Chapter 512: Missing the Head
"It's always bad to put you in prison for this little thing, but it's unreasonable not to punish you, so the official thought of a way." Zhou Shilin looked at the group of disapproving people in front of him and smiled.
"Shanxi Road bandits are what I am determined to do on Shanxi Road, so starting with these two people, whoever has another trespasser, those who have money will pay five taels of silver," Zhou Shilin said and looked at everyone casually, "This official's face is very noble, how can you look at it in vain?" ”
The audience was in an uproar: Look at five taels of silver once, even the beautiful Oiran lady should not be so expensive, and besides, what is there to look at with his ordinary face?
Who has that money to watch him go?
"How can we have any money?" A beggar with a broken bowl and a dried steamed bun snorted.
The barefoot man is not afraid of wearing shoes, how can he be taken if he has no money?
Today's rich people on Shanxi Road can't find a few, but poor people are everywhere.
"No money?" Zhou Shilin snorted lightly, turned his head to look at the shouting beggar, he nodded and said, "If you don't have money, you will send people, I am going to organize a team in the private sector to send them to the mountains to suppress bandits, and it can be regarded as contributing to the Shanxi Road." Isn't it just right that the money that looked at the handsome face of this official before was used for this expense? ”
As soon as the words fell, the original noise suddenly disappeared at this moment, and someone didn't seem to hold the bowl in his hand, and fell to the ground all of a sudden.
Out of the ordinary? If you go up the mountain to suppress bandits, you have to go and have to die! The people were terrified.
To the silent people in the audience, Zhou Shilin nodded to himself and said proudly: "Take it from the people, use it for the people, good!" ”
He said that it is best to fight poison with poison, and when it comes to poison, who can poison her? Look at him if he can't treat this group of people well!
The smug "good" made the people tremble.
If it's really a person who can't be disfigured, this stupid-faced Great Governor actually came up with such a vicious plan, giving people without giving money, those bandits are so rampant, what is the difference between this and running to give away people's heads?
The two terrified quail-like men stayed on the sidelines and shivered.
After saying this "good", Zhou Shilin turned his head to look at the two trembling men, pointed at them and said: "No, these two are now the members of the civilian team who will be sent up to the mountain to suppress the bandits in a while, and when they come again, there are almost no more people, and the official will send you to the sky, no, up the mountain!" ”
Zhou Shilin smiled and touched the back of his head, and said, "Oh, it's wrong, don't forget to go in your heart!" ”
After saying that, he laughed again.
It's still that silly look.
But the people were more and more frightened, and many of them could not help but move back.
This is wrong, this is clearly saying what is in your heart!
Isn't sending people up the mountain the same as going to heaven? I'm going to die!
Originally, I thought that this person was the same on the outside, but at this time, when I looked at the silly-looking face, I always felt that there was a treacherous atmosphere.
Some of the people who were the first to come back to their senses looked at the people around them who were still stunned, and couldn't help but move their steps: It's better to run away first while this is the time!
It's crazy to come and provoke this Great Governor, how did they follow to do such a thing before? Who proposed it? I can't remember exactly, but I'm always being picked up.
Let's run! This person even dared to arrest the officials and put them in prison, how could he not dare to send them up the mountain?
"This is for everyone's benefit, don't shirk!" The overseer was still smiling and said, "Two are a little less, a few more, there are many people and great strength, if you don't succeed, you will become benevolent, you are the heroes in the hearts of the people......"
The hero is a fart, his life is gone, whoever is going to be a hero, it's better to run!
The people who had gathered in chaos retreated in all directions like a tide, but after a while, there were only a few people left who were still standing stupidly.
Zhou Shilin, who looked like he was running away quickly, was very dissatisfied, and couldn't help but turn his head to glance at the two people who were watched by the officials, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why are the two of you so badly popular?" As soon as he said that he would go with you, the people ran away? ”
Two shivering people huddled together trembled and secretly wiped their tears.
This is a fatal thing, which one will go with them?
Why did you climb the wall with a hot head at that time?
"My lord," one of them knelt down with a "poof" from his tears, and kowtowed repeatedly, "I beg my lord to spare his life!" ”
"This is a good thing, it is a hero's doing," Zhou Shilin shouted, "You don't want to be a hero? ”
No, they'd rather be bears. The two arrested people wiping their tears trembled and looked at Zhou Shilin: "My lord, we don't dare anymore, why don't you let us go with the ones who were arrested before!" ”
"Nope." Zhou Shilin shook his head without thinking about it and refused, "Lao Tzu didn't want to catch it before, but when I met you, Lao Tzu happened to want to catch it, okay?" At the end, he couldn't help but snort, "Who called you unlucky!" ”
Who made these two over the wall happen to be there when she is there?
So unlucky!
Glancing at the few people, Zhou Shilin confessed a few times and watched the two people closely, and then walked back to the hotel with his hands behind his back.
His muttering came from the wind.
"It's better to have a few more, there are still too few people......"
It seems that he still wants to catch a few and send them up the mountain.
The few people who seemed to be stunned at the door at first only woke up like a dream at this time, and even the few who were left ran away in the face of the two unlucky people who were looked by the officials.
The beggar, who had made a defiant voice earlier, instinctively looked down at the shattered clay bowl on the ground, stomped his foot, turned his head and strode away.
The farce in front of the hotel has come to an end for the time being.
……
However, not discussing in front of the hotel does not mean that you are not consulting elsewhere.
Soon, what happened in front of the hotel, as well as the "shocking words" of the great governor from the capital, alarmed most of the people on Shanxi Road.
"My good man, this surnamed Zhou is really a ruthless person!"
Although Shanxi Road is barren, places such as inns are lively all year round.
At this moment, there are many people in the inn where many foreign caravans and local wealthy families have gathered to mention this matter.
Some people who witnessed this scene said that they were excited.
"I heard that this surnamed Zhou was from a military camp with Lord Qian, how could it be a good class? Lord Qian is a thunderous and fierce method, he is playing tricks with the appearance of a simple fool, and he is definitely not easy to get along. ”
"That's right, those two unlucky ones were arrested, and they were watched by officials at the door of the hotel at this time!" 118
"I also heard the man surnamed Zhou muttering that there are too few people, and you want to get some more to send up the mountain or something, where is this to send us up the mountain? It's clearly to send people to heaven! ”
"It's not a good thing!"
……
The inn hall was noisy, full of residents and diners who were talking about it, and the innkeeper smiled at the noisy lobby, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he looked happy and listening.
At this moment, a guy who ran to the hall with tea came here, and the shopkeeper smiled and turned sideways to avoid it.
Just as the two of them passed sideways, the guy whispered, "People are in the patio." ”
The smile on the shopkeeper's face remained unchanged, and only after the man had left did he turn around and walk towards the patio.
The hall was full of discussions, and few people paid attention to the departure of a shopkeeper.
Passing through the corridor in the middle, you will find a hollow patio in front of you.
Compared to the bustle ahead, the patio here is extremely cold, and the people who come and go are just a few guys who serve food or the occasional guest who goes to the thatched hut in the backyard.
Not far ahead, next to the well, someone was sitting on a pony to wash his hands, and two half-killed fish were placed on the cutting board on the side, and the bloody smell mixed with the fishy smell looked dirty, so that the guests who came to the inn to eat and the overnight diners avoided it, lest they would be stained with unpleasant smell of blood.
The shopkeeper walked over, coughed lowly, and said, "How is it?" ”
The man with his back to him raised his head slightly, grabbed the fish that was jumping and struggling with one hand, and cut the fish scraper in his hand into the belly of the fish with the other, and the smell of blood immediately spread.
The fish swayed and struggled, a mixture of blood, water, and scales scattered around, and even the shopkeeper behind him splashed a few drops of blood and scales.
The shopkeeper frowned, shook the robe in his hand, shook off the scales from his body, and looked up at the people who had come from the lobby to the patio.
It was a tall woman, rubbed with heavy fat powder, and she was quite beautiful, and she had only stayed in the inn in the past two days.
"It's a prostitute who wants to climb high branches," the shopkeeper smiled and waved at the flower branch, and nodded at the women around him with a stubborn fan in the winter, "There is a bit of a posture, and my eyes have been rolling on those passing merchants these days." ”
He has seen a lot of this kind of female prostitute, and his mind is clear at a glance, but he doesn't find it strange.
"It's better to pay attention and check the background." Feeling the fish in his hand jumping and struggling, the man with his back to him said, "Be careful to sail the 10,000-year-old boat, a carelessness is very likely to destroy all our layouts." ”
"You can rest assured." The shopkeeper hurriedly said, "It's just that all these days my subordinates are staring at the hotel, and they will come back to investigate this prostitute in some time." But it is also possible that there have been eye-catching or climbing in the past two days, and the prostitute will go away with the caravan, he thought secretly.
"yes, there's someone to keep an eye on there." The man who killed the fish looked at the fish jumping and struggling in his hand and gradually stopped struggling, "I also went to see these officials from the capital today, and broke one of my pottery bowls from the previous dynasty, it's a pity." ”
Throwing the fish back into the bucket with water, the man looked up.
If there are people who made trouble in front of the hotel at this time, they may be able to recognize the man in front of them as the beggar who dropped the bowl in front of the hotel before.
The look of the gloom is similar to the previous rogue villain in front of the hotel.
"Those officials from the capital are a little interesting." Thinking of the overseer in front of the hotel, the man narrowed his eyes slightly, "It's not good stubble." ”
The shopkeeper said: "You can take down the hardest bones to gnaw, at best, it is almost the same as the surname Qian." ”
The man let out a sneer when he heard this, and then slowly stood up from the horse, looking down at the motionless fish in the barrel: "People always have weaknesses, and this surnamed Qian has the means and courage but is too conceited after all." ”
The shopkeeper should be silent.
At this moment, two more diners in the lobby came out of the hall, and when they saw the shopkeeper standing here, they came over to greet him with a smile and said, "Shopkeeper, you are also here!" ”
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Master Wu, Master Zheng." ”
These two were the merchants who had lived in the inn and followed the caravan in the past few days, and they were both delicate and talkative people, and as soon as they came, they became familiar with most of the people in the inn.
"Is this a new fellow?" The old man Wu smiled and fell his gaze on the fishy man beside the shopkeeper, and said with a smile, "It's a new face, I've never seen it!" ”
The shopkeeper snorted and said, "Yes, the inn has been busy with business these days, and I invite someone to help kill the fish, and I don't like to talk." ”
The old man Zheng beside him also had a smile on his face, and his eyes immediately fell on the man who killed the fish, but when he saw it, he frowned slightly, and said, "Is it?" I thought this guy was familiar, as if I had seen it somewhere. ”
Hearing this, Master Wu smiled and said: "You see everyone is familiar, this is not a beauty, the person who didn't see you early this morning went out to hang out to see the beauty again!" ”
It's always been a friend for many years, Lao Zheng is lustful, who doesn't know this old problem in the caravan?
"The people on this Shanxi Road can't eat enough, where are there so many beauties." Master Wu joked to him.
Master Zheng hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I'm not going to see a beauty in the morning, I'm going to ...... Hey, Lao Wu, look, beauty! ”
At the end of the corridor, a woman with a fan swaying came from the opposite side.
This very beautiful woman has been in the inn for a few days, showing up every day, looking at them as if she was looking at the gold owner, the people in the inn caravan are already familiar, Master Wu coughed lightly, and reminded Master Zheng beside him that this is not a good woman.
However, Master Zheng, who was fascinated by sex, obviously didn't care, he just watched stupidly, and only after the woman walked past them and returned to the lobby did he come back to his senses and exclaimed: "Old Wu, I like this!" ”
Seeing this, Master Wu couldn't help but splash him with cold water and said, "This woman didn't even look at you, obviously she wanted to climb a higher branch." "They have traveled north and south, and they have also seen a lot of beauties, beauty, money and power, these things are a kind of goods in their eyes, such as such a very beautiful woman, naturally their hearts are higher than the sky, and they want to exchange for better money and power, I am afraid that they will not look down on them.
Master Zheng said: "I like to look at me like this and look cold and unapproachable." ”
"It's sick!" Master Wu scolded with a smile, and the shopkeeper who had not made a sound for a long time on the same side raised his hand, and went to the direction of Gongfang with Master Zheng.
After the people left, the shopkeeper explained with a smile: "These kind of business people are so fond of being close to people, and they are very talkative......"
"Not only is he talkative, but he also has good eyesight." The man with a fishy and bloody aura on his body spoke up, "These two must have good memories." ”
The shopkeeper smiled and should be.
"But fortunately, my memory is better," the man said, lowering his eyes and saying, "Find someone to solve that Master Zheng." ”
The shopkeeper, who was listening with a smile, was suddenly stunned, and he didn't know why he suddenly said such a thing.
"That old man Zheng went to the hotel in the morning," the man said, "this person has seen me, and he still has some impressions." ”
These businessmen who go south and north are not only talkative, but also have a good ability to recognize people, although they have only seen it once, Master Zheng can blurt out that he is familiar, and these people will remember to see him at some point, so they can't stay.
"When are you going to do it?" The shopkeeper paused and said.
There is nothing more deserving of the decision in front of him, if he wants to kill Master Zheng, he will definitely kill him.
"If you have a long night, you will have a lot of dreams, so let's do it tonight!" The man said, a hint of coldness flashed on his gloomy face, "I've also found a scapegoat, Master Zheng is lustful, and the female prostitute misses and kills." It just so happened that the two of them were sent away together. ”
A person who has seen him and remembers his face, and whose identity and background have not yet been ascertained, just happened to take advantage of this to remove these two troubles in one fell swoop, killing two birds with one stone, otherwise how can it be reassuring?
