It is said that in ancient times, in Liaocheng County, Dongchang Province, there was a head catcher named Qin Yi. He is kind and jealous of evil, and he is most likely to see good people being bullied by bad people, so he diligently learns martial arts and becomes a catcher who defends justice, specializing in catching evil people. He was born into a poor family, and when he became a parent, he did not have the money to build a new house, and he lived in an old house that leaked rain. His wife, Zhang Shi, was very virtuous and did not blame him for it.
After the couple became intimate, they loved and respected each other very much, and lived in the old house for twenty years. Now Qin Yi's son Qin Dayong is 18 years old and has reached the age when he should become a relative. The old mansion was already in tatters, and Qin Yi planned to take out his savings from years of thrift and find a plot of land to build a new house, so that it would be easier for his son to please his daughter-in-law. Qin Yi found the guy of the tooth shop and asked him to help find a cheap piece of land.
The guy said, "Qin Catcher, the cheapest piece of land is in the suburbs." If you build a house there, it's not very convenient to commute to work. Qin Yutou said, "It doesn't matter, as long as the land is cheap." So Qin Yutou bought a piece of land in the suburbs. While digging the foundation, the workers found a weasel's nest. It seems that this nest has been some years old, and there are three weasels living in it, which looks like a family of three.
The three weasels saw that the living people did not run, so they nested in the nest and refused to go. Li Ermao, a young mason, wanted to go forward and drive them away to continue working. Liu Dacheng, an old mason, stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, don't be impulsive, I see that the female weasel has a big belly, and it is estimated that she is about to give birth, and she can't walk at all." All things are spiritual, and we don't want to hurt them. Or tell Qin Yutou what happened and let him decide what to do? ”
So the two of them told Qin Yutou what had happened. After the kind Qin Catcher saw it, he agreed with the mason Liu Dacheng's statement. He said, "The weasel's nest is on the edge, so retract the place where the wall will be built in the future two feet, and build the house a little smaller." That way the weasel's nest won't be destroyed. So the masons did not destroy the weasel's nest according to qin's catcher.
Three months later, Qin Yutou's new house was finally built. Qin Dayong also married his daughter-in-law, and the family lived a peaceful life. One day, Wang Liang, a commoner from Wangjia Village, ran to the county seat to report to the officials. Saying that Wangjia Village was being plundered by a gang of bandits, he asked the government to quickly send someone to arrest the bandits. The county commander ordered Qin to take three classes of servants to Wangjia Village to arrest the bandits.
Qin Yutou held his fist and led the order away. When Qin Yutou rushed to Wangjia Village with his men, the bandits had not yet left. Qin Yutou led three classes of servants and fought against the bandits. Qin's headhunter was highly skilled in martial arts, and he slashed and defeated several bandits in a row. Due to the heroic performance of Qin's headhunters, the servants all followed suit. Under the leadership of Qin's headhunter, the servants caught more than a dozen bandits, even the bandit leaders.
The head of the Qin hunt and the servants escorted the bandits back to the county court, and the county ordered that the bandit leaders beheaded according to law and showed them to the public, and the rest of the bandits were sent to the frontier. Qin Yutou made a great contribution, and the county order rewarded him with twenty-two pieces of silver. Qin Yutou donated all the silver to the people of Wangjia Village, and did his part to help the people of Wangjia Village rebuild their homes.
Ten days later, in the evening, Qin Yutou hummed a small song and walked home. As he passed through a grove, he suddenly heard a woman's cry for help from the grove. Qin Yutou followed the sound and saw a knife-scarred man in the small forest, trying to bully a woman. Qin Yutou shouted, "Stop," rushing over with his knife. Scarface saw the woman on his back and fled deep into the forest. Qin Yutou didn't think much of it and chased after it.
Scarface disappeared in front of him, and he could not hear the woman's cries for help. A feeling of uneasiness arose in Qin Yutou's heart. Suddenly, a row of sharpened bamboo flew toward him. Qin Yutou jumped and dodged, knowing that he had been ambushed. Qin Yutou raised twelve points of vigilance, and suddenly his right foot was tied by a rope, hanging him up.
Qin Yutou was busy cutting the rope with a knife, which freed him from the shackles. Qin Yutou took a few steps forward, and his left foot seemed to kick something. Three sharp arrows shot at him. Qin Yutou rolled sideways and dodged, but before he could stand, a large net was covered above him and he was caught. At this time, four men and a woman walked out, and Scarface said, "The brothers tied him up and escorted him back to the cottage." ”
Two men stepped forward and tied up Qin's head. Qin Yutou asked, "What the hell are you and why are you kidnapping me?" Scarface said, "Qin Yi, you arrested our big boss ten days ago and beheaded him." Today we will catch you and behead you in front of the grave of the big boss, so as to comfort the spirit of the big boss in heaven. Qin Yutou suddenly realized, "It turns out that you are those few fish that have slipped through the net." I urge you not to continue to do evil, otherwise you will not escape justice. ”
Scarface sneered, "You are now the fish in our net, and you actually taught us a lesson." The brothers beat him up to see if he still had a hard mouth. So several bandits beat up Qin's head and took him back to the cottage to be imprisoned, planning to behead the bandit leader tomorrow. Qin Yu's head was locked up and he looked out the window at the dark night sky. He muttered to himself, "Am I Qin Yi going to be planted in the hands of these bandits this time?" ”
In the middle of the night, Qin Yutou suddenly heard movement under the ground. After a while, he saw a weasel burrowing out of the ground. This weasel he knew very well, it was the nest of weasels on the wall of his house. The weasel said, "Head Qin, I dug a tunnel, so you hurry up and follow me." Qin Yutou was surprised: "You can actually speak?" ”
The weasel said, "I'm three hundred years old, and of course I can speak." Your family saw that you had not come home in the middle of the night, your son came out to look for you, found your knife in the forest, knew that you had an accident and looked around for you, as anxious as ants on a hot pot. I know that after tracking your smell here, I dug this tunnel, as if to repay your kindness for not driving us away. Come with me, lest the bandits find out in a moment." ”
Qin Yutou no longer hesitated to hear this, and escaped from the tunnel with the weasel. Qin Yutou thanked the weasel and ran toward the county court. After Qin Yutou returned to the county court, he summoned three classes of servants. Set out overnight, surrounded the bandit nest, and destroyed the bandit nest in one fell swoop. When Qin Yutou returned home, he went to the weasel's nest by the wall to check and found that the weasel had left.
Qin Yutou sighed, "This time I was able to get out of danger thanks to a good idea at the beginning." Later, Qin Houtou did good deeds to uphold justice and lived a peaceful and peaceful life.
