Lin Chong was wandering on the street, thinking about how to meet a group of bandits naturally. However, his problem did not last long, because meeting a group of bandits in Ivory Hill was as easy as eating a bowl of rice.
However, before he could get ready to meet the bandits, he encountered a group of rebels.
This group of people claimed to be the Chuang King's team, and they ran around in the village asking the villagers to provide them with food and silver. To be honest, Lin Chong could only describe their attitude as robbing.
Didn't Li Zicheng fight in Shanhaiguan? Then where did this group of rebels come from? Most of the people dared to be angry but dare not speak out. When someone came to the house, they could only take things obediently.
Lin Chong was alone with only two children, so it was very convenient for him to hide. But later he really couldn't stand it anymore, and saw that this group of people didn't even leave food rations for the next meal.
Lin Chong couldn't help but stood up: "Brother, isn't King Chuang fighting with the Manchus in Shanhaiguan now? You don't ask for military rations and salaries from officials, how can you collect them from here?"
"Where are you from, kid? I'm working hard on the front lines, and you're hiding in the back enjoying peace and quiet. What's wrong with asking you for something now?"
"It's okay to ask for something, but if you look at this family, they are old, weak, sick, and disabled. Don't take it from such a family!"
"Who are you? Is it your turn to speak here? Where did you come from?" The leader, a sharp-mouthed monkey, glared at Lin Chong.
A muscular man next to him also glared at Lin Chong: "One look at your clothes will tell you that you are a young man from a rich family. You are trying to avoid military service by taking a few pennies. People like you are the most useless."
Qualified to speak."
Lin Chong frowned: "How do you know I relied on money to avoid military service?"
The thin man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks sneered disdainfully: "If not, why are you standing here now?"
"Oh, aren't you standing here now? So you relied on money to avoid military service? That's not right. It doesn't look like you can afford the money. Could it be that you came back as deserters, right?
"
When he accidentally told the truth, both the muscular man and the thin man became very angry. The man behind him came up with an iron bar and wanted to hit him.
Lin Chong put away his smile and asked innocently: "What do you want to do? I'm just talking casually, is it really a deserter? As far as I know, according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, being a deserter is not a light crime.
"
Mu Mu stood in front of Lin Chong with Po Jun on his back, showing no fear on his face.
Seeing that the two sides were about to start a fight, Lin Chong smiled and pushed the wood behind him. "Don't worry, everyone. What can such poor families do? In this way, just think of me as apologizing to you. Why don't I
How about inviting some of you to my house for a good drink and some rest."
The thin man and the strong man looked at each other, and they both felt that Lin Chong was afraid of them and wanted to use money to ward off the disaster. While they despised the rich kid for having no backbone, they greedily thought about how much money this kid's family could bring.
Lin Chong made a gesture of invitation, and the group followed him. A smirk flashed in Lin Chong's eyes, and he led the group to a remote place in a hurry.
When they arrived at a dark alley, the look in the thin man's eyes changed: "Boy, what are you trying to do? Where is your home?"
"Don't worry, military lords. I've arrived at my house and I'm about to entertain you all. If you don't believe me, look at it." Before Lin Chong could finish his words, a pile of stones hit the deserters head-over-heels.
Lin Chong rubbed his chin and thought to himself: Could it be that someone was deducting their funds? Why did they even use stones? If he hadn't been assured of the level of the secret guards, Lin Chong would have been really afraid that they would accidentally injure him.
After a torrent of rocks came down, Lin Chong's eyes widened because he next saw the hidden weapon specially used by the secret guards in the palace. Just now...
Seeing the group of deserters being beaten and running away in embarrassment, a group of people jumped down from the roof and laughed and laughed at the ruffians.
Lin Chong was completely stunned. He stared at the group of people blankly.
The leader was a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He came over and patted Lin Chong on the shoulder: "Brother, those above are your people. I saw that they are very skilled, but we have already wanted to teach this group a lesson."
I’m a human being, I’ll take advantage of you this time.”
Lin Chong's head was still a little slow, and the sentimental group was waiting for him to bring them here. When he thought of the ferocity with which they threw stones just now, and how confidently he stood beside him without dodging or dodging, Lin Chong
After a while I was afraid.
"Who are you?" This was the first thing Lin Chong asked when he came back to his senses. "We, we are hunters living in the mountains."
"Hunters living in the mountains?" Lin Chong suspected that there are no hunters living in the mountains of Ivory Hill. Even if they are hunters, they are not hunting wolves and rabbits. "I'm afraid you are hunting businessmen here!" Lin Chong
Smiled slyly.
The man was not particularly surprised that he could guess his identity. He also smiled and said: "In that case, you look strange to me. You must not be from this town."
Lin Chong nodded and admitted: "To tell you the truth, I am indeed not a local here. I didn't expect to encounter such a thing here, let alone meet all the heroes by such a fate."
The man with thick eyebrows and big eyes was named Yang Sanzhen. He was originally an ordinary farmer here, but later the war became too fierce. Soldiers always came here to plunder the people's wealth. They had no choice but to take up weapons to protect them.
nearby villagers.
They just stayed like this and had no source of income. In the end, they had no choice but to come up with this trick of robbing the rich and giving to the poor. Slowly, more and more people came to join them, so they simply settled on this mountain.
.
Lin Chong said oh, and suddenly suggested: "Can I go and have a look at your cottage?"
Yang Sanzhen was a little wary: "Why do you want to go to our place?"
Lin Chong said the reason he had thought about for a long time: "These people have just been taught a lesson by me here, and they will definitely not give up. I am not a local, and I haven't thought about where to live, so I want to go to your place for shelter first."
Stay out of the limelight and avoid hurting other people.”
Yang Sanzhen actually wants to say that there are so many guards with high martial arts skills around you, what can he do to you if he comes to you. But after all, he just used his name to express his anger, and now he seems to be afraid of trouble when he says evasive words.
people.
So he patted his chest and agreed: "No problem, little brother, if you are not afraid, just follow us."
Lin Chong nodded excitedly. He had long wanted to visit the lair of these bandits. And he was really worried that these people would come back.
