Chapter 371 Spice Village
The night was not peaceful. When the Lang Guan and the second head of the family were practicing secretly with the spirit stone in their hands, they shot two cold arrows from the slanting thorns.
The archer did not covet the spirit stones in the hands of the three brothers, but just fell in love with the storage bags hanging around the waists of the three brothers. I suspect that the three brothers have food or new money hidden on them -
Even if there is no new money or food, the storage bags on the three brothers can be exchanged for some food.
In short, killing people and robbing goods is indeed a sure-fire deal.
Thanks to Tian Lin's vigilance, the cold arrow shot down by Tian Lin with strong wind when it came.
Flying to this point, Tian Lin followed the direction of the arrow and quickly found the person who fired the cold arrow and killed him.
I don't know how many people this scene fell into the eyes of many people. Everyone knew how powerful Tian Lin was, so no one had any ideas about the three brothers in the second half of the night.
At dawn, the Langguan and the second head of the family stopped meditating, and the sound of bells and drums sounded again where the "hukou house" was located.
But there are not many people who actually go to the household house to take the exam and become a household slave.
At first, although there are Huahualang who arrives in Beijing from other places every day.
But there are fewer and fewer Huahualang who can reach Beijing. Among them, there are very few who are qualified to be a house slave in the exam.
Secondly, more and more people who are unwilling or unable to be slaves of aristocratic families have to turn into bandits in order to beg for their lives.
They hid in the mountains and forests near the middle of the capital, cutting the paths of the Huahualang who traveled to Beijing from afar, or looted the servants who transported goods to the aristocratic families.
Because there are more and more bandits, there are fewer and fewer Huahualang who can come to Beijing alive, so the households appear particularly deserted.
The three brothers Tian Lin asked one morning and only gathered together in the afternoon.
The Lang Guan first spoke to the second in command, Hetian Lin, and said, "If you can't be a servant of a noble family, you can't survive as a refugee. There seem to be only two best ways to survive.
One is to be hired by villagers. Do some short-term work for the villagers. One is to join the bandit gang and become a strong man who robbed."
The second dean said: "There are indeed employed people in each village to do short-term work, but this kind of people need to hire people to do their jobs. Very few families. Even if there are, they are always stingy and are willing to give them a few bites of food.
Besides, the villagers have always been willing to hire skilled people. We are just a newcomer, how can we compete for those who come here for seven or eight years to do short-term work Who is it? ”
The Lang Guan said, "But if you join the bandit gang, there will be more bandit monks and less porridge, and it will be difficult to beg for life--"
They actually have some surplus grain in their hands. The reason why they are so anxious is that there is always one surplus grain. The day will be eaten.
What if I can’t help Tingyu Zhenren after I finish eating the surplus grain? "Whether it's a bandit or a short-term worker, the most urgent task is to find out the residence of Lao Qi first."
To this day, Tian Lin still calls Tingyu Zhenren Lao Qi.
He told Lang Guan and Erdang Family: "I have inquired about it today that the Wang family has six yards under the capital of Beijing Zhongwaicheng, and twelve villages under the capital;
Wang An of the Wang family, It is the young owner of the Spice House among the 12 villages outside the Wang Family.
So I guess that if Lao Qi follows Wang An, he will be arranged by Wang An to settle in the Spice House."
< br>Officer Lang asked Tian Lin: "Brother means, let's go to the Spice House to find the boss?"
One of them is called Lao Qi and the other is called Lao Da.
Although the words are different, they all know who the other party is referring to, and they do not correct each other.
Tian Lin said: "Let's go to the Spice House and first find out about Lao Qi's whereabouts. With Lao Qi's new servant, he will help us introduce work in the Spice House, are you still afraid of going hungry? Then even Lao Qi will be the one who is the new servant. I can't help us find a job, whether to work as a short-term worker or join a bandit, I can also listen to Lao Qi's idea - after all, he has a different identity, and I guess he knows more news than us."
The Lang Guan and the second head looked at each other, and both thought what Tian Lin said made sense, but they had inquired all morning today. But because people around were not familiar with each other and were on guard against each other, there was no real information that was really useful.
As for where the spice shop is, they don’t know.
"This is the village six or seven east of the village, which is where the Wang family's spice farm is. We are on our way now and we will definitely arrive before dark."
Seeing that Tian Lin has even found out where he is going, Lang Guan and Er The head of the family will no longer say much. The three of them had no luggage to pack up and immediately set off towards the direction of the spice shop.
But to go to the Spice House, you need to pass through several village entrances.
The entrances of these villages do not have only gatehouses like the villages around the houses, but have built forts. Not only are outsiders not allowed to enter, but once someone approaches, they will inevitably shoot poisonous arrows and hurt people.
"These villages are all the manors of each aristocratic family and the private property of each aristocratic family. Don't say that we refugees dare not approach, even the soldiers of the court dare not trespass without permission." >
When Tian Lin and the other two set off, they met two Huahualangs who were also going to the spice shop.
The two Huahualangs are brothers and sisters, and they went to the Spice House to look for relatives.

According to what his brother and sister said, they were originally following their father to be bandits on the mountain. But the day before yesterday, his father died, and when he died, his brother and sister went to the Spice House to join their biological mother.
According to his father's last words, their biological mother went to the spice shop to be a concubine when their brother and sister were young. Although there is not much food and clothing, I think I can arrange a way out for the brother and sister.
"These villages are so strict in and out, and I believe the same is true for the Spice House. If you ask your brother and sister to go to the Spice House, how can you go to the village to find your mother?"
The Lang Guan asked, and the young man replied, "The Spice House will always be in charge every month every month." Someone will transport spice logs into it. At that time, people who can ask for the delivery of spice logs to come into the village to inquire about the news. "
The boy said, "I don't ask for any way out in the spice warehouse. , I just hope that my mother could take her into the village to be a concubine for her younger sister! "
His request was very simple, and she actually wanted his sister to be a concubine for others. !
Tian Lin and the other two looked at his sister. The little girl was skinny and only eight or nine years old.
It is really against the law of nature for her to be a concubine at her age;
However, everyone knows that this is the best way out that a young man can think of for his sister.
If the little girl cannot enter the village to be a concubine, she will sooner or later fall into the hands of bandits and suffer humiliation and die.
After all, although the young man held a broken sword, he had no cultivation.
"If Ling Mei really went to the spice shop as a concubine, she would have a way out. But little brother, what are you going to do?"
"I am a slave to others, and others don't want it either; I have to go back to be a bandit--"
Go back to be a bandit?
The Lang Guan shook his head. He saw that the young man was not only young, but also had no cultivation.
How can a mortal without cultivation become a bandit even if he is not robbed by others?
However, the Lang Guan did not say what he thought.
Because of this world, not only the young men are destined to have no way out, but also the Qi Refiners, there is no way out. "There is the spice shop ahead. We will be here after crossing this mountain." When the Lang Guan was thinking about it, the young man suddenly spoke.
