Spring and summer are people's favorite seasons, spring is warm, like comfortable green, summer is warm, like passionate red, autumn is second, although autumn makes people feel bleak, but there are also many people who empathize with the parting of autumn, and sing for it, like bleak yellow, and winter is rarely liked, like annoying black, and the winter night without the moon is even more annoying.

There was a moon today, and it wasn't dark at night, but a cloud came and blocked the moon, and the night was completely dark.

The small kitchen of Tianxiang Pavilion was also dark, and a small candle could not provide light to the whole room at all. The kitchen of Tianxiang Pavilion could not be regarded as a small kitchen, and the kitchen with a length of two zhang and a width of one zhang is not common in rich families, but at this time, the kitchen of Tianxiang Pavilion is really a small kitchen, because there are three adults living in it.

Originally, Xu Xiao didn't let the old blind man live with him and Xiao Hei, but the old blind man insisted on eating Xiao Hei's sweet potato. Friends want to eat sweet potatoes, Xiao Hei will definitely bake for him to eat, there are not many people who can make Xu Xiao obedient, Xiao Hei is definitely one, so the old blind man came in, and also ate fragrant sweet potatoes, Xiao Hei looked at the old blind man eating sweet potatoes satisfied, very happy, which made Xu ** crooked his nose, and Xu Xiao was angry, the old blind man didn't know why he felt very happy, and laughed.

Xiao Hei had a good impression of this amazing old man and was very curious, so he asked, "Old man, how old are you?"

The old blind man said, "I can't remember exactly, but I remember that I am a tiger." ”

"No wonder you're so powerful, it turns out that you're a tiger, hehe." Xiao Hei seems to have a little admiration for this magical old man.

Hearing Xiao Hei's words, the old blind man smiled even more proudly.

"Is it powerful if it's a tiger?" Xu Xiao scoffed.

"Of course, the tiger is so powerful, it is the most powerful of the animals. Xiao Hei said.

"I'm a rat, do you mean I'm not good?" Xu Xiao said.

"It's not that you're not powerful, but rats are certainly not as powerful as tigers," Xiao Hei said with a serious face.

"Have you ever seen a mouse and a tiger fighting?" Xu Xiao asked.

"Nope".

"Then how do you know that rats are not as powerful as tigers?"

"Although I have never seen a mouse and a tiger fight, everyone knows that a tiger is more powerful than a mouse, so if you don't believe it, ask the old man. ”

"Of course, the tiger is powerful, and the mouse is so small that it will steal rice and eat it. The old blind man was very happy, and Xu Xiao saw Xiao Hei like a cat seeing a mouse, and he could only eat it.

Xu Xiao didn't know how to refute it, after all, some concepts have been solidified after the deepening of time, and no matter how they refute, it is useless.

"Senior, Wang Fugui came to visit. A voice suddenly rang out outside the door.

"Come in," said the old blind man.

A person pushed the door in, this person looked ordinary, and he could see that he was already a middle-aged man about forty years old, holding a sword in his hand, and wearing a cloth suit, although the cloth was clean, but the material was too bad, and even the clothes of ordinary people were not as good as the material.

This person pushes the door very lightly, closes the door very lightly, and bows to everyone when he comes in, which is very polite. If it weren't for his clothes, anyone would think that such a polite person is a polite scholar.

This is the way it is in this world, some people wear gorgeous clothes and do vulgar things, and some people wear coarse clothes and rotten clothes, but they do the deeds of saints.

People who are polite to others will naturally be polite to him, so Xu Xiao found a small stool and handed it to him.

He was not polite, took the stool and sat down, saying thank you.

"Do you drink?" asked Xu Xiao.

"Drink. Wang Fugui replied.

Xu Xiao found a big bowl from the side and poured a bowl of wine for Wang Fugui from the gourd. Wang Fugui said thank you again and took a sip of the wine in the bowl.

Xu Xiao saw that he drank so happily and asked, "Do you like to drink?"

"Not loved". Wang Fugui said.

"Then why did you dry up a big bowl of wine in one sip?"

"Whoever is dying will drink a bowl of severed head wine." Wang Fugui said.

Xu Xiao poured him another bowl of wine and asked, "What are you among the thirteen killers in the Bloody Cloak Building?"

"Seventh".

"How many people have you killed?"

"More than 200 people".

"Kill so many people and don't you have nightmares at night?"

"No, it won't".

"Why?"

"Because I killed all the people who deserved to die, some of them were landlords who oppressed farmers, and some were corrupt officials who bullied men and women. ”

Xu Xiao was a little surprised, such a chivalrous man should not have joined the Bloody Cloak Building, so he couldn't help but wonder and asked, "Why did you want to join the Bloody Cloak Building." ”

Wang Fugui said: "I am a murderer, wanted by the government, it was the bloody clothes building that saved me and helped me close the case in the government, so that I can continue to live." ”

Xu Xiao asked, "Who did you kill and why did you kill him?"

Wang Fugui took another sip of the wine in the bowl and said: "I am originally a native of Chang'an, Guanzhong, and I live in Linjiatun as a child, my family is the largest landlord in the town, and the tenant farmers of Linfu, and there are some small livelihoods at home. My parents were very good to me, and they wanted me to live a peaceful and prosperous life, so they named me Wang Fugui. ”

He took Xu Xiao's gourd, took a sip of wine, and continued: "Our family sometimes often goes to help the Lin Mansion, when I was twenty years old, I met the young lady of the Lin Mansion, Lin Shiyu, he is very beautiful, more beautiful than the widow of the king in the village, her face is very white, but it turns red when she sees me, her eyes are big, she often blinks when she sees me, her hands are very soft, and she is very comfortable when she holds it. ”

Wang Fugui's face was full of tenderness, as if he had returned to his youthful appearance.

"I knew that I was just a tenant's son and was not worthy of Miss Lin, but I really loved Miss Lin at that time, so I took the hungry twenty catties of pork and the only ten taels of silver in the family to ask for marriage, and the forester did not agree, saying that I could not let Miss Lin live a rich life, and when I had a thousand taels of silver, I would come again.

So I went to dig ginseng and sell ginseng outside the gate, others dig four hours a day, I dig eight hours, others will always rest for a few days every month, I don't rest, I earned enough 1,000 taels of silver in two years, but when I returned to Linjiatun with 1,000 taels of silver, Miss Lin was forced by the forester to marry the county's Xiucai, I asked the forester to ask what did not keep the promise, he said that I am a son who kills pigs, not worthy of his daughter, then the words are casually said.

I hate the forester so much, I want to kill him, the matter has come to this, I have no choice, I still endure it, after all, he is Miss Lin's father. But when I got home, my father's leg was broken, and he was discounted by the housekeeper of the forester's house, because his son insulted her daughter's name, so I rushed into the forest house with a pig-killing knife and killed the forester. The local county lord is a person from the Bloody Cloak Building, and I found a death row prisoner to die for me, so I joined the Bloody Cloak Building. The people of the bloody clothes house taught me martial arts, and I killed people for them, and none of the people I killed were not damned, some oppressed the people, some raped ** women, and some were corrupt and perverted the law, and every time I killed someone, the blood clothes building would also give me money, my father is now the largest landlord in the county, and other people's tenants all receive forty percent of the rent, and my father only receives two percent, and the tenants in the county are willing to plant my family's land. ”

Xu Xiao suddenly felt that what Xiao Hei said seemed to be right, in this era, those in power for thousands of years have carved some concepts deeply into everyone's flesh and blood, just like a tiger must be more powerful than a mouse, how can the son of a tenant marry a young lady outside the staff, but it is these concepts engraved in flesh and blood that sometimes eat a person's flesh and blood, and there will not even be bones left.

"Your dad is a good man. Xu Xiao said.

"There is no one better than him. Wang Fugui said.

"It doesn't seem like the people in the Bloody Mansion are all bad people. ”

"The county lord who saved me is called the Qingtian Lord by the people, he joined the blood clothes building just to be able to climb to a higher position and benefit more people, the place he governs lives and works in peace and contentment, and the girl of Erba will definitely not have any danger when she goes out at night. Wang Fugui said.

Both of them were silent, not knowing how to continue. Xu Xiao knew that although this person was a person from the bloody house, he was not a bad person, but he wanted to die, maybe the rivers and lakes were like this, the damned people could live to be eighty years old, and the people who didn't should die were mostly short-lived.

"Thank you," Wang Fugui said suddenly, "You don't have to listen to me about these words. ”

Xu Xiao took a sip of wine, sighed, and said: "The words of the dying person are always listened to, no matter how annoying this person is, if you are not from the Bloody Cloak Building, we will become friends." ”

After listening to Xu Xiao's words, Wang Fugui said thank you again.

When the old blind man saw Xu Xiao admiring this person, he also felt compassion: "You can go, I won't stop you." ”

"Thank you seniors, the Bloody Cloak House has given me more than ten years of life, and it's time to return it to them. With that, he walked out of the kitchen.

The old blind man also walked out of the kitchen, Xu Xiao didn't, he really didn't want to see this choiceless person forced by secular ideas to bleed, so he stayed in the kitchen to nibble on sweet potatoes, and discussed with Xiao Hei who was more powerful, mouse or tiger, and told him that these concepts were wrong, although he often said that Xiao Hei couldn't.

The clouds cover the moon, covering not only the light, but also the wisdom in the hearts of ordinary people.

The night was very dark, like the life of the poor people, and the night was very calm at this time, without a single wind, like the calm before the wise warrior rebelled against the injustice of the world.

But there was a sword that had light, and it was shining even when there was no moonlight.

"Your sword is a good sword, what is its name?" asked the old blind man.

"A stab in the heart. ”

"Why is a sword called a heart thorn?"

"No matter how you dodge, this sword will pierce the heart of the enemy, making the enemy feel heartache, just like the heartache he once inflicted on others. After saying that, Wang Fugui stretched out his sword, ready to stab the sword into the heart of the old blind man.

The old blind man took a step forward with his right foot, and the iron pestle became a thorn, and the iron pestle was very heavy and fast, and it stabbed the heart of the enemy. Wang Fugui's sword turned from a thorn to a split, and it missed the old blind man's iron pestle.

The old blind man's iron pestle was very heavy, and although the iron pestle was deflected, it still hit Wang Fugui's left arm, and Wang Fugui's left arm was separated from his body.

Wang Fugui knew that he couldn't avoid this pestle, and he also knew that when his pestle hit his left arm, there would be a pause, and at this time he felt that he seemed to be able to continue to live and continue to resist the injustice of this world, which was already a desperate way to play.

Wang Fugui's sword is not only fast, but also accurate, just like he said, no matter how to dodge, this sword will pierce the enemy's heart, not to mention that the enemy has a pause at this time, then his sword will inevitably make the enemy feel "heartache", he seems to see the old blind man when he falls, just like those people he killed before.

The old blind man did not fall down as Wang Fugui thought, his body seemed to have grown taller, two inches higher than the original position of the heart, Wang Fugui's "heart thorn" did not pierce the old blind man's heart, but pierced into the heart two inches below, the old blind man's arm also stretched out, and clamped the "heart thorn" with two fingers.

Just as Wang Fugui knew that there would be a pause when the iron pestle hit his shoulder, there would also be a pause when his sword pierced the old blind man's body, not to mention that it was caught, he knew that he was dead. In a trance, he seemed to see Miss Lin's appearance, her face was red, her eyes were blinking shyly, stretching out the white and tender soft wattle to call him, he laughed, laughed very easily, he closed his eyes, glad that he finally didn't have to see this dirty world.

The old blind man's iron pestle pierced Wang Fugui's left ribs, the ribs were broken, and his heart was broken, and the old blind man knew that Wang Fugui would not feel "heartache", because he had never let others "heartache".

Eight more strong men came to the courtyard, first washed away the blood stains on the ground, put Wang Fugui's body into the coffin, and carried it away, and there were still five coffins left in the courtyard at this time.

The old blind man looked at the sky with his cloudy eyes, and by this time the clouds had drifted away, and the moon was once again providing light to the world, although it was only half a moon, and the old blind man knew that one day the half moon would become a full moon, illuminating the whole earth, and at the same time illuminating the darkness in the hearts of some people, so that the night without the moon would no longer be so dark.
