Chapter 26 Chapter 26: Reward and Punishment

The beautiful woman cried: "They said I betrayed the country, how can I betray the country, I am patriotic!" A few Yan Luos had already rushed out of the next room, grabbed the beautiful woman by her hair and dragged her into the room. Li Kui asked Meng Liang, "Who is this lady?" Meng Liangdao: "She is called Concubine Zhen. She was from the Qing Dynasty and was the favorite concubine of Emperor Guangxu. For some reason, she ended up here. Hai Qingtian clearly rewards and punishes her. This Yang Division is very strict and does not allow a villain to join the Division; this lady has Suspected of treason, therefore, Yu Daguan has been interrogated for several months."

Li Kui sighed: "This Yang Division is really strict in enforcing the law, and there is no difference!" Jiao Zan said: "Hai Daguan and Yu Yasi are strict. Those who come to Yangsi, Hai Daguan and Yu Yasi have undergone strict inspection, and no bad person is allowed to join the department. Yu Yasi found out the day before yesterday. Hua Yinyue, the wife of the official Hai, stole a white marble shepherd's pole from Su Wu's corpse, and sold it to a merchant in the Jia Kingdom, so he informed the official Hai. The official Hai immediately sent Yan Luo to take his wife Hua Yinyue into custody. Rise up, punish according to law, and is now on trial."

Li Kui sighed: "In the Kingdom of Heaven, I have never seen such a Qingtian who can punish his wife righteously. He is really a rare upright official in the world. I think Cai Guoshi and Gao Taiwei were corrupt officials when they were in Liangshan. To say that stealing a white marble shepherd pole is to steal all the treasures of the country, the emperor of the Song Dynasty just turned a blind eye and closed one eye." When the three of them came to Yanluoguo market, Meng Liang and Jiao Zan wanted to bid farewell to Li Kui. Li Kui saw that the two of them could not accept their kindness, so he had to agree, and the three of them chose a restaurant and sat down.Meng Liang asked for food and wine, and the three of them let go of their alcohol and drank heavily.

At this time, only a few trumpets were heard on the west side of the street, and two executioners of Yan Luoguo, armed with ghost knives, came to escort a woman, and Hai Rui was sitting in a sedan chair behind, Jiao Zan shouted: "The official Hai is here! Sentenced today." I saw a group of Yan Luo came to the middle of the street, pushed the lady down and knelt in the middle of the street, and two executioners stood on both sides of the screen holding knives. Meng Liang said: "This lady is Hua Yinyue, looking at the situation, she will be sentenced to death." Hai Rui said: "The corrupt woman Hua Yinyue is sentenced to death according to Yan Luoguo's law for stealing the white marble shepherd pole from Su Wu's body, and she will be executed immediately!"

Li Kui said with emotion: "This Hai Qingtian really deserves his reputation!" After drinking, Li Kui bid farewell to Meng Liang and Jiao Zan in tears, and they sent him off to the outside of Yan Luo City.Li Kui pulled out the jade handkerchief from his waist, stepped on and floated in the direction of the upside-down country. After walking for an unknown amount of time, I came to the temple on the outskirts of the Inverted Country, and saw Chen Hongbo in a daze.Li Kui stepped forward, hugged Hong Bo and said happily, "Mr. Chen! Mr. Chen!" Chen Hongbo heard someone calling him, and when he looked up, he saw Li Kui. He was both surprised and happy, and hurriedly said, "Hei Xuanfeng, why did you come here? I Looks like I fell asleep."

Li Kui recounted his experience, and Hong Bo was very pleasantly surprised. Li Kui said again: "Looking at your appearance, I think you are too tired. Let me carry you on my back." Then, he carried Hong Bo on his back and came to the northeast.After walking for a few miles, Li Kui said, "Sir, rest here. I'll go find some wild fruits." Li Kui brought some wild plums, and excitedly came back holding them to have a look. There was no sign of Hong Bo.After searching and searching, I came to a river in front of me, only to see the waves of the river turbulent and turbulent.Li Kui was in a daze, but saw a small boat rowing from the depths of the green reed, and a young fisherman stood on the bow and sang:

Li Kui called to the boatman: "Hey, come here, I'll ask you something." The fisherman saw the call and gently pulled the boat over.Li Kui asked: "Have you seen a scholar?" The fisherman smiled and said: "Yes, yes, I was taken there by some fishermen just now." The fisherman pointed to the green mountains opposite.Li Kui asked again: "What is that place over there?" The fisherman said: "It's Xiaoliang Mountain." When Li Kui heard this, he said happily, "It's Xiaoliang Mountain? Who is the leader now?" The fisherman laughed and said, "It's Li Kui, the famous 'Black Whirlwind' who made trouble in Jiangzhou."

Li Kui was shocked when he heard this, and said: "What? There is also a 'Black Whirlwind' Li Kui here?" The fisherman asked, "Are there still two Li Kui?" Li Kui said again: "How about you crossing the river with me? I will give you silver taels then." The fisherman said: "Okay, let's get on the boat." When Li Kui boarded the boat, the fisherman flicked the penny lightly, and the boat rowed towards the center of the river like an arrow off the string. At this time, following the wind, a small boat came behind, and a young man on the bow also sang:

At this time, only a whistle was heard, and another boat sailed out of the reeds on the left. There was a fisherman standing on the bow, and he also sang: When the fisherman saw the two boats rushing towards him, he flashed his simple knife and said, "Hei Si, do you want a piece of soup or wonton?" Li Kui was stunned, and suddenly came to his senses, and smiled: "Who are you? Don't dare to finish the play in front of Grandpa Li, and tell you the truth, this is all left over from my play!" The fisherman raised his knife and shouted sharply: "Here is Li Huang, the 'Huanjiangjiao'! The black fellow is not bound yet!" He said with a simple knife and chopped it at Li Kui.

When Li Kui saw it, he dodged and kicked Li Huang with his right foot. Seeing this, Li Kui just dodged slightly, then jumped into the water, and disappeared in an instant. Li Kui was complacent when he saw another black head protruding from the bottom of the boat. He stretched out his arms and said with a smile: "The nigger is not yet tied up, 'the black strip in the waves' is here!" He jumped up and turned the boat Turned upside down and turned Li Kui into the water. Li Kui fell into the water, and was caught and tied up by the "Jiaojiang Jiao" Li Huang and the "Black Tiao" Zhang Wei, and then swam to the other side.

When they reached the shore, Li Huang lifted Li Kui ashore, and someone from the shore had already come to meet him.Li Kui saw that there was a group of people on the shore, headed by a young general in white robes. Li Huang stepped forward and said to the young general: "This guy is very powerful, I thought he was a bodyguard, so he is very strong." Li Kui Fu said: "I am still your ancestor! When I went to Liangshan, you were still liquid!" The general asked, "Who are you? How did you get here? Li Kui held his head high and didn't answer." A white-faced gentleman next to him said: "The big man is shocked. My descendants of Liangshan are all heroes. Judging by your appearance, you are also a hero. If you don't mind, please join the gang." As he spoke, he stepped forward to untie Li Kui himself. Mr. Nalang said: "What does that gentleman look like?" Li Kui said: "You are quite handsome, and there are some literary gossips!" Na Langjun smiled and said: "Maybe it is the gentleman who was forced by my brother to join the group just now, and now he is gathering in the hall, and Li Kui, the owner of the village, is talking to him." When Li Kui heard this, he was furious and said: "There will be such a thing in the world? Why is your village owner also called Li Kui, how dare you use your grandfather's name, what a joke!" Li Kui's scolding didn't matter, but he annoyed a straight man next to him, who was barebacked and bare chested, holding a big stick.He stepped forward and shouted: "'Nine Flying Tiger' Shi Qing is here! The thief speaks wild words, let me hit you first!" When Li Kui heard this, he was also furious, and drew out his waist knife to fight Shi Qing. Although Shi Qing was brave, he couldn't compare to Li Kui's proficiency in swordsmanship, and he was defeated in about twenty rounds.Another man over there shouted, "I'm coming!" He stood up and swung his knife to fight Li Kui.Seeing that the man was handsome, Li Kui shouted sharply: "My grandpa Li will not behead the unknown, and the thieves should quickly register their names!" The man scolded: "Pretend to be a ghost and eat my 'tall leopard' Wang Xiong first!" He straightened Li Kui with the knife.Li Kui flashed past lightly, and only swung the saber upwards, and Wang Xiong's mouth burst open and he was defeated. At this time, two more men came up, each holding a flying fork, to fight Li Kui.One of the men with the tiger skin on his waist said: "Here is the solution to the 'two-headed dragon'!" The man with the leopard skin on his waist said: "Here is the solution to the silver from the 'Double Leopard Roar'!" When Li Kui saw the two men coming to fight, he didn't panic. He waved his knife to cover him left and right. Here, Li Huang and Zhang Bi complained to the gentleman, "It was originally my navy that captured this guy, but now you let him go, causing trouble instead, what should I do?!" Seeing that none of them could win, the young general next to him pulled out his double whips, stepped forward and said sharply: "Nigger, eat my double whips first!" Li Kui met him with the whip, and fought him for 20 or 30 rounds. After all, Li Kui was old and weak, and gradually couldn't support him, so he retreated to the back of the mountain. At this time, it was noon, and someone flew to report to the village owner. At this time, the sound of trumpets and drums came from all over the mountain, and the flags on the mountain were everywhere, and the shouts were like thunder. Li Kui looked up, and saw a large village on the mountainside, with a flag raised high on the top of the village, with eight eye-catching characters written on it: "Behead the Jade Emperor, and sweep down corrupt officials".There are dots and countless small villages on the mountainside. The pair of whips Hu Yanyu pursued closely, Li Kui ran along the path behind the mountain, and saw a fat monk coming from the willow forest, and said to Hu Yanyu: "The general has just recovered from his arrow wound, let's rest for a while, and see me as a monk." Lu Yuqian!" As he spoke, he struck Li Kui with his Zen stick, and Li Kui slashed back a few times, then ran to the depths of the mountain. Just after turning around the foot of the mountain, another person who looked like a group of people jumped out with two knives in hand, and the person who walked shouted: "'Xie Zhe' Wu Song is here!" Li Kui didn't dare to love to fight, so he bluffed twice and left. Just as Li Kui turned around Xiaopo, he saw another young woman jumping out of the forest.The lady swung her two knives and rushed at Li Kui. Li Kui held the knives, and the lady shouted sharply: "The 'Sanzhanghong' girl is here! The thief is not bound yet!" When Li Kui heard this, he crossed the knife and said with a smile: "Granddaughter, if I pick a golden flower on your pink face, I'm afraid you won't be able to find your husband's family!" After hearing this, Xiaoniang felt ashamed and annoyed, and slashed three times at Li Kui's head. Li Kui only flashed past lightly, and went back to the front of the mountain. At this time, the village owner and military advisor Wu Wei, Taoist Gongsun Li, general Guan Mai, Dong Bo, Hua Fengchun, etc. were standing on the mountain pass.Li Kui saw that the village owner was very strange, with a fleshy face and a beard, so he shouted sharply: "Pretending to be a ghost, you black whirlwind Grandpa Li is here!" The owner of the village turned out to be the Li Gui who pretended to be himself that Li Kui met in Lijiazhuang when he went down the mountain. Now he sneaked into Liangshan and became the owner of the village. It turned out that after Li Gui heard that Liangshan called for security and that Li Kui was poisoned to death by medicine and wine, he wanted to use Li Kui's reputation to engage in speculation.He also heard that King Luo's "Huanjiang Dragon" Li Jun died of illness, and the Liangshan veteran "Double Whip" Hu Yanzhuo, "Zhen Sanshan" Huang Xin, "Iron Barker" Le He, "Shenxing Taibao" Dai Zong, "Huo Yan" "Luo" Ruan Xiaoqi, the magician Jiang Jing and others were imprisoned and died, and no one knew the real Li Kui, so they used Li Kui's banner to bluff and deceive in heaven.He made up a set of myths that Li Kui was not killed by Song Jiang with poisoned alcohol and drugs, but has been living in Hengshan in seclusion. Li Gui's words won the trust of the descendants of Liangshan. Li Gui first went to Taihu Lake to find "Hunjiangjiao" Li Huang, the son of "Hunjianglong" Li Jun, and "Langli Heitiao" Zhang Wei, the son of "Langli Baitiao" Zhang Shun. Zhang Hao, the son of "Chuanhuoer" Zhang Heng, etc., set up the banner of "walking for the sky" on Xiaoliang Mountain to recruit the descendants of Liangshan. The descendants of Liangshan who lived in seclusion in the heaven heard that Li Kui, the black whirlwind, was not dead, so they recruited soldiers and bought horses in Xiaoliangshan, and rose up, so they came one after another. "Little Empress Cui" Hua Fengchun, "Double Whip" Hu Yanyu, "Big Sword" Guan Mai, "Scholar of Wonderful Calculation" Zhu Wen and others all came.Li Gui went to Shijie Village in Shandong Province to invite Wu Wei, the son of "Smart Star" Wu Yong, "Hui Duo Hai", respected him as a military adviser, and made himself the head of the village. Hu Yanyu, Hua Fengchun, etc. proposed to unite the countries of Luobo, the country of reversal, the country of ghosts, the country of red buildings, the country of Americans, the country of equality, the country of poverty, and the country of perseverance.Organize an army to crusade against the Jade Emperor, make a big disturbance in the heavenly court, and turn the world upside down. Li Gui, who is pretending to be a ghost, has his own little calculations. His motivation to use the banner of Li Kui, recruit troops, and occupy Xiaoliang Mountain is to imitate Song Jiang and wait to be recruited. He colluded with Song Xiu, the son of "Timely Rain" Song Jiang, "Timely Cloud" Together, they secretly dispatched Yan Bai, the son of "prodigal son" Yan Qing, "Fu Zi" to the Lingxiao Hall of the Celestial Dynasty to pay homage to the Jade Emperor, the Queen Mother, and the King of Tota, Li Jing, etc., and pushed Yan Bai to receive the Zhao'an edict through the Celestial Singing Girl Baihua Fairy, and then Ask the Jade Emperor to find him an official position in the Celestial Dynasty, so that he can receive salary from generation to generation and honor his ancestors.Song Xiu also wished that the Celestial Dynasty could be a messenger. Li Gui was waiting for this Yanbai to call for security, but he didn't expect that with a thunderbolt from the sky, the real Li Kui came.The sergeant reported to the Juyi hall. Li Jian heard it, and at first he suspected he had heard it wrong. He said to Wu Wei and the others: "It's really abominable for this guy to pretend to be my name. Every village is strictly guarded, and the fake Li Kui is not allowed to leave." But Li Gui was really flustered, and immediately led Wu Wei, Hua Fengchun and his group to Zhaikou.Li Gui looked at it from a distance, and suddenly his seven orifices were filled with smoke.Isn't the black man standing on the mountainside the same as Li Kui who fed himself a meal of iron fists back then?Back then, he was the one riding on his head while beating and scolding: "See if you have a long memory, and you still pretend to be me?" At that time, I just kept begging for harassment, begging: "Don't dare again! , never dare again!" When Li Gui thought of this, he felt dizzy, his legs trembled, and sweat dripped down his neck.Wu Wei, the military strategist, suddenly became suspicious when he saw it.This Wu Wei is like his father Wu Yong, a smart man, bold and careful, he was thinking about this Li Gui a few days ago and he felt that Li Gui was not like the Li Kui that his mother often talked about.I heard from my mother that Li Kui was straightforward back then, fearless of heaven and earth, and respected his father very much.But the village owner in front of him insisted on recruiting security. If he, Hu Yanyu, Hua Fengchun and others hadn't strongly opposed it, the village owner would have gone to the heaven in person. Moreover, as the head of the village, he did not attack the heavenly soldiers and destroy the corrupt bureaucrats, but he even released Wei Zhongxian, the ambassador of the treacherous country that was kidnapped the day before yesterday.He ordered the looting of the belongings of small merchants and peddlers and tourists; a few months ago, "Tiger Head" Lin Feng rescued a lady, but he forced that lady to be the wife of the village. , let Mrs. Lin take care of her. The more Wu Wei thought about it, the more suspicious he became. At this time, Li Kui from below shouted: "Good, you Li Gui! Back then I didn't beat you to death with one punch, but now I'm pretending to be crazy in the kingdom of heaven!" When Li Gui heard this, he was ashamed and annoyed. He called Hua Fengchun and said, "Shoot this thief to death quickly! lest he confuse the army." Li Kui fell to the ground with an "ouch".
