Chapter 262: It's Too Late to See the Dog (37)
Li Zicheng said to his brother-in-law with a happy smile: "Yigong, these wounds should be hidden, and our color numbers are not old and young." ”
They said that less than five miles away from here there was a very large cave in the inaccessible mountains, and that the entrance of the cave was on a cliff, more than three feet high from the bottom of the valley, and that it was completely obscured by vegetation and trees, and that it was difficult to see from the top or the bottom of the mountain. They all said that if they hid the seriously wounded in the cave, there would be no one in the village, and no one would show their mouths, and that nothing would go wrong, not to mention that the officers and soldiers would not go to that barren valley, and even if they were ordered to walk through it, they would never know that there was a cave and a half miles deep on the cliff where people could be hidden. ”
Li Zicheng was still a little uneasy after listening to Gao Yigong's words, he turned his head to look at Old Man Du, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle, is there anyone in our village who has anything to do with the villagers?"
"There used to be, but they all had a small fortune, and they escaped in their hearts and never came back. Old man Du told Li Zicheng in detail that this poor village has only produced a prominent person in recent decades, and his family has a few hectares of land and a mountain.
A few years ago, Cao Cao's men and horses had beaten down here, burned down his house, and cut down a few people, and he himself fled to Xi'an Mansion and did not dare to come back; there was also a local rich man nearby, who had dealings with Beixiang, and fled to Huayin City the year before last, and the house where the old camp lived was the land rich man's family.
Now all the people who stay in the village are poor and fearless, and they have no contact with those rich cottages. It turned out that there were a few dogs, some died, some escaped, and one was in the village, lost his backer, and honestly planted a large hillside land.
After listening to Old Man Du's words, Li Zicheng asked again: "If you don't know how to go out of the way, I'll leave the color number here for a few days." Please take care of your old people and fellow villagers, I will not forget you. ”
"Rest assured, there will be no wind and grass. "When the old man was young, he sometimes mixed with the club, kidnapping tickets, blackmailing, and hiding meat tickets, all of which were fine, and now he is not old-hearted.
Li Zicheng received a satisfactory answer, and immediately asked his wife Gao to take out one hundred taels of silver, and he personally handed the silver to Du Zongwen, and asked him to distribute it to the villagers in the whole village to express his gratitude to the people in the village.
Lao Du Tou understood that greed was the natural enemy of the longevity of the younger brother of the community, thinking about this, he resolutely refused to accept Li Zicheng's gift, patted his dry ribs "shyly", and said to Li Zicheng: "Lord Chuang, you have just taken out thirty taels of silver to help the people of the whole village, and we will never accept this hundred taels of silver!
After a while, the old man was hindered by the sincerity of the big man, so he had to reluctantly accept the money, and at the same time promised to distribute it to the villagers tonight; during the conversation, the old man Du told Li Zicheng that at present, the people in the whole village had been cut off, and they were thinking about how to live, and now they were all right, with the one hundred and thirty taels of silver given by the king of Chuang, they really saved the lives of the whole village. As he spoke, his tears rolled down without money, and at the same time he did not forget to salute Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang.
Li Zicheng turned to Gao Yigong and asked, "When will you carry the injury over?"
Gao Yigong didn't think about it, so he replied: "I have already sent the chief manager to prepare, and I will send someone to deliver it immediately, and the people here are also preparing ladders and ropes...... Double Happiness also said that he would go with them to see for himself. ”
After pausing for a moment, he said to Zicheng again, "I saw Shang Ziming just now, and he also sent a capable apprentice to stay with the seriously injured people, but it's a pity that there is too little medicine, and the Jinchuang medicine is almost used up." ”
"Leave a little more money and find a way to scrape together a little more rations to stay. "Li Zicheng is a hero on the rivers and lakes, but he can mix with the heroes who Chongzhen never forgets, and who is not a hero, he understands people's hearts very thoroughly, and leaves food to leave vitality, otherwise in the years when human life is as cheap as a dog, it is impossible to say that jade will be burned.
"It's all arranged!" Gao Yigong is not purely dependent on nepotism, he is also a general, and he can guard Yulin alone to fight Azig's heroes, and none of the survivors in the thirteen families of Kuidong are given in vain.
"What about the guide?" Li Zicheng had not yet seen the growth direction of his brother-in-law, so he asked uneasily.
Before Gao Yigong could speak this time, the old man Du Zongwen hurriedly replied: "I've found the one with the strips! King Chuang, it's the back pot girl who came with me to see you just now." He begged for food in the countryside of Tongguan for three years, and the mountains and rivers here, the ditches and ditches, which family has dogs, and which door raises chickens are all familiar with it. ”
Li Zicheng listened to Old Man Du's black words, and called the road a strip and the guide a strip. In this way, it is even more certain that this person must have Xuanji in the background column.
King Chuang nodded, and said with a slight groan: "It's good, it's just that I'm a little older, and I'm afraid I won't be able to stand it." In fact, Li Zicheng is optimistic about Du Zongwen, an old Jianghu, but he can't open his mouth. The temporary job of leading the way is dangerous, and he is embarrassed to send all the Du family to the tiger's mouth of the official army.
Du Zongwen's mind turned quickly, and he said in his heart, "Buying cakes, when I was young, the people in the rivers and lakes called the brocade-haired glazed mouse, and now I want to beat my abacus, let my old man lead the way!"
He immediately said to Li Zicheng: "Chuang Wangye, the age of carrying the blame is not too old! He has suffered since he was a child, he has never stretched a day in his life to be aggrieved, he has been tortured by the evil feudal society to the appearance of old age, in fact, there is a fire burning in his heart, and his biological age is less than forty-five miles. You see, people are not yet at the age of delaying retirement, and Widow Chen has just measured the speed of the short race with the pot a few years ago, I feel that his legs and feet are good, as long as his stomach is full, the pot will not have to be used anymore, so that he will cross the mountains and mountains, cross the river and cross the sea like a young man. ”
Li Zicheng heard that it was really like this, once he filled the back pot, it was the meaning of eating a full meal as the pole said in black words, and the use of the back pot might be greater than that of Bolt.
"Ah, I thought he was in his fifties. Who is there in his family? Does he have a wife and children?" Li Zicheng felt that this person was available, so he wanted to take it with a silver bullet.
Lao Du, who became the chairman of the peasant association, had a feeling of finding an organization, and he said indignantly, "Fart's wife and children, he only has an old mother who is almost seventy years old. The ingredients of the back pot are very reliable, his ancestors have been extremely poor for three generations, and Hanwa has begged for food since he was a child, herding sheep and cattle for the rich man...... I can't afford it, and I also changed my ancestral field to two-thirds of my family......"
