Astral Apostle

Anlin mansion, the back hall of the mansion.

State officials gathered outside the house, anxiously awaiting the results of the prefect's treatment.

Finally, the gray-bearded old man came out with a medicine box, and the officials of the large and small state capitals who were waiting around immediately surrounded him.

"How is Mr. Lin's injury?"

A prefect confidant asked impatiently.

The old man shook his head and said helplessly: "I saved the life of the prefect for the time being, but I can only breathe a sigh of relief, and I don't know when I will wake up. I have left two prescriptions, one for decoction and one for external use. After ten days and a half months, my life will be fine... but, the arm is disabled, and the old man can't do anything."

Hearing this, everyone rushed into the room to check the situation.

As soon as you enter the house, the strong and pungent smell of medicine blows in your face.

I saw Lin Zhifu lying on the bed with his eyes closed, his face pale, a wet towel on his forehead, a splint on his broken leg, and a broken right arm at the elbow. The blood was stopped, and the injury was barely under control.

Seeing this scene, all the officials took a step, and their faces showed heavy expressions, as if they were all in grief, but in fact they had their own thoughts.

Lin Zhifu, as a disciple of Qin Xiang, naturally has many people who cling to him, but now he has suffered this disaster, lost his arm, and his career has ended.

Many officials secretly served him, and while they were sad, they were anxious about who to climb after losing their backers.

Some of the officials who did not deal with them were secretly delighted and pretended to be sad, while others had flickering eyes and scheming.

A confidant of the prefect was not reconciled, and asked the old man, "You are a famous doctor in Anlin's house, so you really can't continue the broken arm?"

The old man smiled bitterly and said helplessly:

"This lord, although this old man can regenerate bones, he doesn't know how to renew his broken limbs. Xinglin's wonderful hands with such medical skills, apart from the imperial doctor, as far as I know, there are only three people in the folk..."

The prefect's confidant suddenly lit up and hurriedly said, "Which three are they?"

Lao Langzhong had no choice but to answer: "'Golden Needle Langzhong' Sun Boqing, 'Miao Shou' Zhang Jinduan, 'Qing San Zhenren' Ge Tong... It's just that none of them practice medicine in Jingzhou, so even if they are called in the future, it will be useless.

Once the broken arm has passed for half a day, the immortals will not be able to connect. "

Hearing this, the prefect's confidant died.

At this time, an official next to him coughed and moved away from the topic, and said solemnly:

"The prefect of a place was maimed by the green forest gangster. This is no trivial matter. It will definitely shock the government and the public. It is necessary to write an official document as soon as possible, and send it to Beijing with 100,000 fires. In addition, this Chen Feng is extremely sinful and mad, and the yamen has rushed to prepare the documents for sea arrest. , send officials to report to the Luhe prefectures, and post them along the road, this person will be arrested and brought to justice!"

Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

No matter whether the prefect survives or not, there must be an explanation for this matter, and the thieves who murdered the court officials must not be let go.

Not only is it related to the majesty of the government, but the officials present are afraid that they will follow in their footsteps, and they are both afraid and angry.

This Chen Feng dared to injure an officer, one has two, who knows if this thief will attack again in the future... The news that the Lu family received the thief's iron spear has spread all over the state, and Mr. Lu eats this Frightened, bedridden, and these state officials are also secretly afraid.

If they didn't get rid of this Chen Feng, they would also have trouble sleeping and eating. With such a murderer at large, everyone just felt that officials were not living well.

At this time, an official rolled his eyes slightly and said solemnly: "When the prefect was killed, the military commander Deng Zhi was nearby, but he sat and watched the prefect was killed by the thieves, turned his head and fled, letting the thieves swagger away. It is obviously a crime against the guards, and must be severely punished! In my opinion, I will immediately shackle him, hold a court trial, and issue a rod to serve as an example!"

"It makes sense, this Deng Zhi is about to escape, and he must not be forgiven lightly!"

Everyone nodded.

The murder of the prefect has a lot to do with it. Someone must be responsible. Naturally, someone needs to take the blame, and this Deng Zhi is completely sent to the door, which is not wronged in the eyes of many officials.

Moreover, Deng Zhi made a bad start. If these warrior guards fled without fighting but were not blamed, who would protect their safety, so he had to take this typical operation.

...

Lu House.

Since the day he received the letter from Zhou Jing's iron gun, Lu Ancheng fell ill, and the entire Lu family closed their doors to thank guests.

People up and down the mansion were panicked, frightened, and fearful, and the fear that urged Yan Luo to come to the mansion someday in the future, let them follow in the footsteps of the He Huang family.

"The people in charge of the He Huang family have died in seventy-eighty-eight ways. They exist in name only. There is no one in charge of the family business, and they will inevitably be eaten by others in the future."

"Will my Lu family end up like this one day?"

In the main hall, the owners of the houses gathered together, all looking worried.

At this time, Lu Ancheng was sick in bed and did not come to discuss it. Everyone could only discuss how to deal with Zhou Jing's iron spear biography.

"Then if you don't catch Yama, he will hang on my head one day! These thieves don't even care about the prefect, how can they give up on me? I think we still split up the family property and run for our lives. go!"

"No! The head of the family is not there, how dare you talk about the separation of the family, and this matter is humiliating! It is better to move the family out of Anlin Mansion and go to other places to operate."

"It's absurd, my Lu family has several generations of family business, and its power is strong, how can I easily give it up? Besides, the strong dragon does not suppress the local snakes. When I give up the foundation and go to other prefectures, I will become a sweet pastry in the eyes of the local tyrants. I just want to scrape bones and flesh from my body, and I will never allow outsiders to stand firm! This Anlin mansion will be on strict guard after this incident, and the thieves may not dare to come back, I will hire more That's it for the nurses with high martial arts skills!"

Many members of the Lu family held their own opinions and argued endlessly.

At this moment, Lu Ancheng walked into the hall with a cane, trembling and trembling, his body was weak, and his whole person seemed to be ten years old.

Everyone hurriedly shut their mouths and got up to welcome Lu Ancheng to sit on the throne.

Lu Ancheng took a seat, took a breath, looked around at everyone, and said slowly: "I have thought about it for the past few days. From now on, the weak will be strong. Money seeks to make a living. In addition, no matter whether the main family is divided, the males of each house cannot all live in the same state capital.”

Everyone was shocked.

Someone hurriedly advised:

"Patriarch, how does this make it happen? My Lu family's foundation is split like this, no matter the main family or all parties, they are reduced to the same as ordinary wealthy households, and the grand situation of the family will not return to the past!"

Lu Ancheng glared, propped up his weak body, and shouted angrily:

"The prefect is implicated by me and others, and now I don't know whether to live or die, the imperial court will definitely pursue it, and at the same time, there is that urging Yama to covet, and the collapse of my Lu family is right in front of my eyes! I don't know if the disaster is coming, and I still think about the prestige and power of the past, I really don't know whether to live or die! The reason for the division of the Lu family is to not be wiped out and continue. In the past, the wealth of the family can still benefit the descendants of the future, and no matter how bad it is, they can still be a rich family. In politics, business or buying land, there is still a chance to be on one side in the future!”

Everyone was speechless, seeing that Master Lu had made up his mind, even if some people were unwilling, they could only obey.

...

Wujiazhuang.

Wu Zheng has been staying here for a few days with dozens of servants from the Lu family.

After coming back this time, he felt that things were right and wrong.

Every time I went back to my hometown, most of the villagers would greet him when they saw him, and the shops would give him some small items, and everyone was very friendly.

But this time, Wu Zheng was stunned to find that his treatment was completely different. Walking in the village, he would be guarded and disgusted by the villager at any time. Almost everyone ignored him, and he became an unwelcome person.

"Sure enough, it's a bunch of ungrateful people."

While Wu Zheng was secretly resentful, he didn't forget to do his business, and brought people back to Wu's Zhuangzi as a place to stay.

However, almost all the items in the home were removed, and the family care homes were scattered, leaving only a handful of loyal butlers and servants to protect their families.

The local village elders and wealthy households knew that the Wu family had children who could be in charge in the prefecture, so they did not embarrass the Wu family, but they did not prevent the villagers from looting the Wu family.

Wu Zheng felt that this was not necessarily a good intention, because he found that the rich villagers who used to flatter and please their faces now saw him with a smile and a meaningful look.

The household items were evenly divided by the village husband. Even if Wu Zheng was angry, he would not be able to grab it back for a while, so he could only ignore it for the time being.

During this period of time, he mainly visited the property situation, and found that his fertile fields were all occupied by the villagers. He went to the door to ask for the seller's land deeds in the hands of these villagers as evidence, but was almost surrounded by the villagers.

Fortunately, he was protected by the family of the Lu family, and the villager did not dare to do anything to him, so he was safe from danger.

The buyer's land deed was burnt to the ground, and he had to go to the county government office to make up for it. It was necessary to use some money to get involved, and I don't know if it would be hindered by others.

The Butterfly Army on the Windowsill

However, as soon as Wu Zheng thought that there was Master Lu behind him, he felt relieved and felt that this would happen.

On this day, Wu Zheng took the family members of the Lu family to look for them on the street, and suddenly heard the screeching of horses' hooves.

Many villagers turned their heads and saw that a few officials had entered the village with their horses, and then dismounted in front of the official government board set up in the village, took out a few official government board texts from their luggage, and posted them as notices.

Immediately afterwards, a few officials sounded the gong, which attracted the surrounding villagers to watch and shout loudly:

"Chen Feng, the thief, made a riot in the Anlin Mansion, wounded the officials of the imperial court, massacred the rich and tyrannical gentry, and trampled on the king's law. The crime cannot be forgiven! If you see this person, you must report it to the yamen, and you can get your own reward!"

Gu boring

Wu is literate, and when he leaned over to read the list, he knew at a glance that it was a sea capture document.

The list contains the specific deeds of Chen Feng, but omits the details of the prefect's serious injuries, mainly emphasizing that he killed the second family of He and Huang, and also said that he would kill the other two wealthy families in the future, next to the portrait.

When Wu Zheng saw the name of the Lu family in the list, he was shocked. After reading it carefully, he secretly rejoiced that it was not the Lu family who suffered, and couldn't help but feel scared.

If the Lu family is removed, then his last backer will be gone, and the family property will never be recovered.

"Speaking of which, isn't this Chen Feng the thief who killed me in Wujiazhuang? How dare this person make a riot in the prefecture, even the court officials?!"

Wu Zheng only felt his mouth dry and his heart beating wildly.

The death of his relatives at the hands of Zhou Jing caused his family property to be taken away. Naturally, he had hatred in his heart, but he was more afraid... How could a white body with no power to tie the chickens, how could it be good to meet a strong man? Wu Zheng was glad more than once that he was studying in the state capital and never went home.

Moreover, Wu Zheng thought about it early and thought that for himself, thinking about revenge before becoming famous would only be a distraction, and getting famous is the most important thing in life.

As long as you become an official, you will have power, and revenge will naturally be a problem, and you don't have to worry about your life, which is much more cost-effective.

Just because he had a reason to keep filial piety, he wanted to devote himself to studying hard when he got his property back home, and took this opportunity to study his knowledge and ignore everything else.

However, at this time, seeing Zhou Jing's deeds that even the imperial court officials dared to fight, Wu Zheng couldn't help being terrified.

With the official body, there is the protection of the king's law, and it should be respected by others, but how dare such a grass-roots person start.

If you can't get privileges, you are different from the grass-roots and superior to others, so why should you study the examiner?

If you become an official in the future, if you want to find trouble with such thieves, your life will still be threatened... Then why risk such a lowly muddy leg?

After all, if it is really difficult to get into the fame, then there will be a broad prospect, and a life of prosperity is just around the corner...

Wu Zheng's mind was in a turmoil, and heaven and man were at war.

Subconsciously, he has no urgency for revenge, and his fear of Chen Feng has deepened.

...

Zhou Jing and his party were far away from Anlin Mansion when the state officials posted documents for sea arrest everywhere.

After traveling for a few days, after confirming that there were no state chasing troops behind, the talents finally stopped in a forest, but they separated.

The leader of Tianwangzhai wants to return to the north, while Li Chun and others want to return to Hongyun Mountain. Since the situation is already safe, it is time to part.

"It's a joy in my life to be able to meet all the heroes and do such a thing together. Unfortunately, I have waited for a long time to leave the village, and now I have to go back to the north."

Xiang Tianjie clenched his fists to the crowd with a solemn tone.

Li Chun also folded his hands and said: "Alas, once we meet, we must part."

Xiang Tianjie smiled and said politely again, then turned to look at Guo Haishen and said solemnly:

"Brother Guo, if you were persecuted by the government, why don't you go with me and sit on the top spot in my Tianwangzhai, and then drink and eat meat in large gulps, wouldn't it be fun?"

He asked himself that this trip had rescued Guo Haishen. With kindness, the other party should not refuse.

However, Guo Haishen hesitated for a while, but shook his head and said with guilt:

"You leaders saved me from prison, such a kind of love, Guo Mou felt deeply in his heart, and should have promised you to go up the mountain to join the team, but now I have another reason... Alas, please forgive Guo Mou for not being able to go north with you."

Xiang Tianjie was taken aback and asked, "Brother Guo, is there anything you haven't done yet?"

Guo Haishen nodded, looked at Zhou Jing beside him, his tone was sonorous and powerful:

"Brother Chen committed such a major case for me, and the imperial court will hold grudges and lead to revenge. The imperial court will most likely send troops to hunt them down in the near future. Brother Chen is in a dangerous situation. I can no longer leave him alone. I have made up my mind to go with Brother Chen. Yes, even if you risk your life, you must protect him. If there is a chasing soldier, I and Brother Chen will meet the enemy side by side, advance and retreat together, and live and die together!"

He consciously owed a great debt, and when Zhou Jing was not in a safe situation, he did not intend to leave Zhou Jing.

Although he hadn't sworn to worship on the way, Guo Haishen only felt that he and Zhou Jing were in tune with each other, and he had already made up his mind to recognize this brother, and to share the blessings and the misfortunes.

Hearing this, Xiang Tianjie immediately looked at Zhou Jing and persuaded:

"Brother Chen, if you hurt an official of the imperial court, you will be retaliated. Because the south is the most sought after, but the north is different. Why don't you follow us all the way north and join us in Tianwang Village? Then you don't have to worry about it. The imperial court pursues soldiers."

The voice fell, and many leaders of Tianwangzhai brightened up and warmly invited them together.

They admired Zhou Jing's martial arts and heroic behavior, and wanted to live under the same roof and get closer in the future.

Seeing this, Li Chun couldn't sit still, hurried to talk, and said to Zhou Jing:

"Brother Chen's heroic behavior, I also admire in my heart. Although Hongyun Mountain is a small village, he is willing to protect his brother. I sincerely invite my brother to come to my Hongyun Mountain to rest and rest."

Although Hongyun Mountain is only a small shrimp compared to Tianwangzhai, he can only come out and compete.

After receiving two invitations at the same time, Zhou Jing pondered for two seconds and said:

"I understand the thoughts of the leaders of Tianwangzhai. It's just that Brother Li Chun and I have known each other before and have agreed to go to Hongyun Mountain for a talk, and I have no plans to leave the south at the moment, so I can only refuse your kindness. However, in the future, I will I will go to the north, visit the brothers in the Tianwangzhai, and enjoy the wine."

He plans to go to Hongyun Mountain. One is that the journey is relatively short, but it is too far to go to the north. Second, there are few things in Xiaozhai and there are many people in Dazhai. Next, he needs a more leisurely environment to improve his strength. Hongyun Mountain is relatively suitable.

As for the court dispatching troops... At least you need to know where he is. It is difficult for a small group to reveal Xingzang.

Hearing this, Li Chun was overjoyed immediately.

But Xiang Tianjie was depressed.

In this wave of saving people, Guo Haishen was supposed to join the team, but he didn't expect to be abducted by a Chen Feng who was killed in the middle...

However, the other party's reason was justified, and Xiang Tianjie couldn't refute it, so he had no choice but to accept the reality.

However, listening to Zhou Jing's meaning, it was just going to Hongyun Mountain to settle down, not to join in. Xiang Tianjie felt a lot better. He felt that Zhou Jing might still work in different cottages in the future, and his own Tianwangzhai had a lot of opportunities.

Thinking of this, Xiang Tianjie let go of his emotions and said:

"Okay, that brother be careful all the way. When I go back to the north, I will definitely inform the leader of the mountain about Brother Chen's act of loyalty, and spread it all over the green forest, so that everyone in the world can know the brother of the green forest hero!"

He still wanted to form a good relationship with Zhou Jing, and he made up his mind to make Zhou Jing famous. With a giant like him, Tianwangzhai, to testify on the road, it would definitely make this matter a sensation in the green forest.

Zhou Jing also clasped his fists in response, but did not refuse.

At this time, Gao Yun opened his mouth and said regretfully, "Brother, I can't be with you anymore. Although I have never reported my family's troubles in the south this time, but to be careful, I plan to go back to the north to roll up my family and settle down there. Other places. If I have free time in the future, I will come back to my brother to drink and discuss martial arts."

"Okay, I'm waiting for my brother."

Zhou Jing nodded.

At this time, Li Chun looked at Fang Zhen on the side and smiled:

"Brother Fang, what are your plans?"

Fang Zhen shrugged and said without hesitation, "I'm a straggler who travels all over the world. Wherever my brother goes, I will go."

"Okay, it's very nice to have brothers as company."

Zhou Jing smiled heartily upon hearing this. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

Li Chun became more and more happy. This wave of invitations to Zhou Jing, including Guo Haishen and Fang Zhen, went up the mountain together. It was a buy one get two free.

After some talk, everyone in Tianwangzhai and Gao Yun decided to go north.

The new gang composed of Zhou Jing, Guo Haishen, and Fang Zhen planned to follow Li Chun all the way to Hongyun Mountain, temporarily staying to see the attitude of the court. Zhang San and the other five naturally followed.

Everyone indicated their whereabouts, and the group immediately split into two.

Looking at each other, everyone looked solemn, raised their hands and clasped their fists:

"The rivers and lakes are far away, the mountains are high and the rivers are long, and the duckweeds of the world will always gather and disperse. I just hope that when the road and the left side meet in the future, I can still have a good time with you guys!"

Both of them are from the green forest, and neither of them is squeamish.

Immediately, the two groups separated on the spot, each went their own way, walking away from each other back to back.
