Under the sky

Chapter 157
The wind was blowing fiercely outside the window. When I opened the window, I could only see a vast expanse of white. The blizzard was coming with the strong wind, making it difficult to open my eyes. Xie Gubai hurriedly closed the window.

The snowflakes drifted to the solemn Buddha statue in the hall, melted on the Buddha's lap, and disappeared in an instant.

Water was boiling on the fire, and it was boiling, with big bubbles popping out. "If the water is too boiling, the tea leaves will be scalded." Xie Gubai reminded.

"Don't be so formal, just feel free." The man in front of the stove asked, "Aren't you cold?"

Xie Gubai did feel cold, and the thick fur couldn't drive away the chill.He sat in front of the stove and warmed his hands, but they could not be warmed.

Wen Ruoshan was about to get water when Xie Gubai reached out and took the spoon: "I'll do it."

He poured the tea leaves into the cup, scooped out the water but did not pour it in. He waited until the water in the spoon was calm, then raised the spoon, letting the water slide through the cool air and tilt it into the cup.

The heat is still steaming on the teacup, one cup, two cups.He picked up a cup and handed it to Wen Ruoshan. He held the remaining cup to warm his hands, but his fingertips still felt cold.

Can't seem to get warm.

"Is anyone following you up the mountain?" Xie Gubai asked.

"Isn't he dead? The body is at the foot of the mountain." Wen Ruoshan asked, "I cut the vines and made him fall off the cliff. How could Mr. Xie forget?"

Yes, such a thing happened, Xie Gubai remembered.He couldn't restrain his whole body from trembling. How could he be so cold?
"Mr. Shen is really the person we are looking for." Wen Ruoshan took a sip, "I told you he was a good person."

"He is too kind." Xie Gubai said, "You can't achieve great things if you are soft-hearted and soft-hearted."

"Then why don't you assist Stinlang or Xu Fangge? There are people you want in Huashan. Otherwise, Tang Jueyan is a good match for you." Wen Ruoshan drank the tea, scooped water for himself, and poured it into the cup. Pour another glass for Xie Gubai.

The teacup in his hand had been empty for some time, and Xie Gubai watched Wen Ruoshan fill it up.He tried to take a sip, but it was still cold. He turned around and saw that the door of the house was not closed, and the wind and snow were drifting in from outside.He wanted to get up and close the door, but Wen Ruoshan said: "The assassin is still guarding outside. He is afraid of being discovered by us, so he will close the door for us."

When Xie Gubai looked again, he saw that someone had closed the door, and he saw that the person was holding an ax in his hand.

He felt a little at ease, but felt confused.

"If you want someone to kill dad, can he really do it? Why don't you run away quickly?"

"I didn't say that." Xie Gubai said, "I'm not so unreasonable either."

"I can see through you." Wen Ruoshan said with a smile, "You both love and hate me, and you are just a complainer."

Xie Gubai was stunned, was he a complainer?He felt cold.

Why is it still so cold when the door is closed?Xie Gubai shivered.

"You still don't understand people's hearts well enough, and you didn't think clearly, so you ended up like this." Wen Ruoshan said, "Have you figured it out?"

Xie Gubai pondered, he felt strange.What's so strange about this?
"It's time for me to go." Wen Ruoshan stood up.

"Where are you going?" Xie Gubai asked.

"Kill that assassin." Wen Ruoshan said with a smile, "Have you forgotten? He is still waiting for us outside the door."

He picked up the ax that he didn't know where he had come from and walked towards the door.

Xie Gubai suddenly remembered and reached out to hold Wen Ruoshan's sleeve: "Ruoshan..."

Wen Ruoshan looked back at him with confusion on his face: "What's wrong?"

Xie Gubai said: "You are already dead."

Wen Ruoshan looked at him with a smile.

With a loud "bang", the door of the Buddhist hall was knocked open by someone unknown, and the violent wind and snow flooded in, suddenly covering three inches of the ground. Xie Gubai seemed to be in an iceberg and snow country, until he was surrounded by paleness, as if he was the only one left in the world. .Looking back, I saw Wen Ruoshan standing on the edge of the cliff, holding the ax high and swinging it down.

The ax seemed to hit Xie Gubai. He felt severe pain in his chest, his breathing was suffocated, and he could hardly breathe.However, he felt warm at this moment, from his fingertips, palms to arms.

He opened his eyes suddenly and coughed violently. The intense pain made him almost faint again.He screamed in a low voice, and then heard anxious and joyful shouts beside him.

"Big brother!"

Xie Gubai's waist arched up in pain, and he gritted his teeth but couldn't help but scream and moan.

"Doctor Zhu! Big brother is awake!"

"Fuck! You finally fucking woke up!"

My mind is in chaos... What's going on?He screamed, it hurt too much, and there was severe pain in his waist and chest.

He smelled incense, a little sweet.The pain gradually eased, and his frantic mind gradually calmed down, but he still gritted his teeth in pain.

"Just a few more shots!" Zhu Menshang shouted, "Hold him down!"

In a daze, he felt the warm hand stove under the quilt, and the first thing he saw was Shen Yuqing pressing his hands and feet.

This was the first time he felt the power hidden under Shen Yuqing's gentle appearance. Those powerful hands pressed him so hard that he could not move. Of course, it might be because of pain and weakness that he had no strength to struggle.

The pain improved slightly, and Xie Gubai did not faint again.He tried to speak, but could only let out a low moan.

Zhu Menshang lit a bunch of unknown herbs and swirled them around the tip of his nose a few times. It was the sweet fragrance he had just smelled.He greedily inhaled the aroma, and the pain in his body was suppressed a little bit, but because he inhaled too fast, he coughed violently.

With this cough, the screams could no longer be suppressed.

After shouting a few times, he felt the tightness in his chest had eased, but he couldn't take a big breath. He could only breathe in slowly, slowly, with the discomfort of almost suffocating.

He wakes up, truly awake.Although my mind was still confused, I was finally awake.

"Don't talk, rest first, sleep as soon as you can." He heard Zhu Menshang whisper in his ear.Even if he didn't ask, Xie Gubai knew that he would be speechless.

He had questions to ask.Who is the assassin?What's the situation now?Have Huashan and Diancang taken any measures?And Shen Yongci...

He lay there for another three days, during which time he learned that he was being moved to the Palace of Eternal Life.This is the inner residence of the Shen family. For safety reasons, Shen Weichen made an exception to allow him to live there. Shen Weichen serves as the commander-in-chief of the Wei Shu, and she protects herself.

This is good. Shen Weichen is a trustworthy person and is Master Ya's daughter. This can appease Master Ya's dissatisfaction. Giving the power of Qingcheng's inner guard to his daughter can also reassure Mrs. Ya.

What about other things?Did the Night List succeed in assassinating the person who served as the messenger for Lao Yan in Kunlun Palace?

"Now...Dian Cang..." He wanted to ask, but Shen Yuqing only said: "Brother is just recovering from his injuries. I will handle the rest."

"Who sent the assassin...?" Xie Gubai asked again.

"Mr. Fu." Shen Yuqing was silent for a moment, "He committed suicide in prison."

"Damn it, why did you kill me too? Who did I offend?" Zhu Menshang complained, "I promised to save each of you, but now that you are gone, the next time you get a diagnosis, the fee will be doubled!"

He didn't ask again, he really didn't have the strength anymore.

After Shen Yuqing left, Zhu Menshang continued to diagnose and treat Xie Gubai.The two thin bamboo tubes between his chest and abdomen have been removed, and the wounds have been re-sutured.

"You have a good chance of saving your life." Zhu Menshang whispered, "I'm just afraid that the root cause of the disease..."

Xie Gubai felt that the air he could inhale was so thin that he could hardly breathe at any time. His chest felt tight and he coughed violently. His chest hurt as if it was about to burst.

Zhu Menshang hurriedly took incense and put it under his nose. Xie Gubai took two puffs before he could breathe again.

"It would be good if you can save your life." Zhu Menshang said, "There are also unlucky people who die just after being promoted."

"Remember Ye Jingde?"

Xie Gubai remembered that Ya Ye's right-hand man was the former patrol commander of Ruyi Gate. When Ya Ye rebelled, he surrendered to Shen Yu, tricked Shen Yu into opening the city gate, and was promoted to the general commander of Jixiang Gate because of his merit.

"He had a widow he was friends with in private. He went to their house in the middle of the night, caught wind of a horse, and died in disgrace. The widow was afraid of trouble and hanged herself. When the Ye family found the body, they were also afraid of being embarrassed, so they closed the case hastily."

Xie Gubai listened.While giving him acupuncture, Zhu Menshang talked about some miscellaneous things, saying that Shen Weichen had taken Xia Lijun as his personal guard, and that the woman was really evil-tempered and difficult to talk to.He also said that Shen Yayan was quite peaceful and lived in seclusion. Perhaps she was so idle that she concentrated on practicing martial arts.Mrs. Ya was particularly avoidant of Mrs. Chu. The younger sister said that she even deliberately avoided Mrs. Xu when she went to see her.

As he listened, Xie Gubai's eyelids gradually became heavy, and soon he woke up again in pain.There was no one around at this time. It was expected that Zhu Menshang had gone back to rest. There were only two guards at the door. The setting sun was shining outside the window and the floating clouds were floating.

"Is Mr. Xie okay?"

Mrs. Chu walked in, pulled up a chair and sat on the edge of the bed.Xie Gubai wanted to get up, but just thinking about it made him moan in pain whenever he moved.

"No need to say hello," Mrs. Chu said, "I heard from the boss that Mr. Xie finally woke up and came here to visit."

"Thanks to my husband's assistance in the past two years, the head of the house has handled political affairs in an orderly manner, and his knowledge and ability have improved a lot. This is all due to his guidance. This time, the Qingcheng family changes also depended on my husband's preparation. Although there were twists and turns, they finally did not happen. It will be a big disaster.”

Mrs. Chu adjusted the quilt for Xie Gubai. Xie Gubai saw that the dye on her fingertips was already bright and bright, and he didn't know how many times it had been dyed again and again this month.

"Two years ago, when my husband first arrived in Qingcheng, my husband was wary of him. Now that I think about it, it was because he ruined his plan and accidentally injured his best friend. Chu Jingtan feels deeply guilty."

She stood up, bowed and apologized to Xie Gubai.

Ruoshan... Xie Gubai thought... Ruoshan?
"I..." Xie Gubai groaned and finally spoke.

"Sir, there is no need to force your words." Mrs. Chu frowned and scratched her fingertips on the edge of the pillow.

"Mom, why are you here?"

Shen Yuqing walked in and was surprised that her mother would come to visit Xie Gubai in person.

"You came too early." Mrs. Chu smiled, "I thought you had business to attend to."

Shen Yuqing shook his head, obviously worried, and said: "There is a letter from the border..." He glanced at Xie Gubai, "Aunt Qing and uncle are taking their family back to Qingcheng, just in the next few days."

Mrs. Chu nodded and said, "I just came to see Mr. Xie's injury, nothing else."

Mrs. Chu was about to leave when Xie Gubai shouted: "Mrs. Chu..."

Although the voice was soft, Mrs. Chu heard it clearly. She turned around and asked, "What did Mr. Xie want to say?"

Shen Yuqing was also surprised to see that Xie Gubai had something to say to his mother.

"I came to Qingcheng..." Xie Gubai almost tried his best to make a sound.He was panting, and no matter how much he breathed, he couldn't get enough air. His voice was so low that he couldn't hear it clearly.

Mrs. Chu saw that he was so angry that he still wanted to say something, so she had no choice but to put her ear to his lips.

"It's for..." Xie Gubai said, "Let the second brother..."

"Become the common master of the world." After he finished speaking, he kept coughing again.These few words were exhausted. He raised his head and looked out the window and stopped talking.Mrs. Chu looked at him, lowered her eyebrows, and said after a while: "Sir, take care, Yu'er will still rely on you in many places in the future."

Shen Yuqing sent her mother out and curiously asked her mother what Xie Gubai said.

"He asked me to keep an eye on your father." Mrs. Chu replied, "There's already a fight over at Dian Cang. Let your fourth and fifth uncles be more careful. It's good for your second aunt to come back and have more helpers."

Shen Yuqing nodded and said, "I understand, kid."

■

Shen Qingge is the second sister of the Shen family. When she married into the Peng family, Shen Yuqing's brother and sister were not yet born. They only saw each other occasionally during family visits. Among her father's generation, she was the one who was least close to Shen Yuqing.Standing behind her was a man in his fifties, with a thick waist and broad shoulders, sparse eyebrows and thin eyes, and fleshy cheeks. Shen Yuqing recognized him as her uncle Peng Tiancong, but he had gained weight in middle age and was no longer as muscular as he once was.Standing behind are two men and two women. The older man is named Peng Nanying. The one holding a child about three years old is his wife Chen. The younger man is about [-] years old and is his cousin Peng Nanxiao. There is also a child. A young girl, about sixteen or seventeen years old, is her cousin Peng Luyan.

"What's going on?" Shen Qingge asked his nephew, "When I came back, your uncle was placed under house arrest, and even your father went crazy. What does this mean?"

"The family scandal is not to be publicized, it is to be hidden." Mrs. Chu answered for her son, "Yong Ci says every day that his son has usurped his throne and wants to harm your eldest brother. If you don't believe it, ask Master Ya."

Shen Qingge was dubious and said, "Even if your father is really crazy, does he need so many guards watching over him?"

"My father is good at martial arts and has a high status. He doesn't have many guards, so I'm afraid I won't be able to control him." When Shen Yuqing said these words, she felt that she was being hypocritical and unfilial.

"Why did the second aunt come back to Qingcheng?" Mrs. Chu asked, changing the subject.

"Fuck! Can people still live in Jiangxi?" Shen Qingge cursed, even using swear words.Peng Tian twitched his cheek and whispered: "Madam, speak more solemnly."

"Pretend to be your mother! Who did I learn this from? How can a daughter from a scholarly family in Qingcheng talk like this? I've heard you criticize my father and mother every day. I've learned this badly!" Shen Qingge scolded her husband.Peng Tian's face turned red and white, and he said seriously: "In front of outsiders..."

"Who is an outsider here? They are all members of our own family! If the co-author's surname is not Peng, then he is not one of our own family members? How do you, the Peng family, treat your own family members?"

"Little Beggar Peng is not from my family either..."

"Yes, you and Stinky Wolf are the real family!" Shen Qingge scolded.Peng Tian was about to defend himself a few words, but the more he argued, the more he was scolded. When he saw his wife's angry look, he suddenly became speechless and had no choice but to remain silent.

Peng Tiancong is a direct descendant of the Peng family. He has the same grandfather as Peng Qianqi. His father is the third brother of the former head of the Peng family. He was the head of the Five Tiger Sword Punishment Hall, so he was matched with Shen Qingge.Peng Qianqi succeeded him as the head of the Peng family, but he did not want to follow him and found another job in Jiangxi. Because his father had interceded for Peng Qianqi, the family was not welcomed by Peng Xiaobei, and there was no hope of promotion. He could only become a sub-ruler in Shangrao. Peng Tian Ever since I knew I was wronged, I could only sigh in silence.

He was able to marry Shen Qingge entirely because of his father's identity.Shen Qingge has a beautiful appearance and a dignified and elegant temperament. He was shocked when he first met him. When he saw his two brothers, Shen Yayan was handsome and handsome, and Shen Yongci was elegant and elegant.After they got married, he treated his wife like a god, holding her in his hands and arching her, even if he breathed on her, he was afraid of blowing her dirty.Shen Qingge is the eldest daughter, and Shen Yayan also likes to put on airs. Both brothers and sisters are bossy in Qingcheng. When they married into the Peng family, they originally wanted to temper their tempers, but Peng Tian's favor made her even more coquettish. horizontal.

Shen Yayan was good at swearing, which sounded familiar to Shen Qingge, but her upbringing was strict. If she said it in Qingcheng, she would be scolded by her father. She had no scruples after marrying Peng Tiancong, and Peng Tiancong was not a taboo person. Listen, listen. He went to school and scolded her even more fiercely than her husband.

This was not the first time Mrs. Chu saw her reprimanding her husband like this. She said slowly, "I haven't finished speaking yet. What happened in Jiangxi?"

"The stinky wolf has been in charge of Jiangxi for only one year, but it has made the people miserable. I thought that it would be better to run away to help commit evil. I discussed it with my husband for a few days and decided to join my parents' family." Shen Qingge said, "Let Yu'er arrange a job for him. , our family will take root in Qingcheng from now on."

Mrs. Chu nodded and said, "Yu'er also needs people, and you came at the right time."

"I want to see my third brother." Shen Qingge said, "What disease did he have?"

Shen Yuqing hesitated in her heart. If she asked her second aunt to see her father, she was afraid that his father would say something or make something weird happen. But if she refused, she would become suspicious. How long could she be on guard day and night?

This test has to be passed. If this test is not passed, the fourth uncle, the fifth uncle, and aunt Feng will also ask to see my father in the future. My father is in his prime, so he really wants to keep it a secret for decades?

Shen Yuqing immediately excused herself and said, "Before meeting dad, why not meet Master Ya first? Master Ya is always thinking about Second Aunt."

Ding Qi lay down next to the grass and held his breath.

It was cloudy tonight, the road was dark, and it was difficult to see clearly. The flickering firelight gradually approached from the distance. The man was walking on the mountain path with a big knife hanging on his waist.

I hope I have better luck, Ding Qi thought.

The man passed in front of him.Hell, the lasso didn't work very well, but luckily, he didn't seem to notice the trap, so it was the leader's turn to do the trick.

Two figures ran out of the grass and slashed at the man with their swords. They were the leader Wang Meng and his brother Fan Tianjiao.

"Fuck! Dog claws!" The man yelled, threw down the torch, and swung his knife to attack.It was too dark at night, and none of the three dared to attack. The leader was very experienced, and seemed to be intentionally or unintentionally engaging in a flanking attack with Tianfan Jiao to prevent him from escaping.

The man's kung fu was not bad, he could fight against two Wus one by one and never fall behind. After a few fighting moves, Wang Meng suddenly advanced and the man took a step back.

"Hit!" Ding Qi yanked the rope on his hand, and the other end was a noose, which was wrapped around the opponent's ankle, pulling him out of balance.

The rope could not trap the murderer. Taking advantage of this moment of opportunity, two brothers, Li Fu and Li Lai, jumped out and grabbed his waist with two semicircular forks, one in front and one back, preventing him from moving.

Finally, it was Zhao Xing's ultimate move. A large net fell from the sky, and the mesh was full of fine hooks.This hook net is not cheap. It is the most valuable tool for this group of people. Once used, the murderer will be easily captured.

The big net covered the murderer. The more he struggled, the deeper the thin hooks of the net dug into his flesh. The murderer rolled to the ground, screaming for mercy in agony.Wang Meng walked forward holding a torch, looked at the mesh, and stabbed the opponent's throat with a knife.

"I got 80 taels." Wang Meng said, "Drag us behind. Everyone is tired after a night, so let's rest first and go to the city tomorrow morning."

He put away the knife and dragged the body towards the hut.

A bald man walked up quickly holding a torch, it was Tietou Lin.Just listen to him shout loudly: "Boss, we hit again!"

Ding Qi just retracted the rope and looked at Tietou Lin.

■

Ding Qi hung the oil lamp on the wall. The light was weak and only illuminated about a foot in radius.Seven men sat on the ground in this square space, which was inevitably a bit crowded. Brothers Li Fu and Li Lai sat in the back row.

The prisoner's body was thrown behind the house. This dilapidated house was the prisoner's original hiding place. They found the prisoner three days ago and were well prepared before taking action.

Wang Meng, who is tall and thin, is the leader of this group of people.Most people in this business work in groups, and the number of people varies, mostly based on ability and expertise.Ding Qi and his companion Zhao Xing used to make a living with another group, but they had no choice but to pick melons and hit a mallet, breaking their foreheads. He and Zhao Xing had to find another companion and joined Wang Meng's group eight months ago.

"Did you really see it?" Wang Meng asked, "Which one is it?"

Tietou Lin took out a stack of old and new drawings from his arms, flipped through them one by one, and picked out one of them: "That's him."

"200 taels?" Ding Qi was surprised, "from Huashan?"

"Originally, Songshan also had a share." The bald man picked out another one, "It was also 200 taels, but it was withdrawn after the New Year."

Ding Qi swallowed his saliva.

"I know this man." Fan Tianjiao, who was standing behind him, said, "I went into the city this morning and heard that he committed a major crime in Guan County and also had sea arrest documents." He took out a blueprint from his arms and two Although the two drawings are slightly different, the general appearance is the same.

"How much?" Ding Qi hurriedly reached out and took it, his mouth wide open.

"Two hundred taels?" "What crime did he commit?" The two brothers Li Fu and Li Lai who squeezed in behind him spoke at the same time.

"He killed Tang You." Fan Tianjiao replied.

"That Tang You who was the manager of Ganzi?" Tietou Lin spat, "It's too late to die now. This man is carrying such a big case, no wonder he is valuable."

"Including the reward from Huashan, there are 400 taels of silver." Ding Qi said, "There is another advantage. We are now in Tangmen. We will send it to the sect and send a letter to Huashan. In the next month, we will have 400 taels of silver. We also saved the shed fee, and each person has more than fifty taels." Ding Qi was a little excited.

The business that Ding Qi works in is called Haiping Yamen, also known as "watermelon picking". It specializes in hunting down felons for whom nine families have offered rewards. After catching the suspects, he will send them to the local sect, and if they are verified to be correct, he can receive the reward.

They were a group of seven people who had captured two key criminals in the past six months and received a reward of 160 taels. The seven of them divided the amount between them, which was about [-] taels.

This is a knife-edge job. Last year, the Beggar Clan Huashan issued two wanted notices for each of them. It should be a vengeance warrant and a wanted order for buying Beggar Peng's head. This really alarmed all the brothers on the road.But there are not many people who want to do this job. Who dares to touch Jiangxi Yiba without risking his life?
Of course, there must be brave men under heavy rewards. With 2000 taels of bonus, there will always be those who are not afraid of death and will hit the knife edge.Those who dare to take on this job must be brave and capable. Ding Qi is eager to try, and wants to gather some accomplices and form a siege with dozens or hundreds of people.

The leader Wang Meng refused. He said: "Old Beggar Peng is a good man. Go and kill his son. Not only will you lose your reputation for this small amount of money, you don't know how many enemies you will make. Besides, if dozens or hundreds of people share 2000 taels, it won't be possible to get it." many."

Tietou Lin looked at Wang Meng and asked, "Boss, how are you doing?"

Wang Meng thought for a long time and said, "I don't want to do this job."

Ding Qi was surprised and asked, "Why not?"

"I recognize Du Jun from Huashan. Six years ago, my former brothers and I caught a lone thief in Huashan. He was worth 200 taels. He was a reward from Hengshan. He had to be sent to Hunan, so I borrowed a melon shed from Julingmen."

Criminals with bounties on them often move around. Due to the division of the nine families, if a prisoner is caught elsewhere, he must be sent back to the place where the reward is offered to collect the reward. To avoid fraud, the prisoner is usually captured alive, but there are also cases where the prisoner is captured alive or dead, as long as the body is required. The inspection is correct.

However, if a criminal is caught, it will be extremely inconvenient to escort him along the road. A cheap way is to "borrow a melon shed" from the local sect.Borrowing the Guapeng means burying the body or imprisoning the body, and notifying the wanted sect to come and check it. If the suspect is found to be correct, a reward will be issued. The Haizhu Yamen will split the account with the Guapeng, usually [-] or [-].This has many advantages. Some gangsters have accomplices. If the corpse is alive, the escort is afraid of being hijacked. It is also extremely difficult to transport the body thousands of miles. It is better to wait for the sect to come and check.

"That son of a bitch!" Wang Meng snorted, "He wanted to swallow the bonus and attacked us in the dark at night. Among the eight brothers, I was the only one to escape. I am called Unjust, and I can't even stay in Shaanxi. I just Make a living in Sichuan."

"After all, this man is my benefactor for avenging me." Wang Meng said, "This is the first thing, and there is a second thing."

Tinky listened carefully.

Wang Meng continued: "I have a friend who works as a guard in the Tang Sect and just came back from Kunlun Palace two months ago. This guy..." He poked at the drawing, "That's the name, I remember it. He saved Shaolin Juekong." The first one, the head of Hengshan and the head of Huashan, also said that the world is unfair and good people die in vain, and even issued vengeances against the nine families."

Surprised cries arose one after another. Fan Tianjiao was the first to ask everyone's question: "How did he escape?"

Wang Meng replied: "They said he jumped off the cliff and died. I didn't think he was still alive."

"So he is just a madman who goes around killing people?" Tietou Lin asked again.

"First kill the deputy head of Songshan, and then kill Tang You. They are both big shots. Even if he is a madman, he is still a capable madman. We can't deal with it."

"If the light is not good, there will always be the dark one." Ding Qi said, "We don't want to compete with him. Boss, you can't pick melons from anywhere, you can only follow the vines. After finally touching a big melon, let it go. Let someone else pick it."

"Crash the hammer carefully." Tietou Lin said.

"Haul" refers to the meteor mallet. The meteor mallet is a round iron ball, shaped like a watermelon, but it can be fatal if it hits it.What they pursue in this business are all extremely vicious fugitives. If they encounter a tough opponent, it is called a hammer. Ding Qi used to chase criminals, but when he encountered a tough opponent, almost all his brothers died.

Ding Qi said: "Even if it is a hammer, you have to hit it. This business is about seeking wealth and wealth at risk. How can a 400-tael watermelon be hit anywhere?"

"Where is he now?" Li Fu asked.

"I saw him on the wild forest road three miles away. I rushed back immediately to inform him." Tietou Lin said, "It should be nearby."

Li Lai said: "Boss, let's do it."

Before Wang Meng had time to reply, he suddenly made a gesture to signal everyone to be silent.Under the moonlight, a figure approached outside the door, just covering the door.

"I didn't expect there was anyone here." The man said.

It was the wanted criminal. I didn't expect him to arrive so quickly.
