Wang Lun smiled slightly, and did not ask Zhu Wu and others what they had changed their minds. Zhu Wu himself said: "Today we had a misunderstanding with the Taohuashan brothers, and we saw both sides suffer. Fortunately, Master Wang arrived in time, and we The thunderous tactics caused the two families to stop fighting and save many innocent brothers from casualties. Master Wang is not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also has a benevolent and chivalrous heart that we all admire from the bottom of our hearts.
Just now I heard that the two eldest brothers Li Zhong and Zhou Tong said that they would abandon Peach Blossom Village and go to Liangshan to join Master Wangzhuang. Only then did I realize that Master Wangzhuang’s heroic journey of helping those in need was actually the leader of heroes in the Central Plains, while we are living in a deserted mountain. Nomura didn't even know the name of Master Wangzhuang, he was really ignorant.
After some discussion, we brothers also wanted to throw our whole group into Liangshan and take shelter under the command of Master Wang. We are willing to dedicate all the flowers and stone outlines to Master Wang to show our sincerity. Our like-minded hearts can be learned from heaven and earth. I hope Master Wang will allow it. We will return to Liangshan. "
Wang Lun was naturally happy when he saw that Zhu Wu was willing to lead the troops from Shaohua Mountain to Liangshan. Now that the foundation of Liangshan was just being built, it was time to recruit troops to expand its strength. The two hills of Shaohua Mountain and Taohua Mountain together had a total of five to seven hundred people. Li Zhong and Zhou Tong are highly skilled in martial arts, and Chen Da and Yang Chun have experience in leading troops. They will definitely be of great use in the future, especially Zhu Wu. He is a good choice for his talent in strategizing and adapting to changes. He is also well versed in the art of war, which is a rare talent. , how could Wang Lun not want to.
But Wang Lun remained unmoved on his face, and just smiled and said: "Although it is just the first time for me to meet all the brothers today, Wang feels that he has the same temperament and feels that we meet each other late. All the brothers have turned to me." Liangshan wants me to do it, so why should I not want to do it?
It's just that several brothers have their own family business in Shaohua Mountain, and several brothers are the masters of the same village. If they go to Liangshan, they will not only have to leave their family and business and travel thousands of miles, but also after arriving in Liangshan, they will have to line up with the other brothers in Liangshan. As for seating, the differences between these choices need to be reconsidered by the brothers. "
"We have already considered these things." Zhu Wu sighed and said: "To say that the family fortune in Shaohua Mountain is indeed accumulated by me and other brothers fighting for their lives. It is really hard to give it up like this. But the situation is stronger than the people. We have received news that Mr. Souchong, the manager, has led his troops to Shaohua Mountain. Now Shaohua Mountain must have become a piece of rubble and scorched earth.
Even if we seize the Huashi Gang now and go back to Shaohua Mountain to rebuild it, we will still bear the crime of robbing the emperor's gang and beheading him. Once the government knows that it will definitely send troops to encircle and suppress it, just rely on me and several hundred brothers. How can we resist? The future is really uncertain, life or death is unknown, and the money is probably wasted without my life.
As for the position of the leader of the village, we didn't care about it at first. Besides, we can't even go back to the village now. What's the point of having those false names? I, Zhu Wu, don't know how to live in false names while dealing with real disasters. Dry.
And it’s not that I, Zhu Wu, am boasting. I don’t have any other abilities, but I am always good at judging people. Ever since I met Lord Wang today, I can see that Lord Wang has great ambitions and far-reaching vision, which is definitely not comparable to ordinary people like us. We will definitely accomplish great things in the future. If we brothers can follow Master Wang, we will be able to achieve something in the future. This way, our journey to this world will not be in vain. "
After Zhu Wu finished speaking, he winked at Chen Da and Yang Chun. The three of them immediately fell to the ground and knelt down to Wang Lun. They said in unison: "The three of us are willing to lead all the brothers in Shaohua Mountain to follow Master Wang to the death." Side by side, we will never turn our backs on each other in this life. If we break the oath, our shoulders will be covered with yellow sand and our bones will be incomplete."
Li Zhong and Zhou Tong saw Zhu Wu vomiting lotus flowers and talking impassionedly. Wang Lun's face became more and more beautiful. Although they had surrendered to Wang Lun and expressed their loyalty just now, they still felt that If he didn't say something at this time, it seemed like Zhu Wu and the others would steal the limelight.
Li Zhong immediately glanced at Zhou Tong, and Zhou Tong understood. The two immediately turned to Wang Lun, knelt down on the ground, and said in unison: "We are not as good at talking as they are. Now that the eldest brother has accepted us, Our lives belong to our eldest brother, if we have second thoughts, we will die badly."
Wang Lun laughed loudly, stood up, stretched out his hands to help Zhu Wu and others up one by one, and said: "Brothers, please get up quickly. It's rare that all the brothers think highly of me as their brothers and are willing to defect to Liangshan. Now the small village in Liangshan has just been built." , we are in need of talents. All the brothers are heroes in the martial arts world, and they are also loyal and upright good men.
With all the brothers helping me today, Liangshan's great cause will surely be accomplished in the future. From now on, I, Wang Lun, will share the difficulties and blessings with all the brothers. "
Zhu Wu, Li Zhong and others were all overjoyed when they saw that Wang Lun agreed to join Liangshan. They immediately called Wang Lun their eldest brother, broke their arrows as an oath, knelt down and worshiped, and then gathered all the people from the two mountains in the valley. Together, five to seven hundred people knelt down in front of Wang Lun and saluted the leader.
Wang Lunan sat on the wooden box, accepted the courtesy from everyone, encouraged everyone, and ordered the injured brothers to be treated for their injuries. He also asked Zhu Wu and Li Zhong to send people to bury the brothers who died on the two mountains one by one. Then he led everyone to pay homage in front of the graves of the deceased brothers. Wang Lun personally burned incense and prayed, wishing that the deceased brothers would be happy soon and be brothers again in the next life.
Wang Lun then asked Zhu Wu and Li Zhong to pass on the order. From then on, the people of Shaohua Mountain and Taohua Mountain became one family. No one can remember the past grudges anymore. Brothers must live in harmony and must not provoke private quarrels or retaliate. Liangshan Law He is strict, and if anyone harms his brothers, he will be severely punished.
After paying homage to the dead brothers, Zhu Wu asked Wang Lun for instructions: "Brother, we just had a fierce battle here, and there must be a noise. I am afraid it has alerted the government. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. We should leave here early. "
"That's right." Wang Lun nodded approvingly and said to Li Zhong, "Peach Blossom Mountain is far away from here. Let's go to Peach Blossom Mountain first and then discuss our next move."
"Not far, not far." Li Zhong nodded repeatedly and said, "It's less than half a day's journey from here."
Wang Lun asked Li Zhong to send people to lead the way, while Wang Lun, Zhu Wu and others led the newly recruited brothers to Peach Blossom Mountain.
After walking for half a day, the group of people arrived at the foot of Peach Blossom Mountain. Li Zhong and Zhou Tong led everyone up the mountain. Wang Lun, Zhu Wu, Xiao Wu, Ping'er and others were watching the scenery in the mountain on the road, and they saw a Peach Blossom Mountain. It's a very strange place, with steep surroundings. There's only one way to go up, and there's a lot of grass all around.
Xiao Wu looked up and down, left and right for a long time, but didn't see a peach tree or a peach blossom. Xiao Wu felt strange, so she called Li Zhong and said: "Little Lizi, there isn't even a peach tree on your Peach Blossom Mountain, but why is it called Peach Blossom Mountain?"
"I don't know either." Li Zhong scratched his head.
Everyone laughed. Although Li Zhong, Zhou Tong and others had lived in Peach Blossom Mountain for a long time, no one knew why Peach Blossom Mountain without peach blossoms was called Peach Blossom Mountain.
Everyone didn't go into details, they just walked up the mountain and talked along the way, which was very lively. Xiao Wu had a simple and bold personality, which was popular with people. In less than half a day, he became familiar with Zhu Wu, Li Zhong and others.
Xiao Wu also changed everyone's names. Li Zhong, Zhou Tong, and Yang Chun were called Xiao Lizi, Da Zhou, and Xiao Chunzi. Several people accepted it happily, but when they arrived at Chen Da's place, they were all covered with hair. The black line is just because Xiao Wu called Chen Da 'Xiao Da Zi'.
Chen Da felt awkward, but he didn't dare to refute. Firstly, Xiao Wu was Wang Lun's sister, and secondly, Xiao Wu was very skilled in martial arts and he was not his opponent. However, in fact, Xiao Wu was an unintentional person and did not mean to do anything deliberately. After humiliating Chen Da and calling him a few times, Chen Da no longer felt awkward, and in the end it was even more pleasant to his ears.
Zhu Wu also had his name changed. He was originally called Xiao Wu by Xiao Wu, but later he felt that it was the same as his own name and was easy to be confused with, so he changed his name to A Wu.
Wang Lun led a large group of people to Taohua Mountain immediately, and Li Zhong ordered them to go down, kill sheep and cattle, and hold a banquet in honor of Wang Lun and Zhu Wu.
At the banquet, Zhu Wu, Li Zhong and others asked Wang Lun for instructions on when to go to Liangshan. Because Wang Lun wanted to go west to Shaanxi, he could not take Zhu Wu and others back to Liangshan. After everyone discussed it, Zhu Wu and others decided to go to Liangshan. Li Zhong led his troops to Liangshan on his own.
Wang Lun then went to Liangshan to drink Machuan, Pei Xuan and others, wrote a letter explaining the reason, and asked Ping'er to take out the Liangshan Order with the word "Ping" and give it to Zhu Wu as a token of going up the mountain and joining the gang. .
The two groups from Shaohuashan and Taohuashan agreed to go to Liangshan, and everyone drank happily. During the dinner, Zhu Wu asked Wang Lun, "May I ask what is going on with my brother going west this time?"
How could Wang Lun hide it from his brothers? He told the truth and said to everyone: "Do you know who I am, Wang Jin, the master Shi Dalang went to find?"
Everyone said they didn't know, Wang Lun said with a smile: "But he is Xiao Wu's and I's fourth uncle. Due to an accident at home many years ago, the family was separated. There was no news for more than ten years. Only recently did we get the news. We know that the fourth uncle is Xiao Wu's uncle." Uncle Wang Jin is now serving as an officer under Mr. Lao Zhongjinglue of the Gansu-Shaanxi Jinglue Mansion. We are going here to invite our fourth uncle to Jiangnan to attend the wedding of my second brother Wang Yin."
Zhu Wu smiled and said: "If we hadn't said that we were destined to be eldest brother, we would have been a family for a long time."
Everyone laughed and toasted to Wang Lun, Xiao Wu and Ping'er to congratulate Wang Lun and his family on their reunion.
"Brother is going all the way to the west. It's a long journey." Zhu Wulu pondered for a while, but then said: "There are two girls, Xiao Wu and Ping'er, beside me. Everything is inconvenient. I think it's better for me to take a few people from the village with me. Brother, if you follow your elder brother all the way, you can also arrange food and lodging on the way and have someone to take care of you."
Wang Lun thought about it. It had been more than half a month since the three of them had descended from Liangshan. They had been tired from traveling all the way, so he was fine. Xiao Wu was fine too, but Ping'er already looked a little haggard. I felt very distressed. If Zhu Wu could lead someone to serve and take care of them all the way, Xiao Wu and Ping'er would be spared the hardship of the journey.
