Chapter 8: Discourse

Jiangjia Village has many mountains and few rivers, and nine times out of ten the people in the village are landlubbers. Jiang Wu was the same, as soon as he arrived in the river, he panicked, but fortunately, Hao Chuan knew the water nature, and with his consciousness, he dragged Jiang Wu to the river bank.

After a few mouthfuls of river water vomited, Jiang Wu came to his senses, took off his clothes and dusted off the water, and Hao Chuan followed suit.

In the panic, the fishing gear fell into the river, and it was impossible to fish again, unless he went down to the river to catch fish, which was not necessary, so he dribbed in the water and prepared to go home.

At this moment, Jiang Wu found that Hao Chuan had many old injuries on his arms and waist, especially obvious gunshot wounds in his waist and hips. For gunshot wounds, Jiang Wu knows that when he is shot, there will be a trumpet-shaped cavity, and even if he heals, he will leave obvious holes, some people in the village have been shot during the previous war, and after that, it will be like this, plus Hao Chuan's gun that day, it will naturally be associated.

When she got home, Mei'er just cooked a pot of ginger soup, Hao Chuan filled a bowl and went back to the room as usual, while Jiang Wu changed into clean clothes, drank ginger soup, and talked about the strange things he encountered in fishing with Jiang Yin.

Jiang Yin asked curiously, "You said you met a red monster by the river?" ”

"yes, the strength is so great that neither of us can pull it and almost drown." Jiang Wu took a sip of it, and was still a little scared in retrospect.

Mei'er was coaxing the child to sleep, and when she heard the discussion, she also leaned over and asked, "Does it look a little like a turtle?" ”

Jiang Wu nodded and said, "Yes, yes, it's really a bit like what you say, but ...... Is the turtle red, and it's still so big? ”

Mei'er smiled: "Don't say it, I've heard my father talk about this thing before, what is it called, it's the son of the dragon, and it can let you see the fate of several generations of cultivation!" ”

"Fate? I was almost killed by it, and besides, it's a legend, how can there be a real thing, I don't believe it. Jiang Wu shook his head.

Mei'er smiled and said, "I said the same thing, it's almost the New Year, please be lucky!" ”

Jiang Yin also smiled: "Yes, it's good to come back safely, don't go fishing in winter, you can't swim yet, Hao Chuan must have saved you!" ”

"Yes, he's right...... But ......," Jiang Wu replied.

"But what, you always suspect that people are coming from the wrong way, so pay attention in front of him in the future." Jiang Yin instructed.

Jiang Wu remembered Hao Chuan's words when he fell into the river, and asked again: "It's right to save my life, and I am also grateful to him, but what he said at that time seemed a little strange." ”

"You're here again, and you're not done yet." Jiang Yin said angrily.

Maier made a round and said, "What words, maybe in tongues!" ”

"It's unlikely to be a dialect." Next, Jiang Wu roughly learned Hao Chuan's accent.

"What do you say, say it again?" Jiang Yin and Mei'er spoke in unison, and the sound was very loud, which frightened the sleeping child.

Jiang Wu was also shocked by their reaction, and didn't know how to speak for a while.

Jiang Yin hurriedly asked, "Are you sure he said that?" ”

Jiang Wu nodded frequently, as if he had said something wrong.

Jiang Yin's face was obviously darkened, and Mei'er coaxed the child, also with a sad face.

Jiang Wu asked puzzledly: "Big brother and sister-in-law, don't scare me, what do you mean?" ”

"These words shouldn't come out of your mouth," Jiang Yin stroked the child in Mei'er's arms and continued, "Because these are devil's words. ”

Mei'er nodded and said: "Yes, that time the devil entered the village, we heard the devil's words with our own ears is this tone, he must have blurted out in a hurry, and only then did he show his feet." Jiang Wu suddenly realized and said: "I see, if you can say a devil, you are either a devil or a traitor, see if I don't tie him up." After speaking, Jiang Wu took the straw rope by the door and ran out. Jiang Yin was worried that something would happen to him, so he immediately followed. With a "snap", Jiang Wu kicked open the door, only to see Hao Chuan wearing a cotton coat and dragging a piece of paper in his hand, and when he heard someone enter the door, he immediately hid in his arms, but this action had been seen by Jiang Wu. Jiang Wu asked angrily, "What are you hiding, take it out quickly." Hao Chuan was not convinced, and replied: "Why did you come in without knocking on the door, you don't understand any politeness." Jiang Wu snorted coldly and said, "This is my home, I can enter as much as I like." After saying that, he stepped forward to fight. After Jiang Yin entered the door, he found that the two were scuffling together, and immediately stepped forward to separate the two. Hao Chuan fell to the ground, struggling to get up. "It's shameless for your family to bully a blind man." Jiang Wu's angry personality was so angry that he couldn't hear others scolding him like this, so he had to step forward and tie him up. Jiang Yin shouted loudly: "Okay, don't make any noise, Hao Chuan, I ask you, you must tell me the truth." Hao Chuan couldn't get up anyway, so he just sat on the ground, lowered his head and didn't say a word. Let me ask you, did you send the devil to our village to find out the news? Jiang Yin asked. No...... I'm not ......" Hao Chuan hid something in his heart, and his voice became smaller and quieter. "Okay, since you don't admit it, I can only take you to the township office, don't blame us when the time comes." Jiang Yin said word by word, his eyes fixed on Hao Chuan's reaction. Time seemed to stop, the air seemed to freeze, and as soon as Hao Chuan heard the words "Township Office", he knew what place it was. He struggled strongly in his heart, and the matter had come to this point, and if he didn't tell the truth, the consequences could be imagined, and in the end he could only compromise and pour out the reason. It turned out that Hao Chuan's real name was Hao Chuan Muradou, his father was Japanese, his mother was Chinese, and he could speak Chinese since he was a child. In Japan, as long as you reach a certain age, you have to join the army, and under the militaristic thinking, it is an honorable thing to be a soldier. However, Hao Chuan was very repulsive in his bones, he believed that Japan's aggression against China was an unjustified and inhumane act, and he was also very resistant to what the Japanese army did. But a soldier has the duty of a soldier, once he joins the army, as long as it is an order from his superiors, he has to obey it even if he is sent to death, he does not want to stain his hands with the blood of innocent Chinese, he just wants to find an opportunity to return home quickly. Soon after coming to China, he was ordered to carry out a task, that is, to guard the thousand-year-old demon tomb, the map in his hand was originally a tomb robber for the Japanese army's secret message to paint, that is, a landmark, but in the end he encountered a landslide and was rescued by Jiang Yin and Jiang Wu brothers, and that shot was the first shot he stepped into Chinese soil, but he did not expect to save his life. Jiang Yin asked: "I'll just assume that what you said is true, but I can't keep you here in the future." Hao Chuan understood what he meant, and said, "Okay, I'll go, thank you for taking care of me these days." Hao Chuan cleaned up, Jiang Wu couldn't help but say to Jiang Yin: "Brother, let him go like this, he is a devil, it is hard to guarantee that he will not come back to take revenge in the future." Besides, if someone else finds out outside and says that we are harboring devils, it will affect us! When Hao Chuan heard this, he was very helpless and explained: "Don't worry, I am not that kind of person, half of my body is Chinese blood, I will definitely not be sorry for my life-saving benefactor." ”

At this time, Mei'er entered the door to stop Hao Chuan, and said to Jiang Yin and Jiang Wu: "The village chief is here......"
