Chapter Ninety-Nine: Yang Qian's Death
Hearing that Zhao Zhuang still had a few jars of wine buried, Song Jiu had some other thoughts in his heart. However, he didn't rush to tell Zhao Zhuang, but suppressed the idea for the time being without squeaking.
After resting for a while after dinner, Song Jiu and Zhao Zhuang went out to go around their house, as if it was dark and rainy today, I don't know if the thief will come, go around and try their luck.
The evening song sat under the eaves, and the rain outside at this time was already a lot lighter, and the sound of the falling rain was very comfortable, which made people feel calm.
She was a little sleepy when she sat down, and Du Chun came out with hot water, just in time to see her sleepy head kept nodding.
Du Chun turned into the stove room and fetched a basin of hot water for people, woke people up, and asked her to wash her face and feet.
I don't know when Song Jiu and the others will come back, and they are too sleepy, so Wan Ge simply washed his face and went to sleep first.
Song Jiu, who was worried about the evening song, was walking around with Zhao Zhuang outside their yard at this time, and didn't see anything unusual, and was about to go back and withdraw his feet, when he suddenly heard a clangling sound, as if something had been knocked over.
The two glanced at each other, tacitly accepted the umbrella and quietly touched the yard, without alarming the people inside.
They came to the window of the stove room, and there was a faint sound from inside. Song Jiu reached out and gently poked a hole in the window paper, but found that the window seemed to be covered with a black cloth.
He suddenly realized, no wonder the people inside lived for a few days, and they also lit oil lamps and no one found them, it turned out that they used something to block the light.
The people in the stove didn't know that the master's house was outside, and they were still eating dinner leisurely.
When Zhao Zhuang heard that there were thieves in Song Jiu's house and they had lived there for several days, he didn't believe it very much.
You think, how can you? After living in it for so many days, no one in the village even found out. Now that I have seen it myself, I have to believe it.
"What do we do now? Rush in? Zhao Zhuang asked in a low voice to Song Jiu.
Song Jiu listened again, and then nodded to Zhao Zhuang, Zhao Zhuang immediately understood, and rushed up with a shout and kicked the door open: "Little thief, where is it hidden." ”
The people inside didn't seem to expect someone to break in at this time, and they panicked. As soon as he extinguished the oil lamp on the table, he picked up the soup and poured it on Zhao Zhuang, and the soup was very hot not long after it came out of the pot. Zhao Zhuang didn't react at the time, and was immediately caught off guard.
The man took advantage of the chaos to rush out, and Zhao Zhuang was so anxious that he shouted for Song Jiu to stop him. target
Song Jiu blocked the door and arrested the person. But when he saw the face, his eyes changed: "Yang Qian." ”
Yang Qian lifted her foot in a panic and kicked her head at Song Jiu, Song Jiu dodged to the side, and the strength of his hand was slightly loose, and the man took the opportunity to break free and run outside.
"Brother Song, what's the matter with you, Old Song, why did you let people run away." Zhao Zhuang ran out, just in time to see people running away, he was so angry that he couldn't do it.
Song Jiu didn't say anything, and chased in the direction where the person ran away.
Yang Qian ran to the back mountain in a panic, there were many trees and jungles on the mountain, and it was difficult to find someone at night. As long as they hide in the mountains and forests, it will be difficult for them to find themselves.
It's just that the mountain road is not easy to walk, but now that it is raining again, the road is even more difficult. Several times she slipped under her feet, tripped over branches and vines, and almost fell. But she didn't dare to stop, she knew that Song Jiu and they were just behind her, and if she didn't run or ran slowly, she would only have to wait to be caught.
Zhao Zhuang was chasing after him, but as soon as he entered the mountain, he lost the chase.
Entering the mountains and forests may indeed be easy for others to chase people away, but Song Jiu is different. In the past, he used to go up to the mountains to hunt at night, and it can be said that there is no one else in the village who is most familiar with this area.
I thought that I could get rid of people by running into the mountains, but I didn't think that people entering the mountains would be the same as tigers coming out of the cage. Yang Qian had no choice but to grit her teeth and continue to run.
The more he went up the mountain, the steeper and more difficult it became, Song Jiu's eyes flashed, intentionally or unintentionally controlling the distance between the two, forcing Yang Qian to flee in one direction.
After a chase between the hunter and the prey, the prey was finally forced to the edge of the cliff under the ability of the hunter. By the time the prey found itself and reacted, the retreat had been blocked by the hunter.
The prey suddenly understood: "You let me go just now on purpose. ”
The rain was still falling, and it was falling on the leaves. Yang Qian stood in front of the cliff, and she was only a few steps away from the cliff.
"I don't understand, why." stumbling all the way away, she looked embarrassed. In particular, the clothes were scratched a lot by the branches, and the skirt was full of mud and dirty.
Song Jiu was in the middle of the only way to retreat, he didn't answer Yang Qian's question, but said inexplicably: "You have no way out." He said chilling things in a flat tone.
Yang Qian's pupils shrank, and she stared at Song Jiu with tense eyes. She smelled something unusual from his words, and now there was a cliff behind her, and the chance of surviving from this fall could be said to be zero. Her only way to survive was cut off by Song Jiu.
"You're going to kill me." Yang Qian stared at Song Jiu firmly.
At this time, a thunderbolt fell, and a flash of lightning that broke through the sky illuminated Song Jiu's face, allowing her to clearly see the killing intent in the other party's eyes. It's so terrible, it's like a judge who has come to ask for his life. made her heart cold, and she became more and more sure of Song Jiu's desire for her own life. It's just that she can't understand why, why Song Jiu wants her life.
"Why? Where have I offended you? ”
Song Jiu still didn't answer her words, but just approached Yang Qian step by step. He firmly believes that sometimes things fail entirely because of a lot of nonsense and procrastination.
"You can't kill me, you have to be caught for murder. You let me go, I'll give you whatever you want. I beg you, let me go! Yang Qian was forced to the edge of the cliff, at this time she was only one step away from death, a real step away.
"I, I, I am the person the government wants to arrest, yes, there is a bounty, and there is a reward for grabbing two taels of silver for catching me. I'm willing to surrender with you, please let me go!" ”
"I don't think you may know that although I am not rich now, I am not short of those two taels of silver for the time being. In contrast, I think worries are more important. Song Yu said as he continued to approach Yang Qian little by little.
Yang Qian was so scared that her voice was trembling. But he still didn't give up and asked Song Jiu why, even if she died, she had to let her die to understand.
I don't know if I was annoyed by her, or how I got it, the strange Song Jiu actually stopped. Seeing this, just when she was relieved and felt that she still had a chance, Song Jiu suddenly slammed forward two steps, and Yang Qian, who was already nervous, subconsciously retreated in shock.
"Ahh
"Boom-boom-"
Zhao Zhuang, who chased halfway up the mountain, seemed to hear something, turned his head to look over, but there seemed to be nothing but the deafening thunder.
The woman's scream was perfectly muffled by the thunder that split the sky, and probably no one heard this frightened scream except for Song Yu, who was standing in front of the cliff at this time.
Song Yu stood in front of the cliff, lowered his eyes to look at the bottomless cliff, and turned to leave.
When I was going down the mountain, I met Zhao Zhuang, who was still walking up.
"Brother Song, did you catch up?" Zhao Zhuang asked.
Song Jiu shook his head and said no, he chased people away.
It was dark everywhere in the mountains, and there was grass everywhere, and it was raining again. It's hard to walk, but now it's even harder.
Zhao Zhuang took a sip, wiped the rain on his face and scolded: "This girl can run away." ”
Song Jiu sighed and said, "Go back!" Don't catch up with someone at that time, and you slip and fall and get hurt. ”
Although Zhao Zhuang is a little unwilling, looking at the current situation, he is unwilling and has no choice.
The mountain is so big, so wide, and there is darkness everywhere, and the devil knows where the stinky woman is hiding.
"Well, it's cheap for her today. I won't have that luck next time. ”
didn't catch anyone, and the two of them could only turn around and go back down the mountain. Along the way, Zhao Zhuang was very uneasy.
The two big men didn't even catch anyone, and they were embarrassed to say it.
Du Chun in the house was still waiting for the two of them to sleep, thinking about how these two people had been out for so long and still wouldn't come, could it be that something had happened!
Just as she was thinking about it, she heard the voices of two people talking outside, and she hurriedly opened the door and came out: "Why did you go so far....... Oh, what are you doing here, it's like this. ”
The two of them were soaking wet, and their clothes were scraped with several holes in the branches. When Zhao Zhuang went down the mountain in the middle, he also fell, and there was a lot of mud on his hands and buttocks.
"Don't mention it, I'm so angry."
The rabbits sent to his hands were all gone, and he was so angry that he didn't want to say anything.
"I'm so mad at you." Du Chun heard it in a fog.
"He said that people ran away, and he was angry." Song Jiu followed into the house and explained to Du Chun.
"Caught someone?"
"No, almost." Zhao Zhuang sat on the stool and rested, very angry: "That woman will run very much, and she will disappear in the mountains." ”
Du Chun understood, he didn't catch it after seeing it, no wonder he was so angry.
"Do you see who it is?"
"I see it clearly, it's Yang Qian's mother-in-law." Zhao Zhuang gritted his teeth as he spoke.
"It's her! She's still in the village? Then she's bold enough. Hearing that it was Yang Qian, Du Chun was very surprised.
I haven't seen her appear for so long, and I haven't heard the news from the government that she was arrested. Everyone wondered if she ran out, but they didn't expect that people would be so bold and hide under everyone's noses, and no one found out.
"Not really."
When he saw people, he was also surprised.
Zhao Zhuang ripped his shirt, his chest was red, and he still had some hot pain. It was Yang Qian's splashing of soup before, and he couldn't dodge and was splashed. At that time, it hurt so much that he bared his teeth, which gave people a chance to escape.
