"Tch, Young Master Zhou, you're just a little kid. I'm a bandit, you know what a bandit is? Who said we're brothers?" Meng Meng looked Lu Zheng up and down, and said with disdain.
"Meng Meng, my second uncle beat you into submission, right? Do you believe that whoever has the biggest fist is the boss?" Lu Zheng asked with a smile.
"Of course! When my dad was alive, he was the boss. Now that he's gone, I became the boss with my own fists. What? You want to fight me? You're just a little kid who hasn't even grown his hair yet, who do you think you're brothers with?" Meng Meng shoved Lu Zheng.
"Alright then! Let's go outside and have a fight! If you beat me, he'll be your second brother, and I'll call you uncle. If you can't beat me, you can be my brother, and he'll be my second uncle, okay?" Lu Zheng punched back.
Gu Shouxin raised an eyebrow. Could it be that Lu Zheng recognized Meng Meng and was so insistent on not being a junior?
But he can do whatever he wants, he won't lose out anyway!
Gu Shouxin continued to egg him on, saying, "Brother Meng, oh no, I can't call you brother for now! My nephew, don't let his young age and seemingly weak martial arts fool you, he's actually quite formidable. Let's fight! Otherwise, you'll be so embarrassed if your brothers in the village find out!"
Meng Meng deliberately slapped Lu Zheng on the back: "Alright! Today, let these young masters see what we mountain bandits are capable of. Let's go!"
Lu Zheng dodged. You've used your Mighty Vajra Palm to catch people off guard many times, do you think I don't know?
After dodging, Lu Zheng made his move.
Meng Meng reacted quickly as well.
Unfortunately, Lu Zheng was a reborn person, and Meng Meng was his most powerful general. Before he achieved fame and success, Meng Meng had been humiliated by Lu Zheng countless times on the training ground.
Lu Zheng was very familiar with his methods.
Therefore, the final result of this competition was that Lu Zheng gained a brother and Gu Shouxin gained a nephew.
"Second Uncle Gu, Brother Zhou!" Meng Meng wasn't someone who couldn't accept defeat; on the contrary, he admired the two of them.
"Hehe, Brother Meng!" Lu Zheng cupped his hands in greeting.
Gu Shouxin glanced at Lu Zheng. Should he go back and ask about the specific plot? He had a feeling that the male lead was going to be spoiled by them.
"By the way, Brother Meng, what did you come to see your second uncle for today? Or did he send you?" Lu Zheng asked.
"Well, I've already surrendered to the government! I went to Lord He! But we have 79 people in our mountain stronghold and nowhere to go! My second uncle said he would find us a place to settle down, so here I am!" Meng Meng said, scratching his head.
"It's good to surrender! Otherwise, you might be wiped out by the imperial court one day. Under the current emperor's rule, it's not easy for you mountain bandits to do business!" Lu Zheng patted Meng Meng on the shoulder.
"That's right! There aren't that many corrupt officials anymore, and the unscrupulous merchants are getting more and more cunning. There are even people betraying us in the village. It's not easy for us to rob the rich and help the thieves anymore!" Meng Meng sighed.
"Where is the one who betrayed us?" Gu Shouxin asked.
“They all ran off to other places! Now all that’s left is me and seventy-eight old, weak, sick, and disabled women!” Meng Meng shook his head and sighed.
"Are the rest solid?" Gu Shouxin asked again.
“Of course! The conditions are so good on our mortal enemy's side, and they are all willing to follow me instead of going with those traitors. How could they not be loyal?” Meng Meng assured him.
"Brother Meng, have you considered the possibility that it's not that they don't want to go, but that your second uncle's family doesn't want this old, weak, and sick woman?" Lu Zheng asked.
