Chapter 28 Chapter 28
Wei Xiaobao slept until midnight that night, when he suddenly heard a light knock on the window, he sat up in a daze, only to hear someone whisper outside the window: "Mr. Wei En, it's me."
He focused his attention, and recognized Wu Lishen's voice, hurriedly approached the window, and whispered: "Is it Wu Ershu?" Wu Lishen said: "I dare not, it's me." Wei Xiaobao gently opened the window, Wu Lishen jumped into the room Nai hugged him, very happy, and said in a low voice: "Grandfather, I miss you every day, and I never thought I could meet here." Turning around and closing the window, Lawei Xiaobao sat side by side on the kang, and said: "In the river During the inter-mansion meeting, I asked my friends in your guild for news about you, but they refused to tell you."
Wei Xiaobao laughed and said: "It's not that they are out of sight, they deliberately refuse to tell. In fact, I came to the 'Turtle Killing Conference' in disguise, and all the brothers in the meeting didn't know about it."
Only then did Wu Lishen feel relieved, and said: "So that's how it is. Today, I bumped into Tarzi officers and soldiers, and was rescued by Engong. Otherwise, I'm afraid that something will happen to our little lord. The little lord wants me to pay homage to benevolent. It is a great virtue.”
Wei Xiaobao said: "We are good friends, so why be polite. Second Uncle Wu, it sounds really awkward that you are so kind to me. If you treat me as a friend, this address will be avoided from now on."
Wu Lishen said: "Okay, I won't call you benefactor, and you don't call me second uncle either. From now on we will call each other brothers. I will call you brother when I am a few years older." Wei Xiaobao smiled and said, "Wonderful, Isn't your nephew Liu Yizhou going to call me uncle?" Wu Lishen felt slightly embarrassed, and said, "This guy is worthless, let's ignore him. Brother, where are you going?"
Wei Xiaobao said: "It's a long story. Second brother, the brothers are already married."
Wu Lishen said: "Congratulations, congratulations, but I don't know who the girl is?" Then he thought: "Could it be Fang Yi? He found Miss Fang and the little princess?" His face was full of joy.
Wei Xiaobao said: "My wife's surname is Chen, but there is one thing that makes me feel ashamed." Wu Lishen asked: "What?" Wei Xiaobao said: "My wife has another friend, surnamed Zheng, this kid has very bad character Rules. It’s a trivial matter to hook up with my wife, but he informed the Tartar officers and soldiers. It was his idea that those officers and soldiers came to embarrass the young man today.”
Wu Lishen was furious, and said: "This kid is getting impatient, but he doesn't know why?"
Wei Xiaobao said: "Who do you think this kid is? He is the second son of the Prince of Yanping County in Taiwan. He said that the Prince of Yanping County commanded the army, but your Prince Mu's Mansion has fallen and has no power or authority. What is the point?" Wu Standing up, he said angrily: "Our Lord Mu is the hero of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and he lives in Yunnan. How can he be compared with the Zheng family in Taiwan?" Wei Xiaobao said: "Isn't it? The boy said: Who killed Wu Sangui? Show your face; you are local snakes in Yunnan, and it is a hundred times easier to kill Wu Sangui than their Zheng family in Taiwan. He came to discuss with me and said that he would get rid of the Mu family first. I said that our Tiandihui had a bet with Mu Wangfu Let's see who gets rid of Wu Sangui first. Heroes and heroes win with glory and lose with beauty. How can there be any reason to plot against the other party secretly? This kid is not convinced, so he creates another trick. Fortunately, the Tartar officers and soldiers don't recognize the young man. Lie to them that they have identified the wrong person, so you have to get away." Wu Lishen repeatedly shouted: "So, so! Damn, this kid is not human."
Wei Xiaobao said: "Second brother, this kid must give him a good lesson. In the face of Yanping County King, we can't kill him. It's best that you beat him up, and then brother will stand up to persuade you and fight with you. You deliberately asked me to do a few tricks, pretending to be defeated, and I don’t know if I am willing or not?" Wu Lishen said: "Brother is venting his anger for us, how can there be no reason to refuse? This is the best, and it will avoid confronting the Zheng family in Taiwan and causing trouble Disputes." Wei Xiaobao said: "That kid with head and face injuries and with his brother is him." Wu Lishen said: "Yes. What happened to his Zheng family? Although the Mu Palace is in trouble today, it is not easy to bully of."
Wei Xiaobao said: "Isn't it?" Then he asked about the "hell" in the dealer's big house that day.Although he saw Xu Tianchuan during the day, it was inconvenient to ask at that time, and he kept thinking about it.
Wu Lishen was ashamed, shook his head and said: "Brother, you call me second brother today, I am really ashamed as a brother. That day we were restrained by evil methods by those pretending to be ghosts. A group of guys were lured out of the house and picked up. A few girls just came and let us go, but another group of ghosts broke into the house and rescued Zhang Laosan and the others."
Wei Xiaobao nodded, thinking: "That's from the Shenlong sect, the third young lady Zhuang and the others can't resist."
Wu Lishen shook his head and said: "At that time, Mr. Xu and I had just unlocked the acupoints, and our hands and feet were not very flexible. There was a random fight in the dark, and everyone was separated. We didn't get together until the next morning. , but you, the little princess, and Miss Fang couldn't find anything, so we went to the haunted house to search. There was only one old woman in the house, and I didn't know if she was really deaf or not. I came here at the slightest reason. Both Mr. Xu and I did not give up. We have been conducting open and secret visits for more than half a month. Alas, I have no clue at all. Good brother, I am so happy to see you today. Where did the little princess and Miss Fang go? Do you have any news? Our little prince misses his sister and is always unhappy."
Wei Xiaobao responded vaguely: "I also miss her two quite a lot. Miss Fang is smart, but the little princess is honest. I wish I could meet his brother earlier." He thought: "So you were not arrested by the Dragon Sect. , I didn’t force you to drink poison to become a spy, that’s very good.” He knew that Wu Lishen had a straightforward temper and would not lie, so if Liu Yizhou said these words, they might not be credible.
Wu Lishen said: "Brother, take care of yourself, you are going to be an elder brother." He stood up, reluctantly, took his hand, and said: "Brother, there are many good girls in the world, if your wife is right You can't live, and you don't have to take it too seriously." Wei Xiaobao sighed and was speechless.The sigh was genuine.Wu Lishen pushed open the window and jumped out.
The next day Wei Xiaobao followed Jiu Nan and A Ke out of the city and headed north, Zheng Keshun brought his companions and they were still traveling together.Jiu Nan asked him: "Young Master Zheng, where are you going?" Zheng Keshun said: "I want to go back to Taiwan and send my teacher off for a ride, so we're breaking up." After traveling for more than 20 li, they suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves, and a group of people rushed up from behind.When he ran nearby, he saw that the people coming were a group of peasants, holding hoes and iron pickets in their hands, and the first one shouted: "It's this kid, that's him." Wei Xiaobao saw that this person was Wu Lishen. A group of people bypassed the cart and stopped in the way.Wu Lishen pointed at Zheng Keshun and cursed: "Thief boy, what a good thing you did in Zhangjiazhuang last night! Did the cat steal the food and wanted to run away?" Zheng Keshun said angrily, "What Zhangjiazhuang, Lijiazhuang? Did you have eyes, nonsense? Gossip." Wu Lishen shouted: "Okay, the girl from Lijiazhuang was also deceived by you, you admit it yourself. Damn it, thief boy! You are really bold and shameless for seducing two girls in one night." Zheng's companions shouted in unison: "This is our young master, don't mistake him and talk nonsense." Wu Lishen pulled a country girl over, pointed at Zheng Keshun and said, "Is that him? You should recognize it better." Wei Xiaobao saw that this country girl had thick eyebrows and big eyes, high cheekbones, protruding teeth, and was dressed in colorful clothes. Wrapped in a piece of floral cloth, I guess Wu Lishen spent money to hire it, I was secretly amused. The country girl said in a rough voice: "It's him, it's him, that's right. He came to my room last night and hugged me, woohoo, this... so ugly, ah yo , woo woo, ah, oh my god..." She cried loudly as she spoke. Another farmer shouted loudly: "You bullied my sister and asked me to be your cheap brother-in-law. Damn it, I will fight you hard." It was Wu Lishen's disciple Ao Biao.Wei Xiaobao took a closer look at the people in the Mu Palace, there were five or six people who had met before, but Liu Yizhou was not among them, guess Wu Lishen had picked them out first, and he didn't include anyone who had a quarrel with him, so as not to expose the organization. Seeing that the country girl was so ugly, A Ke didn't believe that Zheng Keshuang would have anything to do with her, but she proved it, and these country people had no grievances or enmity with him, and they would not intentionally slander him, so she couldn't help but be skeptical.Wei Xiaobao frowned and said: "Young Master Zheng is too flirtatious, it's fine to play in a brothel, why go...go...go...well, this country girl is so ugly, senior sister, I think they must have mistaken her. "A Ke said: "Yes, I must have admitted a mistake." Wu Lishen said to the village girl, "Say it quickly, tell me quickly, why are you afraid of being ugly? He... what did this little thief give you?" The country girl took out a large silver ingot of one hundred taels from her bosom, and said, "He gave me this, and told me to listen to him. He said he was from Taiwan, and his father was a prince, and he had mountains of gold and silver at home." , and... and..." A Ke screamed "Ah", thinking that this country girl is ignorant, how could she fabricate it, of course Zheng Keshuang really said it, and couldn't help feeling bitter.All the companions in Zheng's mansion also believed it, and they all thought that this country girl would not have this big ingot by their side, so they all shouted: "Get out of the way, get out of the way! Why are you arguing with the ingot? Don't block the way of the gentlemen. .” Ao Biao shouted: "No way, my sister was raped by you, tell her how to marry in the future? You must marry her. You go back with me quickly, marry her, take her back to Taiwan, and visit your parents .My sister is the daughter of a good family, and she is not a slut. Could it be that she asked you for money to sell herself? What did he say the hundred taels of silver are for?" The last sentence was asked to the country girl.The village aunt said: "He said...he said what kind of dowry gift it is, and he also said that he would call someone to be a matchmaker, marry me as a wife, and take me to the palace to be a first-class wife." Ao Biao said: "That's it. Brother-in-law Ah, let me tell you, if you don’t marry my sister, it’s not so easy to leave like this, so go back with your brother-in-law.” Zheng Keshun was furious, thinking that when he came to the Central Plains this time, everything went wrong, even these countrymen came to me out of nowhere, raised his horsewhip, and with a slap, he shot down on Ao Biao's head.Ao Biao shouted: "Ah yo!" Putting his head in his hands, he bumped off his horse, curled up into a ball, twitched a few times, and then stopped moving.All the villagers yelled, "You've been killed, you've been killed!" The country girl jumped off the horse, hugged Ao Biao, and cried loudly, the cry was rough and hoarse, like killing a pig. Zheng Keshun was startled, now he was in a foreign land, and he was a person whom the Qing court wanted to win, and he was willing to get it. It would be a great inconvenience if a murder case happened, so he immediately shouted: "Everyone go!" The horse ran away. Suddenly a countryman jumped up and threw himself down from mid-air.Zheng Keshuang punched backhand with his left hand, hitting him in the chest.The man grabbed his wrist and twisted it, and with a click, the elbow dislocated.The man landed on the saddle behind him, stretched out his right hand under his side, grabbed his head and neck, and it was a move of "Slanting Criticism and Back Scale" in the capture technique. The man's technique was clean and neat, and he yelled loudly: " Ah San, Ah Gou, come and help me, I... I... I was beaten so badly by him, oh, hey, this kid beat me to death! Killed me!" Zheng Keshun's whole body was numb and he couldn't move. All the companions in Zheng's residence should draw out their weapons and rush forward.Although the number of people coming out of the Mu Palace this time was not many, they were not weak in skill. They raised the hoes and iron pickets and beat them indiscriminately, driving away the already injured companions. The countryman hugged Zheng Keshuang, rolled off the horse, and yelled, "Ah Hua, come and catch your husband, don't let him escape." The country girl shouted: "He can't escape." She jumped up , hugged Zheng Keshuang tightly.Only then did Wei Xiaobao realize that this country girl turned out to be a man disguised as a woman, no wonder she is so ugly, she must be someone from Prince Mu's mansion, "she" hugged Zheng Keshun, and she used the capture technique. A Ke shouted urgently: "Master, master, they have captured Mr. Zheng, what should we do?" Jiu Nan shook her head and said: "This Mr. Zheng has behaved badly, and it is not useless for him to learn some lessons. These country people will not hurt his life." She was resting in the big car, only heard the noise outside the car , but she didn't see the people in Mu Wangfu's hands, otherwise, with her eyes, once she saw the skills of these people, she would naturally see through.A Ke said: "This group of country people seem to know martial arts." Wei Xiaobao said: "There is no martial arts, but brute force is really not small." Ao Biao got up from the ground and shouted: "Damn it, I almost killed your father." A countryman laughed and said, "It's brother-in-law, how could it be Lao Tzu?" Ao Biao said: "Okay, catch me!" After killing this boy, my brother-in-law is not dead, and I don’t need him to take my life. My sister-in-law, Ahua, will be entrusted for life, so I will arrest him and marry him.” All the villagers cheered and shouted: “Go to the wedding, go to the wedding!” The horses of Zheng's mansion led together, embraced Zheng Keshuang, got on the horses and walked back the way they had come. Zheng's companion shouted and hurriedly chased after him, seeing a group of people fleeing in a hurry, but how could they catch up on foot?
Wei Xiaobao smiled and said: "Mr. Zheng is here to invite relatives, it's very wonderful, so the place name here is Gao Laozhuang." A Ke was frightened and angry, he had already lost his mind, and asked casually: "Is this called Gao Laozhuang? Wei Xiaobao said: "Yes. In Journey to the West, isn't there a book called 'Zhu Bajie Gao Laozhuang Recruits Marriage'?" A Ke said angrily: "You are Zhu Bajie!" Leaning on a tree by the road, wept stand up.Wei Xiaobao said: "Senior sister, Mr. Zheng marrying a wife is a happy event, why are you crying instead?" A Ke wanted to scold him again, but after thinking about it, this little devil has great powers, and only by asking him for help can he save Mr. Zheng back, crying: "Junior brother, how could you think of a way to save him from danger." Wei Xiaobao opened his eyes wide, pretending to be very surprised, and said: "You said to save him? He didn't kill anyone, so he won't take his life." A Ke said: "Didn't you hear? Those people are going to force him to go with that Country girls come to marry you." Wei Xiaobao smiled and said, "It's very good to marry you." Lowering his voice, he whispered: "I just want to marry you, but it's a pity you don't want to." A Ke rolled his eyes at him , said: "People are dying of anxiety, you are still talking nonsense, see if I will pay attention to you in the future?" Wei Xiaobao said: "Master said, Mr. Zheng's conduct is not good, it will be of great benefit to let him suffer. What's more It's not hard to be married, and Mr. Zheng is probably very happy. Otherwise, how could he go to this girl last night and make up with her?" A Ke slapped her right foot on the ground , Angrily said: "You are just blind, and you are not three or four." On this day, A Ke intentionally found troubles to delay the journey. When he was tipping, he cut a knife on the mule's hind hoof. The mule limped and walked very slowly. After only walking more than ten miles, it came to a town. rested. Wei Xiaobao knew that she would definitely rush to rescue Zheng Keshuang at night, after dinner, when everyone in the inn fell asleep, he went to the stable and fell asleep on the haystack.Sure enough, before the hour of the first watch shift, the sound of footsteps was heard faintly, and a dark figure walked past the stable to lead the horse.Wei Xiaobao called out in a low voice: "Someone stole the horse!" That person was A Ke, startled, turned around and wanted to run away, then recognized Wei Xiaobao's voice, and asked: "Xiaobao, is that you?" Wei Xiaobao smiled and said, "Of course it's me." Ake said: " What are you doing here?" Wei Xiaobao said: "The mountain man has a clever plan, and he expected that someone would be a horse thief tonight, so he stayed here to catch the thief." A Ke spat and begged: "Xiaobao, you go with me... ...go get him back." Hearing her begging softly, Wei Xiaobao couldn't help but feel his bones crumble, and said with a smile, "If you rescue him, what reward will you have?" A Ke said, "You can have whatever you want..." Originally, I wanted to say that you can do whatever you want , Immediately thought: "This little devil must want me to marry him, so how can I get it." Before finishing a sentence, he changed his words: "You...you always try to bully me, and never really help me .” Having said this, he began to sob and cry.It was true that she was crying, but what she thought of was Zheng Keshun's frivolity, and the fact that he was in danger, whether he had worshiped or married. When Wei Xiaobao cried like this, his heart suddenly softened, and he sighed: "Okay, okay! I'll go with you." Ake was overjoyed, sobbing and said: "Thank... Thank you." Wei Xiaobao said "You don't have to thank me, but I don't know where Gao Laozhuang is." A Ke was startled, but then understood that he said "Gao Laozhuang" and scolded Zheng Keshuang, and said in a low voice, "Let's find it all the way there." That's it." The two quietly opened the back door of the inn, led the horse out of the inn, and rode on, galloping back the same way.Wei Xiaobao said: "What's so good about Mr. Zheng, you like him so much?" A Ke said: "Who said you like him? But... But we got to know each other once, and he was in danger, so naturally we have to save him." Wei Xiaobao Said: "If someone catches me to worship and marry, will you save me?" Ake smiled and said: "Are you so beautiful? Who will catch you to worship and marry?" Wei Xiaobao sighed: "Look at me Not pleasing to the eye, maybe there is a girl who looks handsome and handsome to me?" A Ke said with a smile: "Thank God for that, so that you won't be haunting me all the time." Wei Xiaobao said: "Okay, you are so heartless. If someone arrests you to marry you, I will not save you." A Ke was slightly startled, thinking that if this kind of thing really happened, he must be rescued, and said faintly: "You will definitely come to save me." Wei Xiaobao said: "Why?" A Ke said: " People bully me, you will never stand idly by, who told you that you are my younger brother?" Wei Xiaobao heard these words, and felt very happy in his heart. While speaking, he approached the place where he met the heroes of Prince Mu's residence recently, and saw more than ten people sitting on the ground by the roadside, holding lanterns in their hands, they were the companions of Zheng's residence.Ake Lema immediately asked: "Where is Mr. Zheng?" All the companions stood up, and one of them said with a mournful face: "In the ancestral hall over there." He pointed to the northwest corner.A Ke asked: "Ancestral hall, what are you doing?" The companion said: "These country people invited the young master to go, and forced him to worship and marry him. If the young master refused, they beat and kicked him very fiercely." A Ke said angrily: "You...huh...you are all masters, how come you can't even beat a few countrymen?" All the companions should be ashamed and bowed their heads.One person said: "These country people have martial arts." A Ke said angrily: "They have martial arts, and you don't even care about your master? We are going to save people, you lead the way." An elderly companion said: "Those country folks said that if we go again, they will kill us one by one." A Ke said: "If you kill us, we will kill you. What are you afraid of? The king of the county wants you to protect the young master, but This kind of covetousness and fear of death!" The companion said: "Yes, yes. It's best...it's best to ask the girls not to ride the horse, in case they are alarmed." A Ke snorted, jumped off the horse with Wei Xiaobao, tied the horse On the roadside tree.The companions should put down the lanterns and lead the two to go northwest. After walking for a few miles, he passed through a forest and a cemetery, and came to the outside of seven or eight big houses, where there was the sound of drums and gongs.A Ke was anxious in her heart: "Is he really paying homage?" Pulling Wei Xiaobao's sleeve, he ran quickly, went around to the side of the house, saw a door half open, looking in it was dark and no one was there.The two of them dodged past, followed the sound of gongs and drums to the hall, squatted down, and opened themselves through the crack of the window. Seeing the scene in the hall, A Ke was in a hurry, but Wei Xiaobao was extremely happy. I saw a few red flowers on Zheng Keshun's hair, standing opposite a woman in a red scarf.A lot of candles were brightly lit in the hall, and a few countrymen were beating gongs and drums and making noises.Wu Lishen shouted: "Worship again, worship again!" Zheng Keshun said: "Heaven and Earth have already bowed, so what else is there to worship?" A Ke was so angry that she almost fainted. Wu Lishen shook his head and said: "It's our rule here that the groom has to bow to the bride one hundred times. You only bowed thirty times, and you have to bow seventy times." Ao Biao lifted his foot and kicked Zheng Keshuang's ass , Zheng Keshun hesitated to stand, and knelt down.Ao Biao held his head down and shouted: "You are the bridegroom today, if you kowtow a few more times, what's the point?" Wei Xiaobao knew that they were delaying the time, waiting for his arrival, this kind of good show was rarely seen in his life, he might as well watch it for a while, he was not in a hurry to go in to save people.But A Ke couldn't bear it anymore, kicked open the long window with a bang, jumped in with a single knife in her hand, and shouted: "Let him go quickly! Otherwise, the girls will kill you all one by one!" Wu Lishen smiled and said, "Girl, are you here to drink wedding wine? How do you use a knife and a gun?" A Ke took a step forward and slashed at Ao Biao with a knife. In her anger, she slashed fiercely. .Ao Biao hastily jumped away, and raised the bench behind him to attack the enemy.Although A Ke has no internal strength, her martial arts moves are quite exquisite. Ao Biao's bench is not in his hand, but she is forced to back again and again.Wu Lishen smiled and said: "Hey, it's not bad." He stretched out his hand to take it, his martial arts are much higher than Ao Biao's, and with just a pair of fleshy palms, he pierced between the blades of her blade.Zheng Keshuang jumped up and wanted to help, but was knocked to the ground by two punches on his vest. A Ke made seven or eight moves, seeing that she couldn't resist the enemy, she shouted: "Junior brother, junior brother, come quickly." But Wei Xiaobao shouted outside the window: "It's amazing, I'm fighting with you." He heard the window again Punching and kicking, obviously Wei Xiaobao was fighting fiercely. When Wu Lishen heard Wei Xiaobao's arrival, he quickly winked and shouted: "Who is it!" Two of his disciples rushed forward, using their weapons, and took A Ke's lancet.Wu Li jumped out of the hall, but saw that Wei Xiaobao was alone, kicking the long window with a bang, where was anyone fighting him?Wu Lishen almost burst out laughing, and shouted: "Everyone stop! What are you kid doing here?" Wei Xiaobao shouted: "My senior sister asked me to save this person, please let him go quickly! Oh, no, you The country guy is really good at martial arts." He yelled and ran out the door.Wu Lishen chased after him with a smile. When he came outside the ancestral hall, Wei Xiaobao stopped walking and said with a smile: "Second brother, thank you very much, this matter is very interesting." Wu Lishen smiled and said: "Is that girl my brother's sweetheart? Sure enough, both martial arts and character Also... also...hehe, not bad." He has a rough and bold nature, and A Ke is extremely beautiful, so he doesn't think there is anything special about it, but he admires her for her subtle moves. Wei Xiaobao sighed, and said: "It's a pity that she only wants to marry that brat and refuses to marry me. If you can force that brat to marry a country girl, if you can force her to marry me..." A brainstorm struck , said: "Second brother, please help me to the end. I pretend to be captured by you, and then you go capture that girl and force me to marry him. Do you think it is good?" Wu Lishen laughed out loud, shook his head involuntarily, and hurriedly said: "Very good, very good, brother, don't mind, I'm used to shaking my head, but... but..." When it came to this, he was quite hesitant.Wei Xiaobao asked: "But what?" Wu Lishen said: "We are chivalrous, it's okay to joke around, brother, don't worry, a brother speaks honestly, but the precept of lusting for money and lust is absolutely forbidden. .” Wei Xiaobao said: "Naturally. She is my senior sister, and after my marriage, she is the wife that my matchmaker is marrying. Second brother, you are a matchmaker, and worshiping heaven and earth means that you are marrying, right? It's not about picking flowers and whoring, what kind of greed is there?" Lustful?" Wu Lishen said: "Yes, yes. Brother, promise me that you will not do anything that is not chivalrous...to this girl." Wei Xiaobao said: "Don't worry about one hundred and twenty. Once a real man speaks his word, no horse will be hard to catch." Wu Lishen was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "I knew you were a famous hero. This girl married you, it was her luck." Wei Xiaobao smiled and said: "You are a matchmaker, and I always invite you for this cup of wedding wine. Drink it." Wu Lishen smiled and said: "It's wonderful! Brother, I'm going to do it." Wei Xiaobao put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "You're welcome." Wu Lishen grabbed both of his wrists with his left hand, loudly said: "Look where you are still fleeing to!" and pushed him into the hall.I saw that the single knife in A Ke's hand had been shot down, and the three weapons pointed at the back of her front.Although Ao Biao and others restrained her, they knew that she was Wei Xiaobao's sweetheart, so they didn't dare to be rude. Wu Lishen took off his belt, tied Wei Xiaobao's hands behind his back, pushed him to sit on the chair, and went over to tie up A Ke as well.Wei Xiaobao couldn't stop cursing.Wu Lishen yelled: "Little brat, curse again, I poached your eyeballs." Wei Xiaobao said: "I want to scold you, stinky thief!" A Ke said in a low voice: "Junior brother, stop scolding, lest you suffer immediate losses. "Wei Xiaobao just shut up. Wu Lishen said: "This girl also understands the truth, and her personality is not bad, very good, very good. I have a brother who hasn't married a wife yet, so let's marry her as my sister-in-law today." A Ke was shocked. , hurriedly said: "No, no!" Wu Lishen said angrily: "Why not? A big girl always wants to marry. My brother is a hero, and he will not humiliate you. Why not? Really not Play music." Ao Biao and others picked up the gongs and drums and started beating, thumping, it was very lively. Nothing in A Ke's life was more terrified than at this moment, thinking that this countryman is so rough and dirty, his younger brother will never get well, if he loses himself to such a country bastard, even if he commits suicide immediately, it will be too late.She bit her lip tightly, too frightened to speak.Wu Lishen smiled and said, "Very good, you agreed." With a wave of his right hand, everyone stopped beating the gongs and drums. A Ke shouted: "No, I don't agree. Kill me quickly!" Wu Lishen said: "Okay, I will kill you right now, and I will kill your junior brother too." He took it from Ao Biao's hand. Steel knife, raised high.A Ke cried, "Hurry up and kill him. If you don't kill him, you are not a good man. You... you kill my junior brother quickly, first... kill him first." Wu Lishen glanced at Wei Xiaobao, and said in his heart: "This girl is so ruthless to you, why do you marry her?" Wei Xiaobao also scolded in his heart: "Stinky girl, why did you kill me first?" Wu Lishen said angrily: "I just didn't want to kill your junior brother. Ah Gou, drag this brat out and chop him up!" He pointed at Zheng Keshun.Ao Biao replied, "Yes." Then he went to pull Zheng Keshuang. A Ke exclaimed: "No, don't hurt him...he can't be killed. His father... his father..." Wu Lishen said: "Forget it! Then will you be my sister-in-law?" A Ke cried: "No, no, you... you can kill me." Wu Lishen threw down the steel knife, raised a horsewhip, He shouted: "I won't kill you, I will give you a hundred lashes first." The anger in my heart was so intense that I couldn't stop it for a moment, I raised my whip to the air with a bang, and with a false blow, I was about to lash her. Wei Xiaobao shouted: "Wait a minute!" Wu Li stood in mid-air with his whip and immediately struck it down, asking: "What?" Wei Xiaobao said: "We are heroes, we value loyalty. Senior sister and I are like brothers and sisters, this hundred whips, You hit me." Seeing Wu Lishen raising his whip aggressively, A Ke panicked in fright. Hearing what Wei Xiaobao said, he was overjoyed and said, "Junior brother, you are really a good person." Wei Xiaobao said to Wu Lishen: "Hey, brother, I will take care of everything. This is called a man who is not afraid of danger and stands up. You can't force her to marry your brother. If you have any sisters who can't get married, Let me come and marry her. Mr. Zheng has already married one, and I will marry another one. If I lose two, it will be almost the same? Even if there are still others, marry me together. The ancient brains are all collected..." When he said this, Wu Lishen and others all laughed.A Ke couldn't help but also found it funny, but she only laughed for a while, and shed tears again when she thought of how wronged she had been.Wu Lishen smiled and said: "You are a handsome boy, but you are a man. I wanted to let you go, but I was scared by just giving you a few empty words. I am too pussy. The wedding must be done. Is it you worshiping the church, or her?" A Ke was eager to get away, and hurriedly said: "It's him, it's him!" Wu Lishen stared at her, and said loudly, "You said you want him to marry you?" A Ke felt a little ashamed, bowed her head and said, "Yes." Wu Lishen Said: "Okay!" Pointing at Wei Xiaobao, he said loudly: "Today you must marry someone." Wei Xiaobao looked at A Ke and said: "I...I..." A Ke said in a low voice: "Junior Brother, you rescued me from a catastrophe today, I will never forget it, so just agree!" Wei Xiaobao said with a sad face: " You want me to marry you? Sigh, you know, this matter is very embarrassing." A Ke said in a low voice, "I know, if you don't do me a big favor today, I will have to kill myself. I... have no choice but to Please. They're...they're nasty." Wei Xiaobao said loudly: "Senior Sister, you were the one who begged me today, and I, Wei Xiaobao, had no choice but to agree with you. It was you who begged me to marry me, and I didn't do it myself, did I?" A Ke said, "Yes, yes I beg you. You are a hero, a man who stepped forward to help people in need, and...you listen to me the most." Wei Xiaobao let out a long sigh, and said: "Senior Sister, you understand now that I have a lot of love for you. No matter what you ask me to do, I will agree without frowning. Since you want me to marry you, I naturally agree." A Ke said: "I know you treat me well, and from now on... I will treat you well from now on." Wu Lishen said: "That's the way to do it. Little brother, I don't have a sister to marry you, and my daughter is only three years old. It won't work. Hey, which one of you has sisters and sisters, go and call this little hero. Get married." Ao Biao laughed and said, "I haven't." Another person said: "This little hero is so righteous, if I get married with him, it would be a great luck, but it's a pity that I only have brothers and no sisters." One person said: "My elder sister married a long time ago and has already given birth to eight children. Little hero, if you can wait, when my brother-in-law dies, I will ask my elder sister to remarry you." Wu Lishen said: "I can't wait. Which one is ready?" Everyone shook their heads and said, "No." Everyone seemed to miss the opportunity, which is a pity. Wei Xiaobao said happily: "My friends, it's not that I don't want to, it's just that you don't have sisters, so let us go." Wu Lishen shook his head and said: "No. Once a man speaks a word, it's hard to catch up with a horse. Today we have to visit the hall, otherwise, we will run into the evil god Tai Sui, and everyone here will die. Is this a joke? Okay, you and She's going to marry her." She pointed at A Ke while speaking. A Ke and Wei Xiaobao shouted at the same time: "No, it's not good!" Wu Lishen said angrily: "What's wrong? Little girl, would you like to worship with my brother, or with this little hero? You can choose one yourself." A Ke blushed pretty face, shook her head and said "None!" Wu Lishen said angrily, "At this time, we still have to push back and forth. The time has come, I missed this good time, and the evil spirits came, and no one here can survive. Hey, Ah San, Ah Gou, these two little ones If the guy refuses to marry, cut off both of their noses." Ao Biao and a junior agreed in unison, picked up the steel knife, and wiped the blade on A Ke's nose a few times. A Ke was not afraid of death, but when she thought of cutting off her nose, it would be extremely ugly, and she was so shocked that her face turned pale. Wei Xiaobao said: "Don't cut off my senior sister's nose, just cut mine." Wu Lishen said: "I want to cut off two noses to sacrifice to the god of evil, but you only have one. Hey, Mr. Zheng, cut off your nose to replace this girl, okay?" A Ke looked at Zheng Keshuang, begging for mercy .Zheng Keshun turned his head, not daring to look at her, but shook his head.Wu Lishen said: "This kid is not willing, but your junior brother is willing. Hey, your junior brother treats you much better. If this kind of person doesn't marry, who will he marry? Pay homage and play music!" Amidst the sound of gongs and drums, Ao Biao went to take off the turban from the fake bride's head, put it on A Ke's head, and untied her.A Ke punched him, and hit his chest with a slap. Fortunately, he didn't have much internal strength, although he hit, it didn't hurt much.Ao Biao put the steel knife across the back of her neck. Wu Lishen saluted and said: "Bride and groom, bless the sky!" A Ke felt a chill on the back of her neck and a slight pain. She had no choice but to kneel down side by side with Wei Xiaobao.Wu Lishen shouted again: "The bride and groom bow to the ground." Ao Biao pushed her body and bowed inwards. Amid the sound of "husband and wife bowing together", the two knelt down opposite each other and bowed a few times. Wu Lishen laughed loudly, and shouted: "The new couple thank you for the matchmaker." A Ke was extremely angry, and suddenly kicked him in the lower abdomen.This kick was really not light, Wu Lishen let out a loud "heh", stepped back a few steps, couldn't help coughing, and said with a smile: "The bride is so fierce, even kicking the matchmaker!"
At this moment, I suddenly heard whistles outside the ancestral hall. There were footsteps in the southeast, northwest, and there were at least forty or fifty people.Wu Lishen suppressed his smile, and said in a low voice, "Blow out the candles." The ancestral hall was completely dark. Wei Xiaobao rushed to A Ke's side, held her hand, and said in a low voice: "The enemy is coming outside." A Ke was very angry, sobbing: "I... I worshiped you." Wei Xiaobao whispered ：“我这是求之不得，只不过拜天地拜得太马虎了些。”阿珂怒道：“不算数的。你道是真的么？”韦小宝道：“那还有假？这叫做生米煮成熟饭，木已成狗。”阿珂呜咽道：“什么木已成狗？木已成舟。”韦小宝道：“是，是，木已成舟。娘子学问好，以后多教教我相公。”阿珂听他居然老了脸皮，称起“娘子、相公”来，心中一急，哭了出来。 却听得祠堂外呼声大震，数十人齐声呐喊，若兽吼，若牛鸣，叽哩咕噜，浑不知叫些什么。阿珂心中害怕，不自禁向韦小宝靠去。韦小宝伸臂搂住她，低声道：“别怕，好像是大批西藏喇嘛来攻。”阿珂道：“那怎么办？”韦小宝拉着她手臂，悄悄走到神龛之后。 突然间火光耀眼，数十人拥进祠堂来，手中都执着火把兵刃，韦小宝和阿珂一见之下，都是大吃一惊。这群人脸上涂得花花绿绿，头上插了鸟羽，上身赤裸，腰间围着兽皮，胸口臂上都绘了花纹，原来是一群生番。阿珂见这群蛮子人不像人，鬼不像鬼，个个面目狰狞，更加怕得厉害，缩在韦小宝怀里只是发抖。 众蛮子哇哇狂叫，当先一人喝道：“汉人，不好，都杀了！蛮子，好人，要杀人！咕花吐鲁，阿巴斯里！”众蛮子纵声大叫，说的都是蛮话。 吴立身是云南人，懂得夷语，但这些蛮子的话却半句不懂，用夷语说道：“我们汉人是好人，大家不杀。”那蛮子首领仍道：“汉人，不好，都杀了。咕花吐鲁，阿巴斯里。”众蛮子齐叫：“咕花吐鲁，阿巴斯里。”举起大刀钢叉杀来。众人无奈，只得举兵刃迎敌。 数合一过，吴立身等个个大为惊异。原来众蛮子武艺精熟，兵刃上招数中规中矩，一攻一守，俱合尺度，全非乱砍乱杀。再拆得数招，韦小宝和阿珂也看了出来。吴立身边打边叫：“大家小心，这些蛮子学过我们汉人武功，不可轻忽。” 为首蛮子叫道：“汉人杀法，蛮子都会，不怕汉人。咕花吐鲁，阿巴斯里。” 蛮子人多，武功又甚了得。沐王府人众个个以一敌三，或是以一敌四，顷刻间便迭遇凶险。吴立身挥刀和那首领狠斗，竟占不到丝毫便宜，越斗越惊，忽听得“啊啊”两声叫，两名弟子受伤倒地。又过片刻，敖彪腿上被猎叉戳中，一交摔倒，三名蛮人扑上擒住。 不多时之间，沐王府十余人全被打倒。郑克塽早就遍体是伤，稍一抵抗就被按倒。众蛮子身上带有牛筋，将众人绑缚起来。那蛮子首领跳上跳下，大说蛮话。 吴立身暗暗叫苦，待要脱身而逃，却挂念着韦小宝和众弟子，当下奋力狠斗，只盼能制服这首领，逼他们罢手放人。突然那首领迎头挥刀砍下，吴立身举刀挡格，当的一声，手臂隐隐发麻，突觉背后一棍着地扫来，急忙跃起闪避。那首领单刀一翻，已架在他颈中，叫道：“汉人，输了。蛮人，不输了。” 韦小宝心道：“这蛮子好笨，不会说'赢了'，只会说'不输了'！” 吴立身摇头长叹，掷刀就缚。 众蛮子举起火把到处搜寻。韦小宝眼见藏身不住，拉了阿珂向外便奔，叫道：“蛮子，好人，我们两个，都是蛮子。咕花吐鲁，阿巴斯里。”那首领一伸手，抓住阿珂后领。另外三名蛮子扑将上来，抱住了韦小宝。韦小宝只叫得半句“咕花……”便住了口。 蛮子首领一见到他，忽然脸色有异，伸臂将他抱住，叫道：“希呼阿布，奇里温登。”抱住了他走出祠堂。韦小宝大惊，转头向阿珂叫道：“娘子，这蛮子要杀我，你可得给我守寡，不能改嫁这……”话未说完，已给抱出大门。那蛮子首领奔出十余丈外，将韦小宝放了下来，说道：“桂公公，怎么你在这里？”语调中显得又是惊奇，又是欢喜。 韦小宝惊喜交集，道：“你……你这蛮子识得我？”那人笑道：“小人是杨溢之，平西王府的杨溢之。桂公公认不出罢，哈哈。”韦小宝哈哈大笑，正要说话，杨溢之拉住他手，说道：“咱们再走远些说话，别让人听见了。”两人又走出了二十余丈，这才停住。杨溢之道：“在这里竟会遇到桂公公，真教人欢喜得紧。” 韦小宝问道：“杨大哥怎么到了这里，又扮成了咕花吐鲁，阿巴斯里？”杨溢之笑道：“有一大批家伙在河间府聚会，想要不利于我们王爷，王爷得到了讯息，派小人来查探。” 韦小宝暗暗心惊，脑中飞快的转着主意，说道：“上次沐王府那批家伙入宫行刺，陷害平西王……”杨溢之忙道：“多承公公云天高义，向皇上奏明，洗刷了平西王的冤屈。我们王爷感激不已，时常提起，只盼能向公公亲口道谢。”韦小宝道：“道谢是不敢当。蒙王爷这样瞧得起，我在皇上身边，有什么事能帮王爷一个小忙，那总是要办的。这次皇上得知，有一群反贼要在河间府聚会，又想害平西王，我就自告奋勇，过来瞧瞧。” 杨溢之大喜，说道：“原来皇上已先得知，反贼们的奸计就不得逞了。那当真好极了。小人奉王爷之命，混进了那他妈的狗头大会之中。听到他们推举各省盟主，想加害我王爷。不瞒桂公公说，我们心中实是老大担忧。明枪易躲，暗箭难防，反贼们倘若胆敢到云南来动手，不是小人夸口，来一千，捉一千，来一万，杀一万；怕的却是他们像上次沐家众狗贼那样，胡作非为，嫁祸于我们王爷，那可是无穷的后患。” 韦小宝一拍胸膛，昂然道：“请杨大哥去禀告王爷，一点不用担心。我一回到京里，就将那狗头大会里的事，一五一十，十五二十，详详细细的奏知皇上。他们跟平西王作对，就是跟皇上作对。他们越是恨平西王，越显得王爷对皇上忠心耿耿。皇上一喜欢，别说平西王爷，连你杨大哥也是重重有赏，升官发财，不在话下。” 杨溢之喜道：“全仗桂公公大力周旋。小人自己倒不想升官发财。王爷于先父有大恩，曾救了小人全家性命。先父临死之时曾有遗命，吩咐小人誓死保护王爷周全。公公，你到这里，是来探听沐家众狗贼的阴谋么？” 韦小宝一拍大腿，说道：“杨大哥，你不但武功了得，而且料事如神，佩服，佩服。我和师姊乔装改扮了，来探听他们捣些什么鬼，却给他们发觉了。我胡说八道一番，他们居然信以为真，反逼我和师姊当场拜堂成亲，哈哈，这叫做因祸得福了。” 杨溢之心想：“你是太监，成什么亲？啊，是了，你和那小姑娘假装是一对情侣，骗信了他们。”说道：“这摇头狮子武功不错，却是有勇无谋。”韦小宝道：“你们假扮蛮子，为的是捉拿他们？”杨溢之道：“沐家跟我们王府仇深似海，上次吃了他们这大亏，一直还没翻本。这次在狗头大会之中又见了他们。小人心下盘算，倘若在直隶闹出事来，皇上知道了，只怕要怪罪我们王爷，说平西王府的人在京师附近不遵守王法，杀人生事。” 韦小宝大拇指一翘，赞道：“杨大哥这计策高明得紧，你们扮成蛮子生番，咕花吐鲁，阿巴斯里，就算把沐家一伙人尽数杀了，旁人也只道是蛮子造反，谁也不会疑心到平西王身上。”杨溢之笑道：“正是。只不过我们扮成这般希奇古怪的模样，倒教公公见笑了。”韦小宝道：“什么见笑？我心里可羡慕得紧呢。我真想脱了衣服，脸上画得花花绿绿，跟你们大叫大跳一番。”杨溢之笑道：“公公要是有兴，咱们这就装扮起来。”韦小宝叹了口气，说道：“这一次是不行了，我老婆见到我这等怪模怪样，定要大发脾气。” 杨溢之道：“公公当真娶了夫人？不是给那些狗贼逼着假装的么？”这却不易三言两语就说得明白，韦小宝便改换话题，说道：“杨大哥，我跟你投缘得很，你如瞧得起，咱们两个便结拜成了金兰兄弟，不用公公、小人的，听着可多别扭。” 杨溢之大喜，一来平西王正有求于他，今后许多大事，都要仗他在皇上面前维持；二来这小公公为人慷慨豪爽，很够朋友，当日在康亲王府中，就对自己十分客气，便道：“那是求之不得，就怕高攀不上。”韦小宝道：“什么高攀低攀？咱们比比高矮，是你高呢还是我高？”杨溢之哈哈大笑。两人当即跪了下来，撮土为香，拜了八拜，改口以兄弟相称。 杨溢之道：“兄弟，咱俩今后情同骨肉，非比寻常，只不过在别人之前，做哥哥的还是叫你公公，以免惹人疑心。”韦小宝道：“这个自然。大哥，沐家那些人，你要拿他们怎么样？”杨溢之道：“我抓他们去云南，慢慢拷打，拿到了陷害我们王爷的口供之后，解到京里，好让皇上明白平西王赤胆忠心，也显得兄弟先前力保平西王，半分也没保错。” 韦小宝点头道：“很好，很好！大哥，你想那摇头老虎肯招么？”杨溢之道：“是摇头狮子吴立身。这人在江湖上也颇有名望，听说为人十分硬气，他是不肯招的。我敬他是条汉子，也不会如何难为他。可是其余那些人，总有几个熬不住刑，会招了出来。”韦小宝道：“不错，计策不错。”杨溢之听他语气似在随口敷衍，便道：“兄弟，我你已不是外人，你如以为不妥，还请直言相告。” 韦小宝道：“不妥什么的倒是没有，听说沐家有个反贼叫沐剑声的，还有个硬背乌龙柳什么的人。”杨溢之道：“铁背苍龙柳大洪。他是沐剑声的师父。”韦小宝道：“是了，大哥，你记性真好。皇上吩咐，要查明这两个人的踪迹。你也捉住了他们么？”杨溢之道：“沐剑声也到河间府去了，我们一路撮着下来，一到献县，却给他溜了，不知躲到了哪里。” 韦小宝道：“这就有些为难了。我刚才胡说八道，已骗得那摇头狮子变成了点头狮子，说要带我去见他们小公爷。我本想查明他们怎生阴谋陷害平西王，回去奏知皇上。大哥既有把握，可以将他们的阴谋拷打出来，那也一样，倒不用兄弟冒险了。” 杨溢之寻思：“我拷打几个无足轻重之人，他们未必知道真正内情，就算知道，沐家那些狗贼骨头很硬，也未必肯说。再说，由王爷自己辩白，万万不如皇上亲自派下来的人查明回奏，来得有力。倘若我们装作不知，由桂兄弟去自行奏告皇上，那可好得太多了。”当即拉着韦小宝的手，说道：“兄弟，你的法子高明得多，一切听你的。咱们怎生去放了沐家那些狗贼，教他们不起疑心？”韦小宝道：“那要你来想法子。” 杨溢之沉吟片刻，道：“这样罢。你逃进祠堂去，假意奋勇救你师姊，我追了进来，两人乱七八糟大讲蛮话。讲了一阵，我给你说服了，恭敬行礼而去，那就不露半点痕迹。”韦小宝笑道：“妙极，我桂公公精通蛮话。那是有出戏文的，唐明皇手下有个李什么的有学问先生，喝醉了酒，一篇文章做了出来，只吓得众蛮子屁滚尿流。”杨溢之笑道：“这是李太白醉草吓蛮书。” 韦小宝拍手道：“对，对！桂公公醒讲吓蛮话，一样的了不起。大哥，咱们可须装得似模似样，你向我假意拳打足踢，我毫不受伤。啊，是了，我上身穿有护身宝衣背心，刀枪不入。你不妨向我砍上几刀，只消不使内力，不震伤五脏六腑，那就半点没事。”杨溢之道：“兄弟有此宝衣，那太好了。”韦小宝吹牛：“皇上派我出来探查反贼的逆谋，怕给他们知觉杀了我，特地从身上脱下这件西洋红毛国进贡来的宝衣，赐了给我。大哥，你不用怕伤了我，先砍上几刀试试。” 杨溢之拔出刀来，在他左肩轻轻一划，果然刀锋只划破外衣，遇到内衣时便划不进去，手上略略加劲，又在他左肩轻轻斩了一刀，仍是丝毫不损，赞道：“好宝衣，好宝衣！” 韦小宝道：“大哥，里面有个姓郑的小子，就是那个穿着华丽的绣花枕头公子爷，这家伙老是向我师姊勾勾搭搭，兄弟见了生气得很，最好你们捉了他去。”杨溢之道：“我将他一掌毙了便是。”韦小宝道：“杀不得，杀不得。这人是皇上要的，将来要着落在他身上，办一件大事。请你捉了他去，好好看守起来，不可难为他，也不要盘问他什么事。过得二三十年，我来向你要，你就差人送到北京来罢。” 杨溢之道：“是，我给你办得妥妥当当的。”突然间提高声音，大叫：“胡鲁希都，爱里巴拉！嘘老嘘老！”低声笑道：“咱俩说了这会子话，只怕他们要疑心了。”韦小宝也尖声大叫，说了一连串“蛮话”。杨溢之笑道：“兄弟的'蛮话'，比起做哥哥的来，可流利得多了。”韦小宝笑道：“这个自然，兄弟当年流落番邦，番邦公主要想招我为驸马，那蛮话是说惯了的。”杨溢之哈哈大笑。 韦小宝又道：“大哥，我有一件事好生为难，你得帮我想个法子。” 杨溢之一拍胸膛，慨然道：“兄弟有什么事，做哥哥的把这条性命交了给你也成，只要你吩咐，无有不遵。”韦小宝叹道：“多谢了，这件事说难不难，说易却也是十分不易。”杨溢之道：“兄弟说出来，我帮你琢磨琢磨。倘若做哥哥的办不了，我去求我们王爷。几万兵马，几百万两银子，也调动得出来。”韦小宝微微一笑，说道：“千军万马，金山银山，只怕都是无用。那是我师姊，她给逼着跟我拜堂成亲，心中可老大不愿意。最好你有什么妙法，帮我生米煮成熟饭，弄他一个木已成舟。” 杨溢之忍不住好笑，心想：“原来如此，我还道是什么大事，却原来只不过要对付一个小姑娘。但你是太监，怎能娶妻？是了，听说明朝太监常有娶几个老婆的事，兄弟想是也要来搞这一套玩意儿，过过干瘾。”想到他自幼被净了身，心下不禁难过，携着韦小宝的手，说道：“兄弟，人生在世，不能事事顺遂。古往今来大英雄、大豪杰，身有缺陷之人极多，那也不必在意。我们进去罢。” 韦小宝道：“好！”口中大叫“蛮话”，拔足向祠堂内奔了进去。杨溢之仗刀赶来，也是大呼“蛮话”，一进大厅，便将韦小宝一把抓住。两人你一句“希里呼噜”，我一句“阿依巴拉”，说个不休，一面指指吴立身，又指着阿珂。 吴立身和阿珂等又惊又喜，心下都存了指望，均想：“幸亏他懂得蛮子话，最好能说得众蛮子收兵而去。” 杨溢之提起刀来，对准阿珂的头顶，说道：“女人，不好，杀了。”韦小宝忙道：“老婆，我的，不杀！”杨溢之道：“老婆，你的，不杀？”韦小宝连连点头，说道：“老婆，我的，不杀！”杨溢之大怒，喝道：“老婆，你的，不杀。杀你！” 韦小宝道：“很好，老婆，我的，不杀。杀我！” 杨溢之呼的一刀，砍向韦小宝胸口。这一刀劈下去时刀风呼呼，劲力极大，但刀锋一碰到韦小宝身上，立即收劲，手腕一抖，那刀反弹了回来。他假装大吃一惊，跳起身来，连砍三刀，在韦小宝衣襟上划了三条长缝，大声叫道：“你，菩萨，杀不死？”韦小宝点头道：“我，菩萨，杀不死。” 杨溢之大拇指一翘，说道：“你，菩萨，不是的。大英雄，是的。”指指吴立身等人，问道：“汉人，杀了？”韦小宝摇手道：“朋友，我的，不杀。”杨溢之点点头，问阿珂道：“你，老婆，大英雄的？” 阿珂见他手中明晃晃的钢刀，想要否认，却又不敢。杨溢之一刀疾劈，将一张供桌削为两爿，喝道：“老公，你的？”指着韦小宝。阿珂无奈，只得低声道：“老公，我的。” 杨溢之哈哈大笑，提起阿珂，送到韦小宝身前，说道：“老婆，你的，抱抱。” 韦小宝张开双臂，将阿珂紧紧抱住，说道：“老婆，我的，抱抱。” 杨溢之指着郑克塽，问道：“儿子，你的？”韦小宝摇头道：“儿子，我的，不是！”杨溢之大叫几句“蛮话”，抓住郑克塽，奔了出去，口中连声呼啸。他手下从人一拥而出。只听得马蹄声响，竟自去了。
阿珂惊魂略定，只觉韦小宝双臂仍是抱住自己的腰不放，说道：“放开手。”韦小宝道：“老婆，我的，抱抱。”阿珂又羞又怒，用手一挣，挣脱了他的手臂。 韦小宝拾起地上一柄钢刀，将吴立身等的绑缚都割断了。吴立身道：“这些蛮子武功好生了得，亏得新郎官会说蛮话，又练了金钟罩铁布衫功夫，刀枪不入，大伙儿得你相救。”韦小宝道：“这些蛮子武功虽高，头脑却笨得很。我胡说一通，他们便都信了。” 阿珂道：“郑公子给他们捉去了，怎生相救才是。” 那假新娘突然大叫：“我老公给蛮子捉了去，定要煮熟来吃了。”放声大哭。 吴立身向韦小宝拱手道：“请教英雄高姓大名。”韦小宝道：“不敢，在下姓韦。”吴立身道：“韦相公和韦家娘子今日成亲，一点小小贺仪，不成敬意。”说着伸手入怀，摸出两只小小的金元宝。韦小宝道：“多谢了。”伸手接过。 阿珂胀红了脸，顿足道：“不是的，不算数的。”吴立身笑道：“你们天地也拜过了，你刚才对那蛮子说过'老公，我的'，怎么还能赖？新娘新郎洞房花烛，我们不打扰了。”一挥手，和敖彪等人大踏步出了祠堂。 霎时之间，偌大一座祠堂中静悄悄地更无人声。 阿珂又是害怕，又是羞愤，向韦小宝偷眼瞧了一眼，想到自己已说过“老公，我的”这话，突然伏在桌上，哭了出来，顿足道：“都是你不好，都是你不好！” 韦小宝柔声道：“是，是，都是我不好。几时我再想个法儿，救了郑公子出来，你就说我好了。”阿珂抬起头来，说道：“你……你能救他出来么？” 红烛摇晃之下，她一张娇艳无伦的脸上带着亮晶晶的几滴泪珠，真是白玉镶珠不足比其容色、玫瑰初露不能方其清丽，韦小宝不由得看得呆了，竟忘了回答。 阿珂拉拉他衣襟，道：“我问你啊，怎么去救郑公子出来？” 韦小宝这才惊觉，叹了口气，说道：“那蛮子头脑说，他们出来一趟，不能空手而回，定要捉一人回去山洞，煮来大伙儿吃了……”阿珂惊叫一声，道：“煮来大伙儿吃了？”想起那“新娘”的惊叫，更是心惊。韦小宝道：“是啊，他们本来说你细皮白肉，滋味最好，要捉你去吃的……”阿珂不自禁的打了个寒战，抬头向门外一张，生怕那些蛮子去而复回。韦小宝续道：“……我说你是我老婆，他们就放过了你。”阿珂急道：“郑公子给他们捉了去，岂不是被他们煮……煮……” 韦小宝道：“是啊，除非我自告奋勇，去让他们吃了，将郑公子换了出来。” 阿珂道：“那你就去换他出来！”这句话一出口，就知说错了，俏脸一红，低下头来。 韦小宝大怒，暗道：“臭小娘，你瞧得你老公不值半文钱，宁可让蛮子将我煮来吃了，好救你的奸夫出来。”冷冷的道：“就算换了他出来，那也没用了？”阿珂急道：“怎……怎么没用了？”韦小宝道：“郑公子已和那乡下姑娘拜堂成亲，你亲眼见到了的。他已有了明媒正娶的老婆，木已成舟，你也嫁他不成了。”阿珂顿足道：“那是假的。”韦小宝气忿忿的道：“好，你要我去换，我就去换。就不知蛮子的山洞在哪里。哼，咱们走罢。” 阿珂默默跟着他走出祠堂，生怕一句话说错，他又不肯去换郑公子了。来到大路，只见郑府众伴当提着灯笼，围着在大声说话。两人走近身去，郑府众伴当道：“陈姑娘来啦，我家公子呢？我家公子呢？”快步迎上。 人丛中一个身材瘦削的人影突然一晃而前，身法极快，韦小宝眼睛一花，便见这人到了身前，听得一个尖锐的声音问道：“我家公子在哪里？”这人背着灯光，韦小宝瞧不见他的脸，心中一惊，退了两步，岂知他退了两步，那人跟着上前两步，仍是和他面对面的站立，相距不到一尺，又问：“我家公子在哪里？” 阿珂道：“他……他给蛮子捉去啦，要……要煮了他来吃了。”那人道：“中原之地，哪来的蛮子？”阿珂道：“是真的蛮子，快……快想法子救他。”那人道：“去了多久？”阿珂道：“没多久。” 那人身子斗然拔起，向后倒跃，落下时刚好骑在一匹马的鞍上，双腿一挟，那马奔驰而去，片刻间没入了黑暗之中。 韦小宝和阿珂面面相觑。一个吃惊，一个欢喜，眼见这人武功之高，身法
The next day Wei Xiaobao followed Jiu Nan and A Ke out of the city and headed north, Zheng Keshun brought his companions and they were still traveling together.Jiu Nan asked him: "Young Master Zheng, where are you going?" Zheng Keshun said: "I want to go back to Taiwan and send my teacher off for a ride, so we're breaking up." After traveling for more than 20 li, they suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves, and a group of people rushed up from behind.When he ran nearby, he saw that the people coming were a group of peasants, holding hoes and iron pickets in their hands, and the first one shouted: "It's this kid, that's him." Wei Xiaobao saw that this person was Wu Lishen. A group of people bypassed the cart and stopped in the way.Wu Lishen pointed at Zheng Keshun and cursed: "Thief boy, what a good thing you did in Zhangjiazhuang last night! Did the cat steal the food and wanted to run away?" Zheng Keshun said angrily, "What Zhangjiazhuang, Lijiazhuang? Did you have eyes, nonsense? Gossip." Wu Lishen shouted: "Okay, the girl from Lijiazhuang was also deceived by you, you admit it yourself. Damn it, thief boy! You are really bold and shameless for seducing two girls in one night." Zheng's companions shouted in unison: "This is our young master, don't mistake him and talk nonsense." Wu Lishen pulled a country girl over, pointed at Zheng Keshun and said, "Is that him? You should recognize it better." Wei Xiaobao saw that this country girl had thick eyebrows and big eyes, high cheekbones, protruding teeth, and was dressed in colorful clothes. Wrapped in a piece of floral cloth, I guess Wu Lishen spent money to hire it, I was secretly amused. The country girl said in a rough voice: "It's him, it's him, that's right. He came to my room last night and hugged me, woohoo, this... so ugly, ah yo , woo woo, ah, oh my god..." She cried loudly as she spoke. Another farmer shouted loudly: "You bullied my sister and asked me to be your cheap brother-in-law. Damn it, I will fight you hard." It was Wu Lishen's disciple Ao Biao.Wei Xiaobao took a closer look at the people in the Mu Palace, there were five or six people who had met before, but Liu Yizhou was not among them, guess Wu Lishen had picked them out first, and he didn't include anyone who had a quarrel with him, so as not to expose the organization. Seeing that the country girl was so ugly, A Ke didn't believe that Zheng Keshuang would have anything to do with her, but she proved it, and these country people had no grievances or enmity with him, and they would not intentionally slander him, so she couldn't help but be skeptical.Wei Xiaobao frowned and said: "Young Master Zheng is too flirtatious, it's fine to play in a brothel, why go...go...go...well, this country girl is so ugly, senior sister, I think they must have mistaken her. "A Ke said: "Yes, I must have admitted a mistake." Wu Lishen said to the village girl, "Say it quickly, tell me quickly, why are you afraid of being ugly? He... what did this little thief give you?" The country girl took out a large silver ingot of one hundred taels from her bosom, and said, "He gave me this, and told me to listen to him. He said he was from Taiwan, and his father was a prince, and he had mountains of gold and silver at home." , and... and..." A Ke screamed "Ah", thinking that this country girl is ignorant, how could she fabricate it, of course Zheng Keshuang really said it, and couldn't help feeling bitter.All the companions in Zheng's mansion also believed it, and they all thought that this country girl would not have this big ingot by their side, so they all shouted: "Get out of the way, get out of the way! Why are you arguing with the ingot? Don't block the way of the gentlemen. .” Ao Biao shouted: "No way, my sister was raped by you, tell her how to marry in the future? You must marry her. You go back with me quickly, marry her, take her back to Taiwan, and visit your parents .My sister is the daughter of a good family, and she is not a slut. Could it be that she asked you for money to sell herself? What did he say the hundred taels of silver are for?" The last sentence was asked to the country girl.The village aunt said: "He said...he said what kind of dowry gift it is, and he also said that he would call someone to be a matchmaker, marry me as a wife, and take me to the palace to be a first-class wife." Ao Biao said: "That's it. Brother-in-law Ah, let me tell you, if you don’t marry my sister, it’s not so easy to leave like this, so go back with your brother-in-law.” Zheng Keshun was furious, thinking that when he came to the Central Plains this time, everything went wrong, even these countrymen came to me out of nowhere, raised his horsewhip, and with a slap, he shot down on Ao Biao's head.Ao Biao shouted: "Ah yo!" Putting his head in his hands, he bumped off his horse, curled up into a ball, twitched a few times, and then stopped moving.All the villagers yelled, "You've been killed, you've been killed!" The country girl jumped off the horse, hugged Ao Biao, and cried loudly, the cry was rough and hoarse, like killing a pig. Zheng Keshun was startled, now he was in a foreign land, and he was a person whom the Qing court wanted to win, and he was willing to get it. It would be a great inconvenience if a murder case happened, so he immediately shouted: "Everyone go!" The horse ran away. Suddenly a countryman jumped up and threw himself down from mid-air.Zheng Keshuang punched backhand with his left hand, hitting him in the chest.The man grabbed his wrist and twisted it, and with a click, the elbow dislocated.The man landed on the saddle behind him, stretched out his right hand under his side, grabbed his head and neck, and it was a move of "Slanting Criticism and Back Scale" in the capture technique. The man's technique was clean and neat, and he yelled loudly: " Ah San, Ah Gou, come and help me, I... I... I was beaten so badly by him, oh, hey, this kid beat me to death! Killed me!" Zheng Keshun's whole body was numb and he couldn't move. All the companions in Zheng's residence should draw out their weapons and rush forward.Although the number of people coming out of the Mu Palace this time was not many, they were not weak in skill. They raised the hoes and iron pickets and beat them indiscriminately, driving away the already injured companions. The countryman hugged Zheng Keshuang, rolled off the horse, and yelled, "Ah Hua, come and catch your husband, don't let him escape." The country girl shouted: "He can't escape." She jumped up , hugged Zheng Keshuang tightly.Only then did Wei Xiaobao realize that this country girl turned out to be a man disguised as a woman, no wonder she is so ugly, she must be someone from Prince Mu's mansion, "she" hugged Zheng Keshun, and she used the capture technique. A Ke shouted urgently: "Master, master, they have captured Mr. Zheng, what should we do?" Jiu Nan shook her head and said: "This Mr. Zheng has behaved badly, and it is not useless for him to learn some lessons. These country people will not hurt his life." She was resting in the big car, only heard the noise outside the car , but she didn't see the people in Mu Wangfu's hands, otherwise, with her eyes, once she saw the skills of these people, she would naturally see through.A Ke said: "This group of country people seem to know martial arts." Wei Xiaobao said: "There is no martial arts, but brute force is really not small." Ao Biao got up from the ground and shouted: "Damn it, I almost killed your father." A countryman laughed and said, "It's brother-in-law, how could it be Lao Tzu?" Ao Biao said: "Okay, catch me!" After killing this boy, my brother-in-law is not dead, and I don’t need him to take my life. My sister-in-law, Ahua, will be entrusted for life, so I will arrest him and marry him.” All the villagers cheered and shouted: “Go to the wedding, go to the wedding!” The horses of Zheng's mansion led together, embraced Zheng Keshuang, got on the horses and walked back the way they had come. Zheng's companion shouted and hurriedly chased after him, seeing a group of people fleeing in a hurry, but how could they catch up on foot?
Wei Xiaobao smiled and said: "Mr. Zheng is here to invite relatives, it's very wonderful, so the place name here is Gao Laozhuang." A Ke was frightened and angry, he had already lost his mind, and asked casually: "Is this called Gao Laozhuang? Wei Xiaobao said: "Yes. In Journey to the West, isn't there a book called 'Zhu Bajie Gao Laozhuang Recruits Marriage'?" A Ke said angrily: "You are Zhu Bajie!" Leaning on a tree by the road, wept stand up.Wei Xiaobao said: "Senior sister, Mr. Zheng marrying a wife is a happy event, why are you crying instead?" A Ke wanted to scold him again, but after thinking about it, this little devil has great powers, and only by asking him for help can he save Mr. Zheng back, crying: "Junior brother, how could you think of a way to save him from danger." Wei Xiaobao opened his eyes wide, pretending to be very surprised, and said: "You said to save him? He didn't kill anyone, so he won't take his life." A Ke said: "Didn't you hear? Those people are going to force him to go with that Country girls come to marry you." Wei Xiaobao smiled and said, "It's very good to marry you." Lowering his voice, he whispered: "I just want to marry you, but it's a pity you don't want to." A Ke rolled his eyes at him , said: "People are dying of anxiety, you are still talking nonsense, see if I will pay attention to you in the future?" Wei Xiaobao said: "Master said, Mr. Zheng's conduct is not good, it will be of great benefit to let him suffer. What's more It's not hard to be married, and Mr. Zheng is probably very happy. Otherwise, how could he go to this girl last night and make up with her?" A Ke slapped her right foot on the ground , Angrily said: "You are just blind, and you are not three or four." On this day, A Ke intentionally found troubles to delay the journey. When he was tipping, he cut a knife on the mule's hind hoof. The mule limped and walked very slowly. After only walking more than ten miles, it came to a town. rested. Wei Xiaobao knew that she would definitely rush to rescue Zheng Keshuang at night, after dinner, when everyone in the inn fell asleep, he went to the stable and fell asleep on the haystack.Sure enough, before the hour of the first watch shift, the sound of footsteps was heard faintly, and a dark figure walked past the stable to lead the horse.Wei Xiaobao called out in a low voice: "Someone stole the horse!" That person was A Ke, startled, turned around and wanted to run away, then recognized Wei Xiaobao's voice, and asked: "Xiaobao, is that you?" Wei Xiaobao smiled and said, "Of course it's me." Ake said: " What are you doing here?" Wei Xiaobao said: "The mountain man has a clever plan, and he expected that someone would be a horse thief tonight, so he stayed here to catch the thief." A Ke spat and begged: "Xiaobao, you go with me... ...go get him back." Hearing her begging softly, Wei Xiaobao couldn't help but feel his bones crumble, and said with a smile, "If you rescue him, what reward will you have?" A Ke said, "You can have whatever you want..." Originally, I wanted to say that you can do whatever you want , Immediately thought: "This little devil must want me to marry him, so how can I get it." Before finishing a sentence, he changed his words: "You...you always try to bully me, and never really help me .” Having said this, he began to sob and cry.It was true that she was crying, but what she thought of was Zheng Keshun's frivolity, and the fact that he was in danger, whether he had worshiped or married. When Wei Xiaobao cried like this, his heart suddenly softened, and he sighed: "Okay, okay! I'll go with you." Ake was overjoyed, sobbing and said: "Thank... Thank you." Wei Xiaobao said "You don't have to thank me, but I don't know where Gao Laozhuang is." A Ke was startled, but then understood that he said "Gao Laozhuang" and scolded Zheng Keshuang, and said in a low voice, "Let's find it all the way there." That's it." The two quietly opened the back door of the inn, led the horse out of the inn, and rode on, galloping back the same way.Wei Xiaobao said: "What's so good about Mr. Zheng, you like him so much?" A Ke said: "Who said you like him? But... But we got to know each other once, and he was in danger, so naturally we have to save him." Wei Xiaobao Said: "If someone catches me to worship and marry, will you save me?" Ake smiled and said: "Are you so beautiful? Who will catch you to worship and marry?" Wei Xiaobao sighed: "Look at me Not pleasing to the eye, maybe there is a girl who looks handsome and handsome to me?" A Ke said with a smile: "Thank God for that, so that you won't be haunting me all the time." Wei Xiaobao said: "Okay, you are so heartless. If someone arrests you to marry you, I will not save you." A Ke was slightly startled, thinking that if this kind of thing really happened, he must be rescued, and said faintly: "You will definitely come to save me." Wei Xiaobao said: "Why?" A Ke said: " People bully me, you will never stand idly by, who told you that you are my younger brother?" Wei Xiaobao heard these words, and felt very happy in his heart. While speaking, he approached the place where he met the heroes of Prince Mu's residence recently, and saw more than ten people sitting on the ground by the roadside, holding lanterns in their hands, they were the companions of Zheng's residence.Ake Lema immediately asked: "Where is Mr. Zheng?" All the companions stood up, and one of them said with a mournful face: "In the ancestral hall over there." He pointed to the northwest corner.A Ke asked: "Ancestral hall, what are you doing?" The companion said: "These country people invited the young master to go, and forced him to worship and marry him. If the young master refused, they beat and kicked him very fiercely." A Ke said angrily: "You...huh...you are all masters, how come you can't even beat a few countrymen?" All the companions should be ashamed and bowed their heads.One person said: "These country people have martial arts." A Ke said angrily: "They have martial arts, and you don't even care about your master? We are going to save people, you lead the way." An elderly companion said: "Those country folks said that if we go again, they will kill us one by one." A Ke said: "If you kill us, we will kill you. What are you afraid of? The king of the county wants you to protect the young master, but This kind of covetousness and fear of death!" The companion said: "Yes, yes. It's best...it's best to ask the girls not to ride the horse, in case they are alarmed." A Ke snorted, jumped off the horse with Wei Xiaobao, tied the horse On the roadside tree.The companions should put down the lanterns and lead the two to go northwest. After walking for a few miles, he passed through a forest and a cemetery, and came to the outside of seven or eight big houses, where there was the sound of drums and gongs.A Ke was anxious in her heart: "Is he really paying homage?" Pulling Wei Xiaobao's sleeve, he ran quickly, went around to the side of the house, saw a door half open, looking in it was dark and no one was there.The two of them dodged past, followed the sound of gongs and drums to the hall, squatted down, and opened themselves through the crack of the window. Seeing the scene in the hall, A Ke was in a hurry, but Wei Xiaobao was extremely happy. I saw a few red flowers on Zheng Keshun's hair, standing opposite a woman in a red scarf.A lot of candles were brightly lit in the hall, and a few countrymen were beating gongs and drums and making noises.Wu Lishen shouted: "Worship again, worship again!" Zheng Keshun said: "Heaven and Earth have already bowed, so what else is there to worship?" A Ke was so angry that she almost fainted. Wu Lishen shook his head and said: "It's our rule here that the groom has to bow to the bride one hundred times. You only bowed thirty times, and you have to bow seventy times." Ao Biao lifted his foot and kicked Zheng Keshuang's ass , Zheng Keshun hesitated to stand, and knelt down.Ao Biao held his head down and shouted: "You are the bridegroom today, if you kowtow a few more times, what's the point?" Wei Xiaobao knew that they were delaying the time, waiting for his arrival, this kind of good show was rarely seen in his life, he might as well watch it for a while, he was not in a hurry to go in to save people.But A Ke couldn't bear it anymore, kicked open the long window with a bang, jumped in with a single knife in her hand, and shouted: "Let him go quickly! Otherwise, the girls will kill you all one by one!" Wu Lishen smiled and said, "Girl, are you here to drink wedding wine? How do you use a knife and a gun?" A Ke took a step forward and slashed at Ao Biao with a knife. In her anger, she slashed fiercely. .Ao Biao hastily jumped away, and raised the bench behind him to attack the enemy.Although A Ke has no internal strength, her martial arts moves are quite exquisite. Ao Biao's bench is not in his hand, but she is forced to back again and again.Wu Lishen smiled and said: "Hey, it's not bad." He stretched out his hand to take it, his martial arts are much higher than Ao Biao's, and with just a pair of fleshy palms, he pierced between the blades of her blade.Zheng Keshuang jumped up and wanted to help, but was knocked to the ground by two punches on his vest. A Ke made seven or eight moves, seeing that she couldn't resist the enemy, she shouted: "Junior brother, junior brother, come quickly." But Wei Xiaobao shouted outside the window: "It's amazing, I'm fighting with you." He heard the window again Punching and kicking, obviously Wei Xiaobao was fighting fiercely. When Wu Lishen heard Wei Xiaobao's arrival, he quickly winked and shouted: "Who is it!" Two of his disciples rushed forward, using their weapons, and took A Ke's lancet.Wu Li jumped out of the hall, but saw that Wei Xiaobao was alone, kicking the long window with a bang, where was anyone fighting him?Wu Lishen almost burst out laughing, and shouted: "Everyone stop! What are you kid doing here?" Wei Xiaobao shouted: "My senior sister asked me to save this person, please let him go quickly! Oh, no, you The country guy is really good at martial arts." He yelled and ran out the door.Wu Lishen chased after him with a smile. When he came outside the ancestral hall, Wei Xiaobao stopped walking and said with a smile: "Second brother, thank you very much, this matter is very interesting." Wu Lishen smiled and said: "Is that girl my brother's sweetheart? Sure enough, both martial arts and character Also... also...hehe, not bad." He has a rough and bold nature, and A Ke is extremely beautiful, so he doesn't think there is anything special about it, but he admires her for her subtle moves. Wei Xiaobao sighed, and said: "It's a pity that she only wants to marry that brat and refuses to marry me. If you can force that brat to marry a country girl, if you can force her to marry me..." A brainstorm struck , said: "Second brother, please help me to the end. I pretend to be captured by you, and then you go capture that girl and force me to marry him. Do you think it is good?" Wu Lishen laughed out loud, shook his head involuntarily, and hurriedly said: "Very good, very good, brother, don't mind, I'm used to shaking my head, but... but..." When it came to this, he was quite hesitant.Wei Xiaobao asked: "But what?" Wu Lishen said: "We are chivalrous, it's okay to joke around, brother, don't worry, a brother speaks honestly, but the precept of lusting for money and lust is absolutely forbidden. .” Wei Xiaobao said: "Naturally. She is my senior sister, and after my marriage, she is the wife that my matchmaker is marrying. Second brother, you are a matchmaker, and worshiping heaven and earth means that you are marrying, right? It's not about picking flowers and whoring, what kind of greed is there?" Lustful?" Wu Lishen said: "Yes, yes. Brother, promise me that you will not do anything that is not chivalrous...to this girl." Wei Xiaobao said: "Don't worry about one hundred and twenty. Once a real man speaks his word, no horse will be hard to catch." Wu Lishen was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "I knew you were a famous hero. This girl married you, it was her luck." Wei Xiaobao smiled and said: "You are a matchmaker, and I always invite you for this cup of wedding wine. Drink it." Wu Lishen smiled and said: "It's wonderful! Brother, I'm going to do it." Wei Xiaobao put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "You're welcome." Wu Lishen grabbed both of his wrists with his left hand, loudly said: "Look where you are still fleeing to!" and pushed him into the hall.I saw that the single knife in A Ke's hand had been shot down, and the three weapons pointed at the back of her front.Although Ao Biao and others restrained her, they knew that she was Wei Xiaobao's sweetheart, so they didn't dare to be rude. Wu Lishen took off his belt, tied Wei Xiaobao's hands behind his back, pushed him to sit on the chair, and went over to tie up A Ke as well.Wei Xiaobao couldn't stop cursing.Wu Lishen yelled: "Little brat, curse again, I poached your eyeballs." Wei Xiaobao said: "I want to scold you, stinky thief!" A Ke said in a low voice: "Junior brother, stop scolding, lest you suffer immediate losses. "Wei Xiaobao just shut up. Wu Lishen said: "This girl also understands the truth, and her personality is not bad, very good, very good. I have a brother who hasn't married a wife yet, so let's marry her as my sister-in-law today." A Ke was shocked. , hurriedly said: "No, no!" Wu Lishen said angrily: "Why not? A big girl always wants to marry. My brother is a hero, and he will not humiliate you. Why not? Really not Play music." Ao Biao and others picked up the gongs and drums and started beating, thumping, it was very lively. Nothing in A Ke's life was more terrified than at this moment, thinking that this countryman is so rough and dirty, his younger brother will never get well, if he loses himself to such a country bastard, even if he commits suicide immediately, it will be too late.She bit her lip tightly, too frightened to speak.Wu Lishen smiled and said, "Very good, you agreed." With a wave of his right hand, everyone stopped beating the gongs and drums. A Ke shouted: "No, I don't agree. Kill me quickly!" Wu Lishen said: "Okay, I will kill you right now, and I will kill your junior brother too." He took it from Ao Biao's hand. Steel knife, raised high.A Ke cried, "Hurry up and kill him. If you don't kill him, you are not a good man. You... you kill my junior brother quickly, first... kill him first." Wu Lishen glanced at Wei Xiaobao, and said in his heart: "This girl is so ruthless to you, why do you marry her?" Wei Xiaobao also scolded in his heart: "Stinky girl, why did you kill me first?" Wu Lishen said angrily: "I just didn't want to kill your junior brother. Ah Gou, drag this brat out and chop him up!" He pointed at Zheng Keshun.Ao Biao replied, "Yes." Then he went to pull Zheng Keshuang. A Ke exclaimed: "No, don't hurt him...he can't be killed. His father... his father..." Wu Lishen said: "Forget it! Then will you be my sister-in-law?" A Ke cried: "No, no, you... you can kill me." Wu Lishen threw down the steel knife, raised a horsewhip, He shouted: "I won't kill you, I will give you a hundred lashes first." The anger in my heart was so intense that I couldn't stop it for a moment, I raised my whip to the air with a bang, and with a false blow, I was about to lash her. Wei Xiaobao shouted: "Wait a minute!" Wu Li stood in mid-air with his whip and immediately struck it down, asking: "What?" Wei Xiaobao said: "We are heroes, we value loyalty. Senior sister and I are like brothers and sisters, this hundred whips, You hit me." Seeing Wu Lishen raising his whip aggressively, A Ke panicked in fright. Hearing what Wei Xiaobao said, he was overjoyed and said, "Junior brother, you are really a good person." Wei Xiaobao said to Wu Lishen: "Hey, brother, I will take care of everything. This is called a man who is not afraid of danger and stands up. You can't force her to marry your brother. If you have any sisters who can't get married, Let me come and marry her. Mr. Zheng has already married one, and I will marry another one. If I lose two, it will be almost the same? Even if there are still others, marry me together. The ancient brains are all collected..." When he said this, Wu Lishen and others all laughed.A Ke couldn't help but also found it funny, but she only laughed for a while, and shed tears again when she thought of how wronged she had been.Wu Lishen smiled and said: "You are a handsome boy, but you are a man. I wanted to let you go, but I was scared by just giving you a few empty words. I am too pussy. The wedding must be done. Is it you worshiping the church, or her?" A Ke was eager to get away, and hurriedly said: "It's him, it's him!" Wu Lishen stared at her, and said loudly, "You said you want him to marry you?" A Ke felt a little ashamed, bowed her head and said, "Yes." Wu Lishen Said: "Okay!" Pointing at Wei Xiaobao, he said loudly: "Today you must marry someone." Wei Xiaobao looked at A Ke and said: "I...I..." A Ke said in a low voice: "Junior Brother, you rescued me from a catastrophe today, I will never forget it, so just agree!" Wei Xiaobao said with a sad face: " You want me to marry you? Sigh, you know, this matter is very embarrassing." A Ke said in a low voice, "I know, if you don't do me a big favor today, I will have to kill myself. I... have no choice but to Please. They're...they're nasty." Wei Xiaobao said loudly: "Senior Sister, you were the one who begged me today, and I, Wei Xiaobao, had no choice but to agree with you. It was you who begged me to marry me, and I didn't do it myself, did I?" A Ke said, "Yes, yes I beg you. You are a hero, a man who stepped forward to help people in need, and...you listen to me the most." Wei Xiaobao let out a long sigh, and said: "Senior Sister, you understand now that I have a lot of love for you. No matter what you ask me to do, I will agree without frowning. Since you want me to marry you, I naturally agree." A Ke said: "I know you treat me well, and from now on... I will treat you well from now on." Wu Lishen said: "That's the way to do it. Little brother, I don't have a sister to marry you, and my daughter is only three years old. It won't work. Hey, which one of you has sisters and sisters, go and call this little hero. Get married." Ao Biao laughed and said, "I haven't." Another person said: "This little hero is so righteous, if I get married with him, it would be a great luck, but it's a pity that I only have brothers and no sisters." One person said: "My elder sister married a long time ago and has already given birth to eight children. Little hero, if you can wait, when my brother-in-law dies, I will ask my elder sister to remarry you." Wu Lishen said: "I can't wait. Which one is ready?" Everyone shook their heads and said, "No." Everyone seemed to miss the opportunity, which is a pity. Wei Xiaobao said happily: "My friends, it's not that I don't want to, it's just that you don't have sisters, so let us go." Wu Lishen shook his head and said: "No. Once a man speaks a word, it's hard to catch up with a horse. Today we have to visit the hall, otherwise, we will run into the evil god Tai Sui, and everyone here will die. Is this a joke? Okay, you and She's going to marry her." She pointed at A Ke while speaking. A Ke and Wei Xiaobao shouted at the same time: "No, it's not good!" Wu Lishen said angrily: "What's wrong? Little girl, would you like to worship with my brother, or with this little hero? You can choose one yourself." A Ke blushed pretty face, shook her head and said "None!" Wu Lishen said angrily, "At this time, we still have to push back and forth. The time has come, I missed this good time, and the evil spirits came, and no one here can survive. Hey, Ah San, Ah Gou, these two little ones If the guy refuses to marry, cut off both of their noses." Ao Biao and a junior agreed in unison, picked up the steel knife, and wiped the blade on A Ke's nose a few times. A Ke was not afraid of death, but when she thought of cutting off her nose, it would be extremely ugly, and she was so shocked that her face turned pale. Wei Xiaobao said: "Don't cut off my senior sister's nose, just cut mine." Wu Lishen said: "I want to cut off two noses to sacrifice to the god of evil, but you only have one. Hey, Mr. Zheng, cut off your nose to replace this girl, okay?" A Ke looked at Zheng Keshuang, begging for mercy .Zheng Keshun turned his head, not daring to look at her, but shook his head.Wu Lishen said: "This kid is not willing, but your junior brother is willing. Hey, your junior brother treats you much better. If this kind of person doesn't marry, who will he marry? Pay homage and play music!" Amidst the sound of gongs and drums, Ao Biao went to take off the turban from the fake bride's head, put it on A Ke's head, and untied her.A Ke punched him, and hit his chest with a slap. Fortunately, he didn't have much internal strength, although he hit, it didn't hurt much.Ao Biao put the steel knife across the back of her neck. Wu Lishen saluted and said: "Bride and groom, bless the sky!" A Ke felt a chill on the back of her neck and a slight pain. She had no choice but to kneel down side by side with Wei Xiaobao.Wu Lishen shouted again: "The bride and groom bow to the ground." Ao Biao pushed her body and bowed inwards. Amid the sound of "husband and wife bowing together", the two knelt down opposite each other and bowed a few times. Wu Lishen laughed loudly, and shouted: "The new couple thank you for the matchmaker." A Ke was extremely angry, and suddenly kicked him in the lower abdomen.This kick was really not light, Wu Lishen let out a loud "heh", stepped back a few steps, couldn't help coughing, and said with a smile: "The bride is so fierce, even kicking the matchmaker!"
At this moment, I suddenly heard whistles outside the ancestral hall. There were footsteps in the southeast, northwest, and there were at least forty or fifty people.Wu Lishen suppressed his smile, and said in a low voice, "Blow out the candles." The ancestral hall was completely dark. Wei Xiaobao rushed to A Ke's side, held her hand, and said in a low voice: "The enemy is coming outside." A Ke was very angry, sobbing: "I... I worshiped you." Wei Xiaobao whispered ：“我这是求之不得，只不过拜天地拜得太马虎了些。”阿珂怒道：“不算数的。你道是真的么？”韦小宝道：“那还有假？这叫做生米煮成熟饭，木已成狗。”阿珂呜咽道：“什么木已成狗？木已成舟。”韦小宝道：“是，是，木已成舟。娘子学问好，以后多教教我相公。”阿珂听他居然老了脸皮，称起“娘子、相公”来，心中一急，哭了出来。 却听得祠堂外呼声大震，数十人齐声呐喊，若兽吼，若牛鸣，叽哩咕噜，浑不知叫些什么。阿珂心中害怕，不自禁向韦小宝靠去。韦小宝伸臂搂住她，低声道：“别怕，好像是大批西藏喇嘛来攻。”阿珂道：“那怎么办？”韦小宝拉着她手臂，悄悄走到神龛之后。 突然间火光耀眼，数十人拥进祠堂来，手中都执着火把兵刃，韦小宝和阿珂一见之下，都是大吃一惊。这群人脸上涂得花花绿绿，头上插了鸟羽，上身赤裸，腰间围着兽皮，胸口臂上都绘了花纹，原来是一群生番。阿珂见这群蛮子人不像人，鬼不像鬼，个个面目狰狞，更加怕得厉害，缩在韦小宝怀里只是发抖。 众蛮子哇哇狂叫，当先一人喝道：“汉人，不好，都杀了！蛮子，好人，要杀人！咕花吐鲁，阿巴斯里！”众蛮子纵声大叫，说的都是蛮话。 吴立身是云南人，懂得夷语，但这些蛮子的话却半句不懂，用夷语说道：“我们汉人是好人，大家不杀。”那蛮子首领仍道：“汉人，不好，都杀了。咕花吐鲁，阿巴斯里。”众蛮子齐叫：“咕花吐鲁，阿巴斯里。”举起大刀钢叉杀来。众人无奈，只得举兵刃迎敌。 数合一过，吴立身等个个大为惊异。原来众蛮子武艺精熟，兵刃上招数中规中矩，一攻一守，俱合尺度，全非乱砍乱杀。再拆得数招，韦小宝和阿珂也看了出来。吴立身边打边叫：“大家小心，这些蛮子学过我们汉人武功，不可轻忽。” 为首蛮子叫道：“汉人杀法，蛮子都会，不怕汉人。咕花吐鲁，阿巴斯里。” 蛮子人多，武功又甚了得。沐王府人众个个以一敌三，或是以一敌四，顷刻间便迭遇凶险。吴立身挥刀和那首领狠斗，竟占不到丝毫便宜，越斗越惊，忽听得“啊啊”两声叫，两名弟子受伤倒地。又过片刻，敖彪腿上被猎叉戳中，一交摔倒，三名蛮人扑上擒住。 不多时之间，沐王府十余人全被打倒。郑克塽早就遍体是伤，稍一抵抗就被按倒。众蛮子身上带有牛筋，将众人绑缚起来。那蛮子首领跳上跳下，大说蛮话。 吴立身暗暗叫苦，待要脱身而逃，却挂念着韦小宝和众弟子，当下奋力狠斗，只盼能制服这首领，逼他们罢手放人。突然那首领迎头挥刀砍下，吴立身举刀挡格，当的一声，手臂隐隐发麻，突觉背后一棍着地扫来，急忙跃起闪避。那首领单刀一翻，已架在他颈中，叫道：“汉人，输了。蛮人，不输了。” 韦小宝心道：“这蛮子好笨，不会说'赢了'，只会说'不输了'！” 吴立身摇头长叹，掷刀就缚。 众蛮子举起火把到处搜寻。韦小宝眼见藏身不住，拉了阿珂向外便奔，叫道：“蛮子，好人，我们两个，都是蛮子。咕花吐鲁，阿巴斯里。”那首领一伸手，抓住阿珂后领。另外三名蛮子扑将上来，抱住了韦小宝。韦小宝只叫得半句“咕花……”便住了口。 蛮子首领一见到他，忽然脸色有异，伸臂将他抱住，叫道：“希呼阿布，奇里温登。”抱住了他走出祠堂。韦小宝大惊，转头向阿珂叫道：“娘子，这蛮子要杀我，你可得给我守寡，不能改嫁这……”话未说完，已给抱出大门。那蛮子首领奔出十余丈外，将韦小宝放了下来，说道：“桂公公，怎么你在这里？”语调中显得又是惊奇，又是欢喜。 韦小宝惊喜交集，道：“你……你这蛮子识得我？”那人笑道：“小人是杨溢之，平西王府的杨溢之。桂公公认不出罢，哈哈。”韦小宝哈哈大笑，正要说话，杨溢之拉住他手，说道：“咱们再走远些说话，别让人听见了。”两人又走出了二十余丈，这才停住。杨溢之道：“在这里竟会遇到桂公公，真教人欢喜得紧。” 韦小宝问道：“杨大哥怎么到了这里，又扮成了咕花吐鲁，阿巴斯里？”杨溢之笑道：“有一大批家伙在河间府聚会，想要不利于我们王爷，王爷得到了讯息，派小人来查探。” 韦小宝暗暗心惊，脑中飞快的转着主意，说道：“上次沐王府那批家伙入宫行刺，陷害平西王……”杨溢之忙道：“多承公公云天高义，向皇上奏明，洗刷了平西王的冤屈。我们王爷感激不已，时常提起，只盼能向公公亲口道谢。”韦小宝道：“道谢是不敢当。蒙王爷这样瞧得起，我在皇上身边，有什么事能帮王爷一个小忙，那总是要办的。这次皇上得知，有一群反贼要在河间府聚会，又想害平西王，我就自告奋勇，过来瞧瞧。” 杨溢之大喜，说道：“原来皇上已先得知，反贼们的奸计就不得逞了。那当真好极了。小人奉王爷之命，混进了那他妈的狗头大会之中。听到他们推举各省盟主，想加害我王爷。不瞒桂公公说，我们心中实是老大担忧。明枪易躲，暗箭难防，反贼们倘若胆敢到云南来动手，不是小人夸口，来一千，捉一千，来一万，杀一万；怕的却是他们像上次沐家众狗贼那样，胡作非为，嫁祸于我们王爷，那可是无穷的后患。” 韦小宝一拍胸膛，昂然道：“请杨大哥去禀告王爷，一点不用担心。我一回到京里，就将那狗头大会里的事，一五一十，十五二十，详详细细的奏知皇上。他们跟平西王作对，就是跟皇上作对。他们越是恨平西王，越显得王爷对皇上忠心耿耿。皇上一喜欢，别说平西王爷，连你杨大哥也是重重有赏，升官发财，不在话下。” 杨溢之喜道：“全仗桂公公大力周旋。小人自己倒不想升官发财。王爷于先父有大恩，曾救了小人全家性命。先父临死之时曾有遗命，吩咐小人誓死保护王爷周全。公公，你到这里，是来探听沐家众狗贼的阴谋么？” 韦小宝一拍大腿，说道：“杨大哥，你不但武功了得，而且料事如神，佩服，佩服。我和师姊乔装改扮了，来探听他们捣些什么鬼，却给他们发觉了。我胡说八道一番，他们居然信以为真，反逼我和师姊当场拜堂成亲，哈哈，这叫做因祸得福了。” 杨溢之心想：“你是太监，成什么亲？啊，是了，你和那小姑娘假装是一对情侣，骗信了他们。”说道：“这摇头狮子武功不错，却是有勇无谋。”韦小宝道：“你们假扮蛮子，为的是捉拿他们？”杨溢之道：“沐家跟我们王府仇深似海，上次吃了他们这大亏，一直还没翻本。这次在狗头大会之中又见了他们。小人心下盘算，倘若在直隶闹出事来，皇上知道了，只怕要怪罪我们王爷，说平西王府的人在京师附近不遵守王法，杀人生事。” 韦小宝大拇指一翘，赞道：“杨大哥这计策高明得紧，你们扮成蛮子生番，咕花吐鲁，阿巴斯里，就算把沐家一伙人尽数杀了，旁人也只道是蛮子造反，谁也不会疑心到平西王身上。”杨溢之笑道：“正是。只不过我们扮成这般希奇古怪的模样，倒教公公见笑了。”韦小宝道：“什么见笑？我心里可羡慕得紧呢。我真想脱了衣服，脸上画得花花绿绿，跟你们大叫大跳一番。”杨溢之笑道：“公公要是有兴，咱们这就装扮起来。”韦小宝叹了口气，说道：“这一次是不行了，我老婆见到我这等怪模怪样，定要大发脾气。” 杨溢之道：“公公当真娶了夫人？不是给那些狗贼逼着假装的么？”这却不易三言两语就说得明白，韦小宝便改换话题，说道：“杨大哥，我跟你投缘得很，你如瞧得起，咱们两个便结拜成了金兰兄弟，不用公公、小人的，听着可多别扭。” 杨溢之大喜，一来平西王正有求于他，今后许多大事，都要仗他在皇上面前维持；二来这小公公为人慷慨豪爽，很够朋友，当日在康亲王府中，就对自己十分客气，便道：“那是求之不得，就怕高攀不上。”韦小宝道：“什么高攀低攀？咱们比比高矮，是你高呢还是我高？”杨溢之哈哈大笑。两人当即跪了下来，撮土为香，拜了八拜，改口以兄弟相称。 杨溢之道：“兄弟，咱俩今后情同骨肉，非比寻常，只不过在别人之前，做哥哥的还是叫你公公，以免惹人疑心。”韦小宝道：“这个自然。大哥，沐家那些人，你要拿他们怎么样？”杨溢之道：“我抓他们去云南，慢慢拷打，拿到了陷害我们王爷的口供之后，解到京里，好让皇上明白平西王赤胆忠心，也显得兄弟先前力保平西王，半分也没保错。” 韦小宝点头道：“很好，很好！大哥，你想那摇头老虎肯招么？”杨溢之道：“是摇头狮子吴立身。这人在江湖上也颇有名望，听说为人十分硬气，他是不肯招的。我敬他是条汉子，也不会如何难为他。可是其余那些人，总有几个熬不住刑，会招了出来。”韦小宝道：“不错，计策不错。”杨溢之听他语气似在随口敷衍，便道：“兄弟，我你已不是外人，你如以为不妥，还请直言相告。” 韦小宝道：“不妥什么的倒是没有，听说沐家有个反贼叫沐剑声的，还有个硬背乌龙柳什么的人。”杨溢之道：“铁背苍龙柳大洪。他是沐剑声的师父。”韦小宝道：“是了，大哥，你记性真好。皇上吩咐，要查明这两个人的踪迹。你也捉住了他们么？”杨溢之道：“沐剑声也到河间府去了，我们一路撮着下来，一到献县，却给他溜了，不知躲到了哪里。” 韦小宝道：“这就有些为难了。我刚才胡说八道，已骗得那摇头狮子变成了点头狮子，说要带我去见他们小公爷。我本想查明他们怎生阴谋陷害平西王，回去奏知皇上。大哥既有把握，可以将他们的阴谋拷打出来，那也一样，倒不用兄弟冒险了。” 杨溢之寻思：“我拷打几个无足轻重之人，他们未必知道真正内情，就算知道，沐家那些狗贼骨头很硬，也未必肯说。再说，由王爷自己辩白，万万不如皇上亲自派下来的人查明回奏，来得有力。倘若我们装作不知，由桂兄弟去自行奏告皇上，那可好得太多了。”当即拉着韦小宝的手，说道：“兄弟，你的法子高明得多，一切听你的。咱们怎生去放了沐家那些狗贼，教他们不起疑心？”韦小宝道：“那要你来想法子。” 杨溢之沉吟片刻，道：“这样罢。你逃进祠堂去，假意奋勇救你师姊，我追了进来，两人乱七八糟大讲蛮话。讲了一阵，我给你说服了，恭敬行礼而去，那就不露半点痕迹。”韦小宝笑道：“妙极，我桂公公精通蛮话。那是有出戏文的，唐明皇手下有个李什么的有学问先生，喝醉了酒，一篇文章做了出来，只吓得众蛮子屁滚尿流。”杨溢之笑道：“这是李太白醉草吓蛮书。” 韦小宝拍手道：“对，对！桂公公醒讲吓蛮话，一样的了不起。大哥，咱们可须装得似模似样，你向我假意拳打足踢，我毫不受伤。啊，是了，我上身穿有护身宝衣背心，刀枪不入。你不妨向我砍上几刀，只消不使内力，不震伤五脏六腑，那就半点没事。”杨溢之道：“兄弟有此宝衣，那太好了。”韦小宝吹牛：“皇上派我出来探查反贼的逆谋，怕给他们知觉杀了我，特地从身上脱下这件西洋红毛国进贡来的宝衣，赐了给我。大哥，你不用怕伤了我，先砍上几刀试试。” 杨溢之拔出刀来，在他左肩轻轻一划，果然刀锋只划破外衣，遇到内衣时便划不进去，手上略略加劲，又在他左肩轻轻斩了一刀，仍是丝毫不损，赞道：“好宝衣，好宝衣！” 韦小宝道：“大哥，里面有个姓郑的小子，就是那个穿着华丽的绣花枕头公子爷，这家伙老是向我师姊勾勾搭搭，兄弟见了生气得很，最好你们捉了他去。”杨溢之道：“我将他一掌毙了便是。”韦小宝道：“杀不得，杀不得。这人是皇上要的，将来要着落在他身上，办一件大事。请你捉了他去，好好看守起来，不可难为他，也不要盘问他什么事。过得二三十年，我来向你要，你就差人送到北京来罢。” 杨溢之道：“是，我给你办得妥妥当当的。”突然间提高声音，大叫：“胡鲁希都，爱里巴拉！嘘老嘘老！”低声笑道：“咱俩说了这会子话，只怕他们要疑心了。”韦小宝也尖声大叫，说了一连串“蛮话”。杨溢之笑道：“兄弟的'蛮话'，比起做哥哥的来，可流利得多了。”韦小宝笑道：“这个自然，兄弟当年流落番邦，番邦公主要想招我为驸马，那蛮话是说惯了的。”杨溢之哈哈大笑。 韦小宝又道：“大哥，我有一件事好生为难，你得帮我想个法子。” 杨溢之一拍胸膛，慨然道：“兄弟有什么事，做哥哥的把这条性命交了给你也成，只要你吩咐，无有不遵。”韦小宝叹道：“多谢了，这件事说难不难，说易却也是十分不易。”杨溢之道：“兄弟说出来，我帮你琢磨琢磨。倘若做哥哥的办不了，我去求我们王爷。几万兵马，几百万两银子，也调动得出来。”韦小宝微微一笑，说道：“千军万马，金山银山，只怕都是无用。那是我师姊，她给逼着跟我拜堂成亲，心中可老大不愿意。最好你有什么妙法，帮我生米煮成熟饭，弄他一个木已成舟。” 杨溢之忍不住好笑，心想：“原来如此，我还道是什么大事，却原来只不过要对付一个小姑娘。但你是太监，怎能娶妻？是了，听说明朝太监常有娶几个老婆的事，兄弟想是也要来搞这一套玩意儿，过过干瘾。”想到他自幼被净了身，心下不禁难过，携着韦小宝的手，说道：“兄弟，人生在世，不能事事顺遂。古往今来大英雄、大豪杰，身有缺陷之人极多，那也不必在意。我们进去罢。” 韦小宝道：“好！”口中大叫“蛮话”，拔足向祠堂内奔了进去。杨溢之仗刀赶来，也是大呼“蛮话”，一进大厅，便将韦小宝一把抓住。两人你一句“希里呼噜”，我一句“阿依巴拉”，说个不休，一面指指吴立身，又指着阿珂。 吴立身和阿珂等又惊又喜，心下都存了指望，均想：“幸亏他懂得蛮子话，最好能说得众蛮子收兵而去。” 杨溢之提起刀来，对准阿珂的头顶，说道：“女人，不好，杀了。”韦小宝忙道：“老婆，我的，不杀！”杨溢之道：“老婆，你的，不杀？”韦小宝连连点头，说道：“老婆，我的，不杀！”杨溢之大怒，喝道：“老婆，你的，不杀。杀你！” 韦小宝道：“很好，老婆，我的，不杀。杀我！” 杨溢之呼的一刀，砍向韦小宝胸口。这一刀劈下去时刀风呼呼，劲力极大，但刀锋一碰到韦小宝身上，立即收劲，手腕一抖，那刀反弹了回来。他假装大吃一惊，跳起身来，连砍三刀，在韦小宝衣襟上划了三条长缝，大声叫道：“你，菩萨，杀不死？”韦小宝点头道：“我，菩萨，杀不死。” 杨溢之大拇指一翘，说道：“你，菩萨，不是的。大英雄，是的。”指指吴立身等人，问道：“汉人，杀了？”韦小宝摇手道：“朋友，我的，不杀。”杨溢之点点头，问阿珂道：“你，老婆，大英雄的？” 阿珂见他手中明晃晃的钢刀，想要否认，却又不敢。杨溢之一刀疾劈，将一张供桌削为两爿，喝道：“老公，你的？”指着韦小宝。阿珂无奈，只得低声道：“老公，我的。” 杨溢之哈哈大笑，提起阿珂，送到韦小宝身前，说道：“老婆，你的，抱抱。” 韦小宝张开双臂，将阿珂紧紧抱住，说道：“老婆，我的，抱抱。” 杨溢之指着郑克塽，问道：“儿子，你的？”韦小宝摇头道：“儿子，我的，不是！”杨溢之大叫几句“蛮话”，抓住郑克塽，奔了出去，口中连声呼啸。他手下从人一拥而出。只听得马蹄声响，竟自去了。
阿珂惊魂略定，只觉韦小宝双臂仍是抱住自己的腰不放，说道：“放开手。”韦小宝道：“老婆，我的，抱抱。”阿珂又羞又怒，用手一挣，挣脱了他的手臂。 韦小宝拾起地上一柄钢刀，将吴立身等的绑缚都割断了。吴立身道：“这些蛮子武功好生了得，亏得新郎官会说蛮话，又练了金钟罩铁布衫功夫，刀枪不入，大伙儿得你相救。”韦小宝道：“这些蛮子武功虽高，头脑却笨得很。我胡说一通，他们便都信了。” 阿珂道：“郑公子给他们捉去了，怎生相救才是。” 那假新娘突然大叫：“我老公给蛮子捉了去，定要煮熟来吃了。”放声大哭。 吴立身向韦小宝拱手道：“请教英雄高姓大名。”韦小宝道：“不敢，在下姓韦。”吴立身道：“韦相公和韦家娘子今日成亲，一点小小贺仪，不成敬意。”说着伸手入怀，摸出两只小小的金元宝。韦小宝道：“多谢了。”伸手接过。 阿珂胀红了脸，顿足道：“不是的，不算数的。”吴立身笑道：“你们天地也拜过了，你刚才对那蛮子说过'老公，我的'，怎么还能赖？新娘新郎洞房花烛，我们不打扰了。”一挥手，和敖彪等人大踏步出了祠堂。 霎时之间，偌大一座祠堂中静悄悄地更无人声。 阿珂又是害怕，又是羞愤，向韦小宝偷眼瞧了一眼，想到自己已说过“老公，我的”这话，突然伏在桌上，哭了出来，顿足道：“都是你不好，都是你不好！” 韦小宝柔声道：“是，是，都是我不好。几时我再想个法儿，救了郑公子出来，你就说我好了。”阿珂抬起头来，说道：“你……你能救他出来么？” 红烛摇晃之下，她一张娇艳无伦的脸上带着亮晶晶的几滴泪珠，真是白玉镶珠不足比其容色、玫瑰初露不能方其清丽，韦小宝不由得看得呆了，竟忘了回答。 阿珂拉拉他衣襟，道：“我问你啊，怎么去救郑公子出来？” 韦小宝这才惊觉，叹了口气，说道：“那蛮子头脑说，他们出来一趟，不能空手而回，定要捉一人回去山洞，煮来大伙儿吃了……”阿珂惊叫一声，道：“煮来大伙儿吃了？”想起那“新娘”的惊叫，更是心惊。韦小宝道：“是啊，他们本来说你细皮白肉，滋味最好，要捉你去吃的……”阿珂不自禁的打了个寒战，抬头向门外一张，生怕那些蛮子去而复回。韦小宝续道：“……我说你是我老婆，他们就放过了你。”阿珂急道：“郑公子给他们捉了去，岂不是被他们煮……煮……” 韦小宝道：“是啊，除非我自告奋勇，去让他们吃了，将郑公子换了出来。” 阿珂道：“那你就去换他出来！”这句话一出口，就知说错了，俏脸一红，低下头来。 韦小宝大怒，暗道：“臭小娘，你瞧得你老公不值半文钱，宁可让蛮子将我煮来吃了，好救你的奸夫出来。”冷冷的道：“就算换了他出来，那也没用了？”阿珂急道：“怎……怎么没用了？”韦小宝道：“郑公子已和那乡下姑娘拜堂成亲，你亲眼见到了的。他已有了明媒正娶的老婆，木已成舟，你也嫁他不成了。”阿珂顿足道：“那是假的。”韦小宝气忿忿的道：“好，你要我去换，我就去换。就不知蛮子的山洞在哪里。哼，咱们走罢。” 阿珂默默跟着他走出祠堂，生怕一句话说错，他又不肯去换郑公子了。来到大路，只见郑府众伴当提着灯笼，围着在大声说话。两人走近身去，郑府众伴当道：“陈姑娘来啦，我家公子呢？我家公子呢？”快步迎上。 人丛中一个身材瘦削的人影突然一晃而前，身法极快，韦小宝眼睛一花，便见这人到了身前，听得一个尖锐的声音问道：“我家公子在哪里？”这人背着灯光，韦小宝瞧不见他的脸，心中一惊，退了两步，岂知他退了两步，那人跟着上前两步，仍是和他面对面的站立，相距不到一尺，又问：“我家公子在哪里？” 阿珂道：“他……他给蛮子捉去啦，要……要煮了他来吃了。”那人道：“中原之地，哪来的蛮子？”阿珂道：“是真的蛮子，快……快想法子救他。”那人道：“去了多久？”阿珂道：“没多久。” 那人身子斗然拔起，向后倒跃，落下时刚好骑在一匹马的鞍上，双腿一挟，那马奔驰而去，片刻间没入了黑暗之中。 韦小宝和阿珂面面相觑。一个吃惊，一个欢喜，眼见这人武功之高，身法
