Chapter 197: Three Shots
The sledgehammer really came, not a sneak attack at night, but in the afternoon of the same day, he came to the door openly, pushed the door directly into the courtyard, looked around, and said loudly: "Anti-thief Gao Qingcao, come out." ”
Xiaocao was practicing the fire god technique in his house, and when he heard the cry, he was happy and angry, and rushed out with an arrow, and found that there were seven or eight people standing in the courtyard, but there was no big hammer that made a sound.
Hu Guiyang walked out of the other room and stretched, "Who's yelling?" ”
"Me. Captain Hu, this matter has nothing to do with you today, please get out of the way. A sledgehammer squeezed out between the two, he was short and had been held back.
Xiaocao reached out and held the head of the gun, and glanced at the side, Hu Guiyang happened to be looking at her, and he didn't mean to stop it at all, but was asking her for advice.
Xiaocao let go of the hand holding the gun and nodded very lightly to Hu Guiyang, indicating that he could wait a little longer.
Hu Guiyang took a few steps forward, glanced at the latter, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be an iron sledgehammer, how can you have time to come to the door today?" ”
The big hammer was stunned for a moment, and then he was furious, "The big hammer, my name is the big hammer." ”
"Sorry, I made a mistake, what should I call it? Big brother, iron history, hammer brother? ”
The two have met a few times, and there has been a fight in Mojiazhuang, Hu Guiyang has never been so polite, the big hammer was stunned again, and he hugged his fists and said: "Captain Hu doesn't have to be polite, just call me the big hammer." Nothing to do, we are here today to arrest the thief Gao Qingcao. ”
"She?" Hu Guiyang pointed to Xiaocao.
"Yes, Captain Hu doesn't need to defend himself, everyone knows the origin of Gao Qingcao."
"I don't defend myself, I just want to ask clearly, in what capacity do you catch the thief?"
"Well, of course it's officers and soldiers, we have been in the army for a long time, wearing military uniforms, you already know."
"Officers and soldiers are different from officers and soldiers, the patrol battalion can arrest people, but the officers and soldiers of the guard post cannot."
"She is a thief in the mountains, and everyone can catch her."
"It's worthy of a sledgehammer, what a big breath, the court didn't say that the mountain people are all anti-thieves, you just say that she is a thief, what about the evidence? Don't mention the evidence, since you came to arrest people and sign tickets? What about Kumon? Who told you to arrest people? If you don't mention the ticket, what do you want to do after you arrest someone? Will they be killed on the spot, or will they be escorted back to the yamen for interrogation? Who is in charge of the punishment, who is the interrogator, and who is the transcript? Don't mention all of this, you ......" Hu Guiyang really couldn't think of what to say, "Can you beat her?" ”
Although the sledgehammer is said to be from a military family, but he has never entered the military camp, he has been mixed with the heroes of the rivers and lakes since he was a child, how can he know how to arrest people and pay so much attention to it, he stayed for a while, and said: "Our identity today is not an officer and soldier, but a righteous and chivalrous people, knowing that the thief is hiding here, if you want to arrest her and send her to the government, you can always do it." If she is willing to be captured, she can avoid a sword fight, and if she refuses, the dead must also be taken away. ”
"You're not officers and soldiers?"
Sledgehammer was a little vague and glanced back at his companion, "Not for now." ”
"Okay, you're not an officer or soldier, and I'm not a lieutenant." Hu Guiyang only had boots left on his body to represent his identity, took them off twice, put them aside, and stood barefoot.
The sledgehammer also took off his helmet and armor, leaving a tight coat, but he refused to take off his boots, "Capture the thief and send it to the government, we are considered righteous and brave." Hu Guiyang, since you are willing to stand up for the thief as a common man, there is nothing to say, let's fight first, the victory or defeat is up to you, life and death are up to you, if you lose, ......"
"Stop, who said I'm going to do it with you?"
"You ......" Sledgehammer was stunned again.
Hu Guiyang turned around and went back to the house, quickly brought a stool out, put it at the door, and sat on it, "I am the captain of Xichang, watching the people fight without stopping it, it is unseemly, now it's okay, I'm a barefoot people, you are both sides of the fight, I just watch the excitement." ”
Xiaocao stepped forward, holding the head of the gun in his hand, "Sledgehammer, I've been looking for you for a long time." ”
After talking for a long time, Hu Guiyang turned out to be just a bystander, the big hammer sneered, turned his head to glance at Xiaocao, and laughed again, "If you kill someone, you have to kill it cleanly, leaving you such a cub, it is a headache." Let's do it today, either you die or I die, and neither side can seek revenge. ”
He still said this to Hu Guiyang.
Xiaocao released a thin chain in his hand little by little, and said flatly: "No one will avenge me." ”
"Hey, that's good." The sledgehammer was still looking to the other side.
Hu Guiyang raised his hands, "I promise I won't avenge her, what about those brothers of yours?" ”
Everyone behind the sledgehammer looked at each other, all of them smiling with disdain, and one of them spoke: "We just came to watch the battle, and by the way, we will be witnessed." This is a small grievance, and it is best to be able to settle it today. If the sledgehammer unfortunately dies here, we will carry the corpse and leave, and we will never say anything, let alone seek revenge again. ”
Seven or eight people retreated at the same time, giving up the place.
The yard is not big, and the sledgehammer also took a few steps back, stood at the other end, and finally faced the grass and tightened his belt, "I don't need weapons, lest people say that I bully the small with the big and the women with the man, and let you make three moves, let the horse come." ”
The big hammer has learned the fire god trick, served the golden pill, absorbed the essence, and his skills have improved by leaps and bounds, and he is no longer an ordinary hero when he begged for mercy in Mojiazhuang.
A few days ago, he had taught Xiaocao's chain gun outside the village, and he had no fear of her, the only thing he was afraid of was that Hu Guiyang would rely on the identity of the captain of Jinyi to embarrass him afterwards, and now that everything is said, he is more down-to-earth, looking Xiaocao up and down, and said with a smile: "Your sister is a famous glamorous female bandit, you are not bad, two years longer, I don't know how many heroes will be harmed, it's a pity, it's a pity." This can be regarded as removing a harm for the rivers and lakes in advance. ”
Xiaocao was about to put away the chain gun, but then changed his mind, held it in his hand and shook it gently in a circle, but there was no anger on his face, and asked, "Do you have a family?" ”
"What? Climb proximity? It's too late, Tie Ye has three wives and four concubines, and many brothers, so there is no place for you. ”
"Does anyone care if you live or die?"
The sledgehammer was stunned for a moment, and then he was furious, "Let you make three moves, you still have so much nonsense, if you want to fight, you will fight, if you don't kneel down and beg for mercy, maybe ......"
The chain gun came out of his hand, faster than lightning, like a stinging dragon that had burst out, but it was an honest dragon who had no intention of hurting people.
The head of the spear fell against the sledgehammer, and the whole thing sank into the ground, leaving only the chain exposed, and the grass held tightly in his hand.
The sledgehammer didn't dodge, because he didn't have time to react at all, and he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, but his face was silent, and his companions who watched the battle didn't see the horse's feet, and thought that the sledgehammer was calm.
"The first move." The big hammer said immediately, regretting the promise of humbling the three moves, and made up his mind in his heart that as long as Xiaocao made another move, he would return the move.
He repented quickly, Xiaocao's movements were faster, with a little force, he pulled out the head of the gun, and before he could withdraw his hand, he made another move, not one shot, but two shots in succession, and pierced two small holes in the ground, which stood three legs with the previous small holes, and just surrounded the big hammer in the middle.
The sledgehammer had no chance to fight back, and his face changed.
The brothers who watched the battle didn't know why, and one of them smiled and said: "The three moves have passed, and the big hammer is benevolent and righteous, and it is ready to make a move." Don't look at this as a little girl, she is ruthless and does not lose to Gao Hanying, and the sledgehammer does not have to show mercy. ”
The sledgehammer really wanted to shut up this man, and he felt scared in his heart, but he couldn't show it, so he stubbornly said: "I'm going to make a move, and I'm ready to take it." ”
Xiaocao wrapped the chain gun around her waist, and didn't even use a weapon, "Come on." ”
The sledgehammer has been famous for a long time, and it has been blessed by divine powers, no matter how afraid he is, he can't bow his head to a little girl, he roars, clenches his fists, puts on a posture, stomps his right foot on the ground, and gathers all his strength, ready to rush to the grass.
This stamped accident, the ground under his feet was weak, and his right foot actually sank in.
One of the spectators thought that the sledgehammer was too strong, and immediately shouted hello, but the others saw something unusual and did not speak.
Sledgehammer himself knew best what was going on, and although the courtyard here was not paved with masonry, the ground was tamped and quite hard, and after being poked three times by the grass, the small piece under his feet was shaken soft as powder.
He dispelled the last doubt in his heart, and finally understood that he was by no means an opponent, and this competition turned out to be self-defeating.
His right foot was still stuck in the ground, but he forgot to pull it out, he was already short, and then he was a little shorter, and his heart turned upside down, and he didn't know how to end it.
Xiaocao walked forward, and at this time everyone could see that the sledgehammer had been defeated before the battle, and they were all stunned and had nothing to say.
Hu Guiyang sat on the stool, curious about what Xiaocao was going to do next.
Xiaocao came to the sledgehammer, "You haven't answered my question yet: Does anyone in the family care about your life or death?" ”
The sledgehammer is not a hard bone, if there is a man opposite, such as Hu Guiyang, he will not hesitate to kneel down and beg for mercy, but for a little girl, he really can't afford to lose face, and said in a trembling voice: "Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu walks the rivers and lakes, makes brothers, and has no time to take care of his family, let me tell you the truth, I have no wife and no children, and I have long cut off contact with my relatives and friends, you can kill if you want to, don't worry that someone will avenge me." ”
"No wonder you don't blink when you kill people, it turns out that you don't know the pain of losing a loved one at all."
The sledgehammer suddenly saw a glimmer of life, and hurriedly changed his words: "I have a woman in the village, and she depends on me for support, and ...... I also have an old mother, although I haven't been in touch for many years, but I send people to send rice, noodles, clothes and money every year, if I die, they ...... They're going to be sad......"
Xiaocao smiled, "What about Yang Jiu?" Doesn't he care about your life or death? ”
"Old Monster Yang is not...... My relatives, but we have a good relationship, he, he is now a celebrity next to Li Xianchang, you know Li Xianchang, right? Able to speak in front of the emperor. Yes, if I am killed, Old Monster Yang will not sit idly by, and he will not directly seek revenge on you, but ......" The sledgehammer turned his head to look at Hu Guiyang.
"Good." After saying two words, Xiaocao slapped twice on the shoulder of the big hammer.
The ground under the sledgehammer's feet was soft, and he was slapped twice, and his legs were sunk in, and his mouth let out a pig-killing howl, "My legs! My leg! "It was the shoulders that were beaten, but the legs and feet were injured.
Xiaocao turned to the stunned spectators, "Go back and tell Yang Jiu to ask, if he comes before dawn tomorrow, there will be a turning point in this matter, if he doesn't come, the sledgehammer will die at his hands." Go ahead. ”
A few people turned and ran, but no one would stay behind to take care of the sledgehammer.
The screams continued, and Xiaocao walked towards Hu Guiyang and asked, "Did I do well?" ”
"I'm a little scared of you." Hu Guiyang smiled, thinking that Xiaocao was really Gao Hanying's sister, but he hadn't seen it before, "But you did a good job, if Yang Jiuwen still takes care of the reputation of the rivers and lakes, he will come tonight." ”
