Chapter 333: Chill

There are still a few days before the day of paying taxes, and most of the people in Anliang Town are worried. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Although in the early years when the town was prosperous, every family had accumulated a lot of money, but after the looting of the Tishan Military Mansion over the years, there was no more property.

There is still a period of time before the autumn harvest, but the Tishan Military Mansion is going to collect taxes at this time, and the families in Anliang Town are complaining, and they don't know when this kind of day will end.

On this day, the master of the bookkeeper suddenly issued a notice, saying that this year's tax has been collected, and there is no need for everyone to pay it again, but the tax will be moved to the Tishan Military Mansion and needs to be carried by manpower, so the government will recruit some young men.

When every household heard the news, they were all very excited, and if they did not need to pay the heavy taxes, their lives would be much better, so every family with labor spontaneously went to the government office to report their names.

In the evening, the master bookkeeper gathered the applicants together and explained his true intentions.

"The Tishan Military Mansion has plagued the township and done evil for many years, and now we continue to pay taxes, which will only raise their ambition and greed even greater," Huang Yue looked at the hundreds of people in the courtyard and said: "Today I want everyone to understand that if we continue according to the current situation, our fathers, our wives and children, and each of us ourselves, sooner or later will not be able to satisfy the ambitions of the Tishan Military Mansion, and at that time, they will show their true ferocious faces and raise their swords against us." ā€

Huang Yue's words touched everyone's hearts, and there was no one in Anliang Town who didn't hate the Tishan Military Mansion, but in the past, they could only hide this hatred deep in their hearts and didn't dare to reveal it.

Because they knew very well that in this place, in this place firmly controlled by the Tishan Military Mansion, there was no resistance, and even if there were, the only end would only be self-destruction.

I don't dare to say anything, after a long time, the people in the whole town have been consumed of their blood, and what they have in their bones is only the servility of being enslaved, they don't know how to resist, they can only live numbly and cruelly.

Huang Yue looked at everyone and said, "I invite you here today to tell you one thing, I have already thought of a countermeasure, and I will eliminate the bandits in the Tishan Soldier's Mansion in a few days." ā€

Everyone was shocked, all of them were silent and did not dare to speak, this kind of talk is completely taboo in Beihua Mountain, once it is heard by the people of the Tishan Military Mansion, how can they have any way to live.

"But I'd like to ask you to do me a favor and prepare for this." Huang Yue looked at everyone and continued: "Of course, if any of you don't want to, it doesn't matter, just say it, I won't embarrass you." ā€

Everyone present looked at each other, not knowing what to decide.

"I'm willing to follow your lordship!" A man suddenly stood up and said: "Your Excellency's move is for all our peaceful people, the Nati Mountain Soldiers Mansion has been doing evil for many years, and if we don't get rid of them, I'm afraid that our nightmarish life will never end, so I'm willing to follow your lord!" ā€

With the first person's response, the others immediately opened their mouths to take their stands.

"I'm willing to follow your lord!"

"Count me in!"

Seeing that everyone stood up, Huang Yue glanced at the man who was the first to speak, and gave him a special look.

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and they both showed a look that only the other could comprehend.

A lot of times it's not that people don't want to do it, it's just that there is a lack of someone to take the lead, and as soon as someone takes the first step, there will be countless people who immediately choose to make the same choice.

It's just a herd mentality.

Huang Yue gradually restrained the smile on his face, looked at everyone and said, "But I still have one more thing to say to you, something that makes me very heartbroken. ā€

Everyone immediately fell silent and once again focused their eyes on Huang Yue's body.

"As far as I know, among us, there are spies sent by the Tishan Military Mansion."

Huang Yue said softly, but this sentence immediately sent chills to everyone present.

The people in the hall immediately looked at each other, and they all knew very well that this spy must be found tonight, otherwise, once the things they planned tonight were exposed, the Tishan Military Mansion would definitely not let them go.

"Since I have said such a thing, it means that I must know the inside story," Huang Yue looked at everyone and said, "So I hope you can stand up yourself, so I can give you a way to live." ā€

"Bang-"

A man suddenly fell to his knees.

Everyone's eyes immediately turned to him, could it be that this man is a spy?

"My lord, I have never done anything to be sorry for An Liang," the man said, "Please enlighten your lordship!" The adults said that there are spies among us, so why don't we check them one by one and find out the traitor! ā€

Hearing the man's words, the others immediately knelt down, bowed their hands, and said, "Please find out the traitor!" ā€

Huang Yue looked at the people kneeling down in the hall, walked down with his hands behind his back, and slowly walked back and forth in the crowd.

The whole courtyard fell silent at once, and the night covered the hall, and the atmosphere became oppressive.

Huang Yue walked up and down, and finally stopped beside a man with his head bowed deeply.

"Fenghua, An Liang is not thin on you, why do you want to do such a thing?" Huang Yue bent down slightly and spoke.

The man lowered his head to the ground and sobbed, "I'm sorry......"

Everyone turned their heads and turned their gazes on the man in unison.

No one thought that the honest man who was usually honest would secretly be a spy planted among them by the Tishan Military Mansion.

Huang Yue reached out and patted the man's shoulder, stood up and walked forward.

The man knelt on the ground, not daring to raise his head to meet the eyes of others, he knew that from this moment on, he would not be able to stay in Beihua Mountain anymore.

"Lord Bookkeeper!"

The man suddenly raised his head, cried and shouted loudly: "I, Xu Fenghua, didn't mean to harm An Liang!" ā€

Huang Yue stopped, but did not turn around.

"I really didn't mean to!"

The man wept bitterly, and suddenly pulled a sharp blade out of his sleeve, and before everyone could stop it, the dagger was already plunged into his chest.

"Bang-"

The man fell in a pool of blood, and died without being forgiven by all.

Huang Yue put his hands behind his back, sighed secretly, raised his legs and walked forward.

Everyone in the hall felt a chill all over their bodies when they looked at the still steaming corpse.
