Chapter 104: To each his own
"Two hundred bandits pretended to be villagers, and the leader, General Lu, hid his sword in the Water Temple."
The handwriting was sloppy, apparently hastily written.
He Lingchuan took the paper and sniffed it, and smelled the smell of rust: "It's blood." ”
A few words are easy to understand, but the content is very terrifying:
The villagers were pretended to be bandits, and the leader was called General Lu, and they hid their blades in the Water Spirit Temple.
Mrs. Ying gasped when she saw it, grabbed He Chunhua and shouted: "Master! ”
Undisguised trepidation.
Are they really so unlucky, once in a while, they spend the night in the wild and go straight into the wolf's den?
The three fathers and sons of the He family all looked very solemn.
This information is very explosive, but the most important thing at the moment is to verify the authenticity.
Fortunately, the woman also pointed out the verification method, which was very intimate, He Chunhua said to Zhao Qinghe, who was in charge of the guard: "Dive to the Water Spirit Temple and find out if there is a weapon hidden there." Be careful, don't get caught. ”
Zhao Qinghe nodded, pushed the door and left.
This man is of medium stature and has a medium face, which is really normal in the crowd. If He Chunhua hadn't selected him into the guards, He Lingchuan would never have seen this person.
Uncle Hao was not there, and He Chunhua handed over such an important matter to him, which shows that he understands and reassures him.
He Lingchuan once again found that he still knew too little about his father.
Mrs. Ying said in a low voice: "I see that surnamed Lu's eyes are fierce, he really doesn't look like a good person!" ”
He Lingchuan said in his heart, you still want to play Shuangyuetan with someone.
But he didn't have the courage to say it.
After only a quarter of an hour or so, Zhao Qinghe came back, his face was ugly: "There is a box hidden under the offering table, blocked with a cloth curtain, and it is full of knives and axes, which have opened blades and killed people, and the blood is very heavy!" ”
This can corroborate the Zhu blood book. After all, how could there be so many murder weapons in a farming and fishing village?
Zhao Qinghe said again: "By the way, the water spirit tablet has really been broken in half. ”
Mrs. Ying's face turned pale: "Since they are bandits, why do they not flee when they see the officers and soldiers, but pretend to be villagers to stay?" ”
This is also a question for everyone present.
There are a lot of mysteries in Faerie Village.
"It's not good." He Yue looked at his father and brother, "The Zhu family said that there are 200 bandits, no wonder there are surprisingly many middle-aged men in this village. ”
"They won't say anything, and they're obviously waiting for an opportunity to do it." He Lingchuan's face changed slightly, and he asked his parents, "Have you ever drunk water in this house?" ”
"As soon as I entered the door, the master handed water to the adults. I threw him into a deep fever and monitored the whole time. The housekeeper Lao Mo said, "The maid in the back cooks, and I am also staring at the back kitchen, there should be no problem." ”
He Chunhua pointed to the blood book and said: "What I care about is this, is 'General Lu' a personal name, or does it specifically refer to a general surnamed Lu?" ”
The meanings of these two are very different.
There are hundreds of people, all kinds of people, and the bandit leaders are addicted to officials, and they like others to call themselves generals, which is not too ......
Phew, it's just not right.
"There's only one way to know." He Lingchuan stood up, "I'll go find the Zhu family." ”
"She must also be monitored." Mrs. Ying said curiously, "How do you want to find her?" ”
"Just take a walk and find it, the village is so big, how much time can it take to get from east to west?" He Lingchuan said with a smile, "Besides, I remembered which house she entered before, not too far from us, just a dozen grass houses across the way. ”
This kid, let's say he's meticulous, usually careless; Call him careless, he can even remember where the little woman lives. Mrs. Ying could only sigh: "Be careful!" ”
She rarely expressed concern about He Lingchuan, and the latter nodded with a warm heart for no reason.
He Yue said: "These people are not moving, either they want to poison us, or they want to sneak attack while everyone is asleep in the second half of the night!" It's getting dark at night, so we might as well strike first and take down Lu Han. ”
He Lingchuan waved his hand: "Don't be impatient, wait for me to come back." ”
Now no one is in the mood to eat, only He Lingchuan is flying, chopping rice and vegetables, and eating happily. After the brutal bloody battle in the dream, he consciously calmed down his mentality to deal with the crisis.
Mrs. Ying sighed: "You can still eat." "This kid has a big heart.
"Maybe it's a big job later, how can you have the strength if you don't eat enough?" He Lingchuan finished eating, less than half a cup of tea before and after, and then wiped his mouth and stood up: "I'll go, and it will change later." ”
He Chunhua looked at his back and nodded, sighed again, and was about to beckon his wife and children to continue eating, when the outside world reported that Zeng Feixiong was here.
As the leader of the pro-guard group, Zeng Feixiong has to come over regularly to report to work.
Tonight's incident was indispensable to him, and He Chunhua immediately called Zeng Feixiong in.
¥¥¥¥¥
Zhu's house is in the west corner of the village, but it is not close to the accommodation of He Chunhua and his wife.
The husband died in an unknown way, and the mother-in-law woke up crazy, crying and laughing. Of course, the bandits couldn't leave a crazy woman to attract the attention of the officers and soldiers in the village, so they also killed them with a knife, threw the corpse into the lake, and let her go with her son.
My father-in-law lost his soul and was taken away with his young children.
Therefore, she is the only one left in the Zhu family.
She lowered her head and walked back, and two officers and soldiers came by her and asked her for a glass of water.
These guards live in barns, unlike the officials who live in private houses, and it is not so convenient to drink some hot water. He Chunhua has already told the village chief to arrange for everyone to drink water, but it has not yet been prepared.
Drinking raw water is easy to cause illness, and it is best to boil it. Only in the wild, drink raw water as a last resort.
"Wait, I'll boil water." She brought some clean water to the back kitchen to boil, and the officers and soldiers didn't have to be so troublesome. You have to wait to drink hot water, and most people don't have that leisure.
She would never miss the opportunity: "It's okay, it's going to be used at night." ”
While waiting, the officers and soldiers stood in front of the house, and Xu saw that she was good-looking, so they chatted with her a few more words, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
But Zhu knew that the bandits around her were paying attention to her every move, and it was not a good opportunity to ask for help or hint at this time.
She was secretly anxious, and was thinking about whether there was a way to beat around the bush, when a few urgent whistles came not far away, and the two officers and soldiers went back to do business when they heard the noise, and they didn't have time to drink water.
Zhu was disappointed.
At this moment, a person suddenly appeared in the shadows behind the house!
Zhu was so frightened that he almost screamed, but the man pressed her mouth and nose, with great force, and whispered: "Shut up, or you will break your neck!" Do you understand? ”
As soon as he opened his mouth, bad breath sprayed on Zhu's face. When she looked up, she saw that this man was a fat and strong man, with a face full of meat.
Zhu nodded hurriedly.
The fat man let go of his hand: "What were you going to do just now, you want to warn the dog officer's family, right?" ”
"No, no! Not so! Zhu shrank his head, "The village chief and his minions have been bullying me, and they beat me up three months ago, I, I just wanted to take this opportunity to vent my anger." ”
