A knife in love

Chapter 2142
Murong Danyan sneered, and said bitterly: "No wonder people spread the word of mouth, saying that they are not afraid of bad things, but afraid of bad people. If it weren't for these minions working for the tiger and helping the evil, the dog officials would not dare to be so arrogant!"

The shopkeeper and the short fat man nodded in agreement after hearing what Murong Danyan said.The shopkeeper went on to say: "Young lady is right. Those masters, secretary offices, head arresters and tolerance arresters in the county magistrate's office in Wangqi County are more vicious than robbers. They don't do good things, they do all kinds of bad things."

When the shopkeeper said this, he spat bitterly, and then continued: "The magistrate is a little moved by what the head catcher said, and the magistrate really did a lot when he secretly sent the head catcher to lead people to kill and injure people. Few, it is indeed done without anyone noticing. It would be a good strategy to kill Ji in the dark and then destroy the corpse. However, the magistrate has not yet spoken, and the master shook his head repeatedly. He told the magistrate and the head hunter that the game is not After the happy breakup, he sent capable officers to find out the details of Uncle Ji. It is said that Uncle Ji came to Wangqi County to handle business this time, and he brought more than 40 servants with him, and booked the largest inn in the county. Moreover, according to the reports from the guards, among Uncle Ji's servants, there are actually a few who are capable of martial arts, and I'm afraid they know some martial arts. If the headhunters lead people to kill Uncle Ji, firstly, they may not be able to succeed, and secondly, even if they succeed, it is necessary Kill all the people in the entire inn, otherwise the news will be known. In this way, at least three or forty people will be killed. It is impossible to suppress such a big case. Therefore, this matter must not be feasible, otherwise it will definitely lead to disaster."

"After the magistrate heard what the master said, he was also taken aback. He knew that he could not act recklessly, so he scolded the arrester a few times, and then turned to ask the master for advice. The master said to the magistrate, since the surname Ji wants to marry the adult Fighting crickets, then we will fight him well, and we may not lose to him. Zhixian shook his head and sighed, only saying that his brave and invincible general had experienced many battles, but was released by a dog thief named Ji The cricket is defeated. Judging by the confident appearance of Ji, he must have many powerful crickets in his hand. If he enters the gambling table after seven days, he is not sure of winning. At that time, under the watchful eyes of everyone, if he loses the game , If you want to turn your face against Ji, I'm afraid it's already too late.

"After the county magistrate finished speaking, the master smiled and said, Your lord is too worried. The betting match didn't say how long the fight will last. Even if the surname Ji still has a powerful cricket in his hand, he can't hold us back. The county magistrate couldn't understand what the master said, but seeing his confident appearance, he was surprised and happy, so he asked him to explain in detail. Then the master said calmly, seven days later, the gambling There is no doubt that my lord will win the competition. But we have to prepare well in advance to ensure that the surnamed Ji loses. This person is not from our Wangqi County, but just a passing merchant. Even if he has a powerful cricket in his hand, How much can there be in total? My lord might as well issue an order, requiring every family in the city to pay a few crickets to the yamen. Within a few days, all the crickets in and outside the city of Wangqi County will surely fall into the hands of your lord. Eight or nine thousand. After seven days, the adults will fight the crickets surnamed Ji, and we will release the crickets one by one to fight the crickets surnamed Ji. The crickets are exhausted. He didn't say how long he will fight with the adults' crickets, so as long as we have enough crickets, this bet is sure to win.

"After the master finished speaking, the county magistrate, the book office, and the catcher immediately applauded and praised the master for being smart. The county magistrate immediately asked these bastards to issue an order that all the people in the city should pay crickets to the magistrate's yamen. He was about to be taken into prison and tortured. Tens of thousands of people inside and outside the city heard the news. Although they felt that it was ridiculous in their hearts, they scolded the eighteen generations of the dog official's ancestors, but everyone knew that the county magistrate was cruel and vicious. If you don’t hand over to the cricket, you will definitely be caught by him and thrown into the prison. At that time, the money that is extorted for the ransom will not count. If it is light, you will be disabled, and if it is serious, you may even have to throw your life in the prison. Therefore, the people dare to anger I didn’t dare to say anything, so the whole family went into battle and caught crickets everywhere.”

The shopkeeper sighed at this point, and then continued: "Among the people who were looking for crickets like crazy, there were me, my wife, son and daughter-in-law. If these dog officials say a word, we little The common people have to obediently obey orders and work hard for them, otherwise there will be disaster. The world is in such a mess, how can we ordinary people live?"

Murong Danyan was also shocked when he heard it, and thought to himself that I heard my father say "the magistrate who copied the house and the county magistrate who killed the family" before, and thought he was just joking. I didn't expect that a small seventh-rank county magistrate could really ruin the people's families and make their wives and children scattered.It's a pity that I slipped out of Murong Villa twice, wandered around in the rivers and lakes, and didn't kill a few dog officials to eliminate harm for the people.Hmph, this dog official in Wangqi County is so hateful, I can't let him go.When I sneak into the magistrate's office of Wangqi County, I must kill that dog official with a sword!
The shopkeeper didn't know that Murong Danyan was planning to kill someone, but when he saw the fierce look in her eyes, his heart froze. He thought to himself that this little girl was young and beautiful, but her eyes were sharp, so she didn't know what she was planning.He thought for a moment, and then said: "The things Miao Zhu said are all facts. I saw it with my own eyes and did it with my own hands. In order to get a cricket, the people in the whole city went crazy. The crickets in the city Soon they were all caught, and the people had to go outside the city to search for crickets. Some people caught many crickets and sold them at a high price. Some even fought to snatch one cricket. They were good brothers and sisters. , Good neighbors, but turned against each other because of a cricket. At that time, everyone became crazy. Thinking about it now, it is both ridiculous and sad.

"The two foxes listened to Miao Zhu's words and couldn't help scolding the county magistrate for his crimes. Miao Zhu also scolded a few more words, and then told the two foxes that when they came to Wangqi County, the people in the city were walking around day and night Searching for crickets can be said to turn every inch of land in the city upside down, so at a glance, there is a lot of noise everywhere. At that time, the Temple of the Earth has been searched five or six times, and even the niche of the Lord of the Land has been overturned. On the ground. Not to mention that there were no crickets in the temple, even if there were, they would have been captured long ago. After seven or eight groups of people came, no one came to harass the earth temple, so it is comparable to other places in the city. In contrast, the Earth Temple will appear extremely quiet.

"The two foxes suddenly realized it, and couldn't help shaking their heads. Miao Zhu continued, the magistrate got tens of thousands of crickets, and he was very proud of himself, thinking that he was sure of winning. Seven days later, it was the day of the perfect game between the two sides. Officials, wealthy businessmen, rich men, and big households from Dongyang Mansion and Wangqi County gathered inside, and thousands of ordinary people stood outside the yamen to watch the excitement. Everyone seemed to have forgotten the tragedy of being driven almost crazy by crickets these days. Few relatives and friends are still imprisoned because they did not pay enough crickets. They gathered outside the Yamen, all stretching their necks, extremely excited."
