Tang Zheng was dazed, and suddenly she heard someone tapping on the car door, and she opened her eyes.

Wen Lan sneered after hearing this: "These people are really arrogant. They charge tolls to the police and soldiers."

The police officer who was driving the car rolled down the window and asked in a deep voice: "How much does it cost?"

The road was blocked by a few people dressed as rural people. There were private houses on both sides, and there was a huge long pit in the middle of the originally wide and flat dirt road.

There are two wooden boards on the slope next to it. It seems that only those who have paid the toll can pass by pressing the two wooden boards.

The first villager was biting into a corn tortilla and grinning like a big yellow tooth: "The toll is one hundred."

Gao Bing was extremely angry and laughed back: "You are so rampant, don't the police station care?"

"Oh, I want to sue the police station. Let me tell you that the director of the police station is the brother-in-law of our village chief. We are all relatives of the emperor!"

After speaking, the big yellow tooth chewing on the corn tortilla stretched out his finger and dug into the gap between his teeth with his black nails.

What he dug out from between his teeth seemed to be the remains of the pickles he had eaten before. Then he put the remains into his mouth, chewed them, and swallowed them.

After Tang Zheng saw it, he immediately covered his mouth and became disgusted. The faces of several other people were not very good-looking either.

Gao Bing calmed down: "You mean, if I don't pay, I won't be allowed to pass, right?"

Two more villagers came over from behind. One of them had a bad temper and a loud voice: "What nonsense are you talking about? Pay the money quickly. If you don't pay, you won't be able to survive until the Year of the Monkey."

Gao Bing glanced at Gu Fan, and the two of them got out of the car.

Gu Fan flexed his wrist: "You guys think, if we beat you up, can we pass this road?"

The big yellow-toothed man eating corn cakes said "Hey" after hearing this, and raised his hand to say hello: "Fellows in the countryside, if someone is causing trouble, they should be raped!"

The two villagers at the back were a little unhappy: "Lao Liu, there are so many of us, can't we deal with them?"

Another one said: "Knock them down and we can requisition this car. This will save us having to rely on two legs to go out in the future!"

Gao Bing said angrily with a dark face: "You are so arrogant!"

Dahuang Ya took another bite of the pancake: "Are you crazy? The crazy ones are still to come!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the doors of the neighboring houses suddenly opened, and many people rushed over with tools. People working in the fields in the distance also rushed over with their own farm tools. .

This scene was a bit spectacular. Tang Zheng and Xiao Beiqi, who were watching the excitement, changed their expressions, and the injured Wen Lan also hurriedly got out of the car.

"Which turtle dares to cause trouble? I won't smash his head with a shovel!"

The old man, who was almost missing all his teeth, and whose coarse clothes were all patched up, held a shovel in his hand and rushed over here first. When he saw Gao Bing, he was going to slap Gao Bing on the head.

When Tang Zheng saw so many people cheering and cheering around, they didn't want to fight hard, so they quickly stepped forward to smooth things over: "Sir, this is all a misunderstanding. Can you put this guy down and talk to him if you have anything to say?"

Tang Zheng said, the more he looked at the old man, the more familiar and familiar he felt, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.

After seeing Tang Zheng's doll, the old man hesitated for a moment and then took back the shovel in his hand.

Otherwise, this sudden slap on Gao Bing's head would have blinded him.

The old man spoke impatiently: "Pay your money happily, and we will let you go, otherwise don't blame us for being rude!"

Someone was yelling from behind: "Yes, pay the money quickly, or I will break your arms and legs!"

Seeing the ferocious expressions of each of the villagers, as if they wanted to eat them all, Tang Zheng understood for the first time the meaning of the word "strong folk customs".

If in normal times, in order not to cause trouble, I would just give the money, and I would consider myself unlucky.

But Tang Zheng had just lost a large sum of money, let alone one hundred, and she was unwilling to give him even one dollar.

Moreover, this one police officer and three soldiers were bullied by these villagers, and their lifelong wisdom was ruined.

Gao Bing looked at Xiao Beiqi with a dark face: "I can take down five of them, what about you?"

When the old man holding the shovel heard this, he cursed and tried to slap Gao Bing on the head again.

Tang Zheng quickly pulled Gao Bing behind and explained to the old man with a smile: "Uncle, don't be angry. His brain is not very good. Don't be the same as him."

Now that there are so many villagers, there might be a fight, and more villagers will come. It is said that a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake, and this is the truth.

Seeing Tang Zheng's pleasant expression, the old man took a long breath: "If you don't have ten yuan, give me five yuan, no more!"

It used to cost one hundred, but now it has been reduced to five yuan, which shocked Tang Zheng and Xiao Beiqi.

Tang Zheng didn't want to give up a dime. What if you paid and these people still didn't let you go?

She lowered her eyes, rolled her eyes, and then pulled Wen Lan aside, who was bending over and holding her stomach.

Just now, when Wen Lan heard that they were going to fight, he moved a little violently when he got out of the car, which caused a wound on his abdomen, which is still hurting now.

After Tang Zheng pulled Wen Lan over, he pinched himself silently: "Uncle, fellow villagers, I also know that your life is difficult, but our life is also difficult..."

A woman with plateau red face snorted: "The cars are already driving, but your life is not easy. Are you kidding me?"

Tang Zheng said: "This car is not ours, we borrowed it. My mother gave my sister to the contractor in our town to be her daughter-in-law, so she borrowed this car..."

After saying that, Tang Zheng patted Wen Lan on the shoulder: "This is my third brother... I was diagnosed with a serious illness some time ago... I'm afraid... my first two brothers are also seriously ill. died……"

Not to mention how ugly Wen Lan's face was, as if he had eaten a dead fly.

He had a skin injury and was cursed by Tang Zheng to become an incurable disease. He was really unlucky for eight lifetimes.

Tang Zheng's eyes turned red as he spoke: "These are all relatives of my family. They couldn't bear to let my eldest brother leave just like that. They said they were taking him to Shanghai to see a doctor. This is all our life-saving money... "

Tang Zheng said and patted his empty pocket.

The villagers were all silent after hearing this. The old man in the lead hesitated and said: "Otherwise... let them pass without charging tolls..."

None of the villagers spoke. There were too few cars these days. Not one passed by for three days. They finally caught one. They originally wanted to get some money to feed the family, but now their efforts were in vain. They Not reconciled either.

"Thank you, thank you, let's go first."

Tang Zheng looked happy and winked at a few people while saying thank you. He had better get in the car and drive away. It would be bad if they regretted it.

"Liar!" A sharp-eyed young man saw the clue: "Since he is seriously ill and his family conditions are so poor, why is he still wearing new clothes!"

Only then did Tang Zheng notice that the shirt Wen Lan was wearing was new, and the wrinkles on the clothes were still clearly visible.

Tang Zheng cried louder: "My mother bought this specially when he was leaving. She said that my third brother has never worn new clothes in his life, and I'm afraid this is the only time he can wear them... "

Gao Bing and Gu Fan held back their laughter and looked at Xiao Beiqi. This is really a living treasure. He can tell such lies. He is also a talent.

Xiao Beiqi ignored the looks of these people and kept looking at Tang Zheng, fearing that Tang Zheng would be bullied if he disagreed with these villagers.

Wen Lan looked at Tang Zheng and gritted his teeth. If it wasn't for Xiao Beiqi's sake, he would have broken the rule of not hitting women.

"Ah wu wu... I miss my big brother..."

There was a girl in the crowd. Perhaps because her eldest brother had just died of illness, she suddenly became sad and cried bitterly, covering her mouth.
