Chapter 249
The players went back to their homes. Ji Qiang stumbled away in the carriage, and Bei Qiao also set out on the road back to the inn.
Too many things happened today, and even the energetic her felt exhausted. When she was dealing with the lecher on the road, she accidentally lost her focus and hit him too hard, twisting him and making him cry: "Ahhh, my hand is going to break!"
Oh… Bei Qiao subconsciously loosened his grip and pushed it to the side. Lecher screamed and flew backwards several meters. When he fell to the ground, his face turned pale with pain: "Murder! My hand is broken… Ouch!"
Bei Qiao: "..." Why is the lecher's voice louder than the victim's? Why are there so many hooligans tonight? Is it because the crime of flower picking might be enforced later? Are they just trying to survive tonight?
"Hurry, hurry, there's another one!" Li Zhi, who heard the noise nearby, excitedly pulled Li Huaiyu over. Seeing that Lecher had been dealt with, he stopped on the spot with regret and greeted Bei Qiao: "Miss, we meet again."
"What are you two doing?"
"Oh, he's participating in the Qingdeng event. Do you want to try it?" Li Zhi stretched his neck and looked around: "Is this the only one? There is no gang?" What a waste!
"Green lantern?" Bei Qiao looked at the big green lantern hanging under the eaves of someone's house on the street: What does it mean?
"It's not that green lamp, it's the qing for cleaning up, and the deng for lechers." Li Zhi raised the small wooden sign in his hand and shook it. "The constables are counting outside the alley. Go get a number plate from them, and when you send the lechers there, tell them your number. They will add it up for you, and you can exchange it for a lot of good things when you add it up... Oh, go and have a look! It's worth it! Even if it's just one lecher, you can at least exchange it for an egg! It would be a shame not to take it!"
"What? What do you think I am?" Lecher covered his arm and struggled to get up from the ground, his eyes wide open: Sijin County is a sick place!
Sijin County: Who is sick? He got up but didn't even know how to escape.
"this……"
"In addition to raw eggs, there are also tea eggs! Oh, I won't tell you anymore. I just found four and haven't filled the second batch yet." Li Zhi hurriedly threw down a sentence and ran away with Li Huaiyu, completely forgetting that he had thought about introducing Bei Qiao to his daughter.
"Hey! I'm talking! Can you hear me?"
"Oh." Bei Qiao watched Li Zhi and her daughter leave without turning his head. He raised his hand and made a knife move. The world finally became quiet.
Although she was quite interested in this activity, Bei Qiao didn't really want to stay up late, so she planned to drag this scoundrel to the constable and make a quick end of it. However...
"Two of these lechers. Miss, are you planning on exchanging them for eggs straight away, or adding them up and trading them for something else later?" The constable counting behind the table glanced up at Bei Qiao as she approached him, then pouted, motioning for her to look at the exchange form. Behind her, several constables, aided by the natives, were escorting the lechers onto a prison van. As Bei Qiao approached, she saw a packed van leaving.
Just as I walked out of the alley, I ran into another scoundrel named Bei Qiao: he was so outrageous that I wanted to take a picture and post it on WeChat Moments.
"No accumulation, just change it directly." Bei Qiao retracted his gaze and yawned expressionlessly.
Seeing Bei Qiao was a stranger, the constable quickly tossed two tea eggs to him and called for his colleagues to help drag the group away. The area was bustling with activity. Several scoundrels, still tied up and not yet taken away, lay on the ground, cursing and swearing. The constable was too busy to bother with them, so he got annoyed and kicked them for a moment of peace. The natives waiting in line for registration nearby were displeased by what they heard and immediately started arguing with the scoundrels.
Lecher: "I just touched her! I didn't do anything to her!"
Native A: "I only hit you with a stick, aren't you still breathing?"
Lecher: "I was just saying it! I didn't mean any harm! She's just overthinking it!"
Native B: "I just invited you to the county government office as a guest. I mean no harm. You're just too nervous."
Lecher: "You are so strong, no man will like you!"
Native C: "Oh my, you must be very popular with men, right? Pick one of them and marry him!"
Dengtuzi: "Why are you cursing?"
Native Ding: "No way, isn't this blessing you with the words you said before? You are so ungrateful."
While the natives were arguing with the lechers, the county magistrates were busy rounding up the detainees. Because there were so many people sent in, and the jail wasn't big enough, the county lieutenant had crammed a dozen or so lechers together, leaving each with only enough space for their buttocks to maneuver, so any movement could easily lead to a collision.
"Boss, the ghosts over there started screaming again."
"Seeing ghosts again? Ignore them. Even if it's true, they deserve it!" Unlike those scoundrels tonight, each of these people Ji Qiang sent here has a life on their hands. It's just a ghost. Even if someone broke into the prison at night to assassinate them, then... they still need to be dealt with. After all, some guys haven't yet vomited out everything they need to.
The suona player who applied to the county government in advance to pretend to be a ghost and scare people said: "Give me back my life~"
The murderer, frightened out of his wits, shouted: "Sir, help me! There really is a ghost!"
The jailer who was watching the show said: "Get out! If you make any more noise, I'll whip you!" How could I not know whether there was such a thing? Hey!
The county government's public arrest of lechers finally scared off those lechers who wanted to go crazy before the crime of flower picking was implemented. Before Bei Qiao returned to the inn, these people gradually disappeared, and the guys who didn't have time to take action all gave in and hid in the house, considering whether to move to another place to live or grit their teeth and start a new life.
"I thought these people were so tough, tut tut... Call it a day! Go home... Oh my god! What a thing!" The constable who had exchanged things for the last local citizen stood up and stretched. When he turned around, he was almost scared by the people behind him: "Are you resorting to lynching? Didn't you say you can't do it on your own?" You can persuade the people verbally if they want to take action, but if you do it yourself, you will go against your salary!
"No one did anything. It was like this when he came..."
"It's good that no one did anything. How could a person walking on the road end up like this... Is there really no one who did anything?" It's no wonder that the constable was suspicious, because the man in front of him was really seriously injured.
"Really not. He was just unlucky. He was hit by a carriage when he was trying to tease the girl." Another constable found a stretcher and lifted the scoundrel up: "He has been treated. He won't die." Of course, it was not a miracle cure, it was just something to keep him alive temporarily. If this man had paid for a doctor out of his own pocket, that would be another matter. The county government would not reimburse his medical expenses anyway.
"Oh, I won't die, then it's okay. Let's go!" It's time to finish work and go home!
In an alley three blocks away, Ji Qiang said goodbye to the little native girl, looked back at the carriage with only three wheels left, and sighed: "I told you I'm very unlucky now." It was expected that the carriage wheel would fly out, but it was unexpected that it hit the lecher. It can only be said that there will be punishment for being a wicked person, and even God can't stand it.
"Don't worry, it's just a wheel that flew out, it's not a big deal." Shopkeeper Mei pushed back Ji Qiang who was about to use her Qinggong to fly back. "It's because of your bad luck that I can't let you go back alone."
"Sister Mei..."
"No need to say anything sentimental!"
"I'm not being sentimental, it's just that another wheel is about to fall off!"
"Wow!" Fortunately, I didn't take a carriage back with Xiaochengzi. This carriage probably wouldn't be able to make it back.
Other players taking the other route also encountered the occasional Lecher, but without an insider like Li Zhi to share their experiences, they simply beat the men to the ground, tossed them to the patrolling constables, and then left. They had no idea they could trade Lechers for eggs, and even if they did, it wouldn't be convenient for them, so they probably wouldn't bother to deliver them.
When Bei Qiao returned to the inn, the lobby was deserted; most had gone off to catch the lecher and hadn't returned yet. The staff seemed more relaxed, some even dozing off quietly behind pillars. The remaining staff sat behind the front desk, chatting until Bei Qiao passed by and went upstairs, only to stop and say hello.
"Did anyone really get half a pound in exchange?"
"Ah, but I heard there's a wanted man mixed in there, so there are so many."
"What? He's already on the wanted list, and he's only worth half a pound?"
"What's so strange about that? Don't we have some over there? The kind worth less than a cup of milk tea."
“Yell…”
When Bei Qiao returned to the room and logged off, Qiao Lin had already fallen asleep. The indicator light on the mobile phone on the table was still flashing. When he opened it, he found that it was a big red envelope sent by Qiao Lin.
Looks like I really earned Mom a lot of face today… Bei Qiao clicked to receive it, then opened the tax payment app to confirm. "I don't fully understand it, but the big data tells me the situation is good, so that's fine." Speaking of which, I originally entered this otherworldly world to explore and find rare finds to exchange for cash at the bank. How come, after just a few months, it's become a relaxing farming style?
Li Qingqing: Guess who's carrying the heavy load? Who would believe it? I was just trying to earn some money as a part-time worker, not trying to be a powerful woman.
It was already late, and Bei Qiao didn't think too much about it. She made one last check to see if there were any unread messages, and prepared to wash up and go to bed. Tang Yuan, who was sleeping in the living room, heard the noise, stood up drowsily, rubbed her, and then crawled back to his nest to continue sleeping, meowing, and no one knew what he was saying in his dreams.
Tangyuan: Meow? Is your owner out hunting again? You're not as lucky as me, meow! My owner rarely goes out, meow! He doesn't need to go hunting, meow... No matter how envious you are, don't be greedy for my owner! You want to fight, meow!
"What kind of dream were you having? I fell out of the nest and didn't even wake up." Bei Qiao, who was about to go back to the house, picked up the rolled glutinous rice balls, put them back in the nest and covered them with a small quilt.
