Chapter 24: Assassination
Liao Hua returned to the door and asked for some water to wash his hands. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Liao Hua first reported his name, and then asked the name of the doorman. The old man is also peaceful and humble: don't be expensive, the little old man's surname is the door, which is the door of the gatekeeper. The little one is my nephew, and Liao Gongzi just calls him Xiaomen.
The old man told Liao Hua that Mr. Ma Qian received the child's food box, and before he had time to open it, he was pressed by Sheriff Lin Sui and went to Jingzhaonan Station at the front gate, and let me thank you before leaving. The old man said: Childe is a very face-saving person, the old door has been the door for many years, and I have never seen the opening of the park, giving it away.
Where is the little door sullen: So what! You give the horse front twist to eat. That guy got such a big food box, and he didn't give you half a bite of snacks in return. That guy doesn't fall down, and he still can't look down on us.
Before the old door could talk, someone outside the door picked up: Xiaomen is angry! Don't be angry, split three sugar canes to relieve hatred!
When Liao Hua and the three of them walked out of the door together, they saw a short, middle-aged man with two whiskers, who had just put two bundles of sugarcane against the wall.
Lao Men saw him: Lao Gui, why are you always teasing my nephew, what is there to split when you break sugar cane, sell it elsewhere!
Lao Gui spat out his phlegm: He is difficult, the streets are full of cars, and there is no room for even a foothold, I called the police to rush around, finally you are still less crowded here, more spacious, rest, you tell me to go elsewhere.
Xiaomen didn't speak, but took a sugar cane, took a knife that sold sugar cane, and was about to play!
Old door: Small door, a knife, it will cost five points. Three knives is fifteen points, and you can earn a few fifteen cents a day.
Where is Lao Gui encouraged: Xiaomen, split! Uncle, I will let you stab, and I don't need money for the first knife today.
Lao Men: What is the benefit of splitting sugarcane?
Lao Gui: If you chew the roots, you can do everything, and if you can split the sugarcane, you will be easy to do.
The old man was furious: Foolish! When you are a professor at a public relations university! A blind person! You have forgotten that you signed the paperwork yourself and gave away the store for nothing.
Lao Gui was scarred, and he was furious: Old bastard! Your ancestors are still the founding fathers of the country, why are you mixed up with your surname, and you are a watchdog!
The two looked at each other angrily!
The chest of the small door is constantly undulating!
He pressed the knife against the top of the cane, which was a head taller than himself, and took a step back to stand on the steps. He yelled, jumped up and swung his knife, and slashed.
He was a little too impetuous. Liao Hua saw that he jumped up and swung his arm so much, and he knew that it was not good. Sure enough, the sugarcane that no one helped fell by itself, and the small door was slashing into the middle of the sugarcane, splitting two sections. The port is at a 45-degree angle.
He didn't speak, but put the two sections of sugar cane against the wall, and the new stubble was up. And I went to get the second cane.
The old man persuaded him: Xiaomen, I know that you have a high heart! I want to join the army and restore the glory of my ancestors. Not to mention that now that the four seas are leveling, there is no place for heroes. Even if Beifu is recruiting soldiers now, you have to know that it is not a life to send to death, and Beifu does not want people. Not to mention the prince in this dynasty, even the prince also had two soldiers from Beifu who died in battle.
Xiaomen said hatefully: It is better to die in battle! The life of the prince is not cheaper than mine, and he can not retreat from death. Even if ten thousand arrows pierce the body, it is better than living!
The old man made him speechless with anger.
Lao Gui slapped his thigh: My eldest nephew is ambitious! You split three times a day, and there are two knives left today, and you will only be charged one knife!
The small door jumped down from the stairs again, and just like the last time, there was a barricade!
The small door was cleaned up hatefully. Throw five cents of copper coins to Lao Gui, don't touch Lao Gui's cheapness, and don't split anymore, squatting and getting angry.
The old man was also angry. One on the left and one on the right squatted at the door and got angry.
Lao Gui is in a good mood. He threw five cents of copper coins into the air. Then tuck into your fanny pack.
He looked at Liao Hua: Childe will also come to chop three knives 1 The first knife does not cost money, how much to chop, how much to give, to the end, the two halves do not stick to the ribbon rod, and do not take a penny.
Liao Hua suddenly became childlike, he was not a person who spent money indiscriminately.
He took five points: I buy a sugar cane.
Lao Gui is a little anxious: the first knife doesn't cost money!
Liao Hua put the money in his hand: if it can be split, it will be five points if it can't be split. Otherwise, I'll go!
Lao Xiaomen was no longer angry, and stared at Liao Hua.
Lao Gui Hengjin also came up: the young man is very vigorous. If you do, I'll give you three more free cuts.
The old man quenched: It's really embarrassing!
Liao Hua also smiled.
He found a straight sugar cane, pressed it with the blade, straightened his arm, bent his elbow slightly, raised the knife no more than half a foot, stepped up with strength, and bent his body under the knife. With a knife into the ground, the cane stalk is divided in two and falls to the left and right.
When I got up, I saw Lao Gui and Lao Xiaomen open their mouths wide!
There was applause behind him. I saw an old man in Tsing Yi in his sixties who was in good spirits and had a jade mask in his eyes standing on the steps behind him. Liao Hua looked back again, and couldn't help but be stupid, and saw Yiren again!
The young woman smiled and said, "I heard that my grandfather also liked to chop sugar cane when he was young."
The two guards accompanying him were in their forties, and their faces twitched, as if they were holding back their laughter!
The old man laughed: "Let's play with grandpa!" Show you a hand today, so that others don't have to say that grandpa loves to brag!
One of the guards came over and took a knife from Liao Hua's hand, and another brought a sugar cane.
When the old man saw the old man, he bowed his head thoughtfully.
The old man pressed against the sugar cane with the blade, straightened his arm, bent his elbow slightly, raised the knife no more than half a foot, stepped up and made a strong inch, and the knife went down, and his body was bent. With a knife into the ground, the cane stalk is divided in two and falls to the left and right.
He glanced at Lao Gui, was stunned for a moment, threw the knife on the ground, and laughed: No need to give money!
Suddenly, his and the two guards looked different. Liao Hua also felt that suddenly the air was cold.
There was a thud and two steel arrows shot from the roof of the house forty meters away.
A guard stepped forward to protect the old man, wielding a sword and arrows. Before he could do so, he pounced on his chest until the end of the arrow, and the guard fell backwards, and blood spat out his mouth.
Another arrow ran towards the woman.
When Liao Hua came out of the woman, he looked at her intently, which was actually very rude.
The two guards only cared about the old man, and had no time to separate. The woman seemed to know some kung fu, and she actually had the consciousness to dodge, but she couldn't avoid it.
Liao Hua had the intention to save people, jumped over, and hit the woman's chest with a punch, and the woman was knocked away with one punch, and fell into the threshold, and the steel arrow was nailed to the door panel with a bang, and it still vibrated by itself.
Liao Hua looked back and saw the current situation!
Two crossbowmen knelt on the roof of the house and were winding. Among the crossbowmen, one of them actually held up a small red flag and commanded. On the other side of the road, two knights, unarmoured but armed with spears, unhurriedly urged their horses.
The old man said, "Stand back!"
The living guard guarded the crossbowman's direction, covering the old man's entrance. The crossbowmen began to shoot in turns, not to miss, but to prevent them from retreating into the door.
The old man said, "Don't retreat!" Before you ride the gun, you have to kill the crossbowman!
Liao turned into a short body, touched a sugar cane, and saw that it was the small door that was cut in half.
I heard the Red Banner Commander shouting orders to the crossbowmen: drive them away from the gate and kill the guards first!
Liao Hua has another long sugar cane, waiting for the opportunity.
There was a thud, and an arrow was fired at the guard. The guard slammed it off and flew diagonally to the ground. The other crossbowman did not trigger it, waiting for his partner to wind it.
Liao turned into a person, but there was a person who got up earlier than him, and it turned out to be an old man. The old man grabbed a black brick and shouted, "Kill the thief!" and threw it at the crossbowman, but the brick fell to the ground before it flew seven or eight steps in front of Liao Hua.
The red flag commander waved the flag violently, and the two riders picked up speed, and he shouted to the crossbowman: Kill him!
With a bang, the steel arrow slashed the chest and knocked the old gate over!
Liao Hua accelerated in two steps, waved his right arm, and threw it at the chest of the red-clothed commander. Hand the cane in your left hand to your right hand and continue to run, throwing a second cane that meows at the crossbowman who has just been wound.
He stumbled a few steps, almost fell, and with his left hand on the ground, he was grasping at the bricks thrown by the old door.
Liao Hua didn't see that the sugarcane he threw missed the shot. However, when he stood up, there was only one crossbowman on the roof. The crossbowman looked hideous, stood up, and meowed at Liao Hua.
With a thud, the steel arrow rushed in. Liao Hua had nowhere to hide, so he subconsciously held the brick to block his chest, the steel arrow was shooting in the center of the brick, and Liao Hua felt that the fingers of his left hand were almost broken. The left hand holding the brick hit his chest hard, causing Liao Hua to sit on the ground. The back is against the outer wall of the pear orchard. A pit the size of an egg was carved out in the middle of the brick, revealing a black core, but it was not broken.
While the crossbowman was still standing and winding, he saw a long cane fly by, and a rod pierced his belly, throwing him off the roof.
Liao Hua looked back, the old man grabbed another sugarcane and said to the guard: Retreat!
The two of them turned sharply and walked away. As soon as he reached the steps, the rider in front of him was only a dozen steps, but he could rush to it with a single breath. The old man and the guard stopped, not giving up their backs to the riders, and prepared to meet them.
The door jumped out, he picked up the dead guard's knife, and shouted: Kill the thief!
Facing the rider, he rushed over, Liao Hua struggled to get up, ran to the door, Lao Gui who was paralyzed on the ground also came to life, and threw Liao Hua a small door of sugarcane, Liao Hua rushed forward with a brick in one hand and sugarcane in the other. Lao Gui held up a long sugar cane and jumped forward and rushed forward.
The three shouted in unison: Kill the thief!
The rider did not even slow down, did not stab the big gun, and shook and swept. The gun borrowed the speed of the horse, so he took the small door with the knife, and flew away, and the knife was out of his hand in the air, and the small door fell to the ground and rolled seven or eight meters, covered with blood, and fell to the ground and did not move.
The rider suddenly stood up, held the gun in one hand, and threw it at the old man. The momentum is amazing!
The rider behind him was also on his feet, and at a distance of twenty paces, he also threw his spear.
The old man waved the sugar cane, and with a slap, the first big gun was deflected and plunged into the brick crack outside the door more than a foot deep.
The old man and the guard entered the door one step at a time, kicked through the door, and the second big gun knocked a large hole in the door, and the gun flew into the patrol road in the courtyard.
The first rider glanced at Liao Hua and Lao Gui, and brushed off his horse.
The second rider still had strength to spare, drew his riding knife and wanted to slash. Liao Hua threw the sugar cane, and the rider slammed the back of the knife and flew away.
Lao Gui stabbed with a long sugar cane, and the man cut off the foot and a half with a knife.
Liao Hua can ride a horse, and the horse police department has a good kung fu of pumping people to drive away. He moved sharply, jumped to the other side of the horse's head so that the rider could not reach over the horse's head and struck him, and leaned forward, swinging the brick with his left hand.
The rider was on both sides of the enemy, and he was too close to dodge! Planted headlong on the horse.
Old Gui Ting's sharpened sugar cane was stabbing at the bottom, and the man disappeared at once, and was stabbing the horse's buttocks behind the saddle.
The horse was immediately startled, and at once knocked Lao Gui into a fight, and ran away violently, and the rider was dragged away with one foot still on the stirrup.
Liao Hua stood there. Look around,
In front of the door, the old man and one of the guards were lying on their backs on the ground, with the tail of an arrow exposed on their chest.
The small door was lying far away, and I was afraid that it would not survive.
Looking into the door, there was no sign behind the door that had been knocked open by a large gun.
On the two-foot-high wall outside the doorway, a large gun was inserted deeply, like the railing of the gate.
Liao Hua suddenly felt as if he was standing alone in the wilderness at night.
Lao Gui slowly got up, picked up his sugarcane knife, and bowed to the old door and the small door: Old brother, big nephew, I'm sorry, Lao Gui is too busy to take care of himself, and he can't restrain the remains of the two!
walked to the wall, picked up two bundles of sugar cane, stabilized his swaying figure, and dragged the distracted Liao Hua: Brother, follow me.
Liao Hua lost his soul at the moment, had no opinions, followed Lao Gui forward, not far away, he entered a small alley, turned around, and gradually moved away from the pear orchard.
Walking to no one's place, Lao Gui put down the sugarcane, coughed, and vomited blood.
He saw Liao Hua looking at him and waved his hand: Don't worry! Spit it out, it's much more comfortable. It's less uncomfortable.
He said to Liao Hua again: Student, get dressed well, the police patrolling the streets of the Mojiao Yamen are suspicious!
Lao Gui also slapped the dirt on his body and tidied up his clothes.
After the whole thing, he asked Liao Hua to turn around and see how big it was. He also turned around and asked Liao Hua to help check it.
He looked at Liao Hua: Why didn't the little brother ask me anything about Lao Gui?
Liao Hua shook his head, he didn't know what to ask?
Lao Gui: It can be seen that the little brother is a real person, and he is also from a poor family in the countryside.
Liao Hua didn't like his words: What happened to the countrymen? Counting three generations of people in the city, how many of them are not countrymen?
Lao Gui coughed and laughed: Ambitious!
"Ambition can't be eaten. Little people live in the world, and they can only avoid disasters, not seek good fortune.
If you ask for it, it's like betting with Lord Hades. You may win, but lose more.
If you lose, you lose your life. You win, Lord Yama doesn't care, there are fools who come to gamble.
I'm not afraid that you won, I'm afraid that you won't come, as long as you don't get off the table, sooner or later you will lose. ā
Liao Hua was depressed: If life is not interesting, why not gamble?
Lao Gui laughed: If the world comes to that point, Lao Gui will gamble with you, and I see that your chances of winning are bigger than others!
Liao Hua arched his hand and said goodbye.
Lao Gui asked him: Where to go?
Liao Hua: Anyway, I won't go to that table. It's important to hurry up to the South Railway Station to catch the train!
Lao Gui showed him the way, telling him not to walk the way he came, but to take the Xibian Gate instead, and follow the avenue under the inner city to reach the front gate.
Liao Hua walked a few steps, stopped and looked back: Are you a reader?
Lao Gui smiled bitterly: If I were a scholar, as for signing the documents myself, I would give the store away for nothing!
The two looked at each other for a while, and they both smiled bitterly helplessly. Go your separate ways!
