Wang Lun was sitting in the hall. On his left was Lin Chong, followed by the three Ruan brothers.
The first seat on the right was Lu Wenlong, followed by Mi Yi and Yuan Lang. Zhe Bie wasn't in the Hall of Righteousness. He had brought people into the mountains to train the master archers. Du Qian and Song Wan went to Golden Sands Beach in Lin Chong's place to welcome the visitors.
This wasn't a seating arrangement. It was just that everyone subconsciously sat down.
No one would have thought that the people who paid their respects to the mountain were Chao Gai and the others.
"Chao Baozheng? Why did you go up the mountain?" Wang Lun really did not expect such a situation, and his surprised expression was not faked.
Chao Gai smiled bitterly." I trust you have been well, Chief. Ever since we parted that day, we have been pursued by the authorities. Now, we have no home to return to."”
Liu Tang, who was behind Chao Gai, looked furious. The other man looked as if he wanted to tear Wang Lun apart. Wang Lun laughed secretly. It was no wonder they were so angry. Not only did they fail to steal the chicken, but they also suffered losses. They were also chased by the chicken owner. It was too aggrieved.
"Oh? Was Chao Baozheng looking for a place to stay?”
Chao Gai bowed slightly and said in a low voice,"Although the three of us aren't a match for ten thousand people, we have some tricks up our sleeves. Please take us in. Chao Gai and the others are willing to serve you.”
The conversation between the two was very interesting. They did not mention that Wang Lun had robbed them of their birthday, but only asked Wang Lun to take them in.
Wang Lun didn't reply. He ordered people to set up a banquet and only advised people to eat and drink. When he was asked anxiously, he replied that he would eat and drink until he was full.
After three rounds of wine, Wang Lun apologized and went straight to the back hall. Shangguan Wan 'er was already waiting there.
"Husband, I'm afraid it's not that simple for these three to jump into the mountain.”
"Of course it's not that simple. I took their property and framed them. The government only talked to them. The cat stole the fish and didn't eat it.”
Shangguan Wan 'er nodded and said," It's good that you understand. These three people have come up the mountain most likely to seek revenge. They are quite bold."”
Wang Lun laughed coldly." Nothing ventured, nothing gained. This Chao Gai is quite smart. That's why he did the opposite and put on a pitiful look. Think about it, I was the one who caused him to be like this. Why would I kill him?”
"What do you think, husband?" Shangguan Wan 'er pursed her lips and smiled.”
"There's no hurry. It takes more than courage to enter the tiger's den. I want to see what other methods they have.”Wang Lun chuckled, his large hands covering Shangguan Wan 'er's proud peaks. He kneaded her until Wan' er's starry eyes were half-closed. Then, he laughed loudly and went to the hall.
At this time, it was already late at night. Wang Lun had arranged a place for the three to rest. At the banquet, they already knew that there was another person called Han Bolong, who was the unlucky guy who wanted to go up the mountain in Water Margins but was chopped by Li Kui with an axe.
For several days, Wang Lun held a banquet every day and let the leaders take turns to accompany him. He didn't say that he would take them in or ask them to leave, which made Chao Gai really confused.
The place they lived in was a house on Liangshan that was specially used to receive guests. It was clean and tidy. There were not many people around, but there were small fries patrolling at night from time to time about a hundred steps away.
Han Bolong sat down on a stool by the door, paying attention to the movements outside while listening to the conversation between Chao Gai and his wife.
"Bao Zheng, Wang Lun still doesn't believe us.”Liu Tang was a little anxious. His fiery red hair reflected a demonic color under the oil lamp.
Chao Gai frowned and shouted softly,"Lower your voice!"”
Liu Tang pursed his lips but did not say anything.
"Wang Lun is very cautious, but so what? We entered the mountain not to assassinate him, so he must be thinking about something else.”
Liu Tang sighed and felt regretful. If they succeeded this time, they would no longer have a place to stay in Jianghu. If they failed, they would not be able to escape.
Chao Gai knew what he was thinking and sighed."Brother, I have no choice but to bring your sister-in-law and nephew back. We will go far away and leave this place. I still have some money in my manor. I think it will be enough for us to spend our lives.”
Han Bolong didn't interrupt, just listening quietly. Now, he raised his ears to listen to the noise outside and said in a low voice,""Brother Bao Zheng, if after this incident, there is no place for you and me in the world, we might as well fall into the grass and be happy!”
"Wait, wait." Chao Gai's expression was uncertain. Liu Tang glared at Han Bolong but didn't say anything. He only had a faint feeling that he was wrong again.
Wang Lun only served them with good wine and meat every day. Chao Gai and the other two would wander around the mountain after drinking, and when they came back, they would eat and drink heartily. They did not do anything unusual. Wang Lun, Lin Chong, and even Shangguan Wan 'er were all confused. These guys couldn't possibly be here to eat and drink for free, right?
This stroll lasted for seven or eight days. On this day, Wang Lun arranged the dishes and wine as usual, but Chao Gai and the other two came to bid farewell.
"Why do you have to do this? Wouldn't it be fun to meet each other in the mountains every day?”
Wang Lun's hypocritical face made Chao Gai feel a deep sense of helplessness. Fortunately, I didn't really come to vote for you. If I did, I would have been suffocated to death by you all day long.
"Fort Master, Chao Gai knows that the three brothers are not worthy of Fort Master's attention, so he doesn't dare to stay any longer. I'll go down the mountain and find a way out.”
Wang Lun kept laughing. He could not figure out the path of these three people. However, he was sure that the three of them were not sincere in joining.
Fake One tried to persuade them to stay for a while. Seeing that the three of them were determined to leave, he ordered someone to bring over a plate of gold and silver and bid them farewell in front of the Golden Sand Beach.
"Those who don't know would really think that you two are life-and-death brothers!”Shangguan Wan 'er teased Wang Lun, who was waving his hand like a rock.
"Brothers of life and death naturally fight to the death. As for who will die, that's hard to say.”
"Why do I feel that your gaze is so sinister?”
"That's not what you said last night!”Wang Lun winked at Wan 'er and whispered.
Even though they had been husband and wife for so long and had experienced everything, Wan 'er still instantly blushed and walked forward with small steps.
Wang Lun's appetite was aroused. He chuckled and was about to follow when his ears suddenly twitched. Without thinking, he pounced over and threw Wan 'er to the ground.
Chi!
With a soft sound, a black iron arrow pierced the spot where Wang Lun had been standing!
He suddenly turned his head and saw a small boat swaying out of the reeds not far away. There was a person standing on the small boat, and he was aiming an arrow at Wang Lun!
