3 Woe to Yanzhuo City (3)

"Did you say the man was dead or alive?" Before parting ways, Hua'er pulled the sleeves of the flying slave to prevent him from leaving, her eyelids jumped a little, and she always felt that a catastrophe was coming.

Ah Yu stopped when he heard this, and smiled innocently: "Don't worry, there will be no one around when we save him." Whether it's dead or alive, it has nothing to do with us. ”

"But the man on the horse is really scary." Hua'er frowned, puzzled: "His face was cut like that, I don't know who he has a deep hatred with." ”

"This world is so chaotic, others are desperate for money, and we are working hard to survive, and it is not uncommon for us to be injured like that. If you turn around and make a fuss about Huo Lingshan fighting for a tael of silver, I'm afraid it's not unusual. Fei Nu's eyes hung up: "If it really comes to that time, how should you deal with it?" ”

"Is it a man's work to kill for a penny?" Flowers retorted.

"What if grandma waits for this money to buy medicine, or she will die?" The Flying Slave asked again.

Hua'er was annoyed by the question: "What's the matter with you today!" Why do you say all these strange things? If Grandma Sun knew that I had killed innocent people for the money of her medicine, would she have survived herself! No matter how chaotic the world is, people are human beings, not beasts, not ghosts, and it really comes to that point, this world is probably like purgatory! Is it so important whether it is dead or alive? ”

"I'm in a hurry." Feinu smiled and begged for mercy: "Why are you in a hurry?" Is it feasible for my brother to say goodbye? He pulled out a few fish from his waist and threw them into Hua'er's hands: "My brother is wrong, make amends with fish." ”

Hua'er snorted angrily and threw the fish back into the hands of the flying slaves: "Keep it for yourself and eat it!" Eat so many sins all day long, suffer so much tiredness, and if you eat a few bites, you will become a starving ghost! ”

Everyone was amused by her hard mouth and soft heart, and then frolicked a few more words and went home to settle down for a while. When I was on a business trip at night, the flowers secretly asked Zhao Ye, did you have an eyebrow about what happened last night? Zhaoye whispered to her: "There are many theories, but I only know that the magistrate removed the investigating officials today under the pretext of other reasons." We'll know it's untouchable. ”

"Oh. That..."

"Shhh

Zhaoye is two years older than Feinu and Ah Yu, and when life was not too hard a few years ago, his parents bought him an errand for a servant. At first, it was indeed a good mistake, but within half a year, the incumbent county magistrate was strangled to death at home, and the new ones replaced all the people around them, and waited for the old people to be sent to guard the city gate or patrol at night. Xinzhi County is also a short-lived one, and he was taken captive to Huoling Mountain within half a year, and his family and the court did not exchange silver for people, and his head was thrown to the city gate the next day.

This magistrate is already the fourth magistrate of the night scripture, and it is said that he was offended in the capital and was sent to the deserted place of Yanzhuo. The people of Wicker Lane always have to discuss with him when they encounter big and small things, and the idea of taking care of the night is usually not flawed.

Even if she was not allowed to ask any more questions at night, Hua'er stopped, followed him with a bangzi, knocked "dong dong" and "dong dong", as if something was stuffed in her throat, and snorted in a sharp voice. Fei Nu couldn't help laughing at her: "Today, this fish is eaten in vain, and the flower girl's voice is not open, and it sounds smaller than the sound of flies!" ”

Hua'er was not convinced, and said a few more times: "Close the doors and windows, prevent theft and theft!" ”

"The thieves who have windows in this Yanzhuo City don't dare to enter, and the thieves dare to enter, the windows are all exposed with big holes!" Fei Nu joked on the side, and the official walking in front couldn't help but respond: "It's a little reasonable." ”

At this moment, they are walking in the front street of Baifu, hanging white lanterns, white cloth strips on the trees, when the wind blows, the cloth strips and lanterns dance ghostly shadows accordingly, and the atmosphere is quite strange and terrifying. Hua'er remembered the story of "little ghosts taking people" told by her grandmother, and her legs were a little weak at the moment. The sound of the beating was worse than the other, as if the throat was strangled by a thin rope. Zhao Ye comforted her a few words, and wanted to say a few words for her, but she refused: "I can do it." ”

Beneath his feet was a newly paved stone road, and the snow was cleaner and brighter than the other streets, and in front of the wild cat lying in the doorway lay a white porcelain bowl, and the flying slave squatted down to take a look, and in that bowl was a dried fish. Thinking of how hard it was to eat fish during the day, but the food was the same as the wild cat in Baifu, the wild slave couldn't help but spit out, and the wild cat "meowed" and suddenly jumped up to the shoulder of the flying slave, and the flying slave quickly grabbed the cat's neck and raised his hand to kill it: "If you fall to death today, you will disembowel your belly and eat your meat!" The wild cat was very powerful, and in the middle of the struggle, he raised his paw and scratched the slave's face, and the slave let go of his hand in pain, and the cat jumped on the officer's shoulder.

The patrol team was in chaos on the street in front of Baifu, and Zhao Ye said "not good", pushed Hua'er aside, and let her continue to shout while he went to help chase the cat. In the past, the master specially told the Bai family to be quiet after the night, and if they quarreled with them, they would be charged with the crime of "misbehaving and not doing anything".

The flowers have never been full of food, lack of energy, and now they are tired again, and the trumpet behind the bang shouts like a cat's meow.

Because Bai Erye felt shallow, at this time, the Bai Mansion was so clean and tight, and the subordinates walked on tiptoe, and even the birds in the bird courtyard knew how to collect their sounds. The housekeeper's mother-in-law softly threatened the girl: "Be quiet, if you wake up the plague god, I will reward you with a few slaps." "The housekeeper is the person left by Uncle Bai, who is disgusted with this Second Master Bai but is reluctant to do the errand of the White Mansion, and the anger on the Second Master Bai turned around and spread it on the little girl's head.

The two sons of the Bai family, Uncle Bai's name is Bai Qiwu, and the second master is Bai Qiling. The subordinates are all long-eyed, how can they not know the intentions of Master Bai? It's because I can't look at this Bai Erye. If it weren't for Uncle Bai's sudden death, I am afraid that I would not have to serve the unstable and ruthless Second Master Bai.

The terrible sound of beating outside woke up Bai Erye, he got off the bed and asked the eagle: "Go out and see what's going on?" ”

The eagle turned around and walked away, through the quiet mansion, until he walked to the wall of the street in front of the house, and turned over on the wall: the cat was fighting silently outside, and the boy who was holding the boy was standing in the shadows, barely half a man tall, and his body was shrunk in the dress, which was enough to hold two "hims".

"Is this a mad cat?" One of the officials complained, and kept dancing to throw the cat off.

Zhaoye suddenly stood still, and after a while, he said, "No, this cat has been trained." He turned to Fei Nu and said, "Fei Nu, did you spew it?" And said unpleasant things? ”

"It's a brute, what does it know?"

As soon as the flying slave finished speaking, the cat jumped at it again, and clawed to scratch him in the face. Zhaoye persuaded him: "Accompany him, we can't make trouble here." Delay the road behind, today is all here! ”

Fei Nu had fire in his heart, but he didn't dare to joke with the lives of the others, so he had to beg for mercy: "Cat Ancestor, I was wrong. Spare your life! ”

The wild cat actually jumped off him and went back to his hole. Zhaoye breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly waved his hand: "Let's go." ”

The eagle told Bai Er Ye about the right talent 1510: "The slave does have a good brain. ”

Second Master Bai sat there and didn't move, and the shouting of Shicai was really ugly, and it gave him a headache. A good sleep was disturbed, and he sat there with a straight face, looking fiercer than the wild cat outside. The eagle was silent on the side, thinking that the "second general" who had gone out on an errand during the day had not yet returned to make a business, and he was afraid that he had encountered some difficulties.

There are two of these people who he looks familiar with, he should have met them at the city gate during the day, and the stubborn "little man" really can't see clearly. If it is really a group of people in the daytime, then the "open-mouthed" person should have learned a lesson at this moment, but people are standing here at this moment!

"You hurry up and rest, I'm afraid the third watch will also be this team later. The kid shouldn't have been able to shout three watches, and his throat was already broken by now. ”

"Did the man speak?" Bai Qiling asked.

"Haven't spoken yet."

"There's no hurry. If it doesn't work, kill it and catch another one. Bai Qiling sneered coldly, opening and closing his mouth was "killed", the truth and falsehood were all speculated by others, but fortunately, this person was a hedgehog. Seeing that the eagle did not move, he said again: "The old mother and the little maid who chewed the tongue in the yard, and the girl who wanted to go to the cat under my desk today, were all sent to the Zhuangzi under Huoling Mountain, so that they could see the real mountain bandits." ”

"Others should argue that you can't keep anyone."

"Delusion? It's just a true story. The Pixiu in his hand threw it on the table and made a loud noise: "I think they are living a comfortable life, let's suffer a little!" ”

Bai Qiling is not easy to get along with, he doesn't talk much on weekdays, and he talks with guns and sticks, and he is ruthless. If you stop to talk to a girl on the street, most of the girls are so frightened that they can't say anything. Rao is a person like Hedgehog, who was born in the army, was afraid of him in the past.

"You said there was a smart one." Bai Qiling raised his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Slave go and investigate."

"Slaves come and go, bothered!" Bai Qiling was disturbed by Shicai's sleep, his liver qi went up, and he began to find fault with the eagle: "Besides, I will palm my own mouth!" ”

"Yes."

Seeing that he was angry, the eagle looked for a way and left. It was still snowing outside, and he avoided people, and there was no sound when his feet stepped on the snow. The team of officials in front of him had already marched to the south of the city, and the formation was scattered and unruly.

"Brother Zhaoye, in my opinion, we will also go to the fifth watch in the future, and we can get five more texts." Ah Yu discussed with Zhaoye: "My mother has been coughing tightly recently, and Lang Zhong has given an injection, but she said that she needs to drink side medicine." ”

"You're going to the dock every two days to move goods, can you afford it?"

"Naturally, I can do it, I have all my strength."

"I can handle it too." Hua'er replied in a hoarse voice: "One hour of sleep a day is enough." ”

After thinking about it for a while, I finally nodded.

"Did you hear that?" Hua'er asked suddenly.

"What?"

"Footsteps."

Everyone listened with their ears pricked up for a long time, and there was no sound around except for the sound of wind and snow and the crows from time to time.

"Suspicious." Feinu said her.

Zhaoye looked around a few times, he knew that Hua'er had good ears, and with the events of the previous night, he was always worried that she would get into some trouble.

"I misheard!" The flower rubbed her ears that were about to freeze off, and put her hands in her sleeves. When he walked to the street in front of the palace, a fire suddenly broke out in front of him. The fire rose to the sky, and in an instant the night turned red, and the smoke billowed up, choking people coughing in the distance.

The group went to put out the fire, and the flying slave grabbed the running flowers, "What are you going to do?" You're not as tall as a barrel! Don't move! ”

The fire grew bigger, and Hua'er stood there feeling cold, and someone quietly walked behind her, grabbed her neck, and lifted her up. The light of the fire gradually blurred, and she went to her waist to touch the dagger that Grandma gave her for self-defense, but the person was thrown to the ground. Looking back, I saw the severed hand on the snow, and I was stunned for a moment, and then I covered my throat and vomited.

When she raised her head and looked ahead with moist eyes, several people fought and disappeared in a blink of an eye. She didn't know what was going on at all, and she didn't dare to stay here for long, so she staggered and ran towards them.

It was the Fei Nu who saw her first, and quickly walked to meet her panicked, holding her arm and anxiously asking her, "What's wrong!" ”

"Someone is going to kill me." Hua'er pointed into the distance, pulling the flying slave to run there, and Zhaoye followed behind. The hand was gone, and the blood on the snow was gone, as if nothing had happened.
