Chapter 39: Safe Night
Yangzhou Mansion.
"There are two official brothers, thank you for the two official brothers."
Brother Xiong carried a heavy burden under the escort of the two officials, out of the official office, every few steps he turned around to the two official brothers, as a gesture, just because this kid is fat, when he is cute, very cute, the two officials are also very polite to him.
Today he has done a great deed, and he is the one who punishes the good.
After making a confession, Yang Sine let him leave, after all, his experience is indeed sympathetic, and he was not embarrassed, although the reputation of the Yang family has been hurt a little, but Yang Sine knows that Brother Xiong just wants to avenge his parents, and he does not mean to embarrass his Yang family, filial piety and courage are very good, you must know that filial piety is very respected in ancient times, so Yang Sine does not hate Brother Xiong, he just hates the old bald donkey.
Brother Xiong went out of the mansion, first raised his eyes to look at the sky, his fat face was full of happy smiles, and then walked around the city, bought some incense and candles, and then went in the direction of Tianji Temple.
Halfway up the hill behind his house, Brother Xiong knelt in front of the two graves, lit incense and candles, and inserted them in the soil in front of the graves, while crying, he said with a smile: "Father, mother, you can rest in peace, the child has finally helped you avenge." ”
He already talked a lot, and he came here to visit his parents for a long time, so he was chattering, crying while telling his parents about the recent events and everything, and even Han Yi told his parents that he was not allowed to take Ono's shoulder.
"Oops!"
Suddenly, I heard a strange scream, "Fortunately, it's me hiding here, if it's someone else, then I will really be miserable by you." ”
I saw Han Yi and Ono walking out from the left and right.
"Brother Han, Ono."
Brother Xiong suddenly exclaimed happily.
Han Yi said angrily: "There are some things that you can say in your heart, and you can't say it out loud." ”
"I'm sorry, I'll remember later."
Brother Xiong scratched his head and laughed.
"Give!"
Han Yi and Ono handed over the wooden plank in their hands, "Let's use it first, and then get the stone when the time comes." ”
Brother Xiong looked at it, and the name of his father and mother was written on the wooden board, which were two tombstones!
Because Brother Xiong did not live in the village, when his parents died, no one helped him, unlike Han Yi, Yang Lin and others to help, he just had the strength to write, but he didn't know how to write, so there was no monument.
The fat boy was moved to tears again.
"Alright, alright, haven't you cried enough today?"
Han Yi hurriedly said.
When Brother Xiong heard this, he immediately looked forward and said, "Big brother, how am I doing today?" ”
Han Yi nodded and said, "Very good." ”
Ono nodded vigorously.
This is the truth, he didn't expect Brother Xiong to be so good.
"It's all good taught by you, big brother."
Brother Xiong listened to Han Yi's praise and looked very happy, hehe laughed, and there were tears on his fat face, which looked very funny.
Hey, this fat man still knows how to repay the favor! Han Yi said: "But you are too careless, and you don't even know that someone is following you." ”
Brother Xiong was shocked, "Who is following me?" ”
"Me!"
"Huh?"
Han Yi smiled: "I have been following you here from the government office, and you are not aware of it at all." ”
Brother Xiong was stunned and said, "Big brother, why are you following me?" ”
"Aren't I just afraid you'll be followed?" Of course, Han Yi cared about this guy, so he had been waiting in front of the yamen, but he didn't say anything in advance, and secretly followed him here.
"I'll pay attention to it in the future."
Brother Xiong nodded seriously.
Han Yi asked again: "By the way, have you been so scared to pee your pants when you went to the mansion?" ”
Brother Xiong shook his head and said, "I'm not afraid, it's not the first time I've gone back." ”
Oh yes, this kid has even done it. Han Yi nodded and smiled: "I'm really not as good as you in this experience." ”
Brother Xiong smiled, suddenly remembered something, hurriedly took off the burden, and said, "Then Yang Gong is also very good to me, and he gave me the same money." As he spoke, he took out a large copper coin, with a look of expectation flashing in his eyes, "Brother Han, Ono, you are so good to me, give me food, and help me avenge me, now that I have money, I invite you to have a good meal today, I don't know if you are willing to appreciate your face?" ”
It's not that he doesn't love money, it's just that in his mind, his friends are the most important, so although his whole belongings are always money, what he hopes most is to be able to establish a deeper relationship with Ono and Han Yi, from the side, he is also afraid that he will be abandoned by Han Yi and Ono, so he has money, so he quickly envelops Ono and Han Yi.
Didn't Han Yi understand his thoughts, and said, "Money has always been good for you?" Do you know, how much money they can copy from Tianji Temple today, it's just money, you don't need to be grateful, but don't worry, they eat meat, we also have soup to drink, you can give this meal to the Yang family today, another day, another day you invite again, then we will not be drunk and homeless. ”
Ono also nodded.
Brother Xiong nodded in response.
Han Yi glanced at the sky and said, "It's not early, let's set up your father's and mother's tombstones first, we still have a lot to do tonight." ”
"Oh."
The three of them worked together to quickly erect the wooden monument.
"Dad, mother, the child is leaving, but don't worry, Brother Han will take care of my ---。"
"Ahem, ahem."
Han Yi cried and laughed: "Why do I sound a little cautious when you say this, if I don't take good care of you, will your father and mother come to me in the middle of the night?" ”
Brother Xiong said, "Big brother, I'm quite good at taking care of it." ”
Indeed, he can gain weight by drinking water. Han Yi rolled his eyes and said, "I can be regarded as convinced of you." ”
After saying goodbye, the three of them went down the mountain, but as soon as they came to the bottom of the mountain, Ono suddenly looked behind.
Han Yi was surprised: "Ono, what's the matter?" ”
Ono frowned, looked behind him again, and then shook his head.
Han Yi also glanced back, and then said, "Let's go." ”
But after walking for a while, his eyes glanced behind him, and it was not until he was hundreds of paces away, and all around him was very empty, that he was sure that there was no one behind him, but he was suspicious
That night, the night was deep, it was almost the third watch, and the noisy Yangzhou City finally quieted down, and there were only occasional stars and candles inside and outside the city.
On a path in the back mountain of Tianji Temple, through the faint moonlight, two figures can be faintly seen, driving a donkey cart, slowly looking at Tianji Temple.
"Brother Han, why are you so sure that there is a lot of money hidden in Tianji Temple?"
"It's very simple, be a thief!"
"To be a thief?"
"Yes, after all, what the nine-light bald donkey is doing is doing something wrong, then he will definitely be weak-hearted, he will definitely worry that he will be exposed one day, and he is very cautious and cautious, especially in terms of money, so he will definitely keep a hand, this is just basic common sense."
"But the government has not already searched it, and if it hides the money, I am afraid that the government has already searched it."
"The government has always been very rigid in doing things, and their first goal must be to search the treasury, as long as they don't think that the Nine Lights Bald Donkey has hidden money, then they won't go to search in particular, so they give us a chance."
"Then we don't have to be in such a hurry, it's only been less than a day, what if someone finds out, or come back in a few days."
"No, we have to act tonight."
"Why?"
"At first, I am afraid that the old bald donkey has accomplices, and if there is, they will definitely find a way to transport the money away, but they will also be very jealous, and now the wind is tight, and they dare not come here. Second, with so many things happening today, the government may not be able to react for a while, but I can't guarantee that they won't think of this, and then they will most likely send someone to search again, so tonight seems to be the most dangerous, but it is also the safest night, once tonight passes, everything can happen. ”
While talking, the two came to the back of Tianji Temple.
But the two of them did not rush up the mountain, but stood at the bottom of the mountain and waited, and suddenly a figure fell from the sky, and Han Yi didn't even need to look at it, and knew that it was Ono.
"Ono!"
Brother Xiong was naturally very excited when he saw his friend.
Ono stepped forward and nodded a few times at Han Yi and Brother Xiong.
It turned out that after nightfall, Han Yi asked Ono to come here to check and see if there was anyone nearby, after all, Ono has a talent in this area that ordinary people don't have.
Sure enough, as he expected, on this night when the wind was at its tightest, no one dared to come here except them, because if you were seen, even if you came to chop wood, you might be considered a fellow party of the Nine Lights Divine Stick.
"Let's go."
The three of them found a path and headed up the mountain.
