It was too strange that he could actually predict that the boatman would suffer a bloody disaster today. Li Le began to doubt that his fortune-telling skills were not working again.
How could he have the nerve to speak up?
Should I tell the boatman that you are in danger of bloodshed today?
This is purely asking for a beating. The boatman didn't suffer any bloody disaster, but he did.
Li Le couldn't help but glance sideways at Gao Mingli who was standing beside him.
My good disciple, why don't you bring a few more coins with you to help me out of my urgent need?
Now, I am in a dilemma. It is not right to say anything, nor is it right to not say anything.
"Master, is there anything wrong?" The boatman couldn't help asking when he saw that Li Le hadn't spoken for a long time.
Under that pair of eyes, he felt that everything about him was exposed, which made the boatman panic and wanted to escape, but he gave up.
The boatman glanced at Li Lezhi secretly, and then met those eyes. He was frightened and immediately lowered his head to look at his toes, not daring to look at Li Lezhi.
Li Lezhi didn't know what the boatman was thinking yet. He looked at the boatman's face and felt very conflicted. He said that the boatman would suffer a bloody disaster today, but not only did the boatman not believe it, he didn't believe it either.
No one would be beaten suddenly in front of him.
This is too outrageous.
There are many outrageous things in the world, but Li Le just doesn't believe there is such a coincidence. Since just telling this story won't convince people, he has to do some more calculations.
Let’s figure out what’s going on.
Everything was fine, why did the boatman suffer such a bloody disaster today?
This is a calculation. www.jiangnanxs.com Jiangnan Literature Network
Li Le just discovered something incredible. He frowned and looked at the boatman with a look of scrutiny in his eyes.
The boatman wore a straw raincoat on his head and a straw raincoat on his body. The material he wore was patched and tattered, and he had a pair of straw sandals on his feet. But such a man actually sold his wife and daughter. He is simply a scum.
Li Le was afraid that he had made a mistake. After all, it was not the first time that he had made mistakes.
To verify, Li Lezhi showed no disgust on his face. His voice was very soft, so that no one could sense any emotion. He asked, "A year ago, you entered the gambling house and became addicted to gambling. You owed the casino a lot of money."
The boatman was startled, and looked at Li Lezhi in surprise with his numb and weathered eyes. The uneasiness in his heart was spreading little by little, and he stroked the clothes on his body with his fingers.
Very nervous.
He suppressed the panic in his heart, raised his hand to hold down the straw raincoat he was wearing to hide the expression on his face, for fear that Li Le would notice that something was wrong with him.
"Why do you say that, Taoist priest? I am penniless, how can I have the courage to enter a casino?" the boatman said in a hoarse voice. He did not dare to look up when he said this, and his eyes were wandering.
Taking advantage of the fact that Li Le could not see the expression on his face, he said in a low voice: "Master, you want to cross the river, so you'd better get on the boat as soon as possible. It's getting late. When it gets dark, it will be unsafe to take the boat."
Gao Mingli glanced at the boatman, then at Li Lezhi, and saw that Li Lezhi didn't say anything, staring at the boatman with a faint look. When the boatman said that, his slightly bent back became even more hunched.
Even Gao Mingli sensed something strange.
His master had never made a mistake in fortune-telling, but the boatman avoided talking about it and urged them to set off.
There must be a ghost.
According to what is written in the storybook, could it be that the boatman wanted to kill people for money?
He urged them to get on the boat. Fortunately, they were in the middle of the river and were pushed off the boat. The more Gao Mingli thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. He looked at the boatman with an unfriendly look.
His gaze was like a dagger that could pierce through the boatman's body. Gao Mingli tightly grasped the sword that he had always kept with him and said fiercely, "Hey, you really don't know what's good for you. You asked my master to calculate for you, so why are you backing out? Don't count it. Don't be guilty. I think you must have owed money to the casino, so the casino's people came to your door. If you don't pay the money you owe to the casino, you will definitely be beaten up by the casino's thugs."
"My master has made it very clear to you. The black spot on your forehead and the bloody disaster are all caused by the money you owe to the casino."
After Gao Mingli finished speaking, he became more certain.
If he didn't owe money to the casino, why would the boatman not want to settle the bill as soon as he heard the word "gambling"?
He was afraid that his master would strip him of his underwear. "How much money can you make in a day? You spend it all in the casino. Is that a place for someone like you to go?"
The boatman suddenly looked up at Gao Mingli, a fierce look flashing across his eyes. Only when he saw the fabric of Gao Mingli's clothes and the sword in his hand did he suppress the violence in his heart.
“Why can’t someone like me go…”
It's just some fun, what's the big deal? The boatman spoke in a low voice, so low that if you didn't get close to his mouth, you wouldn't be able to hear what he said.
He didn't dare to offend Gao Mingli, so naturally he didn't dare to refute loudly.
Li Le didn't stop Gao Mingli's rudeness. He watched the boatman's change, and when he loosened his clenched fist, he continued, "Because you owed the casino ten taels of silver, the casino came to your door, you didn't have the money to pay, and the casino wanted to cut off one of your hands, so you sold your daughter to a prostitute in exchange for ten taels of silver."
Gao Mingli opened his mouth in surprise.
Before he could scold the boatman, he heard Li Le said, "From then on, you tasted the sweetness of selling your daughters. You originally had three daughters, but later you couldn't help but go to the casino to gamble again, and lost a few taels of silver again. This time, you sold your two daughters together. You sold the older one to the old man as a concubine and took 20 taels of silver, and the younger one was still sold to a prostitute and took 10 taels of silver. You took the money and went to the casino to gamble. This time you made a lot of money from the casino. You started with a few dozen coins and got a few taels of silver. Later, together with the gambling money you got, a total of 50 taels of silver, all went into the casino."
"Enough," the boatman shouted angrily, interrupting Li Lezhi's words.
Gradually, his breathing became heavy, and his pair of bloodshot eyes looked at Li Lezhi. He clenched his fists at his sides, wishing he could punch those eyes that could see through everything about him, blinding them so that they would not know anything.
He was filled with malice, but he didn't dare to punch or offend the two people in front of him.
The boatman swallowed his anger and could do nothing about the two men.
He glared at the two men fiercely, and in order to avoid being involved in other matters, he immediately drove them away and said, "This is my family matter, and has nothing to do with you two. Go away, don't block my business. I don't need you anymore, and I won't take you across the river. Go find someone else."
Don't bother him.
He is like this...
Gao Mingli is a man who hates evil, is chivalrous and has a youthful heart.
He had never seen such a scum in front of him. Without even saying hello, he kicked the boatman, rushed over, sat on the boatman, and punched him twice without mercy.
After two punches, the boatman wailed in pain, with blood hanging from the corner of his mouth.
He couldn't utter a word, only wailing.
Seeing this, Li Le tried to prevent Gao Mingli from accidentally killing someone, so he immediately stopped him and said, "Mingli, wait."
Gao Mingli stood up, turned around, looked at Li Le's hand that was only holding his shoulder, frowned and said in confusion: "Master, this kind of scum should be beaten to vent his anger, it's a waste for him to live in this world."
"How can you decide right and wrong?" Li Le just pulled Gao Mingli over and pulled him towards him.
“Then…” Gao Mingli was anxious. If he didn’t beat him up, would he just let this person live in the world without any retribution?
Although selling a daughter does not violate the law, anyone who sees such a person should spit on him.
"His affairs should be decided by County Magistrate Hu," Li Le said calmly.
The wailing boatman suddenly stopped and looked at Li Lezhi in shock, with panic in his eyes. He climbed up from the ground on all fours, trying to stay away from the two men.
Before he could run far, Gao Mingli kicked him to the ground and stepped hard on his back, with the whole weight of his body falling on the boatman.
"Master," when Gao Mingli saw that the boatman wanted to escape, he knew that this matter was not simple and it also involved Magistrate Hu. He needed to go to see the official only if he violated the law.
Otherwise, the genuine relatives can come forward to handle some matters.
"Tie him up and bring him before Magistrate Hu," Li Le searched for a long time before finally finding a hemp rope on the boat. He threw it to Gao Mingli, and the two of them worked together to subdue the boatman and tied him up.
The boatman was lying on the ground, with no way to escape.
He screamed at the top of his lungs: "What are you going to do?"
The boatman looked at the sparkling river surface with fear, fearing that the two men would throw him into the water to destroy his body.
She was filled with resentment and unwillingness, and angrily said, "Let me go. I just sold my own girl. What does it have to do with you? If you do this, I will go to the county magistrate and sue you for beating people without reason."
The boatman didn't believe that someone could calculate to that extent. He just couldn't stand him selling a few girls in exchange for some silver. Besides, besides him, it was common for people who couldn't make a living to sell their children, and the dynasty didn't prohibit it.
If he sells his daughter to someone else as a concubine, she can still live a life of luxury and not have to live a hard life with him. Isn't this a great thing for his daughter?
As for the other two girls, they were too young to be sold to brothels, but the madam would still raise them with good food and drink to prevent them from starving to death with him. He was clearly doing a good thing, because it was their fault that they would not be reincarnated into his family. If it was a son, he would not sell his daughters and would definitely raise the son with good food and drink.
It’s all that damn woman’s fault. She can’t even give birth to a son.
Li Le saw that he would not give up until he reached the Yellow River, and said coldly: "You should be thankful that you only sold your wife and daughter, and did not commit any other crime."
Li Lezhi was too lazy to even look at this scumbag. Compared to another thing he had calculated, Li Lezhi didn't know whether it was true or not. He could only tie the man up and send him to Magistrate Hu.
There was never a moment when Li Le hoped that what he calculated was true.
The boatman's eyes wandered for a moment, and he said with his neck stiffened: "Let me go quickly."
Gao Mingli grabbed the rope tightly to prevent the boatman from escaping. According to his master, this man not only sold his wife and daughter, but also committed other crimes? He didn't know what it was, and he needed to see Magistrate Hu.
Gao Mingli thought about everything he could think of, but he had no clue.
The quarrel between the three also attracted bystanders to stop and watch, and they saw the boatman being tied up.
People who didn't understand what was going on shouted, "Why are you kidnapping people in broad daylight? Is there any law? Why don't you release him?"
"That's right, if there's any misunderstanding, just clarify it. Why tie someone up?"
"Look at the good clothes they are wearing. They look like they are from wealthy families. Don't tell me that I angered them and got beaten up," the man muttered quietly, "I don't think they are good people either."
"Isn't this Gao Dazhuang? Is he in trouble again? These two guys don't look like thugs in the casino. When did such handsome guys get into the casino?" Another person who knew Gao Dazhuang muttered in a low voice. He was about to leave, but when he saw this scene, he went back and pulled his wife over to watch the fun.
Seeing the two men taking Gao Dazhuang to the direction of the county government office, the man whispered to his wife, "I don't know what Gao Dazhuang has done wrong to be sent to see the officials."
"What good can come of this? A man like him should meet the county magistrate and let him punish him."
Although the law does not prohibit selling wives and daughters, the fact is that it is not a year of natural disasters and people cannot survive and have to trade their children for food. As long as they are not starving to death, they will not sell their own flesh and blood and wives.
Only someone as heartless as Gao Dazhuang could do such a thing.
A good family was destroyed just because of gambling in the casino.
The man sighed and shook his head.
After Li Le brought the person to the yamen, everyone in the yamen knew him.
As soon as he saw him coming, he asked, "Master Li, why are you here?"
"I'm here to report to the authorities. This man has killed someone."
