Chapter 6: The Unexpected

The young man did not look back, but listened to the call, and thought in his heart, and knew who it was.

Ordinary people will not call him "Brother Ming", only the group of green skins who are blind with Liang Yu will call the young man so, but everyone who knows Zhong Ming respectfully calls him "Mr. Zhong", if it is not for the group of green skins who want to show their closeness to Zhong Ming, how dare they call the young man "brother".

Sure enough, just as the young man guessed, he was actually one of Liang Yu's fox friends.

This run-out of breath and obese boy is named Fei Dacheng, and others like to call him Fei Dacheng.

It's just that he suffered from a strange illness in his early years and left a sequelae, even in the famine years, he can be as obese as a blowdown, and his wealth is gratifying.

The neighbors all say that Dacheng is rich and noble, has a rich life, and will live a good life in the future.

Whether it is rich and noble is unknown, but this young man is really lazy, lazy to eat, and does not want to work.

It's just lazy, and it's not enough to earn courage and ruthlessness, so they can only follow Liang Yu and their butts, and do some work to carry errands and deliver messages, so as to brag that they are the head snakes of Liang Heige and his gang in the mud village.

The Mai boy saw that the person who came was a big idiot, and he didn't panic, and the old god asked on the ground: "Big idiot, what's wrong, so flustered?"

The obsessive boy who ran to Mai was just gasping, and he raised his hand several times to speak, but the words in his mouth were suppressed by the rough air.

Fei Da Idiot is so obese, to be able to run in front of Zhong Ming, it must be a blow, and now that he is exhausted, he can't slow down without half a ring.

The Mai boy also knew, patted the obese boy on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, slow down, speak slowly." ”

After a while, the fat on Fei's face no longer trembled, and he opened his mouth and shouted eagerly: "Brother Ming, it's not good, Brother Hei was caught by Zhang Lezi's group, saying that he refused to hand over the land payment of the mud village, so he wanted to kill Brother Hei." ”

Hearing this, he was not far from the speculation in the young man's heart, he was just curious, how Liang Yu could be caught by Zhang Lezi's group, it was incredible.

Liang Yu has a ruthlessness, but it is not the ruthlessness of ordinary green skin, it is grinded out in the pile of dead people.

In addition, he has a short knife in his hand, which helps him to play fiercely, and the ordinary four or five green skins are not close to him, and Zhang Lezi's seven or eight people who are greedy for life and afraid of death will never be the opponent of Liang Yu and others.

So the Mai boy frowned slightly and asked, "How could Liang Yu be caught by Zhang Lezi, what happened to him?"

As Fei Dazhi told the reason for the incident, the young man was no longer calm, and the reassurance in his heart disappeared.

There is an unwritten rule for the local pimples, that is, it is easy not to cause death, so even if Liang Heizi is arrested, he will not worry about his life.

Qingpi oppresses ordinary people, and has its own capture and fast servants to govern Qingpi.

If it is usual, a few people are injured in a fight, and they don't care about it, and once they kill someone, they will ask the culprit.

Today's situation is not good, Zhang Lezi's group was able to ask Wu Zhu from the county government to help, which made Liang Yu plant in their hands.

But anyone who can hold the position of catching fast, he must be rough with his fists and feet, and he has some superficial kung fu, and they also wear the standard horizontal knife issued by the government, and Liang Yu is naturally not an opponent.

Wu Zhu is willing to make a move, and this matter is no longer as simple as a pious fight, it has been transformed into a government to suppress bandits, and it is likely to kill Liang Yu.

Zhang Lezi is a splash in the city, often walks around the city, and it is not uncommon for him to have some unsavory compactions with the arrest of Kuai, and collusion between officials and bandits is not uncommon.

I think that at first, there was no oil and water in the mud village, and it was not worth Wu to catch a quick shot, but now the mud village wants to divide the fields, and the future food payment is enough to make the catchers red-eyed, for the sake of money, they don't mind killing a few scoundrels.

Catching and killing quickly is justified, the people clap their hands and praise the pleasure, and if they are killed, they will be killed in vain, and no one will come forward to stop them.

Thinking of Liang Heizi's stubbornness, it is this ruthlessness to gain a firm foothold from the mud village, and today it is very likely that he will lose his life because of this stubborn ruthlessness, and the young man's heart will be greatly lost.

Hey! It's really a success, and a failure!

At this point, the Mai boy could no longer hold his breath, and impatience appeared in his eyes.

It was still the experience of many years that made Zhong Ming grit his teeth and hold back, his consciousness gradually cleared, he knew in his heart that the more he encountered, the more he could not panic, and it was absolutely impossible to make mistakes in his busyness, otherwise Liang Heizi might really lose his life because of this.

His mind was racing, and a few strategies flashed through the young man's mind, and he pushed the lotus leaf bag and roster in his hand into the arms of the obsessed young man, and asked, "Where are they?"

Fei Da Idiot hurriedly responded: "The temple is broken in the west of the city." ”

The young man nodded, stretched out his hand to tie the hem of the robe around his waist, and advised, "You go to my house quickly, find a mahogany locket under my bed, and send it to the broken temple as soon as you find it." ”

With years of experience, young people have a plan in their hearts.

If Zhang Lezi and others just ask for the first payment, persuade Liang Yu to give them it, so that it is best to solve the problem.

If not, then ten ingots of gold will be honored by Wu and buy Liang Heizi's life.

If you can't buy your life......

The young man reached out and took out the mahogany folding knife from his bosom, and secretly said that the worst thing to do was to rely on it to fight with the group of people.

In the era of cannibalism, how can there be so much truth at all, whoever can survive, whoever says it in his mouth is the truth, even if the person says that pigs fly in the sky.

If the king becomes a king or loses, there is no way for the dead to refute it.

Clenching the folding knife in his hand, the Mai boy no longer hesitated, and ran quickly towards the broken temple in the west of the city.

......

Outside the gate of Qinxiangzhai, the obese young man Fei Dacheng was stunned and watched Zhong Ming run away and disappear around the corner of the street, he also suddenly realized, and hurriedly turned around and ran towards the silt village.

"Mahogany box, mahogany box, isn't it that Brother Ming wants to ransom people with treasures?"

Fei Da Idiot has words in his mouth, and he has guessed the intention of the Mai boy to be eight or nine.

The obsessive boy is lazy, but he is not really as stupid as he looks, don't look at him often showing people with a smile, but his mind is very lively.

Brother Ming'er has a treasure at home, which is a secret that everyone in the mud village knows but keeps silent.

At the beginning of the war a year ago, although the New Tang Dynasty had been founded, local control was not yet complete, and the money and food for disaster relief were delayed.

The town here is already desolate, rice and grain are as precious as desert nectar, and the disaster relief food cannot be allocated, and the displaced people still have to go hungry, which is worse than in war.

In times of war, there are always some unlucky dead ghosts who are dug out of the ground by the living, and they cannot be left with their whole corpses when they die.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was not allowed to be as chaotic as before, and corpse eating became a ban, and Emperor Tang Zhen issued an edict to inform the world that the corpse eater was beheaded for public display.

In response to the emperor's edict, the county commander in the city deliberately beheaded ten "corpse-eating refugees", and their heads were hung at the east city gate for more than ten days to deter the border corpse eaters.

The group of people who secretly ate meat to survive also had to dig up grass roots and eat tree bark, and the barren mountains in the south of the city were dug up without grass, and the food rations became more and more insufficient.

There were no grain fields in the mud village, and it was the hardest hit until the heavy snow covered the mountain, and the villagers could no longer dig out the soil to eat, and people began to starve to death one after another.

Seeing that everyone was going to starve to death in the first snow of the New Tang Dynasty, the faces that were still smiling bitterly yesterday might lose their vitality the next day, and Zhong Ming couldn't stand it.

On the seventh day and night of the heavy snowfall, Zhong Ming took Liang Heizi to secretly climb over the broken wall overnight and enter the city to look for food.

Bangzi knocked on the third watch, Zhong Ming walked out of the broken wall gate openly, and the vigil city army opened the city gate for him.

When Zhong Ming returned to the village, he was followed not only by Liang Heizi, but also by the three carriages of the chaff valley.

With those three carts of chaff valley, the people of the silt village can survive.

At first, no one knew what happened that night, until Liang Heizi bragged and said that he had leaked his mouth.

The black-skinned boy trumpeted that Brother Ming was bold and careful, took the hidden treasure at home, and exchanged it for life-saving rice and grain with the big Toda family in the city, which solved the doubts of the villagers.

The Tian family in the city is the largest household, and it is rumored that the Tian family has official relatives in the court, and they are the big people who can reach the heavens, so they can still have surplus food in this famine era.

The power of the Tian family is so great that even the county magistrate has to give three points, and the town here can be described as the existence of calling for wind and rain.

Zhong Ming was able to exchange rice and grain in the hands of these people, which was enough to make everyone in the mud village worship, and after distributing the grain, he was even more grateful to Dade, more than 200 people knelt outside Zhong Ming's small courtyard and kowtowed three times before they were willing to stop, and Zhong Ming couldn't stop him.

In fact, only Zhong Ming himself understood that he did not spend too much money, just took some risks.

More than a dozen strings of jewels and a strange jade flute that can't be blown can be exchanged for more than 200 lives in the mud village, no matter how it is calculated.

It is indeed not a loss, the boy got back not only more than 200 lives, but also the loyalty of more than 200 people.

Just as his cheeks were red at this time, the fat was swaying, and he was already panting like a cow and still running wildly, what he hid most in his heart was this matter, and he would not mention it when he closed his mouth, but he would never forget the life-saving grace of the baby for chaff valley.

When he ran to the head of the village and saw the thatched hut of the village chief, he was relieved and could no longer run, so he could only hold his waist and gasp for breath.

It's just that the mud village at this time is a little different, and out of thin air, there are many tall horses and soldiers and horsemen wearing armor and knives, surrounding the thatched hut of the village chief Sun's family.

Fei Dacheng looked at it in a daze, he was very puzzled in his heart, and then remembered Brother Ming'er's advice, he didn't dare to slack off, suppressed the urge to see the excitement in his heart, and walked quickly towards the small courtyard of Zhong Ming's house.

When he came to Zhong Ming's house, Fei Dazhi didn't take much effort to find the mahogany brocade box.

There are no door locks for such down-and-out houses in Mud Village, and Zhong Ming's small courtyard is only plugged into the railing gate with tree branches.

Holding the mahogany brocade box, Fei Da Idiot made it difficult, the lotus leaf bag and the roster were very obstructive, and Brother Ming didn't say how to deal with it, he didn't dare to make a claim, so he could only walk out slowly.

Because of the brocade box and lotus leaf bag in his arms, the obsessive boy can't run or go fast.

When she passed by the door of Old Man Sun's house again, she was caught by Sun Luolian, she pointed to the sweaty Fei Da Idiot and shouted: "Grandpa, look, it's a big idiot, I just saw him come back from outside, maybe I saw Brother Zhong on the road." ”

The old man Sun, who was frowning, saw Fei Da Idiot, and immediately showed a smiling face, shouting at the top of his voice: "Big idiot, come here, Uncle Sun asks you something!"

Fei Dacheng, who was anxious in his heart, turned a deaf ear, he deliberately turned his face and pretended not to hear, forcibly raised his strength, and ran forward with his legs.

Brother Ming can wait for him to take the baby to save his life, how can he delay time on the road because of some trivial things.

"What hysteria is there today, can't you hear this child?"

Seeing that the obsessive boy did not respond, Old Man Sun looked around with his teeth and flowers, trying to find a wooden stick in the yard so that he could catch up and teach this bastard boy who didn't listen to him a lesson.

When he turned his head, Old Man Sun saw the nobles in the house, and he could only give up for the sake of face, and threw his sleeves to catch up.

Sun Luolian saw what Old Man Sun meant, stopped the old man and said, "Grandpa, I'll chase after you." ”

"You don't have to move, I'll come. ”

But he didn't think that someone was faster than Sun Luolian, but he saw a man in military armor jumping over the railing, the rabbit got up and down, and came to the obsessive boy in a few steps, blocking his way.

Fei Dacheng only felt that there was a flower in front of him, and there was a tall figure.

The fine scale armor flashed in the morning sun, a little dazzling, and the obese boy subconsciously hid the brocade box in his arms in his arms, secretly saying that it was going to be bad!

The obsessive young man thought that this soldier and cavalry master had taken a fancy to the treasure in his arms, and he was immediately frightened of the six gods, but he didn't expect that the words of the person were full of smiles, and said: "Big idiot, look at me, do you still know me?"

The young man who was hiding was stunned again, and he didn't recognize the identity of the person even after looking at it, until the person who came took off his hood and revealed his angular face, and Fei Dacheng exclaimed: "Sun Longhu, you are Brother Longhu!"

......

The obsessive boy met the deceased at the head of the village and delayed the hour, but he didn't know that the Mai boy had run to the broken temple in the west of the city and was about to face a dilemma.
