Wu skillfully placed serial array, killed the official army defeat, in addition to a few lucky escape, most of the official army was not killed, is captured, even Huang An was captured alive, escorted into the back mountain cell.
Chao Gai in Liangshan stand firm, think of if not Song Jiang news, I am afraid early was arrested by the government cut off the head, and think of Zhu Tong dark trick, deliberately put him, this day of great kindness, can not not report. He sent someone to Jizhou to save Bai Sheng, one side called Liu Tang, let Wu write a letter of gratitude, take out two hundred and two gold, life Liu Tang disguised, go to Yuncheng County to thank Song Jiang, Zhu Tong.
Jeju governor even eat twice lost the battle, did not get a thief hair, was the boss took a, leather job. As soon as the new governor took office, he issued an official document, ordering the counties to guard against thieves. Yuncheng County received an official document, Song Jiang saw, surprised, think of Chao Gai and so on make things bigger, if he is known to be tipped off, only fear of life. Song Jiang, full of worries, came out from the county office to eat tea in the opposite teahouse, and saw a big man walking in the dust, turning his face and staring at the yamen gate. Song Jiang heart move, followed out, walked twenty or thirty steps, the big Han puppet once back, Song Jiang feel where have seen, can not remember, and dare not ask. Big Han also stared at Song Jiang for a while, to the roadside shop to inquire, busy catch up with Song Jiang, said: "a si, borrow a place to talk."
The two men came to a restaurant, chose a room to sit down, the old man leaned on his sword, took off the burden, knelt down and worshiped. Song Jiang hurriedly returned the gift and asked, "What is your surname?" The big man said, "My brother and I met once on Chao Baozheng Zhuang. I am the red-haired ghost Liu Tang." Song Jiang was shocked and said, "Brother Xian is so bold that he dared to find me in front of the county government." Liu Tang said, "Your saving grace is heavier than Mount Tai, why am I afraid of dying?" Chao Gai brother repeatedly worship on the benefactor, let the younger brother sent gold one hundred and two, another one hundred and two to thank Zhu Tong, Lei Heng." Liu Tang opened the bundle and took out the gold and letters. Song Jiang only took a letter, received a gold bar, wrapped it with a letter, put it in a letter bag, asked Liu Tang to still wrap the gold, and then let the bartender serve the wine. Song Jiang said: "Cottage start-up, everywhere to use money, my home is not short of money, you take back, even if I stored in the cottage." I accept this gold bar, even if led the Chao Gai brother's hospitality. You also do not go to Zhu Tong, Lei Heng, Lei Heng good gambling, if the gold bar to the casino, it will be exposed. Besides, the two of them didn't know I tipped them off, so now more people know. I will not leave you, don't let people recognize you, you can go back to the cottage overnight, convey my respect to the Chao Gai brother and the leaders." Liu Tang said: "The orders of the cottage are strict, I will go back in this way, I will be punished, my brother must accept the gold." Song Jiang asked the bartender to borrow the four treasures of the study room, repair a letter, and said: "You take my letter, you can go back to hand in the order." Liu Tang received the letter, through the moonlight, overnight back to Liangshanbo.
Song Jiang mind more heavy, low head back to residence. As they were walking along, they suddenly heard someone behind them shout, "Aisy, where are you going?" Song Jiang back, see is Yan, the heart and add a bit of unhappiness.
Originally, a few months ago, a couple surnamed Yan with their daughter to Yuncheng Xi do not meet, flower disc wrapped, Yan Gong and died of disease, Yan mother and daughter heaven no way, into the ground no door. Mother Yan asked the mediators to find a master for Mother Xi and get some money to bury Lord Yan. Wang Po went to Song Jiang and made a match with Song Jiang. Song Jiang took out a piece of silver, let Yan buy the coffin, buried Yan Gong, only as a good deed, did not want to marry her pity. Yan Po deeply grateful, must marry the wife cherish Song Jiang, when the concubine also line. Song Jiang was entangled but, had to buy a small building, and mother cherish became close. Song Jiang had to practice boxing early in the morning and one night, and he was busy in the yamen, and rarely went home for the night. Yan Bao Xi young, unable to keep the boudoir lonely, with the county Ymen book office small Zhang SAN Zhang Wenyuan hooked up.
Yanpo pull Song Jiang, not let Song Jiang home. Song Jiang couldn't, so he went home with Yan. Upon entering the door, Mrs. Yan called out, "Daughter, Sanlang is here." Yan Po Xi thought it was Zhang Sanlang came, hurriedly meet downstairs, and then look at Song Sanlang, angry "hum" a sound, turned to go upstairs. Yan pushed Song Jiang up to the floor, prepared wine and dishes, let his daughter accompany Song Jiang to drink, and went downstairs. Yan Po Xi lying on the bed, put a backbone to Song Jiang, also ignore. Song Jiang boring, alone to eat a few bowls of wine, in Po Xi feet to sleep. Song Jiang has heard rumors, said Mo Xi and Zhang Wenyuan Ming shop dark cover, see Mo xi so treat him, more convinced, how can sleep? When he reached the five watches, Song Jiang dressed and got up and left in a hurry. Came to the county office, see there is a light, but it is selling medicine maharaja. Song Jiang sat down, ate a bowl of sobriety soup, remembered that he had promised the prince a coffin, reached out his hand to touch the gold bar, but did not bring the bag on his body. The gold bar has nothing to do with gravity, it is Chao Gai that letter, if it falls into the hands of others, it will bring about the disaster of murder. Song Jiang got up quickly and ran home.
Yan Po Xi did not sleep well all night, see Song Jiang leave, want to make the bed, Mei Mei sleep at dawn. She looked up and saw the letter bag on the bed, reached out and took it over, a touch, heavy, took out something to see, is a letter wrapped in a gold bar, not by great joy, good for Zhang Sanlang to buy something to eat. She also knows a few words, open a look, it is Liang Shanbo strongman wrote, written on the letter to Song Jiang gold one hundred and two, thank you for saving lives. Mo Xi more happy, with this letter, you can let Song Jiang submit, obediently hand over one hundred and two gold. She is wishful thinking, Song Jiang rushed back, four to find, do not see the bag, guess is to cherish took, to cherish. Po Xi said: "If you want to collect the letter bag, you must depend on me for two things." Song Jiang said: "You, you." Po Xi said: "First, you do not come back, no matter what I do, you are not allowed to control." Song Jiang said: "Good, good." Po Xi said: "You give me the one hundred and twenty gold Chao Gai gave you." Song Jiang said, "I only accept one gold bar, and I have confiscated one hundred and twenty gold." Po Xi said, "I don't believe that cats don't eat fish." Let Song Jiang wear out his tongue, mother Xi just dont believe. Song Jiang a look, Poxi's bed exposed the bag of ribbons, came forward to take. Po Xi clung to it, and saw that Song Jiang would take it away, Po Xi called: "Black Song Jiang has killed people!"
Song Jiang was her this call, suddenly up the idea of killing. There was a paper knife tied to the paper bag, and Song Jiang pulled out the knife and cut Po Xi's neck only once, blood splashed, and another knife cut off the head, and set the letter on fire on the lamp.
When he went downstairs, Mrs. Yan said, "What are you arguing about?" Song Jiang said, "Your daughter was too rude to me, and I killed her." Yan don't believe, upstairs a look, daughter really decapitated. Song Jiang said: "It has happened, what are you going to do?" Yan said, "How dare I complain? Just ask the Lord to bury her and give me old age to die." Song Jiang promised to come down, two people go out together, to buy a coffin for mother Xi.
When I reached the front door of the county office, the sky was already light. Mrs. Wang suddenly grabbed Song Jiang and shouted to the official standing in front of the yamen: "Come, Song Jiang has killed people!" Song Jiang shuddered with fear. But because Song Jiang usually treated them well, no one started. The maharaja of the soup was busy trying to persuade, and Song Jiang took the opportunity to flee. Mrs. Yan beat the drum and shouted, "Wronged." Shi Wenbin ascension, ask the reason, sent to check the body, on the order to catch Song Jiang.
Song Jiang knows that dry knife and pen official this line when to take risks, do not know when something happened to involve his father, brothers, three years ago, let his father to the county government to tell him disloyal, out of the relationship between father and son, there is the county official document as evidence. When the men arrived at Song Jiazhuang, Song Taigong took out his official documents and said, "Because Song Jiang was not filial, I have driven him out of the house, and his affairs have nothing to do with the old man." The public knew that the documents were superficial articles, and no one went to explain, and returned to the county government.
Zhang Wenyuan hated Song Jiang for killing his concubine, and urged Yan Po to complain: "All the people in the county know that Song Jiang is Xiaoyi Black Sanlang, how can he disobey unfilial?" This document is a smokescreen, just look for the Song Taigong important people." Zhang Wenyuan also said: "If Yan to the boss, said that the master harboring Song Jiang, only fear of bad for the master's future." Shi Wen bin helpless, had to send Zhutong, thunder cross to Songjiazhuang. The two men took forty men with them, and when they saw the prince, they said, "We have been ordered by your lordship to search." Tai Gong said, "The old man broke off contact with him three years ago, so go ahead and search him." Zhu Tong said: "I hold the front door, Leidu head, you lead the search." Lei Heng led the people into the village, searched the story, and said: "Before and after, inside and out have searched over, Song Jiang is indeed not there." Zhu Tong said: "You make the door, I will search it again."
Zhu Tong came to the Buddhist hall, bolt the door, remove the table, lift a piece of floor, find a rope head, pull a few times, underground copper bell sound, Song Jiang drill out of the cellar, see Zhu Tong, was surprised. "Don't be afraid, brother," said Zhu Tong. "You told me about this cellar. Lei Heng and I were ordered to come and get you, and I was afraid that he would put him ahead of him, regardless of his brotherly friendship, and come to you himself. Although the cellar is hidden, it is not always possible to hide in it, and in case the news is leaked and there is nowhere to run, you had better go out and hide for a while." Song Jiang said: "I think, there are three places to settle down: one is the Henghai County of Cangzhou, the second is the Qingfengzhai little Li Guanghua Rong, the third is the white Tiger Mountain Kong Taigong." "If you want to leave tonight," said Zhu Tong, "in case there are many dreams at night." Zhu Tong returned to the village and said: "Really not here." He asked Taigong to take out the document and made a copy. Taigong arranged some wine and meat, took out twenty silver, and thanked the public.
Two people returned to the county government, reported to Shi Wenbin: "The Song jiazhuang search several times, also did not find Song Jiang." A copy of the official document was presented. Shi Wenbin also had a heart to excuse Song Jiang, said: "I know." He wrote official documents to report to the governor, issued an arrest document, arrest Song Jiang. Zhang Wenyuan is not convinced, but the people inside and outside of the county government have friendship with Song Jiang, all say he is not, and mother Xi is dead, why be the wicked again? Zhang Wenyuan had to give up. Zhu tong and put together some money, sent with Yan, told her not to complain to the state, the matter is big, and she is no good, Yan got money, had to pull down.
That night, Song Jiang bade farewell to his father, escorted by his brother Song Qing, an iron fan, and went straight to Cangzhou Chai Jin Zhuang. Zhuang said the official people go to Dongzhuang, and asked Song Jiang name, Song Jiang truthfully reported, Zhuang guests Song Jiang brothers to Dongzhuang, informed, firewood hurriedly welcome out. Two people to worship, Song Jiang and let Song Qing also saw firewood into, three people into the village, to sit down in the main hall. Chai Jin asked: "Brother how free to come to our village?" Song Jiang said kill Yan Po Xi, come to escape for a while. Chai Jin said: "Brother rest assured, even if you kill the official of the court, Chai Jin also dare to hide in the village."
Said, firewood into Song Jiang brothers to take a bath, to be two people wash bath, the back hall has set up a wine banquet. Chai into Song Jiang sat first, his seat, let Song Qing sat on the side seat. The three ate until the evening, and Song Jiang said, "That's enough wine." Where does Chai go in? Order people to light candles and eat until the first night. Song Jiang to pee, Chai into life a zhuang guest carrying a lantern to Song Jiang according to the road. Song Jiang to the east corridor at the end of the net hand, return, took a big circle, from the other end of the corridor back. By this time he was drunk and unsteady on his feet. There was a big man under the porch, because of malaria, with a shovel shovel some charcoal fire, is warming. Song Jiang stepped on , and the charcoal fire in his shovel blew the big man's face.
The big man was very angry, jumped up, grabbed Song Jiang, and shook his fist to fight. The farmer advised, "Don't be rude! This is the most important official to treat!" Dahan sneered: "When I first came, I was also the most treated guest of the big official, but now I am alienated." Said, still want to hit Song Jiang. Zhuang guest came to pull, is pulling not open, I saw a few zhuang guest surrounded firewood into flying also seemed to come. Chai Jin asked, "What happened?" That Zhuang guest put Song Jiang stepped on ÏÇ°Ñ said. Chai Jin smiled and said, "Big Man, don't you know this famous Shiji?" The big man said, "Famous? Can he have a Yuncheng County Song Yasi famous?" Chai Jin pointed to Song Jiang and said, "He is the timely rain Song Gongming." The big man knelt down in panic and said: "The little man has eyes and does not see Mount Tai, and has offended his brother." Song Jiang picked up the big man and asked, "What's your name?" Chai Jin said: "He is Qinghe County, surname Wu song, the second ranking, has been here for a year." Song Jiang said: "Everywhere in the rivers and lakes there is a legend of Wu Erlang's name, but do not want to meet here." Song Jiang took Wu Song to the table together.
