Chapter 306: Grand Theft Grass Flying
In the area of Zhaotong Mansion in the southern Xinjiang of China, there is a mysterious thief in the rivers and lakes, nicknamed "flying on the grass", the art master is bold, and repeatedly opposes the local government yamen, punishes corrupt officials, governs corrupt officials, robs the rich and helps the poor, punishes the evil and promotes the good, flies the eaves and walks the wall, steals the peerless skills, shoots invisibly, never misses his hand, the gangsters grit their teeth at him, hate him to the bone, but the poor people love him very much. However, no matter who he was, I had never seen what he looked like, he was tall, short, fat and thin, I don't know.
The Miao people live in the Miaoling cottage within the jurisdiction of Zhaotong Prefecture, which is a frontier of its own. Since ancient times, Miao people, regardless of men and women, young and old, have been accustomed to raising Gu insects and making good use of Gu poison to harm people. Miao Miao, the king of Miaojiang, is a master of Gu, this guy, he was ambitious when he was a child, his mind was not right, and when he grew up, he was even more restless and self-conscious, he had barbaric blood flowing in his body, and he was not willing to be subordinate to others at all, so under the bewitchment and bewitchment of the two goblins of Hu Mei and Hu Ling'er, he soon lost himself, lost his morality, instigated the clansmen to revolt, and then recruited troops and horses, and brazenly launched an armed rebellion。
After the rebels of Miaojiang successively assassinated the county commanders of several counties under the jurisdiction of Zhaotong Prefecture appointed by the imperial court, they were very arrogant, burning, killing and looting, and doing all kinds of evil, and many innocent Han people were killed.
The news spread to the city of Zhaotong Mansion, and there were a group of rich and noble families with heads and faces in the place, and the heads of the houses had sad faces one by one, looking for the prefect Liu Agile in groups, chattering and making noise behind him, I don't know what they are talking about?
"Lord Prefect, I heard that there is a small group of rebels in Miaojiang, which has quietly infiltrated our Zhaotong City, and the imperial court to suppress the rebellion in Miaojiang, the general Wei Guohua, led 400,000 officers and soldiers, and has surrounded our Zhaotong City, claiming that it is to arrest the rebels, the gods fight, and mortals suffer, how is this good?"
"That is, Lord Prefect, Miaojiang armed rebellion, and the imperial court sent Wang Shi to encircle and suppress it, this incident made the whole city tense and panicked. My lord, you should find a way to catch the thief! If you want someone, we will send people, we will ask for money, we will pay for it, and we must ensure the safety of all of us!"
"Everyone, don't panic, listen to me, our officials and people work together to raise funds to recruit troops to quell the rebellion and ensure everyone's peace!"
"Yes!"
Prefect Liu Agile sneered secretly in his heart.
............
On this day, the thief "Flying on the Grass" wanted to find the rebels, do the right thing for the heavens, and eliminate harm for the people, he transformed into a lean young man who looked weak on the surface and went shopping, and he found that there was a middle-aged man who was always dangling in front of him, and that man had a face full of flesh, his eyes were fierce, and he was carrying a heavy package. "Flying on the grass" deliberately touched the package, knowing that it contained hard goods of gold and silver treasures, but he seriously suspected that this person, maybe plainclothes from the government, designed to trap him, so he did not dare to do it. However, the man robbed him vigorously, and hit him with a package, which made him very annoyed, and after a closer look, he found that this man was dressed as a foreigner, so he made up his mind: "Don't take him, he still thinks that the people here don't know the silver!"
"Flying on the grass" quickly flashed into a cloth shop, and when he came out, he had the same wrapping in his hand as the man's wrap. As if he was flying, he swept past a stall selling hammers, and in an instant, he was carrying the same package as the man. At this moment, there happened to be a peache-selling vendor who walked past the man, "flying on the grass" and kicking the pebbles on the ground, hitting the ankle of the peache-selling vendor, and the peache-selling vendor fell to the ground with a "sigh", the peach dan turned over the buckle, and the peaches rolled all over the street.
Pedestrians snatched peaches away, and the man was squeezed to the ground. "Flying on the Grass" took advantage of the chaos to trip the man, and then pressed on him again. The two men rolled together, and the contents of the package clanged.
"Flying on the grass" jumped up before the carp, quickly got into the bustling crowd, dodged and jumped into a small alley. Behind him, he heard the man shouting: "Hey, it's strange, why has the silver in my package been turned into a hammer?"
"Flying on the grass" was pursing his lips and snickering, when suddenly, he saw two big men with knives standing on the alley, staring at him.
"Oh, no, I'm being targeted!" "Flying on the grass" turned and ran back, and suddenly saw that the alley was also blocked by two knife-wielding men. "Flying on the grass" raised his head and found that there were dozens of knife-wielding people standing on the roofs on both sides.
The middle-aged man strode up to him, and said with a cruel smile: "Fly on the grass, your means of theft are really worthy of the name, let's make a deal!"
"Flying on the grass" realized that he had fallen into someone else's trap. He was used to being a loner, and he didn't want to have anything to do with strangers at all.
"Friend, I'm sorry, return your things!" "Flying on the grass" said as he threw the package back to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man took the package and said threateningly: "Fly on the grass, you don't want to make a deal, you have now become a turtle in the urn, you can't escape with wings, and you are dirty, we will take you down and send you to the prefect's yamen in Zhaotong to dispose of it." Think about it, with your reputation of flying on the grass, you have repeatedly opposed the government, what kind of result will it be?"
"Don't say it, I'll admit it!" "Flying on the grass" sighed, pulled his head down, and asked helplessly: "Say, what do you want to make a deal with me?"
"Those who know the times are Junjie, it's really happy, flying on the grass, you are very smart, it's like this......"
"Flying on the grass" never expected that the middle-aged man in front of him would actually ask him to steal something from Liu Agile in the Zhao Notification Mansion. According to this middle-aged man, Liu Agile of the Zhaofu Mansion is a big corrupt official, and he has a treasure map hidden in his personal belly pocket, if he can steal this picture, the dog corrupt official Liu Agile hides the huge wealth looted everywhere, but it is a boiled duck, waiting for them to eat. Those treasures were worth at least hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. The middle-aged man was very generous and promised that once the treasure was in hand, he would add five to the "Flying on the Grass" two-one. However, the man warned with a straight face: "Fly on the grass, the treasure map is in your hand, you can't peek at it, you must bring it back with your belly pocket and hand it over to me, do you hear clearly?"
"Hear me clearly!"
"Okay, fly on the grass, you can go, I wish you success!"
"Thanks!
That night, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and at the time of the third watch, "Flying on the Grass" climbed the big elm tree in front of the Zhao Notification Mansion to watch, and saw that the gate of the Mansion was closed, and there was a team of officials patrolling in front of the house and behind the house. After a while, the doorman opened the door to change the guard, and as soon as he came out, he slipped down the tree, bent and rolled on the spot, and rolled smaller and smaller, and rushed into the door like a mouse from the feet of the changing guard. Then, he rolled along the courtyard wall and the shadows of the house, until he rolled under the pillar of the bedroom window of the prefect Liu Agile, and when he saw the time for the patrol officer to leave, he climbed the pillar with his feet and silently climbed into the shadow of the eaves.
"Flying on the grass" is a master of art, he hooks the eaves and rafters, hangs to look at the window, and vaguely sees a fat body and a petite woman sleeping soundly on the bed. He recognized that the fat one was the prefect Liu Agile. So, he swung into the window, slipped silently to the side of the bed, and saw a belly pocket pressed under the pillow of the prefect Liu Agile. The treasure map is there! He pinched the corner of his belly pocket and tried to pull it out, but he couldn't pull it because he was crushed by the head of the prefect Liu Agile.
The extremely smart "flying on the grass", while learning the "buzzing" mosquito call, he plucked his hair and poked at the face of the prefect Liu Agile.
The prefect Liu Agile was woken up, raised his hand and slapped his face, and slapped his palm a few times in front of his face and behind his head, and raised his head slightly.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, "Flying on the Grass" quickly pulled out his belly pocket, touched it into his belly pocket, and sure enough, there was something inside.
"Flying on the grass" was ecstatic, he stopped learning mosquito calling, and after a while, the prefect Liu Agile began to snort again.
"Flying on the grass" climbed up to the window and was about to jump off, when he suddenly saw two patrolling officials turn around and sit on the ground in front of the window to rest. He had no choice but to retreat back into the house.
One of the officials said: "Brother Hou, thieves like to haunt during this time, according to the younger brother, the two of us will simply stay in front of the window of the prefect Lord Liu until dawn." ”
"Great, that's it!"
"Flying on the grass" thought to himself: "Damn, these two servants, this is to accompany the prefect Liu Agile until dawn, and he can't get out, but what should I do?" He suddenly thought again: "That middle-aged man, the god is secret, he won't let me see the treasure map, obviously there is a intention to swallow it alone, why don't I take advantage of this time to take a look at the map and remember the location of the treasure." ”
The darkness before dawn is far away, the first ray of morning light comes in from the window, "Flying on the Grass" can't wait to open the belly pocket, take a look, but was shocked by the Dongcheng in front of him and almost screamed, where is the treasure map, it is clearly the "Danshu Iron Coupon"!
Although "Flying on the Grass" is a thief in the rivers and lakes, robbing the rich and helping the poor, and thieves also have a way, he knows that this "Danshu Iron Coupon" is a letter of exoneration given by the emperor to meritorious officials, with it, even if he commits a heinous crime, he can save his head. He still remembered that when the prefect Liu Agile first came to Zhaotong more than a year ago to take office, he once showed this thing to the people, and also used it to call a large number of local tyrants and inferior gentry to follow him, I don't know what to do?
"Flying on the grass" thought to himself: That middle-aged man, his origin is unknown, what does he want the "Danshu Iron Coupon" for? Yes, there must be his ulterior motives, if he didn't see it, he really had to steal it from him, maybe he would be killed immediately. Then again, even if he can escape the poisonous hands of that middle-aged man, if he steals the "Danshu Iron Coupon" given by the emperor to local officials to save his life, he will be reported to the imperial court and wanted by the whole country, making himself like a rat crossing the street, everyone shouts and beats, and there is nowhere to hide. In the final analysis, the "Danshu Iron Coupon" is a very hot potato, and you must not take it!
"Flying on the grass" put the "Danshu Iron Coupon" back into the belly pocket, took the opportunity of the prefect Liu Agile to turn over and turn his head, gently stuffed the belly pocket back under the pillow, and listened to the sound of no talking outside the window, presumably the two officials had withdrawn, the opportunity was rare, he quickly drilled out of the window, quickly climbed onto the roof like a monkey, untied the noose around his waist, threw the noose on the big locust tree outside the prefect's courtyard wall, climbed the lasso, and swung out of the mansion.
After landing, as soon as the "Flying on the Grass" breathed a sigh of relief, he was tied up and blindfolded by a group of officers and soldiers, loaded onto his horse, and left quickly.
After removing the blindfold, he saw a military tent, with more than 20 officers and soldiers with knives standing on both sides, and on a tiger skin chair in the middle, there was a mighty and domineering general, this general, with a fierce face and fierce eyes, after seeing "Flying on the grass", he tried to squeeze out a little smile, and asked without anger: "Flying on the grass, has the treasure map been stolen?"
This voice is so familiar, "Flying on the Grass" took a closer look, and immediately recognized this general, isn't he the middle-aged man?
"Flying on the grass" couldn't help but tremble, where did he dare to say that he peeked at the words that he didn't dare to steal the "Danshu Iron Coupon", quickly turned his brain, and made up an excuse: "General, Liu Agile's concubine, is very turbulent, she has been lying on his body and can't ask for it, and Liu Agile's body is pressed on his belly pocket until dawn, the villain really has no way to start!"
"What?" the general brushed his face and glared angrily. "Flying on the grass" knew that he had reached the moment of life and death, and his head would definitely move, so he was calm and did not dare to blink his eyes.
The general stared at "Flying on the Grass" for a long time, and suddenly laughed and said: "Flying on the Grass, you see Liu Agile holding the concubine and debauchery until dawn, it's really a feast for the eyes." It doesn't matter, you go back tonight, and if necessary, use your knife and get the contents of your belly pocket for General Ben! After talking for a long time, the grass is flying, you may not know who General Ben is, right?"
"That's certain, the general doesn't say it, how does the villain know which general is?"
"Tell you that General Ben is ......"
"Oh my God, after a long time, it turns out that you are the mighty general Wei Guohua sent by the imperial court to suppress the rebellion in Miaojiang, the villain is clumsy, and he actually stole to Lord Wei's side, capital crime!
"Fly on the grass, those who don't know are not guilty, you are chivalrous and righteous, the world knows, what is the crime, please get up quickly!"
"Lord Xie Wei!"
"Hahaha......" At this time, in order to show his trust in "Flying on the Grass", General Wei Guohua revealed some inside information to him: Liu Agile of Zhaozhi Mansion turned out to be appointed by the emperor Tongqing (doppelganger) to Zhaotong Mansion to monitor the words and deeds of Miao Miao, the king of Miaojiang. Who would have thought that Liu Agile dared to step on two boats, he was favored by the emperor on the one hand, and secretly hooked up with Miao Miao, the king of Miaojiang, not only received a huge amount of bribes from the king of Miao Jiang and accepted the beauties of Miao Jiang, but also secretly recruited troops and horses for Miao Miao, the king of Miao Jiang, and encouraged him to rebel. The imperial court received a piece of information from Tong Qing, the captain of the Bloody Flying Eagle Operation Team to maintain world peace, and after the emperor Tong Qing (doppelganger) saw it, Long Yan was furious and sent the general Wei Guorong to get rid of Liu Agile, a traitor, but if he didn't take back the Danshu Iron Coupon first and punish Liu Agile, he would show this life-saving talisman and make the emperor lose face. Therefore, the army besieged Zhaotong City, but they did not dare to touch a single hair of Liu Agile. Of course, Liu Agile wants to hide this life-saving talisman on his body at all times. In the counterinsurgency army of the imperial court, although there is no shortage of fierce generals, there are no light masters who can jump from the house to the spine. I heard that there is a powerful thief in Zhaotong City, "flying on the grass", robbing the rich and helping the poor, doing chivalrous righteousness, coming without a trace, going without a trace, and the light work is very good, he shoulders a heavy responsibility, and is thirsty for talent, so he personally entered Zhaotong City to invite him, a godlike thief who was preached by people.
Wei Guohua told Ma Liu that he had committed a lot of crimes, and he was one of the Jiangyang thieves wanted by the imperial court, and if he could steal back the Danshu iron coupon given by the emperor in Liu Agile's hand, the emperor would not only issue a decree to pardon his sins, but also give him a celebration and reward him with a large amount of wealth, so that he could enjoy it for the rest of his life, and he would no longer have to live the life of a fugitive hiding in Tibet. But if he can't steal back the Danshu iron coupon in Liu Agile's hand, what will happen to him, a thief who has learned the secrets of the imperial court and is wanted?
"Flying on the grass" is very clear, whether it is a blessing pile or a fire pit in front of him, he can only jump in with his eyes closed, he swears: Tonight, even if he is desperate, he will also steal the Danshu iron coupon in the hand of Liu Agile, the prefect of the dog. Wei Guohua let "Fly on the Grass" have a delicious meal of wine and food, and arranged for him to sleep in a camp tent.
After the third watch at night, "Flying on the Grass" still climbed the big locust tree in front of the prefect's yamen first, and saw the lights in the lobby. "Flying on the grass" took advantage of the lax defense of the courtyard wall, directly crossed the wall, flew onto the roof of the lobby, and eavesdropped on the eaves.
Liu Agile seemed to be intimidating this group of people, shouting that they were all grasshoppers on a rope. When these people withdrew, "Flying on the Grass" recognized that there were rich merchants, gentlemen, and talents from the city, as well as craftsmen, peddlers, and porters from all walks of life. "Flying on the grass" wondered: Why did all kinds of people come to the government late at night? How could they become grasshoppers on a rope with the prefect Liu Agile? He didn't care about this, and hurriedly tracked down Liu Agile. Liu Agile scared those people away, and for some reason, he was alone, jumping in and out of various rooms, as if he was crazy. "Flying on the grass" thought: Liu Agile's actions are so strange, it is very likely that he has noticed that the imperial court has sent people to get rid of him as a traitor, and hurriedly set up a maze array, get rid of the servants who serve him, and then escape from the secret cave in a certain room.
"You can't let this villain escape, otherwise, if you can't get back the Danshu Iron Coupon, General Wei Guohua will definitely not spare me. ”
"Flying on the grass" is like a bat, leaping and jumping silently on the roof, tracking the prefect Liu Agile. Finally, Liu Agile stopped in a room, and he quickly moved away from a standing cabinet against the wall and got into the wall. He followed, and when he saw that there was a hole in the wall behind the cabinet, he crept into it.
The cave twisted and went, and from within it refracted candlelight, and a hurried whisper came out. He leaned against the cave wall and approached, and finally saw Liu Agile and his concubine Miao Jiang.
Miao Jiang's concubine was wrapped in gold and silver, Liu Agile was wiping a waist knife, and while he was wiping the knife, he said viciously: "If anyone dares to stand in my way, he will let his blood splash my knife!" As he spoke, he flicked his wrist and slashed at the candle. The candle was cut into several sections, but it still lit upright.
Miao Jiang's concubine said sarcastically: "Without the life talisman given to you by the emperor, no matter how powerful your knife is, it can't match Wei Guohua's army." Let's see if the life saver has been put away? If you lose it, you lose your head!"
Liu Agile patted his chest and said, "This thing is always close to my heart." ”
Concubine Miao Jiang asked mysteriously, "Did you really give all the family members they gave you to Miao Miao, the king of Miao Jiang?"
Liu Agile bit the root of Miao Jiang's concubine's ear, smiled, and said: " Little beauty, that's right, and I also gave Miao Jiang Wang 10,000 taels of silver, no matter what, Miao Miao is your cousin, today I went to see him, he also followed my example, and hid that here, those rich fools, just now said to take back their donations and families, opened the bow and didn't look back, really, I just quietly calculated a hexagram, very bad, so let's leave Zhaotong immediately, go to Miaoling Mountain to take refuge, it's not early, you hurry up and pick up the things you should bring, let's leave here as soon as possible。 ”
"I want to escape, I'm stunned!" "Flying on the grass" suddenly appeared, Liu Agile and Miao Jiang's concubine were caught off guard, and they were pointed by him, unable to move.
"Flying on the grass" searched out the "Danshu Iron Coupon" from Liu Agile's body, and quickly clicked on the dumb points of the two, so that Liu Agile and Miao Jiang's concubine couldn't scream, tore the clothes on Liu Agile's body, tied the two of them and knocked them out, walked out of Zhaotong City along the secret passage, quickly found General Wei Guohua, and put the "Danshu Iron Coupon" handed it over to him, and personally led the way, secretly took out the unconscious Liu Agile and Miao Jiang concubines in the secret passage, splashed them with cold water, tortured them, and got Miao Miao, the king of Miao Jiang, The rebels assembled in the north mountain in the city of Zhaotong Mansion, and the two goblins Hu Mei and Hu Ling'er were also there.
There is no place to find the iron shoes, it takes no effort to get it, there is no doubt about employing people, and there is no need for suspicious people, General Wei Guohua immediately ordered to kill the traitor Liu Agile and Miao Jiang's concubine to sacrifice the battle flag, and then led an elite army of officers and soldiers from the secret tunnel of the prefect Liu Agile to quietly touch into Zhaotong City, and the officers and soldiers of the brigade were commanded by him to attack the city, and the inside and outside should be combined, and the rebel team of Miao Miao, the king of Miao Jiang, was besieged in the North Mountain, and the encirclement and suppression were carried out in an all-round way.
