Zhou Wen walked into the room again and said to Zhang Xiaoping: "Junior brother, have you heard everything?" Zhang Xiaoping just nodded with tears in his eyes, but was speechless. Zhou Wen helped him up, helped him put on his clothes and shoes, and helped him out of the house.
The two came to the old Taoist Zi Qing's seat, and Zhou Wen said: "Junior brother, although I have just entered the master's door today, I have to shoulder the responsibilities of a senior brother. Now you kneel down in front of the master."
"Kneel down!" Zhou Wen suddenly shouted. The entire audience was stunned by Zhou Wen. The scholar had never been angry with anyone, so why was he so strict with his junior brother today?
Zhang Xiaoping knelt down in front of Zi Qing with a bang, his eyes filled with tears even more, and his mouth opened and closed but no sound came out.
"Bring me a whip." Zhou Wen shouted. The boy next to him took a whip that was used to beat the bandit just now and handed it to Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen took the whip and said loudly: "The revenge of killing one's mother is irreconcilable, and it is not a human son to not avenge a second revenge. But we cannot act recklessly with passion. We do not examine the geographical location, do not understand the enemy's situation, and do not prepare for a long-term battle with the enemy." , acted in a hurry, and finally fell into the enemy's trap, it was because of ignorance."
After saying that, he slapped Zhang Xiaoping on the back with a whip. I saw old and new wounds on Zhang Xiaoping's back bursting together, and blood was instantly printed on his clothes. It hurt so much that tears and runny noses flowed, and my mouth was wide open and I was hoarse.
The corners of Zi Qing's eyes twitched, but he still kept his mouth shut and refrained from speaking.
Zhou Wen continued: "Master treats you like a son, but you ignore his feelings and take risks alone. I don't know how the master can abandon you and ignore you, causing the master to fall into a desperate situation to save you. This is unjust."
After saying that, he was whipped again. The old Taoist couldn't hold back his tears, and with tears in his eyes he watched his beloved disciple's face twisting in physical pain and mental torture.
Zhou Wen said loudly again: "Master's kindness in raising you for sixteen years, how much of it was hard work, how much of effort was spent, but you just said: 'I will repay you in the next life.' It ended here? Who do you think you are? You are worthy of saying that." Will you retaliate in the next life? What future life will you have? This is a great act of unfilial piety."
After saying that, he was whipped again.
"You are ignorant, unjust, and unfilial. Senior brother, I will punish you on behalf of the master. Do you accept it or not?" Zhou Wen roared loudly.
Zhang Xiaoping was tortured to the point of breaking his heart. His breath came to his heart and was blocked. He was holding his master's legs with both hands but could not speak. His mouth was so wide that foam was flowing out, and his eyes were bulging to the point of bursting.
At this time, Miaohua suddenly hit his vest with a palm, "Pfft!" With a sound, Zhang Xiaoping spurted out a mouthful of blood, followed by loud wailing and shouting: "Master, master, I was wrong, I'm sorry, master!" !”
Zhou Wen breathed out lightly. Fortunately, Senior Brother Miaohua was indeed a master, and his timing was perfect. Finally, the junior brother was rescued from autistic state.
The old Taoist had long been so distressed that he hugged Zhang Xiaoping, and said with tears in his eyes: "My good disciple, you are back. Master does not blame you, he has never blamed you." The master and the apprentice hugged each other and cried.
Everyone looked at it with sighs. When the master and the disciple came to their senses, Zhang Xiaoping's depression had subsided. He turned around on his knees and bowed to Zhou Wen. Zhou Wen quickly pulled him up and said, "Junior brother, what are you doing? Brothers don’t do this."
"Thank you, senior brother, for helping me avenge my blood. Thank you, senior brother, for making me understand my mistake. I am truly convinced by my brother's punishment. Please don't despise me for being stupid and teach me my skills."
After Zhang Xiaoping finished speaking with tears in his eyes, he bowed to Zhou Wen. Zhou Wen stepped forward and held his shoulders with both hands, smiling and looking at him carefully.
Zhang Xiaoping is slightly shorter than Zhou Wen. He is well-proportioned and strong. Most of the bruises on his face have disappeared. His big eyes are still wet with tears under his thick eyebrows. He has a baby face and a little baby fat on his cheeks. He is clearly still a big boy.
Zhou Wen lovingly wiped away his tears and said: "People are not afraid of making mistakes, and they are not saints. Everyone makes mistakes. But few people can correct their mistakes if they know them. Not only can you correct your mistakes, but you can also learn from them. Yes, that is even less.
I hope, junior brother, you are the latter type of person. As for learning skills from me, that's not a problem. As long as I know how to do it, senior brother, I will teach you. The key is that you have to work hard and endure great hardships. "
"I can endure hardship. As long as my senior brother finds me lazy, just whip me and I will accept it." Zhang Xiaoping nodded seriously to Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen laughed loudly, couldn't help but stretched out his hand to tug Zhang Xiaoping's baby cheeks, and said: "Senior brothers usually don't hit people. You are my junior brother, how can I be willing to beat you? Today is to treat your illness, not to mention your mistake It's a bit serious. I just hope that when you do things in the future, you will think about today's beating.
Okay, we brothers will go to the incense burner to burn incense for your mother. The time has come for us to take revenge. "
As he walked, he rubbed his fingers and exclaimed, "This feels so good. I'm afraid my fat cheeks will often become swollen in the future."
Old Taoist Zi Qing looked at the friendly and harmonious figures of the two brothers and smiled happily. I just felt that I no longer had any worries in this life, and I felt more comfortable and free than I had ever felt before.
The bandits, led by Qi Laoliu, knelt in three rows on the open ground. Previously, Wang Huzi had taken out those who had joined the bandits for less than half a year and whose hands were not stained with blood to watch their executions. The more than seventy people kneeling now are all bandits with many years of experience.
Wang Huzi was dressed in a military uniform, carrying a big knife on his back, and a captured big-eye licker on his waist. Zhou Wen didn't dare to borrow it again this time, it was only the third best thing.
With tears in Wang Huzi's eyes, he held a wine bowl in his hand and looked up to the sky and shouted: "Dahu, Brother Gao, all young and old men, Wang Huzi has avenged you today. I hope your souls in heaven will no longer be sad, just close your eyes."
After saying that, he saluted the wine bowl to the sky, poured half of the bowl on the ground, drank the rest in one gulp, wiped his beard, and strode to Qi Laoliu, dragging him out of the queue with his left hand.
Qi Laoliu had been hung on a wooden stake for a day and a night, and was already dying. At this time, he was dragged away by Wang Huzi, and he couldn't even cry out.
Wang Huzi dragged him to the mountain pass, pulled out a big knife from his back, and shouted: "Heaven and earth bear witness, Qi Laoliu killed my son and brother, today I will cut him in two, and the hatred will be eliminated from now on."
After speaking, he swung his sword and Qi Laoliu's huge head flew up.
Wang Beard was acting in accordance with the rules of the bandit world, which meant that every wrongdoer had his own debtor, and today he would only kill the real culprit, without harming his family. Hatred will not be passed down from generation to generation.
This is why righteous gangsters like Wang Huzi abide by this rule, but more underworld tycoons want to eradicate the roots and leave no chickens or dogs behind.
The executions of other bandits were handed over to the security company. Zhou Wen stipulated that only bayonets could be used, no matter stabbing or wiping, they could only be shot once, and blood could not be stained on the body.
Anyone who makes a mistake will eat and sleep next to the corpse tonight. Zhou Wen took the lead personally, and Miaohua and Zhang Xiaoping also participated.
