These days, people often come to report that Ma Jiangong stole their horses and robbed them of their belongings. For this reason, County Magistrate Liu was very worried.

So, he asked Xiangzi to pay attention to Ma Jiangong's movements and find an opportunity to catch him.

Ma Jiangong is a Hui of Guangquanzi Ergongliang and Shajiawan. Ma Zhongying's defeated army passed through Guangquanzi and forcibly replenished some soldiers. Ma Jiangong is a tall horse, and he has practiced martial arts since he was a child and is good at horseback riding. Soon became the squad leader of the recruits.

In order to sail to southern Xinjiang as soon as possible, Ma Zhongying conducted supernormal training for new recruits.

Ma Jiangong couldn't bear it, so he secretly escaped from the barracks and wandered around on a windy and dark night. After the wind passed, I returned to my hometown.

Although Ma Jiangong has not been in the barracks for a long time, he has contracted the bad habit of being good and evil, greedy for enjoyment, and getting something for nothing.

He believes that people are not rich without windfalls, and horses are not fertile without night grass. So, he started stealing other people's property. The talents and goods obtained are used for eating, drinking, prostitution, gambling, and wanton squandering. Occasionally, I dare to come to the casino in the county to play and enjoy it.

Xiangzi took Liu Chao and went to the casino.

Seeing the gangsters on the street, Ma Si also hugged his arms and squeezed in front of the gambling table. The monkey shouted anxiously, cheering and sighing to others.

Shoko approached him and whispered, "Lost again?" ”

Ma Si glanced at it, and saw that it was Xiangzi, so he nodded hurriedly and picked up some nice words.

Xiangzi took out twenty yuan, stuffed it in his hand, and said, "Help me bet two, win it's yours, lose it's mine, I just want to have fun." ”

Ma Si glanced at Xiangzi in surprise, and his dry face suddenly turned bloody. He foamed loudly in his hand and counted the money beautifully.

He raised his hand at Xiangzi again, and said happily: "No more, no less, twenty yuan!" ”

As he spoke, he turned his head and squeezed to the table.

When the gambler has money on him, the shouting is especially loud. Especially like Ma Si, the owner who can rarely hold money in his hand is even more arrogant, for fear that others will not know that he has money in his hand.

Ma Si's shouts gradually softened, and finally squeezed out of the crowd without stepping down.

Seeing Xiangzi, he said with a dejected face: "It's really the back of my mother's hand today, and I can't even win a handful." ”

Xiangzi smiled indifferently at him and said, "How can you win long in gambling, if you don't lose your wife and children, it's not bad." ”

Ma Si showed a poor and sour look, and muttered, "I still have Aunt Mo." ”

Xiangzi patted Ma Si, who was only left on the shoulder, and said, "Come with me, I have something to say to you." ”

Coming to a secluded alley, Xiangzi pretended to be casual and said, "Guangquanzi's Ma Jiangong, do you know it?" ”

Ma Si hurriedly said: "That thief baby, I also recognize it when it turns to ashes, and when I was a child, I didn't bully me a lot." ”

Shoko casually asked, "Has he been to the casino recently?" ”

Ma Si hurriedly said: "I've come, I've come." A few days ago, I saw Mi. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Xiangzi with a puzzled look.

Xiangzi sighed lightly, pretended to be angry, and said, "That bear owes me a lot of money, but he just hides and doesn't pay it back." ”

After a pause, he continued, "If you see him next time, you can tell me." If you want money, I will divide half of it. ”

Ma Si smiled slipperily, looked at Xiangzi and said, "But the truth? ”

Shoko smiled heartily at him and said, "Honestly, I won't lie to you." ”

Ma Si was happy, as if he had won money, and grinned, "Mo Mada." ”

Xiangzi had just eaten lunch when he saw Ma Si running over in a panic, panting and saying, "Ma Jiangong...... The thief is coming. ”

Shoko hurriedly got up and said, "Where?" How many people? ”

Ma Si still gasped and said, "I saw him alone, entering the casino." ”

Xiangzi waved at Liu Chao, and the two quickly came to the casino.

Xiangzi asked Liu Chao to stay outside the door, settle him that there were many people on the street, and try not to shoot. He pretended to be casual and went into the casino.

He first looked at the card table by the door for a moment.

Just at the beginning, someone won the money, and everyone cheered. Shoko also pretended to be a gambler, shouting indiscriminately. Gaze, but scanned back and forth, every corner of the casino.

Ma Jiangong is a tall and tall horse. A stout man with a beard and a cowhide top hat.

At this time, they were crowded in front of the table in the back, pointing fingers and shouting.

Ma Jiangong is a good gambler, but he easily doesn't gamble by himself. Rather, it is to see who is lucky, and to follow the part, and take a cut of it (proportional to the winner's money).

Seeing that Ma Jiangong was on the rise, Xiangzi slowly leaned over and followed him to put money on the table. As a result, this one lost.

Ma Jiangong glared at Xiangzi with a meaty face, and shouted uncleanly: "Blame you for raising eyebrows!" Bad Lao Tzu loses money. Get out of here! Otherwise, Lao Tzu will kick and break your doll's legs. ”

Xiangzi smiled mysteriously at him and whispered, "Look at you, you're also a player, you have a good deal, I wonder if you're interested in doing it?" ”

Ma Jiangong glared at him and said, "What kind of business?" ”

Xiangzi deliberately vigilantly, glanced around, and said, "There are a lot of people here, please go outside and talk." ”

Ma Jiangong looked at Xiangzi with a suspicious gaze for a while. As if he had made up his mind, he turned around and walked out the door, followed by Shoko.

Ma Jiangong just went out, and saw Liu Chao rushing over. He flew up suddenly and kicked Liu Chao to the ground. was about to flee, but Xiangzi, who was following a step, buckled his left shoulder.

If you want to talk about Ma Jiangong, there are still two times. He hurriedly undressed a fairy and untied Shoko's hand. But Shoko's other hand was locked on his right shoulder like an iron tong.

He saw that it was difficult to get out of being entangled by Xiangzi, so he simply opened his fists and kicks and fought with Xiangzi.

Ma Jiangong relied on his tall and powerful, bowl-sized fist, with the sound of the wind, and smashed towards Xiangzi like raindrops. Xiangzi is not in a hurry, so that he can take a dexterous step and dial a thousand catties.

made Ma Jiangong, not only could his fists and feet not touch Xiangzi's side, but he was so tired that he spit out white smoke in his mouth. Xiangzi saw that his hands and feet slowed down, and when he saw the opportunity, he kicked Ma Jiangong to the ground.

At the same time, he pulled out a short gun from his lower back, pointed it at him, and said, "Don't move!" Or blow your head off! ”

As he spoke, he shook his head and motioned for Liu Chao to tie up. Liu Chao quickly pulled out the rope from behind him and rushed over.

At this moment, a white light flashed in front of Shoko's eyes, and a dart flew towards his head. He was afraid of accidentally injuring the onlookers behind him, so he didn't dodge sideways, but shrank slightly and reached out to catch the dart.

At the same time, just as Liu Chao pounced on Ma Jiangong, he was caught off guard and was dazed by a handful of fried peas spilled by Ma Jiangong.

When the two came back to their senses, Ma Jiangong had already squeezed out of the crowd and ran away like a tripping rabbit. Shoko was afraid of hurting passers-by, so he didn't dare to shoot. watched and let him run away.

Xiangzi was about to leave in frustration, but saw Ma Si crowded into the crowd far away. So, he pretended to pass by him and gave him twenty dollars.

For the matter of escaping Ma Jiangong, Xiangzi blamed himself very much. I think I'm too careless, if I bring more people from the police station, maybe I will put people in prison a long time ago.

County Magistrate Liu repeatedly comforted him, and said: "Although Ma Jiangong is a loose man, he is also a frightened bird. I think if I give him another knock while it's hot, he will probably be more restrained. ”

Xiangzi looked at him suspiciously and said, "What's the knock?" ”

County Magistrate Liu smiled at him and said, "Immediately send someone to go to Guangquan with Gouzi and bluff for two days." I think he'll be afraid to show his face for a while. ”

Xiangzi smiled happily and said, "This method is good, I'll take someone there." ”

County Magistrate Liu smiled and waved his hand, and said, "It's not really going to get people, it's just making a noise, that thief baby, I don't know where the cat is." I can't see each other at all, just let the police station send a few people. ”

Shoko still had a look of self-reproach on her face, and turned around and went out dejectedly.

Ma Jiangong is a combination of eating, drinking, prostitution, gambling and smoking. In addition to robbery, rampant in the township, fish and meat people. He often wears a top hat and riding boots, holds a copper wire horsewhip, often goes in and out of the streets, asks for money, slaughters sheep if he wants to eat, and if he neglects, he will come to a great disaster.

In the Nanshan area, farmers have happy events. He led a group of ruffians around the table uninvited. If you don't like it, you will punch and kick it. The victim can only swallow his anger. The host's family also has to set up a banquet to entertain and greet each other with a smile. Otherwise, the wedding night will be a disaster.

Once, a family with a large spring had a happy event. A relative, who came from Dihua to congratulate his family, said a few words after drinking, and was dissatisfied with Ma Jiangong's words. He was beaten by his pawns with horsewhips in turn, and the guests were beaten until their skin was torn apart and covered in blood.

Ma Jiangong was not reconciled, so he pulled the guests into the ditch outside the village and soaked the water into a soup chicken. It was only when the personnel did not wake up that they stopped, and the people were very dissatisfied with it.

Xiangzi came to the police station listlessly and conveyed to Director Zhang the intentions of County Magistrate Liu. Director Zhang stared at Xiangzi with a surprised gaze.

Pretending to be surprised, he said, "Oops! Didn't you listen to your subordinates, you are already in front of the casino, handing over Ma Jiangong? Why don't you let the thief run away? ”

Seeing that Xiangzi had a gloomy face and didn't say anything, he said in a tone again: "Oh, I can escape from your Flying Dragon Hero, it seems that Ma Jiangong is really capable." Oops, you went out in person, and you missed. I'm afraid I'm ...... all those cowards under my hands."

Before he could finish speaking, Shoko waved his hand irritably and said, "You can do it!" What a rambling guy! ”

As he spoke, he went out with a cold face.

Xiangzi understood in his heart that Director Zhang saw that County Magistrate Liu trusted and reused himself very much. It seems to hinder him from lying diligently in front of County Magistrate Liu, and taking the opportunity to ask for credit. For this reason, Director Zhang also made some small stumbling blocks for Xiangzi openly and secretly, and Xiangzi didn't care about him. Fortunately, Director Zhang did not dare to go against it blatantly.

Although there are often some bits and pieces in his mouth, as long as it is arranged by Xiangzi, he does not dare to be sloppy.
