Volume 1: Xingzhi Chapter 5: Conspiracy against Shen Yuzhu
Until late at night, the monstrous fire gradually extinguished, and Tanglin City was silent.
Nancheng, Shen Mansion.
With a bucket of cold water poured on the fat body with open skin, Zhu Ba, who was only thirteen years old, had a childish look on his face. I opened my eyes with difficulty, the anger in my eyes was unabated, and I kept scolding.
"The master was born poor, but died great. ”
Shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Master knows that burning down a few properties of your Shen family can't hurt your Shen family's muscles and bones. However, this is like a loud slap in the face of your Shen family, and it can be regarded as a bad breath for the people of Tanglin, haha, hurry up and torture the master, the master is not afraid. ”
Zhu Ba, who was tied to the stone pillar, had already opened his skin.
The flesh and skin on his body rolled, and the red blood kept flowing.
In front of the tea table next to the stone pillar, the purple-clothed young man played with the folding fan in his hand, looked at Zhu Ba, who would rather die than give in, with a playful expression, and commanded the subordinate in front of him with great interest.
"Hit, but not kill. This little brute didn't tell me what was going on behind the scenes, and he tortured me well. ”
"Yes. Master. ”
Lingshan Village, on the hillside.
More than ten teenagers sat on the ground, revealing a solemnity that did not match their age.
Everyone was silent, and the thin monkey looked at Ying Che, then at the other teenagers, and said first.
"Brother Che, Xiaoba was captured by that bastard Shen San, and Ergou and I crawled to the backyard of Shen's house and saw them whipping Xiaoba with a whip. If we don't save him quickly, Hachiko will die. ”
The crowd fell silent.
At the end of the day, they're just a bunch of fourteen or fifteen-year-olds.
What do you take to fight with the Shen family?
Ying Che looked at the night sky, let go of her clenched fist, and sighed deeply.
"It's definitely not okay to go directly to Shen's house to save people. Not to mention the dozen or so of us, even if we call all the men in our village, we won't pose the slightest threat to the Shen family. ”
"Otherwise, let's report to the police. The boy named Ergou proposed.
"No!" everyone rejected Ergou's proposal.
"The Shen family is so rich, they can buy off those who are officials casually by picking a little bit from between their fingernails. Moreover, it is a fact that Xiaoba set fire to the Shen firm. The monkey said.
After thinking about it, the monkey suddenly had an inspiration and looked at Yingche.
"Brother Che, why don't we go to the palace for help. I heard that the king of Tanglin is upright and loves the people like a son. If we can meet the king of Tanglin, he will definitely not care, you say. After speaking, he looked at the rest of the people and asked for their opinions.
"Do you think that the king of Tanglin belongs to your family, you can see it if you want? We are civilians, and before we get close to the palace, we were taken down by the guards of the palace, and you still want to see the prince. ”
Another teenager immediately rejected the monkey's proposal.
"It doesn't work, it doesn't work either. In my opinion, it's better for us to fight with the Shen family than to watch starlings being beaten to death by those bastards. "Uncle Da Zhuang's son Xiao Zhuang, although he is young, he has a little more blood than his father.
After a moment of silence, more than ten teenagers lost their minds, and their eyes stopped on Ying Che.
Zhu Ba was arrested because he was avenging his father. Reasonably, he wanted to rescue Zhu Ba more than anyone else. However, he also had to consider the safety of these brothers, and he must not let them rush into danger.
"Have you heard of Shen Yuzhu?" asked Ying Che for no reason.
"I know that the pearl of the Shen family, Shen Qingyun's daughter, I heard that she is a sick seedling. "The monkey was the first to rush the way.
nodded, approached everyone, and said in a sinister manner.
"That's right, Shen Yuzhu has been sick since she was a child, so she will go out of the city on the ninth day of every month and come to Lingshan to worship the gods. Moreover, since it is a worship, naturally it will not bring many followers. So, this is our only chance! Tie up the sick Miss Shen and exchange her life for Xiaoba's life. ”
"Brother Che, but... But tomorrow is the ninth day of the new year. ”
"So, we only had one night to prepare. ”
After speaking, he looked at the teenagers.
"Xiao Ran, you should know where the ecstasy incense in your grandfather's pharmacy is. ”
"Yes. The young man named Xiao Ran answered.
"Go to the altar and pass through the cave of the gods. Therefore, your task is to light the Ecstasy Incense before Shen Yuzhu and his party enter the Heavenly God Cave. ”
"Good. ”
"As soon as the morning dawns, Ergou, Xiaozhuang, Dawei, the three of you are ambushed at the exit of the Tianshen Cave leading to the altar, as long as Shen Yuzhu and his party are fascinated, they will immediately tie them up, go directly into the mountains along the back mountain path, and send them to the stone room that we often went to when we were children. ”
"What about us?" asked several teenagers who had not yet been assigned the task.
"The three of you, go to Xiaoba's house to steal the rattan line of Aunt Jinhua (similar to a fishing line, the bearing capacity is very strong. Then go to the east bank of the Lingjiang River, in the open space three miles downstream from the ferry, arrange the rattan line along the downstream, and pull the other end of the rattan line to the west bank of the Lingjiang River. Remember, the longer the rattan line is arranged, the safer we are. At this moment, Ying Che is like a marshal commanding thousands of troops, assigning combat missions to his soldiers.
"Good. ”
"Monkey, you four go to my house and bring my father's wheelbarrow and a plank the size of a man in the yard. Xiao Ran, Ergou, you must be ready before dawn, whether you can rescue Xiaoba, it depends on the actions after dawn. ”
"Understood!"
The boys agreed, turning to prepare for their respective tasks.
Starry-studded.
Ying Che was inexplicably depressed in his heart, sat down cross-legged, and silently recited the nine-character heart formula in his heart, but he couldn't calm down.
In this matter, regardless of whether it is right or wrong for the time being, capturing Shen Yuzhu for Zhu Ba must be a risky move. Once exposed, several of them, and even the entire Lingshan Village, will face the Shen family's monstrous anger.
Even if Zhu Ba is successfully rescued, with the power of the Shen family, following the line of Zhu Ba's identity, they can definitely be found. When the time comes, it will be a catastrophe.
However, if he doesn't do anything, how can Ying Che be worthy of Zhu Ba?
"Adults, whether right or wrong, follow your heart. ”
When I was upset, the voice of the little slave sounded in my heart.
"Little slave, why don't you help me rescue Hachi. Don't worry, as long as you can help me rescue Hachi, I will do whatever you ask me to do, how about it?"
According to Ying Che's understanding, the little slave in the jade should be a kind of existence that is transcendent from the outside of things.
If she is willing to take action, she will definitely be able to rescue Hachi.
Moreover, if the little slave made a move, there was no need for them to risk their lives to arrest Shen Yuzhu.
"This palace has done everything for you, what do you do? Ying Che, you won't grow up without pressure, this palace can help you once, but have you ever thought that as you grow older and more knowledgeable, you will encounter more troubles, and you will also encounter more powerful opponents than the Shen family, will you only count on this palace? If so, what is the meaning of your life? Hide behind this palace, steal your life, and spend your life in vain? So what is the difference between you being reborn this time and you dying directly in the previous world? Are you only going to sell your dignity to win the sympathy of this palace? or are you threatening this palace in the name of a stinking ditch?"
A word wakes up the dreamer.
Yes, I used to think it was good to have a dull life.
Now that I think about it, since we have lived a new life, wouldn't it be a failure to live up to the beauty of being born again if we do nothing?
"Follow your heart..."
He chewed the words of the little slave in his mouth, but he couldn't calm down in his heart.
"Ying Che, if you don't take the first step, you never know how capable you are. It's like the rescue plan you just laid out. It can be said that this is a very perfect solution. However, when your brothers are preparing, you become hesitant and hesitant. ”
struggling, shouting at the little slave in his heart.
"I'm not afraid of death, I'm just worried about the monkeys, I'm afraid they're going to lead them into the abyss from which they will never recover. ”
"Yes, the truth is, you're scared. You haven't done it yet, how do you know that the Shen family will definitely find out about you? How do you know that the Shen family will definitely show its anger on the people of Lingshan?"
The milky white light flickered, and the fairy-like jade shadow of the little slave appeared on the hillside.
Reaching out to help Ying Che up, his palm gently caressed the latter's face, and said softly.
"Ying Che, this palace was born with you, and you are the support of this palace, but this palace doesn't like you now. You are like a wooden man, for fifteen years, you will only read and medify those nine words in order. When did you think about taking those nine words apart and reorganizing them with your heart?"
"Remember, thinking and doing are not the same thing, and only by taking the first step can you face the second step, the third step. The road of the strong is not thought of. We need to be brave and fearless, we need to be tenacious, we need to be fearless of heaven and earth, and we need to overcome obstacles. In the future, the people you meet will be much stronger than the Shen family, and if you cower, it will only eliminate your strong heart. ”
Philistine, only imaginary.
The strong need to act!
The jade fingers blended with her cheeks, and Ying Che's heart beat rapidly.
"I... What should I do?"
"Only by doing it can you get a glimpse of the results you want. So, let go of the baggage in your heart and do what you want. Of course, you can use this action as a test for you by this palace, and if you succeed, this palace will reward you. ”
