Chapter 339: Old Friends Meet
When Zhang Yong heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his face bloomed with a smile, and he thanked him endlessly. It turned out that Zhang Yong was poor since he was a child, and his parents sold him as a slave in order to make a living, but later Zhang Yong successfully escaped with a little cleverness.
But when Zhang Yong returned home with a stomach full of resentment, he wanted to ask his parents why they were so ruthless to sell him to others. Zhang Yong found that his parents had died of starvation at home, and there was a baby who was born less than a few months old. Later, Zhang Yong secretly inquired and learned that his mother was pregnant at that time, and the family was really at the end of the mountain, and his parents saw that he was smart since he was a child, and even if he became a slave in a rich and noble family, he would not starve to death, so he was so ruthless. After Zhang Yong knew about this, his personality changed greatly, and he began to wander around, cheating and drinking, and he attached great importance to money, and he was also very greedy for money, or the shadow of his childhood, which made him feel that only when he had a full pocket could he live a solid life.
After a while, Zhang Yong followed the two small leaders out of the Juyi Hall and went to receive the fine soft and the bounty. Cao Cheng and the leaders discussed for a while, and then ordered everyone to retreat. After a while, only Cao Cheng and Yao Gang were left in the hall.
"King, this one is too greedy for money and is not credible." Yao Gang bowed his hand and said with a cold face.
Cao Cheng listened, but he smiled and replied: "How can I not see what this person's temperament is." That's why I believe him. Because I can give him the gold he wants, but Yue Fei can't do it! Sometimes, villains can be more loyal than righteous gentlemen! Moreover, I have ordered someone to contact Liang Chao and the old fox, the two-line jihua, if he doesn't succeed, I will also have a follow-up. ”
When Yao Gang heard this, he understood, arched his hand, and sighed: "It's still the king who is powerful, it seems that the villain doesn't have to worry too much." ”
It is said that Zhang Yong packed up his bags that night, first put away his ten taels of gold, and then packed the hundred taels of gold in a wooden box, and then wrapped it in a piece of cloth.
"Lord Zhang, it's not long overdue to leave." Suddenly, outside Zhang Yong's house, there was a sound of urging. Zhang wiped his nose and shouted in a loud voice: "Don't rush! Urging Lao Tzu to have three urgencies, they all want to go to the thatched house! ”
The little boss outside heard it and was about to answer, when suddenly the door opened, and Zhang said anxiously with a look of being about to hold back: "Brothers, wait for the meeting, I'll go to the thatched house and come back!" ”
After that, Zhang Yong didn't wait for the little leader to answer, and ran away like oil on the soles of his feet. The little boss and the two bandits next to him each gave a look, just now Cao Chengke specially instructed them to supervise Zhang Yong, and if they could, they would not leave an inch. The little leader didn't dare to disobey Cao Cheng's order, so he hurriedly took the two bandits to follow, and after a while, he came to attack the northeast area of the back mountain where the thatched house was located. It is said that the bandits built nearly dozens of thatched huts in this area, which were connected in a row for the convenience of the brothers in the mountains. Thinking about it, there are nearly 20,000 bandits living in the cottage, all of which are convenient here, so it is naturally stinky. Before the little leader arrived, he smelled the dizzy stench of the straight man, and hurriedly pinched his nose, if it wasn't for the need to solve it and make it convenient, he really didn't want to approach this place, and when he was hesitating, he suddenly heard a burst of laughter.
"Hey, hey. Brethren also come to the convenience? I'll fix it, this place really stinks, I'll wait for you at the bottom of the mountain. ”
The little leader looked over and saw that it was Zhang Yong with a bright smile on his face, and his stiff face hurriedly piled up an ugly smile and said, "No need." Mr. Zhang, let's go together. ”
"Dele, then let's hurry up, don't let the king wait!" Zhang Yong said with a grin, and when he left, he didn't forget to pat the little boss on the shoulder. The little leader's face turned blue suddenly, and he didn't know what he had wiped on his shoulder.
In fact, where was it convenient for Zhang Yong to go just now, but buried eighty percent of the ten taels of gold given by Cao Cheng and the hundred taels of gold used to persuade Yue Fei to surrender in his small treasure chest. And the location where his small treasure chest was buried was in an extremely secret place near the thatched house of this company.
Of course, a stingy and money-greedy person like Zhang Yong would never carry a large amount of money with him, let alone hide it in his house, because in that place, the brothers in the mountains would come to visit at any time, and Cao Cheng could take it back if he was unhappy. When Zhang Yong was squatting in the thatched house one day, he just thought of a plan, and felt that no one would dig treasure in this smelly place, so he started his small treasure chest jihua, thinking that as long as he saved enough money, he left this ghost place, went to the Jiangnan area, bought a mansion, and then bought a bunch of young and well-behaved maids to serve him, and then married a few wives and concubines, gave birth to a lot of babies, and lived the life of an uncle.
Thinking of his future high-end life, Zhang Yong couldn't help but giggle happily.
"Lord Zhang? Mr. Zhang!? Suddenly, an inappropriate voice next to him woke up Zhang Yong's sweet dream. Zhang Yong hurriedly wiped his saliva and asked urgently, "What!?" What happened!? ”
"The brethren are waiting for you to speak. If Master Zhang really has nothing to say, he will give the order to go. From the beginning, it was like a little boss who followed Zhang Yong with a fart and whispered. Zhang Yong was obedient, raised his head, and saw dozens of bandits in front of him, all of them looked over, and some of them bowed their heads and whispered, as if discussing themselves.
Zhang Yong reacted at this time, hurriedly coughed twice, his face was shocked, his chest was raised, and he first said how incompetent the imperial court was, how the Song Emperor was mediocre, how the common people were persecuted, and how Cao Cheng was benevolent.
"Hmph, a bunch of reckless people with brain problems. This shijie is so good, who wants to go desperately. Jiangnan, Jiangnan, when I finish this trip, I have saved enough money, and I will come soon, hehehehe! ”
Zhang Yong smiled secretly in his heart, then his face tightened, and he said eloquently while walking back and forth from side to side: "Brothers, I am not talented in Zhang, and I have taken on a very important task. As long as this task is completed, the king will be overjoyed, and then the brothers will have their own rewards, and if they have money, they will be able to eat and drink spicy food, and if they want to marry their daughters-in-law, and if they want to give birth to babies, I will do whatever I want, I can't control them! ”
Zhang's humorous words can incite people's hearts even more, and the dozens of thieves can listen to daxiao, but their eyes are shining, and they can't wait.
Zhang wiped his nose and smiled: "Hehe." But when you come out of this great king, you will be at my command. Otherwise, if you don't get the bounty and lose your life, it won't be worth it. ”
When the bandits heard this, they suddenly had a great trust in Zhang Yong, and they all responded with their heads, saying that they were willing to listen to Zhang Yong's orders, and whoever dared to disobey would be in a hurry. Zhang Yong saw that it was almost over, so he smiled again and said, "Okay!" It's almost time. After going down the mountain, the big guys smeared themselves with the dirt, and when they saw the officers and soldiers, they didn't look fierce, just like they saw our father and mother. The big guy remembered that we were a group of good people who were jealous and hateful, but were abducted and abducted by the thieves of this Dawang Mountain. This time I went down the mountain to take refuge in the government, and everything else depends on my instructions, and the big guy is improvising when I'm not there. My fellow townsman has been honest and stubborn since he was a child, simple and kind, and his soldiers and horses will never bully people like other officers and soldiers, as long as they remember what I just said, they will be safe! ”
These dozens of thieves and bandits saw that Zhang Yong was telling the truth, and they all kept it in mind. After Zhang Yong gave the order, he finally set off.
Before I knew it, it was almost the second watch time at night. This night, Yue Fei is in the tent night watching the art of war, these days he has repeatedly made military exploits, Liu Tao was overjoyed after learning about it, repaired a book, sent a meteor horse to reply, promoted Yue Fei to Wu Jielang, transferred to a thousand generals, and expanded the army to a thousand people. Liu Tao Xinli originally taught Yue Fei to select soldiers from now on after receiving the letter, but Yue Fei wanted to be incorporated in a hurry, and it was difficult to match, so he did not act according to his orders for the time being.
Yue Fei was fascinated by it, and suddenly a scout team leader came to report, saying that he had found a group of bandits with dozens of people, and they should have escaped from the cottage in embarrassment. The first one said that he was Yue Fei's fellow townsman, and he came to take refuge. When Yue Fei heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, so he rushed out of the tent.
After a while, Yue Fei saw a group of dozens of bandits, all of them disheveled and covered with mud, but the first one was calm and relaxed, and he was talking and laughing with the surrounding officers and soldiers, and suddenly looked at it in a blink of an eye.
At the same time, Yue Fei also looked over, although he hadn't seen him for more than twenty years, he still recognized this eccentric Zhang Yong at a glance. But Zhang Yong saw that Yue Fei was strong and burly, with bright eyes, his face was like a carving, with edges and corners, not angry and mighty, as if a god descended from heaven, he really couldn't recognize Yue Fei for a while, until the surrounding soldiers bowed to Yue Fei respectfully, Zhang Yong knew that the soldier in front of him was Yue Fei.
"Are you really Tang Yin's crybaby!?" Zhang Yong's eyes widened, his face was incredulous, he hurriedly pushed away the two soldiers and rushed towards Yue Fei, his eyes staring tightly, as if he wanted to see Yue Fei from head to toe.
"Huh. Aren't you Tang Yin's little slippery head! A smile appeared at the corner of Yue Fei's mouth, Zhang Yong heard the word Xiao Slippery Head, his eyes widened, and he finally confirmed that the person in front of him was Yue Fei. The two looked at each other for a while, and their minds flashed back to their childhood, which was bitter but carefree, innocent childhood, and they felt a lot for a while, I don't know whether they felt the fast passage of time, or how much they changed each other over the years.
Suddenly, both of them opened their arms and hugged each other heavily, and they both laughed loudly.
No matter how much time has passed, how much the two have changed, during that period of childhood, the two were indeed each other's most important friends. The two used to fish and catch crabs in the river together, and played and had fun together. And Zhang Yong, who has been naughty since he was a child, often does some things like stealing chickens and touching dogs, but he is also righteous enough and often shares the stolen things with Yue Fei. Yue Fei was ignorant when he was young, and every time he heard Zhang Yong say that he was brought out from home, he didn't think about it, so he believed it stupidly.
Once, Zhang Yong stole a jar of wine and hid it first, and then hunted with Yue Fei, and that day he was lucky enough to hunt a pheasant. Yue Fei roasted the chicken, and Zhang Yong went to fetch the wine. But when Yue Fei saw this wine, he still wondered where Zhang Yong got it from, and when he heard Zhang Yong say that it was given by one of his uncles, Yue Fei also believed it. The two children also love to try fresh, after tasting the first sip of wine in their lives, they both feel very spicy and unpalatable, but they are unwilling to lose to each other, the two children fight to drink, and they don't know how much they have roots, and they unconsciously drank a small jar and passed out drunk.
