People who practice martial arts always have sharper eyes. Yang Heihu sits in the salt field, and there are more than 300 salt workers in the field. Although they can't name them, most of them are familiar.The one hundred people in Changshan Village were the focus of his attention.

The person sitting on the pile of firewood was naturally Shuanzi, and Yang Heihu felt suspicious when he saw his back.However, when he rode past, he saw that face was very strange.This is of course due to Gao Xiuer's disguise technique.

But the man driving the car aroused Yang Heihu's suspicion again.Although Kunlun slaves come from Nanyang, they are rare in Jiangnan.More importantly, the person driving the car was unfamiliar, obviously not a veteran.But his arms are strong, and he insists on controlling the naive horse driving with a brute force, obviously he is a good guy.

There is no way to let the Kunlun slave drive the car.The current group of young people in Changshan Village have never been in contact with horses, let alone driving a carriage.Those four Kunlun slaves had studied for a few days at least, so the task naturally fell on them.In addition, they have kung fu on their bodies and can protect the emboli if necessary.

Although the Yang family's opening of the salt field could not be hidden from the local officials, it was hidden from the eyes and ears of the court.In order not to attract the attention of outsiders, the Yang family acted extra cautiously here.Yang Xuangan's repeated orders emphasized that outsiders are not allowed to lead to the manor in the west of the city, because in the eyes of other families in the court, the Yang family has already abandoned that manor.

After Yang Heihu rode five horses past, the carriage carrying firewood also accelerated.But in this section of the official road, people come and go, and there are many carts transporting salt, no matter how good the horses are, they can't run fast.The carriage followed unhurriedly like this, which aroused Yang Heihu's vigilance even more, and one of his hands had already secretly grasped the handle of the knife.

When it was more than five miles away from Yanguan City, the Kunlun slave who was driving suddenly raised his whip, and the horse neighed "Jiu Jiu", and the carriage turned a corner and entered the side road.Yang Heihu heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the carriage going farther and farther out of the corner of his eye.At some point, he found that his palms were covered with sweat.

Shuan Zi and the others can continue to follow, but Yang Heihu and the others can't run fast anyway.But before leaving, Liu Ziqiu had told him that the farthest he was allowed to follow was this fork in the road.Liu Ziqiu knew that the Yang family had been in Yanguan for nearly a year, but not many people knew their whereabouts, which showed that they were very cautious in their actions.If you follow it all the way, you will definitely startle the snake.

Although the carriage did not continue to follow them, Yang Heihu was still a little uneasy, and asked as soon as he entered the manor: "Where is the seventh son?"

Zhuang Ding, who was guarding the door, pointed to the back and said, "My lord is in the flower hall."

This place was originally a separate courtyard of Chen Shushen, King of Yueyang in the South Chen Dynasty. The flower hall was in the front courtyard.

Although Yang Heihu is only a domestic slave, he has a special status and does not need to be passed on to enter.Pushing open the hall door, I saw two orchids with enchanting bodies, twisting their waists like water snakes, dancing there.

Although Yang Jishan was not married, he also took in two concubines, and spent most of his time drinking and having fun with his concubines in the manor.Seeing Yang Heihu coming in, Yang Jishan laughed and said, "Heihu, you came just in time! Brother just sent two orchids from Luoyang, and the dance is so good, haha, haha..."

Yang Heihu was not in the mood to enjoy the singing and dancing, he cupped his hands and said, "Sir Seventh, people from Changshan Village have gone to the saltworks today."

Yang Jishan frowned and said, "What are they going to do?"

"They demanded to go to work."

"Haha, haha, these untouchables really don't want to eat a toast!" Yang Jishan pinched the chest of the concubine in his arms, raised a wine glass in front of him, and said, "Don't pay attention to them. Heihu, come here, this is the wine that my brother sent from Luoyang just now, you should try it too!"

The saltworks were running well, and the stones that weighed on Yang Xiaogan's heart fell to the ground.In order to tie up Yang Jishan's body so that he would not show his whereabouts by running around, Yang Xiaogan specially sent orchids and fine wine from Luoyang.

Yang Heihu saw that there were still a few red spots on the wine glass, which was obviously used by the concubine in Yang Jishan's arms, so he dared not take it, and hurriedly said: "Seventh son, I don't like this kind of sour and sweet taste, it's still strong wine. Well done."

"You boy!" Yang Jishan brought the wine glass to his mouth, drank it all in one gulp, then slumped heavily on the table, his face darkened, "Tell me, what happened afterwards?"

But Yang Heihu didn't care what he thought of him, he cupped his hands and said, "The slaves didn't let them in, so they all sent away."

"Oh, they didn't make trouble?" Yang Jishan was a little surprised by this result.

"No trouble."

Yang Jishan suddenly pushed away the concubine in his arms, stood up, took two steps in the flower hall, and said in a deep voice: "They have a contract in hand, so they won't just let it go. In this way, tomorrow morning, you go to the county government office , Tell them, they are not allowed to take the case of Changshan Village!"

"No!" Yang Heihu cupped his fists, wanting to continue to report about the suspicious carriage just now, seeing that Yang Jishan had sat down again and was hugging the concubine and kissing, he finally held back.

Yang Jishan frolicked for a while, and found that Yang Heihu was still standing here. He couldn't help pointing to the two orchids dancing in the field, and said, "How about it? Whoever you like, let her accompany you at night."

"Xie Qigong, this slave is not good at this." Yang Heihu bowed and said, "If there is nothing else, this slave will leave."

"Go, go. What a boring guy."

……

At this time, Shuanzi also returned to Changshan Village.

The entire Changshan became a large construction site again, as if it had returned to two months ago.The villagers piled up bamboo, wood, and stones collected from the mountains by category.At the four corners of the village, wooden watchtowers have begun to take shape.The fence was almost knocked down and rebuilt, with tree stumps for posts and reeds for walls.

Xiao Dapeng is leading dozens of villagers to brush the reconciliation mud layer by layer on the fence.Seeing that Liu Ziqiu arranged for people to follow Yang Heihu, the young man finally believed that Liu Ziqiu would help him avenge him, and he felt endless energy all over his body.

Shuanzi came over and asked, "Dapeng, where's Big Niu?"

Xiao Dapeng raised his head, pointed to the place where the bamboo was piled up, and said, "Hey, there it is."

Shuanzi hurried over, only to see Liu Ziqiu buried in picking bamboos. , could not help asking: "Brother Big Niu, what are you doing?"

"Oh, Shuanzi is back." Liu Ziqiu casually threw him a long bamboo and said, "Try it, does it work?"

"This is?"

"Bamboo spears, or bamboo spears, are fine for assassination."

These are moso bamboos more than three years old. Liu Ziqiu picked out the ones of appropriate thickness and sharpened one end so that they could be used as spears.Just not sharp enough and easy to lose.But this is something that cannot be helped.The imperial court strictly forbids civilians to use weapons such as spears, long spears, horse lances, mo knives, bows and arrows, otherwise they will be punished as treason.However, this also has an advantage. There are so many moso bamboos on the mountain that it can be said to be inexhaustible.

Shuan Zi took it and danced twice, then said excitedly, "Aren't we going to attack the saltworks?"

"Attack your head! Take this to fight with others, and you will almost die." Liu Ziqiu grabbed the long bamboo with his hands, threw it to the villager who was in charge of sharpening the spearhead, and said, "How is the situation?"

"According to your instructions, we have been watching until the fork in the road five miles east of the city, and watched them enter the city." Shuanzi said with some regret, "If we keep watching, we will definitely find their foothold!"

"Okay, if you keep staring at me, you'll be done by someone." Liu Ziqiu waved his hand and said, "Go down and rest first. Go to the east gate tomorrow and wait for them. You don't need a carriage. You alone will carry the burden. I'll let you Ah Fu and Ah Gui secretly protect you."

Shuanzi agreed, walked two steps, and suddenly asked, "Hey, Brother Big Niu, do you want to build a big house?"

In the center of the village, a large piece of land has been leveled out and the foundation has been dug. Judging from the scale, it is a typical big house with three entrances and three exits.

Liu Ziqiu spat: "Am I the one who will leave everyone alone and enjoy myself? That's the school in the village."

"School." Shuanzi, who lacked interest in reading, shook his head in disappointment, "It would be great if we could build a school."

"Fuck you, I thought I was going to rebel!" Liu Ziqiu laughed and cursed, "Get lost!"

Someone outside shouted again: "Daniu, Third Aunt is back!"

Liu Ziqiu hurriedly put down the work in his hands, stepped forward and asked, "Third Aunt, how is the relationship going?"

The third aunt sighed, and said: "Don't mention it, I asked several gentlemen, either they are sitting in the restaurant, or they think our place is too far away. There is only one old man who promised to come here in a few days to see whether it will be successful or not. between."

Liu Ziqiu nodded and said, "It's not urgent, take your time, anyway, the school hasn't been built yet. We can set the conditions a little more generously, and take care of food and housing. No matter how hard we try, we must find a way to let the children Read the book."

"It's good to have what you say. In the future, my child can also study." The third aunt looked up and saw the busy construction site, and asked with a frown, "Daniu, is it possible that the Yang family is coming to slaughter the village again?"

A few months ago, it was Liu Ziqiu who cleverly set the trap and repelled the night attack organized by the Yang family, forcing Yang Jishan to sign the contract. Everyone in the village still remembers that experience vividly.

"They won't come for the time being. But it's good to be prepared, and it's good to guard against thieves."

However, Liu Ziqiu knew that the next move he was going to take was a dangerous move, which might provoke the Yang family's crazy revenge. At least the village should be able to hold on until the officers and soldiers arrived.After all, the current Sui Dynasty is not in chaos yet, and the Yang family dare not go too far.

As it was getting late, Liu Ziqiu asked everyone to go back to rest, but the villagers refused, so they lit torches and rushed to work overnight.A few months ago, it was because of Liu Ziqiu's strategizing that they avoided a catastrophe.They had absolute trust in Liu Ziqiu's words, and insisted on plastering the fence, Liu Ziqiu had no choice but to follow them.

Back in the courtyard, the lights in Gao Xiu'er's room were still on.Liu Ziqiu knocked lightly twice, pushed the door open and went in, only to see Gao Xiu'er frantically stuffing something behind her.
