"Hahaha, Ji Da is in charge. I think about how many people respected and sympathized with you when you avenged your family and killed the lieutenant who persecuted them. But now you're kidnapping an underage boy as a meat ticket! My father would rather go to jail than save the villagers, but his son had his ticket torn up. How are you different from those who work for the tiger? You are not as good as those corrupt officials in the government! Isn't it shameful for you to do that? If your wife's wife knew something, she wouldn't forgive you! After speaking, He Zhiyuan walked outside.

"Wait!" Ji Chao shouted.

The crowd who was walking out stopped when they heard this. Ji Chao continued: "Escort him back, I have something to ask him." ”

He Zhiyuan saw that things were turning around, so he returned to the hall and said to Ji Chao: "Untie me, so many people are looking at me, are you still afraid that you will not be able to escape?" ”

Ji Chao motioned to the minions to untie the ropes, He Zhiyuan moved his stiff body, thinking that it seemed that Ji Chao was not a bandit without humanity, and was provoked by his words, but things eased up a little. In his previous life, he was a technical vice president of a state-owned enterprise, and he practiced sanda in his spare time. In this life, he learned martial arts with his neighbor Xu Tangyi, so as long as he loosened the tie, he could find a chance to escape. However, he had not eaten for more than ten hours, and his body was weak, and now he had to fill his stomach first.

So he continued: "Ji Da is in charge, the government will give me a full meal even if he kills the prisoners, you won't let me go on my way without even giving me a full meal, right?" ”

Ji Chao was also generous, and did not embarrass him anymore, and then asked the minions to find some food. He Zhiyuan didn't care about 3721, he took the food for a while, and after a while, he filled his stomach.

After that, He Zhiyuan pushed the bowl, looked at Ji Chao with his eyes and said, "Ji Da is in charge, if you have anything to ask?" ”

"Boy, weren't you scared just now?"

"What if you're afraid, what's not to be afraid? I wrote to my family that maybe I could go back alive, but when I went back, my family had no land, and my father couldn't save me. If you don't write a letter, you can save my father from prison by selling a dozen acres of land, maybe my father can still rescue me, even if you can't save me, it's worth it to be torn up by you. He Zhiyuan calmly analyzed, without the fear of a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy in his speech, and he was a scheming adult.

"Hey, you kid is kind of interesting!" Zhen Ying said on the side.

Ji Chao then asked: "You said that your father would rather go to prison than protect the villagers, is that true?" ”

"Big boss, don't let this kid deceive, his father was still at home the day before yesterday, and we have already inquired about it." The next one said.

"My father was captured yesterday morning by officers and soldiers." He Zhiyuan said to the minion. Then he turned to Ji Chao and said: "Last summer, my village suffered a flood, most of the houses and fields in the village were flooded, the government could not pay the autumn grain, and my father could not bear to persecute the villagers in the village, so it was delayed until yesterday, and the government arrested my father in prison for taking the lead in resisting the payment of taxes and grain. ”

Ji Chao was silent when he heard this, and he remembered his mother and wife six years ago. If it weren't for the persecution of the village chief, how could they have committed suicide. If the lieutenant chief was like the father of the kid in front of him, he would not have killed the lieutenant chief, and naturally he would not have fallen into the grass and ended up with a knife licking blood. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel sad in my heart.

Chu Ying saw the silence of the big boss, and knew that he remembered the sad things before, and was afraid that he would be soft-hearted and let go of the kid in front of him, so wouldn't it be the thousand taels of silver in his hand that flew away. So he said to Ji Chao: "Big brother, don't listen to this kid's nonsense. The chief of the world is the same, how can there be a chief who would rather be a prison than force the grain? ”

"Yu Er is in charge, what I said is the truth, if you don't believe it, send someone to inquire." He Zhiyuan was not afraid and said to Yu Ying.

Zhen Ying ignored He Zhiyuan, turned to Ji Chao and said, "Big brother, it doesn't matter if what he says is true or not, only silver is true." In these days, if there is no money and no food, it is nothing. If you want me to say that I cut off one of his ears first and send it over, I don't believe that the landlord's wife can resist it! ”

"Fart! Second brother, how many times have I said that although we fall into the grass, there is also a way to steal, you can't kill good people at will, don't harm the poor people, have you forgotten how our relatives died? They were all killed by the chief of the grain and the corrupt officials in the yamen! ”

"Big brother, these seventy or eighty brothers who follow us on the mountain also have to eat, there is no food and no silver, let's drink the northwest wind? The food on the mountains will not last this spring! Zhen Ying argued.

"That's not good, if this lieutenant chief of Hejia Village is really like what their kid said, I respect him as a man, and such a lieutenant should not be treated like this!" Ji Chao also raised his voice, his eyes widened, and he said loudly.

Zhen Ying looked at Ji Chao's angry appearance, and he was timid. They have been together for four or five years since the grass fell, and he knows what temperament Ji Chao has, but he doesn't recognize it when he annoys him. So, he took a step back and said: "Since this is the case, then send someone to inquire, if it is not like what this kid said, just tear up the ticket!" ”

He Zhiyuan glanced at Zhen Ying hatefully, and always remembered this face in his heart.

"Monkey, you can go down the mountain to Hejia Village to inquire now, and come back and tell me directly." Ji Chao said to the minions under the mountain.

Before she could react, the minion named Monkey said yes and went out.

The monkey is Ji Chao's henchman, and he has done a good job. There was no need to send him down the mountain for such a trivial matter, and it was obvious that Ji Chao didn't want the people sent by Zhen Ying to go down the mountain. An imperceptible fierceness flashed in Zhen Ying's eyes! But no more talking.

Then Ji Chao asked the two bandits just now to take He Zhiyuan back into the dungeon. This time, though, it wasn't tied with a rope again.

In the afternoon, the cell door opened, and Ji Chao walked in alone and said to him, "Follow me!" After speaking, he picked up He Zhiyuan and walked out of the dungeon, and the two rode a horse and went directly down the mountain.

The minions next to him were stunned.

"I've inquired, what you said is the truth, and I'll send you home today." Ji Chao, who was riding on a horse, said to He Zhiyuan behind him.

"I'm worth a thousand taels of silver!"

"I said there is a way to steal."

When he arrived at the entrance of the village, it was already dark, Ji Chao stopped his horse, asked He Zhiyuan to dismount and said to him: "Your father is a man, I admire such a lieutenant." You are also good, filial piety, and courage. If it weren't for the two officials and bandits, I really wanted to make friends with your father and son. If only the head of our village had been like your father a few years ago, my family would not have been ruined. Hey, I can't go back! ”

There is a lot of sadness and helplessness in those words!

Then he clenched his fists at He Zhiyuan: "Little brother, take care!" ”

After saying that, he galloped away.

Looking at Ji Chao who was riding away, He Zhiyuan muttered: "This bandit is not fierce, but also a little cute!" ”
