On February 2, the dragon raises its head.
When the gate of Youtufang behind the towering archway suddenly opened again, several mule carts came through. However, facing these mule carts, the Wuhou and guards on duty seemed relaxed and unprepared, and even took the initiative to greet them with some excitement.
Because, on these mule carts, women with heavy make-up and beautiful flowers were sitting clearly. Therefore, before people got close, they could hear the singing of warblers and swallows. And many of them were quite familiar with these Wuhou and guards, or greeted them as if they were familiar with each other.
For a moment, even the air in front of the small gate building of Youtufang seemed to become a little charming and fragrant: Despite this, some Wuhou, who seemed to be full of reluctance, still followed the urging of the wall. These women were searched carefully.
He was so serious that he wanted to bring these women, and carefully dug out all the makeup boxes and handbags containing bits and pieces. After confirming that everything was correct one by one, he reluctantly waved these women away.
Because today is one of the four festivals of the year. Therefore, Tufang will also introduce some "professionals" from Pingkangnanli in accordance with the practice that has been followed for many years in order to meet the needs of Tufang for festival celebrations, singing, dancing, entertainment, and entertainment.
Of course, during this period, these women who come here to make extra money don't mind doing the business of being apprentice guards. Therefore, even those guards, Wuhou and guards who already have families are full of expectations.
Because not everyone has the spare money to go to Pingkangli, let alone spend the usual money to find half-open doors and local prostitutes to enjoy the hospitality of Pingkangli. Therefore, amidst the laughter and laughter, these women were quickly sent to various buildings.
However, after sending everyone off one by one, the mule carts finally stopped in a remote courtyard. The inconspicuous-looking drivers had solemn expressions on their faces, and they dispersed to all sides with extra vigilance and caution. Then, someone else got under the car and started tinkering.
Immediately after a few noises, several hidden compartments were removed from the bottom of the mule cart; as the contents were dumped to the ground, what appeared to be a handful of various weapons of different lengths; and then they were silenced by these people. They were wrapped in loud cloth and sent out of the courtyard respectively.
Not long after, in the most famous carpentry workshop in the east area of Youtufang, Jiang Lao, a local snake, and several of his apprentices were besieged by strong men armed with maces, tongs, and iron forks, and suffered bloody injuries. They fell to the ground one after another.
Finally, when the dying Jiang Lao raised his head, he vomited blood and asked in a hissing voice:
"Why? It's obviously been agreed upon..."
"Because, that's just the rule for an old guy like you!"
As a former companion, a big man with a thick beard sneered at him:
"Since I don't have to hide in this bad place anymore! Why should I continue to follow it?"
"After all, I have to lend you your life to make this place completely chaotic!"
Then, someone took out the charcoal from the stove and scattered it among the sawdust and shavings that had been swept aside; then it spread to all kinds of woodworking equipment and semi-finished household items, and finally ignited into a blazing fire; It turned into panicked cries for help from neighbors.
At the same time, fires were ignited in almost several places; it was the apparent residence of many local snake leaders in the East District of Youtufang. Therefore, the urban foxes and rats who were originally responsible for being active in the market also started running around like they had lost their backbone.
As more and more residents joined in the process of collecting water and demolishing houses to put out the fire, someone finally discovered that, except for a few patrolmen running around in chaos, the Marquis Wu and the guards who were supposed to be here were But no one was seen.
However, in the office of Wuhou's Administrative Office, who was in charge of the eleven lanes (community area) and Wutiao Street in the East District, the public servants and Wuhou fell to the ground in a mess, foaming at the mouth, and their faces were twisted with a look of death.
Quick-footed Xiao Ao, who had regained his original appearance, was sitting on one of the corpses with a strange smile on his face.
Because, for the first time, he discovered that these high-ranking tolerant men, who could crush ants like him with just a few clicks of their fingers, would also die, be frightened, panic and beg for mercy; and There won't be any more differences.
"You can't blame us for this. This is the consistent rule in the apprenticeship."
But a short, fat man who was still alive still shouted:
"I am determined not to let a person like you, who has no reason, be left outside, not even one of them. I am also following orders!"
A moment later, in the bustling street, Xiao Ao, who had put on a soap suit again, passed by the residents and patrolmen who came to report the news; there was a fierce exclamation and scream. The sound was completely left behind.
"It's not good, they're all dead."
"Everyone in the custody room is gone..."
Not long after, Xiao Ao came to the backyard of Donkey Head Winery. There was an old small building there, which was also used as a private business place for the women who made a living in the wine shop. Therefore, being familiar with the road, he quickly found the narrow room where the little bird was.
"Quieer...queer"
At this moment, Xiao Ao was contrary to his usual submissive and cautious attitude. Instead, his eyes were full of arrogant and crazy emotions. He kicked open the thin door without hesitation and rushed in.
Immediately, there was a commotion of screams and screams; one of the naked old men was so frightened that he hurriedly crawled out while rubbing each other in panic. And the woman with a beautiful body and a face full of fatigue and dust came out.
"Qier, it's time for us to go"
Then, Xiao Ao tried his best to smile at her:
"Let's go? Where can we go?"
The woman named Que'er, who was showing signs of premature aging due to hard work, was lying on her back a little indifferently and said:
"You can go anywhere, as long as you can get out of this dirty place!"
Xiao Ao, on the other hand, stretched out his hand to pull her.
"No, we can't leave!"
Then, unexpectedly, the woman broke away from his hand; and then she retreated and leaned against the wall, showing resistance and panic.
"Why?"
Xiao Ao was stunned for a moment, and the burning light in his eyes seemed to dim a little:
"Because I don't want to live a hard life anymore!"
The woman hissed:
"Not like my child, nor like you, who has no status and can only hang out in this apprenticeship and never get ahead."
"..."
Xiao Ao was stunned for a moment, and wanted to open his mouth to explain; then there was the sound of the floorboards going up and down, and a sturdy man with tattoos on his arms and a bright forehead led people to rush up the corridor and block the door. Xiao Ao angrily yelled:
"What a dog-killer has come here to run wild!"
Then, Xiao Ao raised his hand and fired the arrow from the short crossbow, hitting the throat of the strong man who was charging fiercely. In an instant, he covered his neck, which was pumping blood, and fell to the ground. Immediately, there was a roar like a broken gong downstairs:
"Dead people!"
"Dead people!"
"Four heads were killed!"
"Quier, don't be afraid. Now there is a noble person who is willing to help me and promised me benefits afterwards."
Xiao Ao then raised his short crossbow and signaled:
However, the woman named Xiaoque'er suddenly jerked away and tried to escape from him; but he stopped her again, pulling her away and saying sadly.
"Quer, why, why don't you believe me?"
"Because I never believed you!"
The woman who couldn't break free seemed to say something indiscriminately, but Xiao Ao was shocked in an instant. He couldn't help but loosen his grip on his sleeves, and the woman still stumbled away and ran away, and suddenly lost her footing and screamed in pain. Roll down the stairs.
However, more strong men rushed up to the small building noisily again; a moment later, Xiao Ao, covered in blood, could only jump out of the window, limping and fleeing amid the chase and roar.
And on the long street leading to Tufang East District, it has become a temporary paradise where people cover their heads and cover their faces, smashing, smashing, looting and burning wantonly.
From time to time, people would hold various objects and flee from the shops and restaurants along the street; and then, amid the shouting and crying, the evil would throw fire into the room to destroy the traces of crime.
However, there was a group of Wuhou dressed in black robes and crimson crotch, like fish swimming upstream in a stream; they faced the noisy crowd who were full of commotion and turmoil in the street, and drove them away with chops and chops. .
However, if anyone notices the weapons in their hands, they will find that they are not the knives, sticks, and spears that are used by Wuhou and patrolmen, and they also have fresh blood stains from the fight.
Suddenly someone rushed out of the street and met them; and gasped:
"Master, it seems that there are still people doing ordinary things with us."
"Several Wuhou shops were burned and smashed before we even got there."
"But it doesn't matter!"
The leader of the workshop smiled sadly:
"Anyway, the more chaotic the better, it's just convenient for us; we just need to step up our pace to prevent that person from escaping and it will no longer be easy to find."
On top of the Drum Tower in another city that was besieged by rioters, there were only a dozen guards, Wuhou, and patrols who were pale and panic-stricken, and some of them were roaring loudly:
"What exactly did you do when you were on duty?"
"I, I just sold a favor to the daughter of Ma Dutou in Wannian County so that she could bring some bedding and sundries in."
"What kind of favor? Are you afraid that you have taken a fancy to her body? Have you already taken advantage of it?"
"You bastard, how can you take advantage of it so easily? This is letting someone send a fatal evil star in."
Downstairs, the corpses of many Wuhou and princes who had been beaten to death in the chaos had been stripped naked like pigs and hung up on the wall.
At least, after losing the awe of these everyday apprentices who were not very qualified defenders of order, the ugly side that had been suppressed in the hearts of many people was also magnified.
