Chapter 7: The quality of the Assassins in this class is not good
Wang Xiao looked at the frightened Miao Jiang people with a smile, "Do you know what the identity of Lord Lin is?" He was a salt inspector, and most of the country's salt administration was under his management. I didn't know you couldn't do anything about it in the dark, but now I know. Do you believe it or not, Lord Lin ordered all the salt sold to Miaojiang to be sealed? It doesn't take much, it's enough to seal for half a year. ”
Indeed, half a year is enough.
Even if there was still stock in Miaojiang before, there were many people there. Sichuan salt has not been transported for such a long time, and there is not much left of this kind of material to eat every day.
Once the salt road is blocked, even if some high-priced private salt can be transported in, it will be a drop in the bucket. Half a year later, the scene there is unimaginable.
He Meng moved the corners of his mouth, wanting to say that Master Lin didn't have this ability, Miao Jiang was too far away, and the salt administration there was not under his control. And even if he can really manage it, he doesn't dare to seal it, because it will provoke the people of Miaojiang. In that case, it is not something that one head can carry, and it has to be carried by the heads of the whole clan.
Fortunately, he is not stupid, and he didn't say it.
Wang Xiao is fooling, he thinks that this Miao Jiang people, who have been in a place of lack of information all the year round, do not understand the twists and turns in this. Destroy his mental defenses in this way.
In those days, there were no mobile phones or wireless networks, and the level of information and knowledge was very low. This is especially true in places in remote southern Xinjiang.
Wang Xiao's deception succeeded, and the Miao Jiang people quickly collapsed in the face of this threat that endangered the entire clan, and finally had to agree to rescue Lin Ruhai's Gu poison.
According to the prescription provided by the Miao Jiang people, grab the medicine, boil it and drink it. It didn't take long for Lin Ruhai to start vomiting non-stop, and there were many small insects that were visible to the naked eye wriggling in the things he spit out, and the scene was very scary.
As long as you drink it for a month, you are basically cured.
Wang Xiao relaxed, as for how to deal with Jiang Chun in the future, it was not something he had to care about. The mission he came over this time is almost complete, and he plans to spend the next time on brushing Sister Lin's favorability to see if he can get a world anchor at the end of the mission.
Lin Ruhai's condition gradually improved, and the happiest person was Lin Daiyu.
She didn't know the real reason for this, so she took it as God's mercy on her. On this day, she took Wang Xiao to Tianning Temple outside the city to make incense and make a vow, thanking Cangtian for giving her father a way to live.
Wang Xiao naturally would not refuse, and regarded it as a sightseeing.
The incense of Tianning Temple is prosperous, and there is an endless stream of people of all colors on the way to the mountain gate. The hustle and bustle of hawkers and pedestrians bargaining along the street is very lively along the way.
Wang Xiao, who was riding a horse, followed Lin Daiyu's carriage, looking left and right, admiring the real ancient life that is absolutely not in movies and TV series.
Last time in the world, he was busy learning kung fu all day, and he had been busy with Lin Ruhai's affairs before coming here this time. It wasn't until this moment that I really had the time and mood to hang out. This is much stronger than any ancient city film and television city.
"Childe, something is wrong."
He Mengce, who was in charge of guarding the carriage, immediately stepped forward: "There is a group of people who have been following us. ”
Wang Xiao's face was straight. When I looked at it, sure enough, there were some people dressed as hawkers, ignoring the pedestrians' inquiries and following them.
"Hold the carriage and go straight to the temple."
At this time, it is more dangerous to return the same way, and entering the Tianning Temple, which is close at hand, is the best choice.
As he spoke, the sound of a bowstring suddenly sounded not far away!
Wang Xiao jumped off the horse directly when he heard the sound. He hadn't learned the Dugu Nine Swords, and he couldn't break the arrow.
On Wang Xiao's horse, which was riddled with several sharp arrows, the horse rushed into the nearby crowd with a screaming scream, which immediately caused a great chaos.
Taking this opportunity, Wang Xiao stepped forward and jumped into the carriage, opened the car door and looked at the frightened Lin Daiyu.
Although Sister Lin is very young at this time, the image of Keer in the new version is unforgettable.
didn't have time to explain, Wang Xiao stretched out his hand and put Lin Daiyu on his shoulder and jumped out of the carriage.
"Take that maid inside." Wang Xiao hurriedly ran towards Tianning Temple, and before leaving, he didn't forget to beckon He Meng to bring the purple juan.
If it were other maids, it would be okay, but Zijuan was a model of affection and righteousness. When Sister Lin was alive, she took good care of her, and when Sister Lin died, she would be with the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha for a long time. It's a shame to die here.
Lin Daiyu hugged Wang Xiao's neck tightly and gritted her teeth to prevent tears from falling.
The carriage was only a hundred meters away from the gate of Tianning Temple, and the chaos caused by the startled horses interfered with the movements of the assassins, and no sharp arrows flew along the way.
However, the monk who guarded the gate of Tianning Temple saw the chaotic scene outside, and was eager to close the door. Sure enough, he is worthy of a smart person who goes up if there is a benefit and closes the mountain when there is danger.
Wang Xiao raised his sword in his hand and shouted angrily, "Yangzhou Yanzheng Lin's family is here!" ”
Tianning Temple is a big temple, and Wang Xiao is not even able to report the name of the Yangzhou prefect. But in this salt capital, the name of the salt government yamen is something that no one dares to ignore.
The monk who closed the door hesitated, and Wang Xiao rushed directly to the gate with this effort.
Not far from the gate, a vendor selling straw mats suddenly reached out and pulled out a knife from the straw mat, jumped next to Wang Xiao, and slashed at him with a knife.
Sister Lin happened to see this scene, and her face suddenly lost color.
The bright knife slashed directly, and it was probably the first time she had seen it in her life.
"I've been staring at you for a long time."
Wang Xiao used the Huashan sword technique, and the sharp blade of the sword lightly swept through the hawker's neck, leaving a trace of blood.
All the vendors around were screaming and scattering in fright by the sudden change, and only this guy squatted on the ground with a calm face and stared at him all the way. Of course, Wang Xiao paid attention to him early.
Rushing into the temple gate, Wang Xiao put Lin Daiyu down.
Sister Lin was already frightened and weak, and collapsed directly in his arms.
"The quality of the Assassins in this session is not good." Wang Xiao quipped to He Meng, who rushed over with the purple juan, "Stupid, I don't have a plan at all." ”
With the exception of the initial attack with arrows and an ambush at the entrance of the temple, the other Assassins followed them all the way. Unfortunately, the chaotic crowd stopped them, and by the time they reached the temple gate, the thick gate had already closed.
The walls of Tianning Monastery are tall, and there are many warrior monks. The assassins were not armies, so of course they did not dare to come in.
"Cousin, what's wrong with you?"
Wang Xiao saw that Daiyu's face in his arms was red as if it was dripping blood, and he thought she was injured and hurriedly asked.
Lin Daiyu lowered her head and whispered like a mosquito, "I want to go to the toilet." ”
I was frightened, and then I was scared and wanted to go to the toilet. Wang Xiao immediately laughed.
Lin Daiyu looked up at him in shame.
Wang Xiao instructed He Meng to negotiate with the monks of Tianning Temple, and he himself beckoned Zijuan, who was also pale, to accompany Sister Lin to the toilet.
The news of the assassination in broad daylight soon spread back to the Yanzheng Yamen. Lin Ruhai was furious, and immediately sent a large number of salt Ding to Tianning Temple to pick up Wang Xiao and them back.
On the way back to Yanzheng Yamen, Wang Xiao smiled and quipped, "Cousin, I said before that I would be a hero to save the United States when you were in danger, do you believe it now?" ”
Lin Daiyu, who had recovered from her emotions, covered her mouth and smiled: "The second brother is really a hero." ”
Back at the Yanzheng Yamen, Sister Lin went back to rest after seeing Lin Ruhai. When she left, Lin Ruhai, who was still smiling and groaning before, suddenly sank his face.
"Jiang Chun, hurt my wife and my son, and now even my only daughter will not let go. Damn it! ”
Wang Xiao picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, "There is only a thousand days to be a thief, and there is no reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days." Jiang Chun's plan to murder his uncle failed, and he was angry and wanted to attack Sister Lin. This kind of thing can be prevented for a while, but it can't be prevented for a lifetime. If Sister Lin makes a mistake one day, it will be really regrettable. ”
"You mean the first strike?"
Lin Ruhai frowned, "But even if he doesn't care about the emperor, but he Jiang Chun has thousands of private salt under his command, and it is not easy to get along." ”
"Jiang Chun has been the head of the salt merchant for so many years, and it is impossible for other salt merchants to be convinced. As the head of the line, he must also be the biggest smuggler of salt. With such a large stake in private salt, he must have many competitors. ”
Wang Xiao pulled a chair and sat down, "Uncle used to discriminate against these people, but now he can secretly win them over and promise benefits, so that they can join forces to attack Jiang Chun." The other salt merchants also have to take action, so that they can see hope. The actions of the official face cannot be stopped, and all kinds of impeachments must be followed, and he must be in a hurry. Only when there is chaos can there be a chance. ”
Lin Ruhai nodded slowly, his eyes were pleased, "Very good, the Jia family finally has a Qilin'er." ”
"Jiang Chun's matter, I will send a secret message to the emperor. He Meng, the smuggler on the other side, go and tell them that as long as Jiang Chun is defeated, the lines in Jiang Chun's hands will belong to them. As for the salt merchants, the Jin merchants and the Hui merchants have always wanted to intervene, and I will tell them personally! ”
Before, Lin Ruhai was afraid of the emperor, so he swallowed his anger and endured it. But now that even his only relative is in danger, of course he can't continue to endure it.
The clay people still have three points of rusticism, not to mention Lin Ruhai, who has been clearing off smuggled salt dealers all year round. He made up his mind to fight to the death, and Jiang Chun, who had been in an advantageous position before, would definitely be unlucky.
Jiang Chun seems to be strong, and his heels are very hard. But it's not really possible to cover the sky with one hand.
It may be no problem to deal with one aspect alone, but he can't bear it with all the forces in the open and in the dark.
As for Jiang Chun's biggest backer, Emperor Taishang, if Emperor Taishang is really strong, he will not be forced to abdicate.
Lin Ruhai and He Meng began to contact people to do things, and Wang Xiao said goodbye and left.
When I came to the garden, I saw the loyal maid Zijuan beside Lin Daiyu holding a handkerchief and waiting there.
"Second master."
Zijuan Fu saluted: "Our young lady invites the second master to the banquet." ”
On the way back from Tianning Temple before, Lin Daiyu said that she would set up a banquet to entertain Wang Xiao to repay him for saving his life.
"I can't run, so I don't need to be specifically blocked."
Wang Xiao stepped forward with a smile and followed Zijuan to Lin Daiyu's yard.
The most common thing in the Grand View Garden is to set up a banquet as a host, and countless things happen in one party after another.
"Second brother is here, please take a seat."
Sister Lin, who was full of smiles, warmly greeted Wang Xiao to take a seat, and poured wine for him herself. If this is seen by Baoda's face, it is estimated that his eyes will be able to stare down.
"Nothing to do, this is not the Sister Lin I know."
Wang Xiao stretched out his hand to block the wine glass handed over by Sister Lin, and looked at her with a smile, "If there is anything to say directly, I will never say anything if I can do it." You're so enthusiastic, I'm afraid. ”
Lin Daiyu is a beautiful lady with ten fingers that does not touch the spring water, and she has sharp teeth and a careful eye, and she never refuses to suffer any loss.
Such a warm reception and personally poured wine, that is a treatment that Bao Da has never faced.
Since she did this, there was only one possibility, and that was to put down her body and ask for something.
Lin Daiyu sat down on the stool next to her and looked at Wang Xiao with a pair of wonderful eyes.
"Second brother, I want to learn kung fu from you."
