Do you have the strength to force me to join the Liangshan bandits?

Chapter 166 Song Jiang: Where are my trusted confidants? [4th update, please subscribe]

Seven days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Shi Xiu also returned and said that he had left Huangfu Duan in Longtou City.

Cai Fu believed in Shi Wengong and Yue Fei, especially Yue Fei, who believed that there must be a way to keep Huangfu Duan.

After a week of peace, Cai Fu spent his days drinking and sparring with his brothers, practicing his own skills, and teaching his disciples. With a regular routine, life became simple.

"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding..."

On this day, Cai Fu brandished his ghost-head saber and fought fiercely with Wu Song, the two locked in a fierce battle with neither gaining the upper hand.

Of course, Cai Fu knew that Wu Song had let him off easy.

But it doesn't matter, just consider it Wu Song giving him some pointers.

He sparred with Lu Junyi, Lu Zhishen, Guan Sheng, and Wu Song every day. How could he not improve his skills?
"Shezha!"

An Daoquan, carrying a medicine box, strolled past from the side.

Because Wu Song was so strong, Cai Fu alternated between using the "Rolling Dragon Saber Technique" and the "Mutual Destruction Saber Technique".

After he had used all his moves once, some even several times, Wu Song finally revealed an opening.

When Cai Fu rushed in, Wu Song jumped out of the circle:
"Brother's swordsmanship has reached a high level of mastery! Congratulations!"

Wu Song sheathed his snowflake-patterned iron ring knife and bowed to Cai Fu.

"I admire you!"

Since there was no one else around, Cai Fu blushed.
"Sixth brother, please stop making fun of your elder brother!"

Wu Song quickly denied it: "Brother, please don't misunderstand. I had no intention of mocking you!"

"If I'm not mistaken, you've been learning these two sword techniques for no more than half a year, right?"
All martial arts in the world are divided into six realms.

"From low to high, they are: Beginner, Proficient, Thorough Understanding, Mastery, Pinnacle, and Divine Skill."

"My elder brother mastered both sword techniques in just six months, truly possessing exceptional talent!"

You finally figured it out?

Cai Fu feigned surprise: "Sixth Brother, do you perhaps recognize these two sword techniques of mine?"

"Why don't you fight?"

An Daoquan, carrying his medicine box, strolled past from the side.

"Big brother, please look!"

After An Daoquan passed by, Wu Song drew his twin swords and demonstrated the "Rolling Dragon Sword Technique" to Cai Fu.

Cai Fu's eyes widened: "Your swordsmanship..."

"Apart from the fact that it uses dual swords, its swordsmanship is similar to mine!"

"exactly!"

Wu Song then told Cai Fu his story:

"After I killed the tiger on Jingyang Ridge, the magistrate of Yanggu County valued me and kept me in Yanggu County as a constable."

"The county magistrate sent his underlings to Tokyo to deliver tiger bone ointment to his mentor, who had already become a high-ranking official..."

"Therefore, I met a strange person in Tokyo."

"That extraordinary person said that although I have talent and superhuman strength, my martial arts skills are lacking."

He then taught his younger brother two fist and foot techniques, called "Jade Ring Step" and "Mandarin Duck Kick".

"He also passed on a set of 'Rolling Dragon Saber Technique' to his younger brother, which is probably one of the two sets of saber techniques of the elder brother."

"I see!"

Cai Fu suddenly realized: "Sixth Brother, what is the name of that extraordinary person you mentioned?"

Wu Song: "Because I was old and had to return to Yanggu County, I didn't have much time to learn martial arts from him, so he accepted me as a disciple."

"He was known in the martial arts world as 'Iron-Armed Hero of Shaanxi'..."

Cai Fu: "Mr. Zhou?"

"Big brother really does recognize him..."

Wu Song was taken aback: "Since you've learned his swordsmanship, why don't you call him Master Zhou instead of Master?"

"It's a long story..."

Cai Fu pulled Wu Song to sit down on the trunk of the fallen tree and said:
"Blah blah blah... Sixth brother, to tell you the truth, I'm currently taking care of Old Master Zhou in Longtou City!"

"If you want to see him, I'll arrange it for you!"

"most!"

Wu Song was overjoyed: "Brother, Longtou City is not far from Liangshan Marsh. I would like to pay my respects to our master as soon as possible!"

"Then let's do it today!"

Cai Fu made his decision right then and there, just then, An Daoquan strolled by carrying his medicine chest... "Miracle doctor!"

Cai Fu called out to An Daoquan, who turned around and pointed at himself:

"Brother called me?"

"Stop pretending!"

Cai Fu deliberately put on a stern face:
"These past two days, you've trampled a ditch right in front of my door!"

"We're all brothers, so feel free to speak your mind!"

An Daoquan chuckled and stepped forward: "Brother, do you remember? We promised Baoguang Rulai we'd rescue people..."

"I've been so busy lately, I really forgot."

Cai Fu slapped his forehead, wondering if the Southern Kingdom's royal uncle, King Fang Hou, was still alive.
"Thank you for the reminder, brother. I will escort you to Jiangnan now, and we can also pick up the people in Jiankang Prefecture."

An Daoquan breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you for your kindness, brother!"

Cai Fu had seen through him:
This guy doesn't care about Fang Hou's life or death; he only cares about Li Qiaonu!

An Daoquan then asked, "Brother, when can we set off? I'd like to prepare in advance."

Cai Fu smiled: "It's today."

"Thank you, brother!"

An Daoquan was so moved he almost cried:

My brother understands me!

An Daoquan ran off, while Cai Fu and Wu Song exchanged a smile:
"Alright, Sixth Brother, you should pack up too."

Wu Song volunteered: "Brother, why don't we go to Longtou City first?"

"After I pay my respects to my master, I will accompany my elder brother on his journey to Jiangnan."

Cai Fu nodded: "Alright, we can go together and it won't delay the divine doctor from removing the golden mark on your face."

"By the time we return from Jiangnan, your golden seal may have been removed, and you may be able to dress as an ordinary person."

Wu Song: That would be best!

……

Loyalty Hall.

Song Jiang inexplicably had a feeling that he was being targeted by a thief.

"Brother Cai Fu, who do you want to borrow?"

Cai Fu: "'River Dragon' Li Jun".

Song Jiang waved his hands repeatedly: "Brother Li Jun won't do!"
"He needs to be stationed at the naval stronghold and can't leave for the time being!"

Cai Fu had already guessed that Song Jiang would not agree, so he changed his mind:

What about Zhang Shun, the "White Streak in the Waves"?

Song Jiang subconsciously exchanged a glance with Wu Yong:
"Brother Zhang Shun needs to train the navy, so I'm afraid he won't be able to leave either..."

Cai Fu's face darkened.
"Brother Song Gongming is making excuses, saying this won't work and that won't work!"
"Could it be that you don't consider Cai Fu a brother?"

Ah this...

Song Jiang's face turned green under Cai Fu's aggressive gaze:

unacceptable!

How dare he threaten me!

Where are my trusted confidants?

broken!

Song Jiang suddenly realized that he had become careless after enjoying two good days, and that Hua Rong and Qin Ming were not by his side!

Now, besides Wu Yong, he only has his two useless disciples, Kong Ming and Kong Liang, serving him...

However, Cai Fu was surrounded by three burly men, Lu Zhishen on his left and Wu Erlang on his right, all glaring at him menacingly!

Song Jiang decisively admitted defeat:
“If the three Ruan brothers could share the burden more, it wouldn’t be impossible for the Zhang brothers to go with you…”

Cai Fu chuckled: "That's right, thank you for your kindness, Brother Song Gongming!"

Song Jiang: (_)
"We'll set off immediately, so there's no need for Brother Song Jiang to see us off!"

Cai Fu cupped his hands in a respectful gesture to Song Jiang:
"I'll take my leave now!"

Song Jiang waved with a forced smile:
"Have a safe journey, brother..."
