Chapter 167: Contradictions in the Mountains and Forests
It is said that the spring breeze caress people and gets drunk, Li Chengfu is riding on a horse, his face is so stinky that he wants to kill, and his little brothers are also reluctant, and no one wants to sacrifice their lives to commit this risk. Tiger's mouth grabs teeth, isn't that the old birthday star hanging!
It stands to reason that it shouldn't be, Liang Chuan, this kid is usually clever and afraid of death, and persimmons will only pick soft pinching, and hard stubble like the big insect on Helu Mountain should not be stupid enough to be reckless. The government has issued a notice again and again, this kid is not illiterate, what kind of medicine did he take to touch the tiger's buttocks?
Pity yourself and a group of brothers, it's not enough to get into Liangchuan, and now I have to collect his body, but who dares to go if I don't go, these women and villagers are scared, things should be decided, and now I don't want to go hard, I have to do it, the official is greedy for life and afraid of death, this reputation is not good.
The two women led the way, and in order to show some sadness, they cried all the way back, and their eyes cried like peaches. Li Chengfu wanted to tell them to stop, but he couldn't say it, everyone was dead in their homes, and they didn't let people howl a word, which was a bit difficult for a strong man.
A group of people walked down the road in Helu Village, and the more Li Chengfu walked, the more he felt that something was wrong. Where is there a dead person in Helu, not only is there no, but they are all happy, as if someone's ancestral grave is smoking, it's really hell, damn.
"Those two mothers-in-law, what the hell are you doing in your village, has this Liang Chuan offended so many people in your village, how many sins he usually makes, and you are so happy when he dies, beating gongs and drums one by one, running to tell each other, alas."
The two village girls have been treated well by Liang Chuan, and looking at the appearance of the people in the village is really not like words, Li Chengfu has a fierce face, they are very scared, and they will not respond to words.
Under the big tree outside the ancestral hall, I faintly saw a lot of people gathered together, blowing suona and beating waist drums. Only then did the two women have the courage to say: "They should be doing the aftermath for Saburo." Otherwise, I won't blow the suona, but where did this suon invite, the tune I blew is not in the right key. ”
The whole village is full of evil, Li Chengfu motioned to his brother to come forward and shout, as if this village Baozheng also lived nearby, called out to answer, and went up the mountain to find the body together, but the younger brother went to the crowd under the tree to see, and immediately returned, with an excited face, shouted at Li Chengfu: "Dutou, there is a big dead tiger under the tree!" ”
"What!" Li Chengfu figured it out at once, no wonder the villagers were so happy, they must have killed the big worm, and every household was so happy. "Take me to see it."
There was a jubilation under the camphor tree, the group of women since they were repelled by Liang Chuan, each went back to their own homes, Liang Chuan's tiger story also spread, every household was very excited, and each family spontaneously organized to bring all kinds of festival celebration utensils, to the camphor tree to blow and blow, fighting the tiger is a great thing.
When the villagers saw that the government was still here, everyone thought they had come to reward them. As a result, when I saw that the faces of several officials were not right, they all had a stinky face, and they didn't look like they were coming to have a lively time. Everyone beat drums in their hearts, and they stopped celebrating one after another, looking at these officials one by one.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way." The officials drove out a road, Li Chengfu turned over and dismounted, ran under the tree to take a look, sure enough, it was a big tiger, with black blood stains on the mouth, nose and ears, and the fur was still shiny, obviously he had just died, and he was happy in his heart at that time: "It's not afraid to go down and collect the body of Liang Chuan, a dead ghost." ”
Liang Chuan was originally in the house, and suddenly couldn't hear the movement outside, if things are abnormal, there must be a demon, immediately jumped out of the house, rushed outside to check, this tiger is full of treasures, he died nine times before he was killed and carried back, who dares to fight the idea of the tiger, with him is not over! Ni Hu, He Baozheng, and Li Chuyi also found out that something was wrong, and rushed out of the house with Liang Chuan.
Liang Chuan saw that it was Li Chengfu, and said happily: "Lao Li, why are you here." Liang Chuan is much more open now, and he directly calls Li Chengfu Lao Li in his mouth.
Li Chengfu heard him call himself like this, it didn't matter, this kid was personally invited into the side room to drink tea by the county magistrate last time, and he only went in a few times after more than ten years, this kid has a bit of ability.
"Brother Liang Chuan, did you kill this tiger?" Li Chengfu didn't care about anything else, killing the tiger was a great achievement.
"Good luck, good luck." Liang Chuan said with a smug face, the old boy has changed his words to be my brother, hehe.
Luck? Li Chengfu thought to himself, no matter how lucky you are, you can kill a tiger, you are a three-year-old child, this is a tiger, not a mouse, as soon as the tiger's claws come down, the whole head will move.
A few of the mountain people followed Liang Chuan out, and when they saw these people dressed as officials, their expressions changed immediately, and they looked at Li Chengfu and them with hatred one by one, as if they were facing a great enemy.
Li Chengfu ran to the tiger's side, his hand gently touched the tiger skin, and his saliva was about to flow down, he was a rough man, but he also knew that this tiger was a good thing. There were only a few scratches on the tiger's skin, and most of the rest was immaculate.
Ancient tigers are a tyrant in the mountains, there is no zoo at all, there is no artificial breeding, all the tigers to catch, either the design of the trap is exquisite, or it is necessary to extraordinary means, only hurt the tiger vital parts, but also can not hurt the tiger skin, so peeled off the tiger skin is priceless, a thousand gold is hard to find.
"Tut-tut, good thing." Li Chengfu's eyes were shining with green light, "Someone! ”
"The little ones are here." A servant answered.
"You ride my horse, go back to the county seat and know the county master, I have been fighting the tiger for half a year, and finally there is a hero who killed the big worm, and he is still an old acquaintance, Liang Chuanlang, a talented man of the Lantern Festival, killed the big worm in He Lu, go back and report it quickly!"
"Yes!" The official replied.
He Baozheng hurriedly took a few steps to catch up with this servant, quietly stuffed some copper coins into his hand, and said, "There is a big brother." ”
Today, a few people escaped death, they are already ecstatic, and now go back to report the good news, and they will definitely parade in red later, accept the attention and welcome of 10,000 people, and spend a little money to make these officials work quickly, so that good things will go a little smoother, He Baozheng has been with Liang Chuan for a long time, and Liang Chuan's way of doing things has slowly learned.
"Zheng Dutou sat in the house first, and a few people watched tea in the official house, today is the big day of our He Lu, Liang Chuanlang fought the tiger with his bare hands, and eliminated the harm for the people, our He Lu Baili mountains and forests will finally be clean and peaceful, which also avenges the dozen or so passers-by who died unjustly, it is really a big piece of people's hearts."
He Baozheng is now slowly beginning to learn these personnel, since he walked in Xinghua, he was deeply impressed, no one in this society will adapt to himself, he has always been to adapt to the mold of society.
A few people went into the ancestral hall to rest for a while, and they looked unhappy. Li Chengfu, an old fritter in officialdom, is the most observant of words and feelings, and he has never seen these mud legs at first glance, and he is doing it as if he killed their whole family.
Li Chengfu sat down, and Yi Niang immediately brought a lot of wine and food from the kitchen. There is nothing delicate about the big fish and big meat, but now under the guidance of Liang Chuan, Brother Zhao is doing a charcoal-grilled fish with dogwood bamboo sticks in one hand, which is quite exquisite, and he will never forget what he has eaten, and his mouth can fall off when he eats it.
Brother Zhao grilled a fish for everyone, Li Chengfu was tired of eating big fish and meat, hey, there is still this way of eating? Li Chengfu held a bamboo stick, looking at the color but not burning, smelling but not mushy, took a bite, the fish was fragrant, the residual temperature of the charcoal fire lingered in the mouth, plus the flavor of dogwood and coarse salt, Li Chengfu didn't care about the hot mouth, one bite after another, he ate happily, Liang Chuan has a lot of tricks.
"I said a few of you, I haven't seen it before" Li Chengfu ate and ate, and a few mountain people really made him uncomfortable, don't keep staring at Lao Tzu like this.
He Baozheng took a look at several people and really stared at Li Chengfu with an unhappy face, and he was very frightened. The life of the mountain people is very hard, a big reason is that they are located in a remote area, and the people in the government often go up to the mountains to fight a few autumn winds, and they will never leave anything that they can take away, which makes the mountain people miserable, so when they see these dog officials, they are all enemies who are very red-eyed when they meet.
"Dutou, this elder is Xiao Baozheng's childhood playmate, and he is Shi Cangren. I haven't seen each other for more than 20 years, and after Saburo killed the big insect on the mountain today, I just happened to meet a few of them, so I invited them to come back and have a lively time. ”
"Shi Cang? Mountain people? Li Chengfu's brows furrowed slightly.
When a few people heard the word mountain people, they were even more hazy, this word in their ears was discrimination, insult, but they also knew that the people did not fight with the officials, and the mountain people could not fight with the officials, their suffering was enough, they couldn't bear a Wu Dutou, and then a Zheng Dutou, then they would all jump off the cliff.
Li Chengfu knew their identities, and he knew all the reasons in a flash of his mind. Xinghua mountain people are Wu Leicai's private money bag, the hard-earned money that is squeezed and exploited every year is simply outrageous, and this money bag is not touched by others, whoever touches Wu Leicai will fight with him, over the years, people who have this idea have been almost cleaned up by Wu Leicai. Although Li Chengfu is now prosperous in the county, he does not dare to have this idea.
"You don't stare at Lao Tzu like this, Lao Tzu didn't recruit you, there is a debtor who is wronged, who should find whom, and then stare at Lao Tzu like this, don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite." Li Chengfu is not temperless, why are these refugees in the mountains half killed by Wu Leicai, and they have to be the uncle in front of him.
"Everyone is a guest at my house today, especially these people have helped me a lot today, Lao Zheng, you don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face, don't mess with me for the big happy event." Liang Chuan scolded Li Chengfu with a smile and said.
Liang Chuan is now killing the big worm, according to the meaning of the county master, this position of the head of the capital can't run away, and it's only a matter of time before he calls himself Lao Zheng, and after that, the three-legged will stand together, Liang Chuan is his brother is better than messing around with Wu Leicai, and it's not fun for the two to get together and fix themselves.
