Liu Zhutou is an old catcher in the county, and since he became the head catcher, he has captured countless ruffians, but at this time, his heart is beating, as if he is about to jump out of his throat.

Not far in front was a small land temple, standing alone in the night, silent.

Liu Zhutou's heart was fighting fiercely, he knew that if he rushed in, it was very likely to win the greatest credit tonight, as long as he caught the Japanese Kou, the future promotion and fortune were just around the corner, but he had always heard that the Japanese Kou were strong in martial arts, and if he was not careful, he might die here.

I really don't know what the martial arts of the people in the temple are, and at present, I really don't know how to deal with them, and behind me, although there are many people, they are just a flock of sheep.

Tonight, he was in charge of searching the eastern part of the city, and he was safe and sound, and he searched until the second half of the night, but he found nothing.

Slowly everyone lost the original seriousness, plus every time they knocked on a resident, they had to endure their cold gaze, when they searched, those owners followed step by step, like a thief to guard against them, for fear that they would take the sheep by the hand and take away something, so that they felt very suffocated in their hearts, they were obviously officials, but they were guarded by thieves, more than one, almost every family, several times he wanted to get angry, but thinking about it, he still held back.

At the end of the ugly time, the scope of his search was almost over, only to feel that his stomach was empty, and his hands and feet were a little numb, and he happened to find a businessman who did breakfast, and he just got up in the morning and lit a fire, ready to steam steamed buns, and the people who followed him made a noise and encouraged Liu Zhutou to eat some supper, Liu Zhutou was indeed hungry, so he threw down some silver money, and let the family burn some food at will, and fill his stomach with his brothers.

Liu Zhutou and several brothers sat in the shop, chatting while waiting, and they also heard about the fight between Zhang Zhutou and Wang Zhutou, and couldn't help laughing.

In the countryside of eastern Zhejiang, people who are generally called to eat public meals are called masters, and they are used to being called to a higher level regardless of whether they have authority or not, so this Wang Zhutou and Zhang Zhutou are actually ordinary catchers, not real headcatchers. Although they are on an errand in the county government together, the two have always been wronged, and they often make some awkward troubles, but today somehow, such a play was staged, which is really funny.

As for the later water incident, Liu Zhutou did not pay attention to it, his duty is to search and round up, can not leave at will, if he went to fight the fire, but fell into someone else's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, let the Japanese escape, he was derelict in his duty, he saw from a distance that there were many people to put out the fire, just looked up, there were many people on the street, and the fire was quickly extinguished, and it did not cause much damage.

Some people Zhuang asked Liu Zhutou, this widow has only heard of it, but he has not seen it, what does it look like? Liu Zhutou had actually never seen the Japanese Invaders, but he didn't want to show his cowardice in front of everyone, so he made up nonsense based on the testimony of several eyewitnesses today, plus some of his own understanding, and organized the language while speaking, basically saying that the appearance of these Japanese Kou was no different from ordinary people in the Ming Dynasty, but they were all brave and good at fighting, ruthless, and vague.

While they were chatting and waiting, Liu Zhutou was pushed by the people to sit on the top position, the position was facing the door, when the mouth was foaming, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a black shadow flashing outside the door, thinking that he was dazzled, but the vigilant habits he had developed for many years made him decide to check the truth, he quickly walked to the door in two steps, and looked out, but saw two people Zhuang walking towards the outside of the town against the root of the wall, looking cautious, ghostly, it didn't seem normal, so he walked out of the door and shouted to the two people: "You two, whose subordinates are they?" ,How did you run this piece?,This is the area I'm searching for.,The county has an order.,Don't go out of town.。 ”

The two men were stunned when they heard the voice, and stood stunned on the spot, but they did not turn around, stopped, looked at each other, and rushed out of the town.

Liu Zhutou was startled, and subconsciously shouted: "There is a situation, brothers, the guys, intercept these two." As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed up with a waist knife, and the people who were waiting for supper in the house suddenly overturned the stool and the table, and there was a loud noise, and then they rushed out with sticks and harpoons.

The two Minzhuang rushed out of the town, seeing a group of people behind them screaming and chasing, they couldn't help but feel anxious, and ran faster under their feet, who knows, four or five Minzhuang suddenly appeared at the end of the road, and a big man in the lead, with a leopard's head and eyes, tall and long arms, and a big knife in his hand, was Hu Changhu, a teacher of the college.

This is the last checkpoint set up by the county, they have been here for nearly a night, seeing the chickens and dogs jumping in the town from time to time, and from time to time to return to calm, this night is always startled, at the beginning of all of them are excited, as soon as they hear the wind and grass, they are full of energy, carrying weapons and eager to try, to later, seeing that there is no big deal, drowsiness will come up, all drowsy, holding weapons and shaking there.

Who knew that just a while later, there was a commotion in the distance, and when I opened my hazy sleepy eyes, it turned out that two people ran over quickly, Hu Changhu shook his big black head, and said to his subordinates: "Brothers, it seems that the matter in the town has been resolved, and this is the county Cheng sent someone to inform us to go back." "The spirit of the brave people in the countryside couldn't help but lift up, and they stayed in this ghost place for a night, although it was cooler, but there were too many mosquitoes, and they were bitten all night, which was really unbearable.

The people stretched their waists, moved the stump stake sitting under the buttocks to the side of the road, and were about to pack up and go home, but when they looked up, they saw a large group of people running behind these two people, all of them looked excited, screaming, and couldn't help but be surprised.

"Intercept them" There was a loud roar from afar, and Liu Zhutou chased after the front with a steel knife in his hand.

"Oh no, it's a wolf." I don't know who came to his senses first, shouted, and the others came to their senses at once, and immediately looked for knives and guns in a panic, and hurriedly set up a position.

The two people who rushed saw that there was an interception in front of them, and there were chasing soldiers behind, and they could not retreat, so they gritted their teeth, pulled out a Xueliang long knife from their waists, held the two knives, shouted loudly, and rushed forward.

Some of the people who came to round up the Japanese were recruited from various townships temporarily, and they usually had occasional fights, scolded the streets, or something, at most, they used their fists and feet with the villagers, and their noses and faces were swollen. Therefore, although there were many of them, they saw the people who came holding a long knife with a bright snow, rushing like a fierce tiger, they couldn't help but have weak legs, and their hearts were scared, I don't know who shouted, threw away the stick and jumped to the side, and the rest of the people were all scattered, leaving only Hu Changhu standing on the spot, holding a waist knife in both hands, and forcibly calming down.

"Ya ......" The two people who rushed to raise their long knives, their eyes were round, and they split Huashan with one move, and they came violently, the posture was like a tiger going down the mountain, unstoppable, Hu Changhu finally couldn't withstand the pressure, and was so frightened that he threw the knife in his hand to the opposite side, rolled on the ground with his big black head, and then pouted his butt and covered his head, not daring to look out again.

The knife flew out between the two fleeing men and landed far on the dirt with a "poof" sound, and the two men quickly passed the final hurdle and ran off into the distance. Hu Changhu pouted his buttocks, his whole body trembled like chaff, only to feel a gust of wind around him, he carefully exposed his head from his arm, turned his head to look, and only saw two vague figures left in the darkness.

"Bastard, coward, get up, chase me." Liu Zhu rushed up, kicked Hu Changhu is kick, and then yelled at the people behind him, and hurriedly chased down.

Hu Changhu was kicked to the ground, he was very ashamed in his heart, in this town, he has always boasted that he is a good man, he can run a horse on his fist, and he can hide a tiger on his arm, and boast to others how he followed the general to fight in the north and south, he likes the respectful eyes when others look at him, he likes to be regarded as a hero by others, although he clearly knows that in fact, he only existed as a militia when he was in the barracks, and he did not really fight, and the arrow wound on his shoulder was real, but he was only shot from behind when he escapedAt that time, the battle had just begun, everyone on his side lost their armor and fled in embarrassment, he had plucked up the courage for a long time, and he was like a fan in the escape of others, so he had to flee with him, and as a result, he was shot with an arrow, leaving a scar.

Later, he took advantage of his connections to find an errand in the academy to train those weak students, and only in these weak students did he feel his strength.

He likes this powerful feeling, he thinks that after so much time, he has forgotten his fear and has really become a hero, but today when he really encounters a life-and-death fight, he is still so cowardly, he is a deserter, this head-catcher is right, he is indeed a coward, a bastard. He watched many people running in front of him with sticks and sticks, chasing them forward, took a deep breath, got up, ran to pick up the knife he threw out, raised it in his hand, and yelled at the few villagers who were lying on the ground and still trembling in this area: "Brothers, let's chase after us and slaughter the widows." ”

People will only be afraid when they are not confident in themselves, when these people who were lying on the ground saw more than ten people chasing after them just now, the courage in their hearts suddenly rose, and at this time they all got up with a whirl, looking for their weapons, and then chased down.

Liu Zhutou led everyone to chase all the way, and kept following the two people, the two people wanted to speed up or hide in a dark place several times to avoid Liu Zhutou's pursuit, but they did not succeed, they were very anxious, from the town to now have run for several miles, those fast catchers are still stuck to their bodies like dog skin plasters, at this time the two are already panting like cattle, and their legs are also heavy, and if they continue like this, it will not be long before they will be caught up.

What to do? Do you continue to run desperately, or do you just fight to the death here? The two hesitated a little, and suddenly a small house appeared in front of them, and there was a little light, it was the land temple in the town, the two were overjoyed at first sight, and hurriedly rushed in, and then reflexively closed the door of the land temple, leaning against the wall and panting.

By the light of the Land Temple, these two people dressed as strong people showed their true faces, they were the two strangers in front of the widow's wonton stall in the morning, one was old and the other was young, the hair of the elder was no longer as elegant and neat as in the morning, but scattered, and there were even a few wisps of saliva hanging obliquely on the corners of his mouth, which looked extremely embarrassed; And the pimple on the young man's face was even more vivid at the moment, his chest rose and fell violently, and his eyes swept around vigilantly.

As soon as Liu Zhutou saw these two people enter the Land Temple, he hurriedly instructed everyone to spread out on all sides to find out if there were any other exits, and a Minzhuang came forward and said to Liu Zhutou: "Zhutou, this Land Temple has no back door, only the exit of the main gate, and two windows on the gable, you can rest assured, I am most familiar with this temple, and I can't be wrong." ”

"Well, everyone surrounds this place, you, go back and report to the county lord quickly, and ask him to quickly transfer the catchers in the county, relying on you rabble, I really don't know the bottom in my heart. Everyone is here to watch, and I forgive them for not being able to fly. Liu Zhutou said to everyone with a smile.

Listening to Liu Zhutou say that he was a rabble, these people were not angry, and one of them actually smiled flatteringly at Liu Zhutou, and then patted his chest, saying that he must do his best for the court, and then die, as long as we are here, it is a husband, ten thousand people are not open, before the words are finished, Liu Zhutou slapped the back of the head, and said with a smile: "Get out of you, do you want to learn from Zhuge Liang, or do you want to learn from Zhang Yide." Give me less poor mouths, everyone widen their eyes, even a mosquito flies in front of you, and you have to distinguish between male and female, do you hear? ”

"Yes."

"Yes."

"Order." The people agreed noisily.

"Alas!" Liu Zhutou could only bow his head and sigh, sure enough, it was a group of rabble.
