A burst of energy came from the door.
It's Brother Peng.
Old Liu Tou glanced at Brother Peng and said, "With the little money you have, it won't be enough even if you are sold together! Don't force yourself to stand out."
"Then I'll borrow it!"
"Haha, how much can you borrow? One hundred guan? One thousand guan? Ten thousand guan? Let me tell you! A small situation cannot be calculated with copper plates, not even silver! At least it must be gold! And it is an astronomical Numbers! You are just a small leader of Qian Mosi now, how capable can you be? Borrow? Even if you go smash and grab, you can’t get the money together! Stop dreaming!"
Old Liu Tou became more and more excited as he talked, and finally he jumped up and pointed at Brother Peng's nose.
Brother Peng fell into silence for a while.
Indeed, with his current ability, it is really impossible to raise this amount of money.
However, Bai Gu is in trouble and Bai Xiaoxiao is in trouble. He can't just stand by and watch!
Mrs. Bai’s kindness and instructions before her death are still vivid in my mind!
However, Old Liu Tou suddenly changed the topic and pointed to the wooden bed next to him, "Xiao Bai, take off your clothes and lie down here. I'll give you some medicine."
Hearing this, Bai Gu couldn't help but be stunned. He had never told anyone else about his injuries. How did Old Liu Tou know? Can you tell?
Brother Peng frowned, "Xiaobai, are you injured?!"
"It's a small injury, it's a small injury, it shouldn't be necessary." Bai Gu smiled a little awkwardly.
"Stop dilly-dallying, you bitch, hurry up!" Lao Liutou urged.
"Take it off!" Brother Peng was even more direct, with no room for negotiation in his tone.
Bai Gu had no choice but to slowly take off his clothes piece by piece under the menacing gazes of the two men, revealing the wounds on his body one by one.
The wounds were densely intertwined like a spider web, varying in size, especially the wound on the left hand that was as long as the arm.
"You call this a minor injury?!" Brother Peng's voice gradually became louder and he was already angry.
Bai Gu smiled awkwardly and quickly lay down on the wooden bed, not daring to look at Brother Peng again.
"Taking these alone, they are indeed minor injuries. They are just skin injuries. They heal quickly. The wound on his arm can be healed in about a month. It's simple." Old Liu Tou kept applying the medicine and mouthing. , "The trouble is that he still has internal injuries in his body, which is difficult to treat and cannot be cured by ordinary drugs."
"So serious?" Brother Peng was surprised.
Old Liu nodded, "Although it can't be seen from the outside, it has actually damaged the internal organs. Although the degree is not serious, as time goes by, the hidden dangers left behind will be great."
At this point, Old Liu Tou stopped abruptly and stopped talking.
Brother Peng thought for a while and then asked: "Where did the injuries on your body come from?"
Bai Gu briefly described the process of how he entered the cave and alarmed the giant snake, was chased by the giant snake, and finally was bombarded by thunder from the sky.
It's just that Bai Guyin has hidden the part where he was knocked unconscious by flying rocks. It's so embarrassing!
Brother Peng's face changed several times after hearing this, and finally he turned dark and said, "Xiao Bai, next time you go up the mountain, I will go with you."
"Humph, are you going to follow?" Old Liu Tou sneered, "Xiao Bai's ability to escape is entirely due to his speed. What about you? You can't run fast, and you can't be beaten. If you go, you will be holding Xiao Bai back!"
"I……"
"You know how much strength you can use now." Old Liu Tou finished applying the medicine and patted Bai Gu, "Okay."
Bai Gu got up angrily, a bit gloating about his misfortune.
It's not common for Brother Peng to be deflated. I saw him twice in a row today. The probability is as high as picking up a silver ingot on the road!
At this moment, there was a sound of scolding and wailing coming from the door. Then, Aguang, a dark and muscular man, walked in and said, "Brother Peng, we have brought people here, what should we do with them?"
"Xiao Bai, what do you mean?" Brother Peng asked Bai Gu this question.
Obviously, he wanted Bai Gu to deal with these people by himself. After all, the injured person was Bai Xiaoxiao, Bai Gu's sister, so it was only reasonable to let his brother handle it.
Moreover, if Brother Peng were to handle it himself, I'm afraid these people wouldn't even have to come here and would just solve it on the spot. Bai Xiaoxiao was seriously injured and still hasn't woken up, and Ah Yue was frozen to death. These people should pay with blood, no matter what.
Bai Gu sat on the wooden bed with a puzzled look on his face, "Who is it?"
"I broke into your house, stole things, and injured little people. Now I only caught some people, just at the door. Others ran away and are still looking for them."
When Bai Gu heard this, his originally calm emotions became visibly agitated, his body couldn't help but tremble, and his hands clenched into fists. However, he still suppressed his emotions and kept his tone less excited, but still gritted his teeth, "Let them kneel in front of A Yue's grave! Let them repent!"
A Guang looked at Brother Peng, who nodded slightly, then walked out of the house and shouted.
Then, a sound of footsteps sounded, getting farther and farther together with the wailing.
The room fell silent.
Old Liu Tou turned around to pack the medicine box. His movements were very light and made no sound at all.
Brother Peng stood there, looking at Bai Gu, waiting for his reaction.
Bai Gu, on the other hand, sat blankly on the wooden bed, motionless and not saying a word.
It's like a statue standing there.
After a long time, Brother Peng, who still had a straightforward personality, couldn't stand this weird silence, so he took the lead to break it: "Xiao Bai, I have already brought him over, what next? You should give me some accurate information."
Bai Gu remained motionless.
Brother Peng had no choice but to ask Old Liu, "Old Liu, you..."
Before he finished speaking, Lao Liutou raised his hand and interrupted him, "My opinion doesn't count. You still have to go to Xiaobai for this matter. He has to say it."
Brother Peng helplessly slapped his forehead, one of them passed the blame, and the other remained silent. The old man and the young man really...
"Let's go." Bai Leng's faint voice sounded, his face was expressionless, and he walked out immediately.
Old Liu Tou and Brother Peng both frowned. They had never seen Bai Gu like this before.
Old Liu Tou quickly grabbed Brother Peng, "Keep an eye on Xiaobai, lest he can't think too hard!"
"Okay, I know!" Brother Peng nodded and quickly chased after him.
Old Liu's brows were still furrowed, he looked at Bai Xiaoxiao on the bed, and then looked out the door, thoughtful and worried.
——————
Under the short mountain.
The biting north wind howled like the howl of the undead. Snowflakes as big as half a finger flew indiscriminately, covering everyone's face like a slap.
At the foot of the mountain, there are two tombs.
One big and one small.
In front of the two graves, five and a half-year-old boys were kneeling, shivering in the cold wind and heavy snow, with snot and tears on their faces. They were obviously very frightened.
Next to them, there were several strong men guarding and supervising them.
Aguang is among them.
Not far away, several middle-aged men and women gathered together, whispering and looking worried. But he was afraid of several strong men and did not dare to step forward.
There was a sound of slight footsteps, and two figures, one tall and one short, walked over.
It was Brother Peng and Bai Gu.
When several strong men saw Brother Peng, they immediately stood up straight and shouted: "Hello, Brother Peng!"
Brother Peng pressed his hand down, signaling everyone to relax.
When the middle-aged men and women saw Bai Gu, they immediately put their heads together. They didn't know what they were discussing, and they looked at Bai Gu from time to time.
Bai Gu had no expression on his face and walked towards the two graves in a daze.
He walked to the larger grave first and knelt down.
The inscription on the inscription is, "The tomb of the ancestor Bai Yi".
Bai Yi is the last name of Mrs. Bai.
Bai Gu first kowtowed three times.
"Grandma, I'm here to see you."
Kowtowed three more times.
"Grandma, I didn't protect Xiaoxiao well, and I didn't abide by the agreement between us."
He kowtowed three times again.
"Grandma, Ah Yue is dead and I failed to protect her. Am I useless?"
"Grandma, I miss you."
Bai Gu kowtowed three more times before standing up, "Grandma, I still have some things to deal with today, so I won't talk about it for now. Let's wait until next time. We can talk about it carefully next time."
Bai Gu walked to the small tomb next to it. The inscription on it was, "The tomb of my sister Zhang Baiyue."
Zhang is Ah Yue's surname, and Bai is Bai Gu's surname.
Bai Gu took her in and should change her surname to Bai. But Bai Gu didn't force it, and wanted to let Ah Yue choose on her own in the future.
But, I still haven’t waited until that time.
When Brother Peng built Ah Yue's grave, he was good at making decisions and named Ah Yue Zhang Baiyue.
Zhang is the surname, Bai means kindness, and Yue means sustenance.
The moon in the sky is white tonight, and all the flowers in the world are blooming.
Bai Gu raised his hand and gently rubbed the small wooden tablet, his eyes full of bitterness.
Ah Yue, it’s my fault that it’s my fault that I came late.
Bai Gu closed his eyes, listened to the howling of the cold wind, and felt the heavy snow hitting his face. His whole body was silent, as if he was one with nature.
This state did not last long, Bai Gu turned around and looked at the "culprit" kneeling in a row.
Everyone's face was full of fear, with snot, tears and snowflakes mixed together on their faces. Together with their thin and yellow cheeks, they looked like clay dolls.
But there was no sign of remorse or an attitude of admitting his mistake on his face.
This was entirely because the people of Qian Mosi captured them here, and they were afraid of Qian Mosi, so everyone in Qian Mosi burst into tears. As for breaking into Bai's house, smashing and looting, they did not realize that they had done anything wrong, nor did they feel any remorse.
Bai Gu recognized the identities of these five children.
The son of Mrs. Lin's family in Alley Head is fifteen years old this year.
The second son of Uncle Li's family in Dongxiang is eleven years old this year.
The eldest son of Aunt Wang’s family in Xixiang is ten years old this year.
The youngest son of Aunt Chen’s family in Beixiang is ten years old this year.
The youngest son of Uncle Ding's family at the end of the lane is eight years old this year.
They are both children about the same age as Bai Gu and Bai Xiaoxiao. How could they do such a thing?
Bai Gu sneered, "Do you know you were wrong?"
Several half-grown boys had never seen such a scene before, and they were all trembling with fear. Finally, the older son of Mrs. Lin spoke up: "We didn't do anything wrong. Why did you bring us here? Let us go back quickly!"
"I didn't do anything wrong..." Bai Gu repeated, suddenly laughed, and laughed out loud, "So you broke into my house and took away my quilts, cotton-padded clothes, and food! You injured Xiaoxiao, and she is still here today. I didn’t wake up! I caused Ah Yue to freeze to death and let her lie here at such a young age! You did nothing wrong in this? You don’t think it has anything to do with it, right?"
The more Bai Gu talked, the more excited he became, and even his eyes turned a little red.
At this time, several middle-aged men and women gathered not far away quickly ran over. They were the parents of the "culprits".
One of the middle-aged women said: "Xiao Bai, don't worry, we can sit down and talk. You, do you still remember who I am?"
"Aunt Wang from West Alley, remember."
"Hey, let me just say, I hugged you when you were a child, you should remember me..."
Bai Gu raised his hand and interrupted Aunt Wang: "I was five years old when I was picked up by my grandma. I can remember it at that time, but you have never hugged me. I remember you because you were seriously ill back then, and Wang Uncle wanted to save money and didn't want to hire a doctor for you, but he didn't want to give you food. It was my grandma who went to give you a bite to eat, otherwise you would have starved to death in the hospital bed."
"You..." After being exposed, Aunt Wang suddenly blushed and couldn't say a word.
One of the middle-aged men came out and protected Aunt Wang behind him, "Xiaobai, why are you talking to adults? You are rude!"
Are you actually starting to accuse me?
Bai Gu glanced coldly, "Who am I talking about? It turns out to be Uncle Li from Dongxiang. I remember you. If my grandma hadn't sewed the clothes for you back then, you probably wouldn't have survived the New Year's Eve when you were twenty, right?" "
"You——!" Uncle Li was also choked by Bai Gu's words.
The main thing is that what Bai Gu said is true, and they can't refute it.
They wanted to get close to each other when they first came up. Didn't they just want to build a relationship so that they could excuse their children? Bai Gu has seen it a lot over the years, and he is not a fool, so he can naturally see through it at a glance.
Since I never thought about admitting my mistake and admitting the facts from the beginning, there is nothing to talk about. No matter how much you say, it's just a waste of time. It's better to point it out directly.
I’m not familiar with these people anyway.
The so-called neighbors don't say hello much on weekdays. When they see someone else's family having a hot meal, they will be envious and jealous, hoping that the next moment the family will suffer so that they can go up and share something.
In Lingding Lane, there is no harmonious neighborly relationship. They all work on their own and scheming.
The parents of these families only got together because their children were arrested. Otherwise, they would be strangers or even enemies.
We are just neighbors, or neighbors who are strangers, so there is no need to be so polite.
Injuring Bai Xiaoxiao and killing A Yue, this matter should be paid for with blood! There is no room for negotiation!
Even blood relatives and family members are the same!
It's so disgusting to try to fool things by trying to get close!
That's why Bai Gu speaks so harshly now.
It's not his nature, but as a parent, you just want to make things more routine at first so that you can confuse things later.
Is there any way to solve things like this?
If they admit their mistake right from the start, there will be room for change.
It's nice of you to say that I'm rude even though it's almost impossible to do it.
I'm sorry, there's nothing we can do about it today.
Since you can't teach children well and don't know how to teach them, then I will teach these guys a lesson for you!
At this time, the older Ding Bo quickly came out to smooth things over, "Xiao Bai, let's do this. As for you, please calm down a little and don't be too impulsive. As for us, we don't actually know what happened. We each My child was suddenly caught here, and the parents must be anxious and uncomfortable. Please understand."
Ding Bo was originally from a wealthy family. He had studied for several years and had been involved in civil and official circles. But later on, his family fell into decline, and he ended up in this lonely alley.
In addition, he is slightly older, and his ability to be worldly and observant is much stronger than that of several other parents. He knew that he must not anger Bai Gu now. The latter now had Qian Mosi's support. If he accidentally angered him, those children would probably be doomed today.
So first of all, you have to be soft.
Use retreat to advance.
Bai Gu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Uncle Ding, I remember that you have also been favored by my grandma, right?"
Since Ding Bo's attitude was pretty good, Bai Gu wouldn't go too far.
I'm polite, but I have to be polite.
I'm not a dog on the roadside that wag its tail to everyone I see.
The accounts that need to be settled still have to be settled.
