Chapter 105: Seeing Through Life and Death I don't know what to say
When to kill, how to kill, Zhu Da did not answer, the two of them did not discuss, after saying that sentence, the two quietly watched the fire burn, adding firewood, grass and coal from time to time, until the old man burned to ashes.
After cooling down a little, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun gathered the incinerated ashes into a crockpot, and kowtowed a few times to the incinerated place, before getting on the horse and leaving, there may be something in the dark, Yuan Biao's mount was restless and mournful, and after it was completely incinerated, it was quiet.
After returning to the village, he found that all the elders in charge were waiting outside the village, and the first to greet him was Zhu Da's father, Zhu Shishi.
"Xiaoda, do you want to do a Dharma service, you can't let Master Yuan go like this." For people who grew up in the hinterland of Datong and have not experienced the baptism of blood and fire, it is difficult for them to understand this kind of disposition and practice of looking down on life and death, and they always feel that they must follow the rules.
"Dad, we're going to do this, Master Yuan's spirit in the sky must be annoyed, let's do it according to his last wishes!" Zhu Da replied indifferently.
Zhu Shishi frowned and was about to say more, but Deng Kai, who came from the side, grabbed him, shook his head and said, "You are not used to it, many people in the army do this, don't fight." ”
"Dad, I'll rush back with Qingyun today, everything is as usual here, and there is no need to toss any sacrifices." Juda was in no mood to explain.
At this point, everyone was not arguing, but Zhu Shishi and Li Zongqi left hurriedly, preparing to take things away for Zhu Da, and Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun did not urge, but followed everyone to the riverside new village.
It didn't take long for Zhu Shishi to walk out with a bag in his hand under the escort of Deng Kai and another strong man, his expression was cautious, everyone knew that the bag was not an ordinary thing, and some people speculated whether it was gold, silver and jewelry.
"Son, this money will be handed over to you, it was earned this month, you must be careful on the road." Zhu Shishi said worriedly, perhaps because of the agitated mood, the voice of the voice was not small, and everyone heard it.
Zhu Da nodded and took over the burden, he glanced around, many people paid attention to this side, there are living people, there are acquaintances, some people are curious, some people have unnatural expressions, and some people are talking in a low voice, what Zhu Da can probably guess, it is nothing more than that this riverside new village has made a lot of money, or how to be careless, don't you know that wealth is not exposed, and such a flamboyant and careless will cause trouble? Some people even showed a naked look of greed, there is no law in the countryside and villages, and this money must be obtained by those who can do it......
The reason why this is done is to put an end to the idea of someone hitting Baibao Village, after this side prospered, it naturally became the fat in the eyes of all forces, and the forces on the surface were balanced, but it was difficult to guarantee that those who secretly wanted to start, especially those outlaws who did not pay attention to the rules at all, the method used by Zhu Da was to take the money away openly, and it was difficult to be caught by others.
Blocking the road and robbing money or gathering crowds to loot can only be done when you have to find rules or make sure that the money is there, Zhu Da is like this, many people are not easy to start, it's not that they didn't follow Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun, but the end is often not good, if there are fewer people, they will be killed, and if there are more people, they can't keep up.
Put the silver money into the blanket, the horses have been fed, before getting on the horse, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun carefully checked the saddle bridles and weapons, Zhou Qingyun even carefully counted the arrows, when doing this, both of them were a little gloomy, because these are all skills taught by Yuan Biao.
The urn of ashes was carefully wrapped, and a hay pad was added, and then it was placed on the horse, and the residual warmth of the ashes had not yet dissipated.
"Dad, uncles, I'll go back to Zheng's family first, don't worry about anything, life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky, I have long thought about this truth very clearly."
After saying this, Zhu Da hugged his fists on the horse and signaled, beat the horse and left, Zhou Qingyun did not move with a gloomy face, and when they rode away, Zhu Da's father and everyone around him looked at each other, what Zhu Da said on the horse just now made everyone a little stunned, it shouldn't be said by people of this age, but it is so natural.
"At what age do you see through life and death? I'm afraid I haven't even touched a girl. Deng Kai pursed his lips and muttered, but after finishing speaking, he shook his head and said in a lower voice: "Could it be that there are too many people killed?" ”
"What are you talking about, Old Deng?"
"Nothing, nothing, I'm muttering to myself."
Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun didn't run wildly, but they didn't jog like a normal business trip, they didn't even run in one direction, the two of them stopped from time to time, and even turned to the roadside path, if they were seen, they would only feel that the two teenagers were playing around, but if someone followed behind, it would be exposed in this circle, the official road was naturally safe, those trails were all Zhu Da They were familiar with, and rashly following up would only be calculated.
However, this kind of irregular withdrawal of money and leaving is difficult to be judged and tracked, this time no one followed, after walking far away, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun were fixed on the official road to hurry, the sky is very dense, but the merchants and travelers on the official road are very calm, and even few people go to see it, these years, everyone is accustomed to it, the Mongolian ministries are on the side, and it is also a matter of the north side of the border wall, occasionally a small group breaks in, and then they dare not go deeper, if they are frightened again and again, the business is not done, and the days are still passing, so why bother.
"It's annoying." Zhou Qingyun glanced at the smoke in the sky, and said in a muffled voice, Zhu Da knew that his partner was not bothered by this.
It was already a little late when they left Baibao Village, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun did not go straight to Zheng Jiaji, but took a slight detour and went to a big car shop on the side of the official road, but this was the stronghold of Shengping Salt Stack back then, then the Yang family and Qin Xiucai did not turn their faces on the face after all, some resources can still be used interchangeably, and there are fundamental rules in such places, living here, I don't worry about being calculated, of course, I should be careful or be careful.
They are already familiar with the way here, and the room is contracted by them, which is a firewood room on the edge of the warehouse, which is better than secluded and safe, and there is a way to retreat.
After entering the house, according to the experience taught by Yuan Biao, first check the places that should be checked, for example, confirm whether anyone has been here through secret notes, for example, to see if there are any holes in the wall, etc., and only after checking them one by one, then pry open the two bricks under the bed, but the two bricks are hollowed out, and some gold and silver jewelry are wrapped in oil paper, which are all seized in the hunt, and many trophies are not concentrated in one place, they will be stored separately, and this is one of the strongholds.
"Did Master think of today, most of the things that exist everywhere have already been taken out?" Zhou Qingyun said when sorting out the gold and silver.
Zhu Da was silent for a moment before replying, "I thought I would die early, but I didn't expect it to be today." ”
After eating the cakes and pickles he brought with him, it was already dark, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun did not fall asleep together, but were on duty in shifts, according to their own judgment, about an hour and a half to rotate, which would make people very tired, but it was very safe, it was a matter of life and death, and it was comfortable to put it behind, this is also Yuan Biao's teaching, if you don't rest in a completely safe place, you must stay vigilant and not relax.
However, Deng Kai and Xu San were also very dissatisfied with Yuan Biao's request, saying that it was only used to do it at night on the grassland and flee for their lives in chaos, and it was a bit too much to abide by such strict rules in the hinterland.
Zhu Da asked Zhou Qingyun to sleep first, he picked up the knife and sat by the door, his left hand slowly slid from the handle to the scabbard, Zhu Da has formed a habit, this slow and monotonous action is his time unit, after counting how many times, Zhu Da will change shifts with Zhou Qingyun.
After the lights were blown out, the house was quiet, and after nightfall there were no guests at the roadside inn, and there were no pedestrians on the road, except for the cries of wild beasts and owls.
The breathing of the two people is very long, and it is very gentle, it is difficult to hear clearly in a slightly noisy environment, but Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun are very sensitive, similar sounds will be found quickly, they are already very familiar with each other, and when they hear such a breathing rhythm, they know that Zhou Qingyun is not asleep.
"Zhu Da, I've seen Zheng Yong many times, the next game is very stable, and he must know martial arts." After a moment of silence, Zhou Qingyun spoke.
"Lao Zheng invited a famous teacher for his son, and Zheng Yong himself has experienced a lot of fighting scenes, and he is not a weak hand." Zhu Da replied that compared to the people close to him, he knows more about all kinds of people around him, and Zhu Da is also very interested in the news that others think is insignificant, and Zheng Yong, as the head of Zheng Jiaji, knows more.
Zhou Qingyun on the kang was quiet for a while, and said sullenly: "Why did he act so ruthlessly, I saw the body of the murdered woman once, and the whole person was torn apart, it looked like it had been gnawed by a wolf, and there was a lot less meat. ”
"He's not a human, he's a brute!" Zhu Da has also seen the tragic scene depicted by Zhou Qingyun, of course he doesn't believe that it is a demon or a monster, and he feels that the beast can't do this, but there is still a bit of luck in his heart, thinking that there will be some beasts such as wolves or leopards doing this, but he is not familiar with it, but he didn't expect that it was really done by people, and it was so close to him, thinking about Zheng Yong to pick up and comfort the families of those victims, Zhu Da felt chills, someone can be cruel to this point, the so-called "human face and beast heart", it is really real!
The two of them couldn't be quiet, how could they be quiet after experiencing those things during the day, but the two of them didn't know how to tell their nostalgia for Yuan Biao, and they were too close, which made people overwhelmed.
Seeing that Zhou Qingyun didn't open his mouth over there, Zhu Da couldn't help but speak: "Zheng Yong is followed by guards when he goes in and out, and the Zheng family has a few good skills, this person is not easy to kill." ”
