[Comprehensive Water Margin] Female supporting role is not bad

Two years is enough time for Ni Xi to prepare many things.The effect of all martial arts in the village is very obvious. Every man in his prime knows martial arts, and even children and women know some basic moves, which are enough for self-defense.In addition, Ni Xi began to store a large amount of grain and grass in advance in Zhuangzi a year ago, as well as some first-class knives, guns and sticks, in case of emergencies.

There is also an exciting news, that is, Ni Xi made a fire/powder that is more powerful than the "black fire/powder" of this period. Although the Song Dynasty already had fire/powder at this time, its lethality was too small. Mostly used as a deterrent.The formula is held in Ni Xi's hand, and this newly made fire/powder is her "meeting gift" to Liang Shanbo when the time comes.

As for Liangshanbo, it has developed a huge momentum in the past two years. It is known as "walking the way for the sky", and Song Jiang's "timely rain" at the head has attracted people from all walks of life to join him, and he has become a tyrant.

At this time, Taigong Hu was very grateful that he followed Ni Xi's suggestion. After all, Hu's Village is not far from Liangshanbo, and he might come one day. If Ni Xi hadn't made these preparations, I'm afraid he really Too worried to sleep.

As for Zhujiazhuang and Lijiazhuang, they each strengthened their patrols and defenses to prevent people from Liangshanbo from getting in. Zhujiazhuang even distributed some simple knives to each hotel and told everyone that as long as they found anyone suspected of being a bandit in Liangshanpo, Be sure to report it up.

----

On this day, the Hujiazhuang Shanxia Hotel opened normally to welcome guests. The hotel was built at the foot of the hill to provide food, lodging and rest for passing guests. Although it is located in a remote forest valley, the business is good.There are four hotels like this in Hujiazhuang, which are distributed in various directions. One is to generate more revenue, and the other is to have mixed guests, which is convenient for Zhuangzi to use as eyes and ears to inquire about news from all corners of the world.

Although the waiter in the shop seemed to be standing leisurely, he observed the people in the shop calmly, especially some mighty and frightening men. Ni Xi also gave orders to everyone, asking everyone to pay attention to whether there is someone from Liang Shanbo. People come and go.

The waiters in the hotel are smart people carefully selected by Ni Xi. After Ni Xi taught them martial arts, they were sent down the mountain to do things. These people are all loyal to Hu's village.

At this moment, the waiter of the shop is secretly investigating. He had heard the eldest lady tell everyone in the village that not far from here, there lived a group of vicious and vicious thieves. They all enjoy burning, killing, and looting. The more people they kill, the higher their status in Liangshanbo, and some of them don't spare even the old, young, women and children, and they kill the whole family at every turn, which is really bad.

The whole village of Hujiazhuang knew Liang Shanbo's notoriety, and they were outraged. Even sometimes when children cried, their parents would scare the children with "the one who cries Liang Shanbo will take you away", and the effect was amazing. good.At this moment, after Ni Xi issued the order to beware of Liang Shanbo, everyone followed it very seriously.

The waiter in the store respects the eldest lady very much. The eldest lady is not only good at martial arts, but also very kind to the people in the village. She has also helped everyone a lot, and everyone's life is much better than before.

"Brother, let's rest here!"

A strange male voice suddenly rang in the ears of the shop clerk. The shop clerk was startled, and quickly came back to look, only to see three middle-aged men standing carelessly at the door of the shop.

The one in the middle is very tall and mighty, with eyebrows drawn into the temples, phoenix eyes facing the sky, yellowish complexion, a waist knife stuck in his waist, and a bulging package on his back, I don't know what it is.

On the left of the big man is a man with a thin body and an ordinary face, holding a simple knife, but his eyes are vaguely revealing a bit of evil spirit.And the man on the right is slightly shorter than the first two, and his demeanor looks quite flexible, with a pair of mouse eyes turning straight to look around.

These three people don't look like ordinary people.

The waiter hurried forward to greet him respectfully: "Three guests, please come inside."

As soon as he approached, the waiter's heart skipped a beat. Since he was a child, his sense of smell has been more sensitive than ordinary people. When he got close to these three people, he actually smelled a bloody smell from them. Although it was not very strong, he still noticed it. up.

He has stayed in this hotel for a long time, and has seen all kinds of people. I am afraid that these three people came here not long after they just killed someone.

Fortunately, the waiter in the shop was an astute person, although he was surprised in his heart, he didn't show any emotion on his face.He led the three of them to sit down at the table, served wine, meat and food, and walked away respectfully.

There were other customers in the store at the moment, the waiter pretended to be busy, but his ears were sharp, listening to the conversation on the three-person table.

I only heard the big man with a pair of phoenix eyes say in a low voice while drinking: "Since I killed Pan Qiaoyun, I feel very happy. It's just brother. Are you sure where they will take me in if you vote?"

The thin man smiled, "Don't worry, brother, I already have connections. Before Yang Lin and Dai Zong left, they left me ten taels of silver, saying that I would go there to find them in the future, and just go and seek refuge."

"That's good." The phoenix-eyed man seemed relieved, and drank another bowl of wine.

"Come on, drink!" said another man.

The three were chatting and laughing, it was so lively.

Where does "there" refer to?The waiter was puzzled, so he continued to listen for a while, but the three of them spoke in a very cryptic way, and they didn't mention specific places, they just talked about knives, guns and sticks.

The three of them ate and ate for two full hours, and seeing that it was getting dark, they rested in the shop again.

At night, Ni Xi came to her hotel with a few dealers. She has been too busy recently. She has been reconciling the accounts for the past two days.The hotel is the source of news about Hujiazhuang, and the time is getting tighter. She doesn't know when the people from Liangshanbo will come, so she plans to distribute the simple knives to the people in the store to make them pay attention to safety.

When we arrived at the hotel, the store was closed, and Ni Xi knocked on the door.The waiter in the shop opened the door with sleepy eyes. Seeing Ni Xi, he became refreshed: "Miss, why are you here?"

"I'll take a look."

Ni Xi asked casually, "Where's Uncle Chen?" Uncle Chen is the old shopkeeper of the store and is deeply trusted.

The waiter welcomed Ni Xi and others in and said, "The shopkeeper has already fallen asleep, why don't you call him over?"

Ni Xi shook his head, "No need, it's nothing important, since Uncle Chen is asleep, I won't bother him."

She asked the farmer behind her to take out ten shiny good simple knives and hand them to the waiter: "Shuanzi, you and Uncle Chen should prepare these simple knives just in case. If there is anything wrong, please notify immediately. We." There was a special flare in the hotel, as long as the flare was burned, she would know.

"Miss, don't worry, the villain knows." The waiter took it carefully and hid the simple knife under the counter.

Ni Xi went to all four stores today, and it was already night when she arrived at this store. Although these things can be done by others, she regards these stores as very important, and it is more assured to do it herself.

Although a little tired, she pulled herself together and asked about the situation in the store, and the waiter answered them one by one.

Now that everything is fine, Ni Xi is relieved. She was about to go back when she suddenly thought of something and asked, "I asked you to pay more attention to the guests who came to visit me a few days ago. Have you noticed anything wrong? ?”

The waiter was taken aback for a moment, he recalled the people and things he had met these days, and there was nothing wrong, even if some people from the world passed by, they were walking alone and had nothing to do with Liang Shanbo.

However, he thought for a while and said: "Three customers came to the store today. Those three people did not look like ordinary people. The villain also smelled a bloody smell on them, and eavesdropping on their conversation seemed to be murder." I don’t know if it’s not right to ask where people are going to seek refuge?”

"Oh?"

Those who kill people will usually be wanted by the government. The so-called refuge is just to be a bandit and a robber. The three people wanted to seek refuge but passed by here, and the nearest place to this place is Liangshanbo.

Ni Xi became interested, "Tell me what they said again."

The waiter repeated it as he said, and Ni Xi listened quietly.

After listening, she raised her eyebrows: "Are you sure that person mentioned the name "Pan Qiaoyun"?"

The waiter thought about it again, and said with certainty: "Yes, Miss. From what the villain heard, it seems that he killed a woman named Pan Qiaoyun."

"What a fate..."

Ni Xi chuckled lightly.

She thought she knew who those three were.

Now, it's interesting.

----

Besides, since Yang Xiong and Shi Xiu killed Pan Qiaoyun and Ying'er in Cuiping Mountain, Yang Xiong put all the jewelry and hairpins on Pan Qiaoyun's body into the package, and he didn't know where to go.At this time, Shi Xiu came up with an idea, intending to join Liang Shanbo, and Yang Xiong agreed. The two were about to go down the mountain, but they met a rascal who Yang Xiong had helped.

This person's surname changed from time to time, and he was living here. Relying on his dexterity and some martial arts skills, he always likes to do some tricks such as flying over eaves and walls and stealing chickens and dogs.After witnessing what Yang Xiong and Shi Xiu did, he begged them to take him to Liangshan together.

Shi Xiu agreed, so the three of them started to rush towards Liangshanbo.

The three of them were walking on a small road, exhausted from the day and night's itinerary. After arriving at this hotel, they had a good meal, and after getting a room, the three of them fell to the ground and fell into a deep sleep.

Unexpectedly, she fell asleep, and suddenly the door of the room was kicked open from the outside, and five or six tall men rushed in. Before the three of Shi Xiu could react, they were already tied tightly with ropes.

"Qingping World, why did you tie us up!" Shi Qian was still in a daze, and Shi Xiu and Yang Xiong were also tied up so tightly that they couldn't move.

"Stop talking nonsense, the eldest lady said, you are thieves in Liangshanbo, if you don't tie me up, who will I tie!"

Who is Miss Lao Shizi?

Shi Qian wanted to ask again, but was impatiently kicked by a strong man, and escorted the three of them to a wing together with others.

When they arrived in the wing room, when Shi Xiu, Yang Xiong, Shi Qian and the three went to see it, they were all taken aback.

In the room, the candles were brightly lit, and a woman in green clothes was sitting on a big chair in the middle, looking at them with a smile.

A woman is beautiful, her beauty is not the kind of weak and boneless beauty that makes people feel pity, on the contrary, it is more like a blooming red rose, beautiful and dazzling, but with thorns all over her body, she looks heroic .

At this moment, this beautiful woman smiled slightly, her bright red lips raised.

"You are here..."
