Diao Mao smiled "hehe" and picked up several strands of twisted animal sinews that he had prepared. A dozen evil slaves followed him, holding these animal tendons, and slowly approached Liu Yu, but they looked like It was approaching a tiger, and no one dared to be the first to step forward.
Liu Yu stood there with his hands spread out, standing proudly, motionless. Seeing these people trembling in fear and not daring to come forward, Liu Yu sneered and said: "You cowards, grandpa is standing here and you dare not come up even if you are tied. Do you want grandpa to tie him up?"
Diao Mao's heart moved, and he threw the animal sinew in his hand at Liu Yu's feet: "Liu Yu, you tie your hands first, otherwise, your mother will suffer again!"
Without saying a word, Liu Yu picked up the animal sinews and wrapped it around his wrist a few times, forming a tight knot. Now Diao Mao and the other evil slaves were relieved, and they rushed up and tied Liu Yu from the head. It was tied up to the toes and tied directly into a brown bun. Diao Kui smiled and said: "Interesting, I'm afraid those hunters don't tie the beasts like bears and tigers so tightly."
There were blood marks on Liu Yu's body from these beef tendons, and cold sweat began to break out on his forehead, but he gritted his teeth and held on, without making a sound, and said calmly: "Okay, Diao Kui, let my mother and brother go. They are of no use to you anymore.”
Diao Kui sneered: "Don't worry, I will do what I promised you, but before I let them go completely, I have to show them what will happen if you offend me!"
Diao Kui waved his hand, and these people escorted Liu Yu out directly, while Diao Mao and other evil servants pushed Liu Daolian, brother Liu Daogui, and the unconscious Xiao Wenshou out of the gambling house. .
It was already bright and it was almost noon. The sound of cicadas outside was heard one after another, and the scorching sun was like fire, shining on the square of Pinglu Village.
But in this place where Tianshi Tao's evangelistic meeting was held not long ago, a wooden stake about one foot high was erected. Liu Yu's upper body was completely naked, and more than a dozen animal sinews were tightly tied around him. There were bloodstains in the well-developed muscles, and as he struggled, these animal sinews became tighter and tighter and deeper.
Thousands of people from Pinglu Village and other surrounding villages have been surrounded. More than 2,000 soldiers brought by Diao Kui formed a human wall to separate the people.
More than twenty steps away from the wooden pile, a temporary small pergola was set up. Brothers Diao Kui and Diao Hong sat proudly on two Hu beds (short stools, similar to later generations of mazas). The era had just emerged, brought by the Hu people from the north, and gradually became popular among the upper classes in the south of the Yangtze River).
Several maids were waving their fans gently, sending a cool breeze. Diao Kui and Diao Hong were holding watermelons in their hands. While eating, they looked at Liu Yu under the scorching sun, with mockery and sneers on their faces. .
The skin on Liu Yu's mouth was peeled off from the sun. He had been tied here for two hours. It was the time when the sun was at its worst. Diao Kui seemed to be enjoying the process of torturing himself in this way. He had not even been tortured yet, but , then, when more people come, Diao Kui will start to attack himself.
Diao Kui stood up slowly. There were already a lot of discussions around the square, all expressing sympathy for Liu Yu. As more and more people gathered, the voices became louder and louder, even though these villagers did not know what was happening. Nothing, but you can tell the good guys and the bad guys at a glance.
Diao Kui cleared his throat and said loudly: "Dear fellow villagers in Jingkou, today, as part of my routine inspection, I inspected the four townships, but I found that in the Jinmantang Gambling House, there were people who refused to repay their debts, and were acting ruthlessly and trying to cause trouble. , Fortunately, I brought soldiers to capture this man, this gambler who refused to pay back his debts, is the man tied to the pillar, the former head of Suanshan Township, Liu Yu!"
As soon as this statement came out, there were voices of disbelief and doubt around him: "How can Brother Liu be such a person? It's impossible!"
"Brother Liu has been winning money these days, hasn't he? Even I know, how can I owe gambling debts!"
"Chief Diao, have you made a mistake? Brother Liu is not this kind of person. We can jointly provide guarantee!"
Diao Kui shook his head and sighed. In addition to being ruthless, this person was able to become the governor. He also had a natural talent for acting. The arrogance and arrogance he had in the gambling house just now is gone. , he waved his hand and made a downward gesture, signaling everyone to keep quiet, and then said hypocritically: "Gambling can make people lose their minds and lose their judgment. Liu Yu has been winning money very smoothly these days, and he thinks too highly of himself. As a result, I bet against a master, bet 20,000 yuan at once, and lost everything!"
Having said this, he took out the debt contract from his arms and waved it in all directions: "Here is Liu Yu's debt note. It has his fingerprints on it. If you don't believe it, you can ask Liu Yu Tell yourself, do you owe 20,000 yuan?!"
Liu Yu instinctively wanted to retort, but at a glance he saw Diao Qiu in the corner with dozens of soldiers, holding down his mother and two younger brothers. Their mouths had been stuffed with cloth. , unable to move. If he refutes Diao Kui's face here again, it will only make his relatives suffer more, which he absolutely cannot accept.
So Liu Yu could only say against his will: "Yes, I lost the money, and I am willing to admit defeat. I, Liu Yu, owe the gambling house 20,000 yuan!"
As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar around him. Many people who regarded Liu Yu as a hero sighed and shook their heads. However, some people who usually looked at Liu Yu and were not happy about it, or who had been beaten by him, rejoiced in his misfortune. He said: "Have you seen it? I already knew that this guy only bullied people and would get into trouble sooner or later. He only restrained himself a little in the past two years, but once he entered the casino, his true colors were revealed again."
"That's right, this is called being wild and untamed, huh, why didn't even his father want him since he was a child?"
"Yeah, I have no father, no mother, and lack of discipline. That's it. I thought I could change my past mistakes when I grow up, but it still doesn't work."
"Why don't you just say a few words, Brother Liu? Brother Liu must have some reasons for being like this."
"Er Xizi, don't say nice things to him. We know that Liu Yu usually protects you, but he lost 20,000 yuan this time. Is it possible for you to pay him back?!"
"I, I..." Er Xizi, the country boy who had been bullied by Diao Hong when he first came to Jingkou, tried his best to speak to Liu Yu, but he didn't know how to speak and was so anxious that his face turned red.
Diao Kui was very satisfied with the reaction from the outside world and became more and more excited: "Liu Yu caused trouble in the casino and beat people, and I was arrested on the spot. As a Jingkou parent officer, I have the responsibility to maintain order and protect the environment and the people. As Liu Yu, If you act upright, know the law and break the law, and act arrogantly, you will be punished with an additional penalty. I have ordered that in accordance with the national law, Liu Yu will be whipped three hundred times today as a warning to others!" chapter;
