Chapter 13: Cut!
"It's the last trip." Chen Zhongyuan said with joy in his voice, looking at her through the faint light in the room and said.
"Can you use me for help?" Hong Lianshuo clenched his hands into fists and crackled.
"No, no, the brothers are almost done." Chen Zhongyuan raised the corners of his lips when he heard this, and said with a smile.
"You didn't get into any trouble on the way, did you?" Hong Lianshuo asked with concern again.
"No, no, this is a well-known poor and miserable place in the city, and there are very few people, and you can't hear it." Hearing this, Chen Zhongyuan pinched his throat and said softly, "By the way, the kitchen found that the white-faced steamed bun and the two cooks were dead. ”
"Dead?" Hong Lianshuo said in surprise.
"I guess I will be killed if I steam the white flour buns." Chen Zhongyuan said angrily, "It's too hateful. ”
Hong Lianshuo's index finger crossed his messy brows and said, "That's not right! Could it be that after this, they stopped eating and actually killed the cook? ”
"Hong Niangzi?" Cui Ming said.
"What does Miss Cui want to say?" Hong Lianshuo looked at Cui Ming softly and said.
"I heard them say that tomorrow will go to the inner city at dawn." Cui Ming looked at them with dark eyes and said.
"So the cook was killed." Hong Lianshuo said resentfully.
"Oh no, no, no." Chen Zhongyuan's face changed greatly, "So many white-flour buns must be steamed for others, let's hurry up, don't be blocked by someone for a while." ”
"It's too late!" The tips of Hong Lianshuo's ears moved slightly, and someone came this way.
"What then? It's over, it's over, we're being blocked. Chen Zhongyuan was so anxious that he rubbed his hands and turned around.
"Just destroy them, what are you panicking about?" Hong Lianshuo looked at him with a puzzled face, like an ant on a hot pot, and said.
"I can't beat it." Chen Zhongyuan said dejectedly.
"Can't beat it?" Hong Lianshuo looked at him in disbelief and said, after thinking about it, he didn't expect it to be such a reason.
"It's not going to be fought yet, so it's going to be retreated." Hong Lianshuo's dark eyes looked directly at him and said, "How do you know that you can't beat him?" ”
"I heard that they are all brave and good at fighting, invincible, and invincible." Chen Zhongyuan's voice trembled, which frightened him.
Hong Lianshuo took a few deep breaths and looked at him and said, "They are not impregnable, invulnerable. Didn't kick him over just now. ”
"That's one, how much is this?" Chen Zhongyuan was nervous and sweaty.
"Listen to the footsteps for a dozen or so." Hong Lianshuo pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
"So much?" Chen Zhongyuan trembled.
"Call our people, lie in ambush behind the door, and cut them when they come in." Hong Lianshuo didn't have time to do ideological work for him, so he urged, "Hurry! Otherwise, you will die. ”
"Die or die!" Chen Zhongyuan hurriedly found his brother to put down the things in his hand, all of them carried knives, and stood behind the courtyard gate.
"What a mess! Whether it's on, or it's off. Chen Zhongyuan lowered his voice and whispered.
"It's wide open!" Hong Lianshuo said without thinking, "If it is closed, if you knock on the door, it is easy to get suspicious if you don't open it for a long time." ”
"Isn't this door open to make people more suspicious, but when we came in, it was closed, and the deadbolt was inserted!" Chen Zhongyuan said nervously.
"By the time they reflect it, we'll already do it." Hong Lianshuo's deep and dark eyes stared at the courtyard door that was close at hand, "Shhh......hh Here it comes. ”
The sound of messy footsteps came from far and near, muttering in a language that Hong Lianshuo did not understand.
Hong Lianshuo shook the handle of the knife in his hand and waited patiently.
Sure enough, they stepped through the courtyard gate with their feet raised, without any suspicion at all.
When everyone came in, Hong Lianshuo shouted, "Cut!" ”
The men on the left and right rushed forward with knives, and the pitch was so dark that they instinctively and frantically slashed.
If there is no order, let alone moves.
Hong Lianshuo stood at the gate of the courtyard with a knife in his hand to prevent any escaping fish.
The screams gradually died down, and Hong Lianshuo only heard Chen Zhongyuan's heavy gasps.
It's tired, wheezing, it's too weak. Hong Lianshuo put a big question mark in his heart about their identity?
"You're all right!" Hong Lianshuo looked at them with his dark eyes and said.
"Have they all been killed? No fish slip through the net! Chen Zhongyuan stood up straight, panting evenly.
"No, I'm blocking the door! None of them ran away. Hong Lianshuo said with sharp eyes.
"Ouch! I'm a mother. Chen Zhongyuan let out a sigh of relief.
"Don't be emotional, hurry up and carry your things. If you come again, you won't be able to leave. Hong Lianshuo's dark eyes looked at them and urged.
"Yes, yes, yes! Hurry up. Chen Zhongyuan called the brothers to carry the food on their backs, "Go!" ”
"Let's go back and discuss what to do next?" Hong Lianshuo looked at him with deep black eyes and said, and followed them out of the house.
After the break, Chen Zhongyuan blew out the oil lamp in the room, closed the door and the courtyard door, and caught up with Hong Lianshuo in the dark.
The arrival of these military supplies made the darkroom seem much smaller all of a sudden.
"What smells so good?" Hong Lianshuo sniffed and said.
"Mrs. Hong ordered her to bring the food, plus the white flour buns I brought from the kitchen, I counted them, and we can share half of the buns." Chen Zhongyuan's eyes were like brass bells, and he smiled into slits.
"What are you doing with so many steamed white flour buns? There's no one in the house? Hong Lianshuo asked with some confusion.
"I guess it's steamed for other Hu soldiers!" Chen Zhongyuan said without thinking.
"It doesn't matter who he steamed it for, eat it first!"
"Captain Chen, hurry up and divide it!"
"I'm starving."
You can imagine their eyes in the dark.
"What's the panic?" Chen Zhongyuan said in a rough voice.
"This good thing has happened to us, and it always feels like a dream."
"Oops! What are you pinching me for? ”
"Knowing that it hurts is not a dream."
"Yi Di is black-hearted, will he be poisoned!"
"What do you think? If you are poisoned, people can just poison it, as for steaming white flour buns for you! ”
"It's just that people have knives in their hands and kill them directly, can they use it so troublesomely?"
This gossip goes from being frightened, confused, to convincing itself.
"What are you afraid of at this time, I'd rather be a full ghost than a starving ghost."
"Captain Chen, you can divide it!"
A posture that is open to the public.
"Lady Hong, what do you mean?" Chen Zhongyuan consulted Hong Lianshuo.
"Divide it! Half of the steamed buns per person. Hong Lianshuo said gently, his voice was clear and powerful, "Only when we have strength can we act." ”
"How can you be so divided, you have to eat first, you are our savior." Chen Zhongyuan said simply and straightforwardly.
"No, no, no! When you divide it evenly and help each other in the same boat, don't worry so much. Hong Lianshuo said softly, his words were like a lake blown by the morning breeze, which was comfortable to listen to.
