In the blacksmith's house, Lin Chong sat on a stool and looked at Shi Xiu curled up in the corner: "just now you said to do justice for heaven. I want to ask what you do? If you catch us, you are doing justice for heaven. Have we Liangshanpo people done anything harmful?"

Shi Xiu said without hesitation, "you are a key criminal of the imperial court. No matter what you do, the prisoner should stay where you should be!"

Lin Chong smiled: "the imperial court? Do you still believe in the imperial court? The imperial court wanted us not because we killed people and goods, nor because we were heinous, but because we left them, betrayed them and became people in Liangshanpo. Due to the face of the imperial court, they would never allow anyone to betray them, so they wanted us."

Lin Chong stood up and stood beside Du Shixiu: "have you been in the government for so long? Have you ever heard of the heinous deeds committed by the people of Liangshanpo?"

Shi Xiu looked down and remembered.

Lin Chong grabbed Shi Xiu's dislocated arm. After the palm rotated quickly several times, Shi Xiu's arm made a sound of bone friction. Then the dislocated hand didn't fit back: "don't use force these days. Although the arm is taken back, the muscle has been strained. Let's rest for a few days."

Shi Xiu moved her arms and looked at Lin Chong: "who are you?"

"Lin Chong."

Shi Xiu opened his mouth in surprise: "are you Lin Chong?"

"You know me?"

"Who doesn't know, you used to be the leader of the 700000 forbidden army." Shi Xiu's eyes burst with the light of seeing the idol.

"That was once. Now I'm just a member of Liangshanpo. You haven't answered my question just now. Have you ever heard of the people of Liangshanpo acting recklessly?" Lin Chong continued to ask.

"No..." Shi Xiu said solemnly, "I understand that acting for heaven is your principle, but the imperial court has issued a wanted notice for you after all. As an official, I should stand on the opposite side of you according to the requirements of the imperial court."

"Do you still have confidence in the current imperial court? The chaos between the government and the public has led to people's livelihood and people's complaints. If they still have the ability to master the government and the public, at least people-oriented, Zhang Qiong is the best example. I believe you have been around him for so long, you will naturally know who he is. There are many people like him in the imperial court. Do you really think they still have the power Is there room for salvation? "

Shi Xiu bowed his head and was silent. He knew that the corruption of the imperial court had become uncontrollable. Many officials embezzled and accepted bribes, regardless of the hardships of the people. They only wanted themselves and did not care about the plight of the people. Shi Xiu was also annoyed that his ambition had not been fulfilled, and asked him to obey such a imperial court and people like Zhang Qiong, It's against my original dream.

Chaijin came to Shi Xiu and put his hand on Shi Xiu's shoulder. He didn't have Lin Chong's great truth: "it's better to join us."

"Join you?"

"Maybe you think it's disgraceful to be a bandit, but you should think clearly. Who represents justice? With such a court, you will be infamous sooner or later. Liangshan is full of like-minded brothers. We don't do the things that the court does. Everything is based on the people. Although we can't make decisions for the people, at least we can act on behalf of heaven."

Shi Xiu seemed a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that he would encounter such a thing when he came home from work. He shook his head and made no noise before he was ready.

Looking at the hesitant Shi Xiu, Lin Chong smiled and asked, "don't you want to show your ambition? Do you still want to follow Zhang Qiong? Or do you want to quit your soldier status and live an ordinary life with your father after this event? If you really think so, we won't force it."

Before Shi Xiu could answer, the blacksmith rushed to Shi Xiu with a cigarette pole. He knew that if Shi Xiu refused to join Liangshanpo, he would also be punished with Zhang Qiong after the court blamed him. Although Lin Chong promised Shi Xiu not to join Liangshanpo and still saved Shi Xiu's life, it was only a promise after all.

"What are you hesitating about?"

Looking at his father and trying to beat himself, Shi Xiu stood still and said, "Dad, what would you do if I went to Liangshanpo?"

Hearing Shi Xiu's words, the blacksmith's cigarette pole hovered in the air. He knew that Shi Xiu was unwilling to agree because of himself. Shi Xiu was worried that after he left, the blacksmith would live alone in Lingnan city. If anything happened, no one at home could take care of it. Shi Xiu was a filial son. Naturally, he didn't want such a thing to happen. At that time, he regretted it too late.

Shi Xiu originally planned to leave the government and his father to live a good life and live an ordinary life after this incident subsided. He just didn't expect to receive the invitation from Liang shanpo at this critical time. His heart was full of tangles. On the one hand, he wanted to join Lin Chong and do things for the people with a group of like-minded brothers, On the other hand, he was worried about the blacksmith, so he didn't make a decision.

"I'm used to it alone. You don't have to worry about me." the blacksmith said happily after smoking a dry cigarette and spitting out a mouthful of smoke.

"Dad, I can't leave you alone in Lingnan city. I can't do that!" Shi Xiu knelt in front of the blacksmith and looked at Shi Xiu's firm face. The blacksmith shook his head reluctantly: "Do you want me to die in front of you before you leave? You have grown up and should make a choice as an adult. Worrying about me shows that you are indecisive. You don't want to be a man."

Shi Xiu said without hesitation: "no matter how old the child is, he is always your son. If you let me have no concern after suicide, I will go with you."

"You!" the blacksmith helplessly pointed to Shi Xiu

Looking at the blacksmith father and son, Lin Chong smiled helplessly: "forget it, it's rare for Shi Xiu to be so filial. You should accept his filial piety."

Li Kui seems not to give up: "brother Lin Chong, why don't we go to Liangshanpo with the blacksmith so that brother Shi Xiu can take care of his father."

Chai Jin shook his head and explained: "Liangshanpo and the imperial court have always been on the opposite side. The blacksmith is already old. If someone from the government attacks Liangshanpo, he can't protect himself. Taking him to Liangshanpo will hurt him. He is now an ordinary people. Once he goes to Liangshanpo, he is the wanted object of the imperial court. Why bother to pull an ordinary and impermanent old man into this muddy water?"

Lin Chong nodded and agreed with Chai Jin. He patted Shi Xiu on the shoulder and said helplessly, "brother Shi Xiu, it seems that you and I have no chance. It's not easy to take care of your father and raise you for so many years in the future. We can understand."

Shi Xiu nodded hard and looked at Lin Chong and others sincerely: "don't worry, you don't have to worry about me refusing to join Liangshanpo to report. I'll treat today as nothing happened, and I haven't seen you."

Lin Chong hugged his fist and thanked him: "thank you very much."
