Chapter 27 My two elder brothers, please accept my greetings.
"Master, you are staying well in Daxiangguo Temple, why did you come here?"
Lin Xuan asked: "Master, you look hurried, it seems that you came here overnight."
"It's hard to explain this matter, but since you asked, I dare not hide it."
"I was in charge of the vegetable garden in Daxiangguo Temple, and I hit it off with the imperial army instructor Leopard Head Lin Chong. When the Taiwei Gao Qiu wanted to frame him, I saw the injustice and sent him to Cangzhou, saved his life, and promised to take care of his wife."
Lu Zhishen sighed: "But I didn't expect that Gao Qiu, the bastard, would not give up. He led people to the home of Lin's father-in-law and forced Lin's wife to marry his son. Mrs. Lin was so humiliated that she hanged herself to death. "
"This Gao Qiu is so hateful!"
Huang Rong frowned, but her face was a little confused: "But what does this have to do with the master?"
"I saw that I failed to live up to the trust of Master Lin, so I found an opportunity to disperse Gao Yanei and his lackeys and beat the thief to death in the street."
Lu Zhishen slapped the table: "It's a pity that Gao Qiu is the Taiwei of the Palace Marshal's Mansion. He has many people and masters around him. I was anxious and couldn't do it, so I had to leave Tokyo in a hurry and escape into the rivers and lakes."
"So the master is so... so fierce."
Huang Rong thought about the scene, and she was in awe and said with a fist.
"Alas, I still failed Master Lin's trust and I have no face to meet him."
Lu Zhishen returned a salute, a little unhappy.
Although he acted heroically, he was actually quite delicate in his mind. He was rough but meticulous, brave and resourceful.
If he had discovered that the food and wine were not right, he would have beaten Sun Erniang and her husband to a pulp with just a few punches.
The reason why he had a car accident this time was mainly because he had something on his mind, and he was a little confused and couldn't concentrate.
"So that's it..."
Lin Xuan nodded thoughtfully: "I wonder what the master is planning now?"
According to the original Water Margin, Lin Chong, whether intentionally or unintentionally, revealed Lu Zhishen's identity to Dong Chao and Xue Ba.
Of course, the two officials were unwilling to take the blame, and after returning, they told Gao Qiu everything.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Lu Zhishen simply burned the vegetable garden and returned to the rivers and lakes.
It seems that this time, I don't know whether Lin Chong did not sell out his brothers, or there was another deviation...
Gao Qiu did not find out that it was Lu Zhishen who did it.
Let Lu Zhishen stay in Tokyo Bianliang for a few more months, and find an opportunity to avenge Lin Niangzi.
Compared with the original, it is still better.
"As the saying goes, human life is of paramount importance. This time, I have offended General Gao and have no choice but to find a place to become a bandit."
Lu Zhishen sighed: "This time, I am really embarrassed. I am sorry to make you laugh."
"What a coincidence. We two brothers also have such plans."
Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows: "Master, do you have any good places to recommend?"
"A good place?"
Lu Zhishen scratched his head, his face full of confusion: "Master, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand it again?"
"We brothers are now traveling around the world, and we also plan to find a mountain to recruit soldiers and do something spectacular."
Lin Xuan showed a gentle smile: "Since the master also has this idea, it's great."
Lin Xuan still has some thoughts about Lu Zhishen.
After all, this man is good at fighting and loyal, heroic and free and easy, not pedantic.
He is simply a clear stream in Liangshan.
Since I have met this talent, I will naturally try my best to fool him and make the business stronger and bigger together!
"...Have the two benefactors committed any crime?"
Lu Zhishen was confused again and said weakly.
Although he was righteous and heroic, he was actually content with life and had no ambitions.
He was satisfied with wine and meat.
After killing Gao Yanei this time, he fled all the way in a hurry, and was even more nervous.
Now he just wanted to find a safe place and sleep peacefully.
Looking at the two benefactors in front of him, they didn't have as much fat as he did, but he actually wanted to go up the mountain to recruit soldiers and horses and become a self-made emperor.
The ideas of scholars are different!
Lu Zhishen felt a little inexplicably ashamed.
"It's a big crime."
There was no need to hide anything from Lu Zhishen, so Lin Xuan told the truth: "He has killed several people."
"I see, killing is indeed a big deal."
Lu Zhishen pondered for a moment: "I used to know a few friends who can talk to me. If you two benefactors haven't offended any important people, I will see if there is any room for maneuver."
"We brothers killed Zhai Qian."
"What?"
"Zhai Qian Zhai Yunfeng, the chief steward of the mansion of Grand Tutor Cai Jing."
Lin Xuan said indifferently: "Since Master Lu was a confidant of Mr. Xiaozhong Jinglie in the past, he probably knows this person."
"Nyonya!"
Lu Zhishen finally reacted, with a look of horror in his eyes: "You...you are crazier than me, you dare to kill this person!"
Gao Yanei is just a member of Gao Qiu's clan.
It is probably because Gao Qiu acted too wickedly and could not give birth to a son, so he adopted him as an adopted son.
Now that Gao Yanei is dead, Gao Qiu just feels that he has lost face, and there is no drama of deep father-son affection.
Anyway, with Gao Qiu's power and status.
There are many people who want to be adopted sons, and there is no shortage of them.
But Zhai Qian is Cai Jing's real right-hand man, and his words and deeds can influence the entire officialdom.
Being hacked to death is almost the same as killing Cai Jing's own son...
He must be prepared to face Cai Jing's wrath.
As a powerful official who is truly second only to the emperor, Cai Jing's status is much higher than Gao Qiu's.
Just thinking about it, Lu Zhishen felt a little numb.
"Let me tell you..."
Huang Rong came over and narrated the incident with a smile.
"So you two are the heroes who killed the tiger on Jingyang Ridge. I have heard of your great names."
"Wow, after that pair of dogs and bitches had an affair, they even planned to murder their husbands. They are really heartless!"
"It's great! Although Suo Chao has some reputation, he can't tell right from wrong. He died a good death!"
"If I were here, I would have punched that old dog Zhai in the head!"
Lu Zhishen was so excited that he slammed the table and bowed down: "You two brothers are so righteous that I am convinced. I am willing to follow you to work together for the great cause and kill more dog officials in the future!"
"Master, please stand up."
Lin Xuan smiled and stretched out his hand to help Lu Zhishen up: "From now on, we are brothers."
"Brother" in Water Margin is actually a respectful title, which has little to do with age.
For example, Song Jiang, the timely rain, is actually not the oldest.
Even his number one lackey Li Kui is actually a few years older than him.
But the whole Liangshan Mountain, everyone calls him "Song Big Brother" and "Gongming Brother".
If we make a rough analogy, this "brother" is probably similar to the concept of "gangster boss".
Now Lu Zhishen calls him "brother" to show his attitude, and he is willing to sit below himself and Huang Rong.
Emmm, Lin Xuan feels that his charm should not be as high as Song Jiang's...
Most likely Master Lu still counts it as a life-saving grace, so he is so happy.
It doesn't matter.
As long as the result is good, don't worry about the details.
"..."
Huang Rong made a bitter face and looked at Lin Xuan with some resentment.
Although she was a woman dressed as a man, her mentality did not change much, and she was still an innocent little girl.
It will take a few months for her to turn sixteen.
It was really hard to accept that this rough monk in front of her, who was at least thirty years old and five big and three strong, called her "brother".
