Chapter 989 Kill the traitor and eliminate the evil, whether you are an official or a thief!
This guy has really been tortured on Salmon Island for a long time. He seemed to be unconscious long ago, but now he has lost his mind and gone crazy? Not only the brothers under Xiao Tang, but also Fang Hu
The soldiers inside looked at the prisoner as if they were looking at a lunatic whose mind was already abnormal.
No matter how old you are, you still have to have a sense of proportion. No matter whether you are tortured by the guards in the prison camp or fall into the hands of these strong men who came to Salmon Island, it will not change the situation of this prisoner being a knife and a slave and me being a fish and meat, let alone today
It can be considered that his life was saved by the other party. This guy is so good, but he turns around and makes trouble with Wang Fa?
Ruan Xiaoqi's face suddenly became angry. He jumped out, pointed at the prisoner and cursed: "You guy, you don't know what is good and what is good! You just scolded the bird man for killing prisoners indiscriminately, but you had to let those guys do what they wanted."
At your mercy, our brothers took action to eliminate the evil and also saved the lives of you soldiers. Is this not the wrong thing to do?"
The prisoner snorted coldly and said: "Even if there are idiots in the official family who ruin the reputation of the court and ignore the law for a while, Mencius said: Being kind is not enough to govern, and being able to follow the law cannot be done by oneself. Even if the official law is temporarily ignorant,
Are we going to teach the murderers and thieves in the green forest to uphold justice? Isn’t the world even more chaotic? People in the rivers and lakes act on their own initiative and think they are upholding justice, but in fact they are breaking the laws of the country!"
Ruan Xiaoqi couldn't remember what Mencius said. He was even more annoyed by the prisoner's scholar stubbornness. Then he pointed at the prisoner and cursed: "You scholar idiots, just shaking your head."
What is the old master saying in your brain? Grandpa doesn’t know what the meaning of the law of disciples and good disciples is. But grandpa knows that abusers and thieves use the king’s laws to harm people. You guys are talking about Confucius and Mencius with those abusers. There is a bird.
Why? Most of the dog officials in the state capital can challenge knowledge, but they still squeeze the common people by knocking their bones and sucking their marrow! You say that our brothers have broken the law, why are you wearing shackles and chains, and being a thief on Salmon Island who can be killed and concocted by anyone?
With the army?"
The prisoner turned his head when he heard this, as if he no longer bothered to quarrel with those green forest people. Although they were both prisoners who were drafted and deported to Salmon Island, Fang Hu, as a strong man in the green forest, was already able to
He was very disgusted with those government servants, and he wanted to curry favor with the green forest comrades who seemed to be strong and powerful along the way, so he walked to Shi Xiu's side and whispered: "Brother, this stupid bird turned out to be a government servant.
You don't know how to praise, and you look down on us green forest heroes. I'm afraid it will be a disaster if you keep them, so why don't I let my little brother take action for you brothers and do this?"
"You can't do this little thing for me."
Shi Xiu glanced sideways at Fang Hu, then pressed the handle of the knife and walked towards the prisoner. At this time, Shi Xiu also secretly said in his heart: This man is powerful and unyielding. It is true to say that he is upright, and it seems that he can
He is said to be a decent man... But even though this bird is in prison, he is still proud of Judge Wang's laws and is still loyal to the court. He is afraid that his brother will not harm his life. But if he is kept, his brother will be harmed.
There is a danger of death. When it comes to killing people and silencing them, I wonder if this evil man should still ask me to do it for my brother...
Shi Xiu, who had murderous intentions in his heart, thought in his heart, and walked up to the proudly erect prisoner in a moment. Due to the long period of torture he suffered on Salmon Island, this prisoner was skinny and shabby, and his clothes were ragged. He was frail.
His rickety figure was also a head shorter than the other prisoners, and his appearance could be said to be completely different from the one before he was exiled from the army. It was also dark, so Shi Xiu had not recognized who this prisoner was before.
Now that she was in front of him, Shi Xiu's eyes were fixed, but he couldn't help but let out a sigh, and began to carefully look at the appearance of the prisoner in front of him.
Originally, the prisoner's loose hair covered less than half of his face, and there were several scars on his face. His bloody beard was also knotted in one place, so his appearance was unclear for a while, but the sharp-eyed Shi Xiu only
After looking at it for a moment, he couldn't help but be surprised and said: "Sun Buddha's son, Kong Mu? How come you are also sent to this Salmon Island?"
Sun Ding, who was originally the prosecutor of the Kaifeng government office and was praised as Sun Fo'er because of his uprightness and kindness, was also stunned after hearing this. He also looked towards Shi Xiu in confusion, and saw the man in black in front of him covering his face with a black cloth.
, Sun Ding frowned and asked: "How can you, a strong man like you, recognize me?"
When Shi Xiu was entrusted by Xiao Tang to take care of things in Kaifeng Mansion, he had met Sun Ding several times. The murderous aura that arose in Shi Xiu's heart at this time also disappeared in an instant. The brothers who gathered with Xiao Tang every day
Individuals have different concepts of good and evil. For Shi Xiu, as long as he can help his brother achieve great things, he is happy to do it even if it is a ruthless thing. But this desperate Saburo is a very loyal person.
, he also knew very well that Gao Qiu instigated the governor of Kaifeng to kill Lin Chong, but it was this upright and good official who spoke to the governor and saved Lin Chong.
Since he is Lin Chong's brother's benefactor, Sun Ding has no choice but to help him and protect him, and must not hurt him... Shi Xiu thought to himself and tightened his hand on the handle of the steel knife at his waist.
Shi Xiu also slowly relaxed. Shi Xiu stared at Sun Ding for a moment, and then said: "Since it is Sun Kongmu, I can't leave you to suffer on this Salmon Island. Kongmu will take a rest for a while, I have something to do, and I will report later.
After getting to know my brother, he will come to you carefully and find a place for Xun."
When Sun Ding heard this, he saw a stick in his neck and said angrily: "What tricks are you, the green forest bandits, going to do? Even if I have to die on Salmon Island in the end, I will not accept your favor!"
Shi Xiu sneered and ignored Sun Ding. Instead, he turned around and whispered to the other brothers about Sun Ding's origin. Ruan Xiaoqi and other leaders who had originally disliked Sun Ding gradually became angry when they saw this.
It faded away, but when he looked towards Sun Ding again, his expression became a little complicated.
Sun Ding was confused, but was ignored for a while. At this time, brothers such as Shi Xiu, Xiao Jiasui and others just asked other prisoners why they were exiled, and they were exiled to Salmon Island one after another.
.
After Xiao Jiasui and other leaders made some inquiries, they learned that among these prisoners were two subordinate officials who had been severely punished for dereliction of duty; a corrupt state official who had taken bribes and violated the law and was impeached; and four individuals.
They were framed and sent into the army because they offended local wealthy people and corrupted the prefect. Under Xiao Jiasui's continuous questioning, the four prisoners who were sent to Salmon Island because of an unjust lawsuit cried out in tears, beating their chests and feet from time to time, feeling sad.
God is blind and allowed the powerful to take these innocent and kind-hearted people and make them prisoners.
In addition to Fang Hu, there are two other prisoners who have something to do with the green forest road. One is a one-legged bandit who walks in the rivers and lakes. He also makes a living by making people's teeth here and there. In fact, he kidnaps children with the help of some sweat medicine.
Although the prostitute's tricks are very despicable, some of the strongmen who gathered in the mountains and forests have some friendship with him, so he can be considered happy while hanging around on the road; the other one not only kills cattle for gambling, but also lures some girls from good families to make tiles in the past.
She made a living as a prostitute and became her elder brother to a strongman leader from Huainan West Road. Therefore, no one in the village dared to offend him. However, because they were drunk, he beat to death two people who were abducted by him.
, but refused to submit to the incident of a woman working as a prostitute, she was taken away by the county government officials before she could escape...
Originally, according to the laws of the Song Dynasty, in addition to officials who received stolen goods who were not pardoned, being sentenced to Luo Cao for treason was also a serious crime that was not pardoned (for example, although Song Jiang's first murder of Yan Poxi was a murder case, the crime was reduced by one level, he was sent to a foreign country, and he still had a chance to endure hardship.
He was pardoned by the imperial court and exempted from punishment, but writing an anti-poetry in Xunyang Tower in Jiangzhou was a serious crime involving treason. From then on, Song Jiang could only give up the thought of being pardoned by the imperial court, and had no choice but to become more powerful and powerful in Liangshan.
To the extent that the imperial court was afraid, Zhao Ji personally issued an order to recruit people, so that he could circumvent the Song Dynasty's unpardonable laws and clear his identity). However, Fang Hu and other three bribed the government office to make the case easier, and did not involve
With his status in the green forest, his death penalty was reduced by one level and he was sent to Salmon Island. However, according to the law, he could still live for the time being.
The strongman Fang Hu, who originally fell into the green forest at the Huaiyang military boundary, originally thought that Shi Xiu and others asked why all the prisoners were sent here to select some useful people to join the gang. Since this group of green forest tycoons are attacking with strength.
On Salmon Island, it is better to enjoy the shade under the big trees than to guard the forest with only a few hundred men... Fang Hu thought in his mind, and then approached Shi Xiu again and said: "This brother, I am deeply touched by this."
I would repay such kindness with my life, but... I haven't said yet where did all these heroes become our comrades? I will never give up on poverty and lowly status. I am willing to hold the whip and fall into the stirrup, and to follow the righteousness.
I just want it to be used by your village."
"Are you willing to follow justice? But what you think is the morality of Green Forest is completely different from what my brother thinks..."
Shi Xiu said calmly, then turned his head to look at Fang Hu, and said: "Just now when you were asking about the reason why those prisoners were sent to Salmon Island, you boasted again and told me that there were many good and bad people killing people.
You can kill children around ten years old, you can kill all your relatives, and you can kill the daughter of a wealthy family with whom you have a estrangement.
Heroes who are willing to join us in the cause of righteousness naturally do not care about their origins, do not give up their wealth and status, and share the same righteousness and life with each other... But you don't know that although my brother is willing to go around to rescue those heroes in trouble, he will definitely look down upon them.
To gather together with people like you."
Fang Hu was stunned when he heard this, but before he could recover, he heard a clear sound. Shi Xiu's eyes suddenly became fierce, and the narrow-edged steel knife in the sheath was fiercely unsheathed and slashed.
A shrill cold light shot out and passed directly over Fang Hu's neck!
