Chapter 67: The human heart is always insufficient
Sun Xu saw that Ma Dayuan's business had been done, so he ordered two ghosts to escort him away. As for the pair of adulterers, they have been escorted down by the law enforcement disciples with trepidation, so as not to be embarrassed here.
After taking them away, the cloud-obscured sun began to appear again, shining again on the earth, and many of the people who had dispersed were emboldened to come back and watch.
Qiao Feng was very unhappy when he heard the beggar's words, and he shook his arm and shouted at him: "Qiao Feng is a Han man who stands up to the sky! With the Sanhuai couple as proof, the whole helmsman should not slander!"
The beggar is Quan Guanqing, who is known as the "Ten Directions Show Talent". After listening to Qiao Feng's self-defense, he sneered: "Qiao Sanhuai and his wife will naturally cover up for you. As the largest gang in the world, how can my beggar gang be led by an unknown person?"
When Qiao Feng heard this, he breathed a breath in his throat and was silent, and then Sun Xu stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother Qiao, this heart is doing things for the world and doing things for justice, why should you be trapped by the villain's words?" Qiao Feng pursed his lips and let out a sigh of relief.
Sun Xu glanced at Quan Guanqing slightly, and said coldly: "Qiao Feng suffered three major problems and made seven great contributions, but because of a letter that caught the wind and shadows, you fought for power and profit, and buried a good man, where are you better than those dogs?"
Quan Guan said sharply: "Who is Your Excellency, who is to exonerate the Khitan Hulu like this, is it because you want to betray Song Tongliao?"
Sun Xu laughed when he heard this: "I betrayed Song Tongliao? Hahaha, don't be joking! I might as well tell you, this lord is the royal brother of the emperor of the dynasty, and he is the prince of Guangping County, if I betray the Song Dynasty, what good will it be?"
When Quan Guanqing heard this, he was stunned on the spot, how could he have thought that the world-famous Guangping County Duke would appear here today, and he immediately didn't know what to say.
Sun Xu said to the beggars: "Benjue knows that you are all from poor families, if you are not desperate, who wants to be a beggar? Benjue was sent by the Son of Heaven to form a new army. Right now, Qiao Feng is the head coach of this new army, if any of you want to participate, just ask him to sign up!"
Most of the beggars present now are disciples with five or six bags, and when they learned that the person in front of them was the famous prince of Guangping County, what they said must be credible.
Recently, although the beggar gang without Qiao Feng has not reached the point of being divided and smoky, it is also a little weak. They joined the beggar gang just to make a living, and they had a place to go. If you follow Qiao Feng now, you can still be an official. When Qiao Feng was the gang leader, they had long been accustomed to obeying Qiao Gang Leader's orders, and they were naturally willing to continue to follow him.
Quan Guanqing knew that Sun Xu's skills were profound and invincible, but he was ambitious and wanted to keep the beggars under his control. Seeing that the disciples were shaken, he did not consult with the elders, but waved a group of beggars with cloth bags and asked them to put them on the ground. Then, looking gloomily at the stage, he took out an iron flute from his bosom, put it to his mouth and blew it.
With the sound of the flute, the bags on the ground actually moved, and immediately, I saw a few colorful snakes gradually twisted out of the many cloth bags, swimming straight towards the high platform.
"It's not good! Jungong, this is the snake formation of the beggar gang!" Qiao Feng, as the leader of the beggar gang, naturally knew what this was. At that moment, he took a step forward to protect Sun Xu, and said angrily: "Quan Guanqing! You know the identity of the county prince, how dare you do such an evil act?"
At the same time, several elders of the beggar gang were also so shocked that they wanted to jump to their feet, shouting: "Quan Guanqing! Don't mess around! He is a member of the imperial court, and killing him will only cause the beggar gang to cause a catastrophe!"
Quan Guanqing ignored them and sneered: "These two people have ruined the reputation of my beggar gang for a hundred years, how can they be kept! What about the county prince? Everyone can be punished!"
The sound of the iron whistle continued, and more and more large snakes twisted out of the cloth bag, and in a few moments, hundreds of them gathered beside the high platform, and five or six of them were pythons. A group of snakes meandered upward, and there were more than 20 giant pythons in the distance like a tide, and the dense ground was full of snakes writhing and the sound of them "hissing" and spitting letters, which made people feel that their scalp was numb!
Seeing this, Qiao Feng raised his hand in a posture, and was about to kill the snake group with his palm first, and then take the flute of the whole crown to control the snake, but he heard Sun Xu sigh softly.
Strange to say, with this sigh, the group of snakes suddenly stopped moving forward, shaking their upper bodies and looking at Sun Xu in unison.
Sun Xu said: "Quan Guanqing, I originally thought you were a talent, and I wanted to keep you by your side and let you spy on intelligence for the Great Song Dynasty." I don't want you to be so ambitious, it's a pity for your clever tongue!"
After the word "clever tongue" was finished, those snakes quickly turned their heads, and almost all the snake bodies were close to the ground, and quickly walked towards Quan Guanqing, who was still playing the flute.
Seeing this, Quan Guanqing's face was suddenly full of horror, and he hurriedly played the flute vigorously. But who knew that it was good that he didn't exert himself, the harder he tried, the faster those snakes became, and in the blink of an eye, several small snakes had arrived beside him. Quan Guanqing screamed "ah", hurriedly threw the iron flute at the small snakes, pulled out the talisman steel knife, and split a snake that had been bitten into two pieces. Just as he was about to use light skills to escape from the battle circle, he suddenly felt a soft object roll up to his ankle.
Quan Guanqing knew that the situation was not good, and hurriedly flew up. I didn't want the four pythons that had just swam over to raise their snake bodies at the same time, and attacked him in unison. Quan Guanqing was in mid-air, and the brush slashed out two knives, and then cut off the two pythons in front and on the left, and the body shook and fell a foot away. As soon as he stood firmly, another giant python attacked, and he slashed out with a sharp sword, and the head of a giant python was cut to pieces.
At this time, Quan Guanqing took the time to look down, only to see that his waist and right leg had been entangled by two giant pythons, so he shouted, raised his knife and slashed at the belly of the giant python on his waist, only splashing with fishy snake blood. How do you know that although the snake's belly is worn, it is not dead for a while? Under the pain of the giant python, it was tightened even more violently, only to break the waist bone of the whole crown.
He struggled hard, but he couldn't break it at all. Then several more pythons flung up and quickly circled around him, even his arms were wrapped around him, so that he could no longer move, until his eyes protruded, his muscles flared up, and his face was blood-red.
After a while, Quan Guanqing's head, which was still shaking, stopped, his breath gradually disappeared, and he was strangled to death. The snake chaser was entangled to death by the snake he drove away, and he was also to blame!
The pythons solved the goal, and after a short time they all scattered and retreated.
Only then did several elders of the beggar gang come back to their senses, and they hurried over to greet Sun Xu. Although they have a lot of dissatisfaction with what Sun Xu did today, but today the people in the beggar gang are mad and attack the lord of the imperial court, and at worst, it is a rebellion to kill officials, how dare they not pull down their sons and come to Sun Xu to intercede now?
Sun Xu saw that he was late, and sneered: "Is the beggar gang so bold? If you report the name of the imperial court, you still want to kill the lord!"
Qiao Feng was a little unbearable when he saw this, after all, he had worked with the beggars for many years, seeing that they were so down, he intended to intercede, and stepped forward and said, "The county prince ......"
Sun Xu interrupted him with a wave of his hand, and said to a few elders: "If it weren't for Brother Qiao's face today, the beggars?"
Hearing this, several people looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and thanked Qiao Feng with mixed feelings. On that day, they jointly decided to chase Qiao Feng out of the beggar gang, but they didn't expect to be rescued by Qiao Feng today.
Seeing them like this, Sun Xu straightened his clothes and said, "Do you still have any objections to my recruitment of beggars to help the people?"
Several elders thought of the ghost messenger who had just been summoned by Sun Xu, and Quan Guanqing, who died tragically on the side, how could they dare to say a word? Shaking their heads again and again, they were complaining in their hearts about Quan Guanqing: You are resourceful on weekdays, how can you see that people have the means of ghosts and gods, and you still use such tricks to cause trouble to the beggar gang!
