Chapter 83 Yizi Camp
Sima Dong held a waist knife, and the first knife killed his brother who loved him the most.
When he swung the knife to cut other people, he didn't have much psychological burden.
One is killing, two, three, dozens are killing.
Uncle, uncle, grandfather, brother...
Anyway, they all have to die, and it doesn't matter who they die in.
When he walked in front of Sima Yi with a knife covered in blood, he was about to chop with the knife without any hesitation.
"Stop!"
Sima Dong stopped the knife in his hand and looked in the direction of the sound.
It turned out to be just a little beggar squeezed in the crowd.
"What's the matter, beggar?"
The county magistrate had just been called the upright master by the people of the city, and he wanted to maintain the image of the upright master.
At this time, he didn't get angry, thinking that a mere beggar would not make much waves.
The little beggar glanced back inadvertently, and did not see the figures of his companions, so he began to say:
"Your Excellency, the other members of the Sima family may have been corrupt, but this Sima Gongzi is very kind."
"He often gives alms to the hungry people in the city, and treats the poor people with less money, or even no money."
"I believe that many people present have received the favor of Sima Gongzi."
"I dare to ask the county magistrate to show some leniency and spare Sima Gongzi's life."
After being told by this beggar, many people also regained some reason from their previous anger.
Indeed, many of them had drunk the porridge given by Sima Gongzi, which helped them through the most difficult days.
Many people went to Huichuntang to see a doctor and buy medicine. The price was very fair. If the family was in difficulty, Sima Gongzi would also give medicine for free.
"Yes!"
"This Sima Gongzi is a good man!"
"Please show some mercy, Lord County Master."
"Please..."
Instantly, a large number of people in the square knelt down again.
This time, they were begging for mercy for their benefactors.
These ordinary people have little knowledge and are easily deceived, but they also have the most basic moral concepts and can distinguish between good and evil.
Sima Yi, who was tied to the pillar, opened his eyes and looked at the ordinary people who knelt down.
He used to be rich, and when he helped others, he never thought about asking for anything in return.
I didn't expect that one day, everyone would be begging for mercy for him.
I'm satisfied!
The county magistrate was still thinking about his words in his heart. He had to maintain the image of the upright and honest master that he had just established.
But he couldn't let him go for nothing.
I heard from the county lieutenant before that this person has good talent. If he keeps this person, there will be endless troubles.
"Humph!"
"You are all deceived by his hypocritical appearance!"
The person who spoke was not the county magistrate, but Sima Dong, who was covered in blood.
Everyone looked at Sima Dong in confusion.
Sima Dong's robe had long been stained with blood, his face was twisted and hideous, and the knife in his hand was dripping with blood.
"I just want to ask, where did he get the money and food for distributing porridge and medicine?"
"It was all taken from you, and now I give you a little favor, and you are moved."
"He used your money and food to squeeze out a little bit from his teeth to buy people's hearts and gain reputation."
"Hahaha..."
After Sima Dong said this, many people thought that it seemed to be true.
Almost got cheated again.
Sima Yi stared at this cousin who used to be well-behaved and cute.
Others didn't know, but everyone in the Sima family knew it.
The money and food he used to distribute porridge was all the money he earned from doing business with Er Gouzi and selling Da Li Wan.
When Sima Dong said this, he didn't wait for the county magistrate's order, and he had already raised his knife and was about to chop Sima Yi.
The little beggar who stood up before had already prepared for this move. The moment he turned around and raised his knife, he immediately rushed over and hugged Sima Dong tightly with both arms.
"Let go!"
"You bitch, let me go!"
The little beggar fought with brute force, and no matter how Sima Dong hit him, he would not let go.
Sima was unable to break free in a short time, so he raised the waist knife in his hand and stabbed it into the little beggar's body.
As the blood gushed out, the little beggar's hands and feet gradually softened.
"Fire!"
"Fire!"
At this moment, someone shouted, causing everyone to turn their heads to look.
Black smoke billowed from several houses in the distance and rose to the sky.
"Put out the fire!"
"Others, follow me to the city wall!"
The county magistrate roared and had already used the wind control technique to run towards the city wall.
If there is a fire in the city, the bandit army outside the city is likely to take advantage of the chaos to attack the city.
If they cooperate with the spies in the city, it will be even more troublesome.
Compared with the loss of the city, a wanted criminal seemed less important.
The county magistrate took away a large number of masters at one time, and the rest had to be busy putting out fires.
But Sima Dong did not intend to let go of this cousin who had a good relationship with him.
He even killed his own brother, and his whole family died under his knife. How could he leave this source of trouble?
When he drew out his waist knife and raised it again, he found that a large group of little beggars emerged around him.
These beggars were only a few years old, most of them were in their teens, and some were disabled with missing arms and legs.
These little beggars held sticks and knocked out two yamen runners, surrounded Sima Dong, and protected Sima Yi in the middle.
"You beggars, why don't you get out of here!"
Sima Dong raised his waist knife and chopped it down. One person was hit by the knife and fell to the ground, but no one retreated.
The other few people had already untied the ropes on Sima Yi with quick hands and feet.
As soon as Sima Yi's hands and feet were free, he picked up a wooden stick and smashed it on Sima Dong's head.
Although Sima Dong had practiced martial arts for a few more years, he was not able to sense the qi, so he was no match for Sima Yi.
In addition, he was already guilty, so he didn't dare to fight Sima Yi now, and turned around and fled into the county government office.
"Young master, let's run!"
Sima Yi took out the hemp core from his mouth, knelt down in front of the corpses, and kowtowed three times.
Then he followed the group of little beggars and left.
There were still many people who had not dispersed at the original place, and many of them had received Sima Yi's kindness.
At this time, they didn't want to embarrass him, so they all made way and let Sima Yi and the little beggars leave.
After a while, Sima Dong and several yamen runners chased out, but were blocked by a group of unruly people. They stumbled and walked, but could no longer find Sima Yi's figure.
Sima Yi and a group of little beggars had already walked into a small alley at this time.
"Thank you very much."
"You saved our lives, and we all died because of you."
These beggars were the ones who often stood guard at the entrance of Huichun Hall.
Among ordinary beggars, children would have a hard time surviving. They would be controlled by the big beggars, mutilated, and made into various disabilities, and become tools for begging and performing.
These little beggars were able to live in peace and security thanks to Sima Yi's protection.
"Did you also set the fire just now?"
"It was the plan of the scabby dog. Baldy and he set the fire together." A beggar answered.
"You are brave and resourceful."
Sima Yi praised him. He had already made plans to die, but he didn't expect to be saved by these little beggars.
"We started planning on the day the young master was arrested, and we also formed a "Yizi Camp".
We used this time to dig a small strip of land that led directly to the moat outside."
The little beggars took Sima Yi to a remote place, pushed aside a pile of garbage, and revealed a dark hole in the ground.
