Water Margin Survival

Outside the pavilion,

By the side of the ancient road,

The herbs are green.

The evening wind blows the willow flute sound,

Sunset outside the mountains.

the end of the sky,

corner of the earth,

Friends are half lost.

A jug of turbid wine fills the rest of the fun,

Don't dream cold tonight.

……

For some reason, Wang Lun looked at the different scenery outside the Sending Jun Pavilion, and this sad melody kept lingering in his heart.

"Officer, the four in that group are Teacher Xu and the others!"

Li, the green grass snake, had sharp eyes, and an urgent call made Wang Lun and the others all look towards the ancient road.I saw the first man wearing a heavy shackle on his head, his hands imprisoned in front of his chest, and a worry in his brow suppressing the heroic spirit on his body, looking desolate and rough.

The two gentlemen followed behind listlessly, while Tang Long followed the three far behind, falling several tens of feet away.

At this time, Tang Long also saw the situation here, and hurried to catch up. This action immediately attracted the scolding of the two gentlemen. Hearing what the two men said, Tang Long frowned, and still stepped forward and whispered to his elder brother. He whispered a few words in his ear, and then backed away.

The man in front saw that he was looking this way in a hurry, and his steps quickened unconsciously, and then he heard the escort behind him shout: "Xu Ning! I think you are also a high-ranking figure in the imperial army, why are you so ignorant? There are hundreds of miles all the way, how can you go as fast as you want, slow as you want, and stop as you want!"

Tang Long accompanied him carefully and said carefully: "Two elder brothers, there are some old friends ahead, just say a few words and leave!"

The man just scolded, but heard the other gentleman say: "Just let them say a few words, what's the matter? We've been walking for half a day, and we're tired, so we just rest in the pavilion in front! Teacher Xu, just go , I'll wait for a rest!"

Xu Ning looked back gratefully, and then rushed towards the group of people. The two gentlemen looked at each other and quickened their pace. Tang Long naturally followed his elder brother, never leaving.

Seeing that the two groups of people met, the guards saw that the pavilion was full of wine and food, apparently to receive Xu Ning, so they went up to eat and drink regardless.Seeing that the two men were so arrogant, everyone was very upset.Wang Lun just didn't see it, and looked straight at Xu Ning, only to see that the golden gunner was born to be a good-looking man, with a six-foot-five-six-length body, a round white face, three-toothed thin black mustache, and a very wide waist and broad arms. .Before Wang Lun could speak, Xu Ning said from a distance: "I heard more about the benefits of officials from my younger brother, and they used money everywhere and ran up and down. Xu Ning was so moved! It's just that villains and officials are familiar with each other. I don't know each other, how can He De be treated so favorably by the officials!"

"Mr. Xu's name is unknown in this Tokyo city. My elder brother Lin Chong has often talked about the teacher's hero in front of me. How can he stand by and watch when he encounters the teacher's disaster?" Wang Lun clasped his hands.

Xu Ning heard that his eyes were red and swollen, and he was startled and said, "Coach Lin!?"

Wang Lun nodded, smiled without saying a word.But I heard Xu Ning muttering to himself: "I was serving in front of His Majesty the day Teacher Lin was appointed, and I couldn't send him off. How rude, I didn't expect today... Alas!" After finishing speaking, he wanted to apologize to Wang Lun, but he couldn't Feeling that his hands were only imprisoned, when he came back to his senses, the hero could not help but let out a long sigh in despair.

Seeing this, Wang Lun clasped his hands to the two gentlemen who were eating and drinking in the court pavilion: "Please make it easier for you two to go up and down!"

Those two people were only focused on eating, so they didn't look straight at Wang Lun. Wang Lun chuckled and repeated, "Please make it easier for the two of you to go up and down!"

At this moment, one person finally raised his head and said coldly, "Where did you come from, the country's law protects you..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Zhang San catch up and slapped him fiercely. Hearing a crisp sound, the man fell to the ground with his whole body.The man next to him was stunned when he saw it. The half chicken bone he was holding in his mouth hadn't spit out yet, and he subconsciously wanted to get the waist knife.Suddenly, a dozen or so men surrounded him with smiles, all of them gearing up, with provocative eyes, as if they were afraid that he would not draw their swords.

The man's face changed suddenly, he burst into laughter in an instant, and said to his companion: "I said to you, it doesn't matter if you open it as soon as you open it. Teacher Xu is the most respectful of the law, why don't you just leave?"

But Tang Long said angrily from the side: "My brother and I are going to leave, let's see how you two dog heads fight!"

The man looked embarrassed and didn't dare to answer, so he hurriedly came to unshackle Xu Ning, Xu Ning said kindly: "My brother is joking with the two officers, you two must not take offense!"

The man hurriedly apologized and said with a smile: "Don't dare, Teacher Xu, but it's okay to catch up on the past!"

But he saw the gentleman in the pavilion who was slapped to the ground by Zhang Sanyi struggling to get up, although he didn't dare to speak, but his eyes were full of hostility, he just looked towards Xu Ning, obviously planning something in his heart.

Seeing his appearance, Zhang San looked at Wang Lun as if asking for instructions.Wang Lun nodded slightly, and Zhang San smiled, and said to the man, "Have you not had enough to eat yet? Brothers, let's add a meal to this senior official of Kaifeng Mansion!"

When the words fell to the ground, more than a dozen men yelled "It's an honor", and they rushed forward, and pushed the gentleman to the ground again, and fists rained down on him. Everyone beat him once, feeling too tired to bend over, and again They all straightened their backs and just sent the soles of their feet to the man on the ground.Seeing this gentleman beside Xu Ning, he was dumbfounded in fright, he dared not speak, but the two were fighting, hiding behind Xu Ning, trembling like sifting chaff.

Everyone beat them once, one by one helped their waists and rubbed their feet, sighed and said hard work, Li Si, the green grass snake, saw this and scolded: "You useless people, it takes so much effort to beat a single person, just look at me!" After speaking, he demonstrated , jumped up and stepped on the man on the ground, and said while stepping on it: "Look, this way you won't be tired!"

Seeing that Xu Ning couldn't bear it, he walked up to Wang Lun and begged for mercy: "Officials, just spare them for a while, if you fight again, you will die!"

Seeing him speak, Wang Lun nodded with a smile, and told Zhang San and his group to stop.And walked to the side of the gentleman who was lying on the ground begging endlessly, squatted down, and said: "Speaking of which, the worth of the two of you is really expensive. But I asked, the Kaifeng mansion bought you two gentlemen The crime of assassination and exile requires thousands of dollars. You two can save me money, I don't have so much money that I have to give it to you Shangguan!"

The gentleman lying on the ground groaned and groaned, unable to speak. The man hiding behind Xu Ning was horrified when he heard the words, and hurriedly said loudly: "Don't dare to ask the officials to send money, two villains!" I will definitely serve Teacher Xu well all the way, and I will never neglect her!"

Wang Lun nodded with a smile, and said to the people on the ground: "I heard that there is a division of labor for escorting the princes, one is a good face and the other is a bad face. You are really not a good guy, but you are rushing to sing a bad face! Then Dong Chao, Is Xue Ba studious? After you go back, discuss how to change your face, so you can save yourself a beating!" After speaking, he stood up and shouted to the man outside: "Drag this guy out, I want to talk to Teacher Xu !"

The guard outside hurried over like a dog, and dragged out his colleagues on the ground desperately. Zhang San and the others followed with a smile, and said with a smile: "Your name is Xue Wu, you live in Xiji'er Lane, and your name is Ma. Sixth, I live in Zhao Shiwanzhai Road..."

Regardless of the fact that Zhang San and the others were concocting these two gentlemen, Wang Lun invited Xu Ning and Tang Long to sit in the pavilion, only to hear Tang Long walking and saying: "Relieve my anger! Officer, I am really relieved by this experience! These two Straight mother thief, you won’t let me stay by my brother’s side even if you take my favors, so let me follow you from afar, if it’s not for your brother’s insistence on refusing, I’ll beat his mother to death with one punch!”

After Tang Long finished cursing, Wang Lun saw Xu Ning's worried face, he chuckled, and said, "Teacher, don't worry, the people in Kaifeng's mansion are all dogs! These two have learned a lesson from this time." , I will not dare to betray the water, the teacher can do whatever he wants along the way, and rest if he wants to, until the sore on his body is healed!"

Seeing that Xu Ning was moved, he thanked Wang Lun, who stepped forward to help him up.Seeing him like this, Wang Lun guessed that Xu Ning was unwilling to go up the mountain with him this time, so he didn't bring up the topic of Juyi at all, but said: "Today, the teacher's case file was issued, and the escort was appointed in court. I asked someone to follow these two dogs, and from the time they went home to pack their luggage to the time they returned to the Yamen, no one joined them all the way. It seems that Gao Qiu fulfilled his wish and didn't intend to harm the teacher again. Don't worry! It's just a journey of three hundred miles, the teacher takes care all the way, and when you get to Mengzhou, don't forget to ask someone to send you a letter to comfort me!"

Hearing this, Xu Ning said with tears, "I think Xu Ning had a bad fate and was framed by a villain. Fortunately, I met a noble person who rescued me from the sea of ​​suffering! This kindness is hard to repay, and if there is a time to meet again, I will be like a cow and a horse." , but also to repay the officials!"

When Wang Lun saw him, he persuaded him gently and took his hand, just to persuade him to drink.Seeing Tang Long sighing at the side, he thanked him with a smile: "The two thousand catties of fine iron from the Western Regions the day before yesterday, and I got more brothers. Today, let's drink a glass of water and wine together, and express our thanks!"

Seeing Tang Long said, he was busy and dared not dare, raised his glass and said: "I still heard Zhang San, a street mouse, say that villains know that officials want to buy fine iron. Otherwise, when we meet that day, I will invite officials to go there together. Now that The store has already sold several hundred catties, and the villain is very sorry!"

Wang Lun waved his hand and said, "There are more than 2000 catties, which is enough! I just dare not to have the heart to look forward to Shu!"

Tang Long stood up and saluted and said: "After escorting my elder brother to settle in Mengzhou, he went to the capital to pick up his sister-in-law. After the elder brother's family reunion, he will go to Jeju to visit the officials and forge the fine iron one by one. The reporter is very kind!"
