In less than a day, Wu Song returned to Qinghe County.
After bidding farewell to Landlord Zhang, Wu Song headed straight home. He did not expect to meet Wu Dalang on the way.
Wu Dalang was carrying a load and selling cooking cakes on the street. When he suddenly saw Wu Song return, he couldn't help but be overjoyed and say,"Brother, you ran away for two to three months and there was no news from you.”
Wu Song said guiltily," That day, I injured that secret and thought he was dead. So I ran to the residence of the great official Chai in Cangzhou and let my brother suffer."”
Wu Dalang complained," You injured that confidential information and made me suffer a lawsuit. I had to wait at the yamen at any time. I had to go back and forth for a month and suffered a lot!"”
Then, Wu Dalang smiled and said,"But it's fine now. It's good that you're back, brother."”
Wu Song felt a warmth in his heart. He said a few words to Wu Dalang, then carried the burden for him and walked straight home.
After returning home, Wu Dalang said,""Brother, you stay at home for a while. I'll go out and buy some wine and meat.”
"Elder brother, please wait!"
Wu Song pulled his brother to sit down and closed the door. Then, he took out the gold that Xu Fengwu had given him.
Wu Dalang had never seen so much money before. He was so frightened that his expression changed. He quickly said,"Brother, where did you get so much gold? Did you become a strong man?”
" Brother, let me explain," Wu Song said." A few days ago, I met a high-ranking official at Chai's place. He treated me like a brother. Was this gold given to me by him?"”
"Is there such a thing?" Wu Dalang asked hesitantly. What is the name of that great official?"
Wu Song said half-truthfully," That official's surname is Jia. He's from Jeju, Tokyo. His family does a big business. Not only do they have thousands of acres of fertile land, but they also have a hundred thousand yuan of wealth. He's also a righteous person."”
Wu Dalang was an honest man. When he saw Wu Song's words, he immediately believed everything, but it also made him feel that it was unreal.
"Brother, keep this bag of gold well. You'll need it in the future." Wu Song continued.”
Wu Dalang quickly said," How can I take this money? Brother, just keep it well. It's good for you to marry a wife in the future."”
"Big brother hasn't married yet, so why should I be anxious?" Wu Song said with a smile. With this sum of money, Brother might as well ask someone to matchmake and marry a virtuous sister-in-law.”
After hearing this, Wu Dalang couldn't help but grin. After hesitating for a moment, he said,"I'll keep this bag of gold for you.”
As he spoke, Wu Dalang carefully hid the bag of gold bars and checked it carefully a few times before he was relieved.
Then, Wu Dalang went out to sell some wine and meat and returned to have a meal with Wu Song.
Wu Song was very happy today. He couldn't help but drink a few more bowls and fell asleep. Who knew that when he woke up, it was already the next day.
Wu Song got up and washed his face. Seeing that his brother Wu Da had already gone out and there were still steamed buns and beef in the pot, he immediately picked up a jar of wine and started eating.
Halfway through the meal, someone knocked on the door. Wu Song walked over and opened the door. It was a manservant.
"Are you Wu Song and Wu Erlang?"”
"I'm Wu Song. Who are you?" Wu Song nodded.”
"I'm from Minister Zhang's residence. Minister Zhang has specially instructed me to invite you to his residence."”
"Landlord Zhang asked me to go?" Wu Song was stunned for a moment.
……
Xu Fengwu and his group arrived at Qingzhou, and their destination was Clear Wind Camp.
Clear Breeze Camp was located above Clear Breeze Town, north of Qingzhou City. It was about a hundred miles from here to Qingzhou.
Yan Shude wanted to go to Qingzhou to find Qin Ming, so Xu Fengwu did not try to stop him. He also gave him a bag of gold and silver, and then watched him continue south.
Fresh Breeze Town was located at the fork of the road. There were three to five thousand families here, and it was only one stop away from Fresh Breeze Mountain.
Xu Fengwu and his group entered the town and went straight to the North Village. Seeing that there was a door outside, Xu Fengwu walked over and said,""I'm Song Jiang from Yuncheng County. I'm a good friend of your Zhi Village, so I'm here to visit.”
Xu Fengwu naturally wouldn't say his real name, nor was he bothered to think of a fake name. He directly used Song Jiang's name, which was simple and convenient.
"Wait a moment, allow this lowly one to go in and report.”A soldier turned around and entered the camp.
After a while, a young officer walked out. He had red lips and white teeth. He was very handsome. It was Little Li Guang of Clear Wind Camp and Wu Zhi Camp, Hua Rong.
How did Xu Fengwu know Hua Rong?
It turned out that before Huang An, Hua Rong was the commander of Jeju.
The Hua family was also a family of generals for generations, and several generations of them had been military officials of the imperial court.
Hua Rong had such a background, coupled with his extraordinary martial arts and archery skills, he had become a team trainer at a young age.
It was precisely because of this that Song Jiang, a small escort, was able to befriend Hua Rong and make Hua Rong become a fan. In the end, he even gave up his official position.
After Xu Fengwu transmigrated, he found out that Hua Rong was in Jeju, so he naturally wanted to find a way to befriend him.
More than a year ago, Hua Rong was transferred to Qingzhou as the head of Clear Wind Camp.
When Hua Rong heard that Song Jiang had arrived, he was instantly overjoyed. He hurriedly came out to welcome him, but he saw Xu Fengwu instead. Song Jiang was nowhere to be seen.
However, Hua Rong quickly reacted. He quickly held Xu Fengwu's hand and said,"Brother, why did you suddenly come? Come with me to my house.”
"Please don't blame me for coming here!”
Xu Fengwu didn't say much and led Ruan Xiaoqi, Shan Shiqi and the rest into Clear Wind Camp with Hua Rong.
When he arrived at Hua Rong's residence, he asked the soldier to lead everyone's horses to the backyard. He then invited everyone to sit down before saying to Xu Fengwu,"Brother, why did you come to Qingzhou? When I heard the soldier report earlier, I really thought that Brother Gongming had come. I didn't expect it to be you.”
"My identity is sensitive now. If I tell you my real name, it will inevitably bring trouble to my brother. That's why I used the name of Warden Song," said Xu Fengwu.”
Hua Rong sighed and said," I've also heard about your matter. The imperial court's implementation of the land reclamation law has harmed countless people. With your character, it's normal that you can't stand it."”
Xu Fengwu smiled." Brother, you know me well. Now, I'm sitting in the top spot on Liangshan Lake. I'm with a group of good brothers. The government can't control me."”
Hua Rong also smiled and said,"I'm afraid that you'll make him sick."”
" It's been more than two months," Xu Fengwu said." My father has already gotten over his anger. Besides, what else can he do?"”
Hua Rong shook his head and smiled. He then looked at Ruan Xiaoqi and the others and said,""Brother, introduce me to your brothers.”
"Good!"
Xu Fengwu nodded and introduced everyone to Hua Rong. Even Shiqian was called a chivalrous bandit by him, making Shiqian's face shine.
Finally, Xu Fengwu said to everyone,""This is Hua Rong, known as Little Li Guang.”
"I've heard of the name of Huazhi Stronghold in Jeju." Ruan Xiaoqi smiled.”
" I often travel around Shandong and Hebei," Liu Tang said." I heard that Little Li Guang's martial arts are extraordinary. He's also a godly archer. He can be said to hit every shot."”
If it was said that in the officialdom, Hua Rongyin's rank was not high, so few people knew about him, then in the Jianghu, his name was too famous.
Which hero would not praise his martial arts and archery skills?
Most importantly, Hua Rong was the stronghold leader of Clear Wind Stronghold. He was mainly responsible for the security of this area. If any blind Jianghu man dared to be presumptuous here, he would inevitably suffer.
The bandits of Clear Wind Mountain and Twin Dragon Mountain did not dare to invade this place because Hua Rong was in Clear Wind Camp.
Just like how thieves were afraid of constables, those powerful people in the martial world were naturally afraid of Hua Rong.
Hua Rong cupped his fists at everyone and said,"Since everyone here is Brother Feng Wu's brother, then you are also my friends. Now that he is in charge of Liang Mountain Lake, I hope that everyone will help him in the future so that Liang Mountain Lake can prosper!”
Shan Shiqi, Ruan Xiaoqi, and the others were not the only ones who were shocked. Even Xu Fengwu was surprised.
What was going on?
Hua Rong was a military official of the imperial court. It was fine if he did not dissuade Xu Fengwu, but he actually asked everyone to assist him and help Xu Fengwu strengthen Liang Mountain Lake!
Did Hua Rong not know that Liangshan was now going against the government?
For a moment, everyone was a little confused.
