Han Dang is stronger

Chapter 11 Take turns staring
"Why should you be so afraid? It's just cutting your nails, not your head!"

Xiang Zhuang's voice was not loud, but it was obviously provocative. He looked at Feng Zhong with more fierce and fierce eyes. Rao Feng Zhonggui was the head of the Daqin Pavilion who was in charge of public security in the countryside, and he had seen him before. Quite a few aggressive and ruthless scoundrels couldn't help but feel their hair trembling at the sight of Xiang Zhuang's fierce eyes, and their bodies, which had already taken a step back, couldn't help but lean back slightly.

"What do you want to do?" A pavilion soldier jumped out to save the Lord, and while gesturing to block Xiang Zhuang with his body, he yelled loudly: "Xiang, do you know the Daqin Law Code, and beating the pavilion chief is a felony?"

"I don't know." Xiang Zhuang's answer surprised the pavilion soldier, and what surprised the pavilion soldier even more was that Xiang Zhuang immediately added, "But I know what it is to kill a pavilion chief. Change your life! If you can't catch it, you don't even need to change your life!"

Hearing this, the pavilion pawn's face suddenly turned pale, and Feng Zhong's heart skipped a beat. While holding on to the hilt of his sword, he pretended to be indifferent and asked, "Mr. Xiang, what do you mean by that?"

"It's not interesting." Xiang Zhuang refused to answer, and immediately changed the subject: "Feng, you seem to want to explain something to our brothers of the Xiang family. The night before yesterday you took people to search our house, but nothing was found. If you don't say it, it made our third aunt sick, what are you going to say?"

"I acted according to the law, and I took the two-foot version." Feng Zhong explained, and immediately forgot his suspicion that Xiang Bo's wife happened to be ill, and said: "As for your aunt, she is already ill, what has it to do with me?" relation?"

"My mother was almost recovered the night before yesterday, but after being frightened by you, she became seriously ill again!" Xiang You took the lead and insisted that Feng Zhong made his mother's condition worse-this is really not wronged Feng Zhong, but to put it lightly, because Xiang You's mother's illness was actually frightened by the people brought by Feng Zhong.

"It's none of my business, I'm doing business according to the law." Feng Zhong bit the bullet and defended, saying: "If you don't accept it, you can go to the county to sue me, and let the county punish me."

"Officials protect each other, you just know we can't sue you, that's why you speak so generously." Xiang You used a new term that he learned from Xiang Kang.

"Then what do you want?" Feng Zhong asked vigilantly.

"I don't want to do anything." Xiang Zhuang sneered, changed his expression, and said in a strange way: "The night is dark and the wind is high, the lights are dark, the wilderness, alone in a room or something, Ting Zhang, take care of yourself."

"Our fraternity will always remember your kindness, Mr. Feng Ting." Xiang You took the conversation, and said even more eccentrically: "I will also burn incense and pray day and night, and pray for the blessings of heaven, earth, ghosts and gods, so that you can live a long life, Feng Tingzhang. Longevity."

Both Xiang Zhuang and Xiang You said good auspicious words, but these words heard Feng Zhong's ears, but made Feng Zhong's scalp numb and his heart beat faster.Several pavilion guards nearby also heard something was wrong, and hurriedly asked: "Xiang, what do you mean by that? You want to threaten our pavilion chief?"

"Understand whatever you want." Xiang Zhuang replied with a sneer, but kept staring at Feng Zhong, and used the method Xiang Kang taught him to deliberately stare at Feng Zhong's nose, making Feng Zhong feel that he was always looking at him s eyes.

Unable to withstand Xiang Zhuang's sharp gaze, Feng Zhong's eyes were a little fluttering, and he said bravely: "Mr. Xiang, I will say it again. I went to search your house the night before yesterday. I handled the case according to the law. If you are not satisfied, you can go to the county Sue me. But if you dare to act recklessly, there are plenty of ways to punish you in the imperial court code."

Xiang Zhuang and Xiang You sneered and did not speak, but there was no new movement. Feng Zhong waited for a long time without reply, then turned around and walked into the pavilion, shouting: "Come in! They like to play chess here, let them play chess." Let's see how long they can go down!"

Several pavilion soldiers agreed to follow Feng Zhong into the pavilion, Xiang Zhuang and Xiang You exchanged glances, sat down on the ground again and continued to play chess.When Feng Zhong saw it in the pavilion, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed, knowing that the Xiang family brothers made it clear that they wanted to pester him, forcing him to explain to them what happened the night before, otherwise he would never let it go.

Everything has two sides. Although the Qin law is strict, after the unification of the world, the survivors of the six countries who were forced to assimilate are generally unacceptable and unbearable, but this has greatly restrained the hands and feet of the grassroots officials of the Qin Dynasty. The grounds and reasons for Feng Zhong’s arrest of Xiang Zhuang and Xiang You, even if he wanted to drive them away from the gate of the pavilion, he couldn’t do it—because Qin Fali really didn’t have any rules that forbid people to be in front of the gate of the pavilion. stay.

As for doing it directly, don’t even think about it. There is a pavilion chief surnamed Liu in Pei County, Sishui County. He was imprisoned for more than a year because he accidentally injured a friend who would drive his car while joking around. Feng Zhong, who has heard this lesson, certainly does not want to repeat the same mistakes.

So there is no way, even though he knows that the Xiang family brothers are uneasy and kind, and may even be unfavorable to him at any time, Feng Zhong can't think of any way to get rid of the entanglement of the Xiang family brothers, so he can only hide in the pavilion with fear. Sheli temporarily forced the edge, and wanted to wait for the Xiang family brothers to calm down and leave on their own, and then try to find a way to get back to this place.

Maybe it was because they were really bored. Just after noon, Xiang Zhuang and Xiang You, who had been playing chess all morning in front of the pavilion, actually left by themselves. After the news was reported to Feng Zhong, Feng Zhong who had been nervous all morning He also immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile to the Ting Zu who had reported the letter: "The two shabby goods really couldn't hold their breath. They only stayed there all morning and left by themselves. I thought I could watch until dark. That's okay, this matter Looks like it's over."

"Ting Zhang, this matter is not over yet." The pavilion soldier said with a sad face: "The two shabby goods Xiang Zhuang and Xiang You left, but their cousins ​​Xiang Guan and Xiang Sui came after them and squatted beside us." Under the tree opposite the gate of the pavilion, chess is still played there."

"what?!"

Feng Zhong's shock was no small matter, so he hurried to the gate of the pavilion to have a look, and saw that just as the newsstand soldier said, although Xiang Zhuang and Xiang You among the Xiang family's children had disappeared, Xiang Guan and Xiang Sui had changed shifts and squatted at the gate Under the tree on the opposite side, there is a fierce game of chess between you and me.Feng Zhong was even more flustered when he saw it, and said to himself: "Oh no, it seems that these poor kids are determined to trouble me, so instead of staring at me, what the hell are they trying to do?"

"Ting Zhang, these shabby kids seem to be keeping an eye on you, what should we do?" The pavilion soldier next to him also saw that something was wrong, and asked: "Can you find some reason to catch these two shabby guys and give them to you?" Want some color?"

"What reason?" Feng Zhong asked back, "They didn't break the law, so why should we arrest them?"

Ting Zu was at a loss for words, and the other followers and Ting Zu were chattering, trying to find ways to help Feng Zhong get people. One of the diners who often ate at Feng's house also said: "Ting Zhang, there is no need. The reason is that I want to ask about the case of the night before yesterday, and I will arrest them first and lock them in the pavilion to see if they dare to make trouble."

Feng Zhong was a little tempted, and once wanted to take down the Xiang family brothers on the grounds of investigating the case, but when the words came to his lips, Feng Zhong dismissed this idea again, because Feng Zhong suddenly remembered a terrible event—— ——The Xiang family has two murderers who are on the run and have not been arrested. Even if they may not dare to come back, who can guarantee that there will be no third murderer in the Xiang family? !
At this time, the situation changed again. Among the children of the Xiang family, Xiang Han and Xiang It didn't know where they got a yellow dog, tied it with a rope and led it to the gate of the Shiling Pavilion, and deliberately loudly He yelled that he would kill to improve the food, attracting the attention of everyone in the pavilion and passers-by.Then, in front of Feng Zhong and everyone in Tingshe, Xiang Guan, who was squatting on the opposite side and playing chess, pulled out the sword at his waist, shouted that the sword fell, and beheaded the unlucky yellow dog. All over the place.

"Good swordsmanship! Look at me!"

Xiang Han yelled loudly, grabbed the headless dog corpse and threw it into the air, then suddenly drew his sword and slashed in the air, cutting off the headless dog corpse again. The loud applause, the malicious smiles and gazes were all aimed at Feng Zhong who was standing in the door of the pavilion watching the fun!
"Take it back to pluck the hair and remove the skin, cook it in the pot, and wait for us to go back to drink and eat meat at night!" Xiang Guan shouted loudly, and then deliberately asked Xiang Han loudly: "Have you discussed it? Who will guard here at night? "

"We've discussed it earlier." Xiang Han agreed even louder, and said, "Xiang Sheng and Xiang Kang in the first half of the night, and Xiang Yang and I in the second half of the night! Xiang Tie and the others are still young, so we won't let them come!"

Hearing this, of course there was an uproar at the door of the pavilion, and Feng Zhong's face turned pale. Only then did he know that the Xiang family brothers had already arranged shifts, and were going to take turns to keep an eye on him, and then just waited for him to go out alone, or If you reveal any flaws, you will take revenge and revenge—although it is also possible to do nothing.

Xiang Han and Xiang Iti, who did not break the law by killing dogs in public, left with the bloody dog ​​carcass, while Xiang Guan and Xiang Sui sat back under the tree and continued their endless six games. The sword stained with dog blood was stuck in the mud beside him, and when he saw this in the pavilion, Feng Zhong's heart beat faster, he regretted offending the Xiang family brothers, and he was even more afraid that the two uncles were desperadoes The Xiang family brothers suddenly went crazy and rushed in to settle accounts with themselves.

During the almost torturous waiting, it was gradually getting dark. After dinner in the pavilion, Xiang Sheng and Xiang Kang, the sons of the Xiang family, actually came to the gate of the pavilion with a jar of wine to change shifts. After spending the whole afternoon, Xiang Guan and Xiang Sui went back to rest and eat.The pavilion soldier reported the news to Feng Zhong, and Feng Zhong was inevitably upset when he heard it, and he didn't know what to do.However, at this moment, another pavilion soldier came to report and said: "The pavilion chief, Xiang Kang from the Xiang family knocked on the door and asked you to come out and talk."

"Damn it! Little man, dare to bully you!" A doorman couldn't bear it any longer, picked up the weapon in the pavilion and said: "Ting chief, do it, first arrest the two little men guarding outside, and then arrest them." The rest of the Xiang family's broken goods were caught, and I asked them what they were going to do!"

Feng Zhong hesitated again, and almost wanted to adopt this disciple's proposal. However, after analyzing the odds of winning directly, Feng Zhong was surprised to find that he was not very sure—the thinner Xiang Kang was not easy to deal with, but The tall and burly Xiang Sheng is not a kind person, and no one on his side can be his opponent if he tries his best.

"Pavilion Chief, that guy named Xiang Kang knocked on the door again. He said he was asking you to come out and talk. He also said that he didn't have any malicious intentions. He just wanted to say a few heartfelt words to you. I hope you can listen to them."

Another pavilion soldier came to report that Xiang Kang insisted on meeting. Feng Zhong hesitated for a while, but finally couldn't hold back his curiosity. He gritted his teeth and said, "Go, everyone, go out and see what that little man said."

A dozen or so pavilion guards and Feng's housekeepers agreed, quickly took their weapons and oil lamps, followed Feng Zhong to the gate of the pavilion, opened the gate of the pavilion, shouted loudly and rushed out, Feng Zhong stood relatively close. Finally, as soon as the door opened, he paid attention to the movement around him, for fear that other members of the Xiang family would suddenly come out of the darkness.

Xiang Kang was the only one standing in front of the door holding the opened wine jar. Seeing a large group of people rushing out of the pavilion surrounded by Feng Zhong, Xiang Kang not only showed no trace of fear, but also showed a somewhat contemptuous smile. The wine jar, said: "Don't panic, don't be afraid, I'm here to drink with Feng Tingchang."

Stealing a glimpse of the tall and burly Xiang Sheng holding his sword under the opposite tree, he looked around vigilantly, and after confirming that there was no one else nearby, Feng Zhong then asked Xiang Kang in a vicious voice, "What are you looking for? thing?"

"I want to have a drink with Feng Tingchang." Xiang Kang showed the wine jar again, and said with a smile, "I also want to say a few words by the way."

"The wine is free, if you have anything to say, just say it!" Feng Zhong said while holding the hilt of his sword tightly.

"Excuse me, Ting Zhang Zhang, how much is the salary for a month?" Xiang Kang asked with a smile.

"Why are you asking this?" Feng Zhong asked warily.

"If I remember correctly, it seems that the county is giving you eight hu grains a month, right?" Xiang Kang didn't answer the question, and said, "Besides Lumi, if there is a little surplus in tax money and food in the locality, there will be more You, Feng Tingchang, send some more, right?"

"That's right, why are you asking this?" Feng Zhong replied and asked back.

"This amount of money and food is not much." Xiang Kang asked nonchalantly, and said with a smile: "Although it is enough to support a family, it is relatively affluent, but Mr. Feng Tingchang has a lot of friends and many diners in your family. I am afraid that this small amount of money and food will have to be given to you." Are you stretched from time to time?"

"What exactly do you want to say?" Feng Zhongyue became more confused when he heard it, and shouted: "Speak directly, there is no need to beat around the bush!"

"Ting Zhang Feng, I want to ask you, is it worth it for this little money?" Xiang Kang smiled more cordially.

"What's worth it? What do you want to say?" Feng Zhong asked angrily.

"What do I say it's worth? Don't you know, Chief Pavilion?" Xiang Kang finally saw it, and said with a smile: "Aside from your most precious thing, Chief Pavilion, what else can you have?"

"My most precious thing?" Feng Zhong was still a little confused, but combined with what happened today, another gleaming big word popped up in Feng Zhong's mind - Fate!
