Chapter 122: Seeking Asylum
Zhao Dahai is very bored now.
With more than a hundred brothers, riding on horses, listening to the chaotic sound of horses' hooves beating on the cracked dirt road, making a dull echo, everyone was silent, and occasionally the sonorous sound of weapons hitting came out, so that some pole thieves who wanted to disobey the rules and wanted to get some benefits first retracted back to their nests, and honestly waited for the feast of dawn, and did not lose their lives for greed for their own will. Occasionally, there were one or two women's screams in this dead night, and everyone didn't stop, just moving forward so sullenly, and their hearts were infinitely depressed.
Looking at Xicheng, which was lifeless except for the occasional light in the place where the pole was stationed, it was really helpless to think of what his stupid brother Lu Shi said.
This brother is good anywhere, but he is too inexperienced in the city, in this land of appeasement, he actually believes that everyone wants to live an official addiction, what to do in Changjiazheng, but he doesn't know that it is a division of the land of robbery, it is ridiculous to think about it, and even the brother who has passed the sky, he simply treats that Lu Shi as a treasure, and he is obedient to his words until he has no position of his own, and he does not compete with those pickled things, and lets those guys bully Lu Shi I don't understand.
In fact, with the initiative of the Huimeng, the supply army of Zhangjiabao materials, full of clever plans, so that everyone can reduce casualties, and first climb the Mizhi city wall, and so on, it should also be divided into a rich area, but this is good, I got a Xicheng that didn't even have a little oil star, and I was happy to pick up a treasure, really.
Didn't Tianxing tell him Lu Shi about this appeasement? This reckless man is really angry and hateful.
Now I really regret that I didn't want to see the face of those villains, so I didn't attend the meeting, if I was here, I would have to use the knife with the old thief who didn't get dirty, and no one dared to bully us.
Just like this, riding on a horse with a group of brothers, walking aimlessly on the silent streets, looking at the black rice fat, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
There is peace now, but how many dirty things are happening in this darkness? Those people passed the day tremblingly, as if the great tribulation had passed, but they did not know that the real great tribulation was coming. Pity the wishful thinking of the stupid brothers, and pity those giants.
Zhao Dahai is pitiful here, but he doesn't know that he is being calculated by everyone, and everyone wants to kidnap him to blackmail Lu Shi.
Zhao Dahai's listless patrol arrived at the junction of Nancheng and Xicheng, and after a while, he gave up this meaningless patrol, took his brothers to find a good and comfortable place, and slept at the end, where is it necessary to care about your life and death? I'm also very depressed when I come to this point.
At this moment, several black shadows suddenly ran out of the darkness and directly stopped his horse's head. This sudden change can startle Zhao Dahai, could it be that those blind-eyed poles are actually going to attack themselves? At that time, the whole body was on guard with the gun in hand, and several relatives immediately stepped forward, surrounded Zhao Dahai, each with a knife and a gun, and was on full alert in case of accidents.
"Who, don't you know it's curfew? Dare to move around at this time, dare to violate the military regulations of Woniu Mountain, don't you want to die? Zhao Dahai shouted at the few black shadows that suddenly appeared.
Those few people were drunk by Zhao Dahai, and immediately knelt down, raised their hands and said in a trembling voice: "Lord Zhao will do it, Lord Zhao help, Lord Zhao." After that, a few people kowtowed to Zhao Dahai on the street, and the head was knocked loudly.
Zhao Dahai was stunned for a moment, now he is called a king when he meets someone, and it has been a long time since he has been honored as an adult, and this call makes him feel cordial.
At that moment, he relaxed his guard, put away the flower gun, and asked in a low voice: "Who is it, what life is looking for me to save." ”
The few people who were kneeling on the ground kowtowed again and again: "Lord Zhao, we are the servants of the gentry and merchants in this Mizhi City, and we are specially waiting for Lord Zhao to come over here." I beg Lord Zhao to give me a chance to pay respects, and at the same time, please ask Lord Zhao to save my life. ”
As soon as he heard that it was a gentry and a wealthy family, Zhao Dahai was in a spirit, okay, it's a good thing.
Suppressing the joy in his heart, he whispered at that time: "What is it?" Come on, don't delay your family's business. ”
An old man who seemed to be an elderly man tremblingly climbed forward half a step forward and said in a low voice: "The little old man is the lobby shopkeeper of the Deyi Building in front, Lord Zhao, the wind and the road here are cold, it is really not a place to speak, the little master cares about the elegant place to prepare thin wine, and please appreciate the light." ”
Zhao Dahai's personal soldiers immediately got on guard together, go to your den of thieves, don't let these guys hurt their own commander.
But Zhao Dahai doesn't think so, when is it now? The whole county is in the hands of the pole, that is, to lend them great courage, they do not dare to harm themselves, not to mention that the Deyi Building is the largest restaurant in this rice fat, the decoration is gorgeous and elegant, the food is sweet and delicious, there is a special wine, the unique special mutton soup, it is a must in the land of northern Shaanxi, there is no more delicious food than this, in this miserable wind and rain, if there is such a place, it is really a fairy enjoyment.
Looking at these people groveling and risking the curfew to kill their heads, they just wanted to seek personal favors for themselves and avoid the disaster of Tianming, they were too late to scold themselves, where did they dare to harm themselves? What's more, this little thin wine is waiting for appreciation, which is almost a secret word in the officialdom, that is, there is a lot of filial piety after the thin wine, since the stupid brother gave up a lot of appeasement harvest, he can't say that he can get back his old capital here.
The most important thing is that he has been an official for all these years, and he can't be on the stage, so he has prepared a little thin wine for Shangguan, and this time it is his turn to be slightly prepared by others, which is really a bit of a change of mood. What's more, he patrolled the camp in the middle of the night, and he was also dancing with wine insects, so he should drink to satisfy his cravings.
So he waved his hand and said: "Brothers, don't be careful, it's all the fathers and elders who show love, and it doesn't hurt if we eat him for a meal." Then he instructed the more than 150 brothers behind him: "Now a small team is gathering in front of the Deyi Building, and everyone should not shout and make noise." He turned to the few people who were standing at the corner of the street and shivering: "My brother is many, how about asking your shopkeeper to make your specialty sheep soup and steamed buns?" ”
When those few people heard that Zhao Dahai was willing to go with a few people, it was really like seeing the Heavenly God Bodhisattva coming, where was there any refusal, and they agreed in their mouths.
When the brothers of Woniu Mountain saw it, they were very happy and hard in the middle of the night, since the heads of the family said so, everyone was even more happy to eat wine and meat, so everyone gave up the patrol and was led by those people to rush directly to the Deyi Lou Restaurant in the south of the city.
It's also time for the front and back feet, and people who don't get mud and a tiger come to the street to look for Zhao Dahai nervously, but at this time, where is there any trace of Zhao Dahai?
Coming to the largest restaurant in Mizhi, Zhao Dahai ordered the brothers to get off the horse, and made a cautious precaution in the dark shadows, and ordered not to make noise, and then dismounted, habitually beat the dust on his body with a horsewhip, and strode into the restaurant with the two most powerful cronies.
It was dark outside the restaurant, but it turned out that the doors and windows had been tightly guarded, and there was no light out, but as soon as he entered the restaurant, Zhao Dahai was startled.
I saw that the restaurant was already crowded with people, all of them were now gentry and wealthy businessmen in Mizhi, some of whom they knew, and some of whom they did not know, all trembling, no one dared to be a little loud, some children wanted to cry, and they were immediately tightly covered by the adults who were holding them, for fear of making half a sound.
These people originally saw Zhao Dahai, and they had to kowtow from afar to say hello, although Zhao Dahai was also an official at that time, but a post man was really not as good as a good dealer's account.
But now it's different, now that Zhao Dahai has just stepped into the door, those gentry and rich people immediately fell to their knees as if they saw the Buddha, and begged Zhao Dahai again and again to save their lives in their throats.
Zhao Dahai's vanity was greatly satisfied at that time, and he wanted to take advantage of this time to find the guy who was angry with him in the past, but Zhao Dahai was also a straight and righteous person.
There is a table in the lobby, and the table has long been stacked with a lot of delicacies, and a big chair is alone.
Zhao Dahai also understood, and he was not polite, he threw the horsewhip to the table, and sat there with a golden knife, and the other brothers who followed stood behind him with their hands on the handle of the knife, and put on a full posture, but they all stared at the wine and food on the table without moving their eyes.
As soon as Zhao Dahai sat down, two fat guys without human form came up, one poured wine and the other cloth vegetables.
These two are the real heads and faces of this rice fat, one is the president of the Chamber of Commerce, the family runs a pawnshop salt industry, the other is a famous local gentry, and his son is still a big official in a southern province.
Now it's not that I've been fooled by the county order, I haven't been able to escape from the city, and I'm trapped in the city, this time I'm going to die, and the pole hates them the most is the rich people, and at the same time, the most popular is their Wanguan furniture.
I also wanted to walk around without getting mud and so on, but I don't know why, tonight the poles are heavily guarded, and I can't ask to see him at all, seeing that the sky is about to dawn, and a killing that destroys the door is about to begin, everyone thinks of this Zhao Dahai, who used to be an official, hoping to find shelter in him.
So everyone took their families one after another, discarded all their belongings, only brought a limited amount of softness, brought close children, wives and children, bribed the poles and minions from all over the place, and rushed to this place where Xicheng came, and asked Zhao Dahai to protect his personal safety.
Zhao Dahai generously waited for the two representatives to finish their kind words, drained the wine with the same neck, and then went straight to the point and said: "Don't say anything about the void, don't mention the past festivals, I, Zhao Dahai, still have this responsibility, so let's dry it." ”
The gentry leader also put down his former figure, and when time was pressing, he discarded the sycophant, and pleaded with a servile face: "My lord was once a parent, and I also knew that my lord was forced to be helpless to get involved in these things. ”
When he said this, nearly 100 people upstairs and downstairs knelt down together, knocked their heads on a bang, and begged Zhao Dahai to save everyone's lives in the past line.
Zhao Dahai was proud in his heart, so he deliberately groaned.
