Everyone was waiting according to Dr. An's words, but they didn't know what they were waiting for. They couldn't help but wonder. Sure enough, it didn't take long for Mu Chun to become restless and unable to bear it. He wanted to get angry several times, but was stopped by Li Jun. I suppressed it, and when I was feeling depressed, I heard someone shout loudly: "Where is my benefactor, where is my benefactor?"
Wang Lun looked for the sound and saw a man driving a carriage. The driver was a big man in brocade. There was an old man sitting in the carriage. The old man was skinny and extremely weak. There were several numbers hanging on the railings beside the carriage. It was a white thing that was more than one meter long and looked like intestines. It looked very disgusting and I didn’t know what it was.
The big man jumped out of the car. His appearance was very similar to Mu Chun's, but he was taller and burlier. The big man came straight to Doctor An, knelt down on the ground, and knelt down: "Thank you, Doctor An, for saving my father. Please pay your respects to Mu Hong."
The old man also saluted in the car, and when Mu Chun saw the old man, he quickly ran to the car and asked overjoyed: "Dad, are you okay?"
The old man replied: "It's okay, it's okay, everything is fine. Why don't you thank Dr. An for me quickly!"
Mu Chun agreed and immediately ran to Dr. An. He also knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Thank you so much, Dr. An, for saving my father. I was reckless just now and offended the doctor. Please punish me."
Doctor An ignored the Mu brothers and went straight to the car. He stretched out his hand to check the pulse of the old man, Mu Taigong, the father of the Mu brothers. Li Jun also helped the Mu brothers up.
Doctor An checked Taigong Mu's pulse, nodded and said, "The bugs have been eliminated. I will prescribe you some medicine to regulate your body. You will be cured after a few months of recovery."
Mu Taigong expressed his gratitude: "The old man has been suffering from this disease since last year, and his body has been getting weaker and weaker. He has been bedridden half a year ago. Recently, he has become even more confused and sleepy every day. He just thinks that he is dying."
Who would have thought that God would be so pitiful that he would expect the doctor An Shenguang to come to our village and cure the old man's disease with a dose of decoction. Such a great kindness and kindness, the old man really has no way to repay! "
After Mu Taigong said this, he bowed to Dr. An in the car. Doctor An quickly stretched out his hand to help Taigong Mu up, and said: "Old man Mu, you can't do this. It is the duty of doctors of our generation to treat illnesses and save people, so there is no need to say thank you."
While he was talking, a fast horse galloped over. The man on the horse shouted loudly: "Brother, don't misunderstand Dr. An, my illness is cured!"
The man on the horse seemed to be very weak, and seemed out of breath when he shouted. When he came to the crowd, he rolled off the saddle and dismounted, but his walking was very unsteady and stumbled. Li Jun quickly stepped forward to support him, and said with great concern: "Brother, are you okay?"
Tong Wei and Tong Meng also asked: "Second brother, are you okay?"
Wang Lun knew at a glance that this person must be Li Li, but from the tone of Li Jun and others' words, it seemed that Li Li was Li Jun's biological brother, which was different from the one in Water Margin.
"Everything is fine, thanks to Dr. An." Although Li Li was very weak, his face was full of joy, and he said: "Brother, Dr. Anshen heals diseases and saves people, and is dedicated to helping the world. We must not accidentally hurt a good person."
"Don't worry, brother." Li Jun nodded, and after saying that, he pulled Li Li to Doctor An. They both knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to Doctor An.
Doctor An did not say anything, but stretched out two fingers to place on Li Lizi's pulse. He smiled slightly and said, "You are in good health. You will be fine after half a month of rest."
At this time, when the surrounding villagers saw that Taigong Mu and Li Li had been cured of their illnesses, they dispersed and ran to their homes. Only Wang Lun, the disciples of the Qilin Sect, and the Li and Mu families were left on the street. Brothers and that doctor An.
Seeing that Wang Lun was empty, he stepped forward to salute with clasped fists and announced his home. Although Li Jun, Mu Hong, Li Li, Mu Chun, Tong Wei, Tong Meng and others did not know who Wang Lun was, they saw that Wang Lun had an extraordinary temperament. It was brothers Zhang Shun and Zhang Heng who introduced him, so they all returned the favor with clasped fists and long-lasting greetings.
When the Qilin Sect disciples saw that Wang Lun had arrived, they were very affectionate. They all came over, saluted Wang Lun, and even called him senior brother.
Although Wang Lun was not an official disciple of Zhou Tong, his relationship with Zhou Tong was better than that of master and apprentice. Everyone in the Qilin Sect knew it, so all the disciples in the Qilin Sect except Lu Junyi, Shi Wengong, and Lin Chong Wang Lun was called by the cousin name Boren, and Yue Fei called Wang Lun his cousin, while the other disciples all respectfully called Wang Lun their senior brother.
When Li Jun and others, as well as Dr. An, saw that the Qilin Sect disciple actually called Wang Lun his senior brother, their eyes lit up and they immediately looked at Wang Lun with admiration.
Wang Lun introduced Xiao Wu, Ping'er, Xiaohu, Zhao Yun, Ou Peng, Xiao Rang, Jin Dajian, Hou Jian, and Xiu Yong one by one. Everyone bowed to each other, and it was lively for a while.
Li Jun and others, as well as Xiao Rang, were in Jieyang and Jiangzhou. Although they were separated by the Xunyang River, they had long been known to each other. When they met at this time, they felt intimate with each other.
Li Jun and others also reported their families, and Wang Lun's guess was right. They were Li Jun, Mu Hong, Li Li, Mu Chun, Tong Wei, and Tong Meng. Divine Doctor An also reported their names, and it turned out to be An Daoquan.
Mu Hong saw that it was very inconvenient for everyone to stand in the street and chat with each other, so he smiled and said: "Brothers, please take a break and let me stand in the street to drink. If my friends in the world know about it, why don't they say that I am Mu Hong?" I would like to treat you as a distinguished guest. How about I invite you brothers to my little brother’s house for a glass of water and wine, and sit down and talk in detail?”
Everyone laughed and agreed, following Mu Hong back to the village. Mu Chun followed slowly in his carriage.
On the road, everyone talked. Wang Lun told the Qilin Sect disciples that Zhou Tong had something to do and did not come with him, but he would cross the river to meet everyone soon. The disciples had no objection.
Xiao Wu was not interested in what everyone said, but she was very interested in the intestine-like things hanging on Mu Taigong's carriage, so she asked Mu Chun: "Second Brother Mu, what is that hanging on the carriage?" thing?"
Mu Chun didn't know what it was, so he said, "I don't know either."
An Daoquan replied from the side: "Those are bugs knocked out of people's stomachs."
Xiao Wu got closer to take a look at the thing. When she heard that it was an insect, she immediately screamed "Oh my god" in fright and ran away. Everyone laughed when they saw it.
But everyone was secretly wondering, what kind of insect could grow so big and come out of a human body?
After An Daoquan answered Xiao Wu's question, he stopped talking and walked forward unsteadily. Seeing this, everyone didn't feel like asking any more questions, so they chatted among themselves.
Just then, everyone exchanged their names and also reported their nicknames. Comparing Wang Lun with what was said in the Water Margin, it can be said that they are the same. The only exceptions are the dragon in the river, the dragon emerging from the cave, the mirage in the river, etc., very good Understand, as for small blockage or no blockage, it is nothing more than 'average people can't stop it and no one can stop it'.
Only Li Li's nickname of "Judge to Urgent" puzzled Wang Lun. During the journey, Li Li was not only very handsome, but also very gentle and gentle in his speech, without the slightest hint of ferocity. He didn't know why he got such a bad name. Number.
Could it be true, as said in Water Margin, that Li Li was actually a shady shop owner, a drug-mongering man, and a murderous judge who wanted money and life? But it doesn't matter that he came to clear up the misunderstanding even though he was sick, so as not to accidentally hurt a good person. It seems like he was cheating. I really don’t know how he got his nickname.
After everyone had walked less than two miles, a large farmyard appeared behind the forest. It was built on a high hill. The farmyard was surrounded by several rows of smoky green willows. There were hundreds of hectares of fertile fields on the left and healthy seedlings on the right. There are flocks of blue lotus green gannets and ducks, and there are countless cattle and sheep on the grass in front of the village. It is Mujiazhuang that has arrived.
Everyone entered the village and sat down in the hall to drink tea and chat. It was almost noon. Mu Hong ordered people to prepare a banquet and invited Wang Lun and others to the table.
All of them are heroes in the world, all of them are cheerful people, and they all share the same spirit. With the addition of fine wine, they are already talking in the alley, and it is too late to meet each other.
Although most of them have never met each other in the world, they are all accomplished people in their respective fields, so it is inevitable to talk about each other's heroic deeds.
Li Jun and others also told Wang Lun nothing about their life experiences. The four brothers Li Jun, Li Li, Tong Wei, and Tong Meng were all from Luzhou, specializing in the Yangtze River, also known as the Yangtze River. During this period, he worked as a boatman and made a living by punting boats to ferry people. Later, he saw that Jieyangling Mountain was majestic and majestic, so he settled here. However, Li Jun and others were punting boats openly, but secretly they were engaged in the business of selling private salt. .
In the Northern Song Dynasty, both salt and iron were bought and sold by officials, and strict laws prohibited people from selling salt privately. If someone was caught selling salt privately, it would be a death penalty if caught by the government. However, the price of official salt was too high, and ordinary people could not afford it. They couldn't afford it, but if people couldn't eat salt, they would be weak, weak and sick. The people were forced to have no choice but to sell salt secretly, risking beheading in order to survive.
However, selling salt alone is weak and easy to be caught by the government. The common people had no choice but to form gangs to sell salt. Over time, a gang was formed, which is the world-famous Salt Gang, and Li Jun and the four of them were all involved. He is a member of the Salt Gang, and Li Jun is the contemporary leader of the Salt Gang. Li Li and the Tong brothers are also the leaders of the gang.
Among the four, Li Jun is the most talented and has always had great ambitions. Now the Salt Gang is thriving under the management of Li Jun and others. There are many gangs, and the Salt Gang's power is spread throughout the Song Dynasty, even The private salt business has been carried out in the northern countries of Nanyang. Although the strength of the Salt Gang is not as strong as the eight sects such as the Beggar Gang and the Green Forest League, it cannot be underestimated.
Speaking of the Salt Gang, Wang Lun couldn't help but think of brothers Zhang Shun and Zhang Heng. He had a chat with the Zhang brothers on the boat last night and learned the true identities of the Zhang brothers. The Zhang brothers were smuggling fish on the surface, but in fact they were However, his identity is that of the leader of the Xunyang Cao Gang, a gang as old and powerful as the Salt Gang.
This Cao Gang specializes in water-based business. Since ancient times, people and goods have been transported by both water and land. The waterway is far more than the land route in terms of transportation capacity and profits.
Therefore, Cao Gang existed in ancient times, and there are many water systems in the world. Almost every water system has a Cao Gang. And this Cao Gang has many similarities with the Green Forest League. They also formed a Cao Gang alliance, and Zhang The brothers are the leaders of the Xunyang Cao Gang, the strongest among the Cao Gang Alliance.
Everyone knows that there are three hegemons in Xunyang. The first hegemon is the Salt Gang of Li Jun and others, the second is the Cao Gang of the Zhang brothers, and the third hegemon is the Mujiazhuang, which seems to be the most inconspicuous.
Both the Yan Gang and the Cao Gang are large and powerful gangs with large numbers of people. Although the Mujiazhuang occupies a large area and is magnificent, there is nothing special about it. I don’t know how it can compete with the The other two hegemons stand at full strength.
Brothers Mu Hong and Mu Chun were very forthright and did not hide their true identities in front of Wang Lun and others.
The Salt Gang made its fortune by selling private salt, and the Cao Gang prospered by transporting private goods. But Mujiazhuang became one of the three hegemons by making money.
