The night is leisurely and the evening breeze is gentle, which is quite a bit of winter to spring. At this time, the small family has already fallen asleep, and the large family is the beginning of the nightlife.

Dim alternates with candle lights, but where there are candle lights to shine, they are generally large households.

A slender teenager figure, skillfully dodging the light of the candlelight. Always in the dark.

The boy asked and answered himself as he walked forward.

"Punch for whom?"

"Divination, things, old people and peach blossoms. ”

"Why are you punching?"

"Fair. ”

The random boy slowed down and said to himself: "It seems natural to repay debts, and the boy on horseback did the right thing?"

"Could it be that I was wrong, but why do I feel that the two grandchildren of Peach Blossom have suffered injustice? Is it because of compassion?"

The young man suddenly squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, his face was extremely painful and embarrassed. Keep thinking in the bottom of your heart why you're going.

A gust of night wind blew, and the young man shivered. Standing up refreshed, the boy pursed his lips and smiled and muttered to himself.

"Brother Gongzi knocked over the sugar gourd stall, and there were two faults for hitting and injuring the old man selling sugar gourds. almost hurt the servant and things, but did not apologize, there are three mistakes. ”

"What the Peach Blossom family owes is money, not people, and the son-in-law can ask for money and things, but he can't hurt people and hurt people, and there are four faults.

"Brother Gongzi kicked the old man and whipped the old man, threatening me and waiting for him to be wrong. ”

"Right or wrong to punch?"

"Rightfully so. “

While thinking about it, the boy was already approaching the vermilion gate. Look left and right and look around, look for a dark place with trees next to the wall.

The boy suddenly exerted his strength, and jumped up after sprinting. Kick on the trunk and bounce again. Two ups and downs jumped on the high courtyard wall.

The young man was as light as a swallow and fell silently, hiding from the patrolling family in the dark. Keep your ears up and listen, and your figure will peek carefully under each window.

The courtyard is like a labyrinth, and the boy is dizzy. The longer it drags on, the more detrimental it becomes to the operation.

When the boy thought of this, he not only sweated slightly. I can't help but pick up the pace and search. Suddenly, I heard a woman shouting. The boy's body shook and slowly smiled. Rush to the source of the sound.

As the saying goes, things should not be in a hurry, and it is easy to make mistakes when the mood is chaotic.

At this time, the teenager made such a mistake. I don't want to delay a little bit of time when I save people, but I am negligent in the monitoring around me.

Just as the boy approached the room where the sound was coming from, a dark figure suddenly appeared behind him. Quickly covered the boy's mouth and pulled back, stopping the boy's next move.

The giant earthquake in the young man's heart lake was like being struck by lightning. This kind of mistake is too serious, and if the person behind suddenly attacked, it would cost him his own life.

Seeing that the person behind him had no intention of hurting himself, he slowly turned his head and exhaled a long breath.

Although the man in black behind him was masked, the young man vaguely recognized familiar eyes. It is Kuishan, who claims to be a partial general in the cottage. The boy is Mu Ne's true punishment.

The latter made a silent gesture and pointed to the aisle next to him. Looking in the direction, Xing Zhen saw a group of more than ten people, carrying lanterns and slowly walking to this side.

The torture heart has palpitations, and he is glad that Kuishan followed here. Many questions are inconvenient to ask now, so I have to wait quietly for these family members to pass.

When it was quiet again, Kuishan slowly twitched the long knife behind him. Strode to the room where the candlelight flickered and the woman shouted.

Xing Zhen reminded in a low voice: "Although that son-in-law brother is wrong, his crime will not lead to death." ”

Kui Shan snorted: "It's not a pity to die for the great crime, now is not the time to explain, I will tell you the truth when I turn around." ”

Xing Zhen couldn't stop the big knife man Kuishan at all, and he saw a murder scene for the first time in his life.

Kuishan is not young, but when he made a move, he was extremely embarrassed. The knife fell in his hand, and his head flew up.

The shot was quite clean, and then slapped the peach blossoms that were huddled in the corner and shivering. Resist it on the shoulder.

Then the other hand stood up with Xingzhen in his hand, and stepped on the void on the roof of the house. In an instant, I was at a warehouse.

made Xing Zhen embarrassed again, and the old man, Jin Sanduo and other copycat members were all here again. Of course, except for Ji Dacheng, who took care of the old man who bought the gourd, and the two little guys to serve things.

Everyone was very busy, each with a sack in his hand, and a large amount of gold and silver was filled into it.

Xing Zhen asked in a low voice: "If you stay in the inn and the things, there will be no danger, right?" ”

Pang Lao was relieved: "Don't worry, it's safe." ”

handed Xing Zhen a sack: "Hurry up, load it quickly, I'll come a few more times tonight." Go back and empty the granary and cellar for him. ”

Xing Zhen is heartfelt: "Mountain bandits are mountain bandits after all." ”

The subsequent behavior made Xing Zhen regret what he had just thought. It turned out that a group of people waited for the sacks to be filled. Wander around Shanliang County and some thatched huts.

They left a certain amount of gold, silver and food in the courtyard, not much, but at least enough for the next year.

The punishment is really wooden, but you can also see what the mountain bandits are doing. Although I also have some income, and there is still a lot of it. But this generosity is probably the only one in Shuibo Mountain.

In the end, the peach blossoms were sent back to Xishan Village, and the old man who sold the gourd was given enough entanglement. made his grandfather and grandson flee Shanliang County overnight.

This is also a helpless move. After all, Shanliang County is controlled by the government, and most of the officials and landlords wear a pair of pants.

Peach Blossom has a cottage to help each other today, which does not mean that someone will help every time you encounter difficulties in the future. If you continue to stay in Shanliang County, you will be persecuted by the landlord's family sooner or later

The old man selling sugar gourds was so excited that his eyes were blurred, and he was about to kneel down and kowtow on the spot. Blocked by the cottage crowd.

Kui Shan helped the old man and said, "Please tell this little brother how many crimes there are today." ”

The old man sighed: "If you really want to talk about it in detail, I'm afraid Tianming may not be able to finish it." Let's just talk about the rent owed to them. ”

"I have paid it back and forth many times, and the sum up is enough to lease that land for twenty years. But the Fuji family wants to say something about profits, and they are endlessly urging for rent. ”

"To be honest, if it weren't for your help, Xiao Lao'er really wouldn't know how to repay the money. I have long planned to die a hundred, but I can't rest assured that I can't live in the world. ”

Kuishan interrupted: "The old man is not afraid, the matter is over." Your ancestors and grandchildren should leave quickly, there is no place for you in Shanliang City. ”

For the first time, Xing Zhen had a new understanding of the mountain bandits. It turns out that the rumors are not necessarily all true.

The people in the cottage are in a hurry, and there is also an undercurrent in the inn.

A group of black-clad night walkers sneaked into the inn with the help of the night. Each person had a bamboo pipe in their mouth, and smoke rose from the bamboo pipe.

The inn of Nuoda became unusually quiet after a while, and there was no snoring sound.

The man in black flashed his sword, glittering in the moonlight. The eyes are full of fierceness, and there is no humanity at all.

Just as the group of men in black raised their butcher knives and began to kill, a tall figure descended from the sky. It was also masked, with only a pair of sharp eyes exposed.

The tall man in black was like a ghost, slapping one and kicking one fly. In the blink of an eye, a group of nocturnal black-clothed people were lying outside the inn.

The tall man in black was not polite at all, and searched everyone one by one after letting them go. A bag full of broken silver was looted.

After all this, the tall man in black looked like a nobody. He flipped his money bag and said to himself: "There is hot pot to eat again." ”

The landlord Teng's house in Shanliang County was stolen, and Shanliang County closely checked the passing merchants. When passing through the city gates, it is not as easy as in the past. Even if there is a clearance document, it needs to be searched.

The government sent someone to open the large and small boxes on the car, and his face was full of questions: "Aren't you traveling for business? Why do you buy so many farm tools?"

Pang Lao explained: "The Great Lu Dynasty levied iron tools one after another, collected them all for military use, and forged them into swords, guns, swords, and halberds from the new. The price of farm tools over there has risen again and again, and the supply exceeds demand. Now is the time to resell farm tools. ”

The messenger was very satisfied with this answer, and then asked, "How can you bring so much food, can you people eat it on the way?"

Pang Lao continued to explain: "It is still collected by the Dalu Dynasty, and what is it said to be used as military rations. It's so small that I don't understand why. ”

The messenger cursed: "Special Niang's war and war, damn the ambition of the wolf son of the Dalu Dynasty, maybe one day it will hit the country of Shushui." ”

"You shouldn't be allowed to go, because you used to be tantamount to funding Dalu. ”

Pang Lao smiled and approached the official and said, "We are businessmen, just for money. It doesn't matter what kind of big Lu and what kind of books, where you have money, you can go there, and trouble the official to be accommodating. ”

As he spoke, he secretly took out a bag in his arms and quietly gave it to the interrogating official.

The latter weighed it and seemed to be very satisfied.

"Well, he's quite sensible, and he's a businessman. Let's go over. ”

Xing Zhen, who had been carefully observing from beginning to end, suddenly had some clarity in his heart. When he was in Qingyang Town, Ge Shuren's injustice to him was probably related to silver.

Just like what Pang Lao in front of him did, he is rich and easy to do. It's just that Pang Lao is for himself and does not persecute others.

Geshu people are the opposite, at least when they treat him seriously, they belong to the kind of people who do bad things with silver.

The cottage people returned with a full load, but they suffered from the Geshu people who had just started any fire and didn't ignite it.

I wanted to do some face-saving projects, give an explanation to the above, and increase my sense of presence in the imperial court. But after a night of turmoil, the sense of presence increased, and the effect was the opposite.

Ge Shuren, who was sitting in the high hall, was furious, and the teacup and kettle tokens were thrown out in one go. The floor of the palace was in shambles, and the tokens were scattered among the various broken porcelain.

Ge Shuren gave an order: "Chase me, chase me quickly." Be sure to find Peach Blossom and Old Man Peach. ”

"Also, be sure to carefully ask the villagers of Xishan Village who the old man Tao's family has contacted. ”

"If someone from the Teng family comes, stop me and say that the official is out to handle the case. At this time, it's either crying or making trouble, who dares to put people in, and the big board is waiting. ”

In the evening of the same day, Ge Shu people came to the "Expensive and Valuable" restaurant again. Spy with the restaurant shopkeeper in a single room.

"Is there any news on the mountain, do you know who did it?"

"Not for the time being, these people are experienced and have left no traces. ”

"When I think about it, a group of older guys shouldn't be difficult to find. ”

"If you think about it, there seems to be a group of bandits in Shuibo Mountain. The age is generally on the high side, and there has been no new blood injection. ”

Ge Shuren said anxiously: "It's troublesome, think about it." ”

The shopkeeper pondered for a moment: "There is such a group of older bandits who have had conflicts with Yu Guang Cottage before. The combat power is really not weak, and if you can't take down the other party, you won't be able to do it at that time. ”

"The specific situation has to wait for the cottage to send back a message. ”

Ge Shuren frowned: "Okay, good, this official is waiting for good news." Go back and send some wine to Brother Hongguang. “
