Chapter 247: The Vanishing Beggar
If the rebels only appear in one city and one place, it can only mean that the local officials have problems, if this kind of rebels is nationwide, then the chaos in the world will not be far away, this is the conclusion that Liu Xing has come to after watching TV dramas for many years.
"Big brother, I heard Master say that soldiers protect the people, why do you say it and look so vicious."
"What your master said is right, these soldiers were all going to defend their families and the country when they were recruited, but as time went by, they slowly turned sour, and began to become a sharp weapon for some people to seek power and wealth, and high rewards made these soldiers crazy, and at the same time began to ignore civilians, otherwise there would not have been the scene just now."
"That's the case, thank you big brother for your advice."
"It's nothing, you just walked out of the school, these things, as long as you have been in contact with them for a while, you will definitely understand them all."
"Big brother, you have traveled from south to north and have seen a lot, is it only our soldiers here who have such a style?"
"The world is as black as a crow."
I'll go, it's the rhythm of chaos in the world.
Next, the two talked happily with each other, and Yangzhou City arrived in a blink of an eye.
"Boss, this little brother, Yangzhou City has arrived."
"Liu Xing, the eldest brother's goods this time will not go to Yangzhou, I can't send you anymore, you are careful in the city alone, if there is something, you can go to Wuxi Fugui Commercial Bank to find me."
"Okay, when I have time, I will definitely go to Wuxi to visit my eldest brother."
Walking all the way, Liu Xing had a good impression of this round-faced businessman, and after hearing that he was also surnamed Liu, the businessman recognized Liu Xing's little brother without thinking about it, so he had the scene of resignation.
After paying the entrance fee of ten cents, Liu Xing entered this ancient city with a long history. After entering the city, Liu Xing first found an inn to live in, found a window seat on the second floor, and had lunch.
"Why don't there be any beggars in this Yangzhou City?"
Liu Xing finished eating a meal and didn't see a single beggar begging, which was obviously very strange.
"Little Er, don't you have beggars in Yangzhou City?"
"Beggar, this guest officer, what are you looking for a beggar?"
Xiao Er's eyes flickered a little, obviously the other party remembered something, Liu Xing knew as soon as he saw the other party's expression, something happened, in order not to set himself on fire, Liu Xing hurriedly said: "A few years ago, I followed my father to do business here, and my family was poor at that time, and I was despised by beggars, so, you know." ”
After Liu Xing finished speaking, he took out a silver ingot from his purse and threw it on the table.
Xiao Er listened to Liu Xing's explanation, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the silver ingots on the table, this is ten taels of silver, which is more than his annual income, and he has never seen such a heroic guest for so many years.
After thinking about it, Xiao Er still didn't resist the temptation of money, he quickly took the ingots into his arms, and then explained in a low voice: "Guest officer, I can understand your thoughts, but these beggars should have suffered enough punishment, and you don't need to be angry at all." ”
"What, what do you mean by that? Can you make it clear? ”
"Guest, don't you understand what I'm saying? Most of the beggars who have sinned against you have already received retribution. ”
When Liu Xing heard this, he knew that there was a story in it, and this little second must know something, and at the same time he had concerns. In order to dispel Xiao Er's concerns, Liu Xing took out a silver ingot from his purse and threw it on the table.
"Say, what's going on? Lao Tzu's revenge has not been avenged! ”
"Okay, since the guest officer wants to know, the small one will be out of the way, three months ago, the city defense battalion suddenly began to arrest beggars, as for the reason I don't know, but before I went to Nanshan to help the boss deliver things, I once strayed into a valley, in a hidden corner can see the valley full of soldiers, they are torturing those beggars, in the downwind of the valley, there are hundreds of beggar corpses."
"Won't it, the city defense battalion is full of food, and go to the beggars for trouble?"
"Guest officer, I am not lying, although I also do not understand what is attractive about those dirty and smelly beggars."
"Well, even if what you say is true, tell me everything you know, I want to know how miserable the bastards were before they died."
Xiao Er glanced at Liu Xing speechlessly, but he didn't make any comments, he was the owner of the money, he gave the money, and if he wanted to know, he just said it himself.
Next, Xiao Er used strong description skills to describe the miserable scene vividly, through his description, there should be hundreds of soldiers in the valley, the Quanzhen Sect was surrounded, and the beggar gang was killed on a large scale, what is going on with this qiē, maybe he should go to the beggar gang to understand the situation first.
"Okay, you sue me about that place, you stinky beggars, hmph, I'm going to watch you die."
After speaking, it was another silver ingot, Xiao Er put the ingots away without thinking about it, everything has been said, where would he care about an address, with thirty taels, plus his savings of twenty-six taels, he can go to a small city to open a storefront, and no longer have to be enslaved by the boss.
After finishing the meal, Liu Xing went to the valley where the beggars were imprisoned, and Xiao Er went back to his hometown directly.
Nanshan is not far away, Liu Xing followed the guidance, and soon arrived at a densely wooded valley, at this moment the valley was quiet, he moved his steps carefully, and arrived at the location of Xiao Er's office, sure enough, in this direction, he could see clearly in the valley.
At this moment, a man wrapped in black walked into the valley, and a group of soldiers with guns suddenly appeared in the silent mountain forest.
After the man in black turned around the valley twice, he walked out of the valley directly, the other party seemed to be inspecting the situation here, seeing this person in black, Liu Xing had an idea, he might be able to sneak attack him, as long as he wore that faceless clothes, he would definitely be able to enter the valley easily.
With an idea, Liu Xing used light skills and quickly approached the man in black, but the man in black didn't notice Liu Xing, just walked slowly in the mountains and forests.
Seeing that the man in black was about to walk out of the mountains and forests, Liu Xing saw that if he didn't make a move, he would miss the opportunity, so he hurriedly planned to make a move, and at this time, several figures flashed in the mountains and forests.
"Xia Lan, how is it in the valley?"
"It's okay, but there are ordinary disciples who have died, so it's not a way for us to wait like this!"
"I know, but there are just a few of us, we are alone, let alone dealing with that old monster, even if it is hundreds of officers and soldiers of the city defense battalion, we can't deal with it."
"Hey, I don't know when Uncle Qiao will be able to come back, if Uncle Qiao is here, how can these people have a chance to be arrogant."
"Yes, Uncle Qiao can destroy that monster with one palm."
"Okay, be realistic, Uncle Qiao went to the Western Regions, how could he rush back, let's think of another way."
