Listening to this group of people issuing military orders like this, ordinary people would have compromised long ago, but Chen Yanrong is not that ordinary person.
She said in a cold voice, "I made it easy, old man. Of course you can promise like this, but if it really happens, even if I take away the lives of your whole family, will those rats cease to exist?"
Hearing Chen Yanrong's inquiry, the old man suddenly froze. It was obvious that what Chen Yanrong said made sense.
If it was really because of them that rats got in, the accident would not change even if it cost them and their family their lives.
However, do they really want to destroy the hard work of their predecessors because of a few mice?
What's more, Chen Yanrong actually had no evidence to prove that the fire started from her side.
After all, there is not only one passage here, but also at the other gates. Isn't it possible for people to take advantage of the loopholes and get in?
But at the moment, although he understood this truth in his heart, it was impossible for him to say it. After all, when he said it, he could be regarded as offending the people in charge of the north, south and east at the same time, and these people were Chen Yanrong's confidants.
If these confidants say bad things about Chen Yanrong now, then this place will be even more dangerous.
Therefore, although the old man felt that the problem could not arise in his case, he could not help but retreat and show his willingness to solve the problem.
"Mountain Master, what you said is not unreasonable. I just didn't think about it. If you don't mind, how about this? I'm willing to let the whole family go out to check the situation at the tomb first. If things are really like this, What the Lord is concerned about is usually the risk of letting rats in. The old man will definitely not let the mountain owner suffer, so he will first deal with the rats outside the tomb."
Hearing the old man's gesture of taking a step back, if it were the former mountain masters, they would give it to them if they could. After all, the family heads of the descendants of the mountain guardian have spoken.
And the tomb they guarded not only buried the descendants of Yunhu Village, but their ancestors were also buried here.
So instead of looking at the monk's face and looking at the Buddha's face, they would probably give some face to the old patriarch's proposal.
However, today is not the past. Chen Yanrong has no ancestors on this mountain. The graves of their Chen family ancestors have all been raised, and their parents have long been thrown into the wilderness.
Therefore, for Chen Yanrong, such a group of old people guarding a mountain top are dispensable to her, and what she needs is always troops and manpower.
For Shanzhai, she is a complete outsider.
So although Chen Yanrong was smiling, not a word of what she said was negotiable.
"I'm very grateful that sir is willing to give in to this. It's just a pity that the task of finding out the rat behind it is already obligatory, so it's not a bother for me, sir. You have to go and search it. You just need to tell us the location." , we can just do it ourselves.”
However, after hearing what Chen Yanrong said, the old man was obviously unwilling.
"The mountain master is begging you as an old man. That is the escape route left by our ancestors. Just let him stay here. We will strictly guard this place and will never let it affect the mountain." The safety of our brothers.”
However, even if Chen Yanrong heard the man's sincere request, she did not change her mind at all. "Sir, we are doing this for everyone's safety. We hope you can be considerate!"
After saying this, Chen Yanrong immediately said, "Come here! Everyone, let me in!"
It's obvious that Chen Yanrong's patience has been exhausted at the moment, and she is too lazy to have this kind of time-wasting verbal dispute again.
And as Chen Yanrong finished speaking, a small group of minions began to gather in this direction.
Seeing the minions gathering in this direction, several middle-aged men around the old man couldn't help but asked Chen Yanrong warily, "Master Chen, what do you mean?"
Facing the problem, Chen Yanrong only looked at them with innocent eyes and said, "What can I mean? Aren't everyone unwilling to cooperate? What I mean is that since everyone is unwilling to cooperate with us, then we can only take over on our own. Yes."
After saying this, Chen Yanrong faced
Her expression became solemn, and then she said with a cold expression, "Everyone, hurry up and search inside!"
Everyone naturally responded in unison when they heard Chen Yanrong's words.
Then the group of minions were about to go inside. When the mountain guardian clan saw this situation, they were not willing to let the hard work of their ancestors be destroyed like this.
So when they saw this situation, they immediately stopped at the entrance to the mountain.
When the gangsters saw this situation, they didn't dare to take offense at first. After all, their situation was different from Chen Yanrong's.
These minions are all locals born and raised in Yunhu Village or Yunhu Village. They themselves have ancestors buried in this cemetery, so they have a natural fear of these mountain guards. They didn't say anything at the moment. Once they saw the mountain guard guarding the entrance, they didn't dare to move forward.
For a moment, both sides were in a stalemate at the same time.
When Chen Yanrong saw this situation, she immediately became angry for no reason.
"What do you want to do if you are still standing there? You should move forward!"
After hearing Chen Yanrong's words, the minions had no choice but to take a few steps forward. However, they had only taken a few steps at the moment.
The old man standing in the middle of the mountain guard suddenly slammed his cane on the ground, and then said with a stern look, "I wonder which of you dares to come here! If you dare to come, just step on the old man's body!"
As soon as he finished speaking, it turned out that no one dared to come here at all.
The old man guarding the mountain only looked at this group of people coldly.
At the same time, the old man's sons formed an alliance. They held hands and surrounded the entrance of the mountain road at the same time.
Seeing this situation, even those around Chen Yanrong couldn't help but try to persuade Chen Yanrong.
"Mountain Master, there is no need for us to push people to such a point, right? How about we all make concessions and let this matter be forgotten."
"Yeah, maybe the rat didn't get in from here?"
"Yes, Mountain Master, let's act with caution!"
At this moment, even the leaders of the three parties who were eager to shirk the blame could not help but say such words to Chen Yanrong.
It's a pity that how could Chen Yanrong's decision be changed because of their words?
Chen Yanrong felt that it was unsafe after she heard that there was such a person in the cemetery. She was determined to change everything here.
So she just said coldly, "So what do you mean, you put those mice in?"
Then her words fell, and there was silence for a moment. No one answered Chen Yanrong's question, because they all knew very well that whoever answered Chen Yanrong's words would mean that the blame would be placed on who. .
After Chen Yanrong successfully silenced those who tried to speak for the mountain master, she then said, "If you dare not go in, then retreat. But as long as you retreat today, then from now on, none of you will Don’t even think about coming here again!”
Chen Yanrong's words only pinched the lifeblood of those minions whose consciences have not yet retreated. What Chen Yanrong said about not coming back did not mean that they would not be allowed to work as minions in the mountain from now on. It meant that they should die. , meaning about to be executed.
Who would risk his life? When Chen Yanrong threatened her with a knife on her neck, they had no choice but to compromise.
They looked at the mountain guards with some helplessness, and they tried to make a last-ditch effort: "Mr. Yan, just let us in! You can't stop our troops even if you block it like this. You are already so old, why don't you let us in?" Now we are competing with young people like us, why not take the initiative to step down, so that no one will have to conflict, so why not?"
However, after hearing this man's words, the old man guarding the mountain looked very calm, and he had no intention of changing his mind.
After all, he didn't even buy Chen Yanrong's account, so how could he buy someone else's account?
He just looked at these people coldly.
Then he said softly, "Thank you for your kindness, but I have no intention of changing my mind. I still say the same thing. If you want to destroy the life-saving channel of our ancestors, you might as well step over me!"
one
Listening to the old man's words, Chen Yanrong knew that this stubborn old man had no intention of changing.
So she just said coldly, "Since he said so, why are you still standing here stupidly? Everyone, please do something!"
After hearing Chen Yanrong's words, everyone stopped talking instantly.
And as Chen Yanrong's order sounded, someone attacked in the direction of the old man. The old man did not give in, and the man hit the old man on the head.
The old man felt a pain in his head, but he had no intention of giving in at the moment.
He just looked at it all coldly, "Fight! Fight! Even if you beat me to death, you can't get any information about the whereabouts of the passage from me!"
He was waiting for these people to apologize to him.
Unfortunately, no one apologized to him at the moment. On the contrary, when the others saw the man hitting the old man with a stick, they knew that they had no way out.
When the sons and grandsons behind the old man saw their master being beaten, they immediately became angry, and they all rushed towards the culprit who beat their old man.
"You dare to hit my father! I want you to die without a burial place!"
After listening to these people's words, a group of people soon followed and got into a fight.
But at the stall where they were fighting, Leng Shisan, who was inside the tomb, finally reunited with Hong Anzheng and his disciples.
They originally planned to leave from the entrance of the passage immediately, but Leng Shisan heard noisy sounds at this time.
