When Ma Chunhua woke up, she found that she was in a carriage, with a quilt under her, and she could hear the squeak of the wheels rolling through the carriage.

Ma Chunhua was shocked, and was about to ask who the other party was and where she was, when she saw the man in front of her turn his head and look at her, it was her senior brother Xu Zheng.

I remembered everything in an instant, thinking of what happened in Shangbao before, Ma Chunhua immediately burst into tears, and hurriedly asked:

"Senior brother, where is my father, how is my father?"

Hua Twelve sighed: "Didn't you also see it at the time, Master and Shangbao were reduced to ashes in the fire, and the iron house burned and completely collapsed, even if you want to find Master's bones for burial, senior sister, mourn!"

Ma Chunhua's heart ached, she felt that the darkness in front of her almost fainted again, and she cried: "Daddy, you died so miserably!"

Hua Twelve turned his head and didn't look at her, only drove with peace of mind, but he still said:

"Mrs. Shang also threw herself into the fire after killing her master, although she couldn't kill him with her own hands, but I also killed Shang Baozhen with my own hands, which can be regarded as avenging the master and his old man!"

"Ah......h

Ma Chunhua thought of the scene where Shang Baozhen flattered himself every day in the past few months, and couldn't help blurting out:

"It's the old lady of the merchant who killed the father, why did you kill the merchant son!"

Hua Twelve slapped his backhand and directly poured Ma Chunhua's fan into the carriage:

"Are you a pig's brain, didn't you hear when I asked the family when I was in Merchantburg? It was Mrs. Shang who took Shang Baozhen to set fire to the hall and killed the master! ”

"What? Could it be that because Shang Baozhen is a little white face, you moved your mind and didn't even care about the revenge of killing your father? ”

Ma Chunhua didn't think so much just now, and blurted out those words, at this time, she was slapped in the face, and she felt aggrieved when she heard Hua Twelve's loss, and thought that she would not have her father's love from now on, and she was even more sad, and she cried loudly again.

Hua Twelve said coldly: "You just cry, it's better to be louder, I shaved my braids, and you killed the governor of Liangguang, now we are running for our lives, you have to attract the attention of others and recruit the officials, we all have to die here!"

Only then did Ma Chunhua know that it turned out that the senior brother was wearing a hat because of the matter of covering up the shaving of her hair, so she suppressed her crying, but she still shrugged her shoulders and sobbed in a low voice.

Hua Twelve didn't care about her, and continued to drive, and when Ma Chunhua had cried enough, the sobbing gradually became quieter, and then he turned over the quilt from the corner of the carriage near the wheel, took out an oiled paper bag, opened it, took out a piece of dough, rolled a goose leg and threw it in front of Ma Chunhua:

"Eat this, and then drive for me, I didn't close my eyes this night, it's time for me to sleep for a while!"

Ma Chunhua was not in the mood to eat, but when she heard her senior brother talking to her in a commanding tone, she didn't dare to object when she thought of her murder just now, so she picked up the dough and took a small bite to eat.

After she ate half of the dough cake and half of the goose legs, she whispered, "Senior brother, I've eaten it!"

Hua Twelve let out a 'hmm', grabbed the reins to stop the carriage, and then squeezed in directly through the door, signaling Ma Chunhua to go out and drive.

Ma Chunhua took the whip of the car, and sat on the wheel of the aggrieved, the whip was gently pumped, and the carriage continued to move forward.

After the carriage walked for a while, Ma Chunhua's sad mood calmed down a little, and when she looked back at her senior brother, she saw Hua Twelve with his eyes closed and his hands pillowed, and he didn't know if he was asleep or not.

She couldn't help but ask, "Senior brother, are we going back to the dart game?"

Hua Twelve didn't open his eyes, and said coldly: "Why do we go back after killing the Governor of Liangguang, let the Tartars catch Ling Chi and execute him, when the time comes, cut me three hundred and sixty-one knives, and cut you three hundred and sixty knives, do you think it's fun?"

Ma Chunhua thought of the legendary scene of Ling Chi's execution, and shuddered in fright, and then asked a little strangely: "Why are they all Ling Chi, senior brother, you have to be stabbed more than me?"

"That's because ......"

Hua Twelve was originally a bad taste brought by the later generations, and when he said it casually, who would have expected that this stupid girl would get to the bottom of it, so he almost casually said the answer, and couldn't help shouting: "Drive your car well, in short, let's not go back to the dart game!"

Ma Chunhua was stunned, and didn't dare to ask again, but after a while, she heard Hua Twelve say leisurely:

"I found a local dart bureau in Wuding County, and paid them to send a letter to the old and young masters of our dart bureau, saying that we had caused a catastrophe in the nine clans, and let them each flee for their lives, and there would be no Pegasus dart bureau in the future."

Ma Chunhua thought of the voices and smiles of the uncles and aunts in the dart game, and when she heard the senior brother say that she had already sent the letter, she couldn't help but feel a little relieved, and nodded: "It's still thoughtful senior brother!"

Hua Twelve ignored her, and instead recalled the previous events in his mind.

He lived in the merchant fort for seven or eight months, and the terrain in the fort was already familiar with his chest, and after killing Shang Baozhen, he went to the room of Mrs. Shang and Shang Baozhen to look for it, and found the secret book of the Bagua Palm and the Bagua Knife handed down by Shang Jianming.

After that, he went to the account office of the merchant fort and found a thousand taels of silver and a few hundred taels of silver.

After getting the money and cheats, the sky was already dark, Hua Twelve was afraid that the fire would attract officials to check, so it was inconvenient to stay for a long time and go directly to the stable to look for horses and cars, and finally took Ma Chunhua and left the merchant fort with the carriage.

In fact, he killed Fukangan, and the most correct choice should be to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots like Wu Song's blood-spattered Mandarin Duck Tower, and kill all the men, women, and children, servants and maids in the merchant fort.

As long as these people are killed, it will undoubtedly be much more difficult for the Qing court to investigate Fukangan's disappearance, so that he and Ma Chunhua will be safer and safer.

But Hua Twelve has not yet reached the level of madness, as a modern person, you let him kill innocents indiscriminately, he really can't do it, he has set a bottom line for himself, only kill those who should be killed.

So what to do now is to hurry up and run as far as possible before the court finds out that Fukangan has been killed.

Ma Chunhua drove for a while, and couldn't help asking, "Senior brother, where are we going?"

"Cangzhou!"

Hua Twelve didn't pay attention to the other party after speaking, and pretended to snore, Ma Chunhua wanted to talk to him, but it was obvious that he was like this, so he didn't dare to call anymore.

Wuding County is the Huimin County of the later generations, to Cangzhou more than 200 miles of road, the distance is not far, but in this Qianlong period the carriage also has to go for two days.

In the blink of an eye, at night, there is an idiom called people sleepy and tired, Hua Twelve and Ma Chunhua are not tired, even if they rush overnight, it is nothing, but the horse can't stand it, and needs to rest for the night, replenish the forage and water.

Hua Twelve estimated that the matter of Shangbao was not so fast, and he was not afraid of his deeds being revealed, so the two of them were commensurate with husband and wife, and found a big family in a small town near the official road to spend money and wanted to spend the night.

At this time, the sky had darkened, Hua Twelve took a hat, and people didn't pay attention to his shaved braids, only to see his sword eyebrows and starry eyes, extraordinary temperament, and the company of beautiful flowers around him, he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, and after receiving the money, he lent them a side room, and the bedding was replaced with a new one, and he also asked his subordinates to prepare dinner.

Speaking of Hua Twelve's appearance at this time, only in the eyes of those who know Xu Zheng, his appearance will slowly change, until he subtly changes his inherent impression of ordinary appearance and honest appearance.

In the eyes of others, what they see is the original appearance of Hua Twelve.

Hua Twelve's appearance is definitely handsome, and modern people are much better than the ancients, regardless of skin temperament, it is not comparable to people in this era, especially in terms of temperament, the Han people of the Qing Dynasty are used to groveling, and modern people are born with a transcendent self-confidence in this feudal era.

Hua 12 asked Ma Chunhua to go to the room first, he parked the carriage, and after feeding the horses, he returned to the wing room to rest.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw that the people of this family had already brought dinner, two meat and two vegetables, Ma Chunhua was sitting at the dining table at a loss, and when she saw him come in, she blushed, lowered her head and didn't dare to look at him.

"Eat!"

Hua Twelve felt that such a stupid white sweet and woman had to be trained slowly, so he was too lazy to take care of the other party, and planned to dry the other party for a while, so he greeted him, sat down at the dinner table and ate it.

"Oh....."

Ma Chunhua bowed her head in response, picked up the rice bowl and took a small bite, not at all like the feeling of eating meat when she was in the dart game before.

After the two finished eating, Hua Twelve directly occupied the only bed in the room, and went up, closing his eyes and not making a sound, wanting to see if Ma Chunhua would beg him if he didn't have a bed to sleep.

Ma Chunhua silently cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, sent them to the descendants of this family, and walked back after a while.

Hua Twelve closed his eyes, and heard Ma Chunhua walk to the bed, and then seemed to put down something, and then lifted his left foot, removed his shoes and socks, and then slowly put it in a basin of hot water.

The left foot is followed by the right foot, and then I use a pair of tender little hands to help him scrub it carefully.
