Chapter 112: Parting Ways
Dead!
There was a dead silence on the official road, as if all the living creatures within a radius of 100 zhang had died, and even the wind had stopped.
Yao Rong opened his mouth wide, he boasted that he had not seen too many of the cockroaches who cut the path, but this one could kill the thief of the Taishi Mansion in his life, and the horse bowl on the side also squinted, although he could not see the number of the gun on the other side of the face, but this expert shot to see the doorway, with his rich walking experience, he secretly said in his heart that this person was afraid that he was born in the army, so he could be so skilled in using the nine-foot gun as a horse lance.
As for the archers, officials and civilian officials in front of the convoy, they are all stupid, after all, killing people in the street is still extremely rare at the moment, and now the entertainment activity of beheading in autumn is almost extinct, and most of the prisoners who have committed capital crimes have been assassinated and exiled to the border army, so for the vast majority of ordinary people, it is still quite exciting to see the dead with their own eyes, not to mention the form in front of them.
After a full time of silence for more than ten breaths, the man who planted the flag shook his gun, received the gun on the victory hook, stretched out his hand to pull up the Heavenly Dao Alliance torture and killing flag planted on the ground, and rode his horse slowly to the position half an arrow away from everyone, and said loudly: "The reason of heaven is clear, and the law of the Tao is natural!" My Heavenly Dao Alliance is doing the right thing for Heaven this time, only looking for trouble from the Bureau, I advise you not to make mistakes, your wife and children are still waiting for you to go home for reunion! ”
After saying that, he turned the horse's head and walked away, and did not forget to take the horse left behind after the death of the envoy!
After everyone saw him walk away, they woke up and looked at each other, but when they heard that people were looking for trouble with Ying Feng, no one was so frightened that they ran away, but they all came to see Yao Rong, who was sitting on a donkey with trembling feet.
"Oshiji, how should this be?" The tax collector on the side was so shocked that his teeth chattered, but Yao Rong was so angry that he couldn't beat it, so he stretched out his hand and slapped his head down, and scolded: "People are looking for trouble with the Ying Feng Bureau, why are you shocked?" ”
Yao Rong thought about it, stretched out his foot and kicked the tax collector again, and shouted: "Go, go to the rear team to summon the deputy envoy, and ask everyone to use dry food on the spot. ”
The tax collector hurriedly jumped up and picked up the head and ran to the back team, but Yao Rong looked at Ma Dawan who looked calm on the side and said, "Ma catches the head, look at this matter......"
Ma Dawan frowned, turned his head to look at the back team, and said: "Yao Zhisi, we were ordered to escort the summer tax to Shouchun, and there are no thieves who are embarrassed by us!" ”
When Yao Rong heard this, he also understood the meaning of Ma Dawan's words, and he also agreed in his heart, so he closed his eyes and stroked his beard and pondered.
After a while, the little tax collector led a strong man in his early thirties, although the strong man was wearing the uniform of the Ying Feng Bureau, but he was wearing fast boots with cowhide soles under his feet, and a belt with gold and jade was tied around his waist.
It's just that Yao Rong of course knows that he shouldn't ask, so he naturally won't ask why the strawbag-like Zhang Zhienvoy is the main envoy, but this obvious and dewy person is the deputy envoy.
As soon as this person came, he naturally saw the Zhang envoy who was ambushing the corpse in the distance, and immediately asked what happened, Yao Rong planted a flag on the road, and Zhang made a battle with the thief, and then was knocked down by a gun.
When he lifted it up to the crowd and stepped forward to take a look, the envoy was dumbfounded, and he saw that there was only an inch-long wound in his throat that had cut the Adam's apple.
"What a handsome marksmanship!" Ma Dawan nodded, this cavalry battle is not comparable to foot combat, the level of martial arts is high, neither fake nor hidden, just with this amazing shot, even if the other party goes to the army, it is safe to be a captain.
Yao Rong was not interested in the dead, but more interested in the living, so he asked the deputy envoy, "Now, what is the plan of the deputy envoy?" ”
The deputy envoy's face was full of anxiety, but he couldn't say why, but he knew that he would call someone to the rear team to inform, and soon the Ying Feng Bureau, who was responsible for escorting Hua Shigang, all came, and counted the heads, but there were twenty-one, counting the lying Zhang envoy, a total of twenty-two.
After these people discussed for a while, an old messenger came out and said: "Yao Zhisi, now it seems that it is troublesome for you and me to go on the road together, but now that we are halfway through the road, we can't abandon us in this wilderness, at least escort us to Gushi County, so that this friendship can be regarded as complete." ”
Yao Rong thought about it for a while, and said: "Even if you settle down in this Zhoujia store tonight, there are still more than 100 miles away from Gushi County, and I can't wait for the escort summer tax to be very different, and I can't easily go out of the pool, and I don't know if this gang of thieves is too many people, so it's embarrassing!" ”
When the deputy envoy heard this, he couldn't help but say: "When I first got together, I said that as long as I arrived in Shouchun, I would not be less than half of the money for your hard work, and now I have only traveled half the way, and I met a single thief who cut the path, and the priest was going to retreat, could it be that there was no one in the Taishi Mansion?" ”
When Yao Rong heard this, he hurriedly smiled: "How dare you!" Although the world is big, who dares to deceive the people of the Taishi Mansion? The deputy envoy extinguished his anger first, what is my plan? ”
"Come on!" The deputy envoy's face was still a little white, but it turned red just a few words, and at this time, the biggest person who wanted to come to this Taishi Mansion was the Taishi, who would dare to bully no one in the Taishi Mansion? Does the official family count? But if a thief who is not even afraid of the official family wants to bully him, what should he do?
Yao Rong said: "The deputy envoy should also understand that the thieves are coming to the bureau with a bright banner, and I and other archers and people are all laborers, and they are only to get a few pennies to pay taxes to this government, if they really encounter a large group of thieves attacking, I am afraid that it will be difficult to protect themselves, let alone protect you." Besides, the loss of this tax and silver is a capital crime involving the three clans, and if there is a loss due to the flowers and stones transported by you, I am afraid that the people will not be convinced! ”
When the deputy envoy heard what he said, he shouted, "Noise! Honestly, what are you going to do? ”
Yao Rong said with a straight face: "According to what Fang Cai said, we will definitely go to Gushi County with the deputy envoy." It's just that for the rest of the road, please take the lead. If the thief asks the deputy envoy to kill and retreat, it is easy to say, and the officials of Gushi County will definitely hold a banquet to invite the crime. ”
When the deputy envoy heard this, his face changed, and he shouted, "What if I don't want to wait?" ”
Yao Rong was not stupid, and sneered: "It's not good, I can only part ways with the deputy envoy and lead the people to go first!" ”
