Chapter 13 Spoiler is of course a slap in the face
"Lin Juren, he left, he went out of the city in advance," the county lieutenant didn't know what happened before he arrived, but when the four assassins were all escorted by the adult's friends, he saw Liang Zhixian asking Lin Ju's whereabouts, and said indifferently, "There are few people in the county, and there is an entourage of Lin Juren who is the leader of the camp in Shanglindu Township, so you shouldn't be afraid of the assassins when you go out of the city." โ
"Why did you let Lin Juren go?" Liang Zuoren hurriedly stamped his feet, "The assassin pretended to be a porter or Lin Juren saw through it first, why did you let Lin Juren go?" "It's better to go, otherwise it's really a little difficult to say thank you to Lin Lian.
"That Lin family kid just now is a lifter?" The middle-aged scribe asked.
"This person in the township test is new," Liang Zuoren said, "The county all said that he was a sour and rotten scholar, but I didn't expect to receive his help today......
"Ah, he's the one you said was the man who survived the robbery in Baisha County?" The middle-aged scribe was surprised and said, "Looking at his appearance, he doesn't look like a sour scholar, but I want to find him to thank him in person for saving his life." โ
The middle-aged scribe knew in his heart that the "arrogant" Lin Juren was not just a helping hand to them: the four assassins had a very careful plan, making provocative remarks and chasing, and now they were trying to lure away his three guards, so that the other three could take out their weapons and assassinate, if Lin Ju hadn't seen through them and blocked them, maybe they would have to succeed to these four assassins.
wanted to see through the understatement, Liang Zuoren was a little embarrassed. The son of a middle-aged scribe, the young man, said: "At the moment, it is important to search for the assassin's comrades, and besides, we and the Lin family can't be counted as a life ......" He took a few punches and kicks, a handsome face was swollen at this time, the assassin who was chasing him did not have a blade in his hand at that time, and it was very physically and time-consuming to kill a person with his bare hands in this era, he rescued the guards in time, and took a few punches, but there was no big problem. Seeing his sister thinking thoughtfully, the young man pushed her shoulder: "What are you thinking?" โ
"Ah," the girl in the male suit seemed to be easily frightened, and gave a light push, but she cried out in fright, and Orr realized that she had overreacted, and whispered with a red face, "It's nothing, my heart is still pounding." "I put my hand on my chest, and it hurt a little when I scratched the man.
************************
When they went out of the city, there was a team of soldiers at the gate of the city who were strictly checking the merchant travelers, but Lin Tie did not suffer any interrogation, and went out of the city in a donkey cart.
"I really didn't expect to meet the assassins - if we had been polite to those two watchdogs before we entered the store, we might have been the guests of the magistrate." The so-called donkey cart is just a flatbed trailer on the donkey, Chen Enze and Zhao Hu sat in front of them to learn to drive the donkey, and also read about the tea hotel.
"Is that a good thing? Can you still enter the store if you are polite to them? Zhao Hu whipped the donkey, turned around and asked Lin Bin, "What do you say about the guests of Liang Zuoren in Zhixian County and the Seventh Lady?" He remembered that the Assassin was sitting there slandering the Seven Ladies before the young man rushed out in a fit of rage.
The donkey cart was covered with a layer of hay, and Lin Tie didn't say anything, lying on the hay, his hands resting on the back of his head and looking at the blue sky floating in a leisurely white sky, he was also thinking in his heart who the middle-aged scribe was, and when he heard Zhao Hu ask, he replied casually: "Who knows, I met the Seventh Lady another day and asked." Thinking that since they have a good relationship with the Gu family, there will always be a chance to meet in the future, and asked Zhao Hu, "You already know that Zhou Ye is a Huaishang Drill Forest Leopard, and you are willing to go to Jiangning with me?" โ
Zhou Pu sat in the back of the car, humming a slang tune in his mouth, and his feet swinged.
Zhao Hu sat in front of him and muttered for a moment: "Xiucai, you often say that black and white faint in this world, officials are like bandits, and thieves are also beneficial, I also heard about Zhou Ye's deeds when I was in the township camp, and I can admire it tightly - besides, Zhou Ye also saved Xiucai's life, how can I be so ignorant?" โ
Zhao Hu said this, but Tiexin followed him all the way to the black, Lin Jian smiled, sat up with his knees crossed, and said to Zhao Hu: "I encountered robbers in Baisha County, but I really interpreted the four 'officials and murderers like bandits' vividly, and the grace is not Zhou Ye's nephew, nor is it surnamed Fu, he was originally a son of the Chen family, a merchant in Chongzhou, and he was robbed by pirates ashore as a meat ticket in the county ten months ago. Jiangdong Xuanfu envoy declared to the outside world that the Chongzhou County school robbery and the Baisha County robbery were done by the East pirates and the Dongting water thieves, which was Jiangdong Xuanfu envoy to reduce the responsibility for the erosion of Haijiang and coastal defense, and to divide the responsibility between Huguang and Huguang, but in fact, it was the same shareholder pirates...... "Lin Lian briefly told Zhao Hu all kinds of things that had happened in the past ten months, in order to prevent Zhao Hu from feeling too abrupt, he pushed a lot of credit to Fu Qinghe's head, and Zhou Pu only thought that Lin Lian was humble by nature.
"......" Where did Zhao Hu think that Lin Tie's encounter in this month would be so bizarre and tortuous, he almost drove the donkey cart into the ditch, stopped on the side of the road with the reins, and looked at Lin Tie with round eyes.
"Now, except for Enze by my side, everyone else has taken refuge at sea with Fu Ye and Zhou Ye's brothers - maybe I will report the matter to the company, and I can go back to Shanglindu to enjoy the wealth of the rest of my life, but the young people's families will be in danger, and the East China Sea will also add a huge murderer - how can I bear to stand by and watch?" Lin Jian asked.
"Now that I know about this, you have no reason to stop me from going to Jiangning with you." Zhao Hu only said this.
Lin Tie put his hand on his shoulder, pressed it hard, and didn't say anything more. Zhao Hu's temperament seems to be rough, but in fact he is chivalrous and courageous, if the secret flow of Ma Kou is known to the government, it will be a prisoner of exile, if it is replaced by Lin Jingchang, although he will not go to the government to inform, most of them will not dare to follow him to Jiangning.
Under the sunset, the donkey cart slows down, back to Shanglindu, the twilight is deep, the river outside the wharf is shrouded in a layer of faint twilight, the business travel that stops the boat and rests and the boat and the land post of the transit are endless, some shops have hung the lanterns out, the twilight is getting deeper, and the lanterns are gradually brighter.
Zhao saw Lin Tie and them coming back in a donkey cart at the head of the village, told him that the Seventh Lady would return to Huyan's hometown tomorrow, and said, "When you go to Jiangning, do you take a boat or a horse?" Today, there are a few horse dealers in Shanglindu, and I heard that those horses are really good......"
"Then go check it out." Lin Jian said, let the young Chen Ize drive the donkey cart back with Zhao, he and Zhou Pu and Zhao Hu went to the mule and horse market at the ferry, and told Zhao Hu on the way: "These horse dealers may be dressed as brothers in Huaishang, we made an appointment in Tinghu to break up - let's go over and have a look......"
Luoma City is at the south end of Shanglin Creek, next to the camp of Lindu Township. Crossing the mouth of the river by boat, the sky was dark, and I saw from a distance that several strings of three connected wind lanterns were floating in the evening sky in front of the camp gate of Shanglindu Township, and the mule and horse market in the west was darker, and the two lanterns were very inconspicuous in the thick twilight.
Horse traders are different from ordinary business travelers, that is, most of the hosts will sleep with their domestic servants next to the livestock pens in the mule and horse market after dark, and watch their mules and horses not be led away by others.
The mule and horse market is more lively than expected, before entering the wooden fence of the mule and horse market, they heard the noise inside, Lin Tie and they walked to the gate, and saw that the inner corners were dark and gloomy figures, the sound of quarrels continued, mixed with the sound of donkeys and horses, and they couldn't hear what was arguing inside.
Seeing someone coming out of it, Zhao Hu stopped the man and asked, "Dog, what's going on inside?" โ
"Brother Zhao Hu, is Xiucai also there?" The man saw that it was Lin Jian and Zhao Hu by the light, and stopped and explained, "Three outsiders have brought more than ten good horses to sellโyou also know that there is a shortage of good horses in the township camp. The stranger was only willing to sell five inferior horses, saying that the other horses were all arranged by the guests from Jiangning, and they wanted to be sent to Jiangning, but they refused to sell. Those horses are really eye-catching, there are a few horses, the teeth, bones, skin color are good, and it is suitable to leave for breeding......"
"What do you know about horses? Listen to what other people say," Zhao Hu interrupted the man and asked, "If you don't sell it, why are you arguing again?" โ
"Hehe," the man touched his head and smiled, "if they want to sell it, they have to buy it if they don't want to buy it." Besides, the horse is so good, I just don't understand the horse, listening to the horse's neck neighing crisply, I also know that it is a good horse, and the second son can understand it better. The second son asked the three outsiders to bargain, and he was willing to increase the price by another 30%. What do you say, people travel thousands of miles to seek wealth, and the second son increases the price by 30%, and the three foreigners still don't agree, don't they know how to lift? The bones of these three aliens are really cheap, and they really don't let go, and the second son can't increase the price by sixty percent. The second son was confused, and walked away, Zhao Neng led some to block the three horse dealers inside, and today I want them to sell if they don't sell! โ
"What do you call cheap bones? What does it mean to be ignorant of lifting? Zhao Hu slapped the back of the man's head, "People don't break their promises for money, in your eyes, they will become cheap bones and don't know how to lift!" โ
Zhao Hu still had some prestige in Shanglindu, and the man covered the back of his head that was fanned with pain, and said with a sneer: "Aren't they foreigners?" Who are you bullying if you don't bully them these days? He asked Lin Tie flatteringly, "Master Xiucai, do you think this is the reason?" โ
Lin Jian remained silent, and only said, "Go in and have a look." He also knew that he heard the change in what others called him, and others used to call him "Xiucai", but this time when he came back to the township, he either called him a master, even if he was familiar with him in the past, he would call him "Xiucai".
The second son, Lin Xuzong, was not in the mule and horse market, it was Zhao Neng who led more than 20 people in the township camp to block the three outsiders inside, Lin Lian walked over, and saw Zhao Neng grabbing the collar of a foreigner and shouting loudly: "Since you don't sell horses, but you are brought into the mule and horse market, it is good to be a person in Lin Du?" But it was to provoke these outsiders to do it first, so that they could have a better mouth.
Lin Lian didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, squeezed into the crowd, grabbed Zhao Neng's neckline, and slapped it over: "You kid is here, I've been looking for you for a long time, you and I forgot about the affairs of Baisha County." This slap was loud and heavy, and it directly blinded Zhao Neng, his eyes were full of stars, and his ears were buzzing.
