Heroes of the Sons and Daughters

Chapter 86
The door opened in the house, and it was already daylight.Miss He looked out and saw that the two thieves were tied there.He first let the master of Zhang's family come in to have a rest, and then said to Zhang Jinbao: "Father Zhang, tell them to put these four things in the small courtyard next to this, so that we can go over and say hello. Don't be afraid of the master and madam anymore." Come here." He asked Hua Ling'er to take out two paper bags from the table, pointed at the injured thief and said to Zhang Jinbao: "It doesn't matter, this one will hit me with a shot, as long as it passes At noon, his life will be accounted for. As a good deed, wash this bag of medicinal wine and let him drink it; It’s better to ask him something.” Zhang Jinbao agreed one by one.After hearing this, the thief woke up like a dream.

Not to mention that everyone goes to cook according to the words.But Mrs. An was also taken aback at the beginning, and she didn't feel relieved until she heard that nothing happened.He only combed his hair a little, put on a blue handkerchief, and first asked someone to see his son and daughter-in-law, and it happened that the three of them came to say hello.Master An was still calm and calm, rinsing his mouth and cleansing his face.Before they could finish their work, the old couple asked for details, and Ms. He replied back and forth.Master An said to the young master: "Thanks to this daughter-in-law, otherwise the door would be opened. It would be a trivial matter to lose something. What's the matter? It's probably because my family's affairs have been going well. I can't help being a little careless. , or enjoy too much, or be complacent, so there is such a warning, everyone must be careful." Then he stood up and said, "I'll go and have a look." Mrs. An said to Miss He "You can take care of yourself." Master An said: "The thieves are all tied up, why are you afraid of him? Why don't you go over and have a look with me?"

Just as he was talking, his uncle, wife, wife, and Mrs. Chu all came over and were surprised.Everyone said a few words, only to hear a loud cry from outside the second door, saying: "What a prisoner! Where is it? Let me see some of his heads!" When I heard it, it was Deng Jiugong's voice.The master and the young master hurried out to meet him, and Mrs. an and her family members also followed.I saw that Deng Jiugong had never worn a leather jacket, only a big jacket with a suit of clothes, and a leather crouching bag, with his arms open and his head bare, holding his makeup-pressed tiger-tail steel whip in his hand. The second door, angrily, went straight to the east ear room.Master An hurriedly caught up with him and said, "Brother Nine, what are you going to do?" He said, "Don't worry about it, brother! You don't know, this mess has hurt me, and let him eat me alone. Whip again!"

Mr. An said: "No! You and I want to hurt sinners without permission. There are kings' laws."

He said again: "The king's law? If there is a king's law, there will be no thieves!" Master An said: "That's it, you and I have to ask to understand before we can make sense." He said again: "There is such a rough work there. !” As he said, he turned around and rushed over to fight.

Master An took a look at the situation, and drank a lot of wine on his forehead. He probably really drank it yesterday, and he didn't wake up clearly after sleeping all night.It's hard to say, it's hard to drag him into the house.Everyone, Mrs. An, also came over.When Mrs. Chu saw it, she first said, "It's such a cold day, why did you run out without clothes?" One sentence reminded Mr. An, and then she asked someone to go out to get the clothes.While he was dressing, he asked Miss He about the thief's behavior, and Miss He said it again.He was so angry that his huge eyes opened wide, and his silver beard was in disorder.Master An persuaded: "Brother, don't be so angry about this matter." He didn't listen any further, and said, "Brother, don't blame me for being rough. You just call this son of a bitch over and ask about it." Understand, I will talk to him again. I have my reason. When I say this reason, you will know that it is not Brother Yu who does not listen to persuasion." Master An knows his temper well, Then he said, "That's it. You and I will ask the reason for this group of people." Even Mr. Zhang went out to sit down because he asked someone to put three sticks on the porch.Mrs. An and everyone closed the damper and hid in the hole in the broken window to look out.

I saw all the family members pulling the thieves over.Master An saw that all of them were bound hands and feet upside down, and they folded their faces to the ground.The master couldn't bear the elder's heart, so he sighed first and said, "How can I trample on the same parents' remains like this?" Then he ordered: "Let them go, and they probably won't be able to run there." Deng Jiugong Shouted: "Run? Then he's in luck!" As they agreed, they loosened the ropes on the legs of the group of people, still cut their hands behind their backs, and tied the rope to one leg, and they all lifted up and knelt down. underground.

When Mr. An took a look, he saw one with thick waist and short neck, one with broad arms and long body, one with cloudy eyes and eyebrows, and one with ghostly head.Then he went on to ask: "You people, I don't ask your name and where you live. It's just that I have lived here for many years, and I have never harassed my neighbors or bullied the good and the poor. Why do you come to disturb my family for no reason? Why? Just tell the truth."

Those people were panicked and shy at the same time, they were speechless for a while, they just lowered their heads and said nothing.

Deng Jiugong got angry a long time ago, stretched out his hand, took out one of his big iron balls from his bosom, held it in his hand, opened Yuan Biaobiao's eyes, and said to the group of people: "Speak up, boy! Don't pretend to be a bastard!" The panicked one hurriedly shouted: "Old man! Don't fight, let me tell you." Looking at Deng Jiugong, he said: "Dafan is a person from Beijing, who doesn't know that you are always An Shan People, can you offend us!"

Deng Jiugong yelled again: "My surname is not An! I'm looking for a place to live. Where is my master? Tell me over there!" The man knew that he had been arguing for a long time, and if he dared not, he would not talk to him at all. coherent.Turning around, he said to Mr. An, "Listen to me." Before finishing a sentence, Hua Zhong kicked from behind, and said, "Can't you even call 'Master' or 'Little'? Are you going to the Dharma hall?" The thief quickly changed his words: "Young one, I will report to the master: today's incident is all because of the little one who has troubled the three of them." Yinnu pointed to the two next to him and said: "They are two brothers, one is Wu Liang and the other is Wu Fa; the surname is Xie, Xie Di, and everyone calls him Brother Xie; the youngest is Huo, and his name is Huo Shidao. The four of them are not talented. The younger one has an older brother, Huo Shiduan, who is a long-term follower outside. He recently fell down and fled back. The younger one talked about poverty and narrowness with him, and he said: "This In Beijing city, money is everywhere, but no one picks it up!' When the younger one asked, he mentioned that the master came from the southern province, and the people helped him with tens of thousands of silver. He heard that he married a young lady again, and the net dowry was ten Ten thousand gold, one hundred thousand silver. He also said that he pointed out the little one, and if he got it, he would split half of the bill. After hearing this, the little one invited the three of them."

When Master An heard this, he smiled and asked, "How is it now?"

The thief said: "The little ones came from the west side of Shi's house. They came around here. When I got to the house and looked at it, I couldn't come down." Mr. An said: "Why can't I come down again?" The thief said: "Little thieves have a test: Don't be afraid of the stars and moonlight, look at the house is dark, you will succeed if you go down; don't be afraid of the dark night and cloudy sky, see the house is bright, you will not be able to go down, it's a coincidence Things will happen. I walked around this house last night and looked down. The yard was like a red light. Yi Xiesan was going to turn around. It was the little one who was too greedy. Fortunately, the three of them were not too greedy. It was considered light, but it came down. I didn't want to come down this way, a total of four came, but two pairs were tied up by the master. The thief fell into this field, and now he is at home. Now the little The younger ones sent off the officials, and the younger ones asked for it. There is nothing to complain about, and the same is true when you are in the official position. The master wants to see the younger ones pitifully. He just thinks that there is a litter of puppies in that corner of the house. Ask people to throw it into the rut with their ears, and it will be considered that Master Ji Dechao has given birth to children!"

Mr. An wanted to ask further questions. Deng Jiugong had already started a conversation with him and said, "According to this, there is nothing wrong with you! It's time for us to draft a draft! Let me ask you: you Do you recognize me or not?" The four said in unison, "I don't know."

Immediately, the old man's face turned purple with anger, and he yelled together, saying: "Well, how dare you say that you don't recognize me! Tell you, my surname is Deng! I can't be regarded as a person under the feet of the emperor. I grew up in Zhuan, Jiangbei. I live in Chiping, Shandong, and I have a small reputation. People call me Deng Jiugong! If anyone in the green forest hears Deng Jiugong resting his horse there, even Caocier on the other side may not be ashamed. Move one! What's the matter, I'm staying at my good friend's house for the rest of the day, and you're just a bunch of bastards, not to mention rolling away with your mother's head in your hands. The ground is in a mess up and down! Aren’t you sincerely looking forward to my coming? How dare you openly say that you don’t recognize me! Blind one of your eyes by yourself first, and you’ll probably recognize me in the future!” Just roll up your sleeves to fight.

Master An listened for a long time before he understood the reason why he was so angry. He stepped forward and grabbed him, laughing and said: "Old brother, you have been angry for a long time, so that's why. Why do you speak human language like a beast?" Already?" He said impatiently, "brother, don't you know that I'm not enough to look down upon?" Mr. An said: "Especially a joke! I have a word, old brother, you don't have to say it. Even if you If you are famous in Jianghu, if you are indiscriminate, you have to be wooed by King Kong Hao Wu and Haima Wednesday, and know your name; how can you tell them to know you, how can they deserve to know?"

Mr. An's evening talk is called "Indigo Dyeing White Cloth—One thing drops one thing".

Seeing him earlier, he nodded and said, "brother, I'm against your words. Even so, since he doesn't have the ability to pluck a goose's hair, he should come quietly and leave quietly. How can you be careful?" How can you make people lose hope? This reason can't be tolerated!"

Mr. An said: "It's not uncommon for thieves to go all over the world, digging windows and kicking two tiles. According to me, this group of people only read the word 'hunger and cold' to become so shameless. There is no such shame now. Hurting people, but not losing anything, it would be better to let them go and tell them to reform themselves, and that would be the end of the matter.”

Deng Jiugong just twitched his beard and shook his head, as if holding back his thoughts.The son heard that he didn't dare to refute his father's words, so he just said: "Ask your father, if it doesn't work, let it go." Unexpectedly, he was already angry with his hometown general Zhang Jinbao.Hearing that Mr. An wanted to release these four thieves, he went out of the shift more and more, knelt down and replied: "Master An, these four people cannot be released. Everything else is trivial. This is about Huo Shiduan. Huo Shiduan once I have received the grace of the master, eaten the money, food and rice from the master, and did such an unconscionable thing, isn't it against the law? In the future, slaves who are in charge of the family, how can they look up to others? According to the muddleheaded idea of ​​the slave, I beg the master Send them to the court, and the slaves go out to make a complaint and confront him. This lawsuit will have to come out of Huo Shiduan." Master An said: "Ah! A Mr. Deng Jiu, I managed to persuade him Stop it, you are here again. It really is Huo Shiduan's idea, what harm does it do to me? What harm does it do to you? How can a villain be a villain, a gentleman is happy to be a gentleman, there is no need to be so arrogant!"

Deng Jiugong said: "Your father and son don't need to lift them. I have a reason. It's not necessary to send him off to the official. The reason is that if he can't walk three stops or two stops, he can pay him a dollar for the discharge. I just let it go back, it’s still him. It’s okay to let it go like this. I’m going to be smarter than you men here. Don’t tell them in front of them, let’s shake the box [Shock the box: It means explaining the words face to face]. Brother, you must know that he is a thief. When he is on the way, no one wants to win, and he is not willing to get it; Just let him go, but you have to prevent him from coming again. Just let him come again. Don’t talk about this face, he is more capable than him. It doesn’t matter if you come to such a 180. It’s just that you and I have so much time to wait. Let him get angry? Even if he knows how to advance and retreat, he dare not come back again. Dogs can’t change eating shit. A criminal went to the official and said that he was let off in our house. Brother, you can delay the exam. !"

When Mr. An heard that his words were really reasonable, he asked, "Brother Yijiu, how are you?" Nothing to do. Leave this group of people to me. For your kindness, I will never let him touch a finger or hurt a hair on him, but I will let him go only after he has been rubbed into the family property!"

After he finished speaking, he said to the gang of thieves without any discussion: "Did you hear this? The master has let you go. It's no one's business. Now it's Mr. Deng Jiu who said to you Lie! Didn’t you just say that his family married a young lady, and the net dowry is 12 gold and [-] silver? There is such a thing, I’m afraid you can’t touch him with his gold and silver. Let me tell you first My letter, he was the one who heard about your tile yesterday, he was the one who extinguished your incense stick, he was the one who tied up one of your arms, and the one who shot one of your hips. He started from the age of [-] As a girl, since she entered the rivers and lakes, she has a long spear and a short stick, eighteen kinds of martial arts, and is omnipotent. In terms of strength, the number one stone in martial arts is not enough for him to slip; when it comes to squatting, three floors are not enough for him to stretch his waist. He can He is my apprentice! Do you believe this or not? Now he is just a grandmother and wife, and he is unwilling to fight with you dogs, so he didn’t open the door yesterday, just shoot that arrow lightly, Let me report to you. His arrows are called sleeve arrows, also known as Lianzhu arrows, and he shoots five in a row. He wants to shoot you four, and there is still one left. Besides, he has a slingshot with a copper tire and an iron back. An iron bullet weighing one or two eight coins is taken two hundred steps away, and you have to point out the place. This is a family heirloom, so I will show it to you. In addition, there is a Yanling Japanese sword." He said. , He turned to Mr. an and said, "Old nephew, where is the knife?" Mr. an knew his intention early on, and said, "it's with me." Then he asked Mr. An to fetch it.

Deng Jiugong took it in his hand, pulled it out, and flashed in front of the group of people.The eight hands of those four were cutting backwards behind their backs, and there was no way to parry them, so they only gasped, turned their heads and hid.Deng Jiugong looked at it, laughed loudly, and said, "I'm sorry that you guys can't hold back this knife! But one thing, your Ninth Grand Master pays attention to the fact that the knife has no time to pass, so you have to use your weapons to avoid disasters." Already!" As he spoke, he picked up the shun knives, steel whips, axes, iron rulers, etc. that the four of them used, and used the Japanese knife in his hand to chop melons and vegetables, chopping melons and vegetables, and instantly cut into a piece of wood. A pile of broken copper and rotten iron was piled on the ground, and he said, "Boy, take it and exchange it for your mother for a cool hairpin!"

The four thieves were stunned.He put down his knife and shouted: "I'm done talking. If you don't believe in it, don't be reconciled. You're leaving today, just come another day! You also have to know that I didn't destroy you guys to ridicule you, but to destroy you." Wei take care of you. Otherwise, don’t stop when you go out of this door and bring these strange things with you. Are you afraid that you won’t find a place to take them? Is it? You old brothers also have to guard and protect me. You see, I managed to achieve this point in Jiangnan, Jiangbei, Guanliguan, and outside. Today, you are just under my nose and ruining my good friend’s house. It's a mess, I don't agree! You see, didn't I change the way to break up your whole weapons? You just want to break up my place Fix the tiles for me!" This is exactly how mending the sky can bridge the sky gap, how can the tiles be complete if the tiles are destroyed?
If you want to know what happened next, I will explain it in the next book.
