I'm playing tricks in Daqin

"You don't need to trouble yourself so much. In fact, as long as it's a dead body, it's fine, whether it's a dead animal or a human."
"Human? You don't want to kill people, do you? Besides, someone asked you to kill casually?"
At this time, Ma Chuan'an hadn't figured it out yet, Li Wei said helplessly: "What Li Xianfu means is, just kill us and bury us in the ground."
"Impossible! How dare Li Xianfu do anything to me?"
"My lord, he is right, we really want to kill you."
Hearing Li Xianfu's answer, Ma Chuan'an was stunned, "You, you bastard! How dare you make such a joke with me... You, what are you all doing blankly? Didn't you see that Lizheng went crazy, take him away quickly Down!"
Ma Chuan'an's words really helped, but none of the villagers were prepared to take down Lizheng, and they even clenched their farm tools and began to approach.
Even a fool can understand what happened at this moment. Ma Chuanan looked at them in disbelief, and said in shock, "I am Marquis Wenyang! How dare you kill me?"
Lijia Village has been the food town of Wenyanghou's mansion for generations. When the former Tang Dynasty was still there, whenever there was a war, the young and strong in the village would go to war with Wenyanghou.
Ma Chuanan finds it even more inconceivable that a century-old servant of his family dared to kill him than being bitten by his own dog.
Sensing the strong murderous intent around them, several guards brought by Ma Chuan'an drew their swords one after another, but they were already old and had little deterrent effect on the villagers.
"I am Marquis Wenyang!"
Ma Chuanan roared unwillingly.
"My lord, at this time, you are useless to anyone, you all have to stay here."
"Why, why?"
If he hadn't been full of self-confidence, Ma Chuan'an would not have dared to go to Li's Village with four elderly guards. Now that the villagers wanted to kill him, after the initial panic, Ma Chuan'an just wanted to know the reason.
"We did buy a woman, but we don't want to die, so you people who know the inside story must die, come on!"
Ma Minjun usually fights against injustices, but what she deals with are all the punks in the city. She has never seen such a battle before, and she keeps backing away in fright.
At this moment, Li Wei strode forward and directly blocked her behind.
"I see who dares you! Whoever is taking a step forward, kill without mercy!"
As soon as the words fell, the six guards behind Li Wei pulled their bowstrings one after another. This scene really scared the villagers.
"What are you afraid of? There are only a few of them? Just a few steps away, they don't have a second chance to shoot arrows. If you charge up, you will die. If you don't charge, we will all die. Charge for me!"
This is Li Renhe's "hereditary" position, and he is very prestigious in the village. After hearing what he said, the villagers slowly approached him, although their faces were full of fear.
Ma Chuanan couldn't help urging: "What are you doing here in a daze, shoot arrows!"
"No one should shoot arrows! Once we make a move, they will pounce on us, and we will have no way out!"
"When is this, and you still want to retreat? The only way out is to rush out! If you don't do it, I will do it!"
"It's because at this time, I can't do anything. I don't need to use a knife. I can solve it."
Hearing Li Wei's words, Ma Chuan'an laughed angrily, "I thought I, Ma Chuan'an, was pedantic enough, but I didn't expect you to be even more pedantic than me. If this matter can be resolved without using a knife, I, I, Ma Chuan'an, will serve you, the Great Qin Dynasty! "
Chapter 683 It's Different
"You said, don't forget."
"Of course I won't forget what I said, because I'm afraid you, Daqin, won't get the chance to be loyal to me."
With a cold snort, Li Wei walked forward regardless of the guards' obstruction.
"It's over, he was scared stupid."
"This is what a man does, he is a great hero."
Ma Minjun said with a blurred look in his eyes.
The villagers in Lijia Village suddenly attacked, and his father panicked. On the contrary, Li Wei remained calm and protected himself with his body.
Ma Minjun lived in the noble circle of the former Tang Dynasty. This group of guys who were bent on begging for a living when the country was ruined and their families were in ruins, except for their invincible mouth, everyone has ability and character. Ma Minjun has never seen a hero like Li Wei. Pass.
Li Renhe didn't know what Li Wei was going to do, but he also knew that he couldn't be given a chance to speak, so he yelled: "They are all stunned, hurry up and finish their work, they are all wealthy people, they must have a lot of money!"
In the barren Lijia Village, it is a dream to eat enough. Most of the villagers have never even seen what kind of money is. When they heard this, their eyes turned red.
Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Ma Chuan'an had a kind of gloating thought, "I don't know how to live or die, Qin people are so conceited."
"Father...you shouldn't say anything about him, he...he is also for us."
Ma Minjun explained in a low voice.
"Li Renhe! You know that you are bound to die, and you will implicate all the villagers who don't need to die with you. You are too selfish, how can you be worthy of being Li Zheng!"
Li Wei, who had exerted his internal strength, was full of energy. Every farmer was stunned when he heard Li Wei's words. This, this is different from what the village chief said.
"You, what are you talking about? We don't have to die?"
A middle-aged farmer asked tentatively.
Li Renhe shouted hastily: "Don't listen to his nonsense! It is said in the Daqin law that anyone who betrays someone, regardless of whether he has already betrayed him or not, will be hanged. Those who know how to buy are also guilty of the same crime! Ma Chuan'an, do you think so?"
Seeing Ma Chuan'an nodding, Li Wei wanted to rush forward to give Team Pig a big "hug" and strangle him to death.
The villagers who have supported the Marquis of Wenyang Mansion for generations naturally regard Ma Chuan'an as the greatest authority. He nodded, which meant that Li Renhe was not lying.
"Don't talk nonsense with them, come on!"
"They know that we have bought people, if they don't kill them, we will be hanged!"
"Those who want to live, rush with me, kill them, and we can live!"
The villagers in the poor mountains and rivers don't understand any major principles, let alone the law. Li Zheng said so, and Wen Yanghou also said the same, so it is true.
Killing people in order to keep themselves alive immediately made the villagers feel less guilty.
Looking at the villagers who had already raised their agricultural tools and were about to charge, Li Wei said loudly: "They are right. Our Daqin has always punished human traffickers severely. The law is merciless. , and will not be implicated just because he is in the same village as the criminal.
Human trafficking has always been a crime that the court has focused on cracking down on, but the penalties are also differentiated.
If the person to be sold is willing, the punishment of both the seller and the seller can be reduced, and the buyer will not be hanged. If the person who is sold is under ten years old, the seller will be punished severely regardless of whether the seller is willing or not.
Those who serve as slaves after being sold shall be sentenced to death by hanging, and those who are the descendants of wives and concubines shall be sentenced to three years in prison.
I don't think any of you can afford slaves and maidservants. You buy people to be wives, right? "
Hearing Li Wei's words, many villagers thought about it. They thought that as long as they bought a wife, they would surely die, but now that they heard it, it seemed that there were other ways.
These villagers are not fierce soldiers or old bandits. Knowing that they don't need to die, they lose the courage to fight hard.
Li Wei hit the iron while it was hot: "The imperial court will reward the leader."
"What is sue?"
"Even if you report it, we don't know who bought a daughter-in-law in the village. Whoever reports it will be rewarded with ten taels of silver!"
As soon as the words fell, there was a gasp in the audience. Li Wei guessed correctly, even if it is buying a wife, not every household can afford it. Only a few in the village buy a wife.
Realizing something was wrong, Li Renhe hurriedly shouted: "Don't listen to his nonsense, how can he take out ten taels of silver?"
"You don't believe me, don't you believe in the Marquis of Wenyang?"
For Ma Chuan'an, Li Wei was completely disappointed, and looked directly at Ma Minjun.
Ma Minjun also immediately understood Li Wei's meaning, and echoed: "You don't believe in the government, don't you believe in the Marquis's mansion? I will pay with Wenyang Hou's mansion now. If the government doesn't reward you, you can go to Wenyang Marquis' mansion to move." thing!"
The prestige of hundreds of years has allowed the Wenyanghou Mansion to establish absolute authority in the hearts of the villagers. With Ma Minjun's guarantee, no one doubts whether the reward will be honored.
Many people's eyes became redder, and their breathing became short of breath.
For the villagers who have never seen silver, they don't know how much ten taels of silver is, but they know that such a large sum of money is definitely enough for them to buy a generous betrothal gift, and get married in a serious manner. A daughter-in-law.
Maybe I can build a new house, go to the city to buy a few sheep, and I will have a bright future. If I can buy a cow, oh, such a beautiful day, I really dare not even think about it.
The villagers who didn't buy a wife and didn't commit a crime all subconsciously looked at the villagers who committed the crime. The villagers who were targeted naturally knew what they were thinking and backed away one after another.
The villagers who originally wanted to besiege Li Wei and his party had split into two opposing groups.
As Li Zheng, Li Renhe's family is naturally richer than other villagers, and they are also included in the ranks of criminals without exception. He asked viciously: "Everyone is of the same family in the same village. Are you going to work for outsiders now? Are you not afraid of death?" Can't even enter the ancestral grave!"
"Li Renhe, the time has come for you to die, and you still want to fight? I am an official of the court. If you kill an official, you will rebel! Even if you buy a population, you will only die one person. If you rebel, you will implicate the nine clans. Who of you is willing to follow? Li Renhe killed the whole family together?"
Hearing this, Li Renhe's supporters were also shaken. They didn't want to die, but they didn't want the whole family to die with them.
"Don't listen to his nonsense! As long as you kill them, outsiders will not know what happened, and none of us need to die!"
Li Wei sneered and said, "The imperial court rewards those who sue the leader, and rewards people who buy and sell people. If they report rebellion, the rewards will be even higher. Can you guarantee that no one in the whole village will report to the government?"
These words directly stunned everyone. People's hearts are always the most complicated thing. They all know that someone in the village will definitely report for money.
Realizing that something was wrong, Li Renhe shouted loudly: "Our ancestors are watching us from the sky! Who of you dares to mess around! Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to kill your ancestors after you die?"
In a closed and superstitious village, the ancestors have enough weight. Upon hearing this, everyone hesitated again.
Li Renhe's son also echoed: "Everyone has entered Guiyuan Dao, not only relatives, but also brothers. You have forgotten what the teaching method says? Love each other and help each other. If you betray the brothers in the teaching, If you die, you will suffer eighty kinds of torture, and in your next life you will be reborn as a pig or a dog!"
Hear "Gui Yuan Dao"
Three words, Li Wei couldn't help frowning, there really are these rat-like guys everywhere.
"It's over, the villagers are superstitious, they don't dare to report to each other, take advantage of their confusion, rush out!"
Ma Chuanan urged in a low voice.
"It's easy for us to rush out, but what about after that?"
"Go to the county guard, find the county lieutenant, send troops over here, and capture them all!"
"Then?"
"Then? Naturally, bring all the villains to justice."
"And then what?"
Ma Chuan'an said impatiently: "Are you finished? What else?"
"The villagers are not fools, and they won't wait to be killed here. As long as we run away, they will pack up their belongings and flee to the mountains to seek refuge. Even if troops are dispatched, there will only be an empty village left."
"Ah... That's right, that's all, God has the virtue of loving life, most of them will not deserve to die, so just run away."
Hearing this, Ma Minjun nodded in agreement, obviously approving of Ma Chuan'an's benevolence.
"I heard a story before, on the beach..."
"Just say what you want, don't make up stories to humiliate me!"
Ma Chuanan said angrily.
"Okay, let me just say it directly. There are many snakes, insects, and beasts in the mountains. Hunters like mountains can't come back alive every time, let alone take a group of old and weak women and children to seek refuge like mountains. It sounds simple, but you know it will How many people died? Even if they survived by luck, they can farm the land, but the daily necessities such as salt and cloth cannot be produced. In order to survive, they can only become bandits and rob passers-by at the foot of the mountain. How many innocent people will be there because of this? Misfortune? You haven’t forgotten the original purpose of this trip, right? It was to rescue the betrayed women, but they were all taken into the mountains and forests, and you rescued one? What didn’t work, but killed many people? Is that what you call benevolence?"
In Li Wei's eyes, Ma Chuan'an is more hateful than Zheng Xunze. Zheng Xiangze's crimes of deliberately destroying the poor are heinous, but he at least has the clear purpose of wanting to be promoted.
Ma Chuan'an used the banner of benevolence to help people and save people everywhere, but in the end he didn't help anyone or save anyone. Instead, he entrapped more people and was unanimously praised.
After that, Ma Chuan'an will do better "good deeds", harm more people, and gain greater fame.
A person who likes to do things but can't do them is far more harmful than a person who has the ability to do things but doesn't.
"This, I didn't expect this..."
"You are Marquis Wenyang, you are a powerful person, if you don't think about it, many people will die."
I am dozens of years old, and everyone spreads the name of my benevolence and righteousness, but now I have to be educated by others, and my anger will burn Ma Chuan'an.
"I...well, I was wrong this time, but I want to see how you thought about it. By the way, don't forget, as I said before, this matter can be resolved without using a knife."
Nodding his head, Li Wei said loudly: "I am an official, and Ma Chuan'an, the Marquis, has such a distinguished status. Do you really think that we dare to enter Li's Village with only a few people?"
Chapter 684 Support Comes
"You, what do you mean?"
"The entire village has been surrounded by officers and soldiers. I told you so much nonsense just now to give you a chance to surrender, but you are so stubborn. I am very disappointed."
Looking outside, Li Xianfu sneered and said, "Who are you scaring? How could there be any officers and soldiers outside?"
"Don't you believe it? Look carefully!"
Li Wei clenched his right hand and raised it high. Li Xianfu was squinting his eyes to see what Li Wei was going to do, when a cool wind suddenly blew through the back of his head, and there was an exclamation immediately behind him.
"Come on, what happened? What's your ghost name?"
"Lizheng, you, look!"
