Chapter 17 How much do you know about the flowers?
Before the flames rose, in one of the most solemn rooms in the cottage, two men sat opposite each other, one with a rough mink coat and the other with a gloomy brocade coat and a smiling face.
"Brother Wu, now that people have been arrested, shouldn't you say a few kind words to that adult, to be honest, if there is food, meat and land, we brothers will not go to this mountain to do the business of robbing homes and houses."
The mink man was smiling and talking, one leg resting on a chair, a bit like a mountain carving.
As for Wu Zixu, who was sitting opposite him, he called his elder brother, his face was not very good at this time, and under the dim light of the oil lamp, his hands under the table were crossed and clenched into fists, obviously having something on his mind.
After a long time, just when the mink man was already a little impatient, he seemed to be out of his thousands of thoughts, stretched out his hand and tapped lightly on the table, and said, "Now is not the time, we have to wait until the Zhuan completely surrenders to us." But Brother Rong rest assured, this is a matter of time, now is the time to employ people, since the eldest brother has the heart to take refuge, the son will not despise you and so on. ”
"Wait?" The mink man named Rong Heng slapped his hand on the table, "I'll go and meet that Zhuan Zhu for a while, this person is known as the first butcher, but he is a pig killer, can't I slaughter him as well?!" ”
"In the child's heart, Brother Rong is naturally countless times higher than that Zhuzhu." Wu Zixu scolded secretly in his heart, but he still pulled Rong Heng with a smile on his face, and was about to say something, but he felt that there was a faint commotion outside, and it intensified, accompanied by a faint heat wave.
When he heard the shouts of the people outside, his and Rong Heng's faces changed at the same time.
The granary is on fire?!
"Isn't that going too far?" While observing the situation around him, he muttered to himself in a low voice.
Once the fire is lit, it is not so easy to extinguish, the phrase "be careful of the fire candle" is never a joke, once the granary burns in this weather, and when the fire is extinguished, what is left is not the fragrant grain in the pot, but a lump of black charcoal that chokes people with a mushy smell.
There is no food, this season, this cottage is afraid that few people can survive, if you want to survive, you have to go down the mountain to rob, and the villagers in this radius of several miles will suffer again.
These thoughts flashed through his mind, and when the benevolent and righteous Zhuzhu looked at Li Zhishi again, his gaze became a little more complicated.
Li Zhishi didn't notice that his companion began to be compassionate and compassionate, or even if he noticed it, he didn't want to pay too much attention to it.
To save people, this is the price, how can there be a good thing in the world that can have both fish and bear's paws, this is an orphan who has done wrong things in order to survive and has done good things Li Zhishi understands very thoroughly, in order to save people and cut off the way of life, this thing is extreme, but if it falls on any person, I am afraid that the same choice will be made in the end.
Everything is fate, I want to live, you are in my way, then I can only get rid of you.
Because of this and that, Li Zhishi didn't have too much communication along the way, all the conversations were just a look and a gesture, as for those thieves, they had long been attracted by the fire in the granary and went to put out the fire, and they were in a hurry, and they found that there were two shadows floating past them.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the opening of the "pocket" of the warehouse at the back of the cottage, which only allowed two people to pass side by side to get the belly of the mountain, so it was naturally impossible for two people to enter together, otherwise it would really be a turtle in the urn if they were guarded.
"Brother Zhuan, go in, I'm here to guard." After thinking about it, Li Zhishi still stopped and motioned for Zhuzhu to go in.
If there are guards inside, Zhuzhu is naturally the one who can solve it the fastest, and there is no possible link to win the trust.
When he entered, he extinguished the torches around him one by one, and then hid in the shadows that the moonlight could not shine on, and tightly grasped the fish intestine sword in his hand.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for a bright light to quickly approach from a distance, but a thief came over with a torch, and there was a little depression between his eyebrows.
"Of course you will be depressed, I thought that you could be praised for daring to fight the fire, but I didn't expect to be scolded and rushed back." Li Zhishi in the shadows saw all this in his eyes, and he understood what happened to the other party from the first time he saw it, obviously this thief did not distinguish the level of importance of the matter. However, being driven back so quickly also surprised Li Zhishi.
"Could it be that guy is in this stockade right now? Looks like we're already wary. Li Zhishi frowned, and then heard sparse footsteps from the other end of the warehouse.
And the sound of footsteps also reached the ears of the bandit at the same time!
"What people!"
It seemed that every bandit would shout such a sentence when he noticed movement, and he finally found that the fire that was originally lit around him was actually extinguished at some point.
Unfortunately, the bandit who had raised the torch forward to explore the path had no idea that a short sword would reach out from behind him, pass it over his shoulder, stop horizontally at his throat, and then wipe it down when he saw the appearance of the person on the other side and was about to shout loudly.
In an instant, blood gushed out.
Holding back the vomiting sensation that gushed from his abdomen, Li Zhishi saw Zhuan Zhu walking out of the narrow passage unharmed with the second daughter who had been caught.
"When the sun was about to go down, I saw Li'er go out to wash clothes, and then remembered what Brother Li said, so I followed, and found that the people hiding in the dark exchanged hands, and the other party had many people and took Li'er as a hostage, and I had no choice but to ......."
Hearing what the Tsumi clan said, everything tonight has come to light out. Li Zhishi glanced at the fence that was still a little scared behind the Jin Mei clan, since he knew that this girl was in danger in order to wash his clothes, he couldn't get angry anymore.
If he hadn't said that he was leaving, I'm afraid the other party wouldn't have rushed to wash his clothes when it was almost dark......
"It looks like this pot is the most suitable for me to carry......"
The exchange of information ended in a few words, and this is not the place to talk after all. But the purpose of this trip was achieved so easily, so that Li Zhishi, who was originally confident, suddenly rose a shadow in his heart, "Even if you have mental calculations or no intentions, it is inevitably too simple......"
Murder and arson seem to be a big scene and difficult, but in fact, the operation is a smooth mess, and it is almost like sending a score question.
But even if he hasn't taken the college entrance examination, Li Zhishi also knows that the questions that look like sending points are likely to become propositions if he is not careful.
As soon as he thought of this, he looked at Zhuan Zhu, who was a little silent looking at the skyrocketing firelight, and said: "We'd better divide the troops into two ways, one way down the mountain with the injured sister-in-law and the fence, and the other way to make a mess in the cottage to attract attention." ”
After saying that, he smiled, a little helpless.
"Let me do the rest of the thing."
