It was quiet, everyone stood there like a wooden man, only Liu Ermazi picked up the body of his beloved wife alone, howling and crying.

"What to do? What should I do? ”

After the angry killing, the group of coolies at the lowest point returned to their composure, and the frenzy just now was all transformed into fear at this moment, and the long-standing fear of the government and the upper class masters made them overwhelmed, and there was a muffled cry from the numb crowd, which made people's mood even lower again.

Liu Er Mazi stood up, clenched his fists and shook them around one by one and said:

"Liu someone once again thanks to all the fathers and fellow villagers for their rescue, although I Liu Er Mazi is not a hero, but I also know that one person does things one person, the sky is falling, I am alone, after a while I will surrender, everything here is done by me, and it has nothing to do with the big guy. It's just that this stupid boy in my family has to ask you to take care of it for me. ”

His mother-in-law died tragically on the spot, and he was about to surrender himself, of course, he was dead and lifeless, and Liu Er Mazi couldn't help but arrange it for his son.

"Brother Liu, are you a fool to be an official? Or do you really think that you have the courage to be unstoppable, there are dozens of officers and soldiers lying here! You say you did it alone, who believes it! If you go, you're just caught in the net, and the big guy still can't get out of it! ”

A loud voice came from the crowd.

"yes, that's a good point!"

"There's nothing wrong with it, everyone is reasonable, Liu Tou, this matter needs to be reconsidered!"

A group of coolies and salt workers began to talk about it.

"Otherwise, let's escape! Let the officers and soldiers not find us, don't you do it! A young man suggested.

"How is this possible? Where can we escape? Someone immediately retorted.

"Besides, we are all dragging families here, helping the old and the young one by one, and how many families still have surplus dry food, can everyone escape there? Although the six countries of Jinxi are very large, there are checkpoints at various intersections between Merlot County and other counties to prevent salt workers like us from escaping. ”

"So what do you say we should do? Can we only wait here to die? ”

Someone said indignantly.

"That's right, we can't run, we can't run, can we just wait here and let the officers and soldiers come to arrest us and kill us?"

"People are alive, and there is no way, but I don't know if everyone dares to do it?" The voice that was the first to refute Liu Ermazi sounded again.

"This big brother, if you have something to say, please speak out, don't be like a mother-in-law and mother-in-law, since there is a way to live, then please tell the big guy, now we all have no idea!"

Liu Er Mazi clenched his fists and whispered to the man who spoke.

A middle-aged man jumped out of the crowd, dressed almost the same as an ordinary salt worker, but much stronger than the coolies of the salt workers, and the complexion of this strong man's face was also a little smoother, and it was obvious that he had not been here for long.

"It's him!"

"How could it be him?"

"Liang Yonghao, isn't he the salt worker who just came? What can he do? ”

There was a low voice of discussion in the crowd again, just now this person was very brave in the process of killing officers and soldiers, more than five officers and soldiers died in his hands, and when he saw Liang Yonghao's murderous appearance, he knew that he was a practitioner.

"Ladies and gentlemen, fathers and fellow villagers!" Liang Yonghao said loudly: "Although my Lao Liang has not been here for a long time, less than two months, everything here has made me unbearable, usually not enough to eat and dress warmly, but after this natural disaster, the government did not even ask, not only let us fend for ourselves, but also asked us to go hungry to dry salt and earn money for them." If this continues, everyone will either starve to death or die of exhaustion, and if they don't save their lives, they will also affect their own families. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, then what should you do now?" Someone in the crowd said impatiently.

"What to do? What to do? I don't think you can think of it without me, right? Liang Yonghao laughed and said loudly: "Since the government treats us as inappropriate, then we will turn against the damn, and we will do it for ourselves in the future!" ”

As soon as Liang Yonghao's words came out, there was a dead silence all around, and rebellion was a big crime to kill the head and lose the head, and even punish the nine clans.

"Liang Yonghao, do you want to send everyone to death?" A thin salt worker said tremblingly.

Liang Yonghao sneered, pointed to Mei Liangxin and a cadre of officials lying on the ground, and said in a cold voice:

"Guys, what do you think we're doing now? If we kill these dog officials, we are already a rebellion, is it possible that everyone still thinks that the government will really hang the mirror? Now we just have to do it, and we have to do it if we don't do it. Otherwise, let's go home and wash our necks and wait for the government to come and kill your head! I, Liang Yonghao, am not a person to be slaughtered. ”

After speaking, Liang Yonghao reached out and picked up a spear from the ground, raised it high, and shouted loudly:

"If we are against it now, maybe there is still a way to live, if not, it is a dead end, and the big guy will look at it by himself!"

Liu Er Mazi lowered his head and pondered for a moment, walked to Liang Yonghao's side, picked up a spear, and roared angrily: "People are dead, my mother-in-law was killed, and Lao Tzu also decided to rebel, it's a big deal that he will still be a good man after eighteen years!" ”

Liu Ermazi's skinny son followed, raising a spear much longer than him in both hands.

There was a commotion in the crowd, and gradually, more and more people came out, gathered in front of the two, and said in a gossipy:

"Folks, let's go, let's go to the salt field together now and kill the remaining dog officials."

Liang Yonghao shouted, and thousands of young men roared and rushed towards the official yamen of the Wankou salt farm.

In less than an hour, the officials and officials stationed there were swept away, and all of them were cut into pulp meat by the salt workers.

At night, the official office of the former Wankou salt farm, that is, where Mei Liangxin worked, several leaders of salt workers and coolies gathered together, and now that everyone has entered the government, they have embarked on a road of no return, but what to do in the future, everyone still does not know where to go.

There are tens of thousands of people in the Wankou Salt Works, and there are nearly 10,000 sturdy salt workers alone, but now this group of people only has a pitiful few hundred spears and sabers in their hands, where is the way out? Everyone looked at Liang Yonghao in unison.

"Big brothers, old and young masters!".

Liang Yonghao stood up and said in a deep voice:

"We can't run if we want to, not to mention that there is no food, even the family of the big guy, and they can't run with us, we can only stay here, fight to the death with the officers and soldiers, as long as we hold on, I believe we will be able to have a way to live."
