Chapter 252

?? Jiaxing is located in the south of the Yangtze River, with dense rivers and lakes. Every autumn, the lotus leaves are in ruins and the lotus seeds are full. The girls in the blooming season are shaking the boat, walking through the lotus leaves, singing the lyrics and music of the major poets in the Song Dynasty, and picking the mature lotus pods at the same time. It is really an incredible beauty.

Huang Chao was sitting by the pond, half-closed his eyes, listening to the singing of the girl in the lake, leaning back on the recliner, looking very relaxed. Two strong, muscular Khans stood behind him, giving him an air of not getting close to strangers.

He was well-dressed, and he looked like a rich man at first glance, while the two servants were dressed in bunt outfits, and they could tell from their standing posture that they possessed excellent martial arts. Such a combination of either being rich or expensive is often something people in the Jianghu don't want to provoke. Huang Chao sat here, causing many passing Jianghu people to come and go in a hurry.

"The lyrics of this era, every capital is a great work." Huang Chao has mastered a lot of lyrics singing in the Song Dynasty for several years. He holds a fishing rod in one hand and beats the rhythm with the singing of the lotus picking women with the other hand. Traveling through the Song Dynasty is indeed very good.

Not long after, the singing gradually became louder, a small boat docked from the lake, and five women got off the boat. The two, aged sixteen or seventeen, gave Huang Chao a blessing and said softly, "I've seen Mr. Yang."

Huang Chao chuckled and said, "Hi, you guys. I've had a good harvest today." The two women lowered their heads and smiled, and said softly, "Thanks to my lord, the little girl will leave."

At this time, Cheng Zhu's Confucianism was flourishing, and many restrictions were imposed on the communication between young men and women. Many things that are normal in later generations have become outrageous here. Only people in the Jianghu are not too constrained by ethics, and it is precisely because of this that people in the Jianghu have been drifting outside the mainstream.

Seeing the two women leave in a panic, Huang Chao couldn't help cursing inwardly: "Corrupt Confucianism is ruining the country! It's useless, greedy and ignorant, it will only cause trouble for the people!" As for the two women, they are both victims. Of course not to blame.

There was a woman who was about the same age as the first two, but she didn't walk away. She carried a bag of lotus pods, walked lightly to Huang Chao's side, and said politely, "My lord!" Then she took out a stripped lotus pod and put the lotus seeds in it. Huang Chao's hands.

"Thank you, Sister Chuntao."

This woman is the maid of Huang Chao's family, her name is Huan Chuntao, and she has three sisters, namely Xia He, Qiu Ju and Dong Mei. They usually serve Mu Nianci and occasionally take care of Huang Chao.

At this time, Huang Chao was only a boy in his teens, and the two younger girls were both nine years old, about the same age as Huang Chao. One of the girls took a lotus pod, threw it at Huang Chao with a playful smile, and shouted, "Yang Guo, you slob, you even asked Sister Chuntao to peel the lotus seeds for you!"

The quieter girl beside her held her back and said with a smile: "Cousin, don't be rude to Brother Yang."

Another girl turns around to scratch her itch,

His eyes were full of teasing: "Why do you care about him so much?" After speaking, he would slip up and blushed first.

Chuntao giggled, Huang Chao kept his face calm, but felt quite helpless in his heart: "My charm can affect even a nine-year-old girl!"

These two girls are cousins ​​who live in nearby Lujiazhuang. The elder sister is Cheng Ying and the younger sister is Lu Wushuang. They are the characters in The Legend of Condor Heroes. Huang Chao's family moved to Jiaxing and gradually became rich. They built a village as usual, recruited refugees, and became a big local family. They lived in the same place as Lujiazhuang, and had contacts on weekdays, so they got to know the pair of sisters.

Huang Chao got up, and the servants behind him immediately cleaned up the venue. He said to Cheng Ying and the others: "Come on, go to my house and eat the new cakes."

Cheng Ying showed emotion, and wanted to politely refuse, but Lu Wushuang clapped his hands and said, "Okay, thank you Brother Yang! Cousin, let's go, anyway, every time you refuse is useless."

A few people left together, and after a short walk, Lu Wushuang pointed to an old man by the side of the road and said, "Look! There's a strange man there! He's so old, and he still wears a child's bib!"

Huang Chao had noticed this crazy old man a long time ago, and said after hearing the words: "Don't get close, be careful that he's crazy!"

"This person is Wu Santong?" This thought flashed in Huang Chao's mind. Because of his spiritual breakthrough, he had a good memory, and he immediately remembered the plot of the God Eagle after hundreds of years, "No, Lujiazhuang will be destroyed today!"

With a stretch of his right hand, he snatched the lotus pod from Lu Wu's hands, and said, "Don't hit the old man, I'll eat this."

Lu Wushuang pouted mischievously: "You're so stingy." Cheng Ying looked at the old man, saw that his hair was gray, his clothes were tattered, and his expression was dull, so he couldn't help feeling sympathetic: "This old man is very pitiful."

She wanted to go forward, but Huang Chao grabbed her arm: "You don't have to go there. Ah Dan, give him some snacks and a lot of money."

A servant behind him responded, took out something and handed it to the old man. His name is Yang Dan, and he is the head of the eight guardians in Yangjiazhuang. They are named after "Danbo Mingzhi, Tranquility and Far-reaching", and they all follow the owner's surname.

Yang Dan went up to hand the things to the old man. Wu Santong was in a daze, but he was definitely not a beggar. He suddenly opened his eyes and scolded Yang Dan viciously: "You little boy! You tricked A Yuan away, give it back to me!"

He knocked over Yang Dan's things with his hands, suddenly jumped up from the ground and stretched out his hands, grabbing Yang Dan's head like a mad tiger! Yang Dan retreated in a hurry, and punched the chest, forcing the old man to save him.

Although Wu Santong is insane, but he is powerful, now he regards Yang Dan as an enemy, he is merciless when he strikes, his two palms whistling, he is about to kill him.

Yang Dan was not an opponent at all, let alone being attacked by Wu Santong, he was hit several times in succession and spit out a mouthful of blood. Cheng Ying and Lu Wushuang's faces paled, and they couldn't even scream in their mouths. Cheng Ying was terrified, and put herself into it, thinking that she had been beaten to death by a lunatic!

"Brother Yang saved my life!" At this point, Cheng Ying raised her head quietly and gave Huang Chao a grateful look.

At this time, Yang Bo rushed forward with a thick wooden stick and shouted: "The thief don't hurt my brother!" He fought with Wu Santong, guarded the door tightly, and let Yang Dan escape.

Yang Dan breathed a sigh of relief, ran back and took his wooden stick, and turned to join the battlefield. The two of them had extraordinary physical strength, and the wooden stick was specially made to be very strong. a few sticks.

The two of them stood firm, but they were still at a disadvantage, because Wu Santong was quick in movement and strong in internal strength, it was by no means that they could win the battle after several years of strength training. At this time, Chuntao who was beside Huang Chao also yelled coquettishly, and brought up a short stick to join the battle group. She was agile and quick in moves, and hit Wu Santong several times at once, which caused several marks on his head and face to swell, but did not cause too much damage. harm.

Huang Chao held a fishing rod in his hand and swept the formation for the three of them. Wu Santong was confused, although his skills were high, he couldn't use delicate moves at this time, so he was tied with several of Huang Chao's servants. He knew how to "avoid danger", so he suddenly yelled, turned around and ran away, and was beaten by Yang Dan again when he arrived.
