Li Jun and Li Li drove a boat, Mu Hong and Mu Chun drove a boat, and brothers Tong Wei and Tong Meng also drove a boat. They were all cruising back and forth on the river, waiting to see.
Not long after, in the middle of the practice field, at the place where people separated, a time teller reported loudly: "It's three quarters in the afternoon."
The magistrate Cai Jiu, the supervisor of beheading, said: "Report after beheading!"
The executioner went to open the shackles when the sword and stick were under the two positions; the executioner held the law knife in his hand.
That Dai Zong was familiar with the process of beheading prisoners, and when he heard the time signal, he knew that the executioner was coming to unshackle him, and this was a good opportunity to escape.If you don't run now, when will you wait?
Dai Zong hastily recited the cloud-riding mantra in a low voice: "Looking for the God of Liuding Liujia, the God of Baiyun and Crane Feather Flying. The clouds on the soles of the feet are as fast as the wind, just like I fly in the blue sky. I am entrusted with the order of the Nine Heavens Xuannv..."

That fellow Song Jiang and Dai Zong knelt face to face on the execution ground, their heads almost touching each other, and naturally they could hear Dai Zong chanting incantations.Song Jiang suddenly remembered Dai Zong's nickname of "Shenxing Taibao", and understood that Dai Zong was going to cast a spell to escape, and immediately stared at Dai Zong with a pair of mournful eyes.
Brother Dai Zong, what about the loyalty of the world?You can't leave my brother and run away alone!
At this time, Chao Gai was pretending to be a merchant and guarding the crossroads. He heard the word "cut" in the car, so he took out a small gong from his bosom, stood on the car, and knocked it twice or three times to notify the hidden people around. The heroes work together to save people.
The sound of the gong surprised all the officers and soldiers and the two executioners on the execution ground. At this moment, Dai Zong's shackles were removed.Dai Zong had already completed the technique, and was waiting for this moment. He immediately knocked away the executioner with swords and sticks beside him, and rushed out towards the North Street at the intersection.
Seeing that Dai Zong was about to abandon him and run away alone, Song Jiang called out to his brother heartbreakingly.
When Dai Zong was kneeling on the stage with his face north and his back south, he had already seen the situation around the execution ground. This crossroad was the closest to the north gate, and with his magical skills, he could pass Song Jiang who was kneeling on the opposite side with just one kick. With the executioner behind him, with another kick, he can jump out of the soldiers' encirclement.I walked out of the north gate in an instant, how could anyone in Jiangzhou City catch up to me?
Dai Zong's wish came true, and he successfully bypassed Song Jiang and the executioner, only to feel the wind whistling in his ears, and the soldiers and civilians on the North Street all flew back from his eyes.
It's so fast today!Could it be that Dai Zong's spells have improved again?
Dai Zongzheng was complacent, but there was a sudden dizziness in front of him. Somehow, he turned his head and saw the scene on the execution ground.
I saw Song Jiang knelt on the execution ground, and behind him lay a thin headless corpse. Looking at the clothes, he looked just like himself.The executioner standing behind Song Jiang held the knife in both hands, stretched forward, and assumed the posture of beheading.But he didn't attack Song Jiang, but pointed the knife in his direction.
Dai Zong felt the severe pain in his neck before his consciousness became blurred. When his head hit the stone slab on the street hard, he thought unwillingly: Could it be that I was hacked to death?
A big foot in leather boots kicked over and kicked Dai Zong's head into the gutter by the side of the road.The owner of Bigfoot, an army officer, was there waving a knife and yelling, "Stop them! Stop them!"
"Shenxing Taibao" Dai Zong was so aggrieved that his head was chopped off by the executioner.Lu Xiaoyi had tampered with his Jiama talisman long ago, so he hadn't been able to activate the divine movement just now.When Dai Zong fled north, the executioner who passed behind Song Jiang caught his attention.Seeing that Dai Zong was about to run away, the executioner slashed at Dai Zong with the raised knife first, and cut off his head with one blow.
Dai Zong's headless body was lying on the edge of the court, but his head flew over the crowd, onto the street, and was kicked into the gutter by an officer of the army.
Before Dai Zong died, he didn't know that it was his run that diverted Song Jiang's executioner away and saved Song Jiang's life instead.
Among the crowd of onlookers at the crossroads, two big men took off the hats covering their faces, jumped out, raised their knives, and chopped down the two executioners, protecting Song Jiang completely.
Of these two big men, one had a leopard head and eyes around him, a swallow jaw and a tiger beard, and was eight feet tall and short. He was exactly the "leopard head" Lin Chong. With a piece of black and yellow hair, it is the "red-haired ghost" Liu Tang.
In order to save the lives of Song Jiang and Dai Zong, Chao Gai also took great pains, arranging these two fierce men from the cottage to ambush at the nearest place to the execution ground, just to kill the executioner first in order to violently hurt people.
But what everyone didn't expect was that because of Dai Zong's accidental reckless move, he offered to send the head to the executioner to chop it off. People with such agility as Lin Chong and Liu Tang could not save his life in time.
The soldiers and jailers around the execution ground didn't know how powerful Lin Chong and Liu Tang were, so they surrounded them relying on the large number of people.It's a pity that the opponents they face are too strong. The "Leopard Head" Lin Chong and the "Red-haired Ghost" Liu Tang are both characters who can clash back and forth among thousands of troops. Killing these cowardly soldiers who have not fought for a long time is just like child's play. easy.
I saw the glint of swords around Song Jiang, and a dozen corpses fell down in a short while.The rest of the soldiers were terrified, and all retreated outwards, dragging their knives and guns.
That Liu Tang was originally a quick-tempered man, and when he was eager to kill, he looked at the horse of the prefect Cai Jiu, the supervisor and beheader, to slash past him.When all the soldiers were eager to pick up their guns, they could be blocked there, but he rushed into the crowd and killed them all.
Seeing that the momentum was wrong, the officer who kicked Dai Zong's head hurriedly led his men to surround the prefect of Cai Jiu, and ran for his life.
At this time, the Liangshan heroes brought by Chao Gai had all drawn out their weapons and attacked the officers and soldiers around them.
I saw the group of beggars playing snakes in the east, with sharp knives drawn by their sides, watching the soldiers and killing them.The group of gunmen in the west shouted loudly, only caring about killing the future.The group of porters in the south rolled up their poles and threw them in a haphazard manner, overturning the soldiers and those watching.The group of guests from the north all jumped out of the car, pushed past the car, and stopped them.The generals are fighting everywhere, and the intersection is in chaos.
A merchant rushed up, carried Song Jiang beside Lin Chong, shouted, and withdrew to the north gate.Lin Chong followed closely with a knife in his hand as a guard.That Liu Tang couldn't catch up with Cai Jiu Zhifu, after hearing the shout, he also chased Lin Chong on the North Street.
The heroes from East Street, South Street, and West Street all flocked to North Street after killing the officers and soldiers, and the group headed straight for the North Gate.
This Jiangzhou city is located in the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River. It is a place of peace, and the gates of each city are not strictly guarded.The soldiers guarding the city did not expect that there would be robbers coming to rob the execution ground in this city, so they were not prepared.When they heard the noise at the crossroads, the Liangshan robbers headed by Chao Gai and Lin Chong had already killed in front of the north gate.
Chao Gai and Lin Chong killed the sergeants guarding the gate, led the crowd to rush out of Jiangzhou City.
This time Liangshan rescued Song Jiang in order to rob the court. Ten leaders including Chao Gai, Lin Chong, Liu Tang, Ruan Xiaoer, Ruan Xiaowu, Ruan Xiaoqi, Du Qian, Song Wan, Zhu Gui, and Bai Sheng came to Jiangzhou together. , leading more than a hundred young men, it can be regarded as the best of the best.
The people left Jiangzhou City and ran downstream along the Xunyang River for a mile or two before stopping to count the number of people and check their situation.
Since Jiangzhou's officers and soldiers were vulnerable, none of the leaders were injured, only a dozen or so young men were lost.Song Jiang was also well protected and was not harmed by the rebel army.
It's a pity that the hero "Shenxing Taibao" Dai Zong was beheaded by the executioner.Although everyone grabbed his body, they couldn't find where his head fell in the chaos, so they had to escape with a headless corpse.
Chapter 241 Song Jiang's plot to make trouble
On the Xunyang River, Li Jun, Mu Hong and others found out that Liangshanbo hero had robbed the execution ground, and after rescuing Song Jiang, they immediately sailed down the river to look for Song Jiang and others.
Lu Xiaoyi and Shi Yong also left Jiangzhou after Liangshan heroes killed Jiangzhou City, and went straight to Wuwei Army by boat.
When Chao Gai and the others stopped to rest, the little guy posing as a merchant just released Song Jiang, who had been on his back, and helped him to sit under the poplar tree by the river.
Then Song Jiang knew that Chao Gai and others had come to rob the execution ground to rescue him, but he closed his eyes tightly and didn't say a word along the way.Sitting down at this moment, he just opened his eyes pretentiously.Seeing Chao Gai and the others, Song Jiang wept and said, "Brother! Could it be that we met in a dream?"
Chao Gai persuaded: "Brother En refused to stay on the mountain, which caused today's suffering. Fortunately, the auspicious man has God's help, and the prefect of the dog is scheduled to execute today, so all the brothers can rush to Jiangzhou to save Brother En."
Song Jiang asked again: "Xiao Ke, thank you brother and all the brothers for saving me! I don't know where my brother Dai Zong is?"
Liu Tang said on the side: "Brother Gongming, brother Dai Zong was murdered by the dog official and died on the execution ground! The brothers only snatched his headless body out."
When Song Jiang saw that Dai Zong was about to abandon him and run away alone in the execution ground, he already harbored resentment in his heart. At this moment, when he heard that Dai Zong was killed, he covered his face and cried out in pain: "Brother Dai Zong, it was my brother who killed you! To be with you!"
After saying this, Song Jiang stood up and was about to hit the poplar tree by the river with his head.
Then Song Jiang was surrounded by people, how could he kill himself by hitting a tree?Zhu Gui and Liu Tang hugged Song Jiang from left and right, and Chao Gai and others came to persuade him one after another, only then did they calm him down.
At this moment, I heard a report from the little guy: "The soldiers in Jiangzhou City, beating drums, waving flags, gongs and gongs, have come out of the city to catch up."
Chao Gai asked, "How many people can you see?"
Xiao Luo reported: "From a distance, I can see the flags and flags covering the sun, and the swords are like hemp. The front is full of armored horse troops, and the back is full of spear-carrying generals. There must be thousands of people."
Lin Chong said: "We are outnumbered, we must not love to fight, we must find some ships, and get out of this dangerous place quickly!"
Ruan Xiaoqi said: "Looking across the river, there are several boats on the bank. The three of my brothers go to the water and take those boats to carry everyone. How about it?"
Chao Gai said: "This plan is the best, Xiaoqi, you go quickly."
The three brothers of the Ruan family took off their clothes and were about to go into the water, but they saw three paddle boats slipping down the river, whistling and whistling as if shaking the future.
When everyone looked at it, they saw that there were more than a dozen people on the boat, all of whom had weapons in their hands.A person on the boat shouted loudly: "Are you brother Song Jiang and Liang Shanbo on the shore?"
When Song Jiang watched, Li Jun and Li Li cited more than a dozen strong men on the leading boat.Mu Hong, Mu Chun, Xue Yong, and a dozen or so dealers were on the other boat.On the third boat, the two brothers Tong Wei and Tong Meng also brought a dozen or so salt and fire sellers, each holding a gun.
