Chapter 12 Picking Up a Life

At this point, the third master turned his head to look at me and the old ruffian, and saw that the two of them listened to themselves with relish, originally thinking that they were working so hard to restore the scene of the year, these two people could be a little nervous, but now they don't even have the slightest sense of being nervous and afraid, and they are a little surprised in their hearts, and they can't help but ask: "Is it that my brother I said not enough exciting, why aren't the two brothers nervous at all?" ”

In the past few years, I have been watching Shanghua Xunxian Lu at home, and there are countless strange and terrifying things told in it, although the things told by the third master at this time are bizarre and terrifying, but they are only when the story is heard, but they are not afraid. At this time, he didn't answer the words of the third master, but just said: "According to the third master, you should have met the zongzi, and it is still an extremely powerful zongzi." If you had not entered through the cave through the door of the tomb, I am afraid that you would not have been able to escape. ”

The old ruffian hadn't read much of the book, so he grinned and said, "What's there to be afraid of, I'm in the habit of rolling in the pile of dead people every day on the battlefield, life and death." Now it's two machine guns pointed at me, and Lao Tzu can carry a dynamite bag to make a death charge. ”

After listening to the words of the two, the third master couldn't help but exhale lightly, and said with a sigh: "The two elder brothers are really courageous, what the elder brother Qin said is extremely true, and I can be regarded as picking up a life." ”

Seeing that the third master still wanted to sigh again, the old ruffian couldn't bear it, and asked, "How did you turn your head?" Is the zongzi in front of you? ”

The third master then said: "Yes, when I turned my head, the speed of the zongzi was already a lot faster, and I could reach in front of me when I saw it, and I could reach out and pull me off the rope after taking another step. Seeing that I was about to die, the rope pulled upwards so quickly that I simply closed my eyes and resigned myself to fate, until my friend dragged me out of the thief's hole, and I felt that I was alive again. When I opened my eyes, I realized that it was a peer who came to pick up the leak and saved me by mistake. ”

After listening to this, the old ruffian and I sighed again and again that the third master was really fateful, not only was he not afraid, but he even had some yearning for this kind of desperate adventure.

While the three of them were talking, the donkey cart had already arrived at the edge of Shijiazhai, and after several turns, it arrived at the door of Shi's third master's house. I and the old ruffian looked at it, the third master's house is really a little cold, the house is still a thatched house a year ago, there is only a donkey shed made of wood in the yard, the wood does not know how long ago it was, there are wormholes on it, and the whole donkey shed feels like it will collapse when touched.

The old ruffian jumped off the donkey cart, frowned, and said, "I said Third Master, you are also a person who has seen zongzi, why is this family like this." ”

The third master just laughed dryly, but he didn't answer.

I think about the two tragic encounters in my family, and I can probably understand it, and I think that with the reputation of the third master, it would be good if the thatched house was not burned.

At this time, it was already six o'clock in the afternoon, and the three of them entered the third master's house to find a stool to rest, the old ruffian yelled that he was hungry and asked the third master to buy some wine and food.

The third master didn't have a lot of money in his pocket, he said before that he wanted to invite the two of them to drink two cups, but he didn't plan to pay for it, at this time, his face changed constantly, and he finally returned to the back room as if he had made up his mind, and after a while, he took out a small white cloth bag and said: "Okay, brother, all my belongings are here, today I simply bought all the wine and food, and the two brothers got drunk and rested!" With that, he turned around and went out.

The old ruffian was a little confused by the third master, and asked me in a daze: "Which tendon is wrong with this old man?" Why did you suddenly go out so open-mindedly. ”

I thought about it, understood the key, and said: Haha, you just eat and drink, and get ready to get rich. “

After that, I stood up and walked around the third master's house, and only then did I understand why people always love to be more miserable, and when I see people who are worse than myself, no matter how miserable people are, they will feel that they are actually in a good situation, I feel that my home is already poor, but the third master's house is not even ringing.

The old Qin family still has a few brick houses to build a foundation, but there is no brick house in the third master's house, and there are no decent objects in the house, and even the bed is actually built with a wooden board and a few bricks.

I turned around and sat back on the stool, the old ruffian reached out and handed over a cigarette, the two of them just lit it, the third master came back with wine and food, and said as soon as he entered the door: "Two catties of cooked beef, one roast chicken, three catties of old roast, I don't want anything today, just drink a good drink." ”

The old ruffian already likes to drink, but at this time, he was also infected by the sudden pride of the third master, and he didn't care about eating, so he picked up a bowl and stuffed a big bowl of old roast, and said: "It's really happy!" ”

The third master and I also filled the wine with each other, and the three of us touched a glass and drank it all in one go.

Then the three of them didn't use chopsticks, they just grabbed the beef and tore the chicken thighs. Eating meat and drinking a lot, if people who don't know see it, they are afraid that they will turn around and run, mistakenly thinking that they have entered a bandit's den.

After three rounds of drinking, except for the old ruffian, the third master and I were a little drunk, and I felt that it was almost time, so I said: "Third master, where is Chen Ping's treasure, just say it, let's go and do it together." ”

When the old ruffian heard my words, he suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly echoed: "Yes, third master, don't worry, I will never lose you if I find a place." ”

As soon as the third master changed his drinking state, he no longer hid it, and said: "Originally, I wanted to bring this matter into the coffin all the time, but I was really unwilling to live such a down-and-down life, so I simply had a fight with the two brothers." Before he finished speaking, he raised the bowl and took another sip, and then said:

"Thirty years ago, when the Yellow River flooded and the whole village was flooded, everyone ran to the mountains behind the village to avoid the river, and I followed.

Later, after a few days, more and more people ran to the back mountain to take refuge, I thought the big guy was too crowded in one place, so one day I simply walked along the mountain road to the depths of the mountain forest, although I have been to the back mountain many times, but I have been to check the firewood, dig some wild vegetables, never go to the depths, plus until the night, for a time I was lost.

So I walked around in the depths of the back mountain, and then I was so tired that I simply went directly to a relatively high tree, ready to make do with it all night, but as soon as I went up, I heard movement under the tree.
