Chapter 868: Searching for a Mountain
When the Great Elder heard this, he turned around and stared at him viciously, he was really a simple-minded fool, could he say such a thing here?
It's no wonder that after so many years, the people in his vein have almost cut him off, if it weren't for the fact that he wanted to find a backer for himself, he wouldn't have pulled this idiot to cooperate.
Sure enough, when he said those words, Su Qing glanced at them thoughtfully, it seemed that they were not very united, maybe he could use this to find out something.
When Su Qing's eyes fell on him, the second elder only felt that the blood in his whole body had coagulated, how could that man have such terrifying eyes, could it really be like what the great elder said, his identity was not simple?
It must be so, otherwise someone as shrewd as the Great Elder would suddenly make a request for help.
The third elder was too lazy to deal with the catticity between them, he was only thinking about how to please Su Qing now, and explain today's matter clearly, after all, some people can't let go.
"Third child, no matter what happens today, we must help Su Gongzi find someone. If you're scared, go back now, I guess your brother and sister should be waiting for you at home!" The Great Elder said coldly.
It was best for him to shut himself up from now on, and if he ruined his plans for today, he would never let him go.
The third elder saw a rare ruthlessness in his eyes, and he was a little afraid in his heart, the great elder had always been ruthless in his work, and if he fell out with him, he would definitely not be able to please him.
"Big brother, I'm not just talking. But there are some dangers here, and it's always right to pay attention to it, we are not as strong as others, and we can fight those fierce beasts. If you really do, you will have to die! The second elder said faintly.
The hatred for Zhou Munan in his heart was even higher, it was because of his sudden rebellion that their business was ruined, and now there is no more money to take for himself.
Since he was already missing, why should they let them look for him, it was better to die outside, he was now full of thoughts that they would just find a corpse later.
At that time, Su Qing not only had to give them a large sum of silver, but their secrets were also buried, and no one would oppose them in the future.
Even if the second elder doesn't say it, the great elder knows what he is thinking when he looks at him, a person like this who is moody and angry is unreliable after all, and one day he will bring himself big trouble, it seems that it is time to solve it.
"Alright, you just shut up for me. There are so many of us, and we still have weapons in our hands, so it's hard to be afraid of those beasts! The Great Elder said coldly.
The group was silent, but as they approached, they were still stunned by the sight before them, a large wild boar that had died under the big tree.
When a group of people saw the wild boar, they all showed a greedy look on their faces and swarmed over.
One of them suddenly said: "You all go away for me, I found this wild boar first, and none of you can rob me!" ”
The person standing next to him was not to be outdone, and shouted loudly: "What are you talking about, this wild boar is what we all saw together, and naturally the one who saw it had a share, why did you swallow it alone?" ”
"That is, why do you have it to yourself?"
……
Everyone, you say a word, you and I say a word, and the fight is inextricable, and the ugliness of people's hearts is vividly displayed at this moment.
Father Yang and Yang Zimo stood behind Su Qing without saying a word, they didn't have any thoughts about the wild boar in their hearts, Zhou Munan and Song Xinshu had given them a lot of prey before, and they were all pickled according to the method that Song Xinshu handed over to Mother Yang.
Moreover, when they came this time, they brought a lot of things to their family, at least for the next few months, and their family will not be short of meat to eat, but the people in the village do not agree with them.
The neighbors who usually seem gentle and kind to each other became ugly when they encountered this kind of pie-in-the-sky thing, and Su Qing saw the joke in vain.
Su Qing seemed to have guessed what Father Yang was thinking, and said lightly: "Uncle, we can't replace other people's ideas, and we can't ask others to be as noble as us. All we can do is have a clear conscience, and other things have nothing to do with us, and they will not affect our relationship. ”
Father Yang glanced back at him, but he didn't say anything after all, just silently followed behind Su Qing, far away from the group of people.
The situation in the village is indeed not very good, but on weekdays, everyone can still come to the mountains to hunt some rabbits or something, so as not to be like they haven't seen meat for months.
The third elder was indeed a little greedy for the wild boar, but he didn't pounce like those people, but slowly walked to Su Qing's side, he firmly believed that following Su Qing and them would definitely have their own benefits.
The Great Elder looked at the farce in front of him, and his face turned green with anger.
These people didn't take themselves as the Great Elder in their eyes at all, and they hadn't even spoken yet, but they were fighting hotly, allowing an outsider to see their jokes.
"Don't rob me, this wild boar is our family!" A man lay dead on the boar and couldn't get down.
The rest of the people kept pulling him, and there were words in their mouths, "Why, you hurry up for me, or don't blame us for being unkind to you!" ”
After a long moment, the Great Elder coughed lightly.
Those people didn't react, the Great Elder coughed several times, and those who reacted silently stepped aside, pretending not to know anything, their eyes kept rolling on the wild boar, and their buttocks could stare the wild boar out of a hole.
There are still some people who don't know whether they live or die are still arguing, their families are relatively poor, and they have no ability, it is rare to see a meat fish, and now they see such a big wild boar, how can they not afford to monopolize it.
Seeing that those people didn't take them to heart at all, the four elders had a sullen feeling in their hearts and had nowhere to vent, so they angrily walked up to those people and said, "You all shut up for me, this wild boar was not hunted by you, why let you swallow it alone, hurry up for me, let people see the joke in vain?" ”
Those people turned their heads and saw the faces of the four elders as black as the lid of the pot, and they were frightened, how could they get carried away for a while, and forget that there is such a evil god here.
"Big brother, what do you think should be done about this matter?" The Fourth Elder came to the Grand Elder's side and asked.
The Great Elder's eyes fell on Su Qing, seeing that he looked like he didn't care about himself, he couldn't say strange in his heart, this man had a noble status, naturally he had never suffered like them, maybe he didn't understand what this wild boar meant to them at all.
But it has happened, and I still have to deal with it impartially.
"I don't know who hunted this wild boar? Maybe the hunters are nearby, but they haven't had time to take them away, and we can't take advantage of them. I think it's okay to send a few people to stay here, and if anyone comes to claim it, we'll give it back. If not, everyone will carry the wild boar back to the village, and each family will have a point, so that everyone can try it! The Great Elder spoke.
As soon as these words came out, most people agreed, after all, wild boars were not hunted by them, and if they could share a little, they would be satisfied.
If you don't get anything, that's okay!
But some people are very unhappy in their hearts, they think that the Great Elder is just pretending, since this wild boar was found by them, and it is directly carried back to everyone to divide it, why do they have to wait here for others to claim it? That's just a lot of work!
"Great Elder, our children haven't eaten meat for almost a month. Now that we have finally come across this wild boar, you have pity on us, let us take it back and give it to the child to eat! A scrawny man said pitifully.
After he had said this, four or five more people came out to help him speak.
The Great Elder glanced at them, these people's families are indeed poor, but this thing is not hunted by them, and there is an outsider here, if he is so partial to the people in his own village and brings this wild boar back, then where will he put his face?
"Shut up, I know your family is in a special situation. But if this is someone else's property, and if we dispose of it without the master's consent, it will not be theft. ”
"If someone else files a complaint to the yamen, won't we have to go to prison again? I can't hurt the whole village because of a few of you! The Great Elder said coldly.
Those few people were already frightened when they heard the word "official", but they really seemed to be eating meat.
Su Qing stood aside with cold eyes, this person was afraid that he was acting for himself, but this play was not exciting enough, and he really couldn't look at it, but those people did look pitiful.
If they are all good people who are honest and responsible, it is not impossible to help them yourself.
He turned his head and asked in a low voice, "Uncle, what is the situation with them?" ”
Father Yang was stunned for a moment, and then said a few words in his ear, seeing him nodded, he was a little surprised in his heart, according to Su Qing's identity, if he was willing to come to the rescue, the lives of those families could also be improved.
However, he really didn't expect Su Qing to look like a cold face, and his heart was so soft, no wonder Song Xinshu's girl praised him.
In the time they were talking, there was already an argument over there, and the danger in the woods was not yet known, so they naturally wanted to stay here and guard the wild boars.
In this way, you can not only get the silver given by Su Qing, but also get a lot of wild boar, and this trip is not in vain.
The Great Elder was annoyed by them, and when he saw Su Qing's quiet appearance over there, he was naturally dissatisfied in his heart.
