Chapter 2 Encountering a Thief (Repair)

The second year of Yongxing, Emperor Xiaozhi (Jiawu, [-] A.D.).

Bowangpo Trail, this is a hilltop outside Xinye County. It is located in a small area with lush barren trees. It is late autumn, and the yellow grass as high as a calf is blowing in the wind, giving off a desolate smell.

A carriage was slowly advancing, and an elderly coachman was skillfully waving his whip.

The whip was slapped, and it was obvious that the driver was an experienced driver.

The name of this elderly coachman is Li Han, who lives in a small village outside Xiangyang City and relies on driving for a living all year round.The business was good at first, and besides the daily expenses, I could save some small money for backup, but as I got older, the business gradually cooled down.

If it wasn't impossible, very few people would ask him to drive. After all, he is far less agile than a young man when he is old.

Seeing that the money and food at home were getting less and less, he saw it in his eyes, but he was anxious in his heart.

This day, he went out early again, luckily, he met a group of kind people who were willing to take his car early in the morning.It's a pity that the journey is far away, and the destination is far away in Hejian, Jizhou. Of course, the reward is quite generous.He thought over and over again, thinking of the remaining rice at home, he decided to run this trip.

After driving the car for 30 years, the technology of controlling the car can be described as extremely proficient. In less than a day, they arrived at Bowangpo Trail near Xinye.

Little did they know that a danger was waiting for them.

Jiao San is a murderer from Jingzhou. Because he was greedy for the wealth of the wealthy family Wanfu and the beauty of Wu's wife Wu, he frantically killed more than a hundred people in Wanfu and raped Wu.

Afterwards, Jingzhou was shocked, and Jiao San was imprisoned for this reason, and he was going to be executed on the next day.The so-called calamity lasted for thousands of years, Jiao San was not killed, but took advantage of the opportunity to kill the jailer and escaped.He planned to escape to another place, and since he had no money, he planned to make a ticket before leaving, so that he could make up enough travel expenses to act.

The sound of horseshoes of "De Da, De Da" gradually came from a distance, and Jiao San gradually revealed a smile, and pulled out a tool of his own to commit crimes from his waist—a pig-killing knife, quietly lurking in the grass .

Caution is the number one secret of his life till now.

When he saw that the driver was an old man and there was only one carriage, he put away his doubts.What could be safer in the wilderness than an old man and a wretched carriage.

Jiao San jumped out from the bushes and shouted: "Stop, otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."

The coachman was Li Han, he was humming a folk song leisurely without knowing the danger.He has walked this trail in Jingzhou no less than ten times, and he is already very proficient, even if he closes his eyes, he will not fall into the gutter.

Suddenly, a figure sprang out, out of instinct, he took the rein of the horse and stopped immediately. When he heard what the other party said clearly, he regretted it, and his face turned pale with fright.

No matter who it is, as long as he faces death, he will inevitably show fear.

Li Han trembled with fear, and said in a trembling voice: "The good man spares his life, the good man spares his life. The little old man is a small business, so he has extra money."

Jiao San said angrily: "If you don't have money, you will take your life. Lao Tzu Jiao San has already carried the lives of a hundred people on his body, so don't you care about adding one more."

Hearing this sentence, Li Han trembled even more, Jiao San's viciousness had already spread throughout Jingzhou, how could he not be afraid.

At this time, a refined scholar came out, and asked Jiao San without any fear: "Your Excellency, Sun Zhe, your Excellency has committed many crimes, and his viciousness is heinous. Aren't you afraid of humiliating your ancestors?"

Jiao San was startled, saying that the two most famous things in Jingzhou were his own murder case, and Hejian King Liu Kai hired Sun Zhe to teach his great-grandson Liu Hong in Hejian.

Sun Zhe’s family affairs are prominent. His father, Sun Xiong, was the mentor of Emperor Huan Liu Zhi and Emperor Xiaozhi Liu Zuan, and his ancestor, Sun Jie, was the mentor of Emperor Xiaozhi Liu Bao. Both generations of the family were emperor teachers, and there were many scholars in the scholarly circle. strong influence.

Sun Zhe was also intelligent since he was a child, and his talent was spread all over the scholars at a young age. Because Liu Kai, the king of Hejian, had shown great kindness to Sun Xiong, he personally edited the book and sent important officials to invite him.Sun Xiong retired to the countryside for many years and was tired of worldly affairs, so he asked his beloved son Sun Zhe to be Liu Hong's first teacher.

Jiao San was a little hesitant at this moment, although he was a reckless man, he also knew that the Sun family was not easy to mess with, and the King of Hejian was not a cheap lamp.For a while, he didn't pay attention either.

Just as he was hesitating, a girl's light cough came from inside the car.

Jiao San's eyes suddenly showed scarlet greed, and his breathing became short of breath.Who is the girl?Everyone knows that Sun Zhe married Li Shi, the most talented woman in the south of the Yangtze River.It is said that Mrs. Li's beauty is no less than that of Xi Shi in the Warring States Period.Compared with the Wu family whom he raped and killed, he is thousands of times more beautiful.

The few coughs just now gave him a feeling of spring breeze.

Sex is a bone-scraping knife, a man can do anything for sex.

He turned his heart and said ferociously: "Boy, if you want to blame, I will blame you for having a beautiful wife. Go to the Nine Springs to complain! I will take good care of your wife."

People always like to look at others according to their own standards. Sun Zhe is a relatively pedantic scholar. He regards the face of his ancestors as more important than his life, and thinks that the other party is the same, so he made the previous remarks.

How did he know that people like Jiao San would not be lenient even if they asked him to kill his own mother for money, let alone their ancestral face, which was nothing in their eyes.

Sun Zhe was shocked, and endured his fear and whispered: "Old Li, I will hold Jiao San when we get back, and you take the opportunity to drive away from this place. The other party's legs will never be able to run with your carriage, not to mention that the government offered a reward of one A hundred big bucks to arrest him, as long as he goes to a crowded place, he will be safe." A man will never allow his loved one to be insulted, even if it is death, he will resist.

Of course, these words were heard by Mrs. Li in the car. Apart from being sad, she felt sweet in her heart.She didn't dissuade her lover's actions. It's not that she was afraid of death, but she didn't want her innocence to be tarnished. She could die in love afterwards, or she could defend Sun Zhe for life, but she must not destroy her innocence.What's more, she has already decided to die for love, at most she can take one step at night with her lover.

Seeing Sun Zhe's attitude towards death, Li Han felt guilty. It was precisely because Sun Zhe saw that he was an old man and couldn't bear to see him aimlessly waiting for passengers in the autumn wind, so he got into his car. Such a kind person , I actually planned to leave them behind and escape alone, and I suddenly felt guilty.

Li Han swung his whip suddenly, the horse suffered from pain and rushed towards Jiao San.Wielding the horsewhip again, the whip hit Jiao San on the cheek with a "snap", the so-called practice makes perfect.Li Han has lived by the horsewhip for more than [-] years, and he has already mastered a set of whip skills, so he can hit wherever he points.

Jiao San felt the pain and jumped to the side.
