Chapter 57: The Old Way

"Have you heard, the little ones in the county town are gone, and the Imperial Association Army standing on the street is also a fresh face, it doesn't seem to be the original gang of guys in our county."

"You know a fart, maybe people say that the soldiers are going to fight the Eighth Road, and the Imperial Association Army in the county town may have changed their guards from somewhere else, haven't you seen them still collect money at the city gate!"

Zhao Zhi, who was dressed in civilian clothes, took Yu Dazhi to sit in the Yunpeng teahouse in the county seat, listening to the discussions of the people around him, and laughed secretly, those imperial troops who collected money at the city gate were all pretended to be people from the ** and Jin Suijun, and it was their forte to collect black money and bully the people, not to mention that they also collected money to watch people cook, not all people who entered the city were charged, for the smooth implementation of his plan, Zhao Zhi must try to maintain the status quo before other nearby armies found that Zhangwu County was abnormal.

He and Ye Kong, who can speak, are guarding the phone in Hashimoto Mayama's office in two shifts, as long as there is a phone call, they are dealing with Zhiwu, there is only one excuse, Hashimoto Mayama led the troops to clear the Eighth Route Army, it is estimated that he will not be able to return to the county in the near future, such a call, most of the captured imperial army was locked up by Zhao Zhi to work in the compound, and the remaining captives were sent to Caoling Coal Mine for labor reform, if there is no coal, the power plant in the county will strike.

"I heard, not only Jin Yunbiao is sick, but those guys who used to lick his ass are sick and hiding at home, yesterday, that Cao Shiyuan on the front street died suddenly, saying that he died of a sudden illness, you say, is there something in this." A tea guest whispered to the people sitting in the same seat, as long as people have a full stomach, they like to talk about other people's affairs in the parents, and the same is true for these tea drinkers.

"Bullshit, I heard that Cao Shiyuan didn't die of illness" A tea guest with a round face with a split hair looked left and right, lowered his voice and said, "Do you remember those things that the Imperial Association Army didn't let people go out early yesterday morning, I heard that Cao Shiyuan was taken away by a few soldiers, and he was already dead when he was sent back, and I heard the cook who came out to buy vegetables at his house said that Cao Shiyuan was hit in the head by a bullet, maybe it was done by Yue himself who lived in the big courtyard."

"Bah, he deserves it" A thin old man spat on the ground, "He Cao Shiyuan should have died a long time ago, not to mention the drought a few years ago, his family did not reduce the rent and forced so many farmers to die, then when he first came, he sent two maids to himself, poor the two little girls, only sixteen years old, they were trampled to death by him, he was evil, what a sin" The old man's hand slapped the table vigorously.

"That's it, the only son of his family, it's not a good thing, he always does something to bully men and women with his own support, isn't the daughter-in-law of Feng Tofu on West Street robbed by him, and when he gets tired of it, he sends it to the provincial capital and sells it in the kiln, you say, why won't his family die, it's good to die" Many tea customers followed the old man's words and scratched, it seems that Cao Shiyuan's family is not a good thing, and the people's anger in the county is quite big.

"You guys, just talk about it here," the shopkeeper of the teahouse came over to add water to everyone's teapot one by one, "His Cao family stuffed a lot of money into himself, you said that Cao Shiyuan was killed by himself, and you didn't see it with your own eyes, maybe it's just a nonsense, and you can't do it really" The shopkeeper is for everyone's good, and if you say too much, you will lose, so the tea guests just changed the conversation and talked about some short topics in the parents.

"Let's go" Zhao Zhi just glanced at Yu Dazhi lightly, then got up and walked towards the outside of the teahouse, Yu Dazhi, who was sitting there and listening, saw that Zhao Zhi had already gotten up, so he casually threw a piece of ocean on the table, and quickly followed Zhao Zhi out of the teahouse, "This gentleman, if you want to count a hexagram, the god operator Tiekou asserts, predicts life and death" Zhao Zhi, who had just walked out of the teahouse, was blocked by an old man dressed as a Taoist priest, and he couldn't avoid rushing left and right.

"Look at the face, measure the words, or touch the bones." Zhao Zhi waved his hand to stop Yu Dazhi, just smiled slightly, such a trick in the rivers and lakes, he never believed it, when he was in the United States in his previous life, there was a gypsy witch who cried and shouted to Zhao Zhi once, bluntly saying that Zhao Zhi was the life of Anshun's life, at that time, Zhao Zhi was still in awe of metaphysics, but just two months later, Zhao Zhi was bombed to Shanghai for 38 years because of an ambush, so Zhao Zhi no longer believed in these ghosts and gods, and talked to the old guy in front of him, purely because Zhao Zhi was idle, Just trying to find someone to talk to.

"Please Mr. write a word on the paper" After sitting down on the old Tao's hexagram stall, the old Tao pushed the pen, ink, paper and inkstone over, and signaled Zhao Zhi to write a word on the paper at will, Zhao Zhi was not polite, but the brush handed over by the old Tao wrote a "one" on the white paper, not that Zhao Zhi deliberately embarrassed the old way, but that he could not write with a brush, so he picked the simplest one.

"Mr. is very human" Lao Dao looked at the one on the white paper, his expression changed slightly, "Mr. wrote this one, the strokes are concise but all-encompassing, Mr. please see" Lao Dao put a pen on the top of the word "person", "plus a person, Mr.'s word becomes big, big adult, if you add a vertical in this big, this word will become wood, gold, wood, water, fire and earth, this wood fire, Mr.'s occupation is related to this fire, the fire of firearms, but Jin Kemu, so recently, Mr. There are people around you who are injured by gold"

Lao Dao looked at Zhao Zhi with a hint of extraordinariness and arrogance, hoping to see something from Zhao Zhi's facial expression, but the result was that Lao Dao was extremely disappointed, because Zhao Zhi was expressionless at all at this time, and a trace of panic flashed in the heart of the miscellaneous old Dao, could it be that what those people said to him was false, would the young man sitting in front of him pick the guy who was eating in a fit of anger, after sitting upright for a while, Zhao Zhi laughed, took a few pieces of ocean from Yu Dazhi's hand and put it on Lao Dao's table, and turned to leave.

After walking out a few steps, Zhao Zhi whispered to Yu Dazhi, "Send two clever brothers to follow that old way, see who he has been in contact with, if this charlatan didn't know our details from elsewhere, it was a spy sent by someone with a heart" Yu Dazhi turned around and glanced at the old way, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and nodded thoughtfully, Zhao Zhi They didn't leave for a while, and a tea customer and a kid with a cigarette stall appeared on this street, The old man's every move was secretly watched and remembered by these two people.
