The Second Master of the Iron-blooded Lian of the Red Chamber

The villagers were in a commotion again, and finally a village chief named Luo Cheng from Niwan Village outside Gusu City was elected to speak out.Luo Cheng is a boy, he is considered a scholar in the village.

Luo Chengtuan thanked the villagers who believed in him, and then walked up to Jia Lian and cupped his hands and said, "The villain Luo Cheng is a villager in Niwan Village outside Gusu City. He is loved by all the villagers and recommended to speak out. This young man doesn't know Who is in Master Lin's house, and is the matter in Master Lin's house in charge?"

Jia Lian said: "Master Lin is my uncle, and I am his nephew. I just went to the south of the Yangtze River to play occasionally, and borrowed from Uncle Lin's house. Uncle Lin's private property, I have no control over it, and neither can anyone else." Jia Lian This is a coincidence, the grain in the old Lin family's house is privately owned, he does not know how to release grain, and others are not allowed to release grain.

Luo Cheng was able to pass the childbirth test and has prestige among the villagers. Naturally, he is a man of the world. Jia Lian could understand what he said. Ten of us have the guts, and no one dares to ask for help at the official's mansion? Since last month, Mr. Lin has been buying grain and pulling it into the house by cart after cart. Many villagers have seen it. Now we have nowhere to go, so we have to come here Borrow some to plant, and after the autumn harvest, the repayment will be doubled, and no one dares to deny it."

As the sky was getting brighter, Jia Lian glanced at Luo Cheng, and saw that he was quite tall, about forty or fifty years old, probably also worked in the fields, his skin was tanned, and he looked energetic.

Jia Lian frowned and said, "I heard that the old man speaks politely. I think he is a sensible person. Not to mention whether or not my uncle has any surplus food in his hand, and how much. Just say that today everyone went to my uncle's house to beg for food, and tomorrow he will come to ask for food. Come on, no one's food is inexhaustible, so the boy cannot agree to the old gentleman's request."

As soon as Jia Lian said this, an old woman in the crowd burst into tears: "This is killing people, there is no way out left and right, I might as well die in front of Lord Lin's gate, and let others know How did Mr. Lin, who praised him so much, do nothing but die."

This voice naturally caused commotion among the crowd.Jia Lian looked in the direction of the old woman and kept it in his heart.Jia Lian also did not stop the crowd from making noise. After a while, a man said: "Everyone be quiet, and let Village Chief Luo continue to negotiate with this young master. Mr. Lin has always been the master of the people, and his official voice is very good, presumably Cherish your reputation. This young master is a guest of Mr. Lin’s house, so he must have no choice but to ask Mr. Lin to come out and speak.”

The noise of the crowd died down, and it was Luo Cheng who came forward to speak again.Luo Cheng was quite polite, he cupped his hands to Jia Lian and said, "The villagers' words just now are reasonable. The young master is a guest of Mr. Lin's house, so it is appropriate to invite Mr. Lin to come out and speak."

Jia Lian gave Guan Qishou a wink, and Guan Qishou also focused on the crowd.

All the politeness and restraint before, and the recommendation of highly respected people to negotiate, are all for the moment.Now someone has already started talking to Lin Ruhai in the old house, and when the crowd gets excited, it may cause looting.

Sitting on the roof, Wei Jiu has a wide view and pays attention to the crowd. Since someone instigated today's incident, it must not be good. To capture the thief and the king, the instigator must be caught.

"Master Lin, please come out and speak!" The crowd shouted again, louder and louder.

Lin Fu and the family members of the Lin family were terrified. Lin Fu walked around the old house and explained that the servants who were in charge everywhere could not leave the yard or go out of the fence. , jumped down.In order to prevent the villagers from using guns to attack, people within the wall immediately withdrew the guns.

It was already dawn, and a man with triangular eyes in the crowd said: "It's weird, if the Lin family has a clear conscience, why don't they leave the door, but want to fuck? Could it be that Mr. Lin is really in the mansion, but deliberately avoids it? Let a kid come out and fool us."

This sentence immediately caused a commotion in the crowd, and there was another uproar.

Lin Fu hurriedly stepped forward and clasped his fists and said, "Fellow townsmen, fellow townspeople, there is no evidence and no evidence, so we can't talk nonsense. Our master is in Yangzhou as a salt censor. How can we go away? It's not a festival or celebration, how can our master In Suzhou."

The triangular-eyed man said again: "I don't believe this, Mr. Lin is not here, this young master is not going to Yangzhou when he is a guest in the south of the Yangtze River, what is he doing in Suzhou?"

Jia Lian looked like a boy and a half. After hearing this, the villagers naturally felt that it was reasonable, and they also asked questions.

Lin Fu explained again, saying that our young master came to Jiangnan for the first time and was willing to take a look around. He heard that Suzhou and Hangzhou had beautiful scenery, so he came here, and he will go to Jinling for a trip in a few days.But once the people are incited, it is not so easy to calm down. No matter what Lin Fu said, he was quickly refuted, and his voice was drowned in all kinds of doubts.

When everyone's suspicions were stirred up, even if Lin Fu broke his lips, there was only one result. No matter what you said, we wouldn't believe it.

Lin Fu and the others became more and more rigid. Wei Jiu, Jia Lian and Guan Qishou were always looking for the instigator in the crowd.

Jia Lian just felt a little strange, why every time the triangular-eyed man jumped out to refute Lin Fu and angered the villagers, he would tilt his head first, as if he was listening to someone's instructions.There are no radios these days. If someone makes a move on the triangular eye, the person who made the move should be in the crowd, but Jia Lian looked around the triangular eye and found no suspicious person.

Jia Lian frowned slightly, and still let Lin Fu deal with the crowd, while he observed from the sidelines.

"Master Lin loves the people like a son, and the official voice is very good, I'm afraid it's just pretending. As the saying goes, the government and businessmen colluded. This Lord Lin started buying food half a month in advance. It didn't take long for profiteers to trick the big guy into buying food. The grains were exchanged, Mr. Lin hoarded them, and the price of grains must be rising. It is not impossible to take the opportunity to seize everyone's fields. If Mr. Lin made a condition to let the big guys sell the land for him in exchange for grains, would everyone trade it for their lives? Change?" Xu Shi talked for a long time, and Triangle Eyes suddenly shouted angrily in the crowd.

These words instigated the already very excited crowd, and immediately the crowd became excited.

Since ancient times, there have been countless cases of collusion between government and businessmen. Who among the common people has not heard one or two things from their ancestors?The key is that the words of the triangle eye have nose and eyes. Many people reckon that if they sell their land, they will only be tenants in the future.However, the tenants can survive anyway, and they still can't find food to plant in the field. Seeing that the family's rations are about to run out, I'm afraid they won't be able to survive this winter. Given the expediency of both sides, it is hard for farmers who really rely on the land to make a living.

At this moment, a black-faced man shouted: "I am willing to exchange the land for grain seeds, as long as Mr. Lin gives the grain seeds, let me continue to plant my previous land, and if I don't lease it to others, I will exchange the land! Master Lin, come out, let's go to the government to make a written statement, at least give us a few catties of grain seeds to let us get through this year! You took the land, collected the rent at the market price, and leased the land to me! "

Jia Lian raised his eyebrows, and carefully scrutinized the dark-faced man, wondering for a moment whether he was a thief who deliberately sang with triangular eyes and incited the villagers, or an upright man who really wanted to get through the difficulties in front of him.But no matter what, as soon as the black-faced man said this, many villagers believed that Lin Ruhai was stockpiling grain in advance and deliberately forcing everyone to sell the land.

Sure enough, after hearing this, while the villagers were excited, some people gritted their teeth and wanted to sell the land, and some burst into tears.The land is the lifeblood of farmers, and using the land to incite people shows that their hearts can be punished.

At this moment, the triangular-eyed man shouted again: "What do you beg them to do? These are dog officials who cannibalize people and don't spit out bones. They only know how to wag their tails at dog officials. How can they care about us ordinary people? The dog official wants to force us to death, so why don't we smash his gate, rob him of food, and see what he can do? At worst, he will be arrested and sent to the government, beheaded or killed, I'm afraid the taste will be worse than slowly starving to death Feel better."

It has to be said that the instigators still have a step-by-step strategy. Originally, it was a matter of borrowing food from the common people, but now they guide Cheng Lin Ruhai to collude with profiteers step by step, and the officials force the people to rebel.But ordinary people have a herd mentality, and they can't calm down for a while.

Seeing the crowd frantically rushing towards the gate of Lin's house, Wei Jiu suddenly descended from the sky and went straight to the triangular eyes that had been inciting everyone in the crowd.

The triangular eyes were a bit of a skill, because he was guilty of being a thief and hiding in the crowd, Jia Lian found that he would deliberately move his place every time he finished shouting a sentence.Unexpectedly, there was an expert lurking in the old house of the Lin family, but he was still caught.Wei Jiu looked like a ghost, covered by a black mirror, adding to the mystery. There was a flash of cold light, the entire neck of the triangular eye was cut off, and his head flew into the sky.

More and more people surrounded the Lin family's house, and some villagers rushed here with dustpan bags.Wei Jiu could see more clearly than Jia Lian and the others in Gaochuo. Apart from the triangular eyes, several other people in the crowd also had abnormalities.But Wei Jiu always felt that he hadn't caught the mastermind, it's just that now that the people started attacking the Lin family's gate, Wei Jiu couldn't help but look for him again.

The person closest to the triangular eye was covered in blood. "Dead!"

Wei Jiu didn't stop, he dodged left and right in the crowd, and killed another person, the one who echoed the triangular-eyed person loudly just now.

Seeing the villagers rushing towards Lin's house, the instigators quietly backed away from him.Because someone died in the crowd, the timid villagers became frightened and ran away in all directions; some got angry and became more impulsive, rushing to the gate of Lin's house regardless.

Behind the gate of the Lin family, Jia Lian had already made arrangements yesterday, and reinforced the gate of the Lin family long ago, and used huge wooden stakes to block it.These villagers didn't have any special siege weapons either. Jia Lian guessed that the Lin family's family members should be able to resist for a while, so he winked at Guan Qishou and rushed into the crowd.

Just now, every time the triangular eyes opened his mouth, he would turn his body sideways. Although Jia Lian didn't see clearly who was ordering him, he knew that the mastermind was nearby.There are too many people, and in the panic, it is inevitable that there will be pushing, shoving and trampling. Guan Qishou uses a whip, and whenever he sees that someone is about to fall, he will raise the whip to surround the person and stabilize him. Among the dense crowd, the whip fell down. It is more effective than hard weapons such as swords.

Yesterday, Jia Lian and several others made predictions and corresponding arrangements for what would happen today.Today's development did not exceed the expectations of several people. Wei Jiu was in charge of killing the thieves who deliberately incited in the crowd, and Guan Qishou was in charge of rescuing the people who fell down. While protecting the food, try to minimize the loss as much as possible.

Originally, Jia Lian was supposed to be on the sidelines, but now more and more people are attacking the gate, most of them are ordinary people. Jia Lian can't draw his sword to fight back, and it is safer to rush into the crowd.

Jia Lian scanned the crowd vigilantly, avoiding the rampaging villagers from time to time.Suddenly, Jia Lian saw a child.

The child's behavior was very strange. He neither rushed towards the gate nor ran to the outside, but specifically went to places where there were many people.Not only that, but the child's foot was very stable. There were so many people, and many of them were very strong and powerful peasants, the child would not be knocked down.Not only that, Jia Lian also found that the child avoided Wei Jiu's direction intentionally or unintentionally.

it's him!

No wonder he couldn't see the person who advised the triangular eyes just now, it turned out to be this little Douding.

Jia Lian turned around in the crowd and walked towards the child like a fish.The little kid walked steadily, and drilled fast, looming in the crowd, and would be lost if he was not careful.Fortunately, the child seemed to be very afraid of Wei Jiu, and he was concentrating on avoiding Wei Jiu. Now that there were so many people, he didn't notice Jia Lian in the crowd.

Jia Lian was paying attention to dodge so that the child would not see him, and at the same time approached him quickly.Seeing that there were less than five feet left, Jia Lian pulled out the dagger in his boot and stabbed the child in the back.

Not only was the child quick to react, but his intuition was also very keen. Even in a dense crowd, he could sense a sneak attack and turned around quickly.

When the man turned around and met Jia Lian, Jia Lian immediately understood what kind of child this was, he was clearly a dwarf dressed as a child.

The dwarf was taken aback when he saw the dagger in Jia Lian's hand, and then quickly slapped Jia Lian.

Wei Jiu had already killed the four instigators he recognized. At this moment, he saw Jia Lian fighting a child.Wei Jiu stretched out his body and rushed over, and after a short dodge, he hung the dagger above the dwarf's head.

The dwarf knew Wei Jiu's strength, and shouted loudly: "Kill me, help me, don't kill me!" Although the dwarf looked no longer young, his voice sounded like a schoolboy's, and suddenly he thought it was a child .

When everyone saw the man in black who cut off the head to the sky as soon as he made a move, they had already dispersed. At this moment, Jia Lian's surroundings were quite empty.I saw Jia Lian holding a narrow back knife that was still in its sheath, and a dagger that was shining coldly in his hand. The dagger of the murderous man in black was hanging over the head of a child; scream.

When everyone saw this situation, no one was angry, and someone immediately reprimanded him loudly.Jia Lian knew that the dwarf was cunning, so he deliberately covered his face to make people think that Jia Lian and others wanted to kill a child.But Jia Lian can't control so much when using extreme methods at extreme times. He holds a narrow back knife in his left hand in a defensive posture, and raises a dagger in his right hand to stab.

Wei Jiu originally wanted to save his life, but saw that the dwarf was so cunning, so he didn't want to pester him anymore, and stabbed down with the dagger.At the critical moment, the dwarf shortened his body, took out a few Thunderbolt bombs, and threw them towards the dense crowd.

Wei Jiuyi frowned, and the dagger followed like a shadow on the dwarf's hand. With one swipe, he cut off the dwarf's tricky hand at the wrist. .

There were several loud bangs, accompanied by the dwarf's screams, and the thunderbolt exploded in mid-air, emitting a dazzling light even in daylight.Although those few thunderbolts were small in size, they were not small in power. If they exploded among the crowd, they would definitely cause casualties.

Wei Jiu didn't show mercy because the dwarf was injured, but made a decisive decision and cut the dwarf's throat with a dagger.

The dwarf's screams came to an abrupt end, and even the bellows-like whoo-hoo sound after the trachea was cut was covered by the sound of thunder and fire bombs exploding.

Just now Wei Jiu killed four people in a row, and at this moment another thunder bomb exploded in mid-air, finally shaking the crowd who was a bit out of control.The villagers who were close to Jia Lian and others also saw clearly that the killed 'child' was not a real child, but a dwarf.

But more villagers didn't know what happened inside, and someone shouted: "Run away!" Some people in the crowd said that they were out of conscience, using guns to kill unarmed people, etc., but people scattered and fled in all directions .

This scene was calmed down after killing one to warn others, but the reputation of the Lin family became more and more evil.Collusion between government and businessmen, hoarding, and massacre of unarmed people. At the beginning, it was rumored that a dozen people were killed, and later dozens, hundreds of people, the more rumors became the more absurd.But no matter how dark it is, the reason why the Lin family's old house has been turned into a purgatory is because no one came forward to ask for food.

Because someone died, the prefect of Suzhou naturally wanted to come to question him.But because Wei Jiu covered his face with a black scarf, no one saw what the murderer looked like, so the government officials searched the old house of the Lin family, but they couldn't find the murderer, so they asked a painter to draw a portrait and put it on the list to arrest him.

None of the villagers knew Wei Jiu's exact appearance, they just described the murderer as evil and evil, and when the portrait of the murderer was posted, Jia Lian only felt that the person in the portrait was more fierce than Zhong Kui, and pasting it on the door could ward off evil spirits.

But he said that he had finally dealt with the villagers that day, and when everyone returned to the old house, Lin Fu was so frightened that his face turned pale: "Thanks to the second master Lian this time, what should we do if these people come back in the future? They are all poor people, and there can't be many." Hurt."

Jia Lian shook his head and said, "They won't come. Uncle Fu, let's prepare some meals first."

After Lin Fu left, Jia Lian said to Wei Jiu, "Mr. Wei, how about we make a plan?"

Wei Jiu nodded slightly to Jia Lian, in agreement.Jia Lian continued: "Let's go out later to find a large business house with the mark of the Bone Transformation Order, and sneak in today to check whether there is food, and directly kill people and rob food."

As soon as Jia Lian finished speaking, Wei Jiu immediately understood Jia Lian's meaning: The Lin family suffered a siege today. Although the villagers did not smash or loot, everyone in the Lin family must have lingering fears.According to common sense, my party should be strictly guarded in the Lin family. At this time, my party will do the opposite, and sneak attacking the other party may have a miraculous effect.

Wei Jiu nodded, and Jia Lian, Wei Jiu and Guan Qishou went back to the house for a hasty meal, and asked the servants of the Lin family which commercial firms had changed the villagers' grain, and explained the defensive arrangements of the house.The three of them changed their clothes and disguised themselves before leaving the old house of the Lin family.

In Yumi Township in the south of the Yangtze River, the land along the Taihu Lake is the most fertile. There is more than one grain store that has exchanged villagers' grain for food.Jia Lian and others found the largest family and sneaked in that night. They saw a few young men carrying a bucket of things each. Jia Lian and the others were shocked.

Wei Jiu shot into the lightning, killing the two of them in an instant.Jia Lian had already glimpsed the method of Yishan Saber, although it was not enough to compete with first-class masters, but these minions pretending to be second-hands were not Jia Lian's opponents. One of them only took Jia Lian for three rounds, and then he was beheaded by Jia Lian. Under the knife.

Wei Jiu was able to seal his throat with a dagger, but Jia Lian didn't have this ability for the time being. The person killed by Jia Lian screamed, and immediately a voice full of anger asked: "Niu Er, what's the matter, the ghost is screaming!" ?”

While asking, he ran quickly holding a torch.

In the blink of an eye, the remaining two junior fire oil barrels didn't come to remember to put them down, and they died in the hands of Wei Jiu and Guan Qi respectively.

One of the mistresses didn't know whether it was bravery or dying, and he kicked over a bucket of kerosene even though he had fallen to the ground.

All of a sudden, fire oil flowed all over the floor.Jia Lian and the others quickly jumped away.All oils and fats are bound to slip when stepped on. For those who practice martial arts, the instability of the foot plate is like being bound.

Seeing that Jia Lian and the others were not easy to get along with, the man who looked like the shopkeeper threw the torch in his hand, only to hear the torch shoot towards the kerosene on the ground with a strong wind.

As long as the kerosene reaches a spark, it can burn into a sea of ​​flames in an instant. The grain seeds stored here are already dried, and they are also flammable, which is even more difficult to extinguish.Besides, the fire ignited by kerosene is different from other fires, and needs to be extinguished with mud and sand instead of splashing water.Where can I get so much sand to put out the fire in a short while?

At the critical moment, Guan Qi wrapped the whip in his hand, took the torch in his hand, and quickly raised it up, narrowly avoiding the kerosene on the ground.

At the same time, Jia Lian flew up, opened two sacks of grain, and sprinkled them on the fire oil.Although food is flammable, it is not as easy to catch fire as kerosene. Even after it is caught on fire, the fire will not burn out of control in an instant.At the beginning of ignition, the sparks on grain are at least easier to extinguish than those on kerosene.Although it is wasteful to cover fire oil with grain, it is better than turning the entire grain storehouse into ashes.

The shopkeeper knew Jia Lian's intentions at a glance. Seeing that Jia Lian was so calm at such a young age, he snorted coldly, raised his hand, and threw a few thunderbolts.

At this moment, Jia Lian didn't have enough grain to cover the kerosene. If he was hit by a thunderbolt, the kerosene might catch fire. At that time, let alone putting out the fire, even if he escaped slowly, he might die in the sea of ​​flames.

Thanks to Guan Qi's practice with the whip in one hand and the other to perfection, he swung the whip penetratingly, and sent a few thunderbolts flying towards the shopkeeper.

Seeing this situation, the shopkeeper was so frightened that he hurriedly dodged to avoid it.

Wei Jiu flew up, as if it had merged with the dagger in his hand, and after only a moment, he rushed to the shopkeeper.With a flick of his wrist, the shopkeeper hadn't seen how Wei Jiu made a move, and was already speechless.Amidst the whooping sound of the trachea being cut, he fell down with his eyes wide open.

After the Thunderbolt bomb was thrown, it would explode. Wei Jiuyi sealed the shopkeeper's throat with his dagger, and then jumped back, narrowly avoiding the explosion of several thunderbolts.After the Thunderbolt exploded, he went forward to pick up the shopkeeper, stripped off his clothes, and rushed towards the sparks that burst out from the Thunderbolt.

Because Jia Lian used five grains to cover the kerosene in time, the sparks were not covered with kerosene, but were quickly extinguished. Except for the few sacks of grain used to press the kerosene, which were broken, everything else was still usable.

The author has something to say: Sorry, this chapter was actually changed this morning, and I forgot to modify the title
