The amount of firewood required for thousands of people to eat and drink is not a small amount, Lin Tian saw that there were more than a dozen wheelbarrows behind Master Lu, and the carts were full of firewood, and he thought: This must be taken from someone else.

The soldiers and brothers stepped forward and collected the firewood and distributed it. Lin Tian stopped Lord Lu, took out a silver ticket from his sleeve, and said, "Lord Lu has worked hard, and I have to accept this little meaning." ”

Lord Lu was stopped, stunned, the silver ticket had been stuffed into his hand, he instinctively opened it to see, under the swaying of the torch, the denomination of the silver ticket was actually five hundred taels, he was surprised Ah exclaimed, the hand holding the silver ticket actually trembled, and said: "Big ...... Big...... My lord, this ......"

Lin Tian smiled, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't do this, tell you to accept it, just accept it!" ”

Lord Nalu knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said, "Thank you, thank you, with these five hundred taels, we people in Yucheng will be able to live a peaceful year this year." ”

Lin Tian helped him up, and asked a little strangely, "Master Lu, how do you say this?" ”

"Adults don't know." Lu Youzhi said: "Although our Yucheng is a small city, we have to pay 300,000 taels of taxes every year. ”

300,000 taels, all to each household, about six taels per household, Lin Tian remembered that when he first came to this world, when he didn't have any ability, he used to do an account room, in a prosperous place like Gusu, the monthly salary of the guys in the restaurant is about one tael, this Yucheng County, a poor and remote country, the people are gray-faced, ragged clothes, where can they get six taels?

He realized in an instant that something was wrong, how could the people of Yucheng be able to live peacefully for a year with five hundred taels? These five hundred taels are really a drop in the bucket compared to three hundred thousand taels!

Lin Tianwei laughed and said, "Lord Lu has something to say, right?" ”

Lu Youzhi knew that his trick had been exposed, his face turned pale, and he was about to kneel again, Lin Tianyi hugged him and said, "You are also an official of the imperial court, don't kneel at every turn, go, go to drink with this official, and talk while drinking." ”

Lu Youzhi was pulled by Lin Tian to the central account of the barracks, and there were four people in the camp, Wang Anshi, Su Shi, Shen Kuo, and Qiao Feng. The four of them gathered around a bonfire, and a large copper pot hung from the bonfire, and the broth was simmering in the pot, and the aroma was overflowing.

Lu Youzhi saw that there were all meat and vegetables in the copper pot, beef and mushrooms, and there seemed to be some hard-boiled eggs, and he suddenly shrugged his Adam's apple greedily......

Those colleagues and people who came with Lord Lu were also pulled down by the soldiers to eat and drink.

After the six people drank some wine and ate some meat, the words began, and Lu Youzhi told the matter, the matter was not very suspenseful, but at first sight in the ordinary corruption case, it was roughly the corruption of officials in Shangqiu, and the exploitation of the people in the counties under its jurisdiction by excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and asked Lin Tian, the lord of the Qincha, to call the shots.

Lin Tian didn't care when he heard this, and casually agreed to the matter, they went to Kaifeng, and tomorrow afternoon, they would pass by Shangqiu.

Wang Anshi and the other three were civil officials who drank very little, but after a few glasses, they felt that the wine was surging and went to rest.

After Lu Youzhi drank a few more glasses, he also felt dizzy, and fell down at once, leaving only Lin Tian and Qiao Feng, one of these two people would not get drunk at all, and the other had a huge amount of alcohol, so he changed to a big bowl and drank for a while, Qiao Feng was also too strong to drink, and collapsed.

At this time, the barracks outside had already quieted down, and the soldiers were allowed to drink two sips of wine, but they were not allowed to get drunk, and they had already lost their wine bowls, and after dinner, they cleaned up and stopped, rested when they should rest, and patrolled when they should have patrolled, and everything was in order.

There was a bonfire lit in front of the tents in the barracks, and by this time the bonfires had been extinguished, and the night wind was blowing, and the firewood that had not been burned to ashes turned red for a while.

On the left side of Lin Tian's central tent is the camping place of those corrupt officials, they don't have a tent, so they huddle together one by one in the open air, and they have also fallen asleep at this time, after all, whether physically or mentally, the most tired are them.

Lin Tian was a little stunned, why did he know that he had to do it today?

Just when he lamented the impermanence of life, with a chilly night breeze blowing, those patrolling soldiers suddenly fell down with "plop~" and "ping-pong~".

The strange night wind actually blew from all directions, and in a moment, nearly a thousand soldiers fell.

Lin Tian was shocked, but he didn't panic, and said secretly: It's finally here. He probed the fallen soldier, breathing steadily, apparently only asleep, not in danger of his life.

Breathing a sigh of relief, he floated back and stood on the top of the central tent, his divine sense was spreading, and he saw a group of people approaching calmly in the three directions outside the barracks.

On the left hand is an old man, carrying two swords on his back, black and strong, with a gray face and a lifeless face; In front of the right are five twin brothers with the same appearance, holding a ghost-headed knife in their hands, murderous and unusual; Behind the right is a row of sixteen people, these people are tall, short, fat and thin, dressed in strange clothes, and have all kinds of weapons, but they are obviously first-class masters in terms of momentum.

Their cultivation swept Lin Tian's divine sense, he was already clear in his chest, the corners of his mouth sneered, and after a while, the three groups of people had stopped more than ten zhang away from him, and Lin Tian said to the old man on his left: "Hehe, you are finally here." ”

The old man's dead fish-like eyes looked at Lin Tian, and his throat rattled with a piercing scream, "You are Lin Tian?" It turned out to be a milky doll that hadn't dried up, quack~~~"

Suddenly, his eyes stopped on Lin Tian's waist, and a fine light flashed in the eyes of the dead fish, and he exclaimed: "Heavenly Son Sword? Then he laughed, "After tonight, this ancient divine soldier will be the old man's!" ”

Lin Tian knew that his cultivation was the highest among these people, and he was only a congenital primary, and those five twins were not the best after tomorrow. How can you fight with Lin Tiandou with such strength?

Lin Tian listened to the old man's words, shook his head and sighed, "Your Excellency has lived a long time, but it's a pity that tomorrow's sun, I'm afraid I won't be able to see it, alas~"

As he spoke, he slowly pulled out the sword of the Son of Heaven, with the divine soldier in his hand, and the sword pointed at the five people in front of the right, "Since you dare to come and send you to death, Lin can only do it!" ”

The old man's body shook, the two swords behind his back were unsheathed, his body suddenly jumped, and caught the sword in mid-air, at this moment, the two groups of people in front of the right and behind the right had been deceived not far away in the blink of an eye.

The handleless ghost-headed broadsword, the knife is powerful and domineering, blocking the roads in front of Lin Tian, and the sixteen weapons behind him are also whirring through the air, very powerful, blocking his rear retreat.

This is a dead end, there is no way to dodge, only hard connection, he thought for a moment: these people should live together in normal times, otherwise it is impossible for many people to cooperate so tacitly.

This battle is encountered by the master of the innate primal realm, and if he does not die, he has to retreat. After all, the gap between the innate primordial realm and the acquired peak is not as far away as an insurmountable chasm as imagined.

The difference is that in the congenital primordial realm, the second pulse of Ren Du has been opened, and the operation and recovery of internal force are much faster than the day after tomorrow.
