Chapter Eighty-Six: Abandoning Evil and Turning to Good

"Big brother, you eat slowly, don't be nervous. We still have sweet potatoes buried there, enough for the big brother to eat. ”

Li Qiusheng will never forget what the dog said when he handed the roasted sweet potatoes to him. The dog's childish innocence, his eyes as clear as water, and his chubby round face appeared in his mind like a shadow.

That was the scene when Li Qiusheng encountered a dog when he first escaped from the blue and white embroidery building, and a group of little children followed him like a good boy who sang a big opera, pestering him. Until Li Qiusheng set up a clever plan to exchange "roasted sweet potatoes" for "big drama" in order to solve a full meal. At that time, the crispy aroma of roasted sweet potatoes has remained in his memory after so many years, lingering and indelible.

Now that he was asked by the golden knife ke, Li Qiusheng's heart bred the scene of a dog again, and he replied without thinking. "Lord Di Zhai, if you are in a hurry to solve the dilemma of grain and grass, the five grains are the best." After saying that, he paused in the middle and looked at the people in the village.

"Whole grains are the best?" The golden knife man asked this sentence rhetorically, and looked at Li Qiusheng suspiciously. The people in the village also seemed to be at a loss, looking at Li Qiusheng in the middle with a pair of suspicious eyes, as if these Sannong things were very far away from their past.

Li Qiusheng saw that everyone was puzzled, and explained. "Among the whole grains, sweet potatoes are the easiest to grow and have the shortest harvest time. It is also less suitable for large-scale planting. In addition to taro, coarse grains such as corn and potatoes are simple and easy to grow, but they still need to be sown in season. So I think it's the middle of summer, and it's a good idea to plant sweet potatoes and corn, and the rest of the season should be planted accordingly. After finishing speaking, he hurriedly turned to the golden knife man on the side and said. Master Di Zhai, do you think I'm saying something inappropriate? ”

Who knew that the golden knife man slapped the Eight Immortals table beside him and laughed. "Little hero, little hero, let me say what is good about you. So many men and women in our village have come out of the fields and mulberry farmers, and they have lived in Anle Village for so long, but they don't know these wonderful things about grains and grains. It seems that man is really something that cannot be looked down upon, that is, the wisdom that grows regardless of age and age. "After that, because he was too excited to talk for a while, he almost had to worship Li Qiusheng in public.

Li Qiusheng hurriedly stopped, "Master Di Zhai, don't be so polite. I can be protected by the people of Anle Village, and I thank you a lot. What I just said is just what I usually see, and it is not some profound mystery that I can't stand your worship like this. ”

"Little hero, you're too humble. You deserve such respect from the people in our village. The golden knife man continued Li Qiusheng's words, then looked around, and said to everyone in the village with a bow.

"As the owner of the village, I always have to plan this urgent food for the people in the village. But over the years, probably the people of Anle Village have gone through the kind of life of horse theft and robbery, and it seems difficult for you to change your perspective and be a good citizen for a while, and it will be difficult to change. In this way, tomorrow starts with me, except for the left-behind personnel at the east and west checkpoints, all men and women who can farm must go to the village to claim a piece of fertile soil, cultivate and plant, and harvest mulberry hemp. ”

Everyone present was in an uproar again, and they all looked at Li Qiusheng among them. It seems that the big boss of Anle Village now is not the master of Di Zhai, but the disdainful boy in front of him who has changed their way of life.

Looking for a gap, Li Qiusheng glanced at Di Jinyan, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. It's like saying, 'How's it going?' I've got a good idea in my stomach, right? I saw you worried about me for a while last night, so you can put your mind at ease now. Third Miss, if I'm right, don't think about guessing my mind all day long. If you guess, it's a vain guess, you can't touch it. ’

Looking at the appearance of a ruffian on the stage, Di Jinyan cast a lookful glance at Li Qiusheng offstage, and the look of disdain in her heart poured on her face. Then he was bored and withdrawn, and poured himself a drink on the table with his cheeks in his hands.

The two of them, one on the stage and the other off the stage, competed from a distance like this, which seemed to make the old man Dong next to him always inexplicable, and his eyes rolled white. He looked at Di Jinyan next to him for a while, and then looked sideways at Li Qiusheng on the platform, and found that there were no good secrets. pinched his chin, scratched his ears, and finally didn't know why, so he had to stand up and drink his own stuffy wine alone.

Everything seemed to be decided, and the master of Di Zhai took Li Qiusheng's hand and returned to the table of the eight immortals. The four of them mechanically raised their glasses and touched the wine again, and then officially entered the sequence of the celebration banquet.

The staggering of Anle Village soon lasted until midnight, and the chickens were already crowing again, and the sky was about to dawn.

The morning light of the cottage did not come slowly, and the sunrise in the east sent the bright sunlight to Gulian Mountain. Like a shining golden light, it shrouded Anle Village in a flash, colorful and red.

The meeting hall of Anle Village was already full of leaders in the village, and everyone listened quietly to what the golden knife man said.

"Brothers, what the little hero said yesterday was not false, and it is also the best shortcut to solve the current predicament of our Anle Village. Although it takes time to grow whole grains, crops such as sweet potatoes, corn, and soybeans are the shortest and have a quick harvest. The most important thing is that we can avoid going out to rob and mass killing, and avoid unnecessary human injuries and losses. Avoid everyone here and the old and young in the village, so that you don't know under what circumstances your wife will be separated and your family will be ruined. ”

Everyone was suspicious for a while, you look at me, I look at you, and they were puzzled and began to discuss in private again. Among them, I heard the golden knife man say loudly from the seat, "So the owner of this village has decided that from now on, our Anle Village will mainly focus on farming and mulberry hemp, supplemented by robbery and plunder, and must not be used when it is necessary in a critical situation." If you still have the purpose and reason for not wanting or accepting my decision, you can leave on your own within three days, and the people of Anle Village will not stop or retain you. If you do not abandon those who are in Anle Village within three days, the owner of this village will determine that you are willing and accept the fact that we are planting mulberry farmers in Anle Village. ”

The second master, Master Lin, stood up and said, "Master Di Zhai, aren't you forcing our brothers to change careers?" If this is the case, the brothers will not do the business of robbery, murder, and excavation, but I am afraid that before you can grow the grain, the brothers will starve to death. Anyway, it is difficult to escape the death penalty, it is better to do a good deed, and it is not in vain to be a thief in the green forest for so many years. ”

"Second master, you are wrong. Our Anle Village has not fallen into such a difficult situation, but it does not mean that it will not suffer like this in the future. Therefore, it is up to man to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen. We have to plan first and then act like the little hero said, and we can't act recklessly. The golden swordman said this for a moment, and then glanced at everyone before sitting back on the tiger skin seat in the middle.

Someone asked again, "Master Di Zhai, although the little hero's idea is good, we also have the good heart to eliminate evil from good, but I am afraid that the government will not let us go of these evil deeds of robbing money and goods over the years, right?" When the officers and soldiers come to attack, how can we justify ourselves. ”

"That's a good question, that's exactly what I want to say." The golden swordman replied loudly, then looked around again, and then arched his hand. "Now that you all know this, as the little hero said yesterday. We are all people in the same boat, and if we gather, we live, and if we separate, we die. Our vote to rob grain in Gushan Town has already shaken the imperial court, coupled with the siege of the defeated officers and soldiers last night, it will definitely cause the imperial court to be extremely angry, and it will inevitably lead to the encirclement and suppression of the army. Then, the catastrophe of Anle Village is not far away. Therefore, the owner of this village feels that the proposal of the little hero is very suitable for the current predicament faced by Anle Village. ”

"Well, listen to the Lord of Di Zhai and the little hero, let's lead the land to the land." Someone in the hall suddenly echoed after the golden swordman's words landed.

Then a group of high-spirited leaders made a noise, and took the lead and walked to the fertile land outside the village.

In an instant, the meeting hall of Anle Village became deserted, and there was no trace of people.

Li Qiusheng and his son and the old man Dong also slowly crossed out of the hall, and Di Jinyan suddenly took a few steps back and said to Li Qiusheng with appreciation. "Li Mutou, you really have two hits. If you go on like this, I'm afraid that the people in Anle Village only know that there is you and don't know that there is my father, the owner of the village. Congratulations, I was so surprised. As she spoke, her face was flushed and cowardly, like a big girl who had been married.

'Phew', Li Qiusheng looked at me coldly and said, "Thief mother-in-law, you won't fall in love with me again, so cowardly to confuse me." After finishing speaking, he walked away, and suddenly dropped another sentence and said. Don't bother, I'm Pan An. No matter how delicate you are, we won't bird you. ”

Di Jinyan was so angry that she stomped her feet, silently gestured with two slender hands behind her back, and ate and grabbed Bai Dao with angry eyes. "Dead wood, you, you, Hugh is alone. At that time, Miss Hou Ben will ask you to compensate me for my strength, so that you can't survive and die. ”

Outside the valley, on a fertile soil, there is already a scene in full swing. The men and women of Anle Village are swaying the industrious Han water, busy cultivating and planting. Look at an eight- or nine-year-old child not far away, who is also waving his immature little hands, busily chopping grass and turning thatch, a shovel, a shovel, turning the ground and cutting the soil.

The golden swordman stood on a high place and watched all this in front of him, and was so excited that he suddenly turned around and said to everyone. "It's still Li Qiusheng's ghost idea, and a word can change their thinking."

"What the old man never dreamed of was that Anle Village had been circling around the edge of the bandits and green forests for so many years, and now he was actually moved by your words, and he abandoned evil and followed good."

"The old man is really happy, the hero is a young man, and the next life is the most terrifying."
