Lao Maozi's soldiers have been here for a long time. There is no change in the city and outside the city, it is nothing more than the errand soldiers patrolling the streets, mixed with foreign soldiers running together, nothing more than the grain depot being completely taken over by foreigners, nothing more than the burned church and starting repairs, nothing more than the railway station that has been set off to continue to build.

Serving the flag man is serving, and serving foreigners is also serving. Therefore, the lives of ordinary people in Fucheng are still as usual.

Moreover, there are not many of these foreigners who stay in Changtu Province. At that time, it was said that Lao Maozi sent an army of 160,000 troops to march south, how could it be the more than 10,000 soldiers and horses he saw when he entered the city under the stationing in such a small place as Changtu Mansion? However, a thousand soldiers were left to defend the city, and the rest were put in order in Changtu for four or five days before they set out on the road and went south.

Merchants open boards, singing operas and storytelling, begging on the streets, and crop households, men and women weaving, it is still a scene of harmony and peace.

Which one is not peaceful? Zhao Buddha, Zhao's rich man's family is not peaceful! Up and down the family, from the old lady and wife, down to the people who raise flowers, feed fish, and cook on fires, a family of forty-five died at home!

It was really an unprovoked disaster from the sky. This old Maozi also took a reason for killing people, saying that this Zhao Buddha's family fornicated with the Boxers and was the financial owner of the boxers. Not all of them died in the battle of the Boxers, and some were captured alive by Lao Maozi. I wanted to torture and interrogate where the Boxers were hiding, but I didn't want to take it down not long after someone wanted to report and expose it in order to survive, and wanted to make meritorious contributions.

People on the battlefield, surrounded by robes are all men who sacrifice their lives for righteousness, and at that time they believe that they are possessed by immortals, and they have the courage of ten thousand people, so they are naturally fearless and fearless, and they are free when they do not survive, but they want a reputation after death.

After being caught, that's not the case. is not a tough guy who is not afraid of death at all, but when he saw the blood stained on the spot, he became a prisoner. I am not afraid of the knife on the neck, but I am afraid of the torture in the cell. There are those who stuffed donkey dung in their brains, and explained clearly the matter of Buddha Zhao's undertaking of the Boxer Rebellion's food and clothing.

When a person speaks, others are also scrambling, lest they speak late, and they will not have the opportunity to "make meritorious contributions". So six or seven of these captives came out, and he explained how Zhao Buddha could contact the White Flower Virgin, how to appoint people to transport grain and grass, how to change the appearance of these people after they died in Ma Zhonghe, and how to provide food, clothing, shelter and transportation for the members stationed outside the city when the city of Changtu was closed.

One by one, since it is clear, then Lao Maozi naturally can't keep this Zhao Buddha! There is no need to verify, without saying a word, the officer ordered a team, knocked on the door of Zhao Foye's house, and rushed in to kill anyone he saw!

After the killing was clean, the Russian army entrusted the prefect's yamen to post a notice to tell the people - this is the end of destroying the friendship between the Qing and Russia!

The commander of the Russian army, named Andrei, lived here the next day after all the corpses in the Zhao family's mansion were removed. From that day on, this house became the temporary headquarters of the Russian army in Changtu.

And this Andrei officer did not leave with the large army, but settled down in this Changtu province. With his heels, he knew that his task was to garrison the granary!

It has been eight days since Zhao Xiaopu came to Sun Mountain. slept in a room with Huzi, ate food and drank water, but never said a word again. Either sitting on the kang and rubbing his handkerchief, or looking at the tiger who was copying talismans and practicing martial arts in a daze, after that, this Zhao puppy was like a walking corpse.

And it's no wonder.

First, he saw with his own eyes that his child daughter-in-law who took care of him died at the hands of others, and when he woke up, he heard that he was the only one who survived and escaped from the 46 families in his family...... It's an individual who can't stand it. What's more, Zhao Xiaopui is just a child who has not achieved mental success and has been spoiled since childhood?

Speaking of that day, that group of old hairy men rushed into the Zhao family's mansion like a fierce god, and killed anyone they saw! Huzi stunned Zhao Xiaopu, who was hiding in the firewood stack, trembling, and could only hide motionless. Huzi begged the gods and goddesses he knew one by one, but he begged to be able to live.

After killing someone, the corpse always has to be disposed of. But even if those old hairy people carried the corpses out of this cross-courtyard, Huzi still didn't dare to breathe. Just secretly summoned a paper puppet.

The paper puppet of the ghost family gate can be regarded as a unique secret method, and its magic is endless. Fighting with people can sweep the formation, and dealing with ordinary people can make ghosts pretend to be gods, and at this time, Huzi wants to take this thing as his eyes and ears.

The paper puppet took a breath of the tiger and immediately changed into an old woman in gray linen clothes. As it flew towards the outside of the courtyard, it gradually turned into a faint smoke.

With the eyes and ears of the paper puppet, Huzi checked the inside and outside of the Zhao family's mansion, saw the front and back on the street, and secretly congratulated himself that he was cautious.

The Russian soldiers did not retreat, but piled up the corpses in one place in the courtyard, found a few soldiers from the green battalion, put the horses in Zhao Foye's house, and transported the corpses in the mansion out! The three of them got together, smoking foreign cigarettes, talking and chatting with people they didn't understand, laughing a few times from time to time, and not paying any attention to the killing just now.

The tiger just pressed the dog and lay down in the firewood stack, motionless. It wasn't until the twilight was dull, the moon was rising, and only a few soldiers were left at the front and back yard gates in the mansion to guard, that Huzi cautiously leaned out of the firewood stack, tied Zhao Xiaopu's belt to his back, and climbed out along the courtyard wall behind the kitchen.

At this moment, there was no one on the street, except for the soldiers patrolling the city and Lao Maozi, there was no one in sight. But these people are very scattered, Huzi has a paper puppet as his eyes and ears, and he also secretly stepped on the path to shuttle, and there was no danger along the way, taking this Zhao puppy and following the old willow tree not far from the back door of the Drum Tower, and turned into the courtyard.

There was little gossip here, and it was said that on the third day, the government sounded the gong and issued a ban. The people came out of their homes one after another, and they were all relieved to find that everything was going on as usual. That is, taking advantage of this effort, Chen Banzhu borrowed a car from Huzi, pretending that the car owner and Huzi sat in front of the car and went out of the city to buy, hid the puppy in an empty basket, and transported it to Sun Mountain.

Presumably, since the Russians have burned the bodies of the forty-five members of the Zhao family, they must not have cared about the escape of the descendants of Zhao Buddha, but everything is careful and must not act rashly, which is why there is such a show.

It's true that people are rescued, but it's really distressing that the dog looks like he's dying - isn't it like saving a dead man?

If this kid can't solve this knot in his happiness, then his life may be wasted. But this kind of thing can't be interfered with by others, so I can only treat him normally every day, talk to him more, and see if he can survive this hurdle!

After a few days, Huzi also has some habits, and when he got up in the morning, he first helped Zhao Xiaogou pack up and wash his face - the dog has been served by others since he was a child, and he can't even wear clothes - and then patted him on the shoulder and said, "I'll go to Shangxiang to practice first, and I'll call you when I eat later." ”

There is no need to tell "don't run around", this dog has no eyes and no idea where he can run.

Originally, after Huzi's kung fu was changed to Li Lintang's guidance, it could be regarded as improving by leaps and bounds, but Li Lintang was still not satisfied, so he changed to get up every morning to practice with Huzi.

This is not easy for Huzi! Li Lintang looks like a monk, but he is not a vegetarian! Huzi used a wooden stick as a knife, Li Lintang fought with his bare hands, but Huzi couldn't even touch the corners of Li Lintang's clothes.

But both sides are holding their strength. Li Lintang was afraid of hurting Huzi, and Huzi was afraid of hurting himself. If it was true that he used the means of fighting for his life, Huzi believed that he had a chance to hurt Li Lintang. But the martial arts practitioners who roll from the edge of the knife often rely on the things that turn in their heads, but the consciousness and feeling brought about by the training of life and death. Huzi really made a killer, and it is likely that Li Lintang will not be able to hold back the move, and subconsciously beat his nephew to death.

When the time came, the two of them accepted the trick. By the way, the etiquette is considered to be the completion of Huzi's homework in the morning. Huzi wiped the sweat from his head, and when he turned his head, he saw that the dog was staring at him.

In the past few days, the dog has always looked at Huzi like this, and Huzi didn't think so, walked over and patted him on the shoulder, just to take his hand back to the house.

In the past, the dog would turn around and follow the tiger's hand back to the house, but this time he broke away from the tiger's hand and ran to the front yard!

Huzi was stunned at first, and then panicked, thinking: Dog Zi is not going to find a short meeting, right? didn't dare to delay, dropped the wooden stick in his hand, and chased towards the front yard.

In the past few days, Mr. Peng has warmed up porridge in the pot, and he will go to the front hall to draw talismans and copy scriptures. Fourteen or fifteen pages were generally copied, and the porridge on the stove was almost cooked.

On this day, Mr. Peng, as usual, drew three paper symbols, put them on the bookcase and offered three incense sticks, and then went to copy the scriptures.

But it was only halfway through, and a small figure hurriedly ran into the hall and knelt down in front of Mr. Peng with a "plop"!

It's not enough for this Zhao puppy to kneel, boom! Boom! Boom! It was three rings, the sound could be heard clearly, and when I raised my head again, blood flowed down my head.

Huzi chased him to the door of the main hall, but he heard Zhao Xiaogou say the first sentence in these days: "Mr. Peng, please accept me as an apprentice!" ”

Mr. Peng spilled a drop of ink on the paper, looked at it, grabbed the ink-drenched paper ball and threw it aside, and then pulled another one and continued to copy the scriptures. He copied and asked, "I'll ask you." Why do you want to worship me as a teacher? ”

"I want to learn the skill!" Zhao Xiaogou replied very happily, "I want to learn my skills well, avenge my parents and relatives, and my family of forty-five people!" ”

"Good! Very good! Very good! Mr. Peng put down his pen and looked directly into Zhao Xiaogou's eyes, "Then I'll ask you again." What do you want to do after you get your revenge? ”

This question caught Zhao Xiaogou by surprise, but he couldn't speak for a while, and thought for a while: "I don't want to be so much, I just want to avenge my family!" I beg Mr. Peng to take me as an apprentice! ”

Mr. Peng waved his hand, folded the few sheets he had copied down today, pressed them with a paperweight, and said, "I will not accept you under my door." ”

Zhao Xiaogou was anxious: "Mr. Peng, as long as you are willing to accept me as an apprentice, the life of the dog is yours, and you will be a cow and a horse, and there will be no complaints!" You...... If you don't promise me, I won't be able to kneel long. ”

Mr. Peng crossed the dog and walked to the door before replying, "If you want to kneel, just kneel." It's just that the food is in the back hall, and if you are hungry, you can go and get your own food. ”

When he walked to Huzi's side, Mr. Peng dragged Huzi: "Let's go, let's eat." After eating you swept the yard, autumn arrived. ”

Huzi noticed that he didn't know when the cold wind rose, and the courtyard was already full of yellow leaves.
