Chapter 34: The Heroes

Jiyin County, Dingtao County, Guansi.

"Dog slave, you'd better beat me to death, otherwise when the master goes out, I'll let you know......"

At this time, a man with a disheveled hair was being hung and whipped.

"What do you know, know your grandfather's ruthless work?"

In the dark cell, a black knife and pencil wielded a whip and pumped a few more times.

The screams are unbearable.

In the cell next to the torture cell, Li Gan shook when he heard the sound of the whip, and today he knew the respect of the sword and pen.

On that day, he dragged the corpse of the county official and threw it in a car, causing a commotion in the county temple.

The county official who was supposed to give Li Qianlai the temple an order, but now his body was lying in the car.

How could the county officials not be surprised, they never expected that this Li Qian was so strong and strong, and the atmosphere of the Guohan family.

But he was shocked, but no one came to take Li Gan.

On the one hand, the county officials and county officials of the county temple are all the sons of local heroes, and they are very familiar with Li Gan.

On the other hand, they were also dissatisfied with the county guard. This county guard is also too harsh, for a trivial matter, he persecuted the Li family who upheld loyalty and righteousness in this way.

Among the many county officials, there is an assistant official with a copper seal and a yellow ribbon waiting for him to give an order, and he is the county Gong Cao Weijing.

In a county official, Gong Cao is regarded as the "extreme position of the county", and the county guards have something, and it is basically Gong Cao who acts as the county officer.

Such a grand position can naturally be played by the children of the powerful families in the county.

This is the case with Wei Jing, who is from the Wei family of Jiyin Juyang, and his ancestor is Changle Weiwei of this dynasty.

As a first-class disciple of Beijing official Jiuqing, Wei Jing has his own temperament to distinguish himself from his colleagues.

Often feasting and drinking, Wei Jing after every drink, chanting:

"Life is sent for a lifetime, and it is like dust. Why don't you take a high step and ask for Lu Jin first."

He also loves to make fun of the spit pot with iron Ruyi.

Every time I feast and drink, I don't know how many spit pots will be broken, but the people of the county think they are suave and flock to it.

The heroes and celebrities in the county are all his long-term guests at the banquet in Wei Jing, and this Li Qian is naturally no exception.

Therefore, Wei Jing naturally did not embarrass Li Gan, and only asked people to help the dead county officials into the official temple, and took Li Gan to pay homage to the county guard Zhang Chong.

This will be Zhang Pet listening to his old wife's chatter.

His wife was like him, and she was born with a great and white complexion, which was a treasure to him. But this will be a treasure is throwing a tantrum:

"You are an old thing, you are a county guard in Jiaozhou, and you have a fortune of 50 million in three years.

You've been a Taishoudu in Ludi for four years, and you haven't seen anything to bring home, and you have to raise so many guests.

What is the use of those poor people, it is better to use my family to ensure that when we return to our hometown, we will have a hundred gold beads. ”

Zhang Pet was so worried by his wife that he didn't doubt his wife's promise.

If you appoint the clansmen of the old wife to manage the property, not to mention the thousands of cars after leaving office, I am afraid that hundreds of cars will not be able to fit.

Just because, the old wife is from the Hou family in Mi County, Henan County, and her family has been operating the industry for generations, and the family has a lot of money.

But he still couldn't help but scold:

"The person you said is called Sun Fen, and he went to the South China Sea to be an official and made enough money, but in the end he was served by Liang Ji. I told you a long time ago, a lot of money is a curse. ”

It's okay not to say this, but as soon as she said this, the old wife was even more angry:

"You don't fool around, you just learn more family law, yin and yang are in the brain, and if you don't earn money, you are stupid. Money is a curse, so why do so many people make it? ”

This choked Zhang Pet and became furious, but he couldn't speak.

Fortunately, at this time, Gong Cao Wei Jing came to pay respects, and he immediately fled and left.

As soon as he entered the office, he saw that Wei Jing and the chief Cao were there, and the county was Jinghua, and it was over.

There was also a person kneeling below, dressed in plain clothes, and it was Li Gan.

Zhang Pet was secretly cool, and was about to sit in the hall, when he suddenly saw a dead body in the corner outside the hall, and he looked familiar.

If you don't take a few more looks, then Li Gan will kowtow.

"The Ming Mansion is above, and the servant Li Qian is guilty. The first crime is to cross the border without permission. Sin 2: Accidentally killing the county official. I know that I will not forgive you for death, and I will beg for the death penalty. ”

When Zhang Pet heard this, he had a thought:

"What? Kill the magistrate, who is killed? ”

Thinking about the familiarity he had just glimpsed, he immediately came to his senses that this Li Gan had actually killed Ma Kuai, who had given his order.

When he landed, Zhang Pet's sweat came down.

He immediately looked outside the temple, it was full of people, and then looked at the Cao under the field, it was eyeing the tiger.

He didn't care much, and as soon as he lifted his buttocks, he ran to the back porch of the temple.

Only Li Gan and many county officials were left looking at each other.

Kneeling beside Wei Jing was the soldier Cao Bian Chong.

He was from Yiju County, just a middle-class family, but he had the courage and ability to do things, and was promoted by Zhang Chong as the commander of the soldiers.

Bian Chong'er attached Wei Jing and said suspiciously:

"Brother Wen Han, what's wrong with the lord. I was sitting just now, why did I suddenly run back to the back of the hall? Urgent? ”

Wei Jing thought about it, ordered the county guard's subordinate governor, and asked him to lead him to the back of the corridor to find Zhang Pet.

The Governor of the Gate, the captain of the county guard, is a villager of Zhang Pet, known for his courage and strength, and was extended by Zhang Pet as the Governor of the Door, and came to Jiyin with him to take office.

When the Governor took Wei Jing to find Zhang Chong, the backyard was in chaos.

Zhang Pet called the house slave to set up the car, and at the same time packed the valuable ones with all his hands and feet, and saw that there was a maid still with a pestle, and scolded her to hurry up and clean up for his wife.

After a busy job, Zhang Pet gnawed and panted, and when he saw Wei Jinglai, he patted his head and said:

"Wen Han, you hang my official seal and ribbon under the mulberry tree in the corridor. During the period when I unseal the ribbon, you will be in charge of the county affairs. ”

Wei Jing hurriedly said:

"Lord, what's wrong with you, what's wrong?"

"What's the matter? What do you say? Your Jiyin's heroism is really powerful.

The local tyrants dare to kill my county officials with open fire, and you tyrants dare to come to me directly with the murderers.

If I don't know how to resign again, I'm afraid that I will have an accident like the county official in the hall. ”

Wei Jing was frightened, he never expected that the county guard would do this idea.

Zhang Chong can't be blamed, it was he Wei Jing who lost his mind, and he should have directly sent Li Ganxian to the temple prison at that time.

Wei Jing immediately knelt on the ground, kissed Zhang Pet's hakama with his mouth, and cried:

"The lord is angry, this is the servant's misdemeanor. Fu Yuan thought that Li Gan had a hometown hope, and he didn't want him and the lord to be too stiff.

So he took him to pay homage to the lord on his own initiative, but he didn't want to put the lord in danger. Servant capital offense. ”

As he spoke, he took off the crown of Jinxian on his head, took off his robe, placed it neatly aside, and respectfully pleaded guilty.

Wei Jing was lying on his back, and Zhang Pet was also thinking about how much of Wei Jing's words were true.

After a while, Zhang Pet asked leisurely:

"Do you think Li Gan killed the county official out of anger, or was he really killed by mistake?"

Wei Jing thought for a moment and said seriously:

"Lord, the key to this matter is not why Li Gan killed the county official, but the fact that he threw himself into the temple. He came here to beg for death, otherwise he would have killed the county official at that time, and he would have gone to die. ”

"Death? Why? ”

"For the sake of the family, the minister knows this Li Gan's temperament, and what he thinks about is to raise the family's voice. Therefore, the lord does not need to be afraid of Li Gan, because he has fetters. ”

At this time, Zhang Pet suddenly realized that he was suspicious.

Then he ordered the disciples to no longer clean up, and as soon as they should be restored, they would take Shi Ran back to the hall with Wei Jing.

The chief Cao in the hall was waiting anxiously, and saw Wei Jing coming back with Zhang Chong, and they were in their respective positions.

"Ahem"

Zhang Pet regained his previous calmness at this time, and after he cleaned up twice, he spoke directly:

"Li Gan, since you know that the death penalty is inevitable, then this county will not say more. I only hope that you will think more and think more about your relatives and friends. Someone's coming! Li Qian was imprisoned in the temple. The autumn queen asked to chop. ”

Li Gan didn't say a word the whole time, but when he heard Zhang Chong talk about his relatives and friends, he trembled slightly, and then he was taken into custody by the county guard.

Then for more than ten days, except for Li Dian and some other clansmen, they bought the sword and pen officials of the prison temple and sent in some clothes and food, and Li Gan was never proposed to go again.

But even if there was no shortage of wine and meat, Li Gan still looked distressed at this time.

was locked up in it for more than ten days, and listened to those swordsmen and pencils all day long, torturing people by changing the law.

Just to squeeze the last bit of money out of those prisoners. And some of them are also for pure fun, that is, to play.

Sure enough, when he becomes a prisoner, he is no longer a human being, he is a chicken, a duck, a pig and a dog, to be slaughtered.

But these and the mental torture that Li Gan is suffering are not worth mentioning.

As we all know, waiting for death is more terrifying than dying directly.

Li Gan somewhat realized why all the criminals had to be beheaded after the autumn, just to punish them.

At this time, the knife and pen officer surnamed Dong had just finished whipping a light man and was walking to the side to drink water, when he saw Li Gan who closed his eyes and recuperated.

I don't know what to think, he came up and kicked Li Gan across the wooden threshold, and mocked:

"Yo, sure enough, it's the hero of our Cheng clan, this place can sit upright.

But what kind of celebrity do you pretend to be a gentleman, this place, you will cry if you make you cry, and you will laugh if you laugh. ”

After speaking, he whipped over, "Cry to the master." ”

Li Gan suffered an unwarranted disaster, and he was whipped to the point that his skin was broken.

But here and now, is there any difference from the scene where he brutalized the water in the military tent that night?

Li Gan was whipped with this whip, and only looked at the surnamed Dong.

He didn't know this person, and he didn't look at this kind of unpopular eater in the past.

But today, he stared at it, and he had to keep this man in his mind.

surnamed Dong, who was looked at Mao, said something to cheer himself up:

"You're a dead ghost, and you think you're a thing of the past. Dare to take a look, see if I can't kill you today. ”

As he spoke, he asked for another whip.

But the whip was stopped by a tall man.

The surnamed Dong was just about to scold, but when he turned around and saw this person, he immediately stopped the obscenity, dropped the whip, and knelt on the ground.

It turned out that this tall man was the chief of Cao Cao in this county, Wenwu, and he was the top boss surnamed Dong.

Wenwu is a member of the Jiyin Cheng clan, and Li Qian happens to be the same township.

He didn't come alone, to be more precise, he came with the county guard Zhang Pet and others.

Wenwu didn't care about the knife and pen official surnamed Dong, but immediately asked the people below to open the lock and ask Li Gan to come out.

Li Gan was still puzzled, so he saw Taishou Zhang Pet taking fat steps, grabbed his hand, and said:

"Brother, you have suffered."

What's going on?

Li Qian naturally didn't know that all this stemmed from the impact of the solar eclipse on Kyoto that day.

The fate of his little fish was decided by the dragon and tiger fight in Kyoto.
