Seven or eight men dressed in official clothes surrounded them, and the one who took the lead was slightly black and fat.

"Childe, you're frightened. The black fat man made a gesture at Yuan Wuren.

"Zhao Zhutou, you came just in time to arrest them all. "Yuan Wuren is like a commanding subordinate.

"I don't know which one Gongzi wants to catch?" Zhao Zhutou asked.

"Catch a few little ones first," Yuan Wuren said.

"What's the crime of calling Hanako? You hit him, you should pay for him to heal his injuries!"

"Yes, yes, Xiao Yuhua is not guilty, and the beater is guilty!".

The crowd began to heckle and shout.

Zhao Zhutou looked at the crowd, and whispered to Yuan Wuren with a little embarrassment: "Son, everyone is angry, let me catch a few Huazi and go back, they will not die for their crimes, and they have to take care of their food, and the master will definitely be unhappy." After speaking, he glanced at Yuan Wuren again, and whispered: "Gongzi should understand that Ming people sometimes have to do some dark things, anyway, they are not the registered population of this city." ”

Yuan Wuren comprehended.

"Are these two entertainers caught?"

"Catch, the child's face can't be lost in vain, how much do you have to get a few brothers to pay for a table of wine, catch the small ones but not the old ones, the old ones can get money, let's see that the ransom is about the same and then put the small ones." ”

"Wonderful, Zhao Zhutou is really tall!" Yuan Wuren gave a thumbs up.

Zhao Zhutou turned his head to Master Chen.

"You're armed to make trouble, and we're going to arrest you routinely. ”

"Why did you arrest me? The villagers can testify to me that I didn't cause trouble. "Master Chen is righteous and stern.

"Yes, Master Chen didn't fight, Yuan Gongzi and they used knives to cut people, why didn't they arrest them?"

"Master Chen is innocent, Yuan Gongzi is guilty!"

There was another heckling in the crowd, and the emotions were intense.

Zhao Zhutou clasped his hands into fists and frequently saluted the crowd.

"Since the villagers have proved that Master Chen did not participate in the fight, I will give everyone a face and stop arresting him, but in this peaceful and prosperous world, dancing with knives and guns in broad daylight is really hurtful and civilized, and there is a suspicion of plotting rebellion. After our follow-up investigation, Master Chen's apprentice is inseparable from the rebel sect, and we will arrest him and go back to review and collect evidence. ”

"If you want to add sin, what is the reason of heaven?"

The crowd cried again.

Zhao Zhutou raised his knife and shouted:

"Everyone, please calm down, the great crime of rebellion is related to the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, who can come forward to prove that he is innocent? If someone guarantees it, you can not arrest him for the time being. Besides, taking him is only to assist in the investigation, and if he is indeed innocent, he will be released soon, and we will never let go of a bad person, nor will we wronged a good person. ”

The crowd quieted down, although everyone was holding their breath, but no one could afford to be charged with the Nine Clans.

"There is no need to serve the world!" Master Chen was furious.

"As long as you take it. Zhao Zhutou sneered.

"Come on, take that little showman away. ”

The yamen rushed up, grabbed Master Chen's apprentice and headed in the direction of the county ya, followed by Yuan Wuren.

The crowd dispersed amid scolding and sighing.

Feng'er and Ah Niu picked up the beaten little screaming flower and helped him wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"Master Chen, I hurt you," Feng'er said.

"Child, you are doing the right thing, the people of the rivers and lakes will be saved when they see death, they will catch the big life and go back, just to want some silver taels, and there will be no worries about life. I'll find a way to get enough money to send it to them, and you won't have to worry about it. ”

"Master Chen, why don't you let me go and change the big student back. Feng'er said seriously.

"Silly boy, they don't arrest you, they just know you don't have any money. By the way, I have trauma medicine in my box, so I'll put it on this little brother. ”

"Master Chen, where are you going to get so many silver taels?"

"I have a few brothers and sisters near Yanshan, let them help think of a way. Feng'er, where do you live?"

"It's in the North Broken Temple of Yancheng, and my father. ”

"You go back first, be vigilant, I will go to you when I redeem the great life, I can't stay in that place, I'm afraid Yancheng is not a place to stay for a long time." ”3

"Okay, Master Chen, you should be careful. ”

"I will, go back kid. ”

Feng'er and Ah Niu helped Xiao Xiaohua back to the broken temple.

When the old beggar heard what had happened, he was filled with righteous indignation: "If you bully the weak, you should be punished for your crimes!

Xiao Xiaohua has recovered from the fright, and her thin yellow face reveals a bit of beauty.

"What's your name?" asked Feng'er.

"My name is Du Ling. "It's called ikebana.

"How did you come out to beg for food?"

"My mother died early, my father married me a stepmother, and then I had a younger brother, my stepmother let me do heavy work, eat leftovers, a little unsatisfactory is either beaten or scolded, at first my father also said a fair word, persuade her, slowly, my father also pretended to be deaf and dumb, sometimes with her to beat me and scold me, what is even more hateful is that my father listened to the words of the stepmother, to sell me ten taels of silver to the king, no way, I had to escape. ”

Du Ling wiped his eyes as he spoke, Feng'er hadn't even seen his mother, let alone his stepmother, and he didn't know how to persuade him.

But Ah Niu was arrogant and stood up and said: "Ah Ling, don't be afraid, you take us to your house, and Feng'er and I will beat your stepmother, so that she will not dare to bully you in the future." ”

Du Ling wiped his eyes and said, "Thank you, what's your name?"

"My name is Ah Niu, his name is Feng'er, and that is Uncle Lin. A Niu introduced.

"Thank you, Brother Niu, Brother Feng'er, if it weren't for you today, I would have been beaten to death by those people. Du Ling's face was full of gratitude.

"You're welcome, that's what we're supposed to do. Feng'er said.

"Uncle Lin, I'm sorry for your trouble. Du Ling apologized to the old beggar again.

"Alas, hard-working children, they are all fallen people at the end of the world, why should they have known each other when they meet. Alas!" the old beggar sighed.

The three children quickly forgot their sorrow and talked and laughed.

"I don't know how Master Chen is doing now. Feng'er suddenly remembered Master Chen again.

"Master Chen is really a good person, but where did he get so much money?" Du Ling began to feel sad again.

"Feng'er, why don't we go and rescue Dasheng at night?"

"It's not easy to say, it's the county government. Feng'er said.

The three of them were all in a hurry, as if they saw the leather whips waving in the torture chamber, and heard the pain of Dasheng*.

"The clear blue sky cannot be deceived, and everyone knows the merits of good and evil. The old beggar seemed to have nothing to express his righteous indignation except his mouth full of poetry.

What's the use?

The four men looked at each other and sat and waited for the sun to go west until it disappeared into the sky.
