Thousands of households are happy to welcome the spring, and thousands of families are delayed in laughing.

In the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the sky is snowing, the streets and alleys are white, and since the morning, cotton-like snowflakes have been dancing all over the sky, and they have not stopped.

The Xiaolong and Xiaohu brothers were busy pasting Spring Festival couplets, sweeping the room, washing lamb legs, cutting beef, soaking snake wine, and steaming flower buns according to Ma Chunhong's arrangement.

"Chunhong, this fried crispy meat is a delicate job, you should come," Xiaohu smiled and came to Ma Chunhong. Xiaolong was finishing pasting the Spring Festival couplets, looked at Xiaohu with a helpless look, and said: "Yes, this is done by a woman, Xiaohu can't do it, you still have to come." Ma Chunhong said impatiently while swallowing melon seeds: "Why hasn't the gold come yet?" I won't wait until it's time to eat, this girl, I don't know how to come early to help with some work. Seeing that his wife was about to get angry again, Xiaohu hurriedly explained for Jinzi: "Xu is Biyuntang is busy with something, okay, this job will wait for Jin Zi to come and leave it to her." ”

Xiaohu said and went to sweep the floor, Ma Chunhong stood up, clapped her hands, twisted and walked to the kitchen, and said in a weird manner: "Forget it, let's come by myself, this girl is really, seeing that she has no father and no mother, she is kind enough to ask her to come to the New Year, she is good, but like an ancestor, waiting to invite her to the table." ”

Ma Chunhong's words made the two brothers look at each other, extremely embarrassed, Xiaolong's brows were tightly locked, and there was a faint sense of ominousness in his heart.

As soon as Ma Chunhong's voice fell, there was a knock on the door, and Xiaohu, who was sweeping the floor, lifted the broom and went to open the door, "Hey! Brother Tiger, "Jin Zi is carrying a large bag and a small bag. Xiaohu said in surprise: "The gold is here, why do you still buy so many things?" Jin Zi took off his coat and kicked and said in a rough manner: "Today's New Year, I went to the street to buy these many things, so it was delayed, hehe! Come, the ground will be left for me to sweep, and Brother Tiger will rest and rest. Jin Zi put down the things he was carrying, snatched the broom in the hand of the tiger and was about to sweep the floor. Xiaolong walked over and suggested softly: "Jinzi, let Brother Hu sweep the floor, or help your sister-in-law go." Seeing that Xiaolong pointed into the kitchen with his hand, his expression was serious, as if he understood something, shrugged his shoulders, whispered "oh", handed the broom back to Xiaohu, and went straight to the kitchen.

"Hey, sister-in-law," Kaneko shouted happily from behind when she saw Chunhong frying crispy meat in the kitchen. Ma Chunhong knew from the noise that the gold had come, and secretly saw that the gold had brought so many gifts, and was secretly happy in her heart, just pretending not to know, and now seeing the gold coming to the kitchen to greet her, she turned around and smiled: "Yo, the gold is here!" Jin Zi said: "I bought a pair of embroidered shoes and a wool jacket with my sister-in-law, and when I was busy with my sister-in-law, I went to try whether it fits or not." Ma Chunhong was secretly happy when she heard this, but pretended to be calm and said: "Sister-in-law has shoes and clothes, don't waste money." Jin Zi said: "It's not wasted, my sister-in-law is so beautiful, she looks good in anything, I walk around the street, and I always feel that no matter what clothes I wear on my sister-in-law, it's a pity that I don't have so much money, otherwise I will buy them all, haha." Ma Chunhong scolded with a smile: "You girl is really good at making people happy, my sister-in-law is old, where can I talk about beauty." ”

Seeing Jin Zi and Ma Chunhong talking happily in the kitchen, the two brothers Tyrant Long and Tyrant Tiger also let out a long sigh, and finally could have a happy Chinese New Year's Eve.

The dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve was naturally rich, full of a large table, Tyrant Dragon, Tyrant, Ma Chunhong, Jin Zi sat around the dining table, Jin Zi poured a glass of Xie Cun Huadiao wine for each person, Ma Chunhong set up the dishes and chopsticks for everyone, although there were only four people, everyone chatted while eating, but it was also very lively.

"This year is the year of auspicious celebrations, in July, the imperial court in Heishuiyu big thief, captured Kou Shou Gao Yingxiang, his thirteen families seventy-two battalions and eighty-one anti-king army collapsed, since then the world is peaceful, all provinces, states and counties have been happy for three days, the prefect has long issued a notice, this year's Chinese New Year's Eve is different from previous years, to hold a special event for the whole people to have fun, I heard that the inside and outside of the palace are full of lights, the evening will be lively, after dinner we will go outside the palace to play," the tiger drank to the head of the head, proposed.

Jin Zi said: "Don't go, don't go, Gao Yingxiang is really a hero in the world, he was arrested and killed by the imperial court, all the heroes in the world regret it, what a joy!" Besides, I also passed by the government just now, and there was a scarlet couplet hanging on the gate, which read: 'My heart is very bitter for my people, and I have the great grace of the Holy Lord,' and I was angry when I saw it, these officials are all nonsense, hypocrisy, and want to enjoy themselves, what does it have to do with our ordinary people! ”

Xiaohu looked embarrassed when he heard this, and Ma Chunhong chuckled and said, "Jinzi, what you said is too good, but unfortunately some people are not happy to hear it." ”

Jin Ziqi said: "Who is not happy? ”

Xiaohu put down his chopsticks and said with a wry smile: "A few days ago, the director of the Mongolian Pavilion sent a message, saying that the yamen of Hanzhong Prefecture, prefecture and county should post couplets for the New Year, and the content should reflect the meaning of loyalty and love for the people, so that more than 20 gentlemen in the Mongolian Pavilion each wrote a couplet, and the one you saw was written by me." ”

Ma Chunhong put a piece of chicken in her mouth, and sneered while chewing: "Look at you, if you slapped the official's ass, not only could you not get half of your fame, but you were also beaten half to death by the young master of the official family, and it was not a shame!" ”

Xiaohu listened to the embarrassment even more, Jin Zi saw that the signs were wrong, and hurriedly relieved Xiaohu and said: "Brother Tiger is loyal, so he was bullied, Jin Zi is now following the master to practice his skills, and when I succeed in learning art, see who dares to bully Brother Tiger." ”

Xiaolong also played a round and said: "Come, let's drink, how about we get a few punches and kicks for us after dinner?"

Jin Zi smiled and said, "Brother Long commanded, Jin Zi didn't dare to disobey." ”

Ma Chunhong was surprised when she heard that Jin Zi actually learned martial arts, and asked in surprise: "Jinzi, one of your daughters still learns men to fight?" What is good if you hurt your hands and feet and cut your face? ”

Jin Zi smiled: "It's okay, I was injured when I practiced martial arts last month, and it didn't hurt, just rub it with the medicine that Brother Long bought for me." ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart.

"Last month?" When Ma Chunhong heard this, he glanced at Xiaolong, glanced at Jinzi again, and asked suspiciously: "Didn't Brother Long say that he couldn't get his salary all the time, how could he have money to buy medicine for Jinzi?" ”

Xiaolong said: "I heard that Jin Zi was injured last month, and I used to be injured often, so I knew some healing medicine, so I asked the foreman brother to pay 30 yuan in advance to buy some Tian Qi powder, bitter leaves, and andrographis for Jinzi. ”

Ma Chunhong was originally a narrow-minded and selfish woman, although this new house was all bought by Xiaolong to borrow money from Tian Ren, but Ma Chunhong did not have the slightest gratitude, but always felt that Xiaolong was a prisoner who came out to eat by himself, these are what he should do. Now listening to Jin Zi and Xiaolong's words, Ma Chunhong secretly thought: "Xiaolong usually always says that the foreman does not pay wages, but he can advance 30 yuan to buy medicine for Jinzi, I think it is all a lie to me, although he eats and drinks for nothing in my house, he spends the money on this dead girl, which is really angry." Ma Chunhong thought so, and couldn't help but feel a nameless anger in her heart.

There is a catastrophe in life that cannot be avoided, and disasters come from luck.

It should also be an accident, Ma Chunhong decided that Xiaolong's arm was turned out, and he was determined to knock on his tight spell, and he could no longer let him spend money on outsiders, so he asked angrily: "Brother, what are you going to do after the New Year?" Still going to work on the brick kiln? ”

Xiaolong just clinked glasses with his younger brother Xiaohu, listened to Ma Chunhong's question, drank the wine in one gulp, and replied: "This time, in order to ask for wages, I beat the foreman, and I have to find a job again after the year." ”

Ma Chunhong took the opportunity to start the topic: "It's best to change schools, you must explain to the foreman, the salary will be paid every month, otherwise you won't do it." ”

Xiaohu wanted to reach out to pick up vegetables, but when he heard his wife's words, he couldn't help but feel great, put down his chopsticks and sighed: "Alas! In these years, it is common for foremen and shopkeepers to be in arrears, and it is not easy to find a job to settle wages on time! ”

Xiaolong also felt the same way, and sighed: "Yes! ”

Ma Chunhong happened to be angry, and after listening to the words of the two brothers, she was even more annoyed, and said in a weird manner: "Then you can say directly to the foreman: 'I am single, I live in my brother's house, and my brother wants me to pay rent and food every month, if you don't pay my salary every month, where can I eat and live?'" Look what the foreman says! ”

Xiaolong and Jin Zi were shocked when they heard this.

Seeing that his wife Ma Chunhong was speaking so harshly, Xiaohu was very dissatisfied in his heart, and said: "Chunhong, my brother's affairs will be arranged by my brother, so don't worry about it." ”

Ma Chunhong said angrily: "What do you mean by worrying about it? How much do you pay me each month? Isn't it all about frugality to support this family? ”

The tiger is cowardly by nature, honest, usually does not dare to confront Ma Chunhong, but today is different, first, I have drunk a lot of wine, already drunk, much bolder, second, Ma Chunhong Chinese New Year's Eve is so unbearable, do not save the slightest face for his two brothers, it is really hateful, I saw the tiger standing up and slapping the table and scolding: "Ma Chunhong, this house is all bought by my brother, and my brother's wages are all handed over to you, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Laba Festival, you don't allow me to call my brother home for the festival, it's just Chinese New Year's Eve, You shrew won't let my brothers and sisters feel comfortable for a while? ”

Seeing that the tiger suddenly became angry, Jin Zi hurriedly got up to persuade him, but once a docile person started a fire, no one could persuade him, even himself.

Ma Chunhong had never been yelled at by her husband like this, and she couldn't accept her husband's "rudeness" at all, so she said: "You only have brother in your heart, he has been in prison for 18 years, why don't you go to live with him in the cell?" At that time, you pretended to be honest, but now that the thief prisoner has come out, you have a backer, and you are fierce? Well, since you said that the house belongs to thieves and prisoners, I don't live here, you brothers live, and I will go back to the broken house! ”

Ma Chunhong was about to rush out of the door as she spoke, but Xiaolong, who had been silent, stood up, grabbed Ma Chunhong, who was about to go out, and said: "Chunhong, this is your home, and it is me who should go." Xiaolong pulled Ma Chunhong back to his original seat and forcibly pressed it, although Ma Chunhong wanted to struggle, but where could he resist the strong and powerful Xiaolong, so he had to sit obediently at the dinner table.

Xiao Longfu held down Xiao Hu again, and said calmly: "Xiao Hu, listen to my brother, you are not allowed to quarrel with Chunhong, live a good life, my brother is gone." As soon as he reached the door, he turned back and shouted, "Go too, gold." ”

Jin Zi knew that it was inconvenient for him to stay here, and after listening to the words of the dragon, he silently followed.

At this time, Xiaohu sat motionless at the dinner table, looking at the back of his brother's departure, his heart was extremely desolate, and what flashed in his mind was the situation when the brothers climbed the mountain and played games together when their parents were alive more than 20 years ago; Before his parents died, he told his brother to take good care of himself, and the elder brother roamed the rivers and lakes alone to help him beat up the ruffians and hooligans; When the elder brother buys toys for himself when he has money, he eats and drinks with him; When he beat someone to death with a brick, his brother pushed himself away, took the brick to the government and surrendered, and went to prison for his guilt; My brother was exiled for thousands of miles, and he was reluctant to be separated from himself......

Seeing Xiaolong and Jin Zi go out, Ma Chunhong smiled coldly.

It's a pity that she doesn't know that misfortune and fortune are relied on, and blessing and misfortune are lurking.

Suddenly, the tiger suddenly overturned the table, like an angry tiger pounced on Ma Chunhong, Ma Chunhong was frightened by this sudden scene and screamed, instinctively wanted to dodge, but before he could run away, the furious fists and feet rained down on him. Ma Chunhong took a few punches, realized that unprecedented danger was coming magically, and quickly squatted on the ground, covered his head with both hands, bent his body, and let out a miserable cry from his mouth: "Ah...... Yes...... Ah......h

However, Xiaohu had no reason, and completely ignored Ma Chunhong's life and death, and just beat him fiercely.

Xiaolong, who had already walked out of the courtyard, heard the shouting and hurriedly ordered Jin Zi behind him: "You go back and have a look." Jin Zi said: "Forget Brother Long, don't be nosy, let's go." ”

Xiaolong saw that Jin Zi didn't want to go back, so he had to go back by himself, no matter what, the elder brother must persuade the younger brother and his wife, because the younger brother has a good life, and the elder brother can feel at ease.

Seeing that the dragon was going back, Jin Zi stopped him and said, "I'll go." ”

Xiaolong stood still in place, Jin Zi turned back and pushed the door in, tied the courtyard door, walked through the courtyard, entered the hall, and saw the tiger beating Ma Chunhong, Jin Zi was not in a hurry to persuade him, but closed the door and tied it, and then quietly leaned behind the door to watch the excitement coldly.

Xiao Long saw that Ma Chunhong was still screaming after Jin Zi entered the house, and guessed that Jin Zi failed to persuade Xiao Hu, so he had to go back to dissuade him in person, but the courtyard door had been bolted by Jinzi, and no matter how he knocked it, he couldn't open the door. Xiaolong secretly thought that he still had to go in by himself, so he turned over the wall and jumped in, but the door of the hall was also bolted, and Xiaolong had no choice but to stand outside and shout while banging on the door.

Ma Chunhong was originally a person who bullied the soft and feared evil, and felt that her husband could be bullied on weekdays, so she often insulted when she had nothing to do, and never thought that the sheep would become a wolf, and today her husband beat himself like crazy, which was really unexpected. Seeing the angry appearance of the tiger, Ma Chunhong suddenly lost his former prestige, and in order to survive, he had to deign to beg for mercy: "Don't fight, I don't dare anymore......"

Seeing that Ma Chunhong was beaten and her nose and face were swollen, and a lot of red blood flowed from her forehead, Jin Zi sneered with disdain, slowly walked over and pulled the tiger who was still beating Ma Chunhong, and persuaded: "Brother Tiger, don't beat your sister-in-law." "Xiaohu is willing to stop, he just wants to kill this woman who has bullied him for more than ten years, and he can't listen to Jinzi's persuasion at all.

As soon as Jin Zi saw that he would be killed if he continued like this, he immediately locked his back with a move, clasped the tiger's hands behind his back, and forcibly pulled the tiger away.

Xiaohu couldn't beat Ma Chunhong after being pulled away by the gold lock, but he still couldn't calm down, and shouted: "You stinky woman, I've put up with you for more than ten years, my brother took the crime of murder for me, and sat in prison for me for 18 years, you dare to humiliate him like this, I have to beat you to death today......

When Jin Zi heard this, he was shocked, and he used to only say that Xiaolong killed people and was imprisoned, but he turned out to be ......

Ma Chunhong saw that the tiger had been subdued by gold, trembling and crawled into the kitchen, Jin saw Ma Chunhong into the kitchen, so he relaxed the shackles of the tiger, after the tiger broke free and rushed into the kitchen, Jin was frightened, caught up and grabbed the collar of the tiger with one hand, stumbled under his legs, knocked the tiger down with a bang, and then held it down, turned his head and shouted to Ma Chunhong: "Sister-in-law, close the kitchen door." ”

Ma Chunhong was like a frightened bird, she had already messed up, and when she heard the shout of gold, she hurriedly bolted the kitchen door from the inside in a panic.

Jin Zi saw that Ma Chunhong bolted the door before letting the tiger go, and the tiger came to the kitchen and hit the door and didn't open it, turned around and complained to Jin Zi: "What are you stopping me from doing?" I have to kill this wicked woman today. Jin Zi said: "Are you crazy? Beat your sister-in-law to death, you have to die. Xiaohu said angrily: "My brother has been in prison for me for 18 years, and I will never allow anyone to humiliate my brother." ”

Seeing the surprise on Jinzi's face, Xiaohu said: "Eighteen years ago, I beat someone to death with a brick, and my brother pushed me away, and he took the brick to the government to surrender and go to prison for me." Xiaohu slammed the kitchen door as he spoke, looking like he had to kill Ma Chunhong.

Jin Zi felt that the situation was serious, and he couldn't stop the tiger no matter what, so he had to open the door of the hall and let in the dragon who was anxiously knocking on the door.

Xiaolong faintly heard Xiaohu talking about the previous sins outside the door, and after entering the house, Xiaohu forcibly pulled Xiaohu into his room, closed the door and blamed: "Are you confused? How can you tell what was before? Xiaohu shouted: "Say what you are afraid of, I will kill her today." The dragon shook the tiger and roared, "Why was I in prison in the first place? It's just to keep you from going to jail, and you can't go to jail without my permission, you know? ”

For the first time in his life, Xiaohu saw his brother angry at him, and he suddenly calmed down a lot, and the two brothers were relatively silent.

At this time, Jin Zi hurriedly pushed the door and entered: "Sister-in-law ran away." Xiaolong commanded: "You follow your sister-in-law, don't let your sister-in-law run away, I'll come right away." Xiaohu said to Jinzi: "Leave her alone, let her go." ”

The gold chased after him quickly.

Xiaolong warned Xiaohu: "Xiaohu, you give me a good listen, you can't bear today's things and have to endure it, Chunhong is not only snobbish, but also okay in other aspects, I'll chase her back, you have to beat her again, be careful I beat you." ”

Xiaolong took a towel and wiped the tears on Xiaohu's face, then gently hugged his brother again, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about brother, brother is full of friends in Hanzhong, and some are places to live, remember my brother's words, live a good life with Chunhong." ”

In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, families were reunited at home, and snow was increasing, so there was no one on the road.

"Sister-in-law, where are you going?" Gold shouted angrily. Ma Chunhong looked back and saw that there was only gold, so she stopped, although she didn't like gold very much, but she saved herself at a critical moment, Ma Chunhong was still grateful.

Jin Zi approached, Ma Chunhong said hatefully: "Have you seen Jinzi, the men in the world are completely ruthless and unrighteous, he was an orphan back then, my father and mother saw that he was pitiful and not only took him in, but also married me to him as a wife, today he actually took revenge and beat me to death, how can there be any husband and wife affection?" ”

Jin Zi persuaded: "Yes, Brother Tiger is too much, but Brother Long and Brother Tiger are brothers and sisters, and he is also angry for a while, so my sister-in-law will forgive him once." ”

"Forgive him?" Ma Chunhong sneered, "Didn't you listen to him, that person was not killed by Xiaolong twenty years ago, he was killed by Xiaohu, if you hadn't stopped him today, I would have been a dead man now, since he was forgetful, he didn't blame me for being righteous, I will go to the government to sue him, and let him kill Xiaohu to pay for his life." ”

When Ma Chunhong said this, her eyes showed a fierce light, which was very terrifying.

Jin Zi saw Ma Chunhong's face was frightened, and then noticed that she was holding a sharp knife for cutting meat in her hand, it turned out that after Ma Chunhong hid in the kitchen, she took a meat cleaver out of survival instinct, and later took advantage of the opportunity of Xiaolong to pull Xiaohu into the room, Ma Chunhong opened the kitchen door with a knife and ran out.

Jin Zi asked in surprise: "Sister-in-law, you are husband and wife!" ”

Ma Chunhong said: "Did you see that he treated me as a husband and wife today?" ”

Jin Zi realized something, and scolded hatefully: "Also, how can a man have no conscience like this!" ”

Ma Chunhong said: "You have to be careful when you marry in the future, don't be like your sister-in-law, marry a poor man, and follow him to suffer poverty for the rest of your life." ”

Jin Zi echoed: "Yes, the more incapable men in this world now, the more they love to be able to act in front of their wives, Brother Tiger is too disagreeable." ”

Ma Chunhong also scolded: "If he dares to beat me, I will want him to die." ”

Jin Zi said: "But the weather is so cold, you and I are thinly dressed, sister-in-law, you wait for me to go back and put on my coat, bring money and things, and I will accompany you to report to the official." ”

Ma Chunhong ran out in a hurry without wearing a coat, and at this time his mouth was so cold that his mouth was trembling, and he said: "It's okay, you go back and help me get a cotton coat for me, and then accompany me to the government, you just happen to be a witness, we will accuse him of murder together, accuse him of impostor, and let his brothers die without a place to be buried." ”

Ma Chunhong stood on the side of the road and waited, and Jin Zi ran back along the same road, and was encountering the dragon halfway through. Jin Zi told Ma Chunhong's plan to Xiaolong and said, "I think my sister-in-law is iron-hearted, Brother Long, you have to find a way to stop it quickly." ”

Xiaolong groaned, "She won't be so vicious!" ”

Jin Zi said: "I'm afraid that's the case!" ”

Xiaolong gritted his teeth and said: "If she is really so ruthless, I have no choice but to deny this brother and daughter-in-law." ”

Jin Zi chased Ma Chunhong along the road with the dragon, Ma Chunhong thought that Jin Zi really went back to get clothes and money, but he never thought that this dead girl would chase after him with Xiaolong, and then he knew that he had been fooled, cursed a few words secretly, and turned around to hide in the forest by the roadside.

It's a pity that Xiaolong found Ma Chunhong early, and strode away from the gold to chase into the forest, Ma Chunhong saw this and ran frantically towards the depths of the woods, she knew in her heart that Jin Zi must have told Xiaolong that he wanted to tell Xiaolong and Xiaohu's plan first, if he let him catch up with him, not only did the plan fail, but I am afraid that he would have to worry about his life.

The more Ma Chunhong ran, the more Xiaolong firmly believed that she would report Xiaohu, so the more urgent she chased, the heavier the killing machine became.

Ma Chunhong is a weak woman after all, and now it is freezing and snowy all over the ground, how can she run fast? Xiaolong walked like a fly, caught up with Ma Chunhong in a few steps, grabbed his collar and asked coldly, "Chunhong, where are you going?" ”

Ma Chunhong saw that Xiaolong's face was full of murderous anger, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak, and the knife in his hand shook a few times and fell into the snow.

Seeing that Ma Chunhong didn't speak, and seeing that she was still carrying a knife, Xiaolong believed that what Jin Zi said was true.

When it was concluded that Ma Chunhong had lost his husband and wife relationship with his younger brother Xiaohu, in order to protect his younger brother, Xiaolong felt that he had no choice but to kill her.

Xiaolong let go of Ma Chunhong, who was frightened and weakened, and silently picked up the cleaver on the ground, although his eyes were full of fierce light, he still hesitated. Ma Chunhong was trembling in the snow, and when he saw Xiaolong holding a knife in a daze, he thought to himself when he would wait if he didn't run at this time, so he suddenly got up and ran.

This run not only failed to escape, but strengthened the dragon's murderous intent.

Ma Chunhong ran less than ten steps before being caught up by Xiaolong, Xiaolong didn't say a word, grabbed his brother-in-law's shoulders from behind, twisted her, and stabbed her in the stomach.

Jin Zi hurriedly came, just in time to see the scene of Xiaolong killing, but he was not frightened, and went straight to Xiaolong and asked, "Brother Long, what now?" Xiaolong said expressionlessly: "What else can I do?" Outlaws. The two were silent for a while, and Xiaolong said again: "Jinzi, I'm leaving Hanzhong, you just follow Tian Ren, he will take good care of you, I only ask you for one thing, you go to the government tomorrow to report the case, just say that you saw me kill Ma Chunhong with your own eyes, don't affect Xiaohu in this matter." Jin Zi asked anxiously, "Where is Brother Long going?" Xiaolong's eyes were blank, and he muttered to himself: "The world is such a big place, where can I go?" ”

I don't know when the tiger also entered the forest, and saw Ma Chunhong falling in the snow, and the ground was covered with red blood, and he couldn't help but be surprised. Jin Zi said: "Sister-in-law is going to the government to report your murder case twenty years ago, Brother Long has no choice but to ......" Xiaohu heard this, slowly stepped forward and knelt in the snow to pick up Ma Chunhong's head, gently pulled away the messy hair covering his face, with tears in his eyes, he couldn't help but cry. Jin Zi hurriedly said: "Brother Hu, your cry has alarmed the government, and Brother Long will die." ”

The tiger was suddenly startled, stopped crying, and suddenly stood up and said to his brother: "Brother, you hurry up, take advantage of the fact that there is no one on the street in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, find a safe place in the distance, and then write to me." ”

Seeing that his younger brother was crying sadly, his eyes were full of tears, Xiaolong couldn't help but blame himself secretly, and asked, "Xiaohu, don't you blame my brother?" If you blame my brother, my brother won't run away, and my brother will turn himself in. ”

"No, no," Xiaohu said: "Brother, I don't blame you for this matter, I only blame Chunhong for being too snobbish, I can't blame anyone, you just go by yourself, and when this matter settles down, our brothers will meet again." ”

Xiaolong said sadly: "Calm down? How can it be so simple, I'm afraid that you and my brother will not meet in the future......"

The brothers were relatively speechless, miserable and miserable, and it was extremely sad for Jin Zi to watch it from the sidelines.

After a long time, Xiaohu broke the silence and urged: "No matter what, you have to leave quickly." Xiaohu knew that his brother had just been released from prison, and if he was arrested again for murder, he would definitely be beheaded.

Xiaolong reluctantly said to Xiaohu: "I will leave Hanzhong tonight, you will report to the official with Jin Zi tomorrow, and say that I killed Ma Chunhong, you can rest assured, you can't catch my brother quickly." The dragon glanced at the gold, smiled bitterly, and walked out of the garden step by step, disappearing into the snowflakes flying in the sky.

After Xiaolong left, Xiaohu sat in the snow with Ma Chunhong in his arms, and after a long time remembered that the gold was still standing in the snow, he hurriedly wiped his tears and said: "You go back to Biyun Hall, I will go to report to the official alone early tomorrow morning." Jin Zi said: "Brother Hu, I will go with you, but in any case, I have to wait until tomorrow to give Brother Long more time to leave Hanzhong safely." Xiaohu muttered, "Okay, since you insist on going, then let's go together." You go home first, I'll stay here for a while, and I'll come to the house to find you later. ”

Seeing that Jin Zi was still standing still, without the slightest intention of leaving, Xiao Hu shouted as if he had ordered: "Go!" ”

Jin Zi was also shivering from the cold at this time, and when he saw that Xiaohu insisted on going back first, he turned around and walked home.

Seeing Jin go away, Xiaohu touched Ma Chunhong's wound, and suddenly there were a lot of blood stains on his hands, and then wiped them all over his clothes with his hands, smeared the blood all over his body, and then picked up the knife that was thrown not far away, and walked slowly towards the mansion.

Jin Zi returned to Xiaohu's house, alone in the empty house in a daze, always worried about Xiaolong, and he didn't know where Brother Long had run, in case Xiaolong was caught, it would mean death.

Suddenly, Jin Zi found that the originally dark sky outside had been misty and shining, oh my God, a night has passed, why hasn't Brother Tiger come back?

When they ran to the forest, there was already a large group of people there, dozens of officials gathered around the murder scene, and there were many onlookers outside, all pointing and talking about something.

Seeing that the two old men were choking their wrists, Jin Zi leaned over and asked, "Uncle, what's going on?" One of the old men said, "Alas, the two of them quarreled in the thirties of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the wife ran out, and the husband drank too much wine, and killed his wife in a fit of anger, what a pity." ”

Gold was stunned!
