Sanjia Village, Liaoshan County.

On this day, the village sang and danced.

The villagers walked to the farmland with cheerful steps.

Today, the county magistrate took the county government down and worked with them to carry water and cultivate the fields.

Anyone who has ever planted the fields knows that the fields in the village are all concentrated in the same place, located downstream.

The advantage of being downstream is that it is easy to irrigate the farmland and that water is not available during very dry periods.

But farmland should not be too far downstream, as rain can affect the water level, and crops will die if the water level covers the farmland.

Therefore, there is still a small water source flowing through the bottom of this period, and the whole village is mobilized to pick up the water to the top of the farmland and let it flow down, and the farmland is likely to be able to rescue part of it.

In fact, the part of this large area of farmland closest to the downstream has been planted with green crops, and a small number of people have already planted their fields.

However, compared to all farmland, those fields that are planted are completely negligible, too little and too little.

The topmost position of the farmland.

The villagers of Sanjia Village have already gathered.

It is a large village with more than 3,000 people, and more than 1,000 gathered at the scene.

"Fathers and fellow villagers, this official is the county magistrate of Liaoshan County."

"Today, this official heeds the call of Lord Thorn Shi and resumes farming with you."

"Now, please line up in two lines, take your buckets, and carry water in an orderly manner under the guidance of the officials."

Lin Yang said loudly.

On either side of him stood ten officials.

They crossed their hands on their waists, and they had horsewhips around their waists.

They don't look like they're here to help with farming.

As the words fell, the people began to adjust their positions, and finally lined up in two lines.

In the end, under Lin Yangbo's order, the people of Sanjia Village began to walk downstream in an orderly manner.

On the way, the villagers walked around and chatted and had a good time.

"I just said don't worry, the county government will definitely have a way, you see Alan and their family, they were so busy a few days ago that they didn't see half their lives, and now I'm afraid they want to cry."

"That is, how can the seeds of my own family be as good as the seeds of the government, and now I am still picking up water and farming under the guidance of the county lord, I really don't listen to the words of the wise, and I am at a loss."

"I heard that Lord Thorn Shi forcibly ordered the resumption of farming, otherwise... Ahem......"

The topic quickly shifted.

The villagers began to talk about something else.

They are afraid of officials and dare not talk too much about this aspect.

It didn't take long for the villagers to reach the downstream water source.

Downstream, there are already county officials and others from Liaoshan County waiting for them.

"Hurry up, don't grind!"

The county shouted.

There were also ten officials waiting on either side.

They also had their hands on their hips and horsewhips at their waists.

The villagers didn't think much of it, and followed the village chief to start loading water, and returned in the direction they had been traveling.

At this time, the county officials glanced at the officials, and these officials followed back, staying at a certain location on the back and forth.

In the same way, the prefectural order at the top also had the officials distributed in a certain position on the road, with the officials standing above and below, and the villagers walking in the middle.

"Village chief, why do you feel that they are staring at us and working?"

Finally, some villagers felt that something was wrong.

These servants in front of them surrounded them in the middle.

Each of them had a long horsewhip in his hand and a serious look.

This is not like reworking with them, but like preventing them from being lazy in their work.

"I'll go back to the top and ask the county honor."

The village chief also noticed that something was wrong.

The originally happy team slowly became silent.

They had seen this before, and it was the government watching the prisoners work.

But he and others are obviously ordinary people, planting their own fields, and they have not committed any crimes, do they want to stare at them like this?

After some time, the village chief returned to the top out of breath and poured the water from the bucket into the pit above.

The rest of the people were the same, they were tired and panting, and their backs were already sweating.

"The county... County Zun, what are they doing? ”

The village chief pointed to the official and asked with a sneer.

Lin Yangbo didn't know where to move the stool.

He crossed Erlang's legs and gnawed on melon seeds, and there were already a bunch of melon seed shells on the ground.

At this time, there was only one official left behind Lin Yangbo, and the others went to supervise the work.

"What's wrong with watching you work?"

Lin Yangbo spit out the melon seed shell and asked rhetorically.

"No... Aren't you here to re-cultivate together? ”

The village chief laughed with him.

Half-bent over, he didn't dare to stand up straight.

"Isn't it time to return to farming with you?"

Lin Yangbo asked rhetorically.

The melon seed was sent to his mouth, and the melon seed shell was spit out.

"It's... This ......"

The village chief squeaked and didn't dare to speak.

He wanted to ask, is this also considered a resumption of farming together?

Obviously, he was watching us as he worked.

But looking at Lin Yangbo's appearance, he didn't dare to ask.

"Smack!"

"What are you doing?"

"Delay the project and break your legs!"

Suddenly, a whip went off.

Accompanied by the reprimand of the officials behind Lin Yangbo.

The village chief was taken aback, shivered, and did not dare to linger any longer.

As he returned to the group, the villagers knew what was going on and could no longer be happy.

Their mood became heavy, and their work was not as active as before, and they followed the team numbly.

One, two, three, the water flows downstream from the top, and several farmlands have water.

But the villagers were also tired enough.

"I can't do it anymore, I'll take a break."

Some villagers couldn't stand it anymore, gasped for breath, and walked out of the team to sit down and rest.

Seeing this, the other villagers also prepared to rest with each other.

But at this moment, a long whip struck and slammed it at the villagers who were sitting down.

"Smack!"

The villager who sat down was drawn.

The pain made him scream loudly and bounce on the spot.

The villagers who wanted to rest or were still working all looked at this side.

"Who allowed you to rest?"

"Listen to them all, and you are not allowed to rest!"

"Delay the work of Lord Assassin Shi and break your legs!"

The official scolded.

The whip in his hand was whipped again in the air.

There was another snap, and it shook in the hearts of all the villagers.

"I... I plant my own fields, what's wrong with taking a break? ”

The man who was beaten was not angry.

Filled with anger, he questioned the officer.

"Noise!"

"Dare to question Lord Thornshi's orders?!"

The officer's eyes were cold, and he whipped the man again.

The man's clothes were instantly rotten, and a trail of blood appeared on his body.

"Bastard, I'm fighting with you!"

The man was furious.

Red eyes are about to rush to the officer.

The official snorted coldly, not afraid at all, and threw the long whip in his hand on the ground, the saber on his waist.

As long as the man dares to rush up, then send it with a knife, the other party will be killed, and he deserves it.

But at this time, the man was hugged by the villagers, preventing him from rushing forward to take revenge.

"Don't be impulsive, think about your son, think about your parents."

When the man heard this, the madness in his eyes slowly faded.

He endured his grievances, picked up the bucket and returned to the water carrying team.

From this moment on, the steps of the villagers were heavy.

Lin Yangbo at the top looked at everything and smiled very gloomy.

This official is just following the orders of Lord Assassin.

In addition to Sanjia Village in Liaoshan County, similar incidents are also occurring in Yushe County and Pingcheng County.
