Chapter 597: Compensation and Accountability
The outspoken Song Pujia's words immediately caused a large number of teenagers to laugh together. Among them, the one who laughed the loudest was none other than Yue Qianqiu. The corners of Yan Xu's mouth twitched, his face darkened, and he immediately realized that no matter if Su Shiqi was the admirer of the Iron Hammer Sea Thirteen back then, now he was the wife who gave birth to three big fat sons for himself, and he immediately became calm.
He's not the kind of husband who drinks dry vinegar...... Well, when I get home, I'll ask my daughter-in-law if there's such a thing! If it's Song Pujia's little girl talking nonsense, he has to make her look good!
In contrast, Liu Guofeng, who sat on the ground with a gray face, did not pay much attention. His hands and ten fingers slashed at the ground, almost sinking deep into the mud, and the fighting spirit of desperate survival had been completely replaced by regret and unwillingness at this time.
As a former disciple of the head of Tianqiao Pavilion, his swordsmanship and body skills are not as good as the attainments in traps, at this time, this serious injury, and then the loss of the hostages he is holding, how can he not know that it is impossible to escape today?
If among the people who came to pursue him this time, there were no Tianqiao Pavilion's two talented disciples who had been pressed by him all the time; If it weren't for the fact that when those teachers were teaching him, it was obvious that they were hiding their secrets; If it weren't for Xiao Jingjing, he wouldn't have died, but he would have been suspicious; Then, he will definitely succeed in capturing Dai Zhanning alive, and there will be a lot of room for manoeuvre at that time.
But the most infuriating thing is that he chose the wrong person to hold hostage!
And after Yue Qianqiu's first laugh, he didn't look at Liu Guofeng when he was in a relaxed mood, and smiled and arched his hand to Mr. Hai, who called himself Hai Thirteen, and said: "I was thinking about whether to take the risk just now, but when I saw Mr. Hai suddenly take out a small hammer, I decided to wait and see first, I didn't expect you to bring such a big surprise to everyone." ”
Mr. Hai couldn't help but quip: "Jiu Gongzi never thought that my little hammer is like a toy, and it is just a joke when you take it out?" ”
"I just think that what people take out to save the scene in a critical moment is generally unlikely to be useless waste. Especially a wise man like Mr. Hai, even Liu Guofeng did not hesitate to hold him hostage in order to get out. Yue Qianqiu said with a smile, "For example, since I got out of the hands of the Beiyan secret spies with those endless gadgets, I have always carried those things with me in case of emergency, which is the same reason." ”
Yan Xu only felt the corners of his mouth twitch when he listened. You're already a little master, and you always bring those messy gadgets to run the rivers and lakes, is it nice to say?
It was only at this time that Xiao Jingjing suddenly woke up with a thrill. Before Mr. Hai could answer, she rushed forward, and when she was in front of Mr. Hai, she grabbed his sleeve violently, her eyes were fixed on his neck, which still had a bloody stain, but between the squirming of her lips, she was stunned and unable to say a word.
Xiao Qingqing has been busy with all kinds of affairs over the years, enlightening her daughter to read and other things, but Mr. Hai has done most of it. At this time, thinking of the rumor of "stabbing his throat and committing suicide" that even he was shocked and angry at the beginning, and seeing the little girl's eyes gradually red, it was obvious that he was holding back countless grievances and sadness in his heart, Mr. Hai couldn't help but sigh, reached out and touched Xiao Jingjing's head.
Immediately after, he slowly turned to look at Yan Xu, and said solemnly: "Master Yan, the robbery and killing of you and the disciples of the Xuandao Hall is indeed a warrant from the palace master, as for Liu Guofeng later, on the grounds that the young palace master committed suicide by stabbing his throat, and the court can no longer tolerate the Red Moon Palace, let everyone go all out, and be sure to take down Dai Zhanning, that is also because I was gullible in the first place." Dai Gongzi and the others were injured a lot because they had been robbed and killed, and I will bear all the responsibility, hoping to be able to leave the others in the Red Moon Palace lightly! ”
As he spoke, he sat down cross-legged, and threw down the small hammer, which was as delicate as a toy, and put his hands on his knees, as if he were tied. Seeing his scene, Xiao Jingjing suddenly came to her senses, and quickly opened her arms to block him for a while, and when she saw Yue Qianqiu's smiling expression, she blushed even more.
"If you want to say something wrong, it's my mother's fault, it's my fault, it has nothing to do with Uncle Hai, no one knew he knew martial arts before! If you want to be responsible, I am also responsible, and it is not Uncle Hai's turn! ”
Hai 13 and Xiao Jingjing asked for responsibility one after another, and the martial artists in the Red Moon Palace who dropped their weapons looked at each other for a while. Not everyone saw the young palace master appear, so they woke up, and many people realized that the general trend had gone, so they wanted to draw a line with Liu Guofeng by dropping their weapons, so they passed the test in confusion. So, the next two reactions of these people suddenly appeared.
Most of them weighed up and adopted the same strategy as Hai Thirteen, sitting down cross-legged. Regardless of whether this confession of sin or confession of fate is sincere, at least the attitude has been made clear. Someone even shouted in a voice far greater than muttering while sitting down: "No need for Mr. Hai and the young palace master to suffer, I slashed someone, and it's a big deal that someone will also cut me!" ”
In this way, the remaining two or three people who were still standing, as well as the few outlaws recruited by Liu Guofeng who had not put down their weapons until this moment, stood out like chickens and were extremely conspicuous.
By the time they realized this, they had already noticed that several figures were rushing towards them. Especially those few murderers who were regarded as stubborn murderers with weapons in their hands, they were even more fortunate to experience what it was like for Yan Xu and Zhou Jiyue to make a joint move.
In just a few breaths, these hesitant or unwilling to disarm were already thrown to the ground. And at this time, Yue Qianqiu, who didn't grab the opportunity to make a move at all, coughed angrily and said: "The murderer is dead, this time the most fortunate thing is that no one died, and the matter did not reach the government, except for the emperor, not many people in the court know, and it can barely be counted in the martial arts private fight." ”
"But!" Yue Qianqiu suddenly changed his words and said word by word, "Senior Brother Dai, Senior Brother Liu and their relatives escaped death, but this is obvious to all. Those who hurt others are guilty, those who don't admit their mistakes and don't admit their guilt just now, and even hold weapons and want to resist stubbornly, no matter what the fate is in the future, it is all your own fault! ”
"As for all of you who sit down, there should be some of you who have also injured Liu Dai's two junior brothers and their own soldiers before, I heard what you just heard that you slashed others, and let others slash you too. I don't think that's what it means to be a tooth for a tooth or an eye for an eye. Senior Sister Song, I bother you to go out and give Senior Brother Dai and them a look at their injuries, and then estimate a general medical bill. ”
Seeing that Song Pujia was stunned for a moment before agreeing, the corners of Yue Qianqiu's mouth curled, and she said with a smile: "The cost of soup and medicine, the cost of lost work, and the compensation for mental damages, these three items will be compensated by the Red Moon Palace." Don't get me wrong, I'm not in the eye of money, Senior Brother Dai and Senior Brother Liu are not short of money, and I am not short of money, so I don't accept monetary compensation, only human compensation. ”
He snapped his fingers and said with a calm expression: "Now that it's the New Year, the person who was injured by you can't take care of the family anymore, and you have to turn around for others to take care of him, shouldn't you contribute?" ”
"The ancestor worship in their family has also been delayed, of course you can't worship the ancestors on their behalf, but should you help clean and renovate the ancestral hall?"
"If someone has a leg and foot injury and is not good at walking, he will not get better in ten days and half a month, but whoever has done it, should he push the wheelchair on weekdays, and carry him over where the wheelchair is impassable?"
Seeing that there were many dumbfounded faces in front of him, Yue Qianqiu shrugged his shoulders and said: "Of course I'm not a good person, but for the sake of many people being deceived by Liu Guofeng, I give you a chance to mend your ways." You know, if it weren't for you, they should have been happy at home at this time, and you should be glad that no one died, otherwise it wouldn't be so cheap! ”
Live a new life? It's better to kill them!
However, a large group of people who have been in the muddy rivers and lakes for most of their lives only feel numb in their scalps at this time, and even think that it is better to be guilty, go to prison, or be stabbed back by others, but in the eyes of Xiao Jingjing, who is still innocent in the end, what Yue Qianqiu said is much better than the bad results she had imagined when she agreed to his request before.
So, without thinking, she said yes, "Okay, I promise you!" I'm going to take care of the wounded! ”
When Dai Zhanning thought of the three pro-soldiers who were covered in bruises, he originally heard that Yue Qianqiu wanted to reconcile easily with others, as long as people were willing to lose money, and he felt resentful in his heart, but when he heard Yue Qianqiu say that he should not lose money but manpower, he gradually tasted it. But even so, when he heard Xiao Jingjing agree to this, he couldn't help but open his mouth slightly.
Xiao Jingjing, this little girl, said that she was the young palace master of the Red Moon Palace, but in fact, everything was kept in the dark, and she didn't expect a sense of responsibility...... Or that the competitive spirit is still so strong! Does she take care of people?
And Hai 13 also wanted to stop it too late. He pressed his temples with a little headache, and then said with a wry smile: "I think that when I was plotted to almost die on the street, when I was the most depressed, it was the palace master who brought me back, and these twenty years of quiet life are also thanks to the palace master, and the young palace master has agreed, what else do I have to say?" I'll lay down my life with you! ”
As soon as he heard this, Yue Qianqiu laughed; Mr. Hai was serious. If you hurt people, take care of the injured, and if you don't hurt people, the responsibility is lighter, then you just pay for manpower, how can you sacrifice your life to accompany you? For example, if you give Senior Brother Dai, Senior Brother Liu, and their relatives and soldiers, Spring Festival couplets to each family, audit the family's account books for them, and calculate the expenses, this is also to make up for the crime! ”
Zhou Jiyue finally couldn't help laughing, secretly thinking that Yue Qianqiu had never changed for so many years, and she was able to come up with such an unbelievable method of compensation for hurting people. So, seeing that Xiao Jingjing and Mr. Hai agreed one after another, and the others were either weak or depressed, she couldn't help but let go of the murderer she had just captured, and then asked.
"Qianqiu, what about these people?"
"These ...... Hehe. Yue Qianqiu smiled meaninglessly, and said word by word, "Of course, after bringing it back to Jinling, throw it to the relevant people such as the Wu De Division or the Chief Arrest Division, and ask them if they have any crimes in the past!" You must know that things gather by like, people by groups, and follow Liu Guofeng almost all the way to the black, what good things can be? ”
Yan Xu was not surprised at all by Yue Qianqiu's endless ghost ideas, at this time, he stepped on the head of an unlucky guy who dared to wave a knife at him just now, clasped his hands, glanced at Liu Guofeng, who had an extremely ugly face, and asked coldly: "Qianqiu, haven't you forgotten someone?" ”
"Huh?" Yue Qianqiu followed Yan Xu's gaze, and then as if he had just thought that there was a person missing, he patted his head vigorously, and then beckoned to the two Tianqiao Pavilion disciples with a smile, "The traitorous disciples of Tianqiao Pavilion have found it, do you want me to send someone to help the two junior disciples send people back together and give the criminal pavilion master a look?" ”
Just along the way, the two young disciples of Tianqiao Pavilion, Qian Wuyi and Zhao Qingqing, made the most efforts in avoiding and even traps and mechanisms, even so, when they found out that Liu Guofeng was actually insidious and vicious to the point of making people smack, thinking that they were still the head disciples of Tianqiao Pavilion in the past, and they would almost become candidates for the next head of the house, the two of them still felt extremely embarrassed.
Therefore, Yue Qianqiu so boldly agreed to give people to them for disposal, instead of handing them over to Wu Desi or the Chief Capture Division, they were naturally overjoyed. There was no need to discuss at all, and the two of them shouted in unison: "Thank you, Senior Brother Yue!" ”
Yue Qianqiu smiled and returned the salute: "You're welcome, you're welcome, everyone is a family!" ”
The little monkey who had been acting as a scout all the way couldn't help but grin. Well, nowadays, there are a lot of people who call Yue Qianqiu Jiugongzi, there are also many people who call Senior Brother Yue, and there are even more people who call Senior Brother Yue, but it seems that it is really rare to call Yue Jiu Brother like himself. Qing Yu Nian would have had a chance, but who made him older than Yue Qianqiu?
Therefore, there are still advantages to being young, there are so many people in the Wuying Pavilion, it is really rare to be younger than Yue Qianqiu!
Although he was seriously injured by Mr. Hai just now, Liu Guofeng still held on to a bit of luck, only thinking that what he knew was valuable, no matter whether Yue Qianqiu wanted to pry his mouth open by torture or something, he always had a chance to fight for a way to live. But he never expected that Yue Qianqiu would casually lose it to Tianqiao Pavilion as if he was a person who was not important at all!
Thinking of Tianqiao Pavilion announcing his betrayal so easily, thinking of his peers who had stepped on him over the years, and thinking of many elders of the sect who had also been offended by the spring breeze, his face couldn't help but change violently. Especially when he thought of the lynching of the traitorous disciples in the sect, he only felt that his scalp was numb, and his heart was completely cold.
In the Tianqiao Pavilion, which is good at tricks, those torture tools can definitely make him survive and not die!
He took a deep breath and burst into a loud breath: "Yue Qianqiu, Tianqiao Pavilion is not a good thing, they have a private torture room, and I don't know how many bones are buried in the lotus pond in the mountain gate...... Not! ”
Before Liu Guofeng could finish speaking, Yue Qianqiu rose into the air like a big bird, and hit him with a volley of punches, instantly smashing into his chest. Seeing that the person fainted on his back, Yue Qianqiu, who landed steadily, blew his fist, then glanced around at everyone with a smile, and then said lightly: "This kind of thing is a private torture hall, I hope all families can pay attention to it in the future, well, it is better to learn more from our Xuandao Hall." The Xuandao Hall on the Stone Mountain has always been available for people to visit at any time, and there has never been such a thing as a torture hall. ”
"Our martial arts disciples, we must keep pace with the times and teach the law, otherwise, the martial arts record of the imperial court can be rebuilt last year, and it will still be able to be rebuilt in the future! Just like every family has a family law, the elders can punish the younger ones for kneeling down and starving and beating the board, but if they kill people, they can't get away with the crime! ”
"Don't forget, everyone recruited by the various sects is documented by the imperial court! Don't forget that it's not impossible to bring orphans back to be disciples, but if the number of violations such as not reporting household registration is greater than three times, it will be demoted, and if it is more than five times, it will be removed! ”
