Ximen County is not the Shili Street under the jurisdiction of Shili Town, once the sun goes down, it will be black. On the contrary, even if it is late at night, the street lights on the street are still bright, and many restaurants and Fengyue places are singing every night.

The drunkard who has nothing to do and buys drunk late at night, the gentleman who has nothing to do, the official eunuch who hides the old ladies at home can only come out to forage for food at night, the gambler who always likes to act in the dark, or the prodigal disciple, and so on are not a few people in Ximen County after all.

Even in the prison that should have been solemn in Ximen County, there were a few jailers who couldn't stand the loneliness and inner restlessness in the middle of the night, and it happened that a noble man who visited the prison today rewarded them with a few mouthfuls of wine and meat, so they lit a bonfire, formed a circle, ate meat, drank wine, and chatted heartily.

The whole country of Daxia is now singing and dancing, and the well-informed citizens are not as brave and ruthless as the poor townsmen, and it has been some time since the Imperial Forest Army went to the countryside to retrieve the little fat man, and there is no wind blowing and grass moving, and 500 meters to the west of the Ximen County Prison is the fast capture camp, and 500 meters to the east is the garrison of the Royal Forest Army.

The thug little fat man Zhang has been arrested, and at noon the day after tomorrow, he was sent to Weicheng in the northeast to replenish the army to guard the frontier far away from the desert tribe in the northeast. The county magistrate of Ximen County also issued an arrest warrant to arrest another thug, Mo Xiaohe, but there was no news for many days, and it seems that he was already frightened by various incidents and fled.

As a result, the jailers slowly let their guard down.

The hinterland of the Great Xia Dynasty has been peaceful for a long time, singing and dancing, although there are occasional thieves and prostitutes, but there are no bandits and no wars. Secretly, there are some troubled boys, or some hot-blooded teenagers punch and kick each other without saying a word, but it doesn't hurt.

As for most of the people of Daxia, although they are still martial, most of them are also simple and good people who have passed away, and they do not compete with nobles or officials.

Therefore, the slaughter of nearly 100 farmers in unknown villages a few days ago was a rare event, which caused a stir and even alarmed the county lord of Hanoi.

The county lord sent an envoy from Hanoi County to find out that there was a slight conflict between a group of outlaws and the villagers, and the villagers were not convinced by the ruthlessness of the gangsters, so the two sides drew knives and fought each other, resulting in a tragedy. At least that's the case with the news from the Ximen County garrison and the county order, as well as the folk rumors.

The Ximen County Commander and the Qian Laiqian garrison also personally went out to send the gang of gangsters who slaughtered good people into prison.

In particular, the Qian garrison of the 20,000 Imperial Forest Army under the seat was indignant, and he stood high on the city gate the day before yesterday, holding his sword and asking the sky, with fierce ambitions, "I, Qian Lai, have been guarding the West Gate for more than ten years, although I dare not say that all the people are rich under my rule, but there has never been such a tragedy that exterminated humanity!

"I, Qian Lai, say here, that one day I will go into battle shirtless and personally behead these lawless and inhumane beasts outside the noon gate!"

"I, Qian Lai, swear here, at least during my tenure, that such a tragedy will never be tolerated! If there is, I will step down from my post as a garrison in Ximen County and assign myself to the frontier for ten years!"

"I, Qian Lai, will never allow my people to suffer any more unfair treatment! Heaven will not work, the earth will not work, and heaven and earth will not do it!"

His bold words have become the talk of Ximen County and even several neighboring counties, at least in the mouths of ordinary citizens and villagers.

After all, this is the case, in recent decades in Great Xia, the people have lived and worked in peace and contentment, and indeed few people have died violently for no reason. Moreover, the Great Xia military horses have never bullied the people, that is, when there is a drought or flood, when the people of Great Xia are in dire straits, the Great Xia military horses personally come to the house to help and help, and work hard.

Moreover, since ancient times, there have been a few officials who are not high-minded and only care about their black hats, and they look like dogs. This Qian Lai now put down his body, stood at the city gate and shouted, hysterical for the sake of the people of Great Xia, personally went out to arrest the murderer, and the most respectable and admirable person was to personally go into battle shirtless to kill the murderer.

This responsibility is rare.

Therefore, the massacre of the villagers of Shili Street has passed like this. At least in the eyes of people who are not personally involved in this incident and who are far away from Shili Street and Shili Town, it is in the past.

It's just that the poor people of Shili Street are now desolate and wild, and they really don't dare to look at it.

It is also pitiful that Shili Street is close to several villages, and people dare not go there for fear of ghosts.

At this time, it is the second watch, and the street lights on the streets of Ximen County are still bright, but except for some Fengyue places, there are few people walking around on the streets.

In the depths of Ximen County Prison, in the center of Ximen County, 500 meters to the west is the big camp of the catcher, and 500 meters to the east is the garrison of the Imperial Forest Army.

Dozens of jailers guarding the door were full of wine and food, and after chatting about the bad things of the past few days, they were tasteless, sleeping and pouring, and even the two people who were now on duty were also shaky.

It was dark and silent.

Whoosh.

Two thumb-sized stone characters pierced the night sky, hitting the temples of the two gatekeepers, and the two of them, who were already shaky, fell to the ground with a bang.

Ten strong men jumped out of the wall in the darkness, their eyes misty.

Then two figures jumped out, one in the prime of life and one in the youth. The prime of life is Zhang Hu, who is full of gray hair overnight, and the young man is Mo Xiaohe, who is covered with straw sandals and full of exhaustion.

The two people from Diao Min have endured for nearly seven days, one is bound to save the child, and the other is estimated to slaughter the city.

The two of them walked to one of the cell doors in unison, lifted their footboards, and kicked them open.

The lights in the prison were dim, and there were three or five jailers on the ground, only three of them stood in the distance, one was tall and dark-skinned, standing with his hands in his hands, and his sword eyes were full of evil under his broken eyebrows.

The other was a bloated and fat man, bald on the top of his head, and his body was crowded with the Taishi's chair, rich and lazy. Beside him stood a large man with a misty look in his eyes.

The big fat man and the man with broken eyebrows skimmed their faces in unison.

Mo Xiaohe froze his straight body and looked at the two of them at eye level.

None of the three spoke.

There are a lot of cells in Ximen County Prison, and this is just one of the cells, where the little fat man Zhang Ze is held alone.

The little fat man was still shackled and tied to his cell, his head was disheveled, his head hung weakly, and he was chained like a quadriplegic. He was wearing only a pair of shorts, naked, covered in blood.

There is no longer the crazy and cool anti-heaven atmosphere.

If it weren't for the fat on his body that was loose and falling to be worthy of a pig, he really responded to that sentence, and he was beaten so that his father and his mother didn't recognize it.

is only in his forties, but Zhang Hu, who is full of gray hair, knelt under his son and cried.

"Oh my god!" Ignoring the tears and snot on his face, Zhang Hu's calloused hands kept stroking Zhang Ze's face full of scars and bloodstains, and his voice was weak and hoarse, "Son, I was beaten so much that I almost couldn't recognize my father!"

"It's the damn one who beat my son into this virtue!"

"If I Zhang Hu doesn't chop you, how will my daughter-in-law and son spare me!"

Boss Fu on the Taishi's chair stared blankly.

Mo Xiaohe just stared at Boss Fu's face.

The old shrimp turned his face and secretly looked at the back of the father and son, as if he wanted to laugh.

Zhang Hu deceived Chen into giving birth to Zhang Ze in his thirties, and he is a well-known beloved son in Shili Street, even in Shili Town. Spoiled Zhang Ze to the point of almost madness, and outsiders in his eyes did not doubt it at all, Zhang Ze wanted Zhang Hu's heart and liver to soak in wine, Zhang Hu definitely did not blink.

Every time Zhang Ze, who is as strong as a pig, scrapes a piece of skin, Zhang Hu has to feel heartache for a long time.

Now that he has been beaten like a pig's head, he has not taken Zhang Hu's life.

"Son, don't die. Go home with Daddy. Otherwise, it's your father who will die. Zhang Hu didn't care that there were outsiders, and he didn't lose his breath when he touched Zhang Ze, so he cut off the chain and hugged him, crying and shouting while trotting out.

"Pity the hearts of parents all over the world. ”

"There's my carriage parked outside the prison, so drive back. ”

Boss Fu on the Taishi's chair looked at Zhang Hu's back, which should have been a husband and wife, but he was rickety, and shouted in a deep voice.

Mo Xiaohe suddenly frowned.
