For the first time, Xiaowen appeared in front of the whole clan to preside over the most solemn memorial ceremony, and tremblingly announced the first ritual of "waxing", and firecrackers exploded in the courtyard. Bai Jiaxuan walked to the front of the square table and stood still in a solemn atmosphere, picked up the yellow coal head made of burning fire paper from the edge of the table, and blew solemnly, and a weak yellow flame appeared on the coal head. He slowly stretched out his hand and lit the red wood wax filled with clear oil, shining with the candlelight of the newly established divine throne of the ancestors and ancestors. He lit three purple sticks of coarse incense on the wax and inserted them into the incense burner, and then kowtowed three times. Hyo-moon watched as his father got up from the altar and walked to the side of the square table, never wiping the two lines of tears hanging from his cheeks. One by one, the clansmen walked up to the altar, lit a branch of purple incense and inserted it into the incense burner, and then knelt down. The incense in the censer gradually thickened. After the youngest generation had just handed over sixteen and had just obtained the qualification to bow to the ancestors, Xiaowen stood on the altar in a panic, holding the manuscript of the township covenant in his hand and reciting it to the crowd. Bai Jiaxuan stood upright like a rafter on the side of the square table in front of everyone, following his son Xiaowen's reading and reciting, mixing his deep and dignified voice into the chorus of everyone. Xiaowen's voice is loud and dignified, and his demeanor is dignified, which naturally reminds people of Heiwa and his brothers who once wrecklessly wreaked havoc here. The provisions of the township covenant also make everyone relate to everything that has happened here, and the atmosphere in the ancestral hall is heavy and suffocating. Lu San finally couldn't bear the burden in his heart, bumped into the crowd, and knelt down next to Xiaowen with a plop: "I'm doing evil-" Crying three times and bumping his head on the brick floor. Xiaowen stopped reciting but didn't know what to do, and glanced at his father. Bai Jiaxuan walked over, bent down and pulled Lu San: "Third brother, no one blames you!" Shikazo thumped his head and chest in agony, his face and chest covered in blood, and he broke his forehead as he hit his head on the brick floor. The crowd hurriedly picked up the ashes from the censer, threw them on the wound on his forehead, stopped the bleeding, and then helped him home. Hyo-moon glanced at his father again for advice. Bai Jiaxuan said calmly: "Continue to read." ”

Although Lu San was in pain, he was not particularly embarrassed. Almost no one knows the fact that Lu San categorically kicked Heiwa out of the house as early as when he brought back a daughter-in-law of unknown origin, and Lu San cannot be blamed for all of Heiwa's actions; Lu San's sincere repentance of breaking his forehead was also understood and sympathized by everyone. Lu Zilin, who is standing among the clansmen in the ancestral hall, is a character who is both painful and embarrassing. According to his seniority and status, Lu Zilin stood in the center of the first row in front of the sacrificial table, and stood face to face with Xiaowen, who read the township covenant. Lu Zilin still stood stiffly after burning incense and bowing, never staring at Xiaowen's face, but staring at an illusory place that didn't exist at anything. His eyes, covered by long eyelashes, were half-squinted, and no one could see his eyes. His outwardly calm and somewhat indifferent face concealed the confidence that had completely collapsed inside, and he was terrified. All the men standing in the main hall and courtyard of the ancestral hall in Bailu Village, Lu Zilin believes that only he can fully and accurately understand Bai Jiaxuan's true intention to rebuild the ancestral hall, he knows Bai Jiaxuan too well, only this person can refuse to go down to the theater to watch the monkey play directed by Tian Fuxian, and close the door to repair the township covenant. Bai Jiaxuan is such a person. He came to the ancestral hall to participate in the memorial service, and from the moment he walked out of the courtyard, he felt embarrassed and began to squint his eyes in the deep nest.

For most of the long months from last year's lunar month to this time, Lu Zilin has lived a bitter life that cannot be described. When his son Lu Zhaopeng pushed Tian Fuxian and his ten township covenants to the theater in Bailu Village, and asked Jin Shushou to expose the inside story of the expropriation of Ding Yin one by one, he felt that it was not Jin Shushou or Heiwa, but his son Zhaopeng was urinating on his face. It was at that moment that he suddenly remembered the fists that Yue Weishan and Zhao Peng had clenched together and raised into the air; It was at that moment that he burst out with a sentence in his heart: I only now understand what it means to **! Lu Zilin suddenly broke away from the member of the peasant association who was holding him, pounced on the guillotine on the corner of the theater, and shouted "You have killed Lao Tzu" and fell down. He was pulled up and stood in place again, and at that time, the audience was shouting to take Tian Fuxian to open the door in public, and Zhaopeng seemed to have an argument with Heiwa. After he returned home that day, he immediately dismissed Liu Mou'er, a long-term worker. He heard that the agricultural cooperatives were going to confiscate the land in the next step, and he became more and more lazy to take care of the fields. He was only forced to pull his livestock to the village's waterlogged pond to drink water during the lunch break, and brought back two loads of water by the way. The old father, Lu Taiheng, couldn't say powerful words to comfort him, so he just laughed bitterly and said, "What do you mean to be ashamed of your ancestors?" This is called shame on the ancestors! Shame the ancestors so much that they bared their teeth in the yin!"

After Tian Fuxian returned to his original place, those who followed the black baby to make a farmer's cooperative's all-day price were as elated as the New Year's holiday, and suddenly the red vines that were beaten by frost became black and wilted overnight; Those who had been wiped out at the hands of Heiwa and his revolutionary brethren were suddenly rejuvenated and as excited as if they were celebrating their sixtieth birthday; Only Lu Zilin was still in the dry well of the catastrophe, and even Tian Fuxian's grace could not shine on his cold heart. On the day Tian Fuxian returned to the original, Lu Zilin ran to Bailucang to meet his superiors, and he thought about the first sentence of the meeting with Mr. Tian on the way, "You can go back to our plain!" Then the two of them cried three times. But completely to Lu Zilin's surprise, Tian Zongxiang smacked the cigarette at the corner of his mouth and only owed a nod, just out of courtesy and a few words of greeting, he waved his finger to give him a seat, and then turned his head to talk to the other people who came before him, and almost didn't turn his ruddy face around, Lu Zilin's heart began to feel remorseful. Two days later, Tian Fuxian convened a meeting of the township appointments of the various security centers, and nine of the ten township appointments were attended by Dudu, and without informing him, he completely confirmed the premonition when he met Tian Fuxian. Lu Zilin then heard that Tian Fuxian invited Bai Jiaxuan to go out of the mountain to be the first security station, and he originally wanted to go to sit with Tian Fuxian again, so he silently canceled this idea. Lu Zilin kicked off one end and wiped it off the other - neither boat stepped on it. First, his son rectified him, and now the Bailu District Branch of the Kuomintang no longer wants him to be a member, and he can't even make the township covenant of the first security center. Lu Zilin was discouraged and even resented Tian Fuxian. In the extremely depressed night, I can only go to Mr. Leng's pharmacy to vent my anger. Others see his jokes, but his old in-laws don't. Mr. Leng always sincerely urged him to hold the cup and persuaded him to take a step back. Mr. Leng said, "What do you have to do when you are the township?" It's not appropriate for Jiaxuan to call it! If only you could mix three points of Jiaxuan's temperament. Lu Zilin explained: "I must be the township covenant to do it!" If you had asked me to be a person, but now it's not a big deal, and if you don't want me to be now, you're suspicious of me, and it's a big deal!" Mr. Leng still said coldly: "Even if he says that you are a **mile!" Are you not clear in your mind? I am not afraid to eat watermelon if I have no cold disease in my stomach. I said that if you can mix with the temperament of Jiaxuan, that's what it means. ”

Lu Zilin accepted Mr. Leng's persuasion and stayed at home for only three days, and the three-point Jiaxuan temperament that Mr. Leng mixed with him ran out. After Tian Fuxian rectified the meeting of the head of the agricultural cooperative on the theater floor of Bailu Village, Lu Zilin could no longer sit still, and ran into Bailu Cang to find his past boss and vented: "Mr. Tian, you treat me like this, brother, I can't figure it out." Brother has been working with you for many years, don't you know your brother's temperament? There's a ** in my family, that's not up to me. Zhaopeng pushed you to the theater, and he didn't spare me! He treats me as your gang, and you treat me as his gang of suspicions, brother, I am now Zhu Bajie, looking in the mirror inside and out, I am not a human being......" Tian Fuxian was stunned for a moment at first, and then interrupted Lu Zilin's words: "Brother, since you have said it to this point, I will also make it clear that there is such a big ** in your family, don't say that it has turned Bailuyuan upside down, and the entire Zishui County and even the whole province have made him restless!" You are his father, you probably don't know, Zhaopeng is a member of the provincial party committee, and he is also the deputy minister of the provincial agricultural cooperative, you are his father, how can you not be suspicious of you?" Lu Zilin said angrily: "I don't care what he is, I'm me." I was laughed at by everyone! I can't live! You told Secretary Yue to simply kill me, so that I would not suffer a day of foreign ......crimes," Tian Fuxian interrupted him again: "Brother, you are talking nonsense!" I've told Secretary Yue no less than eight times about your business! I patted Secretary Yue's chest in person and recommended you, saying that Zilin studied and worked with me in the same hall, and I knew how deep the eye sockets were and how long the eyelashes were, and I didn't even have a trace of **. Secretary Yue was relieved in the end, and said to take a step and take a look. I don't care if you don't live in your heart, you probably don't know how much I spit on you?" When Lu Zilin heard this, he actually hugged his head with both hands and cried: "I couldn't have imagined that a living person would live to this point......

Lu Zilin stood in front of the sacrificial table and squinted his eyes to kill time, none of the articles of the township covenant read by Xiaowen could arouse his interest, what has become of the world, and he still reads these old antiques! It's like a person who harms colic: Chinese medicine refers to cholera with severe abdominal pain without vomiting or diarrhea. If you want to hold your breath, you can only remember to feed brown sugar water! But he couldn't help but participate. Just when Lu Zilin was standing uncomfortably absent-mindedly, a militia member walked straight into the ancestral hall and patted him on the shoulder from behind: "Mr. Tian invites you." ”

The word "please" made Lu Zilin's empty heart jump suddenly. Lu Zilin walked into the small gathering room in Bailucang, Tian Fuxian stood up from the chief and stretched out his arm to shake hands with him, and immediately solemnly announced: "Comrade Lu Zilin continues to serve as the township covenant of the No. 1 Security Center in Bencang. In the applause led by Tian Fuxian, Lu Zilin bowed deeply to Tian Fuxian, and then bowed to the other nine villagers. The two black lacquer square tables were full of wine and food, and Lu Zilin sat down a little cramped. Tian Fuxian said: "Today's table is invited by Mr. He. As soon as I returned to the original, Mr. He was about to wash away the dust of the lowly position, and I said that our Kuomintang should not set a precedent for eating and inviting wind in accordance with the party rules. Today's overall situation is initially decided thanks to the cooperation of all of you, and on the occasion of the reinstatement of the Zilin brothers, I accept Mr. He's heart, and thank you for offering Buddha with flowers. He Yaozu stroked his snow-white beard and stood up: "It's enough for me to live to this age, it's enough." Heiwa and Boss He wanted to kill me, and I didn't even blink. I only have one thing in my heart, let Heiwa He, the boss of the pole, the dead dog Lai Wa, shout five and six pinching red and green on our plain, I lie under the ground and my breath is not smooth, I say that the living person is gone! Fuxian is back and now it's peaceful, and I'm dead and close my eyes!" Lu Zilin stood up: "Thank you for your care, especially Tian Zongxiang's magnanimity, I will be invited by me tomorrow." Immediately, a few villagers laughed and said: "Even if you eat every day, it won't be your turn, and in a month, it will be your turn to ......" Tian Fuxian interrupted and said: "Everyone, eat and drink well and listen to me, the overall situation has been decided, but you still can't relax." All the people who participate in the peasant cooperatives, whether they are poor or rich, men and women, old or young, must ask him to say something! Harden the bow, tighten the strings, bite the teeth to death, and not one can be loosened! I want him to taste the spicy spicy one by one. If any of them are still secretly active or will not change their minds, send him to me, and these members of mine will teach him to be obedient. Again, be sure to pay attention to the traces of those big and small leaders who have run away and hid......" Tian Fuxian turned his head and said to Lu Zilin, who was sitting next to him: "You have not arrived in office before, and there is not much movement in the villages under the jurisdiction of the First Security Office, and now that you take office, you will catch up, and now it is up to you." Tian Fuxian was telling the truth. Bailu Village's pivotal position in the original made it easy for him not to change the township contract of the first security station, and for all considerations, he still saved Lu Zilin, and only he could deal with Bai Jiaxuan.

After a day of preparation, Lu Zilin held a meeting in Bailu Village the next day, and borrowed eight regiments from Bailu Cang to strengthen his prestige, and Tian Fuxian personally participated in it to show his supervision. Those who had been the leaders of the peasant cooperatives in Bailu Village were escorted to the theater, and the ten poles planted by Tian Fuxian when he held the first meeting here have not yet been pulled out, and they are being put to use. The big and small leaders of the Bailu Village Agricultural Cooperative Branch, and even a few people who were not even the leaders of the Bangda Dehuan were escorted to the stage and were preparing to rise to the top of the pole in the same way. These people had already seen the tragic scene of Boss He being trampled to death, and as soon as they saw the pole, they were paralyzed, so they knelt down in front of Lu Zilin and begged for mercy. Lu Zilin didn't look at them, and only followed the established procedures. Five or six men had already been pushed under the wooden poles, and leather ropes with hooks fell from the air, hooking the wrists that were tied behind their shoulders. At this time, Bai Jiaxuan came to the stage. Lu Zilin was busy giving Bai Jiaxuan a seat, he had asked him to preside over the assembly with him in the morning, Bai Jiaxuan thanked him, and it was the sentence "The right to be bitten by a dog". Bai Jiaxuan walked straight to Tian Fuxian's head and bowed, then turned around and knelt down facing the audience: "I have made amends to Mr. Tian and Luxiang on their behalf." It is my fault that they are in trouble, and I deserve it as the patriarch for not disciplining my people well. Please put them down and hang me to the pole!" The chaotic audience suddenly fell silent. Tian Fuxian sat behind the table on the stage and lost his mind for a while, and Bai Jiaxuan's surprising behavior overwhelmed him. Lu Zilin was stunned for a moment before walking up to Bai Jiaxuan, pulling his arm and saying, "Jiaxuan, what are you doing?" People fight you and swim you, but you come and kneel for them?" Bai Jiaxuan knelt upright and unshakable: "If you don't let go, I won't get up!" Lu Zilin let go of the hand he was pulling and ran to Tian Fuxian, the two discussed in a low voice for a while, and Tian Fuxian walked to the edge of the stage with a gentlemanly demeanor: "Jiaxuan, hurry up." Tian Fuxian said to the audience again, "For Jiaxuan's sake, spare them." Bai Jiaxuan stood up and bowed to Tian Fuxian again. Tian Fuxian said: "Bai Xing'er and the black baby can't be released. You will not allow these two to enter the ancestral hall. Bai Jiaxuan stepped back from the stage without saying anything and walked out of the crowd. Lu Zilin had already waved his hand impatiently, Bai Xing'er and Tian Xiao'e rose into the air, and many people shouted: "Kill him!" Kill that a**!" Tian Xiao'e screamed and couldn't scream anymore, her cloak hung in the air, and a small shoe embroidered with a small flower on her pointed tip fell off...... Bai Xing'er was not tortured, but only gently lowered from the top of the pole, and held his hands high on the wooden pole that was tied to the top of his head. Tian Fuxian said: "Township party members, look at his two hands!" People crowded to Bai Xing'er, and the fingers and palms of the two duck webbed together were ugly, and they were carefully watched by curious people like monsters. Bai Xing'er usually hides his hand very tightly, and no one is allowed to watch on the farm, and there is almost no chance of seeing his fingers. Tian Fuxian sneered and said: "People with such hands still want to succeed in the plain?!" Bai Xing'er closed her eyes in humiliation, and her sallow slender face was sweating. A group member stood under the wooden pole with a long knife like a curved sickle, raised his arm proudly as if performing a stunt, and cut off the thin skin like a duck webbed between Bai Xing'er's index and middle fingers with the tip of the knife. Bai Xing'er screamed one after another, like the screams of a pig who was pressed to the ground by a pig cutter, cut its foreskin and squeezed out two pink testicles. Some of the timid and soft-hearted people stepped back, and some of the bold and hard-hearted people squeezed up to continue watching. The blade and handle of Tuan Ding's knife had been stained red with blood, and blood dripped from the back palm of his grip on the handle of the knife to the ground, but he still raised the knife unhurriedly, carefully using the tip of the knife to the thin skin between the two fingers, until the two palms were done. Bai Xing'er was already hoarse, but he opened his mouth frequently but couldn't hear a sound.

"Okay, okay! You can do it, Zilin! You're the best monkey trick today!" Tian Fuxian said, "Just play it like this." Just like this, a village and a village are playing together. The emperor and his uncle are here, and they will not let go when they kneel down and plead!" Lu Zilin said: "I'm afraid that there will be no second Bai Jiaxuan in Bailu Plain. You saw it with your own eyes today, and this is what Jiaxuan is. Tian Fuxian said: "Jiaxuan loves to repair the ancestral hall by him, and he reads the hometown covenant by him, and it is this time to kneel down and plead for others." You do your business and leave him alone. You have forgotten Heiwa, he ran away and is not dead! Heiwa is in your area and in your village, you should always keep an eye out for him!" Lu Zilin said: "I'm afraid that he has ten guts, and he doesn't dare to go back to the original." Tian Fuxian said: "As long as I am on this plain, forgive him and dare not come back." It's not a matter of whether he comes back or not, we have to work hard to find his traces and play this monkey well!"
