Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

Seeing Zhai Changsun being taken away again by Zhang San and others, Chu Mo turned to look at the village chief and said: "Find me dozens of masters, I want to find someone to settle the score."

After saying that, he looked at Li Zhenying and said, "Brother Li, I also want to lend you a bodyguard."

Li Zhenying and the village chief greeted him and went out to call for help.

Soon, a team of almost 50 people gathered at the entrance of the village.

The leader of the Yangjia Village team was Yang Dazhi, the eldest son of the village chief's family. The leader of the Weiguogong Mansion team was naturally Li Zhenying and Li Deyu.

Chu Mo saw that everyone was here and said to Yang Dazhi: "Let's go to Shijiacun to help me find someone to settle the score."

When he heard that they were going to Shijia Village, Yang Dazhi led the way without saying a word.

The large group of people soon arrived at Shijia Village, not far from Yangjia Village.

As soon as they entered the village, several patched-up villagers came up to them from the opposite side, blocking everyone's way and asking them the purpose of coming.

The more clever ones went directly to report the news.

When Chu Mo saw this, he didn't stop him. Instead, he asked the villagers in front of him: "I heard that there is a man named Shitou in your village. He has a sister named Shi Xin, and there is also a widowed mother at home. I don't know if there is one." This person?"

The villager hesitated for a moment, shook his head, looked at Chu Mo with a strange expression and said, "I don't know about this matter. You can ask the village chief when he comes later."

After saying that, he stood blankly in the middle of the road, no matter how Chu Mo asked questions, he didn't say a word.

Just when Chu Mo was about to get angry, the villagers who had left before rushed over with a group of people.

The group of people rushed until they were in front of Chu Mo and his group, then stopped and looked at them.

While they were sizing up Chu Mo and his group, Chu Mo was also sizing them up.

Although this group of villagers are the same as the previous villagers, they are all wearing patchwork clothes, and they are all tall and tall. Except for Xiong Daxiong and Er Xiong, the rest of them are waiting for each other. He acts like a little chicken in front of others.

What made Chu Mo even more speechless was that in the hands of this group of people, except for the two big men in the lead who were holding two butcher knives, the rest of them were either holding various farm tools or carrying a... The big piece of wood looked like it was going to fight.

After comparing the size difference between the two sides, I was hesitating whether to strike first or not.

Another old man with a gray beard, energetic, and wearing fine cotton came over from the opposite side.

As soon as the old man came over, he saw Yang Dazhi behind Chu Mo. He immediately glared and cursed: "You little brat from Yangjia Village, why are you here in Shijia Village if you don't farm well at home?"

When Yang Dazhi was called by the old man, his dark face turned red and turned darker. He muttered: "Grandpa Shi, we are here today just to find someone..."

"Looking for someone, are you trying to coax a child? Do you need to bring dozens of people with you to find someone? Do you need to be so grand and armed to find someone? I don't think you are looking for trouble!"

As soon as the village chief opened his mouth, he was full of gunpowder.

Seeing Yang Dazhisan being trained like a grandson by an old man, Chu Mo pushed him aside, squinted his eyes and looked at the village chief and asked:

"Are you the head of this village?"

Seeing Chu Mo's bruised and swollen face, the village chief felt a twitch in his heart and thought to himself: Could it be that one of the children in the village beat someone outside and reported himself to his family, and now they are coming to his door?

With a cough, the village chief Yuanbei's straight figure instantly stooped, and his originally clear eyes instantly became dull:

"Ahem, that young man, are you looking in the wrong place? This is indeed Shijia Village, but there must not be the person you are looking for here."

"No? Are you sure? I didn't even say who I was looking for, and you decided so quickly?"

Seeing the village chief's dying look, completely different from when he first arrived, Chu Mo felt that this year's Best Actor Award must go to this old man.

"I'm sure, how can I be unsure? Our Shijia Village is all law-abiding people, and no one has left the village in the past few days. Therefore, the people you are looking for are definitely not from our village."

"Oh, really, but I didn't say that that person went out in the past few days. Also, that person is not a law-abiding person. He was imprisoned in prison before, but I saw it with my own eyes."

As soon as they heard that they were imprisoned, all the villagers took a step back as if they had encountered some ferocious beast.

The village chief trembled all over, looked at Chu Mo in horror and said, "Sir, are you from the official family?"

Seeing that the village chief and the villagers were so abnormal, Chu Mo rolled his eyes, took out his badge and handed it to the village chief:

"Yes, I am the newly appointed governor of Nanhai County and a county man of Nanhai County. We are here today to capture the fugitives. If you try to stop me, I will take you away together without any hesitation."

After speaking, he waved to everyone behind him.

When Xiong Daxiong Er saw this, he immediately pulled out the knife from his waist and shouted: "Hurry up and hand over this person, otherwise you will be charged with harboring."

The guards behind him also drew out their weapons at the right time, pretending to be extremely vicious.

When the village chief saw this, his calves trembled, and he stuttered: "Master, there is a misunderstanding. This is all a misunderstanding. We are all good citizens. The family that caused trouble has nothing to do with us at all. Please be careful, sir."

Seeing that the other party was so afraid of people from the government, although Chu Mo was confused, he didn't want to meddle in other people's business. He snorted coldly:

"Since it's none of your business, why don't you quickly lead the way and let us take away the criminal's family members? If it delays our important event, then none of you will be able to escape."

As he spoke, he glanced fiercely at the villagers opposite.

No one dared to look at Chu Mo, and they lowered their heads for fear of causing trouble.

At first, the village chief just regarded Chu Mo and his party as people from other villages who were looking for trouble, and then he led the villagers over.

If he knew that the other party was from the government, he would not dare to stop him even if he was brave.

You know, due to the drought, the village had not paid any of the grain taxes collected in the summer. I don't know if the government forgot or there was no time to collect them. In short, everyone was afraid of being visited by the government.

Although Chu Mo and his party were not here to collect food, the inherent fear still made these burly men avoid it.

Now that he heard that the other party just wanted to take the person away, the village chief immediately asked two people with fast legs to lead the way without saying a word.

However, as soon as Chu Mo and the others left, the villagers who were still gathered together suddenly dispersed, and they all ran home with a roar.

Even the village chief regained his energy in an instant. His legs were not shaking or he was out of breath, and he ran away without waiting for help.

When Chu Mo and his party noticed something unusual, except for the two leading villagers with sad and angry faces, there were no dogs around.
