Water Margin: The opening scene involves assassinating Emperor Huizong of Song and forcibly taking L

The sounds of roosters crowing and dogs barking echoed through the air.

There were several barefoot men.

Tidying up the fishing nets by the fence.

Li Jun spotted a large man among them.

Her hair was styled in two buns, and she wore a simple cloth robe.

bare feet,

He looks somewhat familiar.

Li Jun thought it was too far to see clearly.

The man surnamed Suo approached again.

When they were about ten steps apart...

The burly man happened to turn around.

The two exchanged glances.

The burly man recognized Li Jun and immediately bowed down.

"Brother Li."

Li Jun quickly helped him up.

Looking at his face again,

However, it was Zhu Xiaoba, a disciple of his uncle, who was known as the Water-Dividing Rhinoceros.

He couldn't help but ask,

"Xiao Ba, how did you all move here?"

"Do you know where my uncle has gone?"

A trace of grief flashed across Zhu Xiaoba's face.

He sighed, "Brother Li, it's a long story."

"It's a rare treat to meet you today. Please come to my humble abode and I will explain in detail."

Seeing that there were many people here, Li Jun also said,

"it is good!"

Zhu Xiaoba instructed several firefighters,

Close the net properly.

He led Li Jun and the other man home.

The two arrived at Xiao Ba's house.

All I could see were three or five newly built thatched houses.

There are trees in front of the door and a fence around the house; the place is quite nice.

Xiao Ba asked the two to sit down.

His wife came out to pay her respects and then served him tea.

Li Jun exclaimed, "We're not honored guests!"

"What's the trouble? There's wine, so let's just bring it out and have some."

Xiao Ba then told his wife to go to the kitchen to kill a chicken.

I cooked a few more fresh fish.

A large barrel of homemade baijiu was poured out.

So they set up a table in the room.

Then a few more benches were moved.

Place the barrel on the table.

Chicken and fish dishes were placed on the table.

Li Jun and the other man each occupied a table and sat down.

Xiao Ba said, "Brother Li, we're old brothers."

"You know I know, neither of us are civilized people,"

"Let yourself be joyful and carefree, without any restraint,"

"This bucket is placed on the table; when we're ready to drink,"

"Let's scoop it up ourselves, we must eat our fill today."

Li Jun walked all the way.

I was also a little thirsty.

After drinking two or three bowls of wine,

He couldn't help but say,

"Little Eight, where did my uncle go?"

Xiao Ba immediately burst into tears.

Wiping his eyes with one hand, he replied,

"Brother Li, if you mention my master,"

"He has long since passed away, and to this day..."

Chapter 1689 The Ma Brothers

Li Jun stood up and shouted.

"Really?"

"It's only been a year since we last met,"

"How can I not be heartbroken that we will never see each other again!"

Having said that, he placed one foot on the stool.

Press your hands firmly against the edge of the table.

He looked up without uttering a word.

Shi Bao, however, saw Xiao Ba's face filled with grief and indignation.

Something seemed amiss.

Patting Li Jun's arm,

"Brother, don't be sad yet,"

"And ask the little myna bird,"

How did the elderly person pass away?

Li Jun suddenly realized, "That's true."

"Little Eight, tell me."

He then sat down again.

He doesn't drink alcohol either.

All that could be heard was Zhu Xiaoba's account.

It turns out that Li Fu died last winter.

Around last year's Double Ninth Festival

Several days of strong winds and rain,

Boats cannot sail on the river.

People were stuck inside the house.

His apprentice, Qian Kun, was named Yu Gui.

The same applies to Zhu Xiaoba, the water-dividing rhinoceros.

He spends his days drinking to pass the time.

The weather cleared up that day.

Yu Gui was overjoyed.

Then he led the Huo family,

They took two boats to the river to conduct business.

They happened to run into a large official ship.

It's driving towards us from the opposite direction.

This is an official who has retired and returned to his hometown.

The boat was fully loaded with boxes and baskets.

It's very juicy and flavorful.

Yu Guiyin experienced several days of strong winds and rain.

I've never been to the river before.

Not a single fish were caught.

The smuggling of salt resulted in another loss.

I was suffering so much that I had nowhere to turn.

It's rare to run into genuine products today.

Send out a good lucky money.

Enough to cover several months' worth of food and clothing expenses.

How could I possibly miss this opportunity?

They didn't even ask him what kind of ship it was.

Just blow a whistle.

Grab the big ship,

They plundered and had a good meal.

They set sail and departed.

Not far from your destination,

Unexpectedly, a boat suddenly appeared and chased after them.

A person jumped out from the bow of the ship.

He claims to be Zhang Kui from Xiaogushan.

They claimed that the goods just now were genuine.

He drove all the way here.

The valuables on the ship should be divided equally between the two parties.

Yu Gui was naturally unwilling to agree at that moment.

Back to the story of trading on the river,

Each takes a chance.

Whoever finds it owns it; it cannot be divided equally.

Zhang Kuiqiang wanted to take half.
