A knife in love

Chapter 1657

Zhang Shi heard the hidden meaning of sarcasm in Shopkeeper Bai's words, and his heart was clear, knowing that this person thought he was deliberately flattering Li Qiufeng, so he made a mockery of himself.He thought to himself, what I said was really meant as a compliment, and Lao Bai, a bastard, couldn't get in the way, so he deliberately ridiculed me, trying to please His Excellency.It's just that this bastard didn't even think about it. Wouldn't it embarrass Mr. Li by messing with me like this?As the saying goes, thousands of clothes are worn for thousands of times, but flattery is not worn.As long as I embrace the big tree of Mr. Li, I don't have to be afraid of bastards like Xiao Dong and Lao Hu.

Thinking of this, Zhang Shi ignored Shopkeeper Bai and the others, and continued: "All the people stood on the bank to watch the excitement, but they didn't know that the big crocodile had been injured by Zhou Chu. They saw that one person and one crocodile sometimes floated and sometimes sank in the water. Thinking that the crocodile was chasing and killing Zhou Chu, they all raised their arms and shouted to encourage the crocodile. Later, the crocodile couldn't beat Zhou Chu, so it ran away with the current, and Zhou Chu followed closely, desperately trying to kill the crocodile.

"All the people standing on the shore saw the big crocodile floating up and down between the waves and drifting downstream. They thought it had eaten Zhou Chu and swam away contentedly. There were thunderous cheers. Many people Kneeling on the shore, thanking God for his mercy, let these three scourges of the village kill each other. Now that the second of the three scourges has gone, the remaining crocodiles are ferocious, but they can only live in the river and cannot easily harm people. It was the best ending. All the people celebrated with their foreheads and hands, and then left the river bank. After returning, they slaughtered pigs and sheep, set off fireworks and firecrackers, and celebrated that the three evils were gone. The four towns and eight towns were full of joy at once. The New Year is even more lively.

"Zhou Chu and the big crocodile drifted in the river for dozens of miles, and the big crocodile had no way of escape, so it had no choice but to fight with the beast. The beast went berserk and became more ferocious than usual. Zhou Chu, however, has a temper that gets stronger when he encounters a strong one. The crocodile went berserk, which made Zhou Chu even crazier than it. It not only punched and kicked, but also opened its mouth to bite. After three days and three nights of fighting with one crocodile, Zhou Chu was superior and finally beat the crocodile to death.

"However, after such a fierce battle, Zhou Chu was also exhausted. He tried his best to drag the corpse of the big crocodile to the bank. At this time, he was exhausted and weak, so he slept on the river bank overnight. Early the next morning, Zhou Chu He cheered up and left the big river with the dead crocodile on his shoulders. He wanted to go back to the village and boast to the neighbors and people about his contribution to killing the crocodile. But he had just returned to the village, and there were lights and festoons everywhere, and it was extremely lively. At the beginning, Zhou Chu thought that the villagers were celebrating his killing of the white-fronted tiger and the big crocodile, and he was extremely excited. But then he thought, when he killed the big crocodile, no one around saw it, why did the people celebrate first? ?

"Suspicious clouds arose in Zhou Chu's heart. He hid the body of the big crocodile and covered his face with a piece of cloth. Then he went to the street and carefully inquired about the news. He eavesdropped on the people on the street and found that The people didn't congratulate themselves for killing the white-fronted tiger and the big crocodile, but they thought that the big crocodile ate them and rejoiced. Moreover, all the people thought that Zhou Chu was dead, so they had no scruples in speaking, and scolded Zhou Chu for harming the village. It is more hateful than the white-fronted tiger and the big crocodile. Among the three evils, Zhou Chu is the worst!

"At this moment, Zhou Chu realized that he was one of the three evils, and that he was more serious than the white-fronted tiger and the big crocodile. After knowing this, Zhou Chu felt as if he was struck by lightning, and his heart was filled with anger and fear. According to his temperament, he wished he could kill all the people around him, so as to calm down his anger. But after thinking about it, he was considered a disaster by the people, if he killed people indiscriminately, he would be more guilty of harming the village. Frustrated and disappointed, Zhou Chu left his hometown and wandered around. Later, he met a sage and was enlightened by the sage. From then on, he changed his mind, studied angrily, and finally became a generation of famous generals."

When Zhang Shi said this, he paused for a while, and then said: "My lord Li showed his might today. He killed the big crocodile with a single blow and saved us from danger. He fought hard with the crocodile for three days and three nights than Zhou Chu. Sentence. What's more, Mr. Li was originally a chivalrous man. He was a hero when he was young, so he is not the same as Zhou Chu when he was a teenager. His official career will be smooth sailing in the future, and his achievements will definitely be far higher than Zhou Chu's!"

When Zhang Shi said this, he bowed to Li Qiufeng, and an article that praised Zhou Chu in the open and praised Li Qiufeng in the dark ended.Although Xiao Dong, shopkeeper Hu and the others knew that Zhang Shi was quick-witted, they didn't expect him to be so good at flattering. Perfect.This person is insidious and cunning, I'm afraid he is not under Cao Mengde.He saw that the boy surnamed Li was our big backer, so he boasted of him without any shame, and wanted to hug the boy surnamed Li's thigh tightly.It seems that Lao Zhang has other plans, so we have to be careful.

However, although Xiao Dong, Shopkeeper Hu and others scolded Zhang Shi for being shameless in their hearts, they all agreed with them, saying that since ancient times a hero was born in a young age, Li Qiufeng was a martial artist with high martial arts skills, a heroic hero, and his future achievements were beyond Zhou Chuu's comparison.

Shopkeeper Bai knew he had made a slip of the tongue at this time, although he was trying to ridicule Zhang Shi, but he was disrespectful to Li Qiufeng, and he regretted it in his heart.Therefore, he flattered Li Qiufeng a lot, and his words were like a tide, and high hats were sent to Li Qiufeng's head.Li Qiufeng knew what he was thinking, shook his head again and again, and said in his mouth: "Everyone speaks too seriously, and Li can't bear it. Li and everyone are friends in need, so there is no need to talk like this, lest everyone's face will be ugly."

Xiao Dong and the others laughed a few times, then stopped talking.Li Qiufeng went on to say: "Since there is nothing strange here, we have to find another way out. The old thief Liu Sheng saw us fleeing in a boat, but didn't pursue us with all his strength. He must have nothing to fear, and he has a poisonous plan to deal with us. We killed us just now. They set up a gang with Zong and escaped from the mouth of the crocodile, but they are not out of danger. How to proceed in the next step, we all need to have a good discussion."

After Li Qiufeng finished speaking, everyone fell silent.After a while, Qi Jiu said: "The old thief Liu Sheng used this place as a place to hide his ships. There must be a waterway leading to the dock. There are many large ships among the seventy or eighty boats, so they came here from the dock. The scale of the water channel is definitely not small. As long as we search carefully in the cave, we will be able to find the entrance and exit of the water channel."

Just as Qi Jiu finished speaking, shopkeeper Yin sneered, and said, "Your talk is like farting! Who doesn't know that there must be waterways coming in and out of this cave? But the cave has a radius of seven or eight miles. We have searched everywhere, and it will take ten days and a half months. But the Japanese pirates are watching, and we have no food, even if the Japanese pirates don’t come to attack, how many days can we survive without eating or drinking?”

Hearing his impolite words, Qi Jiu felt angry, glared at Shopkeeper Yin, and said, "You can't just sit here and wait to die? You say there is no food, at worst we kill the crocodiles in the water to satisfy our hunger. As long as we part ways Search, I don't believe I can't find the entrance and exit of the waterway!"
