The evil forces roaming the heavens

Chapter 1220 Zhang Cheng: "How much are thirteen lives worth?"

On the busy streets, beggars are hiding under the eaves.
With pleading eyes, he looked at the passers-by in gorgeous clothes.
But just as they were holding the broken bowl, a young man in green appeared beside them.
He had his hair tied up and a hairpin in it, looking very heroic, as if he didn't look like a down-and-out man at all!

"What are you looking at? Have you ever seen a beggar?"

Looking at the child who was looking at him strangely, Zhang Cheng snatched the bowl away and placed it in front of himself.
The beggar, who was no more than eight years old, was stunned at the sight.

"Sir, that's mine!"

Pointing at Zhang Cheng's broken bowl, the beggar immediately spoke up.
"I know, I'll borrow it from you!"

Addressing the beggar, Zhang Cheng asked, "Can you fill your stomach today?"

"cannot!"

Shaking his head, the beggar immediately showed a look of embarrassment.

After hearing his words, Zhang Cheng said calmly, "That's true. How can you still have enough to eat after becoming a beggar? By the way, who are you hanging out with?"

"We are from the West City Dog Third Master's side!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, the beggar hurriedly explained,

"How many people does Master Gou San have?"

Looking at the beggar with curiosity, Zhang Cheng smiled.

Just when the beggar was about to speak, he saw a few sturdy men approaching from a distance and said, "Young Master, have you been possessed by a ghost? Come and act wild here!"

The beggar looked at Zhang Cheng fiercely. Seeing the sturdy man appear, he immediately became scared.
Standing up, Zhang Cheng held the broken bowl in his hand and said, "You blind man, I'm just squatting here playing, and you dare to come and cause trouble for me?"

Zhang Cheng couldn't help but scold him when he spoke in a domineering manner.
In Jinling, it has always been his four major families that bully outsiders. Who would dare to bully them?

Jia is not false. The hall is made of white jade and the horses are made of gold. The Afang Palace, which is three hundred miles long, cannot accommodate a single historian from Jinling.

The East Sea lacks a white jade bed, so the Dragon King comes to invite the King of Jinling. There will be heavy snow in a good year, and pearls are as common as dirt and gold as common as iron.

And their names are the Jiangnan Protectorate, Jia, Shi, Wang, and Xue!

"you?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng angrily, the villain next to him immediately pulled his hand away, intending to hit him twice to wake Zhang Cheng up.
But before he could make a move, the leader immediately asked, "Excuse me, who are you from?"

"My surname is Jia!"

Looking at the man coldly, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

When they suddenly heard Zhang Cheng's name, fear immediately appeared on the faces of the villains.
Because in Jinling, you may not know who the prefect is, but you absolutely must know the Jia family and the other four clans!
"Excuse me, sir. We thought you were bullying this beggar!"

After bowing his hands and apologizing, the bad guy immediately became obedient.

Hearing his words, Zhang Cheng's eyes showed disdain and he said, "I heard that you are in charge of the beggars in West City?"

"Sir, you are joking. We are not kidnappers. How could we do such a thing?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, the villain immediately showed a trace of embarrassment.
Because you can't admit this kind of thing. Once you dare to admit it, people will kill you!

The laws in ancient times were more severe than those in modern times. Once a kidnapper was caught, he would definitely not survive!

Taking the Ming Dynasty as an example, the common punishment was 100 strokes of the cane and three years of imprisonment!
The "tu" here refers to those who are exiled to the frontier to join the army!
Don’t think that three years is a short time. You have to know that in ancient times, if you were sentenced to serve in the frontier as a soldier, it meant that you had one foot in the grave!

As for the more serious mutilation, I'm sorry,
The principal offender was executed by slow slicing, his property was compensated to the victim's family, and the accomplices were beheaded.

Anyone who knows the compassionate Xiao Zizai knows that he is good at being a sheep!

But lingchi is even more cruel than lamb ribs!
Because the prisoner is not allowed to die before 3,600 knives!
When talking about the method of lingchi, we have to mention Mr. Lu next door, because he is a professional in this field. After all, he learned this just to prepare for the Xianbei Murong clan!
"Then it seems that you are taking care of these children!"

Looking at the villain with a smile on his face, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

When Zhang Cheng saw a beggar on the roadside, he had already found his "predestined partner", because the fight against kidnapping should be carried out at all times.
You were eating hotpot and singing a song, and when you turned around, your child was gone. Would you be angry?

"Sir, how about I host a banquet and invite you to join in the fun?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with a smile on his face, the villain immediately spoke,
"Oh, is there such a good thing?"

Looking at the villain in surprise, Zhang Cheng was immediately surprised.
"Sir, you are willing to go because you are giving me face!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with a smile on his face, the villain immediately became happy.

Half an hour later, in a small independent courtyard somewhere in the west of the city,

The hot pot is boiling on the table.

When he came forward, Mr. Gou Sanye laughed and said, "Mr. Jia, it is a great honor to have you visit my humble home!"

Looking at the young man in front of him, Gou Sanye couldn't help but raise his hand to salute

"No, no, it's my honor to be invited to the banquet today!"

Looking at Mr. Dog in front of him, Zhang Cheng smiled.

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Gou Sanye's heart began to beat fast.
Because when the villain reported to him before, he still looked unconvinced, because how could the young master of the Jia family be related to them?

Mr. Gou Sanye: I can’t be sure it is, but I can’t be sure it isn’t either. After all, if we become enemies, then it will be the end of my life in Jinling, right?

"Please, Master Jia!"

He stretched out his hand to signal, and Dog Third Master immediately smiled.

As the two sat on the chairs, many people watched from a distance.
Looking at the distance in confusion, one person asked suspiciously: "Fourth Master, why is Big Brother so respectful!"

Along with the curious questions, many people began to doubt.
"In Jinling, you offended someone with the surname Jia? You're going to die!"

When he spoke to the people around him, the fourth master looked helpless.
They did know a lot of people working in the government, but in Jinling, there was no one above the Jia family!

Holding the chopsticks, Zhang Cheng stuffed a piece of mutton into his mouth and said, "Master Gou San, I want to ask you something!"

"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it. Sir, just speak up, I will tell you everything I know!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in front of him, Gou Sanye quickly refused when he heard his name.

"I want to ask you, how much are thirteen lives worth?"

Looking at Mr. Dog with a smile on his face, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but squint his eyes.

Hearing these words suddenly, Mr. Gou Sanye was stunned, because there were exactly thirteen people in their room?

"Sir, what are you doing?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng suspiciously, Gou Sanye was still a little unsure.

Holding his chin with one hand, Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "You have torn people apart, yet you dare to sit here and eat and drink. Aren't you afraid of God's punishment?"

Slamming the table, Gou Sanye stared at Zhang Cheng and said, "You little bastard, are you trying to threaten me? I respect you and call you Master Jia, but I won't acknowledge you and will make you go to the ground right now!"

Looking at the Third Master Gou in front of him, Zhang Cheng said with a joking smile: "One thousand three hundred taels, what do you think?"

"I don't think so. Either you get out of here, or I'll let you know what regret is!"

Pulling out the sharp blade from his waist, Gou Sanye immediately stared at Zhang Cheng, his eyes filled with cold light.
Originally, Gou Sanye wanted to make friends with the Jia family, but now it seems that this kid doesn't know his place!
"Is it difficult? If it's difficult, then don't do it!"

Zhang Cheng suddenly lifted the table and poured the scorching hot pot on Gou Sanye, then grabbed the chopsticks and stabbed his neck.
