A question, the men sitting in the hall lowered their heads one by one and racked their brains to think.

Oh, yes? The purpose of holding the news is to keep the homeland, but the news is covered, and the people are gone! Can this home still be considered a 'home'?

This is a question that people really can't figure out.

The dog standing silently in the corner of the hall stared at these people and his eyes were about to fall out, who would have thought that a group of old farmers in the countryside who looked like they couldn't kick a fart with three feet on the outside were actually hidden assassins! And it's a nest, listening to their words, it's been a long time since they did this murder, and there are no fewer than a few officials who have died in their hands, and there is a monstrous wave in their hearts.

Secretly turned his head to look at the open door of the east wing, at the bottom of the row of spirit cards, a brand new spirit card on the three words "Tang Xiaosan" was impressively listed.

With the smoke of the incense that rose up, a gust of cold wind suddenly rolled up under the spiritual bed, blowing a pair of arm-thick candle wicks next to it swayed, and the originally bright room was also darkened, and the paper money ash burned in the brazier was scraped everywhere by it, and the cold air seemed to have found the dog, directly rolling the paper ash, blowing towards himself, so excited that the hair on the whole body stood up, and when he looked at it, the paper ash clearly hid a personal shadow.

The frightened dog barked "oops", and quickly covered his face with his sleeve, and the cold wind disappeared without a trace in an instant, and when he peeked again, the wick was stable, and there was no paper ash on the floor of the house.

Looking at Tang Xiaosan's spirit card again, there was no change, but the incense candle on the spirit platform burned a lot of eyes, and the dog was about to look at it again, when he heard a question in his ear.

"Xiao Langjun, what are you shouting?"

Quickly turned his head, and saw that it was Donald who helped him up, and behind him were curious eyes.

In an instant, the dog came up with a good way to escape.

The rope on his body had already been untied, and the dog clasped his fists with both hands and said to the old man: "Go back to the old man, the kid just saw Tang Xiaosan!" ”

Before the old man in front of him could speak, a sentence came from behind him, "Little cub, you are talking nonsense, tell you, don't fool people with your nonsense, you have to bury my son today no matter what!" ”

When he said this, he almost choked the dog to death.

"Third child, shut up for me!" Donald in front of him pointed at him and reprimanded.

I don't know what deterrent this old man has, the man called the third man, opened his mouth and sat down angrily.

The old man said to the dog again: "Don't be afraid, Xiao Langjun, we won't kill you today, if you have anything to say, just keep talking!" ”

Dogs: ......

This old man is really cunning, if he doesn't kill today, it's not too late to kill tomorrow, in the end, he will have to die sooner or later, for the sake of his life, the dog hurriedly said: "Uncle, the kid really didn't lie to you, just now I did see Tang Xiaosan from the spirit card!" ”

After speaking, he pointed to the incense candle that burned most of it.

The old man turned his head to look, frowned and said, "Nothing has changed!" Xiao Langjun is not dazzled! ”

Dogs: ......

Well, only they found out about the scene just now, and they wouldn't believe it if their mouths were worn out, even if they did, putting aside Tang Laosan's temper, they would only shout to kill themselves as soon as possible, so as to pay for his son's life.

With a cough, the dog arched his hand again: "Dare to ask the old man, what is this village called?" ”

The old man stroked his beard and said, "I won't hide it from you, our village is called Tangjia Village!" ”

Tangjia Village? Is it the famous widow's village? I used to be here when I was collecting firewood, but I didn't realize that it was an assassin's den.

"Ahem, Uncle Tang, the kid has been here before!"

Donald Avenue: "Hmm! Then he looked at the dog.

Dogs: ......

Why is it so difficult to set up a relationship?

"Uncle Tang, the kid wants to say, well, that!"

"Widow's Village?"

"Right, huh? No, no, no, no! ”

Poof, the dog was kicked to the ground by Tang Xiaoer from behind.

Rubbing his buttocks, he stood up again and arched his hand: "Uncle Tang, the kid has been listening to the side for a day, and he has always wanted to ask you something." ”

Donald Avenue: "Say it! ”

"The kid wants to say, since the root is around the Carboniferous Cave, why don't you go to negotiate with the government? Rather, it is chosen this way to go, to go ... ”

"Little bunny, what do you know!"

It's that annoying voice again, and it's a hands-on reckless man.

Rubbing his buttocks, he got up from the ground again, and the dog arched his hand and said, "Uncle Tang, if you can, the kid can help lead the ......"

Bang, he was kicked to the ground again, the dog is so angry, the master is a hostage, not a captive, as for being humiliated back and forth by you.

"Donald Laosan, you're not finished! I didn't kill your son! Moreover, your son's last wish before his death is still fulfilled by me! ”

The dog said angrily to him with his back crossed, and then, well, lay on the ground again.

"Little cub, dare to shout at me, believe it or not, grandpa will bury you in the pit now!"

Dogs: ......

Sure enough, being a hostage is no different from being a captive.

"Okay, third child, don't do it again! Let me and Xiao Langjun say a few words quietly! ”

Don't Boss help up the dog, and explained: "Xiao Langjun, you don't know, our ancestors were transferred from the previous dynasty to carry heavy soldiers, saying that the soldiers are actually a group of mining slaves, all day long by the whip into this hole to dig charcoal, not enough to eat and sleep well, sick and no one to treat, every year to die hundreds of people, this crowd can't help but plan a riot, it happened to be at night, our ancestors are digging coal in the hole, did not participate, and the next day after the casual workers went to the ground, saw those riots, escaped, All those who resisted had their heads cut off! ”

"The mining slave is gone, the ancestors thought that the mine was closed, who knew that the court soon after the requisition of a horse, because my ancestors did not participate in the riots, they were rewarded with the post of overseer, and therefore picked up a life, and then coincided with the great change of the dynasty, the mine was sealed, and a group of people had no way to go, so they formed a village on the south side of this Shitan Mountain, named 'Tangjia Village'. Later, many people from the government discovered the mine, and the village at that time went to negotiate with them, but they never thought that the next day they were cut off as the remnants of the previous dynasty, but fortunately, Tangjia Village was not exposed, so we could continue to survive. ”

"Since then, we have had to be forced to embark on such a road of no return!"

Maybe it's the secret hidden in his heart that has not been mentioned to outsiders for a long time, this old man, as soon as he opened the clip, he couldn't stop talking, and pulled the dog to babble a lot.

"When Beiting moved south, there was a Ministry of Industry official who knew how to pass by here, and saw the difference at a glance, we didn't notice it at that time, so we didn't kill him, the result was that our Tangjia Village experienced a catastrophe, the whole village was arrested and locked in ankle chains and rushed into the hole to dig charcoal for him, at that time there was a good baby in the village who was very promising, doing a lot of business in the field, and ran back to save us after getting the news, after that battle, my Tangjia Village became ' Widow's Village', and since then we have completely stopped negotiating with the government. ”

The dog hurriedly said, "Uncle Tang, why don't you move elsewhere?" ”

"Alas! How easy it is to move to the village, it used to be difficult to leave the homeland, and then I wanted to leave, but I didn't know where to go? ”

The dog sighed along with him.

After saying so much, Donald's attitude towards the dog also softened a little.

"Xiao Langjun? What is your best way to solve this situation? ”

The dog hurriedly said: "Uncle Tang, I have some small ideas, but they are not mature, you let me think about it first!" ”

This kind of generational death knot is so easy to knot, so after thinking about it all night, Tang Laosan locked the dog's legs with iron chains and locked him in the mourning hall.

As for eating, there are also, two hard millet noodles that can smash the walnuts, that's it, the dog eats wolf, no way, a day of water has not been stained, hungry chest against the back, seeing that in the second half of the night and have to suffer for a night, not to eat enough.

As long as there is a conscience, even if it becomes a ghost, you have to remember, so the dog is not afraid at all when sleeping in the mourning hall, and as soon as the people who patrol late at night leave, the dog will take the futon full of the mourning hall, line it up, and lie on it drooling happily.

I can't help it, I've been scared all day, and my spirit has long been sluggish, so I can only cope with tomorrow's sudden change by sleeping enough.

I think that dog should have reported to the official early!

Yes, the dog has reported to the official in the morning, and it has also alarmed the county lieutenant, after all, there is a senior official from the state in the yamen, and if there is a mess, he, the person in charge of guarding, will have to go around without eating.

The rooster crowed all over the place, except for those who could not come to the yamen, other people, including white servants, all the fangs, and the guards of the various cities who were dispatched, all came to the yamen.

County Lieutenant Liu coughed, and Liu Sanlang behind him walked out and said aloud to the two hundred or so people in front of him: "Recently, in this city, there have been frequent thefts, and even the donkeys that the people rely on for their survival have been stolen, which is really becoming more and more rampant. ”

"These two thieves are afraid that they have blades on their bodies, so you must be careful about your physical safety when searching, and you must sound the gong to warn if there is a problem!"

The crowd said: "Yes! ”

Liu Sanlang said with a solemn face: "I also lost a little lang, his name is Zhao Dagou, a small dog, a twelve-year-old boy!" He was thin, his face was yellowish, and he had a small black mole on his ears, which was informed by all the discoverers. ”

Everyone nodded yes, and Liu Sanlang said again: "There are four villages in total, so they are divided into four teams, each team is equipped with two fast horses, if there is any suspicion, Pegasus will report it!" In addition, each team also has a partner who is very familiar with the lost child, and if you find someone similar, you can let him check it in advance! ”

The crowd shouted yes!

Liu Sanlang retreated.

At the front of the team, Zhao Zhutou, who was riding a black horse, shouted and set off!

A group of people walked towards the west gate with torches, and many people shouted and screamed along the way, and heard that they were going to catch thieves, and when they searched for the little baby abducted by human traffickers, they cheered and praised one by one: "This move is good, it should have been rectified a long time ago, the chickens in my old hen's nest are always one less from time to time!" Being an official can be regarded as doing a serious thing for the people! ”

At the gate of the county office, County Lieutenant Liu watched the team go away, so he took Liu Sanlang to turn over and go back to the office, and did not go to the county lieutenant hall, but went directly to the open space in front of the supervision and arrest hall, which is usually used to train soldiers.

Here, forty or fifty sturdy men stood quietly, each armed with steel swords and spears, and some with crossbows and longbows.

Standing at the front of the line was the red-faced Master Yao, who saw County Lieutenant Liu coming over, so he arched his hand from afar and said, "I've seen County Lieutenant Liu later." ”

County Lieutenant Liu waved his hand, stood directly on the point platform in front of him and said, "You already know about the assassins, right?" ”

The crowd said, "We already know!" ”

County Lieutenant Liu nodded and said: "All important places in the county government must arrange open posts and secret posts, but those with strange whereabouts or strange faces must be stopped and interrogated!" ”

The crowd said, "We will obey!" ”

The county lieutenant said: "Okay, you should also be careful around the yamen, and the residence of the Shangguan in the state must also be carefully guarded, no matter where the Shangguan goes, you must follow carefully, if you find an assassin, you will be killed directly!" ”

Everyone shouted in murderous unison: "Kill or kill!" Lawfully kill on sight! ”
