Chapter 89: The Great Fire in Zengtou City (Part I)
Looking at the rather fierce discussions between the Zhuang Ding and the people below, Shi Wengong secretly thought to himself, "Sure enough, things won't be so simple. But fortunately, I prepared human and physical evidence in advance. ”
Immediately, Shi Wengong stopped the discussion below in a loud voice, and said, "Everyone, please be quiet, if Shi Mou does not have definite evidence, he will definitely not draw conclusions." This Shiqian brother had personally heard that Zeng Lang had discussed matters with the two Jin men and the prefect in Lingzhou City, and had also bribed the prefect with money. ”
As he spoke, Shi Qian took off the package he was carrying, took out the gold bars stored inside, and said to everyone, "Look! This is the gold bar that once made the United Jin people bribe with the prefect of Lingzhou! ”
"What! This turned out to be true! ”
"I really can't imagine that Zeng Lao Er would do such a thing. He really had an intersection with the golden man. But what did he do by bribing the prefect tirelessly? ”
Speaking of which, half of the people below already believed what Shi Wengong and Shi Qian said.
Seeing that there were still those who were not strong-willed, Shi Wengong ordered Zhang San and Li Si to escort out the two Zeng Lane entourages who had been arrested earlier.
As soon as the people below saw these two people, they were surprised, "Isn't this a little eight and nine, they are inseparable from the old owner on weekdays, how can they appear here now?" ”
Seeing that everyone knew these two people, Shi Wengong smiled secretly, and then said to the two people, "Okay, you can tell what you have seen and heard in the past few days, remember, if you two dare to have half a lie, Shi will definitely let the two of you blood splash on the spot!" ”
Seeing Shi Wengong so persecuted, the little eight and nine did not dare to hesitate, and now they told how they had met the two golden kings in the past few days, and what they talked about the news about the Central Plains in the restaurant, but the two of them did not mention a word about why they bribed the prefect.
And this obviously makes Shi Wengong feel very satisfied, because after all, what he is doing now is to get rid of this Zeng family, as for why he bribed the Liu Governor's Mansion, it is not the point, not to mention that it is also related to himself, so Shi Wengong doesn't want the people below to know.
may be precisely because of this sense of proportion when these little eight and ninety-two people testified that Shi Wengong let them go and did not harm these two.
After the people below heard this little eight and nine who had been following Zeng Lane all the year round tell the story, the people of Zhuang Ding really believed it.
Then everyone below said angrily: "Unexpected! This old man would be the spy of the northern Jin people! We have all been deceived by him, and we still work for such people, which is really hateful! ”
"That's right! If it weren't for the history teacher to verify this matter, I don't know how long we would have been fooled by this old thief, maybe in the future, we would still be used by this old thief to help those golden people! ”
"That's right! Teacher Shi can really be said to have rescued me this time, which is equivalent to fire and water! ”
"Where is the old thief now! We're going to tear this golden man's spy alive! ”
Although the Jin people on the northern grassland had not yet invaded the Central Plains in the south at this time, these men also vaguely knew something about those Jin people.
It is rumored that they are more fierce and unstoppable than the Liao people, the sworn enemies of the Great Song Dynasty, and they also have no one in their eyes when they are in the Central Plains, and they look down on the Central Plains people, because these people have long been hostile to those Jin people, and at this time, as soon as they heard that they had already arranged for Zeng to sneak into the Central Plains to find out the news and form a force, they broke out even more.
Looking at the angry people below scolding and venting the injustice in their hearts, Shi Wengong secretly sighed in his heart, "That's right, this is the effect I expected." ”
Just when Shi Wengong and Lin Chong and Su Ding were smiling, Li Zhong and Yu Baosi ran out in embarrassment and reported to Shi Wengong, "Oh no, Teacher Shi, I didn't know where to buy some thieves with a lot of money, and they actually rushed into the village and rescued their five sons!" ”
"What!" When he heard the news, Shi Wengong and Lin Chong Su Ding were quite shocked, Shi Wengong saw that Zeng had never returned to the village before, and thought that he was afraid in his heart, and he had already fled away, but he didn't expect that he would dare to come back now.
Then, Shi Wen Gongdang even shouted loudly, "Everyone! That Zeng Lang is now carrying the thief back to the village, please go with a certain person to capture this thief! ”
"I'm willing to follow Teacher Shi to capture the thief!"
After revealing the true face of the old thief, Shi Wengong's reputation in Zengtou City can be said to be echoed, and almost all the loyal people in Zengtou City are on Shi Wengong's side.
Subsequently, Shi Wengong, Lin Chong, Su Ding and others led many Zhuang Ding to rush towards the treasury of Zengtou City.
At this time, Shi Wengong had already guessed why Zeng Lane would turn around and enter the village regardless of the danger, and rescuing his son was probably not his ultimate goal, what he did should be the money he had accumulated in the Central Plains for more than ten years.
As the saying goes, people die for money, birds die for food, not to mention that this money is saved by the old thief who has worked hard all his life, how can he give it up easily.
Sure enough, when Shi Wengong led everyone to the front of this warehouse, he really saw that Zeng Rongzheng and Wuzi commanded the hired thieves to carry the money and food.
At this time, Shi Wengong stood on the horse and shouted, "Zeng Rong!" Your identity as an old thief has been exposed to the world, and you have no way to retreat now. ”
Seeing that Shi Wengong led many Zengtou City villagers to come, Zeng Lang's father and son were furious, and then Zeng Lang was the first to shout, "Shi Wengong!" You dog thief! I think I have treated you well, but why do you treat me like this, trapping my father and son in such a situation! ”
After hearing this, Shi Wengong sneered, "Hmph, I have made an old thief, do you really think that I, Shi Wengong, will come to your Zengtou City to be a famous teacher, just for your stinky money, to tell you the truth, find out the true identity of your father and son, this is the ultimate purpose of Shi Mou's visit to your Zengtou City!" ”
"Ahh I'm going to kill you, you thief! Hearing Shi Wengong's words, Zeng Rong, who had always shown a smiling face, couldn't help but shout angrily on the spot, and then wanted to ride a horse to fight Shi Wengong, but was stopped by his eldest son Zeng Tu, and said.
"Father, take a break, and see how the child takes the life of this thief! Shi Wengong! Come on! Yah! Saying that, Zeng Tu held a steel gun and rushed towards Shi Wengong.
Shi Wen Gong was not afraid when he saw it, patted the horse's buttocks, stepped forward, and confronted Na Zeng Tu.
