Chapter Seventy-One: The Wall Lines

In Kaifeng, Henan during the Republic of China, there was a snitch who specialized in stealing large households, known as Huang Erye. This person has yellow skin and jerky, five short figures, but his limbs are full of tendon meat, and his small body is extremely flexible, and he can play with his head on the spot.

said that this Huang Erye has never had a fixed residence, and he will change places every three or five days, as long as it doesn't take long after he leaves, the original neighbor will have to report to the official, what's going on, the family has lost something. And all that was lost were valuable objects, such as Huanghuali furniture, bottles and jars of porcelain, jade carved utensils, famous calligraphy and paintings, all valuable antiques were stolen.

It was precisely during the Republic of China that antiques had a real definition. If you take porcelain as an example, antiques refer to the special varieties in the official kiln, or called the imperial kiln, since ancient times, ceramics are divided into three categories, official kiln, folk kiln, imperial kiln, in the past the book said that the passenger and goods, refers to the time of the kiln.

In the years of war, people did not recognize money, but only serious about gold, silver and antique jade. In the war, the money depreciates the fastest, and in the end it is a pile of waste paper, which is better than a pair of broken shoes, at least you can exchange a few baked cakes to fill your stomach.

At that time, the price of antiques was high, and many people hid some and waited for money to be exchanged for money in the future. As a result, they all respected Huang Erye, a big thief, and it was useless to report to the official, people said that they had to talk about evidence, but in fact, they couldn't find Huang Erye at all, and there was one thing they didn't dare to care.

At that time, the society was unstable, the common people were living in misery, and there were still local forces rising among the people. "When you hear the name, you think it's written on the wall, but in fact the wall refers to the meaning of the road, the rat has the path of the rat, the thief has the path of the thief, and the wall refers to the path taken by the snitch.

The walls are full of top masters, all of whom can run hundreds of meters without touching the ground by stepping on the eaves. And Huang Erye is a master among the masters, he can run forward with a heel on the palm-wide head wall, hang down with his heels on the eaves at night, and pull out the air window to get in. This person's skills are excellent, he went directly into the air window, and he fell on the kang where there were still people sleeping and rolled on, without making a sound, which was sharper than a cat.

There are very strict rules for the wall letters, and they can only steal from the homes of the rich and noble, because this distinguishes them from ordinary thieves. During the New Year's holidays, they also have to give alms to the poor, taking advantage of the night to put some rice, flour, oil and grain or a string of copper coins in front of the poor people's homes, so they are supported by the poor, as long as the government catches the people who are on the wall, then the next day they have to let the poor slowly take the government office, and there is no way to catch it in the end.

A black night robe is also the most common dress of the snitch, and the wall line is also dressed like this, but their masked black cloth is embroidered with three gold threads, and they are also afraid that they will be injured by mistake when they meet their own people when they step on the roof tiles at night.

It wasn't until later that the wall shop was taken over by Huang Erye, the nature changed, and the snitch gang, which was originally robbing the rich and helping the poor, gradually evolved into a rampant and domineering ruffian gang.

Although the wall writing line has long disappeared after the liberation, it can occasionally be rumored that there are two snitches wearing embroidered three gold thread scarves stealing antiques in the coastal provinces. The two legendary wall snitches are Erwen, Wensheng and father and son.

At noon, the sun was high, and Lao Wu took the brothers of the grave team to the county seat. Hu Da was shirtless, and he was shirtless and ready to let the sun cook, and he followed behind Lao Wu and asked him: "Lao Wu, where are we going?" Won't it be over if you ask the third and fourth brothers to go with you? Why are we so many of us? ”

Lao Wu glanced at him and said, "Go to eat, if you are not hungry and go back quickly, I can save some money." ”

"Eat? Do you still go to the sheep soup restaurant last night? Oops! I didn't eat enough last night, so we've got to have a good meal today. "As soon as I heard that it was eating, Hu Da Arm was energetic, and he couldn't enjoy his teeth.

The fourth child shielded himself from the sun with his hands, squinted his eyes and asked, "No, Lao Wu?" How can we afford to eat? ”

Lao Wu replied: "Let's leave after eating, and let the second child do the work there for a week." ”

"I said, aren't we going to do it? My heart still hurts! You said that you didn't spend so much money at all, just cheap the thief grandson, I, I can't swallow this breath, I found the grandson and designated him to screw off his head! Hu Da patted his arm and said irritably.

The brothers finally managed to get such a vote, and before they could cover the heat, they let the thief steal it in the middle of the night, and they were so depressed that they couldn't vent, and they were listless.

Lao Wu looked at their appearance, smiled strangely and said, "Hey, I said, can you still have some luck?" It's just, just a little money, and it makes you feel sorry for you like this, is it a shame? ”

Xiao Qi kept looking at Lao Wu without speaking, and he found that Lao Wu had changed his whole state since he picked up the black cloth. From the frustration of losing the money, to the appearance of not caring about it now, and saying that the money can be recovered, he feels that Lao Wu may know something.

followed all the way, and finally couldn't hold back and asked, "Big brother?" Where are we going? So I can be prepared. Lao Wu didn't reply, raised his hand and pointed to a small shed in front of him, how many brothers are familiar with that place, where? Liu Hao's noodle soup is really here to eat.
