"Heifu Heifu, it was a headstrong man, and it hurt me a lot ..."

Ji Ying, armed with a dagger, was wary of the thief in front of him, and he regretted it very much. How smart a person he was in the past, how could he stand in front of these four thieves with Heifu on impulse?

The man who had been chased before was probably a local businessman, who fled for his life and did not forget his heavy package. Seeing someone coming to block the thief, he immediately lit up, immediately got behind them, said "thank you" and then disappeared, leaving only Ji Ying and Heifu to fight against each other.

At first glance, the four thieves were bandits of Yunmengze. Three of them were in rags, dark-faced, armed with crude weapons, or their heads tied with short sticks, or axes and harpoons. Only the big campus man in the middle was dressed in broken leather armor and armed with a polished iron sword!

This man is the leader of the thief. Seeing that Ji Ying and Heifu have ruined their good deeds, he spread his arms and let the three accomplices scatter. At the same time, he said in a strong local accent, "If you want to stay alive, get out of the way!"

Hei Fu was not afraid. In his previous life, he did not follow the task when he was an intern at the police station. When he saw many similar scenes, he laughed and said, "I should say this to you." At the same time, he pointed to Ji Ying's side and said, "One for you and three for me!"

Say that finish, black, then suddenly stepped forward, close to the campus big fellow, as a thorn, forcing the thief back several steps ...

Things happened quickly, and when Ji Ying reacted, Heifu had attracted the attention of three people, and the remaining thief found him.

Although Ji Ying boasted that he was good at martial arts, in fact he only learned three punches and two feet for self-defense. Fortunately, the thief who met him had no skill. The two men pecked at each other for a long time, but they were not injured except for being covered in dirt and panting.

However, Ji Ying still felt that Heifu, with one enemy against three, was definitely not an opponent. When the three thieves solved Heifu, they would come to besiege him.

It's bloody! Ji Ying almost wanted to cry, and secretly scolded, "I'm only nineteen, and I haven't married yet! If you die like this, how can you be worthy of your parents? "

When he was thinking about how to get out, he heard a stuffy hum from behind him. Jiying was frightened, and thought it was Heifu's move. When he took a look at the gap, he was a bold thief with an axe who pounced on Heifu. He had fallen to the ground, got a sword on his ankle, and at the same time, he was covering his stomach, and his expression was painful!

"Hey? Heifu is a good fellow. "

Before Ji Ying's export praise, the thief jumped up again in front of him, and they wrestled together. It took a while to separate. At this time, he heard a scream again, and hurriedly turned back, only to see that the thief who made the short brother was also knocked to the ground by Heifu, with his hands covering his bloodied thighs, crying, and his dagger was deeply plunged in, leaving only the hilt.

Next season, Ying was a little surprised: "Knocking down two people in a row, Heifu is really amazing!"

It happened so suddenly that Ji Ying didn't know what happened behind him, but what happened next made him unforgettable.

At this point, Heifu's sword was inserted in the leg of the second fallen thief, and there was no weapon in his hand, but he still had to face the heavily armed campus man, so what to do!

Campus Man thought of this, too, and burst out laughing wildly. "Little vertical, you can do whatever you want. Without weapons, you are no match for Naigong!"

Say, he roars "Die!" , single-handed blade rushed at Heifu! This posture is to stab Heifu to wear!

Ji Ying's heart was in his throat, but Heifu didn't panic. He stood where he was, his legs diverged, his feet inched, his fists on his chest, and a pair of eyes stared at the movements of the big fellow Campus to determine its attack range.

When he was about to rush to the front, he gave a jerk. At the same time, his right hand quickly grabbed the thief's left arm, tugged hard at himself, and his left hand turned into a fist and hit the thief's elbow!

Crash! Only once, will the dagger of the big fellow of campus be knocked out of his hand cleanly.

Is not only JiYing, even the campus big fellow one leng, it's an empty hand!

Campus big fellow frightened, repeatedly backward, he lost his weapon, but still evil to bravery edge, want to fight back.

Heifu had expected, first a block, grabbed his arm, then raised his left foot, and kicked the thief's abdomen hard, just what he wanted!

When the big fellow bent down with pain, Heifu slammed his left elbow on his back again, forcing the big fellow to lie on the ground, unable to move, and then Heifu picked up his weapon and resisted his throat ...

However, the whole process was instantaneous, and Heifu put down three thieves cleanly with flowing moves!

Ji Ying has opened his mouth in surprise. Seeing this, the thief who confronted him has already fled ...

Black, hold down the campus big fellow, is panting, he knew that he was in a dangerous situation just now, far from looking so relaxed.

Qin is a warrior. Men always carry weapons when they go out. His dagger is only over a foot long, which is as long as the fighting dagger of the Armed Police Academy of later generations. Fighting with a dagger in the back is precisely the skill that Heifu practices most. Moreover, he is left-handed in past lives, so his moves are different from those of ordinary people, and it's hard to prevent.

The two thieves rushed up to starve for a long time, and their bodies were weak and thin. Of course, they couldn't beat Heifu, and they were put down to the ground without two strokes.

The trouble is, when Heifu's dagger pierced the leg of the thief with the dagger, the big man of Campus also attacked him, forcing Heifu to abandon his sword and retreat, and his elbow was stabbed with a wound.

Fortunately, he still has a killer weapon, that is, "Seize the enemy's fist" that he learned in the Armed Police College in his past life! When he came to this era, he practiced a few tricks when he watched no one, and didn't want to come in handy today.

There are 16 types of enemy boxing, with both hands and feet, and wrestling and capture combined. According to different situations, you can fight four doors with force.

The front-line police are often faced with hooligans with brute force or armed thugs instead of skilled attackers who have received systematic training. Therefore, it's a perfect way to deal with the petty thieves who became bandits in ancient times.

As for Ji Ying's magic "grabbing a white blade with an empty hand", it's just the fourth type of "grabbing the wrist and smashing the elbow" of the enemy fist. It's the best trick to deal with gangsters with lethal weapons. Then, another "tripping" and a "side kick and smashing" will subdue the campus.

Although these thieves are outlaws, most of the plunderers are unarmed merchants and fishermen. Where have they seen such professional moves? In addition, with the carelessness of "three enemies and one enemy", taking turns, it gave Heifu a chance to divide and conquer. If they swarmed, Heifu felt that he might not win.

"What are you doing? Help me tie them up."

At that time, the campus under him began to struggle savagely, and Heifu quickly stopped him. Seeing that Jiying was still in a daze, he shouted a few times. Jiying just reacted and limped over to help him. In the fight just now, he twisted his foot.

"Heifu, it turns out that you are so good at martial arts. No wonder you are not afraid of outnumbering the enemy."

Ji Ying untied his belt, found vines, and helped Heifu tie up the three thieves, and began to praise his skill.

"Then why did you come forward with me?" Ji's three-legged cat kung fu, Heifu also saw it in his eyes, but he didn't despise it and didn't immediately turn away, which was quite good.

"I'm not afraid of being investigated by officials afterwards."

Ji Ying explained reluctantly, "You are right. Laws and regulations have words. If someone robs and kills people on the road, passers-by within a hundred paces will not be rescued, and they will be treated as (zΡ) dimethyl!"

It means a fine. This article stipulates that Heifu knows that this is one of the reasons why he respects the laws of the state of Qin. In later generations, being courageous is just a kind of "virtue", but in the state of Qin, being courageous is expressly protected by the law and becomes an obligation, which every Qin person should do!

"If later generations can do the same ..."

It's really not that he cherishes the past and cherishes the present. It's just the strange phenomenon of the 21st century in which the old people fall to the ground and dare not help, but they are blackmailed. It's really chilling, and one can only say "people's hearts are not old".

If it is placed in the state of Qin, do you dare not help an old man if he falls down? Don't you dare to blackmail when you are lifted up?

Qin officials use law instead of morality to teach you to be a man in minutes!

"Do you know how much a fine of dimethyl is worth?" Ji Ying tied the last knot and looked up and asked.

"This ....." Heifu first came to this era, and he was still unclear about various prices.

Before he could think of it, Ji Ying said in rapid succession, "In Nanjun, the first one is 1344 yuan, and the second one is 2688 yuan!"

"It's really expensive!"

Heifu sighs, he somehow knows that the price of rice in Anlu County ranges from 40 to 120 dollars per stone according to the difference of good years and bad years. Take this year's rice price of "stone eighty" as an example, which is equal to a fine of 33 stone millet. It is a year and a half's ration for a seven-foot man like Heifu, which is not a small amount.

To say what is the characteristic of Qin law, one word: fine, the mouse bites the granary pocket. One more word: heavy! From the fine, we can see the severity of Qin law's punishment.

This means that a poor soldier can suffer huge economic losses just by not helping the fallen grandmother. It is no wonder that later generations often say that Qin law is harsh.

On the other hand, if there is a heavy penalty, there will be a big reward!

When the three thieves were tied up and some herbal leaves were found to help Heifu treat the wound on his hand, Ji Ying asked mysteriously, "Then do you know how much reward the government has for catching one thief?"

Heifu said, "Don't keep me in suspense, just say it."

"This is what I heard from the wanderers in the countryside."

Ji Ying picked up a branch, wrote fourteen and three on the ground, then pointed to them and said, "There are laws and regulations, and it is equivalent to beheading two thieves alive, and the government rewards fourteen gold! One or two gold, worth 576 and a half dollars ... "

Before he could break his fingers, Heifu finished his mental arithmetic, and gasped, "Fourteen gold, that's 8,064 yuan … My God. “

"Yes, yes, you captured three people, when there are more than twenty-four thousand money reward! "

Speaking of this, Ji Ying patted Heifu on the shoulder with envy, saying, "Heifu, you have made a fortune. You are rich and have no memories!
