Chapter 98: The Poor Man - Yang Zhi
After passing the first underground floor, the second underground floor is where the martial arts heroes are imprisoned.
Since ancient times, knights have used their martial arts to break the law, and the imperial court has always had a great difficulty in managing these heroes. When they start to act bravely, you can't control them at all. By the time you react, they have already run away.
The hero doesn't care whether you are the son of an official or a rich man. If you dare to tease a beautiful woman in the street, he will break your legs without hesitation, and then turn into a wisp of wind between heaven and earth and disappear without a trace.
A general amnesty had just been declared not long ago, and the entire second floor was empty. Only in a corner, sitting against the wall was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a numb expression and a large blue mark on his face.
"Yang Zhi, is that you, Yang Zhi?" Hu Yanzhuo and Guan Sheng from the team suddenly spoke in unison, "Didn't you return to your hometown in Shanxi? How did you get arrested and thrown into the Ministry of Justice's prison?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Yang Zhi's spirits suddenly lifted. He looked in the direction of the voice and stared blankly at the two people in front of him who were so majestic and respectful. "Brother Huyan? Second Brother Guan? Is that you? It's so great to see you."
Yang Zhi looked around at the people wearing eunuch uniforms and imperial official uniforms and asked, "Have you all joined the court?"
"It's a long story. We came to Bianjing with Master Zhu Xiaosun to support the king. Thanks to His Majesty's trust, we became servants in the Bianjing Palace and now live a comfortable life. But you, how did you end up in jail again?"
"Hmm!..." The word "again" was used well. Yang Zhi felt very sad. He might have offended the King of Hell, so he had been hovering on the edge of death.
"Tell me, if you haven't done anything against the will of heaven, I will let you go and serve as a tribute in the palace like them."
"Is this His Majesty the Emperor?" I cannot be used by just anyone, Yang Zhi looked at Zhao Huan.
"Hurry up and tell me, it's your blessing to meet His Majesty today." Hu Yanzhuo and Guan Sheng spoke up one after another, fearing that this unlucky guy would lose the opportunity.
Yang Zhi explained his ancestors for eighteen generations in detail as if he was pouring beans.
"Let him out. It makes me sad to hear it."
It turns out that Yang Zhi, a native of Taiyuan, Shanxi, is from a famous family. It is said that he is the grandson of the famous general Yang Jiye. The Yang family has produced many loyal and righteous people. When they passed the precious sword to Yang Zhi, they also integrated the ambition to serve the country into Yang Zhi's blood.
This kid must be cursed and so unlucky.
After entering the officialdom, he first served as a guard beside Gao Qiu. Because he was not good at speaking and did not know how to give gifts, he offended Gao Qiu and was then exiled to Daming Prefecture.
Yang Zhi and others went together to deliver the birthday gift, which was Taihu stone, to Song Huizong. There were more than ten people each driving a boat, and they all arrived safely. Only Yang Zhi was unlucky and fell into the ditch.
The birthday gift was destroyed, which was a serious crime punishable by death. No one wanted to wait for death there, so Yang Zhi fled for fear of punishment.
It is not a good idea to abscond for fear of punishment. You will be like an illegal resident and can only wander around.
Yang Zhi sold all his land and houses for 6,000 taels of silver and went to Gao Qiu to settle the matter.
Gao Qiu is also a piece of shit. How can a man who even betrayed his own son really help you settle the matter?
Damn Gao Qiu, he took the money but didn't do anything. He ate everything he had, slurped his mouth, and walked away, leaving Yang Zhi all alone and disheveled.
With no money in his pocket, Yang Zhi couldn't even afford to eat, so he thought of selling his ancestral sword to get some money.
However, Yang Zhi never expected that he would run into the most famous ruffian Niu Er under the overpass, who insisted that Yang Zhi demonstrate to him how to kill people without getting bloodshed.
This was the first time Yang Zhi had heard of such a humble request, so he simply stabbed Niu Er through with one knife. Sure enough, there was no blood on the knife, but unfortunately, Niu Er couldn't see it.
Yang Zhi is a strange person. He always wants to settle things, but if he fails, he will surrender himself.
Niu Er was also a man who was not loved by anyone, so Yang Zhi did not die, but was sentenced to exile. On the way to exile, he met Liang Zhongshu.
The turtle took a liking to the mung beans, so Liang Zhongshu recruited Yang Zhi into his team and asked him to deliver gifts to his father-in-law.
Yang Zhi, you can't go out anyway, because if you go out, something bad will happen. On the way to deliver a gift to Liang Zhongshu's father-in-law, he ran into the criminal gang of Chao Gai and Wu Yong, and the gift was robbed again.
Yang Zhi was about to vomit blood. He lay on the ground and pounded the ground with his hands.
Liang Zhongshu couldn't go back, so Yang Zhi simply joined Lu Zhishen to become bandits and became the king of Erlong Mountain.
He was doing well as the leader of a chicken, but after the three mountains gathered together, he was forced to join the Liangshan criminal gang and became the tail of a phoenix, with no sense of existence at all.
Yang Zhi's lifelong good luck may have been used to exchange for an ending where he was not beaten to death in Liangshan. With Song Jiang being recruited, Yang Zhi was also cleansed of all charges. With the three thousand taels of silver that he had worked hard to get back, he prepared to return to his hometown to enjoy his old age. He no longer wanted to work outside.
When passing by Bianliang City, Yang Zhi felt itchy in his heart and wanted to go to a brothel to have some fun and have some good time.
As a result, he randomly ordered Xiang Yi, and ended up colliding with Gao Qiu's son Gao Yanei.
Gao Yanei also likes young women, and he fell in love with Xiang Yi, who was in her forties, at first sight.
Yang Zhi was such an unlucky guy that he couldn't even say the three words "I quit" before he was beaten up by Gao Yanei's guards.
This was not the end. Yang Zhi was sent to the Ministry of Justice prison on the grounds that he molested decent women in the street and then attacked Gao Yanei who bravely stood up for justice. In the end, he was caught on the spot because he was not strong enough.
"Yang Zhi, I really didn't expect you to be such a green-faced beast. Even the witches in the Wu Gu Cult aren't as suicidal as you. After you join the cult, try not to go out. You have a natural tendency to cause trouble."
Hu Yanzhuo and Guan Sheng also expressed that they were under great pressure. Going there would really be trouble.
"You still have you." Zhao Huan randomly selected two runners and ordered, "You two take him out, change his clothes, give him some food, and then send him to Doctor Sun. Say it was arranged by me."
After seeing Yang Zhi off, Zhao Huan heaved a sigh of relief and said half-jokingly, "I've never seen such an unlucky person."
"Hahahaha." Everyone chuckled.
There were actually the most people on the third underground floor, all of them were the generals captured today. They were all laughing and joking, not taking the prison seriously at all. A group of people gathered together across the prison bars, spinning the dice, betting on the size, and having a lot of fun.
Majili was about to step forward and scold, but Zhao Huan stopped him.
Facts have proven that they were wronged, and it is inappropriate to treat them in the same way as criminals.
Let them be, they will regret it sooner or later.
Zhao Huan and others continued to go to the fourth floor without paying any attention.
Zhang Bofen and the others had to swallow back what they wanted to say.
