Water Margin people

Chapter 185 Breaking through Qinghe County

"Brother, Lu Fang and Guo Sheng have taken down the county government office!"

Shi Qian greeted Sun Lei and the others at the door.

"Pei Xuan, go for a while, you know everything about the government office best."

Sun Lei looked at Pei Xuan and said.

"Yes, brother!"

Pei Xuan took a few minions and went to the government office.

"Guard the city gate, let's go to Yuanwai Liu's mansion!"

With a wave of his hand, Sun Lei took the rest of the people to the Liu Mansion.

Because it was night, many people in the city were still sleeping soundly and didn't know what happened until people on the street realized the problem and shouted.

"It's so noisy, haven't you seen bandits entering the city? Tieniu, it's time for you to act!"

Sun Lei pointed to the closed door of Liu Mansion in front of him and said to Li Kui.

"Look, brother!"

Li Kui swung his ax overjoyed and went up to kill him. Two axes struck the black-painted gate.

"Is it really good brother to do this? I always feel like doing something bad!"

Looking at all this, Lu Zhishen frowned and said, these actions have nothing to do with acting for the sky, they are completely bandits entering the city.

"What's wrong? You saw that day too. Several family members were cheated of their property by Mr. Liu. That's a broken family. Don't you uphold justice?"

Sun Lei looked at Lu Zhishen and asked, this time he came to Qinghe County because he was a well-known teacher, and it was to uphold justice in the face of injustice, not to break the county government and loot.

"Miss Straight Thief, this broken door is so strong!"

Li Kui couldn't open the door even with several axes. The door of Liu Yuan's house was very heavy, and it was made of high-quality rosewood. Li Kui only chopped some sawdust with several axes.

"Let Sajia come!"

When Lu Zhishen thought of those who had suffered, his anger rose, and he bumped directly, breaking the door bolt abruptly, and the door opened.

In the courtyard of the Liu Mansion, several men in black clothes holding sharp knives looked at the people who came in in horror.

"Sure enough, it's a family of rich and heartless thieves, and there are still dead soldiers in the family!"

When Lu Zhishen saw the way those people were dressed, he instantly became furious. This kind of black-clothed man holding a sharp knife could tell at a glance that he was a dead man raised by a rich family.

"Is it a villain? Then you can kill him?"

Li Kui swung his ax overjoyed and went up to kill. Seeing Li Kui's fierce face and the pair of ax gleaming coldly, the men in black were too frightened to move.

"die!"

Li Kui chopped off two with one axe, and the rest were so frightened that they dropped their weapons and knelt down to beg for mercy.

"Hey, you really don't need to be killed!"

Li Kui spit a mouthful of phlegm on the heads of those people.

"Brother, someone caught it!"

Cao Zheng led people to find a middle-aged man and woman from the capital.

"My lord, spare my life, my lord, spare my life! You can take all the gold, silver and furniture!"

Liu Yuanwai lay on the ground and begged Sun Lei for mercy.

"Did I say I'm only here to fetch gold and silver?"

Sun Lei looked at Liu Yuanwai and his wife on the ground and said.

Shi Qian moved a stool for Sun Lei to sit down. Yuanwai Liu and his wife were kneeling in the yard, and the minions gathered around holding torches and holding sharp knives, just like the Hall of Yama.

"Your Majesty, the villain keeps his own place and never dares to become enemies with the Great Kings. I beg the King to spare his life!"

Yuanwai Liu and his wife continued to beg for mercy.

"Let me tell you the truth, I am Sun Lei, the talker of Liangshan, you should know the purpose of my coming!"

Sun Lei looked at Yuanwai Liu and his wife and asked.

"My lord, the villain respects the heroes of Liangshan the most..."

Member Liu continued to beg for mercy.

"I think you don't cry when you see the coffin, look at these, do you know me?"

Sun Lei took out an IOU and threw it in front of Member Liu.

"This... this... Your Majesty misunderstood, it's that old Li who owes his debts, and his death has nothing to do with me!"

When Yuanwai Liu and his wife saw the piece of paper, their faces changed drastically, but they still pleaded for mercy.

"Oh? Then you are looking at this picture!"

Sun Lei threw another piece of paper over, which was also an IOU, but the first one was 100 taels, and the second one was ten taels.

"I only tell the truth when I do things in Liangshan. Old Litou owes you ten taels of silver, with an annual interest rate of 12%, and repays you 100 taels a year. You know that old Litou is illiterate, colluded with a guarantor, and changed it to [-] taels. After the expiration date, Old Li will know that he was cheated, and you demanded the land of Old Li’s family and Lao Li’s daughter, but Old Li couldn’t complain, and finally hanged himself because of injustice.”

Sun Lei looked at Liu Yuanwai and his wife and said, Pei Xuan has already found out about this matter, and the evidence is solid. Old Li Tou's son works as a handyman in Liangshan Town. He bought it, and only sentenced him to hang himself without paying the money he owed, and ordered his children to pay back the money. In the end, Lao Li's son directly sued Liangshan, and Pei Xuan accepted the case.

Sun Lei clapped his hands again, and a boy of seventeen or eighteen was ushered in.

"My lord, it's them. They bullied my father for being illiterate. The joint guarantor rewrote the IOU, killed my father, and even robbed my sister and the family's property."

When the young man saw Yuanwai Liu and his wife, he immediately knelt down in front of Sun Lei and burst into tears.

"Go on, I will give you a satisfactory punishment tomorrow morning!"

Sun Lei waved his hand and asked the minions to pull the boy down.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. It's because we were blinded by eating lard, and it's because of greed. We are willing to pay for compensation!"

The woman quickly opened her mouth and said, the evidence is convincing and they can't allow them to deny it, but the people in front of them are Liangshan thieves, and thieves are usually very greedy for money, more money should be able to settle it.

"We're all here, do you still have money?"

Sun Lei looked at the two people in front of him with a smile, and the others also laughed.

These words made Liu Yuanwai and his wife completely desperate. The thieves broke through the county, and there was still a possibility of their survival there.

"Seeing that there are still killers in your yard, what are you planning to do?"

Sun Lei looked at Liu Yuanwai and his wife again, and they talked about it, and they also told about their plan to kill Wu Dalang today.

"I'm curious, the Wu family's house is bare, just those few broken houses, is this worth your scheme?"

Sun Lei asked suspiciously.

"The ancestor of the Wu family also had money. He once melted a batch of gold ingots and buried them as family property, just under his ancestral house."

The woman spoke.

"The Wu family doesn't know, how do you know?"

Sun Lei didn't believe it, although the big family did have the habit of hoarding gold ingots, but the Wu family was so poor that they should have dug them out long ago.

"The little lady's ancestors were famous goldsmiths in Qinghe County. The batch of gold ingots is the hand of her ancestors. There are a total of one hundred ingots, and each ingot is 50 taels."

The woman spoke.

"So you guys just saw the money and planned to take advantage of the dark wind this month to murder and set fire to kill people?"

Sun Lei looked at those two people, they were like deflated balls, they slumped on the ground and nodded.

"Extremely vicious!"

Lu Zhishen was furious when he heard this, but these two village cases could sentence these two people to death. These two people are so vicious and confident, and they don't know how many outrageous things they have done on weekdays.

"Tie it up and send it to the county government to Pei Xuan!"

After Sun Lei finished asking, he waved his hands contentedly and told the minions to take the two of them down.

"Brother, why do you keep people like this? I Tie Niu cut them off."

Li Kui said angrily, this vicious couple should really be killed.

"This kind of people will be brought to a public trial. Wouldn't it be cheaper for you to kill them like this? If you want to do something, go to Pei Xuan and ask him to give you a job as a murderer."

Sun Lei laughed and said, since it is to make a name for yourself, you can't do things hastily, you have to do things beautifully.
