Chapter 42: The Monk in the Crowd
Splash was stunned for a moment, I didn't expect this monk to be so simple, it seemed to be impatient, faintly felt that something was wrong, the knife in his hand was cut down, but he couldn't prevent a huge fire pliers poking out of the oblique stab, this fire tongs accurately clamped the neck of Splash Skin, and with a little luck, Splash Pi fell into a coma.
When Wugou got up from the ground, he saw a big man with a coarse cloth on his head standing at the mouth of the alley, carrying two soft bodies in his hands, and a tall and thin man like a bamboo pole appeared behind the big man, but there was a woman under his arm. ”
The tall and thin man beckoned to Wugou, pushed open a door on the side of the alley, and walked straight in.
This should be an unsightly half-hidden private prostitution kiln, although vulgar, or adhering to the city of Tokyo has always been prosperous, the small yard is deep in the grass and trees, although it is late autumn, a few clusters of chrysanthemums are blooming.
The big man kicked roughly on a small rockery, and the rockery immediately slid to the side, revealing a small hole for only one person to drill, and the thin man threw the woman into it casually, and then jumped down, and the big man also threw the two people in his hand in, and was about to jump down and was pulled by Wugou and said: "There are five of them!" ”
Dahan glanced at Wugou indifferently and said, "We also have five people!" After saying that, he jumped down, the hole was too small. It took the obese Wugou a long time to climb down.
The space under the bottom was not large, and after a few people went down, it was full, and the tall and thin man kicked the side wall again, and a big hole appeared there, and someone pulled the masonry from the big hole from the opposite side, and Wugou saw a large cellar.
There were many cages there, most of them were empty, and only three or five little teenagers were stuffed in cages with dull expressions, and among them was the teenager that Wugou wanted to rescue.
In the cellar stood two big men. Like a blacksmith, his head is wrapped in cloth. It seems that he is also from Shuzhong.
They released the child from the cage and said to Wugou: "You are responsible for returning the person to the father's mother, we will do the rest, the astrolabe does not allow you to take risks." ”
Wugou checked the condition of several children. Seeing that they are all right. He nodded and said, "Yes." I'm only going to be a burden to you, but I'd like to hear what Splash has to say, and I'd like to know who is doing the sin. ”
The tall and lanky man nodded. Let the child be sent to the ground, walk up to the unconscious Splash Pi, take out a bamboo skewer, and insert it neatly into the gap between Splash Pi's nails.
An inhuman howl echoed through the cellar......
The prankster woke up, pulled out the bamboo skewers inserted in the cracks of his fingernails, and looked at the people in front of him in horror.
"When you wake up, talk and tell everything you know, I have one hundred and eight bamboo sticks like this, and you can't get through it." The tall and thin man sat on a chair, put his foot on another splashy finger and crushed it on the ground, and when he saw that the splasher was also awake, he let people drag him outside, and then said to the trembling splashing leader: "Tell me quickly, if there is a word you say that does not match what the person outside said, I will use a bamboo stick." ”
The pranky man shook his head and said, "I don't know! ”
The blacksmith smiled: "Sure enough, it's a good man, Boss Yan, someone who dares to be hard-mouthed in front of you, Lao Tzu can be regarded as seeing one!" ”
The tall and thin Yan boss seemed to be enraged, and took a large handful of bamboo sticks and pounced on the splash head, and the sound made by the splash head was like a mother ape that had lost her cubs, and it was like a pig's neigh before she died.
Wugou quietly turned around, and the prankster at this time had no way to look.
It stands to reason that people will pass out as long as they are in pain for a certain amount of time, but the splashing head has a bamboo stick stuck in his eyeballs, but he can't pass out, and his whole body is like being baked on the stove.
Boss Yan turned his head to look at the woman who had woken up and shrunk in the corner: "He still needs to be in pain for a while before he can speak, or you will speak first?" ”
The woman screamed, "I'm just helping them find someone, the rest is none of my business, I don't know anything." ”
The blacksmith grabbed the woman by the collar and lifted her up, and for a while he shook it fiercely, and saw a lot of knives of all kinds fall out of the woman's clothes. The blacksmith ruffled the woman's hair, and seven or eight black needles fell out of it. Then he put his hand into the crotch of the woman's pants and rubbed it for a while, and with a force on his hand, a riding mat was pulled out, and out of nowhere two sharp needles fell, and finally he took off the woman's shoes, and pressed them a little inside the shoes, and two bright iron tongues came out.
The blacksmith shook his head, thought for a while and picked up the woman in front of him, and then said: "This outfit is worth a lot of money, brocade crossbow, cotton needle, skirt knife, plus six knives, you can see that you are a famous person, if it is not for the sneak attack of Lao Tzu, it may not be easy to take you down." ”
The woman covered her chest and said viciously, "Do you know who you have offended? If you quit now, I have the right to act as if nothing has happened, and everyone will think of it as a misunderstanding. ”
Boss Yan looked at the ploppy man whose screams had been lowered and said to the blacksmith: "This guy really doesn't know anything, the person in charge here should be this slick bitch." ”
The blacksmith looked at the sleek woman with interest and said, "Say it early, if your thin skin and tender flesh pass through the hands of Boss Yan, it won't be fun to be bloody and stabbed." ”
Boss Yan pulled out the bamboo sticks one by one from the splashing head, and every time he pulled one, the splashing head roared, which has become an instinctive reaction, when all the bamboo sticks were pulled out, the splashing head let out a long breath and there was no movement.
"Someone is buying people, a young man has eight yuan of money, and the cash is paid, if the quality is good, the price can be negotiated, we shipped away a batch of twelve, and got a hundred yuan, the news came out of the beggar gang, and when the person was handed over, it was a boat, as long as the person was sent to the dock of the detachment, put it in a black boat, and then took the silver from a box, so I don't know who the other party is, and I don't know how they transported these people."
"How much money is in the chest?"
"It's not much, it's only a hundred pieces of silver each time, and it's also the amount of the transaction."
Boss Yan took out a letter of silver from his arms and said, "This is the hundred yuan of silver you got, right?" ”
The woman closed her eyes regretfully and said: "This is the way to survive in the lower nine streams, since the uncle is skilled, the little woman recognizes it, and the money is taken away. ”
After listening to the woman's words, Wugou climbed into the cellar and took the five little boys who didn't know anything to the yamen of Kaifeng Mansion, he didn't believe that Kaifeng Mansion would not know that such a big thing had happened under his rule.
When Boss Yan saw that Wugou was gone, he smiled and said: "Gentlemen are actually one-legged thieves, and they haven't been bloody for more than two years, since they were sent out to let off steam, how can they collect troops if they are not happy......
Throwing away the bandit who had just broken his neck, he picked up the woman and went to the large cellar outside......
Wugou came out of Kaifeng Mansion when the sky was bright, after thinking about it, he walked towards the Great Xiangguo Temple, he found that he was actually very powerless in this matter, the surface of Tokyo City is peaceful, in fact, the water flow below is very turbulent, all kinds of forces are here to fight, converge, fight, and the people who die every day are not less than the people who die on the battlefield.
It's just that most of them are buried under the Yellow River or lotus pond, becoming silt or flower fertilizer, those splashes and the woman who fell into the hands of Kui Mu Wolf last night are impossible to live, Yun Zheng will not allow his underground forces to be exposed in broad daylight just because of a few missing teenagers, he knows better than others what a cold heart is under Yun Zheng's kind face, in this world, as long as there are few people who are heroes, none of them are good people.
Looking at the bustling Tokyo morning market and the bustling crowd, some happy, some frustrated, some flattering, and some arrogant, these expressions fully illustrate the gains and losses of Tokyoites yesterday and tonight.
Wugou habitually held his bowl, I don't know how long he walked, the bowl was still empty, there was no copper coin, no food, all the people looked indifferently at this monk who was in the tile city, they didn't know that this monk almost died last night in order to save a few young people who had never known each other.
Wugou smiled and walked through the crowd with his bowl, neither stopping to turn his fate to the people around him, nor letting indifference ruin his good mood, he did a very good thing last night, and that was enough, what did the world slander me, I just need to be satisfied, if I can have a hearty breakfast, it would be the best.
"Bang dang", a thing fell into his bowl, and after a closer look, he found that it was a red gold bracelet, who accidentally threw this thing away, Wugou smiled and picked up his bowl, hoping that the owner upstairs could take the bracelet. Wugou monks never want ill-gotten gains.
A little eunuch came down and saluted: "Master, this bracelet is a gift from my master, I just ask you to help my master say a word at the right time." ”
Wugou laughed and said: "A poor monk's words are worth a red gold bracelet? In that case, it will be too cheap to sell, take away your master's mundane things, and don't hinder the monk's practice! ”
After speaking, he poured the gold bracelet into the hand of the eunuch, and then still dragged the bowl and pan through the crowd, although hungry, but the whole body was refreshing, there seemed to be wind under the ribs, and the wide gray clothes fluttered, like a fairy man.
"Master, that monk is so rude that he dares not to ask for your reward!"
"It's not that he's unreasonable, it's that the palace is unreasonable, it's a pity that I missed such a fate, and if I want to ask him to help talk in the future, I'm afraid it will be very difficult. Forget it, let's go back to the palace, the color line I need has been matched with ......" (to be continued......
