Chapter 451: Arrest
Snakes have snake paths, rats have rat paths
Because of the difference in class and status, each class has its own way of life.
The upper class has the life of the upper class, and the lower class has the doorway of the lower class.
Hu Hu is this kind of person, since he was more than ten years old, he has been begging for a living on the street, and then he slowly has a certain status, in addition to relying on the strength to fight, he also follows one of the most important principles, that is, always put his own safety first.
Relying on this criterion, he gradually changed from a small street gangster to a gangster with some status, because those who had preceded him had already fallen into the mass graves outside the city, but he was the only one who was still living freely.
Since following Xue Huaiyi, he has not realized for a long time that it is a feeling to be afraid, every time he does something bad, as long as he reports the name of White Horse Temple and Xue Huaiyi, no matter how much others hate him, he can only hold back and dare not do anything excessive towards him.
Today, however, the feeling that made his heart palpitate came back to his heart again.
At the first time, he wanted to turn around and escape, but soon, this idea was dispelled, he didn't think that anyone else in Luoyang City would dare to oppose them in the White Horse Temple.
"Sure enough, it's a good shade with your back against a big tree, and you sit down so sinful, and you don't even run away when it comes to the end, I don't know if you should say that you are bold or ignorant."
Just as Hu Hu opened his eyes to see what was going on, a voice came from behind him.
Hurriedly turned around, Hu Hu saw that he didn't know when, a group of officials appeared beside him, and among these officials, an official wearing a light scarlet official uniform was surrounded by several officials, standing at the gate of the Li family, looking at him with a smile in his eyes.
Seeing Duan Jian's appearance, Hu Hu, who was still a little palpitating just now, relaxed a little, not because of anything else, but because of the shallow scarlet official uniform on Duan Jian's body, which gave him confidence in his heart.
In the Tang Dynasty system, the three grades and above were purple; Four products, deep crimson; Five-pin, shallow crimson; Six-pin, dark green; Seven pins, light green; Eight pins, dark blue; Nine pins, light green.
Qianfei is also a five-grade official, maybe the five-grade official is a big official elsewhere, but in this Luoyang City, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, these five-grade officials are really nothing, and in the crowd of throwing stones, maybe they can smash a fourth-grade or third-grade official.
"I don't know what this adult is called, but I don't know you."
Because of disdain, Hu Hu had no respect in his words, but a little more ridicule.
"Thank you Duan Si for your help, if you didn't have you, I'm afraid that a certain family would have been in a mess a long time ago."
Seeing Duan Jian appear, Li Xuetao hurriedly took the whole family and saluted Duan Jian.
"Get up, get up, it's just a gesture, it's nothing, you just wait, and see what to do with this group of bastards today."
After finishing speaking, Duan Jian nodded at Le Buping beside him, and a signal came out of Le Buping's mouth.
Immediately, Hu Hu's face, which was still a little ridiculous just now, instantly turned iron-blue.
I saw that the monks who had originally broken in with him were all trapped by the pigs, not only were they trapped, but no one had rags stuffed in their mouths, no wonder he only heard a scream just now, it turned out that at that moment, these people were all knocked down.
Seeing this, Hu Hu, who had just relaxed, immediately collapsed in his heart, he had been fighting on the streets of Luoyang City for many years, he was also well-informed, although most of his subordinates were ordinary gangsters, but there were still a few of them who could fight, and even a few of them had killed people locally, and after committing a crime, they fled to Luoyang City, so they were taken in by Hu Hu.
If you want to fight with the regular army, they will definitely collapse at the first touch, but this kind of small-scale fighting was originally their strong point, but in this way, so many people were all caught with just a scream.
At this moment, Hu Hu had some scruples about Duan Jian, after all, it was not easy to have such a subordinate person.
Of course, this only made Hu Hu have a little scruples, he was able to run rampant in Luoyang City, not by these rabble, but by Xue Huaiyi, Master Xue, as long as Master Xue was there, no one dared to touch them.
"This lord, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding about us, we are the disciples of Master Huaiyi of the White Horse Temple, and we came here today to do things on the orders of Master Huaiyi, and I also asked this lord to give face."
Hu Hu said.
"Yo, disrespectful, disrespectful, I didn't expect you to be the disciples of Master Huaiyi, the lower officials are really presumptuous." I didn't know what to think, Duan Jian suddenly bowed to Hu Hu with a straight face.
"It's no wonder if you don't know, it was all a misunderstanding before, and now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, I don't know if this adult can let go of my senior brothers." Seeing Duan Jian's respectful look, Hu Hu said with some pride.
"I'm not busy, I want to ask this master, since you are disciples of Master Huaiyi, you can be regarded as a member of Buddhism, I don't know what Master Huaiyi taught you, and since you came to do things under the orders of Master Huaiyi, I don't know what to do?" Duan Jian asked knowingly.
"This ........"
Hearing this, Hu Hu already felt that something was wrong, but thinking that the current situation was stronger than others, even though he knew that Duan Jian was knowingly asking, he still opened his mouth to answer.
"As a disciple of Buddhism, of course, what I have learned is the truth of Buddhism, as for what I came here to do, involving the private affairs of Master Dao Huaiyi, it is not enough for outsiders."
"Ha, hahaha, hahaha, interesting, interesting, really interesting, a group of scoundrels really think that wearing a robe is the Buddha, it's ridiculous, robbing the people's girls can be said to be so high-sounding, the most important thing is that you are robbing the family of officials, so lawless, if you don't teach you a good lesson today, you really think that I have no law in the Tang Dynasty."
Speaking of which, Duan Jian crossed his eyebrows coldly, and with the murderous aura that had been exercised on the battlefield on his body, the oppressed Hu Hu trembled all over, and he couldn't even speak.
"Someone came, I stripped them of my clothes, put them in a flail, and showed them to the public at the entrance of the yamen for ten days, and after ten days, a certain sentence will be made again."
"Ah.......... No, no, no, don't, spare your life, your adult spare your life! ”
"Let me go, let us go, we are from the White Horse Temple, we are from the White Horse Temple!"
"Dog officer, you will regret it, Master Huaiyi will not let you go."
.............
Hearing Duan Jian's order, those fake monks opened their mouths and scolded angrily, but unfortunately, before they could scold twice, they were removed by the people around them, leaving a snort.
"You are really not afraid of death, you must know that we are from the White Horse Temple, we are all disciples of Master Huaiyi, what is the identity of Master Huaiyi, you should know, you treat us like this, he will never let you go, acquaintance, let us go, we promise not to pursue the affairs of the Li family again, otherwise, you will regret it sooner or later."
Compared to those monks, although Hu Hu's face turned blue with fright, he still yelled at Duan Jian.
"Hmph....... Hahaha, I'm afraid, I'm Duan Jian hasn't known how to write the words since I came to this world, don't say that you guys are deflated, even if Xue Huaiyi is here today, a certain person will be able to catch it, and a certain person will not believe it, this is Lang Lang, Datang really has no law. ”
Walking in front of Hu Hu, Duan Jian said with a mocking look on his face.
"Duan Jian, you are Duan Jian......"
If Hu Hu was just afraid before, after hearing Duan Jian report to his home, he completely turned into a look of remorse.
At the same time, I thought of what they and Xue Huaiyi were drinking and talking about together a few days ago.
At that time, he complimented Xue Huaiyi as the first person in Luoyang City except for the Queen Mother, Xue Huaiyi was quite proud at that time, but then he shook his head and said, "He is not afraid of anyone in the entire Luoyang City, but he is afraid of one person." ”
Hearing this, he was very curious and asked who Xue Huaiyi was, after all, he couldn't be clearer about Xue Huaiyi's identity, not to mention anything else, even the extremely beautiful Lai Junchen and the martial arts brothers outside were respectful to Xue Huaiyi, who could make Xue Huaiyi so jealous.
Immediately, Xue Huaiyi highlighted the name Duan Jian.
For Duan Jian, Hu Hu is also like thunder, before adding Xue Huaiyi's words, he also paid special attention, and specially instructed the people below that if he met Duan Jian or someone who had a relationship with Duan Jian, he must not make a mistake, but he didn't expect that he was so lucky to bump into Duan Jian's hands.
It is precisely in response to the sentence that 'there is something to be done in the sky, but there is no way to live for one's own iniquity, it is not that it is not repaid, and the time has not yet come.' ’
...................
Luoyang City, as the imperial capital, is never short of new things, and even things that seem to be as big as the sky in other places, in the eyes of Luoyang people, are not much bigger than sesame seeds, but this time, Luoyang City is once again a complete sensation.
At the entrance of Dali Temple, there were suddenly dozens of bare-chested monks, each of whom was locked in a forty-pound shackle and tied there.
For the punishment of prisoners, the people have seen a lot, but it is really the first time that such a punishment is made, in fact, this is also Duan Jian's method of copying Lai Junchen, putting a huge and heavy shackle around the prisoner's neck, which makes people extremely uncomfortable, so as to force the prisoner to confess what he needs.
But Duan Jian didn't want them to confess, but really wanted to make these scum suffer alive, and at the same time give everyone a warning.
"You say, who are these monks, how did they get tortured here by the government, could it be that they have committed some serious crime."
Outside the yamen of Dali Temple, a man who looked like a businessman from other places asked.
Hearing this person's question, a Luoyang local next to him pretended to be disdainful and said, "Hey, you don't know this, these are not ordinary monks, they are monks from the White Horse Temple, and I heard that they are still the disciples of Master Huaiyi." ”
"Ah, the monks of the White Horse Temple, that is a famous temple in the world, but why are they locked up here by the government, are they making a mistake or the government is arresting people indiscriminately."
"Hey, hey, make a mistake, tell you, this time the government is not arresting people indiscriminately, these bad things, they should be arrested, all of them should be cut down, and the scourge of the province will harm everyone."
"Well, this old man, you tell so-and-so what the hell is going on."
"You want to hear it, you really want to hear it......"
"Of course, please ask the elder brother to explain it to the younger brother in detail."
"Since you want to hear it, I'll tell you about it, and if you want to talk about it, let's say that it starts with this Huaiyi master, and the words ........."
.................
Looking at the Yamen of Dali Temple, which was once full of people, it has become as lively as the two cities of East and West, a fat old man in the crowd couldn't help but whisper to the young man around him, "Look at the good things you have done, this majestic Dali Temple has actually become a place to play monkeys." ”
"Teacher, don't say that, according to the students, in this way, it is much better than before, at least we have publicized Dali Temple." The youth said.
Hearing the young man's answer, the old man couldn't help but shake his head and smiled, "You, if you are so restless, you will suffer sooner or later." ”
This fat old man and young man are none other than Di Renjie and Duan Jian's master and apprentice.
After getting Duan Jian to detain Hu Hu and these fake monks, Di Renjie went to Dali Temple, wanting to discuss with Duan Jian to see what he thought, after all, in Di Renjie's opinion, Duan Jian should not be so radical even if he is a new official who takes office with three fires, after all, he has offended Lai Junchen before, and now he has offended Xue Huaiyi, these are the henchmen around the Empress Dowager Wu Zetian, if these people unite to deal with him, he is afraid that he will suffer a big loss.
"What are you going to do with these people?"
Di Renjie asked.
"Ten days after the students are ready to show the public, they will be interrogated, and they will be sentenced in any way." Duan replied briefly.
Di Renjie nodded and said, "That's fine, at least I have an explanation to everyone, but have you thought about it, you have already offended the villain of Lai Junchen when you went first, and now you have arrested the people of the White Horse Temple, then Xue Huaiyi is afraid that he also hates you to the core, and you are really not afraid that the Queen Mother will blame you." ”
"Teacher, if there is another person, the student will definitely say that he is not afraid, but in front of your old man, the student will not slap the swollen face and become fat, to be honest, the student does not want to be like this, but when the matter comes, the student can not watch his subordinates have an accident, but he is indifferent, in that case, in the future, it will be spread out, who dares to work with the student, as for the matter of the queen mother's punishment, a certain can't care so much, it's a big deal to resign and go home, anyway, the student doesn't worry about eating and drinking." Duan Jian replied with a wry smile on his face.
"Hey...."
Seeing Duan Jian's wry smile, Di Renjie was also full of helplessness, he knew that what Duan Jian said was the truth, some things in this world were so helpless, anyway, until now, if you don't do it, you can only resign yourself to fate.
Duan Jian was full of helplessness, but his move undoubtedly made it as if he had put an atomic bomb in the entire Luoyang City, which shocked everyone for a while.
