Chapter 363 Assassination(1/2)
Li Kan was a meritorious in assisting in catching the robbers. The government rewarded him with twenty taels of silver, and a plaque with four big words "Eliminate violence and safe goodness" written on it.
"I have found 100 taels of this from the robber leader alone. This government is too stingy, right?" Li Kan walked on the road with a plaque and said to the old man with dissatisfaction.
"Haha." The old man just smiled. It would be better not to mix things with this kind of thing.
After the government's appraisal, the old man's house deeds were all real. Li Kan saw this and paid off the fifty taels without saying a word. Now the old man went back with him to pack up his things and was about to leave.
"Old man, I'll stop leaving, just be my housekeeper." Li Kan said to the old man.
"Haha, the young master is joking. How can I give you a housekeeper? You are not an ordinary person at this moment. You must be more capable. "Anyone will be leaving in a while, and the old man is flattering.
Li Kan was very helpful to hear this, but he still said, "To be honest, I don't know anyone when I first arrived. I think you are pretty good. Stay here. If you are not tired from work, your salary will double."
"It's not that the old man can't get along with the money, it's really a haunted place!" The old man saw that Li Kan was quite sincere, so he told the truth.
"What are you afraid of when you are haunted? With me here, the man will run away and the woman will push it down!" Li Kan said indifferently, but after saying that he thought that the yin and yang and mirrors in his belt could not be taken out, so he lacked confidence. It seems that he is going to ask someone to help this time.
But he doesn't know anyone, who are he looking for?
"... The man beats away, the woman pushes him down?" The old man savored it carefully, then smiled and gave a thumbs up and said, "The salary is so romantic, and he is full of courage!"
Even a girl dares to get on, isn’t it just a courage?
"I'm serious. You can stay, old man, so I can't help but recruit people again. I'm worried." Li Kan said.
Seeing that the old man was still unwilling, Li Kan thought for a while and said, "How about you waiting for me for three days, only three days, I will destroy the ghost. Can you stay again?"
"Young Master still knows the art of exorcizing ghosts?" the old man said strangely.
"I don't understand, someone understands it. Don't worry, you can stay in the town for another three days. If it doesn't work after three days, I will never stop you wherever you go. What?" Li Kan said.
Finally, under the temptation of Gao Fuli, the old man agreed. Isn’t it only three days? He has been waiting for the buyer here for a long time, and it’s not bad for these days.
The reason why Li Kan kept him was because he was afraid of trouble. The old man looked good and told him that the house was haunted. If he encountered some irresponsible people, he would definitely use sweet words to coax the house to sell it before talking about it. As for haunting, it was the buyer's business.
Aunt Qin and the others have always lived in poverty. With this old man who has been a housekeeper for many years, they can help them suffer a lot of losses. Li Kan doesn't want to leave anymore. Aunt Qin and the others are deceived when they are not careful and then return to the broken house to live.
So the more Li Kan thought about it, the more he felt that it was necessary for this old man to stay. Otherwise, where would he go to find a housekeeper who is both smart and has a good heart?
Li Kan sent the old man away and carried the plaque to the Lin family's warehouse.
The foreman Lao An was directing the coolie to work when he suddenly felt a luxuriously dressed young man standing in front of him, carrying a plaque on his shoulder.
"Where did you come from? Let me let you go, don't scratch you, I can't afford it!" Lao An politely invited him aside.
"Foreman! It's me, why don't you recognize me if you change the vest?" A familiar voice came, and Lao An saw who was here.
"It's you? Li Dan? Where did you go? Where did you steal this outfit? Go and change it to work!" Lao An said angrily.
"No, I'm not here to work, I'll find someone." Li Kan said with a smile. This foreman is really not polite. He just met him for a day and dared to instruct him.
"Who are you looking for?" Lao An asked. Since Li Kan doesn't want to work, he can't do anything to him. After all, did he sign a contract for sale?
"I'll look for Miss Lin. Or I can find Lin Chang." Li Kan said.
"Miss? Miss, you can't see it as soon as you want. As for Guard Lin, he is behind him and find it yourself." Lao An pointed to the back and said.
After hearing this, Li Kan said thank you and went with the plaque.
When he arrived at the back of the warehouse, Li Kan saw Lin Chang explaining to someone, so he put down the plaque and waited aside.
Lin Chang also saw Li Kan, said a few words to the person in front of him, and walked over.
"Li Dan? Why are you dressing like this? What are you in your hands?" Lin Chang walked over and asked strangely.
"First, my name is Li Kan, and then I helped catch the thief last night. This dress and this plaque were awarded by the government. Finally, I came here to find the person who danced around me that day." Li Kan made it clear in one breath.
"Dance master?" Lin Chang was stunned.
"It's the one who allowed me to talk to you that day." Li Kan said.
"You mean Master Xia, I can't make the decision. He is our guest, and our ladies respect him very much." Lin Chang said embarrassedly.
"Then you take me to see Miss Lin, and I'll tell her." Li Kan said.
"Oh, it's a coincidence that our lady and Master Xia went to see the show and were not at the mansion." Lin Chang said.
"Who is still performing in this winter? Is it cold? Tell me the address and I will go to find them myself." Li Kan said.
Lin Chang told him the address. After he left, Lin Chang said to himself: "I always feel that this person is so free? I won't be polite to anyone."
That's right, everyone is equal in Li Kan's world, and there are not so many class concepts, so he speaks casually.
Besides, Miss Lin was watching the show with Master Xia at the troupe. Although it was cold now, it was a sunny day today, and the sun was shining brightly, so the stage was set up in the open air.
In this era when there is no entertainment, watching opera has become a common hobby for the public. So as soon as the stage is opened, the audience is filled with people. Miss Lin naturally got a elegant seat, the closest distance from the stage, and she could see the every frown and smile of the characters on the stage and every move.
At this time, a big show was staged. The handsome martial artist with a majestic spear made him superbly, and loud cheers sounded from the audience.
Miss Lin was getting close to her, and she realized that this martial artist seemed to be different from before, and even the props were made very realistic.
Watching this performance again, it was really amazing. The gun head seemed to be aimed at me.
Wait! The martial artist has already taken off his spear, isn't he just coming for himself?
Miss Lin saw it, but she couldn't dodge it and could only watch the gun head get closer and closer.
"Swoosh~" Seeing that Miss Lin was about to die, a plaque flew out from the side, and flew past Miss Lin and ran away the spear. The front of the plaque was facing Miss Lin. She saw clearly the four big words "Eliminate violence and good luck" on it!
Then I heard someone shouting: "Kill her and avenge the boss!"
I saw the martial artists on the platform taking out their bright big swords and rushing towards Miss Lin with great momentum.
The audience realized it and immediately fled around and was in a mess.
However, Master Xia sat quietly aside, like nothing happened.
In fact, if you look closely, you can see that this guy's legs are shaking. He is really smiling on his face and in his heart!
There were still people shouting from afar: "Kill me! Call the police quickly... No, report to the officials!"
However, at this time the evil men had already killed them.
Seeing this, Li Kan suddenly jumped up, jumped to the sky, and kicked at the people: "Stay under the knife! I'll hit~"
A gangster closest to Miss Lin was kicked to the ground by Li Kanfei, and his whole head was kicked into the snow, and his body was twitching and seeing the rays of life and death.
"Oh, my subordinates are heavy." Li Kan realized that although he was weak, it was not something that these ordinary people could bear.
Only then did Miss Lin see that the person who saved her was a gorgeously dressed young man, who looked a little ordinary, and she looked very familiar with this person.
"Li Dan?" Miss Lin said uncertainly.
"It's Li Kan!" Li Kan patted a murderer who came up and corrected the situation.
There were only a few people, not enough for Li Kan to clean up with one hand, and they were soon beaten down.
"Miss Lin, is it okay?" Li Kan said with a smile.
"It's okay, thank you for helping me." Miss Lin bowed slowly and expressed her gratitude.
Master Xia also bowed his hand aside and secretly wiped the sweat from his head, thinking that today was so dangerous.
"Who are you? How dare you assassinate me?" After Miss Lin thanked her, she said coldly to the people who were lying on the ground.
"Hmph! It's all your fault for raising a master. No, if you say it wrong, it should be the novice you raised!" A gangster looked at Li Kan and said sarcastically. It was obvious that the novice face in his mouth was him.
"You evil man, you are full of dirty words and should be beaten!" Miss Lin was so angry that her face turned red, she poked out her little feet and kicked him hard.
It was Li Kan who touched his face with an unexpected look on his face and asked, "What did you say just now? Do you think I have the potential to be a novice? I am that handsome?"
The evil ones: "..."
Miss Lin was not satisfied after kicking her a few times, and she walked aside to find the right guy.
Suddenly, Li Kan heard the sound of the rope breaking, and then he heard Master Xia shouting: "Miss, be careful!"
Li Kan looked up and saw a huge wooden pillar on one side of the stage falling down. If it was hit, its head would be blooming.
Isn’t it just a wooden pillar? Li Kan calmly walked to Miss Lin and stretched out a hand to catch the pillar.
"I can't pick it up!" Someone from the government arrived in the distance. Seeing Li Kan wanting to pick up the pillar, he couldn't help but shouted in a hurry.
However, it was too late. As soon as Zhuzi bought it, Li Kan's face changed, and his feet fell deeply into the ground. He even heard the sound of the lotus root being folded, and Li Kan instantly shortened.
Seeing Miss Lin standing foolishly in front of him, Li Kan tilted his body and made the pillar fall to the ground.
"Boom~" the earth trembled a little.
At this time, the soldiers rushed over and looked at Li Kan in surprise and said, "Are you okay?"
"What's so heavy?" Li Kan said, rubbing his arms. Under his clothes, there were cracks on the lotus root arm, but he was not afraid. The injury was not serious and he could repair it by himself.
"This pillar has been here for a long time, extremely heavy. I didn't expect you to catch it." The soldier said enviously.
"You're still holding it up here?" Li Kan said.
"There are usually no one here, but I didn't expect that the troupe will come here to set up a stage today." The soldier said.
"By the way, they are not performers, they are snow thieves!" After checking, they concluded.
It seems that these people are coming to take revenge. Li Kan suddenly wanted to tell what the robber leader said to him before leaving and asked him if he was from the Lin family. As a result, he let out a thrust in his mind, but he didn't expect the revenge to come so quickly.
"Is that robber leader still in prison?" Li Kan asked.
To be continued...
