Li Chengzhao stood on the bridge and shouted towards the water of the river. His voice seemed to go upstream to the source of the river.
"It's so spectacular." His eyes were full of shock. He had seen descriptions of this river in books before, but when he saw it with his own eyes, he still felt it was extremely spectacular and felt heroic and majestic.
"No wonder my father wants to see it with his own eyes. If he didn't come and see it with his own eyes, how would he know that there is such a majestic scene in the world." Li Chengzhao murmured while looking at the rolling waves of the river.
He had already visited all the places in Guanzhong, so he decided to make a few trips to Hedong. If he used to visit people privately to confirm his father's words, now, he simply wants to get closer to the people. He
I found that since I was able to talk to people on the ground, what I learned was often more accurate than what was read in the book.
"Sir, it's too dangerous here, let's go down first." The guard advised from the side.
Another wave came and wet the trousers of Li Chengzhao and his entourage, and the water immediately spread from the soles of his feet to his brain.
"Hahaha." Li Chengzhao was not afraid, he said: "You are also experienced people. Are you afraid of this little wind and waves?"
"We are not afraid." The guard added in his heart, it is not because he is afraid that something might happen to you, our living ancestor.
Li Chengzhao stayed on the bridge for a long time, and then left under the persuasion of the guards. Everyone rode horses and wandered around Hedong slowly. Li Chengzhao was now experienced. He visited the people and would not go to the city, because there were many things to do there.
They are more beautiful than they say, but they are often full of problems, and they are covered up very well.
Go to the countryside and you will find the real problems there.
"Walk!"
Li Chengzhao waved his hand and led the guards straight to the countryside.
Whether the people are living well or not does not matter what other people say, only what they themselves have to say!
Huaili.
It was noon when the people returned from farming and gathered under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village to chat. Women from various families carried vegetable baskets and brought food.
"Last time I saw that boy from Dadun sneaking to Widow Zhao's house and not coming out for several hours. Tsk tsk, this Widow Zhao is in her thirties and looks like a wolf and a tiger!"
"If you ask me, there must be something going on between these two people."
"You don't have to say it, everyone can see it. But having said that, Dadun just looks like that. How can Widow Zhao get along with him?"
"Wang Laoer, do you also want to be happy with Widow Zhao?"
"Needless to say, it must be." Another person immediately concluded.
"It's not surprising. Widow Zhao's little figure is just different. It's okay for Mr. Wang to take a fancy to you. However, Mr. Wang, with your figure, I'm afraid I can't help but take advantage of Widow Zhao."
"Hahaha."
"Shut up." The man who called Wang Laoer was a short man. Hearing the villagers arrange him in this way, he suddenly became furious.
"What are you afraid of?"
"He's afraid of Mrs. Wang!" a young man said with a smile.
When everyone was laughing, someone suddenly ran over.
"It's not good, it's not good, it's not good!"
When the man approached, the eyes of everyone holding bowls and eating had already focused on him.
"What's wrong?" someone asked.
The man gasped and said, "Widow Zhao is dead!"
"ah?"
Everyone was shocked. How could he die so easily? He was just talking about this person.
"What's going on?"
"How did you die?"
"When did it happen?"
"Who did it?"
"Is it Zhao Dadun?"
The reporter said: "I don't know. You can go and see for yourself. But just now, the village chief caught a few outsiders. It was probably them who did it. You go and stop those people first, and I will report it to the official."
After saying that, he trotted out of the village again.
Everyone stopped eating and hurried to Widow Zhao’s house together.
West of the village.
A group of people surrounded several outsiders. There was a corpse lying on the ground. The face was covered with a cloth and the appearance could not be seen clearly. The village chief led the men from the village, holding hoes and sickles in their hands, and surrounded the outsiders.
The village chief's surname is also Zhao, and his name is Zhao De.
"You kill people and still want to run away, how brave you are!" Zhao De waved his sickle and shouted angrily: "The government officials are coming soon, you are dead."
Li Chengzhao and the guards looked at each other, very speechless. They just went to the village to ask for water, and they were going to talk to a few people about life and ideals. They never expected that they would be unlucky enough to step into this dead man's house.
Is it so unlucky?
Li Chengzhao smiled bitterly and shook his head, explaining: "This old man, we really didn't kill him."
"Do you think I will believe it?" Zhao De said coldly.
At this moment, people in the village gradually gathered around and completely trapped Li Chengzhao and others.
The guard whispered: "Sir, we can break through, they are no match for us." The guards who have experienced battles do not take the threat of force from these people at all.
"No." Li Chengzhao shook his head, "If we break through, then the people we killed will be killed by us. Just wait, we should be able to escape when the government officials come."
"What are you muttering about?" Zhao De yelled, "Are you trying to escape?"
Li Chengzhao explained: "Don't get me wrong, we will wait for the officials to come and clarify our innocence."
"You're quite particular about your words. Look at you, you have such a delicate skin and tender flesh, and you're an educated person. How could you do something worse than an animal? You're still not a human being!" Zhao De slapped him.
"I didn't kill the person." Li Chengzhao said.
"Fart, you are the one who killed me. I saw you walking out of Widow Zhao's house with my own eyes. There are so many of you, so you must have taken advantage of her. Widow Zhao refused to die, so you brutally killed her!" Zhao De concluded.
.
As soon as this statement came out, the villagers became furious.
"Everyone is gathered around, don't let anyone escape!"
Li Chengzhao frowned and bit his lip lightly, thinking that this matter might be a bit troublesome.
Because when he entered Widow Zhao's house, he did see her lying on the couch in disheveled clothes.
Zhao De added: "It seems that you are not very old, but unexpectedly you are a disaster. Today you are bumped into by me. If you are unlucky, I will definitely eliminate the disaster for you!"
"Presumptuous!" Li Chengzhao was furious and pointed at his nose, "You are such a brave dog, who gave you the courage to say such stupid things!"
Substitute?
Who is God?
Yeah, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is the heaven!
In anger, the aura that Li Chengzhao had cultivated since he was a child suddenly exploded, causing Zhao De to take half a step back in fear.
At this moment, government officials hurriedly arrived.
"They are murderers!" When Zhao De saw the guards arriving, as if he had found a safe haven, he immediately jumped behind these people and pointed at Li Chengzhao and said.
The officer looked at the guard with the knife and the plainly dressed Li Chengzhao, and asked, "Did you kill Widow Zhao?"
"No." Li Chengzhao replied.
"It's them." Zhao De said.
The officer glared at him and said, "Shut up, the government is handling the case. When will it be your turn to talk too much? I didn't ask you, so don't talk."
Zhao De shrank his head.
The officer asked the people around him again, "Which of you saw these people killing people?"
The surrounding villagers looked at each other, but no one stood up. Only one person said: "The village chief saw it."
The officer looked at Zhao De and asked, "Did you see it?"
Zhao De hesitated slightly, then nodded, "Yes, I saw it."
"Okay, take them, Zhao De, and this body away!" the officer ordered.
The guards guarded Li Chengzhao and blocked the officers.
"You want to arrest me?" the officer asked.
Li Chengzhao shook his head, took a breath, and said, "I'll just go with you. Just give your things to them."
"Yes." The guard looked at the guards coldly, threw the knife to them, and followed them to the county government office.
