Chapter 435 Human Selfishness

   "Who injured my son? Get out of here!" shouts came from outside.

  In the tavern, the shopkeeper wiped away his sweat again and again: "Everyone, you should go out and talk about anything. Our tavern is small, so it's not convenient to use it."

   These outsiders are all young men in their twenties. They are big and three rough. They are not easy to mess with. If there is a fight here later, the liquor store will be smashed. Who will pay?

  Shao Mingyuan Shi Shiran stood up: "Let's go out and have a look."

   Everyone walked out of the tavern together.

   There were dozens of people standing outside the tavern, led by a man in his 40s, with a fat body and a face.

  Yang Houcheng whispered in Chi Can's ear and said, "Shi Xi, this person is a bit like the person you knocked out just now. It seems that he beat his son Laozi."

   Chi Can raised his lips in disapproval.

   Shao Mingyuan has seen the skills of those personal guards, and if they are trapped by people in a small town, it would be a joke.

  In this case, why should he let himself be wronged?

   "This is our mayor of Haimendu!" said one of the people who ran away earlier.

   "Hey, in such a small town, there is actually a mayor?" Chi Can said coolly, the sarcasm in his words made people angry.

  The Daliang government consisted of prefectures and counties, and under the counties there were townships, but the so-called mayor was often a local gentry appointed by the county decree, not a real court official.

   "You hurt my son?" The mayor stared at Chi Can.

   The person who reported the news said that the person who injured his son was a peerless beauty who disguised himself as a man, and it must be the person in front of him!

   No, he has an Adam's apple!

   The mayor took a careful look at Chi Can and looked up in anger.

  These blind bastards!

   "What are you still doing, give it to me, and cut the little beast who injured the young master to me!"

These people brought by the mayor are used to being domineering. In the past, they robbed young women in the town for business, and beating people was commonplace. Now, although the people they are facing are a little difficult to mess with, they are not afraid of them because they have a lot of people on their side. The mayor ordered them all to rush up.

   These people are just born strong, let alone boxing and kicking skills, they can't even be arrogant. They all rely on ruthlessness and brute force to support them. Even Binglu is unwilling to rush up, and it didn't take long to turn over two.

   This melee ended at a speed that was completely unexpected to the people in the town.

   The mayor's side was crushed.

   "You dare to disobey the orders of the county magistrate?" shouted the mayor Se Li Neijen.

   "Uh, what is the order of the county magistrate?" Shao Mingyuan asked.

   The mayor sneered: "The county magistrate gave me the right to choose women, but you openly disobeyed with three women, are you going to rebel?"

   "The right to choose women?" Chi Can sneered, "When today Zi hasn't selected the best beauties in the world for many years, why don't we know that a county magistrate still has this power?"

   "Stop talking nonsense, you leave these three women behind today, I can let you all go, otherwise, no one wants to leave here!"

   bang bang bang.

   Applause came.

   Yang Houcheng laughed and said, "Are you stupid, who are these people lying on the ground now? Why did you keep us?"

   "Why?" The mayor smiled grimly, "So, are you planning to leave people behind?"

   "Nonsense!" Yang Houcheng sneered.

   "If that's the case, don't blame me for being rude." The mayor's eyes flashed with a light like a viper.

   Even if these people handed over the three women, he did not intend to let one go. He hurt his son and wanted to leave safely? Just dreaming!

  The mayor took a slow look at the crowd, then suddenly turned around and shouted at those who were watching the excitement: "What are you watching, why don't you help me take down these people!"

  The people who came out of the town to watch the excitement looked at each other.

   The mayor's family has never done anything good, so they don't want to help.

   Seeing that people were standing still, the mayor sneered: "Folks, do you think this is helping me? No, it's helping yourselves!"

   These idiots just want to watch the fun and don't think about it. If they can't find a suitable woman, what should they do when the Japanese pirates come!

   Hearing what the mayor said, the people watching the fun still didn't move.

Seeing this, the mayor was so angry that he shouted loudly: "Have you forgotten about the Japanese pirates? The woman who was sent last time was too old, so they were disgusted by them. , do you think those Japanese pirates are vegetarians?"

   The expression of the person who was watching the excitement changed greatly, and the eyes looked at Qiao Zhao and the others were a little different.

The mayor said again and again: "You forgot how the Japanese pirates came to the town to burn, kill and loot in the past? Is it possible that they have become fools after living in peace for a long time? You are letting these people go now, and the unlucky ones will be when the Japanese pirates come. you guys!"

   After listening to the mayor's words, the people watching the excitement approached Qiao Zhao and the others step by step.

   Yang Houcheng was shocked: "Crazy, these people are crazy, is there any humanity?"

  Chi Can clenched the long knife around his waist and sneered: "Humanity? Humanity is inherently selfish. We are not theirs. If we leave us to deal with the Japanese pirates, won't they be able to survive for a while?"

   "What's the use of that? Are they going to be unlucky next time?" Yang Houcheng felt incredible.

   "If you can use an unimportant outsider to pass this stage, who will think about the next time?" Shao Mingyuan said calmly.

   Looking at the approaching crowd, Yang Houcheng sweated on his forehead: "Tingquan, what should we do? These are ordinary people who are helpless."

   "Show your identity. If you still can't make them back down, then hit them back." The young general said coldly.

  The common people who have no power to tie the chicken? In the Northland, he has seen too many people like this, and the brutality can make people jaw-dropping.

   However, no matter how cruel the people in the north were, they did not personally sacrifice the women of Daliang to the Tartars.

  The people he defends should always have something worth defending. If these people intend to hurt his most important people and lose the bottom line of being a person, why should he protect these "people" who can no longer be called people?

   Yang Houcheng raised his hand to show the token: "We are Jin Wuwei who went overseas to do business on the order of the Queen Mother, don't you hurry to retreat!"

  The people who came around stopped and looked at the mayor.

   The mayor was stunned for a while, then sneered: "Jin Wuwei, who was ordered by the Queen Mother? Why didn't you say that it was Jinlinwei who was ordered by the Son of Heaven? What are you doing? Don't listen to their nonsense!"

   At this moment, a hooves sounded, and the sound became more and more urgent.

   The mayor's expression changed greatly, and he shouted: "The Japanese pirates are here, everyone, quickly arrest those three women!"

   The sound of hooves was like a reminder, and the people in the town did not hesitate to rush towards Qiao Zhao and the others.

   For this update, I would like to thank Peggiewai for the He Shibi that he donated in February.
