Chapter 418 How to Apply to Join
Ximen Qing was just stunned when he heard someone outside shouting, "Why don't you come out? Let me see which jerk dares to stop you."
Ximen Qing was standing at the door, and before he could turn around, he was pushed hard from behind.
He staggered forward. Luo Jiu and Zhong Jialing hurriedly pulled Jin Lian to the side. He had just grabbed the table and hadn't yet stood firmly when a hand grabbed his collar and lifted him over like a chicken.
Ximen Qing screamed in panic, and when he looked carefully, he saw a sturdy woman in front of him. She was holding a walnut in one hand and pressing him against the door frame with the other hand. She was as imposing as a tiger.
Feng Qi glanced at Luo Jiu and the others and said, "You go first. I'll talk to him."
Ximen Qing grabbed Feng Qi's arm in panic, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding."
Feng Qi crushed the walnut in his hand in front of him and warned him, "If you have any evil intentions again, I will crush your head."
Ximen Qing was so frightened that his eyes widened. "I know...I know."
"roll."
Feng Qi threw him away, and Ximen Qing immediately ran out. Fubao, who was sitting at the door, suddenly stretched out a foot, and Ximen Qing tripped and flew out of the doorway, falling flat on his face.
This caused the onlookers to burst into laughter, and Ximen Qing hurriedly stood up and ran away in embarrassment without even looking back.
The five people accompanied Jinlian back home, and Luo Jiu immediately took out two hundred taels of silver and handed it to Jinlian.
Jinlian was stunned, "What is this for?"
Luo Jiu said, "We have offended Ximen Qing today, so you'd better not stay here. After you divorce Wu Da, take this money and go to the foot of Liangshan to start a small business. There are many people in the underworld there, and I guess no one dares to bully you. You can marry anyone, or no one, it's up to you."
Cheng Yaoyao said, "The longer the night, the more dreams you have. How about we talk to Wu Da for you? We'll complete the formalities today and send you to Liangshan tomorrow."
Jinlian said, "Don't worry, everyone. Let me discuss this with Dalang. He and I are husband and wife, so there is no need to stay here for a day or two. After I divorce him, I will open a small shop at the foot of Liangshan Mountain as you said. Will you come to support me then?"
Luo Jiu smiled and said, "If you open it in Liangshan, we will probably be able to see it, so just go there."
Everyone gave her a few words of advice. Before leaving, Zhong Jialing took out a set of jade bowls and chopsticks from her bag and said, "I almost forgot to give you this. It's worth a thousand gold. If you encounter difficulties, you can pawn it and turn danger into safety."
Jinlian said hurriedly, "How can I accept this? I accepted your money just by chance, and I am already extremely ashamed. How can I accept such a valuable item?"
Zhong Jialing said, "I said I would give it to you. How could I go back on my word? Just take it."
Zhong Jialing was about to leave when Jinlian suddenly asked, "When will you come again?"
Luo Jiu thought about it and felt that the plot about Jinlian had been changed, so it should not be involved in the original novel and might not appear at all.
Luo Jiu said: "We probably won't be able to come here again. We are destined to meet in Liangshan."
Jinlian said, "Wait a moment, leave me one of your shoe sizes."
Jinlian took out a ruler and said as she measured: "You are all people who travel far away all the time, so you must need a pair of comfortable shoes. Although I don't have any other skills, I am good at making shoes. I will write down the size of the shoes and make them slowly. Next time we meet in Liangshan, I will give them to you to wear."
The five people bid farewell to Jinlian and finally left Yanggu County.
Returning to the courtyard, Luo Jiu said, "We finally helped her get through this disaster. We are tired from all the hard work these days. Let's have a good rest. Let's save enough energy to go to the Three Kingdoms to participate in the meeting of princes tomorrow."
Cheng Yaoyao flipped through the original book, feeling secretly worried.
I'm afraid there will be a melee tomorrow, and I don't know how Chen Gong is prepared.

On the second day, the five of them changed into improved light clothes, took their weapons, and went down the mountain together.
Everyone was marching towards the tower in the distance. Less than a quarter of an hour later, they suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves behind them. A cavalryman was leading the way and shouting, "My lord Yuan Shao is leading 30,000 troops to the alliance. All outsiders, get out of the way!"
The five people moved aside and saw dust flying and flags waving. Looking around, the newcomers were strong and powerful.
Luo Jiu said: "It seems that it is just as we expected. Cao Cao has issued a false edict, inviting all the princes to come here for a meeting, aiming at Dong Zhuo. This is Yuan Shao's army. He is the most powerful prince at this time."
Cheng Yaoyao said: "So, the city ahead is Chenliu County."
Feng Qi said, "The person in the carriage must be Yuan Shao. Why did he put up the curtain and not let us see what this historical figure looked like?"
Luo Jiu smiled and said, "This time, there are not only Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Sun Jian, Sun Ce, Sun Quan and others, but also the three brothers Liu, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and Kong Rong who gave up the pear in the textbook. There are so many characters. We will go into the city later and watch them up close in a hall with them."
Zhong Jialing was eager to try after hearing this, "Then let's go into the city quickly, otherwise we will miss the meeting of the princes."
Luo Jiu said hurriedly: "No hurry, Yuan Shao has just arrived, and the others are still on the way, so it's not our turn to go out. Let's find a place to rest for a while, see what's going on, and wait for Chen Gong to come over."
The five of them found a dirt slope and sat on it to watch the fun.
Troops passed by one after another, and from time to time someone shouted loudly: "Nanyang Governor Yuan Shu led 20,000 troops to the alliance!" "Xiliang Governor Ma Teng led 15,000 troops to the alliance!" "Xuzhou Governor Tao Qian led 20,000 troops to the alliance!" "Wucheng Marquis Changsha Governor Sun Jian led 20,000 troops to the alliance!"
Fubao was a little anxious when he heard this. "Second Mom, they all come with soldiers, but we have nothing. How can we apply to join?"
Luo Jiu said: "Who said there is nothing? Aren't there five people? With Chen Gong added in, there will be six.
Besides, they are just a mob. You and your aunt are fighting against ten thousand alone, which is equivalent to me bringing 20,000 soldiers and you have to show your strength to fight against 10,000 soldiers and horses."
Fu Bao cleared his throat, stabbed his spear into the ground, and responded loudly: "Yes, the mistress is right."
The four of them laughed loudly. Fu Bao glanced into the distance and said hurriedly, "Look! Another group of soldiers is coming."
The four of them looked over and saw a flag soldier holding a large flag with the word "Gongsun" on it. The one who led the way shouted, "Beiping Governor Gongsun Zan is leading 15,000 soldiers to the alliance!"
As the cavalry and infantry passed by, Feng Qi suddenly pointed at the three people on horseback in the team and said, "Isn't that..."
"Shh!" Luo Jiu whispered, "Keep your voice down."
Anyone who has read the original novel can recognize the unique looks of the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang.
Liu Bei had ears that hung down to his shoulders and his hands that were below his knees. The original book said that he could see his ears with his eyes, which shows how big his ears were. No wonder Lu Bu called him a "big-eared thief."
Guan Yu, with phoenix eyes, long eyebrows, a face like a red date, and lips like rouge. Imagine, his skin is the color of a red date, and his lips are as red as if he had rouge on them, like he was sunburned. No wonder the opera stage always paints Guan Erye a red face, you will know when you see it, it is indeed very red.
Zhang Fei has an unusual appearance, with a leopard head, round eyes, swallow jaws, tiger whiskers, and a voice like thunder. From the description in the original work, he looks like a person but not a person, more like an animal.
These three people are eye-catching enough in the crowd alone, and when they are together, they are like anti-counterfeiting marks. No one else can impersonate them.
Watching the team go by, Luo Jiu said, "Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan have a friendship, so this time the three brothers brought dozens of people to follow Gongsun Zan's team and attend the alliance together."
Cheng Yaoyao said, "I counted them. Including Gongsun Zan, all the princes from the eighteen towns have arrived. Do we have to wait a little longer?"
Luo Jiu lowered his eyes, deep in thought, when he suddenly heard someone shouting not far away: "Madam! Chen Gong is here!"
