Chapter 707 – Your Means

Although his subordinates had been beaten up, although it was true that he had signed the IOU, Zheng Lihai really did not plan to return the silver. He knew that he was tricked by someone. Not only did the 100,000 silver he brought sink to the bottom of the sea, he even owed him 200,000 silver. He knew this method and thought that he was more skilled than anyone else, but he never thought that he would fall for this method and fall for it so ruthlessly.

Not long after Zheng Lihai arrived home, all of his subordinates were released, all of them bruised and battered, and there were a few who could not even walk properly, they were all brought back by their comrades.

“Big brother, what should we do about this?”

One of his subordinates, Zheng San, said with a face full of anger, “We brothers have been setting up eagles all day, I didn’t expect to be pecked by them …” “It seems like that guy didn’t come with good intentions, but if he is from the underworld, we should have heard of him.”

“Big Brother, should we pay the silver?”

“I f * * ked you up!”

Zheng Lihai kicked the subordinate who was asking this question out, and was so angry that he trembled: “I have never been humiliated like this before, damn … Little Xu! That bastard, he was the one who set up this trap for me. Go and capture that grandson of his right now! ”

Zheng San was also angered when he heard this. “Yes, it must be that bastard. Big brother, wait for me. I’ll go and bring some people to bring him back.”

Zheng San left with his injured subordinates and did not return for a full two hours. Zheng Lihai was furious and sent his men to look for him. In the end, it took less than half an hour before the men who came to look for him returned.

“Big brother, our people haven’t gone far at all. They were all … They’re all outside. ”

Zheng Lihai’s face changed as he followed his subordinate out. Not far from the alley, he saw a crowd on the street. The dozen or so men he sent out were all stripped naked and tied to pillars with all kinds of bindings. The faces of these subordinates had all swelled up, obviously, they had all received quite a few slaps. Over a dozen of them were tied up with bare butts and stuck in the middle of the street. Who knew how many people had mocked them?

Zheng Lihai did not return the money he owed.

Those who had been bullied by Zheng Lihai all burst out into laughter, all of them laughing until their heads were up and down. Seeing Zheng Lihai coming out, everyone scattered. However, no one walked far. They were all observing from a distance.

“Zheng Lihai must have offended a big shot this time. In the past, it was him who punished others like this. This time, it’s over, he’s been punished.”

“He will get into trouble sooner or later. He will do all sorts of heinous acts all the time. Even if others don’t take revenge on him, the heavens will still watch.”

“Stop bullshitting. God doesn’t have the time to care about us commoners. This was definitely because Zheng Lihai had offended someone, someone even more ruthless than him. In fact, it was inevitable, but think about it, who exactly was Zheng Lihai interacting with all day? It was either someone he had tricked, or someone he had tricked. If you meet someone stronger than him, it would be normal for you to have tricked him. ”

“I feel that Zheng Lihai will not be so easy to deal with.”

“Let’s watch the show.”

Zheng Lihai knew that if he wasn’t able to turn the situation around this time, then he really wouldn’t be able to stay in this place anymore. He let them see how much silver was left in his house, collected ten thousand taels, and then carried the silver to the officer of the Jinling Mansion, Li Tai Lai. Speaking of which, Li Tai Lai was just a constable, but he had a lot of authority in the Jinling Mansion. Although the Jinling Mansion was big, there were only a hundred and twenty constables and two constables. How could such a large Jinling be maintained by jusundred and twenty people?

The matters of the entire Jinling were maintained by the subordinates of these one hundred and twenty constables. Every constable had to take care of people. They were either found from the underworld or found in the name of a disciple. Li Tailai was in charge of these seven or eight streets and had no less than a hundred disciples under his command. The reason why Zheng Lihai extended money to open a casino was because he was also Li Tai Lai’s so-called disciple.

They were the ones who helped Li Tai solve the difficult problems he had encountered.

No one was more familiar with these routes than An Zheng. When he was at that time, the Ming Fa Si was very strict, and no one dared to do this. In the ten years that the Ming Fa Si had been down, all these worms had appeared. Those great figures in the Holy See would never pay attention to such small characters.

In these seven or eight years, Li Tailai could be considered to have made a fortune. He often told Zheng Lihai and the others that without the Ming Fa Si, it was as if heaven had suddenly descended on their heads. A yamen like the Ming Fa Si should have been destroyed a long time ago.

All these years, Li Tai Lai had killed a lot of people, but Prefecture Song had gotten enough benefits so of course he wouldn’t ask.

The reason Li Tailai was able to convince these gangsters was not only because of his ability to work at the yamen, but also because he was ruthless enough. At that time, there waerson on the underworld who refused to accept him. He personally captured that person and then skinned him alive in front of that person’s subordinates. All the people on these streets had to come and see that scene, who knew how many people were scared to the point that they peed their pants.

He didn’t know why, but Li Tailai had actually gotten addicted to peeling people alive. Whoever didn’t listen to him would be captured and skinned alive.

Thinking of all these, Zheng Lihai’s heart trembled. Carrying the silver, he arrived at Li Tai’s home and discovered that the door was still open. He called out a few times, but no one paid any attention to him. He pushed open the door and entered. As soon as he entered, his scalp started to explode.

Someone pushed him on the shoulder, causing Zheng Lihai to fall to the ground withump. The courtyard door creaked shut as two black-clothed men stood behind him, glaring at him like two tigers eyeing their prey.

Zheng Lihai felt that he had entered hell.

There were two wooden stakes in the yard. The constable Li Tailai had his clothes ripped off and was tied tillar with a metal chain. His entire body was covered in blood. The slightly chubby Master Du Xu, with a friendly face, held a small knife in his hand and stood in front of Li Tai Lai.

Du Xu turned his head to look at Zheng Lihai, and laughed: “You’re here, I knew you would come. Sit there, and watch.”

Du Xu turned the little knife in his hand around, “Constable Li, I heard that you are the best at skinning people? I calculated it. Although I just arrived at the capital not too long ago, I’ve already gathered a lot of information. I don’t care about those things. Those who died were all thugs, they deserved to die. But last year, you took a fancy to the daughter of the old cow next door. If you wanted to seize her, the old cow’s family would not agree, so you locked the old cow and his wife in the well. And then we skin her brother alive in front of the old cow’s daughter, right? ”

Li Tailei’s mouth was covered by the rope. He couldn’t even scream if he wanted to. His body was shaking violently, but no one knew if it was because he was in pain or because he was scared.

“My boss told me that to deal with bad people, it’s bullshit if you want to convert them with your kind thoughts. If bad people can be converted, then there would be no bad people. The only way to deal with bad people is to be even worse than bad. ”

Du Xu’s blade pierced through Li Tai Lai’s shoulder: “You want to make a move from here?”

Li Tailei trembled in fear as he shook his head. His eyeballs were about to pop out of their sockets.

“That’s not right?”

Du Xu moved the blade away and placed it at his throat: “Is that here?”

Li Tai shook his head with all his might, the chains on his body clanging loudly.

“That’s not right.”

Du Xu scratched his head impatiently. “Oh … That must be from the top of the head, right, right, only by peeling off the top of the head can you keep your skin intact. Look at my brain, it’s so fucking stupid. ”

He slashed down with his blade and cut Li Tai Lai’s head. Then, he grabbed Li Tai Lai’s head with both hands and started to tear down, blood flowing out from Li Tai Lai’s head and Du Xu’s hands. The scene was extremely horrifying. Du Xu ripped apart a few parts of his scalp, causing Li Tai to scream, but his mouth was blocked off.

Du Xu patted Li Tai Lai’s face with the blade: “Stop screaming, it was shouting too loudly. The old couple from Old Ox Family who are sitting in the well will come out to see you if they hear it. Think about it, if the two of them stood in front of you dripping with water and watched you being skinned by me, would they smile at you? ”

Li Tai Lai’s body violently shook. He was so frightened that he fainted.

“What’s the use of being unconscious? If you’re in pain, you’ll wake up.”

Du Xu used the blade to slice Li Tai Lai’s head time and time again. He used one hand to pull at his scalp and the other hand to cut Li Tai Lai’s head with a knife. Li Tailei woke up in pain as he cried out and shook his head violently.

“Not good.”

Du Xu used the blade to pat Li Tai Lai’s face and said angrily: “Look, your skin is all broken.”

He tossed the knife aside, wiped his hands on a white cloth, and sat down on a chair in the yard. As for Li Tailai, he was still shaking his head crazily. That half of his scalp was swaying along with his head, making him look extremely bloodthirsty and cruel.

“What happened, Master Zheng? Did you pee?”

Du Xu laughed: “You must be here to lend me some money to repay this debt right? I know you don’t know many people, but there seems to be a constable called Dong An, right? You have a good relationship with Li Tailei, and you have a lot of filial piety. “Oh yeah, when this Dong An does bad things, he is also much more capable than Li Tailai.”

He pointed behind him. “Did I recognize the wrong person?”

His subordinate opened the door and saw a corpse hanging on the beam inside. It was the other constable of the Jinling Mansion, Dong An. His body was covered with lashes, and it was unknown how many times he had been whipped.

Seeing that Zheng Lihai was so frightened that he couldn’t even speak, Du Xu helplessly shook his head: “You think you’re bad people? You’re really a waste of your money. How could they be so cowardly? Just like this Dong An, he had gone through 300 lashes to tell everyone about the evil deeds he had done. This Constable Li is faster and more cowardly. I haven’t done anything to him yet, but he admitted me after seeing Dong An getting beaten up … What climate can it be to be a bad person? ”

Du Xu stood up, he walked to Zheng Lihai’s side and squatted down, and patted Zheng Lihai’s face: I’m talking to you, did you not hear me? You can leave now. You won’t be able to borrow silver here anymore. Go back and think of other ways to see if there are still people you know. And if not, I won’t just kill you, you know how it is. That house of yours is still worth a few coins, I’ll charge you ten thousand taels of silver in debt. How about this, I’ll give you ten thousand taels of silver, you can play with me two more times? What if he made a copy? Not only is the debt paid, the house is yours, and so is your sister. ”

Zheng Lihai was so scared that his face drained of blood, his head was shaking likattle drum, half of his soul had already left his body. Even if they didn’t do anything to him, this person was already crippled.

Du Xu said: “Calm down, it’s not the end yet. I calculated... There are still two days until your apocalypse. If you can’t gather three hundred thousand silver in two days, I feel that your fate might be even worse than theirs. ”

Du Xu straightened his body and pointed outside: “Scram.”
