Chapter 53: The Cause
"Ah Jun, do you know where to go?" Bai Yi asked him.
"I guess I know, I asked him to draw a picture for me yesterday." Ink Frost replied.
"It's reassuring to have Ah Yun here." Bai Yi patted his ass.
Ink Frost glanced at him.
Bai Yi shrank his head.
"Are you sure there's someone living here?" Ah Shao frowned dissatisfiedly, in front of them was clearly a forest!
Mo Shuangyun walked in first, "Of course you can't enter through the main entrance, now the villagers and the county soldiers are still in a state of confrontation, and we will be shot into a hornet's nest immediately when we go head-on." ”
Fu Xiao also hurriedly followed, one step ahead of him, and took out his nine-section silver whip.
Bai Yi and Ah Shao could only follow behind Mo Shuangyun by half a step on the left and right.
The woods were not big, it was a firewood forest, and soon they walked out.
"What people!" Immediately someone shouted, and two nail rakes were aimed at them.
Their weapons and costumes can be seen to be crop men, but at this time, the expressions on their faces are solemn and very vigilant.
It's just two ordinary peasants, of course Mo Shuangyun and their team won't take it seriously, the other three are already planning to make a move, but Mo Shuangyun raised his hand, and several people tacitly put away their weapons.
"In Xia Mo Shuangyun, I heard about you, I passed by here, and came over to see if Mo could help." Mo Shuangyun reported his family, and at this time, he had to say his whole name and surname, and it would be difficult for ordinary Mo family children to gain their trust.
"Ink Frost ...... The name ......"
"Is it the head of the Mo family?!"
Ink Frost nodded.
One of them brought Xise, and immediately wanted to put down the nail rake, but was stopped by the other person, "You said that you are Mo Shuangyun, what evidence do you have?" ”
"The disciples of the Mo family have never had a special mark, but since they report the name of the Mo family, they will act with the corresponding ability." Ink Frost Yun explained good-naturedly.
Fu Xiao heard this, no wonder no one has ever pretended to be a disciple of the Mo family, it turns out that they all want to do practical things.
The two of them whispered.
Except for Ink Frost Yun, who has no internal force, everyone else silently enters eavesdropping mode.
"Second brother, I think he is the head of the Mo family."
"Even if he is the head of the Mo family, he doesn't have the ability to change nature! He can still build another river! ”
Ah Shao quietly attached himself to Mo Shuangyun's ear and relayed the conversation he heard to him.
Ink Shuangyun frowned when he heard this, could it be that he was ......
"The Mo family master should leave quickly, we haven't been very peaceful here recently, so we won't entertain the Mo family master." They eventually responded.
"It's not a secret, Wu County Commander has already reported the matter here to the imperial court, and the imperial court has sent troops." Mo Shuangyun simply told the truth, "I don't know what caused you to rebel, but I believe that there is a reason for this, my master has told me since I was a child that everything in the world has a corresponding solution, even if it is invincible nature, there must be its inherent laws that can be used." ”
The two hesitated again, "That'...... Come and see Brother Lin with me. ”
"Okay, then trouble the two little brothers to lead the way."
"The Mo family's words are serious, if it was in the past, we would not be so rude to you." The expression of the person who was just called "Second Brother" was already much more respectful at this time.
Their village had already entered a state of martial law, and Mo Shuangyun couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "Your leader is very capable, no wonder he can compete with the county soldiers for so long." ”
The two young men showed disdainful expressions, "The county soldiers under Wu Meng are all a group of soft-footed shrimp, and they are vulnerable, if it weren't for the fact that there are few of us...... Hum. ”
Mo Shuangyun heard the evaluation of the county commander Wu Meng, and showed a thoughtful expression.
"Can the two little brothers tell me the reason why you are against Wu Meng first?"
Hearing that he didn't say anything like "rebellion" or "riot", I couldn't help but have a little more affection for Mo Shuangyun.
"Alas, we were forced to do so."
"Both of us are rough people, let's let him tell you when we see Brother Lin."
"It's fine." Ink Frost Yun is no longer forced.
The four of them were brought to what they called "Brother Lin".
"Brother Lin, this person who claims to be the head of the Ink Frost Yunmo family."
Ink Frost nodded to him.
"My name is Lin Guidong, and the head of the family can call me Lao Lin." Lin Guidong warmly shook hands with Ink Frost Yun, who looked to be in his early forties, with a dark complexion and a sense of strength in the muscles of his arms.
"You don't doubt my identity?" Even Lin Guidong's subordinates didn't believe it, did he believe it so easily?
Lin Guidong laughed, "I've seen the head of the family, but the head of the house probably doesn't have an impression of me now." When I was young, I asked Master Mo Ling for a weapon, and when you were with your master Mo Ling, you had a relationship, I remember that I was entertained by the head of the family at that time, and my name was Mo Rong, right? ”
Bai Yi's face distorted behind Mo Shuangyun, and he gestured to Lin Guidong hard, and he couldn't wait to rush up and cover his mouth directly, why didn't this person open the pot and mention the pot, he mentioned the master and uncle who died of Mo Shuangyun in these few words, and he really admired it.
"Brother Lin has a good memory." Mo Shuangyun said lightly, he didn't really call it as he said, and there was no change in his expression, which made Bai Yi breathe a sigh of relief.
"It's not, the head of the family has really not changed much, although he has grown taller, his appearance is similar to when he was a child, but he is more handsome." Lin Guidong said very happily.
Mo Shuangyun didn't want to say too much to the old people, so she asked straight to the point: "Mo Mou's visit this time, I don't know if it will be beneficial to solve the problems that Brother Lin's village is facing now?" ”
At the mention of this, Lin Guidong's smile immediately fell, "I'll start from the beginning." ”
"Several of our villages have been relying on a tributary of Qishui for irrigation to grow crops, but a few months ago, we found that the amount of water in Qishui was less than in previous years, and we didn't think much about it at the time, thinking that this year's rain was less and less, and the irrigation was barely enough, but we didn't expect that the water in Qishui was getting less and less, and last month, the riverbed flowing through our villages was completely dry."
"We have no choice, the crops will definitely not be planted, so we will go to Wu Meng to see what the county master can do. Unexpectedly, he listened to our story, saying that we were just lazy and didn't want to farm, so he made up this kind of thing to lie to him, asking us to pay taxes on time this year. At that time, I went with a young and vigorous young man in the village, and one brother was so angry that he wanted to scare him, but I didn't expect that Wu Meng was as timid as a mouse, and he was even more greedy for life and afraid of death, so he asked the guards to kill my unarmed brother on the spot. The man is dead, and of course we don't want to swallow our anger and fight with his guards at once......"
Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
