Chapter 21: The Golden Mountain Temple is attacked
Knock knock!
The silent night, the sound of gongs and drums, is very clear.
At Zhang Yuanwai's house, the little maid looked at the burning house and shouted loudly: Go to the water, go to the water!
The villagers of Jinshan Village were awakened and watched the fire in Zhang Yuanwai's house ignite, although many people got up in their clothes, but the people who were really willing to come to help were only a few after all.
Even many people have a happy look in their eyes.
Villagers, the heart is simple, but it is also simple, if you are good to me, I will be good to you, if you are not good to me, naturally you will not want me to be good to you.
Although Zhang Yuanwai is wealthy, his reputation in Jinshan Village is not very good, if it weren't for his wife, who has more or less managed some neighborly relationships over the years, maybe even these few people who came to help wouldn't have it.
"What's the situation, what about the people inside?", some of the villagers ran faster, looked at the gongs and drums, and asked.
"The lady and the second lady have been rescued, but the master is gone, what can I do ......?"
Zhang Yuanwai, the head of the family, did not escape, which was like losing the backbone.
......
On the small hill, the river and Gaoyang traveled to the halfway point of the mountain, looking back, the dark night, the fire of Zhang Yuanwai's house, clearly visible.
Looking at the fire at Zhang Yuanwai's house, Jiang Liu pursed his lips slightly and didn't say a word, but he was very emotional in his heart.
It has only been half a month since I traveled to this time and space, and I have killed people and set fires, which is simply incredible in a modern legal society.
Has it changed? Or is it the fault of this era?
"Jiang Liu, is it really okay to release that monk named Daoji?", Gao Yang looked at the fire in Zhang Yuanwai's house over there, and asked with some apprehension when he thought that Daoji who had been knocked unconscious had not been killed.
Killing people and setting fires, the monk named Daoji is the only person who knows, and it stands to reason that he should kill people and kill people, right?
"The damned person should be killed, such as Zhang Yuanwai, but that Daoji has no grievances with me, and he shot before, just because he received some favors from Zhang Yuanwai, if he kills people just to kill his mouth, what is the difference between me and Zhang Yuanwai, who wants to kill people when he sees money?"
Shaking his head, Jiang Liu replied seriously, the bottom line of being a man still has to be there.
"However, aren't you afraid that after the Daoji monk wakes up, he will go to the government to denounce you?
"As far as I know, the code of conduct of the so-called evil people is to rather kill mistakes and not let go, while the code of conduct of the so-called decent people is to rather let go and kill well", did not explain too much, Jiang Liu just answered seriously and said his bottom line.
Although he didn't want to be a good person, a good person, if he could, Jiang Liu didn't want to be a villain who disregarded people's lives.
As soon as he said this, after a slight pause, Jiang Liufu said again: "In addition, I believe that Daoji is not a stupid person, and should know how to do it."
When he was beaten by himself, he decisively confessed, which shows that Na Daoji is also a person who understands current affairs.
Since he knows the current affairs and wants to come for no reason, he doesn't want to get into trouble.
"Well, you have a point, this chivalrous girl doesn't want to be a villain!".
Jiang Liu's code of conduct for decent people should be the bottom line of "rather let go, not kill well", Gao Yang also nodded in agreement.
As they spoke, the two turned around and continued walking towards the mountain.
It's just that it's already the second half of the night at this moment, the mountain road is dark, and Gao Yang's feet suddenly slipped, screamed, and fell to the ground.
"Are you okay?", looking at Gao Yangwei's stumbling appearance, Jiang Liu hurriedly squatted down and asked with concern.
"No, I, my feet are a little sore, you, you can carry me", in the dark environment, I couldn't see Gao Yang's expression clearly, and I only heard her low voice.
"Okay", without thinking much about it, Jiang Liu nodded, turned around, and let Gao Yang lie on his back.
Jiang Liu's character level has reached level 6, whether it is strength or endurance, etc., it has surpassed ordinary people a lot, carrying Gao Yang on his back, he doesn't feel very heavy, the mountain road is rugged, but Jiang Liu's feet are very stable.
Gao Yang lay on Jiang Liu's back, his hands around his neck, his cheeks lightly pressed against his back, feeling very reassured.
It's just that feeling Jiang Liu's somewhat stiff movements, in the dark, the corners of Gao Yang's mouth rose slightly: "Hey, have you never carried another woman?"
"Oh, no, I used to cuddle with other girls a lot, ......."
Leaning on Jiang Liu's back, Gao Yang only felt that his words were bluffing.
"What about you, are you often carried by other men?", after a moment of silence, Jiang Liu turned from defense to offense, and asked in a low voice.
"No, except for my father and father who carried me when I was a child, you were the first ......", the hand holding Jiang Liu tightened slightly, and Gao Yang's voice was as thin as a mosquito.
The boys and girls did not speak anymore, and in the silent night, only the sound of the footsteps of the river rubbing against the sand and gravel on the mountain road, the atmosphere became beautiful in this dark night.
Leaning on Jiang Liu's back, the girl felt her heartbeat, which seemed to be getting louder and louder.
"By the way, there are still a few days before the day of the incense ceremony, even if you have an incense scar on the spot, you are not allowed to be a monk know?
"Don't worry, I never thought about being a monk from beginning to end, I still want to marry you and have a few more babies, well, give birth to a football team, so I decided happily."
"Soccer team? what's that?".
......
In the dark night, Jiang Liu carried Gao Yang on his back, walked and chatted, and his feelings warmed up quickly.
It's just that when Jiang Liu came to the gate of Jinshan Temple, a miserable scream sounded, which made Jiang Liu's heart tighten.
The familiar voice is that of Senior Brother Xuankong.
"Something happened!", in the middle of the night, there was a scream in the temple, Gao Yang also understood that something was wrong, jumped directly from Jiang Liu's back, and quietly approached the front.
Looking at Gao Yang's vigorous movements, the corners of Jiang Liu's mouth twitched slightly.
Has the injury on her foot healed? Or have she been lying to herself since the beginning?
However, now is not the time to think so much, Jiang Liu also bowed and walked forward cautiously.
A few torches lit up the small square outside the main hall of Jinshan Temple, and the old Fa Ming presided over the ground, not knowing life and death.
The two senior brothers, Xuan Ming and Xuan Wu, were beaten by others, with a blue nose and swollen face.
Senior Brother Xuankong was the most miserable, covering his shoulder, on the ground, one of his right arms fell in a pool of blood, obviously his arm had been cut off.
In the square, seven or eight men with steel knives looked fierce and vicious, and they were not good people at first glance.
There were a few men among them, all of whom were more or less injured, obviously left over from the battle with Senior Brother Xuankong.
The man at the head, holding a feather fan in his hand and dressed as a scholar, sat on a chair, and it was obvious that the thinnest-looking man was the leader of these thugs.
"No one can kill the people of our Black Bear Village and live freely", the scholar man sitting on the chair shook the feather fan in his hand, looking vassal and elegant.
When the words fell, the feather fan in the scholar's hand made a horizontal gesture and said, "Since the little novice named Jiang Liu was lucky and escaped down the mountain early, then these bald donkeys should be counted as interest and all killed."
"Stop!", regardless of whether he can beat these people or not, seeing that these people in Jinshan Temple are about to be killed, Jiang Liu shouted and jumped out with an ebony stick in his hand.
Looking at the current situation, listening to the guy dressed as a scholar just now, Jiang Liu could guess that these people should be the bandits hired by Zhang Yuanwai to seek revenge.
