Tang Shi returned to a hill he had just passed through, followed a path stepped by a woodcutter, and walked up nimbly. No one could see that a big fat man had such agility.
He fiddled with the piles of bushes, followed the smell of blood and walked over. He was careful not to make a sound, and peeked through the gaps in the bushes.
I saw in a hollow, two men in the same clothes were searching the dead man on the ground. There were other people in the same clothes as the two men lying around the dead man, and they were also dead.
"Found it!" Someone whispered, and he took out what he touched and put it in the palm of his hand.
Tang Shi could see it very clearly. It was a red jade. Although the pattern on it was simple and simple, it was very valuable at first sight. The reason why Tang Shi came back was for this jade. But he didn't come to take a look at it because the jade was priceless. What he was interested in was what was hidden in the jade.
"It's worthy of being cultivated by the Qin family, but it has cost us so many people."
"After collecting the jade, we have to rush back and present it to the master."
One of them put Jade in his arms and muttered, "This place is really a barren mountain, and I don't know what he's doing here? We haven't been chased by our people yet."
"It's not a barren mountain, and I didn't see some villages and towns over there? Okay, go back quickly, I always feel that something is wrong."
"What's wrong? You're just scaring yourself. He's already dead. What are you afraid of?"
"I'm not afraid..." The man suddenly widened his eyes and said in horror, "What is that?"
As soon as he asked, he found that his companion could no longer respond to him, because the other's head had been pierced through by a slender branch, and he fell dead to the ground.
This scene is really weird. He rushed forward at the fastest speed in horror, but suddenly found that he could no longer run. He watched helplessly as his heart was pierced by a branch. A second before he lost consciousness, he only saw a fat boy appearing in front of him.
After Tang Shi manipulated his friends to kill two people, he didn't feel anything wrong. Killing people was a normal thing for him, not to mention, it's not a good thing for these two people to kill people for money. Let them go down to accompany their fallen brothers.
He stepped forward, ripped off the man's clothes, and took out the bloody ruby. The red jade is also engraved with the word "Qin". Tang Shi put the Hongyu away and began to search them again, but after searching all over, he couldn't find a single copper plate! Don't these people need to eat and drink? How did you get here
Tang Shi had no choice but to dispel the idea of robbing the rich and helping the poor, and walked back with the red jade in his hand.
Zhao family.
Because of their previous family training, the Zhao brothers and sisters always got up early for morning exercises. Their morning exercises were to practice martial arts in the yard.
"Brother, I'm going to cook." Zhao Xu finished his practice and walked towards the stove.
Zhao Jin was calm on the surface, but he was still a little sad in his heart. His little sister was good everywhere, but she couldn't cook. What she did was not to say that she couldn't eat it, but that it was too hard to swallow. Although he doesn't have a heavy appetite, he can't say that he doesn't refuse.
However, he has never shown it, and it is not easy for his sister. In the past, he used to wear fine clothes and jade food, and there were a lot of servants. Where did he do such rough work? But since she was in trouble, she never complained, and kept forcing herself to try jobs that she had never tried before. In his eyes, she had done well enough, what more could he ask for
"By the way, remember to make more." Zhao Jin remembered what the little fat man said yesterday.
"He sleeps until three poles in the sun every day, can he eat?" Zhao Xu replied in the kitchen.
"When I got up, I heard them say they were going to the back mountain to get fit, and they came back just now." It's just that Tang Shi didn't come back, which was a little strange.
"Bang bang bang!" After a while, the courtyard door was beaten from outside, and Zhao Jin heard the footsteps and knew it was Tang Shi.
When he opened the door, the first thing he saw was a fat face that was red with exercise. That face saw him with a bright smile that looked extremely harmless.
"Zhao Jin, you really are a promise-keeper!" Tang Shi jumped into the door and whispered, "I saw that Tang Anniu was rescued from the cesspool by his mother on the way back, and I cried so hard! Tell me, did you do it secretly?"
Zhao Jin sighed, "Since he's already so miserable, I'll let him go." Besides, would he use such a disgusting method
"Don't!" Tang Shi sat down on the stone bench in the courtyard, "Since you didn't do it, it can only be considered unlucky for him, but it can't be offset against my account."
Zhao Jin sat down opposite him, reached out and poured him a glass of water, "Drink some water to moisten your throat."
Tang Shi just happened to be thirsty, so he picked up the cup and gulped down. He was bold and unrestrained, and it really didn't match his soft appearance.
"I'm hungry." He stared at Zhao Jin eagerly with his small eyes open, and the look of waiting to be fed really made people wonder whether to laugh or cry.
"My sister is doing it, you wait." Zhao Jin smiled gently and persuaded softly.
Tang Shi knew that Zhao Jin was very handsome, and he coveted his beauty, but in the case of hunger, even if Zhao Jin smiled enchantingly at him, he still put food first!
"Then I'll take a look!" He got up from the stone bench and ran to the stove. The speed was so fast that Zhao Jin didn't say anything he blocked, so he had to follow him.
Tang Shi suddenly came to the kitchen, but Zhao Xu was startled, and his eyebrows stood upright at Tang Shi: "Tang Shi! Are you looking for a beating again?"
Tang Shi ignored her angry words and only asked, "Is it done?"
Zhao Xu rolled his eyes at him and said angrily, "Not yet!"
Tang Shi moved his nose and stretched his head to look at the contents of the pot. This sight shocked him, "What are you doing?"
"I originally wanted to make gnocchi, but I don't know what happened, they all spread out when they got into the water, and it became like this."
Tang Shi looked suspicious, "Don't you guys deliberately play me like this because I'm coming?"
Zhao Xun blushed, "Believe it or not!"
Zhao Jin said very calmly behind him: "This is what we eat on weekdays."
Tang Shi looked at the yellowed vegetable leaves floating in the pot, and kept comforting himself in his heart: In the last days, there is no food to eat, which is much worse than this treatment.
"Is there any steamed buns?" he asked again without giving up.
Zhao Xu shook his head, she really couldn't make such a difficult thing as a bun.
Tang Shi was helpless, so he had to eat with the two of them. He ate a big bowl of "gnocchi", just like drinking a big bowl of noodle water, and still felt empty in his stomach.
"Are you sure you can eat enough?" Tang Shi felt incredible.
Zhao Xu took a sip of the noodles and said, "Actually, I actually baked a cake..."
"real?"
Zhao Xu looked at Tang Shi's glowing eyes, and couldn't help but move slightly: "Then I'll get it."
Soon, the biscuits were brought over. Tang Shi looked at the few dark noodle pieces on the plate and couldn't believe it: "This is a pancake?" Are you really kidding me
Zhao Xu's self-esteem was hit hard at this moment. She picked up the plate and entered the stove angrily, whether she liked it or not! Except for her brother, no one has ever eaten the meal she made! Tang Shi really made a lot of money!
Tang Shi sat for a long time, but still made a decision: "Zhao Jin, I think it's okay to eat, but Tang Anniu can't be spared."
Zhao Jin had already expected Tang Shi to make this decision, so he no longer held back, "Okay."
Tang Shi went back to the old Tang family while lamenting the miserable life of the Zhao brothers and sisters.
Not long after Tang Shi left, the Zhao family's courtyard door rang again. This time, the knock on the door was more elegant and regular.
Zhao Jin raised his eyebrows and went to open the door.
"Zhao Dalang, I borrowed some firewood from your house a few days ago. I went to the back mountain to cut some this morning, and I sent it to you." , He smiled and said to Zhao Jin at this time, looking silly.
"Brother Da Zhong, come in quickly." Zhao Jin turned around and let Hong Zhong, who was carrying a large pile of firewood, enter the room.
Hong Zhong piled firewood in the stove and said with a sigh, "Now the back mountain is uneasy."
Zhao Jin didn't speak.
Hong Zhong piled up the firewood and turned around, "I just went to the back mountain to cut firewood, and I saw dead people. There are so many, it's really strange."
Zhao Jin had a serious face and said solemnly, "There are no ears on the wall, what happened?"
Hong Zhong looked at him, suddenly choked up, and fell to his knees, "Master, Jade is gone, and Twelve died."
Zhao Jin's hand in his sleeve suddenly clenched, "They still took it away in the end."
Hong Zhong shook his head, "It shouldn't be."
Zhao Jin helped him up, "What did you find?"
Hong Zhong carefully told Zhao Jin what he saw, and finally concluded: "Everyone is dead, but Yu is nowhere to be seen."
Zhao Jin's eyes were cold, "I want to go see it myself."
When Tang Shi returned home, he found that his mother was really predictable. Knowing that he couldn't get enough to eat at Zhao's house, he kept a few pickled vegetables and steamed buns for himself.
Tang Shi walked behind Li Shao, who began to write silently on the ground, and said vaguely, "Do you want to go home?"
Li Shao's writing hand paused for a while and said nothing.
At this time, several men with swords broke into the courtyard, and the words "arrest" were written on the clothes on their chests.
"Who is Tang Shi?" a bearded lead police officer asked loudly.
