Chapter 864 is that you yourself are too stupid

Eastern Xinjiang

Muping City

There are already more and more foreigners wandering around on the streets, and it seems that they are not professional at all compared to the merchants of Eastern Chu, who will never leave their stalls until the end of the market, and these foreigners do not seem to be here to do business at all, but more like they are here for sightseeing.

Foreigners dressed in strange costumes in the eyes of the Han people looked curiously at everything in Muping City, the streets, the buildings, including the people. It's as if Mu Ping people are looking at foreigners curiously, but the eyes of the two people are different. The locals of Muping look at foreigners with the eyes of a strange animal. And when foreigners look at Mu Pingren, they use a kind of eyes that see a lower animal.

The foreigners' costumes were secretly ridiculed by Mu Pingren, and I don't know how much, especially the swallowtail-shaped top and tight pants, and the big bag bulging up on the crotch looked disgusting and barbaric. The skeleton of foreigner women is generally very large, wearing a long skirt with exposed shoulders, and the two things on the chest are bulging like white-flour steamed buns that have just come out of the pot, and they are inflated to the extreme. When Mu Ping's men see it, they can't help but think, what does it feel like to touch it?

Because there are more and more foreigners, the market is becoming less and less peaceful. The greatest advantage of the Eastern Chu merchants was to abide by the laws of the Great Sui and not dare to anger the Sui people. Therefore, there were so many Eastern Chu merchants in Muping City, and there were no vicious incidents. However, since the foreigners replaced the Eastern Chu people, Muping's security has become worse and worse.

A while ago, there was a foreigner who didn't pay for the merchant's things, and was pulled by the merchant and didn't let him go, the foreigner almost didn't hesitate, he took out the short gun from his waist and raised his hand to shoot, the merchant's leg was hit with a blood hole and wailed and fell, the patrol of the street and the official army quickly surrounded him, the foreigner did not have any fear in the face of the army but scolded loudly, was controlled by the angry crowd and tied up and sent to the government.

According to the previous rules of the Great Sui, for such foreigners who dared to make trouble on the territory of the Great Sui, no matter where they came from, they would be sentenced in accordance with the laws of the Great Sui. For example, in the northwest of Fangu City, those herdsmen from Mengyuan are also extremely strong, but no one dares to make a mistake in front of the border army.

Li Xiaozong can still maintain the majesty of an empire no matter what, and any people from the Mengyuan people or other steppe ethnic groups who make trouble will be dealt with immediately as long as they are discovered.

But this time it's a little different.

The foreigner who injured the merchant was arrested and put into the official mansion, and the Muping County Shou sentenced him to 30 boards and then went to prison to compensate the merchant, but before the board could be beaten, a group of officers and soldiers from the general's mansion immediately rushed in, saying that the general would personally interrogate and take the foreigner away.

The next day, someone saw this foreigner appear in the market in a grand manner, and continued to look at Sui Ren with that disgusting look, and the expression was like, what can you do with me?

Angry civilians surrounded his stall and demanded an explanation. The officials of Muping Mansion rushed over and were also shocked. At this time, it was the pro-soldiers of the General's Mansion who appeared, and drove away the people surrounding the foreigners' stalls with sticks, and even deliberately left four pro-soldiers holding wooden sticks to guard them until dark.

After this incident happened, there were more such things in Muping City.

Two days ago, two bearded foreigners openly dragged a girl into a small alley on the street to do wrong, and the girl desperately resisted, attracting the officials who patrolled the streets, and the officials were furious and beat the two foreigners severely. Who would have thought that the next day, these officials were paraded on the streets, accused of destroying diplomatic relations and friendship.

The entire Mu Ping was permeated with a very depressing atmosphere in No. 1 Middle School.

And those foreigners are laughing wildly.

According to the laws of the Great Sui, no matter where people come from, as long as they enter the territory of the Great Sui, they are not allowed to carry weapons, which is the rule of the Great Sui. But in Muping, the foreigners who wandered the street had short guns stuck in their waists, and they also carried long swords with strange shapes, like an elongated iron nail.

Zuo Mingcia sat on the second floor of a teahouse on the window seat, he looked on the street, a few merchants with bulk goods shouted and passed by, one of them raised his head and looked up, Zuo Mingcia quietly bowed slightly, and the merchant immediately sped up and left.

On the street, the owner of a tavern was punched by a foreigner, and the drunken foreigner was scolding something while beating people, and the blood on the corner of the elderly tavernkeeper's mouth was so bright red. The crowd immediately gathered and pointed, and some of them were angry and came forward to theorize but were pulled by their relatives, and said in a low voice What are you doing, be careful that the people in the government have arrested you and gone to the streets!

These words wiped out the little thought of righteousness and courage.

The tavernkeeper was broken in the corners of his mouth, and the beater walked away.

The foreigner staggered down the street, picked up a fruit from the stall next to him and put it in his mouth to nibble, and the fruit seller opened his mouth and finally endured it.

It's only been a few months, because of the appearance of the Great General's Mansion, the pride in the bones of the local people in Muping was replaced by cowardice so quickly.

The foreigner pulled a passing young woman into his arms, the young woman screamed in fright, but she couldn't break free, and the passers-by watched the young woman being pulled by the foreigner into a small alley, one by one expressionless. At this moment, a merchant came over with something, and it seemed that he accidentally knocked the foreigner on his head, and the foreigner immediately spat at the merchant, scolding.

The merchant hurriedly went over, helped him up, and then said something with a smile. Seeing the flattery on the face of the merchant, the onlookers looked angry, and the eyes were clearly saying that this merchant was a shameless scum! But I forgot that I was indifferent when I watched the foreigner pull the young woman.

The merchant actually said a few words to the foreigner, and pointed to the alley, and the foreigner immediately laughed and pulled the merchant inside.

The merchant gestured as he turned around, and the merchant who was traveling with him immediately stepped into the alley first. Not far away, several officials patrolling the streets looked at this side, and one of the officials whispered something in the ear of the head catcher, and the head catcher bowed slightly, and then turned to the other side with the people.

……

……

In the alley, a group of merchants punched and kicked the foreigner over, because the mouth was blocked with rags, and the foreigner could only send a faint cry for help. The merchant moved very quickly, and after putting down the foreigner, he punched him a few times at the vital point, and the foreigner immediately fainted.

On the other side of the alley, a few officials who came around watched this scene happen, and the officer who had reminded the head catcher before turned his head and asked, "Do you want to catch it?" ”

The head catcher glared at him fiercely: "Catch a fart, I didn't see anything." ”

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, and the other officials looked at each other, and then one by one they either looked at the sky or at their feet: "I heard that Lao Chen's family added Ding yesterday, let's go to his house to see the joy after the shift is over?" ”

"Okay, okay, bring a few pounds of eggs."

"Another big!"

"Count me in"

The usual serious and rigid head catcher turned around and said, his expressionless appearance was not a little more fearful than in the past. The officials were stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing. The head catcher took out a money bag from his arms and handed it to one of the officials: "Buy some more red dates, don't buy a big rooster, buy a few black chickens, and buy a few crucian carp." ”

"Oh, sir, you're a connoisseur."

A servant said with a smile.

The headcatcher glared at him fiercely, and then laughed to himself: "Patrol the streets!" Patrol the streets! Today is peaceful, brothers, don't slack off. In the future, whenever you encounter something like today, everyone will just laugh and laugh, understand? ”

"Got it!"

The officials nodded neatly.

In the alley, the merchants smiled as they watched the servants leave, then put the foreigner into a sack, and the two of them carried them out of the alley.

Zuo Mingcia stood up from the second floor, settled the money, and left. He first walked around the street for a while, and deliberately passed by the gate of Yang Shunhui's General's Mansion, and found that there were several carriages parked outside the General's Mansion, and it could be seen from the expression on the coachman's face that the people who hired them were obviously not very popular, so Zuo Mingcian speculated that they must be foreigners.

He wandered around the street seemingly aimlessly for a while, and then returned to the shop where the goods were all over the world. Zhou Mingli, the shopkeeper, saw him coming back, and immediately ordered someone to close the shop in advance: "Close the store early today, there is no business to do." ”

The young man hurriedly closed the door, glad that he could rest earlier.

Zuo Mingcian and Zhou Mingli glanced at each other and walked into the backyard one after another. In the firewood room in the backyard, the foreigner who was beaten almost without a human form woke up after pouring a bucket of cold water, and looked at the few big men in front of him involuntarily shrank back, with fear in his eyes.

Zhou Mingli walked in separately, glanced at the foreigner and frowned: "Why did you fight like this?" ”

Without waiting for his subordinates to explain, he said seriously: "It's so light!" ”

The men immediately laughed, and someone went up and immediately made up for it. The foreigner was suffocated by the kick in the chest, and he could barely breathe. The foreigner shrank back vigorously, lest he be beaten again.

"Your name is Deckri, from the Opru Empire, right?"

Zhou Mingli asked, what he really didn't expect was that his foreigners' words were so good. However, as the steward in Muping City, he naturally can't sit still if he doesn't have the ability.

"Now you are given two choices, first, what I ask you to answer truthfully, you live. Second, you can not answer anything I ask, you die. ”

Deckley's face was as pale as paper, and he nodded immediately.

"Was Eastern Chu destroyed by your Opru Empire?"

Zhou Mingli asked.

Deckley was stunned for a moment, then shook his head vigorously: "I don't know. ”

burst

Standing on one side, Zuo Mingcia moved as fast as lightning, and pulled out a horizontal knife from the waist of the Xiao Riding School beside him, and chopped off Deckley's left hand with a single sword. Before he could scream, a young rider quickly gagged Deckri's mouth with a rag, and the wail turned into a muffled grunt. Blood spurted from the wound on his wrist, and the next second Deckley fainted in pain.

Another bucket of cold water poured over him, and the first thing he saw when he woke up was the dangling knife.

"Yes!"

He saw the knife shake again, and immediately replied without waiting for anyone to ask: "The army of the Oplu Empire has already invaded Eastern Chu, if nothing else, Emperor Lyman the Great is now standing in the palace of the Eastern Chu Kingdom." ”

Zhou Mingli's face changed: "How many troops have come to attack the Eastern Chu Oplu Empire?" ”

"I really don't know."

Deckley looked at Zhou Mingli with pleading eyes: "We are just on the orders of Grand Duke Shurens to confuse your Han army, making you think that we really just want to trade." I don't know about the military, but ...... You don't kill me, I'll tell you who knows! ”

"Good"

Zhou Mingli agreed very simply: "Tell me, I'll let you live." ”

"Marquis Cleo is in Yang Shunhui's mansion, he is the representative of the Grand Duke of Thurence, he knows very well! He's a man of about sixty, a little hunchbacked, with glasses, and if you've seen him, you'll know I'm not lying! ”

After saying this, Deckley suddenly realized something, and he said a little too much.

Zhou Mingli turned around and walked out, and then a Xiao riding school drew a knife and walked towards Deckley, Deckley wailed: "You promised not to kill me, you can't be unreasonable!" ”

Zhou Mingli glanced back at him: "Stupid person, do you think I will reason with the enemy?" If you bite you to death and don't say what that Marquis Cleo looks like, I won't kill you for the time being, and blame yourself for being stupid...... Break his hands and feet, and throw him into the sea, and some greedy fish will come. ”
