Chapter 4 A Token

The sky was dark, and the stars that once filled the sky had disappeared without a trace. The vast mountain road was silent, except for the occasional low-pitched chirping of insects. The mountain wind blew by, and the weeds crawled, making me feel desolate and desolate.

At the end of the mountain road, there was a low gasp and the sound of hurried footsteps. It was Su Ling and Du Heng, the two of them were walking quickly, like wind and fire.

Although Su Ling was on his way, he couldn't help but think about what happened just now. Those three people must be from Sikong Mansion in Longtai City, Kyoto, but they suddenly appeared in the remote Sujia Village of Sanhe Town for some unknown reason, and he

I don’t know if they were suspicious of what he said just now in a hurry, or in other words, Su Ling didn’t know if the fate of these people who appeared in this space was the same as that of the influential figures of that era, and perhaps the basic trend was the same as that of that era.

, but the fate of individuals is different?

Regardless of whether they believed it or not, it was suspicious that he, a young man from the mountains, could say something like that. However, no matter what, it was a blessing to have saved his life. In this situation, Su Ling could not afford to think too much about the difficult matter in front of him.

It was his father, the honest and good-natured Su Ji, who was still being held in a fish net and bathed in the river. Although it was already summer, the long soaking time was still too much for him.

Su Ling clearly remembered that a while ago, his mother and his father were always nagging that the people in Chengjia Village were really unreasonable. Originally, Chengjia Village, Lijia Village and Sujia Village where he was located divided the three rivers into their own areas.

, Chengjia Village relied on its large number of people, so it naturally gained an advantage during the division, occupying more than half of it, and they were all places with abundant fish and water. The Lijia Village could not compete with the Chengjia Village, but it was still easy to step on the Sujia Village.

More than half of the remaining area was removed, leaving less than half of the area for Sujia Village. There were many miscellaneous fish, but very few rare fish.

Originally, Sujia Village had already swallowed its anger. In this war-torn year, the power of a large number of people is king. There are only a dozen or so families in Sujia Village, so how can they survive? Fortunately, they can still catch some fish. During this period, Cheng

Jiacun didn't know that he was confused or had drank fake wine, and he arbitrarily and unreasonably crossed the designated boundaries and occupied more places, which made everyone in Sujiacun angry. Sujiacun once sent several representatives to the Chengjiacun ancestral hall.

During the negotiation, he either got scolded or was beaten with a bloody head.

There is no way. Since ancient times, single men have never fought against power. The reason why Chengjia Village is so domineering and rampant is because there are people from their Chengjia Village under Zhang Xiao, the general in the east of Wanyang Town. It is said that he is a man named Cheng Wanfeng from the upper class of Chengjia Village.

This Cheng Wanfeng has some knowledge and some half-baked strategies. If he only had this ability, he would not be favored by Zhang Xiao. Cheng Wanfeng's ability to settle down is to flatter and flatter, but Zhang Xiao likes this, and now under Zhang Xiao

Under the account, he acted as a staff officer and came up with some small strategies that the dog-headed military counselor could come up with to help Zhang Xiao make some small profits.

When one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. The Chengjia Village will be arrogant from now on. Those who bully you, occupy your territory, what can you do? If you offend me, there are people above us who will put all of you unruly people in Wanyang Prison.

Even if everyone in Sujia Village is a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, they still have to eat to survive, and they are holding back a lot of energy in their hearts. Today Su Ji went fishing and was bullied like this. Naturally, the entire Sujia Village mobilized, and they had to follow her no matter what.

Chengjia Village commented that if people want to come back, they also want to come back to some fishing places.

While Su Ling asked about the situation at the fishing port by the Duheng River, he was thinking of ways to do it. He was not afraid of the people in Chengjia Village. Most of these villagers were just relying on the strength of others. They just said a few words when there were more people. What he was worried about was whether Cheng Wanfeng would be able to do it.

If he shows up, it will be troublesome.

No matter what, just take it one step at a time.

Su Ling and Du Heng had just arrived at the river where the accident occurred. Looking from a distance, they saw that there were already crowds of people there. Countless torches were shining with fire, illuminating the area like daylight. However, Su Ling could see that the people were roughly divided into two groups.

Guys, one group is standing on the left and the other is standing on the right. But Su Ling can see clearly that a large group of people on the left are mostly strong young men with strong bodies. Under the light of the fire, they all have domineering expressions.

First, this large group of people are naturally from Chengjia Village. Looking to the right, there are dozens of people standing sparsely. This group of people is really not enough to see. There are men, women, and old men and women on walking sticks.

, and there were also children with bare buttocks, all of them were thin in stature and disheveled in appearance, and some even showed timidity on their faces. Needless to say, these were people from Sujia Village.

The noise and shouting had already frightened the naked children, and they were crying and crying one after another, making it very lively. But Su Ling felt a shiver in her heart. Although the people in Sujia Village were in such a bad situation, everyone was clenching their fists.

, although there was some fear on his face, he still showed determination to not retreat even one step.

The saying that the poor should not be bullied is probably true.

The two sides were having a heated argument, and when they saw that they were already starting to fight, several elderly people from Sujia Village were pushed to the ground.

Su Ling shouted and rushed towards the two groups, and Du Heng also followed.

With a sound of "Clang--", the big kitchen knife was stuck straight on the ground. Su Ling snorted and said loudly: "Stop making any noise, go back, go back. This kitchen knife has just been sharpened, and I have been a little stupid recently."

"

Su Ling became a fool. Sujia Village knew it, and the people in Chengjia Village also knew it. They were all neighboring villages. Good things didn't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles.

Seeing the conflict, Su Ling intervened, and both sides were stunned. The people in Chengjiacun looked at the large kitchen knife on the ground, and actually took a few steps back.

The two sides immediately distanced themselves, and Su Ling's figure flashed out.

This trick really worked. Su Ling was also a little surprised. He smiled hoarsely, pulled out the big kitchen knife stuck in the ground, blew the mud on the knife with his mouth, and made a move towards the people in Chengjiacun.

The people in Chengjia Village took two steps back unconsciously.

This is also reasonable. Who among normal people would risk their lives with two fools?

Su Ling turned around and saw Su Xiaohe from Sujia Village. He was a middle-aged man in his 50s, and his clothes were decent. Su Ling said to him: "Uncle Xiaohe, where is my father?"

Su Xiaohe quickly pointed to the river port not far away and said, "Su Ling, your father is soaking in the river."

Su Ling took a glance and saw a few fishing net ropes tied to a large pile at the river port. There was a man in the net in the river below, with only one head exposed. His face was already a little pale. It was his father.

Su Ji.

Su Ling was furious, swiped the kitchen knife, pointed at the group of people in Chengjia Village, and shouted: "Which bastard did this, get out!"

I shouted three times, but no one in Chengjia Village answered.

Su Ling was so angry that he laughed and said: "You dare to do it but don't admit it. I thought you Chengjia Village are all figures, but it turns out you are all idiots!" Then he turned to Du Heng and said: "Du Heng, where is your father?"

Du Jing walked out of the crowd and said: "My nephew, you give me orders." Du Jing was about 40 years old, but his figure was not as thin as the people in Sujia Village, but he had a strong physique, and the muscles on his arms were even more visible to the naked eye.

He also looks a bit fierce, and there is a deep scar on his left forehead, which looks a bit scary.

Su Ling said to Du Jing: "Uncle, I think you are the only strong person in Sujia Village. Those idiots don't dare to recognize you. Please help Du Heng get into trouble and let my father out first."

Du Jing nodded hurriedly, called a few more young people, and was about to go down to the river to release the people.

Suddenly, a deep cry came from the crowd: "Who dares to let people go? Try moving the fishing net!"

When the people in Chengjia Village heard the sound, their eyes lit up, and they flashed to both sides at the same time. The crowd separated. A middle-aged man in gray clothes walked out, followed by seven or eight thugs and slaves. Each of them curled their lips and raised their eyebrows, seven of them were angry, and eight of them were angry.

Not convinced.

The man from Chengjia Village, Cheng Zheng, hurriedly came over to greet him. With a smile on his face, he bowed and said, "Oh, it's a shame, what a fuss, why did you surprise Master Wanfeng to come?"

Du Jing and his group obviously saw this middle-aged man and stood there hesitantly.

Su Ling looked at the middle-aged man, and saw that the middle-aged man was dressed in gray clothes, but they were all made of silk and satin. He was fat and fat, like a big hairless gray pig, with white skin, a shiny face, and the size of a catfish.

Mouths, so fat that they are squeezed together

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

His facial features resemble that of a giant toad.

This middle-aged man was very impressive and could move freely on his own, but he had to be supported by others. He walked squarely and held a small fan in his hand, one of which was flashing.

He stood in front of Su Ling, calmly, without even raising his eyelids, and only waved a small fan.

Su Ling knew in his heart that this person was probably the staff officer of the Zhendong General Zhang Xiao, but Quan Dang didn't know and snorted: "Who are you? Why can't you let me go? I'm not afraid of cutting you with a knife?"

Du Heng gently pulled Su Ling's clothes and whispered: "Su Ling, he is Cheng Wanfeng. I'm afraid it won't be easy to use force."

However, Su Ling looked like he didn't care and shouted to himself: "Why is Cheng Wan crazy? Cheng Qian is crazy. Are you as crazy as me?"

Cheng Wanfeng then smiled coldly: "Young man, you are so brave, but you just want to do whatever you want with a kitchen knife? Don't you know there is a royal law here?"

Su Ling knew that his momentum could not be weak, otherwise he would really be in trouble today, so he laughed at Cheng Wanfeng and said: "Wang's method? What is Wang's method? Wang's method is useful, but who dares to soak a living person in water?"

"

Cheng Wanfeng laughed loudly, glanced at Su Ling, and said coldly: "You want to know what Wang Fa is? I am Wang Fa! You try to kill someone!"

Su Ling wanted to annoy him and said with a smile: "What are you? Bastard? I don't see it, you look like a big toad."

Cheng Wanfeng was not angry, and said calmly: "Young man, there is no point in arguing." Then he turned to the minions behind him and said: "You guys, surround the entrance of the river port for me. Whoever dares to go there, I'll give it to you."

I'll beat you to death!" The last three words were spoken with a little effort, one word at a time.

After hearing this, the minions lined up towards the entrance of the river port. Now no one could get through.

There was a commotion among the people in Sujia Village, but no one dared to save Su Ji.

Seeing that Su Ling could no longer play, Su Ling smiled and sang to Cheng Wanfeng, saying: "Mr. Cheng, you are the popular man of General Zhendong. Why should you be so familiar with a mountain man like this kid? Why do you treat my father like this?"

Let them go, and the people in Chengjia Village and Sujia Village will go back to their own homes. This is great. It’s a harmonious society!"

Cheng Wanfeng thought for a while and said calmly: "It's not impossible to let Su Ji go."

Hearing this, Su Ling quickly made a big bow and said with a smile: "Who said that our Mr. Cheng is just too good for his own strength? He is such a reasonable old man, isn't he? Everyone in Sujia Village has heard this. Let's go and let him go."

After that, he asked for bricks to release the person.

Cheng Wanfeng said calmly: "Wait! If you let me go like this, what good will I gain?"

When Su Ling heard this, he rolled his eyes and thought to himself, I knew it wouldn't be that easy. He hurriedly said: "Good thing, why don't you tell me your address and I'll send you some plump groupers in two days. You can try it."

Try it out, if you find it inconvenient to meet in person, I can mail it over for free!"

Cheng Wanfeng snorted and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Do I need those rotten fishes of yours?"

Su Ling spread her hands and said: "Then tell me, what benefits do you want? I am not a girl, otherwise I will marry your son..."

Cheng Wanfeng was unmoved by Su Ling's trick of hobbling meat, and said slowly: "Su Ji is released, but from now on, all the fishing areas in your Sujia Village will be assigned to Chengjia Village."

Before Su Ling could say anything, the people in Sujia Village had already shouted: "How can that be done? All the fishing places are given to you, what will we eat?"

Cheng Wanfeng said calmly: "There is no land left to plant. If you really want to catch fish, you can catch it. A fish costs five cents. This price is fair!"

"It's too much to bully! It's too much to bully! What's the difference between this and robbery!" The anger of the people in Sujia Village had already reached the extreme. Several young people were even more angry and shouted: "Fight them, folks.

,Fight us! Come on, everyone!"

Phew - the people from Sujia Village were about to rush up. Su Ling knew in his heart that if there was a fight, Sujia Village wouldn't be able to get the slightest advantage, but there was no other way if he didn't fight, so he had no choice but to pick up the big kitchen knife in his hand and yell.

He said: "Grandma, fellow villagers, let's fight with them. I'll see who dares to come here. I'll chop him up first!"

There was a push and shove between the two sides, but the people from Chengjia Village were not injured, but several people from Sujia Village were knocked down and lay on the ground moaning continuously.

Just as chaos was about to break out, someone suddenly shouted: "Oh, if you have something to say, let's talk it over. How can we fight and kill each other?" As soon as he finished speaking, a man ran over panting.

Only then did everyone stop and look towards where the voice was speaking. They saw a man who looked like a scholar. Although his clothes were shabby, he was simple and clean. He was also holding a childish girl by the hand, and the girl was running with him all the way.

Come, your face is red and you are panting.

It is the only scholar in Sujia Village - Scholar Bai and his sister Xiaolan.

Scholar Bai ran to the crowd, lowered his head and said to Xiaolan: "Lan'er, go find Uncle Du!"

Xiaolan nodded obediently and came to Du Jing, who held her in his arms.

After Bai Shusheng settled Xiaolan, he said to Su Ling: "Brother Su, please step back and leave this matter to me."

Su Ling asked worriedly: "Brother Bai, are you sure?"

Scholar Bai smiled helplessly and said: "No matter what you are sure about, you have to give it a try."

After saying that, he took two steps forward, cupped his hands towards Cheng Wanfeng and said, "Mr. Cheng is well. It's okay to be born late."

Cheng Wanfeng was stunned for a moment, then carefully looked at Scholar Bai in front of him, then smiled faintly for a long time and said: "I thought Sujia Village was full of savages who didn't understand etiquette, but you are a little different, young man, who are you?

"

Scholar Bai smiled faintly and said: "Xiao Ke's name is not worthy of tainting Master Cheng's mouth. Besides, I am a foreigner. I came to Sujia Village to settle down in trouble. Master Cheng, can you think of it for Xiao Ke's sake?"

, let Uncle Su go, as for the fishing area, let’s talk about it for a long time, how about we discuss it later?”

Cheng Wanfeng snorted softly and said: "Look at your face? I just don't know if your face is worth anything. Can you tell me whether you are a filial piety or a scholar?"

Scholar Bai said neither humble nor arrogantly: "I am neither filial or honest, nor a scholar. I am just a scholar in white clothes."

Cheng Wanfeng sneered: "Scholar? You have such a big face! Even with your background, you only think that I am giving you a face."

Scholar Bai was not surprised at all, and said word by word: "Since I don't have this ability, I have a classmate who is also waiting for orders under General Zhang Xiao. You have the same lord. For his sake, I wonder if Mr. Cheng can do it?"

Reward for face?"

Cheng Wanfeng took a breath of air-conditioning and thought to himself that this scholar was so calm and unhurried. It turned out that there was someone behind him. If it was someone with a higher position than me, even if it was someone with a position similar to mine, what I did today was not good.

Tell me, if he and that Military Advisor Jia were close to suing me, it would not end well for me.

After thinking about it, he quickly put on a soft and approachable smile and said: "Oh, I'm from my family, haha, it seems there is a misunderstanding, so I'm sorry, you go and fish Su Ji out."

Su Ling felt nauseated. When he smiled, his facial features were even more ugly than if he hadn't smiled. He has a villainous face! Su Ling cursed secretly.

Just as Du Jing was calling people to save Su Ji, Cheng Wanfeng seemed to remember something and said to Scholar Bai, "May I ask, who is your classmate under General Zhang?"

Scholar Bai hurriedly said: "It is Cao Yu who is marching and belongs to Li Gui."

"Hmph! Who do I think it is? It turns out that even an unknown person with a big sesame seed dares to sell it! I'm afraid Su Ji won't be able to let it go!" Cheng Wanfeng squeezed out these words through gritted teeth.

Upon hearing this, the group of minions waved their swords and guns, and the people in Sujiacun could only stand frozen on the spot.

Scholar Bai was stunned and said: "Master Cheng, what do you mean?"

"What do you mean, Cheng Lizheng, beat out this poor scholar who has become stupid from reading!" Cheng Wanfeng closed his eyes, obviously losing any patience.

Hearing this, Zheng Cheng retreated from the Chengjia Village and summoned people to rush forward to beat Scholar Bai.

Su Ling

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

How could you just sit back and do nothing? He shouted loudly, held up a big kitchen knife and stood in front of Bai Shusheng and said: "Fellows, don't hold your hand, come to me!"

There was another chaos between the two sides, and they struggled together. For a while, there were shouts and howls.

Scholar Bai had no power to restrain the chicken, so he had to retreat behind the crowd, pacing and murmuring: "The world is getting worse, the world is getting worse! All the words of the saint are useless!"

Seeing that the people in Sujiacun are weak and weak, they will suffer a big loss.

Su Ling was already red-eyed. He took turns with the big kitchen knife, slapping left and right, knocking down several people. He knew how to hit them, but he couldn't chop them with the blade. If he really chopped people to death, things would be in trouble.

But he knocked down a few, and a dozen big men came up with a roar, and knocked them to the ground in three or two strokes. Each of these ten big men raised their big sticks and slapped Su Ling down.

Su Ling's heart skipped a beat, it was over, it was completely blown out of the water now!

In an instant, Su Ling felt a green shadow flash before his eyes, a cold wind blew by, and someone was standing in front of him. With a flick of his palms, the dozen big men all fell to the ground as if they had been hit hard.

, my parents howled and rolled all over the floor, but they never got up again.

Su Ling took a closer look and saw that the person coming was the young man in green shirt staying at his inn.

"It's you!" Su Ling whispered.

"Boy, I will fight this battle for you!" The green-shirted young man shouted, and his figure suddenly shot out. An afterimage passed through the crowd and appeared in front of Cheng Wanfeng in an instant.

Cheng Wanfeng felt as if there was someone in front of him. Before he could react, he felt his breath tightening and he was out of breath. He secretly thought that something was wrong and wanted to call someone to save him, but he was speechless.

In an instant, the young man in green’s left hand pinched Cheng Wanfeng’s neck like an eagle’s claw!

The young man in green shirt said coldly: "Let them stop!"

Cheng Wanfeng wanted to speak, but couldn't make a sound, so he could only nod his head like a chicken pecking at rice.

Only then did the young man in green loosen the hand that was pinching him a little.

Cheng Wanfeng immediately shouted like a slaughtering pig: "Everyone stop, everyone stop!"

Only then did everyone react. When the people in Chengjia Village saw their patron being choked by someone, they all wanted to come over and save him.

But just as they were about to approach, the young man in green said in a cold voice: "If you go any further, I will strangle him to death!" After saying that, his face was filled with murderous intent.

Now no one in Chengjia Village dared to move.

The young man in green shirt said calmly: "You guys know the current affairs!" After saying that, he gently let go of his hand.

Cheng Wanfeng gasped for air, knowing that the man in front of him was not easy to mess with, so he hurriedly smiled and said: "This strong man, I wonder what's going on with your sudden appearance."

The young man in Qingshan didn't seem to want to make the matter a big deal, so he said calmly: "Of course I'll ask you to let Su Ji go."

Cheng Wanfeng seemed to feel that the danger was over, and then he said a little harder: "Hehe, warrior, you are good at martial arts, so it's okay for me to let Su Ji go, but you are not afraid. When you leave, I will lead Wanyang's soldiers to kill Su Ji."

Every village is full of people, but bandits are rampant these days, and it’s not uncommon for a village to be massacred by bandits!"

The young man in green shirt didn't seem to want to talk nonsense with him. He turned around and came to Su Ling and whispered: "Show this to him. Remember, you can only show it to him alone!" After that, he took out something from his arms.

Su Ling took it and looked at it carefully. It turned out to be a golden token. There was a big word "imperial" written on it. Under the word "imperial", there was a monster carved with the head of a tiger and the body of a snake.

There are also two pairs of huge wings on it, with teeth and claws spread out, lifelike, as if they are about to fly out of the golden order.

"What is this?" Su Ling asked in confusion.

"It doesn't matter what it is, it works!" The young man in green shirt said calmly.

Su Ling nodded, walked up to Cheng Wanfeng, bared his teeth and said: "Cheng... Toad... Well, it's not Mr. Cheng. This friend of mine wants you to see something, but he said he would only let you see something."

Watch alone!"

Cheng Wanfeng asked impatiently: "What?"

Su Ling put the golden order in his palm to cover it and showed it to Cheng Wanfeng.

When Cheng Wanfeng saw the golden order, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his face became extremely ugly, and even his body began to shake unconsciously.

But when he saw him taking two steps, he threw away the small fan and saluted the young master in green shirt: "Young Master was disturbed just now. I will take the people from Chengjia Village away right away!"

After saying this, Cheng Wanfeng turned back and shouted to the people in Chengjia Village: "Everyone, it's getting late, go back and rest!"

After saying that, he walked towards the people first. The people in Chengjia Village were stunned on the spot and didn't know what to do.

A short-sighted minion next to Cheng Wanfeng was just getting ready to fight. When he saw his master was about to leave, he hurriedly approached him and asked in a low voice: "Master, do you really want to stop fighting? This is an opportunity to take over the fishing industry in Sujia Village.

Swallow it all!"

Cheng Wanfeng sneered at this blind thing and said, "Come on, come here with your ears..."

The minion thought that his master was going to teach him some secrets, so he smiled obsequiously and moved his face towards him.

As soon as he thought about it, Cheng Wanfeng's expression suddenly changed, and he slapped the minion in the face with a "snap" sound, causing the minion to spin three times.

"Hit? Beat you big-headed devil? Call everyone and get back here!"

When the people in Chengjia Village saw that their backers were about to leave, they all lowered their heads and dispersed in twos and threes.

Before he could think of it, the young master in green shirt stopped Cheng Wanfeng and said, "Why, are you leaving now?"

When Cheng Wanfeng heard this, his face turned pale, he turned around and said word by word: "I wonder if you have anything else to say, Master."

The green-robed young man pursed his lips toward the river not far away. Cheng Wanfeng hurriedly said: "Su Ji naturally let go..."

The young man in green shirt smiled lightly and shook his head.

Cheng Wanfeng thought for a while, slapped his forehead and shouted loudly: "People from Chengjia Village, don't leave yet, I have something to announce!"

When the people in Chengjia Village heard this, they all stopped.

Cheng Wanfeng said loudly: "From now on, the fishing areas of these three rivers will be re-divided. Half of the fishing area of ​​Chengjia Village will be allocated to Sujia Village. Anyone who dares to cross the boundary will be the first to be spared!"

When the people in Chengjia Village heard this, they all looked puzzled and shocked. They stood there and looked at Cheng Wanfeng in surprise.

Seeing them like this, Cheng Wanfeng stamped his foot and said angrily: "Why are you all looking at me? Why don't you leave? It will be dawn soon. Do you want me to take care of your breakfast?"

After saying that, he waved his hand and left with the group of minions in dejection.

When everyone in Chengjia Village left, a burst of cheers broke out among the people in Sujia Village. Everyone was so excited and happy that no one expected that not only did they not get into trouble, they also got more fishing areas.

Su Xiaohe took Su Ling's hand and said, "Su Ling, is that young man in green shirt your friend? We have to thank him properly!"

Su Ling chuckled: "My buddy!"

But when everyone looked for the young man in green shirt, he had already disappeared.

Su Ling suddenly remembered and shouted: "Please help me, my dad is still soaking in the water! Please save my dad!"

"Dad——"......

Everyone rushed down the river to save Su Ji. However, Su Ling felt that there seemed to be a figure moving far away on the other side of the river.

Su Ling raised his head and looked across the river.

I don't know when the moon appeared in the sky again. In the dim moonlight, three people seemed to be standing indistinctly on the other side of the river. The night wind blew by, and the clothes of the three people were fluttering in the wind.

That moment seemed to be frozen forever.

Two handsome young men, and a big man in the black tower who is like a guardian angel.
