Chapter 243 Upgrade(1/2)
"Relative?" The leading official asked in a questionable manner.
When asked, he looked at Zhu Xingde, and then looked at the tall figure of the second pillar that wanted to hide, but could not hide it at all.
Erzhuzi kept his back to the officials, and was frozen there.
Erzhuzi was busy recalling the group of thieves who cheated the thieves in Liang. After they were arrested, how did they fix them? At that time, they seemed to be cursing, and they dared to pretend to be a yamen runner, and they dared to go out to cheat when they were wearing clothes, and slap you to death with your big mouth.
He and De Ge will not fall to that level...
At this time, when the head of the Hei Shou Village in Gaohan Village faced the officials' questions, his eyes also showed a sense of confusion.
What does it look like a little bit?
The village chief was actually more confused than the officials in front of him. Why did he say the word "relative" just by silly?
he?
He is asking for trouble for himself, hey.
But the old man only stuttered for a while and immediately realized what he wanted.
"Yes, it's a relative!"
No matter how I listened, I felt the sound was filled with a strong and powerful excitement.
Some villagers reacted quickly. Although they didn’t know why the old village chief was lying and did not understand what the meaning of saying this was, it seemed that only by saying this could we express our gratitude?
After thinking about it, I was indeed right.
The two of them saved the lives of the whole village, young and old.
If I hadn't felt why the two of them were trying to help them before, but now I understand everything after the dust settles.
Isn't this a relative?
Even if it was not before, it is still the same now, at least in their hearts, they are relatives.
The scenes that helped them escape before were not just joking to save them.
I believe that in the future, Zhu Xingde and the others will come back, even the most stingy families in the village will be warm and entertaining.
So these villagers who reacted quickly also expressed their love with excitement in their voices:
"Yes, the official is a relative, and even relatives cannot do this. They are relatives of everyone in our village. When they come to the village later, they will be real relatives of everyone in our Gaohan Village."
Unfortunately, the officials sent by him are not so easy to fool.
The official officer waved his hand and ordered his subordinates to check the snow disaster and the house collapse first. This is not something that can be delayed.
He also called the old village chief Heishou, and first got busy counting the number of people, and asked while recording.
This involves a later placement.
Although there are fires, in such a cold day, the house collapses so severely that it cannot be dealt with by occupants. It is obvious that the shadows are shining with torches, and small snow piles are still falling down the mountain. In order to avoid secondary disasters, the villagers cannot be allowed to wait in place.
Before leaving, the officials had already received the order to move the avalanche-affected villages as soon as possible. In winter, the city is too far away to accept so many people. Some villagers, old, young, sick and disabled, will be taken away by them later and settled in other villages along the way.
In fact, the villagers of Gaohan Village do not know that this sudden avalanche that is rare in decades is not only caused by Gaohan Village, but also several villages behind the mountain have also had accidents.
The official surnamed Jiang was the one with great experience and status among the county officials. He brought more than 20 subordinates.
The reason why he was assigned to Gaohan Village was because both the government office and the town thought that Gaohan Village would be the village with the worst disaster.
But after official Jiang asked, he finally understood where the sense of incongruity that he felt when entering the village came from.
No wonder there were no continuous cries of sadness.
No wonder I was still in the mood to ignite dozens of fires of all sizes, and the whole village gathered to cook the fire.
No wonder when he dismounted, he vaguely saw the villagers who were heartbroken and ate dry food.
No wonder when I saw them, I didn’t call as excited as if I saw the backbone.
There was not even a person who knelt on him or someone who asked him for help.
Official Jiang looked at the data recorded in the notebook and thought: If it was during the day, he might have seen a villager showing a "why did you come" expression.
It seems that we are all done, and the arrangements are clear, so you will come.
It's been useless to hand over so much food to the court.
All right.
He may have thought too much, but in fact, most villagers did not dare to blame the poor officials.
Official Jiang raised his head, and his face turned red when he lit up the torch. He asked the thin black man in front of him again: "Are you sure no one died?"
The old village chief said everything this time: "Well, there were a few people who had their arms broken, had their cover broken, and some people who were afraid to move their ankles were all injured and not dead."
"Did these people be injured because they were pulled out of the snow?"
"No, I ran too fast, hit the door, fell to the gate, and on the small road in Wei Village. There were also several other fractures. They had overturned and fell from the car."
For the sake of Yan Jing, the old village chief actually wanted to add some injuries to those who caught chickens, ducks and dogs.
These days, it is always snowing, and there is ice in the yard on the road. If you are anxious, you won’t fall? He also fell a big butt while running away.
However, he choked back again, and the old village chief solemnly replied to the official Jiang: "Anyway, add it, add it, official, all kinds of injuries are counted together, and more than ten people were injured due to snow disasters."
Official Jiang was speechless. Listening to the tone, those who didn't know thought it was so evil.
The previous ten people were injured, and their tone seemed to be quite serious after the avalanche.
He really wanted to remind the old man in front of him, do you still remember how many people there are in your village? Don’t look at your village, but there are many people. After such a big snow disaster, only injured so few people, but they are still dead. What else do you think?
As an outsider, he was not in front of the village, and he looked at the Heishi Mountains in the distance and was worried for the villagers.
But I didn't expect that in fact, the situation was so good that it was surprisingly good.
Thinking of this, Official Jiang realized again, it was impossible.
Even if he did not go to other affected villages and did not know the number of deaths in other villages, he could guess that at least it would not be as peaceful as Gaohan Village.
Unless you avoid it like you are predicting it in advance, or if you are doing something big in the village, you happen to gather in a place that will not be affected by the avalanche.
Regarding the possibility of the latter, Official Jiang glanced at everyone and took out all the children in the cradle, and he directly rejected it in his heart. Which village would discuss major issues and carry the children to the edge of the village?
Then it is the former.
It happened that his subordinates were holding torches to check the situation of the house after the avalanche. There was no one dead in Gaohan Village. He was idle here, and he began to have the heart to look at Zhu Xingde and returned to the original topic.
This time, the official Jiang asked Zhu Xingde directly: "Is what he said the truth? Relatives?"
Zhu Xingde can't say that the old village chief is lying, right? He wouldn't he pretend to be inside:
“…Well, that’s true.”
I went to Han Village and Gaohan Village. I never dreamed of other villages in my dreams. I also had the word Han. I thought it was really destined to be.
At this time, Zhu Xingde was afraid of being questioned by a real official, so it would be normal.
Zhu Xingde had already thought about it. At worst, he and Erzhuzi were detained in the local county government. The wine team had a younger brother-in-law who continued to lead the team to deliver wine. I guess the younger brother-in-law would write a letter to Li Zhixian County, Yongdian County.
At that time, when the letter from Li Zhixian County to ask for the "criminal" arrived, he and Erzhuzi would be released.
What they do is to save people, not to harm the law. I believe the local magistrate would not be too difficult.
In short, to put it bluntly, everything depends on the result. What he did was to save hundreds of people.
Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda.
Do you think, he and Erzhuzi have saved so many times, how many levels of pagoda will they have to be?
As long as the local magistrate is not a stubborn person, he will turn a blind eye. Even if he thinks about it, he will secretly poke in his heart and be very grateful to them.
Otherwise, if such a villager died suddenly, would the local magistrate's black hat be fastened? Even if he was fastened, he would worry about losing a lot of hair.
To sum up, when Zhu Xingdecai faced officials in Jiang, his level of fear was average.
Official Jiang smiled and said, "Oh? Then your clothes?"
The old village chief stepped forward and blocked Zhu Xingde's official clothes with half of his body.
He seemed to understand everything now. If he had only guessed before, now, based on Zhu Xingde's half of the words, and Zhu Xingde's attitude that he dared not recognize these real officials, Zhu Xingde was a second pillar or a fake.
But the fake official is the real life-saving benefactor. He doesn't care, he does whatever he wants.
So the old village chief has something to say:
"This is done, it's done at home. It looks like it, but it's not." The old village chief hurriedly said to himself and said, "Well, official, listen to me, I have other situations in the avalanche to report." The old village chief wished he could come forward and pull the Jiang official away.
However, he didn't pull it, and he didn't dare to use his strength to pull the person away.
Not only did he not block Zhu Xingde, the old village chief was also pulled aside by officials in Jiang.
Official Jiang took the torch handed over by his subordinates. This time, he carefully looked at the yamen runners' clothes on Zhu Xingde's body, and reached out to touch the official card on Zhu Xingde's waist. He then pulled out the sword on Zhu Xingde's body and took a closer look with the torch. Then he confiscated the sword directly to his subordinates.
He signaled his two subordinates to operate as he did and also put away the second pillar sword hiding among the villagers.
Official Jiang then held up the official sign and stared at Zhu Xingde and smiled: "Li Wangcai? I didn't expect to meet you here, a coincidence."
Looking at the old village chief and the villagers who were unknown, it didn't seem to be saying it to these people. And this time the sound was louder, unlike before, when the cross-examination only a few people nearby could hear it.
Official Jiang shouted: "Li Wangcai is still my subordinate."
To be continued...
