Chapter 4 Murder in the city
A piece of ordinary carrion moved, yes, thump, thump,
Zhong Wenbin rubbed his eyes, making sure that he was not mistaken, his heart was furious, what happened all day was like a joke, anyone who has ever seen meat will move by itself, it is too.
"What the, hell!" Zhong Wenbin nervously touched it with his foot, the carrion trembled again, and hurriedly shrank back, he had lived for more than 20 years, this kind of strange thing was the first time he had encountered it.
At this time, the night was dark and the wind was high, the four fields were dark, and a cold wind blew, like a hand, Zhong Wenbin felt that his neck was gently caressed, and he was so frightened that he turned his head and ran away without saying a word.
But as soon as he ran out of ten meters, Zhong Wenbin immediately stopped, and felt that this thing was strange, since Liu Youlan hinted at it, it means that this thing must be very valuable.
Although he was afraid, Zhong Wenbin still had the courage to walk back, tore off the corner of his tattered clothes, and was ruthless in his heart, so he simply wrapped this piece of carrion directly, and then put it in his pocket.
That night, Zhong Wenbin walked alone for several miles, and finally came to a small place called Sanyuan Town, found a dead end, hid in the corner and made do with sleep.
It may have been tossed in the past few days, Zhong Wenbin had a dream, in which a black cat stood on the ancient temple that had collapsed, staring at him with a pair of dark blue eyes.
That eye was the same as Liu Youlan's, it looked quite evil, the black cat's eyes were cold, Zhong Wenbin felt cold all over, and the feeling of being shrouded in death was too terrifying.
After a long time, the black cat suddenly barked, and then its whole body pounced on it like a bolt of lightning.
Zhong Wenbin was taken aback, and opened his eyes in a hurry, it was already dawn outside, he wiped the sweat on his face, his back was wet, the dream just now was too real, a little scary.
Outside the alley, there was a crowd of people on the street, as a begging and wandering refugee, Zhong Wenbin naturally failed to attract anyone's attention, maybe no one would come to collect the body when he died, he held his stomach, feeling that if he didn't eat something, he would really die.
Immediately, Zhong Wenbin hurriedly got up, walked out of the alley and was about to get something to eat, probably dizzy from hunger, lowered his head and accidentally bumped into a person, and immediately fell to the ground.
"Stinky boy, don't you have long eyes?" The person scolded angrily and kicked him.
Zhong Wenbin stood up angrily, and just wanted to scold angrily, when he saw the person in front of him, he was shocked, this is the big gold tooth, the horse thief who jumped into the river and fled last night, but he didn't expect to stand here.
"I'm sorry!" Zhong Wenbin hurriedly lowered his head to escape, but the big golden tooth seemed to notice that something was wrong: "Hey, why are you here?" ”
Zhong Wenbin trembled in his heart, he had seen the methods of the big golden tooth, and he ran away, and the big golden tooth immediately took out his gun and hit it in the air.
"Catch him for me!" By the side of the big golden tooth, more than a dozen big men instantly pounced.
Zhong Wenbin also had no strength, he didn't dare to struggle, and was pressed to the ground: "Let go of me, let go of me!" ”
The big gold tooth had a hideous face and swaggered over, and the poor people around him were very afraid, who was willing to meddle in these days.
"Boy, let me ask you, has Liu Xiangbao seen it?" The big gold tooth smiled darkly, and the gold tooth made people's hearts chill.
"I didn't ...... No! "How dare Zhong Wenbin tell the truth, if he is known to be hiding in the dark and peeking, it will be over.
The big golden tooth is used to being domineering, and when he saw Zhong Wenbin's dirty appearance, he kicked his feet hard, and then spit: "Count your kid unlucky today, take it away!" ”
After speaking, several big men came over and lifted Zhong Wenbin up, then tied him with a rope, and finally rushed forward like pinching ants.
Zhong Wenbin felt aggrieved, he had just escaped from the hands of those gangs of Diao Min, and now he was caught again, what kind of sin did he do in his last life.
Subsequently, everyone arrived in front of the first City God Temple in the town, and Zhong Wenbin saw three people kneeling in front of the City God Temple, all of them were gray and dead, and when they saw Zhong Wenbin, they just glanced at Zhong Wenbin and lowered their heads.
What is this for, Zhong Wenbin immediately understood, if he didn't guess wrong, this was going to be executed, which meant beheading.
The big golden tooth stepped forward and muttered in the ear of one of the slightly chubby young men, and then the young man looked back, smiled at Zhong Wenbin, and immediately got up and entered the City God Temple.
Zhong Wenbin was tied up and knelt on the ground, he understood, his heart was burning with anger, and as soon as fear and fear came up, he scolded at the big gold tooth: "Your uncle, treat Lao Tzu as a substitute for the dead." ”
The big golden tooth sneered: "If you have the ability, you can also get ten oceans." ”
Zhong Wenbin's poor jingle sounded, how could he have any money, although he was angry, but he had no way at all, so he could only secretly complain to himself, thinking that he would admit it.
Around the City God Temple, surrounded by ordinary people, their eyes were very indifferent, and they were all watching the excitement.
Later, the big golden tooth held a gun in his hand and fired a shot at a person next to him, and the guy immediately had a bloody hole in his head, and the blood flowed out, and he couldn't see it.
Although Zhong Wenbin had seen a lot of dead people, he still shuddered, closed his eyes deadly, and fired a series of shots from the big gold teeth in the back, and a person fell next to him again.
When it was Zhong Wenbin's turn, the big golden tooth paused: "If any of you collude with that Liu Xiangbao today, you will end up with them." ”
He seemed to say this to the onlookers, Zhong Wenbin secretly complained, he didn't know Liu Xiangbao, and he was going to suffer this crime.
Seeing the moment of life and death, suddenly, there were several gunshots on the street in the distance, the crowd scattered, the big gold tooth heard the sound, and quickly rushed over, Zhong Wenbin looked at the side suspiciously.
In the City God Temple, the young fat man poked his head out timidly, and after looking around, he hurriedly ran over to help Zhong Wenbin untie the rope.
"Run, this place can't stay." The fat man quickly untied the rope, Zhong Wenbin also hurriedly stood up, and the two quickly escaped into the crowd.
Waiting for a river outside the town, the fat man sat on the grass, panting, Zhong Wenbin's mouth was dry, he lay down by the river and drank water, wiped his mouth after drinking, and turned around and asked, "Fatty, why do they want to kill you?" ”
The fat man looked straightforward, and sighed: "It's not the second master who has made Uncle Ben miserable." ”
The fat man's name is Hu Er, is a native of Sanyuan Town, does some antique trading on weekdays, and people from the three religions and nine streams have contact, according to him, Liu Xiangbao is the second master of the local horse thief camp, and he is also a figure with a background, Hu Er, as a protégé of the second master, often comes and goes, and the secret is also known.
Zhong Wenbin was very curious, a second-in-command didn't enjoy it, so he went to Dongshan Village to toss something.
After the two chatted briefly for a while, Hu Er suddenly lowered his voice: "Little brother, do you believe that there are dragons in this world?" ”
Zhong Wenbin was stunned and shook his head: "I don't believe it!" ”
Hu Er opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but waved his hand again: "It's also a scourge to tell you!" ”
After speaking, he got up and prepared to leave, Zhong Wenbin was confused, this person was paranoid, and he didn't bother to pay attention to it, so he was about to get up, and suddenly, the carrion in his arms fell out.
Hu Er, who originally got up to leave, immediately glared at the boss, and hurriedly grabbed it: "Little brother, where did you get this thing?" ”
Zhong Wenbin hurriedly snatched it back, and hesitated: "This is dog meat, I caught it myself." ”
Hu Er smiled wickedly and stepped forward to hook up: "It seems that you are also the protégé of the second master, go, I'll take you to eat something, and then go to see the second master!" ”
This guy mistook Zhong Wenbin for Liu Xiangbao's protégé, he originally wanted to escape, but when he heard that there was something to eat, he couldn't help but swallow two mouthfuls of saliva, he hadn't eaten for several days, and the temptation was too great.
So Hu Er dragged Zhong Wenbin to a dilapidated tavern outside the town, where the two ordered some food.
After days of starvation, Zhong Wenbin's eyes were bright, and he ate all the vegetables, during which Hu Er also ran to get a jar of liquor.
"Little brother, eat more, you're welcome." Hu Er smiled.
Zhong Wenbin didn't doubt him, he had already taken a daze, and drank the wine, but after a while, his brain was dizzy, and the whole person lay on the table.
When he woke up, it was already dark, and Hu Er had already left, Zhong Wenbin covered his dizzy head and sat outside the tavern.
