Chapter 7: Bounty

Wu Qing's worries were not superfluous, and they were quickly confirmed. Just a while after a few Ding Zhuang came back, the Song army carried the wounded and escorted the remaining Wujiazhuang Ding Zhuang, with an angry face, and came to Wujiazhuang to seek justice.

"You damned pariahs! For the sake of your cheap life, Ben Jiang almost lost his life! Luo Yuansheng's face turned pale, and he roared from afar. While roaring, he broke out in a cold sweat, couldn't stop snorting, and shouted from time to time, obviously, he wanted to vent his anger on the villagers of Wujiazhuang.

What kind of crooked truth is this?

However, Xiucai met the soldiers, and it was unreasonable. The soldiers suffered losses, and if they didn't trouble Wujiazhuang, they wouldn't be soldiers.

"Let the people go! Let the people go! ”

"If you have something to say, say it well."

Wu Qing, as well as the villagers of Wujiazhuang, looked at the few Ding Zhuang who put the knife on their necks, and were frightened.

Those Ding Zhuang put the knife on their necks, their faces were all gray, they couldn't stop shaking, and they couldn't even speak. They are honest people, and it is good that they have been so frightened and did not faint on the spot.

"Don't let go, just don't let go! I want them dead! Luo Yuan roared angrily.

"Master General, please raise your noble hand and let go of a few offspring. The general has been injured and suffered, and we are willing to compensate! May it be compensated! Wu Qing was really frightened at this time, and he almost kowtowed and begged for mercy.

"Lao Tzu is a general, this life is worth a lot, you have to pay a thousand yuan." Luo Yuansheng couldn't stop breaking out in a cold sweat, but he didn't forget the word money, the charm of this money is really great, a pair of eyes looked at Wu Xiaoniang, and a strange light flashed: "I also want her to be my concubine." If you don't want to, I'll kill you and leave you alone. ”

That's too much to ask. One thousand yuan is one thousand taels of silver, and Wujiazhuang is all croppers, and it is not worth a thousand yuan if they sell them all.

Not to mention, he named and asked Mrs. Wu to be a concubine. Now, Wu Qiang has just died, and there is only one lonely person left with Wu Xiaoniang, if she is ruined, who still has the face to live in the world?

You must know that the people in Wujiazhuang are all related to each other, and no one wants this kind of thing to happen.

But what can you do under the high pressure of the soldiers?

In the Song Dynasty, it was common for soldiers to kill civilians. If Luo Yuansheng killed the people of Wujiazhuang, maybe he would get a credit, and he could report that this was the head of the Liao army. This kind of thing happened endlessly in the Song Dynasty, and no one dared to doubt Luo Yuansheng's words.

"How's that for good? How is it good? The cold sweat on Wu Qing's forehead flowed, but he couldn't think of a way.

"Third uncle, don't panic." Wu Ji came to Wu Qing's side and comforted him.

"Hmmm! Ji'er, you are a reader, you have a lot of knowledge, think of a way. As soon as Wu Qing saw Wu Ji, it was like seeing a savior: "Ji'er, you must think of a way, this is about the lives of two hundred people." ”

He also knew that the Song army was cruel, and he did a lot of things to kill the people and take the plunge.

"It's so majestic!" Wu Ji sneered and greeted him.

It's good not to see Wu Ji, as soon as he saw Wu Ji, Luo Yuansheng screamed like a cat with his tail stepped on: "It's all you, it's all you, you, forcing the brothers to hunt bears." The brothers have suffered heavy casualties, and I want you to feel well. ”

"Humph!" Wu Ji snorted coldly and said, "Heavy casualties? Twenty soldiers, can't kill a bear, say it, do you still have face? I'm ashamed of you! ”

"You, you, you ......" Luo Yuansheng gave Wu Ji this excitement, annoyed and angry, and roared angrily: "I want you not to die well!" It's not good to die! ”

"Twenty people who eat military salaries can't kill bears, and they are still shouting here, are you afraid that no one will know? Can you kill the people of Wujiazhuang? Don't say that you only have 20 people, except for the injured, but only 16 people, you want to commit murder and kill all the people in Wujiazhuang? Wu Ji didn't seem to see Luo Yuansheng's fierce appearance, the corners of his mouth cracked, and he was very disdainful: "As long as one of the people in Wujiazhuang runs out, your crimes will be exposed." ”

"So what? We are killing the enemy, we are killing the Liaogou, I will only make meritorious contributions! Luo Yuansheng didn't care anymore, when he mentioned the meritorious service, he couldn't help but feel his heart move, and he couldn't wait to do it immediately.

"I'm Xiucai, if I die, the government will send someone to investigate. With the wisdom of Lord Zheng, you will not be unable to find out your crimes, and at that time, you will wait for military justice to do it! Wu Ji had to pull up Xiucai's tiger skin.

I have to say that in the Song Dynasty, the status of scholars was quite high, and this tiger skin was accurate. If Wu Ji really killed the Song army, the county magistrate of Guixin County would come to investigate, after all, Xiucai is different from ordinary people.

"This place is full of mountains, the people of Wujiazhuang are the most familiar with this place, if you want to kill them all, it is a dream! The people of Wujiazhuang only need to hide in the mountains, and you don't want to find them. Wu Ji didn't allow Luo Yuansheng to take action, and said loudly again.

Luo Yuansheng turned his neck and looked around, all he saw was the mountains, and the people and cats in Wujiazhuang went to the mountains, and he really couldn't help it. If there was no Wu Ji, he would have killed the people of Wujiazhuang, but with a Xiucai here, this matter would be complicated. He couldn't kill not only the people of Wujiazhuang, but it was difficult to ride a tiger in this matter, so he couldn't help but hesitate.

Wu Ji knew that the time had come, so he changed his words and said: "Bears are difficult to hunt, we in Wujiazhuang have already learned a lesson in blood, and the people in this new grave were killed by bears." It's not a shame that you didn't kill the bear. In the execution of military affairs, injuries are inevitable, and if you are injured, it is based on the merit of killing the enemy, and when you return to the army, your own military merits are waiting for you. ”

Luo Yuansheng's eyes lit up, and his light flashed, thinking that what Wu Ji said was reasonable. He lost a leg, and in anger, he didn't expect this layer, so he came to look for trouble. Now, if I can't find something, I have to think about retreating. Wu Ji is right, this is a real injury, if he returns to the army, it will definitely be a credit, and it is much more cost-effective than killing the people of Wujiazhuang.

Ready-made military exploits, without any risks!

He is also a character who has become a jing, and he shook his sentence fiercely: "You wait for the atrocities of the untouchables, the master will be handed over, and you wait for the untouchables to be punished!" Walk! ”

A group of soldiers let go of Ding Zhuang, carried and carried the wounded soldiers, and returned to Xincheng.

"Whew!" Wu Qing breathed a long sigh of relief and sat on the ground, this crisis was finally over. That's the surname of 200 people, how can he not worry.

"Brother Xiucai, you are amazing! It was said that the thieves were matched with the army! Several Ding Zhuang rushed up and threw Wu Ji up.

They had a knife on their necks, and they felt the coldness brought by the thorn knife, and thought they were dead. Unexpectedly, Wu Ji saved them as soon as he spoke.

Looking at Wu Ji who was thrown up, Yang Xiuxiu's face was happy, what regrets did she have about marrying such a husband?

"Don't throw it away! Don't throw it away! Wu Qing gasped for a while, hurriedly got up from the ground, stopped Ding Zhuang from throwing Wu Ji, and asked, "Ji'er, will there be trouble in this matter?" Do you want me to go to the county and pay tribute to Lord Zheng? ”

If you want to put an end to future troubles, you should take a trip, Wu Ji bowed slightly.

"Also, if this bear is not removed, it will definitely endanger people and animals, and this matter must be reported to Lord Zheng, please make a decision." Wu Qing never forgets to get rid of bears, which is the biggest hidden danger in Wujiazhuang.

"Let's go for a trip!" Wu Ji thought to himself that this is also the case.

"But, Ji'er, what are we going to say about this day? I'm stupid, or you can come with me. Thou art weak, and we carried thee into the city. Wu Qing thinks that it is difficult to say clearly, if he can get Wu Ji to the city, with Wu Ji's mouth, he will definitely be able to say the lotus.

It is naturally good to enter the city, but it will be tiring to people, Wu Ji naturally dispelled this idea, and whispered in Wu Qing's ear: "Third uncle, you say so and so." ”

Wu Qing couldn't help nodding with a look of admiration.

After Wu Ji finished mentioning the point, Wu Qing took a few Ding Zhuang to Guixin County. Yang Xiuxiu helped Wu Ji back to the house, lit the fire for Wu Ji, and repeatedly told Wu Ji to stay in the house, and then went to turn over the ground. Wu Ji started boring again, using boredom to pass the time.

Time passed very slowly in the boredom, Wu Ji looked forward to it, and finally it was dark. As soon as Yang Xiuxiu came back from the field, Wu Qing rushed over, and when he saw Wu Ji's face, he smiled, his face was red, and he praised him vigorously: "Ji'er, you are really a god, I will say what you taught, Lord Zheng praises me!" Praise me! ”

Although Zheng County Ling is a seven-grade sesame official, in Wu Qing's eyes, he is already a great official.

"Ji'er, Master Zheng said, no longer send troops to hunt bears, but offer a reward. Whoever can hunt bears will receive fifty thousand dollars. Wu Qing's voice suddenly turned high, a little shrill and harsh: "Fifty thousand dollars!" If I had that ability, I wouldn't have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of my life. ”

Fifty thousand dollars is fifty taels of silver, which is an astronomical amount for a countryman.
