Chapter 45: Misfortune Can't Be Escaped
Because there were three days to open the warehouse and give food relief, Yang Mingde decided that his family would go to collect food on the third day, and give the previous time to the poor people who needed food the most. So in the past two days, Yang Xianmao has been practicing medicine by ringing the bell and continuing to walk the streets and alleys, but he obviously feels that there are a lot fewer pedestrians on the street, but there is a long queue of people at the entrance of the yamen.
From this, he felt that there were really more poor people who could afford this little bit of rice than he imagined.
On the third day, the family came to the Yamen to receive food.
There were obviously a lot fewer people on this day than the previous two days, and most of the people who were still able to get by at home chose to come on the last day, for them, they didn't care about this food, what they cared about was to register the grain in the yamen to show their submission to the Great Song Dynasty, and after they came out, they gave this grain in their hands to the beggars waiting outside.
Therefore, almost all the beggars in the city gathered at the gate of the yamen for three days to beg. Except, of course, for a dozen beggars in disguise with Lei Dutou and his soldiers.
For several days in a row, they scattered the streets and alleys of the city begging in tattered clothes and carrying a bowl. They did not go to the yamen with other beggars to beg for food, because there were so many people at the yamen that it was impossible for the murderer to commit murder in public, so they just wandered around the streets and alleys of the city, waiting for the murderer to appear. As soon as the murderer appears, these soldiers who are pretending to be beggars and disguised as merchants, pedestrians, etc., will pounce on them to arrest them, and at the same time set off fireworks and call for reinforcements.
And Lei Dutou, who was also dressed as a beggar, although he was also dressed in rags, hid in hidden alleys, and there were more soldiers around him who pretended to be all kinds of soldiers.
These days have been safe and sound, and Lei Dutou is very happy. But I'm worried. As long as the murderer does not appear, he will have to pretend to be a beggar for a day to live this day of hunger and cold. In order to pretend to be a little more like, he had to dress in rags and shiver in the snow. Fortunately, he grew fatter and his muscles were more cold-resistant, so he could barely hold on, but after three days of suffering, he felt that it was becoming more and more difficult for him to persevere, and began to think about how to persuade County Lieutenant Zhong to cancel this ridiculous arrest plan and end his miserable days.
At the moment, he was crouching in a corner of the house. It's far from the streets, it's relatively hidden, and if you don't deliberately look for it, you won't usually notice him, and he has been here for a few days without incident, and he is covered by the wind. He was happy with the position he had chosen.
A soldier was squatting and begging at the corner of the street hundreds of paces away, and a drunken man staggered down the street, apparently drunk. This drunken man was very strong, dressed in a cyan cotton silk suit, and looked like a practitioner, although the cold wind was bitter, he tore open his shirt, revealing a strong muscle, and carried a wine gourd in his hand, and poured wine into his mouth as he walked, and hummed a small tune in his mouth.
Just as he kept walking forward under his feet, and when he threw wine into his mouth with a bang on his neck, he tripped over something under his feet and stumbled forward. Fortunately, he was in good shape, and he rolled on the spot, and he didn't hurt himself, but the wine gourd in his hand fell on the frozen bluestone slab on the street, and it was shattered with a click.
He was so angry that he got up from the ground and turned his head to see that he had tripped over one of the legs of a beggar on the side of the street.
The young beggar had a dirty face, and was dressed in tatters, with one leg curled up and the other straight, and of course he did not mean to trip him, but he was sitting like this, except that he walked past the beggar, and the beggar did not pay attention to him, and he drank without paying attention to the beggar, and he tripped unintentionally.
Despite the fact that the other party was obviously unintentional and a poor beggar, the drunk was still very angry. Because his favorite wine gourd in his hand was smashed. He roared and rushed over, grabbed the beggar and picked him up, and smashed his head and face with a punch and kick.
The soldier pretended to be a beggar who thought that this man was waiting for the murderer, so he desperately hugged one of the drunken man's legs and shouted: "Catch the murderer!
In an instant, the shopkeepers of the surrounding shops, the shopkeepers of the roadside stalls, the idlers walking around lazily, the diners on the snack bar, and more than a dozen people rushed towards them like hungry tigers, carrying iron chains and waist knives in their hands, shouting: "Hugh is going to leave the murderer!"
The drunk man didn't wait to come to his senses, and he had already been punched and kicked by the dozen or so people, and he was about to be chained up. This drunk man is a practitioner in the end, although his martial arts are not high, but he is more than enough to deal with ordinary soldiers, and he is not flustered when he is suddenly attacked, punches and kicks, and fights with these dozen people.
These people are just ordinary soldiers, and martial arts alone are not the opponents of this drunk man at all, but fortunately, there are more than a dozen people, and they have been seriously injured by the death order for the murderer to be bravely arrested, and those who retreat from the battle are engaged in military law, so they rush forward with their lives. The leader took out a firework and shot it into the sky, and a firework exploded in the sky, and the soldiers in ambush immediately rushed towards this direction with a mad scream.
It's just that these people are all in civilian clothes, so the strong man didn't know that he was a soldier of the Yamen, and thought that he was in a group with the beggars. The soldiers gathered around him on all sides, surrounded him in the middle, and after a dozen of them had been knocked down, the big man was finally pressed to the ground and bound with iron chains.
Lei Dutou hid in the streets and did not go over to take part in the attack, because there were so many soldiers and there was not a shortage of him. He just poked his head out and looked. But in the twilight, he could only see that the soldiers he arranged at the entrance of the alley rushed forward like crazy, and he was still not sure whether it was the murderer he wanted to arrest, so he was not in a hurry to appear, thinking that he would not show up until he had caught someone and asked him to make it clear that it was indeed the murderer to be arrested. So, he curled up in the corner as much as he could, just looking around.
Suddenly, he felt a sound behind him, and subconsciously turned around, but before he could see the movement behind him clearly, he had already been slapped heavily on his neck, and his eyes suddenly turned black and fell softly in the snow.
……………………
This morning, Yang Xianmao got up early, and before dawn, he came out of the back alley, ran to Xiaosonggang, not far away, and began to practice the five bird operas recorded in Hua Tuo's "Green Capsule Sutra" on a meadow in the woods.
After cultivating the Five Birds Opera, I obviously felt refreshed and full of strength, and my strength had grown significantly compared to before. This made him taste the sweetness, and he cultivated even harder, twice a day, in the morning and evening, as long as there was no other thing to delay, he would definitely be rain or shine.
