Since ancient times, people have regarded food as their top priority, and filling their stomachs is as important as filling their stomachs.
Lin Chong and his group of five people continued to rush towards the border of Shanxi.
The farther west they went, the more desolate the scene they saw.
It was originally the season when all things revived and spring flowers bloomed, but due to the severe drought, there was little life here.
Even the weeds drooped their heads and the leaves all began to turn yellow.
The entire field is deserted, without cultivation, and cannot be cultivated.
If the situation continues, drinking water may not be available for people in two months.
"I didn't expect the drought here to be so serious.
Looking at the scene before us, the people will be even more miserable this year."
Lin Chong said to several people.
"Yes, although there was a severe drought last year, the crops were still somewhat harvested, but this year we can't even plant any crops.
If the government doesn't open the warehouses to release grain, I really don't know how the people can survive," Bian Xiang replied.
After hearing this, Mu Hong smiled and said, "I think there is no hope for the government to provide food.
Those officials only want to exploit and enjoy themselves.
They don't care about the life and death of the people.
The worse the year, the more opportunities they have to make a fortune."
When Mu Hong was in Jieyang Town, he often dealt with the government and knew their practices well, so he was so scornful.
Several people walked around Qinzhou, Weisheng, Fenzhou, and Jinning, but found nothing except seeing the hardship of the people.
The five of them were walking on the road that day.
Lin Chong thought to himself, "It's just that the introduction in this book is not very detailed.
I only know the names of Tian Hu's generals, but I don't know where they are from.
How can I get there?"
try to find.
Even Tian Hu, when he passed by Wei Sheng, asked people to inquire, but no one heard about it.
He really didn't know whether to believe the original work. " The few people walked for a while, and it was almost noon.
Lin Chong asked Bian Xiang, "Brother, do you know where this place is?"
Bian Xiang looked around and said, "When I came out of the inn in the morning, I asked the waiter that we are heading west along this road to Gaizhou, and the high mountain in front is Baodu Mountain."
"Baodu Mountain" Lin Chong felt very familiar when he heard the name of Baodu Mountain.
It should be a place mentioned in the book.
Thinking of Baodu Mountain, Lin Chong always felt as if he had forgotten something.
"Look at the dangerous terrain of that mountain.
I wonder if there are strong men coming out?"
Lin Chong asked again.
Bian Xiang shook his head, "I'm not sure about this.
Regardless of whether he's there or not, with the abilities of the five of us, even three or two hundred of them can't stop us."
After hearing Bian Xiang's words, Lin Chong and others all laughed.
Wang Yin said, "I think it's better not to encounter them.
I haven't eaten well recently and I don't have the strength to kill people."
"Hahahaha" everyone burst into laughter again Lin Chong said, "Yeah, I haven't even met a bigger county in the past few days, and I have already faded away.
When I get to Gaizhou, I must find a big restaurant to make up for it."
The few people were joking with each other as they walked, which added a bit of fun to the boring rush.
After walking for about half an hour, we finally arrived at the foot of Baodu Mountain.
After walking around the mountain for a while, we arrived at Gaizhou.
While walking, suddenly there was a rapid sound of gongs in the woods at the foot of the mountain.
After the sound of gongs, a group of minions came out and blocked the path of several people.

Lin Chong and others were all too familiar with this kind of thing.
The gong sounded and an ambush was launched.
Immediately after, someone would come out and shout, asking everyone to put down their weapons and take out gold and silver.
Sure enough, a big man walked out from the group with a fierce look on his face and a long knife in his hand.
He stood in front of the crowd and said loudly, "Listen, you guys, you guys are stealing money but not killing yourself.
Just leave it behind."
Weapons, take out all the money on you, otherwise grandpa knows you, and the knife in his hand will not recognize you."
After hearing this, Bian Xiang smiled and said to Lin Chong, "Brother, do you think this guy is rude?
You don't need a few brothers to take action.
Let me finish him."
After saying that, he picked up the waist knife that he had snatched from Yao Di's hand, walked out, and cursed loudly, "How dare a little scoundrel speak arrogantly, and return it to grandpa, grandpa, I will let you know today, who is it?"
It’s grandpa” After Bian Xiang cursed, he quickly went to kill the man.
After hearing what Bian Xiang said, the big man on the opposite side yelled angrily and came to kill him with a long knife.
When the two met, they started fighting in Gaixin.
The minions on the opposite side all shouted for the big man to "kill him" "The second leader killed him" "well played" However, Lin Chong and the others did not speak.
They just watched the fight between the two with smiles on their faces.
Judging from the several rounds the two fought, the big man was definitely no match for Bian Xiang.
Sure enough, after the two fought for more than ten rounds, the man couldn't resist anymore.
At this time, another group of people came from behind the group of minions, led by two leaders.
One of them shouted, "Second brother, don't panic!"
, let me help you” But it was the bandits' reinforcements that arrived.
The big man who was fighting with Bian Xiang was overjoyed when he heard the shouts.
He hurriedly waved his sword twice to force Bian Xiang back, and then hurriedly returned to the formation.
When he saw the new big man, he said, "Brother, be careful, this man is very skilled in martial arts."
When Bian Xiang saw the man escaping back to his own formation and seeing reinforcements coming from the other side, he also walked back to Lin Chong.
Lin Chong said, "Thank you for your hard work, brother."
"It's nothing.
If this guy hadn't run so fast, he would have been killed on the battlefield," Bian Xiang said regretfully.
Lin Chong took a look at the new man.
He was over eight feet tall, with a well-proportioned figure, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a short beard.
He looked at people without squinting and looked like a general.
Holding a mountain-breaking ax in his hand, anyone who can use this weapon will never dare to use it if his arms are not strong enough.
I saw the big man holding the big mountain-cutting ax, walking out of the battle, and asked loudly, "Looking at the skills you guys have, I guess you are not unknown people.
Please tell me your name, so as not to become an unknown ghost."
Lin Chong laughed loudly and said, "That man just said some big words, but was beaten by my brother and ran away.
I hope you can be stronger than him."
Then he said softly to Wang Yin, "Brother, go and try this person.
Be careful.
I think this person has a good face and should have some real abilities."
Wang Yin nodded, "Don't worry, brother, I'll take care of myself, little brother."
After saying that, he walked out with his sword in hand.
The man opposite saw Wang Yin holding a waist knife in his hand, smiled slightly, handed the mountain ax in his hand to the man next to him, took a steel gun and walked out.
The two stood facing each other, one holding a knife and the other holding a gun.
They both stared at each other closely, and neither of them spoke.
I don’t know how long it took, but the two of them seemed to have reached an agreement.

They suddenly shouted together and attacked each other quickly.
The speed was staggering.
The two of them shouted and fought together.
As expected, this man's martial arts skills were much better than the previous one.
His spear was very changeable, fast and slow, up and down.
And Wang Yin's waist knife also flew up and down, slashing left and right, extremely fast and fierce.
The two of them were going back and forth, I was attacking and you were blocking, and the fight was very fierce.
People on both sides were fascinated by it, and they all cheered.
In a blink of an eye, the two had fought for more than ten rounds.
The big man realized that he was no match for Wang Yin.
He immediately raised his steel spear, peeled away Wang Yin's knife, jumped out of the circle, and said loudly, "Wait a minute, who are you?"
"Who?"
Seeing that he had stopped, Wang Yin also stopped attacking and walked back to Lin Chong.
When Lin Chong saw the man asking again, he smiled and said, "I won't change my name when I'm going down, and I won't change my surname when I'm sitting down.
That's Lin Chong's."
"Lin Chong."
After hearing Lin Chong's name, the big man frowned and asked, "But that Liangshan Lin Chong?"
"Exactly, how are you doing?"
Lin Chong asked.
When the man heard Lin Chong's admission, his hand holding the gun involuntarily tightened.
Then he turned his eyes and said with an expression of surprise, "It turns out to be the famous leader Lin Chong.
The flood really washed away the Dragon King Temple.
The whole family It would be disrespectful to not recognize the family.”
After saying that, he threw the steel gun in his hand to the minions behind him.
After hearing what he said, Lin Chong was secretly proud, "Now my name can be regarded as a brand name.
People have heard of it wherever I go."
Lin Chong also put away his sword, cupped his fists and asked, "I don't know what to call the three heroes."
The man called back to the other two, and then said, "To be honest with you, my name is Tang Bin.
These two are my brothers.
The one who made the move first is named Wen Zhongrong, and the other is named Cui Ye.
The three of us gathered five to seven hundred people and occupied Baodu Mountain as kings.
The nearby officers and soldiers did not dare to look down on us.
I have always heard rumors that Liangshanbo is very prosperous, and Brother Lin is extremely loyal.
I have always admired him.
However, we are far away from each other due to the high mountains and roads.
I didn’t want to see my brother here today.
I am truly lucky.”
"Could it be that Tang Bin Bao Dushan was Tang Bin who helped Song Jiang defeat Shan Shiqi and finally died in Huaixi?"
Lin Chong thought in his mind.
"Oh, it turns out to be the head of the Tang village.
Nice to meet you."
Lin Chong was a little unsure of Tang Bin's identity, so he simply said a few polite words.
Tang Bin said happily, "I don't dare to call myself the leader of the village in front of Brother Lin.
If I don't give up, how do you and I compare to each other?"
Lin Chong felt happy and nodded in agreement.

The two sides immediately put aside their previous suspicions, introduced each other, and became polite to each other.
"Brother, since we are destined to meet each other, please come to our village and have a chat, so that the three of us can show our friendship as landlords," Tang Bin warmly invited.
Lin Chong had recently tasted the benefits of using his fame to recruit heroes.
Seeing that Tang Bin was good at martial arts, and that Wen Zhongrong and Cui Ye were also heroes, he immediately became interested in recruiting heroes and readily agreed.
Tang Bin was very happy to see Lin Chong agree, and immediately led Lin Chong and the other five people to the mountain stronghold.
While walking, he talked with Lin Chong and expressed his admiration for Liangshan.
Lin Chong and Tang Bin were walking in front, followed by Wang Yin, Mu Hong and others.
Wang Yin looked at the enthusiastic Tang Bin and frowned.
He always felt that something was wrong with this Tang Bin.
Wang Yin looked around and saw that he was surrounded by his own people, so he whispered to Mu Hong, Jiao Ting and Bian Xiang next to him, "I don't know why, but I always feel that something is wrong with this Tang Bin.
After a while, I reached the mountain.
Brothers, please be careful and don’t fall for his tricks.”
Bian Xiang nodded and said, "To be honest with you, I also feel that Tang Bin is a little too enthusiastic, but I don't know if Brother Lin has noticed it."
Wang Yin replied, "We have been a little too smooth recently.
I feel that Brother Lin may have been a little negligent, so we must be more careful and not let him make any mistakes."
After hearing Wang Yin's words, Mu Hong, Bian Xiang and Jiao Ting all nodded and looked at Lin Chong with firm eyes:
