Chapter 17 Qixia Mountain Lujiazhuang Eight King Kongs
The news of Chen Yuanwai's recruitment for talents had already spread in the afternoon of the same day, and the entire Fushui County was a sensation, and it also directly confirmed the evil affairs of the Chen Mansion that were circulating in the market.
It was also hearsay before, and the people who lived in a few streets near Fuller Place said that they had noses and eyes, but for people living in other parts of the city, it was just a rumor, after all, the sows in the pen who came down the mountain to find the sows in the pen could be falsely rumored to be wild boars.
At present, the news is solid, there are many people who eat melons and watch the excitement, and they flock to it for a while, and the place where they run is naturally the entrance of the vegetable market, surrounded by three percent inside and three percent outside, and stretched their necks to look at the list, and there are also literate people around, reading aloud to everyone.
“...... Knowing the folks in Fushui County, Chen has always been kind to others, helping the county government, helping the people, building bridges and paving roads, and being kind and charitable, but recently the family suddenly suffered misfortune, and the servants and maids died one after another, as if there were ghosts and ghosts, disturbing my family. ”
The man's voice fell, and there was an uproar all around.
Five hundred taels is not an ordinary amount for ordinary people, ordinary people's homes spend a year, but three or four taels, these five hundred are enough for ordinary people's families for more than a hundred years.
"Get out of the way—"
Lu Pan squeezed through the crowd, came back from the front after listening to the notice, and wiped the sweat stains on his face: "Tut..... five hundred taels, enough for more than 30 households in our village to spend several good years." ”
Lu Qing nodded in agreement.
"Yes, if you have these five hundred taels, what kind of lawsuit will you have with the people of Beicun, you can just give them the crops in the field. ”
Among the other five people, some people were also worried, and said carefully: "But I heard that several people died, and the people from the yamen also went before, we all saw it, it seems that it is not a gray back, if it is really a ghost asking for life, we are not sending hundreds of catties of meat to the ghost for nothing." ”
"But it's a pity not to take this reward....."
With a reward of five hundred taels of silver, who can not be moved?
Even Lu Liangsheng was quite moved, he was not a saint, so he naturally hoped that with this money, he would improve his family and make his parents and sisters dress and eat well.
The young man glanced at the package, but the toad Taoist didn't want to speak, this time he could only make up his own mind.
Well..... I don't know if the ghost of Chen Yuan's family is fierce or not, even if I can't get rid of this point of cultivation, I should still be able to escape..... but if I have these five hundred taels, it doesn't matter if the village is right or not, even if I can't get the five hundred taels, I can help that Chen Yuanwai, and when the time comes, standing in the county office, the other party may also sell me a favor, reach out to help one or two, and I am not afraid that Beicun Youli is supporting.
The eight people over there were still sighing.
Suddenly, he heard Lu Liangsheng smash his palm and turned his head: "Let's go to Chen Yuanwai's house to have a look." ”
"Hey, good life, I really want to go....."
Lu Qing was excited before, and he was a little scared when he was told that he was a ghost, and before he finished speaking, he was pulled by Lu Pan and said in a low voice: "You forgot, what happened to the centipede spirit that day?"
Such a reminder, not only Lu Qing was stunned for a moment, but even the other six men surnamed Lu were stunned, remembering that in the firelight that night, they vaguely saw that the monster was saluting their eldest nephew, to say that it was wrong, but why didn't the monster eat the eldest nephew and them?
Thinking of this, the hearts of the eight people jumped suddenly: the demeanor and tone of the eldest nephew just now, maybe this thing can really be done!!
Eight people, you look at me, let me look at you, the flesh on the shoulders of the excited is shaking, and he hurriedly turned out his weapon from behind his back, and lined up behind Lu Liangsheng, revealing a fierce and vicious look, which frightened the people who originally crowded over to see the list and hid on both sides.
"Good life!"
On the way, the young man's shoulder package suddenly came from the voice of a toad Taoist.
Lu Liangsheng turned his face slightly, looked around, and lowered his voice: "Master, what's the matter?" There are a lot of people here, I'll talk about it later." ”
The package moved, revealing a gap, and the Purple Star Daoist poked out a mouth.
"You look ..... such an age, how can others let you in, and as soon as you open your mouth, you will be blasted out. ”
"Yes....."
Lu Liangsheng was reminded by this, and suddenly stopped, and the strong men in the row behind him also stopped, and Lu Pan came up: "Liangsheng, why don't you leave?"
The young man frowned and thought for a while, then approached the strong man and pointed to his patched clothes and childish face.
"Uncle Pan, can you find a big cloth, I want to cover my whole body. ”
probably thought that the eldest nephew would show his skills in the future so that people would not be easy to see, so Lu Pan nodded, left the two of them, and took the others to the streets.
Fushui County is just a small remote county, there are only 30,000 or 40,000 people in the city, counting those who go to work, open shops, and see the excitement of today, the rest of the streets and alleys are much quieter, and the woman who stayed at home pushed open the attic window and stretched out a clothes pole, and the gray sheets that were originally hung on the rope to dry in the air were left with only a few clothes still hanging wobly there.
Angrily leaned out half of his body, towards the end of the alley, several figures who were running with the sheets and scolding.
"What kind of ability is stealing bed sheets, if you have the ability to come up and steal the old lady-"
A few people who were in a hurry roared and returned to the crowd with the sheets, attracting many eyes to look over, and hurriedly turned away when they saw these bare-chested men.
Lu Liangsheng smelled it, and the smell of soaphorn was a little big on his body, and it was quite eye-catching.
"Forget it, that's it, Uncle Pan, we'll go over now. ”
Along the East Gate Vegetable Market Exit to the west through two long streets, to the north gate direction, that Fuller Fang is very famous, on the road to ask casually, there are people know.
"So many people ......"
Lu Liangsheng came here, standing under the archway, a long line of humanoid standing straight to the front, in front of the red gate and the stone steps of the two stone lions, there were forty people, all kinds of dresses, bald, bearded, yellow, orange and orange robes, and even tattered beggars were mixed in it, and then they were thrown out.
"Hurry up, get out, you ask for food outside our house all day long, and you want to get in. ”
The two Chen Mansion patted the dust on their hands, walked back to stand on both sides of the door, and looked at the 'strange people' who came up for the list with their arms crossed.
And in the long queue below, there are also many people who meet familiar faces.
"The king is half-blind, aren't you a fortune teller, why are you here?"
"The old man's fortune-telling is the ability to eat, and it is the duty to subdue demons and eliminate demons, not to mention that the old man is only half-blind, if he is completely blind, then he still has it?! Hey..... aren't you the merchant who walks the streets? Why are you here?"
"...... I walked the streets and alleys, that was ..... that was to experience the warmth and coldness of the world, you see that the butcher is here, why can't I come. ”
The chattering two looked behind them, and a fat figure stood in the middle of the team like a mountain of meat, wearing an apron, with a butcher's knife stuck in his waist, and the pair of thin eyes glared.
"What do you see, Lao Tzu kills pigs and sheep on weekdays, and he is murderous, what kind of ghost is close? I can't mix the five hundred taels, there are always five taels, right? Rao is like this, and the food and wine can also be prepared......
Lu Liangsheng understood these small and fragmented words, and the reward of five hundred taels was basically from ordinary people, pretending to be pretending to come and mingle.
When he was about to arrive, he turned back to Lu Pan and said, "Uncle Pan, you still have to wait outside, if there is really something, we can't all fold inside." ”
Before Lu Pan could reply, the Chen Mansion guarding the gate over there had already asked Lu Liangsheng to go in.
Wrapped in a dusty sheet, he couldn't see the whole picture, only his chin was exposed, but he looked like a strange man in a cloak, and the two people guarding the door had seen a lot of weirdos today, and they didn't care, so they waved him in after looking at it.
"Anyway, you can't get rid of the sneaky, then you come to find death by yourself, I wish you could come more, feed that ghost, and don't use it to harm us haha. ”
Outside, seeing that Lu Liangsheng had already entered, Lu Pan clenched his fist and smashed his palm.
"Liangsheng went in alone, I was a little uneasy....."
The seven nodded.
Lu Pan walked a few steps, looked at the gate, and said: "He is our eldest nephew, although he has some skills, but he is weak, if something happens, how will he explain to Lao Shi when he goes back?"
The seven of them squatted on the ground and nodded again.
The footsteps then stopped, Lu Pan gritted his teeth and looked back at them: "Let's go together, one more person and more strength, in case Liangsheng is not convinced, we may be able to pick up the cheap, and the five hundred taels can't be given to others for nothing." ”
The seven were enlightened.
Just listen to the sound of a punch over there.
"And ..... so many people, there must be food provided, and I haven't eaten a good meal in a few days. ”
The seven people stood up, nodded in unison, and followed Lu Pan straight up the stone steps, and the two family members over there stopped them: "What are you doing, a group of croppers are also here?"
"Farmer?"
Lu Pan raised his hand and grabbed back, pulled out the hunting knife tied to his back, and Sen Han's blade slashed open, causing the two people on the opposite side to retreat in a panic, slashing past their line of sight, and with a bang, the tip of the knife was nailed to the ground.
"Two fools who don't have eyesight, ......"
The blade of the knife was still shaking when it was stuck in the ground, and in everyone's sight, Lu Pan grabbed the short coat with both hands, and the seven people behind him also grabbed the placket and pulled it from side to side.
Hiss –
"Take a good look, farmer, but I am eight strong!"
One by one, the short coats were torn apart and flew into the air, falling down and brushing the copper or dark skin, under the sun, the sweat that was slightly oozing was densely covered and the thick arms exuded luster, Lu Pan's arms were pressed down, the green tendons were bulging, and his hands were clenched into fists.
also picked up the previous words, the voice is fierce!
"...... eight of me can catch tigers when I go up the mountain, and I can kill Jiao when I go down to the river, are I qualified to go in now?"
The clenched fist made a soft 'click' of bones.
Behind him, the seven people burst out with a 'ha' sound, their muscles were knotted, and their sweat-stained chests were like two hard iron plates, rising high.
Then, towards the door, the two family members shook one after another.
"There are....there are ..... eight, please inside!!"
The family who had never seen this kind of battle was stunned for a moment, and when he hurriedly got out of the way, Lu Pan picked up the clothes on the ground, put them on his shoulders at will, and pulled out the hunting knife on the ground.
"I'm waiting for eight people, masculine energy, enough to kill ghosts, if it's a female ghost, isn't that right?!"
The words were heroic, and they came from the door.
