Volume 1: The Wind Rises and Peace Chapter 21: In the City of Peace
Mu Cheng felt that he was about to run and lack oxygen.
It has been running for half an hour, and the pursuers behind him are still chasing after him.
"Don't run...... Hold it...... Kill the grave robbers...... Let go! Don't pull Lao Tzu's pants......"
A chaotic noise came from behind Mu Cheng.
"What are these people doing in the back, they are too unwalked, right?" An errand officer behind Mu Cheng complained.
Seeing that they were about to arrive at the county seat, Mu Cheng and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I am Mu Cheng, the commander of Ping'an County, and you have committed a heinous crime by chasing and killing the court officials, so don't retreat quickly."
Standing at the gate with his back against the county seat, Mu Cheng shouted with full of energy.
The pursuers behind him saw Mu Cheng shouting, and suddenly stopped.
Mu Cheng was very satisfied with the other party's performance and spoke again.
"Don't wait for a quick retreat!"
There was some commotion in the crowd, and slowly the crowd avoided a passage, and an old man was on crutches in one hand, and the other hand was constantly trembling in front of his chest to give himself relief.
Two young men supported him behind him, as if he was afraid that the old man would stumble.
"Ula Ula Ula ......"
The old man spoke.
The young man behind him suddenly became anxious and shouted at the crowd.
"What about the village chief's dentures? If you pick up any of the losers, give it back to the village chief. Don't see you negotiating? I don't have any eyesight! ”
The crowd was in a commotion again, and after a short time a pair of dentures passed from the back of the crowd, and the young man took the dentures, dusted them off, and respectfully handed them to the old man.
The old man took the denture contentedly, put it in his mouth and tried it for a while, and then took a sip.
"Who hid my dentures in their shoes. ...... vomit"
Mu Cheng was stunned, what is the origin of these people chasing him? Is it so dirty?
Straightening his mind, Mu Cheng asked.
"Who are you, old man?"
"I'm your second uncle!"
???
Country puppet, how can you open your mouth and scold people?
"I'm your third master!" Mu Cheng replied.
The old man on the other side was also stunned, and hurriedly explained: "I am really your second uncle!" ”
"My second uncle has been dead for several years!"
Mu Cheng felt that this old man dared to insult himself, and he must find a reason to beat him to death when he turned around, and after he was killed, he would be cremated so that he would die without a whole body! By the way, his coffin was burned, so that he could only scatter his ashes into the river!
"Uh...... The little brother in front, I am the second uncle of the proposed family village! It's not your second uncle, understand? ”
The old man patiently explained.
Mu Cheng was stupid.
"Aren't you surnamed Hime?" Mu Cheng asked weakly.
The old man was stupid too.
"Maybe the surname was Ji before, and then the surname was proposed, who knows."
"Your surname is too casual, besides, I've seen the tombstone in your village, and it's the surname Him."
"Fart, my surname has been proposed for decades, and you actually told me that my surname is Xi? The surname of the ancestor is immutable, the old man fights with you! ”
"You bad old man has been upset with you for a long time, come here, see if I don't beep beep ......"
The old man was stunned, looked at the young man next to him and asked.
"What did he just say?"
"I didn't hear you."
The battle between the two was finally stopped by a clever officer.
I saw the messenger standing behind Mu Cheng and said.
"My lord, it doesn't matter what their surname is, what matters is what they are chasing us."
When Mu Cheng heard this, he suddenly realized, and he was almost fooled by this bad old man.
Hurry up.
"You and others prevent the government from handling the case, chase and try to beat the court officials, can you be convicted?"
The old man's neck was raised.
"What's the only sin?"
Mu Cheng was stupid again.
As the top administrative leader of the local government, he did not study the law. But it's not terrible not to study, after all, there are still professionals in the county government.
"County lieutenant, what about county lieutenant? Tell him what crime he has committed. ”
"My lord, Lord Yu has disappeared in the afternoon."
"Uh...... Forgot. ”
Then he saw Mu Cheng say to the old man.
"I don't care, you're sinning! It's light to kill you! ”
The old man took another sip and spoke.
"You say kill or die? You say kill or die? Is there still a royal law? ”
"In the realm of Ping'an County, I am Wang Fa!"
"Heh, you are the king? Why don't you engrave the word Wang Fa on your face? You are also the king, who do you think you are? ”
"I'm Mu Cheng, the county magistrate of Ping'an County, you old immortal dare to talk to me like this, who do you think you are?"
"I'm your second uncle!"
……
At this time, Wang Le was very worried, after all, Ma Han and Gao Weiliang had been missing for a whole day, and many people said that they hadn't seen each other since morning.
Ma Han couldn't have beaten Gao Weiliang to death, and then absconded in fear of crime, right?
Wang Le thought secretly in his heart.
Just when Wang Le was distressed, he saw Lao Hua secretly coming over.
"I have something to tell you."
Lao Hua said solemnly.
Seeing Lao Hua's serious face, Wang Le also put away the worries in his heart and said with a straight face.
"You say."
"There are no herbs in the village, and Wu Mazi's injuries are always repeated, so I'm afraid that something will happen."
"Today, more than 400 taels of silver were found from the person brought by the old Wangba, tomorrow you and I will go down the mountain to buy food and medicinal herbs."
"Okay."
After sending Lao Hua away, Wang Le once again entered worry mode.
Finally, in the second half of the night, Wang Le wanted to continue to worry, but he didn't allow it to be sleepy. Wang Le finally fell asleep in the battle between heaven and man.
Early in the morning, Lao Hua pulled Wang Le up from the bed and went to the county seat to buy.
Wang Le yawned and spoke
"It's not enough for the two of us, let's call a few more."
"Cheer, the carriage is ready."
As he spoke, Lao Hua also pointed to the carriage parked in the distance.
Wang Le followed Lao Hua's fingers and saw many flies flying around the carriage, and there were yellow unknown liquids dripping down drop by drop......
"Is it appropriate for you to use a manure truck to transport food?"
"It's not a dung truck, it's the honey truck that I grabbed last time."
One of the bandits explained.
"I don't care, wash up and go. Isn't this disgusting to the county seat? ”
Wang Le pointed to the carriage and said.
When several thieves heard this, they hurriedly fetched water and began to clean the carriage, and it was not long before the carriage was cleaned.
"Please get in the car."
A bandit spoke with a lot of discernment.
Wang Le praised the other party fiercely in his heart, but waved his hand and refused.
"It's okay, I'll take two steps."
As the first time to go down the mountain after crossing, Wang Le is still looking forward to it. After all, the next step is to look at the current appearance of the town here, and Wang Le is still looking forward to the social development of this era.
However, Wang Le still underestimated the distance from the cottage to the county seat. After walking for more than half an hour, Wang Le finally couldn't stand it anymore, sat down on the ground, and said.
"I'm tired, let's rest for a while before leaving."
Seeing this, the bandit with the vision hurriedly spoke: "The big boss should not get in the car and sit for a while, it is not far away, and it will be there in half an hour." ”
As soon as he heard that there was still half an hour to arrive, Wang Le was on the ground, then got up, sat on the carriage, and then said, "Go!" ”
Sitting in the carriage and walking for a while, Wang Le felt that something was wrong, and asked the thief beside him.
"What stinks?"
The thief sniffed, then his eyes fell on the carriage, and walked around the carriage for a while, before he spoke to Wang Le.
"I was in too much of a hurry to go out and pulled the wrong car. This is a car that digs manure. ”
“……”
Finally endured the smell and arrived at Ping'an County, only to see a long queue at the gate of the county, all of whom were people who wanted to enter the county.
Wang Le commanded a group of thieves to drive the carriage and stopped in the team.
When you're away from home, quality matters!
Outside the county seat, there were a few patrol officers, looked at the bandits, and then glanced at the carriage in which Wang Le was riding, and then shouted at the people in line.
"Get out of the way, let the manure truck go in first......"
Wang Le and the bandits: "......"
So Wang Le, surrounded by all the bandits, sat in the carriage of this privileged class, and walked into the county seat under the disgusted eyes of everyone.
At this time, the county town was very lively, with shouting and selling everywhere, and the psychological game between the old lady and the vegetable seller about money was being staged everywhere.
"You find a place to put the car away, and the doctor and I will take a look first, and we will meet here in an hour."
Wang Le commanded to the bandits. Then he took Lao Hua and walked towards the lively place in front of him.
Just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, Wang Le feels fresh about everything in the county.
Seeing that a large number of people had gathered in the shop in front of him, especially women, Wang Le turned his head and asked Lao Hua.
"What's that shop up ahead? Why are there so many people? ”
Lao Hua stretched out his head to look at it, and then replied.
"That shop is from the Western Regions, it is a store specializing in women's clothes, it seems to be called Ali Dad, it is quite famous in this county."
“……”
Feelings, where does Alibaba make women's money?
Wang Le sneered.
"Where are we going to buy medicinal herbs?"
After shopping for a while, Wang Le was a little tired, and turned his head to Lao Hua and asked.
Lao Hua smiled wrinkledly.
"It's not far ahead, turn the corner in front and you'll see it."
Following Lao Hua around the corner, a strong smell of Chinese medicine came to his nose.
"This is a medicine market, a place that specializes in selling medicinal herbs, and this smell is everywhere, just bear with it."
Seeing that Wang Le didn't seem to be able to stand the smell of medicinal herbs, he had already covered his mouth and nose at this time, and Lao Hua opened his mouth to explain.
"Where are we going to buy it?"
"Go to the front, there's the biggest pharmacy here."
Wang Le nodded when he heard this, and continued to follow Lao Hua towards the depths.
After walking a short distance, I saw a shop front full of people. Lao Hua smiled and pointed there.
"Look, that's it."
Wang Le was speechless, he felt that Lao Hua would still laugh less in the future, and his smile was like the locust tree grandmother of a Chinese ghost story, which was weird.
Finally walked to the door of the store, Wang Le looked at the signboard, and then said to Lao Hua.
"Let's buy it at another store."
"What's wrong?"
"This shop looks like it's selling counterfeit medicines."
"No, this store is the largest pharmacy in the county, and it has always been advertised as a child. It has won the title of Ping'an County Credit Business for many times. ”
Wang Le shook his head.
"What the hell is going on?" Lao Hua asked puzzled.
Wang Le looked up at the three gilded characters of "Baidutang" on the store's signboard. said to Lao Hua.
"I'm really not at ease, I always feel that this store sells fake drugs."
