Chapter 18: Hou Wu ran away
Ma Ye's view of Li Yuanjing's behavior has changed greatly at this time, and there are so many people watching, so he immediately shouted to Hou Wu in a cold voice:
"Hou Wu! Li Shusheng's autumn tax has been paid, what about yours?! ”
"This ......"
Hou Wu's face turned red, but he couldn't say a word for a while.
Wang Cuihua next to her also looked similar, and she couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
Today, I originally came to clean up Li Yuanjing, watch Li Yuanjing's jokes, and then trample Li Yuanjing to death.
What do you think......
actually overturned in the gutter, and it was they who were embarrassed......
Xue An's face was also cloudy, but he didn't say a word, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Hou Wu!"
"Are you deaf from a donkey? Why don't you hurry up and pay the autumn tax?! Believe it or not, I'll lock you in the county jail now, and send you to Liaodong to fill the army! ”
Seeing that Hou Wu didn't speak, looking like he couldn't pay the autumn tax, how could Ma Ye be polite to him again? While drinking, he also winked at the soap man next to him.
The soap officer suddenly realized, and had already circled to Hou Wu's side, as if he was ready to take Hou Wu at any time.
"Master Ma, I, I'm afraid that I won't be able to make it over for a while, so please forgive me for a few days......"
Hou Wu's whole person was like a frosted eggplant, and he hurriedly groveled to Ma Ye again and again.
"Ugh!"
However, just when everyone was laughing and watching Hou Wu's jokes.
Sudden change!
Hou Wu, who was originally groveling, suddenly burst into a violent rage, swept through the door of Ma Ye's face with a fierce fist, and directly smashed Ma Ye to the ground.
He quickly bypassed the soapman next to him, pouted his ass and ran towards the back hill.
While running back, he shouted:
"Li Yuanjing, you dog mongrel, Lao Tzu will kill your whole family sooner or later, sell your little lady to the kiln and let 10,000 people ride !!"
It happened so suddenly.
After Hou Wu ran out of more than a dozen steps, everyone reacted and hurriedly chased after him.
But Hou Wu has already taken the lead, how can the villagers behind catch up?
"It's the other way around!"
"Diao Min, Diao Min actually dares to beat me?! Chase, chase!! ”
Ma Ye only got up from the ground at this time, and screamed angrily.
Suddenly, more people went to chase Hou Wu.
In the yard.
Li Yuanjing originally wanted to chase Hou Wu, but after only a moment of hesitation, he dispelled this idea.
Hou Wu's physical fitness is still very good, and with Li Yuanjing's physical state at this time, he may not be able to catch up with him.
Again.
Hou Wu has cut himself off from the people, and Li Yuanjing must deal with the more important aftermath of the aftermath!
…
Not much.
The crowd returned one after another, scolding and scolding one by one, all of them were very unhappy, obviously they didn't catch Hou Wu.
Li Yuanjing was calm in his heart.
With the intricate terrain of the back mountain, once a person gets into the old forest, how can he catch it?
The old village chief was ashamed to apologize to Ma Ye and said:
"Master Ma, I'm ashamed. How did you think that there was such a bastard thing in our Quanzi Village......"
Although Ma Ye is also very unhappy, he still needs the help of the old village chief for many follow-up autumn tax affairs, and this is obviously not the old village chief's fault, so he can only say in an urn:
"Old village chief, don't blame yourself, I'll let people inform the county immediately, and then transfer the messenger over! Hou Wu, the thief, must be arrested and brought to justice! ”
Li Yuanjing saw that the heat was almost over, and said to Ma Ye:
"Ma Ye, it's not difficult to catch this Hou Wu, the student has a plan, and he can share his worries for Ma Ye......"
"Huh?"
Ma Ye raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Yuanjing busily.
Li Yuanjing hurriedly approached Ma Ye and whispered a few words to him in a low voice.
Ma Ye's old eyes suddenly lit up, and he directly pointed to Wang Cuihua, who was watching the excitement next to him, and shouted:
"Arrest this Hou Wu's accomplice and immediately escort him to the county office!"
"Yes!"
The errand officer next to him immediately stepped forward to restrain Wang Cuihua.
Wang Cuihua suddenly screamed in pain:
"Wronged, official, the people's women are wronged, wronged, the people's women are not Hou Wu's accomplices......"
How.
How could the errand officer have mercy on Wang Cuihua?
Soon tied Wang Cuihua firmly and gagged her mouth again.
Ma Ye had Wang Cuihua in his hand at this time, which could be regarded as a great benefit to Li Yuanjing, after all, Wang Cuihua went in and thought of it again, it was not something that could be solved by one, two, two, or three taels of silver.
Hurriedly smiled and said to Li Yuanjing:
"Brother Li, don't be afraid. I have asked people to go back to the county government to ask for support, and I must arrest Hou Wu, a thief, and I will never let him go unpunished! ”
Li Yuanjing hurriedly smiled and said yes, and patted the horse again and again.
But in his heart, he secretly said:
He's afraid of five ghosts!
is even worried that Hou Wu will not come.
If Hou Wu, a dog mongrel, wants to play yin, Li Yuanjing will never let him live again!
In later generations, Li Yuanjing has not done this kind of thing, but the method is more obscure.
And the only pity today is that Xue An's bastard ran a little fast, and he slipped away when the villagers went to chase Hou Wu.
Otherwise, if you arrest him and put him in prison, it will be lively.
…
When Ma Ye and the others went to another house to collect the autumn tax, the old village chief came to Li Yuanjing and sighed:
"Yuanjing, Wang Cuihua, this girl, hey...... That's it, it's your young man's world now. ”
said.
He patted Li Yuanjing on the shoulder:
"Yuanjing, don't worry, these days, I will be on duty in person, and I will never let Hou Wu's dog cub mess around!"
Seeing the old village chief leave quickly, Li Yuanjing's eyes narrowed slightly, but he was soon relieved.
The old village chief obviously also recognized Li Yuanjing's previous incident against Wang Cuihua.
After all.
Wang Cuihua, the evil matchmaker, has a good reputation in the village.
If she hadn't provoked Li Yuanjing again and again, how could Li Yuanjing get her?
And now, there has been such a big battle, how dare Hou Wu come?
Even if he really wants to take revenge, I'm afraid he will have to wait for this limelight to pass, after the autumn tax is over and the officers are withdrawn.
Li Yuanjing immediately stopped thinking about it and was busy with his own with peace of mind.
After spending a lot of effort and coaxing Yu Niang, Li Yuanjing began to devote himself to the production of wolf traps.
By noon, the wolf trap was ready, except for the wooden tips that needed to be prepared by Zhang Kun and his family.
Li Yuanjing and Yu Niang had lunch, and they no longer stayed at home, and followed the villagers to watch the excitement of the autumn tax collection.
The main Yu Niang was really a little scared by Hou Wu, she was still very scared, only a lot of people could make her feel safe.
This also made Li Yuanjing secretly make up his mind!
I have to find a chance to get rid of Hou Wu, the vicious dog!
…
Ordinary people pay autumn taxes, obviously not as proper as Li Yuanjing.
It's really everything.
Even......
Some people directly use their young children to pay their debts......
What's even more terrifying is ......
Ma Ye actually accepted it all.
Originally......
There have long been slave traders on the side of the errand servants,
The kind of little boys and girls who are more intelligent and beautiful can not only pay the autumn tax, but the slave traders can even find some silver for these villagers.
Li Yuanjing was really amazed, and he didn't know what it was like in his heart for a while.
"Hey, second girl, have you heard? Last night, it seemed that someone was bitten alive by a wolf on the side of Pijiazhuang. ”
"What? It's scary, isn't it? How much it hurts......"
"Who doesn't say it, I heard that the unlucky ghost in Pijiazhuang was bitten off by the wolf."
Just as Li Yuanjing was sighing and comforting Yu Niang, suddenly a few mothers-in-law chattered about the wolf bite, which immediately attracted the attention of many villagers.
Even the misery of selling children and daughters to tax deductions here has been talked about a lot.
Li Yuanjing's ears were also pricked up, and he hurriedly pulled Yu Niang to the side of these people and listened carefully.
