He cooperated with the Sea Dragon King on one condition, that is, the Sea Dragon King's people could not harm You King's people and the common people.
The Sea Dragon King broke his promise.
King You's people were all seriously injured, and many villagers were seriously injured. At this critical juncture of the autumn harvest, being injured would cost half the life of the whole family.
This is worse than killing them.
Li Tiejiang collapsed. He felt that he was a sinner and did not dare to stay for a moment longer.
So he packed up his things and tried to escape.
However, he was still targeted by Long Carpenter.
Just when Li Tiejiang was about to walk out of the military camp, he found that Li Zhao was looking at him coldly with his men.
Bang!
Tiejiang Li's things fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
His dark face was full of panic and fear, especially when he saw Li Zhao's eyes, his heart felt like being pricked by needles.
The prince is... very disappointed in him!
Tiejiang Li was at a loss. His mouth opened and closed slightly, but he couldn't even utter a single quibble.
Shasha's footsteps sounded, followed by villagers from the surrounding villages.
They all came closer, with puzzled, confused and angry expressions on their faces!
The owner of Lijiazhai is called Li Dongqiang. He is forty-five years old this year and can be considered a grandfather.
He was also the head of Lijiazhai. At this moment, his body was hunched over, his face was dark, and his big, rough, cracked hands slapped Blacksmith Li hard on the face. He gritted his teeth and roared: "You are the one who ate the inside out?"
Tiejiang Li received the slap but did not resist and lowered his head in shame.
"Speak!" Li Dongqiang spat out his saliva and veins popped out on his forehead.
Tiejiang Li still said nothing.
"My lord, don't you treat me well?"
"Or do I, Li Jiazhai, owe you something?"
"Is your heart dark?"
Li Dongqiang was heartbroken. Although Li Tiejiang had nothing to do with him, Li Tiejiang was his matchmaker after all.
This is equivalent to half a son.
Now, this person has done such an ungrateful thing, and Li Dongqiang feels the most uncomfortable.
Li Tiejiang lowered his head and let Li Dongqiang curse angrily.
The rest of the people in Lijiazhai also looked at him coldly, as if they were looking at a stranger.
They never thought that the honest and honest Li Tiejiang would engage in such a betrayal.
"When the prince didn't come here, who was oppressing us people? Who ruined our family?"
"It's the Du family, these gangsters. Have you forgotten all about your mother-in-law?"
"Your mother-in-law was found for you by the leader of the village. Where is your conscience? If you marry a daughter-in-law, you will cheat us, the people of the Li family village, right?"
"Son of a bitch, the prince pays you such a high salary and makes you eat meat for every meal. How many days have you been able to eat meat in the past thirty years?"
The people in Lijiazhai couldn't bear it anymore, so they rushed up and cursed Blacksmith Li angrily.
They are all a group of people with a strong sense of honor. In this era when it is basically impossible to leave the village, the village is everything to everyone.
Although everyone is now working under King You, there is also a sense of collective honor.
There is an invisible competition between every village.
The prince's kindness to everyone is seen in everyone's eyes and remembered in their hearts.
But now, just because Li Tiejiang has brought shame to the entire Li family village, they are ready to beat Li Tiejiang to death.
"That's enough!" Li Tiejiang couldn't bear the poke, and roared with tears in his face, which shocked everyone: "Do you think I am willing?"
"I don't want this either...I never thought of this..."
"At first, when they found me, I didn't even know the prince... let alone what kind of person he was..."
"They said they would give me twenty acres of prime land and a hundred dollars. If it were you, would you be tempted?"
Li Tiejiang cried and said: "If I had known that the prince was such a person... I would not have agreed even if I was given ten thousand gu..."
"Can't you refuse them?" someone asked angrily.
"Refuse?" Li Tiejiang smiled and said sadly: "You are also people who have seen the power of gangsters. Can you really refuse? Can you refuse?"
"I'm thirty, I just got married and had children... It doesn't matter if they beat me... But they took my mother-in-law and the child in her belly... What can I do?"
There was silence.
Some people are angry, some are cold-eyed, some are emotional...
"I know it's too late to say anything now." Li Tiejiang looked up with tears in his eyes. He was an honest man, but he had done something wrong and felt very uncomfortable. He looked at Li Zhao and begged: "Your Majesty... I know that those who betray are not worthy of forgiveness or sympathy... I am willing to lead the way. I have only one request, save my wife and children... I will die to apologize after the incident is completed."
Except for some people in Lijiazhai who sympathized with Li Tiejiang, the rest were angry and thought he deserved to die.
Everyone's beautiful life was broken because of this person. It's a lie not to hate him in his heart.
But Li Zhao knew very well that even if there was no Blacksmith Li, there would still be Blacksmith Wu and Blacksmith Wang.
There are such people in any era, and everyone has their own choices, some active and some passive.
But whether it is active or passive, betrayal is betrayal.
Li Zhao looked at Li Tiejiang coldly and said, "Lead the way!"
Tiejiang Li immediately wiped away his tears and said no more nonsense.
He knew that it didn't mean much whether he spoke or not. What he had to do now was to find his wife.
As long as she can survive, it will all be worth it.
Wuyun Mountain, foot of the mountain.
Li Bin looked at Tiejiang Li with a frown and said, "Why did you bring us here?"
Even Li Zhao and the others are familiar with this mountain, because it is the closest mountain to Prince You's Mansion.
The mountains are steep and forested.
There are so many plants inside that it is difficult to walk.
Every time they cut down trees, they come here.
Li Tiejiang said: "Sea Dragon King and his gang's hideout is in that mountain."
"What?"
Everyone in King You's guard was shocked.
Is this gangster's den right in front of you?
They couldn't believe their ears. If Li Tiejiang didn't lie to everyone, wouldn't it mean that everyone was under the surveillance of this group of gangsters?
Li Tiejiang said: "Your Majesty, I really didn't lie to you. They are really on the mountain, but they are all on the north side of the mountain."
Wuyun Mountain is very large and undulating. There are many small hills and mountains around it, making up this big mountain.
The villagers usually stay at the foot of the mountain and rarely go to the mountainside because there are too many ferocious animals on it.
As for the north side of the mountain, no one has ever been there.
Li Zhao immediately said: "Lead the way!"
"Your Majesty..." Li Bin was still a little suspicious. If this was a trap, it would be troublesome.
"Let's go." Li Zhao didn't say much.
They followed Blacksmith Li into the mountains.
