Chapter 551 Heavenly Authorization of the King
Wu Sheng smiled, stretched out his hand and slapped his hand to the side. With a bang, a stone as tall as a person nearby shattered into pieces in the air. Several officers trembled when they saw this and subconsciously stepped back.
The leader trembled and told the truth of the matter. It turned out that something went wrong when a nearby military camp was escorting grain and grass, and they were robbed halfway. They arrested people from a nearby village and said that they were robbing grain and grass.
They also set fire to the grain and burned it. As a result, all the people in the village were beheaded, the remaining people and women were sent to the military camp, and the remaining people served as corvees.
After hearing this, Wu Sheng felt a ball of anger burning in his heart.
"You are really nothing!"
"Yes, yes, I am not a thing, I am not a thing. This good man, I have an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old child. Please spare me!" The officer knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"Go and untie all the shackles." Wu Sheng pointed at the prisoners.
"Yes." The officer stood up and immediately called to his companions to untie the chains on those people. After being unchained, they still stood there, their eyes dull, as if their souls were gone, and only their bodies were left.
"You are free and can go." After Wu Sheng said this, these people still stood there blankly.
Alas, Wu Sheng sighed upon seeing this.
Om,
The Buddhist mantras were recited, like drums at dusk and bells in the morning, resounding throughout the world. The prisoners who were originally standing there in a daze shook their bodies a few times after hearing the Buddhist sounds, and their eyes regained some sparkle, but soon they dimmed again.
Go down.
Several people looked up at Wu Sheng, their eyes numb and empty.
"You can go." Wu Sheng said softly.
"Let's go, where are we going?" an old man asked.
"Go home."
"My home, my home has been burned down by them, and everyone has been killed. How can I still have home?" The old man's words were full of sadness and despair. After hearing this, Wu Sheng felt his heart was a little clogged.
"Even if we run away now, we will still be caught and beheaded." Another old man said. "Oh, it's better to die now!"
They have lost hope for their future life and no longer have any illusions.
These few words left Wu Sheng speechless. Yes, their home is gone, where are they going? If they are caught, they will be charged with escaping from prison, adding more guilt to the crime, Wu Sheng's gang.
You can save them for a while, but you can't protect them for the rest of your life.
In this damn world, I would rather be a peace dog than a chaotic person!
"Let's find a place to eat first, and you will lead the way."
"Yes, yes." The officer's face turned pale, with cold sweat on his head, and he led the way fearfully, fearing that the man behind him would get angry and blow his head off with a slap.
After walking for about half an hour, we arrived at a small town and found a restaurant.
Wu Sheng didn't ask for anything but porridge and rice. These people wolfed down the food, obviously they were starving. The more they were like this, the less they could eat too much, otherwise their faces would easily become stuffy.
People in the villages and towns pointed their fingers when they saw it. It was the first time for a police officer to lead a prisoner to a restaurant for dinner, so they felt a little strange.
After eating and resting for a while, they continued on the road, stopping and walking until they came to a nearby city and went straight to the Yamen.
"Wait a moment, I'll send a message." The officer said cautiously.
"Why should I wait? Lead the way!"
"yes."
The officer took Wu Sheng straight to the county government office and walked through the corridor to the outside of the courtyard locked by the county magistrate.
"Come on, beauty, and feed me some wine."
"Master, you are so evil!"
There were some imaginative sounds coming from the yard.
Push the door open, walk through the yard, come outside the house, and push open the door with one hand.
I saw a fat man in official robes in the room, with two women in heavy makeup in his arms, and a table full of fine wine and delicacies.
"Bold, who are you!" The magistrate slapped the table, glared, and pointed at Wu Sheng.
"Here's someone!" He shouted outside the house, but no one answered.
"You bitch!" Wu Sheng raised his hand and grabbed it. The fat body of the county magistrate floated up and came to him on its own. Then Wu Sheng whipped him into the yard with a bang, and fell heavily to the ground, letting out a scream.
The sound is like a fat pig waiting to be slaughtered.
"Shout again and I will kill you immediately." Wu Sheng said coldly, and the magistrate lying on the ground immediately covered his mouth with his hands, not daring to make any sound. His fat body was trembling.
The two young women with heavy makeup in the room were also trembling with fear.
"Stand up."
After hearing this, the county magistrate stood up tremblingly, lowering his head and not daring to look at Wu Sheng or speak.
"If you are so fat, you must have eaten a lot of people's fat and people's ointment on weekdays, right?" After Wu Sheng said this, the county magistrate fell to his knees again.
"Heroes, spare their lives, heroes, spare their lives!"
"Let's go, let's go out with me to judge a case first."
Ah? The county magistrate was stunned after hearing this.
Um?
"Yes, yes, I will go immediately, I will go immediately," the county magistrate said.
Arriving at the county government hall, all the wrongly accused prisoners were brought up.
"You still don't kneel down when you see the magistrate!" a police officer shouted at the prisoners.
Bang, the county magistrate threw the prison tree in his hand directly in the officer's face.
"Shut up!"
"Yes." The officer hurriedly picked up the gavel and sent it back.
"It has been found that the case of stealing public grain in Fangjia Village was committed by bandits and has nothing to do with the people of Fangjia Village. Everyone is waiting to be released in court."
mighty!
"Let it go?"
Not only the county captain and the officers were dumbfounded, but also the people watching the excitement outside the county government office were dumbfounded.
This case was one of the most serious this year. Everyone in Fangjiacun was arrested and killed, and no one was left alive. Who would have thought that such a shocking turn of events suddenly occurred.
Is this a mistake?
"It's over, it's over!" The county magistrate broke into a cold sweat.
"This case was decided by the county magistrate. If he knows about it, my county magistrate will be finished." The magistrate wiped his sweat. "No matter what, the most important thing is to survive first."
"Release? We are fine!" A group of villagers who had been wronged in the lobby came to their senses and cried excitedly.
When Wu Sheng saw this, he was filled with emotion. Even if he had advanced cultivation, the people would not listen to his words. The county magistrate only had a wine bag and rice bag, but the people of the county had to obey his words. Because he was the county magistrate and was in charge of a county.
, it is justifiable, this is the kingship granted by heaven!
In a place, a good official is actually a blessing to the people.
After leaving the court, Wu Shengbian came to the magistrate's residence again and learned the whole story from his mouth.
Being robbed while escorting grain and fodder is a serious crime of beheading. However, if the gangster who robbed the grain is caught, not only can he be punished and meritorious service, but he will also receive a certain reward. In peacetime, naturally he would not dare to do this, because the higher-ups will send people to investigate the case.
.
But now the court is dark, and as long as money is spent, black can become white.
