Chapter Eighty-Seven: Killing Good and Risking Merit!
The house facing the street has a shop in front and three houses in the back, a well, and next to the well is a pot, a stove, a cutting board, with neatly cut vegetable leaves, and half a piece of pork, in which the rice has been smouldered.
"Have the three benefactors eaten, haven't you eaten, let's eat together later!" the old man beckoned Lin Xi and the three of them to sit down in the middle house, and then asked the little girl to make tea.
"Our husband and wife have already eaten, but Hong Yi, if you haven't eaten yet, you can stay and eat together. Lin Xi smiled.
"I also went out after dinner, and the list is over today, so I have some time, come here to see you, can you tell us, why are you living on the streets?" Hong Yi looked at the old man in front of him and asked.
"Eun wants to ask us where we come from?" the old man's gaze suddenly sharpened, "I don't know if Eun wants to listen to the truth, or do you want to listen to lies?"
"Hehe, old man, you're quite interesting, but you don't need to ask, you can probably guess a little, it's nothing more than that Tian Fu is too heavy, you can't live in your hometown, you live in a different place, maybe you have committed some crimes in your hometown, and you can't go back, I don't know if I'm right?"
Lin Xi looked at the old man with a hint of incredulity on his face with a faint smile, the so-called chivalrous use of force to break the ban, and most of the people who have been displaced with some kung fu under their hands have lawsuits, and Wang Chong, the old housekeeper in his family, is in a similar situation.
"The benefactor really has good eyesight, and he can see our origin at a glance, we are from Shenjiagou in Zhongzhou, my name is Shen Tianyang, this is my son Shen Tiezhu, Xiao Mu was rescued by us on the road, her surname is Yuwen.
In the early years of our Shenjiagou were rented from the field of the Dachan Temple, the rent was not heavy, but later the Dachan Temple was suppressed, although the field belonged to us, but the tax became heavier year by year, plus the flood in the past few years, the tax could not be paid, and the government was going to collect the field, we were angry, injured a few officials, escaped from the desert, and fell all the way here. “
The old man told the story and told his own experience, but after Hong Yi listened, he shook his head, and after the two talked for a while, the old man understood that they Shenjiagou were characterized by the imperial court as a rebel, and the entire people who remained there in Shenjiagou were slaughtered and killed by the generals in exchange for the reward of the imperial court.
"Damn, those officials, for the sake of their black yarn hats, even did such things as slaughtering villages, it is really a great crime!"
Hearing this, Lin Ruo turned his head and glanced at Lin Xi, meaning that Lin Xi understood very well that the two of them had killed the life of a planet without a lot of casual shots, so in this way, the crime was extremely evil and could not describe them.
Lin Xi shook his head indifferently, the war in the cultivation world is not the same as the killing of good and good in the mortal world, one is the enemy of life and death, and the other is the bloody slaughter for the sake of getting closer to his official position, this nature is not the same.
"This matter involves the crown prince of the dynasty, your identity, I'm afraid you won't be able to stay in Yujing, this matter is really too much to do. Hong Yi frowned.
"This little old man also knows. Shen Tianyang said: "Since the benefactor has the identity of a lifter, he can shelter us, if he becomes a servant, the future will be stable, but we are afraid that this matter will still be involved, but I am afraid that the benefactor will be involved in a lot of trouble in the future." ”
"This ......" Hong Yi hesitated, this matter is too big, and that little girl, who was chased and killed by the people of Yunmeng Kingdom, is definitely not a factor of peace, he is still just a lifter, and it is a little difficult to shelter these three people.
"It seems that Brother Hong is a little embarrassed, so let's do it, the three of you will enter my Lin Mansion, although my Lin Mansion is not big, but as a guard of the gatekeeper courtyard, no one dares to provoke it, although it is not a big rich and noble, but it can also make you settle down, I don't know what the three of you want?" Lin Xi asked casually, just as he was also going to recruit some family members for the Lin Mansion, everything was handled by the old housekeeper alone, but it was not too suitable.
"This, Lin Gongzi, the three of us are all black households, will it affect you because of this?"
"It's okay, I'll arrange for you to be under my door, enter a household registration, and change your name, it's not difficult. Lin Xi shook his head, and then said lightly, "I know that you want to sue the emperor to avenge the dead villagers, don't worry about this in advance, in the future, this son of Hong Yi will seek justice for you, Hong Yi, you say yes?"
Hong Yi nodded, "The things of the world are nothing more than justice, if the people of my generation who study have not encountered this matter, it will be fine, but since they have encountered it, they must seek justice for them, otherwise I have read the book of sages in vain all these years?"
"Very good", Lin Xi smiled and patted Hong Yi's shoulder, "I hope you can always maintain this kind of heroic righteousness, with this heroic qi, it is much easier to survive the thunder tribulation and become a ghost immortal." ”
"Brother Lin is really a great power in the cultivation world, I wonder if you can give me some advice?" Hong Yi immediately lifted his spirits when he heard this, this was the first time Lin Xi had said something about cultivation in front of him.
"Haha, this matter is not in a hurry, I will take them back first, and handle the household registration for them tomorrow, if you have something, you can come to the Lin Mansion to find me." ”
After saying goodbye to Hong Yi, Lin Xi and his wife left here with the three old men.
When he returned to the Lin Mansion, he found that the old housekeeper had woken up, and when he saw Lin Xi coming back, he hurriedly stepped forward to welcome him.
"Young Master, are they?"
"These three people will be the guards of my Lin Mansion in the future, butler, you can tell them if you have something in the future. Lin Xi briefly introduced the identities of the three of them, and then took out a jade pendant and handed it to him, "Tomorrow, you take this jade pendant to the yamen of the household department and handle the household registration for the three of them." ”
"Young master, it's not easy to handle household registration, and the origin of these three people is mysterious, I'm afraid it's not easy to do. ”
"It's okay, you can just take the jade pendant with you, there will be no trouble!" Lin Xi waved his hand, signaling that he didn't have to worry.
The old butler nodded, he knew his young master's methods, so he no longer worried, and immediately led Shen Tianyang and the three of them to the place where they were staying.
......
On the second day, when it was dawn, the old butler had arranged the work of the new guards, and was about to take them to dinner, when suddenly there was a knock at the door.
"Who's coming?" the old butler stepped forward, and Shen Tianyang and the others followed closely behind him, keeping their hearts vigilant.
"I'm Hong Yi from Wu Wenhou, and I'm here to visit Lin Xi!" a gentle voice came from outside the door.
"Open the door and let him in. At this time, Lin Xi walked out of the inner house and nodded to the old housekeeper.
