Chapter 156: A Gold Coin, A Human Life (3)

Zhong Wuyan looked at the people around her who took out gold coins and called for help from the official ship with a flash of surprise, she didn't understand how so many people could suddenly take out money, as if they had already prepared a gold coin on their bodies.

Obviously, such a big flood has flooded the entire Xuanhe Town, even if they have money, they should sink in the water! Why? Why are so many of them still able to come up with money?

Could it be that when the flood was about to fall, they were still carrying money at home? Could it be that in such a time of crisis, people have not forgotten money?

What's even more terrifying is that Zhong Wuyan's eyes turned around and saw the rich man Chen who had just been rescued on the boat, he was drowning and embarrassed, but he carefully opened a cloth belt full of money from his arms!

It was flooded like this, and even his family was gone, but he could still hold a big money bag in his hand! Holding such a heavy thing in such a turbulent water, he didn't let go of such a dangerous thing!

Oh my! Zhong Wuyan felt that he couldn't accept everything in front of him at all.

What's even more ridiculous is that the people who are so heavy on their lives have now handed over a piece of gold and are safely on board, while they, the people who don't care about money, are thrown into the water like real fools.

"Boss......" The low and desperate voice of the three dogs suddenly came, which made Zhong Wuyan feel shocked physically and mentally. At this time, she suddenly realized that when she lost her mind, it was always the three dogs behind her who were supporting her and preventing her from sinking into the turbulence.

Zhong Wuyan immediately paddled her arms and floated on the water, her gaze subconsciously turned, but she happened to touch the desperate eyes of the three dogs.

In that look, I could see that she couldn't say a word.

However, when she subconsciously turned her gaze, she suddenly found that the brothers of Shizhai who were trapped in the river and struggling with the turbulence were all looking at her from all directions with the same kind of eyes.

It's all that stagnant and desperate look. Looking at those eyes, Zhong Wuyan felt that they were all silently asking themselves - "Boss, what should we do?" ”

Zhong Wuyan knew that she knew that everyone was scared, they had no money and couldn't get on the boat, but they were also afraid of death, especially when they saw that other people had paid money and got on the boat, which made them feel helpless and frightened.

Everyone is afraid to die here! And she is their only and greatest hope, so they all look at her and pin their last hope on her.

But she doesn't have any money! She has never been disdainful, let alone thought of seeking money and saving money. It has nothing to do with this flood, she has never had a penny on her!

What could she do? How can she save everyone in this situation? Zhong Wuyan never thought that she would encounter such difficulties today because she had no money! And it's a matter of life and death!

"Yo! Isn't that the bell sledgehammer that shocked all directions? ”

A mocking voice came from the bow of the boat, Zhong Wuyan subconsciously looked up, only to find that it was Captain Huang standing at the bow who discovered her existence.

"Didn't you sweep through a thousand armies with a storm of rocks? How? Flooded, huh? Hahaha, it's really a reincarnation in heaven! Soldier Commander Huang looked down at Zhong Wuyan's embarrassed figure struggling in the turbulence, and laughed arrogantly. The laughter was like a knife, but it pierced not only Zhong Wuyan's heart, but also the hearts of the brothers in Shizhai Village, and even the hearts of the townspeople who paid the gold coins to get on the boat.

However, no one dared to say anything, not even Zhong Wuyan himself, he could only face Captain Huang's ugly face and harsh ridicule, and swallowed his anger.

Only Captain Huang's boss, who was also standing at the bow of the boat, expressed his doubts, so Captain Huang immediately lowered his head and whispered to the Governor of Water to explain the origin of the accident.

"Heh, it turns out that you are the bandit leader who robbed the government property." The Chief Governor of the Water Governor looked at Zhong Wuyan in the water and said with a chuckle. Although he had also heard of Zhong Wuyan's powerful power, he naturally had no fear when he saw her falling into the water so embarrassed now.

"Ah...... This is really a narrow road. You see, you and your brethren are all people who have made enemies with the government—so why don't we give you a chance to get on the boat? Or don't give it well? The Chief Governor of the Water Governor stared at Zhong Wuyan's solemn expression, but sneered with interest.

And Zhong Wuyan, who was floating in the water, heard such words, and his whole heart trembled. She was afraid, afraid that the other party would really hold on to the grudge and deliberately embarrass her at the moment—not for her own life, but for the lives of her brothers.

"Well, but there are a lot of them, so I don't care about these old grudges with you." After laughing twice, the water governor suddenly said very tolerantly.

Hearing this, Zhong Wuyan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

But the Governor of the Water said right after.

"This official will not embarrass you this time. Like everyone else, you can get on the boat and be saved if you pay a gold coin. ”

Suddenly, Zhong Wuyan's expression sank again. Even if the other party doesn't have grudges with her, it is impossible to save them the cost of living on the boat...... Like everyone else, they still have to pay the gold coins they should pay, otherwise they won't be able to get on the boat.

But a hundred brothers in the stone village on their side have to ask for a hundred gold coins, and she doesn't have a penny on her!

"How about it, quickly hand over the gold coins to thank the official for his great kindness." The Governor of the Navy, still standing on the bow of the boat, smiling condescendingly. But after looking at it for a long time, he didn't see the reaction of the people in the water, and then he noticed that Zhong Wuyan's face was gray, so he was subconsciously surprised.

"You're not going to be your bandit when this kind of disaster is coming, are you? One person refuses to give out a single gold coin? The chief officer of the water governor said, his eyebrows raised, "It's really a bandit, and he doesn't want to die if he wants money." ”

"We don't have any money." Zhong Wuyan lowered her head and said in a very difficult voice.

"Huh?" The water governor frowned slightly, the bow of the ship was too high, and it was obvious that he didn't hear Zhong Wuyan's voice clearly.

"I said, we don't have any money." Zhong Wuyan raised her head with great difficulty, looked up at the chief officer of the water governor on the bow of the boat, and said with a solemn face.

"No money?" The chief officer of the water governor was suddenly shocked, and couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, "You bandit leader who is robbing money everywhere, and you are fucking embarrassed to pretend to be poor with this official?" ”

"You robbed the property of the five carriages of the government half a month ago! Even if you are flooded, you can't have no money on you! ”

"Outlaws who regard money as their fate dare to play this kind of trick with their own officials!"

The chief officer of the water governor looked down at the brother in the stone village in the water, and scolded for a while, and after a while, he realized that he had lost his image, so he looked away and tidied up the corners of his clothes.

"We really don't have any money." After a moment of silence, Zhong Wuyan lowered his head, with a solemn expression, and said in a stoic whisper, "We have returned the money stolen from the government to the townspeople......

"Gave it back to the townspeople?" The Chief Governor of the Water Governor looked back and sneered fiercely, "Are you a three-year-old child when you are the official?" Even such words will have a surname? ”

Zhong Wuyan lowered her eyes and had nothing to say, she also knew that her words were all fantasy jokes in the eyes of these people. Where will there be bandits who will return the stolen money to others? No one believed it at all.

At this time, in fact, as long as the townspeople who got on the boat said a word, they could confirm it for Zhong Wuyan, but all of them just lowered their heads, and none of them said a word for Zhong Wuyan.

They are afraid, they are afraid that if they say it, they will take the responsibility on themselves, and they are afraid that Zhong Wuyan and the brothers in the stone village below will point back at them and pay to save people. Therefore, none of them dared to make a noise, and the catastrophe was imminent, and everyone was in danger.

"I think you poor bandits are really dead. Okay, it's a waste of the official's kindness. After sneering twice, the water governor shouted, "Then you will wait for death in this big water!" ”

"Don't! We don't want to die! Those who were struggling in the turbulence suddenly exclaimed in fear. They shouted as they focused all their eyes on Zhong Wuyan, hoping that Zhong Wuyan could come up with a way to save them.

"Wait! We really don't have any money! Can you let us get on the boat first, after today's catastrophe, I will definitely find a way to pay you back ten times the gold coins!" Zhong Wuyan raised her head suddenly, and shouted excitedly at the Governor of the Water, she was also afraid, she was also afraid that so many of her brothers would die here with her.

"Get on board first? No way! The chief officer of the water governor vetoed Zhong Wuyan without hesitation, "If you want to live, you have to pay for your life." Don't tell the official that you will get on the boat first and make up the money later. This official doesn't eat you! ”

"Either pay the money now, one person on one gold coin, or you all stay in this big water and wait to drown"

"But we really don't have any money!" Zhong Wuyan roared hoarsely, tears pouring out of her angry pupils.

She didn't know why these people were persecuting her so much. Is this really that important? Do they show no mercy without money? Is it better to have so many lives than a few gold coins?

Zhong Wuyan was angry, she was really angry. She rowed her fists so tightly that she almost couldn't resist grabbing a heavy hammer and smashing the big ships with a single blow, drowning all the inhuman villains.

But the surging river suddenly rose up and hit her head so hard that she suddenly came to her senses.

Her hammer had long since sunk into the water, and now that she was trapped in the rushing water, she was still struggling to breathe a breath of air, where was the environment and the strength to attack those big ships?

Now, the people trapped in danger are her, they are them, they are powerless to resist, and even the final life and death have to be in the hands of those villains who only know money and have no humanity!
