Chapter 018: Master Xiao's Book
The two officials were extremely heavy, and the old village chief had already been beaten to the point that his bones were broken and his tendons were broken, and he was drenched in blood, and he fell to the ground and convulsed, and he couldn't live.
Although the people in the village were angry, they didn't dare to approach because of the ferocity of the officials, so they could only bear to turn their faces to the side.
"One hundred taels of silver, don't think about asking for more...... You'd better get acquainted with each other, otherwise you won't be able to get a tael of silver when the time comes. ”
In front of the kiln factory, a head catcher held a scabbard in his left hand and a steel knife in his right hand, shouting loudly in front of everyone!
"Excessively, a hundred taels of silver...... No matter how bad the kiln is, it is worth no less than a thousand taels!"
"The kiln factory is our lifeblood, and if we want to buy the kiln factory for just one hundred taels, it is too deceitful!"
The potters are angry, the kiln factory is to take away their life, and to take away the kiln factory is to force them to a dead end!
"Too much deception?--Dare to disrupt the people, dare to contradict the master of the book, and beat me hard!"
The official had already prepared, and as soon as his eyes changed, someone immediately rushed into the crowd, grabbed several potters who were speaking, and dragged them towards the field.
Several people were dragged into the field, and a group of officials were like wolves, and they pounced on them and waved sticks.
An old potter was hit on the back of the head with a stick, and immediately the blood flowed, and he fell to the ground and convulsed vigorously.
"Stop—"
Lu Changgen stood up, walked forward with heavy steps, gritted his teeth and made a difficult decision: "I, promise your conditions!"
What the?
As soon as the words fell, everyone was stunned!
"Master, you are confused!" someone shouted!
"You can't sell it, you can't sell it!"
"The kiln factory is our lifeblood, even if we work hard, we can't lose it. ”
"Yes, it's a big deal to fight with them!"
The potters were so anxious that they couldn't help but scream, and even the few people who were knocked to the ground looked at him unwillingly.
Lu Changgen is the master of the kiln factory, according to the rules, he accounts for forty percent, the rest of the potters account for thirty percent, and the old and young in the village account for thirty percent, so it is true that only he can sell the kiln factory if he opens his mouth. Lu Changgen didn't know that this kiln factory was his life's work, and it was the livelihood guarantee of the whole village, but he had to sell it!
"Shut up, don't you know when I do—"
Lu Changgen, who has always been kind, roared unprecedentedly:
"But although the kiln factory is good, it is not more important than life...... As long as life is still alive and people are still there, we can build another kiln factory......"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then fell silent, and after a long time, they all turned their heads helplessly, they had no choice!
Yes, no matter how valuable the kiln is, it can be rebuilt if it is gone, but if it is lost, there is nothing!
"Lord Bookkeeper, I agree to your request! One hundred taels of silver, this kiln factory will sell it to you!" Lu Changgen gritted his teeth and spoke.
When the middle-aged civil official opened his eyes, it was as if a ray of sunshine appeared in the middle of the dark clouds, and this person sneered: "Very good, I like people who know current affairs...... You reminded me that I would do with an empty kiln factory without workers? My 100 taels of silver was not only for the kiln, but also for you craftsmen. In the future, you must work in my kiln factory, you and I will not treat you badly, ordinary people have five pieces of silver a month, and craftsmen have one or two pieces of silver a month. ”
"You...... It's just too deceitful!"
"An ordinary craftsman, the monthly salary is also five taels of silver. ”
"Lao Tzu is just a miscellaneous man, and he has two taels a month. ”
"The devil came here to work...... You might as well kill us. ”
"Yes, don't die with him. ”......
The potters were not only angry, they were so angry that they were almost about to explode!
One hundred taels of silver not only had to buy the kiln factory, but also sold himself to the other party, which could not even support his family.
"If anyone wants to die, we can fulfill you...... But think clearly, if you die, your family won't survive. The head catcher said coldly.
As soon as these words came out, the audience was silent again!
Many potters have given up their lives, but when they hear this, they are silent.
Maybe they are not afraid of death, but what about their families?
"I ...... Promise you!"
Lu Changgen was silent for a long time, lowered his head with difficulty, and made a hoarse decision: "I promise you!"
"It's really smart!" Master Xiao nodded, very satisfied.
"Please also let go of these craftsmen and the old village chief!" Lu Changgen didn't raise his head for a long time, he knew that he was ashamed of his ancestors and ancestors for making such a decision.
"Others can let it go, but this old man must die!"
Master Xiao pointed at the old village chief, his eyes were full of murderous intent, infinite hatred spread, and the whole world seemed to be cold, "If he hadn't brought that little rabbit cub surnamed Zhang into the city, my most beloved son would not have died! That Zhang Jiuxiao can escape, but he can't escape, I will let him live better than die, I will not even let his family go......"
"My lord, the village chief has nothing to do with the death of Xiao Gongzi...... Even if he does, he will not be guilty of death, and please be merciful!" Lu Changgen defended.
"Shut up!"
"My lord, we are willing to work for the lord, please forgive the old village chief. Lu Changgen insisted.
Master Xiao hated even more, staring at Lu Changgen, with inexplicable viciousness in his eyes: "If you say another word, I will arrest your wife and children and make them unable to live or die!"
"yes, hahaha-"
Lu Changgen was stunned for a long time, and suddenly laughed, the laughter was desolate, and he was extremely angry!
Again and again, I tolerated again and again, I thought I could protect everyone, but I didn't expect the other party to gain an inch.
This Master Xiao is simply a wolf whose head can't be fed, Lu Changgen's eyes were red, and he took out a dagger out of nowhere, and instantly stabbed it into the chest of Master Xiao.
"Go die, you dog official! Lu gave up his ancestral inheritance, sold the kiln factory to you, and humiliated everyone, and didn't want to live for a long time! Lao Tzu gave up this life, dragged you to the underworld, and died together-"
"Poof—"
He was very close to Master Xiao, but now he suddenly burst out, and the dagger was like a poisonous snake exploring the way, and Master Xiao couldn't react at all.
The dagger pierced deep into the chest with a cold light, reaching the handle!
Even Lu Changgen didn't expect that it would go so smoothly, and in a fit of rage, he really killed Master Xiao......
Not true-
The dagger didn't enter his chest, but there was no blood flowing out, Xiao Zhuji's eyes were cold, and he slapped out with one palm, slapping Lu Changgen several meters away.
"How dare you assassinate this official—"
Master Xiao gritted his teeth and pulled out the dagger, the wound contracted rapidly, and it recovered in the blink of an eye.
The innate aura erupted, a wave of qi exploded, and everyone seemed to be in the midst of a violent wind and waves, and they would collapse at any time!
There is a huge gap between ordinary people and innate powerhouses, and the innate masters alone are so suppressed that everyone can't breathe well, and they are terrified!
Master Xiao's eyes were boiling with murderous intent, and he strode forward and stepped on Lu Changgen's head!
If his strength is trampled on, Lu Changgen will definitely be bleeding from his head and killed on the spot!
"Poof—"
A roar shot through the air, and Master Xiao, who was in anger, was taken aback, and his body quickly flashed to the right.
"Bang!"
The sand and stones were splashing everywhere, and a round hole appeared where he had been standing, and the bottom was a stone the size of a fist.
A stone shot into the earth, no more than two feet deep, but the hole did not spread out—how powerful was that?
Even if it was Master Xiao, this innate powerhouse, gasped!
A figure rushed out of the crowd, fell to Lu Changgen's side, and helped him up with force.
When Lu Changgen saw someone coming, he was angry and anxious, pushed him away, and yelled, "Why are you back?
"Master, I'm not leaving!"
The person who came was none other than Zhang Jiuxiao.
"Little brute, are you Zhang Jiuxiao?" Master Xiao understood, and hatred was rife.
"Old thing!" Zhang Jiuxiao didn't give in at all.
Master Xiao didn't say a word when he heard this, his body was violent, and a fist slammed towards Zhang Jiuxiao.
A strong person in the middle of the congenital stage, how powerful is a punch that condenses momentum, it can almost collapse a wooden building!
With momentum alone, you can blow people away!
However, Zhang Jiuxiao took a deep breath, and also punched out, the wind and thunder appeared, and the momentum was condensed at the tip of the fist!
"Bang!"
There was a thunderclap on the flat ground, and the momentum of the explosion rolled wildly, and a large number of people around were shaken away!
Zhang Jiuxiao stepped back four or five steps in a row, his face flushed, and he almost vomited blood; Master Xiao couldn't stabilize his body and took three steps back!
It can be seen that Zhang Jiuxiao is slightly inferior to Xiao Master Book in terms of strength!
"This can't be!" Master Xiao looked at his fist in disbelief in a daze, "It's just the peak of the mortal realm, you can actually take my punch without being hurt at all......"
"Those who are inherently strong are nothing more than that-" Zhang Jiuxiao's confidence greatly increased.
"Little brute, don't be arrogant! If you can take a punch from this seat, you think you are very strong?" Master Xiao came back to his senses and stared at Zhang Jiuxiao with murderous eyes, "You don't know how powerful the innate strong will be! Dare to kill my most distressed son, I won't let you die easily...... I'm going to make you regret being alive!"
"Although I don't need to defend myself, I still have to say it in a dignified manner - the surnamed Xiao insulted me first, framed me as a murderer, and threatened me with the life of the old village chief, and wanted to kill me. He took the blame for killing him. Zhang Jiuxiao said.
"Shut up, what are you, since my son is going to kill you, then you have a damn reason!" Xiao Shoushu shouted irrationally.
"Could it be that he can only kill me, and I can't resist yet?"
"That's right, if my son wants you to die, you deserve to die...... Don't think about running away, if you dare to escape, all the people who have a relationship with you will die. ”
Master Xiao has lost his mind, although he has three daughters, he has such a son when he is old, and he has been doting on him since he was a child, which is the only bloodline of his Xiao family.
Zhang Jiuxiao shook his head and no longer opened his mouth to argue, the grudge between the two sides has been settled, and there is no possibility of reconciliation.
"Today, you have the privilege of seeing the true strength of this seat—"
Master Xiao had a hideous face, his eyes were full of red bloodshots, his big sleeves shook, and a wooden stick long with chopsticks fell out of his sleeve.
As soon as the stick hit the ground, it grew rapidly, reaching nearly two meters in the blink of an eye, turning into a strange-shaped vine crutch.
This rod is turquoise, strange shape, but faintly extremely mysterious, Zhang Jiuxiao's breath perceives, this strange wand is full of vitality.
"Kill—"
Master Xiao pointed the ground with a cane, and a wave of qi burst from the tip of the cane, and he saw that the ground was constantly trembling, as if there was an earth dragon winding in it.
Zhang Jiuxiao was stunned for a moment, he felt a slight tightness under his feet, and when he looked down, he saw vines emerging from the ground, instantly wrapping up his feet and drilling towards him.
The vines were as weird as a strange snake, and their strength was amazing, and they strangled Zhang Jiuxiao a few times in an instant, almost strangling him out of breath.
The vine was no ordinary vine, and wooden thorns quickly grew on it, and the sharpest wooden thorns at the tips drilled into his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose.
