When Zheng Zhicheng was twenty years old, Mr. Zheng suddenly fell ill and was bedridden for a while, and he always protected his son under his wings, so he realized that it was time for Zheng Zhicheng to take over, so he called him to the bed, and asked him to transport salt to Guizhou with the horse gang three days later, and take the opportunity to familiarize himself with the business.

Master Zheng knew in his heart that Zheng Zhicheng had no interest in the family business, since he was fourteen or fifteen years old, he locked himself in the study every day, buried himself in the stacks of books, opened his mouth and closed his mouth is what kind of mandarin duck butterfly, listening to the third aunt, he even gave himself a pen name, saying that it was a certain writer he admired, what was Zheng Changdong.

At first, Mr. Zheng was afraid that he would die studying and become a nerd, but the third aunt said that he was just reading books, much better than those who were fireworks in Willow Lane every day, wine shops and gambling houses, and Mr. Zheng thought about it, so he didn't say anything anymore, and when he was eighteen years old, the matchmaker stepped through the door of the Zheng family, but Zheng Zhicheng didn't agree, he had to fall in love freely, and he said nonsense such as love and affection, and the angry Mr. Zheng didn't beat or scold, and he didn't want to look at him for several days, and the third aunt had to excuse that the child was still young, forcibly blocked all the people who raised the matchmaker.

Mr. Zheng was lying on the bed, thinking about it, and he couldn't let go of his heart, so he called Dai Debiao, the head of the cauldron of the horse gang, and told him a thousand times, Dai Debiao heard that Zheng Zhicheng was going to go, and his heart was 10,000 unwilling.

Master Zheng saw that he was embarrassed, nodded understandingly, and ordered someone to draft a letter, stamped his name, and sent it out quickly.

Three days later, the caravan set off with the goods, because of Zheng Zhicheng, the caravan added four or five more people, all of them were diagonally hung box cannons, two eyes were open, and strong bodyguards, despite this, Master Zheng still replaced all the seven or eight earthen guns in the caravan with Hanyang, and Dai Debiao ordered everyone to sharpen their waist knives and bring enough ammunition the day before, just like that, the ordinary caravan turned into an armed escort army.

The horse gang changed the sound of the mountain songs in the past, and they were all engrossed in and on guard, for fear that a rabbit would come out of the grass and take Zheng Zhicheng away.

After walking cautiously for a day, I came to the foot of Weishan Mountain in the evening, and saw one or twenty people standing on the mountain road from a distance, all carrying earthen guns and steel knives, and the leader was a black man with a horizontal face.

Before Dai Debiao could speak, the bodyguard who was guarding Zheng Zhicheng had already pulled the gun out, and the murderous aura was rising, and the black man shouted from afar: What kind of vine is pressing?

Dai Debiao replied: The single horn is out of the vine, the vein is familiar, and the one who eats the horizontal is the water vine? After speaking, he motioned to the bodyguard to put down the gun, and the big black man shouted again: It turned out to be a person from Lima, and there was a lack of firewood for the neck of the roasted chicken, I don't know if there is one? Dai Debiao replied: Thousands of mountains and rivers send firewood, as well as black and white materials.

When the black man heard this, he hurriedly led someone to greet him with a smile, and the two gestured on their chests to say hello, Dai Debiao brought him to Zheng Zhicheng and introduced: This is Young Master Zheng, this is the head of Weishan, Liu Daliang, his own person.

Liu Daliang took a step forward, hugged his fists and saluted Zheng Zhicheng, who was sitting on a horse trembling, and said in a mouth of half a hundred and half black: I received the sea leaves sent by Master Zheng, I heard that you have passed, we will wait without the red light, hum on the mountain, plug in and climb the mountain, it has been prepared for a long time, I know that you climb the kiln, and you have prepared a new evil fork, hide from the Son of Heaven, let's go to the road?

Zheng Zhicheng was confused when he heard it, and stared at Liu Daliang in a daze, the two stared at each other for a long time, Liu Daliang turned his head blankly and asked Dai Debiao: Can't you open the spring teeth? Dai Debiao couldn't help but smile and nodded, Liu Daliang glanced at Zheng Zhicheng in astonishment, smiled awkwardly, and turned back to shout at his brothers: Press Lianzi, slip away!

On the way, Zheng Zhicheng asked Dai Debiao what Liu Daliang meant, and Dai Debiao told him that this was the bandit's black language, which meant that he knew that we were coming to spend the night, so he took people to wait at the bottom of the mountain early, and the mountain had prepared a banquet, and specially bought new bedding and mosquito nets for you. Zheng Zhicheng asked them again what they meant when they met, and Dai Debiao smiled and avoided talking about it.

Sure enough, the cottage was lit up with lights, killing pigs and sheep, as if it was the New Year, Zheng Zhicheng was invited by everyone to sit on the top spot, which really scared him when he first saw the battle, he clearly remembered that the top spot in the cottage was not just sitting and playing.

After pushing and conceding with Liu Daliang for a long time, in the end, it was really difficult to resist, and he sat up with a restrained face, Dai Debiao and Liu Daliang sat on the left and right, Dai Debiao quietly told him: Liu Daliang and his gang rely on the Zheng family to have today's power, and it is inevitable to be far away from Gao Ying, so there is no need to be too polite.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, before Liu Daliang was courteous, Zheng Zhicheng was already unconscious, sent to the room, and slept until noon the next day before getting up to continue to set off.

Zheng Zhicheng slowly adapted to his new identity - the eldest young master of the Zheng family, and also let go of his previous fear and restraint, and simply turned the goods into a tour of the mountains and rivers, watching the mountains and rivers along the way, stopping and stopping, and it took half a month to reach the destination and get to Longxiang after five or six days.

Delong Township is located at the junction of three provinces, up to Bashu, down to Yunnan and Guizhou, convenient transportation, businessmen gathered.

It takes a day or two for the horse gang to unload, load, reconcile and collect money, Dai Debiao found a familiar inn and settled down, and then went to do his own business, he saw that Zheng Zhicheng's heart had already flown away, so in addition to telling him not to go out of the city, he did not expect him to be as serious as Master Zheng expected to be familiar with the family business.

But before Dai Debiao's goods were unloaded, Zheng Zhicheng's bodyguards hurriedly ran to say: Zheng Zhicheng is gone. When Dai Debiao heard this, he almost fainted, and the goods were not unloaded, so he immediately ordered everyone to hurry up and find them.

Although Delong Township is prosperous, but after all, the place is limited, dozens of people only used half a day, the restaurant, the tea shop, the green building, the bathhouse, all the land that can enter the people, all turned upside down, Dai Debiao looked at the shaking head, slumped on the ground, this disaster is too great, even if he is chopped up, he can't afford to pay, continue to send people out of the city to find, he desperately returned to the inn and other news.

Time is three days, these three days, Dai Debiao tea and dinner, restless, mouth full of bubbles, overnight temples white, a face of vicissitudes, I want people to go back to the Zheng family to report, but I always feel that there is still a glimmer of hope, just when he was about to boil him dry up again and again, Zheng Zhicheng came back.

When he saw Zheng Zhicheng with a spring breeze on his face, he knelt down with a puff, hugged Zheng Zhicheng's legs, and cried loudly.

No one asked Zheng Zhicheng where he went, and he kept silent, the next day Dai Debiao continued to unload and reconcile, while Zheng Zhicheng sat in the restaurant opposite the inn, listening to Guizhou Yangqin's "Second Plum", tasting local food and wine, as if nothing had happened before.

Two days later, the group set off back to Baofu Town, Dai Debiao went all the way non-stop, as long as it was not Zheng Zhicheng to say a rest, never stay, it only took five days to rush back to Zheng's house, when Zheng saw the intact Zheng Zhicheng, the horse gang each got a reward of ten oceans, Dai Debiao took the ten oceans, and invited all the brothers to drink a big wine, he felt that this was the most relaxed and happy time he drank in his life.

A month passed, and suddenly one day, a Miao girl named Ni Xiu Mi came to the door, claiming that she was Zheng Zhicheng's wife, Zheng Lao and the third aunt were too confused to call Zheng Zhicheng to ask the reason, it turned out that Zheng Zhicheng disappeared in Delong Township for three days, he went to the nearby Miao village by mistake, and was catching up with the Miao cherry meeting, this cherry will be a blind date meeting for Miao single men and women, cherry meeting, single men and women dressed in costumes, singing love songs, if one party is interested, go over and gently step on each other's feet, if the other party is interested, will step back, if the other party is not interested, will walk away.

Zheng Zhicheng didn't understand the Miao language, nor did he understand the rules, but he just watched it as a lively look, Ni Xiu Mi saw Zheng Zhi growing up with polite and polite style, and he was angry with a book, so he immediately had a good impression, so he came over and stepped on him gently, Zheng Zhicheng stepped back in confusion, Ni Xiu Mi saw that Zheng Zhicheng was interested, so according to custom, she pulled him to the stream at the foot of the mountain for a tryst.

Zheng Zhicheng looked at Ni Xiu Mi's handsome appearance, but also excited, the two of them were affectionate, privately agreed for life, Zheng Zhicheng lived in Miao Village for three days, and finally before parting, Zheng Zhicheng looked at Ni Xiu Mi with tears on her face, and promised her categorically that she would send someone to pick her up after ten days, and asked Ming Media to marry Ni Xiu Mi as the daughter-in-law of the Zheng family.

But after coming back, Zheng Zhicheng wanted to mention this matter every time, and the words came to his mouth and swallowed hard, he knew that Master Zheng and the third aunt would definitely not allow a girl from a background like Ni Xiu Mi to step into the Zheng family half a step, a month passed, when he thought that this relationship had slowly passed, which Cheng thought, Ni Xiu Mi actually came to the door and caught him off guard.

After hearing this, Master Zheng stood up tremblingly, slapped Zheng Zhicheng hard, ordered someone to lock him in the study and not be allowed to come out, and finally thought about it, took out a hundred oceans, and planned to use the money to send Ni Xiuqi away.

Keni Xiu Mi didn't take a penny, she was determined to see Zheng Zhicheng, and then she simply sat at the door of Zheng's house and didn't leave, this sitting was a whole two days, this matter spread in Baofu Town, and she said everything, the third aunt regarded Ni Xiu Mi as a plague god who couldn't leave, crying and crying every day, sighing.

In the end, Master Zheng really had no choice, so he ordered someone to lure Ni Xiuqi into the bamboo forest overnight, intending to kill people.

Several family members immediately ambushed in the bamboo forest, and the leader lied that he was Zheng Zhicheng's personal guard, and deceived Ni Xiu Mi that the eldest young master asked her to meet in the bamboo forest late at night, and wanted to fly away with her.

Several family members drooled, and surrounded Ni Xiu Mi with a lewd smile, and before she could react, they pounced together, ** until the ugly time, and finally Ni Xiu Mi was tortured and died of hatred, before she died, she stared at her blood-red eyes, gritted her teeth and swore a poisonous oath, she would make Zheng Zhicheng's family ruined, and the blood debt would be repaid.

A few family members didn't take it seriously at all, and when they saw that the person was dead, they dug a pit and buried it casually, and turned around and went back to find Master Zheng to receive the reward.

Strange things happened seven days later, Zheng Zhicheng woke up, inexplicably launched a high fever, lying in bed unconscious, water and rice did not enter, Zheng Lao hurriedly invited famous doctors from near and far, decoction and injections were used all over again, but did not see any effect, the third aunt heard that I was afraid that I was in the evil spirit, possessed by ghosts, and hurriedly invited the monk Dao Fanni, the witch Shenhan, for a while, the family was like opening a dojo, chanting and dancing swords every day, asking God to ask for incense, and Zheng Zhicheng did not open his eyes.

Tossed to the seventh day, just when everyone was at a loss, Zheng Zhicheng woke up by himself, and the fever miraculously retreated, except for a few days without eating, his body was relatively weak, there was no major problem, Chinese medicine called the pulse, Western medicine auscultation, checked for a long time, and finally it was a conclusion, very healthy.

Mr. Zheng thought that this matter was over, who knows, a few days later, Zheng Zhicheng locked himself in the study, closed the door, and let out a word, no matter who it was, he didn't see it, Mr. Zheng thought that he was in a temper because of Ni Xiumi's matter, thinking that it was just a child's momentary anger, so he simply ignored him, but he specially ordered the kitchen to cook some soup that calms the heart and cools the blood, soothes the liver and strengthens the spleen every day, and sends it, for fear that he will hurt the liver.

One night, the night patrol suddenly heard giggles in the study, a moment of curiosity, secretly lying under the window lattice, piercing the window paper, peeking through the lights in the house, only to see Zheng Zhicheng sitting next to the bookcase, holding the lamp is pulling things from his hands, giggling while pulling, this laughter in the middle of the night, listening to the goosebumps, the family continues to watch for some reason.

I saw Zheng Zhicheng stretching out his thumb with his left hand, and pinching out his right hand vigorously at the top of his thumb. This rich boy is different from ordinary people.

Zheng Zhicheng pinched for a long time, as if he had finally pinched it, and slowly pulled out, with his step-by-step movements, the family's eyeballs almost fell out, only to see that the thorn was pumping longer and longer, and streams of black blood gushed out, and even the blood and flesh were drawn out more than an inch, and it was actually not finished, at this moment Zheng Zhicheng's hands were already drenched in blood, all the way to the bookcase, and he didn't seem to feel the slightest pain, while pumping, while continuing to giggle, the family was so frightened that he almost peed his pants, and crawled to call Master Zheng.

When Master Zheng heard this, he put on his clothes and led people straight to the study, and when the family opened the door, Zheng Zhicheng was lying in a pool of blood and had fainted, and there was a brown withered grass on the top of the bookcase.

Everyone carried Zheng Zhicheng to the bed, bandaged and put medicine, and cleaned up the inside and outside of the study, Master Zheng sat on the edge of the bed and looked at the unconscious Zheng Zhicheng distressedly, gently took his other hand, put it on his chest in distress, and wept silently.

Just as he was about to put Zheng Zhicheng's hand back in the quilt, he suddenly found that a small black dot faintly appeared in each of Zheng Zhicheng's fingertips, Zheng Zhicheng was shocked, looked back at the dry grass still on the bookcase, a trace of ominous premonition swept through his heart, and hurriedly asked people to find sewing needles and tweezers, picked Zheng Zhicheng's index finger, clamped the black spot with tweezers, and gently pulled it out, Zheng Zhicheng in a coma suddenly closed his eyes and giggled, black blood followed the tweezers little by little to flow out, only pulled out a head, Mr. Zheng squinted, looked carefully, suddenly, as if he was electrocuted, he threw away Zheng Zhicheng's hand and stepped back, but as a result, he sat on the ground, and the family hurriedly helped him up, Master Zheng didn't say a word, turned around and walked out.

Standing in the courtyard, he made up his mind, hurriedly ordered someone to ask for a doctor, and hurriedly went back to the room to tell the third aunt about the matter. If it's just a broken fortune, it's nothing, but now, this is obviously fatal, and the bell must be tied to the bell, and the top priority should be to send someone to find the Taoist priest immediately.

Tell what you think to Master Zheng, Master Zheng sighed heavily, bowed his head and said nothing, the third aunt looked at it, her heart sank, and she hurriedly asked what was going on, Master Zheng was silent for a long time, raised his head and said: It's not difficult to find him, but it's been more than 20 years, I'm afraid it's already become a dry bone.

When the third aunt heard this, she sat down on the bed with a puff, and Master Zheng said dejectedly: He knew too many secrets back then, although he promised never to spread them, but I couldn't take such a senseless risk, so I simply ........

Before he finished speaking, the doctor arrived, and the second elder hurriedly invited him into the study, and the doctor held Zheng Zhicheng's hand and looked at it for a long time, and finally shook his head, got up and hugged his fists to salute, without saying a word, he turned his head and left with the medicine box, leaving the old couple with a blank and disappointed face.

The grass in Zheng Zhicheng's body grew very fast, and after only one night, it had pierced the skin from the fingertips, and the head came out with black blood, and the third aunt took a bold housekeeper, holding small scissors, and while wiping, while cutting carefully, Zheng Zhicheng was always unconscious.

The doctor came again, but not like last time, with a big stroke of the pen, prescribing the medicine indiscriminately, this time they all took a cursory look, stood up, clasped their fists and saluted, turned around and left, and did not say a word from beginning to end, as if they had discussed it together.

The next day, the cut grass grew again, and this time not only the fingertips, but also the top of the head and chest also came out of the bloody black tips, the third aunt did not eat or drink, and stayed by the bedside without sleeping, looking at Zheng Zhicheng in a daze, and couldn't stop shedding tears, in the second half of the night, I saw Zheng Zhicheng suddenly sit up, open his eyes full of black spots, spurt out a mouthful of black blood, and died.

The Zheng family wailed, the third aunt didn't know how many times she fainted, Master Zheng became like a withered overnight, supported by three or four family members, trembling and came to Zheng Zhicheng's coffin, only glanced at it, then fell to the ground and had a stroke.

According to common sense, it is necessary to stop the spirit for three days, but this grass did not stop growing with Zheng Zhicheng's death, it only stopped for one day, and the ears, nose, eyes, and mouth all emerged with half-inch-long yellow-brown grass tips, this grass was extremely hard, piercing the eyelids and lips, and from a distance, it seemed that there was a straw man covered with black blood lying in the coffin.

There was really no way, the third aunt had no choice but to order someone to secretly bury the body in the ancestral grave of the Zheng family overnight, and I didn't know where to find a dead person of similar height and size, put it on the spiritual bed, covered his face with a white cloth, and barely fooled it for three days.

Mr. Zheng lost his son in his later years, excessive grief, plus a stroke, he lay in bed for less than a month, and he died, and the third aunt disappeared on the third day after Mr. Zheng's death, and later I heard that someone had seen her in Zhangmu Town, a hundred miles away, saying that she had lost her heart, her hair was scattered, she was barefoot, she was dancing around, and when she was hungry, she turned over the swill of the restaurant to eat, and then there was no news at all, and I am afraid that she would have died long ago. ”

Xiao Fei sighed, regained his shyness, people are still addicted to the story, sighing, I understand why the horse gang will take him, co-author this kid is a storyteller, but after thinking about it, I found that it was wrong: "Then what does this matter have to do with me?" ”

"You and Zheng Zhicheng are a kind of Gu, Lover Gu, Ni Xiu Qi is buried under the bamboo house, every man who has been to the bamboo house will be bewitched by the Lover Gu, and they only have ten days of life." ”
