Chapter 041: Who Dare!
Qingmo scattered the onlookers, and said to Li Mao with a smile: "Do you recognize who she is, Zhao Er's carpenter's wife, who lives next door to Sister-in-law Wu, can't get along with you must be because of Sister-in-law Wu's matter, I heard that you detained Sister-in-law Wu and didn't let her go, so I hated you." If you want me to say, if you are really interested in Sister-in-law Wu, you simply marry her with three media and nine appointments, and with your identity today, you will not wronged her, how can she not be willing? If she didn't want to, let her sister-in-law go back to her hometown. You neither marry her nor let her go back to your hometown, do you know what those long-mouthed mothers-in-law in the workshop say about you, calling eating from the pot and looking at the bowl, called ill-intentioned. How, you were not surprised that you would be wronged for doing good. ”
Li Mao said with a smile: "Mu Zheng has no parents, his family is poor, and his hometown is both reliable and reliable, and there is no place to stand. She offended her father because she wanted to marry Mu Zheng back then, and she was forbidden to set foot in the house, where did you let her go? I didn't think about marrying her, I kept her in Chengwu County, and Mrs. Tuo found a good match for her. How to spread the rumors and love in the market, let him pass it on, he is not afraid of the shadow, what am I afraid of? Qingmo shook his head, leaned over to pick up the money on the ground, and said, "Having said that, how can everyone make money, but it is necessary to guard against it." Now that you are an official, your reputation is important, some people will not look at whether you are standing upright, they love to see whether your shadow on the ground is slanted or not, and you must be careful that someone will hack you behind this matter. ”
Passing by South Street, a group of beggars gathered around, not for begging, but for their sister "Raf", Qingmo patted the ebony waist card on his waist, and the bluffing beggars scattered. Li Mao raised his eyes and saw that the trees on both sides of the street were already faintly full of beggars with heavy makeup and scratching their heads.
Li Mao sighed and shook his head, Qingmo sighed and said, "It's terrible, if you continue to make trouble like this, Chengwu County will soon be in chaos in the world!" This group of people looks good during the day, and after nightfall, they steal and steal and do all kinds of evil, how many of these girls are abducted by them? During the day, they serve them as cattle and horses in the shack, and at night they recruit the prodigal children here, and they can't look at it, but this is just a pretense, they will steal your belongings while you are in trouble, and you feel ugly and disdain to argue with him, then it is exactly what they want. If you can't reason with him, you just wait, if you don't open your mouth, it's a beating. Last time, I told Feng Tou that they had to drive them out of the city, but no one listened! Instead of listening, he sneered at me, alas...... In response to troubled times, how can a hypocrite be a real villain? ”
Li Mao said with feeling: "Yes, it is indeed extremely inappropriate for so many people to be uncontrolled in the city. He glanced at Qingmo and praised: "They have learned a lot of things with Feng Tou, and it is not easy to say that they are set by set." Qingmo smiled: "I listened to Brother Zhang Xuan's words these words, how can I understand this." Li Mao said: "It's not easy for Zhang Xuan to have such knowledge, the water in Chengwu County is not shallow, and it is necessary to have more eyes when mixing with them." ”
Qingmo said bitterly: "The entire Chengwu County is a big dung tank, messy, it's really not a place for people, Brother Mao, when will you bring your brother, I plan to join the army." Qingmo also said the same thing to Li Mao a month ago, at that time Li Mao's book and farewell had not yet come down, Qingmo said this, Li Mao just said it was fun, but he didn't want to bring up the old things again after a month, so he paid attention to it, and said with a smile: "It's good to join the army, look for life on the tip of the knife, and die for a lifetime, and stay in the yamen to have a future in the future." ”
Qingmo drooped his head, sighed and said: "Da Lang raised me and gave me an errand in the yali, reasoning that I will continue to do a good job, and there will always be a guy who eats in the future, but I am really uncomfortable with this errand, it is difficult to marry a wife to support the family, not to mention, there is no hope for a lifetime of promotion as a official, and it is terrible to see them messed up for a lifetime." ”
Li Mao said: "Since you have this idea, I will keep your mind for you, you should do the errand here first, and more experience will only be good for the future." Qingmo nodded and thanked him, and the two went to a wine shop in the southeast of the city, ordered a few dishes, ate and drank, and unconsciously the sky was dark, Qingmo was drunk, shouting to settle the bill, but the shopkeeper brought an account book, nodded and said: "Xiao Langjun can sign here, and at the end of the year, the small shop and the yamen will settle together." Qingmo patted his chest and said: "Hugh wants to see me, I don't go all the way with those who eat and drink for nothing, I pay when I have money, and I will pay later if I don't have money." "I searched all over my body, but I found only seven coppers. Li Mao gave a bunch of money to the shopkeeper.
Qingmo was not polite to Li Mao, the two came out and were walking along the street, Leng Buding heard a noise in front of him, but saw four strong men wielding bright machetes to chase and kill a pair of men and women, the man was dressed in a round-necked green shirt, dressed like a scholar, and the woman was dressed gorgeously, and the hair bun on her head and the clothes on her body were not in the Central Plains style.
Li Mao drank and ordered Qingmo to step aside, let the pair of men and women, stand up in the middle of the street, stretched out his hand and made a stop posture, but the four people did not have the slightest intention of stopping, the four machetes could not be separated, and Li Mao cut the door in front of him. Li Mao kicked his leg first, hit the ground with a muffled sound, kicked the frontal enemy out of the distance, somersaulted a heel, and fell heavily on the bluestone slab. When the other three saw Li Mao move, they didn't say a word, and slashed with their knives. Li Mao's footsteps were slanted, he stepped back to the side, gave up a knife, and slammed his elbow into Yihan's temple, knocking Nahan unconscious with only one elbow.
Between the lightning and the fire, the second knife has been chopped again, the silver arc flashed, and the sharp cry of the blade sounded in Li Mao's ears, it was too late to dodge at this moment, Li Mao immediately decided, the saber in his waist choked out of the sheath, and slashed towards the machete.
With a choking sound, sparks burst out, the machete flew out diagonally, and Li Mao's saber happened to be on the man's neck. The third man's knife had been cut out, and seeing that his companion was being restrained, he retracted the attack stubbornly, and his body stagnated and stayed in the local area.
"Stop!" Someone shouted, and more than 20 strong men with short knives rushed over like dragons and surrounded Li Mao, the first person was the black-bearded middle-aged man who relieved Li Mao in the afternoon. The man also recognized Li Mao, was slightly taken aback, waved his hand, and ordered everyone to put down their knives.
"Put it down, put it down, put it down for me, stand there for me and don't move!" Qingmo saw that something was wrong, and quickly took off the ebony card on his waist to reveal his identity.
Blackbeard frowned slightly when he saw that he was a fast hand.
Li Mao looked at a pair of men and women hiding behind him and asked Blackbeard, "Why do you want to kill people in the street?" ”
"We didn't kill anyone, it was this person who intended to kidnap my daughter, and we came to rescue my daughter." Blackbeard spoke in a strange tone, with a round and flat face, and at a glance he knew that he was not from Middle-earth.
"I didn't kidnap his daughter, she is not the daughter of Moqishu, her name is Yang Yu, she is originally from Jiangzhou, she was abducted by them at the age of four, please Shangguan Mingcha." The scholar-like young man argued loudly, his hand gripping the girl's hand tightly. Li Mao glanced at the girl, her eyebrows were clear and her eyes were delicate, and her appearance was delicate, which was definitely different from these Moqi people with big disc faces.
"This person is talking nonsense, he is a liar, a big liar who abducted my daughter, please ask the big man to be the master of the small people."
The three words "big master" were very harsh to Li Mao's ears, he sneered, and said: "You say that the public is reasonable, and the mother says that the mother is reasonable, I am difficult to distinguish, why don't you all go to the county government with me, and the county will judge it?" Qingmo shouted: "When there is a fight on the street, this, the reasoning should be arrested first, interrogated and understood, and the right and wrong should be distinguished, and then released, that you, you, and you, come with us." Qingmo took out the three leather ropes hanging from his waist and prepared to tie people.
Blackbeard's Moshu suddenly chanted aloud: "'Confucius Yun: If Yidi enters Huaxia, it will be Huaxia. Huaxia enters Yidi, it is Yidi! Emperor Taizong said: Since ancient times, the world has been heavy on China and cheap, and I love it as one. 'The admonitions of Confucian Confucius and Emperor Taizong of our dynasty are still in my ears, how can you disobey them? ”
As soon as he opened his mouth, someone next to him immediately raised his arms and shouted in a circle: "It's terrible, the officials of the Tang Dynasty don't follow the teachings of the saints, don't respect the teachings of Taizong, and bully us outsiders on the street!" This is a rebellion. Look! The people of the government actually harbored the murderers who abducted and trafficked our people! Oh my God, what a dark world this is! Everyone comes to comment on this reason, the government is shielding the murderer of human trafficking! ”
At this shout, the twenty or so sturdy men also clamoured, and someone tried to take advantage of the chaos to capture the girl, Li Mao flipped his wrist, and the blade "sizzled" on the man's neck, and shouted: "Who dare!" ”
