Ma Liu, whose real name is Ma Kui, fled to Tianjin with his parents when there was a flood in Hebei nine years ago.
His father and two younger brothers died of starvation and illness on the way, and his sister was sold to Yazi for food. After finally escaping to Tianjin, her mother also gave up, leaving Ma Liu alone in the world.
At that time, Du Xiaoshan was only the owner of Nan Shan Tang and had not merged to form Ba Shan Tang.
As a charitable organization, Nan Shan Tang mainly provides relief to two types of people: one is the widowed widow (to promote the duty of chastity), and the other is the poor and impoverished literati (to earn fame and reputation).
But in years of great disaster and famine, Nan Shan Tang will also provide relief to the victims.
In this way, Du Xiaoshan is still a kind person.
Is that really the case? Haha.
As soon as the victims arrived, Du Xiaoshan took the opportunity to organize a donation activity and even invited a theater troupe to perform for charity. As for the disaster relief funds raised, the shareholders of Nanshan Hall shared some, the officials shared some, and some were kept for Nanshan Hall.
Less than 20% of administrative funds are actually used for disaster victims.
Ma Liu didn't know what was going on. He only knew that when he was about to starve to death and freeze to death, it was the food and cotton clothes given by Master Du that kept him alive.
Ma Liu was a soldier before and deserted.
It wasn't that he wanted to escape, but when the enemy came over, everyone suddenly found that the platoon leader was missing. Then several squad leaders also rubbed oil on their feet and ran away. They, the top soldiers, had no choice but to follow and then led their brother troops to run together.
The mountains and plains were filled with defeated troops.
Ma Liu fled for half a day. When he stopped, he found that his gun was gone, and he didn't know when he had thrown it away. He did not dare to return to the army, so he stole and begged all the way back to his hometown, only to encounter a once-in-a-century encounter.
flood.
After surviving in Tianjin, Ma Liu became a gangster. He dared to fight hard and secretly worked as a dog for Du Xiaoshan. He was very popular in Tianjin Nanshi.
Master Du is his savior. He will beat whoever Master Du asks him to hit. Whoever Master Du tells him to kill must die - this is Ma Liu's simple moral concept.
What's more, there is still money to take, a full 1,000 oceans!
Ma Liuxin was no match for foreign trade, so he buried the box containing the money on the outskirts of the city, only to take it out and run away after killing someone.
After everything was prepared, Ma Liu disguised himself as a fruit seller and stayed on the roadside for six days before finally seeing his target go out.
"Oh, I have a stomachache. You are busy while I look after the stall!" Ma Liu said to the shoe shiner next to him.
"Okay, you can go ahead." The shoe polisher agreed. When Ma Liuyi left, the man immediately stole a few apples and hid them in his arms, planning to take them home for his wife and children to eat at night.
The yellow sports car the target was riding in was obviously taking a detour, and Ma Liu was chasing after him like a dead dog. He was as tired as a dead dog, panting and complaining: "These cart pullers are all fucking rabbits, they run so fast!"
After chasing for about 40 minutes, the target finally stopped in front of a bungalow.
Ma Liu did not take action immediately because there were few people here and it was not convenient to escape. Also, his legs were so tired that he had to take a rest first.
"Whirring whirring!"
Ma Liu hid in the corner of the street, holding his knees with both hands, bending over and squatting down, panting like crazy.
A foreign couple came out of the small western-style building, chatted and laughed with the target, and then continued south in a yellow sports car.
"Still...still running!" As he was running, Ma Liu suddenly recalled his military career. At that time, he would run whenever there was a war, either chasing the enemy or being chased by the enemy. Every one of his comrades...
He is a long-distance runner.
After running for a while, the rickshaw finally slowed down due to the bustling market ahead.
Ma Liu felt that his opportunity had come.
…
Hou Qi was sitting on the roof of the building doing nothing. Unlike Ma Liu, who was so exhausted, he was so idle that his balls ached.
I remember how happy I was when I was a horse bandit, eating big mouthfuls of meat and drinking big bowls of wine. Damn it, Marshal Zhang suddenly showed up and led a new army to suppress bandits everywhere in Heilongjiang. Not to mention the superior strength of the army and the advanced weapons,
He actually used artillery so shamelessly.
There were only two to three hundred people under Hou Qi's command. They were bombarded by mountain artillery for half an hour, and the entire village was blown to pieces.
After the bombardment, not many people died, but the brothers were frightened. There was no way to fight, so they had to pack up their belongings at night and sneak away through the mountain trails.
It's a pity that the young marshal was too much of a thief and actually ambushed the troops at the foot of the mountain. Hou Qi led his brothers and rushed in.
After a burst of machine gun fire, forty or fifty horse bandits were killed in an instant. Hou Qi was so frightened that he fled into the woods. Relying on the dense forests in the northeast and his sharpshooting skills, he suppressed the entire platoon chasing him by himself, and finally fired all the bullets.
Finally captured.
The young marshal cherished his talent and did not kill him. Instead, he invited him to serve as a shooting instructor for the new army.
Hou Qi was forced to serve as a soldier for a year, and he really couldn't adapt to the strict military laws and regulations of the Marshal's new army. After violating military discipline one after another, he finally got his wish and left the army, and was recruited by Feng Yong as a bodyguard.
Today's task is too simple for Hou Qi.
Feng Yong asked him to shoot the British man in the leg, let alone the leg. Even if he was asked to hit the left egg of the target, he would never miss the right one.
Hou Qi looked at the clouds in the sky and suddenly thought of the white mountains and black waters of the Northeast. He didn't like Tianjin. It was like a big cage, locking people in and suffocating them. He wanted to go back to the Northeast, where he could run freely in the snowy forests and gallop around.
Be happy and happy.
Hou Qi saw a couple walking arm in arm on the street and couldn't help but exclaim: "Shameless! Hooking up in broad daylight."
After scolding him, he suddenly thought: I am already 32 years old, and it is time for me to find a wife to get married and have children. If someone kills me one day, at least I can still leave a legacy, and I can have the honor to see my parents in the underworld.
Father, mother!
Hou Qi's parents have been dead for almost twenty years. At that time, Japan and Russia were fighting in the Northeast. In order to eliminate spies, the Russians hid their marching route and killed their entire village. Hou Qi hid in a vegetable cellar before escaping.
Pass a tribulation.
He hated the Russians so much that he joined the anti-Russian team to work for the Japanese. It turned out that the Japanese were not good birds and bullied the Chinese even more harshly than the Russians. Hou Qi was so angry that he simply joined the Ma bandits as a green forest.
hero.
coming!
Hou Qi narrowed his eyes, his pupils shrank, and he picked up the rifle next to him, loaded it, and took aim.
…
Today is the weekend, the bustling streets are crowded with people, and the cries of vendors can be heard all the time.
Several rickshaws came running, and pedestrians gave way.
At this moment...
"boom!"
There was a gunshot.
This is Hou Qi shooting, accurately hitting the British doctor's calf.
"Bang bang bang!"
Three more gunshots were fired.
This was Ma Liu shooting, and his marksmanship was much inferior. Coupled with the poor accuracy of the pistol, the first shot flew away, and a stray bullet hit the butt of an unlucky man on the street. He could no longer care about Du Xiaoshan.
Warning, the second shot hit Zhou Hexuan's shoulder, and then he pulled the trigger again.
"Sir, be careful!" Sun Yongzhen jumped out of the rickshaw and rushed toward Zhou Hexuan.
The last shot hit Sun Yongzhen in the back.
"Mom, there are still people fishing in troubled waters!" Hou Qi saw clearly from the rooftop. He threw away the rifle and a photo, then quickly went downstairs and chased Ma Liu in the direction of his escape.
