Chapter 4 Invite heroes
Qunshan County is not big, in addition to the county lord is the largest official force in the county, there are also some gentry landlords and gangs, and the Lin Family Dart Bureau can be regarded as a well-known local force.
Ning Fang and Lin Lingling couldn't accept the fact of this time, and the tears couldn't stop flowing, and Tang Ming couldn't help but accept the news, and a sharp shock in his heart and a sour feeling rose from his heart.
The three of them didn't expect that a simple dart would be separated from heaven and earth, and the bones did not exist, so they could not bring back the body of the lonely city, and this time he also brought some consolation money.
"This is fifteen taels of silver, and we specially asked me to send it, and please mourn. "Wang Dart's face is heavy, Gu Chengzi is a bold person and has a very personal relationship with him, and he is also very sorry, so he came to inform him.
The purchasing power of money in today's Great Xuan Kingdom:
A tael of gold is equal to ten taels of silver, and a tael of silver is equal to a thousand pennies
One tael of silver is basically enough for a family of three to live for a month, and fifteen taels of consolation money is indeed equivalent to about a year's salary, which is relatively particular in this era, and many dart games do not even have consolation money.
Wang Dart Master also roughly explained the ins and outs, where he was ambushed, robbed, and how the casualties were.
"In the past three days, we will invite heroes to go to avenge your master by recruiting those bandits, you can rest assured, this revenge will not go unavenged!"
......
There are nearly 100 dart masters in the Lin Family Dart Bureau, all of whom are good at martial arts, and they have some background connections with the government, so even the famous horse bandits and bandits in the vicinity will give the Lin Family Dart Bureau a face.
And the Lin family dart bureau can walk on the rivers and lakes for many years without falling, but also pay attention to the morality of the rivers and lakes, pay attention to harmony and make money, and often deal with these vicious bandits, and know how to deal with them, but they are pecked blind by geese all day long.
But I never thought that this time when the dart passed through the Black Wind Ridge, it was robbed by a group of unknown bandits in the Black Wind Ridge, and this time the loss was heavy, and there were twenty-seven dart masters who went to the dart this time, seven of them were killed, and the rest of the dart masters were injured.
In the hall of the Lin Family Dart Bureau, Lin Jian, the head of the dart, sat in the middle, and the rest of the dart heads and some veteran dart masters sat on both sides.
Lin Jian had a gloomy face: "Where did this gang of thieves come out this time, why haven't you heard of it before?"
If the Lin family dart bureau does not say a word this time, I am afraid it will be considered weak and bullied, it is not only someone killed or injured, but also will affect the livelihood of everyone in the next dart game.
His younger brother Lin Xing stood up and said: "Big brother, this time this group of thieves calls themselves Black Wind Village, there was a Black Wind Village on Black Wind Ridge a long time ago, but because of the encirclement and suppression of the government five years ago, the Black Wind Village was exterminated at that time, we have also passed through this place frequently over the years, but I don't know when a group of bandits gathered. ”
"What is the power of this Black Wind Village? The people who went to the dart this time are all veterans who have been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, how could they be beaten so badly?" Lin Jian asked solemnly looking at a dart master on the seat on the right.
This dart master is still wrapped around his right arm, he should have been stabbed in the right arm by a long sword, and he looks quite miserable.
The dart master made a bitter face and said with some hesitation: "This time the number of the other party should be thirty or forty, but it's just ......."
Lin Jian frowned, thirty or forty people? his heart was full of doubts, there were nearly thirty dart masters this time, and they were all veterans, how could they be invincible against the same number of people, and it was not just as simple as being defeated, seven people were killed, and everyone else was injured.
Seeing that this dart master seemed to have an unspeakable secret, he couldn't help asking: "It's just? What's it? Now all the people present are the elites of our dart game, but it doesn't hurt to say it!"
"That day, we waited for the goods to pass through the Black Wind Ridge with this time, the Black Wind Ridge is not high, but there is only one way to pass through quickly, at that time, this group of thieves were ambushing us on the mountain road, this group of thieves was extremely arrogant, and they didn't care about the identity of the Lin Family Dart Bureau at all, of course, we were not afraid of them, until ......"
The dart master's lips were a little dry, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and continued: "Until there was a black-robed Taoist, that Daoist was even more arrogant, not only sharp-toothed and sharp-mouthed, but also able to use demon methods, every time that Daoist pointed at a person, there was a person who was sluggish, and then was killed on the spot by that group of thieves! Obviously, that group of people was not much stronger than us, and in the end we could only be forced to flee in all directions!"
"What nonsense! Is there a ghost or god in this world?!" Lin Xing suddenly said sharply.
Lin Jian was also skeptical of what he said to this person, he had heard a lot of similar rumors for so many years, but he had never seen it himself, so he didn't believe that there would really be ghosts, gods and demons.
The dart master did not argue, and slowly untied the strip of cloth wrapped around his arm, except for a deep wound on his upper arm, which was untied to the position below his elbow, and the whole lower arm was pale and swollen, almost deformed.
"This is the demon law of the Taoist. It's just that at that time, I was lucky to have escaped the opponent's life-threatening sword move, and the lone master covered me for me, so I could escape with my life!"
"Is there really a demon? Isn't there no chance of winning this time?"
"How is this good? What about this revenge?"
The dart masters and dart players in the hall all started to talk about it, and the accident did give them a great impact and confidence blow, if there is really such a strange technique, then how can there be a chance of winning?
But this dart master obviously hates this demon to the core, and says it out for better revenge, and does not simply want to break everyone's confidence.
He continued: "This demon path can't use demon magic infinitely, and he only sent it six or seven times before he ran out of strength, I just saw his spell on me, there was a gray water bead attacking me, I subconsciously blocked it with my hand, and as a result, my arm was swollen, this water bead-like thing may be the demon Dao's demon magic, maybe we can resist it with something!"
Then there was another discussion, indeed this news is very important to everyone, knowing that they are invincible, and there is also the uncertainty of this demon way, after all, no one here has ever seen such a thing.
Lin Jian, the head of the dart, discussed with everyone, and finally decided to gather all the manpower, if they can't get the goods back this time, they have to compensate not only these dead and injured people, the value of this batch of goods is very high, and it is also related to the key to whether his Lin family dart bureau can continue to open.
"Also, we don't have enough manpower, so let's spread the news and say that I, the Lin Family Dart Bureau, invite all capable Jianghu experts to go together! As long as the strength is enough, I will hire them with a lot of money! Set off in three days!" Lin Jian said in a deep voice to his younger brother Lin Xing beside him.
"Yes!" Lin Xing clenched his fists and immediately went down to arrange matters.
"Wang Hai, Zhang Quan, the two of you go to the account room to receive the pension according to the number of people, and take the money to the deceased brother's house, which can also be regarded as an explanation to the dead brothers!" Lin Jian instructed the other two dart masters who sat down.
The two also hugged their fists and took the order.
