Two human heads were hung on a sign under the eaves. This place was originally where a sign of "Panzhenyao" was hung.
At this moment, two human heads appeared on it.
One was slightly rotten and looked eaten.
The other one was grinning with blood all over its face.
As the shopkeeper of the Wang family in Haimen, Wang Changgui was a knowledgeable, bold and careful man. In his early years, he traveled back and forth between Fengcheng and Haimen with his head tied to his belt.
So, he was not afraid and just walked forward.
Um?!
Wang Changgui took a closer look and was immediately stunned.
Why?
He recognized these two heads.
A man and a woman.
Although the man's face showed some signs of decay and gnawing, he was indeed the original owner of the drugstore, the one who sold fake medicine, and the woman was his wife who had returned to the countryside.
What's going on?
Wang Changgui pondered in his heart, frowning.
Then, without stopping, he went straight to his shop and called his waiter.
"Go report to the police."
Wang Changgui gave the order and took out a hundred dollars from his sleeve and put it in the clerk's hand.
Why do people generally not want to see officials?
It’s because the word “official” has two mouths, one eats the defendant and the other eats the plaintiff.
It was originally just a trivial matter, but once it was brought to the attention of the officials, it became a serious matter.
What's more, the official in Haimen is a confused official.
How confused are you?
It is said that there were three brothers living near Beidaguan in Haimen. The eldest, the second and the third were all boatmen in front of the Beidaguan floating bridge. The three of them made a living by ferrying people across the river by boat.
The eldest and the second son are honest and dutiful people.
The third one is a bit cunning.
This is also common in normal families. No matter grandparents, father or mother, they all love the youngest one. These three brothers are no exception. The eldest and second oldest brothers love their younger brother the most.
After a while, the third brother became lazy and greedy.
Soon after, he picked up a lot of bad habits from the street thugs.
Not to mention the fighting, drinking, and gambling.
And I think about good things all day long.
He just wanted to get rich.
Thinking about getting rich overnight, and then doing this and that.
It's understandable. He's already in his thirties and still hasn't gotten rich, but he's not without gains. At least he's planned his life after getting rich very perfectly. He's even thought about how many concubines he'll marry, who will be on the 1st, 3rd, and 5th, and who will be on the 2nd, 4th, and 6th. He'll take a break on Sunday, and in the evening he'll go out to drink some wine, have some tea, and listen to some music.
What a beautiful day!
Gu!
Just thinking about it, my stomach started growling.
Okay, get up and cook.
At this moment, according to the time, it is already 11 o'clock in the morning, and the third brother is still lying there.
I opened the lid of the rice jar and saw that there was no rice left.
Forget it, I won’t do it anymore.
The third brother turned around, put his hands behind his back and ran to the homes of his two older brothers.
Logically speaking, the family should have been separated when the eldest brother got married more than ten years ago.
But the eldest and second brother felt sorry for their younger brother. Although the family was divided, they did not leave the household. That is to say, everyone still lived in the same yard. The eldest and second brother were not at home because they had gone out to work.
Only two sisters-in-law are here.
My sister-in-law is cooking.
My second sister-in-law is breastfeeding the baby.
The third brother took a look at the meal cooked by his sister-in-law and felt a little hungry.
The third brother glanced at his second sister-in-law's child and became even hungrier.
While smoking, the third brother suddenly said something without knowing why.
"Sister-in-law, let me have a taste too."
Or maybe it's about the importance of the environment. If it were a good family, they would never say this. The third child has been hanging out on the streets for too long and has picked up a lot of bad habits.
The second sister-in-law blushed immediately.
Feeling ashamed and angry, she took the child back to the house.
The sister-in-law is also very disappointed with the child .
The third brother felt a little regretful after he said that, but he didn't care. He turned around and went to the street to find his friends to drink and play.
When we got back in the middle of the night, it was already very lively.
The second child is making a fuss.
Any man would not be able to tolerate his wife being molested by this man, even if the man is his younger brother.
The eldest brother advised.
One was trying to persuade the other was making a fuss, and the third brother just happened to come back at this time.
Originally, the second brother was almost persuaded.
As a result, as soon as the third brother came back, the second brother became furious.
He raised his hand and slapped the third brother in the face.
The third brother was stunned and thought, why are you hitting me? I won’t let you go.
The two men started fighting.
The boss quickly stopped him.
It is not easy for one person to stop two people, not to mention that the second brother is a boatman and is strong, and the third brother is a street vendor with rich combat experience. As soon as the eldest brother tried to stop them, the two men subconsciously pushed hard.
Bang!
The eldest fell down.
The back of his head hit the big water tank in the yard.
At that time, the person was gone.
Someone died, and someone from the government office came.
The master also came. After hearing the whole story, he first asked, "Does the victim want to sue?"
According to the Daqian law, if family affairs are not reported, they will not be investigated.
Even if someone dies, the sentence will be lenient.
The boss is dead.
The second and third sons also came to their senses and both shook their heads to indicate that they would not sue.
The second child lost an older brother and then a younger brother, so he was left alone.
The third brother was more direct. If he sued, he would have to pay with his life, and he didn’t want to die.
Things were basically over at this point, and there was no need for others to get involved in the subsequent trivial matters. However, the master who thought he was an honest official insisted on showing off.
Immediately sentenced -
"Since it's because of the third brother and the second sister-in-law, and the third brother hasn't married yet, he should go with the second sister-in-law. The eldest brother is gone, and the eldest sister-in-law and the child need to be taken care of, so you can take care of the second brother. Anyway, you live in the same courtyard, so you can move around more. Just don't go through the wrong door at night."
After hearing this, the second and third brothers were dumbfounded.
The eldest and second sister-in-law didn't want to live anymore.
In the end, it came to nothing.
But this confused official's reputation came out.
People don't like officials in the first place, and they don't want to pay any attention to them after this.
If possible, Wang Changgui didn't want to pay attention to it.
But there is no way.
Someone died.
The woman among the two heads was obviously killed and was just hanging in front of her house.
I have to go.
Moreover, you have to take the initiative.
This can save a lot of trouble.
Wang Changgui was thinking in his heart what to say when the officers came and how to get himself out of this with the least cost. Just as he was thinking about it, the officers came.
Shopkeeper Wang frowned again.
Something is wrong!
Too fast!
If there is a foolish official, the messengers in the government office will also do things in a foolish way.
Often the case is reported in the morning but the police arrive in the afternoon.
It's been less than ten minutes, how come people are here?
Wang Changgui muttered to himself and secretly gestured to Lao Wang, meaning that he should take the lady away first, so as not to get into trouble.
At this time, Shopkeeper Wang already felt something was wrong.
Lao Wang also noticed it.
In other words, except for Li Changhai, the silly boy who reacted slowly, everyone in the convoy had more or less guessed it.
"A show of force?"
The eldest lady of the Wang family whispered to herself.
It's not surprising to show one's power.
A strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake.
It was normal to show off one's power, but she didn't come here to do anything. She just came here to check the accounts She wouldn't provoke outsiders. As for Wang Changgui? That was even more impossible.
Even if there is a problem with the accounts, there is no need to do this.
It's not directed at me.
yes……
Mr. Mo?
The eldest lady of the Wang family immediately looked at Mr. Mo.
Goethe sat upright on his horse, his face calm, as if it had nothing to do with him.
But deep down, I knew that this matter was probably directed at Huang Dangdang.
he?
It's possible.
But not big.
Compared to the prominent Huang Dangdang, the daughter of the "Sword Immortal", he is really a little inconspicuous.
With a guess in mind, Goethe continued watching.
As for Huang Dangdang looking around in the carriage?
He didn't care either.
The other party obviously did not show up, but just sent out the chess pieces.
Or rather...
Throw a stone to test the water.
Looking forward again, he saw a policeman with a knife and four policemen holding iron bars coming over. The one with the knife in front had a sad face and drooped eyes, while the four behind him staggered with every step.
If it weren't for the official uniform he was wearing, he would be even more of a street urchin.
That's even more impolite.
"Whose home is this?"
The leader pointed to the empty pharmacy.
Wang Changgui came out immediately and said.
"It's mine, old man. Before..."
"Tied."
Wang Changgui wanted to explain a few more words, but before he could finish his words, the man in front of him waved his hand and the four people behind him rushed up.
The guys in the shop quit.
The shopkeeper is usually nice to them.
They all came from Fengcheng, and basically they are all relatives.
Besides, how can you arrest someone like this?
Suddenly, seven or eight servants rushed out of the shop and stood in front of their boss.
"what?"
"Want to rebel?"
“I don’t want to live anymore!”
The leading policeman yelled and drew out his long sword with a clang.
"Don't move!"
Shopkeeper Wang shouted.
You can't take action at this time. Once you do, even if you are right, you will be wrong. Moreover, you will be caught and your shop will be closed.
"Humph, you're smart."
The leading policeman snorted coldly, and his triangular eyes almost turned upside down.
The four policemen behind him rushed forward to arrest the man.
Huang Dangdang couldn't sit still anymore and was about to take action.
But Goethe's voice came to my ears.
"Don't move."
There was no emotion in his voice. Huang Dangdang sat in the car and looked at Goethe. At this time, Goethe had a smile on his lips, but the smile was a little cold, especially his eyes.
It looks a bit creepy.
Cold and cold.
It also stings the eyes.
She just looked at it for a second longer and her eyes started to hurt and tears came out.
He immediately lowered his head and dared not look again.
Wang Changgui was taken away.
Lao Wang immediately gathered his servants together, arranged accommodation for the young lady and others, and then began to send people to search the place. He was prepared to spend enough money first. He didn't care whether the people could come out or not, the most important thing was to make sure they didn't go in and suffer.
Is it so easy to enter government offices?
Do you think you are innocent and that you are really fine?
Apart from anything else, the shackles on your hands and feet are not removed, and you are forced to endure the whole night, and the next day all the bones in your body will be loose.
If you meet someone more unethical, they will tie you directly to the toilet, where you will be haunted by the stench and will collapse in less than three days, and you will be a psycho when you come out.
Lao Wang is busy.
The eldest daughter of the Wang family came to Goethe's house.
They lived in the backyard of the Wang family shop. Originally, Wang Changgui wanted them to live next door because it was spacious and comfortable, but now that Wang Changgui had moved in, there was nothing to say.
Just squeeze in with the guys.
"Mr. Mo?"
The eldest daughter of the Wang family asked as she entered the room, with worry in her eyes and anxiety on her face.
Goethe smiled, he knew what was going on, and waved his hand.
"fine."
"Tomorrow morning, Shopkeeper Wang will be back."
Miss Wang heaved a sigh of relief.
She believed in Mr. Mo.
If Mr. Mo says it's okay, then it's really okay.
Immediately, a smile appeared on his face again.
When the eldest daughter of the Wang family had a smile on her face, the policeman who took Wang Changgui away also had a smile on his face.
Then one is happy.
That's a happy occasion.
Because the wallet in my hand is a burden!
"Fifty taels, sir, we'll settle the payment."
"That old guy is being held captive by me now. Do you want me to give him something?"
After receiving a satisfactory reward, the leading policeman asked the person in front of him.
This is a middle-aged man with long hair, a thin face, and a cold look in his eyes. His voice is hoarse when he speaks.
"Need not."
"Just lock him up."
After saying this, the middle-aged man waved his hand.
The messenger immediately stood up and bowed to say goodbye.
To the policeman, the middle-aged man's attitude didn't matter.
Anyway, the money is in hand.
As soon as he went out, four men came over.
The leader threw out two hundred dollars, and the four people took it happily. Then, they thanked the leader profusely and expressed their willingness to serve him in the future if they had any problems.
The leader laughed, gave some instructions, then turned and left.
It is true that he is on duty today.
Even at night.
But I finally got the money, so I should spend it happily. Isn't it worthy of the fifty taels?
Hearing that there was a new girl at Xiaobailou, he had to try to see if she was comfortable enough.
Lift your legs and take a step, raise your hands and make a gesture——
"Rubber!"
Immediately, a rickshaw came over, and we got on it and headed straight to the Little White House.
No words were spoken that night.
At daybreak, the messenger came out of the small white building, humming a little tune, with a faint smell of powder on his nose. He walked unsteadily, his legs trembling, and his waist aching a little.
"Glue...leather..."
The voices calling for rickshaws became weak.
First of all, I feel tired.
Secondly, it’s tiring.
If he hadn't been on duty yesterday and had to report for work today, he wouldn't have come.
That bed is so comfortable.
That girl is so slippery.
It's nothing like here outside, where the wind is not only howling but also blowing at my collar.
On the rickshaw, the policeman rolled up his sleeves and squinted his eyes.
After ten or twenty minutes, thinking that the time was almost up, the officer was about to open his eyes and slowly walk. At this moment, the car shook and the officer almost fell off.
The policeman was furious, he opened his eyes and was ready to slap the rubber puller in the face to let him know how powerful he was. But before he could do anything, he found the rubber puller slumped on the ground, shaking like a sieve.
The policeman subconsciously followed the line of sight of the rubber man.
Suddenly——
hiss!
The policeman took a breath of cold air.
Then I saw a string of human heads hanging on both sides of the yamen gate.
Eight on the left.
Four on the right.
Among the eight people on the left, there was one who looked familiar. He was the middle-aged man with long hair and sinister eyes whom he had seen yesterday.
The four on the right look even more familiar; they are his four subordinates.
Involuntarily, the officer touched his neck.
Is my head there?
