Chapter 433: The Lin Family Gang
The iron tower was coldly drunk by Ye Shaolong, and even if he reined in, he didn't dare to be presumptuous. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info At this moment, he also realized that he seemed to have run into trouble again.
Facing the iron tower, Ye Shaolong felt very helpless, but this is obviously not the time to investigate, such a big thing has happened here, and when the Japanese find out, there will inevitably be a large number of people coming.
"Now let's all go back and pack up and get out of here immediately." Ye Shaolong commanded, didn't care about urging everyone, he ran back to the house to change his clothes first, and cleaned up by the way.
When he got everything out, everyone was already waiting for him, and after a little count of the heads, they found that nothing was missing, and they left even if they climbed over the wall in the courtyard.
Obviously, at this time, Xia Cheng can no longer stay, and if he wants to stay, he can only go to the suburbs or the countryside. After asking people on the street, Ye Shaolong decided to go to Linjia Village.
This village is the closest to Xia Cheng, and it is the largest village in the surrounding area, I heard that there are generally no pirates in the past to harass it, which is exactly what Ye Shaolong needs in front of him.
Xia Cheng has long been surrounded by Japanese and martial law, which will require a smooth exit from the city, so it is naturally not so easy. In order not to attract the attention of the widows, Ye Shaolong dismantled everyone, went out of the city alone, and then reunited in the city.
After the separation, it really didn't attract the attention of the Japanese invaders, and the Japanese in Xia City hurriedly came to the inn as usual. Obviously, they had already gotten the news, so no one paid attention to Ye Shaolong and them.
More than 20 people left the city gate safely one after another, and rushed to Linjia Village after identifying the direction.
Linjia Village is only more than five miles away from Xiacheng, built against a big mountain, with green waters and green mountains, and the serene and quiet Linjia Village gives people a fresh feeling.
It's a paradise where you can see villagers working in the fields around the village from afar.
As soon as Ye Shaolong's twenty or so people approached the village, they were stopped by more than a dozen strong men who suddenly rushed with sticks.
The leader was a very young man, probably in his early twenties. This person is the young man who appeared on the night of the burning of the Japanese warehouse, and he is also the leader of the Lin family gang.
That night, this Lin gang leader didn't see the true faces of Tie Ta and Li Chengke and the others, so although he saw the two of them, he didn't recognize them, but he just felt a little familiar.
"Who are you and what are you doing here?" Gang Leader Lin looked vigilant.
Ye Shaolong just wanted to be polite, but he didn't expect the tower to be faster than him, and he squeezed forward in two steps and exclaimed, "It's you?" ”
Gang Leader Lin looked at the tower carefully for a moment, but he couldn't see that he knew the person in front of him: "You know me?" ”
Iron Tower laughed, "You forgot about what happened to us at the port last night." ”
"It's you!"
Gang Leader Lin was slightly surprised, he looked at the tower and Li Chengke seriously, especially when he looked at the tower, he finally made sure that the two people in front of him were the people he met last night.
Last night, after emptying the muskets and grain that the would-be robbers had placed in the warehouse, the Lin gang leader ordered someone to set fire to the warehouse, and then on the way back, he ordered someone to go to find out the whereabouts and identities of the iron tower.
Until dawn, he had to report that he could not track down the men, so he gave up. I didn't expect them to send it to the door themselves.
Of course, Gang Leader Lin had no ill will towards Ye Shaolong. As the saying goes, the enemy of the enemy is the friend, in the eyes of the Lin gang leader, as long as the person who is the enemy of the Japanese is a friend of the Lin family gang, so he will send someone to investigate.
At this moment, seeing the tower and their group coming in a hurry, they thought of the news they received this morning, saying that it was the entire martial law in Xia City, and they were obviously arresting the arsonist last night.
Thinking of this, Gang Leader Lin no longer hesitated, and immediately motioned to the iron tower and them to follow him into the village.
Ye Shaolong also understood what was going on, after going back last night, Li Chengke had already said everything. Therefore, Ye Shaolong still knew at this moment that the young man in front of him should be the group of black-clothed people he met in the tower last night.
The village is indeed very large, according to Ye Shaolong's visual measurements, there should be more than 1,000 households in this Linjia Village, and the population should be between four or five thousand people.
Gang Master Lin personally took Ye Shaolong and others to an ancestral hall in the village, and the words 'Lin Family' were written on the door.
Gang Master Lin directly led everyone into the second courtyard of the ancestral hall, and after letting everyone sit down at will in the main hall, he hugged his fists and asked with a smile: "Haven't asked the names of the two eldest brothers yet?" ”
The tower was the first to stand up and introduce: "My name is the tower, that one is called Li Chengke, and this is our young master, Ye Shaolong!" ”
Hearing that the iron tower introduced Ye Shaolong and called him the young master, the Lin gang leader immediately looked at it, then got up and came to him, and said in a serious manner: "I don't know where Ye Gongzi's hometown is?" ”
In the short time that Ye Shaolong entered the village, he also saw that although the Lin Gang Leader in front of him was young, he had a Confucian spirit, thinking that he should be a scholar, so he didn't dare to hold it up, and he replied: "I don't know if the Lin Gang Master has ever heard of the Ye family in the provincial capital?" ”
Gang Master Lin's eyes immediately lit up, and he said with a little excitement: "Could it be that Ye Gongzi is Ye Shaolong of the Ye family in the provincial capital!" ”
Ye Shaolong smiled and nodded: "It's exactly below." ”
"Great!" Gang Leader Lin suddenly burst out laughing excitedly.
"What are you?" Ye Shaolong didn't know what to do, and his face was confused.
Seeing that Ye Shaolong was puzzled, the Lin Gang Leader told him about the Lin family's village.
It turned out that this Lin family village was built by Lin Zexu's descendants, in fact, there are not many people surnamed Lin living in this village, only a dozen households, and the rest are the family members or surviving soldiers of Lin Zexu's navy in the past.
Because the Qing Dynasty had completely perished, the official family was disbanded, and Xia City was completely occupied by the Japanese Invaders. And these original Lin Zexu's subordinates and their descendants fled here and settled here incognito.
They also often secretly oppose the Japanese Bandits, but unfortunately they are weak and can never achieve great things. But a few days ago, there was a person from the rivers and lakes who came from the capital, who was rescued by the Lin gang leader because he was chased and killed by the Japanese bandits, and learned about the capital and Yejiabao from his mouth.
Gang Leader Lin came up with the idea of taking all the villagers to defect, and this matter was also recognized by all the villagers in the village. But because he couldn't go to the capital, and because he couldn't contact Ye Shaolong in advance, he didn't know if he would accept Linjia Village, so the matter was put on hold.
Now that Ye Shaolong has appeared here, Gang Leader Lin is naturally very happy.
After listening to the explanation, Ye Shaolong finally understood. And he cares more about the other party being Lin Zexu's descendants and his subordinates. Moreover, he is also a subordinate of the navy built before, and now he really has no place to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.
