Chapter 133

There was not enough money and food in the mountain, so Li Gui wanted to use Yushan's tricks and led a group of brothers down the mountain to raid.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard news from the hotel in front that the Wu brothers came up the mountain to surrender.

Li Gui hurriedly went out to greet her in person and met the famous medicine drinker and the eternal prostitute Pan Jinlian at the hotel.

After meeting Li Gui, Wu Song was very affectionate, but Wu Dalang and his wife were unhappy.

Wu Song did not hide anything, and told him bluntly:
"To be honest with my brother, I was drunk that day and impulsively agreed to my brother's trip to the mountain."

"Later, when I met my brother in Yanggu County, I found that he had already married and started a business. My eldest brother and sister-in-law didn't want to go up the mountain."

"I am afraid that my brother will be implicated, and I also have the intention to break the promise."

"It was my brother who saw me wandering around the county every day, not doing my job, just being unhappy, and often drinking and getting into trouble, so he changed his mind and went up the mountain with me."

Li Gui turned his eyes to Wu Dalang and saw him sighing:
"My Erlang has had a bad temper since he was a child. After practicing martial arts, he often fights with others. This always scares me, for fear that if he beats someone to death, he will be captured and beheaded."

"I've also heard of Judge Yang's name. It's better for Erlang to hang out with you than those shady people."

"Furthermore, I heard that Judge Yang has been recruited once, and once there are two, he may be able to recruit again in the future, which can also give Erlang a good background."

"I don't know how to do martial arts, so I can't help the village. I just do some chores in the kitchen. Zhuo Jing can also do some chores like sweeping and washing."

When Li Gui heard this, he turned a deaf ear to his words of greeting and ignored him. He glared and shouted:

"Where did Dalang's words come from?"

"Da Lang loves his brothers so much, how can a certain family let Da Lang suffer?"

"If Da Lang is willing to stay in the mountain, of course he will have to take a top position. All the food, drink and banquet affairs in the village will be entrusted to Da Lang."

"Dalang, please don't underestimate the food and drink matter. Among other things, if the officers and soldiers poison the food, the lives of all the brothers in the village will be at risk!"

"The position of head chef cannot be held by someone other than a close confidant. I would be most at ease if I leave it to Da Lang!"

"In the future, all brothers will be given mothers-in-law in the village, and a place for the women's family members to live in the back mountain will be arranged. These women's family members will be handed over to the sister-in-law for management.

"If my brother doesn't want to stay in the mountains, I can send someone to send my brother and his family to Yishui County, where they can buy hundreds of acres of fertile land and become a member of the Communist Party of China with peace of mind."

"The place is completely controlled by a certain person. There is no need to even change the name. No one dares to make irresponsible remarks."

After hearing what Li Gui said, Wu Dalang began to hesitate.

He is a cowardly person by nature. If he didn't feel sorry for his brother, he would definitely not be able to go to the mountains and fall into the grass. If he could go to Yishui County and become a member of the Communist Party of China, that would be great, wouldn't it?
But his mother-in-law is not a fuel-efficient lamp. She originally objected to her own officials following their brothers to the mountains to become thieves. She and Wu Dalang had secretly quarreled many times over this, but now she heard that the thieves could turn to become thieves after they were good enough. Officer, this heart becomes lively.

If before this, she would have been willing to be a concubine if she heard that she could have a husband outside the Yuan Dynasty, but now she is different.

She knew the abilities of her official, and just by looking at the three inches of Ding Gu tree bark, she knew that there was no way he would fight in battle.

Originally this was a disadvantage, but in her case it turned out to be a good thing.

Since you can't fight in battle, you can't die in battle!

In this case, it seems that it would be good to stay in the mountain and be the leader's wife. With so many women under his control, there is no need to let herself do the work herself, right?
If she is lucky enough to be recruited one day, she might transform into an official's wife.

After thinking of this, she gently picked up the collar of Wu Dalang's neck, lightly opened his mouth and persuaded him:

"Dalang, Yishui County is thousands of miles away from here. If we part ways today, I'm afraid you brothers may not be able to see each other again in three to five years."

"Although it is the territory of the village, the people who left home are humble. We two foreigners will definitely be ostracized by the locals. So what will happen then?"

"You can't bother uncle with everything?"

"In view of Yi Nu, a woman who is a Taoist, Dalang might as well help his uncle in this village first and try it out according to the arrangement of the village owner. If you really can't get used to it, it's not too late to move to Yishui!"

Wu Dalang had soft ears and always obeyed this beautiful woman's advice. After hearing this, he immediately hesitated and raised his eyes to look at Li Gui.

Li Gui immediately patted his chest and assured him:
"Don't worry, Da Lang!"

"If you can't get used to it in the cottage, you can leave at any time. A certain family will definitely not make things difficult and will only give you generous gifts." After receiving such a guarantee, Wu Dalang nodded and said: "In that case, then...then I’ll give it a try.”

Wu Er was overjoyed when he heard this. He hugged Li Gui emotionally and shouted loudly: "Brother, it's all thanks to my brother that I can see my brother day and night!"

The few of them talked for a while, and then Li Gui welcomed the three of them up the mountain and settled down separately.

After everything was done, another banquet was opened and all the brothers were invited to welcome the Wu brothers up the mountain.

Loyalty comes first in the village, and not everyone is strong in martial arts. In addition, Wu Erlang is a fierce man by his side, so no one looks down on Wu Dalang, but toasts to him one after another.

In this cottage, Wu Dalang felt respected for the first time. Unknowingly, he had a sense of identification with the cottage. He was so flattered that he even drank a few more glasses of wine.

After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, Li Gui looked at Wu Er and said:

"Erlang came just in time. I am planning to take people down the mountain to do justice for heaven, punish evil and promote good."

"Since you have gone up the mountain, let's start from Yanggu County."

"I just came here and am not familiar with the situation here. Does Erlang know which wealthy families have committed many evil deeds and are not getting retribution?"

Wu Song put down the wine bowl and frowned to think about it. For a moment, he couldn't think of anyone who was very hateful. However, he heard the elder brother next to him sneer:
"Erlang always likes to fight against injustice. Who dares to do evil in front of him, isn't he afraid of being punched to death?"

"Brother Li Gui asked Erlang this question, but he asked the wrong person. You should ask me!"

"I'm different from Erlang. It's good if others don't bully me. How can they be afraid of me?"

"When they do evil, they will not avoid my eyes and ears. They will all be seen by me."

"Hehe... If we talk about those who have committed many evil deeds and will not receive retribution, I'm afraid that none of the powerful gentry in Yanggu County will be able to escape."

After hearing this, Li Gui was overjoyed, slapped his thigh and shouted:

"it is good!"

"In that case, let's kill them one by one!"

"Let them know that good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and I, the hero of Liangshan, will be their retribution in this world!"

Most of the people present clapped their hands and cheered wildly, but Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng frowned.

"Da Lang, the people in the village are not familiar with Yanggu County, so I have to ask for help. Make a list and ask Brother Zhu Gui to investigate the details of these people later."

"At that time, we will divide our troops into several groups, ransack all their homes, kill them and silence them, and then distribute all the land to the local poor."

Then he said to Zhu Gui:
"Brother Zhu Fu is familiar with these methods. You can send a letter to him and ask him."

At this time, Wu Dalang was also drunk and cowardly. He patted his chest and said: "Those bastards have always looked down on me. They couldn't offend Erlang, so they took revenge on me. This time I will go in person to give them a good look!"

Everyone applauded and supported Wu Dalang to kill people in person and take revenge.

A group of people took advantage of their drunkenness to finish all the work of going down the mountain, and then dispersed.

After everyone had left, Wu Yong turned around halfway, met Li Gui privately, and anxiously persuaded:
"Brother, you can't do it!"

"If they only attack three or five big households, they are just ordinary grass bandits, and the government will not pay too much attention."

"But if we kill all the gentry and powerful people in the county, then the enemy we will face is not just the government!"

"Nowadays, the military strength of the imperial court is weak, but rebellions in various places are rising and falling, relying on the power of local gentry."

"My brother intends to kill the king. We, Liangshan Dazhai, have completely offended the government. We can no longer offend the gentry!"

"Brother, please listen to my younger brother's advice. It doesn't matter if you kill the ordinary wealthy family. If you take away his family assets, they can still be used by me, Liangshan."

"But for those truly powerful people, please hold off on the thunderous wrath and let me use some tricks to earn money from them."

"Not only can you buy gold, silver, and silk, but you can also increase a large amount of military power out of thin air. Wouldn't it be great?"
