Chapter 5: The Lord's Destiny
Qi Huan looked at the man who was still honest just now, and suddenly changed his face, and couldn't help but look at him more.
Is there something to rely on?
But who would stand up for him for such a bad thing as taking away his life?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the man take out a sign from his arms, shake it in front of Qi Huan, and said, "See what this is? This is the waist card of the City Lord's Mansion!"
Qi Huan didn't recognize what the waist card of the City Lord's Mansion looked like, and only saw that there was a "yang" word on the waist card.
But there were many onlookers who recognized the waist card, and there was a commotion in the crowd, and after a while, it was quiet again. But everyone looked at the man with resentment in their eyes.
The Yang City Lord is very popular here in Yangzhou County, not only does he govern Yangzhou County very well, but at the same time, he is very strict in his governance, and he will never allow the people of the City Lord's Mansion to bully others. But this person in front of him is under the banner of the city lord's mansion, forcibly asking for the old beggar's things, which has never happened before!
This makes people feel a sense of sadness in their hearts.
Of course, there are also people who think more, thinking that as soon as the city lord gets sick, the people in the city lord's mansion have already begun to do this, if the city lord really ......
Alas, the life of the people of Yangzhou County will definitely not be as good as before!
Before Qi Huan could say anything, he heard the man threaten again: "I'll tell you, if you know each other, quickly pull this old beggar away, this thing is used to save the life of the city lord, if it is delayed, can you afford the consequences?"
The man didn't deliberately keep his voice down, so the crowd of onlookers heard him.
Originally, I heard that the man had indeed taken the old beggar's things, and everyone still despised him very much, and at the same time secretly worried about his future life.
But as soon as they heard him say that it was used to save the life of the city lord, the people immediately changed their opinions.
Someone began to persuade Qi to get up.
"Girl, I think you should leave this matter alone, since it is to save the city lord, no matter how precious that thing is, can it be precious to have the life of the city lord?"
"Yes, the things are not yours, what do you care so much? I said old beggar, the city lord is very kind to us, if the city lord needs something, as long as it is something that we people have, it will definitely be taken out without hesitation, you are good, and you are hypocritical. ”
"I think if this is not the case, let's get together and see how much silver the old beggar's things are worth, let's make up the number for her, and we will treat it as buying that thing to honor the city lord!"
This proposal was approved by everyone, and someone went to ask the old beggar how much was her thing worth?
The old beggar seemed to be confused, and ignored anyone's questioning, but hugged the man's leg tightly and muttered something in her mouth.
Seeing that the old beggar didn't cooperate, everyone didn't care, someone took a porcelain bowl out of the inn, and everyone threw silver into it.
No one asked the old beggar what exactly was taken away, nor did she care about it.
Left and right is just a lowly old beggar, even if she sells her life, it is not worth a few dollars, and her things are definitely not worth a few dollars.
If there really is something valuable on him, and he can live by selling it, who would want to beg on the street to live?
There were a lot of diners in the inn, plus other passers-by, and after a while, there was a small half bowl of broken silver in the porcelain bowl.
The man who proposed to pool the money brought the porcelain bowl to the old beggar, shook it in front of her eyes, and said, "Old beggar, this amount of silver is enough for you to live for a long time, you quickly let go of this lord of the city lord's mansion, don't delay the important matter of saving the city lord!"
The old beggar still held on to the leg of the man who claimed to be the city lord's mansion, and turned a blind eye to the broken silver in the porcelain bowl.
"Hey, old beggar, don't be embarrassed, you may not be able to get this silver, you beg for a lifetime, you may not be able to get it, come two people, quickly pull this old beggar away, don't be dirty, think about what the city lord does to us? If you can save the city lord, what is this dirty?"
As soon as everyone thought that if something really happened to the city lord, the city lord who would succeed in the future of Yangzhou County didn't know what it would be like, and the lives of these people might change dramatically, and someone immediately came out to help pull the old beggar away.
Qi Huan frowned and looked at the man, only to see the man smile smugly at Qi Huan, then raised his leg and kicked the old beggar to the side with one kick.
He originally wanted to pretend to be a good person, but since it has been exposed, he naturally doesn't have to continue to pretend, so he doesn't have to be pestered by the old beggar anymore.
The old beggar herself was weak, and after lying on the cold snow for a long time, her body was numb, and she was kicked vigorously by the man, and fell to the ground at once.
At the moment when he kicked the old beggar away, the man raised his chin at her, and the look of provocation in his eyes was obvious.
Qi Huan saw it in his eyes, and his face suddenly turned cold.
The man spat and was about to leave, but Qi Phantom suddenly blocked in front of the man.
"If you want to leave, you can return the things first!"
The man didn't expect the old beggar to stop pestering, but the little girl was entangled again.
However, he was not afraid at all, as long as he was under the banner of the City Lord's Mansion, it would be convenient for him to do anything.
"I said, you little girl, what are you doing with so much nosy, why don't you get out of the way!"
The man reached out to push Qi Huan, but Qi Huan grabbed his hand and pushed it back gently, the man took a few steps back, and finally slipped under his feet, and fell next to the old beggar with a "pop".
The old beggar seemed stunned for a moment, but soon regained her senses, and with a scream, and out of nowhere, she rolled over and rode onto the man, stretching out her black nails and scratching at his face.
While scratching, he shouted, "You pay my child! You pay my child!"
The man shouted for help from the onlookers as he put his arm in front of his face.
By the time the old beggar was restrained by several men and pulled her off the man's body, the man's face had already been scratched with blood.
With a gloomy face, the man shook off the hand of the man who was holding him, walked up to the old beggar, and slapped her hard.
Qi Huan hugged the child and watched all this coldly.
The man squinted slightly, looked at Qi Huan, and said in a cold voice: "Little girl, do you dare to report your name?
This is a weak heart and dare not do more entanglement, so do you plan to retaliate later?
Qi Xuan sneered and said, "You don't deserve to know my name!"
The man didn't dwell on it, he just looked at Qi Huan and sneered sadly, and then turned to leave.
Qi Huan didn't stop any longer, she looked at the man's departing figure, and fell into deep thought for a moment.
