VII. The Messenger

Niu Erzhu has been prepared for a long time since he found out that there was something on the beam of the house, and when he saw that the weasel was going to make a mistake again, where could he succeed? At that moment, he pulled out the cloth shoes in his arms, shouted, used his strength to eat, and threw them at the yellow skin with a whoosh. Three watches in the middle of the night, the lights are dim, the weasel is small, it is not easy to hit, but there is a section, since the last time the Shandong gang was broken, Niu Erzhu knew that he had two free strokes, and he had a good relationship with Ma Wu, and he also learned the stunt of using a hidden weapon with both hands, and in a hurry, they all showed it, this time it was fast and ruthless, only to hear a snap, the weasel screamed, and fell from the beam of the house, and fell on the ground with four feet to the sky, and at the same time, two things fell from above, a small and heavy, When it fell to the ground, it sounded, a big and light, fluttering like a piece of paper, Niu Erzhu hit it successfully, but he couldn't care about this, jumped up from the kang and went straight to the yellow skin.

The yellow skin was beaten very lightly, and he fell off the beam of the house, and when he landed, he fell dizzily, his head broke and he was bleeding, and he spun around on the ground without a head or a brain. Erzhu pounced on a hungry tiger, grabbed its neck and picked it up, and sneered in his mouth: "Grandson, you are making a fuss, playing with my grandfather and me is a little tender when I play with this kind of smoke cannon ghost blowing the lamp, this is all left over from my play back then." ”

The weasel was caught by Niu Erzhu, knowing that it was impossible to escape, and he didn't struggle, but just squeaked vigorously in his mouth, and a pair of thief's slippery eyes stared at Da Shao tightly, and the autumn waves in his eyes flowed, and he actually had a pool of tears, which looked pitiful, and made people look at the heart of compassion in vain. Niu Erzhu is free and lonely, and his grandmother depends on each other, although he joined the Green Gang in the future and became a gangster, but the essence is not bad, he cherishes the old and the poor the most, and his heart is soft, seeing his appearance, he is still ruthless, and he can't bear it at that time, and the strength in his hand can't help but loosen a little.

Da Shao's relaxation, the yellow skin can get cheap, I saw this thing suddenly smiled very weirdly, twisted his body, broke free from Da Shao's control, and ran back. Da Shao is so angry in his heart, secretly scolding himself for being confused, can people talk about benevolence and righteousness with this thing? Isn't this the kindness of a woman, waiting for bad luck? The weasel is very vindictive, if you provoke it, it can hate you for a lifetime, this is going to let it run away, do you want to stop living in the future? Thinking of this, Erzhu gritted his teeth secretly, and couldn't care about anything else, squatted down, threw himself forward, and firmly grabbed the tail of this thing, and said in his heart that today you are his mother's will change seventy-two, and Lao Tzu will not let go.

The weasel was originally extremely alert, and he didn't want to be beaten by Niu Erzhuyi's sole, but at this time he was still a little dizzy and ineffective, so he was caught for the second time. This thing is a brute in the end, once the forced dog jumped off the wall in a hurry, the ruthlessness came up, turned back to the back of the second pillar is a mouthful, Da Shao was caught off guard, was bitten by a sharp pain, almost let go, fortunately, Da Shao had early precautions, barely endured the pain, desperately grabbed its tail, let it even kick and bite, dead or alive did not let go.

After two delays, Niu Erzhu freed his hand, and Dashao's heart was bitten by this thing, and he took out his right hand, grabbed the neck of the yellow skin, and used force in his hand, and it was a dead button. also used too much force on the second pillar, the root of the yellow skin was pinched, the neck was crooked, the mouth was foaming blood, and he looked dying at that time, the second pillar was shocked, could it be that he used too much force and killed it? It's dead and clean, but before he can figure it out, Da Shao was puzzled, stretched out his left hand to probe the snort of this thing, and as soon as he separated his hand, he felt that the yellow skin in his hand suddenly weighed many times, as if the force was more than a thousand times, so that the whole arm could not be lifted, and the tiger's mouth was almost stretched open, and he let go of his hand. Erzhu was taken aback, and then he understood that this thing was pretending to be dead, and he wanted to take the opportunity to escape, so he hurriedly looked down and saw that the weasel, which was originally only the size of a domestic cat, had become thick several times at some point, and his whole body was swollen, as if he had enough gas. Da Shao was shocked into a cold sweat, hurriedly withdrew his left hand, and pinched the neck of the yellow skin with both hands, and even used the strength to feed, barely holding it. Da Shao was busy for a while, his face was sweating, he was just about to breathe a sigh of relief, and there was a sudden change in his hand, only to see the weasel open his eyes and exhale a breath in his mouth, with this breath, the body of the yellow skin was like a deflated ball, shrunk sharply, and in a blink of an eye, it was only as thick as a rolling pin. The weasel broke free from the shackles of Niu Erzhu, where did he dare to delay, twisted his head, turned around and ran.

Erzhuxin said that it was bad, it ran away, and he didn't have to do anything else for the rest of his life, just tossing with it could make him tired and vomit blood. Seeing the catastrophe at present, Dashao didn't dare to slack off, stood up and chased, one person and one beast all played with their lives, although the two pillars said that there was a little kung fu under their feet, in the end it was not as dexterous as the yellow skin, just chased out of the door, the thing turned left and right, and jumped into the thick night in a blink of an eye, and there was no trace of it.

Da Shao wondered in his heart, even if Huang Pizi has the ability to chase after him, it stands to reason that even if he can't catch up, he can't chase it away, why did he disappear as soon as he went out, could it be that this thing is still hiding nearby? Niu Erzhu was unwilling, in front of the house and behind the house, inside and outside the house for two hours, and almost turned the ground over, but still did not find it. Seeing that the east is white, the golden rooster will dawn, and it will be dawn in a while, Dashao tossed for half a night, he has long been exhausted, and he has no nature to continue searching, and his heart says that the damn dick is facing up, and the second master has also experienced wind and waves, is he really afraid of this little yellow skin, what is the love, the soldiers will block the water to cover the earth, and pay more attention to it in the future.

Niu Erzhu turned around and went back to the house, and saw two things that fell from the beams of the house, one was a copper coin from the Kangxi period, and the other was an envelope wrapped in kraft paper. The copper coin is deliberately left when they go to the beam, this is also the custom of Tianjin, to talk about building a house, then there are many words, the ancients paid the most attention to this, even when to find someone to strictly pinch the calculation, some places also have to slaughter a white sheep on the foundation of the house, as a worship of the white horse god. A grinding disc (a hand grinder is also acceptable) is placed at the gate of the foundation, which is intended to ward off evil spirits or evil spirits. The choice of homestead is more exquisite, some places are not suitable for building a house at all, some places are chosen right, the direction and time are not good, as for the wood to build a house to pine wood is better, but also to use at least one Tsubaki wood as a town house, so all kinds, variety, countless. Although the ancestors were rich, after all, they were already broken, and there were not so many taboos, but they put such a copper coin on the beam, and they didn't dare to get down from the beam.

Niu Erzhu threw the copper coin aside, the money was stained by the soles of the shoes, and it could not be used in the future, and picked up the letter with his backhand to see, the ordinary kraft paper envelope, the head of the cover had been cut open, and there was a pair of scissors next to it. Erzhu didn't have time to look closely, stretched out his hand and pulled out the letter paper, only read a few words, and suddenly his face was as frightened as earth, and he was miserable!
