The Taoist took a few steps forward, bowed respectfully and said: "Fan Rui has met the owner of Liangshan Po!"

Zhang Zhengdao sat upright on his horse, looking down at the Taoist wearing a velvet embroidered soap robe in front of him, and asked with a smile: "Are you the 'devil incarnation' Fan Rui?"

Fan Rui replied: "That's right!"

"Brothers Xiang Chong and Li Gun were begging for forgiveness when they collided with the leader of Zhang village earlier!" Fan Rui bowed again: "Thank you for showing mercy!"

Just now, Fan Rui could clearly see from the rear that the more than 300 minions who were wailing on the ground were not dead. They were just stabbed down by wooden spears and suffered some injuries.

Zhang Zhengdao glanced at Xiang Chong and Li Gun who were bound by ropes, and ordered: "Untie them!"

Then one of his men removed the ropes from the two men.

"I have heard about the names of the three heroes of Mangdang Mountain for a long time, but I have never had the opportunity to meet them." Zhang Zhengdao turned over and dismounted, and laughed loudly: "If you don't give up, how about the three heroes return to Liangshan Dazhai to gather together?"

Xiang Chong and Li Gun looked at each other and at the same time turned their attention to Fan Rui.

Zhang Zhengdao was not in a hurry, he just glanced at the Mangdang Mountain minions who fell on the ground and said: "If our Liangshan army had used real swords and guns just now, I'm afraid these men would not be able to survive!"

Fan Rui smiled bitterly and bowed: "We have heard about Liangshan's reputation for a long time. Now that the leader of Zhang Village has personally invited you, if you don't give up, all the people up and down Mangdang Mountain are willing to surrender and join us!"

When Li Gun heard this, he felt unwilling to do so, but when he saw that eight hundred of his minions were defeated in one blow, and that he and Xiang Chong were both captured alive, he gave up his thoughts and followed Fan Rui's arrangements.

Xiang Chong said: "I have heard for a long time that the owner of Liangshan Park, the 'Nine Heavens Dragon', is so loyal that I have never had a chance to visit him. Only now did I receive mercy from my elder brother and the leader, and I was lucky enough to save my life. I am not a person who doesn't know good from evil. I am willing to be with Fan Rui."

Brother, come to Dazhai together!"

Seeing that both Fan Rui and Xiang Chong had surrendered, Li Gong no longer insisted, and bowed his hands and said: "I am also willing to return to Liangshan together!"

Zhang Zhengdao was very happy to have the three heroes of Mangdang Mountain join him. He helped the three men up and said: "I am so happy to have three more heroes in my village in Liangshan!"

Bian Xiang on the side shouted: "If we had just spoken so kindly, how could there be such a chaotic war!"

Xiang Chong said sarcastically: "It's all my fault, brother. Don't blame me. I also ask the village master and all the heroes to come to the small village and have a glass of water and wine to make amends!"

Fan Rui also said: "Please move the village leader!"

Zhang Zhengdao nodded and said, "Please lead the way!"

At that moment, Fan Rui led the way, while Xiang Chong and Li Gun ordered their men to help up the injured brothers, surrounded by Liangshan's 1,500 horse troops, and returned to the main peak of Mangdang Mountain.

The cottage.

Zhang Zhengdao followed Fan Rui slowly and asked as he walked: "There are rumors in the world that Brother Fan Rui can call the wind and rain, and is good at using magic. Is this true?"

The corner of Fan Rui's mouth twitched slightly, sighed, and then replied: "Brother, the leader of the village, doesn't know. This rumor was released by my younger brother, and he had no choice but to protect himself!"

"Oh?" Zhang Zhengdao aroused curiosity and continued: "I would like to hear the details!"

Xiang Chong interrupted and said, "This is not the place to talk. I will talk to my brother in detail when we get to the village."

Everyone quickened their pace and headed straight for the main peak of Mangdang Mountain.

Walking to the foot of the mountain, a solitary peak stands tall. The mountain is steep and steep, with lush vegetation, green cover, and even more mist-shrouded, misty and rhythmic, poetic and picturesque.

After walking along the mountain road for only a few minutes, I saw a simple wooden village surrounded by a fence.

Arriving at the gate of the village, Zhang Zhengdao stopped and looked around at the exquisite surroundings. He saw mountains surrounded by lush forests and flowers, and mist lingering in the mountains. A breeze blew by, and the mist rolled up and rolled up, revealing the blue sky.

.

It’s like a dream, like a fairyland among the clouds!

Zhang Zhengdao praised: "It's really a beautiful scenery!"

Fan Rui took the initiative to introduce: "Brother, the leader of the village, this mountain peak is called Red Emperor Peak. Legend has it that it was the place where Liu Bang killed snakes and revolted. There is a cave under the cliff behind it, called Miyun Cave. It is often filled with purple energy, which is quite interesting.

Mysterious!"

Zhang Zhengdao smiled and said: "I'll see you later."

After entering the stronghold, they all sat in the thatched hall. Li Gun ordered his men to kill sheep and chickens, entertain the leaders of Liangshan, and then opened the stronghold's warehouse, took out the stored wine and food, and rewarded the flying cavalry for their hard work.

Fan Rui invited Zhang Zhengdao to sit at the main seat, and invited Bian Xiang, Shi Wengong, Lu Zhen, and Kou Chen to sit on the right. He, along with Xiang Chong and Li Gun, sat on the left.

"Think of my three brothers, we have established the stronghold for a long time, and it has never been so lively." Fan Rui sighed with emotion, then took the wine jar provided by his followers, personally filled the wine for everyone, then raised the wine bowl and said with a smile: "

Little brother, please do it first as a courtesy."

After saying this, he raised his head and drank it all in one gulp to show that the wine in the bowl was clean.

Over there, Xiang Chong and Li Gun also drank the wine in the bowl.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhengdao said: "The three heroes of Mangdang Mountain are all true heroes who stand up to the heaven and earth. How could they do the trick of drugging people to stun people, and they all take a bowl first."

When Fan Rui saw Zhang Zhengdao taking the lead in eating the drink, he secretly sighed in his heart. He was indeed the famous Liangshan Bodhisattva, but he was not as brave as him.

After putting down the wine bowl, Zhang Zhengdao asked: "Brother Fan Rui mentioned earlier that they released those rumors to protect themselves. What is the reason?"

Xiang Chong replied: "My brother doesn't know something. Previously, there were two men from the green forest who were highly skilled in martial arts but did not respect the moral principles of the world. They wanted to seize Mangdang Mountain and fought with our brothers. If it weren't for the strength of their numbers,

, I’m afraid they will succeed.”

"Therefore, in order to prevent such strong men from spying on me again, I ordered my brothers to spread the word, saying that there is a 'devil incarnation' in Mangdang Mountain, who can use magic, control wind and rain, and flatter himself." Fan Rui's face turned red and he held his hands.

Said: "I made all my brothers laugh!"

Zhang Zhengdao suddenly said: "That's it!"

"Who are those two ungrateful people? Where are they staying now?" Bian Xiang asked loudly, "I'm going to kill these villains!"

Nowadays, all the leaders who come to Liangshan to gather for justice are all upright and true heroes. Even Lu Zhen and Kou Chen were very angry when they heard that there were such unscrupulous people.

Li Gun replied: "Those two strong men, one is called Kuang Jinlong, who calls himself the 'Feitian Marshal', and the other is called Shamohai, nicknamed the 'Soul-Taking General', and they are falling grass on the cold mountain sixty or seventy miles away from here."

, Ye Xiao gathered five to seven hundred people, looted homes and robbed passing merchants."

Fan Rui said: "Although our brothers will also go down the mountain to rob, we only rob money and will not kill people easily. The two people on Lengyan Mountain are too vicious."

"It is said that these two people are cruel and vicious, and they will never leave any merchants who are targeted by them alive." Xiang Chong added.

"Lengyan Mountain?" Zhang Zhengdao pondered.

"Brother, I will mobilize a thousand troops and horses to conquer that cold mountain to avenge the three brothers and eliminate evil on the green forest road!" Bian Xiang stood up and shouted.

"This matter is not urgent. Let's send two smart brothers to find out the details of Lengyan Mountain before sending troops!" Zhang Zhengdao stretched out his hand to signal Bian Xiang to sit down and don't be anxious!
