115 Away from Hatred (18)
When he was five years old, the scene of two Tartar soldiers killing his parents flashed out in an instant. He was huddled in the corner of the room at that time, witnessing how his father and mother were killed by the Qing soldiers, although he was young at that time, the appearance of the two Qing soldiers and the swearing voice were deeply engraved in his mind. For ten years, he woke up almost every night from a dream about the murder of his parents and the fierce curses and hideous faces of the two Tartar soldiers.
He remembered that one of them had a black mole on his face and a harsh scolding voice. The other is a slender figure, and his face has been blurred. Even so, the soybean-sized mole and the piercing sound penetrated deep into his blood and bone marrow, and never erased.
For so many years, he relied on this remaining memory to search everywhere and search hard, but the result was disappointment again and again.
But now, this face, this mole, and the piercing voice, although it is not very distinct, can still be heard after careful listening, and it is the same as the person ten years ago. All of a sudden, his blood was surging upwards, his face was swollen red, his hands and feet trembled involuntarily, he strongly suppressed the anger in his heart, turned around, stared carefully at the Qing soldier with a scab on his face, and said word by word: "It's you, it's really you, it's you, it's you!"
The Qing soldier saw that this Han boy opened a pair of bloodshot eyes, staring at himself viciously, and couldn't help but snort, and then scolded: "You little dog ......", before he finished scolding, Ah Cheng raised his palm and slapped him twice, these two slaps were so heavy that the corners of his mouth bled and his teeth fell out.
Qing Bing, who had a mole on his face, was beaten to the ground by these two slaps, and although his mouth was bleeding and two teeth were missing, his mouth was still whining and roaring. Ah Cheng couldn't control it anymore, and with a shake of his right hand, he went to draw the long sword on his waist.
As soon as his hand touched the hilt of the sword, a hand held him tightly, that hand was strong and hard, it was Zhang Ziyang who saw that he was out of control and knew that he would definitely kill people desperately, but stopped him from drawing his sword and killing people.
Ah Cheng was just about to speak, Zhang Ziyang said: "Don't be impulsive, leave here temporarily, and act at the right time." With that, he took him and hurried away. Soon after the two left, they heard the sound of horses' hooves, it turned out that there were people at the gate of the city to make trouble, and the Qing soldiers of the city defense battalion learned about it, so they led more than ten horsemen to check the situation.
Zhang Ziyang pulled Ah Cheng along the secluded path in the city for about two miles, slowed down, and asked, "Ah Cheng, what happened to you just now, you completely lost your mind, and it was completely two people on weekdays." Ah Cheng leaned his head on the wall on the side of the road, pressed his hands against the wall, and cried: "Uncle, those two Qing soldiers are the murderers of my father and mother back then!"
Zhang Ziyang was taken aback and said, "Really?" and said: "No wonder you are so emotional, I remember you said that you were only five years old back then, and the memory was already vague, and after so many years, how could you recognize the two of them?" Over the years, his voice has changed a little, but the big mole on his face is turned to ashes and he can't forget it. There's also one person who is tall and thin, isn't that right?"
Zhang Ziyang nodded and said, "Since you have found your enemy, what are you going to do?" Ah Cheng gritted his teeth and said: "I swear to kill these two dog Tartars to avenge the blood of the sea!" Zhang Ziyang said: "With your current martial arts, it is easy to kill two Tartars." But we can't kill people in broad daylight, because if this happens, it will definitely affect our dating with the beggars. ”
Ah Cheng raised his sleeves and wiped his tears, and said, "Uncle said what should I do, don't you take revenge for this deep hatred?" Zhang Ziyang said: "Revenge must be reported." But we can't report it during the day, we report it at night. Ah Cheng said: "Where can I find two dog thieves at night?" Zhang Ziyang looked up at the sun in the sky and said, "There are still two hours before dark, so we will quietly not stare at them around here." When they returned home on their turns, they followed them to a secluded and uninhabited place, seized them, and asked the person who explained them, and then they could cut off their heads, and avenge your father and mother, and sacrifice their spirits in heaven. ”
Ah Cheng said: "Uncle is still thoughtful, so he will arrange according to his uncle, but what about the date with the beggar gang?" Zhang Ziyang said: "The date with the beggar gang is the second watch tonight, and it can't be wrong." Ah Cheng said: "I'll go back and monitor the movements of the two Tartars now." Zhang Ziyang stretched his waist, yawned and said, "You go and watch, and call me when they leave." I spotted a big locust tree not far away, and saw that the locust tree was seven or eight feet high, and the main trunk was as thick as two circumferences, and it grew so long that it covered the sky and the sun, and the shade was thick.
He looked at the people around, and with a little tiptoe, he swished, and then he jumped up the tree, lay down on a large branch, and said, "I will sleep first, and you will watch first, and then come back and call me." Ah Cheng answered, returned the same way, and came to the city gate again.
When I arrived not far from the city gate, I saw that the onlookers at the city gate had dispersed early, and the Qing soldiers with a mole on their faces were no longer there, and they were replaced by another person. Ah Cheng was in a hurry, thinking that he would let this dog thief go. But when he looked at it again, the thin and tall accomplice who was with him was still guarding the door. I thought to myself, "They are the same dog, and I will keep an eye on this, so that I can catch him and ask him about the whereabouts of the mole on his face." ”
He didn't dare to get too close, for fear of being recognized, so he just walked around from a distance. Finally, when the sun went down, I saw the thin and tall Qing soldier and another Qing soldier handing over shifts and walking along the east city.
He was afraid that he would lose it, so he didn't have time to turn around and call Zhang Ziyang. He followed behind the Qing soldier, only to see that the Qing soldier first went to the deli shop to buy a piece of pig's head meat, and then went to the hotel to make a pot of wine, and then walked into an alley humming a song.
The alley was dark and narrow, it was already dark at this time, Ah Cheng followed him seven or eight feet away, and when he was about to reach the end of the alley, suddenly an arrow stepped forward, stretched out his hand and grabbed his "shoulder well point", the Qing soldier was defenseless, and his martial arts were limited, how could he resist Ah Cheng's take, immediately snorted, and fell to the ground like a paralyzed mud.
Ah Cheng lifted him up, turned him to the back of a broken wooden shed, threw it on the ground, stretched out his hand to pat his acupoint, gritted his teeth and asked, "You dog thief, do you remember the master?"
The Qing soldier was ignorant and was caught, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that it was the young man during the day, only trembling with fright, and said tremblingly: "Shaoxia, you and I have no grudges and no hatred, and I haven't offended you in the daytime, why do you want to arrest me?"
Ah Cheng scolded: "You Tartar, you haven't offended me." Do you remember the couple you killed in Jiangjun Village in Hexi County ten years ago?"
