Chapter 78: Brute

"It's already good, today the official plans to kill half of the people and leave half of them to work. Zheng Wenfu used humility to make me unable to find an excuse, but in this way, he would not interfere with his own affairs. Cai Cong said with a smile, he was very satisfied with this result, and he was not a murderer, and it was best not to kill.

"Hehe, I'm afraid I don't know Zheng Wenfu, this person is vicious, he likes to put cold arrows behind his back, and the official is afraid of ......" Gongsun Neng said with a worried face, he didn't know how much he lost because he was too confident.

"It's okay, this person has investigated me, so he doesn't dare to make any small moves behind his back." Cai Cong said confidently.

"Not necessarily, there is nothing they dare not do in Zhengzhou."

"There is nothing in Zhengzhou that the official does not dare to do, he dares to release cold arrows, the official will send troops to level the Zheng family, and the chickens and dogs will not be left." Cai Cong took a sip and said lightly, and Gongsun Neng couldn't help but tremble a little between the words, the Zheng family could be regarded as meeting an arrogant and unreasonable lord this time.

In the night, several soldiers with a handcuffed iron chain and a compass in their hands stood on the hill and continued to look at the place below the mountain after the moonlight. There are many groups of such people, and they all climb up near the gathering place of the people.

"I said you've been watching it for so long, can you see it? is grinding, and a certain family hammers you to death. A soldier said angrily, and the man with the chain was frightened, but he glared at him and said strongly: "You can come, and a certain family will go back to prison and wait for death." ”

"Hmph, a certain family doesn't care about your plan to kill a thousand knives, and quickly find out the water source, which is a great thing to accumulate virtue and can alleviate your sins." The soldier endured the unhappiness and chattered that the tomb robbers picked up people's ancestral graves and disturbed the peace of their ancestors, and it would be a capital crime to be caught, and no one would sympathize with him.

No one dares to guarantee that their ancestral graves will not be stolen, so they hate this kind of person. If it weren't for their skills in finding water, these tomb robbers would have been beaten to death.

"Do you need to be verbose? We are more anxious than you. There, there, there, and the village with its crooked neck and treeside were all written down. The tomb robber said angrily, pointing out a few places for people to write down.

"Is that all there are? Okay, I'll call someone to dig it up right away. The soldier took a notebook and wrote it down, and he was going to call someone to dig a well.

But he was stopped by the tomb robbers, and said like a fool: "What are you doing? I'm telling you to write it down, when the sun comes out tomorrow, you have to look at the earth and the moisture, and who told you that you can tell if there is water at a glance? ”

On this night, there were constant cars and horses inside and outside the city of Zhengzhou, and the earth illuminated by the beautiful and bright moon seemed to be covered with silver veil. Countless people trembled when they heard the sound of carriages and horses, for fear that they were coming for their own family, even Zheng Wenfu woke up several times, stroked his chest and lay down.

When the sky is slightly bright, the villagers of Majiang Village get up early, and at this time, the leaves and bamboo joints are still attached to the dew, and they can be scraped off to give to the children at home.

Chen Fengshi got up earlier than others, and it had been half an hour since she went out, her lips were chapped, and she couldn't help but want to drink the little water at the bottom of the bucket several times.

Every time she comes to her mouth, she restrains herself, she can still insist, she can dig some roots and chew them for a while, but not the children at home. The husband went to ask for water and was beaten to death, the eldest son went upstream to steal water to drink, and was drowned in the water.

There are so many people in this world, and they can't let all the unfortunate things befall their own homes! Thinking of this, she stopped looking at the little bit of water that had just wet the bottom of the bucket, and walked home in a hurry.

Suddenly, she stopped, and many people came down from the tree at the entrance of the village, and many villagers hid. , do those bullies upstream still want to bully people?

Thinking of this, she was filled with righteous indignation, and when she saw that the enemy had burned her reason with anger, she rushed to the entrance of the village and cried out loudly: "What do you beasts still want? The people of our village can only eat the roots of the tree to survive now, do you even have to rob the roots? ”

Someone looked at her in wonder, turned around and squatted on the ground to taste some mud, covered the black cloth and looked at it for a while, then nodded and said, "This is it, dig hard." There will be water under five meters. ”

Chen Fengshi stood in place in a daze, her head buzzing, and the words 'there is water' kept spinning in her mind.

"Are you from Majiang Village? His Majesty the Emperor of Chang'an sent the angel Cai Cong Cai to relieve the disaster, and the feng shui master cut off that there is a water source at the mouth of your village, so you quickly go and call your village chief.

In addition, a few people in your village were killed by big upstream households, you call their relatives here, and Lord Cai ordered a certain family to understand the situation and avenge them. ”

Fang Yuan saw a silly woman at the entrance of the village, and said casually, only to find that the knuckles of the stupid woman's hand holding the wooden barrel had been pinched white, and tears flowed down her face.

Suddenly, she threw the wooden barrel more than ten meters away, bent over and shouted with all her strength: "The emperor has sent an official, we can avenge our grievances!" Woowoo woo ......"

When Fang Yuan saw the woman who was suddenly squatting on the ground crying, he was actually a little overwhelmed, so he could only stop his hand and turn his head to see those craftsmen digging wells.

"Little old man, the village chief of Majiang Village, Xiong Da Niu visited the eldest lord and asked the eldest master to be the master for us." A gray-haired old man ran over and threw himself on his knees, and the other villagers also fell to the ground.

Fang Yuan hurriedly helped the old man up, and said with a smile: "Lord Cai has already put everyone in prison, and a certain family is here to find out about the situation." As for them, they came to dig wells. I wonder where the families of the deceased are? Is there anyone who witnessed the day and can tell us about the day? ”

"Yes, yes. Hurry up and call the people, why don't you rabbits move a few benches, don't you see the adults standing very tired? Feng Chen, you can talk about it first. Xiong Da Niu shouted at the villagers, and at the same time did not forget to turn around and smile at Fang Yuan.

Chen Fengshi immediately knelt on the ground and said that her man went to ask for water, but those people didn't give it, and hit him on the head with a stick, beating him to death, and when he brought it back, his body was soft and his bones were broken.

Fang Yuan listened to the scolding, people are born of human mothers, all have human nature, but these beasts have no humanity at all. He resisted the urge to kill people upstream, and continued to hear her talk about her son, who was thirsty and drank a few sips of river water, only to be discovered by the people upstream, and several men of five years old and three rough men pressed his twelve-year-old son into the water and choked him to death.

Thrown to the entrance of the village, these inhuman brutes also said that your son was thirsty and wanted to drink water, and we gave him a drink.

"Brute, brute! Adults say that great disasters will destroy human nature, but I don't believe it, how can people be so cruel? Brothers, draw a knife and go upstream with a certain family to kill this group of beasts. ”

Fang Yuan shouted with red eyes, pulled out the saber at his waist and was about to leave.

"Old Fang, you stop for me, adults know that your character will be bad, if you want to kill them like this, you can take action? Sit down, wait for the other family members of the deceased and witnesses to come, and ask about the situation of the day, and the adults will naturally not let them go. ”

Xu Jie shouted loudly, Fang Yuan was in charge of questioning, he was in charge of the secretary, and at the same time, he had to look at this group of rough men, if he wasn't there today, the people who couldn't keep the upper reaches would be killed by them.

Adults say that great disasters destroy human nature, but excessive justice and blind anger can also make people lose their minds. Under his angry gaze, Fang Yuan had no choice but to put the knife back into its sheath, gritting his teeth and listening to the villagers crying.

After more than an hour, while digging a well, someone suddenly shouted in surprise: "The water is out, the water is out." ”

Xu Jie was overjoyed, and ran over with a pen stick thrown for a hundred meters, only to see a cool air gushing up from the pit, and the groundwater was soaked in mud and became very turbid.
