Chapter 4 Are You a Bandit?

Over the years, Heifeng Village, Heilong Village and Heihu Village have jointly occupied Sanlong Mountain, each occupying the mountains as kings. However, the two Heilong Villages have different styles of conduct than Heifeng Village. They are doing traditional bandit business. They either robbed families or kidnapped money every day, which is not ashamed of Fan Xiaodao. Crossing the line happens from time to time, and Fan Xiaodao has caused them many troubles.

In terms of fame, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu are bigger than Heifeng Village on Shandong Road, and the two mountain villages have many people and strong power. However, facing Fan Xiaodao's Heifeng Village, they have no temper and can do anything. These people are too good at fighting, especially Yang Qing, the second leader of the second in command, who has suffered a lot in recent years.

Once, a sow from Heifeng Village ran to Heilong Village and was caught by his brothers. Yang Qing had a very clear face and fought in their village. In the end, he not only obediently sent the sow back, but also raised three boars to Heifeng Village, which was called "marriage". This incident was very rumored in Sanlong Mountain, making Heilong Mountain very embarrassed.

I thought they were going to trouble Fan Xiaodao.

But Zhang Long and Zhao Hu were full of red faces, and came to Fan Xiaodao and bowed, "Boss Fan Xiaozhai, we have been together for many years and are considered fellow villagers. When I heard that you were going to the capital, my brother came to see you off. There was nothing valuable in the mountains. We raised 500 yuan in cash and just bought tea for the little village leader on the way. If you were to have a little bit of gratitude, please accept it with a smile."

Fan Xiaodaoqi said: "There are many conflicts in our three villages, so you have to give me money. What's the reason for this?"

Zhang Long smiled and said, "The counterfeit business has not been easy in the past two years. Heilong Village and Heihu Village can survive until now. I have to thank the little village leader for not killing him. For this reason, I specially prepared a program for the little village leader." He waved his hand, "Brothers, get started!"

Several minions behind him beat gongs and drums and suona, and sent the little plague god away.

Fan Xiaodao smiled and said, "When I become rich, I will definitely come back in the future to invite everyone to drink!"

Zhang Long and Zhao Hu waved their hands repeatedly, "How can you afford to take care of this? When the small village leader becomes prosperous, please be sure to forget my two brothers!"

Fan Xiaodao laughed loudly and said loudly: "Goodbye!"

After saying that, he rode a donkey with Li Qingniu and set out on the road to the capital.

...

Fan Xiaodao left Sanlong Mountain like a wild horse. He went out for the first time in 20 years and traveled all the way. Every time he went, he would inquire about local scenic spots and stayed for a few days. From Qingzhou Prefecture to Beijing, the original January itinerary was for nearly two months.

The two of them didn't bring much silver. Li Qingniu was not good at managing finances, and Fan Xiaodao spent money and was very generous. When he arrived in the capital, he had spent very little money. Fortunately, he was used to it in the mountains, had eaten big fish and meat, and tasted pickled vegetables and steamed buns, so he was not very concerned about life.

They came to the capital to find the Pure Land Pill that Song Jingang obtained with his life.

But this is the capital city, not the Heifeng Village. The capital city is so big that it is far beyond Fan Xiaodao's imagination. It costs money to eat, clothing, housing, transportation, walking, sitting and lying down. On the third day of arriving in the capital, they spent all their money and were driven out by the inn owner. The most basic livelihood became a problem.

They decided to fight quickly.

Liushemen was originally a case investigation agency for Shuntian Prefecture. After the battle between good and evil twenty years ago, the court was afraid of the forces of the rivers and lakes, and implemented the new policy of reform of the rivers and lakes, established the Jianghu Department, and included it under the Six Gates, and Liushemen were also merged under the Ministry of Justice.

After all the efforts, the two finally found six doors in a corner of the Eight Great Hutongs.

The two of them were stunned.

This gray brick and green tiles yamen covers an area of ​​100 acres, which is more than twice as big as their previous map.

After asking passers-by, I found out that two years ago, there was a fire in the Eight Great Hutongs. The original yamen turned into ashes in the fire. Now, the six doors have requisitioned the surrounding houses and rebuilt them on the basis of the old site. In other words, the map in Fan Xiaodao's hand is completely useless.

Fan Xiaodao is a bandit. If it were an ordinary place, they would break in and break in and take the opportunity to find the Pure Land Pill. But this is the capital. First, there is insufficient staff, second, there is no familiarity with the place, and Liushuomen are also a yamen specializing in robbing thieves. If they fail, they might move in directly.

Li Qingniu said: "Little village master, don't you have a limited edition night clothes? Why don't we try it tonight?"

Fan Xiaodao smiled and scolded: "That guy Zhang Sanmazi is wearing this luminous version of night-mounted clothes. If he really wears it, what's the difference between me and the words on his forehead that I am a bandit? In such a huge yamen, there are always traces to follow. I have to find an insider to find out the news."

"Or what if you can dig the tunnel?" Li Qingniu said, "As long as you can find a shovel and use the small village master's extraordinary martial arts, you can dig all the underground of the six gates in less than three or five years. If you want to find that treasure, will it be impossible to capture it?"

"Then what are you doing?"

Li Qingniu said: "I am responsible for giving advice and I will cheer you on!"

Fan Xiaodao slapped Li Qingniu on the forehead, "Before you have an idea next time, please use your brain first. Don't you think about it. Do we still have money to buy a shovel?" Indeed, the two of them are now penniless, and in the morning they were kicked out of the inn because of arrears of room fees, and even three meals became a problem.

"It seems that this matter must be discussed for a long time."

Li Qingniu said: "This is not OK, that is not OK. Otherwise, you might as well get into the six doors and act according to the opportunity!"

Fan Xiaodao widened his eyes, "We are doing business as a bandit. With such a noble profession, how can we get involved with the people in the government? What's more, Liusanmen are our mortal enemies. If our identity is accidentally exposed, we will be in prison for the rest of our lives!"

"The capital is so big, we are outsiders. If you don't say it, I won't say it, who knows?"

Fan Xiaodao thought about it and it was indeed a way to get into the Six Doors, but after all, it was the government, and it was not something that could be entered by just entering. What's more, the court's household registration system is very strict now, and the two of them were forged by Hu Sandao. Once they were investigated in depth, it would inevitably be exposed. Now that the Six Doors are rebuilt, it would be tantamount to finding the place where Tibetan medicine was built back then. If you don't have a suitable identity to cover it, it would be difficult to move forward to the next step.

The two of them wandered around the door of the Six Gate, which aroused the idea of ​​the official officer, "What are you looking at? This is the case-handling yamen. Let's take you in!"

It seems that you have to live in the capital first.

But the problem is that they had already spent all their last penny and had no place to spend three meals. When the two of them had decided, they had to make some money first. Li Qingniu said, "There are so many high-ranking officials and rich people in the capital, I'll go find out the news now. Let's do a vote tonight!"

Fan Xiaodao said: "Robbery?"

"After all, you are the leader of the village. This is the capital. Robbery is a loss of identity. I think kidnapping is more suitable for us. Otherwise, let's see if there are no married little princesses or princesses in the capital, tie one up and ask for ransom. Girls pay attention to reputation. If this happens, they don't want to make a statement, and they won't pay the money obediently?"

Fan Xiaodao stared at Li Qingniu with surprise, "When you were robbing, how far you had you been hiding as far as you could, how could you come to the capital and become more courageous?"

Li Qingniu said solemnly: "Being forced by life, before leaving, the second boss told me to take good care of you and support you. I made an oath in front of the old village master's tablet."

"You are not supporting me, you are clearly typing me! You are still a little princess, little princess, you can think of it!" However, after thinking about it, it would be nice to find a few young masters who are dominating the market and find ways to block the corner and borrow some silver from him.

At this time, a man in blue, carrying a long sword on his waist, passed by the two of them.

Seeing that he was cold-looking, gorgeous in clothes, and looked like he was thousands of miles away, Fan Xiaodao exchanged glances with Li Qingniu, and it was him! The two followed him, and the man in green clothes walked through two streets, came to a tavern, found a seat by the window, and sat down.

Fan Xiaodao decided to get close to him first and sat opposite him.

The man in blue frowned and frowned, but he didn't say anything.

When the boss saw the man, he walked over, "Captain Zhao, have time today, come to our place for dinner?"

Fan Xiaodao said in surprise: "Head captain?"

The boss lady smiled and said, "This is one of the two major arresters of the six gates of the capital today. Captain Zhao Xingzhao. Two years ago, our head of the family was wrongly accused of entering the prison. He personally arrested the murderer and helped us clear the charges. He is the benefactor in our store!"

"What did you tell him about this?"

"Captain Zhao, or the third brother?"

Zhao Xing nodded. Soon, the boss's wife served three dishes, a plate of vinegar fish, Dongpo pork, fried bamboo shoots, and a pot of wine. Zhao Xing ate calmly. He ate very carefully and chewed every bite slowly. Fan Xiaodao sat opposite him in embarrassment. After knowing Zhao Xing's identity as a constable, he had given up the idea of ​​robbing. He was hungry at the moment, so he asked, "Can you invite me to drink?"

"Can!"

Fan Xiao asked again: "Can you invite me to a meal?"

"Can!"

"Can you lend me one hundred taels of silver?"

"Can!"

Fan Xiaodao was happy. Is this business so easy now?

Zhao Xing said again, "But you have to pay for this meal first."

"Why?"

Zhao Xing said: "You ask me for wine, food, and borrow money. Did I ask you why?"

Fan Xiaodao was speechless.

Zhao Xing drank a glass of wine and said slowly: "I heard that you should be from Qingzhou Prefecture. Your shoes are worn and worn. You should have traveled a long distance. Not long after you arrived in the capital recently, there was a smell of sweat pills on your back. It was a stir-frying method north of the Yellow River. The first time you and your accomplices saw me was the money bag on my waist. If you guessed correctly, you should be bandits. There are six groups of bandits in Qingzhou Prefecture. Which group are you from? Heilongzhai or Heihu Village? What are you doing when you come to the capital?"
