Chapter 37: Killing Intent

The villagers of Taoyuan Village were taken into the quarry because of Lu Jianping, which made Lu Jianping very uneasy. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Lu Jianping's guilt was beyond words.

After Deacon Liu saw Lu Jianping's expression, his heart, which was originally full of fear, gradually settled down.

Lu Jianping cares about the people in Taoyuan Village, which shows that Lu Jianping is not a villain who kills people without blinking, is bloodthirsty and cruel, and exterminates humanity.

After hesitating for a moment, Deacon Liu looked at Lu Jianping and said cautiously:

In fact, in addition to the villagers of Taoyuan Village, there are many people who have been harmed by the Li family. Deacon Liu looked in the direction where the Zhenbo Mansion was located, and his face became a little gloomy, "The rich people arrested by Lord Zhenbo have not been freed, and they are still imprisoned in the Zhenbo Mansion, including my three sons and five grandsons. ”

When Deacon Liu said this, he suddenly stopped talking.

Obviously, he hoped that Lu Jianping could save these innocent people, but he didn't know how to speak.

Going against the Li family is definitely killing yourself, and begging Lu Jianping to rescue these people is equivalent to asking Lu Jianping to send them to death.

Deacon Liu's face had a struggling look, and he didn't know whether to ask Lu Jianping for help.

"Why do the people of the Li family continue to imprison the men of the rich family? My identity has been exposed, and everyone knows that the men of the rich family have nothing to do with me, so what excuse do they use to prevent these people from leaving?"

This news surprised Lu Jianping.

In the name of finding the murderer, Zhenbo arrested all the men from the rich family into Zhenbo's mansion.

After Lu Jianping's identity was exposed, their charges were gone, and they should be freed.

The men of the rich family have nothing to do with Lu Jianping, and no matter how much the Li family hates Lu Jianping, they should not be angry with these people.

Lu Jianping was very curious about the inside story.

"The people of the Li family ordered the men of the rich family to come up with a large sum of money to prove their innocence. If the money is not enough, they will continue to be held in Zhenbo Mansion. Deacon Liu sighed lightly, and then shook his head helplessly. "Through this method, the Li family extorted a lot of money, and many rich families went bankrupt because of this incident. ”

The so-called proof of innocence is only a pretext for plundering wealth.

In fact, this excuse, as comical as it sounds, is often used by monks.

Zhenbo and the three monks have used this excuse to grab money.

After listening to Deacon Liu's words, Lu Jianping suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's just a detention, not a killing intimidation like Zhenbo. No one has died because of this, which is really good news for me!"

Compared with Zhenbo, the Li family's methods are more gentle.

Every three days, Uncle Zhen kills ten innocent people to force the rich family to ransom them as soon as possible.

The Li family was not in a hurry, so they did not kill at will.

In Lu Jianping's view, money is just something outside the body, and living is the most important thing.

As long as the person is not dead, everything will be easy to do, and Lu Jianping can make up for all this in the future.

Lu Jianping breathed a sigh of relief, while Deacon Liu was the opposite.

"Although no one died, the consequences were more terrible than the death of a few people. Almost all of the gold, silver, and copper coins in Zixu Town fell into the hands of the Li family and were transported to Chenxu Town. Nowadays, the people of our Zixu Town, all the poor jingles, we have no money to buy things, so we can only barter. In order to exchange for food, it has become a trend to sell children and daughters, and if this problem is not solved, people are afraid that they will really have to change their children and eat!"

Deacon Liu's tone was very solemn, without the slightest hint of falsification.

Lu Jianping originally maintained an optimistic attitude, but after listening to Deacon Liu's words, his brows only furrowed.

Farmers who cultivate the land have surplus grain at home, and even if all the money is plundered, they can still rely on the grain storage and continue to survive.

The townspeople of Kezixu Town are different, they are used to buying food with money, and many of them have no food at all.

Once the gold, silver, and copper coins were plundered by the Li family, then the townspeople would not be able to survive.

"During this time, did the Li family send monks to Zixu Town, and did any other loose cultivators come to Zixu Town to look for my traces?"

Lu Jianping wanted to do something, but he was worried about the trap.

With Lu Jianping's strength, dealing with Li Shendu alone, even if he can't kill the other party, he can escape.

But if you are facing more monks, or stronger monks, the consequences are not necessarily the same.

For the sake of prudence, Lu Jianping asked Deacon Liu about the reality of Zixu Town.

"Everyone thinks that you won't return to Zixu Town, and besides, with Master Li Shendu guarding it, you don't need other people's help at all. Therefore, the monks in Zixu Town are only Master Li Shendu. ”

There are twelve towns in Xuyue Valley, and the strength of Zixu Town ranks in the middle of the stream.

This also means that in six or seven of these towns, the strength of the monks is very weak, and it is not enough to deal with Lu Jianping at all.

According to common sense, Lu Jianping will hide in a weak town. In this case, even if you are discovered, you can easily escape.

The weak monks did not dare to provoke Lu Jianping at all, and the number of monks who were stronger than Lu Jianping was too small.

The powerful monks would rather disperse and garrison various towns and wait for Lu Jianping to throw himself into the net, rather than come to Zixu Town to compete with Li Shendu.

"It's great that Li Shen is alone!" Lu Jianping patted Deacon Liu's shoulder and instructed with a smile, "Deacon Liu, early tomorrow morning, you will go to Zhenbo's Mansion to report and tell Li Shendu the news of my return to Zixu Town." If you tell him that I will stay where Li Xingyun was attacked, he will definitely believe it!"

The place where Li Xingyun was attacked was the transportation hub of Chenxu Town and Zixu.

If Li Shendu wanted to send someone to contact Chenxu Town, then the messenger would definitely pass through this place.

Lu Jianping is guarding this place, not only can he snatch the letters, learn about all the conspiracies, but also escape at any time.

The credibility of this statement is extremely high, and Li Shendu has no reason to doubt it at all.

"Obey, Lord Lu Jianping!" Deacon Liu didn't think about it, so he accepted Lu Jianping's order, and after hesitating for a while, Deacon Liu continued, "I heard that Lord Li Shendu has bought a lot of eyeliner, and it is very likely that there will be traitors among the villagers of Taoyuan Village. Please also ask Lord Lu Jianping to be careful, tonight, don't continue to look for acquaintances, so as not to be exposed. ”

Deacon Liu was worried that Lu Jianping had little life experience and believed in the betrayer, so he reminded him.

Lu Jianping chuckled and nodded, and then quickly left here.
