093: Uneven distribution of spoils [seeking monthly ticket]
The moon is in the middle of the sky, and the black rabbit is bright and clear.
Occasionally, the cry of night owls can be heard from afar.
The bonfire burned quietly, with one or two crackling sounds heard from time to time. Convinced that both Shen and Tang were asleep, the middle-aged man with considerable status summoned other guards around the bonfire to discuss the next step. ——
"How else can we leave?" A grumpy man jumped up the conversation and made a murderous gesture with his eyebrows, "We have already made it this far, why don't we just stop doing it..."
"Yeah, haven't we all said that we share blessings and share hardships? Since we can't survive in this world, it's better to just take over the mountain and become the king, and let the grass fall together..." The person who said this looked a bit polite. , as if he had been studying for several years.
Another guard said: "With these treasures, I will have no worries about food and drink for the rest of my life. Why bother to be a dog and suffer from the anger of birds?"
Everyone expressed their thoughts.
Some people hope to join the bandits together, while others hope to share the spoils on the spot and go back to become rich men with their share of the money.
The information Shen Tang heard was true.
They are indeed the guards of the Lin family in Lingzhou.
However, some information was deliberately concealed - for example, they went south to visit their relatives, and the road was dangerous. They had lost several brothers along the way, and they began to retreat halfway. For example, they saw gold and silver jewelry contained in wooden boxes, and cultural records. Playing with antiques - that was a huge amount of money that none of them could make in a few lifetimes! So they became interested in the money and prepared to kill themselves for it.
The most important thing is that the people they escorted were old, weak, women and children, with almost no ability to protect themselves. Now the world is in chaos. Isn't it normal for these people to have an accident on the way? When the truth comes out, they will have already brought gold and silver with them. Gone far away.
In addition to being motivated by money, they have other reasons.
For example, in a hurry for time, some of the bodies of the bodyguards sacrificed by the host were hastily buried without even having time to get a tombstone. Others could not even find their graves - because they were closely pursued by the enemy, the bodies could only be left behind or exposed in the wilderness. , or no bones remain.
The pension money given is also symbolic. Ordinary people think it is a lot, but compared with the Lin family's money, it is not even the tip of the iceberg! Why did they risk their lives for this little money? It would be better to do the opposite, and the relatives of the fallen brothers would also can be properly accommodated.
After planning for a while, they secretly reached an agreement.
The original plan was to take action near Xiaocheng, but a group of bandits jumped out and disrupted their plan. During the melee, many boxes containing gold, silver and jewelry were robbed by the bandits.
After escaping from the trap, they counted the number of people and found that more than 20 brothers were killed, and the remaining ones were all injured to varying degrees.
At this time, a member of the Lin family noticed something unusual about them and brought it up. They felt guilty and were worried about what happened, so they killed everyone and threw them down the mountain without stopping.
Before there was time to repair, Shen and Tang came again.
"Let's do this..." The middle-aged man looked at the bonfire in silence for a long time, and finally spoke. Everyone looked at him, waiting for him to make up his mind. He said, "Go back and count the total, and divide it into one hundred and fifty parts. Someone. If you want to go, just take one..."
After that, some people had different opinions.
"Why can I only take one out of 150? There are only about 60 of us here, so we should divide it into 60 or so!"
The middle-aged man yelled: "Brothers who are dead can't be separated?"
The guard said: "I, Mao Da, Wang San, and Zhao Si are all from the same hometown and village. Let me take their share back to the head office of my sister-in-law and sister-in-law. If you stay like this, I don't know when or what month you can go back.
What should their parents do?"
The middle-aged man's face darkened: "What do you mean?"
"I don't mean anything."
The middle-aged man was so angry that he was scratching his neck.
"Do you think we will be greedy for their money?"
"I didn't say that."
The middle-aged man was so angry that veins popped out on his forehead.
At this time, several other people who expressed that they wanted to take the money and go back to become rich people also mentioned the names of several deceased brothers one after another, saying that they would take their pension money back to their families. Although there was sincerity in it, but more importantly
Most of them are greedy for money.
There were more and more voices like this, and there were seven or eight people in total.
The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and refused to let go. He only said that he was worried about this and would send back all his brother's pension money.
One of the guards who was not dealing with him sneered: "Who can't say nice things? You can tell your own conscience. If you don't even believe it yourself, how can you make us believe it?"
At this time, another guard made a third voice.
Why should the money they worked so hard to get be distributed to people who died long ago? Shouldn't it be distributed to the living?
This voice expressed the feelings of many people, but they still wanted to be shameless and it seemed too unjust to say it, so they suppressed it. Now that someone raised it, it was naturally unanimously echoed.
The middle-aged man's face was so gloomy that ink dripped from his face.
Shen Tang, who was sleeping with his eyes closed: "..."
Ouch, now the spoils are beginning to be divided unevenly?
Zhai Le, who was sleeping with his eyes closed: "..."
Dissatisfied, he really fell asleep_(:з)∠)_
Three voices mean three groups of people.
The three groups of people were in a stalemate, and the originally harmonious atmosphere was full of solemnity and solemnity, filled with the smell of gunpowder. Some people even secretly put their hands on the handles of their swords, waiting for someone to break the deadlock and make the first cut! At this critical moment,
——
Boom!
The sound was silent, but it seemed particularly clear at this time.
As soon as Shen Tang heard this movement, he secretly thought that something was wrong - when did the person in the big wooden box move, but at this time?
"what sound?"
The middle-aged man shouted loudly.
Everyone turned their attention to Shen and Tang.
Gradually, murderous intent arose.
Even if they weren't responsible for the recent movement, these two young men couldn't stay, and all their servants must be killed, so as not to leave any clues behind, so as not to get into trouble.
A cruel look flashed across the middle-aged man's face.
He shouted: "Kill!"
Unexpectedly, just after the words fell, before they had time to kill them, the two people who were sleeping well opened their eyes at the same time!
Zhai Le threw the water bag upwards, stepped on the tree trunk and jumped up. His left hand turned into a black long bow, and at the same time he grabbed the string with four fingers of his right hand. With a buzzing sound, the arrow accurately passed through the water bag. All the exploded liquid was poured onto the bonfire.
The remaining bonfire was blown up by a few arrows from him.
The surroundings returned to darkness, with only the cold moonlight pouring in silently.
All this happened in the blink of an eye.
Everyone was caught off guard and panicked.
If Zhai Le takes action, is there any reason for Shen Tang not to follow?
She drew her right hand out of the air and transformed into a long sword. She walked with flexible steps, her body was as light as a swallow, with goose down flying. The long sword in her hand cut through the night sky, striking directly at the enemy's throat and going away. It cut through several without any hindrance.
Before they could react, their throats and necks were already cold, and the blood spurted out and spread over a large area of their clothes.
The middle-aged man was the first to react.
Shocked and horrified, but more importantly, overwhelmingly angry!
The mantis stalks the cicada, followed by the oriole.
Before Huang Que could take a breath of pride, he took action with the slingshot staring at Huang Que's butt! I thought he had been cautious for many years, but today he suffered a big loss at the hands of two yellow-mouthed kids!
