Chapter 1106: I had no choice but to do evil

Chapter 1106 had no choice but to do evil

There is a small village called Wujiatun forty-three miles away from Zhangzhou City, and the reason why this village is named such a name is not because there are more people with the surname Wu in the village, but because the family with the most status in the village is surnamed Wu. Zhangzhou is the seat of the province of Shujing Road, and it is also one of the important towns in the north.

Wujiatun, which is so close to Zhangzhou, once had a housekeeper in the Shoufu of Sipin County.

Even so, in the eyes of the people of Wujiatun, the largest house in the village is rich and noble. A few years ago, the housekeeper did not leave after returning from Yunyang County, and later people learned that Yunyang County was broken by the rebels, and the county guard had already run away, and the housekeeper took advantage of the chaos to roll up a lot of gold and silver treasures in the county guard's house, so he didn't dare to stay in Yunyang County anymore, and ran back home directly.

Every morning, the housekeeper would walk around the village in a clean robe, always in black shoes and white socks, as if he were inspecting his own private property.

However, despite this, the housekeeper's reputation in the village is very good. No matter what this person did outside, he was extremely proud of the villagers in the village. If the family is short of money for the wedding or funeral, and asks him to borrow it, basically they can borrow some.

Therefore, he also became the head of the village.

Of course, since the war in the Central Plains, the officials of the county government and the county government will not ask about such a small village. This place is close to Yishui but has not suffered any damage, and the people in the village are living in peace and security.

No, this housekeeper is Li Zheng of Wujiatun, called Wu Shou.

Early yesterday morning, a group of merchants came from the south, and most of those who dared to go to business in this environment this year were unable to live at home. You must know that although the vicinity of Zhangzhou is quite peaceful, it is inevitable that you will still be robbed by strongmen when you walk on the mountain path. And despite the troubled times, the status of agriculture and industry in the hearts of the world has not changed. Merchants are considered to be the lowest social status, and their descendants are not even qualified to serve in the army.

These merchants all carried weapons and came to Wujiatun to ask for water to drink, and the people in the village were reluctant to receive them, but Wu Shou welcomed them very warmly. Later, the people in the village asked why, and Wu Shou smiled and said that everyone lived in the village, and almost no one had left thirty miles away, just like a toad squatting in a well, and he didn't know what had happened in time.

And these traders are very well-informed and wide-ranging, and they always hear and see a lot of things. Besides, these people carry private salt. Wu Shou has seen the world, and he hardly needs to look carefully or ask tentatively, and he knows what these people are carrying.

But whoever dares to sell illicit salt, who is not a brave man?

If you offend these people, you may be lit by them at night.

According to those people, a while ago, the Black Flag Army Wang Ye Fang Xie fought a big victory more than 300 miles to the south, and wiped out more than 200,000 wolf riders of the Mengyuan Empire in the west in one go, and then took advantage of the situation to pursue, and destroyed the most brave and fierce Black Mountain Army of more than 200,000 in one go. Two consecutive victories to destroy the thief 500,000!

You must know that Fang Xie only has 100,000 horses around him.

This is the greatest victory of the Han Chinese and the steppe people since ancient times. After all, Wu Shou had mixed up in the official face, and he knew how powerful the Mengyuan people were. If you really want to mention the last great victory against the Mengyuan people, you have to go back to the time when Emperor Taizu of the Great Sui Dynasty more than 200 years ago.

Don't forget, Emperor Tianyou ordered the westward expedition, and 700,000 elites were buried in the west of Wolf Milk Mountain in the past few years.

Time has passed, and the fiasco that people still occasionally mention when chatting now is erased by Fang Xie and the Black Flag Army with such a big victory. When people mention it again in the future, they will not only sigh about the big defeat that year, but also mention the big victory on the bank of the Yishui River today.

"Master Wu, walk the bend."

A passer-by greeted Wu Shou with a smile.

"Well, it's okay to wander around, my legs and feet are getting more and more inflexible, and it's no good to hold back in the house all day, so it's better to take a few more steps. Didn't Lang Zhong say that if you walk 10,000 steps a day, you will live for at least ten more years. I live a steady and stable life now, and I naturally want to live for ten or twenty more years. ”

"You can't bear the wealth of your family."

The man passing by joked, and then asked: "By the way, Wu Ye, I heard that those merchants who came from yesterday said a lot of things, King Wu really won a big victory in the south?" ”

"Hmm!"

Wu Shou nodded vigorously: "Big victory!" ”

"Also"

He lowered his voice and said, "I also heard those people mention that King Wu seems to have accepted the challenge of a Jianghu guest named Liu Yanque, saying that he wanted to fight him to the death on the bank of Yishui. I really don't know where this Liu Yanque came from, but he dared to challenge the Martial King to the Martial King, which is benevolence and righteousness, and he actually accepted it. ”

"What is this Liu Yanque?"

The man asked.

Wu Shoudao: "I heard that it came from the extremely bitter cold land in the north, and most of it is an uninformed thing. Those people said that this Liu Yanque was of medium stature and wore a leather jacket."

When Wu Shou said this, his eyes suddenly widened.

There was a man from the entrance of the village, of medium stature, wearing a leather jacket

"Do you know who I am?"

The man in the leather jacket looked at Wu Shou and asked, without waiting for Wu Shou to answer, he pointed to his nose and said loudly: "My name is Liu Yanque, and I am a big man who is preparing to settle the war with the leader of the Black Flag Army, have you heard of it?" ”

If someone else asked like this, Wu Shou would definitely scold him stupidly.

But the person who asked this sentence looks really Liu Yanque.

It is rumored that Liu Yanque always wears a leather jacket, and it seems that he always feels so cold. He was a man who looked to be thirty or forty years old, not very tall, not very burly, and there was nothing outstanding about it, the most outstanding thing was that there was a mole on the left ear of his face, which was quite large.

And this person is the same as the rumored Liu Yanque.

"I don't know."

Wu Shou thought about it carefully, but decided to pretend to be stupid. Although he didn't think that such a person had the qualifications to challenge King Wu, it was said that this guy was in the limelight in Chang'an City and defeated many sect masters. In other words, at least he is a real cultivator. Even for the lowest-level cultivators, Wu Shou didn't want to be offended. At this time, he was no longer the steward of the county guard's mansion, and even a beginner cultivator could easily kill him.

"Don't be afraid"

Liu Yanque didn't look as fierce as rumored, he patted Wu Shou's shoulder and said seriously: "You don't know how to practice, I won't kill you." ”

"Thank you, thank you"

Wu Shou nodded in panic, looking frightened.

"But it seems that you are a person of high status in this village, and your family must be rich. So I want you to go back now and ask your family to prepare a table of food and drinks for me. Although there are no fresh vegetables at this time, but here is adjacent to Yishui, presumably river fresh is still very easy to obtain, okay? ”

"Yes!"

Wu Shou nodded hurriedly and turned around to leave.

"Got wine?"

Liu Yanque asked.

Wu Shou hurriedly agreed: "There is wine!" ”

"Okay, you go and prepare the meal first, and I'll go back to your house myself in a while."

Wu Shouduo didn't dare to stay for a moment, and left quickly. He didn't even dare to look back, lest the rumored ferocious guy be in trouble again. It is precisely because Wu Shou has seen the world that he knows that people who are evil may not be born with a face of evil. For example, the county guard he served back then, on the surface, he looked like Sven Wen, and he was also dignified when he was peaceful and prosperous, but when the world was in chaos, this guy immediately began to search for people's fat and people's ointment.

How many people were forced to death by that guy, otherwise the civil unrest would not have been the first to storm the county guard. Although the county guard received the news early and fled, Wu Shou knew that the guy hadn't even escaped for thirty miles, so he was surrounded by those red-eyed people and smashed into pulp with stones.

This is also the reason why Wu Shou did not flee with the county guard in the first place.

About an hour later, Wu Shou's family gathered a table of food, and waited for a while not to see that Liu Yanque coming, Wu Shou was afraid that offending that person would cause a big disaster to the family, so although he was afraid, he decided to go out to find it. If you can't find it, it's the best.

When he went out, he noticed that something was wrong, but when he was in a complicated mood, he didn't think about anything wrong. Until he walked to the entrance of the village where he met Liu Yanque, he suddenly understood why he felt that something was wrong.

The village is deserted.

In an instant, a thought popped through his head. In an instant, the muscles in his whole body tensed. For a moment, he felt his heart almost jump out of his throat. In an instant, the clothes on his body were wet with cold sweat.

Wu Shou froze for a moment, stiffening there, unable to even move his footsteps anymore.

There was not a single person in the village who met it.

There seems to be only one possibility.

And this possibility scared Wu Shou almost out of his mind.

"Don't be scared like this, the people in this village are not dead, but only a small part of them are dead."

The voice appeared behind Wu Shou, and Liu Yanque, who was wearing a leather jacket, appeared, with a very handsome bird of prey standing on his shoulder, and when Wu Shou turned around, he looked like a machine, so stiff. He knew what this bird of prey was called, but he had never seen it with his own eyes. There is a picture album of mountains and seas, and this kind of thing is called Haidongqing.

"Wherever I go, there will be some Jianghu people from the Central Plains chasing me, thinking that they can defeat me, so as long as I stay somewhere, I always have to clean up some of these flies first, otherwise the meal will be unreliable. If I killed someone, according to the rules of the mountain, I was to be buried, and I didn't want to do it myself, so I asked some villagers to help bury the body. Someone doesn't want to, and they become one of the buried corpses. ”

Liu Yanque said lightly: "Generally speaking, if a family kills one, the rest of the people are willing to help me dig a pit and bury the body." So sometimes I don't bother to kill but ask if I want to, generally speaking, I kill one first, and the rest are naturally willing. ”

"Why?"

Wu Shou asked in a hoarse voice, he seemed to feel a fishy sweetness in his throat.

"It's simple."

Liu Yanque seemed to be in a good mood, so she patiently explained to Wu Shou: "You know that there are two ways for a person to become famous. The first is to be a good person. But being a good person is not something that can be famous for a while, generally speaking, people don't say until they are old, oh, this person has done good deeds all his life, and he is really a good person. The second method is much faster, and that is to be a wicked person, in general, as long as you kill enough people, and soon his name will spread all over the world. ”

Liu Yanque pointed to his nose: "I am a person who is very eager to make the world famous, so I have to do evil." ”
