Chapter 41: The Luogang Bandits
Lao Zhuang and Zheng Sike were frightened by Song Wenjian's actions, and when they were about to stop Song Wenjian, Song Wenjian shouted with a straight face: "Do you look at the blood on Guanhai's arm that is still flowing?" ”
"Oh, Lord Guanhai, the bleeding on your arm has stopped." Lao Zhuang is strangely authentic.
Wu Guanhai looked at his arm in surprise and found that it was no longer bleeding as Lao Zhuang said.
What's going on, does the young master really have two brushes?
Song Wenjian continued to use silver needles to pierce Wu Guanhai's body, and for a moment, Wu Guanhai had more than a dozen silver needles on his body.
"Young master, I'm really fine?" Wu Guanhai asked with palpitations.
"It's going to be fine, you lie down, and we'll go after a cup of tea." Song Wenjian turned his head to look at the gangsters lying on the ground. "Lao Zhuang, Sike, who are they in your inventory?"
Lao Zhuang and they checked and found that only four were alive, and the others were all killed by them.
Only then did they remember that they had killed someone, and they were afraid.
Especially Zheng Sike, he shouted in a panic: "Young master, I killed someone, I killed someone, how can I be good?" ”
"Sike, what are you afraid of? They want to kill us, we are just defending ourselves, they are innocent of death. Song Wenjian was also a little strange in his heart, but he still comforted Zheng Sike and Lao Zhuang.
Wu Guanhai said disapprovingly: "What are you afraid of? Killing this thing, once raw and twice cooked, just meet more. Lao Zhuang, you tie up the five living gangsters and send them to the yamen for interrogation in a while. ”
But Song Wenjian shook his head when he heard it and said: "No, our carriage can't fit so many people, so break the tendons of those four gangsters, leave them here, and then let the yacha come over to detain people." ”
Wu Guanhai is right to think about it, the three masters fled, who knows if he will bring his comrades over to seek revenge again?
It is not an exaggeration for these gangsters to kill them, and it is not an exaggeration to break each other's hamstrings.
Lao Zhuang and Zheng Sike broke the hamstrings of the gangsters, pulled the carriage back, and got into the car one after another.
When he arrived at the city gate, Wu Guanhai took the official document and asked the soldiers to open the wall gate.
When the soldiers heard that there were gangsters killing officials on the outskirts of the city, they hurriedly opened the wall door.
Beating drums in the middle of the night, Li Rujun ran out in a hurry, and after learning about the situation outside the city, Li Rujun hurriedly ordered Tiedao to lead people to arrest the gangsters.
The official messenger was hunted down, and no matter how high or low the official position was, Li Rujun had to maintain the dignity of the official messenger. Otherwise, who will dare to be an official in the future, and who will dare to follow him to do things?
Chen Huatao left the yamen and went home with a gloomy face after listening to what had happened.
Chen saw Chen Huatao come back and hurriedly greeted him. "Sir, things are not good. Just now I received a big black flying pigeon message, and they missed. Because they have lost a dozen or so men, they will not return us the honorarium of the thousand taels of silver. ”
"I know, you have someone send another message to Mo Weibao now, so that he can get ready." Chen Huatao was furious, and his heart was so distressed, it was a thousand taels of silver.
Those bandits in Luogang Mountain are really useless, in vain he usually values them so much.
"Yes, sir." Chen Chang listened to Chen Huatao's words and left in a hurry.
Lao Zhuang and Zheng Sike were only slightly injured, Wu Guanhai shed a lot of blood, and Song Wenjian prescribed medicine for him to go back to recuperate.
Wu Guanhai and others were too feudal and superstitious, believing that the things of the dead could not be taken.
But Song Wenjian couldn't manage so much, and secretly turned out dozens of taels of silver on the bodies of those gangsters. Just now I gave Wu Guanhai ten taels of silver, and Lao Zhuang and Zheng Sike each five taels, which is their reward tonight.
If you want the horse to run, you have to feed the horse grass, and this money cannot be saved, otherwise no one will die for him in the future.
Sure enough, Wu Guanhai and the others went back with smiles on their faces.
Returning to the county seat is considered to be settled, and tomorrow Mo Weibao will not be able to eat and walk around.
When Song Wenjian returned home, he found Liang Xing sitting in the courtyard, and when he saw him coming back, he hurriedly stood up and said, "Young master, the master asked me to wait for you here, and said that you would wake him up when you came back." ”
Liang Xing ran into the inner room, and a figure flashed out of the side room, it was actually Mo Xintong.
"You haven't slept all this night?" Song Wenjian looked at Mo Xintong strangely.
"I heard that you went to Yangqing Township in the middle of the night to run errands for my lord, and I was so worried that I couldn't sleep." Mo Xintong saw that there was blood on Song Wenjian's body, and his face showed horror.
At this time, Liang Xing ran out and said to Song Wenjian: "Young master, the master told you to go in." ”
"Okay." Song Wenjian didn't care about talking to Mo Xintong, and hurriedly ran into the back room.
When Song Hua heard about tonight's incident, he was surprised: "I really didn't expect Chen Huatao and them to be mad and dare to ask the bandits to kill you." ”
"Alas, they're jumping over the wall right now, and they're going to do everything." Song Wenjian said: "Dad, tomorrow you will sue Mo Weibao for another crime, buying a homicide official." ”
"Ah, Wen Jian, there's no evidence for this?" Song Hua Dao.
"Let's sue first, anyway, we just offended Mo Weibao and came out of Yangqing Township, so let Mo Weibao carry this black pot first." Song Wenjian said coldly.
He also knew that Mo Weibao didn't have the courage to kill the official, but Chen Huatao's words would be difficult to say.
After Song Wenjian and Song Hua discussed the matter, they returned to their room and saw Mo Xintong sitting on a chair and Xiaoqing standing behind her.
"I've asked Xiaoqing to boil water and prepare clothes, you go take a bath." Mo Xintong said.
"Yes." Song Wenjian glanced at Mo Xintong and felt that she was becoming more and more like his mother, but unfortunately there was something wrong with his body.
Alas, don't think about it so much for now, rest early and kill Mo Weibao tomorrow.
Before dawn, Song Wenjian got up from the small bed and went out to the yard to practice boxing.
After being hunted down again, he knew that he had some ability under his hands, otherwise he would become someone else's knife.
After practicing boxing, Liang Xing came over with a cloth towel to wipe Song Wenjian's sweat. "Young master, Zheng Sike is here."
"Yes, let him come over." Song Wenjian said.
Zheng Sike trotted to Song Wenjian's side, with a sad look on his face. "Young master, last night the iron knife caught the head and interrogated them overnight, and asked those people to find out that they were bandits from Luogang Mountain."
"The bandits of Luogang Mountain?" Song Wenjian frowned.
The thieves of Luogang Mountain are at the junction of Yangqing Township and Chengyue Township, the altitude is 100 zhang, towering, steep and straight, the cliffs are steep, how many people are hidden in it, and the Yamen of Suixi County has not counted it until now.
Because there are underground caves in Luogang Mountain, it is said that it can also lead to other places.
A few years ago, there was a wicked man named Da Hei who had no way to escape, so he gathered a group of people to settle down in Luogang Mountain, and soon many homeless people took refuge in them.
It is said that they now have more than 100 people, Da Hei is the big boss, and the other two are called Erhei and Sanhei, and it seems that the Sanhei who met last night is Sanhei.
The government has sent officers and soldiers to encircle and suppress them many times, but they have not been wiped out, but they have lost a lot of soldiers.
Because there are caves in Luogang Mountain that can be hidden and escaped, when a large number of officers and soldiers came to encircle and suppress, they had already fled.
Over time, the government also turned a blind eye to these Luogang bandits, and as long as it was not excessive, it would not send troops to encircle and suppress them.
"Yes, young master, the Luogang bandits are brave and fierce, holding grudges, we killed their accomplices last night, they will definitely seek revenge on us." The more Zheng Sike spoke, the more worried he became.
