stubborn thief

Chapter 198 Yuan San is bored

Ever since he was transferred to guard the city gate, Yuan Sanmo was very unhappy.

His surname was Feng, and he was a rogue in the county when he was young.

At the age of 19, he lost his mother-in-law to others and became a beggar himself, unable to survive.

He broke into Yuan Yuanwai's casino and was beaten for a while. He broke his leg when he broke in again. When his leg recovered, he went to make trouble and had his left little finger chopped off. He didn't say a word from the beginning to the end.

From that day on, Yuan Yuanwai's casino gave him two taels of silver every month.

In fact, since the founding of the country at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, people in the Ming Dynasty trembled when they heard the word gambling, because the Emperor Taizu said that people gambling would kill their hands and officials would be dismissed.

This matter was banned after the death of Emperor Taizu, at least no one dared to blatantly gamble.

But the year Feng San got into the casino was 37 years since Wanli.

At that time, the emperor was slack in government, there were not enough local officials, and all the laws and regulations were not easy to use. Moreover, the emperor himself gambled in the dark with the people in the palace. Four times, the wind of gambling immediately rekindled the north and south of the country within two or three years.

Yuan Yuanwai was not an official, but only donated a crown and belt. He was an old rascal at first, and became the grandson of an eunuch during the Wanli period.

The grandson is the godson of the godson.

Relying on this relationship, he won two mines in Heshui County and became a mine boss. However, due to sloppy surveys and lack of enthusiasm from the people who forced the mines, the ore mined not only failed to make Yuan Yuanwai earn money, but even signed a contract with Grandpa Gan. The money shared equally between the government and the people has not been earned.

Fortunately, Yuan Yuan was smart, and while no one knew about it, he joined his godfather to sell the mine head to Master Qi, who is known as a half pass in Xiguan, Heshui County.

Mr. Qi has cultivated and studied family heirlooms from generation to generation, and he himself is a high-spirited official. Seeing that he can make money in this matter, how would he know that he will lose his family and property? His wrists are no better than eunuchs. Even the youngest daughter was snatched away by tyranny, and she was so angry that she died on the spot.

It's just that Ms. Qi is a fierce person, and she has always been full of hatred. The first time she was pregnant with the baby, she beat the baby herself, and the second time she simply hurt Yuan Yuanwai's thing, and then threw it into the well.

With this money, Yuan Yuanwai opened three casinos in the city and outside the two passes, and thus made a fortune.

Originally, Feng Sanmen, who was so stupid and stupid, would be killed by God, but Yuan Yuanwai knew about it. Remembering that his family was also a cruel person when he was young, he gave him some money every month, and even recruited him to do it at home. A thug who does black work.

Feng Santan's Sanban is the name he got in the casino.

Within a few years, even the surname was changed to Yuan Sanmen.

Some time ago, Mr. Li and Tian Jin'an were besieging the city. The county magistrate Mr. Jiang called the gentlemen in the city to come out.

He Huchen drove away the thieves, and the county town had withdrawn its defenses, but He Huchen came back in a few days, and the county town was shaken, and the magistrate of Jiang County summoned the gentry again.

Not to mention, even though it is difficult to collect Liao pay in the county, the local apportionment county magistrate can only pay half of it if he comes to the door in person.

But when encountering this kind of thing, no matter if you want people or money, everyone is very positive.

And repeatedly asked: Oh, Jiang's parents must not let Qingyangwei's soldiers come to defend the city, defend the city, we Heshui children will bear it all!

Thinking of the disgusting look of Yuan Yuanwai saying this in front of Jiangxian Taiye with a cane, Yuan San, who moved a recliner and sat in the gate of the city gate shaking cattail fans to dry his feet, raised his head and throat, let out a mouthful of thick phlegm, and tilted his head to the side Stretching out, he spat on the ground.

"Fucking shit!"

The bad old man said that he would try it out with the newly bought six-bedroom concubine, and let his mother, a [-]-year-old disabled man with a broken leg and missing fingers, come to defend the city, and he would be a fucking sun.

You old woman thief, why don't you try it at the city gate, and let the third master have a look at it.

What's the point of guarding the city gate this year?
Yuan San thought sullenly: Those who came were either refugees or hungry people. All the beggars were dirty and smelly. It was disgusting to deal with these bugs all day long.

Just at this moment, a sweaty Min Zhuang ran over the suspension bridge: "Third Master, a Qingyang Guard soldier is here, please don't leave!"

He slapped his palm: "How many people?"

"On a!"

Yuan San turned up from the reclining chair sullenly, showing a complicated expression of frowning at the same time, stretched fiercely, and quickly walked forward.

Isn't this happy thing coming!
There was a long queue on the suspension bridge. Dozens of ragged refugees and hungry people were waiting on Beichuan Bridge, many of them were old acquaintances.

These people are all beggars who came out of the mountains, and they come to Dongguan every now and then to try their luck, as if they have a living in the city.

Yuan San cast a dull glance at the team, and then at the mountain to the east. This mountain is very hateful.

Without this mountain, these dirty and smelly bugs would all starve to death.

Once the gate of the city is closed, even if the sky outside falls apart, Heshui City is as solid as gold!
At the front of the line, there was a thin flag soldier wearing a patched military uniform, riding on a big-bellied horse that was even thinner than him, waving a letter anxiously: "I want to enter the city, this is a letter to your magistrate, come out!" Big deal!"

"Who is the letter for?"

Frowning sullenly, Yuan San jumped up from behind, stretched out his hand to take the letter, and listened to the Banner Army say: "Commander Qingyangwei..."

"Where did your grandpa come from?" Yuan San felt relieved when he heard Qingyang Wei's words, and raised his hand and cursed: "Ha, you old plague-stricken hozen, get on a horse and pretend to be a man for a while. Hui didn't recognize it, whoever helps me remove that dick face, the county magistrate has ordered that a thief and a dog are not allowed to enter the city."

After being stopped for a long time, Banner Army was already impatient, but he was humiliated for no reason. He was immediately scolded stupidly, and he didn't even bother to return his words. Said: "I am the Qingyang Guard Banner Army, not a thief!"

"The county magistrate also said that half a dog can be released, but the flag army cannot."

Before Qi Jun could speak back, Yuan Sanmen stretched out his hand above his head.

This hand squeezed and made a movement of opening and closing. Yuan San waved his hand with a sullen face and annoyed. Hehe, his throat was filled with thick phlegm. He stretched his arms and pointed to the west: "Quickly grab the bird's beak! Fly back to the bird's nest and enter your mother." Go, the city will not let you enter!"

Yuan San scolded angrily, turned around and waved his hands to the left and right, saying: "A commander with a big egg, he manages as many soldiers as a dick... Get out before you can count, and kill the hungry people on the spot."

Banner Army was so humiliated that his face turned red and then pale. He tried to slash people with his knife five times, but he dared not, and he didn't dare to keep it any longer, so he had to steer his horse away from the suspension bridge.

Before leaving, he shouted: "You lame dog, the letter must be given to Jiang Zhixian!"

In Qingyang, no one is afraid of Qingyangwei.

Even the big households were not afraid of Qingyangwei before the rebellion.

In Qingyang Prefecture, there is a thousand-household guard station in Huanxian County. Qingyang Guard stationed a thousand households in Qingyang, and the rest of the main force was stationed in Ningzhou.

Some time ago, this thousand households lost some people, and the remaining people fought three battles with Han Chaozai and won one battle, so there were not many people left.

The main force stationed in Ningzhou disappeared.

There are many fields in Ningzhou, with millions of acres of land. However, because Li Siqi fought in Ningzhou at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, he was doubled by Emperor Taizu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang.

Other places charge [-] cent and [-] cents, but this place charges [-] cents and [-] cents. In the Wanli year, they were levied a few percent more in a daze.

Since the fourth year of Hongwu, there has never been a year in which the summer tax and autumn grain can be collected.

In other places, when there is a drought or flood, the refugees all go to Ningzhou because there is a lot of land;

People in Ningzhou have been running elsewhere since the early Ming Dynasty, and have been running until now because of high taxes.

The drought was already fatal, and Lord Wanli and Lord Chongzhen raced to add more pies, and they all exploded in one fell swoop.

The commander of the Qingyang Guard did not have as many people in charge as Yuan San.

Before he had gone far, there was a bang on the river bank and a scream from the war horse. He didn't know whether he sprained his foot or was really hungry and had no strength. He fell heavily on the ground and slid a long way.

Everyone on the bridge was stunned, Yuan Sanmen was the first to react, he clenched his fists, jumped up and down and shouted loudly: "Bugs, the horse is dead, eat the horse!"

I don't know which hungry people started it, and everyone stomped and ran in the direction where the flag army fell. For a moment, the flag army surrounded by the horses was so frightened that they drew their knives and tried to chop, but they couldn't scare the hungry people away.

Seeing that they were about to be surrounded, the Banner Army had no choice but to flee in embarrassment. The hungry people behind them looked like a pack of wild dogs, digging out their hands and biting their teeth, and devoured the still-dead horses alive.

Seeing Yuan Sanmo laughing with his hips on the other side of the suspension bridge.

It's not that he's not afraid of the commander of the Qingyang Guard, in fact, he's afraid even if the general banner comes, so it would be better if the hungry people can kill this banner army.

He just had no fear and was sure that the city would not let any official troops into the city.

But having said that, it's okay to let go. If the hungry and crazy officers enter the city, he may die first, but there must be those masters who will be buried with him.

Yuan San was bored... he felt very strange.

There is nothing wrong with being alive, eating and drinking enough, but I see these things every day.

It's not that he wants to help others or pity and sympathize, he doesn't want others, but what he sees every day makes him realize that he won't get better either.

All his life, Yuan Sanmen wanted others to call him Master Feng, but what if he became Master Feng?

Yuan Sanmo would be killed by the hungry officers or thieves.

Master Feng would also be killed by hungry officers or thieves.

He even thought about getting the last sum of money, a large sum of money, and taking a group of Shaanxi boys under his command to escape to other places, but after inquiring all over, the sky is high and the earth is thick, and there is no place where there is no war or chaos.

It's very annoying, like living in Water Margin, it's not about happiness and hatred, it's not about doing evil.

Rather, he was born in a strange era, saving a person without accumulating any karma, and killing a person without adding half a karma.

Big man, little man, big smart, big fool, the ending is the same.

Very angry, but I don't know who to seek revenge, very boring.

He's just tired of living.

"Third Master, look at that."

Yuan Sanmo glanced at Min Zhuang's arm, and saw that there were still many people on the suspension bridge. These people were not hungry people, they might be refugees, and they were not hungry enough to eat raw meat anyway.

There were four people inside, a toothless old servant, a crooked old lady, and two women, one with a slim white lotus and the other with a black beauty.

But the details are so beautiful, Yuan Sanmo's eyes only saw the shoes from bottom to top, and stopped looking up.

Going out to this poor country these days, a woman whose shoes are not much soiled and whose skirt is still not dirty is not someone he can look at.

He walked towards the toothless old servant, with a smile on his face: "The old man looks very good, I don't know why you came to the small county?"

The old man handed over a guide, which stunned Yuan Sanmen. He has guarded the city gate for more than ten days, but he has never seen a guide.

"Scholar, come here!"

Under the city gate, a scholar in green shirt wearing glasses walked out lazily, and when he saw the woman on the suspension bridge, his pace was a little faster.

In fact, Bai Liuxi and Yun Jiaoyue have not recovered from Yuan Sanmen's series of swear words earlier, let alone the sudden change of "the old man looks very good".

Then I saw a scholar with glasses coming forward, smiling idiotically and cupping his hands: "You two ladies are very polite, Xiaosheng..."

"Hey, you stupid bastard, you bastard, you're so loud." Yuan San raised his hand and patted Lu Yin into the arms of the scholar, "Hurry up and show this old man Lu Yin!"

The scholar didn't dare to disobey, and started to lead the way with annoyance on his face: "Huanxian, Lehu, four people, the secretary Liu Er, the seal is good; the seal of Qingyang Mansion is also correct, the secretary Yang Ding... Chen of Qingyang Mansion What about the book office?"

Hearing that it was Lehu, Yuan San looked up with dull eyes, and looked at his figure, which was quite good.

"Don't interrupt, old man." He dropped his honorific title and only raised his hand and said, "I have to check your luggage."

With a clang, he pulled the handle of the soft knife away, and the blade rattled.

A small snake spear four feet five inches long, after all, with such a long blade, it is not easy to start with, but the material does not feel good, and it is not a weapon.

With a lot of costumes and props for acting, Yuan Sanmo took out more than a dozen Wen Tongbao, threw them back, and compared Zhang Fei's fake beard on his face, which was not as lush as his.

The only thing that could be called a weapon was a four-foot-five-inch long stick. After asking, it was said that it was Yang Paifeng's prop.

Without bows, crossbows and muskets, two little girls with a bunch of toys are not at all vigilant.

Yuan San asked dully: "Who did you accept to come to Xiaoxian to play Zhang Fei?"

"Deyuelou Shopkeeper Hong."

"Fourth Hong? Xiucai, you sent the two young ladies to the courtyard in the north of the city. Now that the city is in chaos, don't let the young ladies get lost in the city."

Hearing this, Bai Liuxi and Yun Jiaoyue looked at each other with fear on their faces and surprises in their eyes.

The old servant and the old lady turned pale with fright, the old servant took out a few coins and stuffed them to Yuan Sanmo, and hurriedly said: "My lord, hold your hands high, I wait for the Lehu people to be kind..."

"You old man, you praised you for your good looks, and you actually sent grandpa four qian silver. You really can't see that your wild donkey father is at least four feet tall at the shoulders?"

Yuan Sanmo said that when he changed his face, he changed his face. He sprinted forward, grabbed the old servant's waist and lifted his mouth, slammed towards the bridge railing, and threw him into the river with a slamming sound. "Does your wife also want to go down to cool off?"

The old lady was so frightened that she took several steps back and tripped herself.

Almost at the same time, the helpers behind him jumped up and grabbed Bai Liuxi Yunjiaoyue, and then the two of them pushed and shoved with their luggage, and escorted the second daughter into the county town with the scholar.

They entered Heshui through the urn city at the east gate, headed north along the base of the city wall, and walked up the stone road in the mountains.

Unexpectedly, the two girls were busy looking at the city wall and the surrounding courtyard walls, and didn't care to talk to him at all.

Just listen to the scholar say: "Don't be afraid, two young ladies, the mountains in the north of the city have always been desolate, and no one will listen to you when you shout, and no one will care if you listen to them. Don't make trouble for anyone. Xiaosheng is not a vulgar person like Yuan Sanmo. Serving the brothers is comfortable for a few days, maybe I will let you go if I am happy."

Looking at the surrounding courtyard, Bai Liuxi wondered, "Can't you hear me? There are so many families around here."

"They all fled to famine. There are many courtyards, but there are actually no one. If you don't believe me, take a look." The scholar shouted at the top of his voice, "Help!"

Indeed no response.

Bai Liuxi and Yun Jiaoyue looked at each other, both relieved, she stopped and let out a sigh of relief: "It's fine if you can't hear me, you called early."

The scholar had just turned forward, and was turning his head wonderingly after hearing her words, when he saw Bai Liuxi flying up, a fist getting closer and closer to his face.

With a bang, the glasses were blown away, and the face that had just turned around was slapped back, making stares appear in his eyes.

Before the helper carrying the luggage could react, she asked Yun Jiaoyue to reach out and take away the four-foot-five-inch snake spear. The clumsy snake spear with a foot-long iron head was as light as a wooden pole in her hand. Take them down one by one.

There is not even a chance to cry father and mother.

The scholar was beaten until his head was covered, and the girl only heard one sentence: "Yunniang, my sister said that this scholar is not a good person, and a good person can't afford glasses."

Then the waist was tightly strangled backwards, the whole person soared into the air, looked at the sky first and then at the ground, and hit the ground heavily with his head down.

Yun Jiaoyue dragged one leg with one hand, and dragged the two of them on the stone road, leaving two blood marks.

I went to the courtyard wall and tiptoed to look inside. It was true that no one had grown spider webs, so I worked together with Bai Liuxi to throw three corpses into the courtyard across the wall.

The two men carefully wiped the blood on the ground with their costumes, sprinkled the loess, and threw the dirty clothes and weapons into the courtyard. They picked up the short knives, turned over and entered the courtyard, and stabbed the corpse a few more times.

After finishing all this, the two girls clapped their hands: "Entering the city went smoothly than expected, and the five hundred shi of grain earned will wait until night!"

　Good morning!
