Chapter 2157 Still need to eradicate injustice, eradicate the destination of unrighteous monks and p
The privilege granted by Xiao Tang to Lu Zhishen and Wu Song was this: if the two of them came across a criminal who committed a serious crime again when they were walking around in the rivers and lakes, they would of course have to inform the local government office in advance. However, if the situation is urgent and you can act cheaply, you can kill him as much as possible.
If the local government encounters a life-and-death lawsuit, it can ask Lu Zhishen and Wu Song for verification, record the circumstances and report them to the Department of Criminal Affairs and Prisons, and then submit them to Xiao and Tang via Marble, but they do not have the authority to arrest Lu Zhishen and Wu Song and convict them.
In other words, although the murders that Lu Zhishen and Wu Song might be involved in while walking around must be reported truthfully, the only person in the world who can convict them of their crimes is Xiao Tang.
Of course, Lu Zhishen and Wu Song also knew the purpose of Xiao Tang's arrangement. Their friendship did not require them to bow and kowtow repeatedly to thank the Lord for his kindness. The three of them immediately raised the wine jars and bumped them together, raising their heads. Come on, just eat and drink.
The three brothers drank more and more that night, and they also fulfilled another wish. Located in a corner of the imperial city in the school grounds used for the emperor to practice martial arts and strengthen his body, Xiao Tang, Lu Zhishen, and Wu Song stood in a "pin" shape. Although there were smiles on each other's faces, they were both like wild beasts lying down before pounce. Their whole bodies were tense and they were already ready to attack.
Someone in the imperial city of Daming Mansion actually wanted to fight the emperor with swords and guns, but it seemed that it was already commonplace for Ban Zhi sergeants to stay overnight as guards. The sergeants who stood solemnly outside the school grounds and stayed in the imperial palace could not help but turn their heads and look away. Then he exchanged glances with his colleagues around him, seemingly signaling: His Majesty is competing with the two masters Lu and Wu. Is Zhemo really going to decide the winner today? If this is the case, it will be an eye-opener for us. .....
Lu Zhishen stretched out his foot and stepped forward heavily. A muffled sound of "Boom!" suddenly sounded, and the ground suddenly seemed to tremble. The water-milled Zen staff began to dance in his hand, and the whistling sound of the wind was also dignified and deep; Wu Song The two snowflake iron swords that looked like rotten silver were unsheathed and held in their hands. Suddenly, two cold and invading lights danced in the night. The blades tore through the air and made a heart-stopping whistling sound. And Xiao Tang reached out with one hand, and the broad tip of the tight gold-plated tiger head and dragon tooth gun shone coldly in the night, slowly drooped, and made a clanging sound, and was temporarily placed on the ground by Xiao Tang , although the two sabers on his waist are still sheathed, there is no telling when they will be pulled out.
Xiao Tang, Lu Zhishen, and Wu Song stood facing each other for a moment, then looked at each other and smiled, and then their tense bodies suddenly moved, like three sharp arrows that were about to hit each other. At...
That night, the process and results of the competition between Xiao Tang and Lu Zhishen and Wu Song were verbally relayed by the sergeant Ban Zhi who was guarding the school field. It spread a lot among the departments in front of the palace and impressed all the soldiers. Lu Zhishen and Wu Song were so relieved that they were amazed. After the two waited for several days, they received two jade tablets carefully carved and handmade by jade-arm craftsman Jin Dajian in accordance with Xiao Tang's order. However, they saw that the two jade tablets were all of the same appearance. Not only were they engraved with Jin Dajian's unique craftsmanship, The pattern texture also has the same forty words engraved on it:
The righteous and righteous Zhaoji, Zhaowu and Qingzhong. The heroes of Liangshan, doing justice for heaven. The merits of founding the country, bringing peace and tranquility to the people. The emperor's imperial edicts, he spoke to the world, his wisdom was profound, and Wu Song was ordered to carry out the transformation!
Although the Qi Dynasty was much clearer in governance than in the late Song Dynasty, and the government orders at all levels of government, state, army, and county could probably be passed down from the top to the bottom. Officials in various local governments generally performed their duties, and the vast majority of the people's livelihoods were secure. There won't be as many strongmen haunting places as there were in the late Song Dynasty. However, in some remote places with poor mountains and rivers, there are still some small things, such as car banditry and road tyrants, and even though they can't become a big deal, there are still three to five hundred people. When thieves gather in one place, they often invade nearby villages, counties, and towns, burning, killing, looting, and harming the people. In the city streets, there are still some urban foxes and rats, idle men and rogues who engage in deception and trafficking. The evil thing of trapping and letting go.
However, for those guys, when they bumped into Lu Zhishen and Wu Song who had returned to the world, it was truly the unlucky fate of eight lifetimes.
Lu Zhishen and Wu Song encountered evildoers in the prefectures and cities they passed through. They smashed the thieves' dens, captured the criminals, and escorted them to officials. They used vigorous and resolute methods. And then there were those dangerous places that were located in remote areas and the local government agencies had limited means to control security. At that time, one of Lu Zhishen and Wu Song smiled and waved his Zen staff, fighting the heroes of the world; the other waved his sword angrily, killing the treacherous and slanderous ministers in the world. As the founding hero of the Qi Dynasty, they were leaders of the Liangshan Infantry Army. They had already become famous three thousand miles north of the Great Wall, and were powerful. The four hundred prefectures in the world also resorted to the same ruthless methods that they used to achieve success on the battlefield. There were also local police officers or the brave soldiers sent by the inspection department to assist, and they broke into the stronghold of three to five hundred fierce bandits and killed them again. The heads were rolling and the blood was flowing, just like in the past when Erlong Mountain roared together to attack the "black and evil" activities that harmed the good people in the Green Forest Village, but specifically to wipe out the bandits and evil bandits who were cleaning up the villages.
In the following years, Lu Zhishen and Wu Song's footprints were all over the dangerous mountains and rivers in the border areas. County offices and inspection departments in various places reported the truth to the imperial center. The total report said that Lu Zhishen and Wu Song destroyed eight bandit villages and killed 1,450 thieves. Sixteen people escorted more than 860 bandits who begged for surrender to the local government office to await trial. Officials also went to surrounding villages to verify and verify that the crimes of the Green Forest Xiaoju thieves who were annihilated by Lu Zhishen and Wu Song were basically true.
Nowadays, the strongman bandits who still have to cut trails in the green forests in the ordinary season, patrol the mountains as eyes, set up strongholds according to dangers, and their methods of resisting the government are far inferior to those of Lu Zhishen, Wu Song and other seniors who dominated the world in the past. In addition, with the help of local officers and soldiers, all the green forest bandits targeted by this pair of heroes were either captured or killed by Zen staffs and swords. There was almost no other way out. However, Lu Zhishen The biggest incident occurred during the period of fighting against violence and rape with Wu Song, and even caused a group of officials to be purged and deposed, which shocked the government and the opposition...
A large household in northern Guizhou colluded with the local chieftain and the county government to occupy the property of the Han, Miao, Bai Yi and other people, deceived the superiors and concealed the truth, and violated the law. Although it was temporarily concealed from the inspection and assessment envoys, there was still trouble The local people's resentment was boiling. When Lu Zhishen and Wu Song visited the area, they immediately spotted the signs of a civil uprising. Of course, such an injustice should be dealt with. However, in order to cover up the crime, the local evil households secretly sent minions several times with the intention of silencing them and causing riots. When he failed, he asked his confidants to disguise themselves as monks and tutu, and caused a stir between the real and fake Zen Master Yi Liezhaoji and the founder Zhaowu Qingzhong, intending to falsely accuse Lu Zhishen and Wu Song of their true identities.
The turmoil got louder and louder, and it finally alerted the Fusi of Yiluan Town, which was still in charge of Shi Xiu at the time, to send spies to conduct a thorough investigation. Not only did they find out the evil deeds of the local villains who were trying to cover up, but also followed the clues to identify a large number of various people who were colluding with each other to cover up.
After that, Xiao Tang issued an edict from the beginning to the end, and the officials involved in the case were removed from their posts and beheaded when they should be executed. This finally gave an explanation to the local people and the people who suffered.
Lu Zhishen and Wu Song also became even more famous because of this incident. The pair of monks and Toutuo traveled everywhere, and their chivalrous and righteous deeds were heard all over the world. All the big officials in various places who had done some evil things at the expense of innocent people were also aware of it.
Changes occurred, and even Lu Zhishen and Wu Songfang went to a town on their own, and there were local bullies who had oppressed good people and harmed the people. They fled in fear to the local county government office and surrendered and confessed...
At least being punished severely by the government would be better than seeing these two murderous gods smashing their heads with a stick and cutting off their heads with a knife. Since these two founding heroes had the emperor's protection, they lost their lives in vain.
Rao!
During these ten or twenty years, Lu Zhishen and Wu Song traveled around and dealt with any injustices they encountered. They could also often go and have wine and reminisce with their Juyi brothers who had returned to their hometown to start a big business. These days were still very happy.
Refreshing. However, people are subject to birth, aging, illness and death. They have done too many great things in their lives. Although they are not Buddhists who abide by the strict rules and precepts, Lu Zhishen and Wu Song, who both have a sense of enlightenment, will inevitably reach the point where all virtues are perfected and all evils are calm.
