Jiading, Yu Baien, who knew the seriousness of the situation, rushed back to the city overnight, knocked on the county government gate, and told his friend Tang Xiaoxian what he found.

Tang Xiaoxian had known about the "buying bamboo" incident and sent someone to investigate it, but nothing was found, so he didn't take it seriously. However, when Yu Baien told him that the people who bought bamboo had a large number of religious people, and there might be Manchu spies involved, and even local Han gentry participated, Tang Xiaoxian was also very worried. His intuition to lead troops for many years told him that something big happened in Jiading.

"The county must immediately send troops to search the church temple and those big villages, and take all the bamboo buyers into the prison. If it is too late and they are told to move, they will probably be bleeding all over the ground!"

What Yu Baien thought the most about this was that if the spies in Manzhou secretly encouraged the people and the gentry who were dissatisfied with the government, then once these people started, not only would the lives of Jiading be devastated, Songjiang, and even the entire Jiangnan would fall into turmoil. This would be a heavy blow to the Dingwu court, which had just been restored for more than a year. Jiangnan is a place of money and grain in the world. Since ancient times, there has never been a turbulent place for the chaos in the north and the Central Plains. Only by arresting all the participants before the situation worsens can the losses be minimized.

"Take everyone to prison?"

Tang Xiaoxian hesitated and did not argue with Bai En's suggestion. The just-in-committed chaos caused him to be scared. Although the church temple and the wealthy family bought bamboo were suspicious, they sent troops to search for it, which seemed to be a bit of a big deal. If the matter was not what Yu Bai En imagined, then he would stab the hornet's nest again. The evidence must be evidence so that he can take the people, otherwise the consequences may not be something that he, a small magistrate, could withstand.

"It's good that I'll ask the people from Liufang to go to the suspicious village one by one and ask the matter clearly. If they can't tell the reason, it's not too late to lock it up." Tang Xiaoxian felt that this method was quite comprehensive and could avoid getting the wrong person.

Yu Baien also knew the difficulties of this friend. He thought that those priests would not make trouble in a hurry, so he did not insist. At this moment, Tang Xiao first asked someone to find officials from all six houses and ordered them to go to major priests outside the city to investigate, and must ask why those priests bought a lot of bamboo. Originally, they wanted to send a constable to teach the temple, but Bo Ding Ladong volunteered. The people who preached the temple were very disgusted with the people in the government. The teaching temple was also a holy place in the hearts of the teaching people. If the constable entered the temple, they would be afraid that there would be something wrong. It would be better for him to go there in person, so that the teaching temple would not be too resistant.

Tang Xiao thought about it first, agreed to Ding Zhubo's request, and told him to be more careful. If there is anything wrong, come back to report the news immediately, and then the government will dispatch troops to deal with it. Ding Zhubo responded and took only two officials to Baihe Temple, the teaching temple outside the city.

Unexpectedly, after entering Baihe Temple, Lord Ding Bo will express his intentions in the future, and the people in the temple changed their faces and claimed that they would never buy bamboo in the temple. Lord Ding Bo was responsible for his duties, and he saw it with his own eyes. He didn't check it in the temple, so he couldn't communicate with the county magistrate when he went back, so he insisted on checking it in the temple. But the people in the temple were so obstructed, but Master Ding Bo was not allowed to check it out. During the stalemate, the two officials who came together found that dozens of people suddenly rushed into the temple, and the person in charge was Lord Ding Bo's childhood friend Ma Dalong.

"Dalong, you are here just in time. Someone saw a large amount of bamboo poles bought in the temple. The magistrate asked me to come and ask the temple why the temple bought a large amount of bamboo."

The arrival of his childhood friend made Master Ding sigh of relief. He knew that Ma Dalong had the position of a scholar in the teaching temple and had a very high status among the teaching people. If he came forward to discuss with the teaching temple, the teaching temple would most likely let him observe it. In this way, he could not only complete his errands, but also restore the teaching temple's innocence and beautify both worlds.

The county magistrate friend Ding Juren said that he was invasive, but Ding Zhubo never believed that the church and the church organized the church to rebel. In the Ming Dynasty, the church and the church in Jiangnan had never done anything rebelled. Songjiang had only more than 50,000 people, and the elderly, weak, sick, disabled, women, children, and young and strong. What can they do if they want to rebel? And why do they want to rebel? The government has compensated the master for being shackled to death, so what is there to be dissatisfied with the temple? Besides, the church and the temple are not Chinese. Could it be that the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church and the church are not allowed to be rebelled, so the church and the church and the church will not believe that the church and the church will be beaten to death.

The Lord Ding invited Tangxian Zun to teach the temple, and the fundamental purpose was to prove the innocence of teaching the temple and teaching the people. Indeed, a few days ago, the people gathered to smash the temple and the people and besieged the county government, but that was a reason. From beginning to end, whether it was teaching the temple or teaching the people, they had never acted in half a rebellion. It was entirely for the master to seek justice. As for the Han people who were accidentally injured, they were just fish that suffered. If they took a step back, they would not have killed people after all.

I thought my friend Ma Dalong would agree readily and discuss with the temple for me. But I didn't expect Ma Dalong to come close. After looking at Master Ding, he raised his eyebrows and took out a sharp knife from his arms and stabbed it into Master Ding's chest without saying a word.

"Dalong, you! What are you doing?"

Poor Master Ding didn't believe that his childhood friends would kill him until the moment he fell down. The two officials who came together were so scared that they were out of their minds when they rushed out. A few more religious people came forward to hold them down, and then you punched and I kicked them to death in the temple.

The sutra masters of the temple looked at the atrocities in front of him, and they were all very idly and no one came up to dissuade him.

"Chop the bodies of these three people into eight pieces and throw them into the river beach to feed the fish!"

While wiping the blood-stained sharp knife, Ma Dalong ordered people to drag the bodies of Ding Zhubo and the other two down. The ground was covered with blood, and the long blood stretched out outside the temple.

After hearing the news, more and more religious people came, and the temple was surrounded by people. Ma Dalong brought a chair, stood on it, and shouted to the religious people: "The Han people want to kill all our religious people. In order to protect their children, we must do it immediately, otherwise everyone will be killed by the Han people!"

Only a very small number of people who came to know about Ma Dalong's secret cooperation with the Manzhou people. The rest of the country did not know about this, so they suddenly heard that the Han people were going to kill all the people. Some believed it, while others did not believe it, because they had never heard of this before.

The unbelievers turned their attention to the prestigious scholars. However, to their surprise, the scholars all agreed with Ma Dalong's statement and said that the officials wanted to kill all the scholars and the people were very clear.

"The thief general of the Taiping Army said that he would kill all the Han people. We are not Han people. In their eyes, they are Tartar barbarians. Even if we have lived in China for hundreds of years, they will not regard us as Chinese!"

The support of the scholars made Ma Dalong full of confidence. He shouted: "The Taiping Army does not regard our teaching people as human beings. Do you know that in Guangxi two years ago, the Taiping Army killed many of our teaching people. Our great teacher Ma Sibaba asked the Taiping Army to drown in Liujiang. The teaching people in Guangxi asked them to demolish the teaching temples. We taught them to bury them alive because they refused to apply a mouthful of lard on their mouths!"

I don’t know where Ma Dalong heard about the Taiping Army’s murder of the religious people. He said it one by one, causing the doubtful religious people to lose their minds and anger to occupy their brains. Especially when he knew that Ma Sibaba, the great scripture master who was most admired by the people in the world, was also called the Taiping Army, the religious people were left with the anger of revenge.

"In the past, it was Guangxi, now it was Jiangnan, and in the future it was northwest. Wherever the Taiping Army went, there was no way for the people to live! It would be better to fight for them than to ask them to kill!"

Ma Dalong successfully aroused hatred from all the religious people. With the help of the Buddhist scriptures, all the religious people quickly reached an agreement, that is, they must immediately take revenge on the Han people.

"The Qing Dynasty promised that our country's religion will be in a position of religion. After the success of the work, a large army will go south. At that time, all the seized fields and money that have been stolen can be returned."

Finally, Ma Dalong gave up the conditions that the people of Manzhou allowed. When they heard that the Qing army helped them, the priests also had some confidence in rebelling. Soon, bundles of sharpened bamboo poles were carried out, and the priests rushed forward to collect bamboo guns. Another bundle of swords was carried out. These ordinary priests and thin ones could not be obtained, but were led by the priests who had status in the priest temple and priests.

After distributing the weapons, Ma Dalong wanted to lead the disciples to retaliate immediately, because the government had discovered that they had bought bamboo, and Master Ding was reluctant to return, and the county would definitely suspect that. If you don’t need to enter too much, maybe some officers and soldiers would come over. Now, you have to take action before the government has taken action!

Just as all the church people received weapons and were waiting for orders, a scene that surprised them happened.

Ma Dalong called his wife. Ma Dalong thought that her husband would tell him to take good care of his children, but he didn't expect that Ma Dalong suddenly stepped forward and strangled his wife, strangled her hard, and strangled his wife to death in front of the people of the church.

The church members were shocked by this scene and did not understand why Ma Dalong wanted to kill his wife. The church members did not understand, and Ma Dalong's eleven-year-old son and nine-year-old daughter did not understand. The two looked blankly at their mother who was lying in their father's arms, so scared that they could not say a word.

"Come here!"

After throwing his wife's body to the ground, Ma Dalong turned his face and stared at his children. The children walked forward tremblingly, but Ma Dalong stepped forward with a quick step forward, stabbed his son in the heart and cut it between his daughter's neck. Poor these children, they couldn't even scream, and were killed by their biological father.

When Ma Dalong turned around again, his eyes made everyone afraid of him. The religious people all burst into cold air from the bottom of their hearts. They were really afraid of Ma Dalong, and they hated and feared him.

"To protect your child, there is no way out, and I won't look back!"
