Chapter 40
Li Jun sheds tears in memory of the judge
Li Jun was startled and quickly looked at Song Jiang. Sure enough, he was dark, fat, short, and had the same appearance as the legendary Shiyu.
He immediately panicked and subconsciously went to help him, but his brother Li Li died in his hands after all. Even if it was difficult to avenge this revenge, should he still make friends with his enemies? He was confused for a moment.
Cao Cao was amused, so he helped Song Jiang up, and said some cheap words: "You can't get to know each other without fighting. We are all straight-minded heroes. What are we afraid of when there are some conflicts? After drinking, we are still good friends."
When Pei Xuan saw it, he ordered his minions to clean the hotel, bring out clean wine, and pour bowls of it on the table.
Cao Cao held Song Jiang with his left hand and Li Jun with his right hand, and they went to the table together. At this time, several groups of people arrived one after another. The minions went to enjoy the shade under the shade of the trees. The leading heroes all entered the room and took their seats. Cao Cao stood up and introduced everyone.
After a while, Song Jiang was envious when he saw that Cao Cao had gained many heroes.
Only then did Li Jun learn that the man he had mistakenly thought was Song Jiang was actually a very extravagant hero, Wu Mengde Wuzhi of Yanggu County. How could he sit still while he was so surprised? He stood up and wanted to bow down, but Cao Cao held him down firmly.
He stopped and said with a smile: "We are all men of the world, don't talk about false etiquette, everything is in the wine."
After saying that, he picked up two bowls of wine and drank one bowl each with Li Jun.
Although Li Jun is a hero of the world, he is not quite the same as those people who are drunk now. He often likes to chew on seemingly irrelevant issues slowly in his heart. As time goes by, he becomes more profound and thoughtful.
It's quite long term.
He was quarreling with Cao Cao today, and was speechless after a few words. If it were anyone else, he would have been agitated and angry, but Li Jun was so depressed that he looked at Cao Cao. At this moment, seeing his generous words and upright behavior, he became more and more angry.
Heartbroken.
I secretly thought to myself: Sure enough, it is better to be famous than to meet him. Timely Rain Song Jiang has become very famous in the past few years, but I think this person is nothing more than that. On the contrary, Wu Zhi, although his fame is short-lived, but judging from his spirit, he is really a hero! Not even that.
It’s a waste to call him Wu Mengde.
During the dinner, Cao Cao saw that Song Jiang was a little depressed and said: "Gongming, you went to Liangshan well, why did you end up here again?"
Song Jiang smiled bitterly and said: "I was about to complain to my eldest brother when I learned that we were not separated from him in February. The younger brother took Hua Rong and others to Liangshan. Unexpectedly, he met a hero on the way, called 'General Shi' Shi Yong, and brought his younger brother with him.
In the Song and Qing Dynasty, I wrote a funeral letter. When I heard that my father was dead, I cried until I fainted. I asked them to go up the mountain and rushed home to attend the funeral. Who knew that this was a lie? It was because my father was afraid that I would wander around the world for a long time, so I went up the mountain.
Luocao had insulted his family name, and he deserved an amnesty. The death penalty was reduced to a lighter sentence, so he asked his younger brother to trick me into coming back. I went to the Yamen for a trial and was sentenced to be exiled to Jiangzhou. The two gentlemen Zhang Qian and Li Wan sent me here.
Unexpectedly, he had a bad fate and met a black shop again. It was not the big brother who rescued him. At this time, there was no Song Jiang in the world, only steamed buns stuffed with Song Jiang."
He talked openly about his family's misfortune, and he did not hesitate to make fun of himself. All the heroes burst out laughing, thinking: This man is quite open-minded.
Here, Song Jiang poured a bowl of wine and was about to kneel down to thank Cao Cao for saving his life. Cao Cao stopped him and said, "You are the brother-in-law of my second son. After all, you and I are also brothers. What can I say thank you for? Come on, drink and drink."
."
Song Jiang was very grateful, drank a bowl of wine with him, and asked: "Brother, why are you coming south this time?"
Cao Cao pondered for a moment, glanced at the faces of Song Jiang, Li Jun, and others, and said: "It's okay to say it, but it's me, brother Pei Xuan, who was bullied by others in Jiangzhou in the past and has some grievances. We will take action in a big way."
We are going out to take revenge."
Hearing that he traveled thousands of miles just to avenge his brother, Li Jun and others were greatly impressed, and they all cheered: "As expected of Wu Mengde, his loyalty is comparable to that of Lord Mengchang."
Li Jundong asked: "But I don't know which villain killed this brother Pei?"
Cao Cao laughed and said: "The left and right are just those officials who think they are noble, but in fact they are useless." As he spoke, his eyes casually glanced at the two men. How smart is Li Jun? He understood immediately. The enemy was obviously
Public figures, these two men are here, so I don’t want to say more.
Li Jun immediately said: "I am not talented. I have been working on this river for many years. I am familiar with the roads in several state capitals. If I can use my skills, I have been through mountains and fires several times. No matter whether the opponent is a high official or a wealthy businessman, it will only be a single blow."
matter."
After that, I poured a bowl of wine and drank it. This means that I know that the person you are dealing with is not an ordinary person, but I am not afraid and I am willing to help you.
Cao Cao said with emotion: "Okay, my brother named Wu has accepted this kindness!" He also poured a bowl of wine and drank it, and the two of them laughed together.
Everyone had a drink in the hotel, and Li Jun said: "I have one more thing to ask for. I hope Brother Wu will do it, and Brother Song will accept it."
Song Jiang said: "What's going on?"
Cao Cao had guessed it and said with a smile: "You want to bury the owner of the shop?"
Li Jun winked, and together with the two boys and the three boys, they stood up and knelt down and said: "Although Li Li's behavior is a bit unsightly, he has known me for a long time and has always respected and loved me. I don't want to see his body exposed as a friend."
Brothers, please be careful."
Song Jiang sighed: "So that's it, that's all. If a person dies, the debt will be wiped out. I've already avenged myself. How can I still care about the dead person?"
Cao Cao also said: "When we are friends, we should treat each other accordingly."
At that moment, Li Jun, Tong Wei, and Tong Meng found some guys and went out to dig a hole. They found two boxes in the room and split them open. They hurriedly nailed a coffin, boiled a pot of soup, cleaned Li Li's body, and changed into good clothes.
He was buried in a coffin.
After the tombs were piled up, Li Jun took out some yellow paper from the room and burned it. He poured a pot of wine in front of the tomb, lit three sticks of incense, and prayed: "Brother Li Li, these incense sticks and yellow paper were originally sent by you.
Those unjust ghosts who died in your shop unexpectedly benefited from it today. You know that there will be a time in the world for retribution. We brothers only hope that you will join a wealthy family in the next life and don't come to the world again.
Asking for food."
After saying this, he burst into tears and bowed three times in front of the grave.
Seeing his sincere affection, Cao Cao couldn't help feeling emotional. He also lit three sticks of incense and bowed to him: "Friend Li Li, everyone has their own destiny. Don't blame me for destroying your food and clothing and taking your life. It was really your fault."
, it is not a heroic act. If there is an afterlife, I hope you will be reborn as a good child and be a good man."
Putting incense in the soil, he pulled Li Jun up and said: "As long as a person lives, the grass and trees will fall, and brothers must still mourn."
Li Jun wiped away his tears and said: "Although he is a wicked person, he always has good intentions towards his brothers."
Everyone sighed and it was getting dark, so Li Jun invited everyone to stay at his house.
Li Jun lived in a fishing village at the foot of Jieyang Mountains. He had twenty or thirty companions, all of whom were doing private business with him. He immediately used these people and taught them to kill chickens and dogs, cook rice and fish, and entertain Cao Cao and others.
People, and asked every household in the village to clean up their empty houses and let everyone rest for the night.
At night, Li Jun said to Cao Cao privately: "My dear brother, a large number of troops are going to Jiangzhou. I am afraid of attracting people's attention. In my humble opinion, it is better to station the troops in this village and send someone to visit Jiangzhou first to find out the way.
I also have a stronghold in Jiangzhou, but it is in a certain shop in a certain street and lane. As long as I send someone to the shop and say that I want to meet Hun Jianglong, I can go there and meet him within two days, and then mobilize troops and horses.
Not too late."
Cao Cao was overjoyed after hearing this. He originally intended to leave his troops outside the city first, but with Li Jun's help, it was naturally better. He immediately summoned a group of brothers to discuss the matter. He went to Jiangzhou in person, and Pei Xuan led everyone to stay behind.
He also took out the money and forced Li Jun to accept it, asking him to send people to buy more rice and meat to feed the army.
After discussing, everyone stayed overnight and had breakfast the next day. Cao Cao said goodbye to everyone and took Luan Tingyu, Shi Xiu, Shi Qian, Jiang Jing, and Tao Zongwang alone. He did not ride a horse, but walked with Song Jiang and two men.
