Chapter 28 The Bandit's Luggage
When he asked about the location of the kitchen, he led the big black dog to the kitchen and tied it to the pillar. Hu Fei planned to find a basin of water to pour the dog to death. It is said that when killing a dog, he only needs to pour a bowl of water on the dog's nose, and the dog will be choked to death. The dog meat without bloodletting will be eaten before it can be replenished.
Niu Laocai looked at Hu Fei with a dazed tongue and led his big black dog to the kitchen. He opened his mouth to say something, but he still didn't say it. Finally, he sighed and went back to the main hall to sit. The knowledgeable old man knew that something big would happen tonight, so he didn't have to want to sleep.
A bowl of water choked Niu Laocai to death. When he was busy cutting the skin and boiling water, Ji Jinbiao and Yang Jinsheng, who were guarding the village entrance, came back with people. The battle at the entrance of the village was over. In this battle, eleven bandits were killed, thirteen prisoners were captured, ten mules and horses were seized, and several Western medicines were seized.
Hu Fei went to the yard to count the seized medicines, and the batch obtained by beating the boss to death. No matter how much I got one, I could see ten cars of Western medicine. From beginning to end, I always said that there were ten cars of Western medicine. This pile could fill three large cars and it was overwhelming. Where did the remaining half go?
Hu Fei asked Yang Jinsheng and Ji Jinbiao, is anyone running over from the entrance of the village you guarded? Both of them shook their heads and said that this was absolutely true. Although they came here now, there were still people left at the entrance of the village, and it was basically impossible for the bandits to get away with it. The two of them gave the troops the order: No one is allowed to leave the village tonight.
In order to confirm his guess, Hu Fei asked Niu Jinxing to recognize people among the bandits who were beaten to death and captured to see if there was a third child. It was easy to identify living people, and it would be a bit embarrassing to find someone from the pile of dead people. However, Niu Jinxing had no complaints about this. Not only did he have no complaints, he was also very happy. If Hu Fei could give him a living, he still had value and had a chance to survive!
Being able to live is the biggest joy. People feel refreshed when they are happy. After checking, the second child immediately went over the dead with enthusiasm. He carefully distinguished each person's face and looked at all eleven dead bodies twice. The second child finally came to the conclusion that he was most reluctant to see: the third child was not dead, and that guy ran away!
Has the person run away? Hu Fei frowned. The fragrance had already floated out of the kitchen. He was really reluctant to let the pot of stewed dog meat. After thinking about it, Hu Fei thought he should have a good chat with Niu Laocai, the owner of the house.
Hu Fei knew that Niu Laocai was staying in the main hall, and he did not ask someone to report it. He took Yuan Fang, Ji Jinbiao and others directly into the main hall of the Niu family.
Niu Laocai was sitting on the middle-level Grand Master's chair reading a book, but was actually studying his account book. When he saw Hu Fei leading a group of people in, he quickly stood up. Hu Fei didn't say anything useless, and told Niu Laocai directly: "Take me to the room where the bandits lived." After saying that, he turned around and left. Niu Laocai was stunned for a moment and hadn't reacted yet. Yuan Fang and Ji Jinbiao came up, one on the left and one on the right, and he was walking out.
At this point, even if Niu Laocai felt dissatisfied, he had to cooperate with him for the fate of his whole family. Isn’t it just to check a few rooms, check it.
"These are the ones that have lived in." Niu Laocai pointed out the bungalows in front of him to Hu Fei, "I'll take them..."
Hu Fei waved his hand and rushed over from behind him, more than twenty soldiers like wolves and tigers kicked open the door and started rummaging through the cabinets when he entered. Niu Laocai originally wanted to say that he was using the key to open the door, but now he saw that he didn't have to be busy. The door lock of this room was installed in the New Year's Eve. It's three years before, so it's time to replace it with a new one.
There were a slam in the room, and Niu Laocai couldn't help but think that he didn't know how many furniture in these rooms could be left. The furniture is durable, so I guess it's still possible to use it if you repair it?
After a while, a soldier ran out to report: No medicine was found! Hu Fei looked at Niu Laocai happily, "Old man, did the bandits you took in with you when they came with them? They were the kind of luggage that was a large number. Did they take away their luggage when they left?"
The bandit I took in? Niu Laocai's face jumped twice, but he did not defend himself. He knew in his heart that if these soldiers could reason, they would not break into their homes in the middle of the night and killed their big black dog to stew them.
The old man carefully recalled the details of the bandits when they came, but he really didn't have much impression of it. At that time, he was just talking with the three leaders, and didn't pay much attention to whether the bandits brought their luggage. The fact is that when the old man saw the three leaders, he felt panicked. What good things can a bandits get when they enter the house? He was just thinking about how to deal with the bandits so that their whole family could escape the disaster. He really didn't pay attention to whether the bandits brought their luggage.
Fortunately, it was not the old man who received the bandits at that time. Niu Laocai turned his head and saw another person involved, "Lai Fu, come here."
A man wearing a melon-skin hat and a long robe and a down-eyed look came over. Just like this, he was just a choreographer.
"Sir, this is my butler Lai Fu. He is responsible for receiving the bandits throughout the journey. Lai Fu, did the bandits bring their luggage when they came? Did they leave empty-handed or took their luggage away? Think about it carefully, this is a major military operation, but it is not careless. The officers must listen to the truth." Niu Laocai said a few words to the butler Lai Fu.
Did Lai Fu dare to resist? He didn't dare. So, the butler of the landlord had to rack his brains to recall the details of the bandits when they came. Fortunately, it was not particularly difficult to recall whether the bandits brought large luggage.
Lai Fu remembered, "Those people seemed to have brought their luggage. Yes, except for the three-headed leader, everyone else carried bags, and the animals also carried bags. The bags were ridges and corners, and I don't know what they were carrying. Some of them carried bags when they left, but it seemed that there were not as many when they came."
"What does it mean that there is no more people who have come? Let's do not talk nonsense! Our family is thrifty, filial piety, and rituals. When will we take other people's things?"
Niu Laocai scolded her, and Lai Fu was timid and did not dare to say anything. Hu Fei had no intention of upholding justice for Lai Fu, but what this kid said just now still attracted his high attention. He brought a lot of luggage when he came and took less things when he left? That is, some of the medicines were left at Niu Laocai's house. It is estimated that Niu Laocai knew about this, otherwise Lai Fu would not dare to say it out.
Hu Fei had a judgment in his mind and looked around the rooms. Where is this and where is it? What is it for and what is it for?
Diagonally opposite the guest room are several sheds with roofs and walls. A faint smell of smell comes. It seems that there is the legendary livestock shed.
