Inside the city of Jinmen, the Hall of Mercy.

In a side door in the back street of the Church of Mercy, Xu Liang, the eldest son of the shopkeeper, poked his head out from time to time to look at South Street.

The limelight has been too tight in the past two days, and the Mercy Hall has offended the three Jinmen families in one breath, if it weren't for Father Andrew who had cured the evil illness of the son of the head town of Jinmen, and let the lady of the head town also believe in foreign religion, it can be regarded as finding a big backer, and the Mercy Hall would have been overturned at this time.

But even if you have a backer, it seems that you can't last long.

Everyone has lost their children, and now there is a lost child in the mass grave to find traces, although not all of them, but there is a birthmark on one with eight images.

After the other two are also confirmed, it will be the head town of Jinmen, and it will not be able to suppress the torrent of public opinion!

At that time, the Hall of Mercy was afraid that something big would happen.

Xu Liang thought to himself that at that time, he was afraid that he would also suffer, so he simply listened to his father's advice and took the opportunity to get more benefits first.

It's twenty taels of silver, and there's a big reward afterwards, tsk, the people in the capital really have silver......

Just thinking about it, suddenly, Xu Liang's expression was shocked, and he saw a carriage parked at the mouth of the back street alley, although he didn't recognize this carriage, he could also see that it was very valuable.

Could it be that a noble person is here?

Could it be the carriage of the Jinmen Headquarters?

It's a pity that just when Xu Liang was thinking wildly, the carriage only stopped for a while, and then left again, which disappointed Xu Liang.

At this stall, if the town government sends someone to come, this church will turn the corner.

However, as soon as the eight-treasure hairpin carriage left, I saw another carriage following behind, but this carriage was much rougher.

Around the carriage, there were eight horses.

Here it comes!

……

"Father Andrew, these are our relatives in Beijing, and I heard that Father Andrew is a skilled doctor, so I came here to seek medical treatment. As long as Father Andrew can cure the sick, our relatives will offer the most devout faith in the Lord! ”

Xu Liang humbly said to the blonde and blue-eyed old priest in a white sacrifice robe.

Father Andrew nodded to Jia Qiang and Li Jing first, and then said to Xu Liang: "The merciful Lord will not abandon any child who believes in him. ”

Then, looking at Li Fu, who was carried in on a stretcher, he lifted the thin quilt, frowned after smelling the stench, and then opened his clothes......

It didn't take long for Andrew to shake his head and say, "It's too late......"

Jia Qiang frowned slightly when she heard this, while Li Jing's face was gloomy, and the corners of her eyes gradually moistened.

However, Jia Qiang was not surprised, Li Fu obviously failed to treat the trauma after the outside dart, and the wound was infected and inflamed, and it has not been cured for a long time.

It is very rare that Chinese medicine can continue his life.

Before the invention of penicillin, Western medicine was actually a younger brother when treating trauma.

Jia Qiang held Li Jing's hand, and before she could persuade her, Li Jing lowered her head and smiled, and said, "It was expected, but it wasn't much." Master, I'm afraid I won't be able to go down to Jiangnan with you, my father is afraid that he won't be able to last long, and I can't let him die in a foreign land. In the tone, it is difficult to hide the pain of sorrow.

Jia Qiang understood, and he said softly: "Or, I'll go with you?" Please send a doctor to the south, it makes no difference whether I go to Yangzhou or not. ”

Li Jing shook her head and said: "It's not good, didn't you say that the main culprit in the capital is making trouble now, you are a person in the whirlpool, if you don't avoid it, I am afraid that there will be a big disaster." Uncle, I didn't mean to relieve your heart, it's just that my father has been lying in bed for three years, and he was a big man at the beginning, but now he is skinny and skinny, like a handful of dry wood, rather than suffering like this, it is better to be clean. I was prepared in my heart, and it will be fine. ”

Jia Qiang was not a hypocritical person, nodded, and was about to say something, when he suddenly heard a loud noise outside:

"Bang!!"

His complexion changed suddenly, and Li Jing suddenly turned to look outside.

Father Andrew and Xu Liang also changed their faces in unison, Xu Liang's face turned pale, and he said in a trembling voice: "It's bad, disaster is coming, disaster is coming!" ”

Father Andrew was much calmer, but when he saw five or six people pouring out of the apse of the church, each with firearms in their hands, he immediately lowered his face and exclaimed, "Are you crazy? ”

Jia Qiang was even more shocked than these people, he knew that there were firearms in this world, because among the twelve regiments and battalions stationed in the capital, there were already three battalions of soldiers and horses that were Shenji battalions.

However, the strength of Dayan's ban on civilian firearms is more than a hundred times stronger than Jia Qiang's previous life.

In all dynasties, it was a felony to secretly possess bows and crossbows and armor, and to secretly possess firearms, it was a heinous crime.

Even the Xungui Mansion is no exception, not to mention the territory of a Western Taoist monk?

The group of people who broke out were all dressed in breeches and boots, and the leader was actually a blue-eyed girl with white gold curly hair and a freckled face.

She spoke in a strange Chinese dialect and said loudly: "Priest, now that our life and death are threatened, if we don't resist, we won't even have a chance to live." Father, please come with us up the tower! While speaking, he glanced at Jia Qiang and Li Jing twice.

Andrew shook his head and said, "Although we believed the wrong person in this matter, your original intention has been contrary to the Lord's teachings. Now that the bitter Lord has come to the door, we can only atone for our sins with piety. Moreover, once the firearms are used, we can't do without Jinmen. Firearms are strictly forbidden in Yan Kingdom, Vivian, put them away quickly. ”

Listening to the increasingly terrifying sound of banging on the door outside the gate, and countless people roaring and roaring, the characters in the Hall of Mercy became more and more pale.

Don't say those ghosts, that is, Jia Qiang, Li Jing and the four gangs of Tietou, Zhu and Jinsha Gang who came in from outside, all had extremely solemn faces.

Jia Qiang asked Xu Liangdao: "Is there an authenticity in the Hall of Mercy?" ”

Xu Liang didn't know, shook his head, and looked at Father Andrew.

The old priest looked at Jia Qiang, shook his head with a sigh, and said, "The Lord has only a bright way, and he is willing to be repented of by the world, but he will not walk underground." ”

Jia Qiang frowned, looked out worriedly, turned around, and saw that the Western girl had a strange face, her expression moved, and said: "If the door is broken, the people under the rage will definitely have no reason at all, no one can escape, if there is no other way out, we only have a dead end." Moreover, most of them will end up with the children in the mass graves, don't you hear the barking of vicious dogs? ”

As soon as these words came out, Vivien's already white face did not show the slightest blood, and even the freckles on that face turned white......

She said in a trembling voice: "In the kitchen corner of the castle on the west side, there is a stone that can be taken out and can be taken out...... However, it was someone else's yard, and there were a lot of flowers and fruit trees, which I used to ......."

Jia Qiang couldn't listen to the rambling and interrupted: "Take us immediately, it's too late." ”

Vivien nodded, but looked at Andrew again, and said, "Father Andrew, come with us!" ”

Father Andrew shook his head and said, "So many poor children died because of our mistakes...... Someone has to be held accountable for this, and God has given us the courage not to shirk our responsibilities and sins......"

Vivian was about to plead, Andrew waved his hand and said to Jia Qiang: "Xu Liang said that you are nobles in the capital, and you also believe in the glory of the Lord. So, for the Lord's sake, can you help me get them out of town? ”

Jia Qiang looked at Andrew and said sincerely: "Priest, I admire your responsibility and courage, at this time, you are still willing to treat my relatives, and this generosity also makes me respect." I would like to believe that the death of those babies has little to do with you. If you want, I'll take you out of town. But, can you tell me that others are also innocent? I believe you, if you say they are all innocent, I can take them out of town with me. But if not, then I'm sorry. ”

Hearing this, Father Andrew looked at Jia Qiang, nodded slowly, and said, "You are a sincere person, may the Lord bless you." So, please take Vivien away, she is innocent. ”

Jia Qiang nodded, and was about to speak, when he heard a "boom" from outside, and countless angry people rushed in.

"Smack!"

Father Andrew had just stepped up to explain, but he didn't want the sound of firearms to suddenly sound behind him.
