That night, the captain found a famous restaurant and arranged a meal for them all.
At the wine table, many empty promises for promotion and wealth were promised.
The old ball guy didn't drink, and he didn't believe the captain's nonsense. After the banquet ended, he did not go to see off those who drank too much, but walked home quietly by himself.
His home was on the edge of the county town, and he was about to enter the mountains. When he walked to a remote road, Lao Qiuzi saw a familiar figure in front of him, holding a box cannon pointed at him, but his gun was not yet Unholstered the gun.
Lao Qiuzi has already predicted that Xiao Wuzi may appear at any time. He thought carefully about it at home for a day and guessed that it was not that Xiaowuzi had not seen him, but that he had deliberately appeared in front of him and let him see it. In this way, he would be confused and might make a mistake.
He was already very careful, but this time he was on a mission and there was nothing he could do, and he thought the people arrested might be Xiao Wuzi and his group.
Lao Qiuzi raised his hands and stopped slowly.
"Master, why are you here? You're not looking for me specifically, are you?"
Xiao Wuzi reached out and took out his box gun from Lao Qiuzi's holster, and then said: "I don't dare to take over your home. Your boss is Japanese. I came here specifically to find you this time. Don't think about it. Resistance, you know my little five's shooting skills."
Lao Qiuzi nodded and said: "Head of the family, you and I are each our own masters. There is nothing we can do about it. If you have anything to ask, can you ask? I won't hide anything I know from you. For the sake of our brother, I will give it to my brother." A happy one.”
Then he said, "I'm a big smoker. Can I have a cigarette before I leave?" Seeing Xiao Wuzi nodding, he took out the cigarette from his coat pocket, struck a match and lit it. He took a long puff, and then when Xiao Wuzi wasn't paying attention, he suddenly flicked the cigarette towards Xiao Wuzi's face. Xiao Wuzi had been on guard for this move, so he turned his head and dodged, but Old Qiuzi's body had already escaped. Xiao Wuzi raised the gun but did not pull the trigger.
As soon as the old ball took a few steps, he was kicked back by a big foot in the chest. Erniu had been waiting for him for a long time behind him. Erniu looked at the old Qiuzi lying on the ground vomiting and felt a little uncomfortable. After all, these were good brothers who had been inseparable!
Xiaowuzi squatted down and asked: "Why do you want to kill Uncle Pi?" Laoqiuzi turned over and simply lay on the ground and replied: "It's not that I want to kill him, it's that he wants to kill me. He may have discovered his conscience. , or maybe he risked his life and regretted surrendering to us.
He knew that I was the only one in the team who knew his details, so he sneaked back quietly and tricked me out in the name of asking me to report the news, in order to get rid of me. After I die, no one will know that he surrendered, and he is still the third leader of Haishan Camp.
It's just that I discovered his intention and acted faster than him. "
At this time, Xiao Wuzi had checked every detail of the matter in his mind and found that he was not lying, so it was correct.
Xiaowuzi asked again: "Do you have any regrets? Brothers, we can help you solve it." Old Qiuzi smiled, looked back at Erniu and said: "Brother Erniu, let's be true brothers in the next life, please brother Let me reward you with your whole body, right?"
Xiao Wuzi and Er Niu really did not use swords and guns, but tied Lao Qiuzi to his legs and hanged him on a small poplar tree as wide as a bowl.
When the old man died, the two brothers placed his body in a ditch on the side of the road and kicked down some floating soil on the edge of the ditch to cover it.
The two set off overnight towards Lao Haishan's hiding place. When we arrived at the place, it was already past four o'clock in the middle of the night, and it was almost dawn.
Erniu asked Xiao Wuzi on the road: "How come you don't feel happy after taking revenge, but instead feel a little uncomfortable?" Xiao Wuzi thought for a while and replied: "Maybe you have been hanging out with him every day these days, and you have already made him feel uncomfortable." He has become a brother. Although Lao Qiuzi is an enemy, he can still find no fault with his behavior."
In the colorful autumn, it is already very cold in the morning and evening, so you have to wear cotton-padded clothes. But at noon, when there is enough sunshine, it gets hot again. It is so hot that I want to go shirtless like in summer.
The three of them climbed up the mountain. They were so tired that their bodies were covered with sweat. There was a huge pear tree on the sunny slope near the ridge. It was the Qiuzi pear that is common in the Northeast. People in the Northeast freeze this kind of pear in winter and then use cold water to soften it. Eat.
This kind of pear is very sour and very sweet when ripe, but it only takes about ten days from ripening to falling to the ground. Therefore, people's impression of it will always remain in a scene that makes people lose their teeth. Even if they think of it, their cheeks will burst into acid.
Xiao Wuzi and Er Niu picked up ripe fruits that were not rotten on the ground and ate them. Xiao Wuzi handed a few pears to Lao Haishan, who was leaning against the roots of a tree and kept coughing. They could suppress the cough.
Erniu found a bunch of pears, about a dozen of them, as if someone had put them together deliberately. All of them were ripe but not rotten.
He shouted to Xiao Wuzi as if he had picked up a treasure. Xiao Wuzi shook his head with a smirk on his face, but took out his gun and looked around.
Lao Haishan took a breath and said: "It's okay. It looks cold at first glance. I guess it was left over from the past two days."
Erniu looked at these two people inexplicably while eating pears. Why couldn't he understand what they were saying?
The pears Erniu ate were very sweet, even sweeter than the ones he picked up on the ground just now. He gave it to Xiaowuzi, but Xiaowuzi didn't eat it and looked at him with a smile.
Then Lao Haishan said to Er Niu: "The pile of pears you picked up was the shit that the black blind man pooped out. The black blind man often swallows pears whole, so when he poops them out, they are still whole. But those pears are really sweet." , I’ve eaten it too.”
Erniu's eyes widened, and the pear in his hand was still near his mouth. His mouth was open, and he didn't know whether to swallow or spit out the pear in his mouth. Turning around to look at Xiao Wuzi, Xiao Wuzi said with a smile: "Eat it, it's okay. I've eaten it too, but it sounds disturbing to me. In fact, it's okay after eating it. It's quite delicious."
Erniu finally spit out what was in his mouth and threw away the pear he was holding in his hand like a treasure.
The three of them walked westward along the Huifa River. They crossed the mountain here because the river made two turns here, so there would be fewer detours when climbing over the mountain. The name of this place is Wangba Neck.
It has been three days since they left Huadian, and they have probably arrived in Huinan County. Their goal this time is Chaoyang Town. Because there is the person Lao Haishan is looking for.
They used a magnifying glass to look at the small film carefully these days, but it was useless because it contained some Japanese documents. Although these three people are all literate, none of them understand Japanese. The only thing I can do is find someone who understands Japanese.
Xiaowuzi couldn't help but think of several people. Sister Yun and her fiancé Jin Liangke all knew Japanese. Hey, Sister Yun rebelled and may have been eliminated. Jin Liang is a good friend, but will he still pay attention to me without Sister Yun?
When we were going down the mountain, Erniu said that you should go first, I have to go take a dump, and he got into the bushes while saying this.
Xiaowuzi laughed at him from behind: "They are all big men, what are you afraid of? Who doesn't have what you have?"
However, the two of them were not in a hurry to leave. Instead, they sat on the hillside and waited for him, because large wild animals such as black blind wild boars often appeared in the deep mountains and wilderness, and there were even tigers in some places.
After a while, their worries became reality,
Er Niu ran out from the bushes holding up his pants. Although he held up his pants, he ran very fast.
When Xiao Wuzi looked back, he realized that there was a wild boar coming behind him. The big one weighed about three hundred kilograms. It was running behind the two cows, running faster than the two cows.
Seeing that they were about to catch up, Xiaowuzi pointed at the big rock next to him. Erniu understood the idea and turned a sharp corner. He stepped forward and stepped on the stone with his first foot. Using the reaction force, he kicked off the tree trunk next to him. , rushed upward, and the next step was to climb onto a large rock as high as a person.
The wild boar from behind also rushed over. It couldn't reach the big rock, but it was still not finished. It turned around and almost knocked down the small tree with its mouth.
Er Niu leaned on the big rock and gasped for air. Xiao Wuzi had already taken aim. "Bang." There was a gunshot, and the wild boar let out a strange cry, turned around and ran away as fast as when he came, as if he was not injured.
Xiao Wuzi was stunned, and even Erniu on the big rock was stunned. With Xiao Wuzi's shooting skills, how could he miss it from such a close distance?
Lao Haishan came over coughing and asked Xiao Wuzi to chase the wild boar, and Xiao Wuzi chased out with a gun. Erniu was still in shock, so he asked: "Uncle, did you hit it? Why doesn't it seem like you missed it?"
But Lao Haishan asked him to come down and look for it with Xiao Wuzi. Only Lao Haishan knew how difficult it was to kill wild boars. However, with Xiao Wuzi's shooting skills, he should have hit it, but the wild boar is like that, it can still run two miles away after being hit in the head.
Er Niu got down and put on his pants, took out his gun and followed him. His face was a little red, and he almost let the wild boar hump him when he was shitting. It would be very embarrassing to tell people about this. Er Niu had never felt so ashamed.
The two of them actually chased for seven or eight hundred meters before they saw the wild boar lying in the grass and still breathing heavily. This thing is too durable. Xiaowuzi knows that it has a layer of armor made of pine oil and soil on the ground, so it cannot be shot. When I fired the gun just now, I aimed at its eyes. Who would have thought that the bullet would go into the brain? It can still run this far before dying.
The wild boar was so big that it was difficult for them to carry it, so Xiaowuzi had to cut a few long branches and tie them into a sledge to drag them along.
But it's downhill, so I can still drag it. Lao Haishan said: "I see there are several families at the foot of the mountain. Let's find a place to stay. Can you borrow a horse-drawn carriage to pull us around?"
Erniu said: "Let Xiao Wuzi go. He has a sweet mouth and good looks, and people will be proud of him wherever he goes." Lao Haishan nodded, and Xiao Wuzi went down the mountain without saying a word.
