After a period of deathly silence, Deng Tong and the others all reacted. Everyone couldn't help but burst into rages, and their hearts were full of anger and dissatisfaction with Zhou Ming.
This person surnamed Zhou is really not interesting. He was having enough fun with the oiran girl downstairs, but he came up to tease them. You do things too fast, can you blame us?
Even if you didn't see it, you should have imagined that we were all at a critical moment, preparing to collectively exert our efforts and impact towards a higher level of life, but in the end we were all destroyed by this kid.
It's nothing more than ruining their good deeds. After all, they are colleagues in the same yamen, so it doesn't hurt to joke around and tease each other.
The key is that Yi Ming is too imprudent in what he does. Doesn't he know that men can't be scared at such a critical moment? At the critical moment when they were fully devoted just now, their souls and bodies were about to be separated. Being frightened by Zhou Yiming, it is very likely that they will never be able to be happy again. This is simply more hateful than killing them.
The government officials knew that their status could not be compared with that of Zhou Ming, so even though they were dissatisfied, they did not dare to confront Zhou Ming. They could only mumble in low voices.
"Captain Zhou is really going too far. You can't joke like that."
"For just a moment, I almost felt like I was going to die."
Deng Tong and Xia Dezhang's mood was like a roller coaster. They had hit rock bottom just now. Now that they saw Zhou Yiming's true face, both of them breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, they were also angered by what Zhou Ming had done.
Although Deng Tong had always known that his strength was too far behind that of Zhou Ming, and if he went against him, he would not get any good results, but at this moment, he could not care so much and rushed forward to question Yi Ming. .
"Zhou, what do you mean? You've had enough fun downstairs and having sex with the oiran girl, and you don't care about our lives at all?
Do you know that what you did just now almost scared us to death? "
Xia Dezhang also joined the battlefield. He rubbed his belly and said angrily: "Brother Zhou, originally we had a good relationship and I didn't intend to speak, but what you did today is really too much. , look at my belly, it was so frightened by you that it almost exploded just now."
Seeing someone taking the lead, other government officials also joined in criticizing Zhou Ming.
"Captain Zhou, if you scare me, I will probably lose my ability to be happy. When the time comes, my family will be cut off. Can you bear this responsibility?"
"My heart almost jumped out of my chest just now, Captain Zhou, you have to compensate for my losses!"
After Zhou Yiming teased these people, he had already finished speaking out in his heart and was in a good mood. However, when he saw that these people did not reflect on his faults at all, but instead blamed himself for such a trivial matter, this made him angry again. stand up.
He said sternly: "Can you still be considered human beings if you can say these things?"
Deng Tong and the others were all stunned. They were all wondering. Although Zhou Yiming usually liked to joke and tease them, on the whole, he was a person who could distinguish right from wrong and was reasonable. If it was really his fault this time, He should feel that he was wronged and would not scold them so confidently.
The crowd's momentum was lowered. Deng Tong was about to refute on behalf of everyone, but heard Zhou Ming continue to speak.
"Let me ask you, didn't you hear the fierce fighting that broke out downstairs just now?"
Now it was Deng Tong's turn to be speechless, because they had all heard the fighting sound just now, and Xia Dezhang immediately planned to lead everyone down to have a look, but Deng Tong listened to the words of a flower-filled girl. He stepped forward to stop everyone and said sincerely that it was okay.
The top leader said so, Xia Dezhang and the others had no choice but to go back to their rooms to rest.
Hearing Zhou Ming's question at this moment, everyone understood in their hearts that there was definitely something fishy about the sudden sound of fighting just now, and something big might have happened. And there was definitely a reason why Zhou Ming came up to punish them so angrily. It's just that no one dares to ask about this reason now.
Xia Dezhang took the lead and turned his attention to Deng Tong. The other small government officials also followed suit and all stared at Deng Tong.
Deng Tong secretly complained in his heart, you people, don't be so heartless. I stopped you just now for your own good.
Zhou Ming's martial arts cultivation is so high that if he encounters danger, he can easily deal with enemies with low martial arts cultivation. When encountering opponents with extremely high martial arts cultivation, even if they are a group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals running to help, they will not be able to do anything. It won't have any effect, but you may lose your life in vain.
What I did just now was not to harm you, but to save you. You must not betray me at this time, otherwise you will have a hard time in the future.
Zhou Yiming saw everyone's eyes turned to Deng Tong, and he immediately understood that it might be Deng Tong's idea that they refused to save him.
Under the murderous gazes of everyone, Deng Tong hurried forward to save himself and said: "We did hear some noises just now, but they were not very intense, so we didn't take them seriously. Brother Zhou, what happened? ?”
When the officials and Xia Dezhang saw what Deng Tong said, they all showed disdain and thought to themselves, Deng Tong, are you sorry? The sound just now was so loud that it could collapse the entire Huamanlou, but you still said no. It was intense and shameless to the extreme.
Zhou Yiming sneered and said with a complicated expression: "Inspector Deng, you can tell such an exaggerated lie, I really admire you.
Let me tell you clearly, I almost lost my life at the hands of evil people just now downstairs. "
Everyone was amazed and couldn't help but wonder, how could evil people appear in such a romantic and happy place like Huamanlou? Moreover, Zhou Yiming was clearly chosen by the oiran girl just now, so why did he meet a villain again?
Xia Dezhang was the first to ask: "Brother Zhou, tell me what happened."
Xia Dezhang's caring attitude gave Yi Ming some comfort. He said unhurriedly: "Do you really think I am running for favor because I covet the beauty of the oiran girl?"
No one spoke, they all nodded silently.
Zhou Yiming smiled bitterly and continued: "You guys really underestimate me, Zhou Ming. I have a good wife at home. Inspector Deng and Captain Xia have also met her. She is unparalleled in beauty, and in terms of martial arts cultivation, she is also They are no different from me. The last time I met Feng Shiying in the Yamen, I almost died on the spot. Thanks to my wife arriving in time and working with me to kill Feng Shiying.
Let’s not talk about how excellent my wife is. Just because she saved my life, I can’t come to a place like this and do anything that I feel sorry for her. "
What Zhou Ming said was well-founded and highly credible, because it was all the truth. While everyone nodded in belief, they all envied Zhou Ming. After all, a woman as outstanding as his wife might not be found in the world. The second one is out.
"The reason why I ran for the courtesan's favor," Zhou Ming continued, "is actually because I found many doubts about the courtesans and wanted to check to see if there was anything wrong with this person.
The final result of the investigation was exactly as I expected. The oiran girl was disguised as a barbarian spy. He was a man whose real name was Hua Mian Lang. "
What Zhou Yiming said shocked Deng Tong and the others. It was unbelievable that there was a spy from the northern barbarians in Huamanlou. What was even more unimaginable was that this spy disguised himself as an oiran girl and was the most lively in Huijing. The beauty of Hua Man Lou is famous far and wide, but no one can figure out his identity.
Later, Yi Ming told Deng Tong and the others how he saw through the Flowery Wolf's conspiracy, how he fought with him for hundreds of rounds, and how he managed to survive from a desperate situation and turn defeat into victory despite almost losing his life.
The more Deng Tong and Xia Dezhang listened, the more frightened they became. During the entire narration, each of them was frightened and broke into a cold sweat.
After Zhou Ming's story ended, Deng Tong and the others wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads and muttered in their hearts, no wonder Zhou Ming was so angry just now. It turned out that there was a reason.
Deng Tong regretted that his intestines were turning green. Just now, Yi Ming was alone downstairs facing a powerful enemy, his life or death uncertain, but these losers were living happily upstairs, not caring about Yi Ming's life or death.
This means that Zhou Yiming is destined to turn defeat into victory at the last critical moment. If he loses, the consequences will be disastrous.
Because Yi Ming was currently the person with the highest level of martial arts cultivation in Huamanlou. Once the spy eliminated Yi Ming, the others would be meat on the chopping board and could be slaughtered by him.
And officials like Deng Tong and others were obviously the first people the spy wanted to kill.
Thinking of this, Deng Tong and others were filled with guilt. Everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to look into Yi Ming's eyes.
After Zhou Yiming told the whole process of catching the flower-faced wolf, he was still angry in his heart, and he was even more angry when he saw the low-brow look of these people.
"I narrowly escaped death down there. If we are brothers, if you hear the sounds of fighting, even if you don't dare to fight the enemy with me, you should come downstairs and take a look, right?"
Deng Tong and all the government officials lowered their heads, and everyone remained silent, letting Zhou Yiming scold them.
"I don't expect you to be of much help to me. At the very least, if you go downstairs and take a look, if you find something is wrong, you can help me and create momentum. I will have some confidence in my heart."
Zhou Ming became more and more angry as he talked.
"But you bastards pretend not to hear, and don't care about my life or death! Every one of you still calls your mother and me brothers, but at the critical moment you don't even dare to fart!"
Xia Dezhang and the other government officials felt aggrieved after being scolded by Zhou Ming. It wasn't that they didn't want to go downstairs to take a look and help Zhou Ming, but they were stopped by Deng Tong.
At this time, Yi Ming was furious. Of course Xia Dezhang and the others did not dare to explain anything, so they could only vent all their anger on Deng Tong. Each of them glared at Deng Tong.
