Night, the county seat.

"Master Wang, come back tomorrow!"

In front of the Qinglou, the oily-haired and powder-faced bustard waved a small handkerchief and smiled coquettishly at the generous guests.

"Hey, hey, hey, after a while, after a while......"

Wang Shanhe hugged his fists with a smile on his face, and left the place with his legs a little weak.

He had just had a good time with the girl in the Qinglou, and he felt refreshed at this time.

Go to the Qinglou, add the tea fee, the tip for the bustard and the little girl, and the reward for watching the opera and listening to the music, and the minimum consumption is ten taels of silver.

Ten taels of silver is enough to buy 1,000 catties of rice, or 200 catties of pork! It can meet the food ration of a family of five for a year.

If it weren't for the windfall yesterday, he would have been a little reluctant to spend this money today.

"That old man is quite rich......

Wang Shanhe's heart was happy, and he walked on the road leisurely, and remembered the origin of this windfall.

As a government officer, he was responsible for collecting and registering the taxes of each household.

Yesterday there was a little old man who caught snakes, and he actually took out ten taels of silver to buy him, and begged him to pay for the number of strange snakes handed over with silver taels.

Hehe, the strange snake is a tax-paying thing designated by the imperial court, how can he be accommodating on it?

But the money has been taken out, and you still want to take it back? That's also impossible.

So he took the old man's money, and told him clearly that the weight of the strange snake would not be a tael less!

The little old man was stupid at that time, and knelt down and hugged his legs, crying and begging him to give him back the money.

Naturally, he refused, lifted the little old man and slapped him a few times, and then threw it on the ground and stepped on it a few times.

These civilians are all cheap bones, born slaves, and they will be honest if they are beaten well.

"It's a pity that today's Oiran of Chunfeng Building actually went home to save his relatives......"

After buying a few side dishes on the way, Wang Shanhe hummed a little song and walked towards his house.

He also asked two senior brothers to drink with him tonight, so he was in a very happy mood and his steps were very brisk.

I walked to my door, tapped on the door, and found that it was unlocked.

He was a little confused, but he didn't think too much about it, pushed the door and walked in, "Stinky woman, I'm back!" Why didn't you lock the door......"

Suddenly, the door behind him slammed shut, and the deadbolt locked.

Wang Shanhe turned around in shock, but was hit in the abdomen by a punch, and the force was so great that he vomited all the wine and food that Qinglou had eaten.

Before he could see the person clearly, he received another blow on his face, and half of his teeth were shattered.

"A good man spares his life......"

Being strangled by a big hand and seeing a masked man staring at him with the eyes of a dead man, Wang Shanhe hurriedly begged for mercy.

Although he also practiced martial arts when he was young, he later became an errand soldier, and he has long been deserted.

When someone came to attack, he couldn't even see the movements clearly, and he knew that he was far from being an opponent, so he didn't dare to resist at all.

Luo Sheng grabbed him by the neck, dragged him into the room, pressed him the wooden table, pulled out the steel knife and inserted it.

"Ahh

Wang Shanhe screamed, and one of his ears was cut off by a steel knife.

The corner of his eye swept to his mother-in-law and concubine who fell in a pool of blood, and his heart was even more cold, desperately begging for mercy.

"Heroes spare their lives! Heroes spare their lives......"

Luo Sheng looked at this fat-headed and big-eared official with cold eyes, smashed his nose with another punch, and said in a cold voice: "Money or death?" ”

"Ahh Asking for money...... Oh no, no, don't die! Wrong! Annoying! Annoying! ”

Wang Shanhe kept swallowing the blood poured into his nose, his heart was full of horror, and he didn't know how he could provoke such a strong man.

Luo Sheng asked again: "Where is the money?" ”

Wang Shanhe asked cautiously, "Just give money...... Can a good man let me go? ”

Luo Sheng let out a low laugh, "I have always made a move only for money, you and I have no grievances, why should I kill you?"

"If I lie to you, I will be cursed to cut off my children and grandchildren, and I will be alone for the rest of my life, how about it?"

Hearing the other party's assurance, Wang Shanhe's eyes lit up, and hope ignited in his heart, "Good, good!" I give money to the heroes......"

As long as they can save their lives with money, their daughters-in-law and concubines can remarry, and the lost money can be scavenged back from the untouchables.

Luo Sheng suddenly said in a cold voice, "Hurry up and get the money!" Or break your dog's legs! ”

Then he threw Wang Shanhe to the ground.

Wang Shanhe hurriedly got up, walked to a blue brick on the floor of the room, opened it and took out a clay pot from inside.

With a smile on his face that was more ugly than crying, he knelt on the ground and presented the clay pot with both hands.

"Hero, hero! The villain's money is here, please let the villain go...... The villain wishes you a bright future, a long life, and a safe ......."

If you eat, drink, and enjoy yourself on weekdays, you will become very afraid of death.

Luo Sheng opened the clay pot and found that it was filled with silver ingots and silver tickets, estimated to be thousands of taels.

Wang Shanhe, as an errand hired by the county order, is only a little more than 100 taels of silver for a year.

But he was able to live in a mansion, raise concubines, and hide thousands of taels of silver.

How much money did he loot from the people? How many people were forced to die by him?

Luo Sheng asked himself if he was not a good person, and he was not capable of managing so many grievances, but since his previous life, he hated these corrupt officials who bullied people the most!

"Hero, these silver taels are the income of the villain's decades of hard work...... Are you still satisfied? ”

Wang Shanhe smiled and asked cautiously.

"You're doing a great job, I'm satisfied......"

Luo Sheng took out a piece of cloth, packed all the silver coins and carried them on his shoulder, making the appearance that he was leaving.

Wang Shanhe breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that his life was saved, completely relieved, and had a feeling of the rest of his life.

But Luo Sheng took two steps, held the handle of the knife on his back with his right hand, tilted his head and said backwards:

"Suddenly I remembered something, I have an acquaintance, I don't know if you recognize him?"

Wang Shanhe's heart suddenly felt uneasy, "Who ......?"

"He is an old snake catcher, known as the snake master, but he committed suicide today......

Before Luo Sheng's words were finished, Wang Shanhe's expression changed, his face turned pale, and cold sweat flowed down instantly.

When he heard the person "Snake Master", he understood everything!

The other party has something to do with the old man who was robbed of money by him!

The old man is dead now! The other party is here to seek revenge, how can he let him go after taking the money?

"Help!"

Just as he opened his mouth wide to call for help, he turned around and tried to flee into the house.

An extremely fast sword light instantly crossed a distance of three or four zhang and slashed across his neck.

Blood sprayed, and a great head with a frightened face flew up!

From the joy of the rest of his life after the catastrophe to despair, he must have been able to taste a bit of the resentment of the snake master before he died.

"Lord Snake, rest ...... in peace"

Just when Luo Sheng wiped the blood from the blade, put the knife into the sheath, and wanted to leave.

"Bold thief! Ann dares to harm my junior brother?! ”

With a thunderous shout, the gate exploded like sawdust!

A person with a frightened face waved his palm and rushed towards Luo Sheng, it was Hong Zhutou who rushed to hear the cry for help!
