Chapter 9: The Poison of Eating and Killing

Sun Anzu didn't die well? Dou Jiande sat in the room with a note, thinking carefully, who is this Li Wenyuan? Why do you have to tell yourself this? Is it a divisive ploy or is there really something else going on? Too many questions lingered in Dou Jiande's heart, it was getting late, Dou Jiande was tired of thinking, and he couldn't help but lie down on the table and fall asleep.

In a trance, he saw his friend Sun Anzu, leading a group of thieves to fight bravely against the officers and soldiers on the lake in Gaojibo, taking the lead. A cold arrow was shot not far away, and Dou Jiande wanted to make a reminder, but found that he couldn't make any sound, so he could only watch Sun Anzu be hit by an arrow in the chest, turn over and fall into the water. He was then salvaged from the water by the sailors of the same ship and sent back to the cottage.

The doctor in the village dealt with it, prescribed a prescription and said that he wanted to recuperate, and left. Several brothers who had followed Sun Anzu up the mountain at the beginning were like water on the side, and they also left after being taken care of by a woman next to them.

As soon as the picture turned, Sun Anzu had already woken up, but he was coughing violently, his face was red, and the woman on the side was patting Sun Anzu's back to help him calm down. Another doctor who had never seen him came to help Sun Anzu change the dressing, and as soon as the medicine cloth on the wound was lifted, pus flowed out, and the woman on the side covered her nose and came out. Seeing that only he and Sun Anzu were left in the room, the doctor leaned down and said a few words to Sun Anzu's side, and then left after treating the wound.

Dou Jiande saw Sun Anzu so painful and depressed, and sat on the side of Sun Anzu's bed with a sour heart, at this time, Sun Anzu no longer coughed, but breathed steadily, his face was ruddy, and it was the last moment to return to the light.

Dou Jiande saw Sun Anzu's eyes looking straight at him, as if he saw himself looking at himself. Sun Anzu slowly raised his arm, as if he was about to take Dou Jiande's hand, but he grabbed it and said to Dou Jiande: "Brother, I hate it so much, I regret it, I regret it, I regret that I shouldn't listen to my brother's good advice." After that, Sun Anzu didn't catch his breath, and went west.

Dou Jiande felt great sadness in his heart, for a while he only felt that his chest was suffocating, his heart ached, and he wanted to rub his chest to relieve the pain, but he heard the door open, and when he was about to look up to see who it was, he felt that the bed he was sitting on was suddenly gone, but he was falling towards the abyss of no land.

Dou Jiande was about to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead with his hand, only to realize that he was still holding the note in his hand, and at the moment he only felt that Sun Anzu's death had another hidden secret, and recalled what the doctor seemed to say in Sun Anzu's ear when he was dying, Sun Anzu finally looked at himself, and felt that this was definitely his brother's dream for him, and he wanted to tell himself that there was a grievance inside.

The night passed like this, and the next morning, Dou Jiande had just finished washing, and Zhang Jin said that he was waiting for Dou Jiande to have breakfast outside the door. Since Sun Anzu found him to be in charge of the sailors, in order to serve the public, he was entrusted with the position of the second chair, and then Sun Anzu suppurated, and after his death, Zhang Jin said that he took over the position of the head of Gaojibo under the support of everyone.

During the banquet, all the big and small heads were called to eat together, and by the way, they studied the plans for today's day. Dou Jiande looked at Zhang Jincheng and said that it was not awkward to give orders, but he couldn't say what was wrong. At this time, I heard Zhang Jin say to a leader named Sun Shuo:

"What did the second team of the sailors gain yesterday? What are your plans for today? ”

The one named Sun Shuo said: "If you go back to the big boss, the second team looted the official ship yesterday, and it was a grain ship transporting grain. Countless grains and rice were obtained, hundreds of officers and soldiers were captured and escorted, and according to the rules of the cottage, the officers headed by them were beheaded on the spot, and those who surrendered on their own initiative were all taken care of by weapons, and there was no trace of unkindness. Today, I heard that there are large ships patrolling the caucus to look for the caoyun ships that have not arrived on time, and we are going to hijack these ships to strengthen our own sailors. ”

Dou Jiande looked at the person who spoke, this person's name is Sun Shuo, he knows, he is a soldier beside him at the beginning, and he is also a little fellow of his own, so he hugged his fists and said to Zhang Jincheng: "Big boss, I first came to the cottage, and I was warmly received by you and your brothers. ”

Zhang Jin said that it was a cottage later, and at that time, Sun Anzu's team had expanded from 200 to thousands, and no one had mentioned the 200 sergeants sent by Dou Jiande at the beginning. At this time, seeing that Dou Jiande volunteered to go into battle to kill the enemy in person, especially when he called himself a big boss, he also had a sense of accomplishment in subduing the local heroes, and he did not doubt it at the moment, so he said:

"Okay, when the Jiande brothers first arrived at the cottage, they had to go into battle to kill the enemy in person, which is excellent. From now on, you will be the deputy of the second team of the Sailor Division, and the assistant team is Sun Shuo. ”

Dou Jiande was overjoyed when he saw that Zhang Jincheng agreed to his request, but he didn't dare to show the slightest expression on his face, stood up and clasped his fists with both hands and said to Zhang Jincheng: "Jiande takes the order." ”

After the banquet was dispersed, Dou Jiande went back to the house to get his own weapon, and after getting dressed, he found someone to ask for the location of the second team of the sailor, and then led his 200 brothers to find Sun Shuo.

Sun Shuo was discussing something with another person in a low voice at this time, and when he saw Dou Jiande coming, he said to the soldiers outside the door: "I want to discuss with the deputy and the sergeant major about today's troops, you wait for the good students to take care of it, don't let others in, otherwise if you leak the military aircraft, you can only come according to the rules of the cottage, and I can't protect you." ”

Then Sun Shuo closed the door with his backhand, turned around and bowed to Dou Jiande and said, "Brother Dou, why are you here, are your father, mother, and sister-in-law all right?" ”

Dou Jiande heard him ask about his family, and sighed and told Sun Shuo what happened to him. When Sun Shuo heard this, he also clenched his fists, and said with a bruised head: "I, Sun Shuo, also swear here, that one day I will slash this person to comfort the soul of the unjust deceased in the sky!" ”

Dou Jiande waved his hand and attacked the county guard, he didn't dare to think about it. He turned his hand to another person next to him and asked Sun Shuo, "Who is this?" ”

Sun Shuo looked at Dou Jiande and asked the person next to him, and then said, "Ah, it's such a big brother Dou." This person's name is Li Wenyuan, a native of Longxi, with outstanding archery skills, who can shoot candles on the other side of the boat at night in the water, because of his admiration for the reputation of the eldest brother, he stayed here with me in order to make friends with the eldest brother through my recommendation. ”

Dou Jiande was shocked when he heard that this person's name was Li Wenyuan, and he hurriedly grabbed Li Wenyuan's hand and said in a trembling voice: "My good brother, you also did it that night flying arrow?" ”

Li Wenyuan nodded and said: "The incident happened suddenly, and there is no better opportunity to communicate with the eldest brother in the future, so I made this decision, and I hope that the eldest brother will not be blamed." ”

Dou Jiande's heart was anxious, how could he care if Li Wenyuan had disturbed him that night, and hurriedly asked: "Don't say anything else, what did you mean when you said that my brother Sun Anzu was not a good end?" ”

Li Wenyuan took out a few pieces of paper from his arms and said, "Big brother, look at these, these are the recipes I brought out from Brother Sun's cook's house, and they are all the main foods that Brother Sun ate after he was injured. ”

Dou Jiande took a few pages and looked at it carefully, it was nothing more than a common cottage food, and he didn't see anything wrong with it. Then he raised his head and said to Li Wenyuan: "Brother, what do you mean?" ”

Li Wenyuan saw that Dou Jiande was puzzled, and only then did he realize that he was too anxious, and there seemed to be no more comprehensive medical works similar to the Compendium of Materia Medica in this era, so he said: "Brother Dou doesn't know, I once heard a doctor say that flying geese are domesticated for geese, and goose meat and mutton are never eaten for traumatized people on the grassland. Once ingested, the recovery of the wound is slow in the light case, and the suppuration of the wound in the severe case is unbearable. Because it will cause pus in the wound and will not heal for a long time, it is called a hair object. ”

Dou Jiande was also shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly picked up the recipe and looked at it again, in addition to the goose meat once every three days, there were also a lot of mutton and lotus seed porridge from Gaojibo Land.

Dou Jiande asked Li Wenyuan again: "What the doctor said, how much is in this recipe?" ”

Li Wenyuan pointed to the recipe again and said, "Brother Dou, these are all hair things, without exception. ”

Dou Jiande's face turned blue with anger, and he asked angrily: "What a vicious method of eating and killing, where is the cook now, I want to ask who instigated it!" ”

Sun Shuo shook his head and said, "Soon after Brother Sun's death, the cook's family also went to the water for no reason, and the family of three was buried in the fire. Just these few pages of paper were snatched out of the fire by the Wen Yuan brothers. ”

Walking on the water, also known as fire, is one of the many taboos in ancient times. Dou Jiande listened to it and said hatefully: "Damn, where is there such a coincidental thing, Sun Anzu just died here, and the person who obviously knows the inside story over there is dead?" Is this there to walk the water? This is simply killing people and destroying corpses! ”

"Yes, Brother Dou, Brother Wen Yuan saw that there was a problem with the recipe, so he saved this evidence." Speaking of this, Sun Shuo couldn't help but look at Li Wenyuan with strange eyes, and then said: "He also said that Brother Dou will definitely come here, so he has been by my side as a sergeant major." ”

Hearing that Li Wenyuan had already arrived here, and he insisted that he would come here too, he couldn't help but wonder: "Oh? How could Brother Wen Yuan be so sure that I would definitely come? ”

"Brother Dou doesn't know it himself? The world will be chaotic and the officials will rule the chaos first, and the world will be determined and the officials will be ruled first. How could Brother Dou's iron bones be tolerated by this dim ruler? You need to know that this gentleman and the villain are dripping water into hot oil, and the dripping water will die when it is boiling. Li Wenyuan smiled and said: "And after Brother Sun's death, Zhang Jincheng said that he would be buried in a low-key manner to Brother Sun's former henchmen, so as not to attract officials and soldiers to take advantage of the people's hearts to scatter and attack the mountain and ruin Brother Sun's hard work." ”

"This person is also a little leaky in his work, and the cottage is not in decline when it is handed over to this person." Dou Jiande groaned, suddenly seemed to think of something, and suddenly asked: "Did my brother Sun Anzu have a doctor outside the cottage to diagnose him before he died?" ”

Sun Shuo lowered his head and thought for a while and said: "Yes, at that time, Zhang Jin said that he had taken over the power of life and death in the cottage, but he had not yet served the public, and Brother Sun's subordinates could not listen to his orders, he was quite anxious to let his men go to Qinghe County under the mountain to kidnap a doctor, who is a famous local doctor, it is said that he has the ability to bring the dead back to life, no matter how many injuries, as long as there is still a breath to hang, he can be saved, nicknamed the living judge." ”

"Did my brother die on the day the doctor left?" Dou Jiande said.

"Yes, yes, how do you know, Brother Dou?" Sun Shuoqi said.

"Last night, when I was half asleep and half awake, my brother gave me a dream, and what I just said was all obtained from a dream." Dou Jiande said in a trembling voice.

"Huh? In other words, is there really a secret to Brother Sun's death? Sun Shuo lost his voice.

"Well, that's right." Dou Jiande affirmed.

"Actually, when Brother Sun died, the most direct benefit and the biggest benefit was the current big boss Zhang Jincheng." Li Wenyuan groaned.

"Let's not talk about anything else, if it is really Zhang Jin's claim, I should be in a situation of being monitored now, inconvenient to move, Sun Shuo is the original Anzu's subordinate, Zhang Jin said that he will also send someone to monitor, only Brother Wenyuan, you are the one who went up the mountain after Anzu's death, there is no background, Zhang Jincheng is the easiest person to ignore, tomorrow you go to Qinghe County under the mountain, ask who is the living judge, it is best to catch him back on the mountain, how about I wait for him to be tried for the first trial?" Dou Jiande lowered his head and pondered for a moment before saying what he thought.

"That's not a problem, I also want to find out the cause of Brother Sun's death, and there is nothing wrong with going on a trip. And I don't have a criminal record in the government, even if you don't say it, big brother, I'll go on a trip. The question is what reason I have to leave the cottage, of course, if I want to kidnap someone, I have to bring a few absolutely reliable brothers to help. Li Wenyuan said with a smile.

"That's no problem, tomorrow I will let the three brothers of my own guard accompany you, they are all death row inmates rescued by Brother Sun from death row, absolutely reliable. I'm giving you an order to go to Qinghe County to find out the whereabouts of the government's office, anyway, I haven't been to the county seat this month. Sun Shuo nodded and said.

"Brother Wenyuan, if the cause of my brother's death is found out, I, Dou Jiande, am willing to do everything I can to repay my brother's kindness." Dou Jiande said with a deep salute.

When Li Wenyuan was about to say something polite, the drumbeat of the expedition sounded, and he turned to say: "The official ship is coming, I don't know how we will deal with it this time." ”

"How to deal with it? The real sailor has already gone to sea to conquer Goguryeo, and there is no need to worry about the remaining stinky fish and rotten shrimp, so our brothers will work together to kill them first. Sun Shuo said with a smile.

The three of them led the second team of sailors out of the water gate of the cottage, and the Sunzi flags on the bow of the ship were all waving in the wind, and now only Sun Shuo's own team of boats was not replaced with Zhang Ziqi, in his own words, one day the dog officials who killed the Sui Dynasty would unload the Sunzi flag, and come back to spend the rest of their lives guarding the tomb of Sun Anzu.

Many times someone said to Zhang Jin that he wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of Sun Shuo, among which there were also Zhang Jincheng's own henchmen who said to them: "A person's mind is exposed is the best way to prevent it, if you are in addition to Sun Anzu's henchman Sun Shuo today, then others will hide their fangs, and when we are defenseless, they are giving us a fatal blow, and we can't prevent it." It's better to abandon it, and end up with a magnanimous reputation for buying bones, isn't it beautiful? If you are waiting for the eyes of the rats, you have to say more. ”
