Chapter 74: The Torch
Wang Debao understands the second aunt, and the scar on his forehead that has just scabbed is proof of it.
So Wang Debao didn't dare to open the door immediately, this big night, there was no street lamp, everywhere was dark, if he was beaten, he might not be able to find the culprit, and he didn't know who to find if he wanted to get back to the field in the future.
So Wang Debao had an idea, went to the kitchen and dipped the broom in a little kerosene and lit it......
Ooh! What a big torch.
Xue Mei didn't worry about Wang Debao, so she settled the two small ones in the back room, and sternly asked them not to come out, and then she chased Wang Debao out alone.
As a result, I saw Wang Debao lighting a torch in his hand, opening the courtyard door with his left hand, flashing to the side of the door, holding a torch with his right hand, and stretching it out at the door.
"Eh, be careful......"
Xue Mei screamed anxiously, she was afraid that Wang Debao would burn people.
But immediately, Xue Mei reacted that Wang Debao was standing on the side of the door, and the torch only stretched out to the door, not outward...... Therefore, as long as the people outside do not rush into the yard as soon as the door is opened, it will definitely not burn.
Sure enough, as soon as Wang Debao opened the door here, a figure rushed in with a scream, and a black thing in his hand slashed his head and face towards the place facing the courtyard gate in front.
There was a sound of "dang" on the ground, and the sound of wooden sticks hitting the ground reached everyone's eardrums.
Xue Mei's eyelids jumped, and her heart was about to pop out of her mouth on the spot.
It's too ruthless! This is for the sake of life...... Are you here to collect debts? Or are you here to kill someone?
It instantly occurred to me that Wang Debao had just said that he and his sister had been called on for debts many times...... Xue Mei's heart suddenly hurt like a knife.
For a while, Xue Mei simply hated Hou Guifen's group of people...... What kind of hellish relatives is this, forcing a good child to death, these people are simply unworthy of being human beings!
The stick didn't hit anyone.
Because Wang Debao is standing on the side of the door, not on the front of the door.
So of course, it was impossible for the stick to hit anyone, but the guy who rushed in hit his head on the torch.
"Whew......"
The man's hair was dipped in kerosene, and in an instant it ignited into a humanoid torch, and he immediately spread his stick, let out a terrible scream, and ran wildly.
The incident happened suddenly, and it was extremely rare to have a fire on the top of her head, and for a while, the second aunt and a group of people all looked at the door stupidly, with a stunned face, and they didn't know what they should do at all.
Wang Debao also silently took a step back.
He knew that it was wrong for him to do so, and he should point out the other party in time to avoid people being burned...... That's the top of the head, something big will happen, and even with him will be responsible.
However, Wang Debao just didn't want to do anything, he just looked at the other party so indifferently and let out a miserable howl, and then ran all over the yard.
The courtyard rented by Xue Mei has a stone sink in the corner...... Actually, it's not a trough, it's a trough that used to feed horses.
Now there must be no horses to feed it, and it has become a tank for storing water.
But this area was connected to tap water last year, unlike before, it was necessary to carry and store water, so the sink is actually useless.
Coincidentally, Wang Debao happened to be planning to make some fried peanuts and chestnuts recently, so he piled up some sand in the sink.
This man's hair was on fire, and he subconsciously wanted to find a water tank in the yard, so he smothered it and put out the fire...... In desperation, everyone forgot that to extinguish kerosene fires, you can't use water, preferably damp sand.
But in Wang Debao's sink, there is just a pile of sand......
The result is so crooked.
The man went headlong into the sand, twisting his feet and arching his head vigorously in the sand...... The posture is ugly, but it really extinguishes the fire.
At this time, a group of people finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the second aunt immediately rushed in with people.
I don't know if I saw it wrong in the moonlight, Wang Debao always felt that the second aunt had a regretful look on her face, as if she wanted the other party's head to burn all the time.
Xue Mei also recovered from the shock, walked quickly to Wang Debao's side and stood, hoping to give him some courage, and at the same time glanced at Wang Debao...... The look in his eyes seemed to say, "Are you ready to do this?"
Wang Debao read Xue Mei's eyes and explained with a smile.
Recently, he really planned to get dozens of catties of fried peanuts and fried chestnuts with sugar...... does not sell, but plans to give it to Wang Jianguo, Zhou Hongliu, Qiu Xingzhi, and Zheng Yuanjie.
In these days, people are generally more simple, or rather, noble, if you send a red envelope to express your gratitude, it is easy for people to think that you look down on him and think that you are insulting him.
So send something delicious, cheap and affordable, the most popular.
The cost of tea eggs is too high, and the sweet and sour garlic has to be stuffy for a long time, so Wang Debao wants to make some fried chestnuts and peanuts in sugar.
It turned out to be such a coincidence.
The person was rescued, and the second aunt suddenly howled in her throat: "Wang Debao, you are a murderer, we are just here to collect debts, you actually want to burn Da Liu...... Someone, call the police, and arrest Wang Debao, the murderer! ”
Dozens of families around were lit up and waiting, but there was really no entertainment at night these days, the whole community was very quiet, and the second aunt's sharp voice was very penetrating, so it instantly woke up the neighbors in half of the community.
Wang Debao approached with a torch unhurriedly, and the second aunt and a group of them instantly threw down the human-shaped torch, collectively retreated a few steps, and looked at Wang Debao vigilantly.
Xue Mei was a little flustered, and followed Wang Debao closely, for fear that he would do something out of the ordinary on the spur of the moment - such as nodding someone's head again.
Of course, Wang Debao is not impulsive, he is the body of a young man, but his mind and soul are forty or fifty years old, and he has a lot of anger in his heart, but he is not so easily impulsive.
He approached the buddy of the humanoid torch, just to confirm who this person was.
There is a debtor and a debtor, and you have to find out who wants to kill you.
Under the light of the fire, Wang Debao saw the face clearly, and it was indeed the big Liu of their village.
Da Liu, surnamed Liu, is a well-known second-rate son in the village, who fights and fights on weekdays, steals chickens and dogs, and does all kinds of hanging things, but he has never done anything angry and resentful, so the crackdown has not hit him for the time being.
But it's also fast, after all, the crackdown will be allocated in the later stage...... With KPI tasks, a second-rate person like Da Liu, who stepped on the critical point of crime, encountered a catastrophe.
"It turns out that it's really Da Liu, this guy is a well-known second-rate son in our village, and he has done a lot of bad things, and the whole village dares to be angry and dare not speak," Wang Debao said loudly, while shouting to the onlookers outside: "Neighbors, please call the police, just say that someone wants to rob and kill people in the name of debt collection, and I have already kept the murder weapon, and I will know if I check my fingerprints when the time comes." ”
As he spoke, Wang Debao kicked the wooden stick used by Da Liu to the back.
The second aunt's eyes flickered, and she wanted to grab the wooden stick when she rushed up, but Wang Debao calmly handed the broom stained with kerosene forward.
Yes!
The second aunt immediately screamed and turned around and ran, she didn't want her head to become a torch.
Outside the hospital, the neighbors who had only given the brothers and sisters eggs and candy in the afternoon immediately took spontaneous action, some ran to the police station to report the case, and some people crowded into the courtyard and blocked Wang Debao's front.
Wang Debao's heart suddenly warmed, and he suddenly felt the heat that he had not felt for a long time...... In this world, there are not all strange bad guys, and good guys are still in the majority.
For example, his lovely neighbors.
