Chapter 54: The Sacrificial Knife

In the lobby of Qingzhou Mansion, Deng Long looked around and said in a cold tone: "Since he wants to play, then how about we play with him!" ”

"Hua Rong, Lu Zhishen, Yan Shun obeys orders."

"But please ask my brother to command!"

"Ming'er and the other three people each took a hundred men and horses to investigate the bullies and bullies in Qingzhou who oppressed the good and were rich and unkind, and took them to the vegetable market before noon to listen to the fate."

"Obey my brother's orders."

The three of them took the token, turned around and left.

"Li Zhong, Zhou Tong listens to orders."

The two stood up, bowed and said, "But please ask my brother to command." ”

Exhaling a breath, Deng Long looked at the two of them and said, "The two of you will lead five hundred men and horses to inform the people of Qingzhou City from house to house that as long as you go to the vegetable market at noon to watch the execution, each family will be given five copper coins, five stones of grain, and one horse of cloth." ”

"Obey my brother's orders."

"Wang Ying, Lu Fang, and Guo Sheng listened to the order. Now collect all the grain, grass, copper coins, and juan cloth obtained this time and pile them up in front of the government office. ”

"Obey the command."

After arranging everything, Gongsun Shengcai said: "My brother really plans to set off a lot of turbulent waves in Qingzhou!" ”

Deng Long laughed and said: "It's just a broken kettle, as long as it is done today, my Liangshan will be known to everyone in the entire Great Song Dynasty." Sooner or later, there will be a battle between us and the imperial court, since it is inevitable, it is better to let him come early, not to mention that Liangshan has the power to protect himself by now, I am afraid that he will do something! ”

Deng Longxin said: This is just a prelude, and the real big move is still to come.

There is not much else in the Great Song Dynasty, but if you find a few corrupt officials and corrupt officials, strong bullies, you will definitely catch a lot of them.

Hua Rong, Lu Zhishen, and Yan Shun went out for just over an hour, so they each caught five or six and brought them to the vegetable market.

Li Zhong and Zhou Tong divided more than 500 people into more than 100 teams and went to inform the people of Qingzhou City.

At first, no one came out, locked the door of the house, and no matter how Li Zhong and the others shouted, they didn't speak.

It's just that when the three of them arrested the powerful bully, the desolate screams reached the ears of the neighbors.

The people climbed to the top of the wall in disbelief and quietly watched, and the wicked people who usually bullied them were taken away by the heroes of Liangshan one by one like dead pigs.

Only then did someone open the door of their house, walked to the street and looked at the people of Liangshan, and they were not embarrassed by the people at all, and even some of the brave people were close to the heroes of Liangshan.

The people who came out to tempt put their hearts in their stomachs and walked generously towards the entrance of the vegetable market.

With the lead, the rest of the timid people walked out of the house tremblingly, after all, what Deng Long promised was too attractive.

At noon, the entrance of the vegetable market was crowded with people, the voices of women scolding the disciples, the crying of children, the buying of rock sugar gourds, and all kinds of snacks,......。

Composed of a miniature version of the Qingzhou Qingming Riverside map.

Deng Long walked into the vegetable market under the escort of Lu Zhishen and others, there were too many people!

The group came to the high platform of five zhang square, and there were big men with sharp blades standing around, four of them wearing red turbans and holding ghost head swords, which were particularly conspicuous.

On the stage, there were three rows of sixteen fat men in white underwear, all with a white cloth tied to their mouths, lined up on the stage.

Deng Long was wearing a dark coat, brown deerskin boots, a purple and gold crown, and a blue-patterned ancient sword, standing on the stage, looking down on the faces of all beings under the stage.

"Bang bang."

The minions rang the gong, and the audience suddenly fell silent.

"Ahem."

Deng Long cleared his throat and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen of Qingzhou City, Deng Long, the owner of Xiaokeliang Cottage, today I am asking for the people's lives at the entrance of the vegetable market, get rid of these thieves who oppress the people on weekdays, and call the shots for the people of Qingzhou City!" ”

The audience suddenly exploded.

"Okay, kill all these bad guys."

"The strongman is in charge of us!"

The people were thick-necked and red-faced, shouting hysterically from the ground.

Nodding with satisfaction, Deng Long motioned to the people to stop shouting and continued: "Now it is up to the Liangshan infantry to command Luda, and announce the guilt of these wicked people on the spot to show the world. ”

Deng Long, who shouted these two sentences, smoked in his throat, on the other hand, Lu Zhishen held a roll of red cloth and read it easily: "The big family of the king of the west of the city raised the land rent without permission, forced Liu Gou'er's family to death, sold Liu Gou'er's daughter who was less than ten years old into the Qinglou, and was beaten to death by the old bustard."

"Chen Dahu in the east of the city bribed the prefect and forcibly seized ten fields, and the people had no way to sue them, and all of them fell into the grass, and were exterminated by the Qingzhou officials and soldiers, and none of them were spared."

"Xiao big households in the north of the city, beat the farmers to death on the street, and bully the wives and daughters of the farmers, so that the farmers' families were ruined."

“……。”

One crime after another, that is, a piece of fresh human life, was taken away by these corrupt officials, powerful and bullies.

As Lu Zhishen recited all kinds of appalling crimes, the people's eyes slowly turned red, and their breathing gradually became heavier.

I don't know who shouted: "Kill them, kill them." ”

The ferocious spirit that the people had accumulated in their hearts was completely stimulated by Deng Long.

The deafening sound of shouting and killing hovered over Qingzhou City for a long time.

"Bang bang."

The gong sounded again, and this time it took a while for the noise to fade away.

Yan Shun watched the time underground, the wooden sticks erected on the ground completely disappeared, and Yan Shun shouted to the stage: "Three o'clock in the afternoon has arrived." ”

The four executioners, holding the ghost-headed broadsword, walked behind the bully who was kneeling on the ground and screaming "woo", waiting for the order to be executed.

Hearing the bloody accusations, Deng Long's chest burned with anger, he had already prepared his mind before, but he was still stunned by the accusations of these scumbags.

There were only 16 people on the stage, but more than 100 people were forced to die, but they continued to live in the world.

How desperate must have been for the people they had killed underground!

Drinking back from the executioner, he slowly drew out the blue-patterned ancient sword, and Deng Long said in an indifferent voice: "I personally beheaded these animals. ”

The blue-patterned ancient sword was raised above his head, and Deng Long roared with a hideous face: "Kill." ”

The sword fell.

"Poof."

The huge head rolled out a long way, and at the neck of the corpse, red blood sprayed Deng Long's body and face.

"Okay."

The people waved and applauded.

Deng Long moved two steps expressionlessly, continued to raise his sword, and slashed down.

"Poof."

"Poof."

After slashing seven people in a row, Deng Long's hands trembled slightly, he was exhausted, and now it seemed that an unyielding will in the dark supported Deng Long to stand on the stage.

Gongsun Sheng saw that something was wrong with Deng Long, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The rest will be handed over to Ti Ha to deal with!" ”

Deng Long nodded slightly, followed Gongsun Sheng down the high platform, came to a nearby restaurant, and continued to watch the execution.

Lu Zhishen's anger is no less than that of Deng Long, and his more than ten years of military career has taught Lu Zhishen countless most painful deaths.

Holding a ghost-headed broadsword in his hand, Lu Zhishen swung out the broadsword vigorously and cut off the bully's waist with one sword. And the bully is not dead yet, his hands are frantically pulling on the ground.

This cruel criminal law was invented by Li Si in the pre-Qin period, and ironically, Li Si finally died under the beheading of his own invention.

The first bully to be cut in half wailed for a cup of tea before it gradually died down.

The remaining eight bullies were frightened by the scene just now, and without waiting for Lu Zhishen's execution, the eight of them unanimously slammed their heads to the stone pier in front of them.

"Boom."

Eight heads, seven rotten, red and white, sprinkled all over the ground.

Which one didn't die, and before he could hit it for the second time, Lu Zhishen's ghost-headed big knife had already cut off his waist.

Deng Long looked at the completion of the execution, and said to Guo Sheng: "The vegetable market is over, now take the people to get money and grain!" ”

Guo Sheng hurriedly stood up and ran to report to Lu Zhishen.

Turning his head, Deng Long looked out the window and muttered, "Damn people can't let go of any of them!" ”
