Chapter 21: The Book of Blood

In the flickering firelight, Cheng Ming slowly approached.

He was dressed in the same way as the man in black, except that he was distinguished by his mask. It is a semi-masked mask, covering only the part above the nose, and the whole body is white, except that there are two cracked patterns on the right eye, which adds a bit of anger.

"After a short conversation, I think everyone has understood our rules. When you have the opportunity to have a conversation with us, remember to be concise and to the point. Crying poor, selling miserably, kowtowing and begging for mercy, or saying some unbounded lies are of no use except for wasting time. So when I speak, please don't make a sound. ”

Cheng Ming's indifferent gaze swept over, some people looked at each other forcefully, with resentment in their eyes, some avoided their gaze and their bodies trembled, and some people dodged their gazes with fear in their eyes.

A big man with a bruised face stood up, pointed at Cheng Ming and shouted, "What are you? . . ”

Before the word "thing or thing" was spoken, I felt that the whole person lost consciousness as soon as it was in front of me.

Kong Chen saw a man in black jump up and knock the big man out with one punch.

"Big brother!"

Two more people jumped up, and then the black shadow flashed, and the two men flew out.

The three of them smashed into the bushes like meteors, and without even saying a word, they fainted directly.

Seeing the man in black indifferently turn back, everyone was silent.

Cheng Ming was out of sight.

"I'm the leader of the food club, you can call me Zero!"

Zero is the beginning of all numbers and is the origin of the world. Just like Cheng Ming's gastronomic cells, the journey to transform the world has just begun.

"If you illegally enter the territory of the food club, you will be punished for six months to a year, during which time, if you can get a price that satisfies me, you can also leave early, otherwise you must complete a certain amount of tasks as required.

The rules of the back mountain are very different from the outside world, and if you want to live, you have to adapt to me honestly. ”

After saying this, Cheng Ming turned around and left.

A dark cloud suddenly covered the bright moon, and a dark shadow enveloped Kong Chen's heart.

Looking at the black-clothed people around him, he had a bad premonition.

----

Shen County.

Before the fifth watch's bang rang, the sky was already hazy.

The door of Feng Ji's salt shop opened, and the guy began to unload the board.

"What is this? Blood book? Oh no, something happened! ”

Overhearing something sticking to the door panel, the guy slammed a spirit, as if he had been whipped on the buttocks, and rushed into the store in a hurry.

Shopkeeper Feng was sleeping soundly, and suddenly there was a crying shout in his ears.

"Shopkeeper, no! Shopkeeper, something is wrong! ”

He sat up all at once and shouted irritably, "Shut up, there is no such thing as a rule." ”

The concubine beside him had been awakened, with a hint of nervousness on her blank face.

Shopkeeper Feng patted her and comforted her a little, then got out of bed, opened the door and walked out.

"Why are you so flustered?"

The first time he saw the panicked guy, the kid was still a little trembling, obviously scared enough.

There were two guys next to him who looked at him, and they didn't know how to comfort him, and they were a little at a loss.

The butler hurried over, first bowed his hand, and then said with a wry smile: "Master, it's better for you to see for yourself, I can't say!" ”

He beckoned, and the four men walked up with two large gates.

Shopkeeper Feng's eyes widened instantly, "This is the blood book?" ”

"Yes, it was last night, people silently pasted twenty or thirty copies of blood books on the door of our store, and the dog only saw it when he got up in the morning to open the door!"

The letter was of the same size, neatly affixed to the door panels, each in four rows. Some of them were written in words, some were drawn, and some were simply pressed with a bloody handprint, which made people's hearts tremble.

"There are two handwriting cards that are quite legible, sir, take a look!"

The letter paper was so strong that it was hard to clean.

In order to make it convenient for the shopkeeper Feng, the housekeeper deliberately copied a copy with pen and ink.

Shopkeeper Feng only glanced at it, and his face changed greatly.

"Lieutenant Kong was arrested by the bandits, and asked us for ransom!"

The housekeeper smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid it's not just County Lieutenant Kong, look at this number." What do you say, or burn the door panel and it won't happen! ”

"Can't burn! The thieves have been bullied to the doorstep, and it is useless to pretend to be deaf and dumb. And these things may have unexpected effects! ”

Shopkeeper Feng's eyes flickered, and he finally understood why several of his back hands had failed.

"Send the guys and call the others for me."

"Huh!"

The butler turned to leave.

"Wait, hand over another post to the yamen, and say that I am going to visit the county master in the afternoon and have important matters to discuss."

"Yes!"

The housekeeper hurried away, and about half an hour later, several other shopkeepers hurried over.

In the living room, the two door panels are on the wall, and several shopkeepers are sitting opposite, their faces are ugly.

"This is to argue with us!"

"We still underestimated the power of the cross slope, but we didn't expect that Erlong Mountain could still use such means after hundreds of years!"

"It's just a sudden attack, no one thought that Erlongshan would dare to die."

"Having said all that, what should I do? People can't help but save it! ”

Several shopkeepers quarreled, and no one had an idea.

"Don't make any noise!" Shopkeeper Feng slapped the table, frowned, and said, "The matter has come to this, what's the use of saying this?" Now it's mostly up to who you send out. The green forest hero who spent money to buy, what do you care about his life and death? If you ask someone to invite someone out of the yamen, can you ignore it? ”

Several people smiled bitterly and said: "Shopkeeper Feng, what you said is light, and the heroes of the green forest are not easy to mess with, if you know the reason, I am afraid you will not let us go." ”

"Then why are you letting him know?"

Shopkeeper Feng said lightly: "Won't you give him a better reason?" For example, Erlongshan has bad rules and provokes and kidnaps people? With a little silver tael, I don't believe that these barbarians don't seek revenge from Erlong Mountain! ”

Several people's eyes lit up thoughtfully.

Shopkeeper Feng glanced at the other people again, "You don't need to be in a hurry, you guys have some connections at the yamen, spend some money to exercise and get yourself out of this matter."

Since it was the people in the county government who were taken captive, could the county magistrate turn a blind eye? After a while, a few of you will go with me, not to mention anything else, just say that your goods have been robbed, please ask the county master to call the shots! ”

"Shopkeeper Feng is talking about Erlong Mountain?"

"I mean Cross Slope!" Shopkeeper Feng said meaningfully.

"Oh-!"

Now a few people understood, "Wonderful! That's a great plan! ”

"That's right, if we can get rid of the cross slope by taking advantage of the trend, we can take advantage of the situation to occupy the back mountain."

"But how are these blood books delivered?"

Shopkeeper Feng smiled and said, "Don't worry about this, the mountain people have their own clever plans!" ”
