As expected, the fox hesitated for a while, looking left and right at the two people in front of him.
Zhou Xiaozhou always couldn't understand what it wanted to express. It was very difficult to communicate, and he was really tired.
This passerby was very good at communicating with various animals and said: "Come home with me. I have many friends at home who can play with you..."
Zhou Xiaozhou was annoyed when he dared to poach him, and said disdainfully: "When I go to your house, I'll put him in a cage, right?"
Upon hearing this, the fox immediately turned around and hid in the car.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
The passerby was very angry, grabbed him and said, "I'll give you a tael of silver and sell me this fox."
"roll."
Zhou Xiaozhou pushed him away.
"Whose slave are you? If you dare to go against our Ten Thousand Beasts Villa, you will be doomed!"
This man thought he was a servant of a wealthy family and refused to take him seriously. "You can't go anywhere until you hand over the fox."
Zhou Xiaozhou kicked him hard and knocked him to the ground before he was able to escape.
However, when the carriage arrived at the city gate, it was blocked again.
This guy was waiting here with a few government officials, pointing at him and saying, "This is the man who stole the spiritual beast from our Ten Thousand Beasts Villa. Please arrest him and punish him."
If you don't sell it to him, you'll be stealing from them, and you'll have to be arrested and imprisoned.
It is easy for locals with some connections to deal with an outsider. They can just accuse you and leave you unable to defend yourself.
The yamen servant has already had an affair and won't give you a chance to defend yourself until you catch it.
He was taken to the yamen, and he was kneaded as much as he wanted. All his belongings were missing, and someone had to pay to redeem them.
Many times, the yamen are more ruthless than bandits.
This is a win-win cooperation that benefits both sides, and government officials usually like to do this kind of thing, which is very profitable.
The leading government servant waved his hand majestically: "Capture him."
"etc."
Zhou Xiaozhou pushed away the rushing government servant and was immediately annoyed, "Do you believe his nonsense?
I said that I stole his mother last night and now I am his stepfather. Do you believe it? "
This metaphor made everyone around me happy.
The man in Ten Thousand Beasts Villa wanted to beat him up: "You bitch, what nonsense are you talking about!"
"Aren't you talking nonsense too!
The uncle has just arrived in the royal city and doesn’t even know where Ten Thousand Beasts Villa is. How dare you say that the uncle went to your house and stole something? Who has ever said such nonsense to you! "
When he shouted, more and more people gathered around him, and the city gate was blocked.
The man from Ten Thousand Beasts Villa was a little annoyed and signaled to the government officials to arrest him quickly: "Don't block the road, take him back and interrogate him carefully."
A trial is nothing more than a beating.
The yamen servant said: "If you stole it, just go to the yamen and tell me clearly. If it wasn't you, I would let you go..."
"Pooh."
Zhou Xiaozhou sneered, "Is there room for others to talk after entering the Yamen?"
"That's right. No matter whether you are justified or not, no one can get out until you get out of the yamen."
Some passers-by started to curse, "Everyone of them is a human-eater without spitting out their bones. They are worse than animals."
"Yes, you must not just go to the Yamen casually. If you have evidence, tell it clearly on the spot. If you enter the Yamen without evidence, you will be in trouble. We have seen this a lot..."
"The Yamen is the most untrustworthy, and I won't be able to get rid of it..."
This kind of thing resonates with many people, and even more people are making noise.
The city gate was blocked, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the city gate official, who came with a team of sergeants to evacuate the crowd.
This kind of thing can only be done by forcibly arresting people. If it gets too big, both parties will be in trouble.
Zhou Xiaozhou was evacuated outside the city. The man from Wanshou Villa followed him and said loudly: "Our spirit beast is in his car. The next time he calls, the spirit beast will come out. This is enough to prove that this spirit beast is It belongs to our Ten Thousand Beasts Villa."
As for spiritual beasts, there are some psychics, but they may not be very intelligent. He has the ability to communicate with spiritual beasts, so it will definitely be difficult to tell who the fox belongs to.
Of course, it's not Zhou Xiaozhou's.
He never regarded the fox as something personal to him, but as a friend.
If the fox is really summoned by him, he will have to go to jail.
Being imprisoned in the royal city, he was unfamiliar with the place where he lived. It was impossible for a scholar to kill him again, so he became depressed.
Zhou Xiaozhou's mind changed rapidly and he said coldly: "Don't think that others are easy to provoke, you'd better think clearly about the consequences. If you start to make trouble again, I will drag your mother to the street, find a dog to ride on her, and give you four The stepfather of legs..."
The spectators burst into laughter again.
"Boy, I was happy for a while, but I regretted not stopping crying in time."
The man from Ten Thousand Beasts Villa stared at him with evil eyes, and made some animal sounds from his mouth, summoning the fox.
Zhou Xiaozhou was really a little nervous because of him. If the fox came out at this time, he would be unable to defend himself.
Nothing appears.
Someone said: "The ghost is screaming, isn't it summoning a fox?
A fox did run out of the car before and had already run out of the city. "
Ran?
The man from Ten Thousand Beasts Villa grabbed Zhou Xiaozhou angrily and said, "Get it back quickly."
Zhou Xiaozhou retorted: "Didn't you say it's from your family? You can call her back to your family, so there's no need for others to find her."
The man from Ten Thousand Beasts Villa whispered: "I'll give you ten taels of silver."
Zhou Xiaozhou slapped his hand away and asked: "How much?"
He came closer and whispered this: "Twenty taels, don't be greedy, no more..."
"Twenty taels?"
The person with good intentions came closer to listen and loudly announced the price, "This guy is really not a good bird. If he doesn't sell it, he will cause others to steal..."
"beat him."
In the commotion, many people joined in the fight, and several government officials also received a heavy beating.
The people's resentment is not light, and the hostility is getting stronger day by day.
Wu Shengguo is not necessarily a peaceful place, so no wonder some people rebelled.
Sometimes people are forced to rebel.
If you die unjustly, you might as well do it with a knife.
Rebellion is a serious crime that can be punished by execution. Even so, some people do it, and it is not without reason.
If Zhou Xiaozhou is wronged, he may be killed with a knife. Fortunately this time, there were many passers-by who helped him. He took advantage of the chaos and drove away, far away from the place of right and wrong. Naturally, he also gave up the idea of taking a group of guests away in the royal city.
When they reached a relatively remote place, the fox ran into the car again and started gesticulating again.
"Keep your gestures simple and slow down."
The fox slowed down and gestured to follow it.
In a hidden corner, a seriously injured man was found.
Zhou Xiaozhou was speechless for a while: "You want me to save him?"
The fox nodded repeatedly.
The man also raised his hand weakly: "Help me."
Knife wounds.
He was also wearing prison clothes and carrying torture instruments. He was obviously a felon who had escaped from prison.
Zhou Xiaozhou was speechless for a while. Wasn't this causing trouble for himself?
He had just been innocently arrested by those government officials, and his sense of government was even worse, so he helped this man into the carriage.
"There is no medicine..."
"Leave the royal city first, as far away as possible. We will hunt down this area soon."
Zhou Xiaozhou had no choice but to rush on his way at dusk: "How long will it take before someone is chasing me?"
"It's hard to say. I killed two escort officials nearby, and their bodies may be found tomorrow. We probably have one night.
Find a place to open the torture instruments..."
"How to open it?"
"Go there at night, find a blacksmith shop, and give a high price..."
As soon as money was mentioned, Zhou Xiaozhou's heart ached immediately: "Are you rich?"
"Of course not."
"I do not have either."
