The Tianshui Governor's Mansion is located in the west of Tianshui County, with high walls and heavy guards.

Lu Gong also came to Tianshui County for the first time, in his original vision, this should be a majestic city, who knows that it is not like that at all.

On the street, the old man in ragged clothes sat on the side of the road like dry bones, begging for three days without a single harvest, carefully hiding the piece of bark under his buttocks, and constantly worried about being snatched by his peers.

After three years of drought, the bark of Tianshui County was almost stripped away.

Beside the old man lay a skinny girl, who was already ten years old, estimated to be less than thirty pounds, wearing a torn blanket, shivering on the ground.

"Grandpa, I'......m hungry," the girl swallowed.

"No way!" The old man was resolute and lowered his voice: "How many times have you said the truth that the husband is not guilty and guilty, don't you understand?" ”

"Grandpa, I don't want to understand, I just want to eat." She screamed suddenly, and got up to grab the piece of bark.

The old man had expected it, and reached out to hold her down.

With a snap, the girl fell and broke her head and bled out. When the old man saw this scene, he was so distressed that tears flowed, and he hugged her in his arms, and he suddenly found that there was no movement in his arms.

"Oh my God, what kind of world is this!" The old man burst into tears. However, he didn't dare to let go at all, once he let those inhuman things know, he would definitely snatch them to replace the copper plate. I heard that a fresh dead man can be exchanged for 200 copper plates.

Why can't I?

The old man's crying suddenly stopped, and he hugged his granddaughter's corpse, moved to the front of the governor's mansion, and threw himself on the steps in front of him before he was discovered.

"My lord, I have a corpse here, a fresh corpse ......"

More than a dozen eyes were locked on him, and from all directions, several beggars rushed over, but before they could get closer, a whip whipped them out and broke their blood.

The officers and soldiers in armor raised long whips in their hands to drive out these things that did not know whether they were alive or dead, looked down at the old man, and said softly: "Come, show me." ”

The old man hurriedly opened his arms, revealing his granddaughter inside.

"Well, that's good. Put it down, get out of here......" A few copper plates fell to the ground.

The old man looked at the eight copper plates on the ground and raised his bark-like face. "My lord, didn't you say you could exchange two hundred?"

"Grass, adults don't need to eat." kicked on the old man's head, ignoring the blood stains all over the ground, the officers and soldiers carried the female baby like a chicken, and walked into the governor's mansion.

Outside the door, a group of beggars rushed over and held the old man down, and in a blink of an eye, eight copper coins were snatched up.

The guards next to him looked ahead as if they hadn't seen anything.

"Yun'er, grandpa can't stand you." The old man wept bitterly.

It was noon, and the wine and meat were already fragrant in the Governor's Mansion.

"Your Excellency, please eat." The lovely girl served the last dish, filled her glass, swallowed, and carefully stepped aside.

Lord Du Wei is eight feet tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he still shows a strong body of muscles even in spring. He untied the long sword at his waist, washed his hands on the basin sent by his subordinates, raised his glass and took a sip, and praised: "This old carving is different, no wonder the county guard is in his heart." ”

Putting down the wine glass, Lord Du Wei took a bite of the food, and suddenly spit on the ground, glaring angrily with big eyes: "What kind of thing is this?" ”

The girl was frightened, and lowered her head and did not dare to speak.

"You did this?"

The girl still didn't dare to speak, he knew that today's leeks must not be to the appetite of adults, but there was really no way, now that there is a big drought, there are fewer and fewer leeks that have just emerged.

She walked through the whole market this morning, but she couldn't buy it, so she could only buy some random ones that had been coming back for a few days.

Thinking about it, the girl's eyes were already red.

"Your father exchanged you for ten taels of silver from me, and that's how you repay me?" The Lieutenant turned his head.

The girl trembled in an instant and knelt down directly. "My lord, I walked to several markets, but I couldn't buy them, and these are the best ones."

"Really?" Lord Du Wei was just about to get angry, when the corner of his eye suddenly caught a glimpse of the girl's pear blossom with rain.

After two months of recuperation, this thin little girl now looks fresh.

Lord Lieutenant's eyes lit up. "Don't be afraid, come here!"

The girl didn't dare to move.

"Don't worry, the adults won't beat you."

"My lord, I won't dare in the future." The girl shivered.

Lord Duwei's pity suddenly rose, and he walked over with a smile on his face, and pulled up the girl: "Come, don't be afraid......"

"Your Excellency...... Don't, sir. The slave was not yet thirteen years old. ”

The lieutenant suddenly crushed the girl with force.

"Ouch...... Who ......" He suddenly let out a scream, jumped up from the ground suddenly, and reached out to touch it, and it was already flesh and blood.

The girl hurried out, and before she could take two steps, he grabbed her by the hair and pulled her back. Du Wei turned his head and found that there was an extra box on the dinner table at some point, he realized something, and his eyes froze: "Lu Gong? ”

Before sending officers and soldiers to Qinglan Mountain, they had already mastered the basic information, and they were even more impressed by this key exposition box.

"Lord Lieutenant has a good eye." Lu Gong opened his mouth and found that the captain in front of him could actually hear it, and it was obvious that he also had a certain amount of cultivation.

When the lieutenant heard the voice, his face moved slightly, and there was a sneer on the corner of his mouth: "Lord County Guard, please don't go, but come to me here to spoil my good deeds, is it possible that you are also good?" ”

As he spoke, he pulled the girl back.

When the girl saw him talking to a box, she was so frightened that she opened her mouth wide and couldn't speak.

Lu Gong knew very well that behind Lord Duwei, it was his sword, but he didn't care about it, and the scene that happened at the gate of Duwei's Mansion when he came in just now came to mind.

"Why did your lord send people to destroy the peace of Qinglan Mountain?" Lu Gong asked.

"Lu Gong, don't ask knowingly." He suddenly pushed the girl away, turned around and held the sword in his hand, and stared at Lu Gong coldly: "If you can sneak in secretly, you have some ability." It's just that today, I'm afraid you don't want to leave in its entirety. ”

The girl slumped to the ground and crawled into the corner, shivering.

"So, is the adult admitting what he did to Qinglan Mountain?" Lu Gong asked.

Du Wei pulled out his long sword with a snort, pointed at Lu Gong, and licked his lips. "Come on, when you're done, Captain Pontus will be happy with this little girl."

"Two more questions, I hope you can answer me." Lu Gong continued.

"Answer your mother!" Du Wei shouted, pounced, and slashed at Lu Gong with a sword.

He was extremely fast, and the sword in his hand was even more cold and sharp.

The "pop ......" square table was directly cut into two pieces by him, and the wine and food smashed to the ground.
