Among the one hundred and eight generals in Liangshan in the story of Water Margin, only about 20 people, including Song Jiang, Lu Zhishen, and Lin Chong, are really well-known. Among them, the most widely known among them, and the one who has experienced the most brilliant story is naturally Shutianshangxing. Traveler Wu Song.
In fact, when Sun Tu had a little contact with Toutuo, he already had some suspicions that he was wreaking havoc in Mengzhou City, splattering Yuanyang Tower with blood, killing Wu Song's entire family, and then disguised himself as Toutuo and fled Wu Song. It's just that we haven't found any definite evidence yet, so we haven't pointed it out directly.
But after seeing the opponent's fierce killing method, especially the performance of killing Hu Mingzong with one move, and then revealing the golden seal on his face, Sun Tu was finally convinced that his judgment was good. Now that I have relaxed and drank some wine, I can reveal the other person's identity without thinking.
But this made Wu Song feel vigilant. At that time, he stood up and stepped back. At the same time, his uninjured right hand had already pulled out the sword with a cry, pointed at Sun Tu and said: "Who are you? ?" It seems that as long as he can't answer a sentence well, he will take action.
This reaction immediately frightened the people in the town who were drinking with him at the same table. They stood up to dodge and trembled. If we take action again, people like himself will be in danger. Wang Xi quickly persuaded him: "Guan Sun, this good man, what are you doing? Don't hurt the harmony just because of a small misunderstanding..."
Sun Tu had woken up at this time and knew that he was a little too casual. He was now a court official, which would inevitably make Wu Songcun, who was on the run after committing a serious crime of murder, wary. Therefore, before getting up, he held down Luda who wanted to react, and said urgently: "Brother Wu, don't be nervous. I have no ill intentions towards you. I also heard about your appearance and martial arts skills from my friends. I only recognized your identity when I saw you killing enemies before..." As he spoke, his mind was already racing. The organization came up with a rhetoric.
Seeing that he really had no intention of getting up and taking action, Wu Song felt a little relieved, but he did not put down the knife because of this, and his eyes were still staring at Sun Tu: "Oh? Then I want to hear, how can you recognize that I am Wu Song ." At this time, he no longer concealed his identity.
After hearing him announce his name, both Zhu Sanlang and Hu Rong changed their faces, and they quietly put their hands on the weapons beside them. Just a few months ago, someone went on a killing spree in Mengzhou City, killing dozens of people in the house of Zhang Dujian, and even left an inscription "The murderer beats the tiger and Wu Song!" Naturally, it has already been spread. Everyone knows that in the eyes of ordinary people, Wu Song is a thug who kills without blinking an eye.
"I learned about Wu Erlang's appearance from Song Jiang and Song Gongming. He and I are both from Yuncheng County, and we had a relationship with him in Jiangzhou before." Sun Tu looked back calmly. Wu Song easily explained his reasons.
When Wu Song heard him mention Song Jiang's name, the wariness and murderous intent in his eyes finally disappeared, but the knife was still pointed at him: "You can recognize Wu Song with such an appearance based on Brother Song Jiang's description?"
"Wu Erlang's outfit is indeed very different from Song Gongming's description, but the aura on your body has not changed much, especially the aura you exude when fighting with others.
The fierce and murderous aura is not something ordinary people can have. After complimenting the other party, Sun Tu suddenly asked: "I don't know what your relationship is with my master Zhou Tong. I think the moves you used with the sword just now are somewhat similar to what he taught you." "
As expected, Wu Song was immediately attracted by his words, his expression became calmer, and he hurriedly said: "You... are you a disciple of Senior Zhou Tong?" While speaking, his mind began to recall Sun Tu's performance when he fought with others, The more I thought about it, the more I realized that the other party's moves were somewhat familiar, and they were really in the same vein as Zhou Tong.
Sun Tu smiled and said: "To be honest, my mentor is Zhou Tong. It's just that I am an unworthy disciple. I failed to get the master's true inheritance, which makes people laugh."
A smile finally appeared on Wu Song's face, and he immediately returned the sword to its sheath and said: "So the flood has really washed away the Dragon King Temple. Although I am not lucky enough to worship Senior Zhou, I am still lucky to have it." He guided me for a period of time, which made my martial arts improve a lot." Now that Sun Tu is a disciple of Zhou Tong, he finally let go of his last worry.
Seeing him relax, Sun Tu finally felt at ease and said with a smile: "It was indeed a misunderstanding. I was a little rash before. I quickly revealed your identity but forgot your current situation. Brother Wu, this is Coming from Mengzhou? How did you end up here?"
Wu Song sat down again and smiled bitterly: "After causing such a big disaster in Mengzhou, I, Wu Song, have become a wanted criminal by the government, so I changed my appearance like this. As for the purpose of my coming here, it is to fight with the thieves who were eliminated today. Theft is related. A few days ago, I met an old man on the roadside. He gave me a sip of wine and told me about his family’s tragic experience. He had three sons, a daughter-in-law, and five grandchildren who were all killed by this bandit. .
"I, Wu Song, never receive favors from others in vain. Since I drank from him and knew what happened to him, I naturally want to seek justice for him. So these days, I have been inquiring about the horse thieves in Jeju Prefecture. I planned to find an opportunity to avenge the old man, but unexpectedly I met the Sun brothers, which solved a problem for me." As he said that, he picked up the wine bowl and made a toast gesture to everyone.
In fact, Wu Song still concealed one detail. After confirming Sun Tu's identity as a military attache, he had no intention of taking action. It wasn't until they learned that they were going to protect the people in Qingdian Town that they finally decided to take the risk after being impressed by their bravery.
And the reason why he was so ruthless in attacking those horse thieves, and never spared human life with his sword, was because he had heard too many things from the local people in the past days about horse thieves causing trouble, and he had already had the desire to kill in his heart, especially when He hated the leader Hu Mingzong deeply and would kill him with all his strength whenever he got the chance.
But just his explanation made Sun Tu and others moved. Luda immediately raised his wine bowl and touched it with him from a distance: "Okay, Brother Wu is indeed a chivalrous man, and the Sa family I admire you and have a drink."
When Sun Tu responded by raising his bowl, Zhu Sanlang and Hu Rong also drank a bowl of wine after a slight hesitation. Their reactions were noticed by Sun Tu, who smiled and said: "Brother Lu said it well. Wu Erlang is indeed a true hero who stands upright, so I believe that Mengzhou's incident must have happened for a reason.
. I wonder if you can tell us about it? "
"This matter is a long story." Wu Song had already let down his guard at this time, and simply told all his previous experiences without concealing anything... This series of ups and downs of encounters made everyone present listen. Hu Rong was amazed, and Hu Rong even applauded for some things, and finally said with understanding: "Wu... Second brother Wu, I thought you were a lawless, murderous and murderous maniac. It seems that I misunderstood you." Even though some people in Mengzhou really don’t deserve to die, people are forced to do that and have no choice.”
"Haha, Wu Song is deeply pleased to be able to understand Miss Hu. In fact, I did regret it afterwards, but everyone has been killed, so what's the use of regretting it anymore? All I can do now is to find this useful body Do more of what you should do for the people of the world." Wu Song said with a smile.
Sun Tu took the opportunity to look at him and asked, "Brother Wu, what are your plans next?"
"I have never thought about this carefully. It is just a wandering around the world."
"Have you never thought about settling down and finding a decent background?" Sun Tu had a new plan at this time and asked seductively.
Wu Song was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "This is easier said than done. I am a repeat offender of the imperial court who killed officials and rebelled. Apart from being a bandit, how else can I have a decent background?"
Although he said this, there was still a hint of expectation in his tone. When Hu Rong saw it, she opened her mouth to say something, but was lightly kicked by Zhu Biao beside her, stopping her words. She glanced at the other party in surprise, but saw him shaking his head slightly. Such felons are very important, and they are not something ordinary landlords like them can easily accept. They might bring disaster to their families at some point.
Sun Tu, on the other hand, looked at Wu Song and said, "Is Brother Wu interested in joining the army?"
"Subject to the army?" Wu Song had understood at this time: "You want me to go with you to Qingzhou to serve as an officer and soldier? This may be very difficult, after all, I..."
"Since I am the governor of Qingzhou, it is not difficult to place one or two people into our army. As for the crimes on your body, as long as you can make contributions in the future, they can always be washed away. Moreover, those who are tabooed by Brother Wu should be It's probably just the two lines of gold seals on his cheeks that's why he's dressed up the way he is now. This is no longer a problem in the military."
"How do you say this?" Wu Song asked quickly, which already revealed his true inner thoughts.
Seeing this, Sun Tu became more determined and said with a smile: "Most of the soldiers in the army have Guizhou tattoos on their faces, and Brother Wu is completely inconspicuous among them. And with your martial arts skills, you should be able to achieve some meritorious deeds." It's easy to catch. So I think going to Qingzhou with me is the best choice for you. It's better than being like a duckweed like now, always worrying about being wanted by the government, right?"
When Wu Song heard this, his expression became solemn, and he kept thinking and weighing in his heart. In fact, he has never been a person who is willing to remain unknown all his life, otherwise he would not have accepted the position of head of the county government after fighting the tiger. But now, Sun Tu can give him a chance to get away with it, which is much better than falling into trouble.
