Chapter 19 The Wrath of Ertou Mountain

At night, the beards from Ertoushan gathered as usual in the Juyi Hall of the village to learn to read with the old scholar Yan Zhengqing and the "wordsmith" Guanyu Xiaotaoist.

There was no paper in the village. There was a sandbox in front of the bearded men, and they wrote on the sandbox with wooden sticks.

Yan Zhengqing, who was lecturing, used black carbon strips to write and draw on the wooden board, giving instructions on how to read and write the words. Guanyu went around to check on the students' learning status to prevent them from being lazy.

Wearing a long gown and round-rimmed glasses, Yan Zhengqing looks quite celestial. With his slender body, thin face and long gray beard, he looks gentle, elegant and dignified.

And his lectures were also very exciting. From time to time, he would joke with the bearded people, talking about the meaning and usage of words in a joke, and bursts of laughter could be heard in the Juyi Hall.

Tu Qianjun stood outside the door, looking at the more than three hundred bearded people in the hall, biting sticks and frowning, writing and drawing crookedly on the sand table, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Ertoushan has finally undergone some changes since he came here. These passionate men know more, at least now the men in this hall can write their own names.

Tu Qianjun clearly remembered that when Lao Bada "Jiuchai" wrote his name on the sand table and got Guan Yu's confirmation, even though the words were written crookedly, Lao Bada couldn't help crying.

After living for more than half his life, he knew how to write his name for the first time! With tears in his eyes, Jiuchai told all the old brothers that back then, the local tycoons bullied him and his father for being illiterate, and gave him a document saying they were buying food.

They draw signs.

Jiuchai's father, who was honest and illiterate, thought it was a document signed by the rich man and him about harvesting grain in the coming year, so he signed it without much thought.

As a result, within a few days, the rich man came with his nursing home to collect the document, saying that it was Jiuchai's father who sold his family's land to him!

Of course Jiuchai's father refused to admit it! He even refused to give up the land! As a result, the rich man ordered his family's nursing home to injure his father and occupy his family's land. When Jiuchai found out, he ran to file a complaint against the county magistrate.

I asked him to write a petition, but he couldn't even write his own name!

At this time, the local tycoon took out a document and said that the Jiuchai family had sold the land to him under a mortgage! So the county magistrate angrily shouted that he was making trouble unreasonably and kicked him out of the county government office.

Of course, the lawsuit was lost... Jiuchai's father died in anger! My mother also cried every day, and soon she died with Jiuchai's father due to a serious illness and lack of medical treatment.

The local tyrant sneered and took away the land accumulated by three generations of his family and drove him out of the village. Later, the homeless Jiuchai wandered to Ertoushan and was brought to the village by Lao Miangua.

It wasn't until more than three years ago that Tu Sanpao took him and several shopkeepers back to his hometown in Shandong and killed twelve members of the wealthy family in one fell swoop. They took the heads of their enemies and placed them in front of Jiuchai's father's grave.

Chai's blood feud was finally avenged.

However, Jiuchai's home is gone too.

While Tu Qianjun was sighing, the literacy class for the beards was also over. All the beards were laughing and joking with each other, preparing to leave the hall and go back to the house to sleep.

But Guanyu on the stage coughed and stopped everyone.

"Ahem! Ahem! Everyone, don't go back in a hurry. Mr. Bai has something to talk to everyone about." Guanyu glanced at the village with his peripheral vision and called the boys in charge of the "clips" tonight.

So he invited Xiao Bailong to the stage.

Xiao Bailong didn't hesitate. After he came on stage, he hugged his fists and looked around. His eyes were serious and his expression was solemn.

"Everyone knows that some time ago, I followed the young shopkeeper down the mountain to investigate a red kiln. I thought that if this red kiln was a good person and followed the rules of Beifeng, Ertou Mountain, then it would be unacceptable.

Touched."

Having said this, Xiao Bailong paused and lowered his head and said in a deep voice.

"But I didn't expect that we actually saw a beast! Bastard! I saw the most bastard side of a person!" As the little white dragon roared, the kids' hearts were lifted.

Mr. Bai, the little white dragon of "Shui Xiang", is probably the most talkative among the shopkeepers in the village. Although the boys are occasionally lazy when putting the "clips", he will scold him if he finds out, but he will never talk to him.

The boss said the punishment would not be too harsh.

Some of the kids like to play with money (gambling), and sometimes the money they get is gone in a short while. When I bring ideas to my family at the end of the year, I can't get the money and are dejected and don't dare to tell the shopkeepers.

It's also Mr. Bai, who didn't even need to mention it to the kids, but just gave up his share and asked the brothers at the foot of the mountain to sell some gadgets and take some money to send to his family. He thought it was a filial piety to help the kids.

Therefore, although Mr. Bai is handsome and childish in appearance, the boys in the village are all convinced by Mr. Bai, who speaks softly and has a good temper.

But today, the good-tempered Mr. Bai got angry! This made the boys angry! It seems that the red kiln this time is really not a good thing!

"That night, I followed Liang Baoli..." Xiao Bailong was silent for a while, and then slowly mentioned everything he saw that night in a deep voice.

As he described it step by step, the kids' eyes gradually turned red! Many of the kids were gasping for breath, and their teeth clenched loudly!

"That's it, I was watching this family of three on the roof..." Gradually, Xiao Bailong couldn't speak anymore. He lowered his head and shed tears silently.

The boys only saw Little Bailong lowering his head, but the shopkeepers saw his red eyes full of tears falling down on his clothes.

In fact, it's not just the little white dragon, many kids in the hall are also wiping the corners of their eyes with their clothes.

"He's a bitch! He's wearing his bitch's flowers!! (Note 1)" A roar sounded in the crowd, and with this roar, the brats began to talk "Wow~"!

"Wearing flowers?! I think I should let that bastard play 'look at the sky' (Note 2)!!" Another roar sounded, and this roar aroused everyone's agreement.

"Crush him!! Let's hang five 'curtains' (horses) on him and crush him!! (Five horses cut him into pieces)" The roars of the boys kept ringing in the Juyi Hall.

Ertou Mountain originally housed mostly men who had been bullied by local tycoons. Almost everyone had a time when they had been bullied, occupied, and humiliated.

Xiao Bailong's description made these men feel the same way! In an instant, it aroused their anger like a volcanic eruption! This anger rolled in like a wave, getting bigger and bigger!

Zixuan, Fei Yaozi and Tu Qianjun looked at each other secretly, and their goal was achieved! With this kind of fighting spirit, it would be easy to smash down this red kiln with your hands!

So, Tu Qianjun slowly walked to the front of the Juyi Hall and solemnly looked at the roaring brats and raised his hands to suppress them. In an instant, the brats' voices calmed down.

After this period of training, the boys are extremely convinced by the young shopkeeper who is only fifteen years old. At this moment, they want to hear what their young shopkeeper has to say.

"Since the beginning of the Ertou Mountain situation, we have never 'defeated' good people. This is something that all the folks in the area of ​​500 miles around know." Tu Qianjun said in a low voice while looking at the dark crowd in the hall.

"Today, I'm going to ask everyone! Should we overcome this bastard? Or should we not overcome it?!"

"'K'!!!" All the brats roared in unison! Some of them were so excited that they even punched the chairs and tables next to them!

"Okay! Brothers, let's take a day off tomorrow and prepare well! Tomorrow night we will rush to Leijiashan to kill this bastard Liang Baolan!!" Tu Qianjun nodded calmly and roared loudly!

"Follow the young shopkeeper's order!!" All the brats clasped their fists and roared! Then, with red eyes, they slowly dispersed, led by their respective "sheds" (little bosses)...

(Note 1) In summer and autumn, people are stripped naked and tied to a big tree. In the mountains in the northeast, there are many mosquitoes with small bites. At dusk, they fly in in groups and bite people, killing them overnight.

Can suck human blood dry.

(Note 2) Also called "watching the mountain", this is the cruelest method. Sharpen one end of a small green willow tree (usually the thickness of a bowl), insert it into the person's anus, and then let go, and the person will be
