(620), and then slaughter thoughts
- If this kind of person is eyeing the case of the murder of the county keeper of Xiahe County, as long as there is a clue, it is very likely that he will do something to see the moon. And if Xiao Chung at this moment still holds on to yesterday's plan and is ready to abandon the knife and settle in Kyoto, he can completely avoid getting involved in this matter when he quickly thinks through something after seeing the dark horse.
But who told him to suddenly change his mind at this point?
If he wants to continue to be a charlatan in the future, he must dissociate himself from this matter. If he is entangled in this matter, even if he can finally get rid of the investigation of the government, it is likely that no one will be willing to be an intermediary for him in the future, and this matter will ruin his reputation.
So now he had to do something, not to help anyone, not to keep himself neutral, but to isolate himself from the matter completely.
This thing seems to be very simple, Xiao Chung has not done it before, but considering that the two parties he has to face today are not easy to mess with, one is the most powerful killer organization in the rivers and lakes, and the other is the killer weapon that the current emperor has collected in his sleeve, his hand to sharpen the knife can't help but start to tremble a little, I don't know if he is afraid, or because this knife has not been used for a long time, it is a little difficult to sharpen.
The sound of sharpening the knife lasted for a long time, and the more than one-foot-long bone cutting knife had completely sharpened off the rust on the knife body, and it was as smooth as a mirror, revealing the true color of high-quality iron. Xiao Chung glanced at the blade of the knife and felt satisfied, so he changed a whetstone and began to focus on sharpening the blade.
Generally speaking, a butcher should carry a complete set of knives when performing slaughter, and he should have different bloodletting, shaving, cutting and cutting bones. Xiao Chung was a skilled butcher before practicing medicine, of course he understands these common senses, but it is precisely because he is proficient in this way that he is not satisfied with the status quo and thinks of pioneering and innovating. With his current craft. Now he can slaughter an animal with a knife, and he can slaughter and cook a horse into a pile of meat pieces that he can't tell what kind of animal it is, but the set of knives that cut and treat the skin of a living person is extremely complete and delicate.
The set of knives used to heal the wounds was varied and exquisitely crafted, and as a healer, he was responsible for the patients he treated, and he could not desecrate the work, and the points of treatment that had been tried and determined could not be changed lightly because of his own preferences. And the slaughtering knife has now been reduced to a single one. It is not only that he does not like trouble, but also that he is confident in his slaughtering skills.
It's just that the workload of this matter today is a bit heavy, and he must be prepared to attack with a fine weapon, so as not to make a mistake with the curling blade.
Because he had been sharpening his knife for too long, the two daughters, who were used to taking a nap in the afternoon, were finally so noisy that they couldn't sleep, and walked out of the bedroom together, following the sound of rough sand grinding on the ear drums to Xiao Song's side.
The two little girls, one tall and one short, who did not look much like each other in terms of their faces, stared at their father in unison, and the youngest daughter looked at her with a blank look. The eldest daughter, after glancing at the knife in her father's hand, turned her gaze to the black horse in the yard that was standing obediently without the reins.
Xiao Chung nominally has two daughters, but in fact the eldest daughter is not his own. When his wife gave birth to her little daughter, Xiao Chung was still serving a prison sentence in the county government prison because he had treated a wounded person.
When Xiao Chung came out of the cell, his wife was already sick and dying under the double pressure of the neighbor's rumors and accusations and the family's hardship. Even after Xiao Chung was released from prison, he immediately began to recuperate for his wife. Nor could they keep her alive for a few more months.
It was also from that time that Xiao Chung's heart hardened in a cold place. A rough man lives with his immature daughter, although he is often troubled by trivial things. But he didn't think about it anymore. In addition to raising his daughter, Xiao Chung focused most of his energy on the matter of fine skills and knife techniques, but he was determined not to treat injuries and illnesses for ordinary people.
Except for the fact that he can exude some life-saving temperament as a doctor when he is in the treatment matters, the rest of the time he only has the image of being greedy and greedy.
The eldest daughter is the child that Xiao Chung picked up when he was collecting medicine in the mountains in the second year of becoming a rich slave, hiding in Nanshan and waiting for a new business to come to his door. The eldest daughter was a homeless child whose parents died early, and was bitten by a snake while walking on a mountain road, but fortunately she met Xiao Chung that day. And when she was saved, she begged to stay. is willing to be a slave for Xiao Song, just begging to have two meals during the day and a covered room to sleep in at night.
Xiao Chung didn't want to take her in. But in the process of allowing her to stay for a few days to recuperate, he found that although the girl was still only a child, she could take good care of his little daughter, who was only two years old at the time, so he was moved and agreed to her request.
It must be admitted that his eldest daughter, who was picked up, is very perceptive and has a very flexible brain, which may have something to do with her upbringing of losing her home at a young age and living a wandering life. Having lost a qiē to rely on, in order to survive, you have to fight for everything by yourself, and you need to be extra careful of the dangers around you. Three years ago, her eldest daughter, who was only six years old, was already so sharp-minded, and three years later, she was able to think about adult things at the age of nine.
Fortunately, this girl adheres to Xiao Chung's very pure loyalty and respect, otherwise her little adult's state of mind is really a few terrible factors.
Two years ago, in order to avoid trouble, Xiao Chung simply accepted the girl he picked up as his adopted daughter, as long as the adopted daughter didn't cause trouble for him, it wasn't that he couldn't get the spare money to raise an extra child.
In fact, this girl helped Xiao Chung a lot, that is, in the matter of raising her daughter, this girl did a very good and meticulous job everywhere. It's still easy for children to come into contact with! After being officially adopted by Xiao Song, the eldest daughter lived with the younger daughter and got along closely, and the eldest daughter gradually adapted to this kind of sojourn life and identity, and naturally settled down to be Xiao Song's father.
The eldest daughter has seen Xiao Chung holding a knife to cut the skin of others to heal the disease, and has long seen his method of slaughtering livestock, but the matter of curing diseases is common, and the slaughter of livestock has not been seen for a long time.
Otherwise, the butcher knife wouldn't have been covered with such a thick layer of rust.
But compared with being surprised to see her father-in-law suddenly pick up a butcher's knife, the eldest daughter was more surprised that her father-in-law Xiao Song seemed to be slaughtering a horse this time.
Xiao Chung has slaughtered chickens, sheep, pigs and cows, but it is the first time to slaughter a horse. Horses are raised to give people to walk, Xiao Chung himself does not have a horse, and even if the stranger who comes to the medicine house has a horse, he will definitely ride away when he leaves, but like today, the horse is left in the medicine house to be slaughtered, but the owner of the horse is nowhere to be found, which is also the first time the eldest daughter has seen it-
