This is really strange, one thing after another.
He wanted to go to Kong Mansion to catch Kong Zhongwu, but he found out that the other party had already run away. After that, he rushed to Weizhuang to look for Xie Agui, but he encountered a class struggle to overthrow the feudal landlord … Two actions, but both of them caused problems. Was the fire in Weizhuang an accident, or was it part of the enemy's conspiracy?
Sun Lang stood outside the Xie manor, feeling the rolling heat coming from the front. Regardless of whether this fire was a conspiracy or a coincidence, the person involved, Xie Agui, was not at the scene of the fire. This was enough to explain some of the problems … The crux of this matter was that Xie Agui was not at home. Was it to avoid him, or was it to avoid the people who set the fire?
Just as he was thinking about what to do next, he heard the old man behind him shouting, "Everyone, spread out and surround this place. It's better to be safe than sorry. Don't let this thief take the opportunity to escape!"
The people responded aggressively, and not long after, Sun Lang saw a group of human soldiers with pitchforks and hoes. They shouted with great enthusiasm and surrounded the burning Xie Mansion, loudly scolding Xie Agui for his sins. It looked like the FFF group was enforcing the law …
Sun Lang did not hide, so he bumped into the people who rushed over. The other party saw someone standing in front of the Xie Mansion, naturally, they were shocked, but when they found out that this guy was not Xie Agui, they were a little relieved. They waved their weapons and threatened: "You … Who are you?!
What are you doing here in the middle of the night?
Let's go! "
The Ranger thought for a moment and made up his mind. He stepped forward and said: "Everyone!
My surname is Zhou, first name is Xun, known as Xun, a herring fruit user, one of the three ninjas of Konoha, known as the Winter Sun Snow Melting Technique, Horse Step Alliance Technique, Xiao Li Flying Dagger, San Cai Huanzhen Palm, the guardian of Yang Cheng, the friend of Nekthus … "
A country bumpkin had never seen the world. How could he remember so many nicknames that he didn't understand?
The leader waved his pitchfork, but seeing that Sun Lang was a man of Jianghu, he didn't dare to be rude and shouted: "Don't talk nonsense!
What are you doing here? "
Sun Lang's face was full of righteousness, just like those hot-blooded young heroes who wielded their swords in Jianghu. His eyes shone with the brilliance of a righteous partner as he said, "To tell you the truth, I've been traveling around the world with a sword on my back. When I arrived at Lu Town, I heard that there are two major disasters in this town. One of them is the evil Kong Zhongwu, and the other is Xie Agui, who has committed all kinds of evil deeds.
[My goodness, he even gave me a nickname …]
When the villagers heard what he said, their hostility dissipated a little. A common enemy could always shorten the distance between them. However … why didn't you f * cking come earlier!
We all risked our lives to come and burn Xie Agui in the middle of the night. After we were done, you jumped out to punish the evildoers?
Thinking of this, everyone's mood became bad again. Some people even lowered their heads, and a cold light flashed in their eyes.
Today, it was Old Master Zhao who took the lead to burn Xie Agui. He had planned it for several months, and everyone had put their bloody handprints on it. They wanted to do something big together … Even if Xie Agui deserved to die, it was not a good thing to set fire and kill people. Originally, everyone had a good agreement. Since they were all family, it was easy to unify their statements. Anyway, Xie Agui did deserve to die. Old Master Zhao also promised that every family would get money after the incident. As long as everyone said that Xie Agui set fire to himself, it would be useless even if the government came. However, they didn't expect that this kid would bump into them. If he went outside and talked nonsense, wouldn't it be …?
Among the villagers, there were a few who were strong and had seen the world. They exchanged glances and were ready to make a move. Since things had come to this, they couldn't let this outsider ruin their plan. They might as well go all the way …
Sun Lang pretended not to see it and cupped his hands in salute. "As the saying goes, those who are unjust are doomed to destruction. I was planning to rush into the Xie Family and cut down Xie Agui with my sword, but I didn't expect to have come here in vain. Hmph … But fortunately, everyone has helped me to take care of this evil creature. The green mountains will not change and the green water will continue to flow. I will take my leave now and chase after Kong Zhongwu. That guy ran away quickly this time, but it won't be so easy next time!"
Kong Zhongwu's name caused a commotion among the villagers. Those who were ready to make a move were also shocked. If there was any big news these days, it would spread all over the village within a few days. Everyone had heard of this Second Master Kong who rose to fame as quickly as Xie Agui. Someone asked, "Could it be that Young Hero has looked for Second Master Kong?"
"Yes!"
Sun Lang smiled proudly. "I used Three Realms Huanzhen Palm and split open the door of his house. There was a fierce battle inside and it was really earth-shattering. Kong Zhongwu was the only one who escaped. What a pity, what a pity!"
Hei Xuan was rolling her eyes at the side. She was still angry but she didn't dare to say anything. She was the one who put in the effort and took the blame. Why did it become your fault when you were bragging?!
Everyone couldn't tell if it was true or false. They didn't dare to act rashly. At this moment, an old but excited voice came from behind. It was the old man who was commanding the FFF ceremony. He clapped his hands and praised loudly, "Good!
Good!
Good!
Young hero, punishing evil and killing one in ten steps. You have the style of an ancient hero. You are really admirable. This old man, Zhao Si, is here to greet you! "
Sun Lang looked at the man with the help of the firelight. He had white hair and a healthy face. He had a strong body and a white beard. He looked like an old gentleman. Judging from his tone, he should be the old man who had lost his family business to Xie Agui. It seemed that the old man was the one who set Xie Agui on fire … The ranger looked at the old man and immediately showed a fake smile. "Old man, you don't have to be so courteous. I am a great hero who serves the country and the people. This is what I should do!"
"Good, good!
Young but not arrogant. Humble and self-conceited. Young hero, you have a bright future ahead of you!
This old man is old, but I can still see such a young hero. My life is not in vain! "
The old man's face was full of admiration. He looked like the village chief who was guiding the young hero to fight the devil. He took a few steps forward and said excitedly, "Young hero, please accept this old man's kowtow for getting rid of this evil for my Weizhuang!"
After saying that, the old man actually knelt down and kowtowed.
Sun Lang waited for the old man to kneel down and kowtow to the ground. Only then did he step forward with a shocked expression and help the old man up. He put on a helpless expression and said, "Wait, old man, where did this come from?
The one who burned Xie Agui to death was not me. It was obviously everyone … "
"You are wrong. Xie Agui was not burned to death!"
Old Master Zhao said loudly, "It's obvious that you, Young Hero Zhou, hated this person so much that you came in with your sword to punish him. You killed this scoundrel in his home, and then burned the Xie family to the ground. Everything was so clean now!
Young Hero Zhou, you got rid of evil for the people and helped our Weizhuang vent our anger. You are really a true hero!
We, the common people, are grateful for this for five years! "
Young Hero Zhou was startled at first. Then, anger appeared on his face and he said, "Old man, you are wrong!
Although I am not talented, I am not a liar.
Forgive me for not accepting the honor of killing Xie Agui. When I do things, one is one, two is two. If I can't kill Xie Agui, killing Kong Zhongwu will be the same! "
"Young hero!"
At this moment, the old man suddenly screamed and knelt on the ground again. He grabbed Sun Lang's hand and said, "Please have mercy on the hundreds of lives in our Weizhuang!"
Among the villagers, there were some clever ones who had already understood the old man's plan. They could not help but admire the old man's wit. He was indeed a scholar and an official … So, they pulled the people around them and knelt down as well. They shouted, "Young hero, please have mercy on the hundreds of lives in our Weizhuang!"
One after another, people came back to their senses and knelt on the ground. Anyway, they had to kneel when they saw officials, masters, and ancestors. They had to kneel more than ten times a year. If they could completely solve the trouble of Xie Agui's matter this time, there was no harm in kneeling. It was better than kneeling in the yamen … Some people who were too stupid to understand saw their companions kneeling around them. Their knees went soft and they also knelt down. Thus, the villagers all knelt down and shouted in unison, "Young hero, please have mercy on the hundreds of lives in Weizhuang!"
Young Hero Zhou seemed to be completely confused. He said helplessly, "Eh … Eh … What are you doing?
Everyone, please get up, please get up … "
Hei Xuan Dang was hiding behind a tree. He leaned against the trunk and watched the show in confusion. When he heard Young Hero Zhou's words, he curled his lips and thought, "Please get up?
You should go and help them up … "
The old man waited for a while, but Sun Lang did not come to help him. He only heard Sun Lang pacing left and right. "You … What are you doing?
Villagers, please explain … "
"Little brats who have never seen the world … Are you scared by this?"
He still maintained his kneeling position and said in a sorrowful voice, "To be honest, Young hero, these days, Xie Agui has been harming the villagers even more. We couldn't stand it anymore and took the risk because we couldn't stand it anymore … I know this is arson and murder. It's against the law. It's reasonable that you don't want to take responsibility …"
Young Hero Zhou said angrily, "Who's afraid of the government?
Why would I care about a bunch of good-for-nothings?
It's just that I've always been magnanimous. If it's not my work, why would I accept it? "
"Yes, yes, yes. Young hero, you're a noble person. It's just that …" The old man said sadly, "The investigation by the government is secondary. We've already discussed it. When the time comes, we'll just say that the Xie family is on fire and cover it up.
It's just that Xie Agui usually has some shady friends in the pugilistic world. Those people are really capable. If they know the truth or come to disturb us, those murderers are inhumane. I'm afraid that if something goes wrong, our village will never have a day of peace again. Maybe the lives of hundreds of people in this village will be at stake … "
He said sorrowfully, "Young hero, you said that these murderers want to stand up for Xie Agui and come to trouble us, the common people. How can we cover it up …"
Young Hero Zhou said angrily, "A bunch of scoundrels … How dare they!"
Hearing this, Old Zhao lowered his head and revealed a deep smile — he had fallen into the trap.
At the same time, Sun Lang stood in front of the burning Xie Residence. He lowered his head and looked at the crowd kneeling before him. A smile appeared on his face.
Idiot, good acting.
