Daming King of Punishment

There were discussions around, and the shopkeeper's face suddenly changed, obviously he had already guessed what Bai Zhuo was talking about.

"My lord, don't talk nonsense! This plague is all rumors, not to mention it has nothing to do with our Chu family! You should talk about the medicine!" The shopkeeper hurriedly stopped Bai Zhuo from He was about to continue, but interrupted him.

Seeing that the other party had already understood what he meant, Bai Zhuo began to feel complacent.

"Why doesn't it matter?" Bai Zhuo shouted loudly: "If it wasn't for the plague, how could your drug prices rise so high? You just want to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune! If not, Why did the price of medicine rise so much for no reason? Don’t say anything about medicine farmers, you can deceive us and those who are in the medicine business? Unfortunately, I happen to have a friend who is in the medicine business It's for business, but they don't have less medicinal materials than this year. On the contrary, they say that the medicinal materials are not easy to collect, all because they were collected at a high price by your Chu family."

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar around.Although the matter of the plague is said to be talked about by the common people, it is something that cannot be confirmed after all.But right now Song Wuya actually directly mentioned the matter of the price of medicine to the plague, and many people in the city should have realized that the price of medicine has been quite high recently.

Originally, the Chu family's reputation in Huai'an Mansion was very good, and the people naturally believed their words, and it was rare for them to doubt them.But now that Bai Zhuo had told them in the street, these ordinary people who hadn't doubted it before started talking about it.

After all, although this matter sounds difficult to say, it can't help people think about it.The Chu family has been established in Huai'an Mansion for several years, and it only has a big image in the hearts of the people.But the situation is different now. The rumors of the plague outside the city are no longer just rumors. After all, there are so many disaster victims gathered at the gate of the city, which more or less makes people feel that the plague has some shadows.

The situation of the people around was caught by the shopkeeper, and his expression panicked all of a sudden.

"Hmph! Today I will throw away my money for nothing." Bai Zhuo saw that the effect was remarkable, and today's goal had been achieved. After throwing down such a sentence, he turned around and was about to get out of the crowd and leave.

"My lord, you can't leave. You're clearly slandering our Chu family. You can't leave until this matter is resolved." Seeing that Bai Zhuo was about to leave, the shopkeeper of the Chu family drug store immediately stopped Bai Zhuo and refused to let him go. leave.

Bai Zhuo was obviously taken aback, obviously he didn't expect that the shopkeeper of the pharmacy would stop him from letting him go.

This is troublesome, as long as he is left behind, it may not be easy for him to leave.

"What? Your Chu family is still in the government?" Bai Zhuo immediately said sharply, "What right do you have to let me stay?"

"You spread rumors here and caused troubles, which caused such a bad influence on our Chu family. We are about to sue you to the officials!" The shopkeeper said loudly in a serious manner.

The government and the Chu family were originally one family, Bai Zhuo felt a little flustered at this moment, he hadn't considered this before, and now he was really a little bit stuck.

He watched the people around gather, they were still discussing what Bai Zhuo said just now, now they all focused their eyes on the field, waiting to see what the outcome of the dispute between Bai Zhuo and the shopkeeper of the Chu family pharmacy would be.

"Why did I spread rumors?" Bai Zhuo quibbled, but he was thinking about how to escape. He couldn't delay here, or else he would really be unable to escape when the people from the Chu family came. Lost.

Bai Zhuo had a troubled expression on his face, but in his heart he was already too anxious.

"You said that our Chu family pharmacy took advantage of the plague to drive up drug prices and make a fortune. Isn't this a rumor?" The shopkeeper of the Chu family was not ambiguous at all. Compared with Bai Zhuo, he was much more confident. .After all, there is no substantive evidence for what Bai Zhuo said, but he has the Chu family as his backer.

Bai Zhuo snorted angrily: "There are so many victims gathered at the gate of the city, and they all said that they fled here because of the plague. Isn't it true about the plague? Besides, the medicines in your pharmacy The price has more than doubled at this time, is this just a coincidence? Now I see that you are clearly caught by me, and you want to stop me, so you want to keep me. "

"You..." The shopkeeper of the Chu family pharmacy was at a loss for words for a moment, Bai Zhuo's words were absolutely correct, and he had no words to refute.

Seeing this was an opportunity, Bai Zhuo immediately snorted coldly: "Hmph! How is it? Did I hit the spot? You don't have anything to say, do you?"

"You are clearly a mess!" The shopkeeper of the Chu family said angrily.

He really had no way to refute it. After all, although Bai Zhuo said this, although there was no way to be sure, but at least the people around heard it, and they would definitely be able to connect the two.And the reason why the shopkeeper of the Chu family pharmacy has nothing to say at this moment is because he knows it in his heart.Faced with such words, I am afraid that the more he explains and argues, the more people will doubt him.

"What nonsense, don't you think you have nothing to say? It seems that I really hit the spot!" Bai Zhuo was so unreasonable that he was about to make a deal on this matter .

Although the shopkeeper of the Chu family showed a trace of panic on his face, he was not completely defeated: "If you insist on saying this, what evidence do you have?"

"Evidence? Do you still need evidence? Isn't what I said just now not obvious enough? Then if you insist that I am spreading rumors, then you should explain it to the big guys!" Bai Zhuo is not stupid enough to give him the truth What kind of evidence comes out? This matter is originally a bad thing to say. Naturally, there is no evidence. It all depends on the people's own wild imagination.

After Bai Zhuo said this, he still couldn't think of a way to escape.He knew that he couldn't delay with the shopkeeper of the Chu family pharmacy now, but he really couldn't leave.

Seeing what he said, the shopkeeper of the Chu family pharmacy had nothing to say, Bai Zhuo pondered for a while and suddenly said: "Don't delay here, I know you want to wait for your Chu family to come. Then send me Take it privately, and then try to find a way to seal my mouth, so that this matter can be peaceful. But I'm not that stupid, so I won't waste time with you here. "

After telling the shopkeeper a straightforward sentence, Bai Zhuo turned around and left without looking back, walking very fast, for fear of being stopped by someone.

Seeing Bai Zhuo approaching, the surrounding people did not block him and immediately made way for him.Many people in the crowd also heard real praise, expressing their praise for Bai Zhuo's performance just now.After all, it is rare for someone in Huai'an mansion to dare to provoke the Chu family so openly.

Bai Zhuo didn't have time to listen to these words, but walked directly to the outside of the crowd, but unfortunately he was still a step late.

"Create rumors about our Chu family, how can we let you leave so easily?"

? Chapter 952 False half-immortal arrested

As soon as Bai Zhuo walked to the middle of the crowd, he heard a person yell angrily at his head, and members of the Chu family swarmed over, blocking Bai Zhuo directly.

Seeing the people from the Chu family coming, the surrounding people retreated one after another, leaving a large open space.

People from the Chu family rushed forward and blocked Bai Zhuo directly.Seeing these people, Bai Zhuo smiled bitterly in his heart. He hadn't considered this at all before, and he didn't expect to be stuck in this place like this.

At the same time, Song Wuya encountered good things here.

The guards climbed over the wall and bumped into someone in the nearby courtyard.

This person is none other than the neighbor he saw when the guard pretended to be drunk to test whether there was anyone in the yard.

The person saw someone entering over the wall, and immediately asked the person's identity.He probably didn't realize that the purpose of Song Wuya's coming here was for him.

The guard who entered the courtyard first did not speak, and two more guards followed behind him.

When the people in the courtyard saw the three people who appeared suddenly, the expressions on their faces immediately panicked.At this moment, he didn't ask any more questions, nor did he shout anything, and turned around and ran away.

How could the imperial guards give him a chance to escape, and with swift strides, they caught up with the man and blocked him before the gate of the courtyard. The other two even flanked him, surrounding him in the middle.

"You can't run away!" The chief guard sneered, and told the man clearly, stop making unnecessary resistance.

The man's face was serious, he looked around at the people beside him and asked coldly, "Are you from the Chu family?"

He thought that the imperial guards were members of the Chu family and blocked him here.

"Why do you say that?" The imperial guard smiled, but instead of answering directly, he asked him a question.

When the man heard this, he understood immediately, but the expression on his face became even more surprised.

"You are not from the Chu family! Then who are you? What do you want to do?"

"You will know who we are soon. The purpose of our coming here is to let you take us into this room to have a look." The guard pointed directly at the house next to the wall and said sharply.

As soon as the words came out, the man's face changed again: "The room has been empty, there is nothing to see."

"Nothing to see?" The guard sneered: "Is that room hiding the ghosts in your heart?"

"I'm going to yell when you break into the private houses. Don't blame me when you come to the government!" The man knew that the guards were not good, and he knew something, so he moved out of the government to suppress them, so that They retreated.

Naturally, the imperial guards would not worry about this, after all, they were originally from the government.Although the government of Huai'an Mansion may not be the same as them, they still have the power in their hands.

"Haha! It's really funny, then you should call someone over and find the government. I'll see if we are afraid or you are afraid!"

Knowing that this person would not dare to offend the government, the imperial guards naturally spoke without fear.

Originally, I just had the idea of ​​giving it a try. After all, the guards had clearly pointed to that room. Even a fool should know that the guards must know what's inside.But at this moment, when the imperial guard said this, the man was completely paralyzed.

"We have no enmity in the past, and we have no grievances in the present. What do you want? Could it be that you are from the government?" Seeing that he failed to bluff the guards, the man's tone naturally eased a lot, and it is natural to use a soft tone to deal with tough misfortune. up. "Look at you, you don't look like people from the government! How many heroes in the government have such arrogance? I don't know if you offended a few of them in the past, which made them so embarrassing? Maybe it's one of them It’s just some misunderstanding, we might as well open the skylight and speak out, what do you guys think?”
