possible. Just wait for Lin Chong to deliver it to his door.

What, Shuibo Liangshan was occupied by Wang Lun?That's easy to do, Lin Chong is going all out, so why not Mu Xu?There is no such reason in the world. If it wasn't for fooling Lu Zhishen into falling into the grass together, Mu Xu would have gone to Liangshanbo to occupy the mountain and become king. How could Wang Lun be allowed to occupy the latrine and not shit.

In the next few days, Mu Xu went to recognize Lin Chong's house in the name of a visit, stepped on a spot nearby, and just stood by for the rest of the time.

As expected, the situation developed as in the original book. First, Gao Yanei instructed Lu Qian to pretend to invite Lin Chong to have a drink, and then tricked Mrs. Lin into Lu Qian's house under pretext. Had to jump out the window and escape.After being frightened by this, the guy missed Mrs. Lin even more, and he would not give up until he kissed Fangze.

People are always divided into groups. Gao Yanei is a flamboyant old man, and his relative Fu An is not a good person. In order to please his master, Gao Yanei gave Gao Yanei a trick of pretending to be sick.

Why do you say it is a poisonous scheme?It turned out that after Gao Qiu made his fortune, he adopted the son of his uncle Gao Sanlang next door as his adopted son because he had no children under his knees.He was originally a brother of the same clan, but now he is just a generation shorter and became his son with him. For this reason, Gao Qiu has always loved this fake son very much, and he can hardly do anything.

Seeing that he was ill now, Gao Qiu was very anxious. At this moment, the old Yu Hou of the family stepped forward at the right time and said that Gao Yanei was sick. Right and wrong and Lin Chong's life and death, he nodded happily.

Then Lin Chong bought a knife and entered the Baihu Festival Hall by mistake. He was finally sentenced to be beaten twenty times with a stick, tattooed on his face, and sent to a cell in Cangzhou.Lin Chong knew that he couldn't afford to offend Gao Qiu, so he had to write a letter of divorce to his wife with tears in his eyes.

But it was said that Dong Chao and Xue Bazao were secretly bought by Gao Yanei, and they wanted to end Lin Chong's life on the way, but there was no suitable time for them to travel all the way.Until this day, the two escorted Lin Chong to a forest called Wild Boar Forest, which was a dangerous place to go to Cangzhou.

Entering the forest, Dong Chao and Xue Ba tied Lin Chong to a tree to prevent him from escaping. At this moment, the two of them showed their vicious looks, and Dong Chao said, "Lin Chong, tell you the truth, we didn't want to kill you. But before we set out on the road, there was a Marquis of Yu named Lu Qian who sent an order from Captain Gao to let us finish you halfway. You are a good man, don’t blame us for being cruel, anyway, you will die in the end, so it’s better to let us do it easier!”

After hearing this, Lin Chong burst into tears and said, "I have no enmity with the two of you in the past, and I have no grievances in recent days. Why bother to kill me?"

Dong Ba replied, "Who made you offend Captain Gao, it's useless to talk more, brother, send him on his way!" After finishing speaking, the two raised their sticks and struck Lin Chong's head.

It was too late, but soon, when Lin Chong was about to close his eyes and wait for death, an iron gun suddenly stretched out from behind the tree, and with just a light knock, the two sticks flew into the sky.Dong Chao and Xue Ba were so shocked that their mouths were numb. When they looked closely, they saw a young man with a spear in his right hand, turning out from behind the tree with a sneer.

Both of them are veterans, so they didn't know that they encountered difficulties today, and they didn't have the will to fight right now, so they turned around and ran back. Who would have thought that just after taking two steps, they bumped into a vicious monk head-on. Looking at the Zen stick thicker than a rolling pin in the monk's hand, you know that this is not easy to mess with.The two looked at each other, and at the same time drew out the waist knife and fled for their lives, but they were knocked to the ground without even getting close to the monk. When they saw that the two of them were about to lose their lives, Lin Chong shouted from behind, "Senior Brother, Don't hurt their lives, I have something to say."

It was Lin Chong who stopped him, and Lu Zhi looked at Lin Chong who was being untied by Mu Xu, and said dissatisfiedly, "Why do you need to plead for these two dog-like things, it is better to let the Sa family send them back to the west!"

Lin Chong came down to the front with Mu Xu's support, looked at the two people trembling on the ground, and pleaded for them, "Senior brother, they are just following orders. Your lord has a lot, so don't worry about it."

Lu Zhishen heard the words, kicked the two of them each, and shouted, "For my brother's sake, I will forgive you today, if you dare to harm others again, be careful of your dog's head!"

Dong Chao and Xue Ba hurriedly kowtowed their heads in thanks when they heard that they had escaped, but Mu Xu ignored them and found a nearby roadside wine shop to talk. Lin Chong naturally asked why the two came so coincidentally , Lu Zhi said deeply, "It's thanks to Brother Mu Xian, who asserted early in the morning that Gao Qiu would definitely not let his brother go, so the two of us fell behind all the way to save your life in time."

Lin Chong was very moved when he learned the truth, and bowed down to the two with tears in his eyes, "If you don't die in the future, there will be a reward!"

In the original book, Lin Chong said something similar to Lu Zhishen, but when the two met again in Liangshan, they lost their former intimacy, so Mu Xu didn't take this seriously at all, but he said righteously on his face, "Teacher, how can you tell me?" You are very polite, since we met once, we are friends, if a friend is in trouble, it is our duty to attack you!"

Both of them were moved, and Lu Zhishen praised him even more, "Your brother is really noble and upright, which makes people admire him!"

Mu Xu hurriedly humbled himself a few words, maybe because he felt embarrassed to implicate the two of them, Lin Chong still asked, "The two virtuous brothers saved my younger brother's life today, I am afraid that Captain Gao will not let it go, and I don't know if there will be more in the future." What's your plan?"

Lu Zhishen replied, "The world is so big that it has its own place to live." After speaking, he asked Mu Xu, "Is there a place for my virtuous brother?"

What Mu Xu was waiting for was his words, and he immediately said with confidence, "Little brother really has a good place to go, brother, why don't you give me a look."

"Appreciate further details."

"There is a water town under the jurisdiction of Jizhou in Shandong Province, the place name is Liangshanbo, and there are Wanzi City and Liaoerwa in the middle. Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses can be hidden in it, and the outside is surrounded by a water park of [-] miles. There are thousands of ports in the park. Or, it must come and go, isn't this the inheritance that God bestowed on our brothers?" Speaking of this, Mu Xu got up and took a few steps, and said impassionedly,

"A real man was born in this world, and he should run rampant in the world. Since the court can't tolerate us, why not let go of your hands and feet, and make a big splash, so that the Zhao officials can also know the prestige of our brothers!"

Lu Zhishen slapped the table excitedly, and cheered, "Okay, brother is indeed a hero, then Sajia will risk his life to accompany the gentleman and make a fuss with brother!"
