Chapter 31 Robbery in the Downtown Area
When leaving the room, Jiang Qi only learned from Qiao Xuan that his old Taoist master had taken the baby to meet his Taoist friends after having a morning meal, and he would come back later.
Thinking that he had been locked up at home since he was a child, and then went to the mountains to seek medical treatment and had never seen the outside world at all, Jiang Qi suddenly had a feeling of breaking free from the reins and letting you gallop.
After getting out of the cage, Jiang Qi hurriedly borrowed a horse from the owner of the bridge and told him that he wanted to go into the city for a walk.
Finally, after saying goodbye to Qiao Xuan's kindness in arranging the guide, Jiang Qi unceremoniously accepted the bag of money he was given, and then ran towards the quaint city wall not far away.
Accustomed to riding chasing clouds thousands of miles a day, and then riding this short horse in the south, Jiang Qi directly called the best horse in the village under the crotch an inferior horse.
Accustomed to galloping, he was now riding this inferior horse with a head about as tall as him, and for a while he felt like he was riding a donkey. However, although Jiang Qi was a little crazy about the turtle speed, in the eyes of the pedestrians on the road, he was galloping on his horse, and the people he saw speculated about which son came out to make trouble.
Just when Jiang Qi was angry for the bad horse, the person had already arrived in Shu County, where he didn't go last night. Passing through a few soldiers who were crookedly dragging this weapon to bask in the sun, Jiang Qi walked all the way towards the market in the north of the county.
When he came out, he had already inquired from his subordinates, and the city, like most places, was divided into two cities. To the south, there are mainly inns, restaurants, shops, and other places, and to the north are places where small goods, goods, and livestock are sold, and it is also the most lively place in the city.
The purpose of Jiang Qi's trip was very simple, he heard that there was a very famous blacksmith shop in the bazaar, so he decided to make a few flying knives.
Riding a horse through the eastern city, which is mainly dominated by the courtyards of the government, the streets gradually become lively, and you can see all kinds of carriages, ox carts, and pedestrians shuttling around.
Looking at the lively streets and listening to the noisy shouting, Jiang Qi, who had never seen the market at all, was pleasantly surprised. Jiang Qi, who was like a hillbilly, immediately kept looking around, and his eyes were full of novelties, and he felt that his eyes were not enough for a while.
However, when Jiang Qi looked around curiously, he didn't find that he was brightly dressed, tall-headed, and dressed as a noble son, which was a little out of place with the people who were busy around. The first thing people who saw him felt was that the young man had gone on a trip.
Because of this, people dodged everywhere they saw Jiang Qi's mount passing, fearing that one would accidentally offend the master.
Of course, not everyone is afraid of wealth and nobility, just when Jiang Qi was reining the horse and admiring the bazaar he had never seen before, suddenly a small figure appeared in front of him.
Perhaps fascinated by the surrounding scenery, it was a little late when Jiang Qi found out about this unexpected scene, seeing that the galloping horse was about to hit the child who suddenly burst out in front of him, everyone present except Jiang Qi screamed one after another.
In the face of unexpected situations, if you were someone else, you might find a tragedy, but fortunately, Jiang Qi usually worked hard in riding, and now it is just happening.
Seeing the passers-by close at hand, Jiang Qi tightened the reins, and then clamped the horse's belly with his legs and pulled hard. The next moment, the mount, which had been pulled vigorously, suddenly stood upright in pain.
The mount was raised, and after seeing the horse's front hooves scurrying in the air a few times, when it was guided by Jiang Qi with the reins, Shengsheng leaned to the left and crossed the street in a blink of an eye. Looking at Jiang Qi's superb riding skills, after being surprised, the passers-by on both sides of the street all cheered in admiration.
After stabilizing the mount, he wiped the cold sweat on the top of his head, Jiang Qi quickly raised his left foot and flicked the reins and jumped off the horse steadily. Jiang Qi didn't have time to think about it on horseback, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help up the child who was frightened by the horse's hooves and fell on the street.
With Jiang Qi's movements, people on both sides of the street who watched the excitement also gathered around, wanting to see if there was any excitement to see, and the surrounding actions were about to show the characteristics of the Han people to the fullest.
"Are you alright?" Jiang Qi picked up the frightened child on the ground, who was dressed in rags and unkempt, and asked in a panic.
During the questioning, Jiang Qi looked at the thin child in front of him, looked at the two godless eyes on his dirty face, and for a while Jiang Qi really didn't recognize whether the child in front of him was a man or a woman.
However, although the child was dirty, Jiang Qi did not dislike it at all, and took out his own handkerchief to bandage his worn palm during the inquiry.
"Get out of the way, get out of the wayγγγγ" Just as Jiang Qi picked up the child on the ground to bandage his wounds, several weak-crowned men separated from the lively crowd and shouted and walked over.
As a few people with crab steps rolled up their sleeves appeared, everyone who watched the excitement knew that these splashes had come to slander people again, but although passers-by didn't want to see a few splashes, none of them dared to stop them and dodged aside.
As soon as several people appeared, one of them immediately stepped forward, and then said in a caring tone: "Ah! Little sister, are you alright? Don't scare my brother,"
However, although it seemed that the strong man was affectionate, the scar on the strong man's face from the corner of his mouth to his chin, and the hideous face could not show that he and the thin child in front of him were brother and sister.
Sure enough, after the fake care, he didn't continue to act, and immediately walked straight to Jiang Qi's mount without concealment.
As he approached, Scarface stretched out his rough hand with joy and excitement and touched the horse's body with great tenderness. There is so much more tenderness than caring for the frightened child just now.
The scar man stroked the horse, and a very obscene minion smiled and asked in a low voice, "Big brother, how is this horse!" β
Listening to the inquiry, Scar Man nodded with satisfaction, "It's not bad, it's enough to sell it for a few brothers to be chic for a while", and his tone of voice was as if the horse had become his own item.
After receiving the instructions of the eldest brother, a trace of greed appeared in the eyes of the lewd man, and with the greedy heart, the lewd man looked at Jiang Qi. Looking at Jiang Qi, who was handsomely dressed and gorgeously dressed in front of him, and looked like a rich son, the lewd man smiled, and the laughter indirectly changed the lewd man into a hideous smile.
But just when the lewd man thought that the performance time had begun, he knew that in Jiang Qi's eyes, he was like a monkey in the mountains doing a funny show. As the performance began, Jiang Qi couldn't help but reply to him with a cold snort.
It was also Jiang Qi who fell into the eyes of the lewd man with his contemptuous appearance, which aroused his originally fragile self-esteem. originally thought that a look could scare away this rich man's lewd man, but the next moment he was very angry, and the consequences were naturally very serious.
When there were thousands of ways to play with Jiang Qi in the heart of the lewd man in hatred, when he walked in front of Jiang Qi, the lewd man stretched out his hemp rod-like paws and patted Jiang Qi's shoulder and said intimidatingly: "Boy, you scared my eldest brother's sister just now, what do you say." β
Jiang Qi smiled at this pat, Jiang Qi didn't want to pay attention to the palm that was like tickling, looked at the ruffians around him with contempt, and then swept the place on his body that had been slapped by a lewd man, and scolded in his heart: "I didn't expect to encounter a robbery just when I went out for the first time, how can my luck be so good."
In the rib cage, Jiang Qi looked around with a smile and looked around at the scarred face and sympathetic eyes that had turned over and rode on his mount, and finally fell on the child who didn't look like a girl at all.
Seeing that she had been squatting on the ground and bowing her head in fear of holding the corners of her clothes since these ruffians came, Jiang Qi knew what was going on without asking, but although she guessed one or two, Jiang Qi still went through the motions and asked, "Is that really your young lady?" β
"What's the matter with your mother, the boy is too damn unkind." The lewd man looked at the idle love in front of him, and Jiang Qi, who looked unbelieving, became angry in his heart. As Jiang Qi asked, he slapped him, and the lewd man had already decided in his heart that he was going to slap Jiang Qi's handsome face today.
Seeing this sudden change, the people in the field who secretly looked around were a little unbearable to watch the young Jiang Qi being beaten, and the soft-hearted ones even closed their eyes sympathetically, and for a while, only a few ruffians in the field were still laughing insolently.
However, just when the slap was about to meet Jiang Qi's handsome face, what came was not the crisp sound of Jiang Qi's face and the slap kissing, but a scream like killing a pig, and the situation took a turn for the worse in a blink of an eye.
As the voice sounded, the passer-by who opened his eyes saw the scene in front of him strangely, the obscene man who was originally showing off his martial arts was already white, and at the same time, beads of sweat were oozing from his forehead.
Of course, the ugly sound came from his big grinning mouth, and the handsome young man, who was originally weaker, was now holding the soft little arm of the lewd man with his slender left hand.
When the lewd man knelt on the ground in pain in the scream, until he was about to faint, Jiang Qi let go of him disapprehantly.
was put away by Jiang Qi, and the lewd man instinctively held his wrist as soft as mud and continued to howl, the sound was as heart-rending as just now.
It turned out that just now, when his arm was about to hit Jiang Qi, Jiang Qi directly covered his wrist with a split second and crushed it at the same time.
In the face of the lewd man's howl, although Jiang Qi had abolished one of his hands, he did not intend to let him go like this.
In the observation of the little girl just now, Jiang Qi has come to a conclusion that these splashes in front of him are a group of crazy people who use the lives of children to achieve the purpose of blackmail, and it is definitely not the first time to see their cooperation.
Thinking of just now, Jiang Qi sighed that he had met himself today, and it would definitely be a tragedy if he was someone else.
Thinking of this, Jiang Qi made up his mind to eradicate this tumor, and before the howling lewd man could change his strength, Jiang Qi grabbed his neck like a hemp rod and gently lifted it up.
When it was mentioned that he was at the same height as his shoulders, Jiang Qi exerted a little force, and in the blink of an eye, the lewd man had difficulty breathing, his face turned purple, his eyes rolled white, and his tongue stretched out. At this moment, the lewd man is like an ant in Jiang Qi's hands, and he may lose his life at any time.
However, although Jiang Qi can kill lewd men like ants, Jiang Qi does not want to kill. Looking at the lewd man's outstretched tongue, Jiang Qi's eyes flashed with a cold light, and then he stomped his foot slightly, and a white light immediately flew out of his boots.
As soon as the white light came out, Jiang Qi reached out with his right hand and grabbed it, and it turned out that the white light flying out was the dagger hidden in his boots. As soon as the dagger came out, a cold light flashed, and a small lump of flesh fell into the mortal dust with blood, and at the same time, the dead dog-like lewd man was also thrown to the ground by Jiang Qi.
With the release of the lewd man, Jiang Qi looked at the dagger that was not glued with blood, and raised his ankle and the dagger to the sheath, and then Jiang Qi straightened his clothes and said lightly: "No one can insult my grandmother, and if you want a tongue today, it will be interested." β
Although Jiang Qi's understatement was said easily, when he heard it in the ears of others, it buzzed like a thunderbolt from the Nine Heavens. There is no doubt that Jiang Qi's hand suppressed the people present.
These ruffians have seen such bloody methods, and they usually bully and bully the common people, although they will use their swords when grabbing territory, but they have never seen such a decisive and ruthless person.
Looking at the lewd man who had fainted, a frightened man stepped forward to check it, and then shouted with palpitations: "The eldest brother's hands are wasted and his tongue has been cut off"
Hearing the shout, the scar man who was a little stunned on the horse recovered from his surprise, looking at his brother who was asking about his consciousness, the scar man scolded in his heart: "Why did you encounter bad luck today, it's all because the third kid is good at collecting protection money." If you have to look at other people's tall horses, and find a beggar to blackmail people, now you don't count if you are wasted, what should I do now? β
With fear in his heart, Scar Man couldn't help but see the schadenfreude hawkers everywhere. Seeing this, the scar man frowned and said in his heart: "It seems that if you don't move this kid today, you won't be able to mix it up in the future."
Deciding in his heart, the scar man immediately raised his head and said sharply to Jiang Qi: "Boy, you hurt my sister first, and abolish my brother last, don't want to leave here alive today, brothers avenge the third childγγγγ"
Hearing the eldest brother's order, although a few hooligans were a little worried in their hearts, they had the courage to look at each other, after all, so many people didn't believe that they couldn't beat a dime of children. As the crowd sang 'No', they reached out and grabbed something that could be attacked from the stalls around.
For a while, what planks, brackets, bamboo poles, and dustpans were copied in the hands of the splasher. In the chaos, of course, some people will take the opportunity to carry the valuable items in their arms and keep them for themselves. With the chaos, the market immediately became lively.
