Chapter 587: Eliminate Evil
Gou Yuanchang is sturdy and sturdy, and he is quite valued by Xu Blackhead, and he has not handed over the stolen goods since the beginning of this year, and is only responsible for supervising a group of little beggars to complete the task, Zhang Hao is very glad that he is his brother.
Gou Yuan simply dressed neatly, got up and pushed open the door.
It's only the end of August, and it's not too cold, but Zhang Hao still feels a gust of cold wind pouring in, and he shiveres from the cold.
After Gou Yuan left, Zhang Hao rubbed his aching thighs, and muttered in confusion: "I have to get out of here." ”
After Xu Heitou's task was raised to two hundred wen, he wanted to leave, and he had already thought about where to go, originally wanting to wait for the cold winter......
However, this sudden kick made him vigilant. Xu Heitou was not afraid of crippling them, and even threatened: If you cripple the beggars, you will have a richer harvest.
A few days ago, his feet were too painful, and Gou Yuan said that he would solve it with two hundred yuan, which dragged on until today.
"There are two days left, can Brother Yuan find eighty Wen?" Zhang Hao looked worried.
Accompanied by Gou Yuan, he went out alone, in case he was seen by the lame Xiaomao who lived nearby, he was determined to sue. Ever since that kid was lame, he likes to pick on the thorns of his friends, and when he sees himself kicked, he almost loses his joy in heaven.
"Forget it, let's wait for Brother Yuan to come back and discuss."
Zhang Hao sighed, looked sad, and lay down. However, he secretly made up his mind in his heart, even if Gou Yuan objected, he would leave.
He never thought about whether Gou Yuan would tell the truth, but his brother, there was still this trust.
"I don't know what kind of delicious food Brother Yuan can find." Looking at the dilapidated thatched hut, Zhang Hao muttered, but he thought in his heart, he has hundreds of dollars on his body, winter is coming soon, and he has an injury on his leg, can he go far?
The gangs in the slums here are the most complex, with several small gangs of all sizes, and Zhang Hao and Gou Yuan belong to one of the small gangs called the Qingzhu Gang.
Xu Heitou is a small leader of the Qingzhu Gang, of course, he can only call out in private, and he has to call Boss Xu on the scene.
Originally, Gou Yuan still had a little face in front of Xu Heitou, even if Zhang Hao couldn't complete the task, just a few words of persuasion. But recently, it is obvious that Lao Xu is too angry, and even Gou Yuan has been slapped several times.
When Zhang Hao was suffering from gains and losses, Gou Yuan pushed open the wooden door and said with a smile, "Huhu, good luck, get up and eat breakfast." ”
The soft sunlight outside the door pours into the earthen house.
"Brother Yuan, what's delicious today?" Zhang Hao hurriedly got up when he heard this, he naturally understood what it meant to be lucky, Zhang Luo's breakfast was nothing more than begging or stealing.
If you're unlucky, you'll have to spend copper money to buy it.
"Hey, four big steamed buns."
Zhang Hao's stomach was grumbling with hunger, grabbed the steaming white flour steamed bun in the lotus leaf bag, and stuffed it into his mouth.
After a steamed bun was put into his stomach, Zhang Hao remembered and asked, "Where did this steamed bun come from?" ”
"Huh, you know what? Today, the discipline officer actually put out an unprecedented relief, no matter who the poor people in the city are, they can go to receive a total of 10,000 copies, until they are finished, there are not only porridge and vegetables, but also this excellent white flour steamed bun. Gou Yuan smiled, "I met it early in the morning, I ate a meal, and then asked you for steamed buns to come back." ”
"Why is this 'Iron Rooster' suddenly so generous today?" Zhang Hao couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Gou Yuan's answer.
"There are a lot of strange things going on in the city today, let's go and see with me." Gou Yuan smiled mysteriously again and said, "Maybe if you take this trip, you will have eighty yuan." ”
Zhang Hao told Gou Yuan that he was very moved, and after eating the steamed buns, he had the strength on his body, so with the support of Gou Yuan, he went out of the earthen house and went to the city.
Entering the city, Zhang Hao didn't find anything too different, but the shed where the porridge was put was obviously more, and the food of the "Iron Rooster" family had been exhausted at this time, but the porridge shed of other families was still there, Zhang Hao ate a meal of porridge beautifully, and received twenty copper coins from another shed that gave money and goods to the poor, and was happy for a while.
"What a day it is?" Zhang Hao looked around and asked curiously, so many rich people who don't stop talking and scolding them beggars on weekdays have changed their sex, which actually makes him a little uncomfortable.
"Look at the heavens, what is that?" Gou Yuan smiled, pointed to the sky, and said.
Zhang Hao raised his head and looked in the direction Gou Yuan pointed, and saw a bright fiery red star with a little white tail in the blue sky.
"That's ...... Broom star? Zhang Hao was stunned.
"What nonsense! Be careful that the immortals hear the wrath, and a thunderbolt of fire extinguishes you. Gou Yuan said in a low voice, "That's the famous Qilin Immortal, the incarnation of Sun Hui and Sun Shangxian, 'Flying Fire Meteor'!" ”
"Sun Hui? The immortals who broke the soldiers and horses in the north in Xiangyang? Zhang Hao asked in surprise.
"Yes." Gou Yuan nodded, "It is said that one night he turned into this flying meteor, destroyed dozens of castles in the north, burned 100,000 people in the north, and the north had to retreat, and gave up all the land south of the Huai River to our Great Song Dynasty." ”
"That's amazing!" Zhang Hao stuck out his tongue. For Sun Hui's deeds, he had heard his grandfather tell him, and he also knew that his ancestor, the money-loving General Zhang Jun and General Zhang Da, had also been helped by Sun Hui and defeated the Jin soldiers, but the fact that Zhang Jun did it later was too disappointing to the world, and people didn't believe that Sun Hui would help him at all, and those past events were gradually forgotten.
"It is said that this immortal is like a fire, evil like hatred, and when he encounters a fire thunder that does bad things, he often incarnates as a flying fire meteor to patrol the land of Huainan, and when he encounters thieves or outlaws, he will shoot to extinguish, without mercy, it is the extinction of Huainan bandits, and the business travel is extremely peaceful." Gou Yuan said, "Not long ago, it was rumored that the immortals would patrol this area in the future, and if the people who had done evil and harmed the place in the past did not stop and turned to do good, he would take action to destroy them. ”
"I see." Zhang Hao understood, "I don't know if what this immortal said is effective, there are many evildoers in this city, I heard that the government has begun to collect grain again, if it is still collected with a big bucket as before, will he care?" That big fight is hated by everyone! ”
"Shall we go to the yamen that collects grain and take a look?" Gou Yuan saw that there were no servants passing by, and said to Zhang Hao in a low voice.
Zhang Hao nodded in agreement, so the two walked all the way to the place where the grain was collected.
When they got there, the two saw that the government had not yet started collecting grain today, and as they had seen before, the peasants who were waiting in line to deliver the grain had sad faces, and the officials and officials who collected the grain still looked vicious, and the grain collection was still used for the abominable fight.
