Nightwatcher Chapter 10: Injustice

Chapter 510 Injustice

"DaDaDa..."

The little mare trot over with the princess carrying the princess on her small elegant steps.

It snorted and gently rubbed Xu Qi'an's face. The latter kept stroking its neck to comfort it.

The princess unwrapped the package hanging on the horse, grabbed a green robe and handed it to Xu Qi'an. Then, she glanced at the little woman, hesitated a little, and took out her cotton-padded clothes.

"Put it on, catching the wind and cold, saving people is in vain..."

In the late autumn, the climate in Yongzhou is so cold to the bone. People have just been fished out of the river, and if they don’t change clothes and keep warm in time, the mortality rate is still very high once they get sick.

"The old man's house is in front. Let's go to the old man's house to change clothes."

The old man holding the bamboo pole said hurriedly.

Xu Qi'an hugged a clean green robe and cotton coat, and said:

"Thank you, old man."

Immediately led the horse, dragged the little woman, and followed the old man.

The surrounding people are still discussing, pointing, or gossiping, or feeling that Zhang Li's wife is dead. She met a good water player who was willing to dive to save people in the cold weather despite the cold.

After walking less than a hundred meters, the old man turned into the cobblestone alley and pushed open the black wooden door covered with corrosion marks.

Behind the door is a small courtyard with a square patio above.

At this time, the little woman was already pale, her lips were pale, and she was trembling all over.

If Xu Qi'an is still a martial artist, she can easily get rid of the chill in her body.

However, the Qi machine belongs to Takeo's patent. In the middle and low grades, among the major systems, only Takeo can use the Qi machine.

At Gaopin, other systems can also use Qi as the physical body strengthens, but they are far from comparable to Takeo. Just like Li Gu, at the level of Lina, she can take the initiative to refine Qi, using the physical body as the main body, supplemented by the Qi machine, to better exert her combat power.

"Take her to change clothes." Xu Qi'an took down the big parcel and threw it to Munanzhi.

The princess hugged tightly in her arms, glanced at the little woman, and quietly tucked the beautiful padded jacket back into the package, and took out a not so beautiful padded coat.

I was sloppy just now and accidentally took a good dress.........

Watching the two enter the master bedroom, Xu Qi'an, under the guidance of the old man, went to the side room to change clothes.

"Old man, would you like to avoid it first?"

Xu Qi'an said softly.

The old man was taken aback for a moment and wondered: "Why are you still shy?"

No, I'm afraid to scare you.........Xu Qi'an smiled apologetically and watched the old man silently.

The old man put a clean sweat towel on the table and exited the room.

Xu Qi'an untied his robe and took off his shirt. Four nails on his front abdomen and back penetrated into the flesh and blood, and the wound was dark red and hideous and terrifying.

On the top of his head Baihui acupoint, there is a nail to seal the soul.

Feng Mo nail sealed his cultivation base, including vigor. Now he has the real skin of a third-rank martial artist, but he can't wield enough power. It is difficult to kill people by relying on the characteristics of physical rigidity.

After changing into a set of dry clothes, Xu Qi'an and the old man sat in the simple hall, grilling the fire, and there was a pot of rice wine on the stove, and the two chatted.

"Old man, you live alone at home?"

"Yes."

"Where is your family?"

"My wife left last year. I have a pair of children. My daughter married in a foreign country. I haven't come back to see me for many years. As for my son..."

The old man paused, helpless flashes in his slightly cloudy eyes:

"A few years ago, there were floods and all the crops were gone. In order to feed his family, he went up the mountain to hunt with the hunters, fell off the cliff and fell to his death."

There was a moment of silence.

Xu Qi'an himself is a person who has experienced great grief and pain, so he doesn't say "sorrow" and the like.

At this moment, the old man raised the wine jug and said with a smile: "This wine is just warm enough to be ready. When it boils, the taste will disappear. Later, taste it."

There are no extra cups at home.

Xu Qi'an dumped the jug, took a sip, his eyes lit up, the taste was sweet and mellow, both bitter and spicy, but just right. After swallowing the wine, the fragrant fragrance between the lips and teeth persists for a long time.

There are countless good wines in Beijing, but he did taste this kind of wine for the first time.

At this time, another plate of white-cut chicken and salted boiled peanuts will be fine.........Xu Qi'an thought with regret, some eagerly wanted to find an inn to live in and have a drink with the princess Dawn.

The old man nodded in satisfaction, seeing him with a long aftertaste, and his wrinkled face smiled.

"Listen to the accent of the younger generation, not a native of Yongzhou."

"From the capital."

The old man stood in awe and said: "It turns out to be from the capital. No wonder, the younger generation and your daughter-in-law are really talented."

Hey, old man, can you really have a good conscience when you say this.........Xu Qi'an is vomiting in his heart.

Just then, the princess and the little woman came out, the latter still pale, and her slender body trembling slightly from the cold.

The old man greeted the two of them to come over and warm up the fire. Xu Qi'an saw an abnormality in the face of the princess, and seemed to try to suppress his anger.

"What's wrong?"

Xu Qi'an handed the jug to the little woman, motioned her to take a sip to warm up, and then turned to look at Munanzhi.

The old man sighed: "Did Zhang Zhuo go gambling again?"

The little woman lowered her head and nodded.

Seeing this, the old man commented: "It seems that life is going to be over."

The little woman shook her head, tears pattering down her eyes.

Mun Nanzhi said with a gloomy face: "Her man gave her away..."

Giving someone away is a euphemism. It’s like this. The little woman’s husband is Zhang Youfu, who is a lame man. Because of her disability, she can’t do heavy work and her family has always been poor.

Pian Zhang Cripple is a person with good eyes and low hands, unwilling to live a hard life, so he indulges in gambling.

After a few years, the days of not being rich have become more and more difficult to live on.

Gambling ten gambling nine loses, Zhang Zhuo is not special, not only loses all his wealth, but also owes a debt.

The biggest creditor is a big gangster named Zhu Er.

Zhu Er colluded with the casino and drained Zhang's money, and then lent him the money, nine out of 13 returns.

The purpose is not for money, but for Zhang's lame daughter-in-law, who is the little woman in front of her.

He threatened with debts, and asked Zhang Zhuzi to **** his wife to himself, when would he be able to pay back the money, and when would he bring his wife back.

The desperate Zhang Jiazi reluctantly agreed and signed the contract.

The little woman was taken away by Zhu Er yesterday and was forced to commit herself to him. Taking advantage of Zhu Er's sleep this morning, she secretly escaped and wanted to jump into the river for a short sight.

After listening, the old man sighed again, as if he had expected Zhang Cripple to come this far sooner or later.

Primary wives are quite common in the south of Dafeng. It's okay in times of peace. Once a natural disaster is encountered, the moral of a pious wife will prevail.

For this kind of atmosphere, the law strictly prohibits it, but the government usually opens its eyes and closes its eyes to this, and adopts a tacit attitude.

Xu Qi'an reviewed the little woman again, she was indeed long and beautiful, and her temperament was soft and weak, which aroused the man's possessiveness.

Munanzhi frequently gestured with his eyes and asked Xu Qi'an how to deal with the little woman.

"How much money does your husband owe that Zhu Er?"

The little woman raised her head, glanced at him timidly, and whispered: "Thirty taels."

Thirty taels are a lot of money. In the capital, this is the income of a substantial population for one year. In a small county like Fuyang County, thirty taels of silver is enough to buy a big house.

But if you bet on money, you can't do that.

If the little woman did not deceive, and Zhu Er and the gambling shop colluded to kill the pig, then the thirty taels of silver was actually not paid, and the white wolf with the empty glove set a charming little lady of the good family.

The old man whispered: "This Zhu Er is a notorious big **** in the county. He has friendship with the county magistrate’s nephew. There are dozens of people under his hand. The most lively street in the county, Must pay him protection fees.

"There are many people who are dissatisfied with him, but there are more people who are afraid of him. With the county magistrate above him, he can be lawless."

Also very smart, there will be "reasonable" means to deceive men and women... Xu Qi'an added in his heart.

"As the saying goes, good people do what they want. Now you have two choices: 1. Your husband owes Zhu Er thirty-two taels. We will pay it back for you. You go back and live with your husband.

"Second, the contract is not in accordance with the law. I will settle it for you, but you have to reconcile with your husband. Afterwards, I will give you a sum of money. Whether you go back to your mother's house or go elsewhere, it's up to you."

The little woman lowered her head and whispered in a low voice: "How can she return to her family with the water thrown out by the married daughter. The little girl is a local. When she leaves the county, where can she go to seek life?"

Xu Qi'an knew that she chose the first one.

Immediately left thirty taels of silver for the little woman, and left the old man's house with the little mare and Munanzhi.

"If you have any questions, come to the best inn in the county to find me.

"Old man, the wine is good, thank you for your hospitality."

The two of them walked out of the alley in one effort, and gradually moved away.

The old man watched them leave and returned to the house. He was shocked to find that the place where the younger generation had just sat, had left a coin of official silver.

The old man has never seen such a large amount of silver in his life.

.............

In the county, a three-entry compound.

Zhu Er, with a full face, sat in the hall with a gloomy face and shouted to the subordinates in the hall:

"Catch that little girl back, shamelessly, and stay in the house to vent the flames to the brothers. There are so many brothers who can't ask for their daughter-in-law, just use everything."

He has tasted the taste of that little lady. Zhu Er has always been a person who loves the new and dislikes the old.

Although he was not allowed to do this in the contract, the lame man was as impoverished as he was, let alone thirty taels, he couldn't take out three taels of silver.

This woman will be his from now on, and he will do whatever he wants.

"Guru..."

Several guys swallowed.

Zhu Er was very satisfied with the reaction of his subordinates, thinking that his decision was extremely correct, which greatly engulfed people.

During this period of time, Zhu Er feels that he is running from time to time. This is mainly manifested in four aspects. First, he is gambling in the gambling house, winning more and losing less. This refers to the situation where there is no one thousand, pure hand luck. .

Second, the several shops, industries, and businesses he ran suddenly became better and prosperous.

Three, the original attitude was neither lukewarm nor lukewarm. He took bribes and looked down on his county master, so he suddenly changed his temper and called him brothers and sisters.

From the casino side, the idea of ​​squeezing the lame out of Zhang and then using debt to put the little lady into the house was the idea of ​​the county master.

Otherwise, according to Zhu Er's character, he prefers the overlord to make the bow hard, and then force the good girl to obey.

The county grandfather is worthy of being a scholar, and the way he thinks is not leaking, without any sequelae.

Fourth, the brothers under his hands have become more awed and loyal to him.

Zhu Er, whose financial resources and power have rapidly expanded, even moved the idea of ​​going to Yongzhou City.

Compared to the main city of Yongzhou, Fuyang County, this small county town, what's the deal.........Zhu Er converged his divergent thoughts, thinking about what kind of gift he could find for the county grandfather.

If women are directly excluded from the options, will the county grandfather lack women?

The silver is also removed, because silver has always been given away, and it is not unique enough to show his heart.

At this moment, a subordinate hurried in and said: "Second Lord, Zhang Zhuo and Sister-in-law are here, saying they are here to pay back the money."

Repay the money? Zhu Eryi was taken aback, almost thinking that his ears had misheard, and said solemnly: "Let them in."

Russian, the thin man who was limping on foot, pulled in a pretty little woman, who was bulging in her arms and guarding him tightly.

There are a few bruises on her face. It seems that she has just been hit, but she still holds the things in her arms tightly and never relaxes.

"Second Lord, we are here to pay the money."

Zhang Liaozi nodded and bowed, his face full of flattery.

Zhu Er didn't respond, but looked at the little woman and squinted:

"Where did you go."

The little woman tightly held the things in her arms again, a little afraid, but also courageously: "We are here to pay back the money, where's the contract?"

Zhu Er stared at her: "Where is the silver."

The little woman took out the cloth bag, which contained three ingots of official silver, ten taels each.

Official silver is not something that ordinary people can use. It doesn't mean that they are not qualified, but the "face value" is too large. Ordinary people generally use copper coins and broken silver.

"Where is the official bank!"

Zhu Er stared and asked loudly.

The little woman was frightened, and Zhang Zhuo quickly said: "It was given by a foreigner."

Immediately, he told the matter again. After the little woman returned, she told Zhang Cripple what had happened. Zhang Cripple's idea at the time was not to pay off the debt, but to gamble with money.

But this pawned daughter-in-law defended her desperately. He was already thin and had inconvenient legs and feet, so he couldn't grab it for a while~IndoMTL.com~ had to compromise and redeem the person first.

Outsiders, rich... Zhu Er glanced around, suddenly slapped the table and shouted, saying:

"Bitch, you are so courageous, you dare to steal my money while I sleep. Tie the two of them to the woodshed."

The complexion of Zhang Zhuzi and his wife changed drastically, they were dragged down crying and locked into the wood shed.

"The second master is brilliant!"

The subordinates said hehe: "Where did Zhang Cripple come from thirty-two? No one believed it. He must have stolen it from Erye."

"Second Lord, that little daughter-in-law..."

A subordinate was salivating. What Zhu Er said just now, they kept in mind.

"What anxious, everyone is locked up, afraid to run away?"

Zhu Er frowned and reprimanded: "Things that are not promising. Go and check the outsider to see what it is. Hey, if you can take out thirty taels, you can take out three hundred taels. , And even more."

...........

In the best inn in the county, Xu Qi'an was carrying a jug of wine in his hand. The warmed wine made the jug also warm.

The princess was sitting at the table, and there was also a jug of wine in her hand. There was **** and spices in the wine. She was drinking well or not. After drinking a few sips, her face was red and drunk, but she was a bit charming.

"The sages and sages in ancient times are lonely, only the drinkers keep their names..."

He said softly.

"Good poem!"

The princess praised him, and looked at him: "What about the next?"

Xu Qi'an didn't have a good air: "The following is gone."

He drank slowly, "I'll go to the little woman's house and take a look. Since I helped, I will help to the end."

The princess said with emotion: "In fact, I shouldn't care. There are a lot of troubles along the way."
