Rebirth of the Four Seas Emperor

Liu Fu was imprisoned in a clean single cell, holding a big chicken drumstick and chewing it till it was delicious.

This was a special meal specially arranged for him by Zheng Chong, just to let the special envoy see the luxurious life.

It’s hard to sympathize with a person who can eat and drink in jail.

Zheng Chong's purpose was to cause Liu Fu's special treatment to arouse the resentment of the two special envoys.

But I didn't expect that my uncle was too impulsive and actually stabbed Liu Fu directly.

Until now, Zheng Chong thought that Bai Bo had lost his mind when he saw Bai Tao was seriously injured.

He knew very well that madman Bai Bo could do anything.

So when he made arrangements to rob the prison in advance, he didn't think that such a change would happen.

I already had a countermeasure in mind, so I wasn’t too panicked.

It's just that his previous arrangement to make Liu Fu resentful to the special envoy seemed to be a sign of guilty conscience.

It seems to be a kind of compensation for the disadvantage of protection,

The special envoy just took a look after getting out of the cell. Seeing that Liu Fu was indeed fine, he withdrew.

He just repeatedly told him to protect him no matter what.

Liu Fu didn't know anything about it, but he had a good appetite.

Although someone just came to rob the prison and used a knife to see red,

But he firmly believed that evil could never defeat good, so when facing the gangsters, he always showed a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance.

This really shocked the gangster. Of course, all this was his own feeling.

What he didn't know was that the Squid Gang member who was planning to kill him almost got so angry that he cursed his mother.

He scolded this idiot who didn't even know how to hide, and stretched his neck out to be hacked.

I have seen stupid people, but I have never seen anyone so stupid as to be so virtuous.

Fortunately, Yu Xiuer realized that something was wrong, and a jailer flew over in time to block Hou Fu.

The gang members quickly changed their chops to stabbings and stabbed the jailer.

I cursed in my heart: Now must be the most stupid time in my life...

Then Yu Xiuer issued a signal to retreat, and everyone dispersed in a hurry.

But on the way to retreat, one person bumped into the wall and fainted.

Didn't follow the retreat of others.

Seeing that Hou Fu was fine, everyone felt relieved.

Then he focused his attention on the pirate who had not escaped.

Zheng Chong ordered his men:

"Go and bring over the captured pirate. Which group of pirates are they so bold and dare to rob the county jail?"

The jailer took the order and escorted a man over in a short while. He had one eye and one hand.

When he saw this person's appearance clearly, Zheng Chong was so frightened that he didn't faint on the spot.

I never expected that the person who was caught turned out to be my brother-in-law Bai Tao. How was this possible?

Bai Bo has always protected his brother and sister, how could he leave Bai Tao here?

A pirate, or a pirate who had robbed a county prison, was caught. How could he still survive?

Zheng Chong's brain is no longer enough.

There were already many people in the crowd with extremely ugly faces.

Bai Tao is the head of the district and Zheng Chong's brother-in-law. There are many people in the county government who know him.

This case was originally a grudge between him and Hou Yao, Hou Fu and his son.

When he appeared, he was just asking for it. Do you still need to ask?

Bai Tao, who was stared at by the crowd, was in a state of complete confusion.

Everything was going smoothly just now. The gang sent ten good men to lead him into the cell.

I don't know who pushed him when he was retreating.

This caused him to hit the wall and fainted.

When he woke up, he found that he was tied up by the jailer. The three souls were scared out of his mind, but there was nothing he could do.

Until I saw Zheng Chong's face clearly, I couldn't help crying anymore:

"Brother-in-law, save me..."

In front of all the officers, Zheng Chong could not bend the law for personal gain and could only shout:

"Shut up, who is your brother-in-law? You are so bold that you dare to liaise with pirates and rob the county prison. Who gave you such courage?

This is a serious crime that can cause your head to fall off. "

The words actually hinted to Bai Tao that this was a capital crime and he must not plead guilty.

If he was in his right mind, Bai Tao would not be that stupid, but at this moment he was so frightened that everyone was stunned.

Immediately he subconsciously shouted:

"It was clearly agreed upon on Blackfish Island that Li Ergou would stay, but I don't know how he left me behind in the end..."

As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Zheng Chong was stunned, knowing in his heart that Bai Tao was finished, and he was going to be finished too, completely finished.

This is already a voluntary admission. He is really a group with those pirates, and there is no room for maneuver.

Ren Hongcai's face was ashen and he suddenly said angrily:

"Come here, Bai Tao is temporarily imprisoned for having an affair with the pirates of Heiyu Island. Zheng Chong is his brother-in-law and it is difficult to avoid suspicion. He took off his official uniform and was imprisoned.

In addition, there must be no mistake in releasing Liu Fu immediately. "

"Yes"

Several officers stepped forward to take the order and left.

Ren Hongcai turned to face the two special envoys and said with an apologetic expression:

"I'm really sorry for putting you two through such a hard journey. Now the truth is finally clear. Hou Yao's affair with the pirates was completely false.

This is all a trick of the Bai Tao thief calling to catch the thief. Please go back and tell Mr. Zhou that the lower official has already investigated clearly. "

"Now that the case is clear, there is no need for the two of us to run away anymore.

But it was getting late today, so we went back to the posthouse to rest, and set off back early tomorrow morning. "

"Well, it's still early in the morning, so I've prepared some entertainment programs..."

Not long after Ren Hongcai roared away with a large number of people, strong figures appeared outside the county jail again.

No one expected that the pirates would dare to go and come back again, and without any precautions, they would break into the county prison again.

At this time, Bai Tao was already heartbroken.

Now that I saw them coming back, I was overjoyed and shouted anxiously:

"Sister-in-law, military advisor, save me..., help me quickly..."

Hearing his cry for help, the pirates rescued him.

Zheng Chong also shouted anxiously:

"And me, take me with you."

But the pirates turned a deaf ear to his cries, and no one cared about him at all.

He could only watch helplessly as Bai Tao was rescued.

As for him who stayed, he could only wait for severe punishment from the law.

……

On a small black-tailed boat by the sea, Bai Tao had not yet recovered from the excitement of killing everyone during the prison robbery.

It was fun to brag and spank with the pirates, but slowly he felt something was wrong.

The direction of this ship seems not to be heading towards Heiyu Island.

He was a little scared, so he couldn't help but ask the pirate Li Ergou next to him:

"Brother Li, where are we going? Why do I feel like the direction is wrong?"

Li Ergou patted his shoulder grandly:

"What's wrong? Of course we have to go back to the island now."

Bai Tao said strangely:

"But I remember that Blackfish Island is not in this direction."

Li Ergou pretended to be surprised and said:

"Why go to Blackfish Island for no reason?"

Bai Tao looked surprised and said:

"Didn't you say you wanted to go back? If you go back, don't you mean going back to Blackfish Island?"

Li Ergou suddenly laughed wildly, and the other pirate gangs around him also laughed together.

The laughter was so earth-shattering that it made Bai Tao's heart tremble.

"You...why are you laughing? Is there something wrong with what I said?"

Bai Tao's confused expression made all the pirates laugh so hard that they almost couldn't stand upright.

After a long while, Li Ergou finally stopped laughing, patted Bai Tao on the shoulder and said:

"Bai Tao, Bai Tao, you are really teasing me to death. Who told you that our home is Heiyu Island?"

At this moment, Bai Tao finally felt that something seemed a little wrong.

He hurriedly ran to find the second master standing at the bow of the boat:

"Second... second master, they... what do they mean?"

Jiang Hong didn't dare to talk to Bai Tao at this time. He just looked at Li Ergou with a troubled face and said:

"Brother Li, you think this man is too confused. Should you remind him?"

Li Ergou laughed loudly:

"What's the point of reminding me? You'll know everything when you go back anyway.

This idiot is quite funny. Seeing how happy you are for us, I won't hit you.

Let's wait until the gang leader and the young master come back to decide what to do with you. "

Bai Tao looked at Jiang Hong in disbelief:

"Second Master, why are you so polite to this little guy?

If you're like this, my elder brother won't kill you if he finds out? "

Jiang Hong looked at him like an idiot, and then said coldly:

"Let's get your eldest brother back to life first.

Also, I am no longer the second-in-command of the Haima Gang. Don't scream, or I'll beat you up. "

After saying that, he left without looking back, leaving Bai Tao standing alone on the bow of the boat, letting the wind mess him up.

……

After Hou Yao learned that Liu Fu had been released, he took his mother home.

When they came, they each had a small baggage. When they returned, they hired three oxcarts to load everything.

One cart contains clothes and sundries bought by Zhou Yu, and the other cart contains medicinal materials bought by Hou Yao.

The reason for buying the medicinal materials was that Hou Fu must have suffered from being in prison for so long.

So I want to buy more medicinal materials to nourish myself, but in fact it’s just to deceive others.

What Hou Yao really needs is saltpeter and sulfur.

Gunpowder was a strictly controlled military secret in Daxia.

Saltpeter and sulfur are both the main raw materials for making gunpowder, and are also subject to strict supervision.

If purchased separately, it will quickly attract the attention of the ubiquitous Daxia secret guards.

In order to deceive others, we can only adopt this safer method.

However, this also caused Zhou Yu to be extremely dissatisfied.

Along the way, Zhou Yu complained about Hou Yao for wasting his money.

In addition, she was holding back a lot of grievances. She hadn't had enough fun yet.

How nice it is to live in an inn, with clothes on hand and food on hand, mouth open. Isn't it more comfortable than at home?

When I got home, I had to cook my own meals, and I had to face Liu Fu's confused and serious face.

Thinking about it makes me feel aggrieved. I can't count on that good-for-nothing husband in this life. Fortunately, my son is promising.

Otherwise I might starve to death for the rest of my life.

"Yao'er, thank you for not being as stupid as your father, otherwise our family would starve to death.

It's better to do business. You can make a lot of money, which is better than farming. "

Hou Yao could only laugh twice. In order to explain why he suddenly had so much money in the past two days, he

He lied and claimed that he earned the money from doing business with other people.

Scholars have the privilege of tax exemption, so there are often shrewd businessmen who put their properties under the name of scholars.

Every year, a little bit of profit will be given to the talented people.

However, for scholars, this tax-free privilege is not unlimited.

One person can only be exempted from two shops at most.

So some people are not satisfied with just a small share of profits, and they will ask for a share, that is, a shareholding in the business.

Hou Yao lied about buying shares in the company, and then deceived him about the source of the money.

"Mom, I just got a little bit of money and can share more of the profits.

Okay, don't let anything slip when you get home, otherwise dad will have to say something about me. "
