Volume 2 Corpse Transformation Witch Chu Chapter 93 Clue - Living Sacrifice?
When Ouyang returned to Yanlou with a shelf of animal skins, the people of the entire Yanlouyi were stunned.
In ancient times, there were no entertainment activities, but any rare thing with a sesame mung bean size could attract a large number of onlookers.
Chinese like to join in the fun is a traditional virtue since ancient times.
On weekdays, those hunters can hunt one or two timberwolves, which is enough to brag about for three or four days, not to mention the skins of so many beasts, not to mention that there are even black bears inside.
"Who is this in charge, so powerful?"
"I don't know, it's a good face. ”
"This is much stronger than the king hunter family in the north of the city, I don't know how much stronger. ”
"It's a pity that this gorgeous dress is all bloodstains. ”
"It wasn't necessarily a beast he had struck, maybe it happened to run into a pack of wolves fighting each other. ”
"Definitely not, you look at the wolf skins above, they are big and smooth, and they look complete, how can there be such a good animal skin when you hit the fight. ”
Everyone looked at Ouyang who was dragging the animal skin, and whispered for a while, which made Ouyang quite uncomfortable, he didn't like to be stared at by so many people.
But this is fine, it can be regarded as an advertisement, and when selling animal skins for a while, it should be more convenient.
"Stop, where do you want to go after you stole my hide?"
Ouyang walked into the market, suddenly felt the trailer sink, and turned around, a brightly dressed man with a ruffian-looking face stepped on his trailer.
Since there is an existence like the Changchun Clinic, which is willing to sacrifice its own interests and treat the injured for free, then the ruffians who are deceived and abducted are naturally indispensable.
"What do you see, you stole my hide, do you still want to get rid of it?"
As the man spoke, five more men surrounded him, some with long sticks in their hands, some with short knives in their hands, with fierce expressions on their faces.
But this kind of viciousness is more or less pretended, and it is as funny as it is.
"That's all?" Ouyang raised his eyebrows, "Not as many as my animal skins." ”
"What are you talking about, this is obviously my animal skin!" the bright man raised the short knife in his hand, "Don't think that you can kidnap my animal skin by talking nonsense!"
"You may not know, these eight wolf skins belong to the wolf king, I took the wolf king from the wolf pack, those ......"
"Don't give me nonsense! I warn you, boy, no one dares to touch my things in Lou Yi yet!" The bright man didn't intend to give Ouyang a chance to speak, so he beckoned and let his companions surround him.
"Tsk, forget it, since you can't be reasonable, let's be simple and rude......"
Ouyang shook his head helplessly, looked at the approaching ruffian, picked up the tactical stick, and slapped him on the shoulder.
"Click!"
A crisp and loud sound seemed so harsh in the silence of the street.
"Don't worry, my medical skills were learned from Changsangjun, and I promise that I won't kill you. ”
He glanced at the ruffians who had gathered around him, and as soon as he struck out, he hit the nail on the head.
In fact, it is not considered to hit the vital point, if it hits the vital point, it will not kill people. In line with the principle of humanitarianism, Ouyang had no intention of killing them, but breaking his arms and legs, and punishment would definitely be unavoidable.
"Hey, it's useless. ”
Ouyang pursed his lips disdainfully and glanced at the crowd around him, the ferocity that frightened them into taking three steps back.
"Get out of the way, the mayor is here!"
A voice suddenly sounded in the crowd, and immediately after, a gorgeously dressed middle-aged man walked out surrounded by the crowd.
The middle-aged man's face was unusually fat, and his two small eyes were rolling around, which made people feel disgusting when they looked at it.
"I heard about a burglary here. The aristocratic man looked at the scene, frowned, and said, "It seems that it is not only theft, but also wounding!
"Hey, one by one, I'm a little bit of a water reversal today. ”
Ouyang glanced at the guards who were approaching with spears in their hands, and tightened the short spears in his hands, wondering if he didn't want this shelf of animal skins at all.
Forget about the ruffians, the officers and soldiers are not easy to mess with.
But he couldn't bear it.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?" the medical woman Jiang Yu shouted from the crowd as she walked out, followed by a dozen doctors and apprentices, as well as a few strong nursing homes, "I heard that there are injuries here, Chief Yi, let's take a look first!"
"Ivy Spring Medical Lodge?" the fat pig chief frowned.
The prestige of the Changchun Medical Center in Yanlou is extremely high, and its status is special, and if it is not handled well, it is not impossible to provoke a popular uprising.
After organizing an apprentice to treat the ruffian, Jiang Yu suddenly saw the animal skin on Ouyang's trailer, and was startled for a moment at first, and then said to Ouyang with a normal expression:
"Mr. Ouyang, why don't you inform the medical house, we can also ask the apprentice to come and help you. You see, if you come by yourself, there are a lot of vexatious ruffians who are coming to you for trouble, aren't they?"
Good acting skills! Ouyang secretly praised in his heart.
Jiang Yu said, glanced at the ruffian who was screaming on the ground, and then looked at the fat pig chief: "Lord Yi, these animal skins were funded by the national teacher Zhu Ji to our medical house, you see if there is any misunderstanding in this." ”
The fat pig chief frowned, squeezed his little eyes even smaller, and said, "Since it belongs to the medical house, then the medical house will take it back." But there is no escaping the crime of hurting people on the street, although this person is dressed in fine clothes, he is bloody, and he is not a good person at first glance. Such a murderer, let's go to the treatment center with me. ”
"Trouble, why did you provoke this chief?" Jiang Yu glanced at Ouyang, and his tone was a little anxious.
"How do I know. Ouyang rolled his eyes and asked inexplicably, "How many guards are there in Louyi?"
"About three hundred. Jiang Yu looked at Ouyang with a strange expression, "What do you want to do?" ”
"Haven't you caught the prisoner yet?!" Seeing that Ouyang didn't react, the fat pig Yi Chang's temper became a little irritable, and he shouted, "Jiang Yinu had better stay away from the prisoner, don't be injured by mistake." ”
This is already a naked threat.
"Accidental injury? I think who dares to accidentally injure the national teacher Keqing. Behind Ouyang, a familiar voice sounded.
The crowd automatically moved aside, revealing a carriage with simple decoration but an atmospheric appearance, and on the carriage was Fan Li, who had not long been separated from Ouyang.
"Who are you, don't you know that commoners are not allowed to ride when they see nobles?!" Seeing that his prestige had been hit, the fat pig chief became even more irritable, and directly waved his hand to let his Yi Wei press up, as if this way he could regain a little prestige.
"You don't deserve to know who I am, you just need to know that this Mr. Ouyang is the guest of the National Teacher. If you want to arrest someone, you must first go to Shouchun City and ask the National Teacher if he agrees. ”
Fan Li stood on the carriage with a disdainful look, then beckoned to Ouyang and motioned for him to get on the carriage.
He saluted Jiang Yu slightly and said, "These animal skins are troublesome to the medicine girl, and Ouyang and I still have something to say." ”
After speaking, regardless of the fat pig chief and the ruffian present, he directly set up the car and left everyone's sight.
....................................
"Why are you here?" Seeing that there was no one around, Ouyang asked.
"I thought that as a person from outside the sky, you may not have a legal identity in the Chu State, so I came to send you a jade seal. Fan Li said, took out a small jade seal from his arms, and handed it to Ouyang.
Ouyang Yuyin observed it.
The seal is only the size of a thumb, white throughout, carved with patterns that resemble birds, and the bottom is written in Yang-engraved Chu script with the words "Shouchun Mi Shi".
Fan Li explained: "Because of the proximity of the Chu State, there are often southern barbarians entering Chu, so the management of the people under its rule is the most chaotic among the countries, even if you don't know where you come from, it doesn't matter.
But it is precisely because of this that if the people of Chu State do not have aristocratic status, then it can be said that it is difficult to move an inch. You must have felt it just now, just a few animal skins, the governor of the city dares to invade in a grand manner, and even mess around like a ruffian. ”
"So I'm a Chu nobleman now?" asked Ouyang as he looked at the jade seal in his hand.
"Yes, Shouchun Mi, it's not big, it's not small. Take good care of the jade seal, which is a symbol of your status, and can save you nine out of ten troubles. Fan Li looked at the jade seal and said,
"The Xuanniao above is a Suzaku, which is said to be one of the incarnations of the fire god Zhurong. The national teacher Zhu Ji temporarily made it out of white jade, it's not bad, right?"
"It's warm to the touch and pleasant to the touch. Ouyang nodded, put away the jade seal and said, "By the way, I learned a strange thing in the Changchun Medical Lodge, which is related to the national teacher Zhu Ji. ”
"Oh?" Fan Li raised his eyebrows, "Let's hear it." ”
"The national teacher Zhu Ji asked the Changchun Medical Lodge to accommodate more than 100 displaced people from Wu State. ”
Fan Li pondered for a moment: "Hmm...... There doesn't seem to be a problem. ”
"The point of 'sheltering the homeless' is not the point in itself, but the fact that these homeless people all look healthy, but none of the nobles want to accept them. Ouyang said in a somewhat strange tone,
And Zhu Ji just asked these homeless people to survive, and didn't care whether they were fed or not, so they were lazy and idle. It's like ......"
"It's like keeping these homeless people, what's the use...... Living Sacrifice?!" Fan Li said a somewhat terrifying word, startling Ouyang.
"Wouldn't it?, is there really a living sacrifice?!"
"Yes. Living sacrifices have always been very popular among the nobles of the Chu State, but everyone usually finds one or two slaves, casually sets a trumped-up capital crime, and then sacrifices them at the time of execution, and the number of each time is not much, basically at most ten ......"
"But there are more than a hundred people here...... Ouyang reminded, "is he going to take his time in batches?"
"No way. If he wanted to sacrifice slowly, then he could have taken them all as slaves and then slowly sacrificed them. Fan Li overturned Ouyang's point of view, and then said, "I just don't know what he wants so many people to sacrifice for." ”
"Are you there now at the National Teacher Zhuji?
