Cooking smoke curls, the chaffinch's return late, the black eagle hovers the sky, and the sunset is about to end. The afterglow dyed the eaves of the red and blue tiles, and the beggars escorted the two through the dark alleys, their steps hurrying. They hurried away, but they didn't notice the stalker in the air.

After walking for about two quarters of an hour, we finally arrived at the north of the city, and there was a lonely abandoned house on the wasteland, with broken walls and dilapidated and decaying. The two gates were tilted to the left and right, and a sentry beggar was squatting on the pitted steps, nibbling on a steamed bun in his mouth.

Seeing his companions, the beggar hurriedly swallowed his rations, clapped his hands, got up and said, "Second brother, have you brought a newcomer?"

Lin Yi noticed a tall and thin man standing here, with a gloomy face and rugged bones. He spat and said, "These two little ghosts are not sensible, dare to break our rules, beg in the district, and clean up tonight." ”

He paused, and then asked, "What about the third child?"

The beggar replied, "The third brother has just returned, and today he has found a widow, who looks quite peugeot, and she should be happy in the room." ”

"Huh!" The tall and thin man's eyes lit up and he smacked his lips: "Then I'll go and have a good time." ”

"Second brother, you take this girl with you, and you don't look bad?" the beggar rubbed his hands together.

The tall man looked at Luo Caiwei, shook his head, and said with disgust: "No breasts and no ass, thin and small, Lao Tzu can't look down on him, and he will change with the third child, he is so good." ”

Luo Caiwei was embarrassed, clenched her fists, and stared at each other. Lin Yi's face was cold, like frost, and he firmly remembered this person's appearance and sneered.

The tall and thin man was glared at by Luo Caiwei, not angry, but happy, and teased: "Yo, the little girl's eyes are very fierce, don't worry, I will let the third child teach you to be happy and taste the taste of being a woman." ”

Thinking of the children who were abducted by the beggars, they are still missing, and their lives and deaths are unpredictable. Luo Caiwei had to grit her teeth, swallow her anger, and after a few breaths, she still felt angry and tears drooping.

The tall and thin man looked at her like this, thinking that he was afraid of himself, but he was proud, puffed up his chest, pressed the two of them into the door, and the beggars followed scattered.

Stepping through the overgrown courtyard, we came to the main hall, where a dozen or so beggars stood around a cauldron. The bonfire is bright, the fish in the pot floats and sinks, the white soup is rich, and the aroma is scattered. The tall man casually found a vacant seat, and the beggar next to him hurriedly handed over a clean dumpling, stuffed it under his buttocks, and said, "Second brother, please take a seat." ”

He sat down in a big seat, and the beggars he brought with him all went to the head of the temple. Lin Yi fixed his eyes and looked, there was also a burly man there, with a tiger's back and a bear waist as tall as an ox, thick arms, a pair of leopard eyes with round eyes, and a brilliant light.

The beggars took turns to come to him, bowed their heads, and gave their money bags. The big man fished it out, untied the leash, and each bag of copper coins ranged from dozens to hundreds, and then poured into the deep bucket next to his legs, and there was a lot of commotion.

According to the number, the Han gave back a tenth of the beggar, and at least the one got only three, and at most only ten. Lin Yi noticed that when he was operating, although the beggars looked full of pain, they were afraid of their obscenity, and no one dared to raise objections.

Lin Yi roughly calculated, according to the price of Yunguo, a copper coin is only enough to buy a steamed bun, no wonder the beggars are all yellow and thin, and they can't eat enough.

After the handing over, the big man leopard looked at him and said in a humming voice: "Second brother, what are these two little ghosts doing?"

The tall and thin beggar sucked the fish soup and said: "Boss, my subordinates told me today that there were people on their territory who asked for food, and they didn't understand the rules, so I took someone to beat them up and escorted them back to the rudder." ”

"I see. The boss pondered for a moment and said to Lin Yi: "I am the helmsman of the beggar gang, and in this city, beggars and pickpockets are under my control." You will also be my people in the future, remember for me, there are five precepts in the gang!"

He said viciously: "First, if you dare to violate this precept, Lao Tzu will immediately rip off your human skin! Second, you can't escape, otherwise I will be caught and my legs will be broken on the spot." Third, everyone has their own territory, and they should not be chaotic, and violators will be severely punished. Fourth, I will take ninety percent of the money and dare to keep it private, and my fingers will not be protected. Fifth, if a person with an able-bodied hand or foot encounters a disabled beggar, he should take the initiative to back down - do you understand?"

Lin Yi nodded again and again, and said in a panic: "I understand, I understand!" The kid is new to the city, and he has no intention of making a mistake, so he will abide by it in the future, please spare the boss this time." ”

"Good. The boss looked sideways at Luo Caiwei, raised his chin and asked, "What about you?"

Luo Caiwei's face was slightly angry, suppressed her anger, and said slowly: "I...... Understood. ”

"It's good to understand, you two come over and pay for today's harvest. He beckoned.

Lin Yi stepped forward first, took out the money bag, and respectfully presented it. The big man weighed the money bag, raised his eyebrows, and said in surprise: "You kid has gained a lot?" After a moment, he patted him on the shoulder and encouraged: "Do a good job, the fourth position is reserved for you." Then he said: "But you broke the third rule, read it as a first offense, wait for someone to take you to clean the toilet, don't be lazy." ”

Lin Yi thanked him and retreated, and Luo Caiwei walked up to the big man and also presented the money bag. The big man took it, there were few of them, and he suddenly changed color, and said angrily: "Waste, I think you have a beautiful face!"

He split his thighs and said angrily: "Fuck, it's a pity that Lao Tzu is not interested in thin chickens, from today onwards, you will sleep with the second child for one night, serve well, and then accompany the third child tomorrow, there are more than 20 brothers here, you will take turns to serve me!"

When the beggars heard this, they were excited, cheered and thundered, and looked at her with a look of obscurity.

Luo Caiwei's body trembled sharply, her neck was red, her teeth were clenched, and she couldn't help but beat him. But thinking that in order to save the children, Senior Brother Lin would rather abandon all his dignity, fight back, and scold back. I had to swallow the humiliation in my stomach, wipe my tears and leave, and return to my original position.

Lin Yi whispered beside her and asked, "Little Senior Sister, do you want me to kill him now?"

Luo Caiwei hid her face and shook her head, and said in a low voice: "It's okay, you go to find the children, I'll delay the time." ”

"Little Senior Sister. Lin Yi's eyes were sad, and he said sadly: "I'm sorry, I wronged you." ”

Luo Caiwei wiped away her tears and forced a laugh, "Hmph, I'll beat that third child to death later." ”

The two were taken away by the beggar and went their separate ways. Lin Yi was escorted to the thatched house in the side yard, and he smelled the foul smell from a distance, opened the small door and took a look, it was full of filth, flies were spinning, and maggots were crawling. Two beggars handed over a shovel and urged outside the door: "Silly, hurry up and clean up, smoke Lao Tzu to death." ”

Lin Yi covered his nose, looked inside, and suddenly muttered: "Big brothers, it stinks too much here, can you do me a favor, the kid has a gift." ”

The two sloppy men looked at each other, half-convinced of this, and couldn't help but wonder: "What gift?"

Lin Yi stretched out his hands, grabbed their heads, and shouted: "Ten thousand taels of gold!"

With a little effort, the two of them were pressed into the pit, their mouths and noses filled with filth, and they struggled desperately. Lin Yi dragged them back and asked sharply: "The beggar gang kidnapped some children not long ago, where are they hidden?"

The men vomited loudly, endured the smell, and threatened: "You kid wait, let's beggars help the helmsman, but the master of the Qi Pulse Realm, he is half a step away from being admitted to the Heavenly Book Mansion, and when he becomes conscious, he has to beat you to death." ”

"Don't be verbose!" Lin Yi interrupted in a cold voice, "You still want to taste the taste of gold?"

The two of them shook their heads wildly, they didn't expect to meet the fierce god, they were so frightened that they were scared and urinated, and said in a trembling voice: "Hero, spare your life, those children are in the cellar in the east!"

"Honestly. Lin Yi let go of his hands, cut off his palm, and slashed at the back of the neck and spine of the two of them, instantly fainting. looked up at the moonlit sky, found the black eagle, waved his hand, waited for it to land, and immediately shouted: "Miss Qin Rou, their leader is in charge, it is a little difficult to deal with, you hurry back and get my knife." ”

The Black Hawk was ordered and flew up. Lin Yi took advantage of the night and sneaked into the east courtyard to look for it.

On the other hand, Luo Caiwei was sent by the beggars to the third room, and a fat man sat naked on the edge of the bed, holding a long whip, his pants were raised at his knees, and his lower body was exposed. There was also a young woman, paralyzed on the futon, her back covered with whip marks, bloodstained, moaning and sobbing.

When he saw Luo Caiwei, he stood up suddenly, his fat trembled, and he said with high interest: "Where did this beautiful girl come from?"

"Back to the third brother, this girl was sent by the second brother to serve you. The beggars looked at each other, and it was meaningful.

"Good brother, righteous enough!" the fat man was happy.

"Third brother, let's go, don't disturb your interest. The beggars closed the door and left, turned around, and leaned against the window again to eavesdrop.

The fat man walked towards Luo Caiwei and said with a smile: "Little girl, come and make Ye Shuangshuang~"

Luo Caiwei closed her eyes, didn't dare to look at his body, and when the footsteps approached, she suddenly squinted her eyes, and she was really angry, and a punch hit him in the heart.

The fat man froze, his strength penetrated, and the candle flame swayed, and he lowered his head and spat out blood, and the long whip fell. Raising his head in horror, he looked at the girl in horror, only to see that her eyes were cold, as if she were looking at an ant.

When the woman on the bed heard the sound, she also turned over weakly, and when she saw this scene, she was dumbfounded, covered her mouth and wept, and couldn't help but say, "The woman ......"

Luo Caiwei grabbed his neck with her left hand, didn't scream at him, clenched her fist with her right hand, and smashed it down with her head and face, her fist was bloody, and it was splashed all over her clothes. The fat man raised his arm to protect his face, but his arm was folded at the touch of a button, and he had no power to resist.

The candlelight flickered, reflecting the figures of the two on the window paper, like a hellish scroll. A few beggars outside stared at the reflection and smacked their tongues: "It turns out that the third brother likes this tune?"

In the east courtyard, Lin Yi stepped into the stairs and felt into the dungeon, and the guards came to him and shouted, "Who is it?"

Lin Yi took nine palace steps, as if walking on the ground, blinked closely, held down his head and smashed it against the wall, "Bang!"

Lin Yi went straight into the depths, ignoring the guards as nothing, and no one could take a single move under him. Leaving behind him, he set foot in the water prison, raised his torches, and opened the door, where a group of emaciated children were locked up, trapped in chains.

The children were woken up by the sound of crossing the water, rubbed their eyes, looked at them with dull eyes, huddled together in fear, and murmured: "Brother, we will be obedient, stop fighting." ”

"Don't be afraid, my brother is not a bad person, I will save you. Lin Yi comforted, found the children, finally had a smile on his face, looked at the chain, there was a lock, and said softly: "Don't panic, I'll go find the key." ”
