Qingfengzhai meeting hall.
As the saying goes, if you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing yourself.
There is no such thing as an airtight wall.
"It's really unreasonable! Ren Zhanbiao killed innocent people indiscriminately, acted recklessly, was daring and lawless, and broke the rules of our village. If I didn't kill this person, all the brothers in the village would be like him, so that's fine! "On this day, someone reported to Daheng Feng Delin about Ren Zhanbiao's blood-laundering of the Japanese manor and his affair with the woodcutter girl at the foot of the mountain. He was furious and furious.
"Come here!" Feng Delin shouted.
"Master of the village, what are your orders?" At this time, two sturdy men walked in from outside the door.
"Go! Catch that ignorant Ren Zhanbiao. I want to question him face to face." Feng Delin was still angry.
"Yes!" The two big men agreed, turned and left.
Half an hour later, the two men came back with bruises and swollen faces.
"What's going on with you? Why are you injured?" Feng Delin was shocked when he saw it.
"Reporting to the leader of Dazhai, the two of us went to arrest Ren Zhanbiao under your order. Unexpectedly, Ren Zhanbiao said that he was not guilty, asked why we should take him, and started fighting with the two of us. Unfortunately, we were not him. The opponent was beaten back." One of the big men said.
"What? Rebellious, really rebelled! This Ren Zhanbiao dares to resist my orders, and even dares to fight the people I send. He is really lawless. Does he still have eyes for me, the leader of the stronghold?" Feng Delin heard this. , even more so that he was shaking with anger, "You two are not guilty, please go down and rest, Zhao Wenyuan!"
"Here, please give me the instructions from the leader of the village." Zhao Wenyuan, the captain of the guard, came over.
"Take my Qingfeng Order, mobilize two hundred spearmen, and go immediately to capture Ren Zhanbiao. If he dares to resist again, he will be executed on the spot." Feng Delin said, taking out the Qingfeng Order and handing it to Zhao Wenyuan.
"Yes." Zhao Wenyuan agreed, took the Qingfeng Order, turned around and went out.
About half an hour later, Ren Zhanbiao was kidnapped by Wuhuada.
Feng Delin looked him up and down, and then said: "Ren Zhanbiao, recently, I heard that you have outstanding martial arts skills and first-class marksmanship. Every time you perform a mission, you charge into battle and make great contributions to the development and growth of our village."
"It is the duty of all subordinates to report back to the leader of the village." Ren Zhanbiao said.
"Well, but credit must go to credit and fault to blame. Let me ask you, did you hit the two guards I sent to fetch you just now?" Feng Delin looked at him and asked.
"Yes."
"Did you know they were sent by me?"
"I know." Ren Zhanbiao said.
"Knowing that you still dared to resist arrest and beat them up?"
"Because they were too rude and impolite, I taught them a lesson," Ren Zhanbiao said.
"Ren Zhanbiao, let me ask you, did you burn down the Qianjiazi Manor in Gaoling Town?"
"yes."
"The money devil is a well-known wealthy landowner, rich and fat. Since you burned his manor, what about their family's money?" Feng Delin asked.
"I don't know about this, and I didn't take it. Since the manor has been burned, it should be burned together." Ren Zhanbiao felt nervous when the leader of the village asked him this.
"You didn't take it? I think you put all the money into your own pocket and kept it for yourself, right?" Feng Delin looked into his eyes and asked, his eyes were very stern and intimidating.
"That's absolutely not the case." Ren Zhanbiao said firmly. He knew that if there was even the slightest hesitation at this time, he would die without a burial place.
"Okay, let me investigate this matter later," Feng Delin asked again, "Did you cause the twelve lives of the Qian Guizhi family?"
"Yes, they all deserve to die, I killed them all." Ren Zhanbiao said.
"Presumptuous! Bold!" Feng Delin slammed the table, pointed at him and said, "I really didn't expect that you could be so vicious at such a young age. Even if the money man beat you up, you wouldn't be guilty of death. Not only did you kill After killing him, he also killed his whole family. Let me ask you, what crime did those women and children have, and why did they kill them? Besides, I heard that Butler Zhu was once kind to you. Why did you also kill your own benefactor? Thieves also have their ways, do you understand? Even if we are bandits, Beard, we can't kill everyone. It's better for you. No matter who it is, guilty or not, whether you are kind or not, you just kill them all. You simply have nothing. Human nature, do you know? There has never been a murderous demon like you in our village. What you are doing now, every word and deed, not only represents yourself, but also represents our Qingfeng Village. If you kill innocent people indiscriminately, what will the people think of us?"
Ren Zhanbiao listened silently.
"Let me ask you again, did you have an affair with the woodcutter girl from Zhaojiatun at the foot of the mountain and rape her in her home?"
"Me," Ren Zhanbiao felt a little embarrassed when the leader of the village asked him this in front of everyone.
"I'm asking you, right?" Feng Delin asked.
"Yes, but we are in love, not adultery." Ren Zhanbiao replied.
"Are you in love? You put it nicely!" Feng Delin said, "You have been in the village for so many years. You are not allowed to kill indiscriminately or engage in sexual misconduct. Don't you even understand this rule?"
"I understand, but I heard that in addition to the official wife of the Dazhai Master, there is also a woman outside, named Xiaojiao. I don't know if it is true or not. I wonder if the Dazhai Master is considered lewd?" Ren Zhanbiao asked. .
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Wenyuan and others were also surprised when they heard it, thinking that this boy dared to throw out any words.
"You!" When Feng Delin heard this, he was so angry that he pointed at Ren Zhanbiao and was speechless.
"Master of the Dazhai, you already have a family, and you have other women outside. This is not promiscuous, it is legal, right? And I am in love with the girl who chops firewood. You love me and I don't. Understand, what's our mistake?" Ren Zhanbiao sneered, "Don't you only allow the state officials to set fires, but not the people to light lamps?"
"You! Ren Zhanbiao, good, good! Well done to you! You are so young and your mouth is very expressive. Are you trying to teach me a lesson? After all, you actually said it on my head," Feng Delin was so angry I don't know what to say, "You said something rude, and I'm going to offend you. Is this how your master Tang Dalong taught you how to behave?"
"I'm just telling the truth. If you want to incriminate me, why bother? Since you caught me, I'm just dead today." Ren Zhanbiao said.
"Ren Zhanbiao, your master asked you to face the wall for half a year and reflect on your mistakes. I see that you have no regrets now. Keeping you will be a big disaster in the future. Do you want to die? Okay, I will make it happen today. "You," Feng Delin said angrily, "come on, put him on death row, read out the charges in public three days later, and shoot him according to the rules of the village."
"Yes." Zhao Wenyuan agreed and took Ren Zhanbiao down.
Someone had already informed Tang Dalong about this, and he quickly came over to meet Feng Delin.
Feng Delin became angry when he saw it was him.
"You came just in time. Look at the good apprentice you taught. He kills people, sets fires, and commits adultery with women. He is so bold that he even dares to beat up the guards I sent. He also accuses me in public of the following crimes. You say, a person like this, Can I keep him?" Feng Delin said.
"Master of the village, what you are reprimanding is that it is indeed my lax discipline and failure to educate him well. I have just heard about the incident between him and the woodcutter girl at the foot of the mountain. He does not abide by the rules of the village and should be severely punished. "He," Tang Dalong paused here, then added, "However, since he is still a child, he will inevitably do some outrageous things. He also begs the leader of the village to be merciful and spare his life so that he can change his ways. , take the blame and make meritorious deeds."
"Ren Zhanbiao is eighteen years old. He is an adult and is no longer a child. What doesn't he understand?" Feng Delin said with a long sigh, "You may think it is not easy to train him with all your hard work, but , let me tell you, all your hard work is in vain. He is not a human being, he is a wolf cub. Think about it, since he can kill Butler Zhu who was kind to him, then there is no guarantee that he will be in trouble in the future. I will also deal a cruel blow to your master."
"That's not true. He was just confused for a moment, not to mention that I had already punished him to face the wall and think about it for half a year. He has already realized his mistake." Tang Dalong said.
"He is just putting on a show for you. He has one thing on the surface and another behind his back. Let me tell you an allusion, Mr. Tang, and you will understand." Feng Delin said, "Back then, there was a Zhao Gao in the Qin Dynasty who referred to deer as horses. Have you heard about that one? He once committed a serious crime. According to the provisions of the law at that time, Meng Yi should sentence him to death. However, when the results of the trial were reported to Qin Shihuang, Ying Zheng cherished him as a talented person and a diligent person. He was also proficient in the law and couldn't bear to kill him, so he released him extrajudicially and later reinstated him. What was the result?"
Tang Dalong listened quietly.
Feng Delin took a sip of water and continued: "Qin Shihuang died of illness in the sand dunes during his last tour, but he conspired with Li Si to launch the Sand Dune Coup, forged edicts, granted death to Fusu, and established Qin Shihuang's youngest son Hu Hai as emperor. He was the second emperor of Qin. In this world, this Hu Hai was ignorant, how could he know anything about national affairs? Zhao Gao monopolized power, formed a party for personal gain, imposed excessive taxes and corvee, and became even more onerous. The people were overwhelmed and revolted one after another. He killed Li Si first and then Hu Hai, which led to the Qin Dynasty. Death of the second generation. History is like a mirror, haven't you learned a lesson from it? In my opinion, Ren Zhanbiao is even more sinister and vicious than Zhao Gao, not to mention his ungratefulness. He is both obedient and daring. There is nothing in the world that he would not dare to do. Therefore, in order to avoid future troubles, you don’t need to say anything anymore, and I will be shot in three days. This matter has been decided."
"Master of Dazhai, having said that, Zhao Gao is a eunuch, not a normal person. He is twisted and perverted in his heart. He wants to take revenge on Da Qin. Therefore, he behaves recklessly and harms the country and the people. Ren Zhanbiao is just a miserable child. His parents and sister are all After he died, he was left alone. He had suffered a lot since childhood. He is fundamentally different from the Zhao Gao in history." When Tang Dalong said this, he was moved, lifted his clothes and knelt down to Feng Delin, "I beg you. The leader of Dazhai has a super life, spare his life and give him a chance to change his ways."
"Tang Leader, what can I say about you? You are stubborn and stubborn," Feng Delin said. "To look at a person is not to look at what he says, but to look at what he does. You see Look at him killing people and setting fires, taking human lives, embezzling money, fornicating women, and beating guards. Which thing is serious? Which thing is not enough to behead people? Is there anything else in the world that he dare not do? If he is not punished severely today, In the future, our Qingfeng Village will be destroyed in his hands, so don’t say anything more and retreat quickly, I have to kill him this time!"
