Travel to the Water Margin

Chapter 167 Returning to Dengzhou is already a passerby
After a pause, he continued: "It's just that there are twists and turns, and the secret must not be revealed."

Going on, he really refused to say another word.

Murong Zheng was confused, every time his father said that, he would bring up Nanyang.

Who knows, Murong Yanda said again: "Now your uncle has sent a secret letter, asking you to bring someone to kill a few people."

Murong Zheng thought about it, and it was indeed so, he hurriedly said: "Zheng'er takes orders."

Murong Yanda closed his eyes, pinched his fingers, and said: "Next month, your Uncle Nanyang will go to Dali to help my cousin Murong Bei win the throne of Dali King, and Dali will send envoy Li Zicong and deputy envoy Li Boxiang to pay tribute to Song Dynasty.

Huizong ordered Guangzhou observation envoy Huang Zhan and Guangdong deputy envoy Xu Ti to accompany him to Beijing.He has already met with Li Zhiyi, killed this man, and delayed Huizong's appointment as King of Dali! "

"Who is that man? What does he look like?"

"I don't know about this either. You'll see when the time comes. Take our dead soldiers with you and be careful not to make mistakes along the way!"

After finishing speaking, Murong Yanda swaggered away.

A week later, Lin Youde and his entourage returned to Dengzhou. On that day, all the literati and military officials Lin Youde knew or didn't know in Dengzhou came from all directions to congratulate him.

"I wish the son-in-law a thousand years old!"

"I wish Zhuangyuan Lang a fortune!"

Even the newly-appointed prefect of Dengzhou directly reserved the first floor of the most famous restaurant in Dengzhou to feast the guests.

Forced to have no choice, Lin Youde took Wu Song and Zhu Wu Laowang to the banquet.

Lin Chong and Yang Zhi escorted twenty tigers to a sparsely populated mountain in Dengzhou surrounded by cliffs on three sides.

Lin Youde listened absent-mindedly, nodding with a smile on his face, but didn't take a word to heart.

However, all the people attending the banquet were acquaintances and ordinary people, and Wu Song and others were all blushed and thick necked by the enthusiastic young people.

At this time, there was a sudden noise outside, and a hoarse and vigorous voice was yelling.

It caused everyone to look towards the noise.

I saw a white-haired old man, wearing a patched gray shirt, he was obviously a very poor old boy, constantly clamoring to congratulate Lin Youde.

Wu Song stepped forward and said to the old boy with a pleasant face, "Old man, I will give you five taels of silver. How about going to another place to drink?"

As he spoke, he took out an ingot of silver and handed it over.

Old Tongsheng rolled his eyes upwards: "In these days, there are so many snobs, and people look down upon when they are poor. Since the master doesn't appreciate it, why should I, Old Tongsheng, meddle in this business and go away!"

He threw the silver, turned around and walked out.

Everyone couldn't help roaring with laughter, knowing at a glance that it was an excuse to cheat food and drink.

Someone said: "This old boy just wants to ask for some rewards, how can he?"

Lin Youde waved his hand and shook his head to let the old boy enter the building.

Wu Song widened his eyes and glanced at the old boy.

This time it was all right, Wu Song, Zhu Wu and Lao Wang fell to the ground, their faces were flushed with burnt ashes.

Lin Youde was speechless, even if Zhu Wu and Lao Wang fell to the ground, why did the drunk Wu Song also fall?

But the old Tongsheng laughed loudly, pinched his hands, and slapped Zhu Wu, only to see a thunderbolt shot out in the dark night.

Lin Youde was stunned: "Thunder in the palm?"

Let me go, are you really tempted by Zhang Xinlei?

The old boy gave out thunder and lightning from the palms of his hands, and he slapped Zhu Wu twice, Zhu Wu who was caught off guard suddenly fell to the ground aggrieved.

Lin Youde immediately jumped out of the restaurant, with a "clang", the dragon blood knife was unsheathed, and a cyan wind blade was clearly visible in the dark night.

With a bang, the old Tongsheng moved incomparably more swiftly, looked at Lin Youde with bright eyes, and danced with joy when he saw Lin Youde.

Lin Youde gave a long bow, and said: "I, Lin Youde, these three people are subordinates, they offended the old man, please forgive me, now let the old man sit down and drink!"

Old Tongsheng rolled his eyes and said, "Are you sincere?"

Lin Youde said: "I am sincere."

"Okay then, bring the wine, and the old boy will drink before bypassing these three boys!"

Lin Youde immediately brought the jug of wine himself.

Old Tongsheng grabbed a jug, gurgled it to his mouth and drank it dry, licked his mouth and praised: "Good wine, good wine, take two more jugs!"

The guests were in an uproar, saying that the old man was here to cheat and drink, which was a big spoiler.

Old Tongsheng didn't care, he grabbed the wine and poured it into his mouth, so angry that the people around him scolded him one after another, jumped up and cursed him, scolding him for being rude and telling him to get out.

"How dare you ask Zhuangyuan Lang to pour you wine!"

"My son-in-law, don't pay attention to this lunatic!"

"Yes, yes."

However, the old boy gave birth to one pot after another, but they were not seen drunk, and everyone was very surprised.

At this time, Old Tongsheng had had enough of his alcohol addiction, and laughed loudly: "As expected of being the No. [-] Scholar Building in the current discipline, as worthy of being Lin Youde who is both civil and military. Such an imposing manner, Mr. Lin will be appointed as a Marquis and Prime Minister in the future!"

After saying this, many people also laughed, calling Lao Tongsheng an idiot, Lin Youde is already a son-in-law, and has reached the pinnacle of life!

Lin Youde pondered and did not answer.

Who knew that the old boy said: "Don't worry about these ordinary people, bah! I don't know how much better than them."

Lin Youde smiled wryly and said: "Thank you sir for the beauty of your congratulations, and I will give you 50 taels of silver as a reward!"

Old Tongsheng didn't refuse, he took his banknotes and left cheerfully.

The guests all over the building couldn't help shaking their heads.

Zhuangyuan Building is really grand.

"My lord, we have been bullied." Only then did the three get up, with aggrieved and mournful expressions on their faces.

Lin Youde rubbed his head: "Drinking, we don't have the same knowledge as the old people."

This old boy is very strange, but as long as you show up in Dengzhou, I will always find you.

"Hey, did this bastard drink so much?" Hua Niang and Zhang Xiaoman looked at Lin Youde who was already drunk and were speechless for a while.

At night, Lin Youde was sleeping soundly, when suddenly he felt the cold wind blowing, and someone was calling in his ear, so he opened his eyes to see it, and he jumped up in fright.

He obviously slept at home so well, why did he end up in the wilderness for no reason!
I pinched my arm, wasn't it a dream?

Looking around, seeing the desolation, I couldn't help panicking, and hurried away.

As soon as I took two steps, I heard someone say: "You silly boy, where are you going!"

Lin Youde trembled, followed the sound and saw a person sitting on the grass, under the moonlight it was just a vague black shadow, he asked, "Are you a human or a ghost?"

"Bastard, can ghosts speak human language?"

"then who are you?"

"Hey, didn't you see him in a restaurant just now? How come you didn't recognize him in a blink of an eye!"

Lin Youde took a closer look, it was the old boy who was making trouble in the restaurant!
"Ah, it turned out to be an old man. It's a pleasure to meet you! But it's late at night now, so I'll talk about it another day, and I'll talk about it another day."

"Hmph! To put it bluntly, you seem to be a slippery head. Maybe you slipped away?"

"In the middle of the night, what's the matter with the old man?" Lin Youde was speechless, this old boy's life was too weird.

"Is an old man in a hurry to go home and hold his wife? Aren't you unmarried?"

"This... The problem is that I don't sleepwalk, how did I get here."

"But I know, do you want to listen?"

Lin Youde wiped off his sweat: "All ears."

"You slept comfortably on the bed, it was my father who dragged you out of the bed and carried you here." Old Tongsheng had a smug expression on his face.
