Across the Water Margin: Officials of Ximen

The young people from the three villages who followed Hu Sanniang up the mountain looked dumbfounded at the mountains of property and food piled up on the ground.Thinking of Hu Sanniang's promise to them that everyone has a reward, they all suddenly became happy again, and they were so happy that they couldn't close their mouths from ear to ear.

Ximenqing, Shi Wengong, Hu Sanniang, and Jiao Ting saw so much money, food, weapons, and horses, and they also sat next to them and discussed how to deal with these supplies and the captured thieves in Dry Tree Mountain.

After a brief discussion, Ximen Qing and the others made a preliminary plan.

The more than 200 good horses and the captured weapons in this cottage belonged to Ximen Qing, Hu Sanniang and Jiao Ting, and they took them back to Yanggu County.

[-]% of the food in the cottage will be given to the local government, and the rest will be given to the three villages who contributed this time.

[-]% of the money in the cottage is also reserved for the local government that should be in charge, and another [-]% is given to the three villages, and the young and middle-aged people who come up to the mountain are heavily rewarded.For the remaining [-]%, Ximen Qing and Shi Wengong added [-]% each, and each took [-]%.

Shi Wengong originally proposed to share the remaining [-]% with Ximen Qing, Hu Sanniang and Jiao Ting, but Ximenqing insisted that Hu Sanniang and Jiao Ting belonged to his family and only took [-]%.Besides, the horses and weapons in the cottage belonged to him, so Shi Wengong should get the [-]% of the property.Seeing that Ximen Qing had made up his mind, Shi Wengong couldn't refuse, so he accepted Ximen Qing's distribution plan.

After the discussion, Ximenqing and others divided the money and food, put them on horseback, and led the team down the mountain in a mighty way.Before leaving, everyone naturally did not forget to set a big fire in this cottage, and burn this gloomy and sinful Dead Tree Mountain cottage.

The fire in the cottage burned more and more vigorously, and thick smoke rose into the sky.At the foot of Kushu Mountain, villagers in many villages saw the fire and smoke on the mountain.They gathered together in twos and threes to discuss quietly, could it be that the demon king on the dead tree mountain did a lot of evil, and the divine fire fell from the sky, burning the demon king and his subordinates to death?

The villagers of Liujiazhuang also saw the fire on the mountain, but they ran around excitedly telling each other that it must be the benefactors who defeated the robbers on the mountain and burned the vicious den of thieves!This is really a happy event. The only hope is that there will not be too many casualties for the young people who followed in the village.

After the people in Liujiazhuang waited for about an hour in joy and apprehension, they saw Ximen Qing and others returning victoriously with a team of hundreds of people from a distance.

"Coax~" All of a sudden, Liu Family Manor was like a pot exploded, shouting for parents and children, the noise kept going, and it didn't take long for all the people and dogs to come out together.When it was discovered that all the young people in the village who had followed Hu Sanniang up the mountain had returned safely, cheers erupted at the entrance of the village.

After Ximenqing and others returned to Liujiazhuang, they gathered the robbers from Kushushan in a field to guard them, and unloaded mountains of grain and property from their horses.

Hu Sanniang first rewarded those who participated in the extermination of bandits in the three villages, and made them very grateful.There were more than [-] young and lonely young people who immediately expressed that they would follow Hu Sanniang, Ximen Qing and others, and work hard for Hu Sanniang in the future.

After rewarding the team that went up the mountain, Ximenqing distributed the food to the three villages.Except for those in Liujiazhuang who were distributed to every household on the spot, those in the other two villages were brought back to the village by young people in their villages.

The food in the cottage on the Dead Tree Mountain was not only robbed from these three villages, but robbed many villages and accumulated over time.Therefore, the food that Ximenqing distributes to the three villages now is far more than the food they were robbed in the past.

This time, the people in the three villages were overjoyed, and they praised Ximen Qing and the others as living bodhisattvas who saved suffering.

Chapter 145 The Old Grandfather's Enlightenment

Under the management of Ximen Qing and Shi Wengong, the money and food in the three villages were quickly distributed.All the people in the three villages were very happy. After thanking Ximen Qing and the others, they returned with a full load of carts on their shoulders.

Ximenqing originally planned to hand over the thieves on Dry Tree Mountain to the local Lizheng before leaving Liujiazhuang the next day, and let Lizheng go to the county to report to the officials to receive credit.Ximenqing's idea is for the government to deal with the group of thieves in Kushushan, and to punish the "god of mourning" Bao Xuming as a warning to everyone else.

So in order to make the people in the government willing to do their best to handle this matter well, Ximenqing prepared [-]% of the money and food for them, so that they could also benefit from it.Unexpectedly, something happened that night.

The villagers can't control their mouths, and they are always willing to gossip with others.When Ximen Qing and his party escorted hundreds of thieves from Kushu Mountain down the mountain, the villagers who knew about it quietly ran to tell the news.

In less than an hour, the villagers in the surrounding villages all knew about it.At sunset, thousands of villagers from various villages gathered outside Liujiazhuang.

Among these villagers, a few respected old grandpas were selected to visit Ximen Qing and the others, and expressed their gratitude to Ximen Qing and the others.

Unable to withstand the enthusiastic cross-examination by the old grandpas and the elders in Liujiazhuang, Ximen Qing and Shi Wengong had no choice but to reveal their backgrounds.

As a result, the name of Ximenqing Daguan in Yanggu County resounded throughout the Kushushan area of ​​Guanzhou.Ximen Qing didn't expect what his reputation here would bring him many years later.

After expressing their gratitude and admiration to the four heroes, the old grandpas asked to meet the notorious bandit leader, Bao Xu, the "God of Sorrow".

When Ximenqing asked the princes what they wanted to do when they saw the "sorrowful door god" Bao Xu, the old princes all said that they had only heard the name of this villain, but had never seen him, and wanted to see in person whether the villain had a green face and fangs. Such as evil spirits.

Some old grandpas said that they would spit on Bao Xu's face, denounced him, and made him repent.

There are also old grandpas who say that they eat fast and recite Buddhism all the year round, and they are quite accomplished in Buddhism. They want to tell the truth of "put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately" to the "Sangmen God" Bao Xu and his subordinates, and give them advice. Probation.

……

Ximen Qing and Shi Wengong had nothing to do with these enthusiastic old grandpas, they could only let them meet the thieves on the dead tree mountain.

The four of Ximen Qing accompanied the old princes to the place where Bao Xu and others were being held.Thousands of villagers spontaneously followed behind the old grandpas.

With the help of the lit bonfire, several old grandpas carefully identified and recognized Bao Xu, the "god of mourning" who had been tied up with five flowers, they all jumped on their feet and cursed loudly, as if they had regained their youthful vitality.

Old Mrs. Chen went up first, cursing angrily: "Evil thief, you have today? You snatched my food, why didn't you eat you to death?"

After saying this, Mrs. Chen cleared her throat and spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm on Bao Xu.

There was only a sound of "Wow~", and Bao Xu, the "Sangmen God", was drenched head and face, and his whole body gave off a foul smell.

This Mrs. Chen's stunt is too powerful!A casual sip of thick phlegm can achieve such a fantasy effect, it really is a master among the people!It's just that the smell is too strong, the old man hasn't rinsed his mouth for decades?

Ximen Qing, who was standing by the side, took a closer look, only to find that a young young man was following Mrs. Chen, holding a wooden bucket in one hand and a wooden ladle in the other.It should be that young man who poured Bao Xu a ladle of mysterious liquid just now.

Ximen Qing came to his senses, the farmer must be referring to the dung bucket!He hastily stretched out his hand to pull Hu Sanniang, wanting to back away a bit.However, Ximen Qing did not pull Hu Sanniang by his side.

Ximen Qing looked back, and saw that Hu Sanniang had already retreated far away, covering her mouth and nose with her hands, and looking at Ximen Qing proudly.

At this time, Jiao Ting and Shi Wengong also retreated to the distance, leaving Bao Xu covered in dirt to the villagers.

Seeing this, Ximen Qing hurriedly retreated to Hu Sanniang's side.She sighed in her heart: "It's still Hu Sanniang who knows the temperament of these villagers. The lady of Dulonggang Hujiazhuang is not for nothing!"

How had Bao Xu, the "god of mourning", ever suffered such humiliation? These mud-legged ants in his eyes dared to throw stones at this time, which made him furious.He threatened old Mr. Chen without changing his bad habits: "Old dog! I swear I will kill you! I will kill you all... vomit~"

Before Bao Xu finished speaking, the young man next to Mrs. Chen had scooped up another scoop of fresh dirt from the bucket, and was splashing it on Bao Xu's open mouth!

This young man must be a good farmer who grows vegetables, and he is really good at splashing manure.The villagers who watched the excitement behind him cheered continuously, and they all admired him greatly.

The young man smiled shyly at everyone, and said, "I don't have anyone else, I'm familiar with you~"

Bao Xu kept coughing in embarrassment, but Mrs. Chen asked loudly, "What are you talking about? I can't hear you! What? You said you are full? You robber has such a small belly, so how can you What are you going to do with so much food from me?"

The old Mrs. Chen vented the anger in her chest, and retreated to the side with the support of the young man.

At this time, the old man Zhou, who was about to cross people with profound Buddhist teachings, trembled, staggered forward with a cane, looked Bao Xu up and down, and said three times in his mouth, "Amitabha, so kind~ "

After chanting the Buddha's name, the benevolent and kind-hearted Zhou Taigong suddenly changed his face into a glaring Vajra.He asked Bao Xuli, "Dog thief, do you still remember killing more than [-] people in Zhoujiazhuang last year? I want you to pay with blood today!"

Taigong Zhou picked up his crutches and hit Bao Xu on the head bitterly. With a "bang", Bao Xu's head was bleeding.

Ximen Qing and Shi Wengong looked at each other, they didn't step forward to take care of that Grandpa Zhou, instead they took a few steps back.

Following Zhou Taigong's three juniors, shouting "revenge", rushed forward, and beat Bao Xu's skin to pieces with sticks and sticks.

Then Bao Xu still didn't change his brutal and perverted nature, and still cursed Zhou Taigong and the others vaguely.

Seeing that the people from Zhoujiazhuang were beating heartily, the villagers around outside were not happy, and shouted together: "People from Zhoujiazhuang, step back, we have revenge to avenge!"

Old Mrs. Zhou stopped the three juniors, and cursed: "It's cheap, you bastard! Old man, I'll wait to see how you go to hell!"

After finishing speaking, Zhou Taigong withdrew with three younger students.

"You dog thief, pay back my son's life!"

"You villain still has today! Give back my husband's life!"
