Chapter 23 Old Age Leads to Evil
When Zhang Wu came back, Zhang Hui was squatting on the ground playing with Zhang Qi, only to see his index finger being held tightly by Zhang Qi.
Before Zhang Wu walked in, Zhang Hui smiled and said to him: "This kid has a lot of strength." ”
While speaking, Zhang Hui "broken" his small hand and pulled out his index finger, "You can try it too." ”
Zhang Wu didn't know why, but he still stretched out a finger in front of Zhang Qi.
Zhang Qi grinned deliberately, and then bit down hard.
Zhang picked up the teeth that had just grown a little bit, and bit Zhang Wu's index finger fiercely. Zhang Wu didn't dare to pull back hard, for fear of breaking his gums.
Under Zhang Hui's laughter, Zhang Qi finally opened his mouth.
"With such good teeth, it will definitely be a rice bucket in the future. Zhang Wu wiped the blood stains on his right hand and scolded with a smile.
"The rice bucket should also be raised!" Zhang Hui asked with a smile, "How's the strength?"
Glancing at his fingers, Zhang Wu replied, "It seems to be not small." ”
"It should be innate divine power, and he can't see it now. If you grow up, you should still be able to lift a thousand pounds. ”
Teasing Zhang Qi, before he knew it, he walked to a small village.
The village has long since fallen into ruins, and some of the houses are estimated to have been abandoned for several years.
A few families must have fled recently, and the houses are still intact, but the grain and softness inside are gone.
Zhang Hui and the three of them were greeted by a vicious dog, whose spotted white fur was covered with sand and mud, and the fur on the right side of his body also had traces of being burned by the fire.
It's thin, and it's normal to be thin at this time, but it's a little scary to be so thin that only the bones are left.
Flowing with a harass, the two front legs stretched out and lowered his body to stare at Zhang Hui and the three of them, with a low sound in his mouth from time to time, as if he would pounce at any time.
Zhang Wu took a step forward to attract its gaze, slowly turned his face towards it, looked at it, and smiled quietly at it.
"Wow!" Suddenly, Zhang Wu's muscles instantly exerted, the bruises on his face burst out, and his eyes were bloodshot as if they were about to burst out of their sockets.
The vicious dog was so frightened that its front legs fell to the ground for fear of losing its strength. The next moment, it barked and fled.
The vicious dog fled, Zhang Wu also recovered his expression, turned around and smiled heartily, winked at Zhang Qi as if inviting merit, and Zhang Qi smiled and clapped his hands to express his happiness.
"There's still smoke over there, let's go check it out. ”
When I looked up, I could see that the chimney of a house was emitting smoke.
Maybe I heard the barking of dogs, the family was already standing at the door, five old people, all with gray hair, and one of them was still shaking against the wall, and it seemed that he was very sick.
They all have "weapons" such as kitchen knives and wood knives in their hands.
"Hello grandparents, we are fleeing, we see a village here, come over tonight to spend the night. Zhang Hui greeted them with a smile.
An old man's eyes rolled and rolled over them, and finally he exhaled deeply and said, "It's a guest from afar, come in and sit." ”
"Thank you. ”
Zhang Hui and Zhang Wu are very happy, people are social animals, and when they meet a "group", they will have a sense of belonging.
The strange thing is that Zhang Qi, who had been smiling, fell silent when he saw a few of them, and frowned from time to time.
Although the frown was ridiculous to him, where did a one-year-old kid get his eyebrows?
The five old men are all the people left in this village, it is not easy to give birth to a child in the frontier land, plus the battle a few days ago, those who can escape have also fled, leaving only the five old men gathered here, waiting for death.
After saying thank you, Zhang Hui took a cup of tea with both hands, sat on a chair next to him, and casually asked and asked them. "What are you going to do?"
"What else can I do? Live one day at a time, anyway, we are all so old, and if we live, we will all suffer, we just don't have the courage to commit suicide. The leader sighed and handed Zhang Wu a cup of tea.
Zhang Wu had traveled such a long way, and he had never drunk any serious water along the way, so how could such a cup of warm and cool tea not enter in one sip? After drinking a cup, he asked for another cup.
Zhang Hui smiled, and just as he was about to drink it, he put down the cup and stood up and walked in the direction of the kitchen. As he walked, he asked, "You have lived here for so long, you should know more about the border army, right?"
The leader quietly picked up Zhang Hui's cup of tea, walked in front of Zhang Hui, and said slowly: "What's the use of living for so long? It's not like this? But if you have any questions, just ask, if the old man knows, he will definitely tell you." ”
After speaking, the tea in the man's hand was handed to Zhang Hui, and he touched Zhang Hui's cup with his own cup, and drank it all.
Zhang Hui was stunned for a moment, and then took the cup and was about to send it to his mouth. However, he seemed to think of something, and asked, "Do you know the Hundred Ghost Generals?"
"Hundred ghost generals?" The old man saw that Zhang Hui didn't drink, and he didn't have any expression, but replied blankly: "I haven't heard of it." ”
"That should be considered a military secret. Zhang Hui said to himself, and was about to drink, but he put down the cup and walked to the stove.
Unceremoniously opened the lid of the pot and saw pieces of white meat and bones inside.
The meat has been stewed and should have broken when touched, and the white bones are oozing bone oil little by little, revealing a smell that is very similar to the aroma of chicken.
"Wow!" The moment Zhang Hui opened the lid of the pot, Zhang Qi cried out and was scared to cry.
Hearing the cry, Zhang Wu stood up and looked this way, wondering what was going on. But his mind instantly became confused, and his vision became blurry.
Zhang Wu calmed down and shook his head vigorously, wanting to drive away the "chaos" in his mind, but his eyes went dark, and the whole person fell on the table in front of him.
Without the slightest surprise, Zhang Hui looked at everyone and looked at Zhang Wu who had fainted.
His eyes were playful, as if everything was under control.
The five people touched the weapons around them, but they were afraid of Zhang Hui and didn't dare to step forward easily. Zhang Hui shrugged his shoulders with a chuckle: "You shouldn't be able to beat me." ”
Zhang Hui has no fear, he is sure of dealing with five strong men, not to mention just the old man in front of him who has lost half of his teeth?
The leader was still "knowledgeable", and he threw away a dagger hidden in his hand and fell to his knees, repeating his life in his mouth.
An old man kowtowed to him, Zhang Hui didn't dare to stand it, and hurriedly turned sideways to avoid it.
Zhang Hui's face tightened, thinking that there was not only sweat medicine in the tea, so he walked to Zhang Wu's side in three steps and tested his nose. Seeing that he was breathing steadily, the stone in his heart also fell to the ground.
"Do you know what the situation is like on this side of the army?" but he immediately shook his head and laughed to himself, "How can you know?"
As he spoke, he lifted Zhang Wu and walked out of the house. The five people stood to the side in a daze, the expressions on their faces changed and changed, but they couldn't make any movements.
The practices of these people made Zhang Hui feel that they were unforgivable, but they were too old and kept kowtowing to him, which made Zhang Hui very embarrassed, although he felt disgusting, he had no way to kill the killer, so he could only let them fend for themselves.
found an empty house, put Zhang Wu and Zhang Qi on the bed, and Zhang Hui began to make food. Of course, because there were five old people nearby, Zhang Hui was still more careful to avoid capsizing in the gutter.
After getting the rice, let's feed Zhang Qi first. Because of seeing such a pot of things, Zhang Hui and Zhang Qi couldn't have a good appetite, so they only ate a little.
After feeding Zhang Qi, he wanted to wake up Zhang Wu.
However, the effect of the sweat medicine was relatively strong, Zhang Wu drank two cups in succession, no matter how Zhang Hui shook him, he didn't feel it, and even sprayed him with cold water in his face, he still didn't wake up, and finally had to give up.
It's still a boring night, or a boring vigil. It's really easy to get sleepy when a person is in a daze with nothing to do, but fortunately there are marksmanship to practice, otherwise how to pass this kind of night?
When it was about a child's time, Zhang Wu woke up. Zhang Hui didn't care about his doubts, so he told him that the food was still in the pot, asked him to get it himself, and told him to remember to keep vigil after eating, and then went to sleep directly.
This day is really tiring.
