Chapter 251

"I am the newly-appointed magistrate of Yi County. If you and other unscrupulous people dare to rob the court officials in broad daylight, it is a capital offense to spread the word."

Third Master Xu dutifully said this in the Yi County dialect.

The big man in the lead was vicious at first, and when he heard that Luo Baisu was a court official, his face was a little hesitant, and he said something to the left and right, but he was shaken again when he saw the abundant supplies on the Luo family's mule cart. Said a few words left and right.

Ba Xun is a big place, with many mountains and many villagers on the mountains. Even if it is a state capital, different counties have different accents.Among the crowd, only Mr. Xu can speak the Yi county dialect.Third Master Xu could hear clearly, his face couldn't help but changed, and he said loudly, "Protect Grandpa."

Although Tang Zhi sent three servants to follow, they were just servants in the mansion who helped run errands. He had never seen a big battle before. A few surrounded the middle.Cheng Sheng fell down the hillside to search for Luo Mingdu again, Cheng Qing immediately made a decision, took Cheng Sheng's long spear, shook it, and shot at the leader.

The big man was actually quite nimble, and he dodged the shot. Even so, Cheng Qing's shot also annoyed him, so he raised his head and whistled, and rushed out of the forest a dozen times. a man.There was a period of chaos just now, and finally the mule cart loaded with supplies was tripped, and a few bags of rice tied on the cart fell out. The dozen or so people who jumped out suddenly were divided into several groups to look at the Luo family. Everyone went straight to the rice bags with glowing eyes.

Luo Tian cried secretly when he saw it.

Originally, she thought there were only five or six people, but she still thought that with Cheng Qing, plus her, Luo Baisu Zishu and the three servants of the Tang family, if they fought hard, they would have a chance of winning, so now they suddenly ran away With so many people out there, even if Cheng Qing is a trainer, he is no match for two fists.

She shielded Fang Shi behind her, and secretly held the dagger that the central guard in her arms gave her, thinking that if those people only wanted some rice, food and property, that would be fine, if they dared to kill others, she would die Pull two padded backs.

Third Master Xu anxiously stood beside him and said, "This is the grandpa of Yi County. You guys are so bold that you even dare to snatch people from the official family. You will die."

Perhaps he was too wordy, a man with a scarred face glared at him, thought he was standing beside the mule cart blocking the way, pushed him twice, and shouted: "It's the dog officer who robbed, anyway, their money It is also the people's fat and people's ointment for exploitation."

Mr. Xu was pushed twice, suddenly looked up at the person who pushed him, rubbed his eyes, couldn't help being surprised, and said in a broken voice: "Zhuzi, you are Zhuzi, Zhuzhu from Xujiazhai, I am your third uncle !"

The scar-faced man was also taken aback when he heard Third Master Xu yelling, and he said after a long time: "Uncle Third, didn't you go to Ba Xun and come here to do something?" He shouted to the people who came with him, "Don't fight, it's the third uncle."

"How did you end up in such a field and do such a thing? What about your old lady?" Xu Sanye said in surprise, "If you are arrested by the government, won't you implicate your old lady?"

The scar-faced man heard this, with a sad expression on his face: "My mother passed away the year before last."

"Ah?" Xu Sanye said in surprise, "Why did you leave?" Speaking of Zhuzi, his wife was 20 years younger than him, and his old bones were still alive, so why did she leave.

"That winter, it was very cold, and there was not much to eat at home. I was sick again. My old mother starved to death in order to save food. I had no choice but to follow up the mountain." Speaking of the tragic situation at that time, Rao Even this three-foot man couldn't hold back two lines of tears.

Mr. Xu sighed after hearing this, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Although Luo Tian couldn't understand what they were saying, it was clear that Mr. Xu and the bandit recognized each other. The two of them probably recognized relatives or something, but one of them looked sad and angry, and the other was very regretful. What kind of past events were they talking about? , in short, it will not be a pleasant past.

That Cheng Qing was one against six, even if he had a bit of boxing skills, he only had one hand after all, so he was soon at a disadvantage. He suffered several punches and knocked out a tooth. He stopped, left him, and went to Mr. Xu's side.

Both Xiang Lan and Luo Tian rushed over to help him up.Seeing his miserable face, Xiang Lan burst into tears, "Ah Qing, you're bleeding..."

Cheng Qing spat out a mouthful of blood and said, "It's nothing, just a skin injury."

Everyone gathered around, and Mr. Xu opened his eyes to take a look, his heart went cold.Among this group of bandits, he unexpectedly recognized quite a few of them from their village alone, and at the moment he was angry and anxious, and cursed: "Why did you go this way, what is the end of this? What? A man, as long as he has two hands, he is not afraid of suffering or tiredness, so he can do what he can’t support himself.”

He traveled all over the world back then, saw a lot of the world, and did some good deeds, so he had some prestige in the local area.When he scolded him like this, several men in the bandits, including the scar-faced man, bowed their heads in shame.

Of course, there were some who were not convinced, and said with a dull face: "Uncle San, we will keep in mind the kindness you did to the village when you were old, but if you pay back what you pay, it's them who are on this road." A dog official."

However, now is not the time to teach others, the most important thing is to keep Luo Baisu and his party safe.Thinking of this, Third Master Xu said again: "Zhuzi, the grandpas are good people, don't harm them."

He was really afraid that Luo Baisu would lose his life here, that's no joke.

Some people were furious: "As long as there is nothing good about being an official, it is not because of those corrupt officials that we have ended up in such a field. Why can't we even eat grassroots while they are well-clothed and well-fed. "After that, he raised his fist and wanted to beat Cheng Qing again.

"Stop..." Luo Tian was anxious and shouted loudly. At this time, he didn't care about the confrontation between officials and bandits, and said to Xu Sanye, "Xu Sanye, tell them that they only need food, and we will give it to him , Tell them not to beat people, Brother Cheng Qing is also a family member of a court official, if something good or bad happens, it will be difficult to explain it in the future."

Mr. Xu also knew the seriousness, so he hurriedly said to the scar-faced man: "Zhuzi, tell them to stop quickly, the little lady said, just take the food, don't beat people, it's hard to explain if you hurt someone, he Brother is a general, and he has soldiers under his command, don't cause trouble."

The scar-faced man hesitated a little. He just followed up the mountain when he had nowhere to go. On weekdays, he just followed the big guys to hunt on the mountain. The imperial court ordered officials.However, he also thought that they robbed the new county magistrate. If they let him go back, they might call the guards to search for people all over the mountain. If he is caught alone, it will be nothing more than a cheap life. However, among the people who came with him, there are still relatives living in the village. It would not be beautiful if they are troubled.

For a moment, the scar-faced man hesitated and was in a dilemma.

Luo Tian looked at his embarrassed look, and said loudly: "My father is the new county magistrate of Yi County. This Yi County is his jurisdiction. He is the parent official of Yi County. The people of Yi County are his responsibility. As long as they Take the food and leave, don't hurt anyone's life, I can make the decision, my father will not care about this matter."

After speaking, she tugged at the corner of Luo Baisu's clothes. Luo Baisu is not a pedantic and inflexible, affirming her statement.

Mr. Xu kept yelling "doing evil" several times, but he said what she meant again, and persuaded the scar-faced man a few words: "I have been with the grandfather for more than half a month on this journey, and the grandfather is close to you. The two of you are really different, they are good people, you can leave after you take the rice, it’s almost New Year’s Eve, it’s worth accumulating some bad virtue, otherwise your mother will not live in peace underground.”

The scar-faced man moved his lips and discussed with the two leaders.

So the bandits were also divided into two factions. One group was favored by Mr. Xu and was willing to take the rice and leave quickly. Although they hated corrupt officials, they did not want to offend the government casually unless it was absolutely necessary, let alone kill them. Well, for thousands of years, the government's deterrent power to the common people is still there.

The other faction believed that they had already lost face with the government anyway, and now that they robbed the newly appointed county magistrate, even if they were let go, Luo Baisu would still cause trouble if he turned around. No, but it's not always a good thing. It is advocated to simply kill people and throw the corpses into the mountains to feed the wolves, which saves trouble.

Third Master Xu's face turned pale.All the officials in the Ba Xun Mansion knew that he came with Luo Baisu, and that Mr. Tang followed them out of the city. Sheng was born in the military camp. Military generals are no better than civil servants. There are tens of hundreds of soldiers under his command. They killed people and hid in the mountains, but his family could not escape in Baxun. To implicate my daughter-in-law.

At the moment when they were discussing to the limit, they only heard a loud shout: "Bold and unreasonable, you dare to offend the court officials in broad daylight, what crime should you deserve?!"

It was Cheng Sheng who came back after protecting Luo Mingdu.

The two of them were also in a state of embarrassment, their heads and bodies were covered with dead branches and dirt.Luo Mingdu is better, but it's just a little dirty. Cheng Sheng's face, neck, hands, all exposed parts are full of scratches, some of which are still dripping with blood, and his outer clothes are also scratched and torn. Several openings were made, revealing the moon-white tunic underneath.

"Ah Sheng..."

"Elder Sister, Brother Cheng Sheng..."

Luo Tiandu was refreshed, the one with the highest fighting power returned, and it was no problem to deal with a few bandits.

Cheng Sheng saw his elder brother's face was bruised and swollen, and the corners of his mouth were still bleeding, he was furious, he picked up his spear, and beat the bandits indiscriminately.He came from a serious martial arts background. If he hadn't been slowed down by his strategy this year, let alone a champion in the martial arts exam, he would not be able to escape the top five.This group of bandits just relied on the large number of people, and they didn't even have serious weapons. No matter how they were his opponents, they were all knocked down in a short time.
