Chapter 562: Storm
When it was close to evening, a dark cloud ran out of nowhere, it obscured the bright afternoon sun, and like a magnet pulled more dark clouds to come, and the sky became darker, and it became darker and darker, so black that you could not see your fingers, as if it was from day to night in an instant.
The dark sky was like a huge iron pot, upside down above the earth, so oppressive that people could not breathe, and when a miserable white electric light pierced the sky, the torrential rain poured down the power of the desolation.
Whoa......
Under the provocation of the angry wind and rain, the originally calm sea also became extremely violent, and the monstrous waves flooded hundreds of meters of tidal flats, and slapped on the Fan Gong embankment with the power of thunder, splashing a wall of water of nearly ten meters, which was very terrifying.
At the mouth of the river where the Xixi Inspection Division is located, the water was even forced backwards by huge waves, and the water level rose rapidly, and dozens of boats moored here were washed away.
Dongtai County.
Xu Jin stood in front of the window in a cyan five-grade official robe, looking at the waterfall-like eaves outside the window, and couldn't help but secretly congratulate himself on coming back in time.
It is said that Xu Jin led the fleet to leave Dongsha Island this morning, first returned the seized goods to the Xixi Inspection Division, and then spent nearly half a day to use a horse-drawn carriage to transport these goods into Dongtai County. If there is such a terrible storm at sea, it will be really choking, and if you don't get it, you will be wiped out.
At this time, the curtain of the door was lifted, and two pretty girls wearing peach-colored vests walked in lightly, and the two picturesque faces came out like the same mold, which was indistinguishable and pleasing to the eye.
Originally, Xu Jin did not bring the two little cabbages in early spring and early summer with him during his visit to Dongtai County, but let them stay in Yangzhou City, but the two were very worried when they learned that the master met the Japanese in Dongtai County, so they instigated Erniu to bring them to Dongtai County, but when they arrived, Xu Jin had already gone to sea to Dongsha Island.
Chu Chun and Chu Xia walked behind Xu Jin and said in unison: "Master, the hot water is ready, it's time to bathe and change clothes." After saying that, they looked at each other and smiled, and when they saw the old man return safely, the two girls were obviously very happy.
Beautiful things can always bring people pleasant visual enjoyment, when Xu Jin retracted his gaze from the window and saw the two pretty maids standing behind him, his mood also became happy, he smiled and opened his arms, and took off his official robe cooperatively......
On the evening of the 10th day of the first month of March, a violent storm swept through Dongtai County, which was a storm from nature, and as early as three days ago, an anti-smuggling storm had already raged in Dongtai County.
Zhu Kun was undoubtedly a resolute person, and on the day that the smuggled goods were brought back from Dongsha Island, he began to investigate the origin of the stolen goods, and arrested more than a dozen people in just three days, including businessmen and gentry and incumbent officials. Therefore, the current Dongtai County is a rumor, and all the businessmen and gentry who have participated in smuggling are in danger and cannot live in fear.
Whoa......
The storm outside was still raging wildly, the door of the mansion of the Zheng family, the richest man in Dongtai County, was closed, and the two mighty stone lions outside the door were spitting water in their mouths.
At this time, a man wearing a hat and a cloak hurriedly came from the heavy rain and knocked on the vermilion lacquer door of the Zheng family. The concierge of the Zheng family opened the door a little uneasily, and when he saw that it was not the brigade official who came outside the door, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Chen Sipan is awake!" The man outside the door didn't enter the door, and he turned around and walked into the heavy rain without a clue, and continued to inform the next family.
The porter shivered smartly, hurriedly closed the door, and then ran into the inner house with an umbrella to inform the head of the house, Zheng Shirong.
About half an hour later, Zheng Shirong, the head of the Zheng family, left the Zheng Mansion in a hurry with his slaves, braved the storm and rushed out of the city, and hurried from the canal to Yangzhou City by small boat. At the same time, the other two big families in Dongtai County, the Zhao family and the head of the Li family, also left Dongtai County and rushed to Yangzhou City overnight in the rain.
……
The county jail in Dongtai County was dark and damp, the air was filled with an unpleasant musty smell and the stench of feces and urine, flies and mosquitoes swaggered around, and it was estimated that no creature liked to live here except rats and fleas, and Orinobu Miko was no exception.
"Let me out, let me out, a bastard who doesn't believe in his words, a shameless dog official surnamed Xu, you will not die well, you will definitely die a good death." Orinobumiko shouted in rage and violently kicked the iron door of her cell.
Although she had been mentally prepared to be imprisoned for a long time, what Orinobu Miko didn't expect was that the shameless official who kept saying that he would treat him would actually lock himself up in such a dirty place.
"Shut up!" The jailer, apparently annoyed by the noise, stabbed Ori Shinmiko through the iron fence with a stick of fire and water, and the latter was stabbed to the ground on the spot, holding his lower abdomen and staring at the jailer viciously.
The jailer couldn't help but be furious, picked up the water and fire stick, and beat his head and brain, and scolded with evil humor while beating back: "Stinky girls from the Japanese country, you dare to play cruel with Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu can't kill you, I'll stab you...... Hey, hey, I'm poking! ”
At first, the jailer was just trying to vent his anger, but when he realized that this widow was so beautiful and had such a seductive figure, the eyes of the wretched man became obscene, and he picked on the sensitive parts of Ori Nobumiko, and said some obscene words in his mouth to add to the amusement.
Ori Shinmiko curled up in a strange position, her hands covering her head and face, her eyes as cold as blades, staring at the jailer's throat through the gap between her arms.
Just as Orishin Miko was about to jump up and crush the jailer's throat, the dim cell suddenly became bright, and it turned out that a group of people came in with two lanterns, and the leader was none other than Zhu Kun, the commander of Dongtai County.
"Niu Lu, what are you doing?" Zhu Su shouted and reprimanded.
Niu Lu is the jailer, this thing didn't know that he had just walked outside the ghost gate, pulled out the water and fire stick from the iron bar, and said curtly: "Lord County, this female prisoner of the Japanese country is restless, making a lot of noise and kicking the door, and insulting Lord Qincha Xu, the little one can't help but teach her a lesson." ”
Zhu Su frowned and glanced at Orishin Miko behind the iron bar, and then led his servants straight past to another independent cell.
This cell is much drier and cleaner, and there is even a bed with mosquito nets, and Chen Sipan, the pirate leader of Dongsha Island, is lying on the bed at this time. The four brocade guards in charge of guarding arched their hands slightly at Zhu Kun, and then consciously stepped aside.
Chen Sipan looked very weak, but his eyes were open, and he snorted disdainfully when he saw Zhu Kun approaching.
Zhu Kun said in a deep voice: "Chen Sipan, this official advises you to confess immediately, so as not to suffer from the pain of flesh and skin." ”
Chen Sipan said contemptuously: "Don't talk nonsense, if you want to kill, you have to release and respect, Lao Tzu has been in this business for decades, and he has always been faithful, don't want to ask a name from Lao Tzu's mouth." ”
Zhu Kun's face sank, and he said angrily: "Stubborn! ”
A brocade guard next to him said with a smile: "Lord Zhu, this thief is also injured on his body, and after a while it will be stabilized, let him taste the one hundred and eight kinds of torture of our brocade guard, and he will definitely not be hard again." ”
Chen Sipan snorted disdainfully and said, "Bullshit, if you have any means, Lao Tzu frowned and didn't have the surname Chen." ”(https:)
