Return to the small mountain village in 1993

Chapter 56: Got the shotgun
"Brother Tian, ​​don't mind. That guy from Sihai has loved reading Water Margin novels since he was a child, so he has always admired heroes very much."

Yang Hu said a good word for Yang Sihai, and then led Tian Hao home.

Although Yang Sihai left, he spread the word throughout the village that the hero who caught the robbers had gone to Yang Hu's house.

The news soon caused a sensation in the whole village.

One by one, the villagers immediately walked to Yang Hu's house.

As soon as Tian Hao arrived at Yang Hu's house, he saw Yang Juan supporting an old man standing by the door, waiting for him.

Yang Hu introduced: "That's my grandfather."

"Hello grandpa."

Tian Hao said hello quickly.

The old man smiled and nodded, "Please come in quickly, you are the benefactor of my family."

"Grandpa, I don't count as a benefactor. It's just a little effort." Tian Hao said, "I won't go in. I have to rush home. There are still dozens of miles of mountain road."

"I heard from Yang Juan that you have an unused shotgun at home. I would like to borrow it for use. Is that okay?"

Tian Hao was indeed in a hurry, so he spoke frankly.

He didn't have much hope in his heart. After all, it was the first time they met, and the shotgun was a very dangerous and valuable item. How could he borrow it easily?
"Grandpa, you and my dad don't hunt anymore. Keeping such a good shotgun at home is a complete waste. It's better to lend it to Brother Tian and let him hunt more prey. It doesn't mean burying such a good shotgun."

Yang Juan helped coquettishly and said, "Grandpa, do you think so?"

The old man glanced at his granddaughter with a smile, and said with a meaningful smile: "Of course you can borrow it, but after all, this shotgun is the most valuable item in our family, why should it be lent to a stranger?"

"He is not a stranger, he is my savior." Yang Juan said.

"Well, that's a reason, but it's not enough." The old man smiled and shook his head.

"Is that not enough?"

Yang Juan's eyes widened, "Grandpa, you often say that we should repay the kindness we receive from others with a spring of water. Now we have the ability to repay..."

"I said, just repaying kindness is not enough."

The old man still looked at Yang Juan with a smile.

Yang Juan was so anxious that she almost cried. She knew what her grandfather meant, but as a girl, how could she take the initiative to tell her about the person she was talking to? She had no choice but to look at Tian Hao.

Of course Tian Hao understood what Grandpa Yang was saying and said with a smile: "Grandpa, I'm married and my daughter is one year old."

Upon hearing this, Yang Juan's face turned pale instantly, and then tears seemed to well up in her eyes, and she immediately turned around and ran away.

Grandpa Yang and Yang Hu were stunned for a moment and didn't say much.

Tian Hao continued: "My name is Tian Hao, and I come from Tianba Village. Grandpa must have heard of our Tianba Village, which is considered the poorest village in He County. Therefore, I came to borrow a shotgun because I want to improve my family's life through hunting. .”

"Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't want to borrow them. I just went to the county to buy a slingshot and a crossbow today. I believe that with these tools, as long as I don't hunt large beasts and only hunt ordinary prey, there will be no problem."

"Tianba Village is indeed very poor..."

Grandpa Yang was talking when suddenly, a group of people gathered around him in the dark outside.

"Look, the man with the net around his head is the hero who caught the robber!"

It was Yang Sihai's voice.

"He is the hero who caught the robbers? It doesn't look like it!"

"So young?"

"What happened to his head? Was it opened by the robbers?" "Hey! Hero, tell us how you caught the robbers. Aren't you afraid? There were six of them, and I heard they also had knives. , how did you catch them?"

"Hero, have you practiced?"

"Hero, which village are you from?"

All the villagers gathered around Tian Hao, looking up and down, as if they were looking at something strange.

"What are you doing?"

Yang Hu stopped in front of Tian Hao and scolded the villagers.

"Yang Hu, are you planning to marry your sister to this hero? Your sister is the beauty of our village. A beauty and a hero are a good match, hahaha..."

Someone joked, causing a burst of laughter.

Yang Hu's face was livid, "Yang Sihai, if you keep talking nonsense, do you believe I will break your legs?"

"Huzi, it's just a joke, don't take it seriously. However, I really hope that this hero can become a relative of our Changjiaowan Village. By then, when we travel around the world, who will dare to provoke us?" Yang Sihai said loudly.

"Huan Jianghu, you must have read too many villain books!"

Yang Hu hummed, "Okay, everyone, let's go. There is no hero here. You have also seen that he is also seriously injured."

The crowd nodded.

Seeing Tian Hao's image at this moment, they were indeed a little disappointed. There was a huge gap between him and the hero in their minds.

Tian Hao is neither tall nor handsome, he is just an ordinary person, and judging from his thin body and ragged clothes, he probably doesn't even have enough to eat.

Everyone shook their heads and turned around to leave, but the topic of discussion was still about the six robbers.

Yang Sihai said angrily: "Hero, I finally called everyone here, you can show me two tricks, such as a monkey stealing a peach, a kite turning over, etc..."

"Gungun, what a mess! Go back and read your little book!"

Yang Hu drove him away again and again.

After everyone left, Grandpa Yang stared at Tian Hao and asked solemnly: "Did you really catch those six robbers they mentioned?"

Tian Hao shook his head and said: "I didn't arrest him, my brother called the police and arrested him. I just helped provide some clues."

After seeing today's battle, Tian Hao thought it would be better to keep a low profile.

Although Grandpa Yang is old, his eyes are very shrewd. He can see Tian Hao's thoughts at a glance and said with a smile: "It's good to be able to provide clues. I decided to lend you the shotgun. You can use it as long as you want." !”

"Thank you grandpa."

Tian Hao didn't expect such a turn of events.

Grandpa Yang turned around and entered the house, and soon came out carrying a sack.

In the sack, there was a gun wrapped in old newspapers and an iron box.

Grandpa Yang took out the gun and opened the newspaper. Inside was a layer of soft leather. When the leather was opened, it was a semi-automatic rifle.

"This is the Type [-] semi-automatic rifle that my superiors rewarded me when I was the director of security. It can fire ten rounds. After you get it back, you must first familiarize yourself with the weight of the gun and the recoil after firing. Range, etc.”

Grandpa Yang gently wiped the rifle as if it were a treasure, then rewrapped it and handed it to Tian Hao.

Tian Hao took it solemnly.
