king array

Zhong Lishan was probably born as an old hen, good at cuddling nests, and made his bandit village look good.

This is not the first time Ling Xun has come to Qingping Mountain. The first time he came here was to bet on goods, that is, the time he met Zhong Lishan. After several years, he has never been here again. He is really impressed by the earth-shaking changes here. surprised.

"How is it, Brother Feng, isn't my territory not bad?" Zhong Lishan held the rein of the horse and pointed at the rolling green mountains with his whip, with a bit of pride in pointing out the country.

Ling Xun sat idly on the saddle, his gaze directly passed over the gate of the cottage which was several feet high, past the very similar tower at the valley pass, and finally landed on the endless farmland outside the cottage.

It was the autumn harvest season at this time, and the breeze blew across the field, and from time to time, figures hidden among the crops appeared, apparently busy with harvesting.Next to the farmland, there are rows of thatched houses and tile-roofed houses. You can vaguely see children running around in front of the yard and peasant women working.

"The master!"

Bandits on the sentry towers along the mountain road recognized Zhong Lishan and shouted excitedly from a long distance away.

"It's the head of the family! The head of the house is back! Open the gate of the village!"

Maybe it's because they have been in the deep mountains and old forests for a long time, and they have to sing folk songs to each other when they have nothing to do on weekdays. These bandits have developed a good voice, one after another, like howling wolves, straight to the seemingly indestructible The gate into the mountain was also opened.

Those who were still working in the fields heard the movement, and dropped their buddies one after another, and ran forward, with white teeth on their dark faces and bright eyes, just like a milk dog seeing a dog king.

"Brother Zhongli, these farmers...are also bandits in your village?" Ling Xun asked.

"No, these are refugees who fled famine and came here two years ago. Because there were too many people and they were all honest and responsible people, I didn't let them enter the village at that time. I only distributed some food and asked people to build them Who knew that these people would not leave after the beginning of spring, but stayed spontaneously and reclaimed the land at the foot of the mountain.”

Ling Xun gave Zhongli Shan a meaningful look, with a half-smile, "No wonder."

Zhong Lishan: "Oh? No wonder what?"

"No wonder the imperial court wanted to take you away."

Zhong Lishan smiled, not knowing if he understood the deep meaning of Ling Xun's words, he got off his horse and rushed all the way into the village.

Ling Xun was not in a hurry, he followed behind slowly, turning a fine horse into a donkey. He casually glanced at the offensive and defensive layout of Qingping Mountain as he walked, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows. .

Qingping Mountain covers a vast area, including a main peak and three slanted fronts. There are many rivers and clear streams. It is rich in products. I don’t know how many secret passages and hidden doors in the mountains are connected to each other. It looks like a large cunning rabbit hole.Because it is located at the junction of Gyeonggi, Yizhou and Liangzhou, Qingping Mountain should have been an important place to fight for, but for many years, in order to avoid suspicion, no one, whether it is Gyeonggi or Yizhou and Liangzhou, refused to control and let this nest mountain The bandits are getting bigger, until now, but they can't control them if they want to.

"Master Feng, I want to take a look around." As soon as Fang Jue entered the mountain gate, his dark eyes became lively, as if he was facing an enemy who was deep in the tiger's den.

Ling Xun knew that Fang Jue was suspicious from his mother's womb. No matter which field he went to, he would feel restless if he didn't feel every stone clearly.

"Go, but we are guests after all, don't go too far." Ling Xun reminded.

Fang Jue seemed to have received an imperial decree, and he didn't want the horse anymore, so he jumped up on the saddle, lightly tapped his toes, and jumped up to the top of a nearby observation tower. The guards and bandits on it were startled, but what He didn't even notice it, because Fang Jue just borrowed his strength lightly on it, and it was like a ghostly shadow, and he didn't know where the fragrance was coming from.

"Big brother!"

Zhonglishan came back after a narrow escape, the boys in the mountain were really excited, they could see red rabbit eyes all the way into the village, but no matter which rabbit came out suddenly, it looked miserable, Ling Xun was almost caught by his Shan Hu's tsunami-like cries broke his ears.

The man who bumped into Zhong Lishan's arms out of nowhere was a thin man, he looked a few years younger than Zhong Lishan, his facial features were pretty handsome, but his complexion was not very good, there were deep dark circles under his eyes, and his skin was still It is fair, but it looks a little gray because of the lack of light.

"Brother! When we wanted to send people to respond, the capital was already closed! It's my fault, I should have sent people to Beijing earlier! I'm the one who hurt you!! I'm useless!! "The man was crying like a mourner, Ling Xun watched from the sidelines, and felt that a memorial archway should be erected for him, and the word "filial son" should be written on it.

"Don't talk nonsense, this happened suddenly, how could it be all on your shoulders?" Zhong Lishan patted the man's back with his broad palm, almost slapping his small body, "Our man's murderous aura is too strong. Heavy, if you stay in a place like the capital for a long time, you will be recognized, and it is impossible to enter the capital in advance, life and death are fate, fortunately, you have come back now, don't worry too much."

The man managed to let go of all his grief, and seemed to notice the person behind Zhong Lishan, sniffled and asked, "Brother, this is..."

"Look, I forgot to introduce you." Zhong Lishan turned his head and hurriedly introduced to the man, "This is Feng Wuge, the owner of Jinxiu Building. We are old friends. This time, it is thanks to him that we can survive from the dead. .Brother Feng, this is my adopted brother, who is also the second head of Qingping Mountain, named Wu Qing."

As soon as Zhong Lishan finished speaking, his eyes swept over Ling Xun, wondering: "Eh? By the way, Brother Feng, where is the child following you?"

Ling Xun waved his hands nonchalantly, "Don't worry about him, that kid won't know where to play once he enters the mountain gate."

Zhong Lishan didn't say anything, but Wu Qing's face changed slightly, showing a bit of displeasure, "I've heard about Boss Feng's name for a long time, and Qingpingshan is very grateful for helping my elder brother out of danger this time. It's just that the mechanism in this cottage is not very good. Too many, don't hurt Boss Feng's friend by mistake."

Ling Xun was the best at observing words and expressions, and he clearly felt Wu Qing's hostility towards him. Although he couldn't figure out where the hostility came from, he couldn't respond well, so he just laughed it off without saying a word.

Zhong Lishan seemed to be reminded by Wu Qing, worriedly said: "Yes, Wuge, don't be careless, my righteous brother is also proficient in formations, and he arranged many organs in this village, they are very powerful, I still want to Find a way to get that little brother back, but don’t really hurt him.”

Ling Xun was a little surprised, and looked at Wu Qing again, but he didn't smell a trace of a magician from him.

"Brother Zhongli, don't worry, that kid is used to being wild, and no one can control him. If he really hurt him, he deserves it."

"Are you an array mage?!" Wu Qing asked suddenly, her eyes were so bright for a moment that it made Ling Xun's hair stand on end for no reason.

Zhong Lishan said with a smile: "Yeah brother, Brother Feng is a real formation master, haven't you always been very interested in formations, this time Brother Feng is going to live in the village for a while, you just happen to be able to ask him for advice. "

"No need!" Wu Qing didn't appreciate it, and the knife-like eyes just now retracted, and she lowered her eyelashes and said to Zhong Lishan: "Brother, I'm going to cleanse you up tonight, I'll go get ready first." Without waiting for Zhong Lishan's answer, he flung his sleeves and left.

Zhong Lishan pulled his disheveled head in embarrassment, and said to Ling Xun: "Brother Feng, don't mind, my foster brother is like this, his temper is a bit sour."

Ling Xun waved his hand, "Where do people in the world care about these things, the second leader can be considered a man of temperament."

Zhong Lishan was heartbroken, seeing what Ling Xun said, he didn't mind anymore, he took Ling Xun's hand happily and walked towards the inner courtyard, "By the way, Brother Feng, we've known each other for many years, but we've never walked around properly. This is a rare time, I have to let you meet someone."

Ling Xun was aroused by Zhong Lishan's mysterious and mysterious energy; "Who?"

Zhong Lishan: "Your sister-in-law!"

Ling Xun: "..."

This mud leg actually married a wife? !

This was Ling Xun's first reaction, and his second reaction was that he felt something was wrong.

Even if he is a real brother, there is no brother-in-law who would go to his sister-in-law's backyard to receive it the first day he came to the house. Ling Xun was infected in a famous family before he was four years old. "Brother Zhongli, this...isn't it good?"

The brain circuit of the bandit leader obviously failed to connect with Ling Xun, and he turned around in doubt: "What's wrong with this?"

Ling Xun: "After all, it's the courtyard where the women's family members live. I came in as an outsider..."

Zhong Lishan seemed to have heard Ling Xun fart a lot, and when he finished, he waved his hand and continued to drag him to the backyard, reprimanding him as he walked: "Your brain is just stupid in the pile of brocades. If you want me to say, you should stay with us in the stockade for a while longer, and I'm sure all the bullshit will be lost."

Ling Xun saw that Zhong Lishan was determined to show off his wife in front of him, so he had no choice but to stop resisting, and speculated maliciously, thinking that the woman who grew up in the cottage must be either a Yasha spirit or a tigress. He is a ruthless character who can use a kitchen knife to chop stuffing for meat buns, maybe there is really nothing to avoid.

Zhonglishan's usual residence is located on the main peak of Qingping Mountain, which is also the main village of the entire village. The front mountain is used for daily discussions, and the back mountain is the place for living.Ling Xun walked up from the bottom of the mountain. Although he could feel Qingping Mountain's strong financial resources and lack of everything, but after all, it was the property accumulated by the rough men little by little. The architectural layout was completely tasteless, but he did not expect Mountain, but it seems to have changed a style.

First of all, the dirt road under our feet is paved with bluestone slabs unknowingly, and the polished stone surface has wet marks left after the rain.Climbing up the steps along the Qingshiban Road, you can see a small piece of bamboo forest, which is green and green on both sides of the road, adding a bit of bamboo fragrance to the breeze in the mountains for no reason.

Seeing Ling Xun's surprised expression, Zhong Lishan explained: "Your sister-in-law likes to be clean, but she thinks the muddy road will dirty her shoes, so I asked someone to build this stone road for her. She likes bamboo, and this bamboo forest is where I and her We fell together." When he was speaking, the vicious bandit leader who was out there rarely showed tenderness, as if he was just mentioning that person in his mouth, and he had to give him a lot of care.

Ling Xun became more and more curious, wanting to know what kind of woman could turn this stinky and hard piece of refined steel into soft fingers.

While speaking, the mountain road turned again, and the cornices of the houses appeared, and a small green wooden gate stood at the end of the stone road, separating a quiet world away from the dust and hustle and bustle.

The wind at the foot of Zhongli Mountain pulled Ling Xun all the way over, and when he reached the door, he showed a bit of cowardly twitching, which made Ling Xun lose his eyes in shock.

"Brother Zhongli, I didn't expect you to be afraid of guilt! Why, did sister-in-law prepare a washboard for you to kneel on?" Ling Xun teased.

Zhong Lishan gave him a hard look, "Don't talk nonsense! Your sister-in-law is very gentle and treats me very well. I, I haven't seen her for seven or eight months. I'm a little nervous. I don't know if she's getting fat or thin. , see me so rough, will you think I'm not good-looking?"

Ling Xun: "..."

Ling Xun got goosebumps all over his body from being numb, but Zhong Lishan patted him on the shoulder, and said in a tone of someone who has experienced it: "You, you will know when you meet the person you love in the future."

Ling Xun smiled without saying a word, but secretly rolled his eyes, thinking that I am not as unpromising as you, even if I have a wife in the future, I must train myself to be obedient and virtuous.

Thinking of this, Ling Xun didn't know what was going on, but the figure of the head of the Mu family suddenly flashed in front of his eyes, and he couldn't help but put the words "three obediences and four virtues" on him, and unconsciously raised the corners of his lips.

Zhong Lishan didn't pay attention to Ling Xun's expression, adjusted his clothes, and then stretched out his cat-like paws to scratch the green wooden door.

Soon footsteps came from inside the door, and Ling Xun felt that Zhong Lishan's body stiffened at that moment.

The green wooden door opened with a creak, and Ling Xun thought he would see some kind of beauty, but unexpectedly, his eyes were filled with an old face like an orange peel.

"Master! You're back! Yo, why didn't anyone tell me before, Madam doesn't know yet! Wait a minute, I'll call Madam right now, she just took a nap." The woman who spoke should not be too old Age, but I don’t know what kind of wind and frost I have experienced in the limited years. The wrinkled face is dry and dark, but it is very tidy, the teeth are white and the eyes are clear. He should be a person with quick hands and feet and a quick temper.

Zhong Lishan saw the woman turned around and was about to walk in, so he hurriedly stopped her: "Mother Liu, no need! Let her sleep, I have nothing to do today, so I will stay here and guard her."

Mama Liu didn't insist, and said with a smile; "Yes, Madam has become more lethargic than before since she was pregnant, and she has to rest for more than an hour at noon every day..."

"What?! You, what are you talking about? Yes, you are pregnant?" Zhong Lishan's eyes widened and he stuttered.

"Ah? You don't even know about being the head of the family!" Liu Ma's eyes were wider than Zhong Lishan's. "Didn't the second head of the family get in touch with you before? Didn't he tell you?!"

Zhong Lishan was dumbfounded, he stood there in a daze, his expression looked as if he had been struck by lightning, but Ling Xun couldn't see him, so he bumped into him lightly, and said with a smile, "Oh, I'm going to be a father!"

"Mother Liu, who is outside?"

At this moment, a soft and soft voice came, and the Xiaoqing Gate was opened a little wider, revealing a woman's figure.I saw that woman had picturesque eyebrows, fair and delicate skin, and thin body bones. She looked a little thin at first, but the slightly raised arc of her abdomen added a bit of mature female charm to her.

When Zhong Lishan saw the woman, his eyes turned red in a daze, and he called softly, "Xiaozhen."

However, the moment Ling Xun saw the woman's face clearly, his mind went blank with a bang.
