Chapter 141: Worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth
Li Guolou sprinted for 400 meters, running on the slippery bluestone street, the woman was pregnant with the hero's grave, at this time Li Guolou deeply realized that what he said was true, and a night of sleepless made him run out of breath. He gritted his teeth and kept running, although his speed slowed down, but the beating heart grew faster and faster. Time is life, and five crisp gunshots rang out in the sky, each shot may have a heart stop beating, and the rain has been falling, pouring through Li Guolou's whole body, to extinguish his mercenary ambition of greedy for money and lust, and reawaken the ideal in his heart.
For the sake of ideals, you can do whatever it takes to grovel, but you can't extricate yourself from it, and you should still have a basic moral concept when you are a person. Li Guolou thought about why he wanted to do fast catching, and his heart was full of anger.
Three horses rushed out of the carriage shop, and Li Guolou stepped over the horse and raised the musket in his hand.
The three masked men on the horse also saw Li Guolou's actions, and the three guns in their hands pointed at Li Guolou together.
The two sides only looked at each other for a moment, and the horse's electric switch slid past Li Guolou's side, and the two sides pulled the trigger, and two clouds of smoke rose in the air, and two gunshots "bumped".
The guns of Li Guolou and one of the robbers went off, and the guns in the hands of the other two robbers were just for show, and there was no gunpowder in them.
The smoke was filled with Li Guolou's eyes closed, he didn't know the result, life and death were only decided in an instant. It's a gamble on luck, the scales of the goddess of victory Athena tilt, where does it fall this time?
One of the robbers fell from his horse, and a box fell from his hand. Li Guolou rushed forward, trying to grab the galloping horse and chase the other two robbers. But the empty horses were frightened and rushed forward. The fallen robber was still in his pedal and was pulled away by the horse, and before the horse had gone two steps the robber was entangled by a tree on the side of the road. The horse neighed and screamed, as if it was holding grievances for its master, and the horse kept jumping up, kicking its two front hooves in mid-air, just waiting for Li Guolou to come up and die.
The other two robbers hesitated slightly, grabbed the reins of the horse, and wanted to settle accounts with Li Guolou. An old voice shouted, "Go!" ”
The two robbers were gone, and on the slippery street, the two robbers manipulated the two horses and disappeared around the corner of the street.
Li Guolou opened his mouth wide and watched the two robbers go away, even if he rode on a horse, he couldn't catch up with the robbers. He doesn't have the ability to gallop on horseback, he can ride a horse and be good at riding a horse are two concepts, galloping on a slippery street, Li Guolou will break his hands and feet if he doesn't fall to death. He gave up the idea of chasing the robbers, thinking that the hero would see his own limits.
The silver ingots scattered on the street were picked up by Li Guolou one by one and put them back into the broken box. For the sake of these silver robbers to kill and rob, people on the street will rush over to rob them, but saving people is the second thing. Li Guolou saw that the escaped robbers also had a box on their horses, this time the robbers robbed half of the silver, and it was worth it to kill a person? Li Guolou felt worthless for the robbers, so he gave away his life for fifty or sixty catties of silver, and a life was only worth eight hundred taels of silver, which was too little.
(Qing Dynasty: One catty is equal to sixteen taels, so there is a saying that half a catty is eight taels.) )
Li Guolou put the robber's gun into the box, and then ran to the horse in front, whispering to comfort the frightened horse, the horse that did not run Li Guolou could still control it, and the horse stopped neighing and jumping after a while.
Li Guolou tied the frightened horse to the plane tree, and the masked robber hugged the plane tree in a strange position. Li Guolou put the dead robber flat on the ground, and the people around him slowly gathered to watch, and some people looked at the box in Li Guolou's waist and crotch, and the people around him talked about it, and in hindsight, they saw what happened on the street clearly, and no one dared to intercept the robbers.
Li Guolou opened the face towel of the deceased, and a familiar eye jumped, Li Guolou shed tears, and his heart was filled with bitterness. I knew that "Huoyun Foot" Gu Li wanted to be a robber, and what did he care. The scene of the fight with Gu Litu in the Beihai Martial Arts Hall is vivid, at that time, they added fists and feet, hand-to-hand duels, and neither left room for the other party, but they cherished each other as confidants. Li Guolou still remembers the kick that Gu Litu gave him in the waist and eyes, Gu Litu was a ruthless man and had no mercy on his subordinates, so he put a stinky skin plaster on him for a week.
At the moment when he fired the gun just now, Li Guolou saw that Gu Litu hesitated, Gu Litu did not shoot first, and the muzzle of the gun was not pointed at him. It turned out that Gulitu remembered his friend. And he buried an old friend with his own hands, the people of the rivers and lakes talked about the love of the rivers and lakes, and one day the people of the rivers and lakes died on the rivers and lakes.
The dart game has come to the end of the road, there is no tomorrow, the dart game in order to survive even its own patrons also killed, with killing to arouse people's desire for the dart game, just to drag the pace of history. The old industry awakens not conscience, but bloody violence.
"Mike, why are you crying?" Yelia Wood held a flower umbrella and said in English next to her.
"Nope! It's the rain that gets into my eyes. Li Guolou closed the deceased's eyes with his hand.
How could Yelia not see the truth of the tears, and said suspiciously: "Mike, do you know the robbers?" ”
Li Guolou stood up, pretending to be smiling and said, "Yelia, how can I know the robbers, go!" Shall I go to Ma Kee Dealership? You'd better go back to the carriage. ”
Yelia said coquettishly: "No, I want to stand by the big hero and let the world know that I have found a big hero as a boyfriend." ”
Li Guolou glanced down at Gu Litu on the street, and let go of a burden in his heart, people still have to look forward, since Gu Litu is also a nameless robber. In Jingshi, Gulitu is still a person with a legitimate profession, but he has disappeared from the world forever. He doesn't need to worry about the dead, he just needs to do his duty for the living.
Li Guolou said: "Yelia, there may be a lot of blood in the Ma Ji car dealership, aren't you afraid?" ”
Elijah said proudly: "Our French ancestors ate the Romans, so how can we be afraid of the dead?" ”
Li Guolou asked one of the loudest people to maintain order, and walked into the Ma Kee car shop with three Frenchmen. There was already a cry inside, the coachman Liu Mingcheng was crying with one of his companions, they were eating and laughing together just now, but now they were separated by two days.
Next to the carriage, one of the dart masters had fallen face down in the mud and had been shot to death, and the other had been slashed with a knife and sat on the steps drenched in blood.
Li Guolou glanced at the dart master Duan Muchun, nodded slightly, and told Duan Muchun implicitly that he knew what was going on, and he had nothing to say to the injured Duan Muchun.
A total of three people died in the car dealership, the businessman Zhang Yaozu, a car dealer who worked here, and a guard guard. There were three people injured, with the dart master Duan Muchun being the most seriously injured, and the other two guys in the car dealership only suffered skin injuries. Li Guolou's waist card was very effective, and the people around him obeyed Li Guolou's command, rescued the wounded, and carried out the dead bodies in the carriage. Li Guolou searched out Zhang Yaozu's text disc from the dead businessman, opened it and saw that it was from Tianjin, and carefully searched Zhang Yaozu's body, with more than a dozen taels of broken silver on his body, a string of copper coins in his waist pocket, a jade pendant around his waist and a pendant around his neck, a string of agate prayer beads on his wrist, and two jade wrenches on his hands.
Li Guolou put all these miscellaneous items in his leather bag, except for the paper disc and the box of silver, he would hand over the fast catch here, and he would not hand over the broken silver and jade pendant. The rules in the yamen, these ornaments and broken silver, the people in the yamen will be corrupt. The whole box of silver ingots, the people in the yamen did not dare to embezzle, but adopted the method of commissioning, and it was an ironclad rule that one out of ten was drawn.
Yelia looked at Li Guolou's actions, with a strange expression on his face, as if saying that dead people's things should also be corrupted, Mike, you are too talented.
Li Guolou took the cane held by the deceased Zhang Yaozu in his hand, and began to command on the spot, waiting for the arrest here to arrive, he could only look at Li Guolou's eyes.
After Li Guolou introduced the matter here to the head catcher, he handed the silver box to the local governor, and said with a glance: "Su Zhutou, I have already ordered it, and you must also talk about the rules when you get rich." I will go to the deceased's house, everything will be according to the rules, I won't say much about other things, everyone knows it. ”
Su Zhutou took the silver box and sighed: "Hey, how can I explain so many people who have died?" Li Zhutou, everyone is your own people, you have to understand our suffering, the people in the town office want to impose the blame on me, Li Zhutou, do you want to watch my brother and me die? ”
Three people died in Ma Ji's car dealership, and the governor who maintained local security could not escape his involvement, and Su Zhutou would be dismissed on the spot if he didn't get it right, and he also needed to deal with the chief above.
The world is as black as a crow, Li Guolou himself is also fast, so he can only help his own people, and said helplessly: "Su Zhutou, you open the lowest price, so that I and the people of the Zhang family will not be able to goof." ”
Su Zhutou checked the weight of the silver box, and said with a smile: "Since Li Zhutou doesn't want anything, I will also be generous, just forty percent." ”
Li Guolou nodded and said, "Deal!" Su Zhutou hopes that you will be true to your word, and I will mention this matter to Master Bao. Got it? "Tell Su Zhutou plainly, write a report indiscriminately, and hand it over, Li Guolou will want Su Zhutou to look good.
Su Zhutou was dissatisfied: "Li Zhutou, how can my brother not follow the rules? ”
Li Guolou glared and said, "Count you ruthless!" ”
Su Zhutou touched his beard and said, "Li Zhutou, since you are your own brother, come back from Tianjin and live in the town office, how about the treatment of your third-grade officials." ”
Li Guolou asked: "Su Zhutou, don't charge money?" ”
Su Zhutou also glared, and said angrily: "Li Zhutou, don't you look down on me?" I won't report the public account. ”
Li Guolou smiled and said, "Thank you!" The younger brother will learn more from Su Zhutou in the future. ”
Su Zhutou sighed: "You, you have been brainwashed by the chief, you are too young and still want to be good with the breeze on your sleeves, if I come here first, I will give the family of the deceased ten silver ingots worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth." ”
Li Guolou's face turned red, isn't he no different from Su Zhutou, he just embezzled some money, and he actually concealed the truth and let the murderer of the robbery go. Just because he knew these robbers, the senior brothers of the Nantian Dart Bureau added a master "Nan Batian" Nanyun Mountain, and the guards acted as double reeds. also killed his fellow brothers, just to play the trick more realistically. The deceased "Huoyun Foot" Gu Litu did not fire the last shot at him, and he wanted to return this love to "Nan Batian" Nanyun Mountain.
