Wang Er shook his head.

"The clerk didn't describe the appearances of the two government troops either,"

"My brother only recognized them because they were unfamiliar faces, and one of them didn't even have a Shandong accent,"

That's when I noticed them.

"One is a local, and the other is from out of town; they're most likely the ones,"

Song Jiang exclaimed with delight,

"Where do these two people live now?"

"At Old Hu's inn in the south of the city,"

Wang Er said,

“The clerk has been to that inn before.”

"Yes, I do recognize that old man Hu,"

As Song Jiang spoke,

He excitedly got up.

He wanted to leave with his men.

Wang Er quickly stopped them.

"Where is the clerk going?"

"Of course we'll go to Old Hu's inn,"

Song Jiang had no choice but to say,

"If we arrive too late, and those two leave, wouldn't that be troublesome?"

"Clerk, you absolutely must not go out now!"

Wang Er quickly tried to persuade him.

"The clerk is unaware of this,"

"Because the government army was defeated, Magistrate Liu was afraid that Liangshan would attack Yuncheng,"

"The city gates are now completely closed, and government officials are patrolling the streets."

“In the past, everyone in Yuncheng County knew and admired the clerk,”

"If we go out like this now, what if someone recognizes us?"

"How could Magistrate Liu possibly let the clerk off the hook!"

"But...but those two..."

Song Jiang was still somewhat unwilling to give up.

Two fierce generals were right in front of them.

If we can persuade the two to join Qingfeng Mountain,

So what status did he gain on the mountain?

It will completely overwhelm Chao Gai.

No matter what I do in the future,

But they all have to be better than now.

It would be much more convenient to have Chao Gai pressing it on top.

"No need to rush, clerk,"

Wang Er laughed.

"Given the current situation, it's not advisable for the clerk to go out,"

"Does that mean those two can just leave whenever they want?"

“They are from out of town, so how could they dare to go out on the streets at this time?”

"...That's true,"

Song Jiang also calmed down.

Wang Er smiled.

He took the basket over.

The food and wine inside were placed one by one on the table.

"Clerk, don't be impatient,"

Wang Er poured Song Jiang a cup of wine.

"And eat and drink your fill here with this humble man,"

"When night fell, it was dark and windy, so I took the clerk to Old Hu's inn."

"That's all we can do now."

Song Jiang nodded helplessly.

He gestured for Wang Er and the other henchmen to sit down.

Enjoy the food and drinks together.

After several rounds of drinks,

After a long night of hard work,

Song Jiang, who fled from Liangshan to Yuncheng,

He then became drowsy.

He kept yawning.

Wang Er quickly helped him to his own bed to rest.

Then they returned to the courtyard.

With the henchmen of Qingfeng Mountain,

Drinking and chatting...

Chapter 787 A Dark and Windy Night

Song Jiang fell asleep,

When he got up again,

Then I saw that the sky outside the window was darkening.

It was already past 7 PM.

Thinking of Huyan Zhuo and Zhang Qing, who are still in the inn,

Song Jiang quickly got up.

We must take advantage of the darkness,

Head to the old man Hu's inn.

This news,

It was Wang Er who found out.

Naturally, he led the way.

He led Song Jiang and his group out of his own courtyard.

"Sir Song, and all you heroes, please do not make a sound on the journey,"

Wang Er gave instructions.

"The constables from that yamen are still patrolling the streets,"

“Once they catch you, you'll just be an ordinary citizen.”

"They will also be taken to the government office and given twenty strokes of the cane,"

"Not to mention that you, Clerk, are wanted by the government."

"Don't worry, Brother Wang, I understand,"

Song Jiang nodded.

He then instructed his men to keep quiet.

Only then, under Wang Erde's leadership,

Along the dimly lit street,

They slowly made their way south towards Old Hu's inn.

Yuncheng County is not large.

There are only two main roads, one running north-south and one running east-west.

Other roads,

Most of them are no different from alleyways.

The government's bailiffs

Although following the orders of Magistrate Liu

Touring the entire county town,

They mostly travel on two main roads.

He paid little attention to the surrounding alleys.

Song Jiang and his men,

Under Wang Erde's leadership,

In the dark,

Winding through the alleys

After walking for half a day,

We finally arrived at the old Hu family's inn.

However, a curfew had already been imposed by then.

Old Hu's inn has also closed its doors to guests.

If you rashly go and knock on the door,

It will inevitably alert other people.

At this time,

It was Wang Er who came up with the idea.

"Clerk, the back wall of Old Hu's house isn't very high,"

"Why don't we climb over from there?"

"Alright!"

at this point,

Song Jiang could only nod.

The group arrived at the backyard.

Song Jiang left half of his henchmen behind and did not enter the inn.

They were waiting outside to provide support.

He himself was with Wang Er.

With the help of the henchmen
