Facts have proved that Zhang Quan and I’s worries were completely unnecessary.
When he called all the citizens in the town, when everyone saw the real money and silver in Hou Qianshu, their eyes were as if they were nailed to death, and they could no longer look away.
Hou Qianshu took out half of the large yellow croaker and distributed it equally to the townspeople.
If someone died in the family, he would give him an extra large yellow croaker and promise to take care of the elderly family members until they grow old and raise their children to adulthood.
Moreover, he also promised to use part of the remaining money to repair Xuanhu Town every year.
With such a simple arrangement, the resentment of the townspeople towards him almost disappeared.
Nowadays, in this time of war and chaos, human life is as thin as paper. This person has passed away, and only real money can keep the remaining people alive.
I also heard some townspeople talking in low voices, probably because they felt that the families whose families had lost their lives were not qualified to receive so much money, because those people back then were all Ge Guang's henchmen, and they must have done the evil along with them. Hurt Hou Qianshu's family.
As for these words, I did not take them to heart.
Ordinary people are naturally snobbish. They want to curry favor with Qian Shu, so they naturally change their tune.
Hou Qianshu also took out a sum of money to pay the militiamen. Suddenly, the militiamen's eyes lit up with excitement.
The militiamen in charge said cheerfully that they might as well elect Mr. Hou as mayor.
After all, Feng Pei is still detained here. This person also depends on how Mr. Hou will solve it. As the mayor, he can legitimately protect Xuanhu Town.
The townspeople agreed and were extremely excited.
Hou Qianshu said at the right time that he wanted Zhang Quan to be the mayor of the town. He was still the man who made suggestions in the town. When things were a little more peaceful, he would still tell fortunes and collect money, which would make the town more prosperous.
The townspeople were communicating with Hou Qianshu, but I stood by and had nothing to say.
The townspeople didn't pay much attention to me. Even if some people did, they would at most give me a kind smile.
At this time, I admired Hou Qianshu from the bottom of my heart.
It took just one night for him to be accepted by Xuanhu Town, and he almost took over Xuanhu Town.
He used all the tricks and words in this, but he didn't let anyone contradict him...
For example, if the militia took the initiative to make him the mayor, and he promoted Zhang Quan, this would be much better than if he said it himself.
…
It was not until noon that the crowd gradually dispersed.
Many militiamen were ordered to build dungeons. It was not only Feng Pei who was to be imprisoned, but also the bulk of his soldiers. None of these people could escape.
Hou Qianshu also asked me to go back and inform Liu Tianniu and the others first, and he would deliver the head of the Arrow Blade Evil Girl in the evening.
After Hou Qianshu's words and seeing the situation in the town clearly, I returned to Father Lu's coffin house with confidence.
When I entered the hospital, I found that Liu Tianniu and Liu Huayan were missing.
Also missing was the big scalper.
Only He Zhi was left sitting in the main room, holding the book of coffin skills and studying it intently.
I hurried into the main room and asked Taoist He Zhiliu where they were.
He Zhi raised his head slightly and said: "He accidentally killed a person and took Liu Huayan to deliver the body. He wanted to apologize and get the family's forgiveness."
Hearing this, I was startled and my mood was a bit complicated.
During this time, He Zhi continued to lower his head to look at the coffin technique.
At the end of the day, she murmured while reading: "I basically know how to make a coffin. After reading this book, I know the differences in coffins. Before we leave, I will make Father Lu's coffin." He Zhi These words did not surprise me.
The ghost woman also has a five-ghost wooden coffin. I even saw He Pheasant make it with my own eyes.
If this coffin technique is given to He Pheasant, it will indeed be of great use!
After that, we stayed in Xuanhu Town for another three days.
That night, Hou Qianshu sent the head of the Arrow Blade Evil Girl.
Liu Tianniu and Liu Huayan didn't come back until dawn the next day.
They had a lot of luggage, but when they came back, it had shrunk by at least two-thirds.
I didn't ask much, and I probably guessed that the missing things were most likely compensation for the woman and her family who were accidentally killed by him.
There is a saying that a man must kill to pay for his life, and a debt must be repaid for money. Liu Tianniu could not hang himself to make amends, so he could only make enough compensation to satisfy others like Hou Qianshu.
The reason why I stayed for three days is simple.
Liu Tianniu wanted to see the situation in the town, while Father Lu needed me and He Fei to bury him.
I originally asked Hou Qianshu how he could deal with the mother and son who were carrying the arrow-bladed evil girl, but Hou Qianshu told me that the secret must not be leaked, and he would naturally have a way to eliminate his grievances.
I didn't interfere much in this matter. After all, he is also Mr. Yin Yang, and his ability to pick up the Yin Po is much better.
Time passed by and we left Xuanhu Town early in the morning on the fourth day.
Hou Qianshu asked many villagers and militiamen to send us off.
Before leaving, I noticed that all the dark energy on the faces of the townspeople had dissipated.
But Hou Qianshu told me that I must learn solar arithmetic quickly.
As for anything else, he said no more.
I was confused and probably knew that this might have something to do with his ability to see my face.
Staying away from Xuanhu Town, we did not return to Jiemen County because we were afraid that things would change and we would be in trouble if Feng Pei's affairs were exposed.
After roughly discussing where to go with Liu Tianniu, Liu Tianniu told me that he would take the head back to see Jiang Yihong and asked me if I wanted him to fulfill his promise and go to Lijiacun first.
I immediately shook my head and said that I couldn't go back to Lijiacun now. I had only completed one piece of the experience Master gave me, and I still had two pieces to go.
Liu Tianniu directly said that he wanted me to go back to Tang Town with him. It happened that he was talking to Mr. Jiang and he could also discuss my matter.
I hesitated before telling me that Master asked me to return to Tang Town in half a year.
Now that I am fully prepared, I have only stayed outside for a month and a half.
If I go back early and don't get everything done, I will definitely disappoint Master and maybe ruin his plan.
After pausing for a moment, I took a deep breath and said, even if I have to go ahead of schedule, I still need to complete the experience, rescue my second uncle, and bury my father.
Liu Tianniu frowned and said nothing.
Liu Huayan was walking side by side with him. The two of them seemed to be discussing something. Their voices were too soft, so He Zhi and I couldn't hear clearly.
Not long after, Liu Tianniu's sitting posture straightened up again, still with the high crown on his head.
Liu Huayan walked up to He Zhi and I, and said softly: "Master means that when he returns to Jiuhe County, he can find a paper man to live with for a while. He will wait for you there, and I will practice with you. , when the time comes, we will go to Lijia Village, and after solving the problem, we will return to Tang Town together."
Liu Huayan's words made my expression slightly change again.
Liu Tianniu actually wants to compromise his time because of me?
I subconsciously turned my head and glanced behind me.
At this time, I felt a little regretful. Why didn't I ask Hou Qianshu, what does the first hexagram of Mr. Yin Yang represent?
If I had asked, I would have known why Liu Tianniu had such an attitude.
At this moment, Liu Huayan suddenly took out something from his waist.
I was shocked, this turned out to be the gossip tiger head mirror!
Instinctively, I wanted to look away quickly.
But my curiosity and desire for it make it difficult for me to do it...
