121 I rob the money when the bandits send money
As soon as Master Tang left, Master Dai got up from the bed.
The information brought by Peng Hongzhong shows that there has been a lot of movement in the Huangfu and the county government recently. A fast horse ran out of the county office, and immediately sat a one-eyed dragon.
The one-eyed dragon left the city and went straight to the west, never returning to the county office. Huang Shilang was purchasing supplies, and it seemed that he was preparing to see off the county magistrate's wife. It's business as usual on Sister Hua's side.
Zhou Xing thought about it for a while, and instructed the subordinates of Dai's Mansion to continue to stare at the movement of Yanyang Tower. As soon as the county magistrate's people get there, be sure to inform themselves as soon as possible.
After Peng Hongzhong wrote it down, he went to do it immediately. "Childe, what do you think?"
Obviously, Huang Shilang did not know that the county magistrate was going to take the opportunity of the funeral to kidnap the gentry. The one-eyed dragon is the second brother of the county magistrate, and he goes west, do you know what is in the west?"
"Old decay and dullness, please make it clear!" asked Master Dai puzzled.
"Bandits! There are bandits in the west! Bandits are entrenched in the west mountain of Goose City!" Zhou Xing nodded to Master Dai.
"Childe, you mean that the county magistrate's people colluded with the bandits?"
Zhou Xing smiled slightly, noncommittal. The county magistrate colluded with the bandits? He himself was Zhang Mazi, the leader of the bandits!
Master Dai couldn't understand Zhou Xing's honey smile. But he knew that if he expected it to be true, it would be a big deal. The dignified magistrate of Goose City actually colluded with the bandits. It's a mess!
Huangfu. "Master, there have been a few strange things in Goose City recently!" Hu Bai chatted while helping Huang Shilang with a pedicure.
"What's the strange thing?" Huang Shilang asked nonchalantly, with a mask on his face.
"The heads of the two major families in the south of the city contracted tuberculosis at the same time and could not attend the funeral of the county magistrate's wife. Several of Ma Bond's entourage have not been seen playing in the streets for two days. Also, Zhang's mother is gone!"
Huang Shilang stood up suddenly, "Mother Zhang, which Mother Zhang?"
"It's Sister Hua's..."Hu Bai didn't need to say any more, Huang Shilang already knew which Zhang's mother it was. "How long has it been? You haven't sent anyone to keep an eye on it?"
"Sister Hua has always been obedient, and the people who are staring at her are also a little slack. When I went to see it today, Zhang's mother was gone. Hu Bai saw that the old man was angry and replied cautiously.
"Rice bucket! Not a good old mother can see it. Invite Sister Hua!"
"Yes, sir!"
"Wait, I'll go myself!"
...
"Master Huang is auspicious!" Sister Hua opened the door and saw that it was Huang Shilang and a group of entourage, and couldn't help but respectfully say a blessing.
Huang Shilang didn't speak, and directly broke into Sister Hua's house to check around. There was no figure of Zhang's mother in the house, but she was cleaned up by the owner.
"With the arrival of County Magistrate Ma, the weather in Goose City is new, and your house is also completely new!" Huang Shilang obviously had something to say. Sister Hua had seven exquisite thoughts, and immediately understood the warning meaning in Huang Shilang's words.
"No matter how new the weather is, it's just a flowing man! isn't the sky in this goose city always surnamed Huang?" Sister Hua replied with a smile.
Huang Shilang stared at Sister Hua's face for a few seconds, and suddenly laughed out loud, "Haha, you are a smart person, there are some things I don't need to say!"
He turned around and left. "Master, didn't Sister Hua do it?" Back at the Huang Mansion, Hu Bai asked the doubts in his heart.
"It's hard to say now, Sister Hua is the most suspicious. You go and check who she has been in contact with recently, especially to find out if she has hooked up with someone from the county magistrate. ”
"Yes, sir!"
"Wait, let the people of the two major families lurking in the south of the city keep an eye on it, and see if there is anything abnormal about them recently!" "Yes, master!"
The funeral of the county magistrate's wife was held as scheduled a day later. This is a great event in Goose City. Officials at all levels of the county government and the landlords and gentry of all sizes in Goose City all received invitations.
They were all proud to be able to attend this funeral. After all, being able to show your face on such an occasion is also a symbol of identity and status. Only the two major families in the south of the city were a little ignorant of current affairs, and only sent a concubine to attend.
When the landlords heard that the two heads of the family were seriously ill and huddled at home, they all laughed at them for being fools. If you were yourself, even if you were buried in the loess, you would have to struggle to crawl out of the pit.
How much honor it must be to be able to show his face in front of Master Huang, the first family of Goose City, and the highest magistrate and county magistrate of Goose City?
Who knows, halfway through the funeral, a group of bandits fell from the sky. They viciously abducted Huang Shilang, the sons of the two major families in the south of the city, and a gentry, and demanded that they take money to ransom people within three days.
And the owner of the funeral, the county magistrate of Ma Bangdema, had nothing to do except be beaten by the bandits. The bandits also appointed him to raise money to ransom the three masters.
"What's even more bizarre!" Peng Hongzhong spat and reported the strange news at the funeral scene. "The bandits kidnapped a Huang master, and another Huang master appeared. He even said that he would not pay a penny to ransom people. Sir, son, do you say it's unusual?"
"Did Huang Shilang catch the bandits?" asked Mr. Dai anxiously. He sent his concubine to attend the funeral, but he didn't expect Zhou Xing's prophecy to come true.
"I didn't catch a single hair, and the bandits were all strong in martial arts, so they immediately put the three masters in their bags and transported them away with a sliding rope. It wasn't until the bandits disappeared that Master Huang's people were late. ”
After Peng Hongzhong exited the room, the two brothers Dai bowed deeply to Zhou Xing. "Thank you Gongzi for saving the life of the old brother, from today on, it doesn't matter if Gongzi has any requirements, even if it is all of Hou's property, if Gongzi speaks, Hou will definitely offer it with both hands. ”
Zhou Xing saw that their expressions were sincere, not fake, and smiled slightly, "I was entrusted by your father to bring down Huang Shilang for you, and now that the big thing has not been accomplished, how can I collect the benefits?"
Seeing that Master Dai was about to open his mouth to persuade him, he raised his hand and interrupted, "I'll talk about this later." Now the situation is very clear, the county magistrate colluded with Zhang Mazi, and Huang Shilang had a stand-in, neither of them was a fuel-efficient lamp. All we have to do is continue to muddy the waters and tear them even harder!"
"Then what about our two boys?" asked Master Dai respectfully. Although he is a concubine, after all, he is also flesh and blood, so he can't ignore it.
"Of course, it's to ransom people, if you don't pay for it, how can the bandits send money?" Zhou Xing said incomprehensibly.
He still hasn't said a word, if the bandits don't pay money, how can the second and third children hook up with Sister Hua? If they don't hook up with Sister Hua, how can Zhou Xing get the diamond?
And if the bandit didn't give money, how could he grab the money?
The two masters glanced at each other, and they were in a fog with each other. This week, Gongzi was covered with clouds and mountains every time, but it turned out that he was like a god and extremely wise.
Each of the two major families in the south of the city gave 100,000 taels of silver to redeem their sons. The bandits are quite trustworthy and release people when they see money. As soon as the sons of the two major families in the south of the city regained their freedom, they were ordered by their Lao Tzu to kneel in front of Zhou Xing.
The two princes kowtowed to Zhou Xing a few times and thanked him for saving his life. Zhou Xingshi Shi Ran took it.
If it weren't for him this time, the two masters would have been kidnapped by the bandits. At that time, there was no one million taels of silver, so don't think about getting out safely. At this moment, Zhou Xing saved hundreds of thousands of taels of silver for them, and also saved them from the pain of flesh and skin.
Even if they let the two masters kowtow a few times, it's nothing.
"Tonight, give me thirty gunmen, an unmarked sealed carriage, I'll be useful!" Zhou Xing commanded briefly.
Master Dai is now only looking forward to Zhou Xing, he knows that Zhou Xing is going to make a move, and he is quite excited, and everything is arranged in person.
In less than a quarter of an hour, thirty sturdy men, armed with long guns and short cannons, stood in front of Zhou Xing. Zhou Xing took out thirty bandit masks that had been prepared a long time ago and brought them one by one.
"You are a bandit tonight, I am Zhang Mazi, you will do whatever I ask you to do, do you hear clearly?"
"Hear me!" shouted the thirty men. The roar shook the heavens and the earth, and Zhou Xing nodded with satisfaction.
Zhang Mazi gave money to the poor, and Lao Tzu robbed his mother. What Huang Shilang did, Zhou Xing did, and he was one step ahead of him!
That night, Zhou Xing and the thirty men slept in the lobby of Dai's mansion, so that Zhou Xing could go out as soon as he gave the order.
At two o'clock in the morning, news came from Peng Hongzhong. A squad of bandits went door-to-door in the city to distribute money. Zhou Xing was shocked when he heard the news, he took out a bottle of Red Bull brought from other worlds, and poured it in one gulp in everyone's puzzled eyes. Then hold the gun and close your eyes.
"Let's go!"
After about an hour, Zhou Xing opened his eyes and roared.
