After Qu Rong left, Zhong Wuregret took off his leather armor and handed it to the middle-aged man: "You put it on, whether you can survive or not depends on luck, this thing is a burden on me." ”

The middle-aged man was moved to tears, and he kowtowed to Zhong Wuregret: "If you don't die today, Jiang's life is the master's!" ”

Seeing that Qu Rong had left, Dou Ji became majestic again, and he shouted to Zhong Wuregret: "For the sake of the county lord's face, as long as you keep the house slave, I can spare you from death." ”

Dou Ji is worthy of being a character, he knows that at this time, the cheap can't let Doufu take all of it, as the saying goes: The rabbit is anxious and bites! Besides, looking at Qu Rong's maintenance of Zhong Wuregret, he didn't know what the relationship between Zhong Wuregret and the county prince was, if it wasn't for the county prince's valued figure, today's matter, would he still be afraid that Zhong Wuregret would escape from his palm?

Zhong Wuregret replied: "If this person is your slave, I will naturally not be able to protect him, but he is just a doorman who has thrown himself into your Doufu, and he will be put to death just because of a trivial matter. Moreover, who other talented people will dare to vote for you in the future? ”

Dou Ji said angrily: "Nonsense! Our master treats guests like guests, and your lies are nothing more than trying to save the life of this damn house slave, how can I let you succeed in your plot. It's not for the county public's sake, I would have pierced your heart with a thousand arrows from this slave. ”

"I'm so scared!" Zhong Wuregret patted his chest exaggeratedly, but there was no trace of fear in his actions, and the surrounding onlookers laughed unconsciously, diluting the tension of the sword drawing a lot.

Zhong Wuregret heard that the accent of this guest seemed to be very different from that of Chu State, and he asked Dou Ji: "You said that he is a house slave, did he come all the way to your Dou Mansion to be a house slave?" Do you have gold and silver bricks for people to pick up? ”

The crowd burst into laughter.

Dou Ji said angrily: "He is a slave because of his crime. "At that time, he was not a slave for his crime, and he was guilty of his crime

Zhong Wuregret just wanted to provoke him to lie, and when his goal was achieved, he immediately asked: "In this case, can you bring Dan Shu?" Zhong Wuregret concluded that in a short period of time, it was impossible for Doufu and Ben to forge a Dan book that proved the domestic slave.

"There is no reason not to bring it." After that, Dou Ji pretended to touch his arms and said, "Oh, because the pursuit is very urgent, I put it on my body in the house." ”

"With your mouth, if you say that you are a house slave, you are a house slave. If I say that you are my slave, will not the soldiers who guard you be the sinners who shelter the slaves? Zhong Wuregret teased.

The onlookers laughed, and some of the people who watched from the building even clapped the railings and applauded.

The Spring and Autumn Period was an era of great changes from a slave society to a feudal society, and the political turmoil was turbulent, and many ordinary people were freed slaves by "being exempted from being subordinate to others", and there were also some clan and tribal members who were originally on an equal footing with the nobles, and due to social changes they were reduced to oppressed and exploited commoners, and they naturally sympathized with Zhong Wuregret and the middle-aged man who was rescued by him.

In addition, Doufu is rampant and domineering on weekdays, bullying the weak, and the common people, everyone hates them to the core, just because Doufu is too powerful, everyone can only swallow their breath, and today they see people who are not afraid of Doufu and dare to mock Douji in front of the armor, which makes them very happy, shouting and cheering for Zhong Wuregret.

The reputation of "Black Hat Man" who was not afraid of rape and sacrificed his life to save slaves quickly spread among the crowd.

At this time, in a restaurant near the city gate, a scribe dressed as a commoner was looking out of the window, and he said to a strong man beside him, "Find out who this son is?" ”

The strong man said, "This son will die at any time, do you want to save his life first?" ”

The scribe shook his head: "If he can't escape the fate of an arrow piercing his heart at this time, it can only prove that this son is just the courage of a villain who dies lightly and violently, and he is not of great use." ”

"But ......" The strong man wanted to speak and swallow, he knew that this scribe generally did not allow others to talk about it, but he thought to himself: "Stay in the study every day, how do you know that the battlefield is dangerous, and the sword and bow are ruthless." In his opinion, Zhong Wuregret will definitely die in this situation.

In the laughter of the people, Dou Ji's face was red and white for a while. No matter how powerful he is, he is afraid of stirring up a civil uprising in the county! He quietly winked at one of the archers, who used the soldiers as cover and fired an arrow at Zhong Wuregret.

"Dang!" With a bang, I didn't see how Zhong Wuregret drew his sword, but saw him shoot down the hidden arrow with his sword.

"Fluke! By the skin of one's teeth! Although Zhong Wuregret was afraid in his heart, he still pretended to be righteous and said: "I can't imagine that Doufu actually dares to only cast cold arrows from behind, such evil deeds, wouldn't it tarnish my reputation as a dignified Chu State, Ling Yin, who is bright and upright, loves his son like a people, is wise and wise, diligent, and hard-working?" ”

Then he raised his hands to the sky and said loudly: "Our noble Ling Yin, I miss you!" For the sake of the strength of the Chu State, you have worked hard day and night, but,"

Speaking of this, Zhong Wuregret angrily pointed at Dou Ji and said: "Because of the existence of this wicked person, Doufu is like a disgusting maggot crawling on a plate of delicious food. ”

Rejoice! The people's denunciation and ridicule of the "Black Hatsakers" were thunderous and joyful.

In fact, Zhong Wuregret is dragging a lot of nonsense, buying time for himself, and he has taken this opportunity to tell the coachman to secretly untie the reins of the horse.

In addition, the car is also equipped with a large wooden barrel for bathing, which is not long ago Zhong Wuregret will be customized, he has been looking forward to the romantic mood of the mandarin duck bath, so he quietly ordered one, and today is preparing to transport it back.

He himself also scanned the escape route in Hu Kan, just waited for the third drum of the fighting season, then got into the barrel, quickly rolled to the corner of the street, as long as he could avoid the arrows, he had no reason to be afraid, with his own strength, borrowing the streets and alleys, it should not be a problem to find a way to leave the county.

When the drum sounded, the archer still had a process of opening the bow, and he thought about taking advantage of this brief moment.

He is not afraid of armor soldiers at all, and no one is his opponent in hand-to-hand combat. He was afraid of the bow and arrow, and the arrow that had just crossed the place that he had been treated as a thief had kept him in a state of apprehension.

At the same time, he secretly instructed Jiang and the coachman that if he fled, the first round of arrows would inevitably be fired at him, and the coachman and Jiang managed to overturn the carriage and use the body of the carriage as a cover to flee before the second round of arrows arrived.

When the scribe standing in front of the window heard Zhong Wuregret's words, he couldn't help but laugh, and the strong man beside him was even more happy and laughed.

The scribe in front of the window said to himself: "It's too much for him to force each other like this, doesn't he know that in order to save face, Dou Ji may kill the killer regardless of all the consequences." Did he do this with some other motives? ”

The idea is reversed, and the opposite direction is true. In fact, Zhong Wuregret did this, his thoughts were very simple, one was to delay time and take the opportunity to find the best escape route; The second is to buy time for Qu Rong as much as possible, so that she can arrange for Cao Yun'e to escape as soon as possible, in case something happens to him, Doufu will not dare to go to the county prince's mansion to bully the martyr's family, right?

At that time, the urban commoners accounted for a large proportion of the city's total population, some of them were the children of declining nobles, some were samurai, some were cloth cloth people, and some were intellectuals with "wisdom and magic". If the "heroes" in their hearts shed blood and tears, once the crowd is excited, it is difficult to say whether the fighting government can protect itself, because the "civil violence" they caused is to blame.

At that time, the rulers of various countries had to try to stabilize their people in order to maintain their rule. What's more, Doufu is just a distant clan of Ling Yin Douqi.

In the eyes of the powerful princes, women are just a commodity and playthings, and even ordinary people think so, so there are many people who send their wives to be prostitutes, and the scribes watching the war in front of the window will not dream that Zhong Wuregret will think about his wife, but think that Zhong Wuregret has other intentions.

At this time, the embarrassed and angry Dou Ji had lost his mind and was ready to put Zhong Wuregret and the middle-aged man to death regardless of the consequences.

Just when his right hand was raised high, and it had not yet fallen. "Stop!" A light drink sounded near Dou Ji, although it was a light drink, it shook people's hearts.

Dou Ji glanced at it, only to see an old blacksmith man coming over, Dou Ji sneered, and before he could scold, he saw a golden thing in the palm of the old blacksmith's hand shaking in front of his eyes.

Dou Ji opened his mouth and was stunned, because the old blacksmith's movements were very fast and extremely secretive, and no one else could see anything clearly, they only said that someone was coming out to fight unevenly. This time, the surrounding people clamored even more.

The old blacksmith man held a sword in his hand and said, "I can't kill you, but I can kill myself, if you insist on killing this chivalrous man, I will give my life to fight the mansion, don't mess with my Dachu." ”

Dou Ji's mouth opened a few times, but he didn't spit out a word.

The old blacksmith man continued: "The strong enemy is watching around my Great Chu, if you kill this hero, cause civil violence, and the strong enemy takes advantage of the weakness, the Doufu will be the culprit of messing with my Great Chu, do you know what kind of result?" Don't get out of here! ”

Under an angry shout, the surrounding people all sweated for the old blacksmith man, but he didn't expect that the arrogant Dou Ji was like a defeated chicken, and lowered his head and said to the soldiers: "Go home!" ”

"Yo-he-" The crowd cheered.

As soon as Dou Ji left, the city gate was opened, and Zhong Wuregret did not accept the blessings of the people, but hurried back to the "Luming Garden" in a carriage. It was hard for him to imagine what kind of reaction someone among the people would have after they knew that he was a famous "lewd thief" in the Chu State.

As soon as Dou Ji left, the strong man in the restaurant breathed a sigh of relief.

The scribe in front of the window smiled and said, "This little trick is trying to hide people's eyes?" It's too underestimated! ”

The strong man was stunned and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"A little blacksmith actually said something deafening, do you believe it?"

"I don't know." The strong man replied honestly.

"It seems that I won't be able to leave for a while, let's go, go back to the inn first." After the scribe finished speaking, he took the strong man with him.

Zhong Wuregret hurried back to the "Luming Garden", and as soon as he entered the mansion as a new house, he saw Cao Yun'e and Qu Rong arguing about something, and everyone was stunned when they saw Zhong Wuregret.

"Brother Zhong!" "Husband!" With the shouting, Qu Rong and Cao Yun'e both threw themselves into their arms, he hugged one and said with a dry smile: "Haha, what are you fighting for?" ”

At this time, Qu Rong found that she actually threw herself into the arms of her husband in front of other people's wives, and she hurriedly said: "Sister E, I'm not ...... I just ......" and ran away without looking back.

"You don't blame her, do you?" Zhong Wuregret asked cautiously, only those who pass by on the field of life and death can truly understand the value of friendship.

"How could I be, she was afraid that if you didn't come back, the Doufu would come to bully me and ask me to go with her and live in the county mansion, but, do you know?" Cao Yun'e looked at Zhong Wuregret affectionately and said: "If something happens to you, I won't live alone, this place is where we get married, and if I die, I will be buried here with you." ”

"Yun'e," Zhong Wuregret called out movingly.

"Not yet." Cao Yun'e called Lingxiang angrily, and said to Zhong Wuregret: "As soon as this girl heard that you had an accident, she cried until now, look at it, her eyes are swollen from crying." ”

Waiting for Lingxiang to walk to Zhong Wuregret's side, Zhong Wuregret took her into his arms, and said with a lewd smile: "Okay, okay, don't you think I'm good?" Tonight, let's put on a show for the three of us to comfort your fertilized body. ”

"What's the show?" Lingxiang asked puzzled.

"The show, haha, that's it, it's something we can only do together." Zhong Wuregret said with a dry smile.

Unexpectedly, before the show started in the evening, the "Luming Garden" was haunted.
