Chapter 111 [Selling Your Body to Bury Your Father] (1)
"Hey! It's interesting. You kid didn't ask me. In Heqing Town, whoever sets up a stall to sell goods in the market is not allowed to pay me some money. You actually dare to ask me for money. I think you are a foreigner.
If you don't understand the rules, I won't blame you today. Leave the knife and leave, but I promise to embarrass you."
Hu Xiaotian is so depressed. I have been selling knives for a long time, but the business has not been completed. You can't come here early or late, but you come here just when I'm leaving. You just deliberately want to blackmail me. I really thought that the tiger would be defeated by the dog.
What a bully! He looked at the opponent, and there were four of them including Mao San. Although Hu Xiaotian was not good at martial arts, he had some tips from Murong Feiyan, so he should still have some chance of winning against these rogues. Not to mention that he was like this
The short knife can cut iron as hard as mud, and he is not afraid of a real fight. Hu Xiaotian said: "This eldest brother, everyone is in trouble. We are all brothers in the world. I hope that some high-minded people will let me go. If I really force my brother to
When we reach the end of the road, everyone will not look good."
Mao San laughed and said to the people around him: "Brothers, did you hear that? He threatened me, threatened me!"
Hu Xiaotian also laughed: "Brother, you are so powerful in numbers, how can I threaten you? I have always dared to do things and speak out..." Before he could finish his words, he raised his left fist and hit him hard.
Above Mao San's jaw, Hu Xiaotian fantasized about knocking the opponent down with one punch, but it backfired. Mao San had a big head and a thick neck. Hu Xiaotian's full blow made him only tilt his head back, but did not fall.
Hu Xiaotian reacted very quickly and had already followed up with the second blow, hitting Mao San's vagina with his knee. This finally worked. Mao San screamed and let go of Hu Xiaotian's arm. He covered his crotch with both hands and squatted down. His
Upon seeing this, the three companions hurriedly surrounded him.
Hu Xiaotian had already taken the road and ran out of the market with the dagger in hand. In the past, Hu Xiaotian would never have gotten into such big trouble because of a dagger. Of course he understood that a good man should not suffer the immediate consequences, but this dagger had already
It was the most valuable item on his person. He hoped to sell the dagger in exchange for silver. In this way, he could collect enough expenses for the return trip and buy horses. Only in this way could he return to the capital in the shortest possible time. It can be said that now this dagger has become
The key to saving the Hu family.
When running wildly, the friction of blood blisters on the soles of the feet caused excruciating pain. But when a person is in a desperate situation, his endurance will be stronger than ever before. Hu Xiaotian's potential has been fully stimulated. He threw away the four rogues and Mao San at an astonishing speed.
He bullied the market in this area. There were far more than these three accomplices. It didn't take long for his companions to outflank him from the front. When Hu Xiaotian saw that the road ahead was blocked, he could only turn around and escape to the right. Not long after running to the right, there was
The horse market is very small, with only two or three stables. After rushing out of the horse market, there is no hiding place in front. He heard the shouts of Mao San's gang. Hu Xiaotian saw only a child kneeling in front of him.
There, there was a torn mat on the ground. I didn't know what was covered under the mat. Hu Xiaotian panicked and came to the child. He whispered: "Little brother, please help me!" He directly opened the torn mat and lay down in it.
After lying down, he discovered that there was another person lying under the mat. Hu Xiaotian whispered: "Borrow the light, borrow the light..." and patted the other person's body gently. Only then did he realize that the person had been dead for a long time. Hu Xiaotian was shocked. At this time, he remembered
The child had a straw mark stuck on his head. He must have sold himself to bury his father. Hu Xiaotian was so shocked that he almost sat up.
At this time, Mao San's gang had already caught up. But the child was heard crying miserably: "Father! Mother, you died so miserably..."
Mao San rushed here holding his crotch and found that Hu Xiaotian was missing. He looked at the child and said, "Boy, did you see a black-faced man escaping from here?"
The child cried and said: "Uncle, please take pity on me and help me bury my parents. I will serve you all my life."
Mao San snorted: "Get out of here, damn, you're putting two dead people here. I feel like today is so unlucky, so get away quickly, let me see you, and I'll kill you too." The others
The gangsters didn't find Hu Xiaotian either, and each one returned disappointed. Mao San cursed and turned back, came to the child, raised his foot and kicked the body.
Unexpectedly, his actions angered the child, and he rushed forward desperately: "You insult my father, I will fight with you!" He hugged Mao San's thigh and gave him a hard bite, which made Mao San scream!
, raised his palm the size of a cattail fan and slapped the boy on the face, causing half of the boy's face to swell.
Seeing such a scene, the passers-by felt sympathy in their hearts, but they were too angry and dared not speak out, so they all avoided. Everyone among the locals knew how powerful Mao San was and did not dare to provoke them.
When Hu Xiaotian heard this situation, he could no longer hold back his anger. When he saw Mao San's big foot moving in front of him, he raised the short knife in his hand and stabbed it in hard. This short knife was a sharp weapon given by Hogg.
, originally cutting iron like clay, and Hu Xiaotian swung it with all his strength, he raised the knife and pierced Mao San's big foot.
Mao San never expected that the dead body on the ground would suddenly get up. He thought it was a fake corpse and was so frightened that his companions fled in all directions. Only after seeing clearly that it was Hu Xiaotian did they gather together again.
Hu Xiaotian had already pulled out the short knife, put the tip of the knife against Mao San's neck, and sneered: "You beast, you actually attack a child, do you still have humanity?"
Mao San screamed: "Brothers, come on, chop him..." Before he finished speaking, Hu Xiaotian hugged his neck and stabbed his shoulder with a knife. Mao San screamed in pain like a pig,
At this time, he was completely frightened, and said in a trembling voice: "This big brother... I... Mao San is blind to Taishan, please show mercy."
Hu Xiaotian sneered and said: "You know you are afraid now? Unfortunately it is too late." He said to the little boy: "Little brother, come to my side." He was afraid that Mao San's accomplices would catch the child and use it to blackmail him.
.
Mao Sandao: "What do you want...what do you really want?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Ask your brother to find a carriage for me. Go now."
Mao San waved his hand hurriedly, and the horse market was on the side. Not long after, the gangsters brought a carriage. Hu Xiaotian asked them to carry the corpse on the ground onto the carriage, and then said: "All of you face
Stand against the wall and take off your pants!"
When the thugs hesitated for a moment, Hu Xiaotian stabbed Mao San in the shoulder again. Mao San was so frightened that he yelled: "Hurry up... do what big brother said, do you really want to kill me..."
A group of gangsters took off their pants, and Hu Xiaotian asked them to throw them over one by one. The little boy ran over and picked up all the pants. Hu Xiaotian asked him to get in the car first, and then escorted Mao San to the carriage with them.
The little boy grabbed the reins of the horse, shouted, and the carriage ran wildly out of the town. It ran ten miles outside the town and came to a deserted field. Hu Xiaotian just asked Mao San to get off, and before leaving, he did not forget to tell this guy
All his belongings were searched, and more than ten taels of silver were found, as well as a gold and jade pendant.
Seeing Mao San's figure become a small black dot in his field of vision, Hu Xiaotian just arrived in front of the carriage. The little boy raised his head and looked at him, with knowing smiles on their faces at the same time.
Hu Xiaotian said: "What's your name? How old are you?"
The little boy said: "My name is Gao Yuan, I am twelve years old."
Hu Xiaotian nodded, turned around and looked at the body in the car: "Is he your father?" This sentence touched Gao Yuan's sadness, and the child couldn't help but shed tears again: "Well, my father was beaten to death."
Hu Xiaotian sighed, patted his shoulder and said, "Don't cry, we have money now. When we get to the town ahead, we can buy a coffin and bury your father properly."
Hu Xiaotian kept his word and bought a thin coffin in the market town he passed by to help Gao Yuan bury his father. The pendant he snatched was sold at a pawn shop for a good price, which was exchanged for a full seventy taels of silver. This can be regarded as a
What a surprise. Hu Xiaotian gave half of the money he had to Gao Yuan and asked him to take the money to seek refuge with his relatives. However, he never expected that Gao Yuan had no relatives at home, otherwise he would not have ended up selling himself on the streets to bury his father.
Because Hu Xiaotian buried his father for him, Gao Yuan decided that he would follow Hu Xiaotian throughout his life to repay his kindness. Although Hu Xiaotian did not think that the child owed him anything, but seeing that he was smart and smart, he felt pity for the child who was lonely and helpless.
I agreed, so I agreed. After all, it was a long journey to Kangdu, so it would be nice to have a companion by my side to talk to.
Facts have proved that Hu Xiaotian's decision is extremely wise and correct. Although Gao Yuan is only twelve years old, he has been traveling around with his father since he was a child. His experience in the world is even richer than that of Hu Xiaotian. This child is not only smart but also hard-working, and he is eager to win in everything.
He went to do it and arranged Hu Xiaotian's food, clothing, housing and transportation properly along the way, saving Hu Xiaotian a lot of trouble.
Strange to say, Hu Xiaotian's journey has gone much smoother since Gao Yuan came to his side. He kept hearing news about the Xichuan rebellion along the way. From the rumors he heard, it can be initially concluded that the eldest prince Long Yelin has officially succeeded to the throne.
Emperor Long Xuan'en abdicated and became the Supreme Emperor to enjoy his old age. As for the unlucky Prince Long Yeqing, he was accused of plotting to usurp the throne and intending to kill the king, and was sentenced to death in Cheng'en Mansion. Li Tianheng's separatist rule was tantamount to giving
Long Yeqing's accusation of rebellion adds conclusive evidence.
Although the new emperor is in power, he still has not officially ascended the throne. It is said that after the new emperor ascends the throne, there will be a general amnesty. Before the amnesty, the Dakang Dynasty faced a bloody reshuffle. The rebellion of the Li family in Xichuan not only challenged the imperial power
The dissatisfaction with the replacement is also a helpless act of self-preservation. If Li Tianheng does not resist, as a staunch supporter of the former crown prince Long Yeqing, he will definitely be the first target of the new emperor's elimination.
