Chapter 185: Retribution of Grievances
Liu Mazi can't remember when his courage became so big. When the pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info first entered the industry, he was no different from an ordinary rookie, and he had to be nervous for several days to receive a few pieces of filial piety money, and when he first got off the girl and wanted to give money, he was ridiculed by the thugs watching the scene as a newcomer. bent on catching the thief, but as a result, he checked and found a certain nobleman's mansion, not only could he not investigate the case, but he was blocked in the alley by several people and beaten severely.
Gradually, he understood that what he needed to be quick to catch was his brain, his eyes, and people began to become flexible, collecting more and more money, and catching fewer and fewer thieves. On the ground, the fox society rat in the city regularly pays him filial piety money, and he also serves as a backer for these people. The days are getting more and more nourishing, and his reputation in the yamen is getting better and better, and even the Liufang Bookstore occasionally invites him to a glass of wine.
Married a wife with good eyebrows and a son, everything became beautiful, until one time, he went to other provinces to run an errand and returned early, and brought home, but he saw that the son of the man on the adjacent street was sleeping with his wife.
After all, he has been catching fast for several years, and he also knows who can be messed with and who can't be messed with, even if he knew that he had been a turtle for a few years in vain and raised a son, in the end, he only received the other party's compensation of twenty taels of silver, so he happily wrote a letter of resignation and asked his wife to remarry with the child. Since then, Liu Mazi has no longer married or started a family.
Everything seems to have passed, he still kowtows when he sees the old man, and he will still do errands in the yamen, everyone thinks that he has confessed, and he knows that he can't fight and others dare not move, as for what he thinks in his heart, only he knows.
He hated the rich, the scholars, the nobles, the Yanei, and the fair-skinned women, because they were like his wives...... This kind of hatred is meaningless most of the time, and he can't help those people. At most, you can only curse a few words behind your back, and nothing else can be done. Only this time, the curse worked.
The first person to die at his hands in Smallpox Village was a scholar. That's a country talent, I heard that it's a bit famous. But so what? Who made him look so much like that husband-in-law! Liu Mazi deliberately withheld his firewood and didn't give it, watching this scholar freeze to death, he thought he was fighting for twenty boards, but he didn't expect that nothing happened in the end. The yamen doesn't care whether the people who live in the village live or die, as long as the plague does not spread, the love that lives in the village will be whatever it is, they are not even people!
This is the truth that he only understood when he took possession of the first woman. The woman, like his wife, had a pair of fox eyes, which should be the kind that was easy to get started with. Unexpectedly, she refused to obey and even bit him. It wasn't until he strangled the woman to death that he was stunned to find out that he had actually killed someone.
Eating public food, killing people is not a problem, killing innocent people is a big problem, this kind of thing is going to be beheaded. But the yamen did not investigate, he just mixed the people into the smallpox of dead people and pulled them out to bury them, and the matter was over, and no one asked at all. Nobody cares if they live or die, no one cares.
No matter what their identity was, from the moment they entered the village, they were just a group of patients, and their lives and deaths were controlled by themselves. Even if the illness has been cured, he still wants them to live and die. From selling men to work in black workshops, to selling women to those strongmen or traffickers, Liu Mazi's courage is getting bigger and bigger. At first, the servants only dared to mess with the forbidden women, but later found that after the female patients recovered, they could not leave the village immediately, so they began to attack them. Under his leadership, the targets of these people have shifted from private families to rich people, children of officials, and even out of control.
Today, this woman can't let her go!
Liu Mazi has a plan in his heart, no matter how much he pays, he has to get her. Get her at least once. A Xu official like himself can also play the eldest lady once, and this life is not in vain.
When the two of them arrived at the place, the blood on the ground had already congealed.
The four officials who had been arranged here to deal with a possible armed conflict had all fallen to the ground, and the young forbidden woman, one of whose hands had been severed by his wrist, had already passed out. In the wind and snow, a scholar stood with a knife, and that kind of shape was a bit like a young man who had just entered the rivers and lakes, knew nothing about the sinister hearts of people, and liked to pose for attention when he had nothing to do. I think it's very stylish, but in the eyes of my husband, I always feel a little lacking in my eyes.
The blood on the knife had actually dried up a long time ago, and pieces of snow fell on the knife, looking at the bright blade, Fan Jin remembered a sentence in his mind: Ximen blows snow, and the snow is blown not blood......
In fact, the catcher who can be sent to deal with the fight will not be too weak. However, Guan Qing himself is a good fighter, although Fan Zhigao is not very good at fighting, but fortunately, people are insidious enough, a rural farmer's face hides a vicious heart, a bag of lime powder slapped over, and a government servant is entangled. And the most main output is still Fan Jin.
The official is not a killer, even if he has killed someone before, it is because there is an order to someone to take the blame, and the situation is intensified. Facing the children of rich families, not ordinary people, let them be more cautious in their actions. Before getting the killing order, he still used a stick when he shot, hoping to knock people over first.
Fan Jin didn't have so many concerns, he directly pulled out the sword he was wearing, and the shot was a ruthless move. His own skills are not weak, and he has learned a few skills from those soldiers in Luoshan to defend himself and kill people, not to mention the overwhelming advantage of weapons.
Under several actions, the four poor people were overturned, and Fan Jin was on the side, but Fan Zhigao and Guan Qing suffered some minor injuries and there was no major problem. This kind of minor injury is mainly to ensure that Fan Jin is not hurt and maintain his posture, otherwise the situation will be better.
Liu Mazi has been a fast catcher in Jiangning for half his life, and he has seen a lot of gentlemen, and there are not a few people who dare to beat the public without saying a word, but after cutting people, people who pose in such a strange shape and are emotionally stable are really rare. According to his experience, such people are generally either amazing backers or real madmen......
"This ...... What's going on? This son, this is ......"
Fan Jin said: "I remember you said that where female patients live, there are only forbidden women, not men. What is the situation with these four people? Celestial Eunuch? I think that when they appeared in the women's ward, they must be thieves, so they took people. They resisted arrest, that's what it looks like, what's the problem? ”
"Bad guys! Villain! ”
A snow ball flew over and hit Liu Mazi's shoulder, and the snow dispersed, with no power, but it just made Liu Mazi a little upset. The woman pointed at Liu Mazi and hid behind Guan Qing and Fan Zhigao. poked his head out from behind the gap between the two of them, pointed at Liu Mazi and said:
"Bad guys...... He wants me to sleep with him, and he won't let me go home if I don't agree! I have a husband...... I have children...... I want to go home! Come on, bad guy, let's sleep, and I'll be able to go home after sleep! ”
When she said this, she suddenly laughed, grinned, and wanted to walk towards Liu Mazi, but was dragged by Guan Qing and couldn't move. She was anxious and shouted, "Go home, I want to go home!" Any of you can sleep with me if you want, Zhang Bantou, Li Bantou, Liu Bantou, you can come together. Just let me go home......"
Zhang said coldly: "What's going on?" ”
"This ...... You can see that she is a madman. If the mind is not clear, what is said is not to be believed. In fact, when she entered the Zhuangzi, she was already like this. I heard that she was bullied, and the husband divorced her, and later got smallpox, but there was no way. To let her go home is to starve her to death, and to leave her here so that she can have something to eat. In fact, the villain also wants to do good deeds and find food for her. I didn't expect her to be so crazy, and everyone was the gangster who harmed her. If it hadn't been for smallpox, I would have caught that gangster. Childe, Miss, this ...... These are all Yamen officials, what is the purpose of doing this? There has to be a reason, right? ”
Fan Jin said: "We were going to find someone, and they actually did it and wanted to forcibly arrest someone, so that's what it looks like." As for this woman, I have already warned her, be polite to the young lady, she will still point fingers, so I have to cut off her hand and give her some memory. ”
Liu Mazi said: "Actually...... They are also involuntarily, just defending the yamen system. There are no rules, there are no rules, and if there are hundreds of patients here, if there is no discipline, the world will be in chaos a long time ago. I don't say it, but you can understand that no one wants to live here, and they all want to go home. When we see outsiders, our hearts are more wild, and we are even more difficult to manage. To tell the truth, those of us who eat public meals are all big and coarse, and we don't know so many truths, and we are used to using our fists instead of tongues to reason on weekdays, so let's pretend to be a good gentleman to reason with them, and we don't have the ability to do this, so we can only rely on the orders of the yamen to maintain the situation from chaos. ”
"It's hard enough to keep these people's hearts steady, and if someone gives them some bad thoughts, thinking it's better to go home than here, it's going to make a lot of trouble. It's okay if it's just making trouble, I'm afraid they'll sneak away. Now in this chaotic world, it is not safe for them to run out of this Zhuangzi, and they will die if they don't do it. Besides, we can't afford to spread the plague. It is also not safe in the Zhuangzi, some homeless people think that women want to go crazy, and they will sneak into the Zhuangzi to do evil, and women alone cannot deal with them, so they have to arrange a few reliable officials to deal with it. I didn't expect ...... This matter has its own big master's fate, and he doesn't dare to embarrass the nobles after the next battle. ”
Zhang snorted: "It's worthy of being a husband, it's a good mouth." I won't ask you about this first, I'll ask you first, Miss Xu Liu, do you know about what I'm going to take away? They said that you have to nod your head to do it, okay, now I want you to say this, I want to take people away, do you agree or not? ”
Aunt Jiao said: "The old slave has heard about this, and it's not impossible, but the eldest lady always has to report a name so that the old slave knows which province you are." Then someone from the Duke of Wei came forward and wrote a note. Otherwise, if you take people away, they will come to ask for people again, and the old slave will not be able to explain. ”
Zhang said: "What you say is a human sentence. This matter is not difficult to do, I can tell someone to go to the Wei State Mansion to call someone, but before that, I have to go and meet a few friends. If you don't agree, we'll find it ourselves. ”
Liu Mazi said: "The eldest lady is a nobleman, how can you go to find it yourself, even if there are women here, it is not a proper person." The people in this village are all flowers, and the person you are looking for is dead or alive, and I don't dare to guarantee it. Some flowers are very serious, and if you haven't had a flower, you can't take risks. Whether the man will see anyone or not, we have no way of knowing. Please go to the villain's place first to drink a few glasses of wine to warm up, so as not to suffer the cold. No matter if you are looking for someone to pick up someone, there are small ones who send people to do it, and on the side of the Duke of Wei, villains will also send people to invite them. ”
He said this, peeking over. If the other party refuses, he can only be tough, this scholar is probably good at martial arts, but he has a lot of people, and he should be able to deal with it. Just outwitted, try not to be a force. So the four young men were actually reimbursed like this...... They're all good boys.
There was not much time between when he made the suggestion and when Fan Jin made a decision, but for Aunt Jiao and Liu Mazi, it seemed like decades had passed. It wasn't until the young scholar nodded that Liu Mazi's heart was relieved.
"That's a way to do it. After all, it's yours here, and it's easier for you to find someone than for us to find ourselves. Take us to your place for a few drinks first, it's too cold, people are about to stiffen, it's better to find a house to warm up. You ask your people to find the people that the young lady wants to see and have something to say to them. My subordinates are wounded, do you have any medicine here? There are still these few, if you throw them in the snow, you will freeze to death, don't blame me when the time comes. ”
"Yes, the villain naturally has medicine here. Childe rest assured, the villain will arrange for someone to transport people away. This time, the villain is also responsible, it is the villain's lax discipline on weekdays, so they will offend the nobles, don't be surprised by the son and the young lady. ”
While speaking, Liu Mazi had already motioned for Jiao Pozi to kneel down with him and kowtow to the young man and woman to admit his mistake. The ground was very cold, but Liu Mazi's heart was very hot. As soon as he thought that he would be able to get such a beauty who he didn't even dare to look at on weekdays, he began to thank this plague and this remote flower village from the bottom of his heart.
These young ladies have never taken the servants seriously. In their eyes, these people are just slaves who are going to go and come at a moment's notice, and they don't need to consider their own feelings when doing things, and they only need to give an order to make their people suffer and work hard. The woman...... I'm going to wake her up and let her see how I'm ......
Maybe this scholar has some means, but after all, he is not very old, and he knows little about the experience in the rivers and lakes. As long as you drink Menghan medicinal wine, you will be your own world......
Liu Mazi thought so, still acting deferentially on the surface, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to Fan Jin and Zhang's to make amends. Fan Jin smiled: "Okay, in fact, it doesn't matter, I also have something wrong, my temper is too impulsive, and I cut people when I pull out a knife." I'll pay them for the soup and medicine when I go back, and it's negotiable how much money they want......"
According to the normal pattern, the next step should be hello everyone, hello everyone, and go to the public house to drink together. But at this moment, a firecracker suddenly sounded, and the sound came very abruptly, as if there was a thunder in winter.
Although it is winter, it is still far from the New Year, and in such an environment, even if it is the New Year, few people will set off cannons to celebrate, and the sound of firecrackers makes no sense.
Liu Mazi and Aunt Jiao both knew what the sound of firecrackers meant, and Jiao's face was already a little blue, and he wanted to get up without waiting for the command. Liu Mazi turned his head to look and saw a pillar of smoke rising in the direction of the village entrance.
Damn it.
At this time, there was a situation, and he secretly cursed in his heart: This pair of men and women will not be easy to deal with, and things are a little difficult to handle.
The scholar also said to himself: "Interesting! I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. Hey, I said Liu Bantou, you speak very well, but there is something I want to ask you, why I checked the files, the people of Huazhuang only have records of coming in, not going out, can you explain to me, why your subordinates can't even tell how long Huazhuang has been established, let alone whether anyone has gone back? Is it that in more than two months, no one has been better? ”
Oops!
Liu Mazi knew that something was wrong, and he didn't even think about it, so he grabbed a handful of snow and went up, like a cheetah, taking advantage of the situation, ready to hold this scholar hostage first and then reason. He is not well-known in Jiangning's martial arts circle, and no one regards him as a martial arts master, but after more than 20 years of catching fast, the so-called martial arts masters and famous boxers in his hands do not know how many there are. The skills honed in several life-and-death fights have no tricks, and if there is a name, it is just the word survival.
But when the snow was raised, in the fluttering snowflakes, he saw that the scholar was holding a handcuff in his hand, and at some point, the pistol was already aimed at his chest.
He...... Who exactly? How can there be a firebolt? Even the people in the yamen don't have this thing, let alone a scholar.
Of course, now that it is meaningless to dwell on these things, the scholar still has a smile on his face, and that smile is very sincere and full of sunshine. But in Liu Mazi's opinion, this kind of smile is one of the most terrifying expressions in the world. No sooner had he lifted the snow than the bells rang.
Jiao Pozi knelt a little farther away, and when she raised her head, she only saw the gun in the scholar's hand, the snowflakes flying in the sky, the tumbling Liu Mazi, and the blood that exploded on his shoulder.
Although she is a woman, the reaction speed of a fierce woman like Jiao Pozi is not much slower than that of a man, she jumped up and ran out lifelessly, saying as she ran: "Someone, kill someone!" The robber killed the officer! ”
She didn't run far, the closed doors opened, and the women, who were either in good clothes or ragged, rushed out of the room and surrounded Aunt Jiao. They don't care if it's a robber or someone, they just know that the savior is coming, and there is revenge and revenge.
