Prison Scourge (Part II)

After a few days of calm days, except for a little light rain, the whole Fengming County was as peaceful as ever.

Xu Chang'an meditates and cultivates every day in addition to drinking, and Li Daoyi also actively meditates as soon as he watched Xu Chang'an practice. But after two or three days, he gave up.

Chu Liang looked at the few sentences written by Xu Chang'an, and hid in the room all day long. Xu Changan would occasionally talk to him about some battle examples, of course, these battle examples all came from the Battle of Yuezhou, when Uncle Shi taught him, he just let him memorize by rote and did not explain it. still went to Yuezhou, Jiang Ming analyzed some with him, Zhao Jin told him something, and then he knew that the obscure things that Uncle Shi asked him to memorize were the art of war!

Now, he wrote two sentences at random, which was enough for Chu Liang to ponder for a long time. However, he knew relatively few examples of battles, and the station of Yuezhou was understated by him, and he finished it in a few words. Chu Liang still wanted to ask, but Xu Changan could only stare at him, scaring Chu Liang so much that he didn't dare to speak.

Li Daoyi couldn't find Xu Chang'an, and he couldn't find Chu Liang, so he could only go to Xiaobai.

He and Lao Bai mingled in the gambling den and came back at dawn every day. However, Xiaobai was elated when he came back every day, while Li Daoyi was crying with a sad face. Breaking his fingers, he carefully counted a few copper plates and a few coins of silver. And Xiaobai quietly enjoyed Chu Liang's technique, helped it take a bath, squinted his eyes, and prepared to sleep peacefully for a day, and then go to kill the Quartet at night.

"Hey!"

Li Dao slapped the table one by one, scared Xiaobai into a spirit, and the water droplets splashed everywhere, making Chu Liang all over his body, fortunately he didn't stretch out his claws, otherwise Chu Liang's unwarranted disaster would have been a bit big.

"Little white brother, are you also their nursery?"

He stared at Xiaobai and asked seriously.

At this moment, Xu Changan pushed the door in and just happened to hear it, so he asked, "What nursery?"

Li Daoyi looked at Xiaobai, and then said to Li Daoyi: "You don't know, but all gambling games have childcare." In a game of ten people, sitting around a table, six or seven are childcare. In other words, the six or seven people are in a gang, and they pretend to win the dealer's money all the time, and trick people into gambling. As long as ten people are full, it seems that everyone else except the dealer loses, but in fact, it is not. Only those four or five people lost, and the others waited for the game to disperse, and then went to divide the money with the dealer. ”

As he spoke, Xiaobai stood in the basin, his eyes rolling.

"I went for two days and lost both days, and the more I thought about it, the more wrong it became. ”

Xu Changan looked at him a little strangely, and said, "Since you know, then you still go to gamble." ”

When Li Dao heard this, he muttered and said, "I think Xiaobai can win, why can't I?"

Xu Changan looked at him, a little speechless.

Xiaobai also looked at him and shouted.

Li Dao sighed, shook his head, returned to the room alone, and fell asleep with his head down.

Xiaobai innocently shouted at Xu Changan twice, Xu Changan had a smile in his eyes, touched his head and said with a little cunning: "Don't let him know!"

Xiaobai grinned happily when he heard this.

......

Xun Fa still went to the county government every day, and after dealing with things, he hurried home to accompany his wife He Die.

As soon as his monthly allowance came out, most of it was given to the elders. The part given to the elder family is used to maintain daily life, as well as the cost of private school for the grandson of the elder family.

In the past, when he was not busy with official business, Xun Fa would occasionally teach the child a few words.

But now his wife is suffering from a strange disease, not to mention that she is not in good spirits these days, and she has begun to dislike cooked food and like to eat raw and cold food. He Die didn't dare to tell Xun Fa, in fact, every time she saw fresh meat, her saliva was about to flow out. But if it's done and cooked, she will be nauseous when she sees it.

Not only that, sometimes she can't control her temper, and even wants to do something to her favorite husband and her favorite husband. The elders of the family know all this, but Xun Fa doesn't know. Xun Fa just saw that his wife had been pale recently, had no energy, and couldn't eat anything. And occasionally his face is very ugly, as if he is suffering from unspeakable pain.

This pain is indeed indescribable, because it is an impulse, a bloodthirsty and murderous impulse.

If it weren't for this woman's determination, I'm afraid something would have happened a long time ago.

Xun Fa works every day, goes out early and returns late, so he naturally knows very little. But the old man of the family saw all this, and when he didn't come to Fengming County, he would quietly send some raw and cold food to his wife. But after coming to Fengming County, when the old man was away, his wife's illness became more and more serious, and in the end, he had no choice but to quietly send some fresh livestock blood to his wife. On two occasions, he even saw his wife's eyes red, like a giant beast.

But in the past few days, Madame has gotten better.

The porcelain vase given by the strange man was filled with some powder, as long as the powder was poured into the meal, the lady was not so resistant, and the most gratifying thing was that on the first day, the lady would take advantage of the master's absence to ask for blood food, but on the second day, she no longer wanted it; what was even more gratifying was that on the third day, the lady was almost the same as a normal person, but her body was slightly weaker.

He felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Because the little porcelain vase was empty, there was no medicine, and the mysterious man was going to give himself an answer today.

......

Late autumn, night, more and more deep.

Just after the ugly hour, the old man walked out of the house like a thief and walked towards the designated place.

The wind was a little cold, and he bent his waist and wrapped his clothes tightly

neck.

When I arrived at the place, it was still a corner, and one person stood on one side of the wall, and because there was a corner, no one could see anyone. Not to mention that the moon hasn't come out recently, even when the moon is clear, you can't see each other, you can only hear the sound.

"How's it going, you should be able to see the effect!" the voice was a little muffled.

The old man pondered for a while, and finally sighed leisurely, he did not answer the question. Since others have the confidence to take out this medicine, it will naturally be useful.

"I just want to know, what will happen to the master after cooperating with you to make these false evidences?

The man around the corner laughed twice when he heard the voice.

"You are really weird, your grandson is in our hands, and you are not worried at all, but you are still worried about your master. If your wife doesn't have that strange disease, I'm afraid that your grandson alone won't be able to threaten you. ”

The old man snorted coldly.

"When I was holding my little grandson on the side of the road, it was freezing cold, I thought we were going to die, it was my wife and my lord who saved me and my grandson. If it weren't for them, where would I be now? ”

"You're an old bone, you think these things are more important than life, you can figure it out. But your little grandson is not very old now, and he still has a few days to live!" came a chuckle around the corner.

"I am satisfied to be able to live such a stable and prosperous life for so long, and I often tell him that if I owe someone a bucket of rice, I must pay more, and if I owe someone a life, it is not enough to pay for my life!"

"Although I am illiterate and illiterate, my little grandson came back from the private school and taught me some words, but he did not teach me some of his name or my own name, but taught me four words. Old man, I couldn't read and write all my life, but I didn't expect to learn four of the best. ”

The man was silent for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking or thinking about how to deal with this old man, so as to deal with Xun Fa.

But all this doesn't matter to the old man. As long as the lord and the lady can be together safely, it doesn't matter.

"What four words did you teach?" the man guessed, but he couldn't help but ask.

"Thanksgiving!" said these four words with a smile and full of energy.

Suddenly, the two sides fell silent, only the wind whistling towards their faces.

"If your lord is willing to bow his head, there is no fear for his life. Your master has nothing to do with us, he just makes a deal with people, and we will come to do this. ”

When the man had finished speaking, he took a step forward and stepped out.

The old eyes of the family compete for the boss, but they can only see a pair of bright eyes, and they can't see anything.

"I'm wearing a black robe. Unexpectedly, the man explained.

"I'll give you a quarter of an hour now to think about it, either cooperate with us, and your wife will be fine, or you won't cooperate, and we can't control if you tell your master about this, and your little grandson will be sent back. However, your wife is not better. ”

The old man was panting, and he seemed to be extremely tired.

If he had been a few dozen years younger, he would have knocked this man down and given it to his master, but now he couldn't, he could only dress rough and show anger.

Eventually, he lowered his head.

"Okay, I promise you!"

When the man heard the elder's answer, he took out a porcelain vase from his bosom again and handed it to the elder. "That's still three days, and if what you do satisfies us in these three days, we'll cure your wife. ”

With that, he vanished, leaving only an old man standing in the wind with a porcelain vase.

......

Genius bright, Xun Fa got up and ate breakfast, and then rushed to the county office.

Xun Fa always felt that the old family was weird these days, and he was always absent-minded in doing things, either breaking the plate, or standing in a daze. Even when sweeping the floor, I will fall on my head.

"The old housekeeper, are you encountering any difficulties?" asked Xun Fa with a little concern.

An ugly smile appeared on the old man's face, and he shook his head and said, "No...... It's okay!"

"If it's a matter of money, just tell me, and I'll try to figure it out. By the way, I haven't seen Xiao Hao in the past few days. ”

When the elder heard this, a trace of nervousness appeared on his face, and he stammered a little and said, "The most ...... Recently, he was detained by Mr. Private School, and ...... late Come back late in the evening, what you ...... will not be seen. ”

When Xun Fa heard this, he didn't think much about it. The old family saw that it had been covered up, and he was relieved.

"This kid used to study hard and worked hard, but he was actually punished and detained! I just came to this Fengming County, I have to deal with a lot of things, and after a while, I won't be so busy, I'll help him make up for the class!"

When the old man heard this, tears were about to overflow in his eyes, and he said with a smile: "Xiao Hao has always liked what the master said, and he told me that what the master said is much more advanced than what Mr. Private School said!"

When Xun Fa heard this, he was extremely happy, but he still said it.

"There is no distinction between high and low knowledge, if he is interested in my things, and has confidence and qualifications, maybe there will be one more great sage in the future!"

Hearing this, the old family wanted to laugh, but he couldn't, and the smile on his face was more ugly than crying.

"Okay, I'm going to the county office, you can take care of it at home, and then turned around and walked towards the gate. ”

Seeing that Xun Fa was about to step out of the door, the old man's voice was a little choked, and he suddenly shouted: "Master!"

Xun Fa turned around abruptly and looked at the old man strangely.

The old man's lips twitched

In the end, only four words were spoken: "Have a nice trip." After saying that, he smiled reluctantly.

Xun Fa smiled faintly, turned around and said, "It's not a long journey, what do you say has a smooth journey." ”

After finishing speaking, he walked out of the house and walked towards the county office.

......

When Xun Fa arrived at the county office, he looked at some decrees, and at the same time looked at the map of Fengming County.

As a county guard, he not only has to protect the people of Fengming County, but also has to find a way to make them rich, this is what the county guard should do, this is how to manage a place.

How to use the land and get some policies that are beneficial to the people is what a qualified county keeper should do.

Fengming County has a good climate, although the land is not fertile, but there is a lot of grain output, but it is poor. He analyzed it carefully, because of the road. In a good year, the grain could not be transported, so the people could only store up the surplus grain; but when the drought and flood disaster came, and in the famine year, most of the grain hoarded in the good year was stolen by rats, and most of the grain left behind was moldy and could not be eaten. It is precisely because of the impassability of the road that the people cannot move food.

If the roads are clear, the grain will be sold in good years, and it will be saved in silver, and in the year of famine, it will be possible to buy grain from other places and bring it in, so that the people will have no worries about food and clothing.

Xun Fa looked at the map and was about to make up his mind to build the road, when a group of people directly broke into the county office.

Xun Fa looked up and found that it was the county lieutenant (equivalent to the current county public security chief).

I saw that the county lieutenant rushed in directly with a few people, and some people were holding shackles and locked Xun Fa directly.

Although the incident came suddenly, Xun Fa did not panic, but asked: "Lord County Lieutenant, I don't know what happened to my Xun?"

The county lieutenant was full of stubble on his face, and he was like a wild boar in a cage wearing an official uniform.

"You've made a big mistake, you continue to pretend, and you'll know later!"

Xun Fa glanced at him and didn't say much. This county lieutenant was a scoundrel, and he fought so hard, but he didn't know why he was in office. It's okay to be an official, but the position of county lieutenant is to protect the peace of the people, but he is good, and he takes his money to gamble and drink every day. As soon as Xun Fa took office, he punished the county lieutenant with a small punishment, but he didn't expect the county lieutenant to arrest him today.

However, Xun Fa had a clear conscience, so he followed the county lieutenant to the front of the lobby with his head held high.

When he arrived, he saw that there was already a seat in the lobby.

It's just that to his surprise, it was actually the county keeper of Dingba Province who came in person.

Xun Fa frowned, this Hou Bohou is the county guard of Dingbo Mansion, when Hou Bohou's son bullied men and women in Xun Fa's location, Xun Fa insisted on resisting his pressure, and locked up his eldest son Hou Yuhua for more than half a month, and scolded him for fifty.

Because of this, although Xun Fa was supported by the people, it was useless, and it didn't take long for Hou Bohou to transfer to this Fengming County. Xun Fa originally thought that the matter had come to this, but when he looked at it today, it was obvious that this county guard of Dingbo Mansion was a little "broad-minded".

Xun Fa stood under the hall with his head held high, looking at Hou Bohou. He asked himself with a clear conscience, and everything he did was for the sake of the people.

"Xun Fa! Don't kneel down when you see this official!"

Hou Bohou was shocked and shouted loudly, and immediately all the surrounding officials knocked on their sticks and shouted in unison: "Wei ...... Wu ......!"

This voice was a little loud, which made Xun Fa a little dizzy.

"Although you are the county guard, but you and I are both officials, why should I kneel?"

When Hou Bohou heard this, he immediately laughed loudly: "Xun Fa, if you are a sinner, should you kneel!" When Xun Fa heard this, his pupils shrank, and he waved the corner of his clothes and said: "If I am a sinner, I should naturally kneel!"

"Xun Fa, you colluded with pirates and accepted bribes, do you admit it?"

Hou Bohou was shocked again and said loudly.

Xun Fa snorted coldly and stood in place without fear.

"What evidence is there?"

How could he not know at this time that this Lord Hou Bohou was here for his son, but he was not afraid of shadows, so why was he afraid of Xun Fa!

"Of course there is proof!"

"Fengming County has always been poor, but the furniture in your house is all mahogany!" Hou Bohou said loudly with confidence.

"This is left by the previous county guards!"

Hearing this, Hou Bohou smiled proudly in his heart. It seems that there is nothing wrong with working with that group, everything is under control.

"Okay! In order to convince you today, the first two county guards have been summoned by me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two people came in.

The result of the question is naturally that Fengming County has always been poor, where is there mahogany and so on.

Xun Fa looked at the two of them in disappointment, and the two even swore to the sky and hurriedly cleared themselves.

Seeing this, Hou Bohou snorted coldly while the iron was hot, and said loudly: "Heirloom!"

As soon as the words fell, a familiar face came into view!

5,000 words sent.
