Chapter 44: Zhao Gan's birthday
The sound of birdsong woke up Cui Ranxin and the spring water who were still asleep.
At the mouth of the cave, Quanyuan and Cui Jiuan have already discussed, the time is about the same, if it goes well, Li Zheng should have taken the rescuers on the way back, they should also go back, there are old people and children involved, how can it take four or five days to go out.
Three days later, there was still a day to go out of the mountain, Quan Yuan decided to go to the swallow cave that day, and when everyone was settled, he took two people to secretly go out of the mountain to explore the situation.
Just came to the outside of the Swallow Cave, and bumped into the four Zhao Gandan who came out of it, and the two sides were tense in an instant, and the air was filled with a silent gunsmoke.
Who knew that Zhao Gandan pressed down the scabbard of his companion, stepped forward and bowed: "We are not here to arrest you, we are willing to throw away the sword to show our sincerity." ”
Zhao Gandan took the lead in throwing away the sword in his hand, and gestured to the three people with his eyes, the three of them looked at each other, and saw that the other party was overwhelming, and obediently threw away the sword in his hand.
"You think I'm going to be scared of you?" Izumi didn't plan to stop there.
"Then what did you do when you entered the mountain?" Cui Jiuan stopped Quan Yuan and walked up to Zhao Gandan to ask.
Zhao Gandan looked at the young man in front of him, the clothes of the young man who slept in the open for ten days had already been dusted, but Haoyue could not hide his edge even in the dark night, and he was secretly frightened No wonder the villagers of Longquan Village were able to escape this time, it turned out to be a noble person to help, it seems that this time the dog county order will definitely die.
"I'm here to give you a witness, to witness the evil deeds of that dog official, whether it is in front of Lord Li or to the Hades Palace, I, Zhao Gandan, also want to seek justice for everyone in Longquan Village."
The villagers were filled with indignation when they saw what Zhao Gandan said, let down their vigilance, no longer embarrassed them, took care of themselves into the grotto, put down their things, and took the young and strong ones to hunt, the three soldiers heard the hunting and volunteered to follow, they have not eaten and slept well these days, how can they miss the opportunity to eat, but they are not embarrassed to eat and drink for nothing, so they go to hunt some game.
Cui Jiuan walked to the side of Zhao Gandan, who was alone, and there were occasional thumb-thick fish swimming in the stream in front of him.
"Do you have a grudge against Luo Changxin?"
The young man's words startled Zhao Gandan.
"It's a sea of blood feud."
"Tell me about it."
In the face of the young man's request, Zhao Gandan did not feel abrupt, but felt a little moved in his heart, if he didn't find someone to talk to, Zhao Gandan felt that he was about to be suffocated by this hatred, and he lost his mind.
"My parents died early, there is a sister who depends on each other, and then I entered the county government as a servant, one day I came to look for my sister was bumped into by Luo Changxin's dog official, he actually forcibly defiled my sister. My stupid sister was afraid that I would retaliate against the dog officer, so she endured it alone, and blamed me for being careless, and my sister was getting haggard day by day, but I didn't know - and then my sister's belly was getting bigger and bigger, and she couldn't hide it, and she still didn't say anything under my questioning. Suddenly, one day my family went to the water, and my sister failed to escape a corpse and two lives, and I secretly adjusted the errand to know that it was the dog official and his evil mother-in-law who did it, and the dog officer was well-known for his fear, and the evil woman knew that my sister was pregnant, and she forced the dog officer to burn my sister and the seven-month-old child in her belly alive-" Speaking of this, Zhao Gandan was emotional and couldn't say it anymore, the seven-foot man was brave and brave, and he endured humiliation only for revenge, and he hit it with one blow.
"Luo Changxin's wife is surnamed Shen?" Cui Jiuan asked simply.
Zhao Gandan, who gradually regained his calm, clenched his fists and said hatefully: "Yes, I heard that Master Shen has been rising step by step in Beijing, and I have been waiting for an opportunity, but I almost couldn't help it several times, and I wanted to break the net." ”
"You did the right thing, hit a stone with an egg, it is better to kill with a knife, not to mention that he is reaping the consequences."
"But I want to kill him with my own hands, otherwise it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart."
"What's so hard about that! It's inconvenient to be an executioner. The boy dropped this sentence and left, pulling out the girl who was hiding in the bushes around the corner and eavesdropping.
Zhao Gandan's misty eyes, which remained in place, instantly regained his vitality, yes, he still has the opportunity to kill the enemy with his own hands, if it is not for marrying a wife and having children, he will not hesitate to go with his sister, but he still has responsibilities to fulfill in this world.
"Your eavesdropping habit has become more and more proficient!" Pulling the girl's ears without mercy.
Cui Ranxin, who was in pain, hurriedly begged for mercy: "Second brother, I was wrong, I don't dare anymore." ”
"That's what you said last time, it seems that you have to be punished to remember."
"How is it punished?" The girl asked, tilting her head.
"I'm so dirty, I'm going to wash it, you can help me get the wind." When Cui Jiuan talked about taking a bath, he thought that the first few times he was preparing to wash by the stream, he found that those women were watching by washing dishes, vegetables, and handkerchiefs, so that he never had a chance to wash.
"Second brother, this is not good, although you and I are brother and sister, but we have both grown up, and men and women are not close." Cui Ranxin hurriedly refused.
"What is not kissed? I asked you to wind it, but I didn't ask you to wash it for me. ”
Cui Ran was even more embarrassed when she heard this, what she was thinking about just now, she actually misunderstood her second brother's words, it was so embarrassing.
"Okay, then you wash faster."
Seeing that the girl reluctantly agreed, Cui Jiu'an pulled the other party and was just about to walk away, when he heard the voice of the spring water behind him: "Xin'er, Brother Jiu'an, where are you going?" ”
"My brother wants to—"
"Don't do anything, just look at the scenery." Cui Jiuan hurriedly interrupted Cui Ranxin's words.
"Why don't you let me say that?" Cui Ranxin asked quietly.
Cui Jiuan frowned and kept silent, he didn't want to tell the other party that the spring water was also peeking in the group of women.
"You haven't seen enough of this scenery in the mountains in the past ten days, and I'm looking forward to my father coming to pick us up soon."
"Uh-huh." Cui Ran nodded again and again, after walking for so many days, I don't know if my father-in-law will be worried.
"You smell it, I'm all spoiled." Quan Shui said and handed his arm to Cui Ranxinwen, Cui Jiuan turned his head and took a step back.
When Quan Shui saw Cui Jiu'an's movements, he thought that the other party was disgusted with the bad smell on his body, and he was even more depressed, so he pulled Cui Ranxin and left.
Cui Ranxin turned his head and said silently: "Second brother, bear with me, the smell of spring water is bigger than yours." ”
Cui Jiuan was speechless, squatted down and picked up the clear mountain spring and washed his face, it seemed that his desire to wash it was shattered.
Here a fire is lit to cook, and there is a lot of game to be brought back, and after a while, a hearty dinner is ready, and just as everyone is immersed in eating, a voice is heard.
"Mother, listen, that's Daddy's voice." Izumi stood up excitedly.
Li Zhengjia didn't speak, just nodded desperately, tears of excitement slipped
It flowed out, and she couldn't sleep at night for this period of worry, for fear that something would happen to them.
Except for the ignorant child, everyone else dropped the food in their hands and ran out of the grotto to look.
"Daddy—we're here—"
Hearing the echo, Li Zheng and the four people who were traveling with him all ran to the Swallow Cave.
"I knew you were here." Erlang pulled his wife out of the crowd, looked at her carefully, and then hugged the person into his arms in distress.
"Thanks to Jiro, it's he who estimates that you might be here." Rizheng added.
"Lizheng, why is it earlier than expected?" Izumi asked.
"Don't you know, then Lord Li was furious when he heard about this, and sent a lot of officers and soldiers to rush over day and night, and Lord Li himself came over in person."
"Let's go, talk inside, drink some water first." Li Zhengjia interrupted the person who was still going to give a speech and pulled him into the Swallow Cave.
