Chapter 516: The Shi Family
Maybe Lin Qin's failure to stay in the capital and the surrounding areas of the capital as an official was really a reason why he felt that he was incapable, but this was definitely not the main reason.
Lin Qin is indeed a bit like his father Lin Du Yushi, but this does not mean that Lin Qin does not have the idea of climbing up. The reason why he chose to come to other places as an official is obviously because he has the intention of bringing out a team of his own outside. Although the time of contact is still relatively short, Mu Xiaojiu can still see that Lin Qin's ambition is not small.
For example, when Lin Qin mentioned that he was about to be transferred, the glint that flashed in his eyes. Mu Xiaojiu could see clearly that the glimmer of light was not because of the so-called "transfer", but because of the reluctance in the eyes of Li Zhutou and those few catchers sitting on the table.
"Alright, alright." Lin Qin opened his mouth and said: "Don't talk about this, let's hurry up and eat, it is estimated that everyone is hungry." ”
After speaking, Lin Qin looked at Mu Xiaojiu again, "I'm sorry, Lord Mu, our Qingshui Yamen doesn't have much money, so we eat relatively simple on weekdays." ”
"It's okay, it's okay." Mu Xiaojiu waved his hand and took the lead in picking up the chopsticks, and the others were also ready to start after Mu Xiaojiu picked up the chopsticks.
As a result, before he had eaten two bites, the drumming sound of "dong dong dong" suddenly came from the gate of the yamen.
The big drum in front of the yamen is not just a knock. This drum is called the "drum of grievances", and only those who have grievances can beat it, and if the drum is sounded for no reason, depending on the purpose and motive, the person who beats the drum for no reason can be tortured or even imprisoned.
From beating Lin Qin to the Yamen of Zhuge Town as an official to the present, the drum of grievances in front of the Yamen of Zhuge Town has only been thought of once. And that time, it involved a tragedy in a subordinate village of Zhuge Town that was almost wiped out.
This is the second time that the drum has been sounded.
As soon as the drum sounded, where did the people in the back hall still have any mood to eat? Lin Qin was the first to take the lead and put down his chopsticks, got up directly from the stool and ran outside.
After Lin Qin, Li Zhutou and those few catchers also put down their chopsticks and chased after them. Mu Xiaojiu frowned, and said: "Xiaobai, go find your master, Mu Xuan, let's go and see, I guess it is likely that there is something bad that has happened to a martial arts person." ”
"Yes, master." "Yes, Childe."
………………………………………
"My lord! Satoma-sama! Please do it for my father! At the gate of the Yamen of Zhuge Town, a man and a woman knelt at the bottom of the steps. The man had a sad face, supported the woman, and knelt without saying a word. The woman was crying and crying loudly.
"Huh? It is the Shi family couple in the east of the town. Li Zhutou leaned into Lin Qin's ear and whispered.
Lin Qin nodded, and was about to speak, but found that there were already martial arts people who were attracted by the sound of the drums and walked towards this side. In desperation, Lin Qin could only say: "The two of you come in with me first, if there is any grievance or humiliation, let's go in and say." ”
"Lin Lizheng." At this time, Mu Xiaojiu and Mu Duan also arrived at the gate of the yamen, "...... is this?" ”
"A martial arts person is here." Lin Qin whispered.
Mu Xiaojiu raised his eyebrows, and then instructed Mu Duan: "Mu Duan, guard at the door, the loss is a martial arts person, the first is injured, the second is disabled, and the third starts, I promise you to kill it directly." ”
Mu Duan nodded, stood at the door with his sword, and began to wait for those martial arts people to come.
"Two, what grievances do you have?" After entering the yamen, Lin Qin obviously understood that now was not the time to do anything to ascend to the court, so he directly asked the Shi family couple.
"Lord Lizheng, I, our family ......" The woman choked up, and failed to say the whole thing several times, as if she had thought of something particularly sad.
At this time, it was the man who had been silent before who spoke: "Please also ask Lord Lizheng to make the decision for us and send someone to kill those two animals that are not as good as pigs and dogs!" ”
Tonight, after the Shi family and his wife had dinner, his wife cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks at home, and Lao Shi carried a jar of wine, ready to send it to his father-in-law's house.
Because there is still an old mother alive in the family, and Mrs. Shi has been in poor health, if she takes her father-in-law and mother-in-law into the house, it will not be good for the three old people. In addition, the two families are not far away, so from time to time, Lao Shi and her wife will alternately go to see the two old men.
Walking and stopping all the way, it took about a pillar of incense to take about a pillar of incense, and Lao Shi walked to the door of the two old people's houses. But to his surprise, the door of the two old people's houses was unlocked.
It is said that the weather has been cold in the past two days, and the old men and ladies in the town have not gone out to set up the dragon gate array, chatting and chatting, these two old people have eaten every day, and they generally clean up, and then look at the time and rest directly.
Although it is said that everyone in the town has a good relationship, in order to prevent foreign thieves, the two old men will still pay attention to locking the door when they rest every day.
Today...... It's already dark, why is this door still ......
With the doubt in his heart, Lao Shi gently raised his hand and pushed open the door of the house.
However, the sight that caught the eye made Lao Shi's whole person stunned, and the jar of wine he was carrying in his hand was suddenly loosened, fell to the ground and fell to pieces, and the smell of the farmer's turbid wine suddenly escaped and spread all over the house.
It turned out that what appeared in front of Lao Shi was simply a scene of Shura's hell. The two old men who were usually kind and kind have now become broken corpses on the ground, and the blood is not only flowing freely on the ground, but even splashing all over the wall, looking extremely hideous.
"Ah!!h Although Lao Shi was a big man, he couldn't help but shout out when he saw the scene in front of him.
This shout cut through the night and woke up several families who were relatively close to each other.
"What's wrong? What's going on? Who is this, it's the middle of the night and the ghosts are still screaming, go and see what's going on. ”
"Eh, who doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, calling the soul!"
With a wave of curses and complaints, many people walked out of the house. At this time, Lao Shi ran out of his father-in-law's house in a panic and a little panicked, and while running, he was still shouting: "Murder!" ”
"What? Killed? "Among those who came out, there were men and women, old and young, basically people who knew Lao Shi. At this time, seeing Lao Shi's appearance as if he had lost his soul, he naturally would not ignore it, and ran over to stop Lao Shi.
