Chapter 118 The whole village goes up the mountain

“Village chief, the three families at the head of the village were all knocked unconscious. The two-year-old grandson of the Su family was hit hard and his brain was knocked out.”

“Village chief, there are a group of people tied to the big tree at the head of the village, and the county magistrate is also there.”

“It’s over, the Beimang people have invaded!” Someone in the crowd howled miserably.

As soon as the villagers heard that the Beimang people were coming, they ran home one after another.

Village Chief Tian Dayou looked at the empty village road in the blink of an eye, messy in the wind. He lowered his head and found that there were two people accompanying him, and he felt a little at ease.

“Youwen, Dahe, I’m lucky that you two are with me, you’re so loyal!”

The two men were lying on the ground with their legs weak from fear and were about to cry. They also wanted to run, but their legs were not up to par.

 “It was an accident, eh!”

Guard A picked up a roasted sweet potato and cut it into two pieces.

Zhang County Ling, who knows himself, does not know what the people in Xiyou Village are.

“I know that none of these people have participated in the construction, and no one knows the existence of that place.” Magistrate Zhang said without changing his expression.

 Because their identity documents were bought from refugees.

 Two big men gathered around the stove to warm themselves up, and the sweet smell of roasted sweet potatoes wafted out.

At midnight, a black shadow slid down from the window and merged into the dark night.

“Sir, are we going to join the Lord of Purple Castle?

"What's the matter? Let's talk about it!" Li Bai raised his eyes to look at the traitor and said calmly.

It can also add military merit to those who like to make achievements, but it harms other innocent people.

The sound of the clock was heard in the distance, and the shadow, hidden in the darkness, quietly touched the bank.

 “Boss, do you think something is wrong?”

He also has a sea ship called Daxia, don't you think it's strange? "

The group of six people who managed to enter Xingyuan Mansion after a lot of troubles stayed in two inns on the same street.

 If a bank wants to carry out large-scale construction, it should be done before opening, not after.

With a mouthful of hot sweet potato in his mouth, Guard A watched helplessly as his companion fell to the ground before he could swallow it.

 At dawn, Xiwang Village was ablaze.

What's the point of surviving alone at this age?

“Let’s stay away from Xiwang Village first. Such a big movement will definitely attract outsiders.

 A few candlelights leaked out from a row of undemolished houses.

“Master Zhang, are we really not going back to the county seat?” Jia Shuli asked again in a low voice.

It is estimated that the entire county will be labeled as a rebel, and it is inevitable to send a large army to surround the nest.

As the county magistrate, he will be the leader of the rebellion, and the eldest son's family will definitely be implicated.

 “That’s not possible!

These three types of people have no worries about finding a way out, so how can they sell themselves into slavery?

 Yesterday’s incident still surprised him.

 …

“Oh, we are so unlucky that we fell asleep during the night watch.” Guard B said as he took half of the sweet potato.

“However, the young master finally hired these three types of people and took their families on board the ship.

“Xiao Wu, you know nothing!

Every household in the village was carefully investigated by them, and nothing unusual was found.

“Yes, we are grasshoppers on the same rope now. If something happens, we can hand over the county magistrate to block him.” Tian Dayou said with clear eyes.

“But what about the family? Aren’t they going to die if they go back?”

 After crossing this mountain, I will discuss with Tian Dayou about the people of Xin'an County. "

With so many people, I’m afraid people won’t agree! These people are not a good person. " Jia Shuli, who was pretending to be sorting his shoes, reminded him in a low voice.

I have thought about the word Daxia several times in my mind, but I didn’t find anything special about it.

Unless his head is hung at the gate of Xin'an County by this group of people, the charge of rebellion can be cleared.

 …

Magistrate Zhang, whose robe was tucked around his waist, was torn into strips and flew away in the wind.

 “Did you buy it?”

 But no one knows where Daxia Castle is, let alone what it looks like. "

 A person with a good reputation who sells himself into slavery will have no chance of taking any scientific examinations for the rest of his life, let alone becoming an official.

 It was agreed that the six people who would meet at Juyou Tea House every three days would sit in a private room and report the news they had learned to the person in charge. "Boss, when I was at the gambling house yesterday, I heard a strange thing." Luo Hao said mysteriously.

A group of villagers supporting the elderly and the young took all their belongings and headed into the mountains without looking back.

 “Damn it, we’re the ones on night watch every time!”

 The matter of Li Bai looking for someone was also known to Ma Jingyuan and others.

 But both of them wisely did not say anything.

“You don’t have to worry about it, I’ll go there myself.

On the way to Xingyuan Mansion, the six of them once entered a place called Daxia Village.

 Those who have scars on their faces or have bad looks cannot serve as officials in the court. This is clearly stipulated in the law. "Luo Hao explained.

Some of them carried familiar broadswords on their backs, and some were leading picked-up horses with several bags of grain on their backs.

Li Bai's heart moved, but there was no change on his face, so he asked.

The black cotton wool was exposed, and Magistrate Zhang had to stuff it back in. This was his only cotton coat.

No matter what these people’s intentions are, killing a small group of officers and soldiers is definitely a capital crime.

“Hehe, the boss must be interested in this matter.

Ma Weiyuan and Ping Shiyi carefully investigated everything related to Daxia Fort. "

"Boss, Qiantong Bank is doing a lot of construction, and even the roofs are made of bluestone slabs." Ping Shiyi said.

  The group of six people who obtained the new identity documents have learned about the affairs of Xiaxiang County from the refugees who escaped.

The two of them stared at each other with cross-eyed eyes, refusing to give in to each other.

This bank was only opened five years ago, so how could it possibly carry out extensive construction work? "

“I can’t go back, they killed the officers and soldiers, and we were witnesses.

“Isn’t it normal for banks to use bluestone slabs for their roofs?” Qu Jin Wudao, who likes to argue with Ping Shiyi.

 Zhang Siyuan was in a dilemma. He was momentarily confused and could only follow the crowd and walk slowly into the mountains.

 It is better for others to die than for oneself to die. Who wants to die if he can live?

 Magistrate Zhang, knowing that there was no turning back, had no intention of returning to Xin'an County to take up a job. He might as well just become a villager in the mountains.

 Xingyuan Mansion.

 There is death on both sides, so what can we do if we go back? It is better to avoid the limelight for a while. "

Li Bai nodded and his eyes fell on the other two people who did not report.

“The county magistrate is more knowledgeable than us and can definitely point us to a way out.”

 When he entered Xingyuan Mansion, he spared no effort to inquire about strange things, hoping to help him find the person he was looking for as soon as possible.

Jia Shuli's face wrinkled up with worry, and he was accused of rebellion and was about to kill all nine tribes.

 “Stand outside the door, there will be a noise when we meet.” Ma Weiyuan said with a headache.

It is said that there was a castle owner who called himself Daxia Castle and came to Yaxing to buy scholars, doctors and martial arts masters.

 …

 Fortunately, I put it on as soon as it got cold, otherwise I wouldn't be able to withstand the coldness in the mountains.

"Village chief, what should I do, the county magistrate?" Yan Dayou asked with his eyes turned.

 I don’t know whether I should swallow or spit out the sweet potato in my mouth.

 He looked at the man in black who appeared in front of him at some unknown moment in a daze.
