Chapter 28: Stealing Horses Also Stealing People(3/3)
And since Nawen Shengsheng had his tongue cut off, he only felt unbearable pain and didn't understand what these people were saying. Therefore, he didn't know that he was on the verge of being dismembered, and he didn't know that he would be beaten.
Beat him to death...but what if he heard it?
The dozens of people who came down from the battlefield were no longer the disciples of a county magistrate a few months ago. They were said to have a heart of steel and sharp means. Even after the binding was completed, they simply put on cloth bags and directly tied up the Dong'e County people.
The order was hung under the eaves of the old house of the former Prime Minister Wang Du of Dong'a County... Immediately, everyone, including the chief of the pavilion, picked up sticks and beat the dignified county magistrate to death with sticks.
Under the eaves of the house.
Seeing that Wen Shengsheng was weak and stopped struggling just by counting the bag of sticks, everyone still felt unbearable grief and anger, and their anger was difficult to bear. But they couldn't beat another corpse, so as not to stain Wang Du's virtue, so they all stopped.
He remained speechless... But at this moment, the leader of Wang Du's confidants suddenly stepped forward, wiped a handful of Wen Shengsheng's blood from the ground with his hand, and then illuminated it directly under the corridor of the old house with the light of a torch.
There is a line written on the pillar:
The murderer is a guest of the king of Dong'a, and Hanoi's Chaoge is poisonous!
After writing so fiercely, Yu Du finally let go of the suffocation he had been holding in his chest for a long time since the battle between Cangting and Dongwuyang.
Seeing this, the others followed suit. Fifteen people in front and behind them, even though they were illiterate, begged others to finish writing these words hand by hand, and then returned to the courtyard... But they felt empty in their hearts, and they didn't know where to go!
"Brother Yu." The pavilion chief surnamed Wang thought over and over again, then simply stared at Yu Du and said bluntly. "Let's do this kind of thing and stop thinking about dividing the money and going home. You have an idea.
Fan has avenged my clan uncle again... I will let you go!"
The other thirteen people also responded immediately. Just as Wang Tingzhang said, by coming up with ideas to avenge Wang Du, Chaoge Yudu was already the leader of these dozen people.
And Yu Du also did his part: "The king asked us to live well before he died, so we must live well, and you all entrust your future to me. As the king's confidant during his lifetime, I have nothing to say... The current situation is nothing more than this.
Join the Yellow Turbans or become bandits! I thought about it over and over again. The officers and soldiers are so powerful that the Yellow Turbans cannot go to Jizhou and Yuzhou, because if they go, they will die. Besides, there is no shortage of people in those two places. We are ten
Even if a few people go there, they won’t be taken seriously.”
Everyone nodded.
"If you want to be a bandit." Yu Du continued. "There are only two places. One is to go to my hometown Hanoi in Hebei, and the north of Hanoi is the Taihang Mountains; the other is to go east to Mount Tai... What do you think?
Where are we going?"
The advantages and disadvantages of these two places are obvious. To go to Taihang Mountain, the leader Yu Du is naturally familiar with the place, but he has to cross a river and pass through an area densely populated by Han troops to reach it; and to go to Taishan Mountain, it is the other way around. Life there is
The place is unfamiliar, but there are no obstacles on the way.
As a result, the dozen or so people were talking endlessly, until the pavilion chief Wang suddenly mentioned something: "I heard several county officials mention it in the pavilion a few days ago, saying that the Qingzhou Yellow Turban was arrested by the local people just after the incident.
Due to the government's suppression, Zhang Niujiao, one of Qingzhou's Yellow Turban commanders, has now fled to Mount Tai to settle down temporarily. If he was in Mount Tai..."
Yu Du's heart moved, and he immediately said: "Then let's go to Mount Tai to find him!"
"Why don't you go to Hanoi, your hometown, Brother Yu?" People around him were extremely puzzled.
"Since we are no longer worthy of the world, we will risk our lives to do something for the world to see!" Yu Du looked around with a torch and replied sternly. "After this battle, I'm afraid everyone will...
It can be seen that the main force of the Yellow Turban will be defeated sooner or later, but judging from that battle, the Yellow Turban banner is still used by the poor people! In this case, why not follow him while Zhang Niujiao is in trouble and borrow him in the future?
The banner stirs up the world, and showing my name to the world can be regarded as comforting the soul of the king, that we have not let him down!"
Everyone was silent for a moment and agreed.
So, the fifteen people took their weapons and each packed a small bag of belongings... They didn't bother to take care of the extra things. Then they climbed over the wall at night and strode towards the direction of Mount Tai, surrounded by the new leader Yu Duangran under the moon.
And went.
It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day that Dong'e County, which had not taken adequate precautions, discovered Wen Shengsheng's bruised and swollen body, and finally had no choice but to invite Cheng Yu to take charge.
However, in such a situation, what can Cheng Yu do? It is nothing more than directing everyone to collect the corpse and hand it over to the family of the county magistrate Wenren in the county temple, so that they can help the spirit return home and bury him alive;
The officials quickly wrote official documents and reported to Gongsun Xun, who was in charge of the overall situation in Yangzhijie, Dongwu, Hebei... The prefect of Dongjun fled to other counties at the beginning of the chaos, and was already punished by the court!
The body was carried out, and most of the people covered their noses and fled outside the courtyard, but Cheng Yu still stood in the courtyard full of blood, sticks, money and silk, staring at the names of the people on the corridor in trance.
Xue Fangzhan was trembling and bowed to Cheng Yu to report.
"It's not me!" Before the other party could speak, Cheng Yu said with a dark face without looking back.
Xue Fang smiled bitterly for a moment.
"It's really not me." Cheng Yu glanced at Xue Fang, and then let out a long sigh. "Has Mr. Xue ever seen a flood?"
Xue Fang immediately shook his head.
"The Yellow River embankment is impregnable. It's normal if you haven't seen it before." Cheng Yufu turned back and stared at those famous quotes with blood on people. "But I am older, and when I was a boy, I saw a flood in Dayeze, Jiyin County... At that time
When the flood came, the sky roared, and the mud and sand fell down, which was overwhelming. However, as long as you hid on high ground in advance, you would not be swallowed by the flood. Indeed, few people died that day! But after the flood receded, the ground was covered with mud, corpses, dragons, snakes, and insects.
They all hid in it, and suddenly there was a big epidemic, and ten rooms were empty!"
"What Mr. Zhong De means is..." Xue Fang suddenly looked at the line of words in front of him. As Wang Du's confidant, he also recognized Yu Du. "At this time, the flood had just receded, and dragons and snakes were already rising together, and insects were flying.
Are you dancing wildly?"
"Do you also know that the flood has just receded?" Cheng Yu's face was ashen, he waved his sleeves suddenly, and walked away with his head held high. "What is this? In the future, dragons and snakes will fight and swarms of insects will cover the sky. It's still early!"
Xue Fang pursed his lips and said nothing, but followed Cheng Yu's footsteps without stopping.
The poem says:
The five thieves suddenly burst out, and everything collapsed and ran away.
Don't use the gods' will to save Hua Chiyuan.
But learning the art of victory is better than having a military base.
Dragons and snakes compete to rise from the land, and fight for blood floating in the Central Plains.
