Kuha is dead, he can hide from the ghosts, but he can't hide from people.

A scene broke up unhappily, and they each went to their homes. Kuha's corpse was handed over to Chen Banzhu to take care of, after all, they can be regarded as masters and servants, since they are already lonely and widowed people without a father and mother, let the Drum Tower take care of the aftermath.

It is said that it is an operation, but in fact, a thin coffin was purchased on the second day and carried to the east of the cemetery for burial.

When Kuha was buried, Chen Banzhu said a sentence and said, "Poor man, this is how life should be." "Huzi didn't feel good when he heard it - this thief is too tricky!

"What the hell is 'life'?" Huzi asked Mr. Peng, "There are those who believe in fate, there are those who refuse to accept fate, and there are fortune tellers who tell fortunes to others." Is this 'fate' so mysterious? If everything is predestined, then what are we living for? ”

Mr. Peng sighed: "There is no such thing as 'life' in this world, it is enough to remember this sentence." ”

Huzi didn't understand, and asked again: "That's not right, Master, you think, thinking that I was born without a father and a mother, and people say that I am miserable; Zhao Xiaopu's kind is fateful. Isn't that fate? ”

Mr. Peng shook his head slightly: "Yes and no." This is not a Zen Buddha, but a word that I have lived for half my life. When you reach my age, Xu will understand a little. ”

Huzi asked again, but he couldn't ask anything. Kuha's death was a big bump in Huzi's psychology, this person had nothing to do with Huzi, but he still couldn't forget it. It's ridiculous, if you send a pot of tea to someone else's box, you can send your life together, isn't this "life"?

Master said no, probably not.

Lying on the kang, Huzi couldn't calm down in his heart and couldn't sleep for a long time. But I heard a sound not far from beside me: "Brother Huzi...... Brother? ”

It's Zhao Shankun, this kid is sleeping in the same room with him now. The day before yesterday, I was red-eyed with Huzi in the Drum Tower, and the two brothers and sisters haven't said a word in the past two days - today I went to help bury Kuha, and after the fork, the two of them still owe Li Lintang a beating.

Now it's almost the third watch, Huzi is not asleep, and Zhao Shankun is not asleep. Huzi didn't want to deal with Zhao Shankun, but after thinking about it, he still relented: "Why don't you sleep in the middle of the night?" ”

"I ...... I want to admit my mistake to my senior brother, "Zhao Shankun's voice is not much louder than a mosquito.

Huzi frowned and sat up: "What are you talking about?" When he sat up, Zhao Shankun didn't lie down. He sat cross-legged on the kang, his clothes untied, and his bedding unopened. It was Huzi who kept his back to him, so he was unconscious.

Zhao Shankun scratched his head, and it took a long time before he held back another sentence: "Senior brother, I was wrong, I shouldn't have said that kind of thing to you." ”

Huzi held back a smile and put on a straight face: "What kind of words shouldn't you say to me?" ”

Zhao Shankun's little face was already flushed: "I'...... I was angry at that time, and I couldn't care about the people around me, and I spoke hurtfully, saying that you stopped me from letting me save Sister Lingzhi. Say...... Say ......"

Seeing that Zhao Shankun "said" for a while and didn't say it, Huzi "poofed" for a while: "Come on, what to say, what a big deal, you really take it to heart, I didn't take it seriously." He also wanted to be generous, and he didn't remember that he didn't want to deal with Zhao Shankun just now.

Zhao Shankun is still a child after all, and he was happy to hear this: "Really! Brother Huzi, don't you blame me? ”

"What's the blame?" Huzi raised his hand, "Sleep, sleep!" When we get up tomorrow morning, we have to go to your master's place to find a beating. ”

The little brothers just wanted to lie down and sleep, when suddenly there was a "poof", and the oil lamp in the house turned on! The string of copper coins hanging from the curtain rod also rattled. Hu Zixin said badly, this is someone climbing over the wall into the courtyard!

On that day, the monk came to the temple to make trouble, and Mr. Peng set up a formation, one is to serve as a warning, and the other is to make people come and go!

This formation was originally for people, not demons and monsters, and after it was set up, it never made a sound. As soon as this formation moved, Huzi's first thought was that the demon monk was here again!

"Stay still!" Huzi drank with Zhao Shankun, picked up the knife placed at the head of the bed, pulled the robe, and ran out. Zhao Shankun was stunned for a moment, but he also put on his shoes and went to the ground, and chased him out.

Huzi's light body kung fu is not bad, stepping on the Gangxing Beidou, like a civet cat, silent. The oil lamp was dim, and it was lit in the house again, and the courtyard was still pitch black. But this is not a big deal for Huzi. His eyes were different from ordinary people, and seeing at night was nothing to him.

Huzi came to the well pavilion, and saw a person tiptoeing along the wall from a distance, and he didn't know what he was going to do.

It's not a big monk, Huzi saw his big braid dangling, from the face of a young man, Huzi estimated that this person should be about the same age as Lang Yunshu.

Is he a thief? It shouldn't be, not to mention that there is nothing worth stealing in the Sun Temple, and the clothes on this person's body don't look like ordinary people can afford to wear, and there is a pair of Western glasses on the bridge of his nose, like a scholar. Is it a grudge against the ghost family to do evil? It shouldn't be, this person's steps are vain, and he doesn't seem to have skills at all.

Huzi had doubts in his heart, so he made up his mind. Drawing the knife out of its sheath, he touched the back of this person, and slowly turned the spine of the knife inward and put it on his neck: "Your guests are coming to the door, and you are not welcomed, please forgive your sins." I just don't know why the guest climbed over the wall to enter the courtyard and didn't go through the main entrance. Knock twice to say hello, so that we can prepare tea and snacks to entertain you! ”

said it was a kind word, but Huzi's tone was fierce, as if he wanted to eat people. The man in front of him was also a coward, with the knife on his neck, cold against the flesh, straight and kneeling on the ground, pressing his voice and asking for mercy: "A good man spares his life!" I'm not a wicked person! It's just that he was desperate and helpless, so he made this decision and was admitted to the hospital over the wall! The hero spared my life, and in the coming day, Fang Mou will make a grass ring to report! ”

Come on, Huzi heard it, this is a well-read person, not an illiterate rough person. When I got closer, I saw that it was indeed a luxurious garment, but it was torn on the left side and broken on the right, stained with dust and mud, and carrying many blades of grass—this man had rolled all the way from the meadow?

"Senior brother! How's it going! It was Zhao Shankun who came running with the lamp. Huzi was a little unhappy: "Didn't you let you hide in the house, what kind of mess did you come out of?" ”

"Huzi, put the knife down." Mr. Peng walked out of the house with his hands behind his back, "This little brother entered another yard at night, he must have encountered some difficulty, so it is better to go to the house and talk." ”

Mr. Peng opened his mouth, and Huzi also took the knife. It's not that Mr. Peng is really generous, if someone else tries it, he has to force others with a knife! It's not that I'm unwary of this person, but I'm not afraid that something will happen to him. A scholar who has no power to tie the chicken, in this yard, is the bird in the cage, the worm in the jar, he can't get out, and he can't escape.

The scholar hurriedly stood up and bowed to the end: "Xuebin below, thank you for a lot of kindness." Seeing that several masters and apprentices were commensurate with each other, they must be people in the rivers and lakes, Fang Mou had something to ask for, but asked a few to agree. ”

"There doesn't make sense!" Huzi's knife handle stabbed this person in the waist, "Don't take an inch, your current identity is just a thief." Asking someone to do something, he also said that let's agree first, you have poured too much yellow soup! ”

Mr. Peng smiled: "Little brother, if there is something but it doesn't hurt to say it, tell it, and I can say yes or not." You also said that we people in the rivers and lakes naturally help out if there is anything we can do to see if we can do it. ”

The scholar who called himself Fang Xuebin became more and more impatient at this time, stomped on the spot, and gritted his teeth ruthlessly: "Hey! To tell you the truth, I am now wronged, and I am being wanted by the government, and I am trying to avoid the soldiers who have climbed over the wall and entered the hospital, and they should be chasing me here. I ask you to give me a place to hide, and once this is over, I will promise you a hundred taels of silver! ”

A hundred taels of silver? What a big deal! But when it is used to buy a life, it is worth it even how much money it is.

Helping the criminals who were being pursued by the government to hide, this silver is so hot! If the matter is revealed, it will be the same crime! If it is said that it is theft and adultery, it is still easy to say, at most it is exiled to Ningguta to fill the army. But what if it kills people and sets fires? That's going to be a head-off!

This time, Mr. Peng had to be careful, and his voice was much harsher: "Who are you?" If you had done murder and arson, I wouldn't have dared to protect you today! ”

In fact, this Fang Xuebin is also desperate, this officer and soldier is not far outside, maybe he will catch up when he will catch up, otherwise which of these people who have never lived in life will say these words? But in fact, he let someone catch him, but his life was in the palm of someone else's hand, and he could only guess that these people were kind-hearted and could help save his life.

"This hero is invited," Fang Xuebin arched his hand again, "The matter is now, that is, to make a real deal with you, I am a preparation of the regiment, in the words of the government, I am a chaotic people, a revolutionary party!" ”

"Ahh Good heroes! Huzi sighed.

He has also heard of this group, it is said that there are boxers from the former Boxers, and there are also people with a deep hatred of blood on their backs, and they have only one purpose - to kill Lao Maozi! Who doesn't love a peaceful life? But Lao Maozi kills! Some people lose their heads for no reason, and naturally some people are overwhelmed and stand up to fight with them. The regiment is said to be a group organized by the revolutionary party to resist the Russian army.

Mr. Peng clapped his hands: "Little brother, don't be afraid, you come with me!" With that, he took Fang Wenbin into the back room.

As soon as the two of them entered the house with their front feet, someone in the front yard of their back feet was "banging" on the door: "Open the door and open the door!" Government affairs! Open the door! ”

Li Lintang came out of the back room: "Huzi, open the door!" ”
