Lingnan Gang

Chapter 8

This gravel path becomes narrower as you walk, and the lush trees on both sides often give people the illusion that the road is broken. However, the next moment, black and gray stones appear at the foot, winding all the way down the mountain.

"Although the place where the ordnance is built is on the opposite side, it will take a long time to walk there, and the karst cave they used to wear is too humid. I'm afraid it's not good for Mr. Su's health, so we won't go there today. " Yin Buzai whispered in front of him.

"I'm afraid this path won't be used much." Su Beiqin struggled to push aside the branches and leaves blocking the way, panting slightly.

Yin Buzai slowed down his pace a little, and said: "That's true. It was originally used for guests who came from outside. People in the village seldom go here, but the way they take is probably not suitable for Mr. Su."

Su Beiqin's cheeks were covered with thin beads of sweat, he squinted his eyes, wiped the sweat that fell to the corners of his eyes, and said thoughtfully: "When did Wu Weiyang start?"

"This... I'm sorry that Yin can't answer, Yin only came here last spring." Yin Buzai was startled, and smiled apologetically.

Su Beiqin raised his eyebrows with great interest, and said, "Looking at brother Yin's appearance, it doesn't seem like he committed any crime, but why did he enter the uninhabited village?"

Yin Buzai sighed, "It's an order from my teacher."

Su Beiqin was about to ask again, when the bushes shook in front of him, a child about seven or eight years old jumped out, holding a small wooden dagger in his hand, wearing an old but clean green cloth coat, and said with his head held high : "I opened this mountain, and I planted this tree. If you want to cross this road, stay and buy... Ah! It hurts!"

Yin Buzai knocked gently on the child's wrist, and the child loosened his fingers, and the short sword fell to the ground. He clutched his wrist, stared fiercely and said, "You big villain, who sent you?" You went up the mountain?! I'm going to tell the boss!"

"Little brat, I'm Big Brother Yin!" Yin Buzai pinched the kid's cheek resentfully, "Why did you run into the woods by yourself again! Where's your mother?"

The child muttered while rubbing his face: "Brother Yin? I thought it was a villain who touched the village. My mother is washing clothes. Brother Yin, who is behind you?"

Yin Buzai said: "That's the new master in the village, don't go to him to be naughty, be careful that the boss will beat you!" He made a gesture of raising his hand at the child, and the child shrank his head in fright .

Su Beiqin smiled at the child and asked softly, "What's your name?"

The child blinked and blinked, looking at this handsome and gentle young man, his sonorous voice was restrained for some reason, and he said in a soft voice: "My name is Lin Qingtang."

"Good name." Su Beiqin touched Lin Qingtang's furry head. Lin Qingtang wiped his hands on his clothes with bright eyes, and timidly reached out to pull the corner of Su Beiqin's clothes, "Sir, do you want to come to my house for a while?" ?”

Su Beiqin was dragged forward by the child, and Yin Buzai was stunned behind him, and he became more and more determined to disguise himself as a beauty, "A group of guys who only look at faces, superficial!" He murmured , while chasing up.

Going down this gravel path, a small village appeared in the depression, like a paradise that only appears in books, with simple dirt paths intersecting and intersecting, and single-storey houses with white walls and black tiles scattered here and there. Between the trails, the front and back of the house are all based on the owner’s preference. Some vegetables and fruits are planted. A few chickens and ducks are waddling along the trails, occasionally being startled by the villagers passing by, flapping their wings clumsily to the side. dodge.

Su Beiqin watched quietly from a high place for a while, Lin Qingtang tugged him vigorously, his face was full of joy, and said, "Sir, let's go."

From there, there is no road to the village, only a few simple pits for stepping on. Su Beiqin's movements were inevitably a little slow. Lin Qingtang couldn't wait, so he jumped down in two or three steps, and looked up from below. With Su Beiqin.

Yin Buzai walked in front of Su Beiqin and supported Su Beiqin's arm. Su Beiqin lowered his voice and said, "What's going on with this village?"

Yin Buzai said with a smile: "Sometimes when a family is exiled, the old and the weak, women and children always need a place to resettle, so Boss built a village here. Of course, not all the exiles in the village, there are also some other people. They brought Some of my family members also live here."

Su Beiqin frowned slightly, "Won't this put them in danger?"

"It would be dangerous if they were allowed to disperse." Yin Buzai restrained his smile, looked at Su Beiqin and said, "Mr. Su should understand the pros and cons of it."

Su Beiqin fell silent, he stepped down the last pit, Lin Jingtang jumped over to pull him, he looked at the child's bright and clean smiling face, but the gentle smile on his face was somewhat irresistible, the reason why he was so close to the village The place where these old and weak women and children are housed, apart from the protection on the surface, there is no guarantee that there will be no guarding and monitoring in private. If these relatives come to the mountain, there must be restrictions on going down the mountain. He doesn't know whether this is good or bad for them, but Yin Yin It's not unreasonable to say no more, and he can't add more beaks.

Lin Jingtang led them to a house near the southeast of the village, pushed open the fence door, and a big gray dog ​​with shiny fur rushed out, wagging its tail and turning around at Lin Jingtang's feet, Lin Jingtang He coaxed the dog away and brought the two of them into the house. The windows in the house were bright and clean, and the place was neatly tidied up.

A woman lifted the curtain and came out, "Tang'er, where have you been?"

Seeing that Su Beiqin and Yin were not there, she was startled, "Mr. Yin, who is this?"

Yin was also stunned, as if he couldn't react for a while, and then said: "Ah, this is the new master, Mr. Su Bei Qin Su."

The woman showed a gentle smile, "Leave the shabby, wronged sir, my concubine is Lin Jian."

Lin Jianshi made tea for them, it was inconvenient for her to be with outsiders, so she retreated back into the inner room, Lin Jingtang accompanied them outside.

"Where's your father?" Su Beiqin asked.

Lin Jingtang reached out to take an osmanthus cake, and said while eating, "He is on the mountain over there, and he goes home several times a month, and he will take my mother and me down the mountain to visit the nearby town."

Yin Buzai said: "His father's name is Lin Antang, he was originally a well-known craftsman in the capital, but he did something to offend the emperor and exile his whole family. At that time, he was not yet married, and his father was already old. ...Later, he entered the uninhabited village, and because of his good craftsmanship, he went to work there."

The two sat in the hall and chatted intermittently for a while. Although Lin Jingtang was young, he was very intelligent and precocious, and he interjected a few words from time to time, which was not annoying. Su Beiqin liked him very much and spent a lot of effort Check his homework for him, and promise him to come down to see him when he is free.

At night, the two rejected Lin Jian's kindness to stay, and walked slowly up the mountain. Before leaving, Yin Buzai hesitated for a while, and asked, "How did Madam recognize me?"

Lin Jian was taken aback, she hesitated for a moment, and said a little shyly: "Because the whole village... and only Mr. Yin, I can't remember anyway, but I think Tang'er must have brought back someone from the village. ,so……"

Yin Buzai sighed secretly, thanked him sadly, and left with Su Beiqin.

When Su Beiqin went back, he was thoughtful all the way back. When he returned to the house, Yin Buzai was about to say goodbye. Su Beiqin called to him and said, "Brother Yin, do you know how the exiles in the uninhabited village can get rid of their crimes?"

Yin Buzai smiled and said: "When the boss takes that position, it's time for them to really get rid of their status as exiled criminals."

Su Bei Qin Moran asked for a moment, "How about Qinzhou Zhizhou?"

The smile on Yin Buzai's face deepened, "Mr. will know in the future."

The opportunity came quickly.After Su Beiqin woke up this day, as usual, he continued to carefully read the various accounts sent by Wu Weiyang in the study. Last time he gave only one of them, and later he asked Si'er to send a whole box with messy handwriting , Some are beautiful, some are scribbled, the first few books made Su Bei Qin Ai read for a long time, not because of the content, but the bold and majestic handwriting, clear structure, no sluggishness at the turning point, it is well-handled Good word.

He guessed that it was Wu Weiyang's handwriting. He thought that there were few people in No Man's Village at first, so as the leader, he naturally had to take care of everything.

These account books contained all aspects of the operation of the entire village, from the most secret weapons to trivial daily necessities. Su Beiqin never got bored, read it very carefully, and took a lot of notes.

He finished flipping through a book, and was putting it into the rattan basket beside him, when Si'er rushed in panting, and said, "Sir, the boss wants you to go to the lobby of the main courtyard now."

Su Beiqin was startled, "What's the matter?"

Si'er opened his mouth, closed it again, shook his head, and said: "Mr. will know when he goes."

Su Beiqin knew at a glance that it was Wu Weiyang who kept Si'er from talking, and he didn't know what the hell he was planning.He stood up, adjusted his clothes, and went forward with Si'er.

Si'er stopped at the back door of the main courtyard, made a funny face at Su Beiqin, and said: "The government sent someone here, Mr. Su, don't be afraid." As soon as he finished speaking, he ran away in a hurry.

Su Beiqin shook his head dumbfounded, thinking that Wu Weiyang didn't let Si'er say it because he wanted to see Su Beiqin lose his composure when he was caught off guard, but Si'er was still worried about him after all, so he endured it for a long time and said it.

Su Beiqin walks along the corridor and walks into the lobby in front of the courtyard. This lobby does not see sunlight all the year round, and it always looks a little cold. I don't know why Wu Weiyang chose this place as a meeting place.

As soon as he entered, he saw Wu Weiyang sitting on the top with a carefree attitude, and a middle-aged man who was a bit fat on the bottom. Su Beiqin looked at his official uniform and knew that this was a general sentence.

Seeing him coming in, Wu Weiyang said with a smile: "Mr. Su, you are here to meet our Qinzhou parent officer, Mr. Huang."

The middle-aged man wiped the sweat from his forehead, stood up and said, "Where is it, I'm not really a parent officer."

Su Beiqin took a look at Wu Weiyang's innocent face, then smiled gently and said, "Master Huang, you're welcome, I'm next to Su Beiqin."

"Su..." Master Huang was stunned, and asked tentatively, "It's... Taifu Su's..."

"My father is Su Qingbai." There was no embarrassment on Su Beiqin's face, and even the smile on the corner of his mouth remained unchanged.

"Ah...hahaha, I admire Su Taifu very much. I don't know how many students in the world want to worship under Su Taifu. I used to be one of them." Master Huang said, his face flushed red, and I don't know what I thought of.

Su Beiqin's attitude was still respectful and polite, "If my father knew about it, he would be very pleased. He often said that the so-called teaching a child does not depend on whether he is smart or not, but the most important thing is his willingness to learn."

Master Huang nodded again and again, his expression became much more relaxed, and he said with emotion: "Sure enough, the tiger father has no dogs."

As soon as the words fell, Wu Weiyang suddenly snorted, "Master Huang, what's the matter with you this time?" Master Huang trembled, sat down on the seat again, and said tremblingly: "Master Huang , Master Zhizhou asked me to tell you that the main thing in the village will arrive next month."

Su Beiqin's heart moved, and he looked at Wu Weiyang, only to see Wu Weiyang slowly pull out a smile, his deep dimples were buried in the darkness, his round eyes were surprisingly bright, "Thank you, Master Huang, for the notification, I will definitely be in the same village next month Let the brothers in the middle go together to thank Lord Zhizhou."
