The little girl is only ten years old, but she is very thoughtful. She learned scheming from Teacher Yue, learned methods from Zhang Zhiwei, learned from Gu Santong... there is nothing to learn.
Anyway, those uncles and gentlemen in life and death are all her masters, and they all love and care for her very much.
But despite this, it is still a big challenge for a ten-year-old child to take a boat to the south of the Yangtze River. It is not that it is impossible to go, but it is very troublesome.
Fortunately, money can make all the difference, so the owner of the ship was tempted by the double money he paid for the ship.
Even though the sky was strange and many people were afraid to go out, the ship still set sail, and nothing strange happened along the way.
The boss of the ship also behaved himself and did not rob money or sex along the way. After all, anyone would be surprised to see a little girl smashing bricks with one hand.
The boss of the ship, who was so thoughtful at first, has simply withered away. After making money, he can sleep with all the courtesans in Baihua Tower, so why suffer here?
The voyage lasted for nearly half a month. In fact, it could have been faster, but I was in a good mood after traveling all the way, so I slowed down the trip.
But what she didn't know was that in the past half month, people in the Jia family were going crazy, or in other words, people in Shenjing were going crazy.
The two worlds collided with each other, and the first one to suffer was Shenjing. After all, this is the cultural center, and basically all the stories happen here. Although there are other places, they are rarely involved, so the target is nailed down.
to Shenjing.
The first episode, of course, is about the birth of a demon!
As the base camp of monsters, Calabash Mountain has a projection in the sky above Shenjing. People in Shenjing can see monsters appearing on Calabash Mountain every day, and the monstrous power of snake spirits and scorpion spirits is displayed from time to time, cracking mountains and cracking rocks.
It's light. The treasures in the hands of the snake spirit and the demon king's subordinates are the source of fear.
It's just that there is a thin layer of clouds and mist separating the sky and the earth. The demons seem to be unable to see the human world, but people are horrified to find that the mist is getting lighter every day.
After half a month, it has become extremely thin. One morning, the sun just rose.
Lin Daiyu finally came to the shore of Yangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River with the first ray of light in the morning. What she saw was not the people living and working in peace and contentment and the morning market at the dock.
People are panicked!
Four words can express the current environment of Jiangnan. The strange phenomena in the sky do not only affect Shenjing, but the closest to Shenjing can be seen most clearly. Although Jiangnan is far away, it can still be seen. This kind of faint
The sight of Yueyue only increased people's worries.
Various rumors spread widely under the propagation of thoughtful people, and evil cults began to spread here. The deceptive evil cult made the local officials here miserable, and even some of these officials became involved in the evil cult.
"Ghosts are rampant in the world. Old Mother Bailian has come to the world. Miss, look at this! The world..."
As soon as Lin Daiyu walked onto the pier, someone came up and delivered a leaflet. Paper is not cheap at all these days, and there are only a few people who can read.
The fact that they are willing to spend a lot of money to buy flyers shows how wealthy this evil cult is, and the use of words and pictures to promote it shows that the other party has very big plans.
When Lin Daiyu looked at the flyer in her hand, someone also stared at her.
The world is in chaos, which is a bad thing for ordinary people, but it is a good thing for those who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic.
It is unlikely to be caught doing bad things at this time. Even the officials in the yamen are hiding at home. Who else will hold them accountable?
Several people in the corner nodded to each other and walked towards Lin Daiyu. It is rare to see such a little girl.
In terms of appearance, temperament, and clothing, no matter how you look at it, she is a girl from a wealthy family. Such a little girl is usually raised in a boudoir. It is impossible to appear on weekdays. Now that she comes out alone, something must have happened in the family.
This is an opportunity for them.
The free movement of a few thieves could not be hidden from Lin Daiyu's perception, but she was going to the Yangzhou Salt Patrol Envoy's Yamen now, so she was not worried about this.
But she didn't expect that Jiangnan's situation was so bad that thieves would dare to rob someone on the street in broad daylight.
Seeing that they were about to arrive at the Yamen, the few people following him really couldn't wait to take action. Even though the situation was very chaotic, they did not dare to take action at the Yamen, but it would be fine before they arrived.
When a group of five people rushed over, the little maid Xueyan was stunned, but Zijuan was clever enough to grab the package and smash it, but unfortunately she was not strong enough to pose a threat.
Logically speaking, if three little girls were caught by five big and rough men, they would be able to capture them easily. Unfortunately, the results are always unexpected.
Picking up a bamboo pole at his feet, after a set of sword skills, the five strong men fell to the ground covered in bruises and held their heads, crying bitterly for a while.
"Stop, broad daylight... Miss? Why are you back, Miss?"
Hearing the sound of someone crying here, the people from the Yanxun Yamen finally ran over to check, and saw the owner's daughter beating five people with a bamboo pole.
Two little girls hid aside and clapped their hands and cheered, while five grown men lay on the ground yelling at each other. It looked so awkward.
When Lin Daiyu saw that someone was coming, and it was her father's men, she dropped the bamboo pole in her hand and said: "You are here, just in time, arrest these people, they just wanted to arrest us all."
There was no explanation as to why it was like this, just simple instructions, but the government officials didn't ask. When they heard that these guys had the guts to eat, they dared to attack the daughter of their own master. Is this okay? They were immediately arrested.
, don’t forget to give it a few firm blows when you catch it.
"Didn't Miss go to Shenjing? Why did you come back so suddenly and there was no news and no one escorted you? What's going on with the Jia family? It's such a big thing!"
The foreman of the yamen was an old man from the Lin family. He respected Lin Ruhai very much and had watched Lin Daiyu grow up.
I saw that Lin Daiyu came back alone, and there was no one escorting her or sending any paperwork in advance.
I just feel that my master has been insulted and my young lady has been neglected.
This was full of disrespect and contempt for the Lin family. How could he, a loyal servant, endure this?
That is to say, Lin Daiyu is fine. If something happens on the road, she is ready to fight with the Jia family.
Lin Daiyu waved her hand nonchalantly and said, "It's okay. I wanted to come back by myself, but the Jia family wouldn't let me, so I ran back secretly. Where is my father? I'll go find him."
Seeing that Lin Daiyu didn't care, the servant showed a wry smile. Fortunately, the lady was fine, otherwise the two families would have to break up. However, he still informed Lin Daiyu of her father's whereabouts.
Lin Daiyu went to find her father, but the servant didn't ask a single question about her skills. Isn't it good that my lady has skills? At least she doesn't have to worry about her safety in the future.
But if those guys dared to attack his young lady, there would be no need to mention the consequences. He had to teach them a lesson.
Not to mention the trouble this loyal servant ran into to find a few kidnappers, Lin Daiyu met her father in the yard.
Looking at my father's back from a distance, I just feel that he has aged several years, and even his hair is a little gray.
It was all because of these official matters. Lin Daiyu didn't know how complicated the affairs of the yamen were before, but since studying with Teacher Yue, she knew.
In addition, the uncles and uncles who taught her all have their own careers, such as the Golden Snake Emperor Xia Xueyi and the domineering (eight-sword) monarch Ren, who are all emperor-level players.
From their descriptions, we can tell how cumbersome these official duties are. I didn't understand why my father was so tired before and why he didn't have time to play with me. It became clear then.
Anyway, she is a sensible child who feels sorry for her father, and she also knows how dangerous her father's position is.
My father was from the line of the Supreme Emperor and was in charge of the Jiangnan Salt Patrol Yamen. In fact, he collected the salt tax and was basically the person who managed the money bag of Jiangnan.
He provided money to the emperor, but he was not the emperor's confidant. Instead, he was a person who belonged to the emperor. The emperor did not trust him, and the emperor refused to resign.
But there were too many people offended in this position. Basically, no one was laid off safely, and they all died violently.
Lin Ruhai was frightened when she first took over this position. Sure enough, things happened to her family one after another. First, her son died when he was three years old, and then his wife also died.
For the safety of his daughter, he could only reluctantly send his daughter to the Jia family, hoping to get the protection of the Jia family. As for himself, he wanted to find out who killed his son and wife and avenge them.
As for his own safety, it was the least of his concerns. The dowry that should be left to his daughter had already been left behind.
It is expected that other money will be annexed by the family after his death. After all, Lin Daiyu's daughter's family cannot get these, so it is better to separate early.
With the Jia family protecting me, there is no risk of being bullied.
How did Lin Ruhai know that the support he found for his daughter would be the source of Lin Daiyu's sadness in the future? At this time, he was feeling sad.
I thought I was about to flex my muscles to find the murderer who killed my wife and son.
As a result, strange phenomena appeared in the sky outside, and officials colluded with evil cults inside, causing chaos in Yangzhou. They couldn't even get out, let alone investigate the truth.
Lin Ruhai suddenly hated himself, why he was just a weak scholar.
If you are a warrior who commands thousands of troops, you will have military power in your hands.
Let alone the chaos in this small Yangzhou, if it swept across the entire Jiangnan, who would dare to resist me?
Lin Ruhai: "Hey, I don't know how my daughter is doing in Shenjing. Shenjing is not peaceful now. There are no letters from the Jia family. I don't know what happened. I didn't reply to the letters after I sent them. Is that right?
Didn’t receive it? Or...it was just the wrong time to go!"
Lin Ruhai really regretted it. After all, he was a person with information channels and knew more information than ordinary people.
He knows better than outsiders what the situation in Shenjing is now, so he doesn't expect anyone to manage the already chaotic Yangzhou.
