Zhang Yuan and his entourage of more than 60 people took two three-oared wave boats, set sail from the south port of Qingpu City at the end of the Mao Dynasty, went down the big Huangpu, and went ashore at the Huating Beicang Wharf at the beginning of the time, in addition to Lu Tao, Zhang Dai, Zhang Cao, Liu Jingting, there are more than 20 Qingpu students such as Yang Shixiang, Hong Daotai, Jin Bozong, etc., and the other is the servants of all the beings, all of them are strong and sturdy, all with sticks, this is to guard against the green hands of Songjiang to fight - as soon as Zhang Yuan and the others went ashore, they heard the porter and porter on the wharf saying that Dong Zuchang killed a living man, The friend of the student is suing the official, and the mother and wife of the student are crying out to go to the Dong Mansion to cry...... Zhang Yuan was taken aback, and hurriedly asked the name of the student, and a porter replied: "It's Fan Xiucai, Fan Xiucai who lives in the Xiangxian Temple." ”

Hong Daotai is very familiar with Huating, and he also has a lot of contacts with Huating Zhusheng, and said: "Mo is not Fan Chang Fan Sheng, and he lives in the area of the Xiangxian Temple with Brother Lang. ”

Zhang Yuan asked the porter: "How did Fan Shengren die?" ”

The porter replied: "It is said that Dong Zuchang fell in love with one of Fan Shengyuan's concubines, so he led the slaves to rush into Fan's house and rob the concubine, and also injured Fan Shengyuan. ”

Another porter said: "Didn't there be a list of scolding Dong Hanlin on the dock yesterday, and the people of the Dong family were looking for the list everywhere, and some people said that Fan Shengren was killed by Dong Zuchang because of that list." ”

This porter said more credibly, Zhang Yuan asked, "What about the list?" ”

The footman said: "It has long been taken away by the Dong family." ”

Hong Daotai said: "Let's go to Brother Lang's place to see what is going on." ”

Zhang Yuan and his entourage rushed to the Xiangxian Temple, just met Weng Yuansheng and Jiang Shiqiao who came from the Chenghuang Temple, Dong Zuchang killed Fan Xiucai The news has spread throughout the city, Weng and Jiang heard about it, they were shocked, Fan Chang was drinking with them at noon yesterday, how did he die overnight, so the two of them each brought a few healthy servants to protect them, and rushed to visit the Xiangxian Temple - Weng Yuansheng hurriedly told Zhang Yuan, Lu Tao and others about the situation of meeting Fan Chang yesterday, Hong Daotai had returned from Jin Lang's house, saying that Jin Langzhi had gone to Songjiang Mansion to avenge Fan Chang's grievances.

As he was talking, he heard the sound of mourning, and a group of women dressed in linen and filial piety came over, it was Fan Chang's mother Feng, his wife Gong and other female relatives of Fan's mansion, and behind him was Fan's servant carrying Fan Chang's corpse, and wanted to go to Dong's mansion to cry and complain about the theory - Zhang Yuan stepped forward and said deeply to Fan Chang's mother Feng: "Old Mrs. Fan, the younger generation and Brother Fan are friends, Brother Fan was unfortunately killed, the younger generation is sad and angry, the old lady is old and frail, don't go to the Dong Mansion to theorize, if the Dong Mansion can be theoretical, it is not the Dong Mansion, the Dong father and son are extremely vicious, If you have done everything, you should go to the government to complain first. ”

Fan Chang's mother, Feng Shi, was supported by two servant women, crying: "Pity my son for his tragic death, the old woman will definitely pay for that Dong Zuchang's life." Walking forward with a cane, Fan Chang's wife and a group of relatives and daughters of Fan's Mansion cried and cried to follow.

Zhang Yuan saw that he couldn't be dissuaded, so he said to Yang Shixiang, Hong Daotai and others: "Brother Yang, Brother Hong, you and all the living beings of Qingpu will go to the Songjiang Mansion to make a strong name for Brother Lang - brother-in-law, you also go to the Mansion to complain, and I, the eldest brother, the third brother, Brother Weng, and Brother Jiang cheer for Mrs. Fan, don't let the people of the Dong Mansion hurt Mrs. Fan." ”

There are not too many servants to go to the mansion, Lu Tao, Yang Shixiang and others left a dozen healthy servants to protect Zhang Yuan and them - the weather is extremely hot, the entire Huating City is like a huge steamer, the hot fog is filled, although the sun is blazing, but it is a little dim, there are clouds piling up in the high sky, and a rainstorm is coming.

Mu Jingyan held a whistle stick on his shoulder, his eyes were like an eagle, he glanced at the onlookers and the people who were following, and told his daughter: "Really, take good care of Young Master Jiezi, never leave an inch, the people of the Dong family hate Young Master Jiezi the most, and there are people everywhere, you have to cheer up and be on guard." ”

Mu Zhenzhen's waist straightened, and he nodded solemnly and said, "My daughter knows." "Follow Zhang Yuan closely.

Dong Zuchang's mansion is near Maqi Temple in the west of the city, more than two miles away from the ancestral hall of the hometown, when the Fan's female family is about to arrive in front of the Dong Mansion, there are already thousands of people following the onlookers, Liu Jingting is in the crowd while walking loudly "Black and White Biography", ordinary people can not understand the "calligraphy and painting is difficult to speak of the heart", this easy-to-understand "Black and White Biography" is understandable, Liu Jingting's storytelling is more infectious, and there is this tragic tragedy that is happening bloody as evidence, Dong Ping said that he is rich and unkind, rampant in the township, and has a very poor reputation in Huating, At this time, the people's resentment was boiling, and the people gathered more and more, and flocked to the outside of Dong Zuchang's mansion - Zhang Yuan said loudly: "Everyone, the Dong family colluded with the fighter, bullied the good, and the neighbors of the fish and meat, you all took a look carefully, if there is a Dong family and the beating green hand mixed in, immediately shout and beat, don't be afraid, today everyone is angry, and when you see the fight and the Dong family, you will fight." ”

The crowd shook for a while, and suddenly someone shouted, "This person is the one who fights—"

I saw a man wearing a wide-brimmed scarf and a green cloth shirt and pants squeezing through the crowd and running away, being chased and beaten all the way, and a stone on the back of his head, blood flowing, and he fled very quickly and hid in the door wall of Dong Zuchang's mansion.

…… That Dong Zu Chang had already sent eyes and ears to monitor Fan's house, and when he learned that Fan's female dependents were carrying the corpse to cry, Dong Zu Chang was furious and roared: "Fan Chang didn't die here with me, he died of heat stroke, what does it have to do with me, those Fan shrews dare to come, I will let people pull their hair, strip their skirts, and make them very ugly." ”

Wu Long and Wang Dazhui, the leaders of the bank, hurriedly came, and Wu Long said to Dong Zuchang: "Dong Gongzi, that Zhang Yuan has also arrived in Huating, and he is coming here with the Fan family's female relatives to make trouble." ”

Dong Zuchang shouted, excited and angry, and shouted: "Is Zhang Yuan's kid here, great, this time he will definitely die here." ”

Another Dong family member came to report, saying that thousands of people had come with the Fan family's female dependents, and the momentum was menacing - Dong Zu often said angrily: "What do these Diao people want to do!" Hurry up and let people report to Wu Tuiguan, and send more messengers to arrest the troublemakers. ”

Chen Ming, the traitor slave of the Lu family, was also on Dong Zuchang's side, and said: "With Zhang Yuan here, I am afraid that Fan Chang's death will not be good, and the second son must prepare early." ”

Dong Zuchang sneered: "This is Huating, not Shaoxing, will I be afraid of Zhang Yuan's boy." Said to Wu Long: "Gather a few young hands with outstanding fists and feet, and rush out to kill Zhang Yuan." ”

Wu Long's face was embarrassed, they were mixed up in the market, they were not lawless bandits and robbers, they always had some scruples, and asked them to kill a Xiucai in public, this is not something they dare to do, and said: "Second son, Fan Chang's accidental violent death is already a lot of trouble, if Zhang Yuan is killed again at this time, it will be difficult for the second son to clean up." ”

Dong Zu often shouted: "I don't care, I just want Zhang Yuan to die, Wu Long, raise soldiers for a thousand years, my Dong family to protect you is not short, think about it yourself, if there is no Dong family, you Wu Long can have today?" ”

Wu Long said with a smile: "Second son, the villain is also for the sake of the second son, if Zhang Yuan is killed in front of the Dong family, the second son will not be able to get out of it, the Shanyin Zhang family is also very powerful, it will inevitably cause a big dispute, the villain has a plan, can make the second son out of this evil spirit——"

Dong Zu often said: "Tell me about it." ”

Wu Long said: "The second prince also knows the villain's methods, as long as the villain is allowed to punch Zhang Yuan's back, either three months, five months, or one year, then Zhang Yuan's death date will be determined by the second son." ”

Wu Long has a unique secret method, hitting people or chest or flank, or lower abdomen or lower back, as long as a punch, the dark strength penetrates the body, at that time I don't feel seriously injured, but I can make the injured die regularly, because he is not killed on the spot, he can not be prosecuted by the law, impunity, he once used this method to kill three people, all of them died of illness a year after being beaten, and at that time the legal investigation period has passed, he does not have to pay for his life, at most he is responsible for the rod - Dong Zuchang is not very satisfied, and asked: "Is the shortest one three months?" ”

Wu Long said: "The shortest is only three months, and if the punch is heavy, the internal organs will immediately bleed profusely, and he will die on the spot, which is not good." ”

Dong Zu often said: "I just want to kill Zhang Yuan on the spot, so as to vent the hatred in my heart, and die in three months, I can't see it, it's not interesting." ”

Wu Long was silent, and said in his heart: "I have no grudge against Zhang Yuan, how can I be so desperate and kill Zhang Yuan, and the Dong family and father and son can't protect me, I can only leave Huating's huge family business and flee to another country, so wouldn't it be in vain for me for so many years." ”

Dong Zu saw Wu Long's refusal, although he was very dissatisfied, he had to give up, and said: "It's up to you, let Zhang Yuan die in three months, you go to beat him now, he doesn't know you, you are very easy to succeed, there are many mixed people, Zhang Yuan kid was hit with a fatal punch and I don't know who hit him, and he died in three months, haha." ”

Wu Long thought about it reasonably, and took advantage of the chaos to bully Zhang Yuan's side and punch Zhang Yuan, then he didn't have to bear any guilt, and immediately said: "Okay, the villain will go." ”

At this moment, Wang Da Hammer came in with a beating green hand, this person was sent by Wu Long to inquire about the news, this beating Xingqing hand covered the back of his head, his head and neck were bloody, Wu Long hurriedly asked what was going on?

The beating hand lost too much blood, his face was pale, he sat down on the ground, and said: "Big brother, those people outside will beat the people who see us beating the line, and they also say that they will also beat the people of the Dong family when they see them." ”

Dong Zu often jumped like thunder and shouted: "Wu Long, hurry up, hurry up." ”

Wu Long asked the Qingshou about the situation at that time, and said to Dong Zuchang: "Second son, the villain can't start now, who doesn't know me Wu Long, I was called broken as soon as I appeared, and I couldn't get close to Zhang Yuan at all, so I had to find another time to start." ”

Dong Zu was often angry, yelling and scolding Wu Long for being a gallant mouse.

Another slave of the Dong family ran in and said: "Second son, those people outside are smashing the door with stones, what can I do, there are a lot of people!" ”

Hearing the noisy voices at the front door, as well as the slamming of the door and scolding, Dong Zuchang was shocked and angry, and shouted: "Wu Tuiguan's official has not arrived yet, let people go out from the back door to urge." ”

In Huating, Dong Zuchang has always been rampant and domineering, and he was blocked in the house and slammed the door and scolded, which was really the first time in the world.
