Chapter 17: The Lonely Hero
Chen Zikun pulled out his bayonet and was about to chase him out, but Zhao Dahai stopped him: "Don't be impulsive, you can't save Xing'er with a knife." ”
"Do they still have guns? If you are a seed, I will go myself! Chen Zikun's eyes widened and he said cruelly.
"Xing'er was sold to the Ma family by his father for two hundred oceans, and the deed of sale was fingerprinted!" Zhao Dahai's eyes were about to erupt with anger, and a pair of iron fists snapped.
Baoqing gritted his teeth, his eyes were red, but he looked helpless.
Chen Zikun realized that it was not Brother Dahai and Baoqing who were not seeded, but they really couldn't help.
When a father sells his daughter, it is fair, it is useless to sue the yamen, people are not distressed when they are fathers, and the neighbors can only stare dryly.
There was a heart-rending cry from Xing'er's house, Chen Zikun heard a pain in his heart, and when he entered the house, he saw that his belongings were smashed in a mess, Xing'er Niang sat on the ground and cried bitterly, and there was a shoe print on her body, Guo'er squatted in the corner grinding a kitchen knife, and the sound of hocs was terrifying.
"Godmother, don't worry, I will definitely save Xing'er back." Chen Zikun helped Xing'er Niang to the kang and swore an oath.
"Child, you go and fight with them, the Ma family is a flyover, we can't afford to provoke it, Xing'er has a hard life, and having such a father is also fateful." Xing'er Niang's tears fell down.
"Brother Kun, I'll go with you!" Guo'er jumped up, and the five finger marks on her face were very clear.
"You're at home with your mother." Chen Zikun patted Guo'er on the shoulder, got up and went out, and happened to meet Xiao Shunzi coming home from work, and was eagerly asking Baoqing about what had just happened.
Xing'er was sold by her father, and even the backbone of the brothers, Brother Dahai, was helpless, and the neighbors sighed one by one, talking about the monstrous power of the Ma family.
The Ma family is an old household in the capital, the old lady Ma was a soldier in the Shanpu battalion, and he had a lot of work under his hands, and later the court trained the new army, he was old, and he was laid off, and simply became a gangster, colluded with a gang of splashers, and did everything to abduct and deceive, and gradually saved up a little family business, and opened a car factory at the age of fifty, and one hundred and ten foreign cars were either Dongfuxing or Shuangheshun, and the old ones were also seventy percent new.
The old man married three daughters-in-law and gave birth to six sons in his life, none of which were fuel-efficient lamps.
The boss of the Ma family followed the Boxers to smash the church in the year of the Gengzi Rebellion, killed Ermaozi, and later died in the chaos; The second child is now the eldest son in the family, and he messes around on the flyover all day long, with water in the morning and water in the afternoon; The old three mixed Qianmen Railway Station, the people who stole the bags and touched the porcelain were all his subordinates; The fourth is a loan shark, and he has a bunch of idlers under his hands; The fifth brother is more talented than the three brothers, and he works as an errand in the Jingshi Police Department, and the Ma family is so powerful, he has a share of the credit; The sixth child is the most powerful, only in his early twenties this year, and he is a top student in the university hall, and he is a star in Wenqu.
"I heard that Mrs. Ma has not been in good health recently, and she has always wanted to marry a concubine Chongxi." A neighbor said so.
"Yes, the Ma family is not short of money, two hundred oceans to buy a yellow flower girl, it is like playing for their family." Someone chimed in.
Everyone sighed, Xing'er's life is really bitter, the eighteen-year-old girl is going to marry a bad old man who is half cut into the ground, even if she has been favored for the past two years, she can eat and drink spicy, and when the old man dies, the first few aunts and wives, as well as the six wolf-like sons will not eat her alive.
"Chen Baipi is really not a thing." This is the final conclusion reached by everyone, but no one has mentioned how to rescue Xing'er, as if this matter has been sealed and irreparable.
Chen Zikun came over and patted Xiao Shunzi on the shoulder, entered the house with him, took out his old sheepskin jacket and dog skin hat, and a pair of yellow tweed breeches, and asked Xiao Shunzi: "Is there a foreign fire?" ”
"Yes." Xiao Shunzi hurriedly took out a box of matches and handed it over.
Chen Zikun changed into his own clothes, put the match in his arms, tied the bayonet to his leg, and said calmly: "Call Brother Dahai and Baoqing in." ”
It didn't take much effort, the brothers arrived, and Chen Zikun told Xiao Shunzi to close the door of the house and said, "I'm going to save Xing'er." ”
"Are you crazy, the Ma family is so powerful, you can't fight." Big Brother Road.
"I have my own opinions, you just have to say whether you can help me or not." Chan remains calm.
"Kunzi, what do you say, I'll risk my life to save Xing'er." Baoqing was the first to respond.
Xiao Shunzi also gritted his teeth and said: "Fight with them!" ”
Zhao Dahai frowned and said: "The Ma family is the tiger's den in Longtan, and a few of us will not do anything at all, in fact, I have already thought about it, please ask my master to come out, his old man's face, the old lady Ma will not give it." ”
Chen Zikun said: "Brother Dahai, I don't want to play with them, I have a sense of proportion, you can trust me." ”
Zhao Dahai has also been mixed in the world for more than ten years, and his eyesight is definitely not bad, Chen Zikun's calm appearance is not like pretending, there is no diamond and no porcelain work, this brother may have seen a big scene outside the gate.
Thinking of this, Zhao Dahai no longer insisted, and said, "What do you say, we will cooperate with you." ”
Chen Zikun said: "The Ma family is powerful, and there is a sales contract, this lawsuit is not easy to fight, but it is not without room for maneuver, Baoqing, you go to your father, please Inspector Xue come forward to ask, Xiao Shunzi, go back and bring Guo'er to arrest Chen Sanpi, if he doesn't listen to the greeting, he will be beaten to death, Brother Dahai, you are still acting according to the original plan, we had better solve this matter without using swords, and if it is really not possible, we will use force." ”
All three nodded.
Chen Zikun said: "Let's gather all the lamp oil at home and find a glass bottle with a lid to put it." ”
"You are ......" Brother Dahai stopped talking and gave a thumbs up, "Kunzi, you are ruthless!" ”
Several kerosene lamps were emptied, and a bottle full of kerosene was made, Chen Zikun found a rag to plug the mouth of the bottle and put it on his body, and the belt was tight, asked the address of the Ma family, and went straight out of the miscellaneous courtyard with pride.
……
The old lady of the Ma family is called Ma Shihai, who is almost seventy years old, and his waist is still straight, and the sound is like a bell.
Ma Shihai was wearing a brand-new black tuanhua satin horse coat, and the new melon skin hat was inlaid with a jade hat with excellent water head, and he stood at the gate in good spirits to greet guests, originally he was a birthday star, and he didn't have to stand at the gate in person, but this came back to the boss of the fifth child, Li Gongzheng of the Jingshi Police Department, Mrs. Ma understood a truth from the Qing Dynasty, no matter how the world changed, the person who held the gun in his hand was right.
The sky is gray, a few snow particles are drifting down, the church in the courtyard is babbling and singing, looking back at the bright gate painted with red paint, I can't help but feel proud in my heart, this house is he bought from a down-and-out clan town general, five into the big house door with a cross-courtyard, that is called a style, if this is in the pre-Qing Dynasty, people without grade are not allowed to live, or the Republic of China......
The snowflakes became denser and denser, and the third aunt came out of it with a fox fur and carefully draped it on Ma Shihai's shoulders, and the old man put on a fox fur and coughed a few times.
"Master, go in and wait, Police Officer Li is so busy, maybe when he will come." The third aunt persuaded too much, and opened an oil-paper umbrella to cover the top of the master's head.
"Women, what do you know!" Ma Shihai reprimanded.
The lamppost of the car in the distance pierced the darkness, the dense snow particles were invisible under the light, a black Ford sedan stopped at the door of Mafu, the driver got out of the car and opened the door, a middle-aged man wearing a black tweed police uniform got out of the car, tugged at the hem of the police uniform, and suddenly saw the old lady Ma standing at the door, hurriedly took a few steps forward, and exclaimed: "Old man, how dare you do this, torture the juniors." ”
Ma Shihai said with a smile: "Where is it, the old man has lost his welcome, and I invite Master Li Haihan." ”
Police Officer Li said with a smile: "The old birthday star said that he was joking, come on, bring my congratulatory gift." ”
The orderly came over with a lacquerware plate, covered with red flannel, and Policeman Li was tearing off the red flannel, revealing the neat stacks of the ocean inside, and there were hundreds of them.
"Master Li is willing to come to the cold house, and the old man is already grateful, how can I still take such a generous gift, how can I afford it."
"I can afford it, I can afford it, I am good brothers with the fifth child, and the old man is the same as my elders." Police Officer Li grabbed Ma Shihai's arm with a smile and entered the house together, and the policeman who guarded the door arranged by Lao Wu followed his heels together and shouted: "Salute!" ”
The arrival of Li Jingzheng has made the birthday banquet reach a new **, the friends present today can be described as three religions and nine streams, open a restaurant, casino, big smoke house, storytelling, and show arts, but more are idle and unscrupulous green-skinned gangsters, the courtyard of Wujin is full of banquets, four plates and eight bowls, chicken, duck and fish are old and white, open the tube enough, Mrs. Ma does not want anything else, just want a festive.
The courtyard was full of people, the sound of fists came and went, Li Gongzheng was invited into the living room of the main house, the table here is different from the outside, it is made by the chef of Dongxing Building, eight oceans and a table, it can be described as extremely expensive, five brothers sit in a circle, the second, the third and the fourth are wearing new satin jackets, the fifth is wearing a black police uniform and an armed belt, and a box cannon is hung on the waist, and the sixth is the most gentle, wearing a dress, a tweed suit and tie, and combing a shiny parted hair.
Police Officer Li saw the big word Shou posted on the middle hall, and quipped: "There should be another double happiness." ”
Ma Shihai was not a Sven person in the first place, and when he saw that Police Li was joking, he also smiled: "The second son, a loser, bought a concubine to warm the feet of the old man, and he also accepted a concubine when he was almost seventy, which made Master Li laugh." ”
Police Officer Li had read a few books, there was a little ink in his stomach, and he said with a smile: "This is called a pear flower pressing begonia, and the old lady Ma is not old." ”
The five sons of the Ma family who were sitting around the big round table all laughed, and the fourth pouted and said: "The girl that the second brother bought is not good, Dad, I aimed at a girl who was performing on a flyover, and that figure is absolutely incurable, so I will buy it back for you to try it tomorrow." ”
Ma Lao Er retorted: "Come on, it's not uncommon for our dad to run the rags of the rivers and lakes, you can keep it for yourself, what our dad likes is the unopened yellow flower girl." ”
Ma Shihai sank his face and said angrily: "Presumptuous, the guests are still here." ”
Police Officer Li laughed: "The two brothers are temperamental, I like it." ”
A burst of laughter, a joyful one.
……
In a house in the back house, Xing'er was tied up and thrown on the bed with five flowers, with a cloth ball in her mouth, and a red cloth with tassels on her head, and two stout old mothers sat next to her while eating melon seeds and chatting.
"This girl is very fierce, and she wants to die."
"If it falls into the hands of the master, no matter how fierce the female doll is, she will have to obey sooner or later."
Inside the red hijab, two tears flowed from Apricot eyes.
……
When Chen Zikun came to the outside of the horse house, the snow had fallen heavily, he shook off the snow particles on his hat and leather jacket, and walked into the gate in a grand manner.
Entering the gate, there was a square table in front of him, covered with red cloth, and two people who looked like tents were sitting there fiddling with abacus, writing and drawing, which seemed to be a place to receive gift money, Chen Zikun arched his hand at them: "I am a friend of the second master." Then he swaggered in.
The tent watched him go in and scolded: "The second master's friend is really not particular, come to eat white food." ”
However, they didn't stop Chen Zikun, because Mrs. Ma said that today is a lively and festive picture, and it is not too much to give a hundred yuan, and it is not too little to send two large coins, even if there is no one, kowtowing counts.
Chen Zikun entered Ma's house in such an open and honest way, there were dozens of banquets in the courtyard outside, there were dozens of tables, he sat at a nearby wine table and slapped the people around him: "Old man, I haven't seen you for a few days, let's go with one brother." Regardless of the stunned gazes of others, he picked up the wine bowl and poured it into his mouth, and half of the bowl of wine was spilled on his clothes.
People thought he was drunk, so naturally they didn't care about him, so he pretended to be drunk and looked for a thatched house, stumbling around in the Ma family's house, but secretly kept the terrain in mind.
The layout of the courtyard in Beijing is regular, the dignity and humility are orderly, the noble and the lowly are divided, the position where the head of the family lives is fixed, today there are many guests in the horse house, the fish and dragons are mixed, the muddy water is good to fish, Chen Zikun easily mixed to the door of the fourth courtyard, but was stopped here.
"This lord, this is a place to entertain distinguished guests, please go outside." A subordinate said politely.
"I have something to do with the second master." Chen Zikun pretended to be drunk, bullied him forward, slashed his subordinate on the neck with a knife, knocked him unconscious to the ground, dragged him to a dark place to hide, and went straight to the main room.
Ma Shihai, Li Jingzheng and others were drinking and talking, when suddenly the door opened, the wind blew in with snow particles, the flames of the red candles shook a few times, and a tall figure appeared at the door.
