Chapter 12 The common people are bandits

Half a year passed in a hurry. Under the instructions of Master Puji and other brothers, Lin Su returned to the mountain as he wished. But the moment he walked down Shaoshi Mountain, he felt empty in his heart. It seemed that there was a feeling that was hard to let go.

His footsteps.

After five years, you can't just give up. Only those who have experienced it personally will understand the feeling.

After renting a bay-red horse from the inn, Lin Su embarked on his way home. Lin Su's home is in Anyang County, Anyang County, Liangzhou. His family is a business family, and can be considered a somewhat obscure businessman family.

When he was a child, Lin Su was frail and sick, so his father sent him to the Shaolin Temple to pray for safety. He stayed there for five years and had no news at all. He had no idea what was going on at home or whether his parents were well.

It is more than 600 miles from Shaolin Temple to Anyang, passing through seven counties in Fengyang County. If you take the fast commercial road, you can get home in one day and one night. If you take a shortcut, it will take eight hours.

Every 50 miles along the trade route, there is a border-guarding post house set up by the government for the caravans to rest and inspect the surroundings to prevent bandits and bandits from causing trouble. Of course, the caravans need to pay a certain amount of tolls when passing the post house.

Lin Su didn't care about the small amount of money, but he had not returned home for several years. He missed him so much that the trail was undoubtedly the fastest. As for the thieves, if there were blind bandits who were caught with guns, he wouldn't mind killing a few more.

Good and evil values.

The horse quickly walked until they reached the dense woods, and Lin Su noticed something was wrong. In such a large forest, it was impossible not to have a single bird, and he could not hear the cries of insects. If something went wrong, there must be a monster.

Suddenly, a big man walked out from behind a big tree where three people were hugging each other. He carried a big knife with both hands on his shoulders, and his bare arms revealed various scars. When the man saw Lin Su tightening the reins, he immediately grinned and said with a serious smile: "Little brother, you are walking very well."

You are anxious and tired, why not sit down and have a cup of tea at my brother's house, my brother is the most generous."

While he was talking, eleven or two big men with swords surrounded Lin Su, staring at him with a sinister smile.

"The knife in your hand has never killed anyone, has it?" Lin Su calmly stepped down from the horse and said calmly. He was a little helpless. Although these people are also ferocious-looking, they are all pretending, and they have never been killed.

People can tell just by smelling their scent that there is no smell of blood at all. Let alone killing people, it is estimated that they have not killed an animal for a long time, so they still want to imitate people and become robbers?

He heard at the inn that there was a serious drought in Liangzhou this year. Three counties had no harvests. Several other counties were also affected, with the value of grain output reduced by more than 30%. Just after the drought passed, locusts visited their land again and many people starved to death.

, some people had no choice but to go up the mountain and become bandits.

They are all simple farmers who took this step in order to survive.

"So brave, I actually started to show off with you." The big man walked over arrogantly, hung the big knife on Lin Su's neck, and said arrogantly: "Boy, take out all the money, don't hide it secretly, be careful that the knife doesn't have eyes."

Lin Su dismounted under the pull of someone. He glanced at the crowd of people who were waiting for help, and couldn't bear to shake his head, "I don't have much silver on me, only two taels of broken silver. If you don't mind, take them all. This horse belongs to the inn, wait."

I will give it back, and I can’t let you take it away.”

The government was colluding to conceal the disaster, and the court's efforts to provide disaster relief were inconclusive. As a result, more and more people had to leave their hometowns. The government, on the other hand, suppressed the bandits for the sake of justice and handed over their heads to the court. This was a certain mountain bandit.

Where do you commit crimes such as theft, murder, robbery, etc., which are really heinous, and then you happily receive the reward, regardless of whether the person was wronged or not, he pushed at the door of the vegetable market and beheaded quickly, even if there is something unreasonable about the matter,

Even dead people cannot speak.

The man took the money, but said, "That's not up to you. The master has taken a liking to this horse. Third brother, take the horse."

Lin Su sighed, why didn't anyone listen to him?

The Arhat Fist was printed on the big man's chest, causing him to roll two or three feet like a gourd on the ground. This was the result of Lin Su restraining his strength, otherwise a Dacheng Arhat Fist would have directly killed this man.

The big man took a mouthful of mud, spurted it out, and yelled like a ghost: "You guys are so dumbfounded, go ahead and fuck him."

A dozen big men rushed forward with ferocious looks on their faces, and started slashing indiscriminately. Lin Su could clearly see that these men were using the backs of their knives to attack people. Only one or two of them were using the blades, but they were just trying it out, and they didn't dare to use any force at all. Such an attack.

How could it be possible to break through Dacheng Iron Clothes' defense?

Boom!

As soon as the golden bell was opened, the dozens of people surrounding him were pushed back. Those people looked at Lin Su as if they had seen a ghost, and none of them even forgot to run away. Lin Su picked up the scarred man who fell to the ground with one hand and said

: "The idea you just had is a good one. I happen to be free to accompany you for a walk up the mountain. Please lead the way."

Hearing this, all the big men knelt down and said, "Sir, spare your life. We are all little thieves who have just gone up the mountain. We have never done anything harmful to nature. If you are not satisfied, just kill us to satisfy your hatred. It is better not to go up the mountain."

"Stop nagging and go up the mountain." Under Lin Su's threat, the big men gritted their teeth and led the way.

There were some differences between Shan Shan and Lin Su's thoughts. He originally thought that the old man who became a bandit was a burden and would be given up if he had to, while women were commodities and the price of the transaction. But when he saw them now, he secretly thought that those storytellers were mistaken.

Children.

People all live in caves. The old people, children, women, and strong men are the ones he saw at the foot of the mountain. The others are basically skinny and desolate people.

Seeing the big man and others coming up with a stranger, an old woman angrily pinched the big man's ears and cursed, "Tie Zhu, are you so heartless? You all told me not to let you go down the mountain to do those bad things of blocking roads and robbing people."

, why don’t you listen? It’s good that you kidnapped someone, are you still planning to do the same thing as the kidnapper?”

Tie Zhu begged for mercy in pain, and said with a mournful face: "Mom, this little brother...he came up on his own."

As soon as Tie Zhu told him what had happened, the old woman slapped Tie Zhu in the face and cursed: "If you don't get punished for what you did today, you will get punished tomorrow. Why don't you listen to me even if I tell you everything?"

After saying that, she knelt down to Lin Su and said, "Brother, these rude people are ignorant, please ignore the villain's fault and let them go. I guarantee that they will never do such a thing again in the future."

As soon as Lin Su helped one, the other old people, children, and women all knelt down like dominoes. His scalp was numb and he said, "Old man, are you ruining my life? Get up quickly. Get up."

After some coaxing, he called everyone up and took a rough look at the people. There were at least one or two hundred people, mostly old people and children who were powerless. This was a big camp.

"Old man, how many people are there here?" Lin Su asked.

The old man said: "The whole village is here. We have no choice. The famine is serious, the government is inactive, and taxes are heavy. So we moved the village to this mountain. We just make a living by eating some wild fruits and vegetables. We are lucky."
