Chapter 257: The Chaotic Huang Clan
Li Ji rode a mule out of Chonghua Temple early the next morning, and in any case he had to rush to Shanglingou before this evening, even if he used a leather whip to travel 900 miles in two days, it would be a shame for the monks.
He tried his best to control himself not to think about the Pufa Temple, not to think about those poor children, to change all this it takes the power of the state, not the blood of a Taoist, the Pufa Temple has dozens of branches in the Twin Peaks Islands, where is the location? What is the composition of the personnel? Who is the culprit and who is the accomplice and coercion? This is not something that can be solved by a sword or a mule at all.
Fortunately, today's mule performance is very powerful, at the beginning of the afternoon, Li Ji entered Shanglingou Town, but just after entering the town, he encountered a bad thing, a crazy woman with a cloak suddenly came out of the side of the street, and was almost trampled under the hooves of the frightened mule, if it weren't for Li Ji's quick reaction and amazing divine power, Li Ji's first traffic accident since the crossing would have occurred.
"Keep an eye on your family, it's dangerous to let it out and run around the streets. Li Ji suppressed his temper and said to the relatives of the crazy woman who chased him out.
Perhaps it was because he saw Li Ji subduing the tall mule with one hand, and the relatives who had always been in awe of the warrior did not have any extraneous branches, and an old man next to him sighed:
"This little brother is not strange, the sister-in-law of the Lin family has lost her child, so she has been a little confused in recent days, and she has collided with the little brother, please forgive me. “
In the gossip of the villagers next to him, Li Ji quickly figured out the reason, the Lin family couple usually eat fasting and chant Buddha, their hearts are very sincere, a few months ago the two had their first child, so they invited the Dharma Master to identify, and the result was judged to be a girl, so they bought a pill stone and planned to go to the fetus.
After I didn't want to come back, the woman regretted it a little, thinking that this was her own child after all, and it was still good to be born anyway, even if it was really a girl; the eldest brother of the Lin family couldn't, the family was poor, and it was difficult to support the two children, so she took advantage of the Lin family's sister-in-law to prepare and put the medicine in the food, and in the end, the fetus was gone, but the wife was also crazy, and this is the general situation.
"O iniquity......" the crowd sighed and dispersed, and they did not know where the iniquity in their mouths came from.
Li Ji had a calm face, and his mood was very depressed, as if this Twin Peaks Islands suppressed not only the spiritual wit, but also the mood.
He decided to make a quick decision, to get the zodiac trust as soon as possible, and to leave as soon as possible, he really didn't want to stay on this island for a moment.
The town is not big, and there are no donors in the tooth shop, so I directly found the largest inn in the town and took a picture of five taels of silver in front of the shopkeeper.
"The Huang clan of Shanglin Town, do you know?"
"I know, I know, the biggest family in Shanglin, who can not know?" The shopkeeper picked up the silver, and his face turned into a flower.
"I'm going to find three people with foreign surnames who are most familiar with the Huang family's lineage, if you find them, these five taels of silver will be yours. “
Seeing the vigilance on the shopkeeper's face, Li Ji added another sentence: "There must be a public person among them." “
The shopkeeper settled down at this time, since he named the public, then he would not be a traitor, he was active, knowing that there might be some profit in it, so he asked: "Little Lao'er has also lived in this town for decades, and he knows the roots of the Huang family, can he be regarded as one?"
Li Ji agreed, and after a while, the town's thief, a villager elder, and the shopkeeper sat in front of Li Ji; Li Ji didn't bother to bother, so he directly took out three ingots of silver and slapped them on the table.
"I need the genealogy of the Huang family, within nine generations, immediate family, you and the other three of you write separately, no plagiarism, write accurately, this silver is yours." “
The three of them have their own identities and are not angry with Li Ji's attitude, but they have no complaints in front of the silver, they pick up the pen and paper and write separately, thinking that they will clean up this arrogant boy after getting the silver;
After writing one by one in a short time, Li Ji compared with each other, but there was no difference, and there was no time for collusion in such a sudden situation, so he turned around and left, the thief still had some sense of responsibility, or saw that Li Ji carried a lot of money with him, so he stretched out his hand to stop it,
"The guest stopped, but I still have something to ask you. “
As soon as Li Ji raised his hand and touched the wrist of this person, the thief only felt like he had been struck by lightning, and he suddenly couldn't lift a trace of strength, knowing that he had met a martial arts master, he didn't dare to think about anything else, so he could only watch Li Ji go away and leave a word.
"I'm from the Northern Regions, and I've brought some relics to the Huang family, if you are interested, you can also go to the Huang family's ancestral house to have a look. ”
At this time, it was the end of the Shen period, and Li Ji did not want to stay here for one more night, so he went straight to the Huang family's ancestral house in the town.
It is not a simple matter to bring the property bequeathed by the ancestors to a large family; it is good that the heirs are difficult, but it is troublesome to branch out, and it is very irresponsible to simply give the property to the patriarch.
According to the practice of Li Ji in his previous life, the most just thing is to establish a foundation, hire a special person to manage it, distribute money and property to each clan member every month or every year according to the distance of relatives, and make some appropriate investments, but in this world, at the moment, how can it be done?
Li Ji's approach is more compromised, that is, to find out the family branches closest to the blood source of the zodiac, and then divide the property, as for the troubles, disputes, temperament, goodness and other messy troubles in each vein, he doesn't want to care, and he can't manage it.
Fortunately, although the Huang clan is a big clan in Shanglingou, it is not the same as the real clan in the northern region, the whole clan only has a population of about 100, and it is about divided into three branches plus an orphan girl, but this orphan girl is the closest in blood, Li Ji's idea is also simple, the property is divided into four parts, and the ball is divided.
The attraction of sharing the inheritance is huge, and the speed of transmission is very fast, Li Ji is also helpless, he has no time to stay here longer, either to make everyone know, and force the clan to be a little fairer, or secretly grant, after leaving, leave a lot of secret troubles, embezzlement, embezzlement, embezzlement. In comparison, it may be safer to make a bigger noise.
There is no such thing as complete justice, don't test the virtue of human beings in front of possessions, even if the zodiac is here in person, and if he stays for another ten years, he will not be just.
Li Ji was welcomed into the lobby of the Huang family's old mansion, and the Huang clan moved quickly, knowing that Huang Rusong's old uncle had brought them a legacy from the Northern Regions, as long as they were still in Shanglingou, they were basically all gathered here, and there were sixty or seventy people.
Seeing that the people of the Huang clan were almost here, the elders of the towns, the thieves, and several public officials were also present, Li Ji raised his voice,
"I am Huang Gong's fellow disciple, entrusted by Huang Gong on his deathbed, and some property is given to the clansmen, so I came from afar......"
Before Li Ji finished saying this, there were already some people at the bottom who were impatient, "You said that you are the ancestor of the same family, but you can rely on your trust? How much wealth the ancestor has left behind, and how can you know the exact amount? Who knows if you have embezzled it? If you don't make these things clear, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out of this house today!"
Li Ji sighed in his heart, and sure enough, this black eye couldn't see the snow and silver, so he asked gently, "Who are you?"
The man took a step proudly, "I am the seventh grandson of the second room under my uncle, and now I am the county school attendant, and the talented Huang Dingzhong is also." ”
Li Ji nodded, "Okay." ”
With the handle turned over, the long sword in his hand, and the lightning flashed, one of Huang Xiucai's left palms had been cut off, and he was rolling on the ground in pain.
"I said 10,000 taels is 10,000 taels, I said 10,000 taels is 1,000 taels, do you have any objections?"
