Chapter 3: The Disaster of the Secret Letter
It is said that after Bai Rutang and Dong Chengcheng separated, he took Du Sheng through the streets and alleys of the city for a long time, but he still hadn't reached the place where the letter was hidden, Du Sheng was very impatient and asked, "Where did you hide the secret letter?"
Bai Rutang said: "It's almost there." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ He walked in front of Du Sheng only two steps apart, and just turned a corner on the street, Du Sheng followed closely, but at this moment a row of sharp arrows shot at a hurry. Although the incident was sudden, Na Du Sheng still reacted quickly, his body suddenly rose into the air, and the arrow shot rapidly from under his feet.
Someone seemed to expect him to take off to avoid the arrows, and a large net shrouded him in mid-airβalready waiting for him. But the man still underestimated Du Sheng's light skills, only to see that he could twist in mid-air, kick his feet in the corner of the wall, and his body flew out like a bird, suddenly turning the big net into an ornament. Du Sheng escaped the other party's calculations with his shocking light skills, and as soon as his figure landed, he jumped back and shouted: "Who is the ghost trace?"
Those people were determined to save people, and they had already calculated a way out, and after a blow, they dispersed, and suddenly disappeared without a trace. This place is at the corner of the street, extending in all directions, he has no skills, how can he chase? He said angrily: "Bai Rutang, if the old man doesn't crush your bones and scatter ashes, he won't be Du Sheng." β
At that time, the situation was critical, Bai Rutang used a trick to slow down Du Sheng, although he could delay it without any means, but he also hoped that the disciples of the Tianlong Gang could find him and try to save him. So he took Du Sheng around the alley, and soon saw the code at the foot of the wall, he knew it, and brought Du Sheng to this crossroads, and when he turned the corner, he saw a row of archers standing in front of him, and immediately fell to the ground. In an instant, sharp arrows flew over his head and shot towards Du Sheng. As soon as someone pulled him, he entered an alley, turned around a section, and entered a dilapidated hut. There were more than a dozen people gathered in the hut, and when they saw Bai Rutang coming in, they all stood up.
Early this morning, the officers and soldiers surrounded Damen Street, and without saying anything, they smashed the door to arrest the disciples of the Tianlong Gang. Bai Rutang escaped with Dong Chengcheng with his good martial arts, and the rest of the people have been arrested. These days the disciples of the Dragon Gang are all distributed in various towns and villages, and they received the news last night and got up early in the morning.
The Tianlong Gang is still the largest gang today, starting with the family gang in the Tang Dynasty. It was passed on to the former gang leader Hong Zheng, who was loyal and courageous, and was famous all over the world for leading the whole gang to assist the Yanmen Pass guards to resist the Liao soldiers' attack. With the help of the army management model, the Tianlong Gang has developed rapidly, and today it has reached a higher level in the hands of the gang leader Hong Fei, and its reputation is unparalleled. Although the small Hangzhou rudder, the strength is higher than the ordinary small gangs, and there are many branches under the rudder, which are usually distributed in various market towns. These people in this house are the heads of the market towns.
Looking at them, the pressure in Bai Rutang's heart was relieved. It has been less than a day since last night, and these branches have not only received the news, but also rushed to come, which shows that the rudder's ability to reflect is still good, and he is confident that he will deal with this crisis.
Bai Rutang said: "You are fortunate. I'm sure everyone knows what's going on, our opponents are extremely strong, and you have to be prepared. β
A middle-aged man said: "What does the helmsman command." "He is Bai Rutang's extremely dependent deputy Lin Xin, and it was he who planned to save people just now.
Bai Rutang said: "The matter is no longer something that our rudder can bear, we must report it as soon as possible." Elder Dong is in Du Sheng's hands and wants to try to save him. But we have one more important thing to do, to find a little boy with all our might. Also, you have to be very careful not to appear as the Dracons. He also has a layer of worry, although the Tianlong Gang is chivalrous and righteous, although it is not in the court class, but it is usually safe with the government, and he is suddenly wanted, the reason behind this must be very amazing, and the implication must be earth-shattering.
Lin Xindao: "Child?"
Bai Rutang nodded, he had seen Song Xiaofu once, although it was at night, he still had a little impression, and said: "Fourteen or fifteen years old, quite delicate, listening to the accent, he should be a local, and he can appear in the city in the middle of the night, it should be around this city." Based on his impression, he said seven or eight points more than Song Xiaofu's appearance.
Seeing that the guys had gone out one by one, he suddenly felt exhausted and sat down on a chair all of a sudden. Indeed, to be able to get out of Du Sheng's hands, it was undoubtedly to go to the palace of the king of Hades, he closed his eyes and wanted to calm down, Huo Di stood up and muttered: "Yang Dashanren!" He had just thought of him.
Bai Rutang tried his best, and Dong Chengcheng only woke up when the officers and soldiers surrounded Damen Street, and Dong Chengcheng didn't have time to say anything other than telling him to find the secret letter that he had found and lost. Bai Rutang didn't know why he came to Hangzhou, why he was injured, and he didn't know when a big man like Du Sheng came to Hangzhou City. But as soon as Lin Feiyang entered the city, he attracted the attention of the Tianlong Gang, because he swaggered into the city. So when Bai Rutang thought about the whole thing from beginning to end, he thought of Yang Renhai, "Lin Feiyang is his guest, does this matter have anything to do with him?"
Bai Rutang suddenly felt that his whole body was sweating.
Song Xiaofu carried the rice back to Qingyin Temple, and it was almost noon. His heart was empty all morning. Although what happened last night made him shocked, but in retrospect, he was more excited. Because he saved a person, he was full of pride in his little heart, and he felt like the Monkey King in "Journey to the West", and he felt as if he had grown up a lot. But when he saw that the man he had saved was actually a thief, his heart fell from a high place into a cliff, and he wondered, "Should I save him?" I don't know why, he usually hates dreams, but when something happens, he feels that he is more trustworthy than his parents.
"Right and wrong, good and evil, but ask for a clear conscience...... Child, can you understand?" Looking at Song Xiaofu's confused expression, Mengjue spit out such a sentence for a long time.
Song Xiaofu shook his head.
"It is difficult to distinguish right from wrong in the world...... You'll understand. Mengjue said quietly, he looked at Song Xiaofu's childish face, and suddenly he didn't dare to look at his bright and innocent eyes. He was thinking, "Son, you can be confused, it's so much better than I am."
Looking out the window, the clouds stopped talking.
Song Xiaofu couldn't understand Mengjue's words, he only felt that there was a lot of truth in his words, and he wanted to ask again, but when he saw that he suddenly changed as if he had changed as a person, he didn't dare to ask more, so he saluted him and went home.
When Song Xiaofu returned home, his mother had already cooked the meal, but his father had not come home yet. Song Ci finally let go of his heart when he saw him, which had been hanging for a morning inexplicably. Song Xiaofu had eaten and asked, "Hasn't Sunset come over yet?" A few days ago, he took Chen Wanxia to the back mountain to pick peaches, not wanting to be greedy for a while, he fell down from the tree, and the few peaches in his arms were all broken, and he had made an appointment to take her to the back mountain today.
Song Ci smiled and said, "On a hot day, where are you going to take her to the wilderness?
Song Xiaofu replied: "No." I thought to myself, "Hey, yes, why didn't Master leave me?" β
"Is anyone home?" suddenly someone called outside.
Song Xiaofu said: "Mother, the child will go and see." "Their family has lived in Hangzhou for most of their lives, but they live alone in the suburbs, and few people are looking for them except for Chen Xin's family and Yang Jineng. Song Xiaofu went out to take a look, and saw a man standing in front of the fence threshold, which was as white as a hall. He was shocked: What did this bad guy find me?
Tianlong helped his disciples to find Song Xiaofu with all their might, and finally learned from a schoolboy that he was extremely close to Yang Jineng and lived in the suburbs. After Bai Rutang heard the news, he hurried over, and when he saw Song Xiaofu, he said happily: "Little brother, I really found you." β
Song Ci asked in the room, "Who's scared?" β
"Mother, it's a friend I met in the city. He ......, "Song Xiaofu didn't want Bai Rutang to go to see his mother, so he was speechless for a while.
Bai Rutang said: "The little brother is in the hall, and he doesn't dare to disturb him, so it's polite here." As he spoke, he bowed from afar. Song Xiaofu saw that he was polite in words and deeds, and his appearance was kind, unlike the bad guy in "Journey to the West", and he was suspicious.
Bai Rutang said: "The little brother has a life-saving grace to the elders of the Open Gang, Bai Rutang is grateful, because there is a matter of great importance, it is really disturbing." β
Song Xiaofu said: "What's the matter? I'm a kid and I don't understand anything. He thought, no matter if he is a good person or a bad person, he will definitely not be good if he comes to the door for no reason, anyway, I don't promise anything, in broad daylight, he will never bully a child as an adult.
Bai Rutang said: "Little brother, can you see a letter? β
"Letter?"
"Yes, yes, do you know where the little brother is?" Bai Rutang asked anxiously.
Song Xiaofu's half-hung heart was put down, isn't it just a letter? Didn't I pick up a letter last night? It seems that he lost it and gave it to him...... Suddenly I remembered something, and said, "Hey, the letter ......."
"What, little brother, did you really see that secret letter?" Bai Rutang's heart suddenly rose to his throat.
"I picked it up, but ......" Seeing that Bai Rutang was so nervous and worried, Song Xiaofu knew that the letter must be very important, but he didn't expect to be dropped into the toilet by himself, what kind of mouth is this?
Suddenly, a figure snatched out from behind Bai Rutang, and before Song Xiaofu could understand what was going on, he was picked up by the man like a chicken, and he screamed in fright.
Bai Rutang saw that the person was actually Du Sheng, and his heart suddenly cooled. If Song Xiaofu falls into Du Sheng's hands, then everything will be over. The weapon he used was originally a spear, and he was afraid of being eye-catching, so he didn't bring it with him this time, so he had to go to pull Song Xiaofu desperately.
Du Sheng raised a kick and kicked Bai Rutang upside down and flew out, hitting the door, and the whole door fell to the ground.
Song Ci stood up and exclaimed: "Frightened, frightened, what's wrong with you? What's wrong?" Seeing Bai Rutang lying on the ground, her mouth full of blood, frightened her feet weak. Bai Rutang shouted: "Little brother, don't take out the secret letter, otherwise...... I didn't ....... ...... my life" I felt a strange pain in my chest, and I fainted in a daze.
Song Xiaofu was surprised and said, "You...... What are you doing?"
Du Sheng said: "Quickly hand over the secret letter." β
Song Xiaofu saw that his words were calm, but his eyes showed a fierce light. I was bitter in my heart, and I didn't understand what secret letter Yang Renhai's friend would have to do with, and it was fierce, obviously not a good master. In fact, Du Sheng was also puzzled, how could the secret letter fall into Song Xiaofu's hands.
Du Sheng saw that Song Xiaofu was silent, thinking that he had listened to Bai Rutang's words and refused to hand over the letter. From last night's secret letter to now, he is anxious. At noon, Bai Rutang ran away, and when he returned to Yang's mansion, he was about to kill Dong Chengcheng, but fortunately, Yang Renhai grabbed him and said, "Brother Du, don't be angry, this matter is not over yet." Living a fair life is more useful than dying. Bai Rutang, no matter how cunning he is, he will show up. Don't worry, here, the old man can cover the sky with one hand. As soon as he showed up, he couldn't run anymore. Although Bai Rutang thought of Yang Renhai, he didn't dare to think deeply. In his thought that Du Sheng was an outsider, and the strong dragon did not suppress the head snake, he didn't expect Du Sheng to be so well-informed, and when he appeared carelessly, he was followed by Du Sheng's master and apprentice.
Du Sheng was anxious and angry, and he didn't dare to show his face, so he only tried his best to suppress it, and said softly: "Do you know who Bai Rutang is? You call Yang Dashan and call him uncle. Then you'll have to call me uncle. We met at the gate of Yang's Mansion last night, do you remember? You take out the secret letter, good children can't take other people's things. β
"Then, is that secret letter yours?" Song Xiaofu listened to Du Sheng's words, if the secret letter was still there, it would have been handed over to him a long time ago, he asked, but I hope that the secret letter is not Du Sheng's, then Du Sheng is embarrassed to blame him, obviously he didn't realize the seriousness of the matter all of a sudden. Du Shengxi said: "It's mine, you can bring it quickly." Uncle doesn't blame you, buy candy for you to eat. β
"That'...... The secret letter ...... "Song Xiaofu was speechless, not knowing how to tell him the truth.
Song Ci staggered out of the house, saw his life's hands grabbing Song Xiaofu's clothes behind his back, and said, "Why are you holding Xiaofu? Hey, it's ...... inside." Dead man......" Du Sheng was called by her, and he hurriedly let go of Song Xiaofu, and he didn't know what to hide for a while, so he only laughed dryly.
Song Xiaofu hugged Song Ci and asked, "...... him Is he dead?" Rao was always bold, but when he heard about human life, his legs were weak with fright.
Du Sheng said: "This person is extremely vicious, and he deserves death, you give me the secret letter." Behold, this silver is given to you. And he took out from his bosom a piece of silver weighing ten taels.
Song Ci's face turned pale with fright, and said: "Scare Fu, don't take other people's money, don't take other people's things, there are dead people in the house, dead people, what can we do to scare Fu? Your father hasn't come back yet, when is it." Dead man, let's go and report to the official......"
Song Ci was very nervous and incoherent.
Du Sheng was on fire and pulled Song Xiaofu over.
Song Ci was cold and fell down.
Maybe it was because the secret letter was too important, and he, who had always been calm and composed, was getting annoyed.
Song Xiaofu shouted: "Mother, mother, what's wrong with you?" was pulled by Du Sheng, but he couldn't get by.
Du Sheng said: "Hurry up and hand over the secret letter, and the old man will let you go." β
"Let go of me, let go of me, you bad guy. Song Xiaofu swung his fist and hit Du Sheng without a head or a brain. Du Sheng grabbed Song Xiaofu's small hand and shook it gently, almost crushing his bones, Song Xiaofu grinned in pain, and his other hand was weak. Du Sheng said: "You give me the secret letter." You and Yang Jineng are good friends, the old man will not hurt you, and he will give you the silver, if you don't think it's enough, give it to you more, the child is obedient, quickly take out the secret letter. Where did you put the secret letter?"
Song Ciwei stood up tremblingly, grabbed Du Sheng's hand, and said, "Let me go, let go of the frightened fu." Du Shengna had time to listen to him shake his rambling hand and said, "Get out." β
Song Ci couldn't help but be weak, how could he stand it?
A little girl rushed over from outside the courtyard and said urgently: "Aunt Song, Aunt Song ......" This little girl is Chen Wanxia, who often plays with Song Xiaofu. Her home is at the foot of the hill opposite. Because of Song Ci's ingenuity and vivid embroidery, Chen Wanxia has followed her to learn this needlework since she was a child. That afternoon, she helped her parents do some chores and came over.
Lin Feiyang, who was hiding in the shadows, appeared from afar and stopped Chen Wanxia. Chen Wanxia hurriedly said: "Go away, I want to see Aunt Song." Song Xiaofu shouted: "Sunset, go quickly, go quickly, they are bad people." β
Du Sheng said: "Yang'er, don't let that little girl make trouble." β
Lin Feiyang stretched out his finger a little, and Chen Wanxia fell to the ground softly and passed out. Song Xiaofu was shocked and shouted: "Sunset, sunset......"
Du Sheng said: "Don't scream, take out the secret letter, and the old man will wake up your partner." β
Song Ci fell not lightly, he couldn't get up for a while, and his voice had become weak: "Frightened, what did you take, return it to others, ...... Let's not mess with ......."
Song Xiaofu had already prepared to tell Du Sheng about the secret letter falling into the pit. can see that he killed Bai Rutang at every turn (in fact, Bai Rutang only fainted), and he was like this to his mother, knowing that if he told Du Sheng the truth, his life would not be guaranteed (at this time, he already believed Bai Rutang's words before he fainted). At the same time, he knew that the secret letter was very important, and he also knew whether he was alive or dead, so he counted on the secret letter, and said: "If you let my mother and the sunset go, I will tell you." "He is young, although he is guided by Bai Rutang, but in this situation, it is really rare to be so calm.
Du Sheng hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, I promise you not to hurt them." Yang'er quickly unraveled the little girl's acupoint. β
Lin Feiyang pushed behind Chen Wanxia's back a few times, and Chen Wanxia woke up slowly. Song Xiaofu said happily: "Sunset, you are awake." Help my mother up and bring her to your house. Chen Wanxia helped Song Ci up and said, "Brother Xiaofu, what about you?"
Du Sheng said: "You quickly take out the secret letter, and you can ...... with them."
Song Xiaofu said: "I'll ...... the secret letter Hidden in a very secret place, you let me go, I took it and handed it to Uncle Yang. He played a little trick again.
Du Sheng said: "You take me to get it." β
ββ¦β¦ Okay, I'll take you. Song Xiaofu didn't expect that the secret letter that he picked up casually on the road would bring him fatal trouble. He couldn't drag down his mother and Chen Wanxia, and now he had to use this method to support Du Sheng's master and apprentice.
How can Song Ci rest assured that Song Xiaofu will go with Du Sheng? said: "You let my son go, I burn incense and worship the Buddha to bless you every day, please, lord, let me go, beg lord." "Get down on your knees. Desperately kowtow to Du Sheng.
Du Sheng didn't want to change again, and said, "Old lady, don't be verbose here." When he returns the secret letter, the old man will never be difficult for you. β
Song Ci just kowtowed, and his mouth repeated: "Please, lord, please......"
Song Xiaofu saw that his mother's forehead was bleeding on the bluestone slab, Du Sheng was still indifferent, his heart was full of blood, and he didn't know where he got the courage to kick Du Sheng.
Du Shengwei praised the rivers and lakes, and no one dared to be rude to him. Today, he repeatedly tolerated Song Xiaofu, and he really felt sorry in his heart, Song Xiaofu kicked him on his thigh like scratching an itch, but he provoked him to be fierce, threw Song Xiaofu on the ground, and said: "Lao Tzu killed you stinky boy today." A palm came towards Song Xiaofu. Song Ci hugged Song Xiaofu and cried: "Son!"
Lin Feiyang saw that the master actually used the "cold ice poison palm", and exclaimed: "Master, be merciful." Du Sheng also secretly regretted that the "Cold Ice Poison Palm" is the most yin, coldest and most poisonous palm in the world, and there is no salvation for the middle. Although he waved his hand casually, how could Song Xiaofu be a child? After killing Song Xiaofu, how could he get the secret letter back? But his hand was like electricity, and he couldn't take it back when he spit out his palm, and his heart turned around, and the palm wind had fallen on Song Ci.
Suddenly, Song Xiaofu intuitively felt that his mother's body was as stiff as ice, and he was so cold that his teeth chattered and he couldn't speak. When he saw his mother looking at him lovingly, he cried out in his heart: "Mother, mother......"
"Aunt Song, wake up, speak quickly, I still have to learn embroidery from you, my bird hasn't finished embroidering yet, Aunt Song, you speak......" Chen Wanxia shook Song Ci vigorously, but Song Ci couldn't move like a wood.
Song Xiaofu's eyes were blank, looking into the distance blankly, the care, love, and coquettishness of the past...... Flashed through his mind, but none of this would be there anymore...... His hands and feet were cold, and there seemed to be a cold and biting cold current swimming around in his body, eating away at his nerves, and it seemed that even the pain of losing his loved ones was gradually goneγγγγγγ
