Chapter 13 For a nap, not a corpse board, intimidating the commander of an unintentional move
Ma Ye didn't eat anything this day, he drank less water, and he tossed blindly for a day, three watches in the middle of the night, and he had to hurry at this time, and he was very sleepy, and he was very sleepy, and he was stumbling all the way, and the chickens pecked rice, and he almost didn't sit down firmly several times, and fell off the horse.
Brother Yuan is really scared, don't break the master before you get to the place, it's too dangerous.
"Young master, let's ride the same horse, I'll hold the reins and control the horse, and you can squint a little on the horse."
Brother Yuan suggested.
Ma Ye stared in a daze, yawning for a long time, trying to widen his eyes to keep himself awake.
"I couldn't fall asleep right away, and my neck was painfully tight."
As he spoke, he put his hand on his stiff neck with a painful expression, a little uncomfortable.
Then, as if he had made up his mind, he suddenly reined in the reins and dismounted, and went straight to the several family members who carried Wang's corpse.
"Brothers! Stop! ”
When several family members heard this greeting, they immediately stopped, and they all looked back, curiously looking at Lord Tong who was walking towards them.
"What do you command?"
The leader bent down slightly and asked.
Ma Ye's biggest regret at this time was that he was in front of the Mu Mansion before, and he was a man who was righteous for a while, and refused the carriage provided by Mu Niangzi, afraid that going back on the way would damage the majestic image of his prefect.
But in fact, this road in the wilderness is still in the middle of the night, and it is really said that whoever sees it will be a lonely ghost.
Repentance is true repentance.
"Brothers, let's discuss."
His face suddenly changed to a flattering smile, and several people looked hairy.
"Lord Ben, I've been working hard all day today, and now I want to find a place to lie down and rest and take a nap."
Several people looked at each other in a daze, still not knowing what his intentions were, what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd.
Ma Ye paused and continued: "This Wang family is already dead, lying on this board is also a waste of resources, it is better to carry her body to me immediately, let Brother Yuan watch it closely, and let me rest on this board for a while." ”
Several people were obviously shocked, and they said in their hearts, isn't this Lord Tong crazy?
"Oh, there's still seven or eight miles to go, and I really can't hold it."
Ma Ye yawned twice in succession, and his eyes were red. The upper and lower eyelids are straight to fight. The body is unstable.
"Well, my lord, it's not a big deal..."
A few people are still embarrassed, and they always feel that it is inappropriate.
Squinting on the board where the dead man had slumped, did he sleep?
Aren't you afraid that as soon as you fall asleep, only the unjust soul of a female ghost will come to ask for your life?
Seeing that a few people should not move, Ma Ye was in a hurry first, stepped forward directly, lifted the white cloth covering Wang's face and body, lifted the corpse, and did not forget to beckon Brother Yuan, who was still on horseback, to come down and take a hand.
"Master, you better bear with it, let's hurry first."
Brother Yuan was crying, crying with a sad face, and his legs and stomach were soft when he got off the horse.
Although he has followed his own father for so many years, he has done a lot of messy things, but this is the first time that he has not revered the dead. He has heard it since he was a child, and there are many folk stories about ghosts asking for their lives, and coupled with this uninhabited atmosphere, his legs are shaking even more.
"What are you doing in a daze, come here and help the handle."
Ma Ye was a little annoyed when he saw that Brother Yuan didn't pay attention to him.
"Oh, oh..."
Although Brother Yuan was about to pee his pants in fright, he had to listen to the young master's words, holding back tears and fear, twisting in pain, and his facial features were squeezed together.
When he got close to the female corpse, he deliberately turned his head away and didn't look at it, inhaled and exhaled violently a few times, cheered himself up, his eyes were closed, and his mouth couldn't help but mutter: "Don't look for me, don't look for me, it's our master who asked me to do it, don't look for me... ”
When his whole body stiffened, he stiffened and helped move the body of the Wang family to the horse, but he still didn't dare to open his eyes.
"Little brother, I hurt so much that you pinched it just now, so let's get on the horse and accompany me...
"Mom!"
Brother Yuan was already so frightened that the six gods had no master, listening to this leisurely voice, he didn't distinguish between men and women, and he turned around and was anxious to run away, but he was dragged by Ma Ye's "hehe" dry laughter twice.
"Is it so small? I scare you, nerd! ”
Sure enough, it was his grandfather's bad taste that came out again.
"Master!" Brother Yuan stomped in disgust, and there was no way to have such a master.
Wang's body was on a horse.
Because the small scissors on her chest had not been removed, she had to lie on her back facing the sky for the time being.
Ma Ye took the white cloth sheet that was originally covered on his whole body and used it as a rope to fix it for "her".
"Alright, let's work."
He clapped his hands with satisfaction, and then told Brother Yuan.
"You ride a horse and show me this corpse, don't fall halfway and don't know, do you hear?"
Brother Yuan let out a tearful "um".
For most of the next half of the hour, he had to be side by side with this dead corpse, and he had to face her weird face, he, a good master, was really as good as ever, and he would be sympathetic to his subordinates.
Everything was "in order".
Although a few family members felt incredible in their hearts, "shocking the world", after all, when they came out, Mrs. Mu said that they would let them send, and they could only obey.
Ma Ye jumped on the plank one by one, Mei Zizi lay down, and the leading family members worked together to lift the board as soon as they "got up", and the group continued to hurry.
This hard board is panicked, and it is narrow, and although it is uncomfortable to fall asleep, it can finally lie down.
Ma Ye stilted his feet and looked at the sparse and dim stars in the sky, a little comfortable.
"Master, we seem to have arrived at the station of the Hu commander."
After walking for dozens of meters, Brother Yuan suddenly shouted.
Ma Ye hurriedly sat up and watched.
The brightly lit tent has soldiers with anti-snow knives and forks, eight-foot-long seedlings, ash rods, and people holding foreign guns patrolling back and forth.
But I also saw a few soldiers, sitting in front of a cauldron supported on the ground at will, and the aroma of cooking meat in it was still "gurgling" and cooking, all the way to the wind, and it was continuously sent to Ma Ye's nose.
Ma Ye's hungry stomach was awakened in this way.
"Oh, light a fire and eat meat in the middle of the night, free and loose, this is like coming to suppress bandits, it is clearly here to enjoy, what kind of general and what kind of soldier! Let's go, let's go! ”
The righteousness and stern words he said were just a chance to give himself a chance to eat for nothing.
Ma Ye was thinking about his rhetoric for a while, and by the way, he would also meet this shameless and shameless leader Hu.
According to Ma Ye's orders, several people did not dare to slack off, and went towards the station.
He lay down comfortably again, with his head resting on his arms, thinking that he would have meat to eat in a while, and his heart was filled with joy.
How did Ma Ye know, this person who sat on the ground outside the tent and ate meat freely in the middle of the night, what kind of unorganized and undisciplined stragglers were clearly Commander Hu with his two cronies and military advisors drinking and talking about the mountains.
Still the sharp-eyed military advisor was drunk and hazy, and he was the first to discover the menacing Ma Ye and his group.
"Commander, Commander, do you see if there is a team of men and horses coming ahead?"
Commander Hu also drank a lot, squinted his eyes, looked at it carefully for a while, and said with a big tongue and a wine burp.
"You're talking about the two tall horses, one with a seat, and the other with something that I don't know what's pressing? Belch.. ”
"Commander, I look at a person, and there's something stuck in my chest!"
The words spoken by the military advisor were all out of tune, and he was obviously frightened.
"Isn't it dead if you stick something in your chest, can it still be a human being, isn't that a dead person?"
"Dead, dead?"
Commander Hu came back to his senses, and the wine was more than half awake, and he stood up excitedly to take a look.
"Are the four people in front of you still carrying one?"
In the second half of the night, the moon was already coming and going in and out of clouds of different shades, flickering and dimming, and it would be clear for a while, and then it would not be real.
"I think they're coming at us."
The advisor's nervous voice trembled.
"Master, they seem to be looking at us, stand up and look there."
Brother Yuan immediately reported the observed news in real time.
"Where?"
Ma Ye immediately sat up and turned his head to look.
"Eh, why can't you see it?"
It's only fifty meters away.
"Yin wind".
The moon in the sky seemed to have deliberately made a little joke and burrowed into the thick clouds.
After the clouds are restored to the brightness of heaven and earth, Hu Commander and a few people can be frightened enough.
The thing he was carrying suddenly sat up, and it was a young male "ghost" wearing a small hat, his face was pale, and he stared at a few people motionlessly, and the distance was shortened a lot.
"Ghost, ghost!"
Commander Hu's face turned green, and he crawled back to the big tent with a rolling belt, ordered the big tent curtains to be lowered left and right quickly, extinguished all the lights, took out the pocket firearm he carried with him, and held it tightly in his hand.
Ma Ye and the others did not approach the big tent, they stopped in front of the big iron pot, they were strange that there was no one, and they thought they were dazzled, but they immediately found that the big tent not far behind them was not only unmanned to patrol and guard, but also had no lights.
Ma Ye stood in place with his waist crossed, touching his chin and wondering: "What's the situation?" ”
However, in the face of this pot of fragrant broth, he still squatted down happily, unceremoniously, beckoned Brother Yuan's family to sit down and eat, and what excited him the most was that he found that there was still wine as soon as he sat down on the ground.
After a few people were full of wine and food, they burped and didn't pay attention to why the big tent was suddenly put down, so they were so satisfied and ready to get up and leave.
At the end of the day, it's mainly about a meal.
"What's that?"
As soon as he staggered out two steps, Ma Ye felt that he was stepping on something, and he picked it up and looked at it, it was a copper piece with exquisite workmanship and a boxy totem of auspicious clouds.
"It's a good thing."
It didn't matter who it was, Ma Ye took it away with him in his pocket, and several people continued to hurry.
After eating and drinking, he had enough strength and foot strength, and soon arrived at the brightly lit mansion.
Qi Yuan, who also loves to hold a folding fan, stood in front of the door with the government office, still waiting.
He received the letter and said that their prefect was going to transport the female corpse back overnight, but more than an hour passed, and he waited anxiously and waited to see no one.
Seeing that Brother Yuan and his party finally appeared, he was overjoyed, put away his fan, and trotted to greet him. But I didn't see Ma Ye, and I wondered.
"Where's your lord?"
As soon as he finished speaking, an even snoring sounded very regularly not far in front of him, accompanied by a vague whisper of "good wine" in a dream.
There was already earnest laughter in the crowd.
Qi Yuan was full of black lines.
As soon as I lowered my head, I saw that they were being carried by people on all fours, lying on a wooden board that was not wide, very much like a coffin board, and their hands and feet were hanging at will, and if they accidentally turned over, there was always a danger of falling.
He is not afraid of falling to his death...
Thinking that he is a dignified son, suave, unparalleled in the world, full of scripture talent, and martial arts, but he wants to become a master of this kind of goods, and he has to protect him by the way, I feel very breathless when I think about it.
"What are you looking at, don't hurry up and carry the adults in!"
Qi Yuan frowned and covered his nose with a paper fan, but he could still smell the smell of wine on his Lord Tong.
He called people with a gloomy face, and gave his good adult "aftermath".
This night, I slept until noon the next day.
The hangover Ma Ye was still dizzy from the headache, and before he could slow down, he was called by his dear Master Qi to study the case.
