Xu Maocai anxiously dressed and waited for a while, he heard gunshots in two directions, and there were gunshots, the gunshots were very fierce, it was the muffled sound of the guns being fired at the same time, Xu Maocai hurriedly spun in place, and shouted: "Come on, knock on the gong, recruit the strong men of the whole village, this is the starting point of the bandits in our village." (Hebei black dialect, which means that **** has just arrived in a place, looking for fault)

He felt that something was wrong in his mind, but he couldn't confirm it, so he could only spin in place.

"Dad, it's over, it's over."

His son ran back and cried out from afar.

Xu Maocai was angry, slapped him, and said, "I'm not dead yet, what's the matter?" ”

He actually saw and understood, that Lai Guang was being supported by several descendants at this time, and there was a silent wail, which could be seen by the moonlight, and he had blood on his body, and it was estimated that he had eaten a shot.

The son cried and said, "It's over, the whole village is surrounded, and you can't even get out of the small river ditch. ”

He made a bitter face and said, "Dad, this can't be the bandits who have taken refuge in the bolt coming to us, what can I do?" ”

Xu Maocai howled: "What are you afraid of, hurry up and invite Master Xu, isn't his family in the imperial capital, and he hasn't come in yet, what are you afraid of." Although Xu Maocai was also trembling, he still held his neck high, thinking of ideas.

The whole village was frightened, just like how many times there had been a turmoil before, whether it was a large soldier, it was necessary to guard against soldiers and ruffians to wash the village directly, to prepare gifts for filial piety, and to mobilize all the men, women and children of all villages, men and women to prepare to guard the earthen fence, women to prepare to boil water, and even make up their minds to give the girl of whose family as a gift.

The reason why he was requisitioned as a man and embarked on the road of getting rich was because his family was poor and he was not from this village, so he was coerced to be sent out to investigate the situation, and he was caught by the patrolling soldiers.

Of course, this is also the root of the envy of the villagers, a widow with a child, naturally bullied, if not for a certain situation, under normal circumstances, will be directly Chen Tang in the secret by some people, killed, everyone eats together, it is also the most cruel existence in this era.

The whole village, as before, was also prepared in a panic, they did not know what was happening, they could only rely on word of mouth, and they also knew that someone had put a gun.

"All...... It's all surrounded, in all directions, even the river ditch is watched, don't go out, Dad, what should I do. ”

Chen Xiaoshui rubbed his tired eyes and said, "In this way, the factory team will be used to deal with this kind of mass incident, and some lawsuits will be fought in the future." ”

Wu Ming said indifferently: "Now all the evidence proves that it was Li Xiangqian's family who indulged women and bullied men and women, and if you don't deal with him at this time, what are you waiting for." ”

"Do you believe this kind of reason, he ate too much, for a few dozen taels of silver, that is, a little pocket money, instigating people to make things bad? Now it's better to think about how to end it, as the saying goes, starting a war is simple, but how to stop a war is very difficult, people have already helped you surround it, what to do next, you have to have a good idea. ”

Wu Ming waved his hand and said: "What else is there to say below, all rush in for me, there is no suspect in the whole village, and those who participated in the murder are all caught and put on trial. ”

Chen Xiaoshui rubbed his eyes, the relationship between him and Li Xiangqian can't be said to be bad, now it's just a matter of acting impartially, and said: "First of all, I have dozens of people here, a dozen guns, controlling hundreds of people in the village, and the concubines are afraid that they can't do it, secondly, and then, who will ask the case?" We don't have a judicial mouthful. ”

Wu Ming pointed and said, "Just interrogate according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, I don't believe it yet!" ”

Chen Xiaoshui said slowly: "I've been doing projects outside for a day or two, I know what this Daming Law is, the so-called law does not blame the public, the Ming Dynasty has done more than the broken things of watching the villagers fight, ancient and modern, in fact, now I also understand, why the police uncle can calmly watch those people wearing white hats kill people, smash shops, rob and rape and be indifferent, as soon as people are mobilized, tens of thousands of people, just for the small case of a few female students being **, the magnates know how to calculate, With such a big investment, it can't be suppressed without mobilizing the army, but with so much spending, it's a small shopkeeper like you, I'll kill you. ”

Wu Ming roared: "Then use our law!" ”

Chen Xiaoshui was happy, and said: "That's more interesting, now I guess the case, that is, the bully doesn't like the tenants to go to the homestead, and there are fewer slaves, so they stop it, this is simply not a thing, okay, a vicious incident, but the person did not die, although there were injuries, but the old lady died like this because she ran outside for dozens of miles, she was anxious and angry, and she was scared, so she died, you insisted on saying that they were also to blame, it was a bit of a crossing, of course, I know, you are looking at this loving mother can do this for her son, I am also the son of others, I'm also moved, but how many people can be killed for this? Nothing more than exile. ”

Wu Ming was stunned for a moment and said: "It's these beasts who treat killing people as a casual thing, and can they spare them?" Although they didn't know that they were going to bury the conspiracy of the bolt mother and son directly, they only looked at the old lady's injuries and knew what kind of attack she had suffered to escape.

Chen Xiaoshui sighed and said: "Didn't anyone say that a little thief will kill the head, so if this person commits the crime of robbing the emperor's tomb, isn't he also going to kill the head, the result is that no one cares about the law, and the thief who stole things will directly kill people and set fire because he has committed a capital crime." ”

Wu Ming sighed for a while, if he knew, "Li Xiangqian knows?" And said this to you? ”

Chen Xiaoshui said: "The factory protection team is also under the jurisdiction of the army in the system, he can nod, I can use the excuse of escorting materials to bring people out, you see, the problem of this matter is not here, we have no influence on the grassroots is the problem, the government can't enter the village." ”

Wu Ming said: "Then go straight in!" What is this, we have the most perfect technology, the most perfect medical treatment, the most perfect everything on the planet, but under the rule, there are all kinds of bullshit and shit, no, this is absolutely not good. ”

Chen Xiaoshui looked helpless and said, "What do you say you should do now?" ”

"What do you think we should do now?"

In Li Xiangqian's bedroom, he is a workaholic, so the villa assigned is relatively backward, first carry forward the style, let the other elders live in it first, it can't be said to be a show, just a personal preference, the original concubine's bedroom, at this time he was disheveled, obviously just took a bath, there is a blackboard in the corner, which is full of relationship diagrams, there are bolts and the names of people in the village, of course, through Luyun, just contact himself.

After he finished talking to Lu Yun, a girl who was panicking, Lu Yun lowered her head and said, "It's all up to the elders." ”

Li Xiangqian pointed to the blackboard and said: "You see, people and people are composed of countless relationships, people say, any two people, can be connected through five people, this is not connected with these people, of course, this kind of relationship, I have to admit, there really is." ”

Lu Yun was a little anxious and said, "Master, I ......"

Li Xiangqian scratched his head and said: "This kind of thing, it won't be broken, you see, there are two choices, one is that I help you cut off this relationship, and you will forget that there are still these relatives in the future, of course, your heart will be uncomfortable, put everything on me in the future, on the other hand, I will help you settle the matter, however, these relatives will not miss your good, they will only hate you more, you are so capable, why don't you bring them into the imperial capital as officials?" So I'm looking for you even harder, and I can't let you stay here, of course, help you find a stable job and go to live in the new city. ”

"Plop", Lu Yun immediately knelt down and said, "Master, I will follow you in the future, I ......"

She gritted her teeth, thinking of the pain of living with her uncle, so she said, "Just listen to you, I'll follow you." ”

The implication is that the first method is naturally chosen.

Li Xiangqian was also secretly surprised, but on the surface, he was silent, looking at her gradually growing pretty face, because of her abundant nutrition and good development, she now has a little bit of posture, and said, "Does it belong to me completely?" ”

"It's all yours."

"No regrets?"

Li Xiangqian smiled, slowly picked her up, put her on the table, and said, "Then I really treat you as my own, you have to behave yourself, this is not an easy thing." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the barrier of his clothes, put his hand in, searched for a while, nodded, and said, "The nutritious meal I found for you every day still works, no, it's already very material." ”

Lu Yun vaguely knew that today was different from the previous point, just playing, and when it reached a certain extent, he would let go, and when he was nervous, he soothed his body, and lay there, letting Li Xiangqian peel off the layers of clothes like peeling off a gift box.

This was a gift he made for himself, such an obedient girl, but it was hard to find, but it was enough to stay now.

When the fruit is ripe, it can naturally be picked, he smiled secretly, touched it soothingly, and said, "Peace of mind, everything has me." ”

"Ah, okay."

Under the confrontation of Xujiatun all night, the whole village basically did not sleep, and spent it in panic, and in the early morning, it was already tired and sleepy, and very hungry, just thinking, the day was about to dawn, and the children were sent to inquire about the situation, but they were frightened.

There was the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, mighty, Xu Maocai naturally knew that the one who could have such a skill in this neighborhood must be the government, and shouted: "Be careful, the government has come out to suppress the bandits, don't be hit, the child, let the girl hide in the firewood, be careful to be seen by the official, a few bastards, prepare a reward for the official." ”

He couldn't think about whether the people who besieged him last night were also from the government, but soon, a group of soldiers would be enough to teach them the truth of being a human being.

After the cavalry who rushed into the village put their guns and terrorized the villagers, those who were holding the work of farming also fled, but they could not escape, and they were all on their knees under the siege of division one by one.

"One team of adult men, one team of women, children and children, placed in teams, none of them are allowed to run, and those who dare to hide will be shot directly."

This is not the first time they have done this kind of thing, when the Liaodong Tartars were cleaned, it was also a little bit of cleaning, but it was also smooth, but the poor population in this village was not large, and they were naturally familiar with the road, of course, those young girls, although they wiped their faces with pot ash, they couldn't stop their pretty faces, but no one touched them.

The bayonet is the most powerful word, and a person from the Xu family roared: "Which part are you, there are people in our family in the emperor, there are people." ”

"Flutter!" The bayonet was very measured, it hit the arm, he couldn't lift it, and he fell to the ground in fright, Xu Maocai walked over and hugged it, wanting to say something, but he was afraid of angering others.

I don't know how many people there are, there is only one sentence in their mouths, and there is nothing else to say, "A team of adult men, a team of women, children and children, placed in teams, no one is allowed to run, and those who dare to hide will be shot directly!" ”

There are children who are so frightened that they cry, there are also those who fall to the ground in fright, and of course there are also sitting cannons that are disguised as falling to the ground, but those soldiers are merciless, they get the task of clearing people as soon as possible, bayonets are the best products in the world, even if they are ground-sitting cannons, they can't resist.

These soldiers seem to have been instructed a long time ago, a squad to take care of dozens of people, mighty, when they have enough, they will be escorted away directly, and the rest of the people will continue to search and arrest, and when the people in the village are almost caught, they will naturally start to arrest people in the haystacks and barns, and in the end, the effect is good, and some of them are also caught, and they are escorted directly outside.

The people of Xujiatun howled and no one cared, and they would be educated by bayonets immediately when they rolled on the ground, naturally they were honest, they were attacked so suddenly in the morning, they were tired and hungry, and there were really some people who were usually in poor shape and fell to the ground and wailed, but before these soldiers came, it seemed that they were fiercely mobilized, they were mainly farmers in the northwest, unemployed hawkers, and the hatred of the local heroes can be said to be deep in the bone marrow, so to speak, someone's mobilization is very effective, just poking their lungs.

That's empathy.

Just as the descendants of a landlord will watch the white-haired woman scold the peasants that they should be the slaves of our landlords and should be played casually, and the peasant soldiers will be so excited that they shoot when they watch the play below, these are all living lives, not simple dramas.

The county seat of Changli is actually very close, and the mighty team has dragged for a mile, but no one dares to run, the reason is very simple, Li Xiangqian just played a small trick when mobilizing the soldiers.
