Chapter 132 There’s a Transvestite on the Westbound Road

At night, Scimitar Xiaoliu, Datou, and Tieniu hurriedly gathered in Dong'er's room. While Dong'er poured tea for them, he asked nervously: "Three brothers, thank you for your hard work. We have been asking around for another day. Is there any brother Ding?" news?"

Scimitar Xiaoliu said: "Xiaoliu went to the government office and took a look. The government has not posted a wanted notice yet, but in my opinion, they must be secretly arresting the eldest brother. Since the eldest brother killed the couple, he has a heavy burden on his body. With two murder cases, I'm afraid they will never come looking for us in the city."

Tieniu also said: "I went to the countryside to visit and couldn't find any news about my eldest brother. Hey, I really didn't expect that such a gentle man as my eldest brother would have the courage to do such a big thing. He killed two people with one blow. I'm happy. I'm really happy. , this shouting of “big brother” is not unfair.”

Datou said with a sad face: "If my brother kills someone, he must escape. Now I don't know if he has still gone to Guangyuan. Where can we find him?"

Scimitar Xiaoliu glared and said: "It would be best if brother goes to Guangyuan. If not, it doesn't matter. You are the only one who talks the most."

Datou said humbly: "I don't talk much, I only said one sentence."

Scimitar Xiaoliu spat: "One sentence is too much!"

After he finished training Datou, he comforted Luo Donger and said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, brothers have promised us a thousand dollars. No matter what, we will help you find your eldest brother. We will set off early tomorrow morning to go to Guangyuan to look for your eldest brother. If your eldest brother is not there, we will do it regardless of the ends of the world." We must find him."

He grabbed the tea cup and took a sip of crude tea, then said to Datou and Tieniu: "I have already told dad that I am not a young man, and I have no future in hanging around at home all day long. I want to go out and have some adventures. Dad is very happy. , praised me without words, gave me money, and asked me to behave like a good person and come back in glory. Grandma, this family only has an only son, and they treat that son like a baby, holding it in their hands for fear of falling. , I kept it in my mouth for fear of melting, but I was fine. As soon as I said that I was no longer eating at home, my father's illness was almost 80% better immediately. It was really fucking unpleasant to see. If you don't say it anymore, you guys should go back. Get ready, so we can accompany my sister-in-law on the road tomorrow morning."

Tieniu said loudly: "We don't have a room, nor a ridge of land. One of us is full, and the whole family is not hungry. What can we prepare? Sister-in-law, please have a rest. We will go back and sleep on our own. Tomorrow morning, we will Walk!"

…

On Jiguan Ridge, Yang Hao paid homage to his mother, and slowly burned the divorce letter written in blood in front of Luo Dong'er's tomb next to her grave, and said softly: "Dong'er, this is the divorce letter written by the Dong family for you. Shu, from now on, you are no longer the daughter-in-law of the Dong family. You can accompany me openly without fear of anyone gossiping about us. I will marry you to be my wife, and you will marry me to be your official. we……"

Tears couldn't help but burst out. Yang Hao hurriedly turned his head to wipe away the tears: "Madam, my husband is going to leave you for a while and come back to find a career. You accompany my mother and wait for me here. You like this place. You must be much happier here than at Dong's house. I really want to hear you sing a song to me in person, just sing "Song of the Four Seasons at Midnight". That day, I actually heard your singing. It's very nice, really, the most beautiful sound I've ever heard..."

After talking for a long time, Yang Hao got up from the two tombs and slowly walked up to the top of the mountain. There was a line of light in the distance, very dim, like the looming flames of burning paper on his mother's grave. That was the direction of Dingjiazhuang.

After killing Liu Shiyi and Dong Li, Yang Hao expected that many people would arrest him, whether it was the Ding family, the Li family, the Liu family, or the government, so during the past two days he only hid in the mountains and picked some mountain fruits.

, dug some plant tubers to wrap in his belly, and sneaked into the village at night to find out about the smelly pig.

He waited for three days, but the whereabouts of Xi Zhu'er were still unknown. Yang Hao knew that Brother Daliang had been catching loaches in the puddles since he was a child. He was not good at water, but at least he couldn't drown him if he fell into the water. However, he was seriously injured at the time.

, he slipped and fell into the water while running wildly. It was hard to imagine that he could survive in such a situation. If he was really alive, he would not not come back because his brother was still here. Thinking of this, Yang Hao felt sad again.

It's time to go, everything here is over, it's time for me to go.

There are still three sworn brothers in Bazhou City, but he doesn't dare to go. His arrest document must have been posted on the city wall. Now he is a murderer and the government is looking for him. He can't cause trouble for his brothers anymore.

They should already know what happened to them and would understand him leaving without saying goodbye.

Yang Hao walked along the ridge into the distance. When he reached the end of the ridge, he walked down the mountain and saw the endless plain. Yang Hao stopped and looked back in the direction of Dingjiazhuang. It was as dark as ink and there was no light in sight.

"During these days in Bazhou, I only wanted to go to Guangyuan, just to settle down there and have a quiet harbor of my own. Now, I am going, in order to be able to return to Guangyuan one day.

Bazhou! Now, I am just a little ant. When I come back, I want you all to become ants under my feet!"

Yang Hao took one last look at the dark place, tightened his belt, and strode down the hillside.

The sky was full of stars, and the sky seemed higher and more distant. The mountain wind was fierce, raising his hair. Walking down the mountain, there was an endless wilderness. In the night, it was difficult to distinguish everything around him. He could only recognize the direction he was walking. Heaven and earth

He seemed to be the only one in the world, and he looked so small, but the world seemed to be opened to him alone, and Yang Hao's figure slowly disappeared into the night...

There is a small town at the foot of Niushou Mountain. The town is not big, but because it is located at the transportation hub between north, south, and east, so although it is mountainous and hilly, it is not suitable for farming. However, it is home to inns, taverns, teahouses, brothels, car dealerships, and other service industries.

But it made this place more prosperous, with more merchants traveling from north to south, east to west.

From here you can cross the river to go south, and follow the river west to reach Guangyuan. Yang Hao went south and then west, deliberately taking a circuitous route, because he was afraid that the government and the Ding family, Dong and Li families would block the westward route, so he deliberately

Made a detour.

For safety reasons along the way, Yang Hao did not take the main road. He often took mountain trails or walked through the wilderness. When he arrived at this town, he was already in ragged clothes and unkempt. He looked like a beggar. In fact, he did nothing but pick wild things along the way.

He eats fruits, hunts some game, and occasionally begs for some food from farmers in small villages. Now he is just a beggar.

Along the way, although Yang Hao deliberately avoided important roads, he still felt that there were checkpoints in many villages along the way. There were government inspections leading the people to inspect the travelers. At first, Yang Hao thought they were arresting him, a murderer, but later he heard

When the traveling business travelers talked about it, they learned that His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty personally went on a campaign against the Northern Han Dynasty. The army had already arrived at the capital of the Northern Han Dynasty. Now, both the westward and southbound roads were blocked by local checkpoints to prevent spies from the Northern Kingdom.

Under such circumstances, Yang Hao's journey became even more difficult. In fact, he had a token on him, which was a token for entering and leaving the Cheng Mansion. Cheng Shixiong governed the family with military law, and this token was actually a token for entering the Guangyuan Military Camp. Even with this token,

It doesn't mean that he can enter and exit any place in the Guangyuan military camp at will, but it shows Cheng Shixiong's favor for him. If he is not a close relative and confidant, he will not easily give this belt to him.

With this token, he could have easily passed through the checkpoints, but he always thought that he had been arrested and wanted by the government. He looked like this now, and he was alone. Once he took out the token, he would easily trigger a patrol.

They were suspicious that if the inspectors had his shadow in their hands, they would not be able to escape even if they wanted to. For safety reasons, he simply pretended to be a beggar and went there.

He bypassed the checkpoint, climbed over a hillside, passed through the dense forest, and turned into the town. Coming in from his direction, he first saw the back gable of a house, and then he walked in close to the gable, and there was a narrow alley until the end.

Then it suddenly became clear, and a prosperous market appeared in a small town.

Yang Hao turned into Fangshi and was thinking about how to get something to wrap his belly before continuing westward. Suddenly he saw an old monk walking in front of him. This old monk was dressed in gray robes and hemp shoes. The sun shone on his shining bald head.

The old monk is really radiant and has a majestic appearance. This old monk has white eyebrows and white beard, and his face is red. There is no wrinkle on his face. For some reason, Yang Hao looks vaguely familiar to his features, but if he thinks about it carefully, no matter what

He had never seen such a monk in ancient times or modern times.

At this moment, the old monk walked not far in front of Yang Hao and saw an old lady holding the hand of her little grandson who was shopping and playing. He immediately loudly announced the Buddha's name like a bell: "Amitabha, old benefactor, the poor monk has opened his seal."

I came from Daxiangguo Temple in Fufu and passed by this place to make a good relationship with the old benefactor. I, the Buddha, am merciful and wish the old benefactor many blessings and long life. I also wish the young benefactor a bright future and great wealth."

At that time, no matter whether it was the Song Dynasty, the Khitan, or the surrounding tribes, most people believed in Buddhism. When they saw this immortal old monk with white eyebrows and white beard asking for alms, and his words were so auspicious, the old lady was flattered and hurriedly

He returned the gift and apologized, then took out a few pennies and presented them to the old monk respectfully. The old monk bowed his head and thanked him, said some auspicious words, and then left.

As soon as Yang Hao saw this, he suddenly saw two patrol inspectors walking slowly in front of him with their sabers in hand. Yang Hao was secretly surprised when he saw this. He quickly turned around and turned into an alley. At this time, several gangsters were also walking towards him.

The old monk was surprised when he saw him. He quickly rubbed oil on his soles and turned into the alley. The gangsters saw his monk's robe from a distance and immediately shouted: "Stop, don't go."

It didn't matter that they didn't shout, but it shocked Yang Hao, who had a secret in his heart. He had already turned into the alley, but he didn't know who was shouting and who was shouting. Originally, he turned into the alley and walked calmly.

Hearing "stop", he immediately started running. Who would have thought that just after running more than ten feet, he heard the sound of "huh" in the wind in his clothes, and with a flash of gray in the corner of his eye, the old monk walked away as fast as flying.

Yang Hao was startled. This old monk looked like he was in his eighties. He had such nimble skills. He turned around and saw four young men chasing towards the alley, not far behind them.

Two more patrolmen pressed their knives with one hand and held their soap gauze hats with the other and chased after him.

Yang Hao only knew that the four young men were strong men and were driven by the two policemen behind him. At this time, he didn't know whether they were arresting the old monk or himself. In any case, he would not be able to see the light, so he would not run away at this time.

If I ran away, it would be impossible to meet them anyway, so I gritted my teeth and started running wildly.

The two patrolmen saw four people chasing a monk, so they chased them down. Unexpectedly, they aroused Yang Hao's misunderstanding. Yang Hao walked all the way, feeling sleepy and hungry. He ran through two alleys and was already there.

He was overtaken by the four gangsters. Yang Hao turned around and saw that the two patrolmen had disappeared. The four gangsters were not chasing him, so he felt relieved and quickly turned into another alley. Who would have thought that he had just

When he turned the corner, he saw a man running towards him with his big sleeves flying, like a big bird, he bumped into his arms.

Yang Hao let out an ouch, and he and the man fell into a pair of rolling gourds. The impact was so hard that both of them were a little dizzy. It took a long time to wake up. Yang Hao covered his chest and looked at the reckless move.

The intruder was stunned when he saw the man. It turned out that this man was the old monk who had just escaped with him. At this time, the old monk's beautiful chest-length beard was gone, and only half of his two white eyebrows were left.

Looking at his features again, it turned out to be Bi Su, the little thief in Qingshui Town who stole official seals. Yang Hao couldn't help shouting: "It's you!"

Only then did the old monk see clearly that the unkempt little beggar in front of him was the manager Ding who made him pretend to be a monk until today, and he also cried out: "Is it you?"

After the two of them finished speaking, they asked in unison: "Why are you like this?"

After saying this, both of them were stunned again.

Under the setting sun, a monk and a beggar squatted in a corner of the town.

Yang Hao briefly told him his experience, and said with a wry smile: "Life is unpredictable, and now I really understand. If we met you on a normal day, maybe I would arrest you to see the official, but... now I have become

A person as unworthy as you. I can only tell you these things. There is nothing more strange about fate than this. By the way, how did you become a monk and still end up here?"

The two had a secret fight at Puji Temple outside Guangyuan City, but at that time Yang Hao did not recognize his identity from a distance, and Bisu did not know that the person who followed him and ruined his good deeds was Yang Hao.

Hao. Now Yang Hao, like him, has become a shady thief wanted by the government. He doesn't have to hide anything, so he spat and said: "The child has no mother, it's a long story. Alas! It's not like the last time he stole the official title and got himself into trouble."

In your hands, I escaped from Qingshui Town wearing only a pair of small clothes and was about to freeze to death in the cold weather, so I robbed a monk and pretended to be a monk.

I first went to Guangyuan and hung out for a while, and then I went to Bazhou, where I took on a business and earned a hundred dollars. I thought I would use the money to go to Kaifeng Mansion to be happy, but alas! When people are unlucky, they really can’t even drink cold water.

Sai Ya, you happened to come to this town, you happened to come to this town, and you met a thief, the thief who killed a thousand swords..."

Yang Hao said in surprise: "Aren't you just a thief, but you can still meet the thief who stole from you?"

Bi Su blushed and said: "I didn't expect that the old Taoist was actually a thief. We all stayed in the same inn. The old Taoist seemed to have been asleep for the rest of his life. He was half dead and weak. Who would have thought that he was actually a thief? Not only did this old thief steal my hard-earned money, but he also left a note in my bag to ridicule me, telling me to stop doing evil and to abandon evil and do good. He is a thief himself, but he wants me to stop doing so..."

The more Bisu talked, the angrier he became. When he said this, he became so angry that he jumped up and scolded: "You are a bully, you are a Taoist, but when Grandpa sees it, I will beat you until Grandpa Jun doesn't recognize you." Your face."

There happened to be two Taoist priests passing by. When they heard this, they stopped suddenly, raised their eyebrows, and yelled: "Little bald donkey, what did you say?"

Yang Hao quickly stood up and said, "Don't blame me, two Taoist priests. This monk is not talking about you."

The two Taoist priests saw that the monk and the beggar were together, and they didn't know the origin of this strange combination, so they snorted and walked away. Yang Hao pulled Bisu, pulled him back to the corner, and asked: "Then What was the reason for those rogues who were chasing you just now?"

Bi Su said with a sad face: "Don't mention it. My hard-earned money was stolen by that stupid old man. I really can't bear it. I wanted to go to Kaifeng to be happy, but now I'm here, what should I do? I thought. Go to Guan and make some money, and then earn back..."

Yang Hao suddenly said: "Did you lose?"

Bisu said: "People have their strengths, but they have their shortcomings. Although I am good at stealing, I am not good at gambling. It is normal to lose... It's just that those rogues are deceivers, and they deliberately deceive me. They tricked me into gambling, and then deliberately lent me money. When I owed them a lot of debt, these thieves and beggars who beat their backs, starved to death, and were frozen... Oh, I'm not scolding you, they actually asked me to pay with my butt. "

"Gah?"

"They... they want to sell me to Fengliao to pay off my debts."

Yang Hao knew that the so-called Fenggliao was a male prostitution house. Seeing that this bold thief who even dared to steal the county captain's official seal was now being squeezed into such a state by a few local snakes, he felt a little funny in his heart and said: "Why don't you leave here?" ,What are you still messing around with here?"

Bisu said with a sad face: "There are many checkpoints everywhere, and we must be careful to guard against spies. If you want to go south, you can't do it without a road to lead the officials. Who knows if you are a spy from the north?"

"Then go back to Bazhou."
