Chapter 1128 Chapter [-] Little scholar
On the afternoon of August [-]th, everyone was talking about Wufang Lei being dismissed by the Da Guangming leader, and the people around her were filled with righteous indignation and killing intent, and she felt that things were getting out of control.
Did not sleep well at night.
In the early hours of the morning, the roaring sounded, and the people in the broken yard and the broken house shouted one by one. Some picked up spears and knives, and some lit torches. She followed suit and got up tremblingly. Wearing a few ragged clothes, I found a wooden stick and tried to show my courage.
Fortunately, Mrs. Huo waved her hand: "You guys stay at home and don't go out. Just take care of yourself."
Men and women with knives and guns gathered in the courtyard, and some people said: "Young scholar, don't go."
Aunt Huo's name is Huo Qinghua. She is a tall, middle-aged woman with scars on her face. It is said that she used to be pretty, but when the Jurchens came, she was caught. In order not to be insulted, she scratched her face. own face.Later, he joined the Fair Party and became a member of the "White Rakshasa" among the "Seven Kills", and he is now the helm of this dilapidated yard.
The FAIR Party is in disarray today.
In the entire Jiangnan land, some big and small forces with some big names will fly their own flags, but half of them are not true members of the Fair Party.For example, the "Seven Kills" under the command of "Yan Luo Wang" basically belong to the "Mayfly" department at the beginning. "White Raksha", "Murderer", and "Kamma", but in fact, due to the rapid development of the "King of Yama", there are many people who plant flags indiscriminately. It was absorbed casually.
Huo Qinghua's side belonged to the authentic "White Rakshasa", the dilapidated courtyard was in a mess, the people gathered were not many among the jumble of fish and dragons in Jiangning at this time, but the surrounding forces would give some face.
The so-called authentic "White Rakshasa" is a "professional" who cooperates with the "karma" system.Generally speaking, the fair party occupies a place, and the "King of Yama" presides over the arrest and conviction of people, usually the "karma" branch.
But "karma" set up a stage, and "Bai Luosha" sent someone to act as the victim, inciting the emotions of the people around, so as to kill the wealthy households under trial directly on the stage and divide up the property, so "Bai Luosha" In one branch, there are many beggars, women, and disabled people with miserable fates. These people have fierce personalities and extreme methods. Not afraid of death, very difficult.
"Little scholar" is Qu Longjun's nickname in this broken courtyard.
After the Chengdu Conference last year, a girl named Qu Longjun left Southwest.
Although she probably understands that the situation in Southwest China is the most peaceful now, in her heart, there is something wrong with her father's death in the Xiaocang River. Living in hiding in Chengdu, after all, if my father had a spirit in heaven, maybe he would still be a little unhappy, right?
During her entire growth period, the place she was most familiar with, after all, was in Jiangnan.
After Wen Shoubin's death, the property left behind was applied by that Long Xiaoxia and returned to her hands. In addition to silver taels, there are also several properties located in Jiangnan. As long as she gets any of them, it is actually enough for her. Weak women spend half their lives.
She followed the Huaxia Army's convoy out of the Southwest and learned some skills in closing accounts. In the face of Aunt Gu, the Huaxia Army team that went out to do business also taught her a lot of survival skills outside, so roughly After traveling with him for half a year, he finally left and headed towards Jiangnan.
She knew that her appearance was too weak and easy to bully, so she pretended to be a beggar most of the time along the way, and put a piece of dead skin on one side of her cheek as a camouflage, moving forward in a low-key manner .The skills she learned from the Huaxia military caravan saved her from some troubles, but sometimes she still couldn't avoid being noticed by other beggars. Fortunately, during the half a year of following the caravan, she learned some simple breathing methods , running every day, the speed of escape is not slow.
It was a lucky journey of two or three thousand miles without any danger, but the whole of Jiangnan has been killed by the fair party.
When she arrived in Jiangning more than two months ago, she already understood that the land deeds and house deeds that originally belonged to Wen Shoubin in her possession were probably insignificant by now.She still walked forward for a while, but before reaching Zhenjiang, she was about to turn back. When she was near Jiangning, the thief took away the money in her bag, and she had no choice but to change from acting as a beggar to a real beggar.
During this period, she was chased and beaten by beggars again, was blocked in the alleyway once, and when she could no longer escape, Qu Longjun took out his pocket knife to defend himself. Later, he was about to commit suicide when Huo Qinghua, who was passing by, saw her and rescued her. Came down and joined "Broken Yard".
Huo Qinghua said, the main reason is to appreciate her resoluteness when she committed suicide.
Most of the people gathered in the broken courtyard were people with extreme temperaments. Qu Longjun was very scared when he joined at the beginning, and many people tried to bully her, but they were stopped by Huo Qinghua.She tried to do odd jobs in this ruined courtyard, but the situation really improved after these people discovered that she could read and write.
There are five children in the broken yard, born in such an environment, there is not much discipline.Qu Longjun once tried to teach them how to read, and then Huo Qinghua asked her to help manage these matters, and brought some newsprint every day, and asked Qu Longjun to help read the above when everyone gathered together. Stories to relieve everyone's boredom.
In the courtyard of "Bai Luo Sha", there is not a single person who can read and write. Although the life is dirty, no one said to do anything for the children. After doing these things, she also found that although everyone didn't mention it, no one made things difficult for her under any circumstances.Later, she read newspapers every day, and among these people, she became a "little scholar".
Sometimes when everyone goes out to "hit big households", they will take her to see them, or when they come back, they will also bring her some smashed gold and silver utensils. Qu Longjun secretly hides them, preparing to have a good one day There is a reliable and reliable way, and then sneak out of here.
Although these people in the yard did not hurt her, Qu Longjun still felt disgusted and repelled by what they did, killing the whole family with all kinds of lies and deceit.Although there are many strange sayings among these people, such as "Although these people did not do these bad things, we can always kill those who do bad things by killing them", but such reasons cannot pass the book after all. Qu Longjun's measure here.
Of course, she didn't dare to directly refute such nonsense when other people talked about it with gusto.
After staying in the Southwest during that time, after experiencing the propaganda that women hold up half the sky, Qu Longjun originally had a good impression of the Fair Party, but now only confusion and fear remain.
Huo Qinghua sometimes talked about the changes in the fair party over the past year.
Although she is in the most radical faction of the Fairness Party, she still feels a little disdainful of the mixed fish and dragons these days.
For example, "White Rakshasa" was originally created in the early days of the Zhou and Shang Dynasties. Words can be said" and established.Their "scam" must be so perfect that no one will be able to detect that it is a fake. However, with the development of this year, the conviction of the "King of Yama" has gradually become an extremely common routine.
No matter how clumsy the accusation and performance on the stage are, the people in the audience don't believe it at all, they will pick up bricks, smash people to death, and then rob them.In this way, the performance of "White Rakshasa" became dispensable, and even after everyone smashed and robbed in the name of "King Yama", they simply put the scapegoat back here and said , Said that King Yama killed innocent people indiscriminately like this, and the reputation here will be ruined more and more.
This kind of thing is getting worse and worse, and Huo Qinghua and others don't know whether it is good or not, but occasionally she will lament that "the world is declining" and "people's hearts are not old", if all the "White Rakshasa" acted in a serious manner , people can't pick a mistake, so why are there so many people saying bad things about this place?
They consider themselves "craftsmen" who eat handicrafts, and even want to teach Qu Longjun these skills, but after seeing Qu Longjun's resistance to being on stage, they finally let her go.
Recently, the situation in Jiangning City has become increasingly tense, but the wealthy households have been killed long ago. Huo Qinghua and others are actually considering leaving, but such determination has not yet come down. In the early morning of August [-]th, this The clues of the fire merger have already appeared.Following the order of "Heavenly Killer" Wei Yanwen, thousands of swordsmen launched an attack on the territory of the "King of the Wheel", and everyone in the city, large and small, holding the banner of "King of Yama", also chose to take advantage of the opportunity. Make a move to grab the site.
As the authentic branch of the "White Rakshasa", even if there are not many people on the side of the broken yard, they cannot be left behind in this matter.
The crowd gathered together and went out, while those who stayed in the broken yard were mostly the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled.Qu Longjun hid in the darkness in the corner of the wall with a stick and watched nervously for a long time. She knew the price to be paid for this kind of fight.
Fortunately, what happened tonight was the revenge led by the "King of Yama" after all, before the counterattack from the "King of the Wheel" arrived, about an hour later, Huo Qinghua came back with people shouting and drinking , Several people were injured and needed to be bandaged, and a woman was seriously injured, with a broken hand, crying and howling endlessly.
Qu Longjun had learned how to bandage, and while treating wounds sensibly, he listened to what everyone said.It turned out that not long after the fight started here, "Long Xian" Fu Pingbo's law enforcement team arrived nearby and drove them back.A group of people did not occupy the remote place, cursing and saying that Fu Pingbo would die.But Qu Longjun heaved a sigh of relief, in this way, he finally had an explanation to his superiors.
It was getting closer to dawn, and it was the time when the darkness was at its thickest, and some fighting outside had weakened slightly, presumably the law enforcement team on the side of the "King of Fairness" was gradually calming down the situation.
Among the five major departments of the Fairness Party, the situation on the side of the "Fairness King" is slightly better. They have surrounded a small area in the northwest of the city. The territories of the "King of Equality" in the southeast are far away from each other, and they can be regarded as the two most prosperous areas in the city.But for people from other factions, the "King of Fairness" has many rules, is "superior", "no one is arrogant", and always sends law enforcement teams to tell others what to do. There are fewer opportunities to join the other factions than the other factions, so if you don't drag your family, there are not many people who want to join there recently.
If you choose to make short-term profits, ordinary people will follow the "King of Yama" Zhou Shang, and smash all the way. If you believe in religion, you can also choose Xu Zhaonan, who has great momentum and faith protection; Baofeng has a wide range of contacts and the most resources. He himself is targeting the demons in the Southwest, and he is extremely promising in the eyes of everyone. As for the "King of Heaven", he has strict military discipline and strong soldiers. Now that troubled times are coming, this is also the most direct one that can be relied on for a long time. Strength.
As for the King of Fairness, he is annoying, at least in the eyes of everyone in the broken courtyard, it is almost out of date, sooner or later, he must find a way to break open that place, and pull out those things that are rich and unkind, with eyes higher than the top "Fairness" "once.
In the atmosphere where everyone was cursing, the people who stayed here walked around to heal their wounds, and some people cooked meat porridge to beat teeth for those who went out to fight.The woman with the severed hand was placed in a room on the side of the courtyard, although it was treated healingly, it may not be ideal, and she was crying all the time.The crowd sat in the yard listening to the wailing sound, and said such and such things in their mouths for a while, and the sky gradually dawned.
"Little scholar." Wanyun, who was the most beautiful and quiet in the crowd, but actually the most ruthless, said, "Bring out a few newsprints from yesterday, and read something exciting for us to relieve our boredom."
"Oh, good." Qu Longjun nodded.
She usually reads newsprints before dinner in the afternoon. Yesterday, she was beaten because of the five-party beating, and everyone cursed for a long time, shouting for revenge, but she didn't read the few new newspapers. At this time, Qu Longjun took out the newspapers. , sit in front of everyone and begin to read.
The newsprint circulated on the Fair Party’s side does not record much news. Most of them are various stories from other places, legends of the green forest, and there are also scripts from the Southwest that are printed here again, and there are some vulgar jokes—anyway. They are the things people in the market love to watch. Qu Longjun read it for a while, everyone laughed, and someone said: "Read it louder, I can't hear you clearly."
Qu Longjun also read a little louder.
The reason why everyone felt "inaudible" was not that she didn't read loud enough, but that the wailing of the woman who had broken her hand on the side of the yard continued, and everyone had no choice but to listen here. Leaning forward and backward with laughter while reading the story.
After reading two newspapers in this way, and turning to the third one, the wailing in the side room gradually diminished, and sometimes some vague words were spoken, and those voices echoed in the morning wind.
"Mother..."
"I'm in pain..."
"My baby, sweetheart... ah..."
"I was wrong..."
"It hurts me to death...Mother...Father..."
The woman who lost her hand was over 40 years old, and her parents were already dead. These wailing voices were hoarse, and the last word "ah" in each sentence always took a long time to stop until the breath in her throat died. Down.Qu Longjun felt sad when she heard this, she knew that she had to leave as soon as possible, "Yan Luo Wang" went to attack the territory of "Runner King" tonight, wouldn't "Runner King" have to fight back the next day.
Thinking this way, I was mindful of a piece of news about Tongshan on the news paper.
"...This devil, with high martial arts skills, was surrounded by many... kidnapped the daughter of the Yan family castle... and later left his name..."
"...This demon is known as the five-foot Yin demon...dragon...dragon..."
When she read this, she paused for a moment, not realizing anything, but after a while, she glanced at the newsprint again.
Everyone was talking.
"...What Yin demon?"
"...Shameless, that despicable and shameless Yin demon..."
"...This girl from the Yan Family Fort is not very good..."
"...According to me, when you meet this kind of man, you should give him to..."
"...It hurts me to death...my mother...my father..."
"……Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha……"
Everyone laughed, and then began to discuss various methods on how to deal with these prostitutes...
The morning light gradually grew brighter, and the people who had listened to the news paper gradually dispersed, returning to their own place to rest, Huo Qinghua arranged for a patrol, and went to the room to rest, the wailing woman on the side of the yard gradually became silent , She was about to die, lying on a broken mat, with only a faint breath left, if someone went to listen to her, what she could hear was still the wail of that single hanging.
"I'm in pain...mother..."
"I'm leaving...going..."
Qu Longjun was sitting in the yard with the newsprint, and when he finally came to this room, he went in and closed the woman's eyes.The name still flashed through my mind.
Long Aotian...
How did he get to Tongshan...
Tongshan... where is it...
**************
In the morning, "Longxian" Fu Pingbo, who is now in charge of the Jiangning Fair Party's security and laws, convened personnel from various parties, including "Heavenly Killer" Wei Yanwen and "Turning Wheel King" Xu Zhaonan, and began to pursue accountability and negotiations. Zhewen said that he was unaware of what happened in the early hours of the morning. It was a spontaneous retaliation by some violent Fair Party members out of dissatisfaction with the so-called "Great Guangming Sect Leader" Lin Zongwu. He wanted to arrest these But these people have already fled outside the city, and said that if Fu Pingbo has evidence of these people's crimes, he can arrest them and punish them.
On the other hand, Xu Zhaonan said that Lin Zongwu is a respected and unparalleled master of martial arts. He has high morals and strong martial arts. What he wants to do, I can't stop him at all. If Fu Pingbo is dissatisfied with his style , You can talk to the old man face to face.He couldn't help it anyway.
"King Gao Tian" and "King Ping Ping" didn't have any opinion on the fire that happened last night. They supported Fu Pingbo's arrest and punishment.But Xu Zhaonan's status was higher than all of them, and he dismissed such warnings.
Also this morning, after the fruitless negotiations ended, Lin Zongwu released the news that within three days, he would set foot on Gao Chang's "Millions of Soldiers and Horses".
The atmosphere in the city suddenly became more tense and chilling, and tangible storms were already gathering.
But it's nothing more than a merger. Everyone is mentally prepared, and no one is afraid.
After a busy night, Ning Ji slept in the inn until noon.
Due to some reasons that he himself did not want to think about and admit, he did not intend to give up the title of "Long Aotian" anyway, so last night, he beat up a lot of people.
……
Thousands of miles away in the southwest, Ning Yi and Ning Xi, father and son who had finished the Mid-Autumn Festival in Zhangcun, were going to work in Chengdu in a carriage.
"Father, tell me, where is the second brother now?"
"Who knows this kind of thing, it's good if you don't die outside..." Ning Yi sighed.
"We all guessed that he must have gone to Jiangning. With Xiaoji's martial arts skills, he can't suffer a big loss. Don't worry, dad." Ning Xi was more optimistic, "Maybe he is about to make a name for himself now, I'm really envious what……"
"Maybe the name of the family has been ruined by him." Ning Yi rolled his eyes.Of course, this is just the old father's habitual casual ridicule, and he still has confidence in his second son's martial arts and character.
As for the fact that he also sent people to Jiangning, there is no need to tell the eldest son too much.
"In this way, the second brother is the first person in the family to return to Jiangning. In fact, these years, my mother and several uncles of the Su family have said that they will go back to the old house one day."
Ning Xi sighed, Ning Yi thought for a while, but did not answer. He often misses Jiang Ning's situation in his heart, and according to past information, although the old house has experienced several military disasters, it has actually been preserved. .
After a while, Ning Xi moved the sad topic away: "...Father, when I go back this time, Mother said that when you came out of Zhangcun last time, she asked you to bring a roast chicken."
"Is there?" Ning Yi frowned and asked.
"Yes." Ning Xi propped her chin with both hands on the opposite side, staring into her father's eyes.
"I don't remember these little things very clearly." Ning Yi held the document in his hand and responded calmly, "...Don't talk about this, there is something wrong with your stuff..."
"Father, you can't do this..."
"Listen to me first. As for whether it makes sense, you have to think about it carefully... Look at the first one here..."
The big sun shone on the newly built road, and the carriage galloped forward with the raised dust.
The physical book is finally out, and there will be a single chapter later, everyone should read it.
(End of this chapter)
