Seeing that it was impossible to forcefully grab this road, these people immediately gave up. When their knees became weak, they knelt on the ground and began to kowtow and beg for mercy.
"Please, military men, spare your life!"
"We are all ordinary people, please spare our lives because we are so pitiful!"
A group of people in ragged clothes, with sallow faces and skinny muscles, kneeling on the ground with tears and runny noses, begging for help. Is that pitiful? Pitiful.
If someone who didn't know the cause and effect saw this scene, I'm afraid they would think that Lin Mengya and the others were unreasonable and domineering people.
But in reality
When these guys do evil, they can be the worst devils.
I'm afraid no one who saw this scene would have thought of what kind of crimes they had committed in the temple.
This group of people is the most able to adapt to the changing circumstances and the most adept at selling their own pitiful personas, but they are the least worthy of sympathy.
"You can't just ask for help with your mouth, right? We brothers have suffered a lot to protect you. How can we fool you just by touching your upper lip to your lower lip? Then the lives of our brothers are too worthless. ”
Lin Mengya looked at this group of people condescendingly.
Although the other men in the Shenji Camp were angry, they had not yet learned to deal with this group of people.
At best, just ignore them.
But if this group of people really acted rogue, especially if they knelt on the ground crying and begging them, they really didn't know what to do.
Therefore, everyone placed their hope on Lin Mengya.
Hearing what she said, there were people in the crowd who had decent family conditions, and they immediately agreed: "Of course we can't let everyone's work go in vain. I, I am willing to pay ten taels... No, twenty taels." ! Even if it is to repay the kindness of all the military masters for protecting us."
"Twenty taels? Oh, where are you sending the beggars? I don't need to repeat what you did there, right?"
Lin Mengya saw their expressions changing unpredictably, and she felt no guilt at all.
She would never let such a person go so easily.
"One hundred taels." As soon as she finished speaking, someone immediately answered: "One or two hundred is one hundred taels, let's all chip in..."
Once you regain your freedom in the future, you can find a way to get the money back.
Unexpectedly, Lin Mengya raised her voice, "I said, one hundred taels per person."
"What, what?! Even if I sell my whole family, it's not worth a hundred taels of silver!"
"Aren't you trying to make things difficult for others?"
"No, I don't have a tael. They will kill me if they dare. Anyway, I have lived enough."
This one hundred taels of silver exploded instantly.
Lin Mengya had already thought of these people's reactions.
"If you don't have these one hundred taels, then you will have to work hard for us for ten years. When you have enough years, we will naturally send you home."
When some people heard that they would have to work hard for ten years, they collapsed into a ball.
"Then why not kill me..."
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, a long knife flew out of the air and plunged directly into the feet of the man who was about to act violently.
The next moment, the man's eyes were so frightened that his pants were wet.
This, this is really killing people!
Someone took the opportunity to lie on the ground, but Lin Mengya just walked over and kicked the person's leg casually.
The next moment, the man immediately jumped up like flying, holding his legs and jumping "Ouch, Ouch" non-stop. "Look, aren't your legs and feet very neat? If you think ten years is not enough, then we will increase it to twenty years. And we also provide treatment. If there is any problem, you can just tell us. If you can't cure it, we will die. Is it? Anyway, when the time comes, it will be half dead and just throw it up the mountain."
Her understatement made the guys tremble in fear.
This time, they were completely out of ideas.
The roads in front and back were blocked by her, and she had to either pay the money and leave, or work as a coolie for ten years.
In the end, these people all chose to be coolies.
Even the few guys who wanted to rely on their old age and sell themselves off were obedient, lest they be the ones who were left half-dead in the next moment.
After dealing with this group of people, Du Canjun had their hands tied up and transported down the mountain one by one.
Even though they walked in the temple for so long, it was actually not too far from the entrance of the temple.
Fortunately, if they walked straight from here to Zhuangzi, they could save a lot of distance.
Now those guys couldn't catch up with them even if they had wings.
The earthquake in the temple gradually stopped after they all escaped.
Despite this, it still caused some irreversible damage to the interior of the temple.
At least their descendants may never see the glory of the temple again.
Du Canjun wanted to guard the exit, also to cut off the retreat of the group of people inside.
After watching for a whole day, it was night, and Lin Mengya suddenly woke up from her sleep.
Long Tianyu, who had returned to her at some point, happened to hold most of her body in his arms. Seeing her movements, he immediately looked around with alertness.
"What's wrong?" he asked her in a low voice.
Lin Mengya relaxed a lot when she heard the voice of her man, and then pointed to the mark on her waist.
"It's getting hot again."
It's the mark of the beast god stone.
But this time it's different from last time.
Last time there was a burning sensation, like a branding iron imprinted on her skin.
But this time, it was continuously exuding warm temperature.
"They are the ones calling me."
Lin Mengya frowned, covering the piece of flesh around her waist, and whispered.
Long Tianyu pondered for a moment and did not make a sound.
I don’t know what the situation is inside now. If the two of them enter rashly, I’m afraid...
"You're so stupid, why don't you run away quickly? What are you waiting for?"
She gently rubbed the marked area with a hint of worry in her tone.
When she escaped before, she had thought about what to do with the animals inside.
It is said that they are the aborigines in the temple. Even if something unexpected happens inside, they should be able to find shelter.
But now, the warmth slowly emanating from the mark shows that these fools haven't escaped yet.
Long Tianyu pondered for a moment and suddenly suggested: "How about I take someone in to take a look."
"Need not."
Lin Mengya discovered that when she pressed the mark, she seemed to be able to communicate with some of the animals inside.
That feeling is a bit strange, well, a bit similar to the feeling of a voice pager.
The communication between the two parties was not completely instantaneous. She could "feel" the messages being sent to her by the animals inside.
They were asking her if she wanted to give up here and leave. Lin Mengya told them without hesitation to run as far as they could.
After repeating it several times, the warm feeling gradually dissipated.
But Lin Mengya couldn't help but worry.
Do these idiots really "understand" what she means
At this time, in a corner of the temple.
A huge red fox is standing in the middle right now.
Surrounding it were a big rabbit, a deer with huge antlers, and a sheep with huge horns.
The remaining three have trends headed by the fox.
And around them, a group of people several sizes smaller than their bodies were waiting restlessly.
As the aboriginal people here, they were among the first batch to feel the strange movement in the temple.
But they were not ordered to leave.
Just like before, they never received an order to leave from here.
Therefore, even if they were almost exterminated, they chose to continue to stick here.
The big fox was wearing a collar at the moment.
The collar is not too inconspicuous, and it is already rusty, and the key to it can no longer be seen.
Only the pendant below was inlaid with a broken red bead.
At this moment, it seemed like a heroic and fearless king, passing on the orders he had brought.
They are leaving.
To leave with the heir.
As for this order, they have been waiting for no one knows how long and for how many generations.
The big fox has passed on the order he received.
The other three also began to spread with their own tribe.
They will leave with their successors, and then find a new environment to survive and thrive.
Soon after, Du Canjun's men heard urgent footsteps.
They thought the enemy was coming and were waiting for them when they saw a huge figure suddenly running over.
"This is... a fox?!"
The big fox took the brunt of the attack, followed closely by its army of foxes.
The other three are also in an orderly manner, and the most amazing thing is, why are the rabbits, sheep, and deer that come out behind all carrying things on their backs
Lin Mengya: I don’t blame her for this!
It is true that the men in her family are very good at making the best use of everything.
Originally, the animals were ordered to run out, but her man had a sudden idea. It was empty anyway, so why not carry out all the useful things inside
Lin Mengya swore that she just asked these animals to carry out all the broken statues.
Who knew that these guys actually overfulfilled their mission.
I guess even if a mouse entered the current temple, he would have to leave crying.
So clean.
Don't underestimate the power of this "relocation team".
People pluck their feathers when geese pass by, but locusts pass by her!
Long Tianyu glanced at the animal "relocation team" that had disappeared not far away. Very good, these animals are really humane.
Naturally, this group of animals was not running around at will. After discussion, the two decided to place them in the forest for the time being before making other plans.
