Chapter 301: Miss me?
When he left Xu's mansion, the sky was getting whiter. Ximen Qing returned to the inn and took a rest. He didn't wake up slowly until the sun was noon. Then, Ximen Qing called Li Kui for dinner, had enough wine, and had enough food and drinks, and the two continued to set off and rushed towards Liangshan.
During the journey, the two of them did not delay, but rushed towards Liangshan. After traveling for many days, they arrived at the territory of Liangshan in a hurry. Seeing that Liangshan was right in front of them, they were relieved. As they slowed down, they prepared to go to Liangshan County for a full meal first, and then continue on their way.
But when he arrived in front of the southern gate of Liangshan County, Ximen Qing was stunned.
At this time, the south city gate was closed, the suspension bridge was pulled up, and many soldiers on the city wall were standing guard and patrolling, burning boiling water, boiling oil, and rolling wood and stones arranged, looking like they were waiting for the battle, as if a big battle was about to begin!
"What's wrong?" Ximen Qing raised his eyebrows and asked inwardly.
"What bird city is like fighting! Emperor Yi, Liangshan wants to fight this city?" Li Kui cursed and asked.
Ximen Qing raised his eyebrows, then slapped his forehead, thinking about the reason for the incident.
At this time, Ximen Qing remembered that when he left Liangshan last time, Chao Gai and Wu Yong began to plan to rob Liangshan County. Several months have passed and they have not yet fought. Judging from the situation of Liangshan County, I guess I had known about the movements in Liangshan for a long time.
War is about taking the lead. Now Liangshan County has known Liangshan’s intentions, and if you want to attack, it will be troublesome. I really don’t know which Wu Yong, who is as smart as a demon, can play?
Then Ximen Qing pulled the horse rope and said to Li Kui: "Iron Niu. Go, go back to Liangshan!"
"Ah? I won't eat meat anymore?" Li Kui was a little unhappy.
Ximen Qing glared at Li Kui and cursed angrily: "There is a war soon! Do you want to eat meat or kill someone?"
"Damn. Of course I Tie Niu wants to kill people! Haha, good to fight! I Tie Niu like it!" Li Kui patted the axe on his back, licked his scarlet tongue and said.
"It's indeed a murderous devil!" Ximen Qing shook his head, then whipped Li Kui and rushed towards Zhu Gui's restaurant.
At this time, Liangshan defense had already entered a subtle way. There were spies patrolling the reed land of the eight hundred miles of Shuibo swamps. If you find outsiders entering the lake, you will capture them directly. If you resist and kill them on the spot. Therefore, if you want to go to Liangshan, you have to go to Zhugui Restaurant on the North Road and Song Restaurant on the East Road. Only by passing these two restaurants can you safely reach Liangshan Shui Village.
Ximen Qing and Li Kui rode their horses and spent some more time before finally coming to Zhu Gui’s restaurant beside the water. Looking at the familiar Zhu Gui’s restaurant, Ximen Qing smiled and said to Li Kui: “Don’t you want to eat meat? Let you eat enough later.”
"Okay, okay!" Li Kui touched his stomach and laughed. Then he frowned, pointed at the bustling people in front of the restaurant, and asked, "Emperor Yi. What do those people do? Why are they all carrying weapons? Are they causing trouble? I Tien Niu went to kill them!"
As he said that, he drew out a trick.
Ximen Qing glared at Li Kui and then said, "Those people are all ready to defect to Liangshan. Otherwise, do you think they dare to stroll around with weapons on the Liangshan territory?"
While Ximen Qing was talking, Zhu Gui and Shi Qian walked out of the restaurant.
Zhu Gui stood in front of the restaurant, bowed to the people in front of him, and said with a smile: "Everyone, I have let you wait for a long time! You come to Liangshan to admire Liangshan and trust Liangshan! What we are talking about most is kindness. If you come to join us sincerely, then we will be a family in the future! In the future, we will work together to build Liangshan. We will practice the way for heaven and eliminate harm for the people! However, I am afraid that some people will be malicious and pretend to come to join us on the surface, but in the mainland, it is a detailed work of the court or other places. You, if you join us in detail, then he can attack us in the back! It is not a loss to die at the hands of the enemy, but if you die at the hands of the traitor, hum, that is a great humiliation! You guys, I wonder what I, Zhu, are right?"
Zhu Gui was very clear, and these people who came to vote nodded and responded:
"Teacher Zhu is right. We must conduct strict inspections. We cannot let this kind of cancer interfere in Liangshan and wait for an opportunity to harm Liangshan!"
"Yes, I must investigate it carefully!"
…
Zhu Gui nodded with a smile, then pressed his hands down to calm everyone down. Then he said with a smile: "Since you agree, I offend and start investigating one by one. The heroes who have clearly investigated can go to the restaurant to eat wine, and the wine and meat in the restaurant can be enough, and eat whatever they want. Haha... Only those careful and devilish work are unwilling to let me investigate carefully, and I dare not go to the restaurant to eat meat. Everyone, which hero will come first?"
"I'll come first!" In the crowd, a black man nearly 1.8 meters tall stood up: "I'm here to invest sincerely, not afraid of investigation, please ask quickly, I'm still waiting to enter the store to have a drink! Haha..."
"Okay, this hero is open and honest!" Zhu Gui said with a smile, then looked at Shi Qian. Shi Qian nodded, took out a thick account book, picked up a brush to prepare.
Zhu Gui asked: "I don't know where the hero's surname is? Where is his family? Why do I come to vote? Can someone prove your identity? Can I recommend it..."
Zhu Gui asked many questions at once.
The man laughed and said, "My name is Old Gui Gu, a native of Qingzhou. He killed the rich man in his hometown, so he came to surrender. As for the evidence, there are three or four fellow villagers in this group, and I am all together. Yes, I also know Daguan Ren, who once raised horses in Daguan Ren's mansion..."
The man explained it one by one, and Shi Qi wrote it down one by one.
Finally, Zhu Gui invited the man into the store.
Seeing Zhu Gui and Shi Qian's meticulous investigation of the person who came to vote, Ximen Qing, not far away, nodded. Such careful investigation, Zhu Gui and Shi Qian were really good and dedicated. Although such an investigation could not completely detect all the detailed works, it could greatly reduce the inclusion of those detailed works, and could also intimidate those detailed works, which made them feel pressured and dare not destroy them at will.
Ximen Qing and Li Kui sat on the horse, not in a hurry to reveal their identities, but watched Zhu Gui and Shi Qian continue to investigate.
It took more than an hour for more than 30 people who came to vote were investigated. Four of them were suspicious and were turned away by Zhu Gui.
When everyone entered the store, Zhu Gui and Shi Qian stretched their arms and saw Ximen Qing and Li Kui sitting on the horse not far away.
At this time, Ximen Qing and Li Kui also rode over.
"You two are here to join Liangshan?" Zhu Gui bowed, then asked with his eyes narrowed.
Ximen Qing and Li Kui both put on makeup, so he couldn't recognize it. But both of them were posing there, and you could tell at a glance that they were masters with martial arts skills.
Ximen Qing smiled and felt teasing in his heart. He then smiled and said, "Well, we are here to join Liangshan and are going to be the commander. Are you Iron Niu?"
Li Kui scratched his head. Although he couldn't understand why Ximen Qing said that, he still answered: "That's right!"
Zhu Gui and Shi Qian looked at each other, and both of them were a little unhappy.
Come and vote? I think you are here to choose the situation!
Zhu Gui shook his sleeves and asked, "I wonder where the two of you come from? What ability do you have to threaten to be the commander of Liangshan?"
Ximen Qing smiled and said, "I am from Tokyo. As for the ability, Ximen Qing has been killed by me. Haha..."
"Looking for death!" Shi Qian was furious, and then a sharp sword shot out from his sleeve and stabbed Ximen Qing.
"Dare to insult my righteous emperor and seek death!" Shi Qian shouted angrily.
Seeing Shi Qian so angry, Ximen Qing was extremely moved. This is his brother, and he is not allowed to insult him!
Thinking of this, Ximen Qing's eyes were a little wet.
Immediately, Ximen Qing bounced his sword and knocked it away, then turned over and dismounted, took off the character mask on his face, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhu, Brother Shi, I just joked with you, don't blame me!"
Zhu Gui and Shi Qian were still standing there, and then they saw the person in front of them turn into their own Emperor of Yi. Suddenly, the two were stunned and it took a while to react.
Zhu Gui was overjoyed, held Ximen Qing's hand and said, "Emperor Yi, is it you? Just now..." As he said, he looked at the human skin mask that was as thin as a cicada wing in Ximen Qing's hand, and praised, "It turns out that he brought this thing. It's so amazing. Lao Shi and I didn't recognize it! Emperor Yi, you are back. If you don't come back, all the brothers on Liangshan have to go down the mountain to find you!"
Shi Qian also hurriedly said, "That's it. Since we learned that you were wanted by the court, we are all waiting anxiously. Although my uncle said that you went to Xinzhou, I didn't see you coming back safely, so I couldn't let it go!"
Ximen Qing smiled and said, "I have both brothers and I worry about you. By the way, Brother Zhu, Brother Shi, are my parents used to living in Liangshan?"
Zhu Gui smiled and said, "Haha, don't worry, uncle and aunt are all well taken care of. The two elders often chat with the Hu family, the Hua family, and the Qin family. By the way, your wives often accompany the two elders to make them happy..."
"Then I'll be relieved!" Ximen Qing said with a smile.
"By the way, Emperor Yi, who is this?" Zhu Gui pointed at Li Kui and asked.
"Oh, he!" Ximen Qing was stunned, then smiled and said, "He is Li Kui, the man from Jianghu sent the Black Tornado, and he will be a member of Liangshan in the future!"
Li Kui also took off the mask, then touched Guangguang's chin, and said, "Hello, two brothers!"
"What a good man!" Zhu Gui and Shi Qian looked at each other and couldn't help but praise.
Then, Shi Qian said, "Let's go and talk in the store. After you two have enough food and drink, I'm sending you to Liangshan!"
"Okay, let's have a drink first!" Ximen Qing said with a smile. Then he followed Zhu Gui and Shi Qian into the store, then walked through the back hall and came to the water pavilion beside the water pole.
The four of them sat down, Shi Qian smiled and said mysteriously: "Emperor Yi, there is someone who misses you very much. Hehe, I'll call her out first!"
"Who?" Ximen Qing asked curiously.
Shi Qian shook his head and said, "You can't say it, you can't say it! You will know it yourself!"
As he said that, Shi Qian got up and went into the kitchen.
