The autumn sun is rising high in the sky, pushing aside the cold fog in the morning and bringing a bit of warmth.
On the street, there are vendors selling goods, cooks walking the streets, and children laughing and playing.
Longxi Town seems to have returned to normal.
With the active cooperation of the government, there were basically no setbacks in the process of distributing Li's salt.
In less than two hours, most of the people had received enough salt and returned home contentedly.
The officials who helped maintain order also dispersed for a long time.
The rest either got wind of it late or came all the way from surrounding towns, so they hurried to the east of the town in scattered pieces.
It is said that when the Li Mansion applied salt, the government only helped to check the population information of each household. In the end, it was up to the Li Mansion to decide whether to provide salt and how much salt to give. It must be said that the Li Mansion handled the bowl of water very well.
Teach everyone that there is nothing wrong with it.
Of course, the Li Mansion did not stipulate that Jianghu people were not allowed to collect salt, but Bingyi and the others still did not take advantage of it.
After the eight people killed Yulin Long and Sha Qing, they went to Qiaonan.
Through the Linbei Gang who had ambushed there in advance, they found the Linbei Gang and asked them to sort out the mess on Tongjin Bridge.
In order to prevent the matter from getting too big, frightening the people, and making it impossible for the government to turn a blind eye, it will be of no benefit to everyone.
Without the Yulin Dragon, the Linbei Gang naturally did not have to fight with them, so they accepted the proposal as a reward for helping Bing Yi and others cut off the relationship.
Afterwards, the eight people did not rush to leave the town, but returned to the inn to catch up on their sleep.
Tracking the Yulin Dragon for days and battling with it in wits and courage had already exhausted the eight people physically and mentally.
Although judging from the aftermath, the arrangement of Yulin Dragon was not clever, and even some cleverness was misunderstood.
After all, it didn't take more than half an hour for Bingyi and the eight of them to go from stopping those carriages to Yulinlong's suicide this morning.
It would be better for Yulin Long to rest in the Li Mansion, then blend into the crowd to cross the bridge, while arranging Japanese ninjas to protect him secretly.
By then, Bing Yi and others will be constrained by the safety of the people present, and their hands and feet will be tied up.
This greatly increases the possibility of escape.
But the eight people who had gone through this morning's battle dared not deny that Yulin Long's plan was almost successful.
In order to completely get rid of the eight people, Yulin Long set up at least four checkpoints in Longxi Town to wait for them.
The first one is Li Mansion.
Suppose they went to Li's house in a daze because of the salt application.
No matter whether you go yesterday or today, you will either be controlled by the government for some reason, or you will be trapped in a sea of people. No matter how anxious you are, you can only let Yulin Long go away easily.
The second level is the sixteen carriages.
If sixteen carriages were in the same place, they would easily attract attention.
Not so with the sixteen scattered carriages.
The sixteen horse-drawn carriages rushing out from different alleys in the south of the town also confirmed the existence of a secret passage in the Li Mansion.
After everyone analyzed it, they didn't understand why the Yulin Dragon didn't sneak away through the secret underground passage at night.
We can only guess that Yulin Long either had murderous intentions towards them, or stayed in Li Mansion for one more day in order to get rid of the tracking method Mo Li left on him.
As for the sixteen carriages scattered in various places, one of their functions was to confuse their sight.
If Bing Yi and others acted separately, it would be difficult to stop every carriage traveling alone.
If he only pounces on one place, the possibility of stopping the Yulin Dragon's carriage will be greatly reduced.
The only way to crack it is on the bridge.
But when we got to the bridge, the second role of the sixteen carriages was revealed.
A scene like that of heavy cavalry rushing into battle on the battlefield, without any courage and ability, would never be able to stop the rumble of the horses and horses.
The third level is under the bridge.
Once on the bridge, sixteen carriages could be stopped, and then the fifty Japanese ninjas had a chance to take action.
The fourth level is located in the south of the bridge and is undoubtedly the most difficult level.
If Bing Yi and the others had chosen this place to stop the Yulin Dragon.
Then what they will face, in addition to sixteen speeding carriages and horses, fifty Japanese ninjas, Yulin Long and Sha Qing, there are also hundreds of Linbei gang members!
A hundred members of the Linbei Gang would probably be eliminated within a stick of incense if picked out alone. However, when the enemy has a large number of people, once one of our own is injured even a little bit, the disadvantage will be infinitely expanded to the point of affecting everyone's lives.
situation.
In the end, Yulin Long ended up committing suicide.
Perhaps it is because he always fights alone despite having many resources at his disposal.
The Li Mansion and the Linbei Gang could only obey orders, and Sha Qing and he were using each other, but it was difficult for them to work together to fight against the enemy.
Without the huge information support of the Red Sect, Yulin Longqiaofu would be unable to make a meal without straw.
With the opponent pressing harder and harder, the calculations one after another turned into a cocoon, forcing himself into an endless situation.
But the eight people in Bingyi came with the same purpose in mind. They thought in one place and worked hard in one place, so they got what they wanted.
Anyway, after working hard for the past few days, everyone was exhausted, and finally had a peaceful sleep.
After awakening, Bing Yi and others packed their bags and went to the restaurant with the best reputation in town to satisfy their cravings.
The Li Mansion's move to apply salt may have been done under duress, with the purpose of causing congestion in a short period of time and giving Yulin Dragon an opportunity to escape, but it could actually help the local people overcome the difficulty of salt shortage.
A household that has not opened a shop and operates a business can receive sixteen taels of salt.
Those who open restaurants and eateries will ration salt to three to one household depending on the size of the store.
Originally, ordinary people had to provide more salt in restaurants and restaurants, but with the generosity of Bing Yi and others, it was no problem to have a feast of authentic local delicacies.
The wait time for the food may be longer, but it does not prevent everyone from being in high spirits and chatting away.
As we chatted, the topic soon came to two important matters.
The first is when to set off back to Sanrenju.
The second one concerns the whereabouts of Xiaoan, Xiaolian and Xiaoying.
Although the actions of the three women along the way were no longer limited to seeking revenge from Yulin Long or Sha Qing, they showed a desire to follow the five Sanrenju people. However, they have always been in a low-key situation for a long time, which has always made them ashamed to speak out, and they are even more afraid of being exposed.
Refuse face to face.
But there is no such thing as a feast that lasts forever.
Both Yulin Long and Sha Qing died in front of them today.
They had no reason to follow the five Sanrenju people shamelessly.
"Ahem." Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly became heavy without realizing it, Mengfang pretended to be uncomfortable, coughed, put his fist in front of his mouth, and muttered to himself, "Well, this dish must be served a little slowly!"
When Xiao An heard this, he stood up and whispered: "I'll urge you."
However, Nangong Hanyu quickly grabbed Xiao An's sleeves and asked him to sit down again, saying: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, it's been too long since we stopped eating salt, and the restaurant hasn't opened the pot for a long time. Just wait a little longer, later."
Eating happily is the most important thing!”
Mengfang hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, no rush, no rush, that's not what I meant."
Bing Yi smiled slightly when he saw this and said: "The matter here is over. What are your plans next? You might as well tell me, Ali, you come first?"
Mo Li understood the meaning of Bing Yi's words and said: "I remember we have a month to find Yulin Dragon."
Bing Yi said: "Well, there seems to be a lot of time left now."
Nangong Hanyu rubbed his hands with a smile on his face and said, "Are you going to go sightseeing all the way back, or eating and drinking all the way back?"
Mrs. Wanqi, who was sitting next to Nangong Hanyu, raised her hand and poked his forehead with a smile, saying, "Aren't you afraid of gaining weight if you eat too much?"
Nangong Hanyu held Mrs. Wanqi's hand and said: "How could it be possible? The worst thing is that my sister will accompany me to walk more and ride less!"
Hearing that the topic was about to get sidetracked, Bing Yi was about to interrupt, but Mo Li said first, "I feel like things here are not yet finished."
Although Bing Yi was a little confused, he immediately answered: "What do you mean?"
Mo Li said: "The Japanese people ran away from us."
Mengfang's eyes lit up and he said: "After we have done our job of eradicating evil, these Japanese brats dare to come to Zhongzhou to cause trouble. We might as well go and destroy all their nests in Fujian!"
Bing Yi looked at Mo Li.
Mo Li nodded and said, "That's exactly what I meant."
Bing Yi said: "If that guy Gongsun knew about it, he would also support this plan."
After saying this, he looked at Mrs. Wanqi, Xiao An and others.
Mrs. Wanqi nodded slightly and said she had no objection.
The three girls, Xiao An, Xiao Lian and Xiao Ying, frowned and didn't know what to say.
Bing recalled: "This trip is different from pursuing the Yulin Dragon. The dangers and difficulties are unknown. Of course, the Japanese people may not be able to make any waves. You can make up your own mind whether you want to go with us."
Xiao An bravely expressed his position on behalf of the three of them: "Can we continue to stay with you?"
Bing Yi smiled and said: "As long as you are willing, Sanrenju welcomes you to join!"
