Chapter 164: Where to Run!
Huo Guang glanced around the crowd, and the people of the entire street looked at him with expectant eyes, and they were still a little angry at Willow's inaction.
Hearing the discussion coming from the bustling crowd, Huo Guang paused, raised his voice and shouted to the people of Wancheng.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this thief willow stole the old woman's money, but refused to admit it, the old woman is really pitiful, it is better for each of us to give a little love, give a helping hand, one coin per person, not much, so that the old man can go home and rest early."
At this moment, the onlookers are all small traders who do business here all the year round or people who live nearby, and they all know the old woman, whose family is poor, and sells oil cakes every day to feed her sick husband and grandson who are waiting to be fed.
As soon as Huo Guang's words fell, the crowd began to boil slightly, "Listen to the son, let's each give Grandma a penny." ”
"Yes, it's not easy for Grandma, not much for one person."
"I'll come first!"
A butcher-like man in a leather apron walked out of the crowd with his arms crossed in a loud voice, holding a coin in his hand.
Huo Guang hooked the corners of his mouth, "Wait a minute, this big brother, there must be a lot of kind-hearted people who will help you later, wait for me to prepare the container containing the money, wait, wait." ”
After that, Huo Guang glanced at the bucket next to the stall not far away, there was just half a bucket of water in it, his eyes lit up, he had a plan, and walked over to move the barrel to the center.
"Let's put the coins in this bucket now. Come on, big brother, come first. ”
Although the butcher man didn't understand what medicine was sold in the gourd of this white-faced boy he had never seen, he knew that this grandmother was really pitiful, losing money today was equivalent to asking for half of the old lady's life, and he didn't have much ability, so he could help a coin, and he was absolutely unambiguous.
He strode up to the bucket and threw a coin into it.
The little coin fell into the bucket, and after a ripple, it slowly sank to the bottom of the bucket.
Huo Guang stood by the bucket, and the crowd of onlookers began to walk up to the bucket one by one and throw coins into the bucket.
Everyone lined up, one, two, three......
There are voluntary votes, and there are involuntary ones, the main thing is that you have invested money in the front and back, and the crowd is crowded and can't go out, so you can only stand in place, if you don't follow the money, the white eyes from all directions, the face is hot, and you can't stand those hot eyes at all.
Huo Guang looked at the more and more coins in the bucket, still maintaining his original expression, carefully observing the crowd of onlookers, and suddenly his gaze fixed on a certain angle, and the corners of his mouth hooked a playful arc.
When I don't know how many coins I cast, I just heard a "plop" sound, which seems to be no different from the previous N more coins, but ......
Shortly after the coin fell into the water, a film of oil floated on the bucket, and the man was about to turn away.
Huo Guang suddenly stepped forward and shouted, "The thief who threw oil cake money!" Don't hurry up and catch it. ”
Before the onlookers could understand what was going on, they all craned their necks to look at the situation next to the bucket.
When the man heard Huo Guang's shouting, his eyes were stunned, his pupils constricted suddenly, his face was full of panic, and his feet moved quickly, wanting to escape.
"Bold thief, where to run!" Huo Guang stepped forward and grabbed the back collar of this person, firmly shackling him within his control.
There was an uproar at the scene, and everyone didn't understand why Huo Guang suddenly said that this person was a thief, and the person who invested the money did not leave, and the scene was surrounded by water.
The man turned his head suddenly, his sharp-beaked monkey cheeks, his eyes leaked fiercely, he broke free from Huo Guang's shackles, straightened his chest, pointed at Huo Guang and roared, "You are a foreigner, why do you say that I am a thief of oil cake money, do you have evidence?" Don't bite without proof! ”
Although this sentence is very rough, but looking at the lively melon-eating crowd and his thoughts, this son stepped forward and organized everyone to donate This is a top-up, and everyone supports it, but how can he know that the monkey-faced man who just invested in the coins is a thief?
Huo Guang laughed, still holding on to the thief's face, "You want evidence?" Okay, I'll bring out the evidence now, convince you, and everyone will follow along. ”
Everyone waited for Huo Guang to tell the evidence, and the monkey-faced man looked treacherous and pouted contemptuously.
Huo Guang saw that the monkey-faced man had no intention of leaving, so he got up even more unhurriedly and walked to the bucket, "Let's see, this person's coin has just been put into the bucket, and a layer of oil has floated on the water surface. ”
The crowd of onlookers quickly shrank inward, and the original large circle became a small circle, but the number of people did not decrease, and they all wanted to see the situation of the bucket.
"Really, there is this layer of oil floating in the barrel, and there was no oil when I invested the money just now." The butcher shouted in a loud voice.
After thinking about it, he twisted his two thick eyebrows and shouted, "But Childe, even if there is oil, what does it mean?" ”
The butcher brawny man voiced everyone's doubts.
Huo Guang continued, "This old woman sells oil cakes, and the money is not seen in the basket that sells oil cakes, so the coins will naturally be stained with oil. We ordinary people, even if the money is accidentally stained with oil, we will quickly wipe it clean, so as not to get it on the clothes. So the money that everyone invested before was clean. ”
The onlookers nodded their heads as if they didn't understand, thinking that their money was indeed wiped clean before putting it in their sleeves or money bags so as not to get dirty.
Huo Guang saw all the eyes of agreement and continued, "But there is only one kind of person, his money will definitely be stained with oil at the moment, and that is the thief who just stole the old woman's money. And I concluded that this person must be a habitual thief, and he must still be on this street, so he deliberately made such a big noise, and wanted him to come and watch, and sure enough. Huo Guang turned around and strode towards the monkey-faced man, "Thief, don't want to escape." ”
There was a sigh of sudden realization from the crowd!
Seeing that he could no longer defend himself, the monkey-faced man was about to escape, but was caught by Huo Guang.
Although Huo Guang is lean, his martial arts are not lost to anyone, the monkey-faced man flew with a punch, he lightly blocked, and his backhand was slapped on the monkey's face. It's just a palm, and half of the monkey's face is swollen.
The monkey-faced man sat on the ground with his buttocks, pointed at Huo Guang and grinned angrily, "You foreigner dare to meddle in Lao Tzu's territory, today is your death day." ”
As soon as the words fell, a group of thugs appeared out of nowhere, one by one holding wooden sticks, approaching Huo Guang.
The onlookers recognized this group of people, and no one dared to mess with the protection money collected here on weekdays, and they always thought that they did the open robbery, but they didn't expect that they did the secret loss of money.
Although everyone's hearts were full of anger, they dared not speak out, so they could only endure it silently, and also sweat for this upright son from a foreign country, hoping that he would leave quickly, so as not to be hurt by the bullies.
The monkey-faced man jumped up from the ground, "Don't let him run today!" Above! ”
Someone in the crowd kept shouting, "Childe, let's go,"
The corners of Huo Guang's mouth hooked slightly, not only did he not run, but he slowly walked towards the gangsters.
