Wang Lun immediately nodded in agreement, and asked Zhu Wu to hand over the letter and token to Li Zhong, and Li Zhong took two mountains of troops to surrender to Liangshan. Li Zhong naturally accepted the order.

Everyone left happily that night, but Xiao Wu, the drunkard, was the happiest. Not only did he make a lot of good friends, but he also had good wine, so he was naturally happy. Although Ping'er was tired, she always stayed with Wang Lun until After everyone dispersed, they rested together with Wang Lun.

Early the next morning, everyone got up and set off. As for how to transport the captured flowers and stones to Liangshan, Zhu Wu had already made an idea. Zhu Wu ordered people to prepare fifty grain carts and hide all the gold and silver treasures in the grain. In the car, Li Zhong, Chen Da and others were asked to pretend to be officers and soldiers escorting grain and transporting grass to Liangshan.

Zhu Wu also took out the official guide that had been prepared and took it with Li Zhong. This way across the state and government, it was enough to hide from the government's interrogation and ensure a safe journey. Everyone sighed that Zhu Wu was as meticulous as dust.

At the same time, in order to ensure the convenience of traveling westward, Zhu Wu had two more carriages prepared, one to carry luggage and items, and one for the two girls Xiao Wu and Ping'er to ride. The two carriages looked simple and unpretentious on the outside, but inside they were But it is brocade and fragrant fur, spacious and comfortable, and it can accommodate seven or eight people without any problem.

Zhu Wu selected eight more clever and clever minions to act as companions. Four of them were responsible for driving the carriage and taking care of the characters' carriages and horses along the way. The other four rode fast horses, galloped back and forth, explored the way, and arranged food and drink. Stay.

When everything was ready, everyone waved goodbye at the foot of Peach Blossom Mountain. Li Zhong, Zhou Tong, Chen Da, and Yang Chun went eastward to Liangshan with their own troops, not to mention.

But Wang Lun, Zhu Wu, Xiao Wu and Ping'er were heading west. Ping'er was riding in a car, but Xiao Wu wanted to ride a horse. Moreover, they were said to be wandering around the world on their own. They only had light-furred horses, drunk and singing wildly. I saw people riding in carriages, so I rode on a fast horse and rode side by side with Wang Lun and Zhu Wu.

Less than half a day later, Xiao Wu started to get excited when she saw the carriage. As soon as Ping'er called out to her, Xiao Wu jumped into the carriage and never came out again. She only chatted with Ping'er in the carriage.

Wang Lun and others traveled westward for more than one day. Along the way, whether they were staying at hotels or passing customs, Zhu Wu arranged the food. He was extremely careful and considerate, and Xiao Wu and Ping'er were not dissatisfied.

And this Zhu Wu is a good talker. Whenever Wang Lun has something, he will discuss it with Zhu Wu.

Moreover, this trip was different from the previous one. Zhu Wu and others were accompanying him, making the journey very lively.

On this day, while admiring the scenery on the road, Wang Lun suddenly became inspired by poetry. Thinking of a phrase from Water Margin, he casually mentioned it: "Rugged mountains, lonely villages. Wearing clouds and sleeping in the deserted forest at night, leading the morning moon towards the Climb the dangerous road. Walk around at sunset and hear the barking of dogs. The frost is coming early and hear the crow of cocks. The shadows of the mountains are about to sink, and the willow shades are gradually disappearing. The broken clouds reflect the red light on the water, and the dusk turns to green mist. The fisherman by the stream returns to the village, and the wild The woodcutter returned with a heavy burden.”

Zhu Wu, Ping'er, and Xiao Wu were all people who knew poetry. When they heard Wang Lun's poem, they all praised it. Although the few companions didn't understand it, they knew it must be a good poem, and they applauded loudly.

Zhu Wu originally thought that Wang Lun was just a master of martial arts, but he didn't expect that his literary talent was also so famous, and he admired Wang Lun even more in his heart.

The journey was not just for one day, but it was already the bottom of March. On this day, Wang Lun, Zhu Wu and others finally arrived at Weinan Prefecture, an important town in Guanzhong. .

When Wang Lun and others entered the city, they saw a lot of traffic and a lot of excitement. It was a peaceful scene. Wang Lun saw the prosperity in his eyes, but he felt something special in his heart.

It was almost noon, and everyone was ready to find a restaurant to have a drink and rest. Zhu Wu had been in Weizhou for a long time and was familiar with the roads, so he led everyone to the state bridge. Under the bridge was a famous Pan family hotel.

A viewing pole was erected in front of the hotel, with wine bottles hanging on it, floating in the air. On the door of the hotel was a gilded plaque with three large characters: Juying Pavilion.

Everyone entered the store, led by the waiter, and sat down in the Jichuge Children's Room on the second floor facing the street. Zhu Wu ordered wine and dishes, all of which were local specialties. They chatted while eating.

In the middle of the chat, the waiter in the elegant room was leading a guest to find a seat, but he heard the guest ask: "I heard that you also have a Jinglue Mansion here. Do you know where this Jinglue Mansion is?"

The waiter replied: "Not far ahead."

The guest asked again: "Is there a teacher named Wang Jin from Tokyo in this Jinglue Mansion?"

The waiter smiled and said: "There are many instructors in this Jinglue Mansion, and there are several named Wang. I don't know which one is Wang Jin as mentioned by the guest officer."

Wang Lun and others heard the guest talking to the waiter in the private room, but Zhu Wu suddenly smiled at Wang Lun, and Wang Lun said: "I think Shi Dalang is here."

"Brother is right." Zhu Wu said with a smile: "Brother Shi Jin is here, but I don't know why he only arrived today? I'll invite him in."

Zhu Wu stood up, pushed the door open, came outside the room, and said to the guest, "Why did you just arrive today? I've been waiting for you for a long time."

The person outside the house was Shi Jin. When Shi Jin heard someone calling him, he looked up and saw that it was Zhu Wu. He quickly stood up and saluted with his fists clasped, and said with a smile: "Why is it Brother Zhu? How come you are here too?"

Zhu Wu smiled and said: "Dalang came into the room to talk. I am about to introduce someone to you."

How could Shi Jin refuse? He picked up his luggage and knife and followed Zhu Wu into the private room. Wang Lun and other Zhu Wu generals introduced Shi Jin into the room. They saw that Shi Jin was as handsome as jade and vigorous. He couldn't help but admire in his heart. He was indeed beautiful. One for men.

Zhu Wu then introduced Shi Jin: "This is Brother Wang Lun, the owner of Xiaowang Village in Liangshan."

Shi Jin had obviously never heard of Wang Lun's name, but out of courtesy he still put down his baggage knife, came to Wang Lun and saluted with clasped fists, and said: "Since this eldest brother is a friend of eldest brother Zhu Wu, he must be a friend of Jianghu." The famous hero in the world, I have the chance to meet you today, I am so lucky to meet you!"

Wang Lun also stood up and returned the courtesy: "The reputation of the Nine-Patterned Dragon has spread throughout the world. When I see it today, it is well-deserved."

Zhu Wu smiled and said: "Let's sit down and talk."

After everyone sat down, Zhu Wu introduced Xiao Wu and Ping'er to Shi Jin, and Shi Jin greeted them one by one.

Xiao Wu smiled at Wang Lun and said, "Brother, this Shi Jin is much more handsome than you."

This sentence made everyone laugh. Shi Jin didn't know why Zhu Wu came to Weizhou, so he asked Zhu Wu in a low voice: "When Brother Zhu was in Shaohua Mountain, didn't he say that he was going to seize the Huashi Gang? Why did he come to Weizhou today? Woolen cloth?"

Zhu Wu looked at Wang Lun, Wang Lun nodded, Zhu Wu separated from Shaohua Mountain and Shi Jin, and led the Shaohua Mountain troops to design and seize Huashi Gang. He met Li Zhong and Zhou Tong from Taohua Mountain and robbed him. Wang Lun told Shi Jin in detail how he stopped the conflagration between the two families.

After Zhu Wu finished speaking, he smiled at Shi Jin and said, "This time I am accompanying Master Wang and the two girls Xiao Wu and Ping'er to go to Yan'an Mansion to find someone. I am just passing through Weizhou. Dalang, do you know?" Who is Zhuang Wang mainly looking for? "

Shi Jin shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Zhu Wudao: "Look for your master Wang Jin."

Shi Jinqi asked: "So Master Wang also wants to find my master?"

Wang Lun said: "Exactly."

Zhu Wu added: "If you look at it carefully, Master Wang Zhuang should be your senior brother."

"Oh?" Shi Jin was even more surprised and asked, "How do you say this?"

Wang Lun then told Shi Jin about his relationship with Wang Jin and the reason why he came to see Wang Jin this time.

Shi Jin was overjoyed and immediately stood up to salute Wang Lun and said, "If we are destined to meet you thousands of miles away, I should call Master Wang Lun my senior brother."

"That's the best." Wang Lun said with a smile: "I heard from Ah Wu that you have been away from Shaohua Mountain for some time, but why did you only arrive in Weizhou today?"

Shi Jin was about to reply when he suddenly heard the sound of the stairs outside the private room. The waiter led another person upstairs. The steps of the person going upstairs were extremely steady and powerful. When he went up the stairs, he felt like he was taking a thousand steps, which shook the whole building. They were all trembling slightly.

Wang Lun, Shi Jin and others secretly praised this person for his profound skills, but they heard the waiter say to the customer: "Lu Tiha, what should I use today?"

Narutisha said: "It's the same as before, let's put on another jar of good wine."

Nalu Tisha's voice was very loud, and the waiter agreed to go. When Wang Lun heard that the waiter called the customer Lu Tisha, he couldn't help blurting out: "Lu Tisha, could it be that Lu Zhishen has arrived!"

Zhu Wu asked curiously: "Brother, do you know this person?"

"I've heard about it." Wang Lun knew that he had let it slip, so he responded casually: "He is a hero who is upright and upright. Don't miss this kind of hero. If you must meet him, please follow me and invite him in."

Wang Lun has read Water Margin countless times. When it comes to the characters in this book, the one he likes the most is Wu Song, the one he sympathizes with the most is Lin Chong, and the one he pities the most is Yang Zhi. But the one he admires the most is this one. Rudalu, who can be said to be the most impatient and righteous person, has deep wisdom.

Wang Lun stood up first and walked out. Zhu Wu and Shi Jin also stood up and followed him out. Wang Lun and the other three came outside the private room, but saw a person standing sideways by the window without taking a seat.

I saw that this man looked like an officer, with a sesame turban on his head and two gold rings of Taiyuan New Zealand silk on the back of his head. He wore a parrot green silk war robe, a civil and military double-stranded crow-green sash around his waist, and Wear a pair of eagle claw leather four-seam dry yellow boots.

He has a round face and big ears, a straight nose and a square mouth, a fluffy beard on his cheeks, broad shoulders and a thick back, and a waist that is ten inches wide. He is almost two meters tall, although he is not as tall as Du Qian and Song Wan. But his figure is twice as big.

Wang Lun secretly cheered in his heart, what a majestic Luda and Lu Zhishen. Of course, at this time, Luda did not have the Buddhist title of Zhishen.

Wang Lun immediately stepped forward, clasped his fists and saluted, "May I ask if this official is Rudarutika?"

Luda turned around and returned the greeting: "It's the Sa family. I wonder how many of them have famous names?"

Wang Lun said: "I'm Wang Lun."

Luda was stunned. Although he didn't know who Wang Lun was, seeing that Wang Lun had an extraordinary temperament, he must be no ordinary person, so he paid his respects and said, "I wonder why this eldest brother is looking for the Sa family?"
