The first night of the Yuxu Palace in the Five Tigers Village passed peacefully, and in the early morning of the sixth day of the twelfth month of the third year of the calendar, in addition to Tang Chao and Yang Xin, who were in charge of guarding the radio station, Zhang Weixin, Qian Yuanshan, Zeng Zhilin and Qingchen came to the Juyi Hall with Liu Wanbao at the beginning of the Chen time. A charcoal fire has been lit in the hall, and the five chairs are just enough for one person, and the five people sit down to roast the fire to warm up, after all, the weather in December of this lunar calendar is quite cold. After chatting for a while, Zhang Weixin took out his watch from his arms and looked at it, and signaled that it was time for everyone to gather.

Everyone came to the steps of the Juyi Hall, and Liu Xiaoliu struck the gong for the assembly. With the sound of a gong, the minions rushed out of their quarters and gathered in the open field below the steps. Then under the command of the big and small leaders, they stood in a queue and waited for the big leaders to review. Liu Wanbao was still satisfied with the speed of the gathering of the minions, and immediately called Liu Erxing and asked him to go down and count the number of people.

Liu Erxing received the order, and after a short time, he returned to the bottom of the steps, and handed over his hand to report: "For all the Taoist chiefs and Liu in charge, except for those who are on duty and stand guard, the number of minions in the village should be 295, but the actual number is 285, and the number is 10 absent. ”

Liu Wanbao saw that he was actually ten people late at once, and he couldn't help but show anger on his face, and asked: "Who is so bold that he dares to make a mistake, and who cares about their leader?" Step forward and answer. ”

When Liu Erxing heard this, he said with some hesitation: "The master, the ten people who are late are all one thing." Their chief, Ho Wu, also did not arrive. ”

Now Liu Wanbao understands a little, it seems that this He Wu took the lead and did not respond on time. And He Wu is the younger brother of He Si who was killed by Qingchen on the mountain road yesterday, and he probably can't swallow the breath of his brother being killed if he doesn't come to Yingmao. He didn't have the ability to take revenge in person, so he was unwilling to give up revenge and surrender to him. So he used this method to express his dissatisfaction, and at the same time pulled everyone to accompany him, wanting to use this to give him Liu Wanbao and the Taoist priests of Yuxu Palace a problem.

Yesterday, Daoist Zhang Weixin had already said that if he failed to make a mistake, he would be punished, and he could not be an exception. However, if those minions were coerced by He Wu and could not respond on time, then once they were punished, they would certainly resent He Wu, but at the same time, these punished minions and even other minions might be dissatisfied because of Liu Wanbao's lack of affection, thinking that he was using these minions to kill chickens to show the monkey in order to curry favor with the Taoist priests of Yuxu Palace. In this way, it will inevitably bring trouble to the subsequent management work.

However, if it is not punished, it is tantamount to not following orders and prohibitions, and the consequences will be even more serious. And it may also make the Taoist priest of the Jade Void Palace misunderstand that he has the intention of selling people's hearts, which is even more detrimental to himself. How to deal with it, Liu Wanbao is really a little unsure. After all, now that he is in charge, he is a bit out of character, and it is inevitable that he will be a little constrained in doing things.

Zhang Weixin, who was next to him, seemed to see that Liu Wanbao was a little hesitant, so he walked over and resolved: "Don't be embarrassed by Liu Dangjia, now you are still a copycat master, you can deal with it as you want." Poor Dao felt that as long as this kind of thing was judged impartially according to the rules of the village, other minions would not have an opinion. ”

Zhang Weixin's words made Liu Wanbao feel at ease, and when he heard that the two gongs had been struck, the minions in Xiangxia asked, "Which one is He Wu's boss?" ”

Hearing his inquiry, a leader hurriedly stepped out of the ranks, clasped his fists and responded: "The little one is here." ”

"Did He Wu ask you for leave?"

"The second is in charge, He Wu has never asked for leave from the little one."

"That being the case, that's a mistake. You come and tell a certain family, according to the rules of the cottage, what should be done with mistakes? ”

The leader was a little big when he heard it, and thought to himself, aren't you the second boss asking knowingly? Do you know the rules of copycats? You are obviously asking this question to get the rules out of my mouth, to provide you with a word, and to deal with that He Wu and my boss according to the rules later. However, although he was not satisfied with Liu Wanbao letting him carry this black pot, he didn't dare to show the slightest performance on his face, and immediately replied: "If the second is in charge, according to the rules in the village, one Mao will be beaten with less than forty sticks, two Mao will be beaten with less than eighty sticks, and the third Mao will not be shown to the public, and the boss of the mistaken soldier will also be beaten with twenty sticks." After speaking, I scolded He Wu who had nothing to do in my heart 10,000 times, and even prayed that this kid would not be able to do it if he had the ability, and Lao Tzu would go out and receive twenty sticks, and he would also want your kid's head to fall to the ground.

Liu Wanbao was very satisfied with the leader's answer, nodded and said, "That's right." Then he stopped talking, and waited for the three gongs to sound before reasoning.

Soon, the three gongs sounded, and He Wu and his team finally appeared in people's sight. This kid looked nonchalant, carrying a big knife and walking at the front of the team. And the minions behind him were not as relaxed as him, all of them had a worried look, and they walked behind He Wu step by step.

Seeing him behave like this, Liu Wanbao was furious. This is clearly not taking yourself in your eyes, which is a provocative gesture. And He Wu led the team to the bottom of the steps, not only did not salute the people on the steps, but raised his chin with disdain.

Seeing this, Liu Wanbao asked, "He Wu! It's a big sin for you to not be able to do it, and now when you see a certain family, instead of admitting their guilt, they look like they don't care, do you still have a copycat family law in your eyes? ”

He Wu was not afraid, and said in a loud voice: "You said that He Mou made a mistake, so He Mou wants to ask, who is the one who ordered Mao?" ”

"Naturally, it's a certain point."

"What qualifications do you have?"

"A certain family is the second master of the cottage, so it can naturally be ordered."

He Wu heard the words hahadaxiao and said: "Joke, you are the second master of the cottage? Then He asked you, where is the big boss of the cottage, why didn't he come to the old man, but let you, the second master, come to some Mao? ”

This can kill Liu Wanbao's sore spot, and what he is most afraid of now is that someone mentions the matter of the big boss in front of him. So he said angrily: "He Wu, Hugh has to talk nonsense here. Failing to do so is a capital offense, do you think you can get away with a few quibbles? ”

He Wu snorted lightly and said, "Qubble? He didn't know who was quibbling. For the sake of your own selfishness, you Liu Wanbao did not take revenge on the great boss of Wei, but colluded with the Taoist priest who killed the big boss, in a vain attempt to use us brothers to save your own life. At this time, what are you going to do, do you still have benevolence, righteousness and shame? ”,

As the saying goes, "Don't talk short in front of people", He Wuyi uncovered Liu Wanbao's scar again, and Liu Wanbao was already angry. And Liu Xiaoliu next to him couldn't hold it anymore, and when he pulled out the knife, he was about to go up and fight with He Wu, but he was stopped by Qingchen. Zhang Weixin, who got the identity of He Wu from Liu Erxing, pressed Liu Wanbao's shoulder, and then asked calmly: "He Wu, you keep saying that Liu Er's family ignores the great enmity of his righteous brother for the sake of his own life, and blindly curries favor with us Taoist priests, there is no benevolence, righteousness and shame. Not to mention that you do not distinguish between right and wrong, and deliberately distort the issue of the merger of the two sides of Liu Er's proposal. Poor Dao just wants to ask, has you He Wu's revenge for killing your brother been avenged? ”

Now he can ask He Wu, and he doesn't know how to answer for a while. After all, his own brother was also killed by these Taoist priests. Now that the enemy is in front of you, you yourself have no intention of revenge at all, how can you be embarrassed to accuse others of not avenging your brother-in-law.

Seeing that He Wu was speechless, Zhang Weixin shouted and asked, "He Wu, Poor Dao gave you a chance last night to allow some brothers who can't let go of their hatred to come out and take revenge on us." At that time, you didn't show the slightest intention of wanting to avenge Wei Da's family or your brother, but today you are here again. Not only did you make a mistake, but you also caused your brothers to be unlucky, what is your intention? ”

In the face of Zhang Weixin's questioning, He Wu stammered and couldn't find any excuses. At this time, a minion behind him really didn't want to be so innocent and become He Wu's back before he died, so he stood up and shouted: "The second master, all the Taoist leaders, expose the small." He Wu was called by Wu Xinji's family last night and didn't return until midnight. After coming back, he instigated the little ones to disobey the order, and they had to make a mistake today, so as to give the second master and the Taoist leaders a dismount. At that time, he will take the opportunity to slander the second master, so as to incite the other brothers to turn against the water and drive away the second leader and the Taoist leaders. and then release Wu Xinji, and then he will be rewarded heavily. The little ones were coerced by him and had to follow, and they also hoped that the second master and the Taoist would investigate clearly. ”

This is "one stone stirs up a thousand waves", the scene immediately exploded, the sound of cursing is endless, and even some minions have already wielded knives and guns to go up, resulting in He Wu's life. Everyone can already see Wu Xinji's face very clearly, no matter what, no one will be willing to work under him anymore. He Wu, this kid, is embarrassed to collude with him for his own selfishness, which is really shameful. Especially the minions who know the strength of the Jade Void Palace, they can't wait to devour this kid alive. In their opinion, He Wu's doing this was tantamount to pushing the cottage brothers into the fire pit, and it was a dead end to oppose the Yuxu Palace.

Seeing this, Zhang Weixin hurriedly stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then asked in a deep voice: "He Wu, what this brother said is the truth?" ”

He Wu knew that the general trend was gone, and he didn't quibble anymore at this time, admitting that what the minions said was the truth, but he didn't explain which of Wu Xinji's family members conspired with him. However, it is not difficult to find out who colluded with He Wu, and he will naturally be punished in the future. Zhang Weixin didn't want to spend too much time on this issue, and when he saw He Wu confessing his guilt, he turned to Liu Wanbao and said: "Liu Dangjia, the matter has come to a conclusion, and I ask Liu Dangjia to deal with it according to the mountain rules." However, Poor Dao believed that except for the first evil, the other nine minions were coerced, and although the crime was unforgivable, it was excusable. ”

Zhang Weixin's meaning Liu Wanbao naturally understood, so he announced: "He Wu secretly colluded with Wu Xinji's family and plotted against him. And if you don't get three Mao, you should be cut according to the rules of the mountain. Although the minions under his command were not able to do three times, they were coerced by He Wu and could be dealt with lightly. Each person will be deducted one month's money, and if there is a repeat offense, he will be severely punished. Saying that, he waved his hand, "Come on, pull He Wu down and behead him to show the public, as an example." ”

Liu Xiaoliu immediately stepped forward with his own soldiers, pulled He Wu, who was already dead, to the side, and cut off his head with a knife in his hand. The nine minions under He Wu were able to be lightly dismissed, and they were all grateful, and they knelt down to thank them.

Subsequently, Liu Wanbao ordered Wu Xinji, Shi Feibao and their cronies to be brought up, and announced their crimes in public, and the result of the disposal was also beheading. In the begging for mercy of Wu Xinji and others, Liu Xiaoliu and Liu Wanbao's personal soldiers did not have any weakness and completed the task cleanly.

After dealing with the unstable factors, Liu Wanbao consulted Zhang Weixin's opinion, and announced that the teams would be disbanded, and they would gather here again in the afternoon, and the Taoist chief of the Yuxu Palace would register them for future management. Although the minions didn't understand why they had to register as bandits, the headless corpses in the nearby place made them dare not show any disobedience.
