Chapter 197: The Picture Scroll of the Bandit Leader
The scorching sun is hot and hot, and it can't burn people, but it has made a lot of people who are in a hurry to press the goods faint, fortunately, there is a downpour in the past two days, and after the heat goes down, there is a little bit of long-lost coolness, the boss Wang who is responsible for transporting this flour wants to take advantage of the cool to hurry up, and get the time delayed by the rain back, and so the flour is on the cargo ship on the dock in front, and the brothers will rest on the boat as if they were on vacation, once they cross the Jiujiang River, out of the mouth of Poyang Lake, Even if this grinding errand is explained, they can also go to the kiln to be happy and sweep away the bad luck and hardships of the past few days, and they think very well, but this muddy path really doesn't give Boss Wang a little face, one foot deep, one foot shallow in the mud soup to go back and forth, not to mention how depressed, after walking for more than ten miles, this damn sun suddenly came to the middle of the sky, just now there was a little cold on the ground like boiling water, almost so hot that people dare not land on their feet, I had to scold the heavens and grit the root of my back teeth and go forward.
As soon as the weather changed, Boss Wang's team not only did not rush back, but delayed more than originally planned, just when he was trying to make these men rush more, the strong man in front suddenly turned around and complained: "Boss Wang, find a place to rest for a while, the brothers are tired enough!" ”
Boss Wang stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat on his head, put his hand on the pergola and looked ahead, sighed, and said, "What do you say?" Master Wen is dying, if this delays the day, it will be a sin to walk around without enough food. Brothers, do well, go again, go again, and when you get on the boat, my brother invites the brothers to drink! ”
A strong man came out from behind him, panting and sticking out his tongue, panting like a wild dog in summer: "Boss Wang is really not good, two more men passed out in the muddy water just now." If we go on like this, I am afraid that we will not be able to reach the place where we can get on the boat, and the brothers will have to break up. ”
"What! Don't let the flour on the car fall into the muddy water! Boss Wang was taken aback, and grabbed the strong man just now in a panic and asked nervously.
The strong man took a breath and said, "Big brother, don't worry, when those two boys fell, someone watched them to ensure that not a single bag of flour fell into the muddy water." ”
When Boss Wang heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, that's good!" Master Wen can't tolerate sand in his eyes, and tells the brothers to protect the flour no matter how hard and tired they are, if it is delivered to the dock safely, Lao Tzu will ask for wine and meat to treat the brothers! But then again, Lao Tzu has been in Jiangxi for more than ten years, and he has never seen such a bastard day, just after a rainstorm, it hasn't cooled down for half a day, it's like a fire, and it's really hard for brothers! ”
"Isn't it!" The previous big man panted and said: "Boss, I remember that there is a small forest in front, and when we get to where we are, it is estimated that the mud soup on the ground is dry, why not let the brothers have a good rest, if they go on like this, if the brothers all collapse, this is not a matter of not having a trip." Boss, you have to think about it...... "Who knew that he didn't say a word, so he fell to the ground, and two big men hurriedly came behind him to lift him aside, and it was spraying water, and it was according to the person, and it was a long time before he woke up this person, Boss Wang saw it himself, couldn't help but shook his head, and said to the strong man behind: "In fact, in such a ghost weather, Lao Tzu should really let the brothers wait for the grove and have a good rest!" But if it's not peaceful today, more things are better than less. ”
"Boss, you're so hearty!" The big man in the back licked his chapped lips and said, "Our brother hasn't taken this road more than a dozen times, but there have been eight or nine trips, don't worry." ”
Boss Wang sighed and said, "Okay, tell the brothers to hurry up, and wait until you enter the grove to let everyone cool down." ”
"Come on! You're really a saint! I'm going to tell the brethren! The strong man in the back said happily.
After the news passed, the speed of the convoy was significantly improved, and the grove could be seen at a glance, but Boss Wang was a little puzzled, that Wen He is the master of the bones in the egg, and his favorite thing to do is to cut the meat from the legs of mosquitoes, the brothers have suffered such a big sin, once they rest, I am afraid it will not be easy to get up, anyway, after this wood, and then walk on the road for an hour to the dock, if you go directly to forget it, after all, more is better than less.
But he looked back at these brothers who were tired like dogs, and couldn't help but find out in his heart, if he didn't stop, he was afraid that he would rebel on the spot, and at that time he would become the target of public criticism, and it would take some effort to appease these men, and it would be even more worth the loss.
After thinking about it, Boss Wang took the lesser of two powers, so it was better to go to the grove in front of him to take a rest, and it was a big deal to say something good to those windows, and he would rush back from the delayed hour, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief after making up his mind. But the resentment in his heart was accumulating more and more, and in the end, he had to blame Wen He for all the complaints.
If it weren't for his greed for cheapness, he didn't do the business of the regular wharf, he had to go to this damn little place to find a price and hand over the general little-known small fleet, the brothers sat in the boat three days ago to fish and chat, of course, this kind of thing he only dared to say in his stomach, after all, he was taking people's money to give people on errands, and the masters asked him to do whatever he wanted, anyway, the wages for a day's work and one day's wages were actually not a loss!
Seeing that the convoy transporting flour was about to reach the grove, the speed of the convoy fell in a straight line, and finally slowly descended like a snail, Boss Wang wanted to reprimand these men, but if he thought about it, he would forget it, anyway, he was going to rest, so don't look for it anymore.
"Tell the brothers to work harder, go into the woods, and let the brothers rest!" Boss Wang said in an almost pleading tone.
After the strong man passed the message, the speed of the convoy was not significantly accelerated but even slower, and Boss Wang had to swallow the fire in his stomach, thinking that he would let these lazy people take a horse, and when he was not nervous, Lao Tzu had to teach these fools a good lesson!
Just when the front slowly arrived in the woods and was about to rest, suddenly a gunshot sounded in the forest, and Boss Wang couldn't help but be stunned, and saw hundreds of men wearing various costumes and black cloths rushing over from the woods.
"I'm going on, what's going on, didn't you say that it's safe to walk here a dozen times? How did there be bandits? Boss Wang grabbed the man behind him and shouted.
The man in the back said aggrievedly: "How do I know that there are bandits here, it wasn't like this when we left before!" ”
"Rubbish! Why don't we hurry up and let someone protect our flour! Wang Lao threw the man out in a hurry, and the man ran out in embarrassment, so that the men in and out of the car took care of the flour. In fact, it is not good to say anything at this time, these men have long been shocked by the gunfire just now like puppet sculptures, no matter whether the men are good words of persuasion or evil words to each other, they are motionless.
Boss Wang sighed, first slowly straightened his clothes, wiped the sweat on his head, and then strode towards the front, and before the other party could say anything, he first made a circle and said, "I don't know if you are friends on that road?" ”
"You're the owner of this batch of flour?"
The leader of these masked bandits is a young man in his twenties, he looks relatively fair, his eyebrows are full of heroic spirit, there is no special tone in his words, but he is full of an indescribable coercion from the superiors, this kind of coercion is not strange to Boss Wang, he has seen it in Wen He, but the majesty on Wen He's body is compared with this person, in an old saying, how can the light of fireflies compete with the bright moon!
It's just that such a good person actually mixed with the green forest road, it's a pity, it's a pity.
However, Boss Wang didn't have time to feel sorry for this young man, he was now a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it was difficult to protect himself. Now he can only try his best to pass this level first, so he smiled and said: "This uncle is really wrong to love, how can such a good flour be in the hands of a villain?" These are the flour of Wen and Wen Daren, you must know Wen and ......."
"Wen and I still know that he eats, drinks, prostitutes, gambles, smokes, cheats, abducts, cheats, and steals. Beating and scolding, being lazy and slippery, I am afraid that no one in the entire Jiangxi Province does not know! Ha ha! The young bandit leader spoke softly, smiling softly, and the masked men behind him laughed as well, but the young man smiled very gently, very kindly, but they laughed a little unscrupulously.
"This uncle, you have to know, no matter whether these rumors are true or false, Lord Wenhe is the hardcore cronies and godsons of Lord Li Chunli, the overseer of Jiangxi, of course, you can laugh at Lord Wenhe's rights and wrongs in front of me, but if you touch a grain of flour of Lord Wenhe, I am afraid that it will ...... Hehe, Master Li Chun's style must not be said by villains, you heroes should understand! ”
"Do you think I'll be scared if I come under the guise of Wenhe?" The young bandit didn't seem to be afraid, his face was still that frightening calmness and calmness, not only was his calm and terrible, but even the masked men behind him didn't react in fear at all, it was like waiting here to rob Wen He, if this was the case, this batch of flour and his own life would not be saved, Boss Wang really didn't dare to forget this thought, the more he really thought about it, the more cold sweat he felt.
"Uncle, you have to figure it out!" Boss Wang said in horror: "Although the heroic grandfather is strong and strong, compared to Li Chun and Li Overseer, it is a big deal, we can't touch the egg on the stone!" The conjecture in his heart made the confidence in his heart evaporate a lot at once, and even the title changed from uncle to heroic grandfather.
"Oh? You're thinking about me? It's really fun! The young bandit leader looked forward with contempt and said, "Are you really not afraid that I will kill you?" ”
Boss Wang saw him coming over, he was really in a cold sweat, his face was pale, and there was no blood, he was really afraid that he would kill himself if he didn't agree with him, but he heard a little hope from what he said just now, if the other party really wanted to kill him, how could there be so much nonsense, it seems that Li Chun and Wenhe who moved out just now still have an effect, thinking of this, he couldn't help but have a little confidence, and immediately said: "Not only for the sake of the hero's grandfather, but also for the sake of the villain's head, if the hero's grandfather moved this batch of flour." , angered the Overseer, not only did the villain's head fall to the ground, but you also had to go to the city gate to accompany the villain to see the scenery.
"Humph! You're such a sharp tooth! Do you think a few words can scare Lao Tzu away? What a dream! The young leader said disdainfully.
"How dare the villain be so powerless and presumptuous!" Boss Wang said sadly: "I just think that if the heroic grandfather raises his noble hand this time and releases the batch of flour of the good man and the old man, I believe that the old man Wen He will definitely prepare a meaning for the good man grandfather!" ”
The young bandit leader laughed when he heard this, and said: "If Lao Tzu believes in Wenhe, I am afraid that the population will be hung at the door of Jiujiang City Tower, but seeing that you are so honest and responsible, Lao Tzu can give you a chance!" It's just that you have to show some real skills! Otherwise, Lao Tzu wants to let you go, I'm afraid the brothers don't want to! ”
Boss Wang glanced at the young bandit leader, thought about it, nodded, and said, "The little one is ugly!" As he spoke, he pulled the man behind him who was so frightened that his legs trembled, put a stone on his head, and then took a hundred steps back, took off his shirt, and after blindfolding, after turning around in place three or four times, he stretched out his hand, and saw a white light fly out of his sleeve, and only heard a clang, and a nail as thick as the size of an index finger struck the stone on the man's head, and nailed it to the trunk of a big tree behind the man with a 'doo', and the man spoke to the ground.
Those men who escorted the grain couldn't help but applaud one after another! The young bandit leader couldn't help but nod when he saw it, but the masked man behind him took a few steps forward nervously, protecting the young bandit leader from trying to prevent Boss Wang from plotting against him!
After Boss Wang heard the voice, he smiled, took off the clothes in front of him, and arched his hand towards the young bandit leader without changing his face and heartbeat, and said, "I accept it, I don't know if the heroic grandfather is satisfied!" ”
The young bandit leader smiled faintly and said, "If you have such a skill, no wonder Wen He and that kid wants you to be this escort officer, but is it worth it to work for this kind of person?" ”
"Whether it's worth it or not is a matter of the next, and it has nothing to do with you, uncle!" After Boss Wang showed his hand, he was much more confident, and the heroic grandfather immediately became an uncle.
"Very good, I do have some skills! I'll give you this one a business! The young bandit leader waved his hand behind him, and a masked man took out a scroll from his bosom and threw it to Boss Wang.
Boss Wang didn't know why, after getting the instructions of the young bandit leader, he carefully opened the scroll slowly, only to find that the person on the scroll was actually the young bandit leader.
What does this mean exactly?
