Volume 5 Legendary Mentor Chapter 122 I Am He-Man, the Knight of Justice
Ye Fengliu, who had just raised his buttocks, was shocked when he heard this, he looked at the two empty bowls on the broken table at the gate of the courtyard and the little kid who was howling in his heart, and a bad thought rose in his heart.
"Isn't this Shang Yi and Li Hui arranged in advance? But does someone really choose to eat at the gate of this courtyard? This doesn't make sense! ”
At this moment, a familiar voice came from the alley in the village.
"Brother Ye, why did you just get to the entrance of the village, the captain and I have been waiting for you in the village for a long time." Sure enough, Li Hui's figure appeared in Ye Fengliu's sight.
"The captain and I managed to spend a lot of money to get through to the village chief to provide us with lunch. You two go quickly, it's too late to go, and the porridge will be cold, and it is estimated that you won't be able to eat it. ”
Ye Fengliu thought of the bowl of black paste he had just drunk, and instantly understood the deep meaning of the so-called cold and unpalatable in Li Hui's mouth.
"Uh," the corner of his eyes twitched as he looked at the little kid who had just been rated as the best actor by him, and his heart was clear, "I actually robbed other people's food just now!" Damn, it was so fast that you don't need to drink it......"
At this time, the mother of the little boy finally stumbled out of the yard, and her freshly washed face looked very colorful.
Her unwashed neck and clothes are gray and black, looking at the size of the clothes, it should be a set of men's clothes, although it doesn't fit, but fortunately, there are no holes everywhere to show the spring.
Her bare feet were still bleeding, and the soles of her feet should have been cut by something sharp in the hurry she had just run.
And in her calloused hands was a small wooden dish of green wild vegetables, and it seemed that this woman had just cooked this meal.
Seeing his mother appear, the little fart child finally stopped screaming, pointed at Ye Fengliu and cried to complain to his mother, "Mom, it was this bad guy who came over just now and drank your porridge directly!" Woohoo......"
Ye Fengliu's embarrassed face turned green, and he was organizing how to explain in his heart, but the woman hugged her child and looked at it carefully for a long time, and only after seeing that there was nothing unusual did she squeeze out a smile and ask, "Stone, have you drunk your porridge?" ”
The little kid named Stone nodded and pointed at He-Man, "This sister was going to snatch my porridge for drinking, but she gave it back to me. ”
The woman breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, the stone is fine, Mom is not hungry, that uncle must be hungry, he will drink it." Later, the two of us will go to the official's house, and we won't have to worry about not being able to drink porridge in the future. ”
Li Hui already understood what was going on when he saw this, and in order to avoid suffering from his flesh, he forced a smile in his heart and said to Ye Fengliu: "I just heard the village chief talk about these two girls. ”
"It is said that the man of this family was killed by a monster that suddenly appeared when he was farming not long ago, and the two of them became orphans and widows and cut off their livelihood."
"It just so happened that this year, the tax collector came to the village to collect taxes, and because the village did not have enough tax money, he had to collect a woman to pay off the debt according to the custom."
"You can naturally guess the rest of Brother Ye. The villagers explained to the orphans and widows, and prepared new clothes and delicacies for them, and waited for the tax collector to come and take them away. ”
"What, how could such a thing happen?" He-Man, who had already returned after discovering that the situation was wrong, changed color after hearing Li Hui's words.
"Dare to rob the people's daughter. I'm afraid that this tax collector is the big corrupt official who caused the poor living conditions of the people in the neighborhood. ”
"Hmph, I want to see what kind of person he is. Dare to do such a hurtful thing. ”
"Who said they wanted to see me so loudly?" At this time, there was a sudden neighing of people and horses outside the village, and a stout man rushed to the front with a murderous face, and behind him were two black-clothed evil slaves who ran out of breath with big knives in their hands.
Apparently He-Man's declaration of justice had just been heard by him.
"You're here," a thin black man nodded and walked out from behind Li Hui, followed by Shang Yi with a veil on his face.
"These people are passing by, and what they do has nothing to do with our village. We've already cleaned up Hui Niang, that's it, you can see that you're satisfied. ”
The thin black old man pointed to Hui Niang, who was holding the child, with a flattering smile on his face.
"It's not from your village." The tax collector stared at Seaman's face for a moment, and a look of greed appeared in his eyes, "That's good." Don't go, wait for me and Village Chief Fu to finish our business, and then come to you to talk to you about daring to maliciously slander me. ”
After the tax collector finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to Ye Fengliu and the others, but looked at Hui Niang.
"Yes, it's okay, but what's the matter with that little one?" The tax collector asked the village chief Fu dissatisfied.
"This child is Hui Niang's son, he is still young, and he can't do without his mother." Village Chief Fu said cautiously: "The official family, you can take her and her mother together." ”
"This child has a good body, and he will be raised for another two years, and he will be a good hand at work."
"Two more years, do you think I'm a benevolent church?" The tax collector was furious, "You keep the child for yourself, and we will take it away." ”
"Don't, I beg you, official......" Hui Niang immediately knelt on the ground when she heard this, kowtowing like pounding garlic, "You can be merciful and accept my son's stone, he just eats and drinks a bowl of wheat bran porridge every day, it is very easy to raise." ”
"Wow...... "The little fart stone immediately cried tears, "I don't want to leave my mother's ...... Wow......"
"What are you crying about here?" The tax collector yelled at Hui Niang with an angry face: "Do you think I want to keep you for myself?" ”
"You have to understand who you are. You're there to pay your debts! I am willing to accept you, which is already the friendship of my fellow countrymen. ”
"If I can't get you to Beechcraft City for a good price, I'm going to have to pay for the hole out of my own pocket. What should I do with your child? Will traffickers want your child? ”
"Even if I give your child to the traffickers for nothing, in case the traffickers sell you to the Qinglou. Then your child may not be sold anywhere. So you're still going to take the kids with me? ”
When Hui Niang heard the tax collector say this, the whole person was stunned for a moment, and after a while, she cried bitterly: "Then I won't go, I won't go anywhere." I have to be with my children, and they can't do without me. ”
Seeing that the persuasion was counterproductive, the tax collector couldn't help but become angry and shouted again: "M, it's up to you to regret it now." If you don't listen to good words, then don't blame me for being rude, and someone will take Huiniang away for me. ”
Seeing this, the village chief Fu's lips trembled, but he didn't say anything after all, just lowered his head lower.
"Stop......" Seeing the two house slaves of the tax collector coming forward menacingly, Seaman rushed to Huiniang's mother and son with one arrow step, blocking their way.
"How dare you rob a people's girl in broad daylight? There is no royal law in your eyes. He-Man drew the wooden sword at his waist and held it above his head, "I am He-Man, the knight of justice, and the bad guys accept my wrath." ”
"This line is a bit embarrassing!" Shang Yi looked at Ye Fengliu with a black line on his face, "Second Cargo Demon, aren't we going to make a move?" ”
"This should be the line in the princess's favorite knight novel," Ye Fengliu showed a hint of joy on his face, "Don't worry, now is the critical moment, let's just act according to the plan." ”
Seeing He-Man's arrogance blocking the way, the two house slaves raised their knives and wanted to step forward, but they heard the tax collector's voice anxiously, "Don't move the knife, you want to live." ”
When the two slaves heard this, they had no choice but to return their swords to the sheath and pounce on He-Man empty-handed.
The expression on Seaman's face was slightly flustered, but when he heard the cry of mother and son behind him, he instantly became firm.
I saw that she first swung the wooden sword and slapped it at the cheeks of the two house slaves, and then took advantage of the opportunity for the two of them to be attracted by the wooden sword, and quickly kicked the crotch of the two.
The first house slave immediately screamed and fell to the side with a crotch, but the second was only kicked in the waist by Seaman and fell to the side with a whoop.
"The reaction is very fast, and the shot is also very thoughtful, but the strength is too small!" Ye Fengliu gave a timely comment, "But seeing that tax collector is wearing light armor, at least he should be a warrior above level seven, and this girl shouldn't be able to beat him." ”
"Stinky girl, it's against you. Dare to attack the official! I'll take care of it when I get you back. Then the tax collector smirked, jumped up from his horse, and pounced on He-Man.
He-Man saw the tax collector lunging in the air, and still slashed the tax collector in the cheek with his wooden sword, raising his leg and kicking him in the crotch.
Seeing that He-Man had done it again, the tax collector sneered at the corner of his mouth. He ignored the lethal wooden sword, and grabbed it with both hands down towards He-Man's jade feet.
Just when the tax collector thought that he could easily take down the little girl opposite, he saw a sneer on the corner of Seaman's mouth.
Then He-Man's wooden sword turned into a stabbing and stabbed the tax collector in the left eye.
This change made all the melon eaters present stunned.
"This garbage collector is too ineffective!" Ye Fengliu was stunned, he was ready to enter the venue handsomely when He-Man asked for help.
"You...... You wait for me......" The tax collector, supported by the domestic slaves, climbed onto the horse with difficulty with his bleeding eyes, and then fled.
"Haha, I'm He-Man, the knight of justice." Seaman happily shouted at the back of the tax collector, "This time you dare to kill the people again." ”
He-man turned his head and found that Hui Niang and Village Chief Fu were looking at her with horror on their faces, so he wondered, "Why are you still like this?" The bad guys have been beaten away by me, shouldn't you be happy? ”
"Kid, you're hurting us this time!" Village Chief Fu hung his head and paused, "The tax has not been completed, and the tax collector was injured by you." When the next army comes, all of our people in our village will be taken away and turned into slaves, and we will all be killed by you! ”
"Girl, you go quickly." Hui Niang suddenly gritted her teeth and shouted: "Soon the army will come, and it will be too late to be late." ”
"No, you can't go." Village Chief Fu hurriedly stopped in front of He-Man, "The brother-in-law of the tax collector is the centurion of the First Cavalry Regiment, if you leave, we will be even worse, he will kill us." ”
"A centurion only, what am I going to do?" He-Man's expression changed from puzzled, sad, moved, and annoyed to firm, "It's a big deal, I'll give up my practice, I don't want my own princess name, you can rest assured, with me, they don't dare to do anything to you." ”
Seeing that they were not leaving, the village chief Fu breathed a sigh of relief, and when he saw that He-Man returned to the broken wooden table and sat quietly, he was still not at ease, he glanced at the frightened Hui Niang and tried his best to put on a kind expression and said:
"Hui Niang, the lives of hundreds of people in our village will depend on you in a while, and if the officials come again, you will obediently go over and say a few nice words. As for the child, don't worry, our village will help you raise it. ”
Hearing this, Hui Niang nodded her head Mu Ran, which was acceptable.
Village Chief Fu hesitated and gave Huiniang a look, meaning that she should look at He-Man and the others, and then left in a hurry.
After a while, there was a noise in the village, and Village Chief Fu came back with a group of ragged villagers.
Hui Niang looked at He-Man, and her eyes couldn't help but show apologies. Seeing this, He-Man smiled comfortingly at Hui Niang and said, "It's okay, I'm here, I'm the righteous knight He-Man." ”
As the sky grew dark, the surrounding area of the village suddenly lit up, and the skyrocketing fire quickly spread inward from the four corners of the village, and the shouts and cries instantly resounded throughout the village.
Village Chief Fu, who was standing opposite Ye Fengliu and the others, suddenly turned pale, and squeezed out a few words in his mouth like a dream, "They slaughtered the village!" ”
