123. Accompany tigers and wolves

Xiong Yi hurriedly came to report, saying that the two black-clothed men who were captured were dead, the reason was that the two of them fought during the torture, and they were originally just watching the show, but they didn't expect that the two people were really killing the killers, and when they reacted, they both choked their breath. Speaking of the back, Xiong was frightened in his eyes, as if he was frightened by the scene that had just happened, and as if Lu Feng, who was sinking like water, was afraid.

Lu Feng went over to inspect it, I wanted to go with him but was stopped by him, he said it was too bloody for me to be there, and I didn't insist after thinking about that picture.

One thing surprised me, the hole in Lu Feng's house that was dug through by Chen Ergou was not filled. I still take a stove and press it on it, and I don't know how big the psychological shadow area will be when Lu Feng comes back and doesn't see me when I look at this pit again.

Silently pressed the stove back into the pit, I'm afraid I won't be able to go home for a while until things are figured out. However, when Lu Feng comes back, I have to ask him to send someone to find Widow Liu's wife at home, and I don't know if she came back before me or later. She is Ah Ping's nursing mother, and she must be safe.

But after waiting for a while, Lu Feng didn't come back, but Maya appeared outside the door, and she came to tell me that the leader was not here tonight, so let me rest first. I didn't think there was anything at first when I heard this, but when I turned around, I didn't feel like a woman waiting to be called, Maya's words.

After Maya walked out for a while, I called out to her, and stepped forward to ask her to take me to Lu Feng. She looked embarrassed, hesitated but still persuaded: "If the leader makes a decision, it is better not to disobey, that is the best for you." ”

I knew what she meant, but I didn't have the heart to explain it to her, so I said, "I have something to look for him, you can take me there." ”

Maya sighed and stopped persuading her to lead the way. When I came to the big cave, there were a few people gathered around the campfire, but most of them had already fallen to the ground and were sleeping.

We came to get the crowd to look at us, but we only looked at it a few times before turning our heads. Maya raised her hand and pointed, "The leader is in the innermost." "Does that mean you're not going to take me there again? For a moment, doubts crossed his mind, but he was no longer afraid when he vaguely saw Lu Feng's figure walking inside.

When I found a gap and walked into the cave, I heard Lu Feng's deep shout: "Get out!" In the darkness, I saw only a figure being pushed away, staggering and falling to the ground, and when I looked closely, the thin waist and shoulders should be a woman.

Sure enough, I heard the woman's low sob: "Chief, I don't dare anymore." ”

Lu Feng's back was cold and hard, and his tone was angry: "Get out!" The woman got up from the ground in a panic, turned around and met my gaze, and ran out in a daze, bowing her head and crying.

I didn't know the woman, but I could see what was going on, so no wonder Maya didn't want to bring me here.

As soon as his footsteps moved, he heard Lu Feng scolding without looking back: "Go out, don't bother me." I paused, coughed awkwardly, and saw Lu Feng turn around sharply, and his gaze crossed my face as he walked over, "Why are you here?" ”

"I've got something to look for you."

"What's the matter?" He took another step closer, and I felt uncomfortable with the distance.

After I explained my intentions, I pretended not to see the obvious loss on Lu Feng's face, and he was silent for a moment: "Okay, I will arrange for someone to go to your neighborhood to pay attention to the movements." ”

"Thank you." The words of thanks were a little blank, but it didn't seem good to leave after achieving the goal. Finally, he broke the embarrassment and asked, "Is it cold over there in the stone house?" There's a stove in the house, and the fuel is right next to it, have you lit it? ”

"Not yet."

When he heard this, he threw down the phrase "Wait a minute" and strode out, and soon brought back a torch for me to take first, and he took another bundle of wood and set it up, and then lit it with a torch to make a bonfire. Only then did he say, "If you are not sleepy, sit down and roast the fire, and I will roast some meat for you." Seeing that I had no objection, he sat down by the campfire, took an iron fork, and began to fork the meat.

I stood for a while and walked over, and asked without words, "What kind of meat is this?" ”

"Wild boar."

"There are wild boars in the mountains?"

"Of course there is, otherwise what would so many people eat? Do you really think they live by robbing captives? There are a total of 33 people in the mountains, and even if some nearby residents are arrested, how many families can pay a considerable ransom? The main thing is that the men go out to hunt for a living. ”

Listening to his calm tone, it didn't seem to be unreasonable. It's barren here, it's a lot of distance from the town, and there will be no merchants passing through the mountains and wilderness, like last time it happened that Ah Niu and Huzi caught me in the woods and hit the muzzle of the gun, except for some eggs and vegetables in our homes, where can we have the ability to worship?

I blurted out in my mind, "What happened to the few people who were arrested with me last time?" ”

Lu Feng looked at the barbecue in the bonfire without squinting, and said in a light tone: "The rule in the village is that if no one comes to redeem it at home for three days, it will be disposed of. ”

His heart jumped, and his uncontrollable body trembled, "What do you mean to dispose of?" Killed? ”

He raised his eyes and looked at me calmly through the campfire, "That's what the former leader did when I first came. ”

As soon as I heard this, I seemed to have a mystery, and immediately asked, "What about now?" Lu Feng said: "Since I became the leader, I have abolished this rule and replaced it with another one." Although it is a bandit, it does not have to kill all day long, and the captured captives can neither be let go of themselves nor raised in vain, they can only be temporarily incorporated into the cottage to make a living by labor, but if they dare to escape or have different intentions, they will not be merciful if they are caught. So," he paused, turning the roast over the meat, "the two you were worried about are still in the village for the time being. ”

It's a lie to say that I'm not shocked, and I'm not so scheming. In addition to being relieved to learn that Ah Niu and Huzi were not killed, I was even more shocked by Lu Feng's reform measures. In this way, I am afraid that this den of thieves will grow bigger and bigger, and when I first walked in, I noticed that the atmosphere had changed, and the man would throw a glance at me, but that look was no longer as full of lust as it was at the beginning, and in less than a month, these people seemed to have begun to learn restraint under Lu Feng's constraints.

I hesitated and spoke: "Lu Feng, have you thought about it...... You don't belong here? ”

As soon as the words fell, he clearly felt that the gaze on the other side had become very abnormal, the firelight reflected on his face and highlighted his contours, and his eyes seemed soft but sharp, and he asked in turn: "Then where do you think I belong?" ”

I didn't dare to look into those eyes for too long, and awkwardly looked away, "I just don't think you deserve to be buried here, maybe there's a better space for you when you get out of this place." "Although he has not passed, there are some things that will not disappear, such as the blood that exists in his bones. If he didn't have the ability, how could he kill the first person and take his place on the day when he had just entered the mountain? Several incidents can show that he is extremely decisive, and he is not disorganized, and he is advancing step by step.

However, Lu Feng said again in a calm voice: "What is appropriate? What is inappropriate? I forgot the past, and I stayed here to survive, knowing only one thing - the right one you said was not you. ”

His heart skipped a beat, and this was not the first time he had expressed his emotions to me bluntly. And once again, I emphasized: "I already have a husband." Without blinking an eye, he replied, "I know, you've said it many times." It's just that this has nothing to do with my joy for you, Xu Lan, you don't have to feel bothered, it's my unilateral mind, as long as you feel happy, I won't bother. ”

Everyone has said this, and everything I can say is blocked, what else can I do? It's like he's telling me: You can dislike me, but you can't deprive me of my right to like people.

Lu Feng didn't feel any uncomfortable from what he said just now, and handed me the barbecued meat in his hand. I didn't want to look too small, I silently took it and began to eat the meat, the seemingly charred appearance in the mouth but I was pleasantly surprised, the so-called charred outside and tender inside is roughly like this, and it is not bland and tasteless, there is a hint of saltiness in the meat.

As if knowing what I was thinking, I heard him explain: "After the wild boar is brought in and killed, the meat usually goes through two processes, first marinated and then hung up to dry. The piece of meat you eat was only hunted a few days ago, so it doesn't take long to marinate, and it just happens to be a little salty and the most delicious to use for grilling. ”

Chewing the meat in his mouth, he praised from the bottom of his heart: "You are very good at grilled meat and fish." ”

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, revealing a smile. I immediately withdrew my gaze and focused on gnawing on the meat, and when the meat was finished, I wiped my greasy hand on the stone and got up and said, "It's not early, I'll go back to sleep first." ”

He was still roasting meat in his hands, but as soon as he heard me say that he was leaving, he put it down and got up, "I'll send you over." ”

subconsciously refused: "No need, I'll ...... alone" but he cut off the words: "I won't let you go alone at such a late hour, you must know that there are tigers and wolves here after all." ”

I was speechless, thinking that it was really unsafe to walk through a group of bandits alone. When I walked beside him, I couldn't help but think about his sentence "with the tiger wolf", did this count him into the tiger wolf?
