Chapter 75 Congratulations to the Groom (14)

After a while, seeing more and more wounds on Yang Sizhao's body, the hesitation in the dog's eyes became more and more serious. It seemed that he was a little distressed whether he should help him, until Yang Sizhao was exhausted, and finally a wolf saw the opening and bit him. to his throat.Yang Sizhao couldn't defend himself in time, he roared in grief and indignation, as if he also knew that he was in danger.

At this moment, the dog standing by the side suddenly rushed up frantically, knocked the wolf that was pounced on Yang Sizhao into the air, and then fell to the ground, protecting Yang Sizhao behind him.The fight just now was extremely thrilling, and I was almost out of breath. I was about to rush up to save Yang Sizhao with my bare hands, when I saw this scene in front of me.

The dog probably also went through a violent inner conflict, but finally jumped out to protect its owner.When I saw this situation, I couldn't help but feel hot in my eyes. This dog was specially raised by Yang Sizhao and the others to deal with Hu Xiaoshan. They usually deliberately stimulated its wildness, so naturally they would not treat it kindly, but at the last moment, the nature of the guardian Still defeated the wildness in it.

Yang Sizhao was rescued by the dog, gasping for breath, but couldn't stand up, and fell on the rattan bed.When the two wolves saw this, one came to attract the dog's attention, but the other bypassed the dog and attacked Yang Sizhao again.Yang Sizhao was already a little out of strength at the moment, and his response began to be slow.The wolf was about to come up to bite him, but at this moment the dog left the wolf in front of it, jumped up to Yang Sizhao, and started to bite the wolf frantically.

It seemed to have lost its mind, and it became more ferocious than before. It tried its best to get injured, and suppressed the wolf tightly. At this time, another wolf also joined the battle.Seeing this, Yang Sizhao forced himself to stand up, guarding each other with the dog.A single wolf was no match for a strong man. At this time, Yang Sizhao cooperated with the dog, and it didn't take long to severely injure the two wolves.

It's just that these two wolves are also very stubborn. Although they started to lose the wind, they still refused to retreat.I witnessed this scene from beginning to end, and I was really shocked. No matter whether it was a dog or a wolf, I felt a little admiration. Although the "bitch" was fabricated out of thin air, in my opinion, Yang Sizhao's dog is not weaker than the "bitch" at all.But Yang Sizhao let it go in one thought, and finally saved his life.

The battle continued, and with the cooperation of man and dog, the two wolves were quickly defeated.One of them was stabbed in the head by Yang Sizhao and was dying, while the other bit the dog's throat and refused to let go.Yang Sizhao rushed up to beat the wolf to death, and hugged the bloody dog ​​in his arms, with an expression on his face that he wanted to cry but couldn't.

The dog whined in his arms, its throat was torn open by the wolf, and it was undoubtedly dead.Seeing the situation on the rattan bed, the patriarch sighed a little, climbed up and patted Yang Sizhao on the shoulder, helped him remove the corpses of the dog and wolf, and then called Yang Sizhao to come and remove the rattan bed together.

Yang Sizhao didn't hear about it, he just hugged the dog and walked away. After finding a place, he began to dig a hole with a mountain cut, then buried the dog in it and covered it with soil, just knelt down at the dog's grave Before him, his expression was dull, and he didn't know what he was thinking.Although this dog was used to deal with Hu Xiaoshan, he has always been raising it. People and dogs depend on each other for life. Now that the dog died in front of his eyes in order to save his life, it is conceivable that he will not feel well.

The patriarch wanted to call him, but I stopped him and helped him remove the rattan bed, then gathered the rattan and wooden stakes, took out the flint and fire sickle on his body, and burned it with a fire.

When we left the mountain, Yang Sizhao was silent all the way, he didn't know about the reconciliation between me and the patriarch, and he didn't ask any questions when he saw me coming out of the mountain with them, as if he wasn't interested in anything.I looked at his silent back and thought to myself, wondering if this mountain man was as sad as he is now when the hostess left.

We went all the way back to the village, and Yang Sizhao went back to his home without saying a word, not even talking to the patriarch.Seeing this, the patriarch sighed and didn't blame him for being impolite, but asked me what I was going to do next.

After what happened in the mountains, I was a little embarrassed to stay in Xiaoyang Village. It was getting dark at this time, and it was not easy to go out of the mountains or go to Hushan to deliver letters, so I had the audacity to chat with the patriarch for another night, but I didn’t sleep well at night. I was always a little afraid that the patriarch would not trust me and would come in in the middle of the night and attack me.

Fortunately he didn't.When I woke up the next day, I pulled myself together and set off to Hushan to deliver the letter. The patriarch didn't keep me, but invited me to have breakfast and said goodbye when I came back.I agreed to him, and walked out of Xiaoyang Village with my burden on my back.

After leaving the village, I went all the way to Hushan, and at an intersection, I met a woman, about forty years old, who saw me coming from the direction of Xiaoyang Village, and stopped to look at me, smiling. He said: "This young man looks at the face, he shouldn't be from Xiaoyang Village, right?"

I saw that she was also carrying a small burden, probably a woman from Xiaoyang Village who was visiting her relatives. She was going back to the village, so I stopped and nodded to her, and replied: "City patrolling horse. Pass by the village." , to send the letter elsewhere."

The woman nodded with a smile and walked past me.I didn't take it too seriously, and continued on my way when I saw her pass by. When I arrived at Hushan, everyone in the village was preparing for Huxiaoshan's funeral.The bandits guarding the gate already knew me, and when they heard that I asked to see the Second Master, they led me to the hall.

I stood in the hall, looking at the statue of the mountain god riding a dog behind the tiger leather chair, with many thoughts in my heart.I came all the way in pursuit of Gu Yin's whereabouts, but I was involved in such a situation. Hu Xiaotian is dead, and even Hu Xiaoshan is gone. This letter from Qin Jian probably won't be of much use. So sending it here is just fulfilling my duty.

This letter, which should have been delivered long ago, was delayed for so long by my mistake.I sighed slightly, took the badge on my neck out of my collar, and held it in my hand.The brand is cold in my hands, and it seems to have been passed to my heart through my hands. Hu Xiaotian is dead, where should I go to find Gu Yin's whereabouts? Is the truth of the tragedy of the Wei family going to be wiped out?

Just thinking about it was hurting, when someone behind him suddenly said: "By the way, who sent the letter, I forgot to ask you for the letter when Sir came to the village last time."

I turned around and saw that the Erdangjia was behind me at some point.I was about to put the sign back into my collar, when the Erdang saw the sign in my hand, and for some reason, his face changed drastically, he stepped forward and grabbed the sign, and shouted sharply: "How can this sign be in my hand?" on you?"

He pulled my neck until it hurt. Before I could answer, he looked me up and down again, let go of his hand, and suddenly realized: "Are you the child that grew out of the tree?"

I was taken aback, and then overjoyed. He knew that I "grow" from a tree. Does this mean that he also knew where Guyin was going?

Seeing that I didn't speak, Erdangjia nodded again, thoughtfully: "So you came from Qin Jian."

I was even more happy when I heard that, he knew exactly where I came from, probably Gu Yin or Hu Xiaotian had told him that such a person would come to Hushan.

"Where's the letter?" He stretched out his hand towards me, and I hurriedly took the letter out of the bag and handed it to him.He took it and opened it in front of my face.I didn't stop it when I saw it, since Hu's father and son are gone, who else can read this letter except him.

Erdangjia read the letter in a hurry, then made a gesture to me, motioned me to sit on the chair, sat next to me, and asked me as soon as he sat down, "Do you think this letter is for the big boss? "

I was taken aback again: "Isn't it?"

"Did Qin Jian tell you that the letter was for Hu Xiaotian? I am Hu Xiaotian."

"You are Hu Xiaotian?" I choked for a moment, thinking that you are going to be Hu Xiaoshan's father, has he agreed to this matter, and I am not afraid of him jumping up to protest?
"It's not Hu Xiaotian, it's Hu Xiaotian." The second leader said, "You nonsense Hu, don't be so small, you are number one in the world."

It turned out that his name was Hu Xiaotian, which had exactly the same homonym as Hu Xiaotian, and it was unknown who copied who.I was stunned for a while, and was about to smile wryly, but suddenly a flash of inspiration yelled out: "It turns out that Gu Yin came to Hushan again, not to look for Hu Xiaotian, but to look for you!"

"That's right, my brain is turning very fast." Hu Xiaotian looked at me appreciatively, "Guyin left Guhuai to come to Hushan to look for me after receiving my letter back then."

"Then why did you ask him to come to Hushan? Is it because you have clues about the tragedy of the Wei family? You... have found the truth?" My heart trembled, I couldn't help feeling a little nervous, and my throat started to dry out.

Hu Xiaotian was silent for a while, as if he didn't know where to start. Seeing this, I became more nervous, took a deep breath, and said, "It's okay, just talk about it, I can bear it."

"Ah?" Hu Xiaotian was stunned, "I don't spray knives in my mouth, why can't you stand it?"

"I think you hesitate to speak, isn't it because there was something wrong with the Wei family's affairs back then?"

"Oh, there's nothing wrong, but I don't know where to start." Hu Xiaotian said, and glanced at me strangely.I was a little ashamed by him, and said hurriedly: "Then let's start from the beginning."

Hu Xiaotian nodded, and asked me: "What's the matter with Qin Jian's wooden head now? He won't still lock up those people brought by Gu Yin, right? I told him to release them quickly and come back to be his good bandit. It's a pity. This man's head was pecked by a woodpecker, and he doesn't listen to good things."

"Qin Jian is dead." I told him, telling him everything that happened in Guhuai Prison, "Before he died, he asked me to ask Gu Yin if he had his own beliefs."

Hu Xiaotian was obviously taken aback when he heard this, and after a while he murmured: "This stupid head is still thinking about this!"

"What is he thinking about?" I heard the meaning in Hu Xiaotian's words, and it seemed that there was something else about Qin Jian.

"What else is there, isn't it just the matter between men and women?" Hu Xiaotian sighed a little, "He used to like a girl who owned a winery at home, but they looked down on him, saying that he was a bandit with no ambitions. He doesn't have any beliefs, and he wants to eat swan meat. Now, he asked me to tell the girl in this letter that he has been working hard to become a person with beliefs for the past ten years."

Hu Xiaotian raised the letter paper in his hand to me, and I suddenly realized it, no wonder Qin Jian was still talking about it before he died, because the person I liked was obsessed with pursuing the so-called "faith". It is indeed stubborn, even unwise.But of all the emotions that can move, which one is wise?
It is just because you know it is unwise but still do it, it is moving.As I thought about it, I remembered Qin Jian's face before he died, and I couldn't help but change my opinion of him.

"Are there a lot of wineries around here?" I asked Hu Xiaotian, "Yang Siyuan's daughter-in-law owns a winery at home, how come the girl Qin Jian likes also owns a winery at home?"

Hu Xiaotian didn't answer me, but asked instead: "Do you know why Qin Jian followed Gu Yin back then?"

Although I have roughly guessed it, I don't know the specific ins and outs. Hu Xiaotian told me that when Guyin went to Hushan, he wanted to persuade Hu Xiaotian to accept the reorganization of the Nationalist Government and join the Northern Expeditionary Army, but Hu Xiaotian He refused.At that time, Qin Jian was still the second in charge of Hushan. He liked the girl who owned a winery in her family, but they despised him as a person without faith and didn't look at him directly.

Just when Qin Jian lost all thoughts and felt that he was abandoned by love, at this moment, an ancient voice suddenly fell from the sky, with a face that worried about the country and the people, Qin Jian felt as if he had found a treasure, and pestered Gu Yin to ask him what his beliefs were. .

Gu Yin was also very surprised. Suddenly someone in the bandit's den wanted to discuss with him what belief is, and he thought he had taken the wrong medicine. Love, but it can give him faith, so I tried my best to instill in him the righteousness of the family and the country.
