I saw that brawny man, just when the middle-aged man turned around, he saw that he was going to run away, he couldn't help frowning, but this frown ruined the simple and honest color on his Fang Zheng's big face. The raised eyebrows made his face full of fortitude, and it seemed that even the clarity and simplicity in his eyes were diminished a lot.
The middle-aged man turned around and wanted to squeeze into the crowd. The strong man had already stepped up to catch up, spread his right hand like a fan and grabbed the middle-aged man's neck. This step seemed to take no rush or slow, but it instantly surpassed the distance of the middle-aged man a few steps.
The middle-aged man seemed to feel the gust of wind behind him. He bowed his head hurriedly, his left foot was lighter, and his right foot stepped to the right. A sliding step had already escaped the grasp.
The burly man saw that he was not doing anything, then leaned forward and backhanded, grabbing at the middle-aged man's left shoulder. As he felt, the middle-aged man quickly bent and twisted his waist again, and turned around to face the strong man.
The brawny man stepped forward and stretched out his left hand and grasped again. The middle-aged man seemed to be surprised by the strength of the strong man. He took a step back and his upper body flashed back. The strong man leaned forward and grabbed it.
However, the middle-aged man grabbed the brawny man’s left wrist, leaned forward, and jumped up and stepped towards the brawny man’s waist. With the movements of his hands, he pulled the brawny man’s forward body even more obliquely, as if Immediately lose his balance and fall to the ground!
The brawny man reacted fairly swiftly, and hurriedly took a lunge to stabilize the bottom plate. The middle-aged man leaned forward with the force of that step, and even rode on the strong man's neck, held hands with each other, and slammed on the strong man's head.
The strong man didn’t care about the middle-aged man’s movements. The middle-aged man, with a joyful smile, slammed his fists firmly on the strong man’s head, but the strong man seemed to be innocent, just grabbing the middle-aged man’s double leg.
The middle-aged man did not dare to be caught. With the help of a smash, his waist seemed to be lifted up by something. He pulled his legs out, leaned forward with his waist, and tried to escape with his feet on the ground. This time it failed. The burly man’s sturdy thighs quickly jumped out, grabbing the back of the middle-aged man’s neck with his left hand. The middle-aged man gyrated in a flat circle and pressed heavily on the position where he had just escaped.
Seeing this series of electric and flint-like fights, Lu Bing couldn't help but cried out secretly: "Okay!"
The middle-aged man let out a muffled scream, and the woman seemed to be frightened, forgetting to cry, Lu Bingming sharply discovered this.
The crowd onlookers seemed to be shocked by what happened just now, and then they reacted and cheered loudly for the strong man. The brawny man looked at the middle-aged man as if he had given up running away before he straightened up. He was a little embarrassed when he heard the cheers of the crowd, and he scratched his head and smirked.
At this time, there was a scream from the crowd: "Get out of the way! What are you doing around! Gather a crowd to make trouble!" A group of people in public uniforms squeezed in with the sound of the scolding.
Lu Bing looked up and saw that it was from the soldiers of the Five Cities and there were more than a dozen people. The leader was in his forties, dressed in the clothes of the deputy commander, with a beard and a face like the bottom of a pot, but Lu Bing knew him and his name was Guo Ming.
Lu Bing's family lived in Xicheng, and Guo Ming was one of the four deputy commanders of the Five City Soldiers, Ma Si Xicheng, and he was in charge of the workshop where Lu Bing lived, so he knew each other.
Guo Ming also came from a military veteran, and was an official post that he accumulated little by little with his military merits following the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Mr. Lin Fu. He is just and fair and has a good reputation.
Guo Ming also saw Lu Bing. Just about to say hello, when he saw Lu Bing lightly shook his head, he immediately understood. He pretended not to know Lu Bing, went straight to the strong man, and asked, "Why hit someone!"
The brawny man seemed to be at a loss when he saw the officials, and replied in a naive voice: "He, he steals and wants to run." After thinking about it, he touched the back of his head and said childishly: "He beat me first..."
At this moment, the woman saw that the officer was coming, and then started crying on the ground.
Guo Ming frowned and walked to the woman and said, "Okay, don't cry, your things have been stolen?" The woman wiped her tears and said, "Yes! Your lord! Your lord is going to be the master for the women! "
Guo Ming yelled impatiently: "Okay, don't cry!" Then Guo Ming pointed to the middle-aged man who was still moaning on the ground, chirping and groaning, "You admit it, this person is the one who stole your money." "
The woman got up, wiped her tears and nodded: "Yes! Your lord, it's him!"
Guo Ming said: "How much did he steal from you?"
The woman replied with weeping: "Twenty-three taels, my lord! Twenty-three taels! All of our savings were stolen by him! How can I live!"
Guo Ming asked again: "Is it a whole ingot?" The woman hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes, two twelve in one ingot, and some silver corners.
Guo Ming pointed to the middle-aged man and said to his opponent: "Search him to see if there is any." Several soldiers and horses' patrols stepped forward and lifted the middle-aged man lying on the ground. The middle-aged man struggled with pain and yelled, "I'm wronged! My lord! I didn't steal anything!"
Several patrols searched, except for a few broken pieces of silver, the twenty-three taels were really not found.
Guo Ming asked the man sharply: "Silver! Where did you put it?"
The man knelt on the ground and shouted: "Wrong! The villain really didn't steal her money! I just accidentally bumped her, and she yelled, and then I was caught by this stupid guy, where can I have time? Hidden silver!"
"This..." Guo Ming groaned as soon as he heard reasonable.
This is the woman who started crying again: "My lord, I really lost my silver! You have to be the master for the women!"
Guo Ming asked the woman again: "Is he sure that he stole your silver?"
The woman cried and said, "The local woman didn't know, but he was the only one who hit me on the road. I found out that he was missing. It wasn't who he was! This is all my family's savings, if I lose it. I can't live anymore!"
Guo Ming was very upset when she heard her crying, and stamped his feet: "Okay! Stop making trouble here. Since you can't find out for a while, just go with the official! When you get to the yamen, take your time to interrogate!"
After speaking, he motioned to the patrols to lock up the three of them and take them back for interrogation.
The middle-aged man and woman were very cooperative and pressed up, ready to take them home. But the brawny man was reluctant. Watching the patrol and trying to lock himself up, he reflexively made a fighting start.
When the patrol saw that he was so big, he was also frightened and did not dare to step forward.
Guo Ming walked over and shouted sharply: "Why, do you want to rebel!"
The brawny man bit his lip stubbornly and shook his head: "No, I can't go with you!"
Guo Ming drew out his sword and shouted, "I want to go to an official position after assaulting someone, do you really want to rebel!"
The brawny man just shook his head, and Guo Ming and others did not dare to actually go up and cut people, and the atmosphere became a stalemate for a while.
