Chapter 66: The Lobby Trial
The king of the southern foot looked at this little hairball with a righteous and awe-inspiring look, and he was also puzzled, when did this little guy become so afraid of death? It's not like it! He asked, "Then we're just waiting here?" This question is the arms of the little hairball, and someone sent a pillow just when he wanted to fall asleep. It stared at the king of the southern foothills with its eyes, and then stretched out three fingers, "Just wait for three days, three days at most, if we haven't come back yet, we don't have to wait any longer, hurry up and lead the villagers and demon beasts to flee for their lives." ”
The king of Nanlu was really a little stupid at this time, he didn't expect the matter to develop to such a serious point, and before he could say anything more, the herald shouted, "Hurry up, the city lord is still waiting, what are you rubbing?" Little Furball hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, here we are." As he spoke, he pulled the chief to the herald.
The chief hurriedly bowed his head, "I am the chief of this Yin Village," and pointed to the small hairball next to him again, and said, "It is the leader of the demon beasts in this mountain." Little Furball happily took over the conversation, "My name is Hu Xiaoxiao." Ding Wendong, who had just put on his clothes over there, heard it and shouted: "Nonsense, it's called Little Maoqiu, when did it become the leader of this Yinshan Demon Beast after the Xiangge fox prostitute that day?" ”
The king of the southern foot spoke in a tiger voice behind him, "Huh! Why didn't I know there was such a beast as you in this mountain? You've just recently morphed? Or just came from other mountains, I don't know if I'm the king of the southern foot of this Yin Mountain, I said whoever is the leader is the leader, do you need to this leisure! Ding Wendong was red in the face of a few words, but he couldn't think of a word to refute, so he could only "Okay, I don't have the same knowledge as you brutes." I'll see you enter the city and be arrogant! ”
Little Furball didn't bother to talk to him, and asked the herald, "When are we leaving?" The chief and I are ready. Of course, Ding Qingtai wanted them all to enter the city, and then find an opportunity to kill them all, but he didn't expect Nong Anning to open his mouth first, "Go, let's go now." Then he arched his hand at Ding Qingtai, "Outside the second Ding member, please!" ”
Ding Qingtai pointed his finger at Nong Anning, "You dare not obey the city lord's orders?" Nong Anning replied slowly: "The city lord is asking me to take you and them back to the city, one is the chief of Xiangyin Village, and the other is the leader of the demon beasts in the mountain, can't these two still represent Xiangyin Mountain?" If you have anything to say, can you ask clearly? Besides, how many villagers and monsters are brought into the city, that is the duty of the last general, and you don't need to worry about the Ding family! ”
Ding Qingtai flicked the sleeves of his robe, "Hmph! I have long heard that you are in collusion with those demon animals and endanger the township, but when I saw it today, it was really good. Today's events will definitely be written into the chapter of the Ming Sheng, how do you bear the wrath of today's thunder when you see it! Nong Anning shrugged his shoulders indifferently and made a gesture of please, "Second member Ding, please lead the way!" ”
Nong Anning opened his mouth to the king of Nanlu and ordered: "Go and take down all the heads on the wall, and I will bring them back to the city lord's mansion together." Little Furball looked at the Dumb Tiger and nodded. After a while, the heads of the people on the wall were sent down, and a flatbed truck was loaded with the large and small ones intercepted in the dense forest two days ago.
Then Nong Anning deliberately commanded his subordinates loudly while whipping the heads of the four largest demons in the flatbed truck with a horse whip. "You stay and see if there are any corpses of villagers killed or buried by these demon barbarians, and if there are any, come back quickly and report it, I have a heavy reward!"
Ding Qingtai turned around and roared angrily: "You are deliberately framing you, and our city lord's mansion is on the right track." Walk! With that, he led the team to the city of Semen.
Ding Qingtai rushed back to Saimen City with his own team first, and the chief and Xiao Maoqiu followed closely behind Nong Anning, the deputy general of Saimen City, and everyone gathered in the lobby of Saimen City.
City Lord Chang Fengmao sat in the middle of the lobby, and when he saw Ding Qingkun coming, Chang Fengmao greeted him with a smile and said cordially: "Old man Ding has always been okay outside? What happened to the Blood Demon Drink case? Ding Qingkun arched his hand and said: "Thank you for your concern, the last incident was thanks to the wisdom of the saint to be able to return the old man's innocence." ”
Chang Fengmao stepped forward and patted Ding Qingkun on the shoulder and said, "Hey, that's it, I'll just say that with that sesame mung bean, how can it stump our old man Ding?" ”
Then he said to everyone in the hall with admiration: "Look at it, we are still old people who are smart and can do things, spend two dollars to dredge up the relationship, and then die and don't admit it, isn't it okay?" As for slaughtering a large number of our fellow people to make blood demon drinks, this little thing is not a matter at all for our old man Ding, confess to be strict and resist leniency, just don't admit it, old man Ding is well versed in this, this little thing, not a matter! ”
Suddenly, Chang Fengmao glared at the subordinates who were waiting in the hall and shouted, "What are you still doing?" Didn't you see that Old Man Ding was still standing outside? Isn't this a 'shuanggui' case that has not been finalized, hurry up and give Mr. Ding a seat. Hey, by the way, bring up the stone pier engraved with the demon pattern, and let Ding Laoyuan quickly sit down and stabilize his mind. ”
Chang Fengmao also sat back in his seat and continued to care: "Oh, by the way, Old Man Ding didn't come to see me this time, right?" didn't wait for Ding Qingkun to answer, "I guess not, you're so busy." That is, he slaughtered a group of people of the same clan and made a blood demon drink? Or did the matter of fornicating with the demon clan let the court find out again? ”
Saying that, Chang Fengmao made a sad gesture, "Alas! Don't blame me for not reminding you, Old Man Ding, the imperial court has been 'cracking down' recently, I'm afraid you'll have to spend a little more time this time! But it doesn't matter, I believe that no matter how big the wind and waves are outside of the old man Ding, they can't overturn you! ”
Ding Qingkun's face was red for a while and white for a while, and he was almost disgusted. Tremblingly, he pointed at Chang Fengmao with his finger, "Okay, you Chang Fengmao, you slandered the old man so much, I'll go to the Governor of the road to ask for an explanation!" ”
Chang Fengmao said aggrievedly when he heard it, (At this time, I have to admire the heart and acting skills of the city lord, as the lord of a city, he can let go of his body, and his acting skills are good, it seems that the position of the city lord is really a little wronged by him): "Outside of Mr. Ding, don't I care about your safety?" How can I say that I slander you? ”
Then he looked around, and seemed to notice this full house, so he stomped his feet, "Oops! Don't be angry, I care too much, even if everything I say is for your good, you should pay attention to the occasion. Blame me, blame me, forget that you are still in the lobby at this time? The officer was negligent. Then he warned everyone with a serious face: "What the city lord just said, you should not have heard it, if anyone dares to talk nonsense to the outside world, Old Man Ding will never spare you!" ”
Ding Qingkun held a mouthful of old blood in his throat, staring at Chang Fengmao, his eyes were split.
After looking at this for a long time, the chief slowly put the heart in his throat back into his stomach, and it should be safe. This city lord and Ding Qingkun seem to have a disagreement for a long time, and they are hoping that someone can clean up the Ding family, otherwise why would they send us something? It's a thorn in his side that we fought and won, and he's happy.
Chang Fengmao smiled at Ding Qingkun, Ding Qingkun obviously couldn't cultivate at home, and scolded loudly: "Phew! You pretend to be crazy and stupid, the old man will never give up with you in this matter! With that, he flicked the sleeves of his robe, turned around and walked out.
When Ding Qingkun just walked to the gate, he only heard the sound of the startling wood behind him, Chang Fengmao seemed to be a different person, put away his playful and angry face, and played in a serious official tone, "Ding Yuan, go slowly!" You fornicated with bandits to mutilate your fellow villagers and sold our people to the demons to make blood demon drinks, but the matter is not over yet? ”
Ding Qingkun didn't expect Chang Fengmao's face to change all of a sudden, and he brought up the old things again, so he turned around and pointed at Chang Fengmao and scolded: "Chang Fengmao, the court has already found out that you want to spew blood from your mouth, and you want to make accusations here!" ”
Chang Fengmao snorted, "Okay, that's a good point, I'm rambling indiscriminately?" Then I'm going to ask Ding Yuanwai about it.,Last time there were demons in the Blood Demon Drink Workshop.,At that time, you said that you were just renting their garden.。 But what about this time? There are four demon generals in your Renyi Village, how do you explain it this time? Don't tell me that you rented Renyi Village to them again this time? ”
Ding Qingkun didn't show weakness either, "Explain what?" The imperial court didn't prohibit us from hiring demon personnel as guards, so is it difficult to report to you, the city lord, in advance? ”
Chang Fengmao didn't answer, but turned his head to look at the chief of Xiangyin Village, "Who are you?" ”
The chief of the security guard was named, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and replied: "I am the chief of Xiangyin Village, and my name is Sun Dingshan." Chang Fengmao then asked, "What is the current population of your village?" How much was the original? ”
The chief was asked about his sadness, and said in a low voice: "Lord of the city, there were originally as many as five or six hundred people in our village, but then the war continued, and the village fled to death," Speaking of this, the chief of the security department thought for a moment, this city lord was already at odds with the Ding family, and asked me if there was any other purpose for this? It is very likely that those people in our village who were captured were pulled by the Ding family to make the Blood Demon Drink, hum! Hum! Since your Ding family is unkind, then don't blame the little old man, I am unjust.
Thinking of this, the chief made up his mind, suddenly raised his hand to cover his face with the sleeves of his robe, cried quietly, and continued: "Since those bandits occupied the inn that was originally opened at the foot of the mountain in our village and changed it into a Renyi village, the people of our village have been constantly arrested, either to help them repair the village, or to catch demon beasts for them, or to pick herbs, and pay all kinds of taxes, if they can't pay it, they will be pulled away. ”
Speaking of this, the chief glared at Ding Qingkun angrily, and then crawled towards Chang Fengmao on his knees, "Lord City! Those who were taken away never came back, and now there are only 29 households and 62 people left in our village, and all of them are old, weak, sick and disabled......"
Ding Qingkun resisted the urge to slap this old thing to death on the spot with one palm, but his son didn't have such good patience, stepped forward and kicked the chief Sun Dingshan to the ground, and scolded: "You old bastard, if you dare to talk nonsense, I will kill you now!" Nong Anning stepped forward, pulled out the saber at his waist and put it in front of Ding Wendong. Chang Fengmao slapped the shocked wood, "Outside Ding, do you want to kill people in front of your own officials?" ”
After all, Ding Qingkun has some experience, and when he heard Chang Fengmao's words, he turned around and slapped his son twice, and then saluted Chang Fengmao: "When I heard this old man slandering our Ding family, I was angry for a while, so I would take the liberty of making a move. ”
