Two days later, Zhao Lin heard good news and bad news.

The good news is that Qian Sanming accepted the money and helped to do it, and after the yamen sent out the news, his brother Zhao Shan would soon be able to put it back.

The family is about to be reunited, and while Zhao Lin is relieved, he also feels unrelieved.

First encountering natural disasters, and then encountering man-made disasters, fate is always controlled by others, which is the sorrow of the weak.

At the end of the day, I have to say thank you.

The bad news is that there are suddenly many new faces in the villages and towns around Baektu Mountain, and they are secretly asking if anyone has entered the mountains in the past few days, and what they have seen.

There are also some strange gossips.

Liu Dazhu from the village went to the market in the morning, and when he came back, he told a strange story at the head of the village.

"Have you heard? The day before yesterday, Peng Qi from Dashe Village went into the mountains to collect medicine, and saw a bare-ass doll wearing a red belly pocket running around under Laoyu Ridge. ”

Peng Qi thought about whose child ran away on such a cold day, and wanted to go over and ask for an understanding, but he didn't expect that the bare-ass doll figure disappeared into the soil in a flash!

"He thought something was wrong, so he dug up the dirt with a shovel, and guess what? There is a large stick mallet (ginseng) with six-pint leaves growing in the ground! ”

The villagers gathered around, and someone asked, "What happened later?" ”

"Peng Qi forgot to tie the red rope, and he dug up half of the ginseng and ran away!" Liu Dazhu said with a look of regret.

"Grass, I forgot such an important thing, I think he is a mallet himself."

The onlookers said with indignant contempt.

"You're nothing, I heard that recently there was a fox in Baitou Mountain who turned into a beautiful woman and specially sucked the yang energy of passers-by." The village elder's son also joined in the chat.

"Really?" His words immediately aroused everyone's interest.

"Really! Several hunters saw that the vixen was dressed in red, and as long as she glanced at her, she would have a serious illness when she went home, and she would not be able to get out of bed for a few days. ”

The son of the village elder spat as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

"Mom, the vixen is so scary, what does it look like? Tell me more about ......"

The more Zhao Lin listened, the more wrong he became, this story was obviously made up by someone.

Most likely, Beard is investigating the disappearance of his men.

Through people's curiosity, spread the word.

So in the past few days, if anyone enters the mountain and sees something, it will slowly surface, which is much more efficient than asking people one by one.

"This bandit leader is not simple!"

Zhao Lin frowned secretly, and couldn't help but think of what Liang Song had said about the Diamond Mountain Leopard.

Zuanshan Leopard, whose real name is Yang Dazhi, was logging in the forest farm in his early years, and inadvertently saved an old man who was seriously injured and was about to freeze to death.

Yang Dazhi was lucky, the old man was a martial arts master, and after he came to life, he saw that he was a martial arts material, so he taught him all his skills.

Yang Dazhi was willing to endure hardships, and in less than three years, he broke through the power realm and entered the qi realm.

Once, because of a trivial matter, he had an argument with the head of the forest farm and beat someone to death.

simply didn't do anything, swept away the goods, pulled up the team, went into the mountains to make a beard, and drilled the leopard.

The leopard is haunted in the mountains all the year round, is extremely familiar with the terrain, and is shrewd and decisive, and the government has failed to pursue it several times, but its power is getting bigger and bigger.

Not only that, but the beard also developed a lot of "peripheral" personnel, who participated in robberies or did some chores during the slack time, and picked up a hoe when the farm was busy and went home to farm.

These people are scattered all over the county, acting as the eyeliner of the beard, which is also one of the reasons why the beard is difficult to extinguish.

provoked such an organization, and Zhao Lin had a deep sense of crisis.

There are no impermeable walls in the world, and beards are so cunning that if they show a little bit of horse's feet, they may be suspected.

But he didn't regret it, and he would do the same thing again.

"How is my brother, is the injury better?"

Zhao Lin came to Baiqiao Village every day to meet with Zhou Paotou and others to exchange news.

He walked into Zhou Paotou's house, didn't see Zhu Dachun, and asked casually.

Liang Song grinned, "Don't worry, Widow Wang is serving well." ”

Zhao Lin smiled and said, "In the past two days, someone has asked you if you entered the mountain the day before yesterday?" ”

Since returning from the hunt, the small group of four people has gradually dominated Zhao Lin in both making decisions and controlling topics.

Zhou Paotou and the others, including Zhao Lin himself, didn't notice this, and only took it for granted.

Liang Song nodded and replied: "Someone asked, there is more than one, and I used the same rhetoric to block back." ”

Zhou Paotou had a worried look on his face, "Why don't we go back secretly and dispose of the corpse again?" I'm afraid that some wild beast will find the smell and drag the carcass out......"

"No!"

Zhao Lin frowned and said: "The beard is not an immortal, he can pinch it, and it is not so easy to find us, so you must not mess with yourself." ”

Liang Song also said: "Respond to all changes with the same, if someone asks, they will say according to the pre-discussion, anyway, we have something not present......

"Alibi." Zhao Lin reminded.

"Yes, alibi!" Liang Song continued.

Zhou Paotou knew that he was speechless, and said humbly: "It's me who wants to fork." There must be beards in every checkpoint in the mountains, and it's good not to go, but if you go, it's tantamount to throwing yourself into the net. ”

Zhao Lin didn't delve any further, and diverted the topic: "By the way, when will Xiong Zhengul and Yu Hao's mane make a move?" ”

That's the main purpose of his visit today.

Hu Zi's behavior made Zhao Lin vigilant, and a strong idea of practicing martial arts was born in his heart.

In the past two days, he has seriously reviewed his experience of fighting with the beard.

If he didn't rely on a sneak attack, he would definitely not be the opponent of the bearded leader Diao Liu, and even the black-faced man who was not strong in martial arts almost slashed him with a knife.

Assuming that the roles are reversed, Zhao Lin is riding on a horse and is attacked by the same means, I am afraid that he will die worse than Diao Liu.

If you have all your strength, but you don't know martial arts, it's like giving an ancient soldier an AK, which can only be used to smash people, and you can't give full play to the true power of the weapon.

Diao Liu is a double force realm, and it is still so difficult to deal with, if he faces a triple force realm, or even a stronger qi realm master, I am afraid that he will only be killed.

Only force can protect oneself and protect one's family.

Thinking about how to destroy evidence and dispel suspicion is essentially a passive way of dealing with problems.

Therefore, as soon as the matter of his brother became known, Zhao Lin was ready to cash out the hunt and practice martial arts as soon as possible.

Hearing Zhao Lin ask about this, Zhou Paotou looked ashamed, "Now the wind is so tight, I don't dare to go out." ”

Zhao Lin thought for a while and said, "It's a good thing to be cautious, you can go to inspect it empty-handed first, and leave the things at home for the time being, so you don't have to worry." ”

"We'll go with you when we trade, don't worry."

Zhou Paotou breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "That's okay, just do what you say." ”

……

At night, Zhao Shan turned over and sat up, looked around the shed, made sure that everyone else was asleep, and took out a porcelain bottle from his arms.

The porcelain vase was given to him by the overseer, saying that the family had cleared up a good relationship for him, and the medicine in the bottle was for him to pretend to be sick.

"The medicine inside is called yellow mustard seeds, half of which is taken internally, and half is applied to the face."

"Tomorrow you will have a high fever, a sallow face, and a lot of blisters, and we will send you out."

Zhao Shan couldn't believe his ears, he knew exactly what was going on in his own family, where did he get the money to dredge up the relationship?

"Really? Who dredged the relationship? ”

"Don't ask, I don't know." The overseer was tight-lipped.

Zhao Shan looked at the bottle in his hand and thought to himself, don't you harm me with poison?

The overseer saw his thoughts at a glance and sneered, "Don't worry, you don't need to be so troublesome." ”

Zhao Shan thought to himself, if he really wanted to harm him, he could kill himself by creating an accident casually, there was no need to go to such great lengths, and it was easy to fall into the trap.

After thinking about it, Zhao Shan finally made up his mind and opened the porcelain vase......
