Chapter 313: Anger
"What, Guo Yang's two families were suddenly surrounded and suppressed by officers and soldiers years ago?"
On the twentieth day of the first month, he returned to Niujia Village, and had just cleaned up the small private school, when Lin Sha heard the shocking news from the people of the village who were flocking to greet the New Year.
"What's going on, what banner are the officers and soldiers fighting?"
The smile on his face fell, and his heart suddenly 'chuckled' when he thought of the conflict with the Jin envoy years ago, and thought that it was his own business that affected the Guo and Yang families.
Of course, the imperial court did not make a big deal about this matter, and many members of the Lin clan in Suzhou served in the court, which is why he just returned to Niujia Village after the Lantern Festival, and at the same time several letters have been sent to several scholars and friends in Lin'an City, asking them to help keep an eye on the movements of the Lin'an Mansion.
This is a matter of their own, as long as the officials who still have brains will naturally not find trouble with irrelevant people, why did the Guo and Yang families suffer?
Could it be that Yang Tiexin's cannon battle offended people?
"It is said that it is harboring anti-thieves......"
Li Zheng shook his head and sighed helplessly, with a palpitating look on his face.
"Harbouring thieves?"
Lin Sha was stunned for a moment, and asked in disbelief: "Impossible, Guo Xiaotian and Yang Tiexin are both honest hunters, how can they have anything to do with the thief?" ”
Of course, he muttered in his heart: It can't be some Liangshan remnant, right?
Liangshan is in the boundary of Shandong, what did the Jin people want to do in the Southern Song Dynasty?
"I didn't dare to go out that night......"
The honest and honest villager next to him was a little embarrassed and said: "I shouted and killed again, and I thought there was a military disaster, and when it was quiet on the second day, we carefully went over and took a look, the two families were really miserable, and even the houses were burned......
"What about the man?"
Lin Sha was taken aback. I didn't expect the government to make such a big fuss, and at the same time, a bad premonition surged into my heart.
Of course. For the cautiousness of the villagers, he is not good at saying anything, this is human nature, and ordinary people have this reaction when they encounter this. Only by keeping your own house can you have the mood and spare strength to rescue others!
"Hey......"
Li Zheng let out a long sigh and looked gloomy, shook his head, but refused to say more.
Lin Sha's eyes stared at the rest of the villagers, their faces were gloomy and they bowed their heads silently, and the atmosphere suddenly became very dull and depressing.
……
Sent away the representatives of Li Zhenghe village who came to pay New Year's greetings, and successively accepted a group of students and parents to pay New Year's greetings, and they were busy all day before they had a little free.
After eating dinner in a hurry, Lin Sha couldn't calm down in his heart, so he simply went out and rushed directly to where Guo Yang's family was, but what he saw was a ruined wall, and there was a black scene after the fire burned everywhere.
His brow furrowed slightly, and his heart suddenly became very heavy. He even saw a few dark marks on the ground, which looked out against the color of the surrounding blue-gray soil, and he didn't need to think about it to know that it was because of the blood.
Standing in front of the two dilapidated houses, I was stunned for a long time, and my mood was extremely low for a while, and a complex and incomprehensible emotion swelled up.
To say that his relationship with Guo Xiaotian and Yang Tiexin can only be regarded as ordinary friends, but no matter how ordinary they are, they are also friends!
Recalling the scenes of meeting and intersecting with Guo Yang and Guo Yang years ago, Guo Xiaotian's boldness and honesty, and Yang Tiexin's reckless impulsiveness left a deep impression on him.
Although these two have a somewhat cold relationship with the villagers. But he has great respect for this famous boy, especially after the two sisters-in-law became pregnant one after another, they were more enthusiastic, and from time to time they sent wild game in the mountains to please him.
There are wild things in the mountains that they send from time to time. To be honest, his life in Niujia Village is really good, at least he can eat a meal of meat a day, which is much more comfortable than when he was in Lin Village.
It's a pity that things are wrong, but I haven't seen them for more than a month. The original friend is now a ghost, a bold and honest Guo Xiaotian. Yang Tiexin, who is reckless and impulsive and full of complaints, as well as the honest sister-in-law Li Ping and the delicate sister-in-law who is as delicate as a white lotus. But it will never be seen again.
I don't know how to feel a strong sadness in my heart, lamenting the fragility of life and the cruelty of reality.
Although he and Guo Yang have only been friends for a short time, he thinks that he knows a little bit about them, and the main personality characteristics of these two people are too obvious.
Guo Xiaotian is bold and honest, an authentic and simple villager. Although Yang Tiexin has been complaining that his talent cannot be stretched, and the dignified Yang Sect disciples are down-and-out and so on, it is really impossible to say that they are connected with some anti-thief!
The rebel professional Hu Mingjiao suffered heavy losses in the last years of the Northern Song Dynasty, and it is estimated that he is still nesting in an unknown corner to lick his wounds. As for the White Lotus Sect, which insisted on fighting against the imperial court for hundreds of years, its power in the south was pitifully weak at this time, but it was difficult to set off waves in the Southern Song Dynasty at all.
As for the so-called descendants of Liangshan, does such a guy exist?
Now it has been nearly a hundred years since the opening of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the people have a large number of loyal fans of Yue Wumu, although Yang Zaixing is not small, it is far inferior to Yue Wumu.
If Guo Yang and the two really collude with the anti-thief, when he first sees the two, he will not go to the nearby market to sell wild things on the mountain, and the life is embarrassed like this, and he still has the mind and energy to collude with the anti-thief?
Yes, needless to say, it is estimated that it is another false case of grievances made by the government!
It's just a pity that the villagers were frightened by the movement of the officers and soldiers that night and didn't dare to go out, and they didn't know which official personally went out to arrest the 'anti-thief', otherwise he could have sent a letter to help find out through the good scholars in Lin'an City.
As for asking him to personally go to the neighboring counties and towns to investigate, it is impossible, how can people do such a bad thing without taking precautions?
If he is stupid, isn't it alert to secretly do something to him?
Since people can come once to 'catch the thief', they can naturally come again, and when hundreds of officers and soldiers gather to raise their bows and arrows, he doesn't think he can handle it. Do you really think that people don't kill people?
Standing in front of Guo Yang's dilapidated courtyard gate for a long time, Lin Sha didn't enter the door but just shook his head. When his body was a little stiff and cold, he slowly left with a heavy heart.
For some reason, an inexplicable song suddenly appeared in my mind. But inexplicably familiar songs:
Through the ages
How many unjust souls sighed
Empty and hopeful, infinite world
Clusters of grievances
Weeping bloodflies and insects laughing at the sky
The solitary sail is a white chain
The waning moon rises and a gale blows
Blow it all away
Blow away, blow away
The torrential rain has no bottom
Wade through the rapids to the other side
Strive to clear the clouds and eliminate the fog
Sheji calmed the hearts of the courtiers
There is no truce in the long exorcism
Look at the slanting sun shining on the earth
Turn from the beginning
Weeping bloodflies and insects laughing at the sky
The solitary sail is a white chain
The waning moon rises and a gale blows
Sheji calmed the hearts of the courtiers
There is no truce in the long exorcism
Look at the slanting sun shining on the earth
Turn from the beginning
Turn from the beginning
How similar are these situations?
On the way back to the small private school residence, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the village tavern with the gate closed, and immediately frowned, anger rose in his heart, and without saying a word, he strode over and slammed the door violently.
Bang bang bang!
One after another, a dull sound drifted far away in the dark and dim village, causing a fierce dog barking and roaring, and at the same time, it also attracted the trembling voices of several young and strong villagers to shout: "Who, who is banging on the door there?" ”
"Me, Linsha!"
Lin Sha's face was full of frost and his brows were furrowed, and he stopped tapping on the door and replied in a deep voice.
"Oh. It's Mr. Lin Sha, are you looking for Qu Lingfeng, he's not at home! ”
The villagers breathed a sigh of relief, and then a few footsteps came from far and near, and several people walked over with burning grass handles and said curiously.
"Boss Qu is not at home?"
Lin Sha's eyes flashed, his voice couldn't help but be a little higher, and his heart was even more angry.
"Yes, Boss Qu often goes out to do business, and he is not at home for almost half of the year!"
The villagers approached and hurriedly replied respectfully.
"Wasn't he still there when I left, when did he leave?"
Facing a group of simple villagers, no matter how angry he was, he couldn't get angry. I had to barely hold back my anger and ask in a deep voice.
"Oh, Mr. Lin Sha left two days after Boss Qu left, but he came back to live for a few days during the Chinese New Year, and left again before the tenth day of the new year!"
The villagers didn't dare to ask more when they saw that Lin Sha was in a bad mood. Just answer honestly.
"Oh, that's right, then I'll go back, you guys should rest early, be careful of catching a cold!"
Lin Sha nodded, groaned for a moment, turned around and left, and did not forget to say a word.
……
After cleaning up the small private school. Lin Sha informed the village middle school students that they should not be late for classes on the second day of the second month of February, so he packed up and rushed to Lin'an City.
The Golden Lord had already returned to the Northland with his mission. A group of familiar scholars and literati who ran away a few years ago returned to Lin'an to study and enjoy themselves, and after learning that Lin Sha came back, they were busy posting invitations to eat and drink.
In addition to making friends with a good literati and drinking and talking. He also did not forget to bring his hometown to visit the famous Confucian scholars in the city one by one, hoping to be able to audit and study when they started teaching apprenticeships.
Whether it was optimistic about Lin Sha's talent and future, or to give face to the Lin clan, these wild Confucians readily agreed to Lin Sha's request, and sent a regular schedule for teaching his disciples, and also said that he would let his disciples notify in advance if there were special arrangements.
Lin Sha thanked him one by one, and exchanged some knowledge with the personal transmission and closed disciples of the great Confucians, and in a blink of an eye, ten days had passed, and at the end of the month, Lin Sha said goodbye to his friends in the city and returned to Niujia Village.
At the beginning of February, the second dragon raised its head, and the men, women and children of the entire Niujia Village gathered in the small private school, and a few long bamboo poles inserted in the mud in front of the door were still hung with a few strings of firecrackers, waiting for the auspicious time to come and the small private school officially opened.
"It's an auspicious time, set off firecrackers!"
In the crackling sound of firecrackers, the door of the small private school was opened, and one by one the students happily walked into the courtyard door, and none of the happy villagers noticed that at some point, a tall and tall middle-aged Taoist priest stood behind them......
