After instructing everyone, Jiang Han followed the old couple and the little girl out of the courtyard and came to the entrance of the village. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

I saw that the entrance of the village was already full of villagers, and there were one or two hundred people. Surrounded by twenty or thirty people dressed as bandits, all riding horses with knives on their backs, holding torches in their hands, the first one looked to be in his thirties, with a sallow face and a sickly look, triangular eyes drooping eyebrows, and a hooked nose and catfish mouth, which made people feel disgusted at first sight.

Jiang Han estimated that this was the Tan leader, and he wanted to see what the Tan leader wanted to do, so he quietly mixed in the crowd and didn't speak.

The leader saw that the people were almost here, coughed twice, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Folks, everyone knows that in our area, it has always been my Qingliao Village to ensure the safety of this side, so it is natural for us Qingliao Village to collect some peace money everywhere, please consciously take the peace money, we can say anything, if you toast and don't eat and drink, then don't blame me for being polite!"

At this time, I don't know who in the crowd said: "But we have paid the money for the August Festival, and it has doubled." ”

When the leader heard this, he sneered: "It was last month, and I have to pay the peace money on time on the fifteenth day of the first month of every month, if not, it will be difficult to say whether the peace is not safe." After speaking, he licked his lips yinly.

At this time, an old man boldly said: "But when Leader Lu was here before, he only came to collect it on three festivals a year, and when you came, it became twice a month, this is not in accordance with the rules, how can you let us live?"

The leader glared at him: "Rules? Now I have the final say, and the things I set are the rules! Lu Maozhi is a wreck, and he can't collect much money every year, if it weren't for the good relationship with our village owner, I would have cleaned him up a long time ago! Now that waste has died outside, this piece will be under my control in the future, I will say as much as I want, one less eldest son, I want you to look good! As for how you live? It's none of my business!"

As soon as he said this, the bottom suddenly began to whisper, they didn't expect that Lu Maozhi was dead, no wonder Qingliaozhai would send such a fierce god to collect money, when Lu Maozhi came in the past, people were easy to talk, they were familiar with the people in the village, and the money was easy to collect, but now that they have changed to such a wicked person, how can they live in the future. ”

The leader looked at the villagers and discussed for a while, and said impatiently: "Okay, okay, don't chatter, take money from door to door, according to the head, I want you to look good if you have one less child." ”

Seeing that there were fierce and vicious bandits all around, the villagers did not dare to resist, so they had to obediently line up and pay the money.

Jiang Han asked the old man in a low voice: "Old man, how does Qingliaozhai know how many people are in the village?"

The old man whispered: "This Qingliao Village has been collecting safe money here for many years, there is a roster in our village, and it has always been collected by capitation, but it didn't collect much before, and our village is also rich, but Leader Lu actually had an accident, and if he changed this vampire, how will he live in the future." ”

Jiang Han also sighed and didn't speak, Lu Maozhi's accident was something he saw with his own eyes, but he didn't expect this person to go to tea and cool, and even the little territory of Lu Maozhi before his death was divided up cleanly.

The old man looked at Jiang Han and sighed, thinking that he was afraid, and comforted him: "Don't worry about the dart, I went to pay this money, they won't trouble us, and you will leave early tomorrow morning." After saying that, he took the money and walked forward to pay it.

When the Tan leader saw the old man coming over, he hurriedly stopped him: "Liu Lao'er, Liu Lao'er, you wait." ”

Old Man Liu didn't know what he wanted to do, so he hurriedly stopped, bowed down and asked, "What else is going on with Leader Tan?"

Leader Tan smiled gloomily: "Liu Lao'er, in the future, your family's peace money will be exempted." ”

Old man Liu didn't think that there would be such a flying surprise, and hurriedly thanked him again and again: "Thank you Leader Tan, little old man is grateful." ”

Leader Tan helped him up and pointed at the little girl beside Mrs. Liu with his hand: "I have another thing to do this time, that is, I plan to marry your granddaughter back, so that we are a family, how can I still collect your money?"

When Old Man Liu heard this, his eyes immediately widened: "Leader Tan, no, my granddaughter has already decided on a family matter, and I ask Leader Tan's subordinates to be merciful." ”

When Leader Tan heard this, he immediately straightened his face: "Liu Lao'er, don't be embarrassed, I am willing to marry your granddaughter, that is your blessing, if you push back and be careful, I want your dog's life!"

Old man Liu hurriedly knelt on the ground in fright, and kept kowtowing: "Leader Tan, please spare Xiaoyun, she is still a child, I am willing to double the peace money in the future, please Leader Tan raise your noble hand." ”

Leader Tan glanced down at Old Man Liu, and kicked him on the heel: "You are an old immortal, you have the right to say what I decide?" After speaking, he greeted his subordinates: "You two, go and bring Xiaoyun to me." ”

The two thieves said yes, separated the crowd and walked this way.

When the little girl saw the two people coming over, she was already scared stupid, and kept drilling behind Mrs. Liu, shouting with a crying voice: "Grandma, grandma save me." ”

Old Mrs. Liu was also stupid, and hurriedly knelt down for the two people: "Two kings, please spare Xiaoyun, you can let me do anything, my house, livestock, and land, you want to take it, please let Xiaoyun go." ”

The two cottages sighed: "Old lady Liu, is this matter up to our brothers?" Leader Lu is dead, this Tan leader is the brother-in-law of the lord of Wei Zhai, we can't afford to provoke him, we can only do what he says, I hope you don't blame us." After saying that, one person grabbed Mrs. Liu, and one person came over to catch Xiaoyun.

When Xiaoyun saw that her grandmother was also caught, she closed her eyes helplessly. Seeing that the thief's hand was about to grab Xiaoyun, suddenly the cottage felt that his wrist was being grabbed tightly, and when he turned his head, he saw a young man reaching out and grabbing his wrist.

When the thief looked at Jiang Han, he felt angry, and asked, "Who are you? You are not from Liujia Village?"

Jiang Han glanced at him expressionlessly: "You don't care who I am, you can't take this person away today." ”

Xiaoyun waited for a while to see that he was not caught, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that it was Jiang Han who blocked the cottage, and hurriedly hid behind Jiang Han, and begged with a crying voice: "Please save me." ”

When the cottage saw Jiang Han dressed as a martial artist, although he looked very young, he didn't know where he came from, and he didn't dare to underestimate him, so he said: "This brother, are you passing by here? This matter has nothing to do with you, I advise you not to go through this troubled water." After speaking, he wanted to withdraw his arm, but he knew that his arm was like growing in Jiang Han's hand, and he didn't move for a long time. (To be continued.) )
