Back in the 1980s, hiking in the mountains was also a way of life

Chapter 481 The living are more valuable than the dead

Zhang Shuya patted Wang An's hand as he was about to raise his gun, and then said:

"We can't beat this guy to death now, otherwise we'll have to find another reason to nail Xing Liwen to death."

Wang An was well versed in legal provisions, and he also knew that for a police officer, a living person would always be more valuable than a dead person.

So after hearing Zhang Shuya's words, Wang An put away his gun.

Then, Wang An pulled out the box guns from the waists of this man and the dead man next to him, untied this man's belt, and tied him up.

But only the arms were tied, not the legs.

Looking at the man humming all the time, Wang An felt a little annoyed, mainly because he was worried that this man would shout on the road and cause unnecessary trouble.

So Wang An thought about it and cut a knot of rope from his waist.

After cutting the rope, Wang An pinched the man's chin with his left hand and tied the rope around his mouth, just like a horse bit.

I saw this man shaking his head and mumbling something like "Ali Ula", as if he was saying "Stop tying your mouth".

But Wang An ignored him and wrapped the rope around the man's head several times before tying the two ends into a knot.

When Zhang Shuya saw this scene, her expression didn't change at all, as if what Wang An did was a natural thing to do.

In fact, according to Wang An's idea, he was going to let this person walk back directly, but Wang An quickly rejected this idea, mainly because the journey was not short and it would take too much time.

After bringing the two men's horses over, Wang An thought for a moment and said to Zhang Shuya:

"Big sister, come and give me a hand. Let's throw him onto the horse. I don't have the strength to use my waist."

Zhang Shuya glared at Wang An and said to him,
"Look at you, you're a piece of shit. Go to the side quickly. You're fighting and getting beaten to a pulp. It's really shameful. When you recover a little, hurry up and practice with me, you piece of shit."

Zhang Shuya's words made Wang An very embarrassed. It was mainly because being beaten was one thing, but he was almost beaten to the point where he could not take care of himself. It was really embarrassing.

So Wang An didn't dare to say anything and just watched silently from the side. That was the honest way.

After Zhang Shuya finished speaking, she walked up to the person who was still humming, grabbed his pants and clothes with both hands, and without any effort, the man flew into the air.

Then, Zhang Shuya bent back slightly, lifted the man up, and threw him on the horse's back like a sack, making the man lie prone on the horse's back.

On the other hand, Zhang Shuya didn’t seem to blush or feel nervous, as if she didn’t take the 100 pounds seriously at all.

During this period, although the man's mouth was tied by Wang An, it still did not prevent him from making fearful "woohoo" sounds.

Seeing this, Wang An quickly tied the man to the horse's back with a rope.

To be honest, Wang An had never seen a woman as strong as Zhang Shuya in his life, including in his previous life.

Of course, I have never seen a woman who eats as much as Zhang Shuya.

After tying up the man, Wang An went to dispose of the body alone, and the three of them and four horses went back together.

Zhang Shuya didn't even ask how the body was dealt with, as if Wang An had just thrown away the garbage.

I have to say that in the mountains, human life and animal life are actually no different.

Especially for people like Zhang Shuya and Wang An, who have seen a lot of life and death, their expressions are exactly the same when facing human corpses and animal corpses, with no change at all.

As the horses had not yet rested, Wang An and Zhang Shuya did not dare to let them run, so they just walked leisurely, and the speed was quite slow.

Even so, they rested twice on the way. Horses are like this. They are very strong when pulling carts or sleds. If they run fast with people on their backs, especially through the woods on a rugged road, they can't run anymore after running a hundred or eighty miles.

Normally, if a horse carrying a person, such as a war horse like Dalma, runs for more than 300 miles continuously, it will be exhausted to death.

An ordinary large blue horse like the one found in the local area can only run about 250 miles and then it is basically dead.

But all of these need to be done on flat ground.

Because running in the mountains and running on flat ground are completely different.

When the three men and four horses returned to Wang An's house, it was already past 4 p.m.

Wang Dazhui and his wife had not returned from helping to unload bricks, and Wang Yi had not yet finished school. Mu Xueqing was still at home with her two sisters-in-law.

When Mu Xueqing saw Wang An and Zhang Shuya coming back and saw a person lying on the horse's back, she immediately showed a happy expression.

Mu Xueqing did not ask about Wang An and the others' journey, but directly greeted them and said:
"Sister, Xiao An, come inside and eat first. The pot is still hot."

Zhang Shuya smiled and said:

"Well, I didn't eat in the morning, so I was thinking of having a good meal here at noon. But now it's all Xiao An's fault. He conscripted me as soon as I got here. I'm so hungry that I'm almost starving."

Mu Xueqing also smiled and said:

"Yeah, it's all Xiao An's fault. When we're full, we'll beat up your brother to vent our anger. It's his fault that he always gets into trouble every day."

I have to say that Mu Xueqing is a woman with quick reactions and her words are quite meaningful. The first sentence she said was "Xiao An", and the second sentence became "your brother".

She was almost telling Zhang Shuya openly: He is your younger brother. As his sister, what do you have to complain about?

Zhang Shuya naturally understood what Mu Xueqing meant, and immediately laughed and teased:
"Xueqing, you are so handsome and you are so protective of your man. Xiao An was able to marry you. Is it because the ancestral tomb of the Wang family caught fire?"

Mu Xueqing may not have heard of the "ancestral grave on fire" joke, so she said a little confusedly:

"Did the ancestral tomb catch fire before Xiao An married me? How come I didn't know about it?"

Zhang Shuya was stunned at first when she heard that, but when she realized that Mu Xueqing was serious and not joking, she couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Wang An, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but laugh when he saw this scene.

Only Mu Xueqing looked at the two of them with a puzzled look on her face, and she had no idea what they were laughing at.

After the two of them laughed enough, Zhang Shuya explained:

"Xueqing, have you ever heard of the story of 'green smoke coming out of the ancestral grave'?"

Mu Xueqing nodded and said, "Yeah, I know."

Zhang Shuya smiled and said, "Then is fire more prosperous than smoke?"

Mu Xueqing was stunned at first, but immediately realized what "the ancestral grave is on fire" meant, and she couldn't help but laugh.

The two women went into the house chatting and laughing, but Wang An couldn't just ignore them and go in as well.

We have to make some arrangements for the horse and this man.
