„Great Young Master, this personal name is Wu Tiehu, is in the village the tenant farmer, but loves leisure and hates work, likes the fly cutter making the stick, leaves uncultivated Tian Residence, has not married by the present, loner, poured had also once entered Township Militia, when training various result were first, afterward was unruly, was addicted to alcohol to stir up trouble, hit the person severe wound, was closed into the prison, now does not know how to put......” “大少,此人名为吴铁虎,也是庄上佃户,只是好逸恶劳,喜欢舞刀弄棍,荒废田宅,到现在还是未娶,孤家寡人一个,倒也曾进过乡勇,训练时各项成绩都是第一,后来桀骜不驯,又嗜酒滋事,打人重伤,被关入大狱,现在不知怎么又放出来了……” Nearby male servant is saying in the Wu Ming ear immediately. 旁边一名家丁就立即在吴明耳边说着。 At this time, Township Militia is seeing Wu Tiehu, shrinks in abundance, several actually go forward pleasantly surprised, declares the big brother. 此时,乡勇见着吴铁虎,也是纷纷一缩,有几个却惊喜上前,口称大哥。 ‚The somewhat fierce air/Qi, sees this physique actually, then entered the prison, is the prison tyrant first-class!’ ‘倒是有几分悍气,见这体格,便是进了大狱,也是狱霸一流！’ Wu Ming actually moves at heart. 吴明却是心里一动。 This person, the world of peace, mixes again, only then three chi (0.33 m) law of the land, the bustling streets sentence to beheading a road to be good, but is now different! 这种人,和平之世,再混下去,只有三尺王法,闹市处斩一条路好走,但现在不同！ And, although Township Militia trains qualified, has not passed through the blood fire, the critical moment, is lacks destroys all, despises the law of the land the courage. 并且,乡勇虽然训练合格,到底没有经过血火,关键时刻,更是缺少砸破一切,藐视王法的勇气。 In other words, must guarantee family/home protect guard, these Township Militia are bounden, but must pull out with the bystander to spelling, some deficient courage, if hoists a flag to revolt, resists the royal government, that will disperse directly. 也就是说,要保家护院,这些乡勇义不容辞,但要拉出去与外人对拼,就有些缺乏勇气,若要扯旗造反,对抗朝廷,那直接就会散了。 This Wu Tiehu arrives, is actually greatly good. 这个吴铁虎到来,却是大善。 Some meanings move at heart, in the surface actually does not reveal. 心里有些意动,表面上却是丝毫不露。 „What kind of? Young Master Ming? Whether some does have the qualifications?” “怎么样？明少爷？某家是否有着资格？” Wu Tiehu arrives at the near, the terse air/Qi threateningly, cups one hand in the other across the chest carelessly, says with a smile. 吴铁虎来到近前,精悍之气更加逼人,大大咧咧地一拱手,笑道。 „Since does not suppose the range, sure!” “既然不设范围,当然可以！” Wu Ming smiles: „Is only you comes the moment late, can know the crime otherwise? According to my family discipline, the roll-call is late, the principal offender should pull out ten whips, warns others against following a bad example!” 吴明一笑:“只是你晚来一刻,可知罪否？按照我家法,点名迟到,首犯该抽十鞭,以儆效尤！” „Un?” “嗯？” The Wu Tiehu eyeball stares, as if a tiger is really common, looks on a young male servant to be frightened immediately looks deathly pale, falls down, Wu Ming is the complexion is invariable. 吴铁虎眼珠一瞪,真的仿佛一头老虎一般,旁观一个小厮顿时被吓得脸色惨白,跌倒在地,吴明却是脸色不变。 If this from, has not then entered under him, does not listen to the obligation, incurred not the obedient thorn head, there is what using? And also this habit, kills as early as possible makes the number. 若是这还不从,便是不入他麾下,不听驱使,招了不听话的刺头,又有何用？并且还这习性,趁早弄死作数。 Although this person Muscles and Bones is sturdy, but only studied the shallow practicing martial arts method, most compares favorably with from the beginning the crossed over playboy child, is the character of Mortal Body Realm 4th Layer Inner Strength, does not need Feng Han to act, a Wu Ming hand can tidy up. 此人虽然筋骨粗壮,但到底只学了点粗浅练武法门,最多比得上一开始穿越的纨绔子,乃是肉身境四重内壮之人物,不用封寒出手,吴明一只手便可收拾了。 „Good, some violates a prohibition, deserves to accept punishment!” “不错,某家犯禁,该当认罚！” Wu Tiehu stared at Wu Ming one, laughs, suddenly partly kneels in the place: „Come!” 吴铁虎盯了吴明一眼,大笑一声,忽然半跪在地:“来吧！” „On!” “上！” Wu Ming nods, the side person held the leather whip to go forward. 吴明点点头,旁边就有一人持了皮鞭上前。 Pā! 啪！ The crack falls, Wu Tiehu stuffy snort/hum, conducts the back floats off a red mark. 鞭花落下,吴铁虎闷哼一声,背上就浮起一道红痕。 This whip is the ripe boasting makes, soaked the salt water, although can prevent to infect, but falls to the body actually does not feel better. 这鞭子乃是熟牛皮所造,又浸泡了盐水,虽然可以预防感染,但落到身上却不怎么好受。 Pā! 啪啪！ In the middle of the cold wind, ten whips blink, the male servant reported: „reporting Young master, executes!” 寒风当中,十鞭子眨眼而过,家丁就报道:“启禀公子,行刑完毕！” Wu Tiehu also seriously is a man, does not utter a word, suddenly stood up, moved under Muscles and Bones, glanced to the torturing male servant, disdained wear a look of: „Hehe...... Yan three you start not to have the strength, should not be the entire flower on last night woman?” 吴铁虎也当真是个汉子,就这么一声不吭,蓦然站起,活动了下筋骨,向用刑家丁一瞥,面带不屑:“嘿嘿……阎三你下手没力,该不会是全花在昨晚娘们身上了吧？” „Ok!” “好了！” A Wu Ming brow wrinkle, Wu Tiehu stops talking does not immediately say. 吴明眉头一皱,吴铁虎当即住口不言。 „Since you punish have also punished, has not abolished the Township Militia establishment, then gets down the martial arts contest!” “既然你罚也罚过,也未革除乡勇编制,便下去比武！” „Many thanks Young Master!” “多谢少爷！” Wu Tiehu drinks greatly, breaks in fights the circle, the attitude is spirited, such as the fierce tiger descends the mountain: „Who comes to fight with me?” 吴铁虎一声大喝,冲入战圈,意态昂扬,如猛虎下山:“谁来与我一斗？” „Congratulates Young Master, resulted in the talent!” “恭喜少爷,得了人才！” When this person is out, after exposing the skill in Wushu, Feng Han is actually the slight nod, congratulated to Wu Ming. 等到此人下场,展露出武艺之后,封寒却是微微点头,对吴明道贺。 „It is not the talent, at most somewhat fierce brave!” “不算人才,顶多有些悍勇罢了！” Wu Ming is the complexion is motionless: „For the time being first uses it, is liberal to grant, if refuses to accept my law finally , can only kill!” 吴明却是脸色不动:“暂且先用之,不吝赏赐,若最后还是不服我法,也只能杀了！” At this time experiences Reincarnation Mission, the Wu Ming mentality has changed twice immediately, although is far from regards the human life such as worthlessly, will also be the great talent becomes. Feng Han is listening so superficially, decides a person of life, is actually at heart greatly cold. 此时经历过两次轮回任务,吴明心态顿时变化,虽然谈不上视人命如草芥,但也是大器将成。封寒听着如此轻描淡写,决定一人之命,却又是心里大凜。 „Roar roar......” “吼吼……” At this time, Wu Tiehu just defeated the last opponent, sent out happily bellowed...... 这个时候,吴铁虎刚刚击败最后一个对手,发出得意的大吼…… ...... …… „Master Feng Han is laborious, first drinks bowl of Jiang tea!” “封寒师父辛苦,先来喝碗姜茶！” A early morning contends in martial arts, Wu Ming and Feng Han return to the fort hand in hand, shared the breakfast, the kitchen boiled out the hot ginger tea early, color like amber, bright red, burning, entered the abdomen to live warm, the whole person perspired immediately slightly, warm many. 一清晨比武下来,吴明与封寒携手回堡,共用早膳,厨房早熬煮了热腾腾的姜茶上来,色如琥珀,红澄澄,火辣辣,入腹生温,整个人顿时微微出汗,暖和不少。 „Good!” “不错！” Wu Ming also drank one bowl: „Township Militia that instruction kitchen, comes today, everyone also delivers two bowls, un...... sends five steamed buns again, additional meat!” 吴明也喝了一碗:“吩咐厨房,今日前来的乡勇,每人也送上两碗,嗯……再发五个馒头,加块肉！” Feng Han sees this, actually recalled a moment ago one: 封寒见此,却是回想起刚才一幕: ‚Township Militia big ratio, Wu Tiehu, although seizes the head, cannot do to the will of the people, chose by acclamation to decline, finally Township Inspector(s) fell to Zhao Song on, only made up service Ding, but Young master enjoyed ten taels of silver coins, this dozen , the mutual balance, seriously was deep the political strategy three tastes, does not know that was where the given by heaven or from must come......’ ‘乡勇大比,吴铁虎虽然抢占鳌头,奈何不得人心,公推中落了下来,最后乡巡检落到赵松手上,只补了役丁,不过公子又赏了十两银子,这一打一拉,互相制衡,当真深得权谋三味,也不知道是天授还是从哪得来……’ „This Inspector Office, seems like that superposes with the Township Militia function, but in fact, the good and evil is also an officer skin, some uses......” “这巡检所,看似与乡勇职能重合,但实际上,好歹也是一层官皮,有些用处的……” Wu Ming clamped a dessert, resembles to have no intention to ask: „Previous Master Feng inquires the Zhou Family news, unexpectedly several trade route information, have not known that from where can come?” 吴明夹了一块点心,又似无意问着:“上次封师父打探周家消息,居然还有几条商路情报,不知从何得来？” „Before is , the brothers take care of...... me in black and white two, calculates some relation(s)......” “都是之前兄弟照应……我在黑白两道,都算有些关系……” Feng Han is insufficiently detailed, but Wu Ming one hear understood. 封寒语焉不详,但吴明一听就懂了。 The way of the world non- peace, mountain bandits are many. 世道不靖,山匪就多。 Also there is that forest outlaws, the novel story-telling script looked, liked Lishan tying the stronghold, was known as that took the loyalty as first, does deal that enforced justice on behalf of Heaven. 也有那绿林好汉,小说话本看多了,就喜欢立山结寨,号称以义气为先,做替天行道的勾当。 Naturally, mostly is the small troubles, the officers suppress extinguish, some survivals, have the meaningful glance, was the senior official Great Household running dog. 当然,大多都是小患,官兵一剿就灭,也有的幸存下来,都是有着眼色,做了高官大户的走狗。 Before Feng Han drifts, perhaps has relation(s) in this aspect. 封寒之前漂泊,或许就有着这方面的关系。 Wu Ming sees this, beckons with the hand slightly, making the miscellaneous personnel draw back, said own idea: „My township Inspector Office, had to arrest the responsibility of bandits and thieves, but also trains frankly and uprightly, first trains, you start the news, instigated several bandits to start to the Zhou Family trade route, when the time comes I suppressed again together, first taught to Zhou Family small!” 吴明见此,稍微摆摆手,让闲杂人等退下,将自己的想法说了:“我乡巡检所,本来就有缉捕盗贼之责,又可光明正大训练,先借此练兵,你去发动消息,挑拨几家土匪对周家商路下手,到时候我再一起剿了,先给周家一个小小的教训！” „This...... this is......” “这……这可是……” Feng Han has a big shock: „Impossible...... three 18 strongholds, no dares to begin......” 封寒大惊失色:“不可能……三家十八寨,没一个敢动手的……” „They do not begin, can't we compel them to begin?” “他们不动手,我们不可以逼他们动手么？” Wu Ming sneers saying: „Let alone......, even if they shrink the egg, we are still direct on, afterward exterminates one, didn't become?” 吴明冷笑道:“更何况……就算他们缩卵,我们也直接上,事后再剿灭一家,不就成了？” Feng Han changes countenance terrified. 封寒悚然动容。 aura of this type of blood fire, making him not see Young master of Aristocratic Family large clan, instead probably ran into the generals of blood and iron, some scruple tunnels: 这种血火之气息,令他不似见着了世家大族的公子,反而好像遇到了铁血的将帅,就有些迟疑地道: „Is only...... in the Duke surface can stand firmly, but in secret, actually declares war with Zhou Family, did not die continuous Ah!” “只是……公面上能站住脚,但私底下,却是与周家宣战,不死不休了啊！” „Doesn't die continuous?” “不死不休？” Wu Ming laughs at one: „In Zhou Family to my Wu Family only successor, present age Patriarch starts, between two, doesn't die continuous?” 吴明嗤笑一声:“早在周家对我这个吴家唯一的继承人,当代家主下手的时候,两家之间,不是早已不死不休了么？” „At this time the end of the year, the Zhou Family company must send under escort the silver money and present to return to the district, if broke, truncation altogether, although the Zhou Family family property is big, the expenses are also big, I thought when it can support......” “此时年关,周家的商号必然要押解银钱、礼品回县,若是一股脑断了、截了,周家家业虽大,开销也大,我看它能撑到什么时候……” This was also to the point on. 这就又说到点子上了。 Although Zhou Family has the field 50 area units, but clansman over a thousand, two people in office need to support, expenses what kind of as Mountains and Seas? 周家虽然有田五十顷,但族人上千,又有两个官身需要支持,开销何等如山如海？ In turn, Wu Family 20 area units, so long as actually raises Wu Qing and Wu Ming two, once in a while gives financial aid Clan to be able, the disparity, cannot simply the truth idea. 反过来,吴家二十顷地,却只要养吴晴与吴明两个,间或接济一点宗族便可,其中差距,简直不可以道理计。 And, the official family member pursues commerce, the influence is not good, can only operate the trumpet in the name of children of domestic slaves, this also has a difference. 并且,官员家属从商,影响都是不好,只能用家生子的名义开小号,这又有一层不同。 „Perhaps if so...... Zhou Family must stamp one's foot!” “若如此……周家恐怕要跳脚！” Feng Han thought under: „Pours also calculates to remove firewood from under the pot, but Zhou Family, if counter-attacks......” 封寒思索了下:“倒也算釜底抽薪,但周家若是反扑……” „I feared that they do not come!” “我就怕他们不来！” Wu Ming sneers: „Happen to catches the whole lot in a dragnet!” 吴明冷笑一声:“正好一网打尽！” Wisp of Murderous Qi appeared, making Feng Han hit to tremble. 一缕杀气就浮现,令封寒不由打了个寒颤。 ...... …… In the following several days, County City has been uneventful. 接下来的几天内,县城一直风平浪静。 The matter of Qingshi Village, the Government also sent for before, looked at the bone ash and zombie at will, settles a lawsuit carelessly. 就连之前青石村的事情,衙门也不过派了人下来,随意看了看骨灰与僵尸,就草草结案。 Zhou Family has not moved slightly, abolished odd/surplus to become the Deacon seat on own initiative, swallows an insult, reduces and solves the appearance of arms. 周家丝毫未动,更是主动革除了余成的执事位子,一副忍气吞声,化解干戈的模样。 Wu Ming has not appealed to anything, every day trains hard silently, with the Township Inspector(s) ten several people, as well as Township Militia mixes up, exposes the ability, the standing erect prestige. 吴明也没有申诉什么,每日就是默默苦练,与乡巡检十数人,以及乡勇混在一起,展露能力,竖立威信。 Two seemingly calm, but in fact ambushes the lackey, this time silent contracts strength well, only waits the thunder to strike! 两家看似波澜不惊,但实际上都是潜伏爪牙,此时的沉默不过更好地收缩力量,只待雷霆一击！ The time is unconscious, to the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. 时间不知不觉,就到了腊八。 The cold winter season, each and every family took the corn, red jujube, dried longan, lotus seed, mung bean and other thing boil Laba gruel, smell sharp aroma. 寒冬时节,家家户户取了粟米、红枣、桂圆、莲子、绿豆等物熬煮腊八粥,香气扑鼻。 At this time, has vanished some time Feng Han actually to come back, reported to Wu Ming: „Had completed completely, spreads the Zhou Family caravan news, does not dare direct contact Mountain Stonghold, fears to keep the evidence, but the circuit diagram has delivered!” 这时候,已经消失一段时间的封寒却是回来,对吴明禀告道:“已经全部办妥,将周家商队消息放出,不敢直接联络山寨,怕留下证据,但线路图已经送到！” „Very good! We must celebrate the new year, the bandit must wreak havoc, can fat years Ah!” “很好！咱们要过年,土匪也要肆虐一把,才能过个肥年啊！” Wu Ming blows the gruel: „My family spent the so big price to inquire news that divulging gave them all, just like the fat to the mouth, where can bear?” 吴明吹了吹粥:“我家费了如此大代价才打听出的消息,尽数泄漏给他们,正如肥肉到嘴,哪能忍得住呢？” „Even if can bear, did not have relation(s)!” “就算忍得住,也没关系了！” Wu Ming drinks up the gruel, brings Feng Han, arrives develops on the martial stage. 吴明喝完粥,就带着封寒,来到演武场上。 At this time cold wind bone-chilling cold, but more than ten Inspector Office men, under the leadership of Zhao Song and Wu Tiehu, a trace are drilling carefully, side also has Township Militia that selects carefully. 此时寒风凛冽,但十几个巡检所的汉子,在赵松与吴铁虎的带领之下,一丝不苟地操练着,旁边还有精心选出的乡勇。 Sees Wu Ming, is drinks high: „Has seen Young Master!” 见到吴明,都是高喝:“见过少爷！” Compared with before, more several points of military discipline solemn and respectful meaning. 比起之前来,更多了几分军容肃穆之意。 „Dispense with ceremony!” “免礼！” After these date and time, Wu Ming also found out the subordinate, in the middle of Township Inspector(s), Zhao Song is quiet, but there is a acting, recognizes several characters, the prestige is very high, but Wu Tiehu martial arts excels, several little brothers follow. 经过这些时日,吴明也将手下人摸清楚了,乡巡检当中,赵松沉默寡言,但有担当,也认得几个字,威望很高,而吴铁虎武功高强,也有几个小弟跟着。 Naturally, at this time, gathers under Wu Ming. 当然,此时,还是汇聚在吴明麾下。 „These equipment, you exchange!” “这些装备,你们换上！” Wu Ming beckons with the hand, two male servants lifted several big boxes, suffers a relapse again on the ground. 吴明摆摆手,两个家丁就抬了数个大箱子,重重落在地上。 „This is......” “这是……” Wu Tiehu opens looked, sees a box is leather armor, maintains good, two even also beset with by the iron sheet, protects chest and other strategic points, the defensive power was quite good. 吴铁虎打开一看,就见一箱子是皮甲,都保养甚好,其中两件甚至还镶有铁片,护住心口等要害,防御力相当不错了。 Another box, is good Tempered Steel Blade, the cutting edge is actually dodging the cold light, there is a strong bow hard crossbow, the good thing that carries out from armament warehouse. 另外一箱,却是上好的百炼钢刀,刀口闪着寒光,又有强弓硬弩,都是从武备库里搬出的好东西。
