Chapter 589: Friends
589
In the dead of night, there are three watches.
On an inconspicuous hillside northwest of Heijo, it was pitch black, and a faint glow of fire was faintly visible from the houses that had not been inhabited for a long time.
The tattered roof, the leaky windows, the rotten, musty wet straw with worms in and out, and a man lying on his back on the straw in a corner of the house.
Wan Datou was suddenly awakened, and there was a tremor of pain from the back of his neck, which cleared his chaotic mind, and suddenly found that his hands and feet were tied, and he could scream if it wasn't for something stuffed in his mouth.
What's going on?
Where am I?
I should be in a warm bed~~
Tamar's~
It's over, it's over.
Thinking of the last consciousness, Wan Datou was shocked and angry, and twisted slightly, trying to get rid of the clamps, but because of years of habit, he did not make a louder noise.
The distant sound of "Knock ......" lingered in my ears, like a life-threatening movement.
Wan Datou turned his head to look at the only place of light, only through a broken stone wall, and a figure was vaguely seen through the crack.
The figure shook, and the sound of footsteps followed, perhaps because of the slight noise he had made before, Wan Datou broke out in a cold sweat, and he didn't dare to move in vain, maintaining the posture of lying on the corpse.
The footsteps slowly approached, and Wan Datou only felt that there were a pair of eyes staring at him in the dark, as if he was sure that he was awake.
"Are you awake?" A slightly younger voice came from everywhere through the gate, and the knocking sound that Wan Datou had heard before had stopped.
"I didn't wake up, it's a mouse." The other voice was calm and powerful, and it was far away with the sound of footsteps.
Immediately after that, Wan Datou heard some more sounds, the creak of loose chairs, the sound of wine jugs hitting the table, the sound of chewing......
Let Wan Datou be sure that it is two people, and they are eating and drinking, but he doesn't know where he came from, but he is definitely not from the Yamen, otherwise he should be in prison at this time instead of here.
Wan Datou thought about how to get out, and listened intently to the conversation between the two people next door, and the voice slowly came into his ears.
"It's almost time to dig for a while, so I dug and buried it quickly."
Wan Datou: ......
What does it mean?
What's the matter, I'm going to bury him. So, the thump he heard just now was the sound of digging the earth?
Brother, we have something to say.
Wan Datou was so anxious that he couldn't make a sound because he stuffed something in his mouth, and was about to twist his body to make a louder noise to beg for mercy, when the young voice sounded disdainfully.
"When you wake up, you will be killed directly, and it will be over with a knife, the master said, so that he will not see the sun tomorrow."
Wan Datou in a posture of begging for mercy: "......"
And let not let people live.
"I said that our master was too careful, and he would have to kill him directly, and he actually let us dig a pit in the mountains so far away, and it was even more late at night, and it would delay things a lot......"
The young voice was endless, and the other barely made a sound, and it took a long time before he scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, we will do whatever the master tells us." ”
"Hey! Yes, yes, the master is the biggest, what the master commands is what, don't remind me here, I don't know. The young voice seemed to disagree, and the voice was louder: "Who in the whole Pingcheng has our master, not only married the girl of the Zhou family, but also a celebrity in Pingcheng, who in Pingcheng does not know the name of our master, this time I caught this wanted criminal in the court, the wanted criminal in the court, the government can't catch it, send it to our master, if you want me to say that I can send it directly to the official, I don't know what he thinks......"
"Let's go, dig a pit, it's almost dawn." Another voice shouted, slamming the flask on the table, as if getting up and walking around.
"Well, wait for me." Then the sound of tables and chairs colliding sounded one after another.
"You said how much reward our master can give us this time, last time we took back 130,000 taels from the second master, and it took the boss a lot of effort to give 20 taels of reward, which is too picky, I hope this time it can be more, after all, it is a matter of killing people......"
The sound faded away, and the sound of digging was heard again, this time more dense than the last time I heard it.
Wan Datou blushed, his eyes skyrocketed, and he was furious, so wow, he dared to plot against Lao Tzu.
The two of them outside dug a pit and returned to the house, where was there still the shadow of Wan Datou, Wan Datou had already broken the rope and escaped from the window while they were out, of course, these two people deliberately left time for Wan Datou to break the rope.
Wan Datou went from wearing out the rope to escaping by climbing through the window, all under the secret watchful eye of the two.
"Do you think this can be done? It's too simple. Xia Xiaoba asked, how far should Wan Datou, who escaped, roll as far as he could at this time, instead of returning to retaliate in a desperate way.
Well, Xiao Ming's plan is too simple, if he directly handed over Wan Datou to the government for disposal or really buried it on the spot, where would he have so many roundabout tactics.
Most of them won't work!
Xia Xiaoba was very sad, after all, she was a girl, she had never seen blood, and she didn't dare to enter with a white knife and come out with a red knife.
This kind of thing is more appropriate for the prince to come forward.
"I think so." Uncle Ming replied thoughtfully, he had stayed in Pingcheng, and naturally heard of Wan Datou's notoriety, this person must be revenged, and his heart is narrow-minded, once he heard that Wan Datou broke the leg of an old man who sold vegetables, just because the other party's vegetable basket accidentally hit him.
"Let's go, keep up." Uncle Ming didn't say much, and chased in the direction of Wan Datou's escape, and there was only one way down the mountain here.
~~
Pingcheng, Mochizuki Xuan Tea House.
In the private room on the second floor, two young girls are sitting opposite each other and enjoying the street view downstairs.
"What did you call me for?" Zhou Lianrong looked at the person opposite and frowned, she visited in person many times in the past, but this guy was closed, but today she sent it to the door by herself.
Hum! Although I've only seen it today, don't think about how much good looks I give you.
"It's nothing, it's just to recuperate and be bored, come out to relieve boredom, you are also one of my few friends." Xiao Ming said with a smile and eagerly poured a cup of tea for Zhou Lianrong.
"Taste it quickly, this is a high-quality bitter tea." Tea is also produced in Heijo, but due to the topography, the amount of tea produced is small and bitter, and no one wants to drink it.
The short one is tall, and there are also good ones in this bitter tea.
Zhou Lianrong::......
Who wants to drink bitter tea, but he dislikes it in his heart, but his mouth is obediently pursed.
Oh, the bitter taste made her delicate eyebrows and eyes frown tightly, and a trace of impatience flashed in her eyes, calling her out was just to give her a bitter cup of tea, she really wanted to suspect Xiao Ming's ill intentions, if it was ten days ago, she would definitely lose her temper and go away.
Today, I held back.
Friend, what a wonderful word.
Zhou Lianrong thinks that she has a lot of good close friends in the boudoir, and when she thinks about it, most of these close friends in the boudoir are made to please her or she needs to make friends.
But Xiao Ming is different.
It's a friend of life and death.
