Chapter 8 The Fog of the Dawn Seeks Lost
"You all go out, what's going on?" Chang Yufu looked annoyed and scolded Hongmei and Lanmei: "I have something to say to Meixue." ”
Hongmei, Lanmei, and Huangmei looked depressed, pouted, and went out extremely reluctantly.
"Close the door on Mei Xue," Chang Yufu looked at Mei Xue with a sad and puzzled face and asked, "How did you get this sword?" Tell Grandpa, where did you find it? ”
"I have a hole in the cliff in the back mountain...... Mei Xue 1510 told what happened.
Sanyu Fu suddenly had mixed feelings.
"Granddaughter——, do you know whose sword it is?" Chang Yufu wiped away a handful of old tears, and then said: "This is the sword left by your grandfather Bian He's ancestor, your grandfather Bian He is your grandfather's brother——, ah——, cough cough cough ......, they are like brothers, closer than brothers, and they can be called irreversible friends." ”
"Grandpa, how do you know?" Mei Xue couldn't help but ask.
"Listen to me, this is fate——, Ang Ang ......, find a way to bury your grandfather Bian He, to bury him," Chang Yufu couldn't help crying and said: "This sword is a royal sword, this sword was given to the Bian family by Emperor Xin, they were not surnamed Bian at that time, but surnamed Xia, and later changed their surname to Bian, this sword is a Shangfang sword that specializes in protecting plum blossom jade mines." It is made of meteorite iron after 9981 days of smelting, calcining, casting into meteoric steel, and then began to beat, file, polish, inlay, and then use fresh tiger blood to take the divinity of the tiger, quenching. ”
Chang Yufu's eyes lit up, excited, his tone was low and serious, and then said: "This is a rare and rare sword, it can't be bloody, it's usually no different from a sword, as long as the heart kills is extremely sharp, homeopathic and free, this handle can be reversed and flexible in the palm of the wrist, jumping, jumping, standing, retreating, and ......, people with profound martial arts can control it, and it saves effort and worry when it is killed, but it is a pity that there are no such profound martial arts people now." Later, it was transferred to Bian Zhuang, and it was passed to your grandfather Bian He, when our family was a family of carving jade, and it was very protected by the imperial court, and after the defeat ......of King Dixin, this plum blossom jade mine has never been peaceful. ”
Chang Meixue looked at this sword, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and her competitive heart couldn't help but rise spontaneously, and she made up her mind to control this sword and strengthen herself to crusade against the Japanese invaders.
"I found ......." Chang Meixue was just about to speak.
A figure under the eaves at the back of the house quietly landed and flashed by.
"Shh——,h ”
Chang Meixue hurriedly jumped up, looked out of the window and a trance figure disappeared in an instant, she came to her grandfather's side and looked at Chang Yufu very solemnly.
"So what do I do next?" Mei Xue looked at her grandfather with questions and asked, "You just have to look for it by feeling, now that you are worried that someone is following you, you have to be careful——, my poor granddaughter." Ah——, ahem...... ahem. ”
"I know grandpa," Mei Xue suddenly remembered, and said in surprise: "I saw my father." ”
"Where is he now?" Chang Yufu said disapprehantly: "I'm sorry for your father, I hurt him, I'm relieved to have him, he will help you, ah——, cough cough ......." ”
Chang Yufu couldn't help but worry, his face was solemn, and he told Chang Meixue to analyze the current situation:
Those gangsters secretly hid their identities, secretly inquired about local capable people, set up schemes, bribed, colluded, and instructed behind their backs.
In the surrounding villages and markets, there are people who have no fear to do things that hurt nature and reason.
Their secret gathering point was in this willow pit.
The most famous swordsman, Xia Og, the thief Niu Jie stab, is even more mischievous in the Shangdian Village Market.
Take Niu Jie's thorn as an example, when his mother was pregnant with him, his father was plotted to cut off his head, his mother gave birth to him and died in childbirth, Niu Jie's thorn was raised by his sister-in-law, when he was eleven years old, his sister-in-law took him to the wheat field to cut wheat, but the naughty calf thorn walked on the ears of wheat, and the wheat did not move in the past, knowing that this calf was an extraordinary person, he was immediately frightened.
At that time, it was in the era of war, turbulence, gunsmoke everywhere, thieves were in charge, swordsmen, horses, and snitches were rampant everywhere. If the sinister and vicious gangsters find out that Niu Jie's thorn will invite death, his sister-in-law repeatedly told him to hide at home and not go out, tears flowed, bitter mouth, intimidation and scare, Niu Jie thorn is naughty by nature, where can I listen to this kind of advice, the monkey who stays at home is anxious, and often sneaks out with the cat waist.
Later, the sister-in-law had no choice but to lock him at home with a thick iron chain, where did the sister-in-law know, how could this kind of captivity be imprisoned to get the cow thorn, and he often came and went freely, as he grew older, he was infected with gambling vices, and he was also hard-hearted.
"I'll go out for a while, and I'll be back in a while." Niu Jie pierced the shabby cotton clothes, tied a waist scarf and stood outside the door, closed the door, and in the blink of an eye, Mrs. Gong jumped up, turned over the house and disappeared, followed by the gambler who came out to pee with a suspicious face, and then looked back, and indeed believed that Niu Jie Thorn had just gone out, so shocked that his forehead was sweating, and he muttered stupidly in his heart: This Niu Jie Thorn will fly off the wall?
He came back with a bag of cigarettes and a money bag, obviously it was a good day, but he was covered in snow, which made everyone present go outside the house in horror to see what the weather was, and sighed. Gradually, the reputation of the Niu Jieting Snitch also spread quietly, and there were many discussions in the crowd, but Niu Jieting did not dare to forget the advice of the sister-in-law, and pretended to be a rustic farmer.
"It's all nonsense, if I were a snitch, I wouldn't pretend to be shabby here, call two beautiful women, one on the left and one on the right, hand me cigarettes, light cigarettes and smoke," Niu Jiezhu tilted his head playfully, chirping and making people feel extremely enjoyable, and then said: "One will take off my socks and the other will wash my feet." ”
"That's right, looking left and right, it doesn't look like the hairy thief?"
"I see that others have nothing to do, foolishly, just like him, and a snitch? A pig can fly, but he can't be a snitch. ”
"That's it, look at his cowardice."
No one thought that Niu Jie's thorn had been bought by the unconscionable would-be robbers, and he was quietly doing shady .......
As for the swordsman Xia Oge, he left a lot of tragic cases about him, raping and killing innocents, killing people for money, and his methods were extremely cruel.
After each murder, he also rampantly left a wolf head on the wall, as for the person's face, no one knows, according to legend, this person is hideous and terrifying, with a green face and fangs, who is it? Even the government officials did not grasp the slightest clue.
makes people grit their teeth when they mention hatred, but they dare not have half a sentence of slander and abuse, which makes people talk about their color change, this person is deeply hidden, and he comes and goes without a trace......
"Grandpa is tired and wants to lie down and rest, you go out, remember what grandpa told you, and keep it in your heart." Chang Yufu looked at Mei Xue worriedly, looking infinitely helpless and tired, and said: "Take this sword, providence——, this already belongs to you, use it for self-defense——, Chang Yufu slowly lay on the bed, closed his eyes but had a lot of thoughts, Xiao Meixue's life has just begun. In Chang Yufu's mind, the weather when Mei Xue was born that day, smiled helplessly.
"Hurry up, hurry up and eat chicken, grandma will give you steamed rice," Zhang Guizhi was full of smiles, and the wrinkles on his face became more and more old when he laughed, and shouted: "Shout that your grandfather will also come over for dinner." ”
Lan Mei hurriedly ran to the house.
"Grandpa is tired and wants to sleep for a while," Mei Xue shouted, "Let Grandpa rest for a while and keep it for him." ”
"Come here, ignore that bad old man first, you eat, and give Mei Xue leftover rice."
The courtyard suddenly became lively, with the sound of chirping and laughing, the chirping of eating, and the footsteps of grandma rushing back and forth to serve food back and forth.
Mei Xue didn't have the heart to eat, she just took two bites of rice, and remembered what her grandfather had just explained, which aroused her curiosity more and more to figure it out.
"Hurry up and eat, what should you do after eating, what should you do," grandma gently tapped Mei Xue with chopsticks, and said in disgust: "Where did the brain run again?" Don't think about eating. ”
Zhang Guizhi looked at this group of slim and delicate-looking big girls, like a rabbit in her arms, happily closing her mouth, busy clenching her fists and stepping on her small feet, don't think how sweet the taste of happiness should be.
"Mei Xue——, my good granddaughter, Mei Xue——, where did Mei Xue go?" Zhang Guizhi couldn't see Mei Xue's shadow in the four corners, pouted, tilted his head inside and outside the house, and asked, "I was still here just now, and my precious granddaughter disappeared in the blink of an eye?" Mei Xue——。 ”
"She was still there, where will she go?" Huang Mei glanced at her grandmother and said disapprenously: "You can't lose it." ”
"You damn girl, your sister just came back, and I haven't had time to talk to her yet."
“……。” Huang Mei had a calm face, and was about to say something, but was interrupted by the grandfather in the house.
"Go to business——, go to the willow pit," Chang Yufu came out of the house on crutches, his face showing a little smugness, "It's not like this group of useless things, who will be chattering all day long." ”
"......," Zhang Guizhi heard this, his face suddenly turned red with anger, and he hurriedly stepped forward, pushed Chang Yufu into the house, stomped his feet viciously, and whispered, "You bewitched her again, right?" Let her be a weak woman to stir up trouble, just stuck to the peaceful days, you dead old man ......, you have to make me angry to death, what is wrong with Mei Xue, I, I, I will hang you. ”
"You ......, you are adding to the chaos," Chang Yufu looked at this fierce expression, stepped back, and said: "That is the will of the ancestors, and it is also the will of heaven, hey, I really shouldn't tell you." ”
"You, you old immortal, you are an old monster, you, you ......." Zhang Guizhi turned his head as he spoke, stepped on his little feet, and hurriedly walked out, shouting, "I want to get her back." ”
"You ......, cough cough ......, cough cough ......." Chang Yufu coughed, slammed the ground with a crutch, sat on the bed helplessly, and said: "Kill you halfway to bite gold, scourge, scourge——, Hongmei ——,...... Ahem...... you come over for me, quickly bring your scourge grandma back to me——, go, ah, ......, ahem......." ”
The willow pit is located at the mouth of the ditch, the front two hills are opposite to each other into a clamp, the back is a mountain pile, a dilapidated watchtower is erected on the top of the mountain, and the two hills gather into a tridental, the center is a raised flat land, there are three families living on the flat land, sitting in the north and facing south, the back of the hill pile, although the house is simple but the surroundings are also clean and exquisite, it looks very different from the farmer's house, there is no chicken coop, there is no vegetable garden, although there are crops in the surrounding fields, but it is also planted by the farmers in Lixia Village and Waigou.
This kind of out-of-place lifestyle, no one cares, maybe they do business in the shop market, maybe they collect leather goods, in short, it seems that these people rarely show signs of being at home.
Chang Meixue was taken aback, cautiously walked through the vegetable patch, and listened carefully to the movements in the house.
