Chapter 124: Natural and Man-made Disasters
Li ...... Master Lee? The old man was stunned, but soon he reacted, hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said: "It turned out to be the eldest master, the little old man has no eyes, and I hope that the eldest master will not blame." ”
Li Canghai hurriedly helped the two old men up and said, "Old man, you just listen to me, stay in the village in front for two days, and I will definitely send someone to pick you up and return to Zhengyang County." Ah Xu, you go and stop all the people, let them all gather in the front village, remember to get more food for all the villagers. ”
Kang Xu nodded yes, and then went to the main road to dissuade the people.
"Xiaohua, you must listen to your grandparents, you can't run around, and your uncle will send someone to pick you up in two days." Li Canghai took out the money bag from his waist and stuffed it into the old man, beckoned Xiaohua to come over, took the only remaining box of snacks from the carriage to her, patted her head, and said gently.
"Canghai, why are there so many refugees?" Di Qing had been taking care of the sleeping fan in the carriage, and she didn't know what was going on, so she asked curiously.
Li Canghai jumped into the carriage and said deeply: "Natural disasters are unavoidable, right and wrong, talk while walking, drive!" ”
There was a whip snap, and with the sound of a horse, the carriage rolled up dust and drove away.
In the evening, Li Canghai drove to Zhengyang County.
At this time, the gate of Zhengyang County was closed, and there were many refugees who had fled by the city wall, looking at the city wall.
On the city wall, several officials patrolled back and forth, and a bonfire was set up on it, which seemed to be cooking food and wafting with fragrance.
"Listen to the official upstairs, come down and open the door quickly, and let us enter the city!" Li Canghai reined in his horse and shouted loudly.
"The county lieutenant has an order, the city gate will be closed at three o'clock, and no one is allowed to enter!" An official shouted.
"How can this be reasonable, county lieutenant, who gave him the right to make him act so recklessly?" Li Canghai scolded sharply.
"You're so bold, you don't even pay attention to the county lieutenant, look at the arrow!" The official snorted, picked up the bow and arrow, and shot directly at Li Canghai.
With a bang~, the arrow was inserted directly into the front of the horse, causing the officials of the city wall to laugh.
"Boy, dare to despise the county lieutenant, do you still want to go into the city? If you want to enter the city, be honest with the uncles, hand over ten taels of silver, and the uncles will naturally let you in, otherwise you will obediently stay outside! Several officials held chicken legs in their hands and laughed proudly.
Li Canghai's face was gloomy, and without waiting for him to speak, Di Qing directly opened the curtain and rushed out of the carriage.
The three-zhang high city wall, I saw that her toes were lightly clicked, and she went up directly.
Between the sleeves of his coat flying, only a few miserable howls were heard, and several officials were immediately thrown down from the city wall.
"Oops~."
"It hurts, it hurts me!"
At a height of three zhang high, several officials who fell screamed miserably, lying on the ground and rolling straight.
After doing all this, Di Qing jumped down directly, her clothes fluttering, like a fairy of the Nine Heavens, landed on the carriage lightly and quickly, and returned to the carriage in an instant.
All this happened between the lightning and flint, and if it weren't for the fact that he saw several officials rolling on the ground, Li Canghai would have wondered if he was hallucinating.
Li Canghai jumped out of the carriage, walked to the side of several officials, stared at them condescendingly, and said coldly: "As a government officer, but you are careless about people's lives, whose power are you fighting for?" ”
"Stinky boy, do you know who you're offending against? I'm the county lieutenant's brother, if you offend us, you will offend the county lieutenant, and you still want to enter the city? Beware of a life in and a life out! The servant's aching body twitched, but he still grinned and cursed.
"Oh, you're the county lieutenant's brother, then I've really offended you." Li Canghai sneered, he bent down and picked up the feather arrow stuck in the ground, walked in front of the officer, suddenly stepped on the man's wrist, and then slammed the feather arrow into his palm.
"Ah~!"
A heart-rending cry of pain came from afar, and the official almost fainted without pain.
"Great, great, be merciful, be merciful!" At this moment, the city gate suddenly opened, and a fat man ran out of it.
This fat man is none other than Chang Feng, who he has seen in Luofengji, at this time he has taken off his fast suit and changed into a bad suit to guard the city gate, it seems that according to what Li Canghai said, he has become a guard.
"Chang Tou, you came just in time, go and tell the county lieutenant that someone is going to rebel!" The servant rolled his eyes in pain, and when he saw Chang Feng running, he hurriedly shouted.
Chang Feng trembled in fright, and scolded: "Close your beak, you fucking rebelled, blinded your dog's eyes, don't you even know the county order?" ”
"County ...... Cause? The official was stunned, he looked at Li Canghai for a while, and then looked at Chang Feng's respectful expression, his face suddenly turned pale.
"Big ...... My lord, spare your life! The villain has eyes and no beads, offends the adult, the villain deserves to die, the villain deserves to die. The official almost cried, he secretly called it unlucky, and the new county commander had only met him once, and he had long forgotten it, not to mention that what they had seen before was Kang Xu.
"I thought that you were at most derelict in your duties and passive and slacking off, but I didn't expect that you were all evil officials who treated human life like a mustard. Since you have fallen into the hands of this official, this official will make an example of him today! Li Canghai raised his eyebrows, shouted angrily, and suddenly pulled out the feather arrow from the officer's hand.
The servant let out a scream like killing a pig, rolled his eyes, and fainted in pain.
The remaining officials knelt on the ground tremblingly, not daring to raise their heads.
"In the future, if there is a bullying and bullying of the people, he will be your fate!" Li Canghai casually broke the feather arrow into two, and said coldly: "This person has bad deeds and tries to assassinate this official, and this official now sentences him to 200 battles, drive him out of the yamen, and never be hired!" ”
The officials were so frightened that they kowtowed again and again, screaming for mercy.
"My lord, why don't you say a word when you come, the villain is going to greet you!" Chang Feng hurriedly stepped forward and nodded and said.
Li Canghai stared at him and couldn't help but sneer: "Chang Feng, don't think that this official can't see what you think in your heart, since you have already seen this official coming, why didn't you stop him when he released his arrows?" I'm afraid that in your heart, you also want to give this official a dismissal, right? ”
Chang Feng was frightened with cold sweat on his forehead, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and shouted, "My lord...... Misunderstanding, misunderstanding. Where do you dare to move that mind, it's really because the villain has an uncomfortable stomach, went to the thatched house, and when he came out, he found that the adults came, you just borrowed the villain's ten guts, and the villain didn't dare! ”
Chang Feng lowered his head, but he was extremely nervous in his heart, he did see Li Canghai before, and the reason why he didn't stop the official from making a move was indeed to give him a dismount. It's just that he didn't expect that Li Canghai acted so violently that he even took care of his own subordinates.
