Hu Biaozi and Du Heng both died, and this ending was unexpected by everyone. Now that he has clearly explained everything and written it on a blank piece of paper, it is meaningless to seize his body, it has always made the brothers below feel cold, and the second one also reflects the benevolence and righteousness of Cao Kun who has just ascended to the throne, which is extremely helpful to his image and reputation.

That's why he ordered his men to use two broken mats and pull them both to the edge of the cliff, ready to crush them to pieces, and the bones will be gone. It can be regarded as the last explanation for them.

Cao Kun stood on the edge of the cliff and shouted: "If there are those who disobey the order, and if there are those who are sorry for the copycats, they will end up like this, and their bones will be broken and their bones will be broken." I, Cao Kun, treat my brothers well, respect everyone's fathers and fellow villagers, and hope that everyone will be in the same boat, and if Cao Kun has a bowl of rice to eat, there will be a bowl of you to eat. Whoever wants to help the master to develop in my cottage, I, Cao Kun, swear here: Even if it is heaven and earth to arrest the traitor! ”

A group of cottage brothers knelt on the ground, their spirits were flying, their blood was surging, their strong bodies were like a group of heroes in the grass, and they shouted: "Resolutely maintain the cottage!" Maintain Cao Shao's helper! In the same boat! Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

Among this group of brothers, there are also brothers who once followed Biao Zishi and Du Heng, the situation has completely changed, and they have no room to regain the situation. It is also useless to let them know that they are following the wrong master. People are all seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, and they are more afraid than most people of being afraid of affecting him and his family, and they tremble and chant with everyone. As long as he doesn't behave too out of line, I think with Cao Kun's cleverness, I will actually clear these remnants of sin, and I will only need more power from them.

How can I not capsize in the same boat, even if I don't capsize and fall into the water, I will get wet, this is not an afterthought, and it is not something I should think of. Na Jintang and I just watched the two corpses being pushed down from the edge of the cliff mercilessly, and all the brothers next to them shouted: "Kill!" ”

The deafening voice finally came to the time when Cao Kun was in full power, and this young man was full of spirit, perhaps from his bold reforms, and now he can really take on a new look. I look forward to it in my heart, and I look forward to his current affairs for Junjie and Najin Tang to work together to realize their dreams.

After dealing with Hu Biaozi's affairs. We made our way back to the hall because we had a tricky business to take care of right away.

Originally, it was a matter in their cottage, but Cao Kun invited a few respected old people to the ancestral hall and discussed the matter between them. These few highly respected old men didn't have much right to speak, probably they all had a right to know, and they didn't play more remarks at that time.

Cao Kun first put aside an issue: "Tomorrow is a very important opportunity, we must arrest Lehi and use his sacrifice father's spirit in heaven." Do you have any thoughts? I can talk freely, and any estimate in my heart is my own family. ”

The three old men were a little hesitant when they heard Cao Kun's words, because they had not managed the affairs in the cottage for a long time. The three old guys didn't know what it was, Cao Kun looked at the expressions of the three old guys and couldn't help laughing. "Uncles and uncles, don't worry, we'll take care of what happens, don't worry too much about anything."

The three old guys couldn't come up with an idea to decide, but they always agreed with their concern for Cao Kun: "Young helper, you don't want to act on your own, let your subordinates go to this matter, we can't have any twists and turns in the cottage now, we can't afford to experience such fluctuations." You are now the only eldest son left by the old gang leader Cao, and we will not be able to afford anything that happens to you. The whole cottage can't afford it now, so there is Brother Rauna to help us a lot. The three old fellows neatly arched their hands to the brocade hall.

Na Jintang also stood up generously, clasped his hands into fists and replied to the three old guys: "Three uncles and uncles, our Rensheng Society and Shanzhai have always been brothers. Don't worry, my wife and I are not saints. Besides, the old gang leader Cao has raised me since I was a child, and I naturally treat her with respect for a junior, and now the whole situation has also touched our own interests. Tell me what you want us to do, and we're ready to do everything we can to arrest Lehi. ”

"You don't need to do anything, just give your opinions," Cao said, "and we'll take care of the hands-on work." ”

Na Jintang said: "If it's just for revenge, then the meaning is not particularly great, but I know that just as the old gang leader expects from you, you have to revive the entire cottage and lead everyone on a broad road." ”

"I have considered it very carefully," Cao Kun said, "any one of the reasons for applying for the job, must let me personally cut Li Hai, I know that the old man has spent a lot of effort on me, he does not let me shine in front of people, has always let me do things in a low-key manner, is to deal with future emergencies, in this point I must not let him down." ”

"Well," said one of the old fellows, "but you must be aware of the fact that all that you are going to do tomorrow is out of your filial piety. Be aware of the risks you face and don't act rashly. ”

Na Jintang also gave Cao Kun a trace of courage, and said resolutely: "What do you need me to do?" ”

"The young lady is very grateful for dealing with Hu Biaozi, and he is right," Cao Kun said, "They confessed to killing Cao Lao's gang leader, and now we need to dig out the mysterious person behind this, does anyone know the background of Li Hai?" ”

The three old men fell silent, and after a while, one of them said with tears in his eyes, "I have probably heard of Lehi the man, and they are all dead, all dead. ”

In the midst of his sadness, the old man slowly spoke:

In the third year of the Republic of China, a warlord sent his cronies to the chief of the guard to lead people to the port to buy a batch of goods. He also went with him, and at first everyone did not know what it was in the end, and then it was divided into thirty boxes, and thirty people carried them on their shoulders.

Then they gave the goods to our river transport gang to take care of the shipment to another port, which means that they entrusted us with the dart, as long as we can safely deliver it to the other port they designate, they will give us a good return. At that time, Cao Lao's gang leader had just taken office, and he was trying to show his strength, and this batch of goods was commissioned by the warlord, and there was no room for any mistakes and shirks.

For the sake of the warlord for the country and the people, Cao Lao's gang leader still took over this batch of goods, because the warlord would appoint ten soldiers to work together to help transport this batch of goods. In addition, the river transport Cao gang* is prestigious, and it is prestigious in the rivers and lakes, and ordinary people dare not fight our ideas.

For the sake of safety, the old gang leader Cao took safety precautions before receiving this batch of goods, and he himself will personally follow this batch of goods to transport.

Along the way, they did not dare to take the main road, mainly by waterway, day and night, and the destination was the mouth of the Yangtze River wharf on the Sichuan border thousands of miles away. It is not a direct and universal water system, and it is inevitable that it will make some turning stops on land.

Everyone was very cautious, but an accident happened on the way. Because a brother was physically exhausted and accidentally broke the wooden box, the golden gold rolled out of the broken box, and there were fifty pieces of each box, and the number of thirty boxes is self-evident.

The hearts of the people immediately became agitated, and the undercurrents surged. Even under the authority of Cao Lao's gang leader, it is inevitable that everyone has a mind, because this wealth is thinking that no one in this gang has ever seen.

The human heart is the most terrible thing, the first day can be suppressed, the next day, in the case of everyone thinking carefully, there began to be some gangs, everyone this kind of gangs and factions means that there will be cracks, don't when the charge appears, there will inevitably be a series of crises.

The crisis will represent blood, birds die for food, and people die for money. These young and vigorous young people, of course, will lack the idea of gambling with their lives for tomorrow. And this behavior is showing itself more and more obviously.

On the evening of the third day. A brother of the Cao Canal Gang secretly found Cao Lao and persuaded Cao Lao to escape with him with the gold, and he could unknowingly kill the ten people, and the gold was occupied. But Cao Lao refused, and later I learned that this gold was for military expenses, and the idea of fighting it was a capital crime! Whoever dares to fight the idea of a warlord is simply a disaster that leads to the mountains.

This ungrateful, money-eyed copycat brother is Lehi!

That night, gunshots suddenly rang out in the campsite, and without Cao Lao's authorization, Lehi quietly poisoned and killed ten warlords' subordinates without knowing it, and shot them! This has happened irreversibly.

Because of Lehi's movements, and the fact that something huge had happened, Cao Lao ordered me to confiscate all the weapons of my brothers, and only he had a pistol, because I had to be vigilant day and night for the actions of others. The goods are on the way, no matter what happens, getting the goods to the destination as soon as possible may be able to atone for the sin. So it's imperative that there be no changes.

Cao Lao and Lehi are still brothers, and in order to save Lehi's life, he did not announce the news of the death of the ten soldiers, perhaps this is also to let Lehi not have such a panic. But more incredible things happened to him, so he suppressed this matter and announced to the other brothers: The next thing will be done by the cottage brothers alone, and the people who knew about it at the time were the two of them, and me.

Later, a group of us came to the country in need, and it was at this time that we inquired through the villagers and elders: Yuan Shikai was dead, and his empire had collapsed. Well, the warlord who entrusted us was put under house arrest because he was implicated by Yuan Shikai, which made the "Protector Army" under command and leadership begin to exist. Therefore, this unit has been absorbed by other editors, that is to say, it has changed its name, which means that this 10,000 catties of gold has lost its owner and use, and has become ownerless wealth, and if it is sent over, it is that these people will get a piece of ill-gotten gain. Definitely will not be used for the original purpose.

No one expected this outcome, that is, Lehi shot ten soldiers, that is, it was over. Who will judge and pursue this matter again?

The brothers present were aware of this, and a strange emotion quietly spread among the escort team. No one spoke, they were all thinking in their hearts.

But the copycat brothers don't dare to do much, who dares to take the lead in doing this? Of course, no one will be convinced, who will take the lead in this matter. The most important thing is that Cao Lao is the leader of the gang, and the relatives and friends of the copycat brothers in his hands are worth their lives, unless they are busy with this property.

But the human heart is sinister, and under this great wealth, if you don't want to be tempted, you are not human!

Cao Lao knew the abnormality of this situation, and his authority alone may not be able to suppress it, so he gathered everyone that night, and everyone sat together, and Cao Lao said sonorously: "Everyone follow me, keep your wife and children safe, and enjoy endless glory and wealth; If I have a problem, I will investigate it, but I will do the business of the nine clans. Then think about it, whether you want peace and prosperity or want to die in the world. ”

I was the first to say: "I am old and young." In this life, I don't have to worry about food and clothing, I just want my parents to be healthy, my children to be filial, and my family to be safe. I'm not going to fight a warlord, and I don't have the guts. I will never let my family suffer misfortune, nor will I let my ancestors suffer the wrongs of traitors. People live this life, frankly and openly, with a clear conscience, I don't want my relatives to become the warlord's ghost! So I resolutely support Cao Lao's decision, I hope Cao Lao can only give us a bright road, I believe that Cao Lao will not disappoint our brothers, I dare to vouch for the head, I will never dare to be delusional, dare to move this batch of goods, there is no wrong thought! ”

I don't know why, I wanted to be the first to express my position at that time, because I believed in Cao Lao's gang leader. He nodded to me, and under my leadership, regardless of whether everyone was sincere or not, in this situation, in order to avoid suspicion, everyone imitated the statement I had just made.

Of course, I'm more concerned about my own safety.

Cao Lao's words were threatening, most of the cottage brothers were pure farmers, and they were not well-informed in society, especially the various tortures and rules and regulations left over from the Qing Dynasty still affected everyone. If you dare to touch the things in the officialdom, it is simply fatal, and there will be the possibility of being beheaded all over the house. Under the influence of this thought, the stirring emotions slowly calmed down.

But Cao Lao and I were still very nervous, because the two of us knew that if we didn't return in time, there would be problems after a long time, and there would be no way to stop it at that time.

Especially in this kind of place where there is no village in front of the village and no store in the back, this is the area that is most prone to change.
