Chapter 18 Save Wu Rongzi
Qu Hao slept well in the farmhouse. I woke up the next day feeling energized, and the tiredness of these days was swept away.
After breakfast, he asked the farmer about the location of the cattle and horse market, and then said goodbye to the owner and went to buy horses.
It was still early, there were few pedestrians on the road, and the smoke from the cooking smoke rising from the farmhouse was quickly blown away by the wind, and the fields that had already harvested the autumn grain were covered with a layer of white frost, making the bleak autumn more cool.
Suddenly, two horses came speeding from the front and swept past Qu Hao, one of them holding a long knife, and the other rider carrying a child on his back. Qu Hao felt strange, why did he ride so fast, and how hard the child was bumping.
Qu Hao continued to walk forward and saw a person squatting on the ground crying in front of him, and there were blood stains on his body, obviously injured. Qu Hao stepped forward quickly, approached and was surprised that the person who was injured and crying was actually Wu Rong.
Qu Hao hurriedly helped Wu Rong up and asked; "Mr. Wu, what's wrong?"
Wu Rong raised his head and saw that it was Qu Hao, and replied, "Just now, two gangsters ransacked my house, killed my wife, and kidnapped my son. ”
Qu Hao said: "It's the two horsemen just now?" ”
Wu Rong nodded tearfully.
Qu Hao saw that it was only a few hundred meters away from Wu Rong's house, and thought that if he chased after him on a motorcycle, he might be able to catch up. So he said to Wu Rong: "Mr. Wu, don't worry, you have injuries on your body, go and clean up the wounds first, and then make plans." ”
Wu Rong nodded helplessly.
Seeing that he agreed to clean the wound first, Qu Hao hurriedly said goodbye and ran to the back of Wu Rong's house.
Qu Hao came to the haystack where the motorcycle was placed, and after pulling the motorcycle out of it, he increased the accelerator and chased in the direction of the two gangsters riding horses.
When Qu Hao's motorcycle passed by Wu Rong, Wu Rong was stunned when he saw Qu Hao riding on the motorcycle. Of course, Qu Hao knew what he was thinking at the moment, but the situation was urgent, and he couldn't care about it so much.
After chasing for a while, Qu Hao saw the two riders from a distance. He thought to himself that one of them was holding a long knife, and if he used a copper flute or a short sword, he stopped the motorcycle, took the sword out of the copper flute, and mounted it on the copper flute, so that it was a long sword of more than one meter, and then started the motorcycle again with the long sword to chase after him.
Because the two riders thought they had succeeded, the speed of riding the horse was not very fast at the moment, and Qu Hao chased after him after a while.
The two gangsters suddenly heard a strange sound behind them, and when they looked back, there was a person riding two monsters approaching quickly, and he was still holding a long sword that flashed with cold light, obviously taken aback, and came back to his senses to know that the comer was not good.
A rider wielding a long knife swept across with a backhand.
Qu Hao was mentally prepared and knew that the other party would come to this hand. If you use a sword to block, you may not be able to pull away this big sword, and the sword may be broken in two; In addition, there is a great risk in moving forward on this rough dirt road with one hand, and if you block the knife with your sword, you will form a thrust, and if you don't get it right, you will overturn and be injured.
Qu Hao saw that the rider had a knife movement, and immediately came to an emergency brake, because the speed had dropped at that time, the motorcycle stopped at once, and the tip of the knife flew in front of Qu Hao's eyes. When the man saw that he had not succeeded, the other man stopped again and hurriedly drove the horse to speed up and escape. Qu Hao jumped off the motorcycle, threw the sword in his hand as a javelin at the other party, only to hear a pop, and the double-edged sword was inserted from the back of the gangster, and he immediately fell off the horse.
Seeing this, the gangster carrying the child immediately sped up his horse.
Qu Hao stepped forward quickly and took out the bronze sword from the man, only to see that the man was already out of breath. Qu Hao returned to the motorcycle, started the motorcycle to chase after him, and it didn't take long to catch up with the gangster.
Qu Hao was worried about the safety of the child, followed the horse, and shouted to the man: "Listen, rider, dismount quickly, I can spare your life." ”
The horse rider neither answered nor stopped, just desperately drove the horse forward, Qu Hao saw that he shouted a few times and did not respond, so he had to speed up and overtake, and after the motorcycle was crossed on the road, because he was worried that the sword would hurt the child, Qu Hao inserted the sword into the copper flute, and waited for the horse to come over.
When the wicked man saw this, he immediately reined in the horse's rope and tried to stop the horse, but the horse's two front hooves were lifted up after the rope was strangled, and the horse's body stood up. Since the horses at that time were not equipped with stirrups, the people on the horses only relied on their legs to clamp the body of the horse, and it was not easy to control, and the gangster and the child were about to fall.
Qu Hao flew forward, jumped up and pulled the horse rope and flattened the horse, without waiting for the man's body to balance, he hugged the man and the child and pulled him off the horse.
Qu Hao stepped forward and used three points of force to knock the gangster on the head with a copper flute to knock him unconscious, and picked up the crying child from his back.
Qu Hao checked the child's condition and was relieved to find that the child was safe and sound.
Qu Hao also took off the cloth bag that the gangster wrapped the child, tied the child to his back, and was about to ride a motorcycle, when he suddenly thought that riding a motorcycle to Wu Rong's house would definitely be confirmed by outsiders who saw it, and if he didn't get it, he would implicate Wu Rong. And this gangster who is not dead may also become a witness to Wu Rong's collusion with the spies.
Qu Hao didn't stop doing anything, dragged the stunned gangster into the grass on the side of the road and killed him, then hid the motorcycle in the grass far away from the roadside, carefully remembered the location, and then rode the gangster's horse and walked back.
When passing by the corpse of the knife-wielding gangster, he saw that he had a big cloth bag tied to his body, and he tore it down and weighed it very heavily, obviously robbing Wu Rong's things, so he tied the bag around his waist, dragged his body into the grass, and threw the big knife in the grass, buried and erased the blood stains on the ground with soil, and drove away the horses that were still parked there.
When he arrived at Wu Rong's house, he saw that many people outside their house were busy building a greenhouse, Qu Hao understood that this was a mourning hall prepared for Wu Rong's wife, and remembered that her wife's voice and smile seemed to be still in front of him, Qu Hao sighed.
Qu Hao got off the horse, carried the child on his back and led the horse forward.
At this moment someone saw the child behind him, and cried out in surprise, and immediately someone ran to the gate to report the news, and someone came to take the reins of the horse.
After a while, Wu Rong rushed out with a large group of family members.
Wu Rong took the child off Qu Hao's back, and was so excited that he immediately knelt down to thank him, Qu Hao hurriedly supported him and said to him: "Mr. Wu, don't be like this, you just lost your wife, you have to mourn and change." ”
As he spoke, he handed over the cloth bag again: "This should be something that the gangsters robbed of your house." ”
Wu Rong said to Qu Hao: "Mr. Qu saved the dog and is a great benefactor of our family, this thing should be a little bit of gratitude to you, you must not refuse." ”
"No, you will lead me into injustice, and I will not accept it." Qu Hao excused himself, in his opinion, saving this child is the minimum morality, and if he doesn't make a move, he will have a troubled conscience for the rest of his life.
"Mr. Qu, if you don't accept it, our whole family will be unhappy." Wu Rong spoke earnestly and insisted on repaying his benefactor.
"Mr. Wu, we are also friends and brothers, saving the children of friends and brothers is not to repay and be grateful, but to be righteous, if I accept your things today, am I still a righteous person?" Qu Hao said.
When Wu Rong heard him say this, he couldn't insist anymore, so he invited Qu Hao into the house.
"Mr. Wu, I really have something important to do today, so it's inconvenient to disturb, so I will definitely visit next time." Qu Hao saw that their family was holding a funeral and refused.
Qu Hao knew that Wu Rong had seen him riding a motorcycle, and thought that he might be worried that the two gangsters would report him for colluding with the spies, so he said to Wu Rong suggestively: "Mr. Wu, those two gangsters are innocent of death, and they can't speak anymore." ”
When Wu Rong heard this, he understood and knew that Qu Hao had avenged himself, and he also sealed the mouth of the villain, and shed tears while making trouble.
Qu Hao walked into the mourning hall, worshiped Mrs. Wu seriously according to the etiquette he learned in the TV series, and then walked out.
Wu Rong walked over to stop Qu Hao, bowed deeply to Qu Hao, and said to him: "Mr. Qu, thank you for your great kindness, we will be brothers in the future, and anything you will do in the future will be my business." ”
Qu Hao was also very moved and said to him: "Yes, in the future, your family's affairs will also be my business." ”
After the ceremony, Qu Hao walked out of the mourning hall and rode away on the horse just now.
