Water Margin: Hu Sanniang and I swapped clothes

"Look, my lord!"

On the bow of the boat, Song Jiang, full of vigor, surveyed the landscape:

"My Liangshan Marsh, spanning eight hundred li, can support one hundred thousand soldiers!"

"If you join the Liangshan outlaws, how dare the authorities investigate?"

Beside him stood a burly man with a head like a tiger, eyes like an eagle, arms like an ape, and a waist like a wolf.

He wore a crimson robe and had his left arm draped around his neck with a white silk sash.

It was none other than the head of the Li Family Village in Dulonggang—"Soaring Eagle" Li Ying!

Li Ying forced a smile and nodded, but tears were streaming down his face inside.

In fact, Li Ying was a very insightful person and had no desire to get involved in the messy waters of Liangshan Marsh.

In the original story, his ending was also happy.

After the suppression of Fang La, Li Ying was appointed as General of Martial Valor and Commander-in-Chief of Yunzhou Prefecture in Zhongshan Prefecture.

Six months after taking office, upon hearing of Chai Jin's retirement, he decisively claimed to be paralyzed and unable to serve as an official, and surrendered his official documents.

They returned to their hometown, Dulonggang, and became wealthy men in the area, both dying peacefully.

But who made Yang Xiong and Shi Xiu seek out "Ghost Face" Du Xing when Shi Qian was trapped in Zhujiazhuang?

Why should Yang Xiong be so kind to Du Xing, and why should he be so loyal to Du Xing?

Left with no other choice, Li Ying could only put on a show, attacking the Zhu Family Village and engaging in a fierce battle with Zhu Biao.

Zhu Biao was no match for him and turned his horse to flee. Li Ying gave chase but was wounded by a hidden arrow from Zhu Biao.

It's true that Zhu Biao couldn't beat Li Ying, but it's false that Li Ying was injured by Zhu Biao's sneak attack.

It should be known that Li Ying carries five throwing knives on his back, capable of striking a person from a hundred paces away, appearing and disappearing like a ghost.

He himself is an expert at using underhanded tactics, so how could he have fallen victim to Zhu Biao's underhanded attack?

Besides, when Zhu Biao escaped, Li Ying didn't even need to chase him; he could have just thrown a flying knife at him and done it.

Even if he was caught off guard and hit by a hidden arrow, he was only hit in the arm. Why make such a big fuss as to fall off his horse?

Furthermore, when Song Jiang's army arrived, Li Ying used the excuse of recuperating from his injuries to stay indoors, which clearly showed that he was just putting on an act, trying to avoid any karmic consequences and remain unscathed.

Unfortunately, it was some remnant of the Zhu Family Village who went to the prefect to file a false accusation against him, saying that he had colluded with the Liangshan bandits and destroyed the Zhu Family Village.

As a result, the prefect personally came to their door, tied them up, and took them to the yamen.

Li Ying originally planned to clarify things at the yamen, but unexpectedly, Song Jiang appeared halfway there and robbed him.

What Li Ying didn't expect was that one of Song Jiang's men, some damned bastard, killed the prefect.

With a concerned expression, Song Jiang said, "How about you come to Liangshan Marsh and hide for a while, sir?"

Li immediately became agitated: "That won't do! You killed the prefect, it has nothing to do with me!"

Song Jiang chuckled: "How can I argue with you like this in a court case?"

"If we go, we will inevitably be a burden to you."

"Since you are a high-ranking official and do not join the bandits, you should stay in the mountain stronghold for a few days."

"It's not too late to come down the mountain after you've found out everything is alright."

Then Li Ying and Du Xing had no choice but to accept their fate. The large army surrounded them and carried them all the way to Liangshan Marsh...

How can this be good?

As they approached Golden Beach, Li Ying was in a state of turmoil. He really didn't want to go to Liangshan!

Although Li Ying was insightful, he was not very calculating; otherwise, he wouldn't have thought that being shot by an arrow would allow him to escape unscathed.

He finally came up with a plan: to feign agreement to join Liangshan.

He would then claim he was going home to visit his family, but once home he would sell his possessions and flee, never to return to Shandong...

Flawless and impeccable!

Li Ying thought about it again and again and felt that this method was good, so he finally made up his mind and looked towards the Golden Beach.

At this moment, the Golden Beach was filled with the sounds of gongs and drums, the crackling of firecrackers, the waving of red flags, and a sea of ​​people!

"That scene, that spectacle, it was quite grand," Song Jiang said, turning back to Li Ying with a triumphant smile.

"My lord, King Chao has come to fetch us!"

Li Ying: (눈_눈)

Song Jiang was good at reading people's expressions and could naturally tell that Li Ying did not want to join Liangshan.

But it didn't matter. Song Jiang always managed to keep the hearts of those heroes who didn't want to join Liangshan, but he could keep their bodies.

With a cold smile on his lips, Song Jiang looked at Jinshatan again, when he suddenly heard someone smacking their lips behind him.

Why am I getting hungry just looking at this?

Song Jiang turned around and saw a short, ugly man drooling with a lewd expression.

This short, ugly man was none other than "Dwarf Tiger" Wang Ying.

He stared lustfully at Hu Sanniang, who stood out from the crowd on the golden sand beach, his small eyes unblinking.

Song Jiang: "Brother, are your eyes dry?"

Wang Ai Hu: "No way! No way!"

Song Jiang: "Do you remember what I reminded you of?"

Wang Ai Hu: "I remember, I remember!"

He readily agreed, but Wang Ai Hu's lecherous little eyes seemed glued to Hu San Niang.

Song Jiang shook his head helplessly: This fellow will die on a woman's belly sooner or later!

At the same time, Hu Sanniang on Jinsha Beach felt a pair of lustful eyes staring at her.

Whether it was a woman's sixth sense or not, Hu Sanniang looked up and saw Wang Ai Hu with a lewd look on his face.

"snort!"

Hu Sanniang's exquisitely beautiful face immediately fell:

"Big brother, second brother, have you seen that guy?"

"Which one?"

Yang Xiong was completely bewildered, but Shi Xiu, the "expert at catching adulterers," immediately spotted Wang Ai Hu:

"Third Sister, are you talking about that scoundrel who spoke rudely to you and almost got killed by you?"

ha?

Hu Sanniang hadn't expected there to be more to the story, but after glancing at Wang Ai Hu, she also felt an urge to chop him down.

This guy looks like a lecherous old man!

"So it was that guy!"

Reminded by Shi Xiuyi, Yang Xiong also noticed:

"Third Sister, that Wang Ai Hu is Song Jiang's confidant!"

"Although he apologized to you last time, I think this guy is incredibly lecherous, so you still need to be careful!"

Ok?

Hu Sanniang frowned slightly:

Yang Xiong's words seemed to be a reminder to be more careful, yet also a hint to avoid acting impulsively...

My brother is really afraid I'll chop Wang Ai Hu up!

No, am I that ruthless?

So, what kind of ghost is that thing that possessed me?

……

Hu Cheng? Hu Sanniang?

Li Ying also saw the Hu siblings on Jinsha Beach and couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness, realizing they were both fellow sufferers in this world.

Were they also dragged into this?

Having racked his brains to come up with a plan, he suddenly had a new idea when he saw the Hu siblings:

They were all from the same hometown of Dulonggang. If they joined forces with the Hu siblings, they might be able to escape Liangshan Marsh more easily!

After the large ship docked, the first thing Li Ying did upon stepping onto the golden sand beach was to wink at Hu Sanniang:

Do you understand?

At the same time, Chao Gai and Song Jiang clasped hands tightly together:

"Brother, you're back!"

"elder brother!"

Song Jiang nodded vigorously, his expression filled with deep emotion:

"I have fulfilled my mission!"

I knew I was overthinking it!

Chao Gai was moved by Song Jiang's overwhelming sincerity:

How could my good brother Song Jiang sideline me?

"Brothers, I have prepared a banquet to welcome you and wash away the dust of your journey!"

Chao Gai said enthusiastically:

"Let's drink until we drop to our hearts' content!"
