Chapter 16: Imprisonment (Collect!)

"Are you laughing at me?"

Niu Tong walked to An Quan's side, took out the dagger he carried with him and shook it, the threat in it was self-evident.

As a senior prank, Niu Tong is naturally well versed in the way of bluffing. In the past, when I encountered some backbones, I only needed to take out this dagger and make a few strokes, and it would soften.

Originally, he thought that An Quan would be no exception.

Who knows......

An Quan didn't even look at him, reached out for the teapot, and refilled his bowl with some tea.

His indifferent and breezy style made Niu Tong feel a little insulted.

"Lao Tzu is talking to you! do you hear?" Niu Tong slapped it on the table, feeling still angry. knocked over An Quan's teapot and shouted angrily: "I'll let you drink ......"

"Alas......"

An Quan sighed, and said in his heart that he couldn't drink it now.

"Boy, you're so brave!"

Niu Tong handed the dagger in his hand forward.

"What? You still dare to kill people?"

"What's the point of killing? It's not like I haven't killed you, Master Niu!"

"Really?"

"Is that fake?"

Seeing the calm smile on An Quan's face, Niu Tong suddenly felt a chill in his heart for some reason. However, in order not to lose face, he still stiffened his neck.

"Good!"

An Quan drank softly.

Niu Tong felt that his right hand holding the knife was pulled, and the dagger was handed forward.

"Puff ......"

The sound of the dagger entering the flesh came, and a touch of blood appeared on An Quan's chest.

"You...... You ......"

Niu Tong was shocked and subconsciously wanted to withdraw his right hand.

Who knows, his wrist was pinched by An Quan, and he couldn't pull his hand out even with all his strength.

After a while, Niu Tong saw that An Quan's face gradually turned pale, and blood oozed from his chest, staining his clothes red.

At this time, the smile on the corner of An Quan's mouth still did not dissipate.

Niu Tong only felt cold all over his body!

"Murdered ......"

I don't know who suddenly screamed.

Hearing this shout, Niu Tong subconsciously shuddered, and actually pulled the dagger out of An Quan's chest directly.

At this time, the blood spurted out as if it didn't want money, splashing the cow's face.

"I didn't...... No killing......"

"He was the one who took my hand...... I didn't want to kill him......"

Niu Tong waved the dagger in his hand and loudly defended himself.

"Run...... Niu Tong is going to kill again......"

Niu Tong's dagger swing frightened the people around him. Everyone thought he was crazy, and immediately panicked and scattered.

Even Niu Tong's little brothers slipped away in one go.

"I really...... It's true...... Didn't kill him......"

Niu Tong was still arguing, but no one believed him.

"Pretty Girl......

"Don't come...... The official mission is coming, and you are not allowed to continue to do evil!"

The beautiful lady held the rolling pin in her hand, protected her mother-in-law behind her, and looked at Niu Tong with disgust, fear, and disdain in her eyes......

"Wang ...... Woo ......"

The big black dog who had been kicked by him earlier also rushed over to join in the fun, barking at him.

"Niu Tong, put down the murder weapon......"

The county magistrate's catcher had already arrived, drew his saber, and surrounded the cow.

"I really didn't kill anyone, why don't you believe me......"

Niu Tong brandished a dagger, looking a little restless.

"Bang ......"

A clever little catcher quickly turned behind him, and a brick was knocked down by Niu Tong. The crowd rushed up, locked him up, and brought him back to the yamen.

When Niu Tong woke up, he found that he had knelt on top of the court.

"Smack......

The county commander Ding Wenshan was shocked and said, "People are guilty of the same thing, let me ask you." Why do you kill people in the streets?"

"Your Excellency...... I really didn't kill anyone......"

Niu Tong cried out in his mouth for wrongdoing.

"Dare to quibble!"

Ding Xian Ling glared angrily, and shouted in his mouth: "The human and material evidence is there, and everyone in the bazaar has also seen it with their own eyes, it was you who stabbed An Gongzi to death with a dagger." Quickly recruit from the truth, and avoid the pain of flesh and skin......"

"My lord, I really didn't kill him! I took out my dagger just to scare him. It was he who suddenly grabbed my hand and stabbed the dagger into it himself......"

"Stubborn!"

Ding Xian Ling shouted angrily and said: "Gongzi An is already dead, you still want to wronged him? Could it be that Gongzi An will use his life to frame you?"

I think you're treating this county like a three-year-old child!"

"Someone's coming...... Call me!"

As soon as the order of Ding County was given, a servant stepped forward and pressed Niu Tong to the ground.

After removing his pants, two men stepped forward with water and fire sticks in their hands.

"Smack......

This stick went down, and Niu Tong couldn't help but howl miserably.

"Your Excellency...... Adult ......"

"I was wronged......"

"Maniac! Then hit ......"

Hearing this, the two executioners exerted their strength.

In the public court, Niu Tong's screams were endless.

The black butt had been beaten and the flesh was open, and blood seeped all over the ground.

"Your Excellency...... I'm ...... is wronged......"

Niu Tong's breath gradually weakened, but he still argued in his mouth.

"This official has been adjudicating a case for many years, and he has never seen such a hard-mouthed person! Do you think that if you bite to death and don't admit it, this official can't convict you?"

Ding Xianling's angry beard trembled, and he ordered: "Someone come! Put him in prison and behead him on a certain day!"

Seeing that his breath became a little weak, Ding Xian Ling knew that he could not continue to torture. But it's okay, the human and material evidence is there, even if there is no confession from Niu Tong, it can still be convicted.

After Ding County's order was completed, a servant stepped forward and dragged Niu Tong and sent him to the cell.

......

"Cell boss, I've sent someone to you!"

The two officials carried the oxen to the cell.

"Ho...... The cell boss was drinking, and when he saw the official escorting Niu Tong over, he glanced at Niu Tong's rotten butt and sighed.

"What kind of crime is this?"

"Kill people in the street!"

"Killing people in the street?Is this the son-in-law? No, the son-in-law can't be beaten like this......"

"What a boy, it's just a splash!"

"Alright, Lao Liu. I'll leave it to you!"

After handing Niu Tong over to the cell boss, the servant turned and left.

The cell boss threw the ox into an empty cell, locked the door, and went back to drinking.

His movements were a little rough, and Niu Tong was thrown by him and hit the ground with his buttocks, and he woke up in pain.

Niu Tong was in a trance, and he lay on the weeds for a long time before he slowly gained some energy.

"Eat......"

The jailer brought a bowl of food and put it at the door of Niu Tong's cell.

"Hey...... This kid ate such a good meal as soon as he came in?"

The prisoner in the cell next to him said a little sour when he saw that Niu Tong had actually added a chicken leg to his dinner.

"Want to eat?"

The jailer said to the man in the cell.

"Why don't you want to eat that?"

The prisoner smiled.

"If you want to eat, you can change it with him!"

"I want to, I'm afraid he won't!"

"Don't worry, if you want to change, he is absolutely willing. ”

The jailer teased with a smile on his face.

Hearing this, the prisoner felt that something was wrong, and asked, "What crime has this boy committed?"

"Kill! I'm going to be beheaded the day after tomorrow. Why, do you still want to change?"

"No change...... Don't change ......."

The prisoner waved his hand in fright.

Hearing that he was going to be beheaded the day after tomorrow, Niu Tong suddenly panicked, didn't care about the wound on his cheek, and rushed to the jailer.

"Brother Jailer, can you let me meet the county magistrate, I was wronged. I really didn't kill anyone......"

The jailer glanced at him and said, "Everyone who comes in says that they have been wronged!" If you don't believe him, ask him and see if he says that he is wronged?"

The jailer pointed to the prisoner next to the cow.

"Hey...... Hey ......"

The prisoner laughed dryly.

Seeing that the jailer didn't believe him, Niu Tong became more and more anxious, and said, "I am really wronged......"

The jailer became a little impatient and scolded: "Shut up! Who doesn't know that our Ding County Order is an honest official, and we have never wronged a person for so many years! At this time, you still have to quibble?"

After saying that, the jailer turned around and left, too lazy to continue listening to the noise of the cows.

"Jailer's Big Brother ......"

"Jailer's Big Brother ......"

......

Niu Tong shouted frantically behind him, but the jailer ignored him.

In the end, Niu Tong shouted so loudly that no one answered, and then he sat down on the ground as if he had accepted his fate.

"Hey, bro...... Are you still eating this chicken leg?"

"Brother?"

The prisoner next to him asked.

"If you don't eat it, I'll take it?"

Seeing that Niu Tong did not answer, the man stretched out his hand and grabbed the chicken leg from Niu Tong's bowl.

Eat with a mouth full of oil.

Niu Tong in the cell fell into deep thought.

He just wanted to scare An Quan, why did he hit the knife himself?

Also, why don't all people believe in themselves?

I just like to bully and bully people and talk big things on weekdays.

If you want to talk about killing, how can you have the courage to do this.

Why did it get to the way it is?

He couldn't figure it out.

The cow didn't sleep the same night.

The next day, an old woman with a basket came to the door of the cell. The old woman's eyes were red, and she had obviously just cried.

"There's only half an hour to visit the prison, so if you have anything to say, hurry up!" the cell boss instructed the old woman.

"Hey...... Hey......"

The old woman's eyes were blank, but she nodded repeatedly.

"Let's get in!"

The cell boss said.

"Hey......"

The old woman answered, and then, with trembling hands, pulled out a tightly wrapped object from the basket.

I don't know what kind of precious thing it is that deserves such caution as an old woman.

The old woman slowly untied the cloth wrapped on it, layer by layer, until about five layers of cloth were untied, and only then did the cell leader see what was inside.

It turned out to be ......

Four copper plates!

With trembling hands, the old woman picked up four copper plates and handed them to the cell leader, saying, "Please ...... adults to drink tea."

I have been guarding the cell for nearly ten years, and I am used to seeing prisoners of all shapes and sizes, and I have already refined a hard-hearted cell boss.

At this time, I was a little sour.

"Auntie, no...... No need!" the cell boss's voice choked up.

"This is the ...... it should be"

The old woman wouldn't let him refuse, but insisted that he accept it.

Helplessly, the cell boss could only take it. He knew in his heart that if he didn't accept it, the old woman would worry that her son's last days in prison would be unstable.

Four copper plates, not many catties at all.

But the cell boss felt that the money was ...... Heavy ones can crush people!

Dog's day cow same!

The cell boss cursed in his heart.
