Chapter 24: Criticism (3)
After Liren finished speaking, there was silence below, and the voice just now did not sound. After waiting for a long time, no one dared to come up and recognize people. At this moment, there was a commotion in the crowd below, and I saw many Suzaku soldiers wearing military uniforms to come to the stage. When they saw Liren on the stage, they knelt on the ground and pleaded loudly: "Lord! For the sake of them being first-time offenders, you can spare them for once. We're here to thank you. ”
"Shut up!" Rihito said to them angrily, and after saying this, Rihito looked at the kneeling soldiers below, and shouted angrily, "What are you doing now? Or is it not from our Suzaku Army? Could it be that our Vermilion Bird Army has produced you kowtow worms? Stand up for me, have you forgotten what the military order says? ”
After listening to what Liren said, these kneeling soldiers below all thought of the first military order of the Suzaku Army, they must stand in life and stand in death, and all the Suzaku Army only kneel to the sky, the ground, and their parents. Thinking of this military order, these soldiers straightened their waists one after another, and after standing neatly, they gave a special military salute to Liren, and said to Liren in a neat and loud voice: "Please spare them in the year of the Lord's father." ”
Although Rihito was angry at their words, he was still very happy that they could remember the first military order. Rihito gave them a military salute with his back straight, and then said, "You let me spare them?" Did they rob me? Or did you commit adultery with my relatives? Killed my loved ones? No! None of them! They didn't rob me, they didn't do anything to my relatives, because they didn't have the guts. So who are they doing? Tell me about it! Li Ren looked angrily at the soldiers who came to intercede in the audience, and saw that they opened their mouths and couldn't answer, Li Ren turned back sharply and pointed at these soldiers who were kneeling on the stage and were tied up and said, "They! That's them! Last night, together with the gangsters in Jizhou City, they not only robbed these people, but also raped their wives and daughters! That's not all, but also killed a lot of bitter masters! Saying that, Liren threw away the megaphone in his hand, took the horsewhip in the hands of the soldiers next to him, and slapped the kneeling soldiers on the stage fiercely, and then turned his head and continued to ask the neat soldiers standing under the stage: "Let me ask you, where did you come to the barracks?" The soldiers below saw that Rihito was in a rage, and they didn't dare to answer. Rihito asked loudly again, "Answer me!" ”
The youngest soldier at the bottom quickly replied: "We are from the common people, and we think that we are also ordinary people." ”
"That's right! If the answer is correct, it should be that you are also a people. Think about what you would have done if you were the people of Jizhou last night? Answer me! Li Ren shouted out with his true anger, and this question instantly spread throughout the audience.
The soldiers below thought about it, and finally had to say loudly and neatly: "Kill!" ”
Rihito only lost his breath a little now, and continued: "Be louder! What should you do? ”
"Kill! Kill! Kill! The soldiers below shouted with the strength of the milk. When they shouted the third word of killing, the people in the audience were also mobilized and shouted: "Kill them!" Kill them! ~! ~! ”
Rihito looked at the people in the audience who had been aroused to bloody madness and roar with satisfaction. After a while, Liren stretched out his hands to let everyone be quiet, and said to the audience: "Yes! Kill these black sheep. But! No matter what we do in the Suzaku Army, we must present evidence, and now without the bitter master, we cannot condemn them. Let's talk about it, what should we do now? ”
After a while, a young man supported an old man in tattered clothes and slowly walked to the stage. The old man knelt on the ground and was about to kowtow to Liren, but Liren helped the old man up and asked, "Uncle, but there is a grievance?" Just say it out loud, I'll call the shots for you today! ”
Before the old man could speak, the young man next to him said with a ruthless face: "Qiqi official, this is Uncle Chen from the tofu shop in the east of the city, his daughter-in-law was raped and killed by several of them last night!" The son was also killed by these beasts! ”
"What!" Li Ren was very shocked, and then looked at Uncle Chen, who was already old and old in front of him, with a kind face, and asked softly: "Uncle Chen!" Is that really the case? ”
"Please let the big officials call the shots for the little old man!" Uncle Chen said, and the old tears were about to kneel down again. Li Ren hurriedly held Uncle Chen and said, "Uncle Chen, if you have anything to say, I will call the shots for you." ”
Uncle Chen wiped his tears and talked about last night's events: "Last night, my family was sleeping soundly, and suddenly I heard the sound of thunder, and I thought it was going to rain, so my son and daughter-in-law went to the garden to collect clothes to dry~~~~." Uncle Chen's narration made Liren's hand holding the Flame Blood Knife tighter and tighter, and he couldn't wait to cut those beasts right now.
In the end, Uncle Chen burst into tears and finished talking about the incident intermittently. Li Ren asked Uncle Chen, "Uncle Chen, can you point out those beasts?" ”
Uncle Chen wiped his tears fiercely and said to Liren: "Even if they turn to ashes, I can recognize them." ”
"Good! Uncle Chen, you point them out to us and let them accept the sanctions of the people. Li Ren helped Chen Bo to the front of the twenty or so criminals. Uncle Chen searched carefully with his eyes, and after a while, he found the soldiers who killed Uncle Chen's son and daughter-in-law.
Li Ren looked at these soldiers who had been found out and didn't care, and the corners of his mouth curled up and asked, "Have you confessed?" ”
One of them looked at Liren with disdain and said, "Lao Tzu was in the official army, and it was okay to kill a few more people when he was fighting. Now Lao Tzu admits bad luck! After speaking, he didn't look at Rihito again.
After he finished speaking, the others also said indifferently: "Lao Tzu does things by himself, you watch and do it!" ”
"Haha! Good! Very good! It doesn't matter if you kill people and commit adultery. Very good! I really admire Liren very much! Liren was resentful in his heart, but he said calmly.
One of them, who was still a squad leader, said even more arrogantly: "Even if you catch us now, what can you do." How dare you kill us? Aren't you afraid that those who surrendered with us will rebel against you? ”
Liren looked at the team leader who spoke, and said calmly, "I'm afraid!" Of course I'm afraid. But I'm more afraid of the people! You can now ask the soldiers in the audience who have surrendered at the same time, and you can ask them now to see who they are facing! As he spoke, he grabbed the squad leader by the hair and dragged him to the side of the stage, so that he could look at the soldiers in the audience. Rihito said, "That's it! Now that you can see it more clearly, you can ask them! After saying that, Liren didn't care about the tied team leader anymore.
The squad leader didn't believe what Liren said at all, and asked the soldiers he knew in the audience: "Dog, bench~~!" Are you toward me or toward him? ”
At this time, the soldiers in the audience who were called by him looked at him with a lot of contempt, and one of them was a young man named Dogan and said: "I really didn't expect that you are such a person, and we are blind." The others chimed in: "Yes! We are blind. ”
