Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 403 Wasting food and throwing it out

The middle-aged shopkeeper took his wife and children less than five miles out of the city, and the three strong men who escorted him became ill-intentioned and wanted to kill him and rob him of his property.

The shopkeeper yelled in horror: "What do you want to do? I am your boss. You eat my clothes, wear my clothes, and still have evil intentions. Are you still human? You are not as good as animals!"

One of the strong men sneered and said, "You are indeed our boss, but that was in the past. To be honest, we have tolerated you for a long time. The three of us worked hard for you, but you still often scolded us and deducted our wages." .You don’t have a tavern now, and you have become a bereaved dog. At this moment, you are still playing with us as the owner of Pu’er. You don’t know how to write dead.”

After speaking, the strong man drew out his knife and was about to kill.

The shopkeeper's woman screamed in fear: "Help me. Someone come save us!"

The three strong men laughed.

"Just shout. It's five or six miles away from the county seat, and there are no villages or shops behind. Even if you shout out your throat, no one will hear you."

Just now.

A voice came: "Stop."

"Who?"

The three strong men are doing bad things, and there are ghosts in their hearts.Suddenly a person appeared, and their hairs stood on end in fright.

At some point, Qin Zhiyong stood behind them.

By the moonlight, the middle-aged shopkeeper recognized Qin Zhiyong.

He immediately knelt down at Qin Zhiyong's feet and shouted loudly: "Master County, help, help. I am willing to give you all my family property."

Qin Zhiyong said: "If I knew today, why bother. I don't lack your family's money. The order I want is the rules. If you don't follow the rules, you will be punished. You still dare to abscond in fear of crime? It's really brave. "

The middle-aged shopkeeper didn't know that they were always within the range of Qin Zhiyong's spiritual perception, and their every move was under Qin Zhiyong's control.It is easier said than done to escape.

Within the range of Qin Zhiyong's perception, no one can be killed.Even if someone wants to commit a crime and kill himself, he must be executed according to the law.

If it weren't for the three strong men who wanted to kill people, Qin Zhiyong wouldn't have come so early.

The middle-aged shopkeeper cried, "My lord, I know I was wrong."

The strong man with the knife stared at Qin Zhiyong, and said sternly, "Master County Magistrate, I know you know martial arts, but I have a knife in my hand. If you are sensible, give us the treasurer's money and let us leave Guobei County. Otherwise, Don't blame us for killing you, the county magistrate."

Qin Zhiyong said: "If you dare to kill the court officials, you are not afraid of being wiped out of the nine clans? I will not talk nonsense with you. Everyone will return to the city with me. Tomorrow, I will slowly punish you."

Several people immediately obeyed Qin Zhiyong's words, and they were all hypnotized.

morning.

The whole county became lively.

The middle-aged shopkeeper and three strong men were escorted by a prison car, and their crimes were clearly written on the wooden sign on the prison car.

Qin Zhiyong wanted to parade them through the streets, to tell the people of the entire Guobei County, to frighten Xiaoxiao.

Sure enough, after this incident, people in the entire county began to behave themselves.Even if some merchants still deceive customers, they dare not do so blatantly.

Because of the presence of Qin Zhiyong in Guobei County, the situation in the entire county is changing for the better.

As long as the people are gradually changing, Qin Zhiyong feels that everything he does is worthwhile.

…………

Lan Ruo Temple.

Nie Xiaoqian told her grandma what she had investigated in the county, including Qin Zhiyong's identity.

Grandma was angry and growled.

Xiaoqing stood beside her grandma, feeling a little scared in her heart.

Like Nie Xiaoqian, she was once a human girl, and the county magistrate is considered a high official to Xiaoqing.

The county magistrate of Guobei County is an expert who knows magic and Qimen Dunjia. Xiaoqing is a ghost, but her way of thinking is still human.

The idea that people don't fight with officials has been deeply ingrained in Xiaoqing's heart.

It's not surprising that she is afraid of Qin Zhiyong.

Nie Xiaoqian said: "Grandma, Qin Zhiyong said that as long as grandma doesn't kill people, he won't come to trouble grandma."

Grandma sneered and said, "The words of human beings are untrustworthy. The words of the county magistrate are even more untrustworthy. I will report this matter to the old black mountain demon, and I must not let him go."

Xiaoqing suddenly asked: "Sister Xiaoqian, you said that Qin Zhiyong is so powerful, why didn't he kill you? Those who practice all say that humans and ghosts have different paths, and there is no balance between good and evil. When we see us, we will cast down demons and eliminate demons." .”

Up to now, Xiaoqing is still sowing discord, competing with Nie Xiaoqian for favor.

Nie Xiaoqian said: "Qin Zhiyong deliberately asked me to come back and give a message to grandma. Qin Zhiyong's martial arts and Taoism are both extraordinary and holy. It is easy for him to kill me. Killing me is meaningless to him."

Only after getting in touch with Qin Zhiyong can one know how easy-going he is.Nie Xiaoqian actually wanted Qin Zhiyong to win, and if her grandma died, then she would be free.

Grandma said: "Okay, you two calm down. Now that the enemy is in the face, it is not the time for internal strife. I will go to see the old demon of Montenegro."

………………

It has been almost ten days since Xiahou came to Guobei County, but he couldn't find Yan Chixia's whereabouts, so he felt a little impatient.

Because there is also a master Qin Zhiyong in the city, Xia Hou can't concentrate on looking for Yan Chixia.

Xiahou decided to compete with Qin Zhiyong first.

Look for Yan Chixia, and talk about it later.

With a decision in his heart, Xia Hou rushed to the county government immediately, he couldn't wait for a moment.

Xiahou broke into the Yamen directly.

"Who?" Master asked loudly.

Master doesn't understand martial arts.

Xiahou didn't take him seriously, snorted coldly and said, "Let Qin Zhiyong come out. I, Xiahou, want to compare swords with him."

Qin Zhiyong came out and said solemnly: "Xiahou, this is the county government office, where you work. You just broke in, do you still have the court in mind? I told you before that Guobei County respects the rules. place. Do you want to find death?"

Xiahou laughed: "Qin Zhiyong, I, Xiahou, have traveled all over the world. I haven't seen anything? You are a small county magistrate, so you don't need to use your status to scare me. If it weren't for your martial arts skills, let me give you a high look, you think I will come The county government is looking for you? I originally came here to compete with Yan Chixia and win the title of the best sword in the world. Since I met you first, I will compete with you."

What Xia Hou said was arrogant enough, he didn't take anyone seriously, he was a lawless guy.

Using martial arts to violate the ban refers to people like Xiahou.

Qin Zhiyong nodded and said, "You want to compete in martial arts, right? All right. Then you make a move. I'll let you do three tricks."

Xia Hou frowned, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes: "Look down on me? You want to die!"

For a swordsman like Xiahou, fame and face are the most important.

Clang!
Xiahou drew his sword straight away, and stabbed at Qin Zhiyong with the momentum of the fusion of human and sword.

Qin Zhiyong avoided it easily: "The first sword. Please use the second sword!"

The combination of human and sword is very powerful, but for Qin Zhiyong, this level is a bit low.To threaten Qin Zhiyong, Xia Hou's skill is not enough.

The second and third swords also did not touch Qin Zhiyong's clothes.

Qin Zhiyong said: "Three tricks have passed, it's my turn."

Qin Zhiyong slapped Xia Hou limply on the ground with just one palm and lost his fighting power.

"Master, find two yamen servants and throw this swordsman out of the county yamen." Qin Zhiyong said to the master, "A person like him is not worthy of death. If you put him in prison and take care of his food, it will waste food. Limit him to three days Within a few days, leave Guobei County. Otherwise, I will see him beat him once."
