Especially Ruan Xiaoqi, who has the most out-of-the-box temperament and the most straightforward attitude. He directly asked:
"Master Zou is such a hero! He is so spirited! Hearing this makes me so enthusiastic. I wonder if Guizhai has ever occupied that precious place? He also taught the poor people in this world to have more hope! There are many ways to survive!"
Seeing the eagerness in the eyes of this living Yama, Zou Run was overjoyed and responded: "What the seventh brother said is true. Although I have had this intention for a long time, it is a pity that I have been hindered by several things and have not been able to go to the island. ." When he said this, Zou Run looked sad and sighed.
After finishing speaking, he picked up the remaining wine on the table and drank it all in one gulp. His words were full of melancholy.
Ruan Xiaoer and Ruan Xiaowu were also fascinated by what they heard, so they hurriedly asked: "I don't know what happened that hindered the village leader's ambition?"
"There is no other one. The first one is controlled by the money and food of the people, and the second one is controlled by the ships and boatmen. However, Zou has some concerns about these two items. It only takes a little time to complete them. Only the third one should be Zou's poor virtue. I still have no clue..."
Seeing Zou Run hesitating about entering the alley, the three of them were anxious and scratched their heads. They couldn't help but ask in unison, "I wonder what the trouble is with these three? We brothers are willing to hear the details!"
After Zou Run's previous foreshadowing and interpretation, the curiosity of the three Ruan brothers has been aroused for a long time. Even the most stable Ruan Xiaoer forgot at this time that they and Zou Run only met for the first time, but the topic of discussion was Top secrets that can only be discussed privately between acquaintances.
"The third one... is difficult to say, but easy to say. But it is because there are many pirates and soldiers along the way to the island. Although Zou has some water skills, he has no choice but to do it. Although there are three leaders under his command , there are seven or eight hundred men, but most of them are heroes on land. When these people get on the ship, they are like the tiger entering the sea, and most of their fighting strength is reduced!"
"In the final analysis, Zou's command only lacks a few navy leaders who can ride the wind and waves on the endless sea and defeat the enemy! Therefore, as the New Year is approaching, I have traveled thousands of miles to find three sea dragons in Liangshan Mountain! "
After finishing speaking, Zou Run no longer concealed his inner intentions and cast his hot gaze on the three of them. He stood up and solemnly clasped his fists towards the three of them.
"Zou told the three of them that he came thousands of miles from Dengzhou to invite three heroes to join him. But what Zou Run said was not false. If the three of them don't mind that Dengyun Village is small, Xiao Ke would like to ask the three of you to come up to the mountain and each take a top position. I’m so lucky to have Zou Run like this! I’m so lucky to have such a copycat village!”
After hearing this, Ruan Xiaowu said: "Come on, come on!" He shouted: "Brother Qi, what can I tell you?" Ruan Xiaoqi jumped up and said: "The hope I had in this life has been fulfilled today!"
When his mind was swaying, Ruan Xiaoqi ignored all etiquette and took off his upper body clothes in the winter, revealing his strong body made of iron and copper. He stepped on the stool with one foot and patted his chest loudly.
"Thanks to Master Zou for being such a heroic figure, I, Ruan Xiaoqi, don't dare to boast, but for my water skills, no one has ever looked down upon me! Today I am willing to surrender to the leader of the village, and go back to water, water, and fire." Go. Even if you can only use it for one day, you can die with your eyes open!"
The Ruan family, three brothers and one mother, have always been in the same spirit, but Ruan Xiaoqi took the lead. Ruan Xiaoqi and Ruan Xiaowu could no longer bear the excitement and stood up one after another, exposing their chests and revealing their fine embroidery.
"My three brothers are really not fake at all. They are so extravagant to cover up their loyalty. We are willing to risk our lives to help!" Speaking of excitement, Ruan Xiaoer and Ruan Xiaowu patted their necks and said. : "This kind of passion only needs to be sold to those who know the goods!"
Zou Run was overjoyed when he heard this. He quickly pulled Ruan Xiaoqi down from the stool, closed the clothes of the three of them, and said in a mixture of joy and anger:
"What the seventh brother said! Today is a happy day. I have three brothers, just like the emperor of the Han Dynasty got Fan Kuai, and the Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty met Qin Qiong. The days ahead are long. We still have to show our ambitions and work together for great things. How can we say such unlucky words? ? Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah!
The enthusiasm faded, and Ruan Xiaoqi scratched his head in embarrassment. He could only follow Zou Run's instructions and puff into the corner. Zou Run then picked up the wine bowl and wanted to celebrate with the three of them.
Unexpectedly, these three people pushed the table away in unison, prostrated themselves in the attic, and claimed to have met the leader of the village. Zou Run said no and hurriedly went to help him, but the three of them insisted that the courtesy should not be broken and bowed three times. Zou Run had no choice but to bite the bullet and accept the gift. After the three of them had finished saluting, everyone sat down again and started filling their glasses and plates.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Zou Run introduced the various situations of Deng Yun Mountain to the three of them. First, he explained that there were three leaders on the mountain, namely Zou Yuan, the dragon from the forest, Yang Lin, the golden leopard, and Deng, the fire-eyed Suanni. fly. Let's talk about the current development momentum of the cottage. Currently, there is one cottage, one island, four large ships, and a total of six to seven hundred people.
However, these were the figures when Zou Run came down from the mountain. Before he came down, he had ordered the village to put up a recruiting flag and accept all men, women, old and young. Anyway, the village currently has enough money and food, and it has a stable source of income from the salt drying field. Thousands more people can be recruited. No problem at all. Among them, the young ones can work as minions, the craftsmen can open workshops, and the others can be placed on the island, where they can farm and dry the salt.
However, when explaining the seats for the three of them, Zou Run paused and said:
"I should have made reservations for my three brothers today, because Zou wants to invite a good man to the mountain. Although he has not found this person yet, it is difficult to make a reservation in advance now. I hope my brothers will forgive me."
Ruan Xiaoqi became interested when he heard this. He actually didn't care about his seat. Instead, he asked who the hero was.
"Oh? I wonder what kind of hero the village leader is talking about? Could it be that he has found another dragon for the navy in our village?"
Seeing Ruan Xiaoqi not actually going up the mountain, he opened his mouth "We are a village" and closed his mouth "We are a navy". Zou Run felt happy. He stood up and poured a bowl of wine for Ruan Xiaoqi and explained:
"Seventh brother guessed wrong. Although this man is not a water dragon, he is a land tiger. Not only is he proficient in eighteen weapons, he can mount a horse to fight, and dismount a horse to fight on foot. He is also familiar with military affairs and military training methods. He is very good. Rarely seen in the world!”
"Oh?? Who deserves such praise from the village master?" Seeing Zou Run's praise, everyone became interested and asked eagerly.
"This man is the instructor of the 800,000 Forbidden Army, nicknamed Leopard Head Lin Chong!"
"It turns out that the leader of the village was talking about this good man. I've heard people talk about it many times. I just heard that this man recently killed several birdmen in Cangzhou and set fire to the army's fodder yard. The government went everywhere to arrest this man. I heard According to the village owner, has this person reached the boundary of my land in Liangshan?"
Ruan Xiaowu reacted very quickly. As soon as Zou Run started talking, he figured out a few hints of his meaning. When Zou Run nodded in affirmation, he thought for a while and said:
"I think the only person who can give him a place in the realm of Liangshan is Wang Lun... Sigh... This man is confused. That white-robed scholar Wang Lun is famous for being intolerant and stingy. He is also stingy. We are neighbors with him on weekdays and feel ashamed of ourselves. How could Lin Chongqing, such a good man, fall into his hands?"
