Chapter 31: Rescuing the Orions
Knowing the cause and effect of the incident, Xiao Guozi scratched his head and asked Professor Zhang: "Sir, it stands to reason that the grandfather of this step is not much wrong, it is just a misunderstanding, and it should be released after figuring it out, right?" β
Professor Zhang sighed, "I originally thought the same way, but I heard it later, some people said that the reason why they didn't release the Wu Orion was because they escaped this time and killed and injured a number of people who were strong and brave, and the government needed an excuse to avoid the people saying that they were incompetent, and this excuse could only be the Wu Orion, it is said that they were charged with the crime of banditry, which can kill the head at best." β
"Huh?!" Xiao Guozi and Buzang took a breath of cool air together, hurriedly stepped forward, and anxiously pulled Professor Zhang's robe and begged, "Sir, please do well, rescue Grandpa Wu." β
"I'll do my best!" Professor Zhang sighed.
*************************************************
Two days later, there was still no movement from the government, and Xiao Guozi and Wu Buzang were so anxious that they jumped up and down, but they were helpless.
After school this day, the little fat man also came, he had already heard what had happened, and he was at a loss, and he couldn't think of a good way, so he could only comfort Xiao Buzang with gentle words, and the three of them sat on the rockery on the rockery, holding their heads with their hands, with a serious face.
"If only I knew martial arts, I could fly the eaves and walk the walls, come and go without a trace, so that I would jump into the prison and rescue Grandpa Wu." The little fat man has always wanted to be a chivalrous man flying around, perhaps the fatter people are, the more they yearn for the gravitational pull of the earth, and he has an unusual yearning for flying eaves and walls.
"My grandfather knows martial arts, if he doesn't want to be arrested, those people will definitely not be able to catch him, he must be willing to be arrested this time." Buzo said.
"Oh." The little fat man and the little pot looked at Xiao Buzang expressionlessly, and then turned their heads around, each thinking of a solution, but they didn't think so, this is really a child's idea, people always feel that their father or grandfather can do anything, everything when they are young, they are a giant, a mountain, there is no difficulty to get, but as the child grows older, he will slowly find that in fact, they are ordinary people, they will also be afraid, they will be afraid, and they may even be the weakest one in the crowd.
Xiao Guozi was very depressed, because he found that he was really useless and couldn't help Buzang a little.
At the beginning, he also used to think the same as the little fat man, if there is a good martial arts, then he can rush forward, one by one, kill all the guards who are guarding, and be happy to take revenge, but then wander the world with Grandpa Wu and Xiao Buzang.
However, after he calmed down, Xiao Guozi felt that he was still too naΓ―ve, he knew that even if he had martial arts to the sky, he couldn't mess around, because it was the government, which represented the imperial court, not to mention that he didn't know if there was a possibility of success, but if he succeeded, what should he do in the future? Wandering forever? Be a fugitive? Or hide in a secluded cave forever, like a mouse?
No, it's not the life I want, I still have so much to do, at least I still need to find out about the massacre of the village, I still have to avenge my family, I can't be impulsive.
"You guys are here, let me find it." Suddenly, a crisp voice sounded in their ears, and the three of them turned their heads to see that it was Xiuxiu, Xiuxiu saw that Buzang was also there, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly ran up to take Buzang's hand, but found that Buzang was crying with a sad face, pursed his mouth, and asked strangely: "Buzang, what's wrong?" Whoever bullied you, tell me, and I'll settle accounts with him. β
Xiao Guozi told Xiuxiu about the arrest of Wu Orion, Xiuxiu stared at a pair of beautiful big eyes and said: "Grandpa Wu will also be arrested for doing good deeds, no, I'll tell my father, he and the county magistrate often play chess together, and the relationship is very good, I asked my dad to tell the county magistrate, and quickly release Grandpa Wu." β
"Really?" The three children jumped up with excitement and gathered around Xiuxiu.
"Of course, my dad is the most powerful dad in the world." Xiuxiu boasted proudly.
"Then you hurry up and tell your father, hurry up and release Grandpa Wu, you see that Buzang has been crying for several days." The small pot said to Xiuxiu.
"Well, you wait, I'll go back to Daddy now." After Xiuxiu finished speaking, she ran away on the ground.
****************************************
Zhao Mengyu, the county magistrate, has been feeling a little screwed up on everything recently, he doesn't like this feeling, for example, about the matter of the widows, when he obviously hoped the most, but what he was waiting for was disappointment, obviously he was already disappointed, and hope came to his head in a strange way, and when he waited for the final result of the matter with the idea of possible success, the result really surprised and delighted him.
He didn't expect that dozens of people went to encircle and suppress four people and killed seven or eight people, and when the county escorted the Japanese back, those people were all depressed, looking like they had lost the battle, and they were really angry as much as they wanted.
Zhao Xianling was still a little angry, feeling that his ability to control was declining, and the county Cheng caught a hunter, on the grounds that this hunter was harboring thieves, and he resisted by force when the government was chasing him, but he learned through inquiry that this black hunter was just because he unintentionally released the beast and injured people, and he was psychologically uneasy, and he treated others, and he didn't really want to harbor criminals, everything should be a misunderstanding, and he wanted to release the black hunter immediately, but Wang Xiancheng was extremely opposed and said a lot of reasons, Zhao Xianling knew, This is because Wang Xiancheng wanted to divert everyone's attention and deliberately found a scapegoat, although he was unhappy in his heart, he didn't want to hurt the harmony with Xiancheng and tear his face, so although he was unwilling, he didn't object to put Wu Orion in prison.
Zhao Xianling originally thought that with the capture of this widow, many of the original dead knots could be untied one by one, for example, was the village extermination incident in Wanzi County done by them? How many people are there in their county? What is the purpose? Did the several moles arrested by Wang Xiancheng last time really collude with them? These problems that have been unsolvable will all be solved because of the capture of this widow, and then he can make the next arrangement, if there are only these two widows, then report their crimes to the state government, and the state government will make the final decision, if there are still a large number of people behind, then another way of thinking is needed.
The result of the matter is often contrary to his own assumptions, when he confidently brought the Japanese out for interrogation, only to find that everything was not quite the same as he imagined, because he encountered the simplest but most difficult problem, what he said was not understood by the Japanese Kou, and he did not understand what the Japanese said, during the interrogation, he talked about his, the Japanese talked about the Japanese Kou, and his catchers were like ducks listening to thunder, and the paperwork was also at a loss, and the so-called confessions, people said a lot, but the materials he had here were zero, I thought everything was going to be solved, but in the end I found that everything seemed to be back to square one.
Zhao County ordered to seek talents, in the county posted the list of talents, looking for a talent who understands the Chinese language, promised a lot of money, but there has been no movement in the past two days, just now he ordered his subordinates, the list of more copies of a number of copies, be sure to post everywhere in the county, do not leave a dead end.
What are these two widows here for? Do they still have accomplices? Where did the guy who ran away flee to? This question has been haunting the county magistrate's mind, which makes him bored.
He was pacing back and forth in the garden, thinking about his thoughts, when the official suddenly came to report that Luo Juren wanted to see him, Zhao Xianling thought for a while, and ordered: "Please have tea in his study, and I will arrive later." β
When Zhao Xianling came to the study, Luo Juren was standing in the room admiring the calligraphy and paintings on the wall, heard footsteps, turned around, and bowed his hand to the county order: "Brother Sixian, the younger brother is polite." I haven't seen it for a few days, and I don't want my brother's pen to be more powerful and powerful, and the books on this wall are becoming more and more incisive, which makes me ashamed! β
Zhao Xianling waved his hand, smiled modestly, and then asked Luo Juren to sit down, said a few words, and then leaned over and asked, "I don't know if Brother Qiuhong came to the cold house, what do you think?" β
Luo Juren asked: "I heard that a few days ago, I caught a Japanese robber, but I don't know why this Japanese robber came to our county?" A few days ago, I also heard about the actions of some Japanese robbers in other places, which is simply indignant to people and gods, and now I heard that the imperial court also has a headache for the Japanese robbers, and the foolish brother, as the leader of the local squire, is really worried, so he came to inquire and asked Brother Sixian for forgiveness. After speaking, he arched his hand towards Zhao County.
"Alas! Brother Qiuhong, I won't hide it from you, my brother is also anxious now, at a loss, no one in the county understands the Japanese language, how can I judge it, there is really no way for my brother, and now I am recruiting talents in the county, hoping that there will be people who understand the Japanese language to recommend themselves, but it is really not good, and they will be escorted to the state in a few days, and the decision will be made by Shangguan. Zhao Xianling sighed.
"I heard that the county also caught a hunter, I don't know what crime this person has received?" Luo Juren asked.
"This black hunter, in fact, there is no big deal, because he has taken in these two widows, and when Wang Xiancheng was arresting the widows, he once obstructed and influenced the county to arrest the widows, so Wang Xiancheng arrested him, the purpose was just to teach him a lesson, and now Wang Xiancheng was frustrated by the arrest of the widows, and he was angry, so he was temporarily imprisoned, and after the matter is over, he will be released." Zhao County's order was humane to Luo Ju.
"Brother Sixian, since there is nothing wrong with this black hunter, a little punishment is enough, I heard that this black hunter has a little grandson at home, four or five years old, and the grandfather and grandson depend on each other, if the black hunter is locked up for a long time, the little grandson may have no one to take care of him, and his life is worrying, and I hope that my brother will govern the people with benevolence and love, and give rain and dew grace, which is also a merit." Luo Ju is humane.
Zhao Xian Ling nodded when he heard this, thought about it with his beard, and then raised his head and smiled at Luo Juren: "Brother Qiuhong, because you are so interested in a hunter, do you know this person?" β
Luo Juren put down the tea bowl in his hand, shook his head and said with a smile: "I really don't know this black orion, but this black orion's grandson and my family Xiuxiu somehow became good friends, I saw that this little guy was pitiful, so I decided to ask about the situation, if the black orion really violated the national law, then I really don't dare to comment nonsense." β
"Hehe, Brother Qiuhong, you are too worried, then you go back and tell Xiuxiu, saying that in a few days, you will release the black hunter, and ask her not to be impatient." Zhao Xianling said with a smile.
"Brother Sixian said that he laughed, then I will thank Uncle Zhao on behalf of Xiuxiu." Luo Juren arched his hand.
**********************************************
Hearing the news that Luo Juren brought back, Xiuxiu and a few children jumped up happily, Xiuxiu held up her small chest and said, "I said that my father is the most powerful!" You see, as soon as my father came out of the horse, he was successful, Buzang, don't worry, grandpa will come out soon. β
"Well, thank you, Uncle Ro." Buzo's little face, which had been gloomy for a few days, finally showed a smile.
The little pot and the little fat man were also sincerely happy, the matter was solved, just like the dark clouds dispersed and the sun came out, but they didn't know that things were not as simple as they imagined, and there was a big change immediately, this time, the life of the little pot once again turned a huge turn and went to a different life.
