Chapter 362: Catching Rats
The warm winter sun is extremely rare, and the warm sunshine shines on Inuyama Castle, which is slowly recovering its vitality.
In the western suburbs, the buildings that have been beaten into dilapidated houses are also in full swing to be rebuilt.
The charred walls look particularly ugly against the remaining snow around them.
Under the only dead tree in the courtyard, a girl the size of a palm with a pair of pigtails jumped back and forth in the light and shadow of the broken branches.
"Baby, slow down."
Ma Wang Ye squatted under the tree wrapped in a black robe, holding a pair of fingered tigers with flowers carved on the edges in his outstretched hands.
He knew that it was just a disembodied projection in front of him, but he couldn't help but let out a worried cry.
"Got it."
Li Hua replied vividly, his hands hanging on a branch of a tree swing, and looking at the snow-covered world in front of him with curiosity.
There is no snow in Sichuan and Chongqing all year round, and even if there is an occasional time, it is only a thin layer of hoarfrost at best.
In her short mortal life, she had never seen such a white world.
Li Hua stared at a pair of big eyes and shouted, "Master Ma, this is much more beautiful than the meadows in the Buddha Kingdom." ”
"Yes, yes, when it snows heavily, Ma Ye will take you to see the sea, it will be even more beautiful than now."
"Really?"
"That must be true!"
The red light of the one-eyed in the helmet dimmed, and Ma Wangye turned the helmet inch by inch, and if there was a substantial beam of light, he stabbed Zou Sijiu who was bowing his head in the distance.
"Zou Sijiu, you stinky fortune teller."
The sound full of murderous intent rushed into his ears, like an extremely cold wind, and Zou Sijiu suddenly trembled.
He subconsciously touched the remaining bruises on his face, and said with a sad face: "Master Ma, I really don't blame me for this." ”
"Do you still dare to quibble? What was it like when I handed it to you, and what is it now? A good girl, now she has become such an ugly pair of fingered tigers, now she is still young, she doesn't know how beautiful and ugly, when she grows up in the future, how can you let her look up in the ink armor and be a person? She's not sensible, and you're not sensible? ”
There was an angry questioning voice from Lord Ma in the red eyes, and the faces of everyone present became a little strange.
Only Li Hua, who was shielded alone, was still swaying her small body between the branches, laughing heartlessly.
"How do I know you still have aesthetics in your ink armor?" Zou Sijiu muttered quietly.
"What did you say?"
Ma Wangye's squatting body suddenly stood up, and there was a clicking sound from under his robe.
"I didn't say anything."
Zou Sijiu, who had been beaten up for I don't know how many times in the past few days, subconsciously squatted down, crossed his hands on his shiny back, and said in a sad tone: "I have prepared a humanoid body for Xiaohua, but after her consciousness is fished out, she only accepts it as a pure offensive ink armor weapon, and the others are not willing at all." ”
"At that time, the girl's state was very unstable, and if she didn't download it as soon as possible, she might be swallowed up by the Huangliang Dream at any time."
Zou Sijiu said with a trill: "I can't help it." ”
Boom.
Ma Wangye's raised left foot fell heavily, stepping on a splash of mud.
In fact, he knew that what Zou Sijiu said was the truth. And also as a ghost of the Mo family, he knew very well how much effort it would take for the other party to be able to fish Li Hua out of the sea of yellow sorghum.
Zou Sijiu can't be blamed for this incident, but there is a grievance that has always been stuck in his heart, unable to spit it out, and unable to swallow.
"Hey."
Ma Wang Ye sighed heavily, and a few thin rays of light suddenly swept in front of him, and a small head poked out of the tiger's head on his shoulder.
"Master Ma, what's wrong with you?"
Ma Wang Ye hurriedly raised his finger tiger to make Li Hua's projected body clearer, "It's nothing, Ma Ye is joking with your Uncle Zou." ”
"Oh"
The immature children's voice dragged a cheerful tail note, and the next moment, the projection appeared again above the head of the painted skin standing aside.
"Sister, you have a lot of hair."
Painted Skin smiled and said, "When you grow up in the future, you can have so much hair." ”
"Can Ming Ghost still grow up?" Li Hua looked innocent.
The corners of the painting skin mouth fell downward, his teeth bit his lower lip tightly, and after taking a deep breath slowly, he said softly: "Of course you can, our little flower will definitely be a beautiful girl when she grows up!" ”
"I don't want to be a pretty girl, I want to be the best girl!"
Li Hua tilted her head and crossed her hands on her waist.
Hearing this, everyone looked away and fell into a wordless silence.
"Brother Jun, the bereavement pensions of the deceased brothers have been distributed, and their bodies will also be transported back to their ancestral homes in the next few days."
Xie Bi'an was the first to break the silence, turning his head to look at the dark corner where the sun could not reach.
Li Jun nodded, "Is the money left in the household office enough?" ”
"That's enough, but after the building is repaired, there won't be much left."
Xie Bi'an looked anxious, the entire western suburbs had not lived a few days of prosperity, and now they had become impoverished again.
"These are the money to be spent, don't save. As for the funding, you don't have to worry, there are no guns, no guns, and naturally someone will send it to our door. ”
Li Jun held a box of white leather special offerings in his hand, shook his wrist, and put a cigarette in the corner of his mouth.
When I put my head down and light a cigarette, my growing hair covers my eyebrows.
"What's going on out there now?"
After the battle with Matsuyama, he consumed a lot of liver and lung essence after maintaining the state of 'dragon and tiger' for a long time, and he fell asleep for two days before recovering.
"After the raids that harassed the cities, the Bird was silent again. With such a large-scale operation, their losses will definitely not be small, and they should honestly hide and lick their wounds for the next period of time. ”
"According to the several issues of bandit reports issued by Qianhu, the most seriously damaged in this attack was our Inuyama City, the five major urban districts were burned to varying degrees, and the death toll in the first battle of Confucius Temple was as high as nearly 500 people, and they were all students of the age of bundled hair."
Speaking of this, Xie Bi'an glanced at Fan Wuyi out of the corner of his eye, who was pulling at Yaksha's clothes as if nothing had happened, and he didn't know what he was looking at.
"But it's not us who have the worst impact, it's Kanazawa Castle. According to Su Qianhu's intentions, if the mastermind of the crime cannot be caught within two months, the position of Qiqi's hundred households may not be saved. ”
"Two months?"
Li Jun said: "The old poor will have a hard time in the future." ”
Xie Bi'an shrugged his shoulders, "This is also something that can't be helped, after all, the yamen of the Xuanwei Division in their city was completely blown up, and the officials responsible for implementing the new policy were also served by Honghu." Now the gate valve that was betting on that official has become angry, and he can't wait to take Qiqi to his fate. If it weren't for Su Qianhu, he would probably have been arrested by Beizhen Fusi by now. ”
"A bunch of gamblers who want to go crazy when they lose their cards."
Li Jun snorted coldly, "What is the attitude of the thousand households?" Do you just get beaten and don't fight back, so that everyone can go home and cry with their children? ”
"Of course not, I have already received news that the Thousand Households Office will organize a purge operation next, and comprehensively eliminate the Honghu personnel hidden in the cities."
Xie Bi'an said in a deep voice: "And this time the target task has been clearly issued, at least two hundred people will be eliminated in each city, including a leader who has reached the level of the five kings of the order. It will also be sorted by the number of people who have been cleared, and a single line of rewards will be made in addition to the review, which is said to be unprecedented in richness. ”
"Kill more, get more. Kill less, roll up the cover and roll out of the Jinyi Guard in the Japanese District. These are the exact words of Senho-sama. ”
Li Jun smiled coldly, "It seems that Lao Su was also anxious this time." ”
"After all, now that the new deal has just been implemented, Honghu has given such a big dismount, if Honghu is not beaten at one time, these people will be endlessly looking for trouble."
"It's long overdue!"
Fan Wuyi's eyes lit up, he rubbed his hands, and smiled fiercely, "Dig out those turtle sons who hide their heads and tails, and bleed one by one!" ”
