Chapter 36: Establishing Rules
"Brother forgive sins!"
"The villain just wants to get some food, and he has no intention of harming the old man's life."
"That old man is angry and angry, how can he blame the villain?"
"The villain knows that his brother cherishes those people, and he will pay his family some money back, and he will never let his brother's reputation be damaged."
In the Juyi Hall, Li Gui and other leaders sat upright, and in the hall below, there was a row of guards standing on both sides, and a man in the middle was tied up with five flowers, pressed to the ground, and explained with a hippie smile.
After Ghost Li erected the banner of Tianxingdao, he set rules for the thieves in the cottage, only the gentry were allowed to be liquidated, and the people were not allowed to be oppressed.
But how can a thief be subject to such restraint?
Fortunately, at first, Li Ghost liquidated a number of gentry, had plenty of money, and gave a lot of rewards to all the subordinates who participated in the operation, and after having money in their hands, those people in the village couldn't look down on the three melons and two dates in the poor ghost's pocket.
But the money in the hands of the thieves comes and goes faster, but there are many people who make the money clean in the moonlight.
Or throw it in the casino, or throw it on women, but not many of them are really used at home.
Even if Ghost Li helps them become relatives, there are still a lot of people who can't get back the heart that they have indulged in.
What if you don't have money?
Of course, continue to use the means of bandits.
The gentry of the surrounding villages and towns have moved their homes to the county seat, and those who did not have time to escape were all exterminated by Li Gui, and now in the entire Yishui County, there is not a single rich peasant in the villages and towns below.
As a result, some ordinary farmers in the surrounding area were unlucky, and they were harassed by bandits every once in a while.
How many people are doing these things in secret, Ghost Li doesn't know, but today this unlucky guy was caught by Ghost Li, so he was set up as a typical example.
He didn't know that his outcome was already predestined, and he was still there salivating and chattering.
In the eyes of the bandits, how big of a deal can this be?
It's just a bad old man, and it's not an important person.
Even those gentry and big families, Brother Li Ghost didn't blink an eye when he killed him, how could he care about the life of a small person?
Besides, he was one of the first people to follow Brother Li in the cottage, and he was still a member of the personal guard, and he was definitely a confidant of Brother Li Ghost.
As long as he honestly admits his mistake and lets Brother Li Ghost beat him in public, this matter will pass.
The executioners are all their own brothers, what are you afraid of?
In fact, there are many people who have the same opinion as this person, and even several village owners next to them have this opinion, and they have interceded.
"Brother, this guy doesn't listen to orders, it's really hateful, this time I have to beat him dozens of boards, and let everyone else have a long memory!"
"What Shiro said is very true, but this guy also has a small merit, you might as well let him atone for his sins, and let him be the first to charge in the next battle."
"I have let people see the body of the old man, there are no scars on the body, this guy really did not do anything, it was purely the old man's life. Brother, for the sake of his honest confession, he might as well confess and be lenient, punish him with a small punishment and give him another chance. ”
Li Ghost leaned on the armrest of the seat, supported his cheek with his left hand, stepped on the chair with his right foot, frowned, and waved his hand to interrupt the intercession of several people.
"It's just an old man dead, how could a certain family ever care?"
"Kill and kill, what can you do?"
"How can a thief not kill someone?"
The man who was tied in the hall was in high spirits, and cried out:
"What my brother said is very true!"
"We're all bandits, how can we not kill people?"
"Brother, untie the rope on the villain's body, let the villain respect my brother for a few cups!"
"Hehe......" Li Gui smiled coldly, put down his feet, leaned forward, and glared, "You still want to drink?" ”
"Lin Xiaoer, let me ask you, have you ever remembered the rules of a certain family?"
Seeing that the owner of Dazhai was angry, Lin Xiaoer's face changed, and he hurriedly fell to the ground and answered honestly.
"Of course the villain remembers."
"Since you remember, then you should know that a certain family once said that if you want to rob, you will rob those who have money, and you are not allowed to cut meat on poor ghosts!"
Lin Xiaoer was covered in a cold sweat, realizing that the situation was not good, he hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy.
"The villain knows his mistake, he will never dare to commit it next time, and ask my brother to forgive him!"
"Huh, next time?" Ghost Li stood up, dragged the long-handled plate axe on the side of the chair, and walked down slowly, the blade of the axe made of stainless steel slashed across the ground, letting out a piercing scream, which made Lin Xiaoer's liver even more broken.
"Do you want to have a next time?"
Ghost Li raised the board axe with one hand, pointed at Lin Xiaoer and shouted angrily:
"If you have a certain family, it is the rule!"
"If you don't follow the rules, you don't listen to a certain family!"
"What are you ......" Li Gui poked the end of the steel-cast axe handle in front of Lin Xiaoer, the tip of the axe went half a foot into the ground, and the gravel splashed everywhere, "Look down on a certain family!" ”
"Huh?" Lin Xiaoer was frightened, hurriedly shook his head, and explained: "Brother, don't misunderstand!" Even if you give the villain ten guts, you don't dare to look down on your brother! ”
"Why doesn't Naer listen to a certain family?"
"How dare the villain not listen to his brother?"
"Why isn't Naer behaving by the rules?"
"Villain...... The villain ......" Lin Xiaoer was speechless for a while, not knowing how to say it.
Is this well-behaved bandit still called a bandit?
Isn't the purpose of being a bandit just to be unruly?
But how dare he say that?
Isn't that a clear search for death?
After a while, seeing that Ghost Li raised the plate axe again, Lin Xiaoer's mind flashed at the moment of life and death, and he hurriedly expressed his loyalty.
"Brother, the villain is stupid and can't understand, but the villain's loyalty to his brother can be seen every day, and he will never dare to have half a heart!"
"What my brother said in the future, the villain must firmly remember it, resolutely abide by it, and never discount it at all!"
"What my brother asks the villain to do, the villain will do it, even if the villain is allowed to die, the villain is absolutely willing!"
After shouting loudly, Lin Xiaoer lay on the ground, waiting for the judgment of Ghost Li on his head in fear, for fear that the sharp axe would be cut on his neck in the next moment, but he only heard Ghost Li's voice coming from his head, and he was indistinguishable from joy and anger.
"Hey! That's a nice thing to say! Are you willing to let you die? ”
It sounded like Brother Li's attitude had loosened, Lin Xiaoer was overjoyed, and hurriedly shouted:
"Yes, as long as my brother says a word, the younger brother will go up the knife mountain and go down the oil pot, and the younger brother will also go on a journey!"
As soon as he finished saying this, he only felt that his hair was grabbed by someone, and then his neck was cold, and he saw his back, and then Ghost Li's murderous voice also came into his ears.
"You don't need to go to Dao Mountain, and you don't need to go to the oil pot, as long as you have a human head to warn the cottage, let them know what the rules are!"
Ghost Li cut off Lin Xiaoer's head with an axe, carried it in his hand, looked around and around, and saw that everyone had changed color, and they all bowed their heads, not daring to look at him.
Ghost Li shook his hand, threw the head to Huang Shilang, and said coldly:
"Spread the head all over the cottage and make it clear to them that they will kill people if they want to, and they will set fire if they want to, but the rules of a certain family, whoever dares to break it, will cut off someone's head!"
