Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Burning of Guniu Ridge
Xiong Weiyuan was shocked and said: "Brother Luo, this is absolutely unacceptable! Your great kindness, our big guy has nothing to repay, if we take your money again, then do our big guys still have the face to be a man?"
Everyone in the dart game also refused, in vain, today's battle of Guniuling was almost the strength of Luo Gongzi alone, and he basically didn't interfere, how could he ask for other people's money in turn?
Tan Yang said seriously: "Chief dart, after this battle, you will definitely not be able to stay in Yishui City, the 50,000 taels of silver will be distributed to everyone as a settlement fee, and I would like to solemnly remind you here, today's matter is best to rot to the stomach, and never mention it to anyone again." In addition, Ying'er's sister has grown up, and the remaining 18,000 taels are the dowry given to her by her brother. ”
Xiong Ying'er blushed and said angrily: "I understand my brother's kindness, but I will never want this money." ”
"Brother Luo, don't worry, today's events are at stake with everyone's lives, whether you give money or not, we don't dare to reveal the slightest thing. Xiong Weiyuan has rich experience, as if he guessed a little bit of Luo Gongzi's worries, "I know that Yishui City will definitely not be able to stay for a long time, this time I will disband the Weiyuan Dart Bureau and sell the Dart Bureau compound, so naturally I have the money to let everyone go to another country." As for Brother Luo's money, you just said that we can't ask for any of it. ”
Next, after several pushes and pushes, finally under Tan Yang's resolute request, Xiong Weiyuan reluctantly accepted his silver ticket of 28,000 taels. Everyone in the dart game was already grateful to Luo Gongzi, and this time, they were naturally more grateful to Dade, such a huge amount of money, even if the entire Weiyuan dart game worked hard, I don't know how many years it would take to earn it!
Tan Yang put away the silver ticket, and his heart blossomed, 90,000 taels, no need to sweat, no need to bleed, the whole 90,000 taels of snowflake silver, it flowed into his pocket, the wind blew the willows, and the water in the small river flowed la......
Who said pie doesn't fall from the sky? That's because he doesn't have a good name called God.
"Brother Luo, what should we do next?" Xiong Wei said from afar, now he was convinced by the fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy in front of him.
"When you first received the dart, Lin Yanke explained how to hand over the dart?" Tan Yang said.
Yes, but he didn't specify a specific location or contact person. Xiong Wei said from afar, "He just said that when he arrived in Jinghai City, Lanzhou County, naturally someone would take the initiative to find us." ”
"That's that there is no receiver at all. Tan Yang muttered, "Lin Yan's original plan was originally to rob the dart halfway, and I didn't expect you to really arrive in Jinghai City. However, Yishui City knows that there are a lot of people in Weiyuan Dart Bureau, in order to hide people's eyes, you still have to go to Jinghai City and then return, in this way, no matter how great the Ren Lin family is, they can't find out the strangeness of this. ”
"Good idea! Xiong Weiyuan happily obeyed, "Guys, get on the horse and pull out!"
"Wait!" Tan Yang said with a smile, "Leave a few people behind, put a fire, and today we will burn Guniuling." ”
"Set fire?" Xiong Weiyuan hesitated.
Tan Yang affirmed: "Of course, kill people and set fires, since we have already killed people, we naturally have to set fires!"
Xiong Weiyuan suddenly realized, the hillside in front of him was overgrown with weeds, and a fire would burn, and all traces of evidence would also be wiped out with Lin Yan and his men, "Okay! Which of you wants to stay and set this fire?"
The crowd in the dart game, especially those young people, scrambled to shout, who wants to let go of such an interesting thing?
After half a pillar of incense, not long after the dart convoy crossed the Guniu Ridge, billowing smoke rose behind them, and a mountain fire burned brightly.
"Guys, run!" Xiong Weiyuan shook his horsewhip and slapped it hard, laughing and said, "Run slowly, we big guys are really going to play with fire!"
As soon as the convoy of the dart bureau descended to the foot of Guniuling Mountain, the raging fire had spread to this side of the mountain, and the smoke was thick and the flames were soaring into the sky, almost obscuring half of the sky......
**
In Qingzhou County, on the wide official road.
Two days later, at noon, Tan Yang followed the Weiyuan Dart Bureau convoy, has come to the ground of Panlong Mountain, in front of him is an intersection, along the country road on the right to the north, most of the day's work, you can return to Tan Yang Chaosi dream of Liuhua Village.
It's just that the mountain road is difficult and not easy to ride, so Tan Yang simply left the horse he bought and prepared to walk home.
When the time finally came to break up, Xiong Weiyuan and everyone in the dart game were reluctant, and said goodbye countless times, while Xiong Ying'er had red circles in her eyes, but she didn't say a word.
Before leaving, Tan Yang called Xiong Weiyuan aside and said in a low voice: "Chief Darthead, after leaving Yishui City in the future, do you have a proper place to go?"
Xiong Weiyuan sighed and said: "No, I can only take one step at a time, the world is big, there should always be a place for my old bear to live!"
"If that's the case...... Tan Yang suddenly changed the subject, "Chief dart, Ying'er has grown up, have you ever been married before?"
"Nope. Xiong Weiyuan looked at Tan Yang meaningfully, and said happily, "What's the matter, if Brother Luo doesn't dislike it, I have no opinion, you can take Ying'er home now......
"No, no, no, the head of the dart is misunderstood. Tan Yang blushed and shook his hand and said, "Don't tell the head of the dart, it's not that I don't like Ying'er, but I'm in trouble now, not only will I be adrift in the future, but I will always be in danger, how can I let Ying'er follow me to live such a frightened life?"
Xiong Weiyuan said disappointedly: "What does Brother Naluo mean, just say it." ”
Tan Yang pondered for a moment, and said: "Chief dart, I have a brother surnamed Shen, my character is not to be said, and his family is also wealthy, but there are a few pockmarks on his face, if Ying'er doesn't dislike it......"
**
The eastern territory of the Great Chu Dynasty. In Qingzhou County. At the foot of the southern foot of Panlong Mountain.
Outside Liuhua Village, by the Liuhua River in the southeast corner.
A lush green reed, a lonely farmhouse courtyard.
Bamboo fence. Firewood. Thatched huts.
It was already nightfall, and the small mountain village not far away was lit up, and a few geese and dogs barked from time to time, just like the plainness and warmth of a paradise.
The windows of the thatched huts also reveal dim lights, making the whole farm yard look peaceful and warm.
In the house, the green lights are like beans.
Tan Qiushan sat sideways on the edge of the bed, holding a medicine bowl in his hand, and was feeding his wife on the sickbed spoonful by spoonful.
Suddenly, there was a squeak, and the firewood in the small courtyard was pushed away.
"Yang Zai!" his wife said in surprise, "Akiyama, go out and have a look, is Yang Zai back?"
Tan Qiushan shook his head helplessly, and said with a smile: "Old woman, you are really old and confused, even if you want to have children, you won't take you like this." Since the child left, every time someone pushed the door, you said that the child came back, how many times has this been? Let me tell you again, the place where Yang Tsai went was far, far away, and he couldn't come back for a while. This must be someone who came to our house to seek medical advice, not Yangzi's. ”
After speaking, Tan Qiushan turned his head and shouted outside the door: "Who is here? ”
As soon as the words fell, with a rush of running, the curtain of the door was lifted, and a young man in blue with a wrap on his back ran in, knelt down on his knees in front of the bed with a pop, and shouted in a choked voice: "Dad!
Tan Qiushan and his wife were taken aback, and they didn't react for a while.
Tan Yang then remembered that in order to hide people's eyes, on the way home, he had already put the captured human skin mask on his face. He ripped off the mask and said excitedly: "Dad, mother, it's me, the unfilial child is back!"
Tan Qiushan's eyes were wet all of a sudden, and his wife cried with joy, and said incoherently: "I'm not dreaming, am I? ”
The surprise came so suddenly, the family of three was immersed in the joy of reunion, in the simple and simple small thatched hut, the lights were flickering, laughter and happiness......
Tan Yang's childlike heart rose, just like a child who was eager to show off in front of his parents, he first took out all the gold and silver in the Qiankun bag and piled it on the bed, "Dad, mother, you see, the child has become rich, and your good days will come in the future." ”
The mother was overjoyed, trembling her hands groped for the pile of gold and silver, and said in surprise: "My God, so much, there are three or four hundred taels of silver, right? ”
Tan Qiushan was overjoyed at first, but then his face sank, and he said hurriedly: "So much, stinky boy, have you done anything bad, otherwise how could you make so much money in such a short time!"
"Dad, don't worry, the child neither stole nor robbed, I earned all this money in the bright light!" Tan Yang smiled slightly, and then whispered mysteriously, "Where is this, I still have it here!"
"And?" said the mother, in surprise, "how many more?"
"Ten thousand taels!"
Tan Qiushan breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head and smiled: "Roll the calf! It's only 10,000 taels? It's not 100,000 taels? By the way, you haven't eaten so late, right? I don't listen to your nonsense, you accompany your mother to talk, and your father will cook for you. ”
"Wait a minute, my dad is just smart, and he can guess it. Dad, you sit down first, your legs are not good, don't be scared later. Tan Yang smiled, "Mother, I said 10,000 taels, my father said 100,000 taels, what do you say 100,000 taels minus 10,000 taels?"
"Of course it's 90,000 taels, my mother is old, but I'm not so confused that I don't know how to count. Alas, my father and mother are old, but my boy has grown into a big guy. The mother did not take her son's nonsense to heart, but just stroked her son's head, and her eyes were full of love and joy, and she was reluctant to blink her eyelids.
Tan Yang took out the thick stack of silver tickets, held them in front of his parents, and said with a smile: "Dad guessed right, my mother was also right, it's not bad at all, there are 90,000 taels here!"
