Chapter 1 Bad News
It was noon at this time, and the sun had risen to Lao Gao. Many people gathered in the open space at the entrance of Bishi Village. They were in a semicircular shape. The strong sun had already made some older people feel dizzy, but no one dared to let out a breath, let alone help them. In front of them was a middle-aged man of five short figure. The middle-aged man dressed clearly differently from these villagers. He had a light-colored buckle jacket, a palm-shaped fan in his left hand, and a delicate teapot in his right hand, which was very comfortable to suck it one by one.
The little eyes were flashing from time to time, and he was lying halfway in a cross-legged posture, "Li Ergou, tell me, should you hand over the food your family owes? How many days have you been? When do you want to hide? Today I called everyone here to be a testimony so that everyone can see how ungrateful you, Li Ergou, are you, even you, to this day? Why? Do you really think I was a good church?"
The king landlord is the largest landlord in Bishi Village. The villagers in front of him are all tenants of his family. When the days come, they have to hand over the food. There are actually very few people who can really eat from home. Bishi Village is located in the northernmost part of the Tianyuan Dynasty. It is a small village under Luohua Town, a northern village. There are 35 households and 110 people in the village. The reason why it is called Bishi Village is because there is a green stone directly south of the village. The appearance of this stone brings sweet mountain spring water to the entire village. As long as there is water, everything will be fine!
But now, this has become a delusion. The Tianyuan Dynasty has existed for a full four hundred years. It has changed from its initial strength to its current wars. Soon, Luohua Town has become a 3-no-regarded area in the north. Who has the ability has the final say. I don’t know how many big figures have occupied it and then killed by new forces. Over time, the poverty and chaos here are naturally conceivable!
No one knows what the origin of the king landlord is. All the villagers know one thing now is that since the man came, everything in the mountain spring has become his personal property. A few years ago, there were several strong men who dared to resist, but the next day they were in a wilderness. That scene really shocked the villagers who wanted to resist. After all, the former is more important than losing their lives without being saturated!
Half an hour has passed, and the sun is getting more and more vicious. The landlord of the king obviously lost his last patience and gave a wink to the left and right. The servants of the left and right naturally knew that their master was going to do something, but don’t think that his master was cruel. The master is already very kind. He only collected 70% of the food for 100% of the food. The remaining 30% is enough for these villagers, but Li Ergou is not satisfied and wants to hide his own privately. This is asking for death!
Two tall servants pulled Li Ergou up like this. In fact, everyone's hearts were like a mirror. Li Ergou was the most miserable family in the whole village. The family of five was pointing at the food. If they handed over 70% of them, they would still make concessions to make people live? For a moment, Li Ergou's family was caught, and three and a half-year-old children were shaking. Their eyes were so frightened, "Ergou, I know you don't want to hand over the food you have worked hard for a year. This is OK. My heart is the softest. As long as you agree to my previous request, I can guarantee to God that your family will have a full stomach in the future!
I have told you before that the promise made by my landlord is a matter of no matter when it reaches the end. The sun is so big and the children are very young. Is it really that difficult for you to nod? Think about it carefully, don’t worry!”
Li Ergou raised his head suddenly, and the first time there was a fluctuation in his calm eyes, his voice was so hoarse, "Your delusional, you will never agree to your request. Since I, Li Ergou, dare not hand over the food, I have already thought about what my fate will be. If you have the ability, come to me. If I frowned, I will be your grandson!" Although Li Ergou is thin, he has a strength in his bones. If it weren't for the pressure from the servants, he would have rushed to the king and landlord long ago!
The king's chest was really shocked and sweating. Part of the tea in the teapot was spilled on the back of his hand because of the shock just now, and the skin was burned. The king's heart was angry and suddenly threw the teapot in his hand on Li Ergou's face. The hot tea and blood mixed together and slid down Li Ergou's face. However, Li Ergou smiled. Years of work had turned his skin into bronze, and his face was mostly masculine. "Look, the king's landlord is angry! Hahaha, what? Is this your method? Let's go!"
The villagers behind him did not speak out, which was what Li Ergou expected. After all, everyone still had to rely on the king landlord to survive, right? Everything is so insignificant in the face of survival. It can even be said that as long as the king landlord is angry, everyone's life will be better, but why does Ergou just understand?
It’s not that no one wants to pull Ergou, but before the action, he was already pulled by the people around him and whispered: “What do you want to do? Do you want to be like Ergou? Everyone knows that you and Ergou have a good relationship on weekdays, but now is not the time for you to stand out. Think about your father and mother. What will they do if something happens to you?" The young man hesitated and finally returned to quiet under the struggle.
The king landlord was obviously angry. It was so good. No one in Bishi Village dared to disobey his intentions. Li Ergou was the first. Since he was the first, he had to come and see his real means. His smile was so cold. He sat down again and clapped his hands, "Come on, bring me the person, let our Ergou see, don't catch the wrong person, let Ergou see our jokes in vain!"
With a chaotic footsteps sounded, when he saw the visitor, Li Ergou should not be said to be all the villagers. Isn’t this Ergou’s wife? How could it be like this now? I saw a young woman appearing in front of everyone with a embarrassed look on her face. Although this woman has been working all year round, there is no trace of work on her face, and her simple outfit looks even more beautiful and charming!
"Beast! It's hard for a woman to be a good man. If you have the ability, come to me. Ernie. What's wrong with Ernie? You're talking. Wang Feisai and I'm fighting with you today!" Li Ergou's strength became even stronger. Two or three servants couldn't hold him down. What does this man usually eat? Wang Landlord was not in a hurry. He gently pinched Ernie's neck with his hands with a loving look on his face, "Good man? I'm not a good man. You'd better not be excited. Although I don't have any skills, I still have the strength to kill this woman. Do you know? Actually, I didn't want to do this. I fell in love with Ernie early in the morning. You know this. As long as you nod, you don't want to blame me.
Er Niang is the only one who can do this now. I am the only one who can match his man. As he said that, the landlord kicked Li Ergou hard on the belly. Li Ergou spewed out a mouthful of blood and curled up on the ground, which was very painful. But even so, his eyes were still looking at Er Niang. Unfortunately, Er Niang had no reaction. The three children no longer knew what crying was, and they just looked at him stupidly.
"You really want to know how Er Niang is doing, right? Well, then I can tell you now that he is dead. Do you know how he died? He was tortured to death by me. Oh, I really want you to see her expression, but you don't have any chance." The king landlord looked at the three young children kneeling on the ground, "This is all your father's fault. You dare to play with me. You don't have the qualifications. All of you will listen to me. If anyone dares to go against me in the future, this is the end. I see who dares to collect the body for their family today!"
The three young children were completely frightened in these scenes. Their bodies dominated the movement of their brains and walked behind the King Landlord mechanically. What does this mean? Everyone knows, but is this scene too miserable? Li Ergou was still spitting blood in his mouth at this time, and he still had a trace of breath. He could only watch his child follow the King Landlord away, while his Erniang was only at the same distance from his hand, but he had no strength, so he could only whisper the second lady's name.
The villagers all dispersed, and the shock of this scene really scared them. Everyone knows who the king landlord is, so no one dares to collect the body for Er Niang.
That night, Xie Ganlin and Xie Changan and his son who had been working outside for a day returned to the village. When they entered the village, Xie Ganlin felt something was wrong. It seemed that every family had a close door. This was abnormal. Although the village was poor, everyone was extremely enthusiastic. What happened today? Xie Changan's appearance inherited Xie Ganlin's heroic martial arts and also had the elegance of his mother Wanniang. Xie Changan, who was twenty, was the best young man in the village. However, after seeing Ergou and his wife on the ground, his face changed drastically and he shouted, "Uncle Ergou, what's wrong with you, Ergou? Aunt, wake up too!"
Xie Ganlin's hands were trembling. What's wrong? It was fine during the day, and everyone agreed. When he came back in the evening, the two brothers took a sip and talked. Why did it become like this in half a day? Who is it? "Ergou, Ergou, I am Brother Ganlin, what's wrong with you? Who made you like this? Tell me!"
Li Ergou woke up and saw that it was Xie Ganlin. He was excited and spit out a mouthful of blood. Brother, are you finally back? Unfortunately, I don’t have the blessing to drink with you again. Brother, let’s go first!" Li Ergou died of anger.
Xie Ganlin's family was originally an outsider, but because of a famine in his hometown, he fled to Bishi Village. Thanks to the help of Ergou's family, he settled down. But why did such a good person become like this now? Is it really not good for good people? Xie Chang'an's relationship with Ergou on weekdays is the best. The hunting skills were taught by Ergou. In Xie Chang'an's heart, Uncle Ergou was his other father, and he was already crying!
"Brother Chang'an, it's all my father's fault. It's my father's fault!" A petite woman appeared in front of Xie Chang'an. Wang Landlord's only love queen Shuilan. Wang Shuilan is completely different from his father. She is pure and has a pure mind. She will give some good things in the family to Xie Chang'an in private. The purpose is to be closer to Xie Chang'an. But now he knows that this is impossible. She cried in a low voice and told about the things she had born in the daytime. Xie Ganlin could no longer bear the death of his brother. His body rushed to the Wang family's house like an angry lion. Yes, he wants to avenge his brother, and such a good person died in front of him. "Chang'an, what are you waiting for? Let's go and ask for an explanation for your Ergou Uncle! Miss Wang, you can go back and report, and my father and son of the Xie family are not afraid!"
But Wang Shuilan couldn't do it. He just knelt down and looked at Uncle Ergou who was already cold and Chang'an, who had gone far away, and felt in pain. Why did she have such a cruel father? If this is her life and Chang'an, then he would admit it!
