The people on the lake embankment gradually left, the villagers did not say a word with a contradictory heart, in this era of the people, the common people only care about two things, one is the ancestors, worship the heavens, the earth and the ghosts, they believe in karma, until the last resort is not to destroy the feng shui of other people's ancestral tombs, this is to be retributed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The other is livelihood, the capital on which they live, who makes them unable to live, they often make unimaginable moves, even if it is to destroy the feng shui of other people's ancestral tombs, just for their livelihood, the two are contradictory but reasonable.

Jiang Wanhe is also conflicted in his heart, maintaining the Jiang family's wealth and fortune is a responsibility that he must fulfill, but is it really right to exchange the livelihood of the whole village? Who will be the winner in this contest? Jiang Wanhe, who was lying on the bed, tossed and turned, unable to sleep for a long time.

No matter who wins, Steward Hu has always controlled the overall situation and now seems to be the most fruitful bystander, persuading the people to farm and mulberry is the primary responsibility of a county master, and today this Lord Lu seems to be planted, this thing can make Steward Hu who was lying in the west wing of the Jiang family giggle, the young man is younger, he closed his eyes beautifully, and seemed to be able to see Lu Fei's embarrassment when he left Susong County in his sleep, with this joy, Steward Hu fell asleep.

A crescent moon hung high in the sky, the lake was sparkling, and the four officials were leaning against the willow trees by the lake in pairs with swords, napping, and it was estimated that they had already thrown the task of protecting the county master out of the clouds.

The wooden house on the island in the middle of the lake was full of candles, Lu Fei was half-lying on the cool bed, his eyelids drooped, and he was about to fall asleep, as if the two villagers had not affected his mood today, a mosquito buzzed in his face for a while, landing on the tip of his nose, Lu Fei subconsciously rubbed it, and turned sideways with his mouth in a daze.

There was only one bed in the cabin, and for the sake of the county master's safety, Li Shun refused the accommodation arranged by Jiang Wanhe and insisted on making a bunk next to Lu Fei's bed.

The conditions of the several villages under Jiang Wanhe's jurisdiction are still good, if you go further, the county magistrate is afraid that it will be too difficult to even find a decent place to live, where is it like today's leadership at the grassroots level, the car hula la, eat and drink and hula la, and there is no dirty atmosphere.

Li Shun is destined to lose sleep tonight, the old man doesn't know the impact behind this matter, but he knows too well, just now he was in a hurry to pull the old man away for fear that the old man would offend the three heads in a hurry, the scene is obvious that the villagers and the Jiang Lichang and Steward Hu are all standing on the same front, everyone is pointing the finger at the county master, and if he doesn't leave at this time, isn't that a public anger.

Leaving that is only temporary, the matter has to be solved after all, what should I do, Li Shun, who was sitting on the straw mat, looked at the young county master, why was he not in a hurry at all, did he really just push 625 and didn't care?

Thinking about it, Li Shun couldn't hold on anymore and finally fell asleep.

When the last oil lamp in the village was extinguished, there was silence, and a small black shadow under the white moonlight quickly swept towards Jiangjiahu.

The man was thin, masked with a cloth towel, a long sword in his hand shining in the moonlight, silent under his feet, quick movements, and a few ups and downs to the edge of the lake.

The officials who watched the night were already asleep and made loud noises.

The man walked on tiptoe, quietly and silently passed by the servant, untied the rope from the small boat by the lake, shook the pulp gently, and slowly walked towards the small island in the middle of the lake.

She is Ling Dan, her former home is not far from here, separated by a few villages, but there are only a bunch of broken walls left, and now Ling Dan is hated by this official who is acting for the tiger, Jiang Zhongren is dead, but the newly sent official who came to collect the fishing rent is here again, whoever comes is Ling Dan's enemy.

The candle flame in the wooden house had long been extinguished, and a steady snoring sound was coming from the cabin, Ling Dan leaned in front of the window and looked inside, then took a knife from his ankle, and gently slashed open the door of the cabin, and only heard a slight sound, and the door opened.

Ling Dan jumped forward, and the whole person rushed into the house.

"Ouch, step on my foot," Li Shun, who was lying on the ground, shouted.

Ling Dan was startled, why was there still a person sleeping on the ground, and before this person could get up, Ling Dan made a hard move in his hand, and the hilt of the sword hit Li Shun's neck, and with a 'bang', Li Shun fell to the ground and fainted.

Lu Fei also woke up from his sleep, and before he could react, a long sword with cold light was already on his neck.

"If you dare to scream, I will cut your neck" A woman's voice sounded, which was dull and powerful.

Lu Fei stared at his eyes and didn't dare to come out, his scalp was numb, what's wrong, is this trying to kill for money.

"This, this woman, the sword is not long-eyed, be careful, you, what do you want to do?" Lu Fei held on to the desk next to the bed, slowly stood up, and said tremblingly.

"You're the new county master?" Ling Dan stepped forward, and the long sword lay under Lu Fei's neck, pressing him against the wall of the wooden house.

A faint aroma of orchids rushed into Lu Fei's nasal cavity, and the woman's unique body fragrance quickly traveled all over Lu Fei's body, this woman's face covered with a silk scarf was close at hand, he could feel the other party's heartbeat and soft chest when he squeezed himself, at this moment, Lu Fei's mind was empty, forgetting that he was in danger, and his body shamefully reacted physiologically.

Ling Dan felt as if something was slowly pushing against her in her lower abdomen, and the two lowered their heads at the same time, and Lu Fei laughed.

Ling Dan's face flushed, but fortunately, she didn't show her embarrassment with her face covered, and then slapped her hand, "obscene"

As soon as the woman was nervous, she lost her head, Lu Fei shrank his head, hugged his face, jumped on the bed, away from the long sword that could kill him at any time, and said with a smile, "This girl, you actually know that I am the county master, but you know that the killer is going to be cut by a thousand knives."

Ling Dan's face flushed, annoyed and angry, and the tip of the sword went straight to Lu Fei's chin, "I originally thought you were a good official, and I only wanted to give you a warning tonight, but I didn't expect that you, a dog official, are still a shameless and obscene person, and it will be a disaster to keep you sooner or later."

As he spoke, Ling Dan raised his sword and was about to stab.

Lu Fei saw that she was killing again, and panicked, this woman has a deep blood feud with the government, she really fell into blood mold, it must be the sin that Wang Zhongren did before, and now I am also involved, who provoked me with this trick.

Lu Fei casually took a book on the desk and put it in front of the tip of the sword, and said, "Girl, don't be, if you have something to say, if you have any grievances, tell me about them, as long as there is really a grievance, I, I am duty-bound."

Where did Ling Dan listen to his explanation, his hand sank, the long sword straightened, picked open the book in Lu Fei's hand, and shouted softly, "Words can't save your life."

The long sword pierced through the night, holding up a burst of white light in front of Lu Fei, and slashed directly at his face door with a snort.

Ling Dan's long sword stopped within a glance of Lu Fei's Adam's apple, "Do you have any last words to confess?" ”

Lu Fei turned his head sideways and slowly opened his eyes, staring at the sharp blade at his chin, not daring to move, he suddenly remembered that the scene in front of him seemed to have seen it somewhere, yes, by the way, isn't that the scene where Zixia Fairy killed the Supreme Treasure, the plot should be after a quarter of a pillar of incense, Zixia Fairy put down the long sword and fell in love with the man under the sword completely, and succumbed to the monkey's lies.

Lu Fei racked her brains, searching her intestines and stomach, thinking, what can she do to bluff her, she kept scolding the dog official, then she must not kill a good official, so a lie was slowly brewing in his heart.

"Girl" Lu Fei thought about the tragic days when he rushed to Susong to take office a few days ago and gnawed on the road when he took office, he squeezed out a few tears, and felt sad, "Girl, do it, I, I don't blame you, I only blame this ruthless world, hey!" There was once a young man who studied hard for more than 20 years, far away from his hometown alone, thousands of miles away, trekking through mountains and rivers, going through a lot of hardships, rushing to the capital, fantasizing that he could rely on his full stomach to be named on the gold list, and one day be able to serve as an official and benefit the common people in the world. But unexpectedly, this world is too difficult, corrupt officials are rampant, officials protect each other, where is there a place for a good official like me who is dedicated to the people, it is difficult to support it alone, that's it, girl, you hurry up, it can be regarded as helping me to get free, I will walk slowly on the Huangquan Road, I hope this good official and difficult world will pass soon, come on, help me get rid of it"

As he spoke, he slowly closed his eyes, and tears of love came out of his eyes.

Lu Fei's face was not red, his heart was not beating, and he opened his mouth to come to such a piece of that even he didn't believe, but when he said this, he secretly glanced at the woman with the sword, the murderous aura in her eyes was slowly decreasing, and gradually turned into a kind of sympathy and sentimentality, Lu Fei secretly rejoiced in his heart, this female chivalrous guest of the Tang Dynasty was really easy to fool.

Ling Dan's heart shook suddenly, she almost couldn't hold the long sword in her hand, she was blaming herself, regretting it, where could she kill such a good official for the country and the people, no, she couldn't do it.

Ling Dan slowly lowered the long sword in her hand, but at this moment, she secretly cursed herself in her heart, how could she believe him so lightly, was he lying.

Just when Lu Fei was secretly rejoicing, Ling Dan reached out and grabbed Lu Fei by the collar and was about to pull him out.

"Yay! Yes! That's not the plot, girl, where is this going to take me? Lu Fei waved his hand and shouted, his steps unsteady and stumbling.

"Ouch, it's stepping on my hand," Li Shun, who had just woken up from a fainting, shouted again.

Ling Dan lifted his feet, 'bang', and Li Shun fainted on the ground again.

Lu Fei was escorted by Ling Dan with a sword, got on a small boat, came to the shore of the lake, and disappeared into the dark night in a blink of an eye.

The moon was in the sky, and it was already the middle of the night.

At this time, there were bursts of dog barking from the quiet and peaceful fishing village, which was quick and short, and then calmed down again.

In the hazy moonlight, a husband and wife are tiptoeing to the right and right on the path leading to Jiangjiahu, they are hurrying, the man carrying a circle of thick hemp rope on his shoulder, and the woman holding tightly an iron rake that she usually uses to harrow grass.

The woman looked back and forth, looked nervous, followed closely behind the man, and after walking a few steps, she pulled the corner of his man's clothes, and said softly, "His father, you said that ten taels of gold is a lot of money?" Can we really get it? ”

The man was tireless, "Be quiet, I'm afraid others won't hear it, right, I don't know how much it is, it's a lot anyway, remember, if you get rich, you're not allowed to buy meat to eat every day."

The woman was stunned, "Oh, I know, wait a minute, his father, do you see if there is a person in front of you?" ”

The two walked over a fence wall, and when they turned a corner, there seemed to be a figure walking forward in the night ahead, also in a hurry, and walking with a limp.

The man stopped, looked carefully, and said softly, "Look at those legs and feet, it seems to be the second crutch of the Li family."

"Who?" The figure in front of him heard their conversation and stopped and looked around.

When the couple saw each other, they walked over.

"Ah, it's a second crutch, where are you going to tie the rope in the middle of the night?" The man greeted him with a smile.

Seeing that it was someone from the village, the second crutch smiled and touched the back of his head, "I can't sleep, come out for a walk, Uncle Zhao, where are you going, why are you tying ropes?" ”

The couple also smiled, "We can't sleep either, come out for a walk"

The second crutch smiled mysteriously, "Who are you bluffing, are you thinking about the piece of gold in the lake?"

The three of them are all for the same purpose, Zhao Si is very unhappy, how can the baby that is about to arrive be the first to give people the lead, humming and pulling his daughter-in-law, he said while walking forward, "You kid, you came early, you came as soon as the chicken crowed"

The second crutch quickened his pace and followed, pointing ahead, "Hey, I'm too late, the brothers of the third baby have already walked over"

Zhao Siyi was nervous, "Yo, then you have to hurry"

The three of them walked together, along the way, each family carried the competent guys and joined in one after another, the team grew rapidly, the men, women and children of the whole village were like players walking on the track and field field, full of energy, scrambling to go straight to the Jiangjia Feng Shui Lake.

In Lingjia Village, a few miles away from Jiangjia Lake, Ling Dan pushed Lu Fei to the broken wall of a thatched house that had already collapsed.

Ling Danxiu's eyebrows tightened, the sword in his hand pointed at Lu Fei, and said in a low voice, "Do you know where this is?" ”

After being dragged by her for several miles, Lu Fei was panting, his butt was against the wall, his hands were supporting his knees, and he glanced around through the hazy moonlight, he was not so scared now, it seemed that this female swordsman was hesitating, eighty percent of them couldn't die, he shook his head, gasped and said, "I, how do I know, what are you bringing me here for?" ”

Ling Dan threw down the sword in his hand, was silent for a while, and said, "This is my home, Lingjia Village"

"Lingjia Village?" Lu Fei repeated, shaking his head thoughtfully, "I haven't heard of it."

Ling Dan covered his face and couldn't see his expression, but Lu Fei was sure that this woman was sad about something that was difficult to mention, because her tone when she spoke was very light, and there was no murderous aura at all, just like two friends chatting about each other's hearts.

"The former family, of course you don't know, in the eyes of you officials, what are we ordinary people, what have you done to me, you don't know where Lingjia Village is, you don't know how many people are forced to die by the government in Lingjia Village a year, but you know better than anyone how much taxes and rents Lingjia Village has to pay in a year, right" Ling Dan seemed to want to vent all his resentment, but he was angry but calm.

Lu Fei probably understood a little, this female swordsman may have been oppressed by the government before, and her family was gone, so she began to hate this society and hated the officials, but these Lu Fei was not interested, the only thing he was thinking about now was how to get out, how to leave from under this woman's sword, fight, it is estimated that it is enough to choke, run, think about this woman's skills, this idea was immediately dispelled, and in the end, it was that trick, cheat!

Lu Fei gasped and cleared his throat, "Girl, I am deeply sympathetic and regretful for what happened to you, but there is a way to be wronged and there is a debtor, who harmed you, who are you looking for, there are still a few unjust cases in my county office, everyone has been busy recently, I won't bother you sad, I remember the way back, I won't send it to you, goodbye"

Lu Fei was about to leave, Ling Dan's long sword was horizontal, blocking his chest, and he snorted lightly, "Go, where are you going?" Tell me, will you really be a good officer? ”

"Well, of course, it is my ideal to ask for the people's life, and it is my life's motto" Lu Fei nodded hurriedly.

"Proof it to me?" Of course, Ling Dan couldn't just trust him.

"How do you need to prove this, you see me running around in this ravine on a hot day, I don't just want to help the people do something, you see, this head is injured, it will take at least a year and a half to recover"

"It's just your own fault, I'm afraid you're here for the fishing rent of the Gunma Mansion, right? There is also the opening of Jiangjiahu, what have you done for the people, and when you encounter a little problem, you will retreat, which is also called doing things sincerely for the people? ”

Lu Fei was very surprised, this chick had been staring at her, but her words were not entirely right, but she really couldn't explain it for a while.

"This girl, I can see that you are also a person with good intentions, and I will not explain what you said for the time being, but I can assure you that I will definitely handle these two things properly and stand in the position where a good official should stand."

"How long?" Ling Dan was very willing to believe that there was really such a good official.

"Three days, oh no, ten days" Lu Fei stretched out a pair of slaps.

"Okay, ten days, I'll give you ten days, if it's not handled fairly, you know what the end will be" Ling Dan is not threatening, she can really do what she says.

"You know, I know, can I go now?" Lu Fei breathed a long sigh of relief, his life was finally saved.

"Slow, there is one more thing, I heard that there was a murder in Wuliyi, and the county Cheng Wang Zhongren died at the hands of bandits, what is the county master going to do?" Ling Dan withdrew his sword.

Lu Fei was very puzzled, why did this woman care about everything, what did she want to do? How to answer so as not to arouse her disgust, bandits have been a derogatory term since ancient times, everyone shouts and beats, does she think the same way?

"I'm angry when I talk about this" Lu Fei suddenly became righteous and strict, and slapped his face, "Lawless, dare to commit evil on the edge of the county, I don't take the county master as a wrist, don't worry, girl, I will arrange for people to kill him when I go back."

Lu Fei said that he was rising, and even boasted about it, and he had an attitude of being incompatible with this gang of bandits.

"What? You have to go in and suppress "Ling Dan's long sword is already in his hand, and he will cut it with a swing of the sword.

At this time, a figure sprang out from behind the broken wall, holding Ling Dan's hand tightly, "Sister, don't hurt him"

Ling Danliu's eyebrows were upside down, and she raised her arm to push Ling Ning away, this time she moved again, gritting her teeth and saying, "Did you hear what he said?" ”

Sister? Lu Fei was stunned, Lingjia Village? A pair of homeless sisters?

Lu Fei shuddered in his heart, while recalling the deeds of the female bandits that Li Shun had told him about, he looked at the two scarve-masked sisters carefully, their figures were almost identical, under the moonlight, the contours of the faces of these two people were almost the same, one was fierce, good at reporting grievances, the other was gentle and affectionate, oh my God, this is the bandit leader on a mountain, the green shirt!

Lu Fei really wanted to slap himself a few mouths on the spot, which pot was not opened, which pot was not mentioned, didn't this look for death, in front of the bandit leader, he said that he would kill them without leaving a piece of armor, his mouth was really owed.

Ling Ning grabbed Ling Dan's arm again, shook it gently, and was so anxious that tears were about to fall, "Sister, he didn't mean that, you killed him now, how can you see his promise in ten days, in case you kill a good official by mistake, wouldn't you regret it for the rest of your life, sister, think about it again"

Lu Fei's brain reacted quickly, and he smiled, "Yes, yes, this long night is long, the cool breeze is gusting around, everyone is chatting so closely, let's make a joke and entertain it, rest assured, the county master will never kill innocents indiscriminately, let alone let go of a wicked person."

Ling Dan raised his long sword and said coldly, "Full of nonsense, listen, the mountain is full of righteous people who have no choice but to go up the mountain and fall into the grass, if you dare to fight the idea of killing, I swear, even if you have a good official residence, I will not let you go, you go, see you in ten days"

Lu Fei swallowed his saliva, moved the tip of the sword that was trembling slightly in front of him, and hurriedly ran away the same way.

Ling Dan put the sword into the sheath, pulled Ling Ning's shoulder, and brushed the hair on her forehead, she understood that her little sister's mind was at the age when love first opened, she didn't blame her sister's innocence, and said softly, "Little sister, it doesn't matter if you believe him, but remember, he is an official, we are thieves, and we should never think about it, you know?" ”

Ling Ning turned sideways and lowered his head to play with the corners of his clothes, his heart was seen through, and he couldn't help but feel a little shy, and muttered, "Sister, what are you talking about, I just don't want to see you kill a good official by mistake, besides, I haven't even said a word to him, you are too careful."

Ling Dan took his sister's hand, and the two walked side by side in the moonlight, "I hope so, people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, what you see and hear is not necessarily true, sister, look at this kid's oily tone, he is not a serious person, a good official may be possible, but not necessarily a good person to rely on, you know"

Saying this, Ling Dan couldn't help but think of the scene in the cabin in the middle of the lake just now, her face was already crimson, but no one noticed it, and she seemed to be reminding herself when she was talking about Ling Ning.

"Sister, I know" Ling Ning said something against her sister for the first time, just for a man she couldn't hope for who she had only met a few times and hadn't said a word.

The morning sun is rising, a round of rising sun is rising on the eastern horizon, the swallows in the sky are busy preparing for today's breakfast, wisps of cooking smoke are rising above the villages surrounded by green forests in the distance, and a few cow moos echo in the air......

Li Shun stretched his arms and yawned as he walked out of the cabin, rubbing the back of his neck, sleepy-eyed, "Ouch, why does your neck hurt so much, master, master, where are you?" Master! ”
