Liao Zhai's Refining God

Chapter 288 Dragon God
At this time, not only the patriarch's eyes widened, but the younger boys behind him all stopped, no longer making noise, only breathing heavily.The sky was full of wind and snow, and the whistling north wind seemed to have stopped in their place, only this woman was reflected in their eyes.

"Unexpectedly, there are women like fairies in our village! I haven't discovered it before." This is the common thought of these people at this time.

Two years ago, Yunniang and Zhang Hanyu rented a bullock cart at night and returned to the old house in Songshan Village. Since then, it is common for villagers to show up in the village, and they have basically never seen Zhang Hanyu.

Although Zhang Zhuqian is gone, he still bought a lot of property during his lifetime. Because of his fame, most of the property in the village was under his name. Later, he was dismissed due to official fraud, but the fame of Juren was not cancelled. Still enjoy the treatment of tax exemption.Therefore, the villagers are willing to put the land under the name of the Zhang family and hand over a certain amount of grain to the Zhang family every year.

Because Songshan Village is far away from the county seat, people in the yamen seldom come here, so this place has become a forgotten corner.

Therefore, in the past two years, some villagers knew that Zhang Zhuqian was gone, and the grain handed over to the Zhang family gradually decreased.Although Yun Niang was very aggressive, she went door to door to beg for money, but the villagers bullied the two of them as women, and there was no man to call the shots, so they became more and more arrogant, and even [-]% of them stopped handing in food. The [-]% of the farm income that the villagers turned in to maintain the family has been stretched for the past two years, and it has begun to suffer.

"Ahem. You are Miss Zhang Hanyu. In terms of seniority, I am your uncle. Your father really took good care of me in Songshan Village when he was alive. Thanks to him, we in Songshan Village paid a lot less taxes.

But now the Dragon God has taken a fancy to the girl. Yesterday I received a dream from the Dragon God, asking us to send the girl to the Qinglong Gorge before dusk tonight. If we violate it, it will bring great disaster to Songshan Village.The order of respecting the gods cannot be violated, and I hope that the girl will take pity on our elders in Songshan Village. " said the old man.

"Miss, you can't. There is an evil dragon entrenched in the Qinglong Gorge, and you will be swallowed by the evil dragon if you go there." Yunniang said urgently.

"Yunniang. Don't blaspheme the gods." Zhang Hanyu quickly stopped Yunniang, then looked at the patriarch and said, "Since I have no choice, I am willing to go. But after I go, you can't make things difficult for Yunniang."

"Girl, please don't worry, we will definitely treat Yunniang as well as before." The patriarch said.

"Yunniang!" Zhang Hanyu turned to look at Yunniang and said: "My father kept his promise and was upright all his life. Now he is gone, but we can't shame him. After I die, you will wait here for my husband-in-law to come , hand this letter to him. The engagement matter is over now. Let people know that my Zhang family is not a villain who breaks promises and abandons promises, but that things are not going well, and this marriage promise cannot be fulfilled."

"Miss, woo woo woo!" Yun Niang couldn't help crying.

"Since the girl has agreed, let's hurry up and dress up, and we will go into the mountain in two hours. The weather is bad now, and it will take an hour to get there, so don't delay it." The old man urged.

"Let, let." At this moment, a voice sounded from behind the group of people.

Everyone turned their heads and saw a scholar wearing a light blue leather jacket, carrying a bookcase, covered with snowflakes, standing behind everyone.

"Where are you from, scholar, what are you doing in Songshan Village?" the patriarch asked.

"Xiaosheng is Wang Lin, a scholar from Guobei County, Jinhua Prefecture. He has traveled a long distance to meet his future father-in-law, Mr. Zhang Zhuqian, and to marry his wife who has never been married." Wang Lin bowed her hands politely.Previously, Wang Lin had heard a general idea, and already had a plan in her heart.

"It's my aunt!" Yunniang wept with joy when she heard that, and jumped up all of a sudden.

Zhang Hanyu stared blankly at Wang Lin, who was covered in frost and snow, her eye circles couldn't help turning red, and the tears couldn't stop flowing down, but she still stopped them abruptly.

"The scholar, you actually came to Songshan Village in such bad weather?" The patriarch of Songshan Village was a little stunned.

"My father misses my old friend very much, and specially ordered Xiaosheng to come as soon as possible. Although the weather is bad, I can bear it." Wang Lin said indifferently.

"You are late, Mr. Zhang Zhuqian has passed away." The patriarch frowned when he heard that.

"I know this. I have already found out about it in Changlin County. I just don't know where my father-in-law is buried. Even if I can't meet him, I should burn incense. Now that my father-in-law is gone, I should also receive my fiancée's return money." Washington." Wang Lin said.

"Grandpa, my young lady is here, please hurry up and take my young lady away!" Yun Niang said with joy.

"You scholar came a step too late. Miss Han Yu cannot marry you, and you cannot take her away." The patriarch said in a cold voice.

"Old man, I'm joking. I have the engagement documents. According to the laws of the Great Xia Kingdom, no one can stop me from picking up my fiancée." Wang Lin said unhurriedly.

"Miss Han Yu was taken by the Dragon God who protects my Songshan Village, and she will be sent to Qinglong Gorge where the Dragon God lives tonight. If there is any violation, our village will bear the wrath of the Dragon God. Therefore, you cannot bring Let her go." The patriarch of Songshan Village said.

"Dare to ask, old man, who are you?" Wang Lin asked with a cold face.

"This old man is the head of the Zhang family, the person in charge of Songshan Village." The old man said proudly.

"Since you are the head of this family and the person in charge of Songshan Village, I think you can read and understand the laws of the Great Xia Kingdom. According to the laws of the Great Xia Kingdom, those who deceive the people with ghosts and gods will be exiled for three thousand miles. All property will be fined and confiscated. I advise you to rein in the precipice and don't let me report you to the county government." Wang Lin said loudly.

"You scholar, where do you think this is? The order of the Dragon God cannot be violated. If you persist in your obsession, we will also send you to the Dragon God." The patriarch said with a cold face.

"Since Mr. Zhang Zhuqian is gone, I am the head of this family. If you want to bully my family with ghosts and gods, then you don't even think about it. If you don't leave and mess around here again, trying to entrap us, don't blame me for being rude." Wang Lin spoke righteously. road.

The patriarch's eyes turned cold, and he took a few steps back. The strong men behind him surrounded him one by one with unfriendly expressions, as if they were about to make a move.

"Stop!" At this time, Zhang Hanyu came out to look at Wang Lin and said, "Yunniang, send the letter to Mr. Wang, and this engagement is over. You can leave Songshan Village now, and you don't need to take care of the affairs here."

"Miss!" Yunniang exclaimed.

"Give it to the young master!" Zhang Hanyu said firmly.

"Miss, you, just suffer yourself." Yun Niang burst into tears.Of course she knew what her young lady was thinking. She was afraid that Wang Lin would die in Songshan Village. After all, such a remote mountain village has a huge clan power, and few people from the county government came here. Even if Wang Lin was killed, no one would know. .
