Chapter 118: Beggars

Ten days later, Yangzhou,

A beggar, with dozens of patches on his clothes, leaned under a willow tree, with a moment of dogtail in his mouth and a straw hat covering his face, and was taking a nap.

"I heard that now a reward is offered for a court criminal, as long as someone is caught, the reward is 1,000 taels of silver."

"Really? With such a high bounty, it would be nice if we could meet it. One thousand taels, enough to spend in this lifetime. ”

"Just you? Can a person with a bounty of 1,000 taels be a ruthless character? In the past, we offered a reward for a Jiangyang thief, and it is said that the kind of person who kills people without blinking an eye, and who can't get close to three or five people who catch fast, will only be rewarded with a hundred taels. ”

"I'm obedient, how powerful these thousand taels of people must be, looking at the portrait on the notice is quite gentle."

Listening to the two people talking and walking away, the beggar spit out the dogtail grass in his mouth to the side, took off the hat in his hand, and revealed a face with mud, which was actually Li Shan.

His grandmother's, the soul chaser, talks like a fart. Say it's three days?

After taking Li Shangang, he got on the boat, and the next day he saw notices all over the city, all of which were wanted by himself. Where did you dare to take a boat to Suzhou, and before anyone found it, I quickly found a place to get off the boat.

In order to disguise himself, he specially found a beggar to change clothes with him. Li Shan now clearly remembers that the beggar looked incredulous.

When Li Shan took out a piece of broken silver from his body again, the beggar directly stripped naked in front of him, and there were no underwear left.

After dressing up well, Li Shan was sure that no one would look at him when he was walking on the street now. I was relieved to hit the road. It took more than ten days to arrive in Yangzhou, and Li Shan, who was scorching under the scorching sun, rested under the tree.

In the past few days, Li Shan is frightened and has been in a hurry day and night. The body and mind are already extremely tired.

Is this a normal life? As soon as he wanted to live a stable life, he suddenly fell a big pie from the sky and forcibly turned him into a wanted criminal, or the five-star kind.

"Hey, don't you think this person looks like that wanted criminal?"

Li Shan took off his straw hat and was seen, and several people surrounded him.

"It's kind of like that."

"I really want to!"

Li Shan glanced at the few people who came up, and pretended to be a fool and said, "Hehe." A few uncles give some money. ”

Several people turned around and ran away when they heard this, "Stinky beggar, he looks like a wanted criminal." Hurt Lao Tzu Bai to be happy. ”

Li Shan pursed his lips, he had encountered this situation several times in the past few days, so it was not strange.

Yangzhou is not far from Suzhou, and Li Shan wants to hurry to Suzhou. Then find the Tuwa Lane Restaurant.

took out a few copper plates from his arms and walked to a steamed bun seller: "Little brother." Let's have a pack of steamed buns. The bun seller looked at a man named Hanako coming over, and he was disgusted, but when he saw the money, he smiled.

"Okay, your bun is ready, be careful of burning it. I see how you still look familiar. Said enthusiastically as a bun seller.

"Do you have any relatives who want to eat?" Li Shan laughed, turned around and walked out of the city.

"Dude, do you think he's the wanted criminal, I feel a little weird about being a beggar. Doesn't look like a beggar. Selling buns and telling his friend next to him

Li Shan wears a beggar's suit, but he is not really a beggar. A discerning person can still see the difference if he looks closely.

As soon as he got out of Yangzhou City, Li Shan felt that he was being targeted by two people, and the worrying itinerary in the past few days has indeed made Li Shan grow a lot.

Coming to a secluded place, the two of them had already followed Li Shan.

"Hehe, two uncles, give me a copper plate." Li Shan still uses this trick.

"Hehe, I think you're the wanted criminal, how about brother, I'm not wrong. I could have seen that something was wrong with this guy, how could a poor beggar have the money to buy buns? ”

It turned out to be the guy who sold buns, with an accomplice, and a notice in his hand, contrasting.

"Two big brothers, you think too much, that's not me, my money was given by well-wishers." Li Shan pretended to be pitiful.

"Catch him, don't care if he's not, anyway, he looks so similar, maybe he can really get a bounty when the time comes." The steamed bun seller looked at Li Shan, feeling as if he was watching another delicious meal.

Li Shan felt that something was wrong, and these two people were determined to arrest him. If this is really caught by the government, it will be difficult to do, and maybe he will really die here.

"Hehe, brother, buddy, I took a silver bounty to honor you." As he spoke, the two men rushed up.

Li Shan ran away, and the two of them were also in hot pursuit.

Li Shan's physical strength is much stronger now than before, at least he won't be out of breath after running for a while.

In order to bypass the two, Li Shan ran into the grass and woods. Seeing a reed swinging next to him, Li Shan plunged into it.

"Don't let him run away, that guy must be a wanted criminal, a thousand taels of silver," the two of them saw Li Shanran's panic and became more convinced, and they were already crazy.

"He's there, in the water, grab him." The two jumped into the water one after another.

Li Shan regretted it as soon as he entered the water, these two people are from Yangzhou, and they are soaked in water every day, and Li Shan's water nature is naturally inferior to them. It didn't take long for them to catch up. And in the water, Li Shanxiang had no way to struggle.

The two people caught up with Li Shan and pressed Li Shan into the water, Li Shan's head was pressed into the water, and the man didn't let go when he saw that the air in his lungs was almost gone.

"Tell you kid to run, you run." The bun seller said triumphantly.

The other said, "Let him get up, don't die, you won't get the reward." ”

"Oh yes," the bun seller grabbed Li Shan's hair and dragged Li Shan up, "Hehe, boy, I didn't expect you to be a wanted criminal worth a thousand taels, it's really a pie falling from the sky." ”

The two of them dragged Li Shan ashore, and then used reeds to weave a rope to tie Li Shan's hands, and rummaged through Li Shan's body.

"Shout, there's a lot of stuff. With such a big ingot of silver and a dagger, you kid is really not an ordinary person. What is this. The seller of steamed buns turned Li Shan's whole body over, and asked Li Shan with a palm thunder.

"Two big brothers, I give you all the pinching energy on my body, you let me go, I really don't know that wanted criminal, but I look a little similar to that wanted criminal, so I dress up like this to hide people's eyes. How can you say that I am a wanted criminal with a reward of 1,000 taels? Li Shan continued to try to convince the two.

"This guy has a point, buddy, let's take the money and go. There's no need to really send him to the government. If you send the wrong person, you will be beaten by the board. ”

"What are you afraid of, this money is ours anyway, if he is really a wanted criminal, but there are a thousand taels of silver. You are stupid, you don't want a thousand taels of silver? "The one who sells steamed buns is determined to send Li Shan to the government.

Li Shan's face sank, and it seemed that there was no way. Secretly he was already untying his rope, and the straw rope made of reeds could easily break free.

"Two big brothers, you can take the silver, but can you leave that little iron ball for me. That thing is important. Li Shan said deliberately.

As soon as Li Shan said this, it immediately aroused the vigilance of the two people, and the bun seller immediately took the iron ball in his hand and said: "You say, what is this, is it a treasure, it seems that you are wanted because of this, you want to deceive us?" No way. ”

Li Shan sneered in his heart, but said with a weak look on his face: "No, how could I lie to you." Don't hit it. ”

As soon as Li Shan reminded him, the seller of steamed buns also saw that there was a small plug on the iron ball, so he pulled it off easily, and leaned in with one eye to look at it.

Li Shan silently recited in his heart that God has the virtue of a good life, and quietly took two steps back.

"Boom" palm thunder exploded directly in front of the steamed bun seller, and the person next to him was also affected.

"Ah, my eyes." It was another person who spoke, and the bun seller had been killed directly.

Li Shan was ruthless, rushed over and picked up the dagger on the ground, and stabbed it directly at the person's heart. One of the man's eyes was blown up, but he still saw Li Shan coming, reached out and grabbed Li Shan's dagger, and his hands immediately flowed blood.

"Please, don't kill me. It's not me who wants to arrest you, it's the guy who wants to arrest you. Don't kill me, I still have a wife and children at home, you can spare me, uncle. The man clutched Li Shan's dagger tightly and begged for mercy.

Li Shan's heart was also unbearable, and his hand unconsciously loosened. The man looked at Li Shan stunned, and grabbed Li Shan's hand violently and fought with Li Shan.

"If you want to kill me, I might as well kill you first." The man said fiercely, Li Shan was not to be outdone, and directly knocked that person down and pressed him down.

Both of them were fighting for the ownership of the dagger, but after all, Li Shan was not injured, and slowly pointed the tip of the dagger towards the person, using the weight of his body to press the dagger into his body.

The man's face was hideous, and he slowly stopped moving, and died.

Li Shan was also red-faced, lying on the ground gasping for breath. Smelling the smell of blood next to him, looking at the man's dead and still open eyes, Li Shan felt sick to his stomach for a while, and ran to the river to vomit all the food he ate.

I killed someone, I killed someone. Although Li Shan has also seen the fire merger, and even participated in the fire merger, but it is the first time to do it himself, thinking that a living life has disappeared in his own hands, Li Shan feels sick for a while.

put away his things, Li Shan knew that this place could not stay for a long time, so it was better to hurry up and go to Suzhou, these two people would leave too many traces here, but Li Shan did not have the ability to bury these two people. I could only pick up some hay and burn two people, at least to cover up some traces.

"Why did you two arrest me, I didn't want to kill you. But if you look for death, you can't blame me. Although he killed someone, Li Shan quickly adjusted his mentality.

He knew that the real ordeal had just begun, and that he would have to face a lot of murderous demons and even more terrible executioners. (To be continued.) )
