In the mutton restaurant on Chengnan Street, Wang Guihai took his five brothers to sit at two tables, and one person had a bowl of hot mutton soup and two baked cakes, which was extremely delicious.

After a while, four or five big men walked in from outside the tavern, and the fat man at the head chose a seat in the back and sat down, and the rest of the people sat at a table next to him, and it seemed that the fat man had quite an identity. Wang Guihai recognized the fat man at a glance, it was Sun Dacheng, and Sun Dacheng also saw Wang Zhutou, but he just glanced at it and didn't say hello.

Four years ago, on a sunny afternoon, Sun Dacheng and a few younger brothers walked aimlessly on the street, and the bamboo basket on the left hand of an old Ou accidentally scraped Sun Dacheng's clothes, but this Sun Da fat man ignored the dissuasion of the people around him, and slapped the old Ou twice. Lao Ou sat on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up, just as Sun Dacheng was scolding, a little child went up to help Lao Ou, who knew that this Sun Dacheng kicked at the child like crazy. The eight- or nine-year-old boy could not withstand his kick, and he lay on the ground sobbing with a trace of blood in the corner of his mouth. Everyone around dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, I don't know who saw Wang Guihai patrolling in the distance, and immediately shouted: "Wang Tou'er, someone is beating the old, weak, sick and disabled." "The person who reported the news turned out to be predictable, and he couldn't escape a beating.

Wang Guihai is usually deeply loved by the neighbors, and everyone sees him as if they have seen a Bodhisattva coming, and everyone has different opinions, all condemning this Sun Dacheng.

At that time, Sun Dacheng was very arrogant, and when he saw that the head catcher in Huaisu County was coming, he didn't mean to stop at all, and continued to beat the person who opened his mouth to report the news. Wang Guihai also knew about this Sun Dacheng before, and everyone said that he was a relative of the emperor in the capital, so he didn't dare to mess with him.

But Wang Zhutou can care so much, he is usually surrounded by people called by uncles and aunts, and he can't get by if he doesn't make a move. He stepped forward and pushed away Sun Dacheng and other people, and said, "What's the matter? How do you bully the weak? ”

Sun Dacheng saw that it was Wang Zhutou, and then smiled horizontally, and said, "Yo, Wang Zhutou, you are auspicious!" As he spoke, he went up and prepared to put his arms around him. Wang Guihai is not stupid, at this time he hugged Sun Dacheng, and his image in the hearts of the neighbors over the years will be ruined. Deftly dodging Sun Dacheng's hand, he turned around and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Sun Dacheng put away his hand that was stuck in mid-air and said, "They are making trouble, I will help you teach you a lesson, so as not to be burdened by Wang Zhutou." Sun Dacheng slapped his hands as he spoke, very arrogant.

The young man behind Wang Zhutou was about to step forward to scold, but Wang Guihai raised his arm to block it, and said, "Help the old man to the side to rest, and find another Lang Zhong to show this little brother the injury." ”

Sun Dacheng was not happy, and said: "Wang Zhutou, what do you mean, you look at me Sun someone unpleasantly, right?" ”

Wang Guihai glanced at Sun Dacheng, who was angry, ignored him, looked around at the neighborhoods and said, "Let's disperse." "Some people in the crowd were not convinced, it was obvious that this Sun Dacheng was unreasonable, and he also beat people, and he beat three people in the blink of an eye, and no one could bear this breath.

The more the onlookers were dissatisfied, the more arrogant Sun Da Fat Man became, looking at everyone and saying: "What's the matter, if you are not convinced, stand up and say, don't stand behind and chew your tongue." ”

Wang Guihai didn't want to provoke these meritorious magnates, and Sun Da opened a porcelain kiln and had friendships with several local magnates. For Wang Guihai, he has no background and no money, he just wants to climb up steadily on his own, and this head catcher has been doing it for many years. But it backfires, the more you endure, the more arrogant some people become. The terrible words of people are very applicable to any time and occasion, and finally Wang Da couldn't bear it anymore, turned to a few catchers behind him and said: "Sun Dacheng bullied the old and weak women and children on the street, seriously injured the people for no reason, and brought them back to the yamen for disposal." ”

When the fat man Sun saw him say this, his face immediately changed, and he shouted: "The surname Wang, if you dare to touch me, don't blame me for not reminding you, then you won't be able to eat and walk around!" ”

Wang Guihai was not surprised, put down a few gangsters who wanted to come up to dissuade him, and directly escorted Sun Dacheng to the direction of the county government, which attracted a burst of applause from everyone behind him.

It was also that time that Wang Guihai truly experienced what the darkness of officialdom was like. Less than an hour after Sun Dacheng entered the county jail, someone took the token of the county order to the prison and released Sun Dacheng, and Wang Guihai stupidly took someone to interrogate him. And the reply he got from the county magistrate Gu Baohua was: "This is a dispute between ordinary people, nothing serious, there is no need to be imprisoned." ”

Wang Guihai replied: "The people can't be counted like this when they are injured, and they don't have the money to buy medicine to heal their injuries!" ”

Gu Baohua, the county magistrate, said: "Boss Sun has already promised to compensate, so this matter will end here, and I don't want any more twists and turns." ”

Although Wang Guihai had a lot of complaints at that time, when he thought of his identity and his expectations, he could only give up. I spent money to buy medicine to see the few people who were beaten, and I have to say that it is the compensation of Sun Da Fat, isn't it just this face! It is precisely because of this incident that Wang Guihai is disgusted with this Sun Dacheng, and Sun Dacheng no longer lowers his eyebrows and pleases Wang Guihai, just like he didn't see when he saw Quandang!

The two groups of people in the mutton restaurant ignored no one and only cared about the hot mutton soup in front of them. At this time, a young catcher shouted to Xiao Er: "Little Second Brother, bring us five more baked cakes and sprinkle me some chili noodles!" ”

"Okay!" After a while, the shopkeeper trotted over, holding three pieces of bread and said with a smile: "A few masters, you eat first, and I will serve it to you after it is baked." ”

Sun Dacheng's subordinates on the side were unhappy and shouted: "Xiao Er, what do you mean!" Didn't you see us clubbing for a long time, where is our bread? ”

The shopkeeper hurriedly bowed his head and apologized: "I'm sorry guest officer, you wait a while, it'll be fine right away!" ”

"Wait? How can they still have bread, how can they look down on us ordinary people! The man said arrogantly.

The shopkeeper is also very embarrassed, there are characters on both sides who can't afford to offend, and there is no way but to go inside and ask the boss. But who knew that it was a woman, and the proprietress who still had the charm was playing haha on both sides, and she didn't want to offend, but Sun Dacheng's gang just didn't buy it, and boasted: "It's okay if you don't have baked cakes, and the boss lady will be as full if you eat it for us!" ”

The proprietress smiled awkwardly: "Don't make fun of me, the guest officer will make fun of me, the baked cakes will be good immediately!" So saying, he went inside. But who knew that Sun Dacheng's subordinates actually pulled the boss lady into his arms and began to move. Seeing this, the boss who was panning cakes in the back kitchen rushed out with a rolling pin, but was pressed to the ground by the group of people and couldn't move.

The young catcher on Wang Guihai's side couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted at the group of people: "Let go of her, otherwise you will look good!" Everyone was attracted by his voice, and the proprietress also took the opportunity to help her husband who was pressed to the ground, and the two hid in the back kitchen!

At this time, Sun Dacheng slowly turned his head, looked at the young catcher and said, "Little brat, where are you going, it's not your turn to talk here!" ”

The young man caught fast and strong, where could he stand him talking like this, he rushed over with a knife, Wang Guihai saw this and quickly got up to stop him, and whispered: "Stand in the back!" The young catcher didn't dare not listen, so he could only stare and retreat.

Sun Dacheng smiled at Wang Guihai and said: "Wang Zhutou, I haven't seen you for a long time, I've been a head catcher for so long, it's not good!" ”

Wang Guihai sneered: "Take care of yourself, it's best not to let me grab your handle!" ”

Sun Dacheng smiled: "What can you do to me, you don't have to let me go obediently!" When he said this, Wang Guihai remembered the scene four years ago, and he was angry!

At this moment, Sun Dacheng's subordinates actually ran to the back kitchen and dragged the boss out, only to hear the boss shouting: "You brutes, let go of my lady!" ”

Sun Dacheng smiled and looked at the direction of the back kitchen, but he didn't pay attention to it, seeing that it was not the first time he had done this. Wang Guihai didn't want to be as sloppy as he was four years ago, put down the baked cake in his hand, and said, "Brothers, arrest that beast inside." After saying that, he took the lead and rushed inside.

How could Sun Dacheng's subordinates let these catchers go in casually, blocking the door one by one and not letting them in. Wang Guihai drew a knife and pointed at the man in front of him and warned: "Hindering me from arresting people will increase the crime!" But that group of people relied on Sun Dacheng's relationship to not move.

Wang Zhutou had no choice, and roared in a low voice: "Draw the knife, kill!" A knife directly knocked over one, and the others saw that they were really moving, and quickly retreated to the side. Sun Dacheng didn't expect Wang Guihai to dare to use the knife, he looked at his brother on the ground and shouted: "Wang Guihai, you dare to touch my people, see how I clean you up in the future!" ”

Wang Zhutou ignored him, entered the back kitchen and directly beat the man who was plotting against him, and after a while, the two catchers quickly dragged the man out of the back kitchen.

The boss hurriedly ran to the lady who was squatting on the ground and crying bitterly, turned his head to look at Sun Dacheng's group of people with red eyes, and shouted: "I want to go to the county government to sue you!" ”

Sun Dacheng glared at him and said, "If you want to die, you can go!" ”

"Forget it, don't go, we can't afford to mess with it!" The proprietress squatted there and cried aggrievedly.

Sun Dacheng on the side seemed to be fine, got up and was about to walk out the door, and did not forget to turn back to his subordinates and said: "Brothers, go to the county government to rest first, I will visit Lord Gu, and I will pick you up in a while." After speaking, he looked at Wang Zhutou with mocking eyes.

Wang Guihai looked at Sun Dacheng's arrogant appearance, and said word by word: "Sun Dacheng, even if you are a relative of the emperor, I will let you go in hell!" ”
