Wang Pu in the late Ming Dynasty

Hong Xiaohan

still closed his eyes and was in a coma, he would sneer when he was high, and he would draw a knife to stab, Hong Xiaohan was horrified and shouted: "Don't hurt me, I, I'll go down." Then one of them jumped off the horse obediently, but his legs and feet were tied firmly, and he could not stand on his feet, so he fell and fell on his head

"I can't get up. Hong Xiaohan was helpless, so he had to plead with Gao Shihui again: "Can you pull me up?" "

Gao Shi would groan slightly, stepped forward with a knife, and pointed the tip of the knife at one of his eyes, and immediately stabbed Hong Xiaohan's eye. Where did the little boy endure such torture, and the screams resounded through the mountain stream.

"Don't argue, or I'll break your hamstrings, you know, if you pick your hamstrings, your martial arts will be useless. "Gao Shi will be proud.

"Woooooooo Hong Xiaohan gritted his teeth and whimpered lowly, I don't know if it was because of pain, hatred, or both.

"Get in. "When he is high, he will hold a knife in one hand and pull the rope tied to Hong Xiaohan's feet with the other, and hold it into the mountain temple little by little like maggots, but there is a hole inside, a waterfall hangs down from the stone cliff above his head, hitting the stone and flying water, and the mist is swirling. When it is high, it will be very satisfied, and the sound of this waterfall can drown out the sound of talking, which is extremely convenient for torture.

"Heh, heh, heh," Gao Shihui was not young, from the gate to the kitchen by the waterfall, he supported Hong Xiaohan all the way, and he was already panting like a cow. He abandoned Hong Xiaohan on the threshold, and when he entered the kitchen, he saw that there was still a lot of firewood, and thought: With such a big pot and so much firewood, it is estimated that there is more than one monk in the temple, just cooking millet porridge to eat.

Thinking of millet porridge, this woke up to the fact that he had not eaten since the afternoon, and in the evening, the large bags of beans had been soaked in sweat medicine, and he naturally would not eat them. Fasting and staying up all night to hurry, after some tossing, I was hungry at this time, dizzy and unbearable, and secretly complained: "I didn't think about it, I knew I should bring some pastries, but I didn't think of it." "

Hong Xiaohan was on the ground, and the only remaining eye swept around, trying to find a way to save himself, but unfortunately this mountain temple had no half of the iron except for a cauldron. If you look at the waterfall again, there must be a lake under the stone platform next to the waterfall, and if you roll over it, you can roll down this stone platform into the lake. I don't know whether the lake is deep or shallow, if it is too deep, he will only drown if his hands and feet are tied, and if it is too shallow, he may not roll down and fall to his death. After thinking about it, I still didn't dare to take the risk.

"What do you see, hum, don't have any crooked ideas, I can guess what you want, boy, accept your fate." "When he was high, his mouth would be broken endlessly, and he would keep poking the flint in his hand, but the kitchen of this mountain temple was built by the waterfall, and the firewood was inevitably damp, and the flint could not catch fire in the middle of the fire.

"Tsk, this, okay. When he was high, he glanced at Hong Xiaohan, who was half of his body exposed behind the threshold, and saw that the kid's coat was cotton, so he cautiously walked over, bowed down, and slashed Hong Xiaohan's sleeve with a knife, Hong Xiaohan was frightened, screamed, and kicked his legs back again and again.

"Hmph. Gao Shi would sneer, and he had a piece of cloth in his hand, but it was torn off Hong Xiaohan's sleeve. Ignoring the frightened Hong Xiaohan, he turned around and went back to light the fire.

Use cotton cloth as an introduction, it is easy to light firewood, this water is easy to obtain, wash rice and boil, it has been a busy work for half an hour, to eat half full, when it is high, it will put down the dishes and chopsticks, get up from the table, and step out of the kitchen with elegant and elegant steps, looking down with his hands, seeing that Hong Xiaohan is already bleeding all over the place, his breath is not smooth, and there is a bloody hole in his eyeballs, like a black spider crawling, accompanied by convulsions It is lifelike, and the black blood is like a spider web scattered all over the body. It's just the right thing to do, isn't this just a little worm that fell into a snare?

"Hehe, where is the

gold hidden, you little baby, where can you keep such a splash of wealth, since you have no blessings, it is better to let my uncle and I consume it for you. "

"What, what do you say. Hong Xiaohan looked confused and said in a daze.

"Hey, I didn't want to punish you, but you always have to pretend to be innocent and deceive, good can be the law, evil can be a warning, my tall and good man has to punish you for being a little thief, hum. "When it comes to pride, when he is high, he will shrug his shoulders with a cold laugh.

"Devil, you are a devil. At this moment, Hong Xiaohan's only remaining eye was even more frightened, and his legs kicked forward vigorously, just trying to get farther away from this evil ghost.

"You little thief, how dare you spew blood, when your father was alive, the family was only a family of five or six acres of land, and it was not much stronger than the broken settlement, where did you get the gold, how many people you killed for this gold, and now this is retribution. Gao Shi would say, pointing to his eyes.

"I, I don't. Hong Xiaohan suddenly felt weak and forced himself to distinguish.

"Sure enough. Gao Shihui is old and wide, and suddenly looked at his eyebrows, and said: "You tell me the location where the gold is buried, and I will not kill you for a while, because I am afraid that you will lie and lie to me, I will first dig out the gold according to the position you said. "

"I don't

have gold, I don't know what you're talking about. "

"You listen to me, I'll

abolish one of your legs now, and you tell me where the gold is hidden, and if I can't find the gold, I'll come back, and I'll scrap your other leg, and we'll start over and do it all over again, and so on, oh, then your sins are comparable to Ling Chi, and I'm adding to your sins for no reason, isn't that good." If you don't lie to me, I will take the gold and take your mother away and fly away, how can I not come back to you, when the time comes, whether you live or die, it all depends on your own life, so that you can have the best of both worlds, you say, what about my charter. "

"You, you. Hearing that he was going to abolish one of his legs, Hong Xiaohan couldn't speak neatly in horror.

"Well, it seems that you are really not stupid, this is really a bit winding, you will understand as soon as you hear it, if you are a good man, just order it, don't give me a second time. Gao Shihui was talking, pulling out the knife and slicing Hong Xiaohan's left hind heel, Hong Xiaohan's left foot tendon was broken, and he screamed miserably, and the sound disturbed the surrounding birds and beasts, the mountains and forests were squirming, and there were bursts of strange sounds.

"Tell me. "When you are high, you will still be elegant and easy-going.

"Bastard, brute, old thief, don't die, you just flee to the edge of the sky, and I will catch up with you, chop you into pulp. Hong Xiaohan was completely hysterical.

"Okay, this is a seed, I will give you a chance, tell me where the gold is, I will leave you a piece of silver where I buried the gold, you use it as a coil to chase me, fate sometimes must be there, fate is not forced at all times, see if your life is good, or my life is good. "The so-called reluctant child can't trap the wolf, in order to get out of the gold, when he is high, he will be far-sighted, and he will naturally give up the silver, his promise is categorical, and his eyes are full of perseverance and sincerity.

After calming down quickly, Hong Xiaohan was discouraged, nodded tearfully, he had no choice, and squeezed out a sentence between his teeth: "Take the pen, I'll draw it for you." "

Snatched this treasure map of the temporary charcoal painting on the window paper from Hong Xiaohan's hand, looked at it carefully and put it in his arms, asked a few words, and was about to stride out of the mountain temple, but he heard a noisy sound of horses' hooves at the gate in front of the temple, and secretly shouted that it was not good, what is going on, listening to this sound seems to be the official army coming, the so-called thief is like a comb, and the soldier is like washing, if the official army falsely accuses him of being a thief, he will be speechless, after all, for no reason he caught a teenager and hid in this temple to torture him, and anyone should be suspicious.

Therefore, he pulled out his knife and stabbed Hong Xiaohan on the ground, but Hong Xiaohan was faster than him, and he had already kicked it hard, right in his lower abdomen, and when he was high, he was very old, and he was caught off guard by this kick, and he took a

few steps back, his face was pale, Hong Xiaohan took this opportunity to roll on the ground continuously, and in an instant, he arrived at the stone platform, and buried himself in the waterfall with a twist, and when he was high here, he would catch up, only to see a dark shadow in the waterfall falling, and he was submerged in the abyss of the black hole. He didn't have time to think about it, so he took a set of gourd-shaped iron bumps with wooden handles from the package, which was a grenade that his master bought from the Shenjia Battalion, commonly known as a gourd bomb, and went to the kitchen stove to find a piece of charcoal that had not been extinguished, and unscrewed off the delicate iron lid on the wooden handle, but it turned out that the wooden handle was hollow, and there was a thick lead inside, which made a noise when he lit the fire, and he had never used this thing, and he didn't know how long the lead would burst, so he hurriedly threw it into the abyss, hoping that this time he would blow the kid to death.

When he looked up, in the moonlight late at night, several people were coming along the corridor to this side, but the leader was familiar, and the figure was the old man he drove away from the temple. Just as he was annoyed, there was an ethereal loud sound in the abyss, and it was like a fire bolt blasting in his ears. The old man in front of him was frightened and fell to the ground, and several people behind him also shouted, turned around and fled.

Gao Shi will sneer, and dare not stay, hurriedly climb to the back door mountain, this road is mostly based on boulders, the stones have been very wet for many years, that is moss everywhere, even the two horses can not take care of, he can only climb out with his hands and feet, and when he turns around, he sees that the two horses did not keep up, and he is fanning his mane below, he gritted his teeth, if there are no horses, how to go back, the distance is dozens of miles, he can't walk at this age.

Secretly scolded the monks in the temple for not being a thing, greedy for sesame oil money, and did not properly repair the mountain road at the back door. He listened carefully to the movement in the temple and heard someone shouting: "This dog is only powerful with firearms, and the officers and soldiers are so hateful, if he doesn't have firearms, I will screw him to death with one hand." "

It turned out that they were not official soldiers, so it was just right, so I went to catch up with my convoy and asked the people from the Shenjia Battalion to clean them up. When he was high, he would think, he had no horses, so he could only go to join the convoy, Jin Zi didn't think he would slip away with long legs, so he didn't have to be in a hurry, if the people in the convoy asked them why they fell asleep, they would say that Hong Xiaohan was a thief army spy and secretly poisoned the beans.

"There is a black hole outside, I'm afraid there is an ambush, don't chase it, there are two horses, just bring it back." "The person who is complaining in the temple has a knife target about a foot long on his left cheek, which is Lao Cai, a fortune teller in Xianghe County in the past, and now he is one of the thieves. Yesterday, hit the Shenjia battalion suddenly retreated, according to legend, it was the new Zhang Tianshi cast a spell to make a contribution, the so-called new people for the old people, the old people were in tears, he looked at the new people very upset, he invited himself out of the city to collect property, bumped into a team of people and horses who seemed to be Zhuang Ding camping on the side of the road, they killed it, but a face, the crowd scattered and fled, caught a live mouth and interrogated only to know, it turned out to be the nearby Wucai County Gao Jiaxiao Shenjia Battalion of two cars of fresh vegetables and fruits, these fools did not know that the Shenjia Battalion had withdrawn, so they rushed in, and he was cheap, he said that the Gao family was hateful, and went to Wucai County to cover up the past, and arrested a few more people to make puppets。

"The master is right, we are easy to kill, beat away the scouts of the Shenjia Battalion, and take their two horses. The subordinates behind him greeted him.

"Hmm. Lao Cai was very satisfied, and along the way he caught fifteen young people, all of whom could be made into puppets, and also met an old man, who said that there was a companion in this temple who was caught by the local gentry and was about to be sent to the official. I want to be a good man who runs thousands of miles, so he took a few people, and came to this temple with Lao Suo to see, just entered the temple, and listened to the sound of the mountain in the backyard, and bluffed them into the urine, Lao Cai's group are all old thieves, and they have seen the sharpness of the firearms of the Shenjia battalion, and they heard the sound of firearms, but they hated their father and mother for giving birth to two legs, and they ran so that they called a neat rope, or Lao Cai was the leader, Xu is usually pay attention to nourishing qi, and at this time the brain is clear, and scolded angrily:" You run eggs, no matter how powerful the firearm is, you can only shoot one shot, he only has one person, and he can't carry much firearms. There are many of us, so there is no need to be afraid of him. Only then did the rest of the crowd come back to their senses, and they turned their heads and trembled again. Sure enough, the man fled from the back mountain, but there was a pool of blood on the ground by the waterfall, as if someone had fallen into the lake under the waterfall, and the old man said that the lake was not deep, and he could not say that the person was still alive. So Lao Cai ordered someone to go down to search and rescue.

Hong Xiaohan scooped him up, and everyone worked together to carry him up the hillside and put him on the kitchen table, which was already as much as gold paper, and Lao Cai was barely a wandering magician, so he personally held a torch and went to the mountains overnight to pick herbs, and boiled him regardless of it. It's really a shame that Hong Xiaohan has been working hard since he was a child, and his family is physically strong, but he was actually saved by this unruly wild recipe.

At noon the next day, Hong Xiaohan woke up, his eyes were full of red fire, but he kept muttering: "I want revenge." Raising his eyes, a rag on the top of his head, as if writing a Buddhist scripture, a stirring spirit to wake up is a prayer flag, his body undulated and swayed, it turned out to be on a stretcher, carried away, he raised his hand to tear off the prayer flag, there was no shade cloth, the scorching sun was full of light, and he was dizzy.

"Little ghost, it's easy for you to take revenge, just follow us. But someone next to him saw that he was awake, so he smiled and persuaded him.

"Where am I. "

"Xianghe, it's almost there. "
