Chapter 30 30. Lawlessness (please read later)
A group of people rushed straight from Xiao Mo Fang to the county as if they were escorting prisoners.
Li Yuan knew from memory that there was a blacksmith shop on this road. In addition to selling farm tools, it also sold ordinary swords and the like.
When he came to sell prey last year, he vaguely saw bows hanging in the blacksmith shop, but he didn't go in.
First, his archery skills were half-baked, and he couldn't even pull the better bows;
Second, he was short of money.
But now is different from the past. Li Yuan has a hundred big coins in his pocket, which is a full ten taels of silver!
Normally, he must go straight to the government office and go to the blacksmith shop after the matter is settled.
But when Li Yuan walked to the door of the blacksmith shop, he suddenly said: "Please wait for me for a while."
Then he asked: "Who will help me hold the rope?"
No one answered.
Li Yuan was about to add money when a voice suddenly said, "Brother Yuan, I'll watch for you."
Li Yuan looked and saw that this was a tall and thin young man named Tian Bao, who was the child of Uncle Youcai in the village. He was usually very dull and didn't communicate much with others. The reason why he was not conscripted this time was because he had an older brother.
One person was conscripted from each family, and his brother went, so he naturally didn't go.
As for Uncle Youcai, because his leg was broken and he lay in bed all day, he was not counted in the lottery.
Perhaps stimulated by various things, this dull boy also began to walk out of his own world.
"Okay." Li Yuan handed the rope to Tian Bao and walked into the blacksmith shop.
For him, sending Uncle Ma to the official was just a secondary matter.
His real big thing was to buy a bow.
In the blacksmith shop.
After a lot of bargaining, Li Yuan spent 20 big coins to buy a good iron bow.
This was because of the famine, the price of food increased four or five times, but the price of weapons did not increase much.
Last year, it would have cost 16 coins to buy an iron bow.
After buying an iron bow, he naturally had to buy arrows. He bought a small pot of arrows, about ten of them, which cost 20 coins in total.
The blacksmith gave him a nice quiver, which was free.
In a blink of an eye, 40 of the 100 coins were gone.
Li Yuan held the bow and scanned his own stats.
Wow, it has increased a lot!
Originally, his overall strength was "24~25" when he was holding the earthen bow, but now it has become "(27)39~(28)40".
Suddenly, Li Yuan felt more confident. When he carried the bow, his temperament changed slightly. But he adjusted his state and walked out of the blacksmith shop in a less high-profile manner.
But he knew that from now on, he could show his strength below 10 without restraint.
And this strength is the peak among the unranked warriors.
When Li Yuan walked out of the door, everyone stared at him in amazement, and there was no sound.
Tian Bao opened his mouth and asked with some admiration: "Brother Yuan, can you pull this bow?"
Li Yuan said nothing, flipped his left hand, quickly took off the big bow, took the arrow with his right hand, put the string on, and pulled it open, all in one go.
Instantly, a dangerous aura emanated from his body.
The people accompanying him in the village were stunned.
This brother Yuan was half dead two days ago, but he is so powerful today?
Everyone had some evil thoughts in their hearts, but now, their thoughts began to disperse.
Looking at Uncle Ma again, they all had sympathetic expressions.
Uncle Ma was also confused
Fuck, if I had known you would recover so quickly, if I had known you were so powerful, would I be crazy to take a knife to your house in the middle of the night to steal money? !
After Li Yuan finished pulling the bow, he put it away calmly, and this action of returning the bow without shooting actually tested his physical strength.
"Brother Yuan, I was wrong."
Uncle Ma was not going to be a fool anymore, he wanted to admit his mistake.
"We are all neighbors, and I am old, so why don't we just forget it?"
Li Yuan glanced at him and said, "Why didn't you think of that when you were holding the knife and blowing the drug yesterday?"
"Please forgive me when you can, Brother Yuan." Uncle Ma continued to beg.
Li Yuan said coldly, "You used the knife yesterday.
If I was weak and my strength was a little less, what would the result be?
If it wasn't me, but my wife, what would she do?"
Uncle Ma stopped talking.
Li Yuan took the rope from Tian Bao's hand and led Uncle Ma to the county government office.
Li Yuan walked on the streets of Shanbao County, his eyes also scanning around.
This county is much more lively than Xiao Mofang.
The vendors on both sides of the street were setting up stalls, selling all kinds of things, some selling fruit and tea, some selling cloth and making clothes, some selling steamed buns, dumplings and meat soup, some selling wine, some selling women's headdresses and hairpins, some selling children's toys, and some selling candy figurines and candied haws.
In short, the richness of the goods is not comparable to that of Xiao Mofang.
As for the public security, you can know a thing or two just by looking at the people walking on the street.
On this street, people can at least buy and sell goods openly.
I didn't expect that the county soldiers were defeated, the county magistrate was gone, and the county lieutenant was gone, but the public security in the county was still so good.
Besides being unbelievable, Li Yuan couldn't help but feel a longing in his heart.
If I can live here, if nothing else, at least I can take Sister Yan to the street occasionally and buy two new clothes.
At night, you can still go out for a walk, have a little romance, and enjoy a moment of luxurious relaxation in the tense world. It is not like in Xiaomofang, where you can only make love after dark.
Soon, the group arrived at the county government office.
The county government office was closed, and there was nowhere to hand in the petition.
Li Yuan handed the rope to Tian Bao and stepped forward to play the drum.
Boom, boom, boom.
After beating the drum for a long time, the county government office was still closed.
Li Yuan waited for a while, but there was still no movement.
He grabbed the drumstick again, beat his arms, and started beating.
Boom, boom, boom.
The sound spreads far.
After a long time, the county government door slowly opened, and a young man wearing the clothes of a government servant came out.
Li Yuan glanced at the saber officer and found that his overall strength was "7~8".
He took the paper written by Mrs. Yan, handed it over with both hands, and said politely: "My lord, yesterday, Ma Liu from Xiao Mo Fang broke into the house with a knife, intending to steal money and commit murder, and I caught him.
All the people in the village can testify. "
The yamen servant glanced at the mud-legged men in front of him and did not accept the paper. He just looked at Uncle Ma and asked, "Did you break into the house with a knife? Steal money and commit murder?"
Uncle Ma hurriedly said: "It's unfair, I don't have any."
The officer glanced at Li Yuan and said, "Okay, let's go back."
Li Yuan was stunned for a moment and said: "The person got both the stolen goods, so why not put him on trial? And it should be up to the boss to decide whether to put him to trial or not, right?"
The officer frowned and said, "Are you questioning me?"
Uncle Ma next to him rolled his eyes and suddenly said: "Master, Master, I have something to report!"
The yamen servant said impatiently: "What's the matter?"
Uncle Ma stared at Li Yuandao: "He! That's him!
He is the most powerful person in our village, but he skipped military service!
More than a month ago, adults came to my little ink shop to recruit soldiers, and he fled to the mountains! "
The crowd was silent, but Tian Bao said angrily: "Damn it, nun, who didn't see how miserable Brother Yuan was when he came back? Was he hiding?"
Uncle Ma snorted coldly: "Isn't he doing well now? Then he is hiding!"
Tian Baodao: "That's because my sister-in-law was willing to spend money and bought good medicine for Brother Yuan!"
Uncle Ma ignored him and just looked at the officer and said: "Master, deserting military service is a serious crime. If you report this matter, it will be a great achievement."
The yamen officer stared at him strangely, then glanced at Li Yuan and asked, "Are you running away to the mountains to avoid military service?"
Li Yuan shook his head and said: "No, absolutely not."
The yamen servant waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's all go back."
After saying that, he glanced at the iron bow Li Yuan was carrying on his back and asked, "Can you pull it open?"
Li Yuan nodded.
The officer glanced at him and said, "Try it."
Li Yuan turned over and took off the big bow, nocking the arrow, and pulled the string. He stopped when he consciously pulled the string to a comprehensive strength of about 10.
The yamen officer nodded and praised: "What a good man! Put it away!"
Li Yuan accepted it.
The officer stepped forward and whispered: "Seeing that you are a man, I will tell you the truth and treat you as a friend.
The boss of the county, Bo, is dead, and now two families have the final say in Shanbao County.
They are also responsible for maintaining law and order.
If the old man fucks you, if you don't like it, just do it quietly, no one will care about it now. "
After saying that, the officer patted Li Yuan on the shoulder.
Li Yuan handed over ten large coins just in time and asked: "What do you call me, brother?"
"Cai Ze, where are you, brother?"
"My name is Li Yuan."
The two of them hugged each other, and then the yamen officer closed the door again.
Behind the door, Uncle Ma was dumbfounded, so frightened that he urinated and fell to the ground.
