Later, the few remaining families in the village got together, and everyone dared to enter the door together, only to find that the Zhang family had all died tragically at home.

And all the belongings and food of the family were robbed.

He came to the city this time to report to the official. Second, it is also to report a message to the Qin family.

After all, before, he had been helping the Qin family keep an eye on the movements of Zhang Ershui's family.

Hearing Zhang Laosan say that he was going to report to the official, Qin Dahu's eyes flickered.

"The Yamen is now occupied by the mountain—oh no, the general. Where are the officials? Qin Dahu said.

Zhang Laosan was stunned.

After thinking about it, it seems that this is indeed the truth.

But there was a murder in the village, and it was a tragic case, so if you don't report it to the official, you can't say it.

Seeing Zhang Laosan's entangled look, Qin Dahu said again: "Before the general entered the city, there were many people who were killed and robbed in the villages around Lingquan Town. ”

"You don't know who those people are, do you?" Qin Dahu lowered his voice and said to Zhang Laosan again.

The looting of various villages, and even the killing of villagers, were of course the work of the mountain bandits and the displaced people who colluded with the mountain bandits.

Many people have even seen mountain bandits kill people with their own eyes.

Could it be—

Thinking of some possibilities, Zhang Laosan's body trembled.

"Brother Qin, what do you mean-" said with a frightened expression.

Could it be that Zhang Ershui's family had an accident, and it was also done by mountain bandits?

If that's the case, then he still went to the yamen to sue about it, not to hit someone's gun?

Qin Dahu nodded solemnly.

"Who else but those people would be so cruel?"

Seeing that Zhang Laosan's expression was still hesitant, Qin Dahu said again: "In addition, there is something that you may not know yet. ”

"W-what?" Zhang Laosan asked.

"Zhang Ershui is also dead." Qin Dahu said in a deep voice.

Zhang Laosan's eyes widened instantly.

"What?!" The face was full of disbelief.

Qin Dahu hurriedly patted Zhang Laosan on the shoulder.

"Really, something happened last night."

"He said that he went to the gambling house with three mountain bandits to gamble money. After coming out, he was killed along with three mountain bandits. Qin Dahu lowered his voice and said.

Zhang Lao and the three of them were stunned.

Qin Dahu glanced at Zhang Laosan and continued: "Now except for those people themselves, who would dare to kill people in the city?" ”

"Zhang Ershui is friendly with those three mountain bandits, maybe he offended other mountain bandits. That's what was done. ”

"In my opinion, eighty percent of his family members are implicated." Qin Dahu said as he looked at Zhang Laosan.

At the same time, I can't help but admire my ability to make things up.

"Huh? - So, what should I do next?! Zhang Laosan immediately looked at Qin Dahu as if asking for help.

Brother Qin's analysis was very reasonable.

If Zhang Ershui's family is really killed by mountain bandits, he will go to the yamen at this time to cause trouble for the murderer, what if he is retaliated?

But if you don't report to the official-

Hey, on the side of the villagers, he agreed. It's hard to explain when you go back.

Qin Dahu was silent for a moment.

After a while, he looked at Zhang Laosan.

"If I were you, I wouldn't go to the yamen." Opening.

"But-" Zhang Laosan's face immediately became anxious.

"But I promised the villagers." And then he said.

Qin Dahu glanced at Zhang Laosan.

"The mountain bandits occupy the yamen, and they are not in charge of affairs like the previous officials."

"When you go back, you say that you have reported to the official, who will really go to the yamen and ask, is there really such a thing?"

"Anyway, if such a murder happens in another village, I haven't seen those people take care of it."

Zhang Laosan was silent for an instant.

His eyes rolled, and he realized that Qin Dahu was very reasonable.

"That's it!" Then, suddenly, the way of enlightenment.

"That's it, Brother Qin!"

"Oh, fortunately, I came to you before I went to report to the official. Otherwise, brother, I'm afraid I'll cause trouble! ”

"Brother Qin, thank you for coming up with my ideas!" Zhang Laosan excitedly held Qin Dahu's forearm.

Qin Dahu hurriedly asked Zhang Laosan not to be polite.

"Brother, you helped my family a lot before. It's nothing. Qin Dahu replied.

"Besides, you asked me to help you find a job before."

"Now the city is not stable enough, and I am just following a few brothers to collect firewood and sell it."

"If you don't want to earn less, I can talk to them and add you one." Qin Dahu said again.

Zhang Laosan's eyes lit up suddenly.

"No, no! If you can earn some money to make ends meet, don't let your wife and children starve to death! ”

"Thank you, Brother Qin!" As he spoke, tears appeared in Zhang Laosan's eyes, and then he made a gesture to kneel down for Qin Dahu.

Qin Dahu hurriedly helped Zhang Laosan.

"What is this for?! Manly man, where can it be so easy?! Reprimanded.

Zhang Laosan didn't kneel at this time.

The tone of his voice has been dyed with crying.

"I'm thanking Brother Qin. Without you, our family of three would have starved to death. ”

"I borrowed food before, but this time I have been spared calamity. I was given a job. ”

"Brother Qin, you are the great benefactor of our family. Great kindness, I Zhang Laosan will never forget it in my life! Zhang Laosan said loudly.

Qin Dahu's eyes were moved.

"It's all the little things."

"Before, you helped me a lot."

"Okay, let's not talk about that."

"I'll go get you some food to bring home, adults can save some money, but don't starve the child." Qin Dahu said.

"Thank you, Brother Qin! Thank you, Brother Qin! Zhang Laosan hurriedly bowed down and thanked him. The tears were completely unstoppable.

Qin Dahu sighed, and then turned around and walked inside.

Then he took four catties of brown rice and gave it to Zhang Laosan.

"Food is scarce, and my family is not well-off. That's all I can give you. Seeing Zhang Laosan stuffing the cloth bag into his clothes, Qin Dahu said.

gave Zhang Laosan food because this person helped them monitor the Zhang family and did his best.

This time, it was also thanks to him to report the news.

Otherwise, the destruction of the Zhang family will be poked out, and Zhang Ershui's matter will not be so easy.

This third child is a good one. In the future, he is also willing to take care of one or two.

"I can't thank you enough. So much rice, saving a little, enough for our family of three to last for ten days. ”

"When I start work and make money, our family of three will have a way to live."

"Thank you, Brother Qin! Thank you so much! Zhang Laosan thanked him again.

The reason why he has always done his best for the Qin family is actually for the sake of interests and benefits.

Including this rush to report the news.

In fact, I also wanted to take the opportunity to sell it to the Qin family, and then take the opportunity to borrow some grain from the Qin family.

I didn't expect Brother Qin to give it to him directly.

He also agreed to arrange work for him.

Brother Qin, he is really a noble person of their family.

Qin Dahu's face was moved, and he stepped forward and patted Zhang Laosan on the shoulder.

"Alright. Don't say thank you. ”

"Put your things away and be careful when you go out of town." As he spoke, he glanced at the rice bag that Zhang Laosan had stuffed into his clothes.
