Chapter three hundred and ninety seventh public grievances
As the sun sets, on the official road outside Taiping Road City, dead branches tremble in the wind, making a whimpering sound.
The dockers built simple houses, medicinal materials and cloth, grain shops, warehouses and warehouses here, all in rows and rows.
Almost all of these shops have their doors closed, leaving only flags and cloth swaying in the wind.
Li Jun frowned. In the past, this place was very lively. The coolies on the dock were carrying goods, and they were all working happily. They were not afraid of exerting effort. Only when they had to work could they eat. The more and heavier the goods, the happier they were.
"Brother, why are you so quiet? Is there an ambush?"
Li Jun cursed angrily: "What an ambush? We are no longer salt sellers. How could the government ambush us?"
Tong Meng touched his scalp and said with a smile: "I haven't gotten over it yet in this Jiangnan area."
Going further, we saw men in ragged clothes sitting by the river, their bodies covered in blood, and there were many lying on the roadside, moaning and wailing.
Li Jun walked up to a man and asked, "Sir, we brothers went out and have only just returned. Why has Taiping Road fallen into such a situation?"
The man was leaning on a stone when several well-dressed people suddenly appeared. He was startled, got up staggeringly, and was about to run away.
Hearing Li Jun's familiar Jiangnan accent, he turned around, waved and said: "Hurry up, hurry up, you're coming back at the wrong time."
"Not the right time?"
The man looked around cautiously to make sure there were no police officers, and then his frightened expression relaxed.
He took a deep breath and said: "The imperial court sent people to forcibly recruit the strong men in the city, saying that they wanted to transport some birds, flowers, stones and gangsters. If you have some silver at home, you can still pay the money and be done with it. If you don't have any, you can come and do hard work. Let's
They are all working hard, I am not afraid at all
Well, the people coming from Bianliang are not human beings, they are a group of evil spirits. They don’t want you to work hard, they must pay you, otherwise they will beat you to death. If you pay once and it doesn’t work, they will come again every three to five, and they will squeeze you into bankruptcy.
That’s when I gave up.”
Next to him, a weaker man stretched out his hand and said: "Brother, looking at your well-dressed clothes, you must have some money. But you'd better run away. No matter how rich your family is, you can't resist the exploitation of these beasts. Look at that, he's dead
The old man is a member of the city, and his family is quite wealthy, and he is one of the richest households in the world like us. Now, all the land deeds and property are gone, and even the daughter who has not left the court has been sold to a brothel to pay off debts."
Li Jun looked sharply and said: "Jiangnan Road is the homeland of good guys like us, how can we escape?"
"My arms can't twist my thighs. Behind them are the big shots in Bianliang. Our Jiangnan Province government and army are all colluding with them. You can't fight them."
Li Jun asked Tong Wei to take out some dry food from his bag and distribute it to these people. The man held it in his hand and bit it with all his strength, regardless of whether he did it or not.
"How can you, a man like you, eat like this? If you don't drink water, you will choke to death." Tong Wei opened the water bag and cursed.
This is not a joke, it is not uncommon for someone to choke to death if he is stuffed with dry food like this.
When people around saw someone handing out dry food, they all moved this way.
Li Jun raised his head, looked at the undignified villagers, clenched his fists and said: "The master is right, this imperial court is rotten!"
Huashi Gang travels by water, Jiangnan Road is crisscrossed by rivers, and there are boat channels everywhere.
If you want to take advantage of this opportunity to develop your power in Jiangnan Road, Li Jun is the most suitable candidate.
The Song Dynasty had been at ease for too long. They concentrated the wealth of the country in Bianliang for the enjoyment of the kings, grandsons, nobles, ministers and officials.
Jiangnan Road, which had always been prosperous, had been starving for decades after decades of exploitation, and Zhao Ji still had to transport flowers and stones.
This is equivalent to adding salt to the wounds of Gangnam Road.
Moreover, Fang La was still rebelling in Jiangnan Road at this time. Song Ting's behavior was like driving the people with a knife to join Fang La in the rebellion.
Zongze was so angry that he vomited blood in the military camp and almost fainted.
Although the accumulated public dissatisfaction in Jiangnan Province has not completely erupted at this time, people with a discerning eye have already seen that the public dissatisfaction has reached an uncontrollable situation.
Li Jun took a look at the long rivers. These densely crisscrossed waterways once brought prosperity and well-being here, but now they have become life-threatening ropes.
"Walk!"
Several men followed Li Jun and walked away——
Bianliang, Zhengjing Gate.
Li Yu looked at the girl in front of him, feeling vaguely impressed.
Suddenly, the girl seemed to feel very uncomfortable, and two shells appeared on her body.
The little girl timidly shrank her body into the clam shell, and the clam shell quickly closed, leaving only a small gap. She crawled inside the shell and looked at Li Yu with a pair of watery eyes.
She had just transformed and was still a baby to the world. Ao Lie was also very ambitious, so he let her come to Bianliang alone.
After transforming, she has not yet fully adapted to it, but now she feels better in the shell, and her face is slowly turning rosy.
Only then did Li Yu remember that at Zhengjing Lake, Ao Lie asked him to help her set up a spirit gathering array just for this little clam spirit. Li Yu chuckled and said, "So it's you, where is Ao Lie?"
"His Highness left, followed by a monk and a monkey." The little clam girl blushed. She didn't come out often. She sniffed the scent of Li Yu with her little nose. The little girl was a little dizzy when she was near a male for the first time.
"Golden Chanzi?"
Li Yu looked at the little clam in front of him and suddenly became nervous.
"Did they say where they went?"
After Li Yu finished speaking, he secretly prayed that he should never come to the Song Dynasty.
My plan did not involve the civil strife in Buddhism. If it broke out in the Song Dynasty, it would definitely affect my plan.
The strength of Buddhism is so powerful that one or two ancient temples have thousands of years of foundation.
There are countless eminent monks from all over the world. Once civil strife breaks out in Buddhism, the forces will definitely be reshuffled.
If he hates his superior position again and integrates the power of Buddhism, Zhengjing Sect and Shenxiao Palace combined will not be enough to defeat them. The difference in numbers alone is a hundred and eighty thousand miles.
"That monk said he was going to cleanse the land with blood."
"The pure land is washed with blood?" Li Yuchang breathed a sigh of relief. Where is the pure land? It's not in Bianliang anyway.
Did you go to Tianzhu?
Li Yu was gloating in his heart. The farther they went, the better. Jin Chanzi cooperated with Sun Wukong. Now the white dragon horse has returned to his position. He also pulled Bajie Shaseng and they were all alive.
They fight to the west, but it is not a simple level like Eighty-one. Buddhas all over the sky may jump out to kill them.
Li Yu chuckled, waved to the little Taoist boy next to him and said, "Take her to find Jin Lian, give her a room, and build a wooden house by the lake in the middle of the door."
"Yes, Headmaster."
Xiaodaotong stood up with his hands on the ground, clapped his hands and said, "Come with me."
