Xianxia version of Water Margin

…

Song Jiang cried heartbrokenly. While crying, he said: Every time he rushes down the mountain to borrow food or to attack the state capital, he has good intentions and it is all for Naitou Mountain. Chao Gai is the master of the village, how can he do anything lightly? If something happens, where will Naitoushan go? Moreover, this time Chao Gai personally went down the mountain to attack Zengtou City. God had sent down strong winds that broke Chao Gai's newly made military flags, and lowered the oracle. He and Wu Yong tried hard to persuade Chao Gai, but Chao Gai refused to listen. To go this way...

Song Jiang looked as if he had thousands of grievances in his chest and could not express them, as if Chao Gai had listened to the slander but did not believe in his loyalty, which made an upright and loyal man like him feel extremely wronged.

Wu Yong, on the other hand, looked really sad. He didn't say a word and didn't listen to what Song Jiang was saying. He just sat there quietly.

And all the leaders in the village said: "Brother Chao Tianwang is coming down from the mountain now. He doesn't want to be in this situation. It's a sign that the flag will be recognized by the wind. Brother Gongming, please stop being sad, issue a military order, and teach the leaders on the front to withdraw their troops." , to deal with the funeral affairs, Zengtou City is too anxious to take it."

Some leaders also suggested setting up a mourning shed and everyone in the village wearing mourning to perform great duties for Chao Gai.

Hearing this, Hua Rong couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but said: "Well... maybe King Chao Tian is not dead yet?"

As soon as Hua Rong said this, everyone present, including Song Jiang and Wu Yong, were all startled!

The highest state of acting is self-hypnosis, making yourself believe that everything you say is true, so how can the well-intentioned audience not believe it?

But the problem is that the news brought back by Dai Zong is that Chao Gai was hit by a medicinal arrow and may not die soon. Moreover, the medicinal arrow was not hit, and Dai Zong has not seen it with his own eyes.

OK.

To take a step back, even if Chao Gai was hit by a medicine arrow.

But if you are hit by a medicine arrow, will you definitely die? Couldn't a doctor or doctor save Chao Gai's life?

Song Jiang knew that as long as Chao Gai was hit by that poisonous arrow, he would definitely die.

Wu Yong knew that Song Jiang had been planning for so long and would be absolutely foolproof. Chao Gai would definitely die if he was caught in the attack.

Some of the other leaders pretended to be confused, while others let the sad atmosphere created by Song Jiang lead them into the ditch, ignoring the fact that Chao Gai was not dead yet.

Only Hua Rong, who followed Jiang Hongfei's instructions, has been looking at this problem calmly.

As a result, Song Jiang was embarrassed!

He was too impatient, or in other words, too eager, that he made such a big loophole.

But Song Jiang reacted quickly. With red eyes, he grabbed Hua Rong's hand with both hands and said in a tearful voice: "Look at me, caring makes me chaotic. With my good brother's words, I ask God to bless the King of Heaven and keep him safe. If the King of Heaven makes a mistake, , Song Jiang is willing to trade his own life for the life of the King of Heaven!"

Song Jiang's performance and Song Jiang's words were all so sincere and sincere, no one could find fault with him.

But the premise is that you can't look at Song Jiang's previous performance, and you can't think about what's going on here.

The second child always questions the boss's plans for the village, forms cliques among the leaders, and spreads personal favors. He also builds his own reputation outside and tries every means to steal credit. As a result, only the second child is known both inside and outside the village. There is a boss.

Can such a thing be erased with a few tears and a few words?

As soon as he pointed out that Chao Gai was not dead yet, Hua Rong had already disobeyed Jiang Hongfei's instructions.

From now on, no matter what flaws Song Jiang reveals, Hua Rong will just pretend that he didn't see it, let alone expose their acting.

Song Jiang, who realized that the news of Chao Gai's death had not yet come, and it was too early to start performing hard now, sent Dai Zong to quickly take a doctor to "treat Chao Gai's injuries."

Maybe he was too eager to know the news of Chao Gai's death, or maybe he didn't teach him a lesson. In the end, Song Jiang couldn't help but said to Dai Zong: "Go back quickly!", which made Hua Rong hear the problem again.

There were so many flaws in Song Jiang that Hua Rong even felt that he had preconceived ideas and thought too badly of Song Jiang? All of this may not be what he imagined at all. Maybe...Song Jiang really cares about Chao Gai and the future of Naitoushan?

Let’s talk about Song Jiang.

Song Jiang used conspiracy and tricks to deal with Chao Gai.

But in using Hua Rong, Song Jiang actually used a conspiracy.

Song Jiang's original plan was to let Hua Rong help him shoot Chao Gai.

But Song Jiang tested Hua Rong's tone and determined that Hua Rong was no longer the innocent boy who obeyed his orders before, but a general under Jiang Hongfei who had his own ideas.

This makes Song Jiang dare not put his chips on Hua Rong, an unreliable person. After all, Jiang Hongfei behind Hua Rong is too difficult to deal with. If Jiang Hongfei thinks that he is plotting against Jiang Hongfei, he will be in big trouble.

Therefore, Song Jiang could only settle for the next best thing and find one of his men to do the dirty work.

In the end, Song Jiang chose to let Mu Hong do this. Fearing that Mu Hong was not qualified for the task, Song Jiang asked Hua Rong to help Mu Hong strengthen his archery skills.

But this does not mean that Hua Rong is useless now.

In fact, Song Jiang even used the tricks of cheating death to lure Hua Rong to Naitou Mountain, not only to let Hua Rong be his killer or to help him train Mu Hong, but also to kill Chao Behind the cover, let Hua Rong block Jiang Hongfei's anger.

Again, Song Jiang is not afraid of ten thousand Chao Gai.

Song Jiang was only afraid that Jiang Hongfei would deal with him personally.

Song Jiang knew very well that even though he already had a large group of mobs on his hands, if Jiang Hongfei really wanted to deal with him, he would still be useless.

Hua Rong is one of Jiang Hongfei's most respected brothers, and Hua Rong's sister is one of the women Jiang Hongfei likes very much.

If Hua Rong intercedes with Jiang Hongfei, Jiang Hongfei will definitely sell Hua Rong's favor.

In other words, Hua Rong is Song Jiang's gold medal to avoid death in Jiang Hongfei's place, and it can at least save his life.

Will Hua Rong be angry because Song Jiang took advantage of him?

meeting.

But it doesn't matter.

Because Song Jiang knew Hua Rong very well, he was sure and certain that even if Hua Rong was angry with him and despised him as a person, and his relationship with Hua Rong was no longer as good as before, Hua Rong would definitely not watch him being beaten to death by Jiang Hongfei. .

The key is that from beginning to end, Song Jiang and Jiang Hongfei had no direct conflict, and Song Jiang never dared to offend Jiang Hongfei. On the contrary, Song Jiang, like Chao Gai, had been trying to curry favor with Jiang Hongfei.

For this reason, Song Jiang even gave the women he was attracted to to Jiang Hongfei to play with. Is he worthy of Jiang Hongfei?

And even if Song Jiang harmed Chao Gai, Jiang Hongfei could choose to ignore it.

The key point is, what Jiang Hongfei wants, that is, what Chao Gai can give, Song Jiang can also give, and he is absolutely willing to give it to Jiang Hongfei.

In short, Song Jiang has thought of a perfect strategy. Even if Jiang Hongfei personally comes to seek justice for Chao Gai after he kills Chao Gai, Song Jiang feels that he will be able to deal with Jiang Hongfei's anger.

Song Jiang believed that he had calculated everything perfectly, and even if there were some mistakes in some small links, it would not affect the overall situation.

But soon Song Jiang's heart became excited again!

——Dai Zong, who went to inquire about the news, did not come back for a long time.

On this day, Xue Yong, dressed in filial piety, suddenly returned to Naitou Mountain and paid his respects to Song Jiang: "Brother, the coffin of the King of Heaven will be back soon. What instructions do you have?"

After hearing this, Song Jiang was overjoyed. He was even so excited that his fists in his sleeves clenched tightly!

But on the surface, Song Jiang asked with a look of disbelief: "The King of Heaven has passed away? How could it be possible? Doesn't it mean that the King of Heaven was just hit by a medicine arrow, and the doctor I sent failed to cure the injury of the King of Heaven? Doctor, I need his life!" "

Speaking of the doctor he sent, Song Jiang couldn't help but think of Dai Zong again. He couldn't figure out why it was Xue Yong who came back to report the news and not the fast-legged Dai Zong?

Xue Yong was startled and asked: "When did my brother send a doctor to treat the King of Heaven's injuries? The doctor who treated the King of Heaven was captured by us near Zengtou City. Those doctors all said that the Chinese medicine arrows used by the King of Heaven were taken from Five kinds of poisons, one of ordinary people will die immediately. The King of Heaven is a powerful Qi practitioner and a Qi practitioner with enhanced attributes. He only survived for three days and died. We respect Mr. Yiqing's order and all wear them. Return to the mountain in plain clothes."

"Dai Zong is lost?!"

This was Song Jiang's first thought and the only reasonable explanation.

Is this possible?

have.

In this world full of bandits, it is not impossible that Dai Zong and the doctor he brought were given medicine and turned into steamed bun fillings, or some other accident happened.

But is this a bit too coincidental?

Dai Zong didn't get into trouble sooner or later, but something happened just when Song Jiang was about to win a big victory?

How could this not make Song Jiang's heart twitch?

But what Xue Yong said was perfect, and things should develop this way.

Xue Yong is also from Song Jiang.

It’s no wonder that Song Jiang doesn’t believe this.

Moreover, Song Jiang didn't want to and couldn't believe that he would lose after spending so much time planning carefully!

So Song Jiang ordered: "Everyone on the mountain and down the mountain are in uniform and come down to welcome the spirit. Please respectfully invite the King of Heaven to return to the mountain!"

Following Song Jiang's order, all the people on Naitou Mountain put on white mourning clothes, and the leaders, big and small, and the gangsters of the village, including the guest Hua Rong, all came down the mountain.

Soon, black, white, and yellow spiritual flags were seen all over the mountains and fields, fluttering in the wind. Against the background of the sad music, white paper money fell from the sky like snowflakes, covering the sky and the earth. Song Jiang, big and small leaders on Naitou Mountain, tens of thousands of them. The cries of the minions on Tou Mountain were intertwined with the sounds of mourning and music, which was earth-shattering.

This scene exaggerates the sorrowful mood of the crowd, the desolate environment, and the tragic atmosphere to the extreme. It also makes the tragic image radiant with Chao Gai, touching the heart and moving people to tears.

This made Hua Rong and everyone on both sides extremely sad.

It can be seen how successful the atmosphere created by Song Jiang and others was.

Not long after, a funeral procession composed of more than 3,000 people wearing mourning clothes appeared in the sight of Song Jiang and others.

I saw Liu Tang and Dian taking the lead, holding high white flags embroidered with the words "The golden boy leads the way and rides the dragon to the east" and "The jade girl sends Penglai to ride the crane and be happy", walking at the front of the team.

Gongsun Sheng and Li Ying protected the coffin head on the left and right, while Bai Sheng alone held up a big word "Die" in front of the coffin and cried in lamentation.

"Brother Tianwang, my best friend!!!"

Song Jiang burst into tears and went straight to Chao Gai's coffin to greet him as if he were mourning his heir!

Wu Yong was not as exaggerated as Song Jiang, but he burst into tears silently as he walked towards Chao Gai's coffin. Scenes from the past when he and Chao Gai were together flashed through his eyes, arousing his dusty thoughts. The memories of many years made him unable to hold back tears.

Song Jiang's wailing and Wu Yong's silent tears were in sharp contrast.

Gongsun Sheng and Li Ying signaled the team to stop and looked at Song Jiang quietly without saying a word.

This was true not only for Gongsun Sheng and Li Ying, but also for everyone else in the funeral procession.

Liu Tang and Su Ding each moved a step behind the leaders without leaving a trace, preventing those leaders and minions from coming up.

The more Song Jiang cried, the more he felt something was wrong. Why didn't anyone come to comfort him?

Moreover, Song Jiang deeply felt the hostility from around him.

The key is that Li Cheng, Wen Da, Qin Ming, Jiang Zhong, Cui Daocheng, Qiu Xiaoyi, Wang Daoren, Mu Hong, Yan Shun, Huang Xin and others who were under Song Jiang's expedition with Chao Gai were not around.

good.

Song Jiang and Chao Gai were already at odds with each other. Everyone under their command knew this and hated each other.

But Chao Gai is already dead, so what else is there to argue with the dead? Besides, after all, Chao Gai was the honorary master of the village in Naitoushan. He wore mourning clothes to see Chao Gai off on his last journey. Even if there were a few rough guys who didn't understand this, there must be someone who would advise them and take a step back. , even if no one advises them, it’s impossible for them all not to be in this mourning team, right?

Fortunately, Song Jiang vaguely saw Zhu Tong and Lei Heng at the back of the mourning procession. This made Song Jiang feel a little calmer, guessing that Qin Ming and the others might also be behind the mourning procession.

Song Jiang just carried it on and cried bitterly.

But Song Jiang was too eager to win this time and was careless, convincing him that all the unreasonable things were reasonable, but Wu Yong would not be like this.

yes.

Although Wu Yong was also one of the accomplices in killing Chao Gai, this does not mean that there was no affection between Wu Yong and Chao Gai.

On the contrary, people are not grass and trees, and they can become ruthless after practice. After all, Chao Gai and Wu Yong have known each other for twenty or thirty years. For so many years, Chao Gai has always taken care of Wu Yong. Such feelings are not enough to be explained to outsiders.

But although Wu Yong was sad, he did not regret his choice.

Because Chao Gai is an Adou who cannot be supported, far worse than Song Jiang. As long as he stays in Naitou Mountain for one day, he will be the biggest obstacle to the development of Naitou Mountain.

Moreover, Wu Yong is already in his forties and is no longer young. He doesn't want to continue to waste time like this.

Also, Wu Yong compares himself to Zhuge Liang, no, he feels that he is more powerful than Zhuge Liang. This is not difficult to see from the word "Jialiang" he gave himself. Therefore, he is unwilling to be a chicken tail with Jiang Hongfei. He wants to He should be regarded as the "Prime Minister Zhuge" who strategizes, which is something Jiang Hongfei cannot give him.

Therefore, Wu Yong was really sad, but he did not completely lose his mind because of it.

Song Jiang could see the problem, how could Wu Yong not see it?

Wu Yong also noticed the positions of Gongsun Sheng and Li Ying.

I don't know when, Gongsun Sheng and Li Ying sandwiched him and Song Jiang. If something happened, Gongsun Sheng and Li Ying could capture him and Song Jiang.

Wu Yong's heart sank: "It's broken! I'm afraid this matter will change?!"

But now that the matter has come to this, Zhi Duoxing has no good solution. He can only bite the bullet and say in Song Jiang's ear: "Brother, please teach the brothers to pay respects to the remains of the King of Heaven."

After Wu Yong's reminder, Song Jiang also regained some sense. He ordered: "Open the coffin and teach the brothers to pay respects to the remains of the King of Heaven."

No one disobeyed Song Jiang's orders.

Gongsun Sheng even waved his sleeves, and the dark coffin lid slid to the back.

Seeing this, Song Jiang immediately reached over and took a look inside the coffin.

"It's Chao Gai!" Song Jiang was overjoyed!

But then, Song Jiang realized that something seemed wrong?

Why is Chao Gai's face so red? He doesn't look like a dead person at all?

Also, is Chao Gai not a traditional Chinese medicine arrow? Where's the injury? Where's the poison?

Before Song Jiang could think about it, Chao Gai in the coffin suddenly opened his eyes! ! !
