stand back, let me come

Chapter 205 Chapter 205: Chaos in Xiaocheng City (45) 【Ask for a monthly ticket】

When the servants came back to report, Wu Yuan secretly said "there is a tacit understanding", and these people came to the door on their own initiative and saved him a lot of trouble.Who would have thought that when they saw people, they would all be crying and displeased, as if their ancestral graves had been swept clean.

Seeing this, Wu Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but mutter in his heart what kind of medicine these people sell in the gourd, and he had prepared himself mentally in advance.He was about to say a few words of pleasantries, and beat these people by the way, don't come here to touch his own bad luck at this time.

Before the belly draft started, one of them was already aggrieved with tears in his eyes, and stepped forward to appeal for grievances, hoping that the county government could lend them someone.

Wu Yuan still didn't know what happened.

He only heard the word "borrower".

He said: "Borrower? You all know the current situation. The rebels are stalking the outside of the city. We have reached the predicament of hanging swords on our necks. The troops in the city dare not slack off for a moment. Borrower... It's not because I don't want to, it's really Can't get enough of people..."

To deal with this kind of "lao Lai" who came to "borrow", the best way is to "repay the other with the same way".As soon as Wu Yuan changed into a distressed expression, he sighed: "I'm ashamed to say it, I was still thinking about it last night, whether I should have the audacity to borrow a private part of your family from the gentlemen..."

Saying that, I rolled my eyes in my heart.

A fool can figure it out with his toes, these elite private tribes under the gentry's family have already escorted the master's family out of Xiaocheng, leaving behind all crooked melons and cracked dates.Sent to the battlefield, the damage is better than scraping, purely to send warmth to the enemy, send a head, and give military merit.

Wu Yuan never counted on these people.

As soon as he said this, everyone who came to the door looked at each other in blank dismay.

At this time, one of them stood up covering his bruised eyes.Wu Yuan took a closer look, almost lost control of his expression and laughed out loud.But for many years, the expression management has been very good, so he held back abruptly, and showed a bit of "heartfelt" concern, and stepped forward to ask him.

"What are you—what's the matter?"

Half of his sleeve was burned to ashes, most of his goatee was gone, and his right eye was severely bruised.If you observe carefully, you will find that the bridge of his nose is more skewed than before, and the root of his nose is slightly blue, which is more pitiful and pitiful.

Wu Yuan's heart was greatly shocked-you must know that this is Xiaocheng, and these family gentry who are rooted here are local snakes!Even if the rebels approach the city, no one will not open their eyes to provoke them.What happened to them, how could they be so embarrassed?

The middle-aged man who was asked wiped his tears with half of his burnt sleeves, and cried out what had happened-at midnight last night, a group of mobs took advantage of their weak guards and rushed into their clan's land to plunder and plunder, injuring dozens of family members Guard, then walk away!

Wu Yuan said in horror: "The mob?"

The middle-aged man replied: "Yeah, it's all mobs."

Wu Yuan looked at the others again: "What about you?"

Others: "Same too."

"almost."

Wu Yuan then asked: "So——you came to report to the officials?"

The middle-aged man put away his crying expression, wiped away the remaining tears at the corners of his eyes, and twirled his half-burned beard: "That's right. We know that the county government is in trouble, but this time the loss is huge. If we can't catch that gang" Mob', what face do I have to gain a foothold in Xiaocheng and Sibao County in the future! I beg you to give us justice, and we must let the lawless people be punished!"

The corners of Wu Yuan's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself, "You old bastards don't have face."No matter how disgusted he was in his heart, he still couldn't show it on the surface, he said: "Listen to me, gentlemen, if you don't want to, it's really because..."

He still wanted to use the lack of manpower as an excuse to shirk.

Where can they solve the case and catch the thief at this time?
They also said it was a group of mobs who successfully robbed their property.If this can be achieved, there will definitely be no fewer people involved, and there should be warriors who are not weak, how can he catch them?
The middle-aged man took a deep breath.

Ask Wu Yuan: "So you don't want it?"

Wu Yuan raised his eyebrows: "What are you talking about? What do you mean by refusal? The relationship between you and me is like lips and teeth, and the lips are dead and the teeth are cold! But it is really powerless, and the soldiers who dealt with the enemy on the city wall can't be dispatched to deal with this matter Bar?"

The middle-aged man snorted coldly.

Ask Wu Yuan: "Do you know what was taken away?"

The more Wu Yuan listened, the more he felt that there was something in this person's words, and he felt a little angry.He is easy to talk on the surface, but it doesn't mean that these people can really push their noses.So, the response was a little more forceful, asking: "If you don't tell me, how do I know?"

The middle-aged man stared at Wu Yuan's face for a moment, not wanting to miss any strange expression, and said with a strange expression, "It's food!"

Wu Yuan's voice suddenly increased: "Food?"

How could it be such a coincidence?
He made up his mind to "borrow food", but their food was intercepted by the "mob" on the back foot.Wu Yuan couldn't help but glanced suspiciously at the crowd, secretly worried that they had set up his eyes and ears around him, and this eyes and ears were people he trusted quite.

These people in front of them didn't want to "borrow", so they directed and acted out a scene of "mob cutting food" by themselves, and even preemptively rushed to him and cried.

Wu Yuan's face turned green and pale inwardly.

He was already worried that his identity would be exposed.

If so-

He lowered his eyelids calmly, suppressing the killing intent in his eyes.

I'm afraid this person in front of me won't be able to stay!

The middle-aged man hadn't realized his dangerous situation yet, his fingers were shaking with anger, his molars were grinding and creaking, and he said in a strange way: "Yes. Not only my family, but all the granaries present were attacked by mobs! This is inevitable. What a coincidence! How could a group of 'mobs' know the location of each granary? Without unified command and dispatch, how could they act so quickly?"

This time, it was not only for the "borrower" to recover the losses, but also for testing. After all, the county government that was extremely short of food was also very suspicious.

Wu Yuan's face was gloomy.

For the first time in his life, he was suspected of being a thief.

"Speak directly, gentlemen, there is no need to beat around the bush! If you say something unpleasant, what does Xiaocheng have to do with me? It doesn't matter if the city gates are opened and the rebels surrendered, but it concerns the lives of you and the whole family! On this side of the county mansion, even if there is a shortage of food and people, it doesn’t bother you, does it? You are indiscriminate and framed by scoundrels, it’s really chilling!”

Although Wu Yuan was still young, getting angry made him a bit timid, and his attitude was even more frank and upright.

For a while, everyone looked at each other, unable to make up their minds.

He didn't dare to really anger Wu Yuan.It really annoys people, if they don't say anything about surrendering the city, they really have no place to cry.

The middle-aged man spoke softly to appease.

"Wulang, please calm down, I didn't mean it that way. It was because of the huge loss that I lost my composure... Please forgive me."

After finishing speaking, he bowed to the end.

Wu Yuan could only calm down his face, and walked down the steps.

The two sides can't tear their skins apart yet.

So, take a step back.

Wu Yuan wrote a few empty checks, promising to send someone to keep an eye on the whereabouts of the group of "mobs", and to let them know as soon as there is news - after all, there is such a group of "mobs" who can rob various granaries and pat their asses away "Influence, Wu Yuan is not at ease.

Is this different from an enemy sleeping on a hanging beam in the bedroom?

How big is the heart to be able to sleep?

After finally dismissing these people, Wu Yuan became more and more angry.

Wu Yuan received everyone, and Gu Chi was also listening in the back hall separated by a screen.As soon as they left, he came out from the back hall, his brows were still tightly knitted, which made his gloomy and weak face look even gloomy.His thoughts partly agree with Wu Yuan's.

The country gentry of these backgrounds came prepared!

Wu Yuan looked in the direction of the door, with a sullen face, put down the teacup with a snap, and asked, "Mr. Gu, what do you think about this?"

Gu Chi said: "The timing is too coincidental."

Wu Yuan asked again: "Mr. Gu also suspects there is an inner ghost?"

Gu Chi was about to answer "Yes",
At this time, Gong Cheng's heartfelt voice was approaching—although his heartfelt voice could not be expressed logically and completely, judging from the short and fleeting sentences, Gong Cheng was in a very good mood at this time—ten sentences, five praises How heroic, wise, smart and decisive the wife and brother are, the remaining five sentences are all praising the uncle as a warrior, how strong his strength is, and how he resembles his second uncle!
Gu Chi was dumbfounded.

Having spent so much time with Gong Cheng, it is rare to hear this former favorite who has become silent praise anyone from the bottom of his heart.Even for Wu Yuan, Gong Cheng's voice was mostly gratitude, or guilt that he was a burden and dragged down Wu Yuan.

Such generous compliments?

Wu Yuan hasn't received this kind of treatment yet.

Thinking of this, he looked at Wu Yuan with a hint of pity and sympathy—I don't know what Wu Yuan would think if he knew it?
The only one Gu Chi heard was Gong Cheng, but five people came in after Tong Bing, and the other four were Shen Tang, Chu Yao, Qi Shan and Gong Shuwu.Seeing this, Gu Chi sneered inwardly and curled his lips, very displeased that he was being targeted in this way.

You are stingy and don't listen to your heart at all.

As soon as Gong Cheng came in, he said, "Weng Zhi, good news!"

Wu Yuan softened his expression when he came in.

Picking up the tea, he asked puzzledly, "Where does the joy come from?"

He struggled all night before making a decision, but in the end, the baby was stillborn, and he was framed by a group of yin and yang.

Bad luck is dead.

Gong Cheng smiled and said, "Weng Zhi may as well make a guess?"

Wu Yuan said: "The rebels outside the city were smashed to death by the thieves from the sky?"

Gong Cheng shook his head: "How is this possible?"

If another thief star came to the world, it would still be able to destroy the power of tens of thousands of people. With the distance between the rebel camp and Xiaocheng, how could Xiaocheng be calm?Gong Cheng immediately stopped playing tricks, and happily revealed the answer: "The food and grass for the garrison in the city have been solved!"

After all, he sat down with a smile and poured himself a glass of water.

Before he could drink his tea, Wu Yuan gulped it out, choking and coughing.The latter seemed to think of something, Huo Di stood up from the spot, looked at Gong Cheng in horror, and asked, "What are you talking about???"

good guy-

The granary was looted by the "mob" on the front foot of the family gentry, and the food problem of the garrison on the back foot was solved. The fool could figure out that there was some kind of connection between the two, and what's more——Wu Yuan thought of a possibility, and asked: "Who were those last night?" 'mob'……"

Gong Cheng: "Don't worry Weng Zhi, hands and feet are clean."

Wu Yuan's mind buzzed chaotically.

This thing was actually done by Gong Cheng?
In this way, the group in the morning did not wrong him.

wrong--

There was no joy on Wu Yuan's face, but a slightly unnoticeable gloomyness—Gong Cheng acted without his consent at all, and did it without even informing him?This recognition made Wu Yuan feel a little bit of unhappiness in his heart, like a stick in his throat.

Even Gong Cheng can't make such a good claim.

Gu Chi was speechless at first, and then turned his gaze to Shen Tang who had been sitting obediently without saying a word——Shen Lang!
He knows much more inside information than Wu Yuan.

Not to mention other things, just say that Gong Cheng's education would not be able to do such a deviant, deviant, and shameless thing.

This is so shameless!
But Shen Tang was different.

Shen Lang's behavior is out of the ordinary, always unexpected, and there are plotters like Chu Wuhui and Qi Yuanliang who indulge (help) tolerate (Zhou) and do nothing (abuse) by his side, and powerful warriors like Gong Shuwu, who have no strength of their own Vulgar... huh, case solved.

Before Wu Yuan could ask, Gu Chi brought the topic to Shen Tang, and asked with a smile, "Is this Shen Lang's masterpiece?"

Shen Tang asked back: "So what?"

With Gu Chi's reminder, Wu Yuan suddenly understood.

He stood up, bowed solemnly to the end, and said sincerely: "Wu is here to thank the brave men for their righteous deeds on behalf of the tens of thousands of people in Xiaocheng."

Shen Tang: "Thank you? I'm just 'borrowing flowers to offer Buddha'."

Anyway, what was taken out was other people's food.

To put it more plainly, it means that those who eat thieves don't feel bad.

Wu Yuan said: "The strong man is highly righteous."

After some business bragging, everyone took their seats.

Wu Yuan showed curiosity, and said bluntly: "Wu has one more thing that I don't know. How did you manage to cut off the granary?"

In fact, he wanted to ask how many people in Shen Tang's district avoided his hands and committed this big case!Such a big event happened in the territory under his control, and he didn't know about it. It was a bit of a slap in the face, and Wu Yuan was in a bit of a crisis.

If Shen Tang's target was not the granary but him, wouldn't he die in a daze?
This is what Wu Yuan taboos the most.

However, Shen Tang couldn't hear the implication.

In other words, Shen Tang subconsciously did not place Wu Yuan as an equal opponent, so naturally he would not think about how to kill him.

Shen Tang took a sip of tea to moisten his throat - he stayed up all night last night, and now he is a little angry.

"It's not because I'm strong." She paused, and said with disgust, "It's clear that they are too weak, undefended, and almost have no decent defense and counterattack. At first I thought it was a scam."

Wu Yuan asked again: "The person pretending to be a 'mob'..."

If Gong Cheng surpassed himself and mobilized people to act without warning, he should seriously consider whether Gong Cheng can still use this card - who would use this kind of subordinate at ease?

Shen Tang replied: "It's not a disguise."

"no?"

Shen Tang: "They are 'mobs'."

To be precise, Shen Tang exchanged ten catties of grain for the thugs.

The low-level slums in Xiaocheng are full of cheap labor, and everyone is so hungry that they can risk their lives for a bite to eat.

For those who don't even patronize the rice vat, ten catties of grain is really a windfall!
It's worth taking a little risk.

They are responsible for confusing the enemy's sight, and what really works is the manpower arranged by their own side-it has to be said that high-level warriors are really good, and one person can be used by hundreds of people.

Shen Tang also began to look forward to his bravery.

Go out with hundreds of younger brothers!
Pull the wind, have the pomp!

　　Ah, the second day when the cat came to the house.

　　I took it out in the afternoon and cut my nails. The cat is too sharp. It was scratched yesterday. Although it has been vaccinated and it is a domestic cat, it is better to be on the safe side. Shiitake mushrooms went to vaccinate against rabies in the afternoon (I have to complain, the previous rabies vaccine was like 200 One more injection, now a course of four or five injections, a total of six or seven hundred.)
　　Today, I got a little familiar with the family and started to become lively.

　　Woohoo, having a cat is really fun.

　　Although it still doesn't let me touch it, when I code at night, it sits on the hollowed-out cabinet by the farmer's feet, looking at me eagerly, and stays for more than four hours.
