The heavens start from saving Daming

The process of inviting tea and chatting with the prefect of Jizhou was very easy.

Especially when Li Yunze sent several heavy gold bars as a thank you gift, the magistrate was very enthusiastic.

He also said that he would write to the imperial court to ask Li Yunze to come to Jizhou to help suppress the bandits.

The biggest banditry in Jizhou is naturally Yinmachuan.

After getting the magistrate's promise that all the thieves in Baoen Temple would be dealt with severely, Li Yunze declined the magistrate's invitation to host a banquet, saying that there was an urgent matter in the west of Beijing, and he would hurry back immediately.

At this time, Yang Xiong stepped forward to express his opinion, saying that people go to high places and water flows to low places.I have a close relationship with the governor of the capital, and if I want to seek the post of magistrate in Yuncheng County with his help, I also ask the magistrate to complete it.

The prefect of Jizhou and Yang Xiong were also acquaintances, after receiving Li Yunze's affirmation, he immediately let him go and offered Yang Xiong a sum of money.

After some evasion and thanks, Yang Xiong took the document transfer order and sued himself, bid farewell to the magistrate and left with Li Yunze.

Back in the mansion, Yang Xiong dismissed the servants to pack their luggage, hired a carriage to carry Pan Qiaoyun and maid Ying'er, asked Gongsun Sheng to be the driver, and left Jizhou City with Li Yunze's horse guards.

Everyone headed east all the way, preparing to take the Grand Canal south to the west of Beijing.

There are no refrigerators these days, and there are no large-scale logistics channels.

The shopkeeper walked over directly, "I'll go to your place to sleep, your boy will sleep in the firewood room tonight!"

Skillfully weighing the silver tael in his hand, the shopkeeper's spirit immediately glowed.

Gongsun Sheng drew his sword and nodded vigorously.

"So that's it." Li Yunze nodded, "Go and rummage through those people, find the treasures and give them to the old man to push the cart away. Then dig a big hole in the woods beside you and bury all these criminals." gone."

As soon as the words were finished, Li Yunze had already stuffed a piece of silver into his hand.

Leaving the bustling place out of the city, and walking to an intersection surrounded by dense forests more than ten miles outside the town, I saw a fight going on here.

Then it can only be chicken, duck and fish.

Gongsun Sheng, who was sitting across from him, asked doubtfully, "What's wrong?"

"If you want to slaughter them, go ahead! Go to the town tomorrow and buy ten of them!" the shopkeeper scolded, "And my rooms have been carefully cleaned and replaced with new bedding for the guests. "

Afterwards, he helped dig a hole in the nearby woods when he was exhausted and out of breath. After disposing of all the ruffians, he panted and saluted Li Yunze, then hurriedly pushed the charcoal cart away.

Looking at the smile on Li Yunze's face, Yang Xiong subconsciously felt a chill in his heart.

Of course, only for ordinary people.The dignitaries and heroes are not included here.

As for sheep, they are something only the nobles can afford, so naturally such towns don't raise them.

'woo~~~'

"I..." Before he could finish his sentence, Li Yunze had already put the reins in his hands. "For the time being, I will be a personal soldier with this general, and we will talk about the follow-up when we go to the battlefield. You, Shi Xiulu, can only save one person when you see injustice. , When encountering such a thing today, even I have to get involved. Following this general is the real way to save the common people in the world!"

The leader, a ruffian with stubble on his face and fierce eyes, raised the iron ruler in his hand and smashed it down on the man's head.

Li Yunze simply asked him, "Who are you? What happened here?"

Coming to the street, Li Yunze, who was hiding in the darkness, silently watched a group of bandits riding horses not far away scolding a few old men like the town's security chief.

But his companion was already limp on the ground, wet between his legs.

Shi Xiu looked at Li Yunze in a little surprise, seeing that the few of them didn't intend to get off their horses to help, so she turned around and went to work.

When Shi Xiu brought the horse over, Li Yunze got on the horse immediately, and rushed out of the courtyard with bow and arrow in hand and long knife in hand.

Still on the table, Li Yunze got up and told Yang Xiong, "Brother is here to protect the family, I'll go out and have a look."

The leading tax collector trembled and screamed, "We are imperial tax collectors!"

What's even more exaggerated is that the three tax collectors beside him are pointing and laughing triumphantly.

The shopkeeper hurried forward, rubbing his hands together with a smile on his face, and said, "Guest officer, it's already this hour, but there are no good wines and good dishes. As for the guest rooms, there are still a few rooms in the store."

"It doesn't matter if he's really that stupid." Li Yunze waved his hand indifferently. In the past, when he fought and conquered the city, the first thing he had to do was to clean up the ruffians in the city and those subordinate officials who had been passed down from generation to generation. He didn't care about it at all.

Yang Xiong laughed, and jokingly said, "Boy, you are lucky. This is Quan Qian. You are in command! Your martial arts and temperament, of course, are the most suitable for joining the army. Don't say more, just keep up." .”

Of course, this kind of township hotel will not have any mountain delicacies, not even cattle and sheep.

Amidst the sharp sound of piercing through the air, a sharp arrow roared and shot straight through the ruffian's neck!
The ruffian leader looked down at the sharp arrow that shot through his neck in disbelief, the iron ruler in his hand fell to the ground, and then fell directly to the ground.

After hearing the ins and outs, Li Yunze heaved a sigh of relief.

If it's just a few dozen riders, Li Yunze has nothing to be afraid of.

Shi Xiu, who hadn't read much, was immediately taken aback by the fool, looked at the rein in her hand, and silently led the horse to the backyard.

Shi Xiu, who hadn't recovered from her senses, followed in a daze, and came to a restaurant in a town ahead when the sky had already darkened, and then regained her senses.

It's just that they had never seen such a brave general like Li Yunze, he rushed directly to Deng Fei who had a pair of red eyes and was known by people in the Jianghu as the fiery-eyed Suanni.

While speaking, several people were already laughing and riding forward.

The old man selling charcoal was already stunned, but the man with the shoulder pole went forward to salute in a daze, "Thank you for your help."

Li Yunze, who was eating the chicken leg, suddenly stopped the movement of his hands and mouth, and looked at the door with a slightly concentrated expression.

Immediately, he rode his horse and accelerated forward, holding the long knife tightly in his hand, and went straight to the thief's head.

"There is a large group of cavalry approaching, at least fifty or more cavalry!"

Yang Xiong and Gongsun Sheng also thought that Li Yunze would fall, after all, he was a tax collector of the imperial court.

"It's the shopkeeper." A shop waiter responded, "That's a crowing rooster."

The general idea is that the property fees have not been paid in the past few months, and you are so old and immortal, are you tired of living?
"emmmmmm~~~ I thought it was an iron kite, and the eagle cavalry came. It turned out to be a group of bandits from Yinmachuan."

"Don't worry, since this Shi Xiu said that he will help when he sees a rough road, let's see if his words and deeds are consistent. If he can be cultivated, it is too wasteful for such a man to stay here to pick firewood, but follow me to the army middle."

Over there, Shi Xiu found out a lot of property from the tax collectors and local ruffians. Although he himself was a hard-working man who survived by collecting firewood, he didn't get any money from the property and gave it all to the old charcoal seller. .

Although the young man carrying the shoulder pole was extremely brave, he was no match for four hands with two fists. Seeing that he was at a disadvantage, he was beaten violently by the hooligans.

The talkative shop waiter asked, "The shopkeeper, where do you live?"

After entering the hotel, Li Yunze greeted immediately, "Bring all the good wine and good food, and give up all your bedrooms. I will stay overnight and leave tomorrow."

Yang Xiong couldn't see it, and was going to help, but was stopped by Li Yunze.

Li Yunze, holding the scabbard, came to the yard. The road in the town not far away was already screaming, and there were lights and shadows of constantly shaking torches everywhere.

Unexpectedly, Li Yunze didn't even bother to answer the words, so he let go of his hand, and three sharp arrows roared out, directly shooting the three tax collectors to the ground.

"I see." Yang Xiong suddenly nodded and said, "Being able to have a future with my brother is naturally more promising than picking firewood here. Let's see how his character is."

Several rounds of arrows rained down, and all the hooligans and hooligans fell to the ground with arrows.

"The good people in the world suffer so much, and the reason is that these wicked people are rampant." Li Yunze, who finally surrendered his bow, smiled slightly, and responded casually, "It's not that troublesome to deal with the wicked. If you kill one, you will lose one, and you will be wiped out."

After thanking Shi Xiu, he helped Shi Xiu to lift up his charcoal cart and put back the spilled charcoal.

Pan Qiaoyun and her maid Ying'er looked at each other in blank dismay, they didn't understand what they were talking about, anyway they didn't hear anything.

He suddenly thought, if Li Yunze rescued him not in the city, but in this kind of deserted wild place, then
The life of kicking and killing Yang Zhangbao and others is really big enough!

"My name is Shi Xiu. I will give up my life to help when I see injustice, so I am called Desperate Saburo." Shi Xiu saluted and said, "The old charcoal seller pushed a charcoal cart to sell in Jizhou City, but he didn't want to be taken by the tax collector. A group of minions stopped him here and asked him to pay taxes. The old man said he had no money, and begged to go to Jizhou City to sell it before paying the tax, but these people overturned the old man’s charcoal cart on the spot and beat him. If you can't see it, come forward to help."

He waved to Shi Xiu, "Throw away all your firewood, carry your pole and follow us."

When Li Yunze raised his bow and arrow again, this time pointing his sharp arrow at those tax collectors, they finally came to their senses.

An old charcoal seller knelt beside an overturned charcoal cart and cried, and a young man was fighting with seven or eight hooligans wielding a shoulder pole.

"Brother. You." Yang Xiong turned pale with shock. He never expected that Li Yunze not only made such a ruthless attack, but would kill him as soon as he struck, and even dared to kill the tax collectors of the imperial court!

After all, cattle are strategic materials, and killing cattle and eating beef is a violation of the laws of the Song Dynasty and will be punished.

'Puff puff puff~~~'

"Shop."

Shi Xiu, who was still confused, suddenly felt that it was good to hang out with this general, at least the food was good.

The charcoal seller quickly came to his senses after being shocked and crying.

"Go to the backyard and bring the horse over." Instructing Shi Xiu to lead the horse, Li Yunze turned to look at Gongsun Shengyan and said, "It's enough for the Taoist priest to protect himself."

Shi Xiu and Yang Xiong were a little nervous, subconsciously thinking that the incident happened at that intersection during the day.

The chicken leg was stuffed into the mouth, and when it came out, only the chicken bone was left.

Shi Xiu was taken aback, "Where are you going?"

Yang Xiong is a little worried here, "Brother, if he confides the matter"

There was pig meat, but the shopkeeper didn't dare to mention it because he was afraid that some guest officials who looked like ordinary people would be angry.

There are many horses in the north, and the bandits in Yinmachuan also ride more horses.

Everyone turned their gazes to the road, where Li Yunze on horseback had already drawn his bow and arrow, and released three arrows with one arrow.

This sudden change made everyone on the scene stunned, as if they were frozen.

Turn around and run to the backyard, shouting loudly while running, "Hurry up, kill the chickens in the yard! And send all the eggs I saved these days to the kitchen!"

Braised big rooster, stewed old duck soup, copied egg dishes, and steamed delicious fish.

Paired with local soju, a few people gather around the table to eat with relish.

The horse thieves couldn't even see clearly where Li Yunze came from, they saw that their second village master had lost his head, turned over and fell off the horse.

Li Yunze was like a tiger in a flock of sheep, he rode his horse and galloped among the thieves, the sharp blades in his hands flew one after another, every time he made a move, some thieves would scream and fall off the horse.

After a few horse thieves who were so brave enough to rush forward failed to survive a round, all the rest immediately ran away.

Li Yunze put away the long knife, but took down the bow and arrow.

Chased all the way for several miles, and wiped out all the dozens of Yinmachuan thieves!
