Chapter 18 18.It's just a matter of hand

What is "the world" and what is "rivers and lakes"?

Where there are clouds, there is the world, and where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

Exactly.

Jinhua, a prosperous place since ancient times, of course, there are a lot of people.

Where there are many people, there are many stories. There are many rights and wrongs, and there are naturally many of them.

Related to the rivers and lakes, in addition to chivalry, martial arts, and famous swords, how can there be less wine and women?

For example, right now, I am sitting by the window in the lobby of this inn opposite Yihongyuan, drinking myself, while watching coldly the men and women of all kinds coming and going in the streets and alleys.

Why should I eat here?

It's not that I'm so passionate about prostitution, or how much I like to watch the various performances in the wind and moon field. It's just that this kind of place has a lot of people and a huge amount of information circulation, which is convenient for capturing information and gathering intelligence.

Compared to the teahouse where you listen to books, the information you get from this kind of place is sometimes much more useful.

I'm here and I'm only going to stay for one day. Just eating, sleeping, and not wanting to do anything else.

Because I have to rush to Chuzhou and go to the Nangong family for the second time.

Nangong Ying is already dead, and my next target should have been Nangong Jiu. But before Nangong Ying died, he begged me to let him go. I don't know why, but I said yes in my heart.

Therefore, I will find a way to avoid Nangong Jiu and wait for the opportunity to take Nangong Jun directly. As long as Nangong Jiu doesn't find out and block me himself, I won't go to him for trouble.

It's best not to see each other.

Let a sleeping dog lie.

As a killer, even more so. I need to finish my mission early and go back to Fluttershy.

While I was eating in a muffled voice, there was a sudden chaos at the entrance of Yihong Courtyard on the opposite street. The voices are loud, gossiping, and sometimes noisy. Immediately afterward, some people in my inn pointed out the door and began to talk nervously.

Looks like something is wrong.

I didn't plan to pay attention to it, and continued to bow my head to drink, but I heard someone shouting: "Uncle, please let my daughter go! She is still young! You can catch me!"

Well?

Upon closer inspection, a rough voice was yelling, "You slut, old and ugly, no one wants to be a prostitute!

"Leave her alone, I beg you...... Zhu Ye!"

"Get out of here! Stinky bitch! If you don't fucking get out, I want you to look good!"

With a few loud slaps, a woman wailed one after another, hoarse and miserable. There were people in the crowd who were constantly pointing and whispering. However, none of them came out to stop it.

Scold......

The reality is like this, and there are a few people who will draw their swords to help and stand up for justice without involving their own vital interests? Heroes, chivalrous, after all, there are too few.

Especially in this kind of world.

The stories told by the storytellers in the teahouse are just obscenity and pastime, who will take them seriously?

Put down the chopsticks, walked out of the inn, and slowly walked to the periphery of the crowd to see, only to hear people talking energetically.

"Look at this man, he is so vicious!"

"yes, we can't afford to mess with it, we can't afford to mess with it. ”

"These mother and daughter, so pitiful! ”

"What's going on?"

"I heard that the gambling card owes him three times, and the profit has become fifteen taels, and now he can't afford it, and people want to arrest her daughter and sell it here to pay off the debt. ”

"Oh! This little girl is also miserable, such a girl. ”

......

As the onlookers discussed, the beating man sneered and shouted around: "!

The crowd gradually dispersed, and the timid ones had already left, but a simple-dressed, old Confucian student seemed to be really unable to stand it, and his mouth was babbling, and he couldn't help but say: "Qingtianbai *** is a prostitute, and forcibly robs people...... Is there a royal law here?"

Oh, this sentence angered this person.

I saw this guy with a meaty face turn around and shout at the old Confucian student: "Bah! Wang Fa? Lao Tzu is Wang Fa here! Where did you roll out of the coffin, and dare to meddle with the uncle's affairs?"

The old man was so angry that he trembled, his lips trembled, and before he could reply, a little servant hurriedly pulled him to turn his head and leave, and only then did he walk out of the distance and say: "Daddy, you are so confused! How dare you care about the affairs of Zhu Peel? His bully, who opened gambling houses, exchange houses, and released official debts, not to mention the people, the people in the official palace and yamen near and far, who dared to offend him!"

Dare to love is still a character, this snake on the ground!

......

As Zhu Papi shouted and scolded and intimidated, the people at the corner of the street dispersed one after another, leaving only the woman who had been beaten to death still clutching at his shirt and begging bitterly: "Uncle! I beg you, uncle! My family is only 10 years old, and it will kill her if she picks up customers! You spoil me, let her go, let her go!"

Hearing this, Zhu Peel was upset, spat hard, and kicked the woman in the stomach, causing her to snort and roll her eyes.

Zhu Papi scolded from his mouth: "Broken **! Dog is not as cheap as a cheap embryo!"

After scolding, the two subordinates around him replied: "Master Zhu, the person is dead." "My feet are heavy, this woman is out of breath!"

"Hey!" Hearing this, Zhu Papi's face trembled, smiled cruelly, and shook the woman's body with his toes, and saw that he was indeed out of breath, so he put down his feet and said, "Why do you still want to slander people? Die, die! Find a straw mat and wrap her, drag her to a mass grave outside the city, and bury her!"

After saying that, he turned to another subordinate, bowed his head and instructed: "Buy a bottle of good wine, seal five coins of silver, and go to Lu Zhutou's house for a while, and tell these people not to talk nonsense!"

"Okay, the little one got it. ”

......

In a short time, the scene passed like a singing opera. Outside the Yihong Courtyard, it has returned to its usual normal.

In the afternoon, after two lazy officials pretended to come and go around, one shouted to the street: "Unprovoked scolding of the people, causing trouble in the neighborhood! Fighting to death, now the case has been cleared privately!

This is a folk drama that I saw from beginning to end this day. The world is hot and cold, and people are indifferent, that's it. It's not much different from the past when I was just a shabby talent.

The law of the jungle eats the strong, bullies collude with the government, bully the weak, confuse black and white, and this has been the case since ancient times. And what's all the fuss?

To be honest, as a killer, as long as there is no obstruction or provocation of me, I usually won't interfere in the affairs of the rivers and lakes. For one thing, it has nothing to do with my task, and I don't have to waste my time by meddling. I don't want to kill the wicked to save the people, and I don't want to be a hero, nor do I want to help the officials and get any reward for serving the government. Second, I have to think about whether I will expose myself if I am not careful in my words and deeds, which will be a big deal.

But this time, this Zhu Papi kept saying "he is the king of the law here", and he wanted to bully the old Confucian student, but I really couldn't get used to it.

Because I was also a scholar, and even my talent was not as good as that old Confucian student. I was also bullied and oppressed a lot in those years, and I didn't have a place to relieve my anger!

Scold...... You may not have thought that you, a Jinhua tyrant, would be so awesome that you would die, right?

Damn, the dog took advantage of the people's power, robbed the people's daughters, and behaved as a matter of course. Even if someone supports you, what if you have it? In my eyes, you are already a dead body.

People who can't be provoked by the common people, things that the government doesn't care, end up in the hands of me, a professional murderer. It's really retribution.

Therefore, that night, when this "Zhu Ye" was in the room of Yihong Courtyard, he stripped off his clothes with three points of drunkenness, and was about to spoil the girl, when he suddenly saw three heads under his three subordinates.

On the bloody head, the expressions of the three faces are still so vivid.

He was so frightened that he couldn't even shout for help.

After cutting his throat and letting his blood go, I suddenly had another interest, and threw it into the yamen with his head.

I want to guess what the expressions on the faces of the head hunters and others will be when they see this thing.

Haha, Lu Zhutou!

I hope you don't get too curious. I'm not a chivalrous man who punishes evil and destroys evil, I just kill a few damned people.

Don't track it too closely. If you find me, you're not far from death.

The truth is life-threatening.

I'm really not trying to scare you, I'm really thinking about you!
