Memories are as fresh as yesterday. The day has been three poles, and the executioner put the back of the knife on his shoulder, waiting for Li County's order to give the order. The audience seems to have waited too long for the brother of the flower thief to be executed immediately.

Li Xian Ling looked at the crowd in the audience, and said sharply: "Cao Zheng, in front of the righteous official, do you have any last words to say?"

Cao Zhengchen's face was full of dust, his temples were like frost, and he was still unwilling: "The grass people are kind by nature and are dedicated to the Buddha." Why is fate unfair, kill me, you will regret it!"

caused a sigh from the audience, Guan Dadong was silent on the side, because his sweetheart Mei Ruoxue came to witness the verdict. Guo Yitian was absent-minded, as if everything had been settled. Bai Lang and Lin Xian'er were also not present, and they didn't know where they went.

Unexpectedly, Li Chaofan was at the scene, probably out of the shadow of the loss of the power struggle, and did not want the power of the beggar gang to fall. The beggars didn't say a word, beat the dog sticks and enshrined them in the cloth hall, waiting for the new owner to come and have it. In fact, although the elders who are second only to the leader of the beggar gang wield the stick with ease, they have not learned the true transmission of beating dog sticks. The dog-beating sticks are all for the successors of the Church by the Lord, and there are no classics that can be learned and used now. Perhaps, as Cao Zheng said, without him, the dog-beating stick method may be lost. This cannot but be said to be a big regret since the establishment of the beggar gang for 300 years, and it has chilled the hearts of many people who divide the helm in order to fight for power and profit.

Li Xianling said disapprenousively: "Who do you think you are? If you are killed, the people of Suzhou will be able to live and work in peace and contentment." Cao Zheng said angrily: "I have a strong backer, if you don't believe it, your fate will not be much better than mine." ”

Li Xianling suddenly felt a sense of emptiness, but in front of so many people, there was no turning back. The sun becomes shining, bringing a touch of warmth to the cold winter months. Li Xianling strengthened his determination, and he couldn't control so many words, and ordered: "The auspicious time has come, cut it down!" As he spoke, Li Xianling threw out the token of beheading.

The executioner only needs a blink of an eye to finish Cao Zheng. Beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his face, perhaps because he had been in the warm sun for too long. He actually became hesitant when he started, and he was not so cowardly when he cut off the heads of the most heinous people in the past.

The audience shouted one after another, "Behead, behead, behead!" The crusade was so strong, and the attitude was also the same hatred. Now the arrow is on the line, and it has to be sent.

Suddenly, there was a stop from the 800-mile urgent officers and soldiers in the distance: "Wait! Leave people under the knife!" The executioner, who was the knife of justice, had no time to care about it, and was about to go down with a knife, but suddenly the blood did not stop. It turned out that the eunuch on horseback threw the large knife at his waist and hit the executioner right in the wrist.

The executioner's butcher's knife slipped down. The eunuch got off his horse and took out the holy decree, and Li Xiangru hurriedly knelt down to accept the decree. The eunuch's yin and yang strange aura said: Fengtian carrier, the emperor said. Although Cao Yang committed a heinous crime, he was stabbed to death by a person of insight, and the matter of the flower thief came to an end. As a brother, Cao Zheng should not bear any responsibility for this, Qin this!

Li Xiangru remembered Cao Zheng's words, and was afraid, the world was unpredictable, and he didn't expect that Emperor Zhao Heng would also support Cao Zheng. This time, Li Xiangru capsized in the gutter. The masses dispersed unhappily, Guan Dadong, Guo Yitian and Cao Zheng had a disagreement, and Cao Zheng successfully became the leader of the beggar gang in the future, so Longmen and Humen did not have a good life.

Back in Humen, Guan Dadong suddenly felt lost. Now Cao Zheng has restored his reputation, and has driven out Li Chaofan and become the acting leader of the beggar gang. Ding Shier was also frightened by Cao Zheng's rude behavior at the beginning, and had to offer advice to Guan Dadong: "The master of the gate, Cao Zheng's background is very strong. If the hard ones don't work, we'll come with the soft ones. For the sake of today's plan, take the initiative to admit mistakes, turn hostility into friendship, and maybe recover some losses. ”

Guan Dadong was silent for a long time, and said as if he was sitting on pins and needles: "In your opinion, how can Humen recover its losses?" Ding Shier analyzed: "My eldest brother Ding Shi's injury has just recovered, so it is better to let him act as a lobbyist and bring 10,000 taels of silver." Moved by affection and reasoned, I don't believe that Cao Zheng will not be happy with money. ”

"That's fine, let's send you Ding Shi Great Protector to intercede. ”

Coming to the disgruntled beggar gang, Li Xiangru, who changed his face faster than the sky, delivered the people's fat and ointment he had looted in the past year to Cao Zheng's hands as soon as possible without saying a word. When Cao Zheng saw Yin Liang, his anger immediately subsided by half, but the impact of today's verdict on him was too great, so he asked: "Thirty years in the west and east, thirty years in the west and west." I can't imagine that you, a county official, are too ignorant of current affairs, and only 10,000 taels of silver were looted in a year. From the leader of the beggar gang to the prisoner, can you understand my sadness?"

Li Xiangru knelt on the ground and kept hitting his ear scraper: "Now you should be satisfied." Cao Zheng sneered: "It's not enough!" ”

Then Ding Shida came to pay a visit, and also took out 10,000 taels of silver to show his sincerity and sue for peace. Cao Zheng has always grovelled in Humen, and he didn't expect Humen to put down his body and bow down, which made him enjoy it very much. Ding Shida said: "Gang Master Cao, Humen treated your brother Cao Yang well in the past, can you write off this grievance on the old feelings." ”

Cao Zheng escaped death and made a lot of money. But his ambition is far from this, and he said angrily: "I said a long time ago that Cao Yang and I are not all the way, don't compare me with him in the future." Also, if you are not sincere enough, I will never forgive you. ”

Ding Shida asked rhetorically, "Then how can we be forgiven Humen?"

Cao Zheng's eyes rolled, and he said domineeringly: "10,000 taels of silver is too little, unless you can come up with 100,000 taels of silver, you can solve the hatred in my heart." ”

One hundred thousand taels of silver is an astronomical amount for Li Xiangru, and he said desperately: "It's too much, even if I lose all my net worth, I can't make up so much money." Ding Shida was silent on the side.

Cao Zheng couldn't care so much, and his tone was aggressive: "Since you can't take out 100,000 taels of silver, then you have to be obedient, and I Cao Zheng will have the final say alone in Suzhou City in the future." ”

This pair is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, and not everyone is willing to give up their core interests. Cao Zheng continued: "In order to prove your sincerity, now I order the two of you to run naked around Suzhou City. Otherwise, they must pay all 100,000 taels of silver. ”

When the dignity of life contradicts the pressure of survival, the two abandon the former.

Today, Suzhou City has a "beautiful landscape". Ding Shida and Li Xiangru walked through the city of Suzhou in the winter with their chests and backs bare, wearing only big pants, attracting many passers-by to stop and watch.

"Aren't they crazy, in the winter, aren't they afraid of contracting the wind and cold?"

"Did my eyes see it wrong?! Ding Protector and Li Xianling actually jogged bare-chested, what two strange flowers!"
