Chapter 13: The Dead Who Broke the Peace

The early morning mist dispersed in the valley, adding a touch of mystery to the Xunjia Valley, like a fairyland in the clouds. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Fresh air is never lacking in ancient times, Xun Gang exposed a crack in the door, and when he saw that there was no one guarding, he immediately pushed the door out, took a deep breath, and felt happy.

On that planet that is extremely far away from the earth, Xun Gang doesn't know how much dust he has to absorb every day; If you don't have a special anti-poison device, I'm afraid your lungs will explode! Xun Gang suddenly envied the ancient people, although there was no computer WiFi, but at least they lived very quickly; Although the medical measures are very backward, there are famous doctors who are not for fame and fortune, but famous for future generations!

Xun Gang is not abandoning the doctor of the future, because he knows how hard this profession is; Those doctors no longer have the heart to benefit future generations, and their work is too tiring and tiring......

The bamboos on the mountain sway slowly in a gust of wind, and the delicate bamboo leaves make a "rustling" sound, playing the music of nature. The clear spring flowing down from the mountain is bubbling with a hint of cold, as if to indicate that a rainstorm is coming.

It was still early, Xun Shuang also made it clear to the outside that Xun Gang thanked the guests, Xun Gang suddenly felt bored, and wanted to go out of the valley for a walk.

"Huh? Stinky boy, do you want to run around again? ā€

Xun Gang was about to leave the valley, but he was stopped by a loud shout; Hearing this old and strong voice, Xun Gang suddenly felt that his head was big, can't you rest a little when you are old?

Xun Gang lives alone, no one depends on anyone, every day from noon to evening, there will be slaves not far away, every day a little free is early morning and night. I didn't expect to finally come to a busy place this morning, and I was caught by Xun Shuang!

Xun Gang turned his head a little fearfully, and saw that it was indeed Xun Shuang's tall figure, who would be over sixty years old next year, and his body was still very strong; He looked at Xun Gang seriously and said: "Last time you kid ran around during the Cold Food Festival, he was punished for three days of fasting and thought about it behind closed doors. ā€

After returning from the Cold Food Festival that day, Xun Gang did have a few hard days, but it was nothing; The biggest problem is that Xun Shuang found that the Ruyang plum blossom jade that Xun Gang was carrying with him was missing! This is a big deal, Xun Shuang asked in every possible way, Xun Gang just didn't answer, until he finally invited the family elders to use the family law, Xun Gang told him about Guo Jia.

The Xun family is also a member of the scholar family, and the same scholar not only does not have the idea of being contemptuous of literati, but agrees to Xun Gang's request and sends Yulu to Guo Jia in Yangzhai every month. Of course, it is naturally impossible for this Yulu to give a thousand taels of gold like Xun Gang, and give three taels of gold and several thousand five baht a month, which is also the highest limit.

Because of this incident, Xun Shuang asked Xun Gang to reflect at home, and he was not allowed to see guests or go out.

This lasted for nearly a month, this Xun Gang couldn't bear the loneliness at all today, and sneaked out, who would have thought that Xun Shuang would be ambushed at the door so early?

Xun Gang rolled his eyes left and right, as if he was looking for a way, but looking at Xun Shuang's eyes that seemed to kill someone, he was afraid.

Why don't you go back......

"What are you leaving, did I say I wouldn't let you out?"

was about to enter the house, Xun Shuang actually said such a sentence, like a heart booster, which made Xun Gang immediately come to his senses; Cautiously slipped past Xun Shuang, and saw that the latter did not stop him, and ran away.

"This stinky boy ......"

Xun Shuang's serious expression was slightly restrained, and he actually laughed; Although he is strict, he has read books after all, and it is enough to let him stay at home for a month, is it possible that he is not allowed to go out for a walk?

He raised a son, not a slave.

is irritable and mean, this is true, Xun Shuang does not dare to deny it; But at the same time, if he can teach a good child with this, he is willing to be misunderstood by his own children.

"As long as you stinky boy don't cause trouble for me......" Xun Shuang thought so.

………………………………

The empty valley is deep and secluded, as if it is another world, Xun Gang walked slowly, and saw the spring breeze around him, the branches and leaves were luxuriant, the vines were scattered, and the clear stream was slightly rippling, and he couldn't help but feel relaxed and happy. After staying at home for a month, it's good to come out and see everything.

The Xunshi Valley seems to be very large from the inside, but when you get to the mouth of the valley, it is extremely narrow, and after you go out, it is like a labyrinth of bamboo forests, and people who do not live here all year round are likely to get lost in it.

Xun Gang looked at the narrow valley mouth, and suddenly remembered Tao Yuanming's "The Story of the Peach Blossom Spring": "At the beginning, it was extremely narrow, only to understand people, and after dozens of steps, it suddenly opened up, the land was flat, and the houses were like ......" Thinking of this paragraph, Xun Gang actually hummed a song involuntarily.

The wisdom of the ancients is really infinite, if you are not in it, how can you feel the beauty of the Peach Blossom Spring?

Passing through the valley, Xun Gang entered the bamboo forest. Bamboo grows so fast that it can become huge in a few days. The bamboos at the entrance of Xunjia Valley are all like towering giant trees, covering the sky and the sun, hiding in them in summer, it is very cool, and the people around can't help but envy it.

In this bamboo forest, as long as it is not dark, no one can guess the change of time, and if you are unlucky, it will be night as soon as you stroll; If you are unlucky and encounter a wild wolf, it can only be regarded as unlucky.

Xun Gang continued to hum "The Story of the Peach Blossom Spring", strolling slowly in the bamboo forest, after all, he is the so-called "prodigy", although he rarely goes out, but this bamboo forest maze he has long been familiar with in his heart, and it is not an obstacle at all.

Xun Gang walked along the spring water flowing from the top of the mountain, stepping on the green grass and making a rustling sound, accompanied by the lark in the forest, so comfortable! No wonder there are so many people who hide in the mountains and forests during this period, if it weren't for Xun Gang's small ambition to expel the Tartars in his heart, I'm afraid that he would hide here and never come out of the mountain!

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Xun Gang heard a burst of dog barking not far away, accompanied by dog barking, as well as the sound of human wheezing and wading; It's no wonder that Xun Gang's ears are so clever, after all, in such a quiet bamboo forest, the slightest sound from a hundred meters away is extremely loud.

According to the judgment, the number of people in this team with dogs seems to be quite large, Xun Gang feels very strange, his Xun family never causes trouble, naturally they are not running to them, so what are these people here for?

Catch fugitives? Xun Gang seemed to be able to guess this point.

Xun Gang followed the sound, and when he didn't walk for a while, he saw a team of people and horses with hounds looking for something in the mountains, but looking at their expressions, they looked distressed, and it was obvious that they had found nothing.

"What are you looking for?"

The Xun family is the master of this valley, and naturally it is obliged to ask where they came from; Xun Gang saw that they were dressed lightly, but they were equipped with swords, and they were obviously from the government.

When they heard the voice, they turned their heads and saw that it was a child, and they did not think it was a wild child running around.

Seeing that they ignored him, Xun Gang suddenly felt a fire in his heart, and shouted at them: "This is a private field!" How can you do this without permission? ā€

The sudden increase in volume startled those officers and soldiers, and they looked at Xun Gang squarely, confirmed that it was the latter's voice, and began to talk about it.

"Captain, we really didn't have the permission of the Xun family, but how did this kid know?"

"This little kid looks like he's only three or four years old, how can he talk like a ghost?"

An older man pondered for a moment and said, "I think this kid should be the prodigy of the Xun family who boasted a while ago, so he has such a eloquent talent. ā€

"Captain, what are we going to do then?"

"Afraid of what? Even if we tell him about our search for a prisoner, why not? The Xun family is generally knowledgeable, and will not harbor criminals, let alone blame us for breaking into the valley without permission. ā€

After the discussion was over, the team of men and horses made a gap, Xun Gang looked up, and saw that it was an old man with a big beard, who looked only a little smaller than Xun Shuang.

The man walked up to Xun Gang, squatted down and said, "Presumably you are the Xun Gang of the Xun family." ā€

Xun Gang nodded.

The man said again: "I won't tell you, there was a murder case in Changshe County before, and we were ordered to investigate the case, and we came to this bamboo forest to track down the criminal, and now we are looking for annoying traces, I hope you can report to the patriarch of your family." ā€

It turned out that he was just looking for a prisoner, so it seems that he has nothing to do......

"You can do it yourself, I will report this matter to the elders when I go back, and you can investigate the case ......"

The captain didn't expect this kid to be so talkative, smiled and thanked him, and continued to lead his men to look for the prisoner. Xun Gang felt too bored, so he went the way he came and prepared to return.

"What can't be said about the knife?" Xun Gang said to himself, "Killing people pays for life, that is the most basic law set by Emperor Taizu, why do you have to die to kill people?" ā€

"Huh? Why does it stink so much? ā€

According to common sense, the fragrance of this bamboo forest is enough to make pedestrians walking in it very happy, but why does a smell suddenly appear, and it is a smell of feces?

The biggest creature in this bamboo forest is a wild wolf, even if ten wild wolves defecate together, it won't have such a big smell.

Xun Gang looked into the depths of the bamboo forest, the smell did come from that place, if it was to contact those officers and soldiers before, there was a murderer fleeing in the bamboo forest, would it be the smell of blood emitted by that person?

Xun Gang couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart, and walked towards the depths of the bamboo forest, if that person was a murderer, he shouldn't be able to attack a child......

Your friend Xun Gang's IQ has gone offline.

After walking for a few quarters of an hour, Xun Gang suddenly saw a dung heap not far away, which smelled very foul, and he didn't know what kind of animal excrement it was; But according to animal habits, there will not be the feces of two organisms in one place, so why is there so much feces in one place?

Xun Gang looked into the distance. The answer seems to be clear.

Not far from the dung heap, there was a man in a black cloth robe, unkempt and white-faced, and he didn't know what he looked like.

There was a foul smell on the outside of his clothes, and he thought he was smearing feces on his clothes to cover up the smell, and then concentrating the feces around him to confuse the dogs' sense of smell.

But Xun Gang knew that he had made a mistake in this decision, because the smell of feces made the dog more excited......

For this person, Xun Gang is very curious, very curious, very curious about his story and his identity......
