Chapter 35: Upheaval
When Sun Erniang saw Wu Song coming towards her, how could she dare to resist him with her bare hands?

She had already left Xu Ji behind and rushed into the store, grabbing the servant and pulling him out, and said anxiously, "Xiao San, block it first, I'll go get the knife."

"it is good"

Just as Xiao San responded, Wu Song flashed before him. He hastily raised his fist and swung it out, but the enemy caught it with one hand, causing him to grimace in pain.

"hiss"

Wu Song grabbed the boy's fist, twisted it, and then kicked him in the waist and ribs, sending him flying and hitting the threshold in front of the door.

Almost at the same time, Sun Erniang jumped out with a scimitar in her hand and chopped at Wu Song.

"The thieves and their army have come to bully me at the Cross Hill. Watch out for the knives!"

With a swish, he slashed fiercely against the wind.

Wu Song moved his feet slightly, easily dodging the cold light, and then grabbed Sun Erniang's wrist with a backhand move.

With another twist, Sun Erniang felt pain and had to drop the knife.

Before she could react, Wu Song grabbed her back with his right hand and pushed down, then he made a horse-mounting movement with his lower body and crossed over to press the female demon to the ground and restrain her by riding on her back.

"Hero, spare your life!"

"Hehe, it's too late to beg for mercy now."

"Who are you, the villain, to have the guts to bully my wife?"

Zhang Qing, who was working in the vegetable garden, came back from carrying a carrying pole. When he saw his wife pinned to the ground, he immediately picked up the carrying pole and rushed over.

"Where to go!"

Yang had acquired skills in using a stick and was unwilling to just watch the show. He bent down, picked up the water and fire stick, and swung it at Zhang Qing's carrying pole.

With a bang, the sticks collided with each other, making a dull sound.

Zhang Qing was shaken so much that the carrying pole fell out of his hands, his arms went numb, and he was almost thrown to the ground.

He staggered back with astonishment in his eyes, wondering what kind of Tai Sui had come to his house?
That's it?

Yang Chang thought that the skills he picked up were not very good, but he did not expect that Zhang Qing could not block a single move. He did not know that with the blessing of powerful strength, the crude stick skills could also be incredibly powerful.

Seeing that he had repelled the oncoming man with one move, Yang Chang felt emboldened and quickly stepped forward to chase him.

Zhang Qing didn't dare to fight with Yang Chang, and dodged to the side while asking loudly: "Please calm down, my dear, may I ask your names? I have something to say."

Yang Chang had little experience in the martial arts world, and did not answer Zhang Qing's questions. He just kept pressing forward with the water and fire stick in his hand. Instead, it was Wu Song who held Sun Erniang down and took over the conversation.

"I will never change my name, my surname, I am Wu Song, and that is my brother Yang Chang."

"Could he be the hero who killed the tiger on Jingyang Ridge?"

"Exactly."

"Oh, I've heard of your name for a long time, and now I'm lucky enough to meet you."

After Zhang Qing finished speaking, he threw away the carrying pole, knelt on the ground and bowed his head, which made Yang Chang look surprised.

Hesitating whether to go forward and strike with the stick, he heard Wu Song's words behind him.

"Saburo, take your time."

"Oh"

Yang Chang put away his stick and stood at his feet. He had already guessed that the man was Zhang Qing. He thought to himself that the heroes of Liangshan were just like this. How could he crush them with just a little try?

Zhang Qing clasped his fists and bowed again, saying, "I am a humble man who is not good at recognizing heroes. I don't know how I offended the captain. Can you please forgive me for my kindness?"

"It seems that you and your wife are not ordinary people. Can I know your names?"

Wu Song had been in the martial arts world for a long time and knew how to judge people. Seeing that Zhang Qing spoke appropriately, he was afraid of hurting another good man by mistake, so he immediately let go of Sun Erniang.

When Sun Erniang heard it was Wu Song, she stood up and apologized. Zhang Qing then stepped forward, introduced himself, and invited Wu Song into the store to talk.

Yang Chang followed behind and listened to Zhang Qing talk about the past of this black shop. He also said that he had principles in killing and robbing, and had a bottom line of not harming monks, prostitutes, or exiling them.

Good fellow, even setting up a persona when running a shady shop? Yang Chang despised it in his heart, but he didn't want to disturb Wu Song's interest, so he left the tavern, helped Xu Ji up from the ground, and sat down in his original position.

Zhang Qing and his wife behaved respectfully and told Wu Song everything without reservation, which made the tiger-slaying hero agree in his heart, so he told him everything about his past murders.

After listening to Wu Song's story, Zhang Qing looked at Yang Chang outside the door and asked, "Is that official a friend of the captain?"

"He is my brother in life and death!"

“So that’s how it is”

Zhang Qing twisted his beard and dragged his words, then made a suggestion: "Since we are the captain brothers, you can say something. The captain is so heroic and righteous, why did he go to the prison camp to suffer? Why not pretend to be another public servant, call brother Yang Chang, and go to the Baozhu Temple on Erlong Mountain to become a bandit, and join Lu Zhishen, what do you think?"

"Although my brother has good intentions, this is absolutely not allowed."

Wu Song waved his hands and said sternly, "I have only fought tough guys in my life. The man who was knocked out was also my close follower. How could I kill him for no reason? Besides, Sanlang is a clean man. With his skills, he will surely achieve great things in the future. Wouldn't it ruin his future if I take him in as a bandit?"

"This"

Zhang Qing was startled when he heard this, and then he changed the subject: "Yang Chang has great strength, but he doesn't seem to want to listen to the stories of the underworld? When I mentioned killing people for bait, he hid far away."

"My brother has little experience and has seen little fighting and killing, so he is like this."

Wu Song was talking when he suddenly thought of a plan, so he asked Zhang Qing, "By the way, brother, do you mind if I take Sanlang to visit the human meat workshop in your store? I need to let him know the dangers of the rivers and lakes."

"Don't talk about visiting, there is nothing wrong with the store or with you."

"You are too kind. I would like to trouble you to prepare some antidote to wake up my paralyzed brother."

"It's a small matter. Second Mother will arrange it."

Hearing Zhang Qing say this, Wu Song stood up, walked to the door, and waved to Yang Chang.

"Come here, Sanlang. I'll show you around."

"okay."

Yang Chang didn't know that Wu Song wanted to train his endurance, so he followed the two men to the workshop in a daze.

Seeing the broken limbs and legs hanging in the house, my stomach churned again.

"Ugh."

"Brother Yang, please don't blame me. The captain is doing this for your own good."

"Yes, Sanlang, it would be helpful to read more. In this world where people eat each other, being too kind will easily lead to losses."

While Wu Song was lecturing Yang Chang, he held his back to help him relax.

Seeing that he was vomiting violently, Zhang Qing also added: "Brother, you may think that Zhang Qing is cruel, but compared with the corrupt officials and tyrants who oppress the people, my store is actually nothing. They only need to move their mouths slightly, and thousands of people will die. Have you heard of exchanging children for food? That's not the worst."

"vomit"

"Okay, let me take you out first."

When Wu Song saw Yang Chang vomiting yellow water, he led him out of the workshop and sat outside.

Sun Erniang poured the antidote into Xu Ji's mouth, saying that he would wake up in half an hour. She also brought some water for Yang Chang to rinse his mouth, and curiously asked Wu Song, "Brother Yang, you have no experience in martial arts, so how did you see that my wine and meat were problematic?"

"Haha."

Wu Song laughed loudly and said, "Auntie, you don't know. Although Sanlang is young, he is thoughtful and resourceful. Ordinary tricks cannot be hidden from him."

"Is it?"

Sun Erniang tilted her head and looked at Yang Chang, with an expression that seemed to be saying, "Young man, are you really as powerful as Wu Song said?"

Yang Chang felt uncomfortable being stared at, and thought that if he didn't explain, it would be difficult to end the situation. He couldn't say that he had read "Water Margin", so he could only bring up Wu Song to prevaricate.

"My brother told me a lot of stories about the underworld. My wife was dressed up in a deserted village inn. I thought there must be something strange, so I didn't dare to eat your food and wine."

"Haha, I thought Brother Yang was a god, it turns out that uncle taught him well."

Gu Gu Gu Gu.
When Sun Erniang was laughing heartily, she suddenly heard Yang Chang complaining about his stomach, so she said enthusiastically: "Brother Yang, your stomach is empty after vomiting. I will go get you some hot food to fill your stomach."

Yang Chang was stunned when he heard this, thinking to himself, how could I dare to eat the food in this restaurant?
