Chapter 143: The same is the end of the world
Chihu also followed the man in black to step forward, he closed the wooden door of the broken temple, turned to the three people standing and said, "Let's go, the three bandits who tied up the young general of General Mo's mansion, don't you need me to do it again, hurry up, if you don't leave, it will be dawn." ”
Chihu looked at the stunned three people, and lifted the gold box with one hand, and then the three people were dumbfounded, seeing that he picked up the box full of gold so easily, presumably the strength was amazing, Du Ruo didn't want to do any more useless struggles, so he could only nod and follow, Zhang Hua and Zhang Cai secretly complained in their hearts, they knew that when the bandit ran away just now, the two of them also ran together, and now not only sixty taels of silver are gone, it is estimated that this little life will be gone.
Chihu threw the gold box into the carriage that was tied outside, and it happened that two soldiers from General Mo's Mansion happened to come over, and when they saw Chihu followed by three gray people, they suddenly understood, and the two soldiers clasped their fists at Chihu and said, "General Chihu, are these three bandits who kidnapped the young general?"
Chihu nodded, and then said to the two of them, "The two of you are riding in front, and I will sit in the back carriage and watch the three of them." The two soldiers nodded, Du Ruo and Zhang Hua Zhang Cai heard Chihu say this, they could only walk into the carriage one by one, Chihu followed and sat in, the two soldiers one left and one right, pumped the horse's buttocks, and the horse neighed and ran to the general's mansion in Chang'an City.
The four people sitting in the carriage had their own concerns, and no one spoke again, Zhang Hua's face was pale with fright in the temple just now, and now he saw the burly, martial arts and strong Red Tiger, thinking that this time he really couldn't run away.
Zhang Hua's hands couldn't help but tremble, Zhang Cai saw Zhang Hua with trembling hands, and saw that his face was bloodless, this little brother really made him suffer, he failed to be a good brother and protect his little brother, Zhang Cai grabbed Zhang Hua's hand, and the warm feeling was transmitted to Zhang Hua's hand, forget it, what are you afraid of, even if you go to the guillotine, you have his good brother to accompany him, and he will be his brother's little brother in the next life.
Du Ruo looked at Zhang Hua's scared appearance sitting next to him, thinking that he couldn't escape this time, just die, he had so many lives on his back, it was time to atone for his crimes, anyway, his father and aunt were dead, and he was also a lonely person, now that the Du family gang has also been disbanded, the court has wantonly suppressed bandits, and he can't be the leader of the bandits, what else can he do.
He found that he had really achieved nothing over the years, and he had done some things that had lost his conscience, and he blamed the boss for taking him away, if he hadn't taken him away, with his father and mother by his side, he would definitely be very happy now, he really hated the boss master, and his life was ruined by him.
"Red Tiger Leader, this is the silver I sold Bu Shao in exchange, a total of sixty taels of silver, and I will return it to you." Zhang Cai saw the carriage rushing to the general's mansion in Chang'an City step by step, thinking that his death was coming, but he was really unwilling to die like this, he was only sixteen this year, this good day had just begun, why did he have to go to see Lord Yama.
Chihu glanced at Zhang Cai, Zhang Hua also trembled and took out thirty taels of silver from his arms and handed it to Zhang Cai, Zhang Cai held a large pile of silver, Chihu opened the box under his feet, Zhang Cai put the silver in, the sound of silver touching gold sounded so pleasant in the past, but now this voice feels so heavy and sad.
"Red Tiger General, can you spare us once, my name is Zhang Cai, this is my little brother, named Zhang Hua, we are brothers, so let's do it, I will bear my sins, you just kill me, you leave my little brother with a life, our Zhang family is our two veins, you can leave one for our Zhang family, my father and aunt are dead, only the two of us are left, it doesn't matter if I die, my little brother is only fifteen years old this year, you can spare him, okay, please."
Zhang Cai's eyes turned red as he spoke, he folded his hands and kept bowing to Chihu, begging Chihu for mercy, Zhang Hua heard his brother say this, he immediately couldn't hold back, tears flowed down, and he choked up and said, "Brother, don't say that, I'm greedy and can't earn silver taels, I'm so useless, just kill me, brother, you live, live well for me, marry a daughter-in-law in the future, give birth to a big fat boy, but don't let our old Zhang family die!" ”
When Zhang Cai heard his younger brother Zhang Hua say this, he immediately patted him on the head and said loudly, "Don't talk nonsense here, you live well for your brother, don't you hear it!" Chihu looked at the two brothers with a handful of snot and tears, and said lightly, "Don't worry, don't let each other go, don't worry, you all have this chance to die, it's just an early and a late, but this morning or evening is not more than a few seconds, the executioner raised the knife and fell, and with a snap, the head fell, if you two are brothers, I can also help you arrange two executioners, and cut off your heads at the same time, so it's all right." ”
Chihu saw Zhang Hua and Zhang Cai, who stopped crying, and he gave a fatal blow to the two dumbfounded people, "In this way, when you go underground, you can take care of each other, right, I see that you have a deep brotherhood, you go underground, and tell Lord Yama, you two will still be brothers in the next life, how about it?"
When Zhang Hua and Zhang Cai heard Chihu say this, they originally thought that their brotherhood could still move this Chihu leader, but they didn't expect it to be in vain, the two of them opened their mouths and found that they couldn't say anything, Zhang Hua could only lean on his brother Zhang Cai's arms, sobbing quietly.
"Red Tiger General, you just let the two of them go, one is sixteen years old, the other is only fifteen years old, they used to be bandits in my Du family gang, cough, in fact, that's not a bandit, it's just doing chores in the back kitchen, cooking for us, compared to us, their hands are clean, not a drop of blood is stained, originally they didn't stay long in the Du family gang, this court suppressed bandits, I took them down the mountain, I heard that General Li Tong accepted bandits like us, and was about to go to General Li's door, this, Didn't you bump into the major general......"
Du Ruo saw Chihu frowning, and didn't interrupt his words, and saw Zhang Hua and Zhang Cai crying there in fear of death, thinking that just now in the temple, Zhang Hua and Zhang Cai not only spoke for him, but also helped him up when he fell, these two boys are still a little conscientious, so they thought of saying a few words for them.
"I asked the two of them to go down the mountain to deliver the letter, in fact, I already knew that they didn't want to be bandits, just Zhang Hua, I know that his wish is to be a soldier, I said that I want to go to General Li Tong's door, I saw him very happy, they, they ran away with Bu Shao, in essence, they did not participate in the matter of tying up the major general, so, the Red Tiger general, if they can leave a life, a life, plus along the way, we have food and drink, the first time to give the young general, I am still hungryBesides, if I knew that he was the major general of General Mo's Mansion, I would definitely not do this, I always thought that he was just the son of the county command. ”
Du Ruo touched the hand that was bitten by the cobra, the arm has been healed, but unfortunately in the end this life was not saved, he doesn't care, it's just a pity that the two teenagers, Zhang Hua and Zhang Cai looked at Du Ruo gratefully, the Red Tiger Leader will spare them is another matter, but after all, Du Da was in charge of helping him say good things, Du Ruo received their grateful eyes, he hurriedly turned his head to the side, seeing Zhang Hua and Zhang Cai crying, he felt uncomfortable, after all, he hurt them.
"Say, who else is in your family, now that the young general is safe, the general can still give you a whole corpse, I can help you bring a message, this is the last thing I can help you, your family in the province has been looking forward to you, which is good to break their thoughts."
Chihu looked at the three of them in a daze, and the three people sitting opposite Chihu heard Chihu say this, knowing that it was useless to say anything at this moment, this time they made too much mistake, and they actually tied up the young general of General Mo's mansion, it seems that there is really only one way to die.
"What family can I have, my father and aunt are dead, I was still taken captive by the old bandits, if it weren't for him, I wouldn't be a bandit, and no one would wait for me, and they would kill me happily." Du Ruo clasped his hands, lowered his head, and said softly.
Zhang Hua and Zhang Cai stopped crying, now it's useless to cry more, and crying a handful of snot and tears, embarrassing, Zhang Hua raised his head and said to his brother, "Brother, our father and aunt are also sick and dead, but we still have an uncle, and there are two sisters in my uncle's family, or let's bring a message to my uncle." ”
"Little brother, you are stupid, you brought a message to our uncle saying that we became bandits, and also tied up the young general of General Mo's mansion, and now we have been arrested, General Mo is going to behead us, you might as well not bring such a message, isn't this redundant to add sadness to my uncle and aunt? Forget it, let's do it, if you die, you die, we don't go back for many years, and now the world is chaotic, my uncle and aunt must know that we are dead, they are the big brother who harms people, and lied to us that the dart game has food and drink, and said that he is not a bandit, but just a dart, hey, forget it, this is our fate. ”
Zhang Cai sighed and said with emotion, when their father and aunt died, their two brothers were homeless, and the house was also washed down by the flood, they swore to come to this Yunjin City to have a good time, and there was an achievement and then return to their hometown, but they didn't expect to go for a few days and nights, hungry stomach growling, a big brother on the road saw them like this, lied to them that he was a dart game, and now there is a shortage of manpower, recruit them over.
They followed the big brother to climb up the cottage, originally puzzled, how the dart game was on the mountain, I didn't expect to climb to the cottage, the big brother threatened them that if they dared to run, they would kill them, they secretly ran several times, but the cottage was heavily guarded, and they failed to escape from the cottage, and finally Du Da took them down the mountain, it is estimated that this is fate, at the beginning of the uncle and aunt tried to keep it, they still insisted on coming out, the uncle and aunt's family was poor and could not open the pot, they really couldn't bear to add two more people to eat.
"Hey, yes, let's die, it's a pity, I heard my uncle and aunt say this year that Sister Chunchan is coming back for the New Year, I still want to see Sister Chunchan, Sister Chunchan has treated me very well since I was a child, and I can only go underground and bless Sister Chunchan every day." Zhang Hua also sighed deeply, listening to his uncle and aunt say that Sister Chunchan was a maid in a large family in Chang'an City, with food and clothing, but in the end, it was the work of serving people, he died, and he wanted to bless Sister Chunchan underground to marry a good family, and she didn't have to serve her master anymore.
