I walked to this small yard at the end of the hill in a daze, and saw the iron fence gate at the door, only to realize that I was on the wrong path.
I haven’t been in Niutoushan for a long time, and I haven’t talked to Hu Zhanshan about joining in. After all, I’m an outsider. It’s not easy to walk around when I meet someone in a small courtyard with a locked door. Therefore, I held on to the root of the wall and wanted to find Road, go back to the yard where you live temporarily.
Just a few steps here, people came over there. Looking back, it was Hu Zhanshan.
Hu Zhanshan came alone, carrying a heavy baggage in his hand, and walked to the door of the small courtyard in one breath. Just as I wanted to say hello to Hu Zhanshan, I saw him put the baggage in his hand on the ground and take it. The key opens the door.
The burden fell, and the contents spilled out, and I saw a few silver pancakes rolled out of it.
These silver pancakes were obviously all given to Mu Jiu by me, and Mu Jiu lent them to Hu Zhanshan to help them survive the drought. Seeing this scene, I was a little surprised. I thought that Hu Zhanshan was righteous, so he ran to Mu Jiu to borrow money, just to take care of the dozens of people on this mountain.
But I didn't expect that Hu Zhanshan took the gold and silver himself, but slipped to the small courtyard. It seemed that he mostly wanted to hide these things.
My heart is a bit cold. If Hu Zhanshan still hides his own privates at this time, at the very least, he is not an anxious and righteous person. If such a person is brought in, it is of no use.
I didn't say anything, wanting to see what Hu Zhanshan was going to do. He took the key and opened the courtyard door, picked up the baggage from the ground, and looked at the weight of the baggage. Most of the gold and silver that Mu Jiu gave him was here.
Hu Zhanshan carried the baggage into the small yard. This yard was very small, with only one room inside. Hu Zhanshan came to the door and clicked, and the door cracked with a small opening about a foot in radius.
Immediately afterwards, Hu Zhanshan took out the silver pancakes in the bag one by one, and threw them in along the small opening.
Suddenly I felt confused again, what is this going to do
At this moment, a faint cry came out from the room. There was no light in the room, the black light was blind, and I couldn't see what was going on inside. However, what I can tell is that the cry came out after Hu Zhanshan threw the silver in.
At this moment, I felt very surprised. Is there anyone in this darkened room
But even if there are people in it, Hu Zhanshan should also come to deliver food, not silver. Although silver is good, it cannot be eaten.
There was only one call from the room, and I couldn't hear it. In a blink of an eye, Hu Zhanshan threw all the silver pancakes in his bag, and I could hear a banging sound, as if the silver pancake hit something.
After losing the money in his baggage, Hu Zhanshan closed the small door, stood under the eaves, sighed deeply, and then turned to leave. He walked all the way to the entrance of the small courtyard, locked the iron fence door again, and then left.
It wasn't until Hu Zhanshan walked far that I walked out of the shadows. The small courtyard seemed to be calm again, but the doubts in my heart grew bigger and bigger. What does Hu Zhanshan mean
I thought about it for a long time. Originally, Niutoushan’s matter had nothing to do with me. Hu Zhanshan’s money was borrowed from Mu Jiu, and he used it as he likes. However, I came to Niutoushan this time.
It's the fact that Lahu Zhanshan's group has joined the group, and there are some things that have to be figured out.
Thinking of this, I took the courage and looked outside the courtyard wall. The courtyard wall of the small courtyard is not high, so I can definitely turn it over.
I climbed onto the courtyard wall lightly, and then jumped into the courtyard. There was a big house in the courtyard, and there was nothing to look for. I walked to the place where Hu Zhanshan just stood, and I saw a small door one foot wide. The small door can be opened outside.
I tentatively opened the small door. There was no light in the room. There was only a ray of moonlight in the dark, but it was still muddled and could not be seen clearly.
Cang Dang! ! !
At this moment, there was a bang from the room, and it was only at this moment that I vaguely saw that there seemed to be a large iron cage in the room.
The iron cage was welded with iron bars as thick as the forearm, and a black cloth was covered on the cage. My heart suddenly touched my throat, and I didn't know what was in this iron cage.
But one thing, I can probably confirm that the sound I heard just now seemed to come from this iron cage.
If you think about it this way, there must be living things in this iron cage. However, I still don't understand, no matter what is in the iron cage, what does Hu Zhanshan mean by throwing the silver in
Wow...
Suddenly, there was another clanging sound from the room. Obviously something in the cage was hitting the iron cage. The sound was loud and powerful. At the same time, a tide of murderous aura, just followed The small doors in front of them swarmed out.
This murderous aura made me feel a little breathless, and even my chest was stuffy. I subconsciously shrank and closed the small door.
I retreated to the eaves, my heart was still beating violently, this incident cast a cloud over me, but I didn't know how to ask Hu Zhanshan directly.
After thinking about it, I decided to endure it. After Mu Jiu finished cooking at Shihewan, he would come to Niutoushan. I don’t have a deep friendship with Hu Zhanshan. If I really want to ask, I have to ask Mu Jiu.
Only by asking clearly can I decide what to do.
I quietly returned to my residence, but I felt like a pimple was twisted in my heart.
I slept right up to noon, and when I woke up, someone knocked on the door outside. When I opened the door, it was a guy on the hill who called me to eat.
I think the people in Niutoushan still have some respect for me at the very least. They came early in the morning. They just saw that I was still asleep, so I didn't disturb them. They didn't speak until I woke up. I rinsed in a hurry and followed my buddy to the front yard.
There were not many people in Niutou Mountain. When eating, everyone was in the same room. Now there are so many people all at once. There are several tables and chairs in the room, which makes it a bit crowded. I sat down and looked at the food on the table. It was a large plate of wowotou mixed with miscellaneous grains, and a pot of boiled radish and cabbage. There were a few oil flowers floating on the vegetable soup.
"Oh... the life of Shantou is not easy, everyone, I really can't handle this rough tea and rice, everyone should bear it." Hu Zhanshan laughed bitterly, picked up a wotou, and said, "Everyone, don't scold me. …"
"Hi, old Hu, say
What's the matter. "Someone said, "These years, the brothers have been run on and can't survive. Now that there is a place to live and have a meal, they are already satisfied, and they will have a long time to come." "
"Yeah, Brother Hu, it's all because of Qian Kun Dao's cutting off our way of life. Why would everyone scold you?"
"Brothers, just be considerate. Don't think it's me who pretends to be poor." Hu Zhanshan picked up his chopsticks and said, "Eat first."
Hearing what they said, my heart felt bright. Hu Zhanshan was indeed pretending to be poor. When I was just going up the mountain, Hu Zhanshan asked people to go down the mountain to buy some wine and meat. It's not that he has no money, it's just that all the money is thrown into that small backyard in the backyard.
I became more and more puzzled, not knowing what Hu Zhanshan's intentions were. But other people don't say anything, so naturally I don't say anything.
After this meal, Hu Zhanshan talked to me for a while, and he was also holding fire in his heart, wanting to fight the universe. Without failing to show my composure, I asked him a lot, mainly to ask how many reliable people there are on his side.
"You have seen it too. I have accepted dozens of brothers who can't get along with me. After careful calculations, there are still a hundred and ten people. They are all wandering around now. If you send someone to inform them, be sure to shout. Just come." Hu Zhanshan said: "These people have suffered from the world, but the dragons have no leader. If someone climbs up and gathers everyone together, they will definitely fight the world together."
I don’t doubt that. There must be people who are greedy for life and fear of death, but there are also strong men. Let alone people, rabbits are forced to bite people when they are pressed, let alone these knife heads licking blood. Sand bandits.
"This matter, when Brother Nine comes, let's discuss it carefully."
"Okay, wait for Mu Jiu to come, add up."
I didn't show my breath for the time being, just because of what I discovered, it always made me feel uneasy.
Just like that, another three or two days passed in a flash. After dinner that day, the people from the mountain ran to the back mountain, beat more than ten rabbits, and got one for Hu Zhanshan. The rabbits that have survived the winter have lost weight. Hu Zhanshan roasted the rabbits and made some wine, and he drew me to drink.
Anyway, I found out about it, but I haven’t said it. Hu Zhanshan didn’t know it, and treated me as a good friend. The two of them drank wine and ate rabbit meat together. They came and went. Two or three catties of white wine fell into the stomach. .
I was thinking, should I take this opportunity to ask Hu Zhanshan first. After so many days of contact, I still feel that Hu Zhanshan is not like the kind of villain with unpredictable intentions. But when the words came to my lips, I didn't know how to ask.
"Brother, what, what's the matter?" Hu Zhanshan looked at my face and asked: "What's the matter, let's be honest, we only met after being introduced by Brother Nine. Friends of Brother Nine, my surname Hu is absolutely trustworthy. "
"It's not a big deal..."
I just opened my mouth, and suddenly, I didn't know where there was a cry like a scream.
The scream seemed to be the voice of an old woman, and the voice was extremely vague, as if it had come to my ears from far, far away.
"Zhanshan... Hu Zhanshan... go home..."
I didn't have much reaction yet, Hu Zhanshan's eyes suddenly stopped, his body trembled slightly, and the wine glass in his hand fell to the ground.
