The election results for the position of general leader were originally scheduled to be announced in public three days later, on July 18th, but on July 17th, Blood Sea King Hong Feng suddenly died suddenly, and his body was found on the back mountain of Mangdang Mountain. He was found in the woods. After examining his injuries, it was determined that he had been killed by a martial arts master who used heavy techniques to shatter the heavenly spirit.
Hong Feng died suddenly, and unexpected changes occurred. The North Road Green Forest, which had the best hope of winning the alliance leader, suddenly lost the chance. And when Hong Feng died, the East and South Road Green Forests were the most benefited.
Therefore, the brothers from Lulin on the North Road suspected that the people from Lulin on the East and South Roads had killed Hong Feng, especially Chao Gai, who was the most suspected, because the only one recognized in the entire alliance who could defeat Hong Feng in martial arts was Chao Gai is alone.
The people from Beilu Lulin found Meng Xiongwei, the old alliance leader, and asked Meng Xiongwei to uphold justice for Beilu Lulin and severely punish the murderer. When Meng Xiongwei heard the news of Hong Feng's death, he was extremely angry and vowed to find out the murderer of Hong Feng and bring justice to his old brother. revenge.
It's just that although Hong Feng is dead, the matter of electing the general leader has to be done. Now that Hong Feng is dead, no one in the North Road Green Forest has a martial arts prestige comparable to Chao Gai and Meng Chi, so in fact the North Road Green Forest has lost the competition. Only Chao Gai and Meng Chi are qualified for the position of general leader.
At this time, Chao Gai and Meng Chi each had a large number of supporters, and they were at loggerheads with each other. While Lulin on the West Road did not compete for the position of overall leader, he did not support either side and decided to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers. At this time, Lulin on the North Road Attitude becomes extremely important. Since he suspected that Hong Feng's death was related to Chao Gai, Beilu Lulin naturally no longer trusted Chao Gai, so Beilu Lulin eventually turned to Meng Chi's side.
Meng Chi received the support of Beilu Lulin and was very satisfied, thinking that the position of leader of the general alliance was already within his grasp. However, on July 18, when he was about to announce the candidate for leader of the general alliance, Chao Gai suddenly pointed out that Meng Chi Chi betrayed the country and surrendered to the traitor, and surrendered to the rebel traitor Fang La.
Chao Gai even said that Meng Chi led South Road Green Forest and followed Fang La to raid the Zhuge Mansion in the south of the Yangtze River on the eighth day of the fifth lunar month, and cooperated with Fang La to annihilate the martial arts in the south of the Yangtze River and murder the Jianghu comrades.
As soon as Chao Gai said this, the Green Forest brothers present immediately burst into an uproar. Although the people in the Green Forest often opposed the government and sometimes assassinated corrupt officials, they hated traitors and seek glory the most. Traitors and rebels were the greatest traitors in the Green Forest. avoid.
Chao Gai also asked Tian Hu to testify. Tian Hu was in Jiangnan at the time and had personal experience. He did not hide it at the time and told the truth.
When Tian Hu came out to testify in person, everyone in Lulin knew that what Chao Gai said was true, and they immediately switched sides and stopped supporting Meng Chi. Lulin on the North Road also immediately turned to support Chao Gai, and Meng Xiongwei was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot.
Meng Chi did not expect that Chao Gai would find out so soon that he cooperated with Fang La to raid Jiangnan Wulin, and there was an additional witness named Tian Hu. Seeing that there was no hope of competing for the position of the leader of the alliance, Meng Chi couldn't help but become angry and immediately led his troops to rebel against the Green Forest Alliance. He took the entire South Road Green Forest to vote for Fang La.
Meng Chi rebelled against the country and turned into a traitor. The old alliance leader Meng Xiongwei became so angry that he vomited blood and eventually died. However, before his death, Meng Xiongwei issued the Green Forest Order, decided to give way to Chao Gai, and ordered the world to fight against the Green Forest. Fang La, killed the traitor Meng Chi.
Chao Gai sat on the throne as the leader of the Green Forest Alliance as he wished, but at this time the Green Forest Alliance had actually fallen apart. The South Road Green Forest rebelled against the alliance and surrendered to the enemy, while the West Road Green Forest always listened to the instructions but not the propaganda. After Chao Gai became the leader of the Green Forest Alliance, Tian Hu just After a few words of congratulations, he led everyone away.
Although everyone in North Road Green Forest also surrendered to Chao Gai on the surface, they secretly still suspected that Hong Feng's death was closely related to Chao Gai. They left without saying goodbye on the second day of the meeting and returned to North Road Green Forest. The only Green Forest forces under their control are East Road Green Forest and Green Forest Headquarters.
Wang Lun knew that Chao Gai was now the general leader of the Green Forest Alliance in the world. Although his strength was somewhat reduced, the Green Forest Alliance was one of the eight martial arts sects in the world. After all, Chao Gai was still the leader of the party and could not be rude.
At that moment, Wang Lun led the leaders of Liangshan to welcome him out of the Juyi Hall. Zhuge Mingfeng, Xiao Jianfang and others did not dare to neglect and came out to welcome him.
As soon as Wang Lun and others came out of the hall, they saw that Chao Gai had led more than a hundred people to the school grounds in front of the hall. Zhu Wu on the side took the congratulatory sticker he had just received and read loudly: "Chao Gai, the leader of the Green Forest League, led the All the heroes in the alliance congratulated Master Wang on his wedding.
From Chao Gai, the leader of the general alliance, Wu Yong, the wise military advisor on the left, Yunlong Gongsun Sheng, the right military advisor, Huo Yanluo, Ruan Xiaoer, the short-lived Erlang, Ruan Xiaoqi, Lidi Taisui, Ruan Xiaoqi, the red-haired ghost Liu Tang, Mang The demon king Fan Rui who stayed behind in Dangshan, the flying great sage Li Gun, the eight-armed Nezha Xiang Chong, the masters of Yinmachuan village Jinbaozi Yang Lin and golden leopard Tanglong, the masters of dry tree village mourned the door god Bao Xu and the faceless Jiao Ting, representing the green forests of the world. Together we wish Mr. Wang and his wife a hundred years of happy marriage and everlasting unity. "
As soon as Zhu Wu finished speaking, Chao Gai and others had arrived in front of the hall. They saw that Chao Gai was extremely tall and burly, with a beard on his face, a rough appearance, and formidable power.
Wang Lun quickly walked down the steps and came to Chao Gai. He cupped his fists and saluted, saying, "I have heard about the name of Chao Zongli leader Touta Heavenly King for a long time. Now that I can see him today, I have admired him for a long time."
Chao Gai also clasped his fists and returned the salute: "I have heard in the world that Lord Wang is young and promising, with both civil and military skills. When I saw him today, it turned out to be true. I am very lucky."
After Chao Gai said that, both of them laughed, and Chao Gai said again: "Master Wang is very happy today and has prepared some small gifts for my brother. It's not respectful, but I hope Master Wang will accept it."
Chao Gai waved his hand, and someone immediately carried more than a dozen large boxes up. Seeing that the boxes were very heavy, they must be valuable items of gold, silver, jewelry, and Wang Lun quickly thanked them and ordered people to take them and carry them down.
Wang Lun respectfully invited Chao Gai and others into the hall. Chao Gai strode forward, followed by Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng. Wu Yong smiled and saluted Wang Lun and said congratulations, but Gongsun Sheng winked at Wang Lun and raised his hand. Holding the whisk, he staggered into the hall.
Wang Lun once met Gongsun Sheng at the Yellow River ferry. At that time, Gongsun Sheng seemed to see Wang Lun's secret at a glance, which surprised Wang Lun. However, he never saw him again, and he didn't know who Gongsun Sheng was. At that time, he actually joined the Green Forest League and became Chao Gai's subordinate.
After Gongsun Sheng were the three Ruan brothers. When Wang Lun came down from the mountain last year, he met the Ruan brothers in Shijie Village. At that time, the three Ruan brothers said they would never join the Green Forest League, but when they met, the three of them He has joined the Green Forest Alliance and has become the leader of the Green Forest Alliance.
But Wang Lun didn't find it strange. He wanted to use Wu Yong's sharp tongue to persuade the Ruan brothers to join the alliance. Now that it was not the opportunity to speak, Wang Lun gave in, and the three Ruan brothers did not. His face remained as usual, he returned the courtesy with his fists clasped and went into the hall.
Then there were more than a hundred green forest heroes, including many famous characters in the Water Margin. When they met, they were all extraordinary. Wang Lun greeted them one by one and let them into the hall.
Chao Gai also greeted Zhuge Mingfeng, Xiao Jianfang and other guests who came to congratulate him. Tian Hu also stepped forward to salute Chao Gai. When Chao Gai saw Tian Hu, he was very affectionate and took Tian Hu's hand. My brother gave a short greeting.
Wang Ying, Yan Shun, and Zheng Tianshou rushed to Chao Gai, and Wang Ying smiled and said: "When did Brother Chao become the general leader, and when did he return to Shandong? I didn't even tell my brother."
Chao Gai laughed and said: "The General Alliance has a lot to do. I just returned to Shandong recently. If I have free time in the future, we brothers will have a good drink."
Wang Ying added: "Today is my brother's wedding. I arrived a few days early and haven't greeted the general leader yet. Isn't the general leader angry?"
Chao Gai laughed and said, "My brother is getting married. It's a big event in the family. As a brother, you should naturally arrive early. It's not too late for me to congratulate you, so how can you be angry?"
Wang Lun came over and walked side by side with Chao Gai, and introduced Zhou Tong to Chao Gai. When Chao Gai saw that it was Zhou Tong here, he quickly stepped forward and saluted. Although Chao Gai was now the general leader of the Green Forest League, in terms of status, He is the head of the eight martial arts sects with Zhou Tong, so he can be on equal terms with Zhou Tong.
But after all, Zhou Tong is a senior in the martial arts world, and his prestige and reputation in the world are unparalleled. Therefore, Chao Gai still treated Zhou Tong with courtesy and sincerity, and Zhou Tong returned the courtesy as an equal.
Everyone chatted in the hall for a while. It was too early for the celebration, so Chao Gai proposed to visit Liangshan. Wang Lun agreed, and immediately accompanied Chao Gai for a walk around Liangshan. Everyone in Liangshan and Green Forest The leader followed him from afar.
Chao Gai followed Wang Lun to watch the scenery of Liangshan Mountain, admiring it all the way, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Liangshan Mountain to be so powerful. How come I didn't discover this place so long ago."
After Chao Gai said this, he and Wang Lun looked at each other and smiled. When they climbed to the Wentian Pavilion, the highest point of Liangshan, the two stood in the Wentian Pavilion, with a panoramic view of Liangshan. Chao Gai looked at the situation in Liangshan and pondered for a moment. He said so with his eyebrows furrowed, looking very sad.
At this time, there were only Chao Gai and Wang Lun in the Wentian Pavilion, and everyone else was standing far outside the pavilion. Wang Lun knew that Chao Gai must have something to say, so he didn't say anything at the moment, and just stayed with them quietly.
Chao Gai looked into the distance, but murmured softly: "Rivers and mountains, rivers and mountains!"
After a long while, Chao Gai took a long breath and finally said: "Brother Boren, what do you think of the current world situation?"
Wang Lun said: "I would like to hear Brother Chao's advice."
Chao Gai pondered for a moment and then said: "Brother Boren, although you and I are meeting for the first time today, we feel like old friends at first sight. I have a few words from my heart that I want to say to you."
Wang Lun said: "Brother, please speak."
Chao Gai sighed: "Recently, the Song Dynasty united with the Jin Dynasty to destroy the Liao Dynasty and won a great victory. They took back the two states of Youyan, which can be regarded as a national humiliation for a century. The results in the west were also extraordinary. They expanded the territory thousands of miles. Everyone said that it was unprecedented since the founding of the Song Dynasty." Due to his achievements, people in today's world only know that there is peace and peace in the world.
The Daojun Emperor in Bianliang City, Tokyo, was even touted as a prosperous Mingjun, an emperor throughout the ages. Everyone praised his virtues, and there was no end to them. However, how many people knew that behind this prosperous age of singing and dancing, there was something that had long been buried. A catastrophic disaster. "
