The only Chenghuang Temple in Bianliang has been in ruins for a long time, and almost all the beggars in Bianliang gather in this area.
In the area to the left and right of the City God's Temple, most of the people living at the bottom of the city are the poor, who work hard to make a living all day long, and no one pays attention to the fact that a pair of strange masters and maids have recently moved in.
Night fell, and a strong stench filled the air.
The alley is full of garbage and the bodies of dead dogs and cats. There may be one or two beggars' bodies hidden in it. How can this smell be better?
Jin'er looked complicated and hurriedly closed the courtyard door, lowered her head and entered the wing.
There is nothing in this room except an earthen bed.
Zhang Zhenniang held up a candle, rolled up the bloody coats that Wang Lin and Zhao Ji had replaced, and signaled Jin'er to dig a hole in the courtyard and bury them quickly.
Zhao Ji looked numb and sat silently on the kang without saying a word.
The wound from Gao Yanei's kick was still painful, but it was no longer unbearable.
But as an official of the Song Dynasty, he never expected that he would be where he is today. Not only did he stab someone, but he didn't know if he stabbed him to death, he was also inexplicably hunted by Gao Qiu's people. If it weren't for the brave and god-like Wang Lin in front of him, he would be like this.
I'm afraid my life may not be saved.
When the incident happened unexpectedly, Zhao Ji was hurriedly rescued by Wang Lin and took refuge in this slum. Zhao Ji wanted to reveal his identity several times, but he was worried that if he was alone outside, something bad would happen if someone acted maliciously.
Little did he know that Wang Lin had already seen through him and was just pretending not to know.
Wang Lin caught a glimpse of Zhao Ji's health value on his attribute table dropping from 5 to 4.5, which seemed to be due to injury.
…
Zhang Zhenniang bowed and said, "Master Wang, you can rest here tonight in peace. I will ask Jin'er to go find out the news tomorrow morning and see if I can send you out of the city."
"Thank you madam for your help." Wang Lin cupped his hands and clasped his fists.
Zhang Zhenniang sighed faintly: "Young Master provoked Gao Yanei and ran into such a disaster. Speaking of which, it was because of the slave. The slave felt very uncomfortable."
"This Gao Yanei is known as a playboy, bullying men and dominating women in Tokyo, and his father, Gao Taiwei, has caused trouble in the court and killed countless loyal ministers and generals. The young master has offended Gao Taiwei's family, and I am worried...
…”
Wang Lin chuckled, "Madam, you don't have to worry about me. At worst, I'll just leave. What can Captain Gao do to me?"
Wang Lin thought: In the worst case, I will leave Bianliang City and go to Liangshan to join the gang. It may not necessarily be a bad thing.
If he goes to Liangshan, Song Jiang will definitely have nothing to do with him.
However, with this official of the Song Dynasty by his side, there is no need to go to that step yet.
Zhao Ji listened for a long time and then realized that Wang Lin had offended Gao Qiu.
In fact, Zhao Ji knew very well what kind of person Gao Qiu was.
It's just that he spent all his energy on the study of calligraphy and painting and the belly of women, and was too lazy to care about the important affairs of the court. As for treacherous officials such as Cai Jing, Gao Qiu, and Tong Guan, in his opinion, as long as they were loyal to the imperial power, they could help him share the burden.
In the government affairs, it is enough not to cause rebellion among the Zhao family.
Those so-called loyal ministers are all sanctimonious, but in reality, which one of them is not a male thief or a female prostitute?
However, today, Gao Yanei actually kicked him in that spot!
As soon as he thought of this, he felt severe pain in his crotch again. Zhao Ji couldn't help but groaned, and couldn't help but hate Gao Yanei to the bone in his heart.
"My dear friend, does the wound still hurt?" Wang Lin pretended to be surprised and held back his laughter.
Zhao Ji's face turned red, he gritted his teeth and shook his head. He pondered for a while and then said: "It's still bearable. May I ask, little brother, where are you from and why did you offend Gao...Gao Yanei? What caused today's conflict?"
"I am Wang Lin, a native of Qinghe County, Shandong Province."
Zhao Ji was surprised and said: "Are you the newly rumored tiger-fighting hero in Shandong?"
Wang Lin said humbly: "It's me. I came to Tokyo to take the martial arts examination. That night I encountered the evil slaves in Gao Yanei who robbed Madam Zhang. I couldn't help but rescue her..."
Wang Lin told Zhang Zhenniang's origins and Gao Yanei's repeated persecution.
Zhao Ji suddenly realized it. He glanced at Zhang Zhenniang secretly and said to himself that this woman is as beautiful as a flower. No wonder Gao Yanei fell in love with her.
But at this moment, he was not in the mood to show off again, so he sighed and said: "That Gao Yanei is really hateful. He will go into a big fight over trivial matters. He really doesn't take the laws of the Song Dynasty seriously."
Wang Lin sneered: "My dear brother, what is this? That Gao Qiu and his son were corrupt and perverted the law, disrupted the imperial court, harmed the people, and made the people resentful. It is a pity that the old emperor in the palace was too stupid and incompetent. He sat back and watched the treacherous ministers in power, so that the people of Li
The people suffer, the country suffers!"
Zhao Ji blushed, curled up subconsciously, and said helplessly: "Brother, maybe the officials have their own reasons for being deceived by traitors."
Wang Lin glanced at Zhao Ji. He deliberately scolded Zhao Ji just to vent his anger and not embarrass Zhao Ji too much.
Hearing this, he accepted the idea and said with a smile: "Maybe. Anyway, if the emperor doesn't wake up and understand what the treacherous officials are doing, the whole Song Dynasty may be in danger."
Wang Lin didn't want to talk any more about this topic. He also knew that Zhao Ji was basically hopeless, so he immediately changed the subject: "I don't know, my dear friend... What's your surname?"
After Zhao Ji hesitated, he still raised his hand and said, "I am Zhao Ji, a native of Tokyo. His family is near Xiangguo Temple. He makes a living by selling paintings."
There is no need to worry about lying.
He actually gave him the same pseudonym as the emperor and returned it to the painter. Can an ordinary painter have the courage to go to a brothel to find Mr. Li?
Wang Lin secretly smiled in his heart, but said seriously: "My dear friend, I stabbed Gao Yanei this time, at least seriously. I am afraid that he has become the mortal enemy of Captain Gao. Now Gao Qiu is being searched all over the city... But, my dear friend, he is also
There is no need to worry, as long as I still have the courage to speak, I will protect my dear friend."
Zhao Ji's mouth twitched: "My little brother has saved Zhao's life, and I will repay you in the future!"
…
It's quiet at night.
[Wang Lin—Life 7.3, Intelligence 11, Martial Power 50, Reputation 30, Skills:... Yang Family Spear/Talk about Soldiers/Penetrate Yang with a Hundred Steps/Mandarin Duck Legs/Arrow Left and Right/Painting.]
It is becoming more and more difficult to increase the force value.
Your health and reputation are slowly increasing, so don't worry.
Fortunately, he copied Zhao Ji's skills.
He didn't know yet what the effect of painting was, but considering that Zhao Ji was good at calligraphy and painting skills, he was unparalleled in the world. This could make up for his shortcomings in this area as a modern person.
The chirping insects are in full swing in the courtyard.
Wang Lin briefly examined the attributes, then sat silently on the kang, looking at Zhao Ji who had fallen asleep with strange eyes.
He really didn't expect that when he traveled back in time to the late Northern Song Dynasty, he would sleep on the same bed as the Emperor of the Song Dynasty.
In fact, he was not worried that Gao Qiu's people would come to his door.
According to common sense, the emperor must have been missing in the palace at this moment.
And with the people from Fan Lou and Li Shishi as witnesses, Gao Qiu Ying wanted to reduce this matter to a trivial matter more than anyone else.
Otherwise, once it is exposed, what will happen if the emperor stabs Gao Yanei or kills him? Gao Qiu would not dare to let go of it.
But Gao Yanei kicked and injured the emperor, and the Gao family's soldiers chased him. The emperor almost died in Fanlou... The emperor took revenge, which was enough to kill the entire Gao family!
The key to the problem is how to get Zhao Ji to admit his identity, so that Wang Lin can take advantage of the situation and reverse the predicament.
Wang Lin thought about it and slowly lay down.
Zhao Ji actually wasn't asleep at all, he just closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
A dignified official of the Song Dynasty was in such a dangerous situation, and his crotch was severely injured. It was strange that he could sleep.
He was in shock at the moment and had been hesitating whether to inform Wang Lin of his identity and ask Wang Lin to take him back to the palace.
Zhao Ji tossed and turned and smiled bitterly when he heard Wang Lin snoring slightly beside the couch.
His family, a Song Dynasty official, actually slept in the same bed as a commoner boy. Remembering that Wang Lin was so brave when he was in Fanlou, he had mixed feelings in his heart.
