Chapter Ninety-Six: It Turned Out to Be the Same Door
In the afternoon, there was finally a earthen city in front of the road to the north, the sun was in full bloom, shining on the city wall of the loess lei, the golden was like a golden city dazzling and dazzling.
In the troubled times, it is very common to besiege towns and build cities, and the city walls have been pursued for thousands of years, and the ancestors were mainly to prevent wild beasts, and with the evolution of civilization, it gradually evolved into the function of human beings fighting for territory and defending against war. Nowadays, bandits and warlords are rampant in the world, and although the artillery and muskets are extraordinary, the function of the city wall is still not to be underestimated.
At the gate of the city, there are barricades blocking the way, leaving only a small opening for passers-by, and the barricades will be removed if there are cars and horses passing by. Several gun-carrying merchants were checking the people and merchants, as if they were asking about the origin of passers-by. There was a dry young man who didn't know what the reason was, and he offended the soldier for interrogation, and was directly knocked to the ground with the butt of a soldier's gun.
Niang Xipi, I was shocked again, gasped, and felt a pain in the flesh for that passer-by! I don't know what is going on, this small town has soldiers and is so rigorous. Both of us are outsiders, and although we have no criminal record, if the soldier in this troubled world wants to embarrass you, he will not care whether you have broken the law or not. I glanced at my master, Wang Laoxi, and saw that he was also frowning, and seemed to be thinking about how to enter the town. If you can't enter the town today, you will not only have to sleep in the wilderness, but you will also have to go hungry, mainly water, and you don't know where to supply it.
After thinking about it for a while, the master still said to me, "Take a closer look first, and act when the opportunity arises." ”
After I listened, I followed the master carrying the fortune teller and walked forward, just a few steps, the master stopped a man out of the town, and after an inquiry, the passerby said:
"In recent days, children have often been lost in the town and several nearby villages, so that people with children are panicked, so the town office called the police station and the security team to start to increase their efforts to adjust the friction, I think the two are outsiders or do not enter the town, so as not to be taken down as human traffickers."
After a kind reminder from the passers-by, they rushed away, and the master and I knew why we were rubbing, so we made up our minds and continued to move forward.
………
"Stop." With a shout, a tall man with a gun came over, and saw that the head was at least 1.9 meters thin and tall! I'm a little afraid, in this era, there is a gun is the king's law, and there is no difference between the so-called soldiers and bandits, otherwise there will be a family of soldiers and bandits, these soldiers have an extra skin that can oppress the people at will, in case he gives himself a shot, it will be in vain...... There is no place to intercede. So my master and I immediately stood in front of the barricade into the city, not daring to take a single step.
"Old man, I don't think you're locals, you're traffickers." The mab soldier in front of him asked as he wanted to add to his guilt.
I was a little dazed when he asked, and I completely forgot the answer I wanted to answer on the road! In an instant, I thought of the scene where I was used as a scapegoat and then shot, I was tied to the execution stake, and then a large group of people shouted to kill this trafficker, and kept throwing rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs at myself, and then I was shot to death, and I felt terrible when I thought about it! Death is terrible, and unjust death is even more terrible.
The master also frowned slightly, and glanced at the tall soldier, although he was an old man, but he didn't expect to be detained as soon as he stepped forward, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. If you want to add to the sin, there is no excuse, sometimes it is useless to shout injustice loudly, if you cry dad and call your mother, it will be disgusting, and it is more miraculous to say it in a soft voice.
When the tall soldier saw that neither of us had answered, he pointed his gun at me and said, "Damn, if you are a human trafficker, do you hear that?" ”
I was shocked again, I have often seen soldiers over the years, to say that it is the first time to be pointed at gunpoint, I can't help but have some palpitations, and I can't care much less in a hurry: "Back to the military master, the little duty is cowardly, how dare you do that hurtful thing." ”
The tall soldier glared at the bull's eye and shouted: "Good man, look at your kid's eyebrows and rat eyes, you must not be a good person, and this old stick is also dignified, it must be a human trafficker who came to step on the plate..."
As soon as I heard it, I scolded for a while, this soldier and bandit really stared at his eyes and told lies, I thought that although I was not handsome, I had nothing to do with the thief's eyebrows. I thought about it for a moment, and suddenly it dawned on me, this is broken, presumably there will be a reward for this case, this product must want to convict me and the old man and receive the reward, otherwise I won't insist on giving Ann a crime!
I was stuck, I didn't say anything for a while, and the master finally spoke: "This, official, hello, I'm a timid kid, I can't speak when I'm scared, don't be surprised." ”
As soon as the master stretched out his hand, he handed a piece of silver dollar to him, and when the tall soldier saw the silver, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his gloomy face instantly turned into a cheap smile, and then he said: "It's okay, the little brother is a proper person at a glance, and the immortal chief must be a master of the Daomen when he sees it." ”
I scolded in my heart, this grandson turned out to see that we were outsiders and were bullies, and deliberately embarrassed him!
Just then, an officer with a crooked hat and a beard approached with two GIs. In a blink of an eye, I was shocked again, and said in my heart, this is bad, there is another official, it seems that he is going to break the fortune again!
As I was sighing, the tall soldier who had received the money was about to stuff the silver dollar into his pocket, and before his hand could reach into his pocket, the officer, who had already walked behind him, kicked the tall soldier in the back of the waist as soon as he raised his foot, and immediately kicked the soldier who had just received the money into a big fork, and he lay on the ground with a 'snap', and the silver dollar in his hand was also shot, and the bearded officer grabbed the silver dollar as soon as he raised his hand.
All this was a blink of an eye, I was stunned when I saw it, and before I could react, the bearded officer who caught the silver dollar flying out opened his mouth and scolded: "Damn, you dare to take bribes, and the reputation of the handsome man has been smashed and discredited by you like this." ”
At this time, when the soldier who was kicked on his stomach was about to get up, the bearded officer said to the two soldiers beside him: "Go and drag this soldier oil to Lao Tzu, go back and whip twenty lashes, and vent Lao Tzu's anger." ”
The two soldiers were not lazy, and directly stepped forward to pick up the tall soldier who had not yet gotten up, and the tall soldier had just been picked up and had not turned around, and immediately begged for mercy: "The captain doesn't dare anymore, you spare your life..."
The bearded officer scolded again, waved his hand and said, "Okay, let him go, it's not fun to beat soft eggs"
When the two soldiers heard the order, they let go of the tall soldier, and the tall soldier who had just been let go hurriedly said, "Captain Xie, the little one won't dare next time." ”
The bearded man waved his hand and said in annoyance: "Get out, I'm looking for you to settle accounts with you when I go back." ”
The tall man did not stop after hearing this, and hurriedly left, and as soon as the tall soldier left, the bearded officer came to the master with a smile on his face, and the cheap smile on his face should not be like a trouble, but like a flattery, which made me very puzzled. The master is a poor fortune teller, and I don't know what reason can make a soldier slip and shoot a horse? Just as I guessed. As soon as the bearded officer spoke, I was taken aback.
"Master, it's a coincidence that I can meet you here, and my apprentice Sun Rong won't kowtow to you when he pretends to be on his body."
