A knife in love

Chapter 2441
As soon as the man's voice fell, a woman said in a trembling voice: "Xiaoqi, the old woman just listened to your words, so she wanted to sneak home and take care of your fourth grandfather. If the yamen's tolerance arrests us quickly, chop us up The old lady's head was all killed by you. In the Palace of the King of Hades, the old lady is not willing to give up with you."

Li Qiufeng heard that the woman's voice was very old, and thought to himself that this old lady was the fourth grandma that the man just mentioned.When he was thinking about it, he heard the man who had spoken before whispered: "Fourth grandma, I am your nephew, how can I push you into the fire pit? Grandpa Fan's life is at stake. If you don't go back, he will have to die." You must starve to death. The big and small officials in the yamen only want to exploit our money, and they don’t know how many excuses they made up to seize our money. This time, when they say that the robbers want to attack the city, nine times out of ten they are trying to build the city. They want to cheat money from the court. These dog officials don’t care about the life and death of ordinary people, if they don’t want to be tossed to death by them, they can only find their own way to sneak away.”

After the man finished speaking, another woman said hesitantly: "The one who spoke to us today is Mr. Jiang. He is always fair and will not harm us. If there are robbers who attack the county, we will be sorry for our neighbors by sneaking away like this." Right house."

As soon as the woman's voice fell, the man spat and said aggressively: "The old lady's family has long hair and short knowledge! If Jiang is a good person, how can he be safe in the yamen for more than ten years? I saw that Jiang was a hypocrite, he said he was beautiful, but in fact he didn't do many good things. Hmph, Mr. Pan and He Butou are two big villains, but the word "bad guy" is engraved on their faces. When we saw these two villains, we took precautions, so they couldn't easily harm us. Jiang is much more cunning than Master Pan and Catcher He, I don't think this guy is a good guy."

Li Qiufeng's heart trembled when he heard the man's words, he thought to himself that this man must not be a scholar because of his rude and sloppy words, but he said a few plain words, which were very reasonable.Master Jiang talked about benevolence, righteousness and morality, which was a little artificial.And indeed, as the man said, if Mr. Jiang is really an honest gentleman, and Li Zhixian, Mr. Pan and He Butou are all corrupt officials, how can Mr. Jiang be allowed to work under their noses?I'm afraid Master Jiang was killed by Li Zhixian and others after he had been in the yamen for a few days.

In fact, when those few people spoke, they were afraid of being overheard, so they kept their voices extremely low.If ordinary people were passing by, they would not be able to hear their voices at all.It's just that Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan's martial arts are not weak, and their internal skills are superb, so they can hear what those people said clearly.Murong Danyan was quite depressed when he heard these people talking, thinking to himself that these people are all the people who escaped from the south of the city.Sure enough, as Brother Li said, if the people who built the city were not strictly controlled, they would sneak away and the city wall would be difficult to build.But these common people have difficulties at home, if they don't sneak back home, their relatives will be in great danger, but it's no wonder they are unwilling to contribute to building the city.It would be too harsh to blame them.

Li Qiufeng heard what those people said, and knew that there would be police patrolling soon.Although he is not afraid of the police, the most important thing right now is to deal with the Fusang army. If there is a conflict with the police, he will definitely miss a big deal.Thinking of this, Li Qiufeng dragged Murong Danyan and groped to retreat to the left, not wanting to collide with the night watchman.It happened that there was a very narrow passage between the two houses, Li Qiufeng led Murong Danyan to shrink into the passage, intending to wait for the night watchman to pass by before leaving quietly.

After about half a stick of incense, I could only hear the sound of Beishou's boots, as if several people came over.Murong Danyan was anxious when he heard the people on the opposite side still whispering, and thought to himself that the arresters who were watching the night had already arrived, why didn't these people keep silent?If they are caught and found out soon, not only will these people not be able to escape, but they may even be killed.

The more Murong Danyan thought about it, the more anxious he became, and he was thinking about how to secretly send a message to let these people escape, but he heard footsteps getting closer and closer, and he and Li Qiufeng were only five or six feet away.Murong Danyan was worried, and was thinking of rushing out to defeat the police and save the people from the fire and water, when the whispering on the other side suddenly disappeared, and there was no sound in the surroundings except for the approaching footsteps.

Murong Danyan's heart trembled, and he thought to himself, could it be that there are martial arts masters among the common people, and when they heard the arresters approaching quickly, this made the common people stop making noise?It's just that she thought about it, these people have never practiced martial arts, so they are not as good-sighted as she and Brother Li, and can hear footsteps from a distance.It wasn't until the policeman got close that the common people realized that someone was approaching, and hurriedly stopped their voices, and the surroundings became completely silent.Thinking of this, Murong Danyan finally put his heart back into his stomach, pricked up his ears, and listened to the police.

After a while, torches were lit on the north side, and the sound of chaotic footsteps was getting closer.Not long after, under the light of the torches, seven or eight arresters walked over with torches in their left hands and steel knives or water and fire sticks in their right hands.These policemen all looked haughty and talked loudly as they walked.I only heard one of them say in a rough voice: "Let's go again, there will be nothing to do tonight. After returning to the Yamen to do business, let's go to the Pingshe Building to have a drink together, and then have fun with Wu Shiriniang. I don't know what you guys think?"

As soon as the man finished speaking, several people started laughing and cursing.One of them took a sip and said with a sneer: "Ren Daba, you bastard speaks nicely, every time you go to Pingshe Building to drink flowers and wine, you are the one who drinks the most, but when you pay the bill, you Either you go to the toilet, or you drink unconscious, and you don’t have to pay for it a few times. If you want to go to the Pingshe Building to drink and spend money tonight, you pay the money first, and then go with us. Gubao will let you This bastard has enough to drink."

Just after this person finished speaking, another person said: "Master Jiang told us that there are pirates who are going to attack Dongliao County in the past few days, and he told us to be careful. Even after the night patrol, we are not allowed to leave the yamen and obey orders at any time. Ren Daba, don't act recklessly, if you offend Mr. Jiang, if he strips you of your soapy clothes, what else do you have to support your family?"

After hearing what the man said, Ren Daba sneered, and then said viciously: "What is the surname Jiang? He is just a small teacher, and he is not treated by the county magistrate at all. Why should we catch the head?" If you don’t want to talk to him, why should you take his words to heart? Right now, the county magistrate, He Tutou, and Master Pan are not in the city. There are no tigers in the mountains with the surname Jiang. When the master and the others come back, the one surnamed Jiang must be in bad luck. I don’t believe that the one surnamed Jiang will be supervising work in Nancheng tonight, and won’t go home and sleep with his wife in his arms!”
