Chapter 1210 It doesnt look good to go back empty-handed
"Crack!"
With a thunder that almost sounded overhead, the dim hall on the second floor was lit up in an instant, and the four traitors who were standing side by side at the stairs to urinate on the first floor couldn't help but trembled in fright.
Before the rolling thunder subsided, the kerosene lamp that had just been hung on the wall was extinguished by a hand reaching out from behind. At the same time, a slender and sharp Mauser bayonet also appeared from the skinny monkey.
The traitor's neck was wiped with a knife.
Accompanied by a soft sound that was almost perfectly eliminated by the thunder, the man next to the thin monkey ducked away as if he had been stung by a scorpion, and cursed in his mouth as he greeted, "Monkey Si'er, you're such a mess."
I got it! Why did the light go out again?"
It's a pity that the man named Hou Si'er's eyesight has gone dark at this time, and he can only cover the opened blood vessels and trachea in his neck. How can he still have the strength to answer?
Before he could fall while holding on to the wall, Wei Ran had already thrust the bayonet in his hand diagonally into the lower back of the man who he thought had been peed on his hand. After piercing his lung, he stabbed him accurately.
heart.
Without drawing the knife at all, Wei Ran directly hugged the third man's drunken head and pulled his chin hard while pushing the top of his head hard with his other hand.
In such a blink of an eye, from the first person's gasping to the second person's groan, and even the crisp sound of the third person's spine being broken, it all made the last person realize that something was wrong.
.
This man was quite clever. He didn't even have time to turn off the faucet on his lower body, picked up his pants and ran downstairs. At the same time, he was so panicked that he shouted a warning.
"quick..."
Just as a word came out of the man's mouth, he heard a splashing sound in the darkness, and then he felt something cold being stabbed into his stomach.
"quick..."
The deflated traitor felt his throat was sweet and his stomach was burning with pain. However, Tao Canhua, who had already held down his shoulder, did not stop and pulled out the eviscerating knife that almost penetrated the opponent.
The sharp knife, with a "pop!" sound, plunged into his chest with a fierce expression.
"Plop!"
At this moment, the first person whose neck was wiped by Wei Ran completely lost his strength and rolled down the stairs.
As for Wei Ran, who was standing at the top of the stairs, he grabbed the collar of the man whose neck was broken with one hand and the belt of the man who was stabbed in the back with the other hand, and carefully let them lie down on the floor.
.
"Is he dead?" Wei Ran asked in a low voice.
"Dead... seems to be dead..." Tao Canhua responded tremblingly, as if he was afraid of being unsafe, and once again pulled out the boning knife he brought with him and stabbed the opponent's chest again.
"Give the one who just fell down a shot," Wei Ran said. He had already pulled out the bayonet from the body and walked toward the restaurant in the dark.
"Crack!"
At this moment, another bolt of lightning accompanied by thunder struck across the night sky, and Wei Ran also used the flash of light to quickly glance at the situation in the restaurant.
Immediately afterwards, he took out the flashlight from the metal book, turned it on, and inspected the restaurant carefully.
It was annoying to say that in a corner of the restaurant, there were five or six sacks with Japanese printed on them piled up against the wall. He didn't need to open them at all, but he knew that the contents should be rice.
Sure enough, when he poked a hole in the sack with a bayonet, he immediately saw white rice.
Looking around again, there was a steel scale and two large baskets of white radishes on a table not far away.
Looking at the mahjong table again, Wei Ran wanted to beat the four people to death all over again. In addition to the unfinished card games on the table, there were also several lotus white wine bottles placed under the table, especially each one.
In front of the seat, there was a plate of unfinished roast chicken!
He took out his pocket watch and checked the time. After thinking for a while, Wei Ran used a flashlight to guide Tao Canhua, who was covered in blood. After whispering a few instructions into his ear, he turned off the flashlight and led him to stand next to him.
On both sides of the room door.
Hiding his body behind the wall, Wei Ran stretched out a hand and carefully turned the door handle.
When the door was easily pushed open, Wei Ran realized that there was probably no one in the room.
Sure enough, as the door opened little by little, and with the help of lightning that pierced the night sky from time to time, he could clearly see that there was not even a bed in the room where he killed the Japanese girl, let alone anyone.
Not only that, there is even a cage of pigeons and four hens in this room. The food bowl is filled with full corn kernels and unhusked millet.
After thinking for a moment, Wei Ran did not enter the room. Instead, he gently closed the door and led Tao Canhua, who was holding a small PPK pistol in his hand, to the next room.
Different from the first room, this room is not only locked, but also locked from the outside. Even the lock tongue is not original, but was added later.
Seeing this, Wei Ran suppressed the doubts in his heart, greeted Tao Canhua and moved to the third room.
However, this time, before Wei Ran, who had hidden himself, reached out to open the door, the door opened by itself with a "click"!
Seeing this, Wei Ran immediately retracted his hand and raised the bayonet with his other hand.
With a very clear "squeak" sound, the door was completely opened, and a stocky, shirtless man wearing large pants, black cloth shoes, carrying a kerosene lamp, yawning and walked out of the room in confusion.
came out, but there was no intention of closing the door.
When the opponent was about to turn around and see Tao Canhua hiding on the other side, Wei Ran didn't dare to think too much. When he stood up, he already put the bayonet in his hand on the opponent's neck and covered it with his other hand.
before the other person could close his mouth.
Such a sudden encounter inevitably made the man shiver, and at the same time he subconsciously let go of the kerosene lamp in his hand.
"broken!"
Wei Ran's heart sank, and then he discovered that the kerosene lamp that was about to fall to the ground had been held firmly from the lamp holder by a blood-stained bone-picking knife. Following closely, Tao Canhua, who saved the kerosene lamp,
But as if he was showing off his skills, he squatted in a squatting position, held the oil lamp with the narrow blade of the knife, and quietly but extremely nimbly took a few steps backwards into the distance!
This is not over yet. When the light no longer enveloped Wei Ran and the traitor who was controlled by him, Tao Canhua not only stood up again with the knife holding the kerosene lamp, but also used the knife in his hand to gently lift it up.
He placed the kerosene lamp that was still emitting light steadily into his other hand and held it.
This line was performed so smoothly that not only Wei Ran was stunned, but even the man who was restrained by him had his eyes widened. Even Wei Ran suspected that if he hadn't covered his mouth, this would have happened.
The goods probably have to clap their hands and say "good"!
Obviously, now was not the time to cheer. Wei Ran pushed with the bayonet in his hand, pressed the man who suddenly opened the door for them and took a few steps towards Tao Canhua. It wasn't until the two of them came to the living room that he asked
, "Which room is Ding Rongfu in?"
"Then...that..." The traitor with such a huge figure immediately raised his finger and pointed in the direction.
"What did you come out for?" Wei Ran continued to ask, but then he smelled the smell of urine.
"Grandpa, I'm just going to stay up all night. Please let me go back. I didn't see anything." The traitor begged in a low voice.
"Is there anyone else in the room you came out of?" Wei Ran continued to ask.
"Yes, yes"
The traitor who betrayed his friend simply said, "There are three more inside. The four of us are watching for the rest of the night."
"Who else lives in this room?" After Wei Ran asked, he glanced at Tao Canhua, who was holding a gun in both hands and staring at the room just now.
"And Mr. Ding San... Ding San'er's cousin, he lives in the room opposite Ding San." The traitor replied in a low voice like pouring beans into the bamboo tube, "There are a few more... a few
A little girl."
"Where did this little girl come from?" Wei Ran asked in a low voice.
"Bought...bought"
The traitor's voice was much softer, "They are all other people's young ladies, used in exchange for food. When we saved up a batch, we gave them to the queen... and sold them to the brothels in the Japanese Concession."
"What's your name?" Wei Ran asked Feng Ma Niu irrelevantly.
"My name is...Pfft!"
This traitor who exploited his compatriots didn't even have time to say his name. The Mauser bayonet in Wei Ran's hand had already pierced his heart. At the same time, Wei Ran covered his mouth again.
After waiting quietly for a moment until the man stopped struggling, Wei Ran slowly pulled out his bayonet, walked to Tao Canhua, pointed to the two rooms where the Ding brothers lived, then extinguished the kerosene lamp and said, "You
Just hide and keep an eye on those two rooms while I go deal with the others."
"What if they come out?" Tao Canhua asked in a low voice.
"Don't you have a gun in your hand?" Wei Ran asked back, stepping towards the room that had not yet had time to close the door.
With the help of the lightning that lit up from time to time outside the window, he was able to see clearly that there were four beds placed against the wall in this room, and in the middle were two desks together. On this desk, there were also a lot of food and drinks, and even some food.
There was a big smoking gun.
First, he went to the empty bed and took a pillow towel and wrapped it around his hand. Wei Ran randomly selected the one who snored the least, covered his mouth with the pillow towel with one hand, and stabbed the bayonet in with the other hand in no particular order.
into his chest.
Then, as he did "two years ago", he pulled it out twice and stabbed it in, piercing his lung. Then he wiped the blade clean with the pillowcase in his hand that smelled of scalp oil, and picked another person in the room.
He continued to work as a specialist in treating snoring.
After easily dealing with the other three people in the room, Wei Ran did not dare to waste time and reunited with Tao Canhua who was on sentry duty.
After listening attentively in the last two rooms, Wei Ran took out two hairpins from his pocket that he had borrowed from Qiushi during the day, and easily opened the locked door.
Pushing open the door, under the beam of the flashlight, he and Tao Canhua who followed him immediately saw a man lying on the bed with his hair parted in the middle and bright red trousers, with a tabby cat in his arms.
Maybe it was the heavy rain and thunder outside the window, or maybe it was the unfinished bottle of foreign wine on the bedside. The flashlight's light shone on his face, but the man didn't wake up at all.
In this case, what is there to say? Wei Ran knocked him unconscious directly, then asked Tao Canhua to help cover his mouth, and neatly dismantled the joints of his hands and one foot, and finally removed the jaw bone, and again
He knocked him unconscious and threw him on the bed.
After looking at Tao Canhua, who was grinning subconsciously, Wei Ran pried open Ding Rongfu's door and turned on the flashlight again.
Under the beam of the flashlight, he immediately noticed Ding Rongfu lying on the bed, as well as the large smoking gun and cigarette lamp placed on the bedside table.
"who?!"
Ding Rongfu was relatively more vigilant, but he only had time to ask such a question before Wei Ran knocked him out behind the ear.
After repeating the same trick and paralyzing the opponent's mobility, Wei Ran and Tao Canhua quickly searched the remaining rooms on the second floor that were not locked from the outside.
"Go back and bring in the reinforcements."
After Wei Ran brought Tao Canhua back to the restaurant, he whispered into his ear, "There is so much food here, we have to find a way to transport it all back."
"I'll go back right away!" Tao Canhua immediately nodded with gleaming eyes.
"Don't go back empty-handed, it won't look good." Wei Ran pointed to the curtained window of the restaurant, "By the way, take two bags of rice with you."
"Yes! That's so right!"
Tao Canhua nodded excitedly and subconsciously ran towards the stairs, but was then grabbed by Wei Ran.
"Go this way"
As he spoke, Wei Ran opened the curtains, opened the wooden window shutters that reinforced the windows, and finally pushed open the window, pointing to the boat floating outside and saying, "Just use it, you can clear the water inside."
Qing, I’ll go find a tarpaulin.”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Hearing this, Tao Canhua immediately jumped on the boat, picked up an enamel basin inside and began to scoop water out.
At the same time, Wei Ran also found a few ponchos, wrapped two bags of rice tightly, and carried them to the boat. He also threw a few large white radishes on top.
After sending away Tao Canhua who was rowing back, Wei Ran did not close the window at all and even kicked the sandbag on the balcony.
Finally, he walked to the mahjong table and picked up the unfinished roast chicken and put it together into a large plate. After searching around for a while, Wei Ran first put on the raincoat he had just found, and then used a white towel that looked quite clean.
After covering his face, he pried open the door that was locked with a padlock from the outside.
However, when he walked into this small room with a flashlight, he was stunned. There was a quilt spread on the wooden floor of the room, and there were five people lying in a row on it. Judging from their stature, they were probably around fourteen or fifteen years old.
A little girl who is 10 years old or maybe even younger.
These little girls in rags all wore black cloth covers on their faces, and there was an iron chain firmly locked with a lock at their ankles. These iron chains were eventually fixed to the heating pipes in this room.
superior.
Perhaps it was because of the noise when the door was opened, or perhaps because they felt a little light when the flashlight beam swept across the black cloth covers on their faces. At this time, these thin girls all shrank and leaned against each other.
Hiding in the corner.
"Don't be afraid"
Wei Ran said in a hoarse voice on purpose, "I'm here to save you, and you will be able to leave soon."
After a moment's pause, he continued, "Next, I'm going to unchain you, and you have to promise not to take off your hoods, otherwise I'll have no choice but to kill you. Do you understand?"
"Listen, I understand." A girl closest to Wei Ran answered, suppressing her fear.
"Don't move next," Wei Ran said, walking over and starting to work on picking the lock.
Objectively speaking, the padlocks of this era are far easier to pry than those of later generations, but they are not as convenient as wire cutters. So by the time he pried open the last little girl's chain, Tao Canhua had already taken Chen Pike with him.
Together with Xu Keqin and Jasmine, they rowed two boats to the window of the restaurant.
“Just in time”
Wei Ran, who heard the noise, hid his left hand behind his back and put away his bayonet, "You three, hurry up and move your things. Remember to wrap them in raincoats. You can't take those rice if they are stained with dirty water. Remember not to light the lamp. Then who, you
Come on."
Hearing this, Jasmine was stunned and walked towards Wei Ran.
Close to his ear, he briefly explained the situation of the five little girls in the room and the subsequent troubles they might cause.
"Take it back"
Jasmine made a decision simply. As she spoke, she had already pulled off the black cloth on the faces of the little girls. After some soft words of comfort, she took them out of the room and rowed one of the boats to leave first.
"You come here too"
Wei Ran greeted Xu Keqin, the youngest, and led him into the room where the pigeons were raised. He whispered into his ear, "Take all these pigeons and chickens back and tell Yang Ma that all of them will be raised tonight."
Kill them, burn all the feathers of chickens and pigeons, eat all the meat you can eat tonight, and finally throw the bones far away."
"Why...why?"
Xu Keqin glanced at the hens and pigeons in the room with distress, "Maybe they can still lay eggs."
"Lay whatever eggs you lay."
Tao Canhua, who was following, gave Xu Keqin a gentle tap on the back of his head, "These pigeons are probably homing pigeons. Look, they have mailboxes on their legs. And the chickens have to croak for a long time to lay an egg. It doesn't matter.
If anyone finds us, we'll all be screwed."
"Also...also"
After thinking about it, Xu Keqin grinned, and Tao Canhua each picked up the chicken and pigeon cages and walked out.
Watching Tao Canhua and the others go back in another boat with two bags of rice and pigeons and hens, Wei Ran was still not in a hurry to interrogate the tied up Ding Rongfu, but instead searched the corpses all over the ground one by one.
It may be said that these traitors seem to be living a happy life, but in fact they all have a lot of trouble.
In contrast, Ding Rongfu's cousin still had a lot of money. Wei Ran found out thirty or forty silver coins and two small yellow croakers with residual tooth marks from his room without any effort at all.
"I'll go to Ding Rongfu to ask something first, and I'll come over to ask you later."
Wei Ran gently patted the other party's cheek and said, "Think carefully about what I am here for. If your answers are inconsistent later, you will both die."
After saying that, Wei Ran ignored the frightened look on his head and the tabby cat lying at the foot of the bed, and walked into Ding Rongfu's room with the silver coins and gold bars he picked up in his hand.
After closing the door, Wei Ran took out a lighter and lit the cigarette lamp beside the bed, and then lit two kerosene lamps on the table.
It wasn't until the room became brighter that he held up a flashlight and inspected the room carefully, ignoring Ding Rongfu's struggling and twisting.
"Yo——! So it's hidden here!"
After Wei Ran opened the cabinet door on the side of the desk by the window, he pointed the beam of the flashlight at the safe and exclaimed in an exaggerated manner. Then he turned around with a smile and looked at the man on the bed huddled in the corner.
Ding Rongfu asked, "Reporter Ding, do you still know me?"
Hearing this, Ding Rongfu on the bed immediately nodded.
"Just knowing each other"
Wei Ran snapped his fingers, "Wait a minute, I'll put your chin back on, and I'll ask you questions and answer them honestly. I'm in a good mood and I might be able to spare your life. If you dare to yell, then we'll have to have a good time tonight."
It’s so lively and lively.”
Hearing this, Ding Rongfu quickly nodded again.
"Pull your tongue back"
Wei Ran deliberately frightened the other person, held the other person's chin and pushed it up, and completed the joint reset with a click. Immediately afterwards, Ding Rongfu also screamed "Ouch!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But soon, Ding Rongfu hurriedly said, "Uncle Wei, you are my biological father! In view of our previous friendship, please let me Ding San go."
Give me a hand! Just this time! I will definitely remember your great kindness, I..."
“Cut the nonsense”
Wei Ran slowly lit up a cigarette, stared at the other person's eyes that were avoiding him and asked, "If you want to honor me, tell me the password to the safe first."
"Dad, I, I only have those three melons and two dates!" Ding Rongfu begged with a bitter face, "The old lady at home eats it every day..."
"Don't tell me, right?" Wei Ran smiled at the other party, and there was a bayonet in his hand.
"Say! I'll say it!" Ding Rongfu immediately gave up and simply told Wei Ran the password.
After carefully checking the other party's dislocated hands, Wei Ran opened the safe according to the password.
This safe is not big. In addition to four small yellow croakers stacked in a tic-tac-shape, there are also two envelopes of silver coins. In addition, there are a pair of jade bracelets and a tin tea tube in the safe.
However, this tea tube does not contain tea leaves, but is filled with tobacco paste.
"You are dishonest"
Wei Ran took out these things and said, "You'd better think again if there is anything valuable. If you can't think of anything valuable, I will help you find a way."
"Sir, you are not being honest when you come to rob someone."
Ding Rongfu, who had given up just now, said with a look of disdain, "You can't be short-minded if you are poor. You have enough money to spend, and you can do great things. So... Oops!"
Before Ding Rongfu could finish his words, Wei Ran gave him a slap in the face, "Don't say it, it's easy to handle."
Before he finished speaking, Wei Ran picked off his chin again, then picked up a pillow towel and stuffed it in. Then, amid Ding Rongfu's constant twisting and struggling and suppressed screams, he slowly opened one of his hands.
Then he reinstalled all the joints one by one. Finally, the things in his mouth were restored to their original shape and his jaw was put back on.
"I said, I said!"
Ding Rongfu, who was crying from pain, replied tremblingly, "The living room, under the big sofa in the living room!"
"Are you investigating the Guan siblings and their classmates?" Wei Ran asked abruptly.
"right..."
Ding Rongfu only said half of the word before he realized something was wrong, but at the same time, Wei Ran had already picked up his other hand that had not been tortured.
"Yep!"
Ding Rongfu replied decisively, "The person in charge of this matter is my cousin. He, he is in the house opposite."
"I will ask him later. The next thing I ask, if your voice is loud enough for your cousin to hear, I will peel off the skin from your fingers one by one."
Wei Ran touched Ding Rongfu's hand like a complete pervert and continued to ask, "What did you find out through your investigation?"
"I don't... Ouch!"
Just as Ding Rongfu was about to ask a question, his little finger was slightly poked by Wei Ran. Although his finger was not broken, it hurt so much that he lay on the bed, hoping to make his body feel better.
.
"We found out that the Guan siblings and their classmates seem to have contacts with... and those people!" Ding Rongfu lowered his voice and said.
"Who are they?" Wei Ran asked with a smile.
"They are those people who post big-character posters on the streets every day." Ding Rongfu's voice became even lower.
"How did you find out?" Wei Ran continued to ask.
"Before we started the flood, we met someone who secretly posted big-character posters."
Ding Rongfu said in a low voice, "We didn't catch him. We followed him secretly for a few days and saw that he interacted with the eldest daughter of the Guan family every now and then, and he would definitely go to put up posters the next day."
"Then why didn't you do anything?" Wei Ran asked slowly, holding one of the other's fingers. The red butt of the cigarette he held in his other hand seemed to be pressed into Ding Rongfu's palm at any time.
.
"We have no evidence, and we don't know where they printed the newspapers."
Ding Rongfu said with a grimace, "If we don't have any real evidence, wouldn't it mean that we have offended Mr. Guan? He is so... a popular figure in front of the little devil."
"That being said, you can survive."
Wei Ran muttered with a smile, then asked, "Who knows about this?"
"They are all in this house," Ding Rongfu replied honestly, "Sir, you took a puff of cigarette and burned me."
"What's going on with those little girl movies that are locked up over there?" Wei Ran took a puff on his cigarette and asked with a smile, "How about you let me pick a few and take them back?"
"What you said is the filial piety I have prepared for you!"
Ding Rongfu replied flatteringly, "Isn't this a joke? Those poor people who fled into the concession have no way of living and entrust us to take care of their daughters. That's it! If you like anyone, no, you take them all with you."
Let’s go! It just saved me three meals of white rice a day!”
"Okay, you're welcome then." Wei Ran blew a puff of smoke into the other person's face, "Where did you do their parents?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Ding Rongfu's expression changed, but soon he suppressed his faint uneasiness and said with a smile, "Then I must give them half a bag of rice and millet and send them away."
.”
"Okay"
Wei Ran picked up the pillow towel that had just stuffed the other person's mouth and said, "I'll ask your cousin later. If the answers are different, you two can go live in the basement tonight."
"Don't, don't!" Ding Rongfu immediately panicked, "I, I remembered."
"What did you remember?" Wei Ran continued to ask.
"I introduced their parents to jobs near the dock in the Japanese Concession, and they all went there to work for the Japanese." Ding Rongfu explained in panic with a smiling face.
Hearing this, Wei Ran suppressed the murderous intention in his heart, blocked his mouth again with the towel, and fixed it with a belt.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Although Ding Rongfu's bullshit is lighthearted, Wei Ran, a passer-by from later generations, clearly knows that the parents of those little girls are not allowed to leave and are not allowed to leave.
The British and French Concession.
Even if they were able to go out, even if they really went to work for the Japanese in exchange for food and drink, I am afraid that soon the Japanese would put them on a boat in the name of rescuing refugees and send them all the way to the recruitment homeland to work.
Coolie, a coolie who can never go home!
Returning to Ding Rongfu's cousin's room with a gloomy face, Wei Ran asked the question just now and got a relatively more truthful answer. Those girls are basically the ones they lure with food and drink these days, and pick them up from the streets.
An orphan with nowhere to go who was deceived!
In addition, regarding the matter of the Guan family siblings, the answers given by these two people were extremely consistent.
Just at this time, Tao Canhua and Chen Pike also rushed back in their own boats.
After wrapping the last two bags of grain in raincoats and loading them onto the boat, Wei Ran groped under the sofa and successfully found four large yellow croakers wrapped tightly in cloth.
After sending the looted yellow and white things back to the pike together with the grains and big white radishes, Wei Ran took Tao Canhua, who was left behind, to knock down all the waterproofing facilities on the second floor of the house that were reinforced with sandbags and wooden boards.
, and then opened all the doors and windows, inviting all the wind and rain outside.
This wasn't over yet. Before leaving, Wei Ran called for Tao Canhua's help. He used the chains that had imprisoned the little girls to hang all the corpses on the door frame with one foot upward, and cut additional cuts with a knife.
Open your wrist.
Finally, Wei Ran pushed the two Ding cousins who were already frightened into the boat, called out to Tao Canhua, who was also frightened, put on his raincoat and left the small courtyard in the increasingly manic thunderstorm.
"Why do you do this?" Tao Canhua finally couldn't help it and asked Wei Ran's ear.
"look away"
Wei Ran also explained to the other person's ear, "This small building had a murder case two years ago, and it is said to be haunted. Now not only has someone been hanged up and bled, but the Ding brothers have also disappeared. Who do you think
Could it be the murderer?"
"Those must be the Ding brothers"
Tao Canhua immediately thought of the obvious answer, but then he asked, "But what should the Ding brothers do?"
"Don't worry about it," Wei Ran asked firmly, "Did you send those grains to the mute uncle?"
"I sent it, I sent it all, and my aunt even packed an extra bag of rice."
"Send these two over together." Wei Ran pointed behind him, "Let the mute uncle take these two goods to the suburbs and deal with them."
"Understood!"
Tao Canhua nodded and began to shake the oar vigorously. At the same time, Wei Ran also covered the Ding brothers who were lying in the cabin with a dusty sheet and were also whispering.
After covering the two living creatures, Wei Ran asked curiously, "Canhua, how did you take those two steps when you took the kerosene lamp?"
"You can practice it"
Tao Canhua leaned over and explained, "I used to learn Wu Chou in the theater troupe. I have been practicing martial arts for several years. In the past two years, I have learned some sword and horse skills from my aunt. The few steps you see are considered Wu Chou's.
The footwork, holding an oil lamp with a knife, is something that a swordsman knows by analogy."
"Isn't this your first time killing someone?" Wei Ran asked suddenly.
Hearing this, Tao Canhua trembled, then nodded, "When my father and I were playing piano and singing in Peking, we killed three heavy smokers who beat my father, and then we ran to Jinmen."
"How old were you then?" Wei Ran asked with interest.
"Sixteen" Tao Canhua shook the oar harder and harder, "Shortly after my father entrusted me to the theater troupe, he died."
Hearing this, Wei Ran sighed secretly, but for a moment he didn't know how to comfort this young man who was dull but smart and brave.
