Chapter 217: Punishment of Evil in the Mountains
The natives poured into the door of this house from all sides, and Tao Ziyun shouted to He Renzhi and Hu Xiongdie's master and servant: "Catch Chen Zhenmang quickly!"
The four people who came with Tao Ziyun woke up like a dream, stuck the lantern in their hands in the wall next to the gate, and pounced on Chen Zhenmang one after another, grabbing Chen Zhenmang's hands with all hands and feet.
Tao Ziyun pulled out and conjured more than 200 bean soldiers to form a human wall at the gate!
The people who came to support Chen Zhenmang were blocked from the door, and it was useless to babble anything, because Tao Ziyun and they couldn't understand it at all.
Chen Zhenmang's hands were dragged behind his back by the four people, and he shouted helplessly: "What do you want?!"
Tao Ziyun solemnly warned Chen Zhenmang: "You hurry up and tell this group of people to retreat! If they forcibly attack the human wall, we will have to fight back, and you have learned our interests at noon today! Otherwise, it will be your fault if there are casualties!"
Chen Zhenmang shouted and talked to those people in local dialect for a while, and then replied to Tao Ziyun: "They want you to retreat first, and they will go back if you don't take me!"
"How can this be reasonable! Then we didn't come in vain?! You owe us the performance fee at noon today, and besides, can you not bear the consequences of instigating so many people to attack us alone?!" He Renzhi asked Chen Zhenmang sharply, and he had no intention of letting go at all.
"I led people to attack your people at noon today, you can continue to catch me like this, and even beat me to offset it! I will also give you the performance fee!" Chen Zhenmang replied in despair.
"This can be offset!? Besides, didn't you say that you didn't have the money to pay the performance fee at noon today?" Chen Zhenmang's countermeasures made Tao Ziyun a little surprised.
Chen Zhenmang said dejectedly: "Later, I borrowed the silver from others, originally I took this silver to this isolated ancient village, wanting to avoid your reproach, but I didn't expect to be found by you!"
"It's not that there is no passage to connect to the outside world, why is it isolated from the world?, will we not be able to find you?" Tao Ziyun was no longer in a hurry. This nonsense may be able to ask something valuable.
Chen Zhenmang felt unprecedented trouble, and he had to hope forgiveness only by forcibly defending himself: "Because this place is located in the depths of the Suspicious Mountain, the wars of the past dynasties have not affected this ancient village, and now the government has not entered the hinterland of this primitive deep forest to govern, this village has been cultivating in this mountain, and there is no need to pay all kinds of taxes to the government!"
"Although this place is hidden, what responsibility do the people here have for you to take refuge?" Tao Ziyun finally asked the point.
"I can't say that. In the end, Chen Zhenmang still retains a little privacy.
"! I can't say this!" Tao Ziyun suppressed the anger in his heart, and then asked Chen Zhenmang: "Your silver was borrowed from Sang Benyuan, right?
"You all saw me go to the Sang Mansion to borrow money?!" Chen Zhenmang fully understood the interests of these opponents in front of him. "Yes, I can only borrow from him, and I can't pay it back, and I can't afford to pay it back. ”
The mystery in Tao Ziyun's heart was even greater: "This is strange, you borrowed the silver not long after you entered the Sang Mansion, how could Sang Benyuan look up to you so much, and lend you the silver so easily? It stands to reason that a rich and noble family like Sang Benyuan is at the bottom of the society, and the people at the bottom of the society. It's normal for you to get kicked out soon when you go in!"
"I can't say that either. Chen Zhenmang retains another privacy.
"Don't say this! Don't say that! You have to think about it, you have fallen into our hands, and you can't help it!" Tao Ziyun's anger came up, and the hole flute started. More than 200 bean soldiers outside the gate raised a puff of light smoke and a strong wind blew, and all the natives who came to blindly support Chen Zhenmang were carried up by the bean soldiers! Some bean soldiers picked up two of them, no matter how those natives struggled, they just couldn't get out!
"You have an enmity with me. Because they can't help me, don't have anything to do with me!"
Tao Ziyun said contemptuously to Chen Zhenmang: "It is the nature of people like you to cheat death, you don't come with me like this!"
Chen Zhenmang wailed and said to Tao Ziyun: "If you want me to pay the performance fee, I promise to hand it over to you! I have led people to beat your people, and you can beat me too! This is my sin! What I can't say, of course I don't want to say." Just like if I want to ask you who you are and your detailed origins, you may not tell me all the truth!"
Tao Ziyun was stunned for a moment, and secretly thought to himself: "If Chen Zhenmang asks me who I am, is it necessary for me to sue him? Of course there is no need, I won't sue others that he is a person who has crossed over." Chen Zhenmang didn't answer, is it because he and Sang Motoyuan's privacy are involved? It's better to put aside these questions for the time being, and it is possible to find out the truth from Kumotohara in the future. ”
Thinking of this, Tao Ziyun said to He Renzhi and them: "Let him go!"
Chen Zhenmang was relieved, threw the tongs on his right hand to the ground, took out a bag of things from his arms, and held it in front of Tao Ziyun with both hands: "This is the silver I borrowed from Master Sang, all of it is used as performance fees, I don't have more, if you are too little, or you think that I have not been punished enough, just beat me to offset it." ”
Tao Ziyun was not in a hurry to collect the money, and asked Chen Zhenmang lightly: "Let me ask you first, do you dare to be a villain and deliberately blackmail people?"
"I don't dare anymore! With you people here, where would I dare to do such a thing!" Chen Zhenmang has completely lost his previous arrogance.
"Nonsense! With us here, you won't dare to do this kind of thing, and when we're not there, you're going to do it again? Do we have to guard you? Then we can't let you go!" Tao Ziyun heard Chen Zhenmang's statement, and when he asked, he was going crazy again!
"Don't dare! Don't dare! Don't dare anyway, with you here to teach me such a big lesson, I must abandon the darkness and turn to the light, change the evil and return to the right!" Seeing Tao Ziyun's anger, Chen Zhenmang's heart panicked, and he quickly expressed his determination to be a new man!
"I hope you do what you say!" Tao Ziyun warned Chen Zhenmang, "If you make the same mistakes as before, you will be taught a stricter lesson! If you are determined to live a good life, go home as soon as possible, your father and mother are lonely, you take this bag of silver, go back and honor them well, and you don't want to pay the performance fee." ”
"Is it true? You won't hold me accountable!" Chen Zhenmang was overjoyed, it was really unbelievable!
Hu Xiongdie was a little embarrassed, he reminded Tao Ziyun and said: "Tao Gongzi, didn't you tell his father and mother to let him be an officer and soldier, let him grow up in the barracks, his accomplices have all entered the barracks, you want him to be an officer and soldier." Let him leave his whole body intact, I'm afraid it will leave a legacy of trouble. ”
Chen Zhenmang heard the voice outside the words, and he took the initiative to demand: "As long as you don't hold me accountable, I can be an officer and soldier." ”
"Tao Gongzi, I thought of another point, the local dialect spoken by the people here is like the language of those faint beasts, and since this Chen Zhenmang can speak our popular words, and can speak the words of the faint beast, let him be the officer and soldier, he can translate the words of the hostile faint beast to the officers and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers understand the meaning of the faint beast, which is of great help to the officers and soldiers to defeat the stunned beast!" He Renzhi further explained the benefits of letting Chen Zhenmang be an officer and soldier.
But Tao Ziyun was unmoved, he pulled He Renzhi and Hu Xiongdie aside, and said to them softly: "I originally wanted to let the officers and soldiers confront the stun beast for a long time, so as not to let the officers and soldiers have the spirit to encircle and suppress Zhao Jinlong and them. Zhao Jinlong and his troops had to revolt as a last resort, and they couldn't let the officers and soldiers and Zhao Jinlong and their team kill! If this Chen Zhenmang was allowed to be an officer and soldier, it would be a bad thing!"
After listening to Tao Ziyun's explanation, He Renzhi and Hu Xiongdie nodded solemnly and did not make any further comments.
"That's it, you take the money back to serve your father, and you have to do your job again. After Tao Ziyun finished speaking to Chen Zhenmang, the dong flute was waved and asked the bean soldiers to put down those natives. (To be continued......)
