Chapter 279 Looking forward to the stars and the moon
Chapter 279
Inside the dungeon.
Yunzhonglong was sitting on a chair with five flowers tied up, a brazier, a soldering iron, and a small whip and chili pepper water were all ready.
Cheng Dalei's face was revealed in the dim light. He lowered his head and gently blew away the foam from the hot tea.
"Let's talk about how you became what you are now. We are committed to humanity. If you are unwilling to understand humanitarianism, then you will experience inhumanity."
"Thief, if you have any torture tools, give them to me! If I frown, you raised me."
"Civilized language, civilized language." Cheng Dalei waved his hand: "I just want to talk to you about Mo Mingmi and ask you a few questions. If you answer them well, we will treat the prisoners preferentially."
"You are asking what Boss Mo is doing. Do you want to go against Boss Mo? Hahaha, you are a bit of an onion and a bit of garlic. If you go against Boss Mo, aren't you afraid of death?"
"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My surname is Cheng and Dalei. Let's get to know each other."
"What, who are you?" Yun Zhonglong was startled and his mouth opened wide.
"Cheng Dalei, what's wrong? Do you want to eat people?"
"Could it be the Toad King Cheng Dalei who assassinated Yang Longting in Chang'an City and shocked the grassland?"
"Uh...haha, am I so famous? Haha."
"No." Yun Zhonglong shook his head: "It is said that the Toad King is handsome and handsome, but why do you look ordinary?"
"Well...it's probably because everyone has a different understanding of being elegant."
"It's really you..." Yun Zhonglong's eyes turned red: "We have been looking forward to the stars and the moon, and we have been waiting for you for a long time. Finally, you are here."
"..." Cheng Dalei.
"Do you want to take action against Mo? Hey, I have long disliked Mo. What do you want to ask? I know everything about Mo Mingmi."
Yunzhonglong's performance was completely opposite to that just now. He told everything he knew like a dumpling. Cheng Dalei asked about the distribution of forces nearby, how many road tyrants like Yunzhonglong were there, how many subordinates each person had, and who among them were.
It's amazing. Mo Mingmi told Cheng Dalei everything he knew, and even told Cheng Dalei how many wives each person had.
"In charge of the Cheng family, there is someone we have to guard against. His name is Dou Zhutong. He is Mo Mingmi's cousin-in-law. He is domineering in this area because of his relationship with Mo Mingmi. You must take good care of him."
Dou Zhutong... Cheng Dalei kept this name in his heart and left the dungeon.
I know a lot of information from Yun Zhonglong, but I can't completely believe him. Cheng Dalei still wants to send someone to verify it to see how credible Dou Zhutong's words are.
What needs to be done now is to build the cottage, but there are only a hundred people in the cottage. Even with the skill bonus of construction proficiency, the progress of the project will not be faster.
In the process of gathering information, Cheng Dalei had already learned that Mo Mingmi had given an order to use the territory as a temptation to put a bounty on his head.
The eighteen captains, except Yunzhonglong, were all ready to make a move, and Toad Island suddenly had an atmosphere of an imminent storm.
…
Huangniu Village is a fishing village on the bank of the river. The villagers here make a living by fishing.
There is a tofu shop at the ferry of Huangniu Village. The proprietress of the tofu shop is a widow named Lu Chunhua. There is an endless stream of customers in the shop every day. However, although there are many customers, none of the idle bullies in the village dare to hit Lu Chunhua.
Idea. This is not to say that the landlady is ugly. In fact, although Lu Chunhua is over thirty years old, she is still very charming, and her plump body is more tender than fresh tofu.
The truth is, everyone knows that there is someone behind Lu Chunhua, and she can scare everyone away by stalking the man behind her back.
During the day, the tofu shop was closed, and there was faint movement in the main room in the backyard.
A white and tender body came out of the bed, wearing only a bellyband, and the mandarin ducks were playing in the bright red and green water.
She sat in front of the window, staring at the green branches of the pomegranate tree outside the window in a daze.
"You dead person... you haven't come here for a long time, and you always leave when you come. You never want to spend the night at my place."
"Busy, busy." Dou Zhutong said while getting dressed.
"Come here every three or five days and treat my place as a happy place. Do you know what the people in the village say about me?"
"Let them talk. Gossip can get in the way of eating and sleeping." Dou Zhutong put on his boots and sat up from the bed.
Lu Chunhua came over to button him up and said plaintively: "The gossip has not reached your ears. You don't know how terrible people's words can be."
"Okay, after I finish this matter, I will take you over and see who dares to talk to you then."
"Hey, how many times have you said this, but that one time counts? I know that the tigress in your house is scary, so I won't make it difficult for you."
Dou Zhutong looked at Lu Chunhua in front of him, An Lushan's claws climbed up her body, and said: "What a lovely girl, I know you love me in your heart, and I will definitely take you back after I finish my work." Go home."
"Okay, if you want to go, just go. Don't make me unable to get up or down." Lu Chunhua blushed: "Slow down on your way back. I made a robe for you. You can make it when you come over next time. alright."
Dou Zhutong pinched Lu Chunhua's waist, then opened the door and rode away on his tall horse.
Dou Zhutong's cottage is nearby. Yun Zhonglong has landed on the road, and he is a thief on the waterway. Of course, the thief now wears official uniform and is also a lieutenant with files in the imperial court.
There are five to six hundred brothers in the cottage, and all goods that cross the water have to be paid tolls. The food in the cottage is pretty good. But there is a jealous wife in the family, who always says: What would you do if you weren't my cousin...
This time Mo Mingmi's order had been passed on, and Dou Zhutong wanted to seize this opportunity to show his face and cheer up his husband.
He had been preparing for this matter for the past few days. On this day, Dou Zhutong gathered up the brothers in the village, a total of five hundred people, all of whom were good men with water skills. He gathered ten large boats and set off at dusk, heading upstream. Depart from Toad Island.
Among all people, Dou Zhutong was the first to launch an attack on Toad Island.
In the past few days, Cheng Dalei's spirit was as tense as a bow. On this day, what was supposed to come finally came.
Dou Zhutong originally wanted to launch a night attack to catch him off guard. But Cheng Dalei had already been on guard. When Dou Zhutong arrived, a bonfire suddenly lit up on the dark island.
Cheng Dalei stood at the top and shouted: "Are they Dou Zhu and General Dou? My brothers and I have just arrived. Is General Dou prepared to see me like this?"
Dou Zhutong stood at the bow of the boat, not wanting to be noticed by Cheng Dalei. He shouted towards the shore:
"Cheng, I know you are a big fish in the river, but this is the sea and there is no room for you to surf the waves."
"What nonsense are you talking about? This is the river." Cheng Dalei shouted: "Dou, look who this is!"
His subordinates pushed someone over. Under the firelight, Dou Zhutong could clearly see that it was Lu Chunhua from Huangniu Village.
