Liu Er saw Xiaomi walking out of the room, full of joy, "Xiaomi, you left too early, I chased you all the way and didn't see you." ”

Liu Erpla was in the twentieth group, and when he received the money to enter the canteen, Millet had already eaten and drunk enough to go home.

Saying that, Liu Eryi grabbed Xiaomi's placket, "Let's go, go to the side, I'll discuss something with you." ”

Xiaomi hurriedly broke free, he waved his hand again and again, "Forget it tonight, I was just searched by the old lady, and I didn't leave a copper plate; Besides, I'm tired from a day of work, and I'm not in the mood. ”

Liu Er smiled weirdly, "Don't gamble tonight, I want to make money together with you!" Take a walk and find a place to take a closer look at you. Liu Er also wanted to pull Xiaomi away.

"Make money?" Xiaomi didn't believe Liu Er at all, he bent over and squatted on the ground, "Just kidding, when will you also make a living." ”

"Didn't you hear about it a long time ago?" Liu Er looked around for a while, and also squatted down, he lowered his voice, "Huang Long'an, the eldest elder of Monga Sanyi, issued a reward order, and a thief's head can be exchanged for fifty taels of silver." ”

Liu Er told Xiaomi that there is a very hidden path in Zhuziling, east of Shiqiu Ridge, which is very safe, and someone came from Monga through this path two days ago, and someone said that the imperial court was mobilizing heavy troops, and it was going to attack Keelung.

Xiaomi smiled, "Yesterday, the two guys from Monga wanted to touch the sentry in our village, and I heard that the Daming Jinyi guard was arrested today." It turns out that these guys have been hiding from you, no wonder you are in such a hurry, are you afraid that Daming Shun will find you. ”

Xiaomi is also a member of the Tianliao Port Joint Defense Team, and he immediately thought that Liu Er's family lived on the edge of the village, and it was possible to avoid the sentry of the joint defense team.

Liu Er hurriedly denied it, "It's no such thing, they just passed by my house to find something to eat, and left soon." ”

"Come on, don't give me an explanation. Anti-thief, anti-thief! Anyway, it's not me, all the old and young masters up and down Keelung Bay have cut off their braids. Xiaomi was snorting haha in her mouth, thinking in her heart, you have to plug the loophole of Liu Erjia, or something will happen in the future.

"Therefore, we must make up for it as soon as possible, otherwise when the imperial army arrives, it will be over!" As he spoke, Liu Er's eyes lit up, "Besides, this is fifty taels of silver, which is 100 silver dollars." If you work so hard like this, you have to work hard for three years in a row to earn so much. ”

At this moment, a gunshot rang out in the distance from the direction of Lion Ball Ridge.

Millet pouted to Sinunu, "Hear no, another outlaw has fallen." ”

"These years are to support the bold and starve the faint-hearted."

"You don't want to kill the good and take the risk, do you! Keelung Bay is so big, no one in the township knows anyone, I won't follow you to do this kind of thing. ”

"Voice tap, voice tap!" Liu Er slapped the millet hard, and his eyes flashed fiercely, "It's not a hero's doing, let's cut it and cut it a real thief." ”

Liu Er said so in his mouth, in fact, he also wanted to cut down a villager to ask for a reward, but he had to act tonight, otherwise Jinyiwei might come to the door. Liu Er heard that after last night's turmoil, the village strengthened its vigilance, and the joint defense team set up several secret sentinels. Last night, the Hu brothers suffered the loss of the dark whistle, and he was afraid that he would be cut down by others first before he could cut off the head of any villager.

Xiaomi was startled and jumped up from the ground, "Are you crazy, this Ming army also dares to assassinate!" How many Monga people tried to assassinate the Ming army in this section, but the Ming army was unscathed, but they either lost their heads or were arrested, you should know. ”

"Shh Liu Er also stood up, and he looked at the surrounding movements timidly, "Of course I know, I have observed for several days, and this anti-thief defense is really tight, so I can't find a single flaw." This afternoon, though, I suddenly came up with a solution. Two days ago, there were no thieves who suffered a disaster in Badouzi mining, and later they also made a ceremony and buried them on Ershawan Mountain. ”

Liu Er said, Xiaomi remembered, "Yes, we also rested for a long time and went to the mountain for a funeral, this Ming Dynasty is really sympathetic to his subordinates, and the funeral ceremony is really grand, and it is a trumpet, a gun, and a loudspeaker, which makes people feel sad when they hear it." ”

Liu Er said meaningfully, "This is fifty taels!" ”

"What do you mean~~" Xiaomi somewhat understood.

"That's right, let's go to Ershawan Mountain tonight, dig up the grave, and cut off that head."

Actually, Liu Er has been thinking about this matter. But he saw that the Ming army had built several new buildings on Ershawan Mountain, and he was afraid that there would be some organ arrangement on the mountain, so he didn't dare to go up the mountain alone.

But as soon as Liu Er's words were finished, a broom stick flew out of the door, hitting him in the face. Xiaomi's mother jumped out of the house and grabbed Liu Er's clothes, "You scoundrel actually wants to dig up the grave of the dead." This kind of thing that loses its conscience, and dares to take our millet with us, this is to be retributed, and if you do it, you will create evil for your children and grandchildren. ”

The sudden appearance of the old lady startled Liu Er, and he broke away from the old lady's hand like a frightened bird, turned around and ran away.

Liu Er ran away, Xiaomi's mother was still angry, she pointed at Xiaomi's nose and reprimanded, "You make such fox friends and dog friends!" ”

The dozen or so families in Tianliao Gangzhuang gathered very closely, and there was such a commotion in front of Xiaomi's house, and every household was alarmed.

As soon as Xiaomi's mother told the truth of the matter, a group of old men and old ladies in the village immediately became furious, "This kind of thing with five thunders in the sky can't even be imagined!" ”

In the past half a month, everyone has seen the changes in the village. Since the Ming Dynasty drove away the Manchu Qing Dynasty, all the taxes and taxes were gone, the roads in the village were leveled, the sewers were cleaned up, and even the garbage heaps in front of the houses in the village were all gone, not to mention that the village had become clean, and even a group of idlers and lazy people had become diligent, and every household had surplus silver, and everyone became happy. On the contrary, the Manchu Qing sent people to cut off their heads indiscriminately, causing harm to the village, and causing everyone in the village to endanger themselves at night.

"That's right, what's wrong with this Ming Dynasty!" A group of young people in the village also shouted.

The Ming Dynasty did not forcibly levy and expropriate, and the materials needed would only be purchased, whether it was chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cattle and sheep, as long as you sent it to the Tianliao River, they would all buy it in cash, and the price was very fair, and the children were not bullied; Second, they don't send errands indiscriminately, recruit people to work, and the wages are also kind, all of which are shiny little silver cakes.

"Folks, let me say a few words." Tianliao Harbor Zhuang Zhuang Zheng Chen Qili walked in from behind the crowd.

"Village Chief Chen is here, let's listen to Village Chief Chen!"

Taiwan's local autonomy is like this, and the prefectures and counties are divided into several prime districts, each of which is composed of several prime ministers, and each prime minister district has a prime minister and a director to oversee the affairs of the villages and neighborhoods under it. Each village and street village has a separate chief and deputy to manage the affairs of the village. After the Ming Dynasty came, Zhuang Zheng and Deputy Zhuang of the Qing Dynasty were reappointed and dismissed, and renamed as the village chief and deputy village head.

Chen Qili is a man in his forties, his ancestors contracted more than a dozen acres of thin fields from the Big Chicken Coop Society, which were later reclaimed into paddy fields, and also opened two small coal kilns. After the Ming Dynasty landed in Keelung, Chen Qili was reluctant to give up his two small coal kilns, so he did not go to Monga. After cutting off the braids, Chen Qili's anxious heart suddenly became calm. As soon as Long wanted to be early, he followed Wu Chang and Wu Qiolin wholeheartedly, running errands for the Ming Dynasty, and he worked very hard to give advice.

"Folks!" Chen Qili's white beard was curled, "We are all people with braids, and for us, the Manchu Qing Dynasty is the sworn enemy!" ”

"Yes, the Manchus are our sworn enemies!" The villagers of Tianliao Gangzhuang echoed one after another.

Chen Qili was very satisfied with the effect of his words, and waved the crutch in his hand, "Liu Er is mad, forgetting his ancestors, and he must not stay in our Tianliao Port anymore." ”

"By the way, Liu Er must not stay in our Tianliao Port anymore!" All the villagers present agreed.

Liu Er's parents have died a long time ago, he is idle all day long, and he is close to a group of fox friends who gamble money, and no one in the village is willing to speak for him.

Chen Qili tapped with his cane and selected a few young people from the joint defense team, "Xiaomi, and you, go quickly, tie Liu Er to Ershawan Fort!" ”

Several young people snorted, turned around and ran to Liu Er's house.

Liu Er was frightened by Xiaomi's mother just now, and ran back to his home in one breath. Liu Er was already a disciple of the four walls, and there was only one wooden bed left in the room. He sat on the edge of the bed, the more he thought about it, the more scared he became, Xiaomi's mother was very loud just now, if someone reported it to Ming Jun, he would be finished.

No, we have to go!

There were no valuable things at home, so Liu Er only cleaned up his clothes and rolled them into a burden on his back. As soon as he was about to go out, he blocked several people in the house.

"Liu Er, hurry up and arrest it, so as not to hurt the harmony."

Seeing that the situation was not good, Liu Er picked up a shovel by the wall and put it against the door of the house, "What do you want to do?" They are all friends who play cards together, do you really want to fight to the death? ”

Seeing Liu Er's desperate look, Xiaomi and a few others didn't have anything in their hands, so they couldn't help but take two steps back, "Liu Er, it's not that we can't get along with you, who made you bent on dealing with Daming!" ”

"What Daming, isn't it just a group of anti-thieves! At the beginning of the year, a group of Daming also came, and they also occupied Lion Ball Ridge, and in the end, it was not killed by the imperial court. Liu Er also let go, he straightened his waist, "Tell you, the imperial court has sent heavy troops again, Monga has gathered thousands of troops and horses, or it will be suppressed, you must not go all the way to the dark, and then it will be finished together!" ”

These young people often play cards with Liu Er, and there is no conflict of interest with Liu Er, at this time, listening to Liu Er's evil words, I can't help but feel a little timid, and they start to exchange glances with each other, and no one is willing to take the initiative.

Liu Er saw the opportunity and immediately rushed to the door, holding a shovel and slashing at the millet on the far left. There was only one stone in Xiaomi's hand, and he knew that it was powerful, so he hurriedly dodged backwards. Xiaomi's retreat just left a gap for Liu Er. Liu Er carried a shovel and ran desperately to the back of the house against the wall. There was a hole in the fence wall behind Liu Er's house, and outside was the avenue outside the village, so he threw the shovel in the direction that Xiaomi was chasing, and bent down to pass through the hole.

Millet saw the shovel flying over, flashed sideways, and the shovel flew past against his ear. The millet was on fire, and he waved the stone in his hand and smashed it hard.

With a "bang", the stone hit Liu Er's leg, and he stumbled to the ground with a "poof". Xiaomi used enough strength just now, and Liu Er's legs were swollen all of a sudden, and he couldn't get up for a long time. Several men ran over and grabbed his arms and pressed him to the ground.

Although several people subdued Liu Er, they couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.

"Xiaomi, what now?"

Millet ripped a few rattan sticks from the fence wall, "Tie him up first." ”

Liu Er was tied up, but he was still not convinced, "Xiaomi, don't be blindfolded by lard, wait for the arrival of the imperial army~~" Before he finished speaking, a handful of mud blocked his mouth.

Xiaomi clapped his hands, "Let's go!" Escort him to Anlan City. ”
