"They, they want you to pay for the house? Master Yang."
A slightly familiar middle-aged man next to him sighed and said: "Master Yang used his great power to kill the pig demon, but it also caused the nearby houses to collapse.
These people are extremely poor and have a hard time making a living. Now they don’t even have a place to live. They can only become refugees and may starve to death soon..."
As soon as these words came out, the people surrounding Yang Lin looked wildly, and half of those people who claimed to be gods dispersed with a bang, and they all hid and watched from a distance.
It seemed that he was waiting to see how Yang Lin would handle it.
Everyone had seen the previous situation.
When the pig demon came over, Hu Ya was dragging him, so no one was hurt.
When the residents on both sides of the street saw this terrifying scene, they naturally fled far away.
Yang Lin was also in the eyes of the sky and did not see the existence of the people around him, so he did not lead the pig demon out of the city, but beat the pig demon to a pulp with a brutal blow.
But I never thought that the house would be so careless at this time. It only shook slightly and everything collapsed.
It’s normal to think about it.
In the old town in the west of the city, the houses where the poor people live are made of earth and stones except for thatched houses. There are not even any foundations, even square adobe bricks. If they are touched, they will fall down.
However, no matter how bad the house is, it is still a house that people have lived in for more than ten years, and now it collapsed...
Yang Lin counted about seventeen or eighteen.
"come here."
Yang Lin waved to Li Gongfu.
Capt. Li ran over quickly.
Compared with the last time we met, his attitude was much more respectful and he said with a smile: "Master, if something happens, I will do my best. These people don't appreciate your kindness in exterminating demons and saving lives. Instead, they start blackmailing you. This is because you are a generous person, Master, so , they just slapped their noses on their faces, let’s see if I can give them some tricks to get rid of the trouble.”
"Who asked you to do this? Calculate how much silver it will take to rebuild the house."
Yang Lin said coldly.
"this……"
"Is fifty taels enough?"
"That's almost enough." Li Gongfu had no choice but to turn around and look at the surrounding houses, making a preliminary estimate.
Yang Lin took out the money from the leather bag at his waist and threw it over, "Help me calculate the compensation, divide it up, and let them build the house."
After saying that, he turned around and shook his head, then entered the martial arts gym.
There was a faint sound of discussion behind them.
"As far as I'm concerned, the government has to come up with this money. After all, Master Yang is the demon slayer..."
"How could the government pay this money? It's not like they caused the collapse. The pig demon should be the one to compensate. Unfortunately, the pig demon was beaten to the ground by Master Yang, and there's no way he can find it even if he wants to."
"I advise you to move away as soon as possible. Don't be next to the Zhenyuan Martial Arts Gym. If next time, some monster comes to seek revenge, then who can bear it? Even if Yang Gym Leader is powerful, he is the only one who is. We people If you are harmed, who can you go to to complain?"
"Yes, I think it was a bit excessive for Master Yang to beat the pig demon to death. He could have been lured away, so why did he beat him to death here? Even if he was captured and handed over to the Yamen for custody, it would be better."
Everyone was talking a lot.
Previously, some people thought Yang Lin was good at killing monsters.
Later, everyone became worried.
I felt that Yang Lin was meddling in other people's affairs, causing trouble, and making everyone feel uneasy.
All kinds of gossip were introduced into the martial arts hall bit by bit. Some of them were heard by Yang Lin with his sensitive ears, and some were heard by others who deliberately spoke loudly so that he could hear them.
"Huya, what do you think?"
"These people have gone too far. If Master hadn't killed the pig demon, how many tragedies would have happened? Not only are they not grateful, but they blame Master..."
Huya was also aggrieved, but there was nothing she could do.
Facing these miserable people, we can't just slash them with a knife.
"Let's go, let's go and build a wooden house outside the city, live there first, and start moving."
Yang Lin smiled and shook his head.
To be honest, he really didn't want to hear these gossips, but he wasn't angry at all, even though some people would blame him for being nosy and causing trouble.
However, now that his reputation has been established, he can feel an inexplicable force quietly gathering towards his spiritual platform. Although that force is obscure, just touching it makes his heart slightly lifted and his mental strength improved a little. Make progress.
'I don't know if it's merit or the power of faith. Anyway, killing the pig demon is still very beneficial. "
Compared with the strength that is about to improve, changing a place to live is simply not a problem.
After all, Tianshui Street in the west corner of the city is a civilian area. It is neither prosperous nor clean, and the water is not sweet.
Living here is actually very uncomfortable.
Even if someone comes to learn from a teacher, they have to think twice, for fear of contaminating themselves with some poverty.
If you want to make the martial arts gym more prosperous.
On the contrary, it is better to move farther away. Rich people who are interested in learning arts will spend some time and go outside the city. I think they will be more sincere.
At that moment, the three masters and apprentices packed up their packages and went out.
The Prison Suppressing Martial Arts Hall was basically impoverished. The fifty taels of silver that Huya had just earned from his mission were also lost to Yang Lin. Therefore, there were no valuables that he had to carry, only some pots and bowls. With the gourd pot and a few people's bedding, they left Tianshui Street.
Yang Lin also dipped his bald pen in smelly ink and wrote a notice telling others that he was moving to Nanshan outside the city.
It is surrounded by water and mountains, and the scenery is beautiful. It is very simple to find a place to build a house and hunt.
Others live outside the city and are worried about danger, but he doesn't have to worry at all.
Besides, although Yang Lin felt that these people were a little timid and too careless, he had to admit that they were right to be worried.
He counterattacked with a rake and defeated the pig demon, which actually left many hidden dangers.
Maybe someone or a demon will come to seek revenge.
Innocent people may also be harmed.
Wutong Shen, you will understand it as soon as you hear this name.
There must be at least five.
Moreover, he also heard it when everyone was whispering before.
Among the merchants and people in the city, the Yang family is not the only one who secretly worships the God of Five Powers.
On the contrary, there are many.
The reason is very simple.
Because in their eyes, not all Wutong gods are evil.
Even this pig head sometimes helps worshipers earn money and gain some wealth.
As long as their needs are met, some windfall can still be obtained.
Of course, most people who worship such evil gods will feel a little uneasy in their back houses, and the hats on their heads will be a little green, but for most people, this is actually not a big deal.
Isn’t there a saying?
If you want to live a decent life, you have to have a little green on your head.
Compared to having a prosperous family, getting promoted and getting rich, whether it is enshrining beauties, or even secretly capturing some poor refugees to offer blood food, a large number of people are willing to do it.
As for why the government doesn't care.
It’s also easy to understand.
In this era, the government needs superficial stability and does not want to offend something it cannot afford to offend.
Besides, if the people don’t call the officials to account, even the victims themselves don’t think it’s a bad thing, so why should the government bother to do so?
What happened in the Yang family was probably because the pig demon had made too much noise, or perhaps the second young master Yang and the third young master Yang were a bit bloody and couldn't bear the grievance. Their family was rich, so they thought of inviting experts. , simply get rid of the scourge.
The reason why I say so much is because Yang Lin feels that since he came to this world, he must find out what the people of this era are thinking.
When it comes to merit and the power of incense, if you can't figure anything out, just follow the example of Fa Hai and fight around. You may be a good person but also a bad person.
When the time comes, it will be thankless, so why bother?
As soon as he reached the gate of the city, someone in a carriage hurriedly caught up with him.
"Erlang, come back. It's my father who is sorry for you and your mother. No matter what happens, the Yang family is still your root.
After you come back, some businesses will be handed over to you. Moreover, your eldest brother now has an official status. If he manages it well, he can also find a good future for you. "
An old voice came out.
Yang Lin looked back and saw the gentle and elegant face he had seen in his memory where the curtain of the luxurious carriage was opened.
This old man was indeed majestic and majestic.
It can be seen that when he was young, he should be a handsome guy.
Next to the carriage, there was another person following, the old housekeeper of Yang Mansion, who was looking over with some flattery at this time.
Of course, the original second young master who lost his front teeth after falling down, who should be called the third young master, was also following him, looking at him with cold eyes.
"You are so capable? Why didn't you help the Yang family early when the Yang family was in trouble? Why did you have to wait in the martial arts gym after a disaster occurred?"
Yang Lin laughed: "Old man, you have mistaken me. Who am I? I am just an ordinary refugee with no father or mother, and no ranking."
After saying this, I never looked back.
Go out of the city.
In the memory, the image of a woman in red was quietly broken, and finally, it seemed that she could see her smile when she was about to enter the crack.
