Chapter 14 Intrigue(1/2)
Although Nemo and I have dark skin and yellow skin, it does not affect our friendship with each other, and my father cannot hide his admiration for Nemo.
One time, my father went out to settle accounts. When he returned, it was almost dusk. A black child ran towards him. He passed by his father. The father just said that the children were chasing him and didn't pay attention. Unexpectedly, just a few steps away, the black child
The child ran back again, took the wallet and said to his father: "Sir, your wallet fell." The father took the wallet, but before he could say thank you, the child ran away.
The father opened his wallet and found that there was ten pounds missing from it. He couldn't help but become interested in this black child. The fact that he could take the wallet out of the pocket of his father, an old man, in the moment he passed by, showed that this black child was not
Simple. The father followed the child not far or near, and even followed him to the door of his own house.
The black child was holding up ten pounds and begging Anne: "Doctor, my mother has a serious fever. Please go to the doctor and save her. I have money."
Anne said softly: "It's already dark, I don't dare to go out alone. Your mother has a fever, it's not very serious. I can go there tomorrow." Then her father suddenly understood. He walked in the door and said to Anne: "I'll accompany you."
You go ahead." When the black child saw it, he realized that he had stolen the doctor's husband. He couldn't help feeling ashamed and bowed deeply to his father: "Sir, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have stolen your ten pounds. Mother Dashu
I was sick and we had no money for medical treatment. I went to three hospitals, but the doctors there refused to see me even if they knew I had no money. I beg you, let Dr. Annie go, otherwise Dashu will die. I am willing to do it because of my
I will bear any consequences for theft, as long as I can save Dashu."
When her father came back, Annie was naturally no longer afraid, and accompanied by her father, they went to the shack where the black children lived. His mother, Dashu, had lung fire, coughing non-stop, and had a high fever and was in coma. The mining community was worried that her disease would be contagious and put her in a coma.
She was kicked out without even giving her a fortune. Not only did Dashu get sick, she even lost her job.
Anne gave Dashu an injection and prescribed some herbal medicines. Dashu's body temperature dropped and she gradually recovered.
This black child is naturally Nemo. Whenever he talks about Nemo, his father praises him very much, saying that he seeks medical treatment for his mother as an act of filial piety; that he dares to take risks as an act of bravery; that he is skilled in stealing as an act of wisdom; that he steals without being greedy.
, is for righteousness; timely admission of mistakes is for trust. Anne also liked Nemo surprisingly, and told me to take more care of this black child.
So every time I went out hunting, I would call Nemo. Nemo's knife skills were superb. He could kill and skin a cow or a pig cleanly in a matter of seconds. It was impressive. My father had experienced Nemo's knife.
After he succeeded, he praised him as a reborn scumbag.
Nemo also wanted to learn to shoot, but when he picked up the gun, he was not as calm as picking up the knife. He was a lot more agitated. I thought he was not a shooter. Nemo was very upset. In fact, I figured it out later.
, it’s not that Nemo’s marksmanship is poor, it’s just that we have different talents.
Every time I hunt, I give most of the prey to Nemo. Many times, I only bring one or two birds home. These prey improve the life of Nemo's family. Dashu is full of gratitude to us. As a
My friend, Nemo has never thought of any embarrassment in taking away my prey. He just often takes out one or two bullets and gives them to me when I run out of bullets. I believe that these few bullets must be Nemo's.
Got it with all my heart.
Nemo and I were very happy to meet each other in the city, but when he heard that I asked Nemo to steal Luna, Nemo shook his head like a rattle, "Brother Chong, no, I have stolen Mr. Shen before. Mr. Shen forgave me and said that I did it as a last resort and that I would never steal again."
I nodded Nemo's head hard and said, "When will your brain start to work?"
Nemo rolled his eyes at me, frowned and said, "You just can't steal."
I was thinking about how to convince this black boy, "Of course strangers can't steal. The person I asked you to steal is not a stranger. Do you know who she is?"
"who?"
"My wife."
"Ah, my future sister-in-law?"
"Of course, so to be precise, it's a joke between the two of us, do you understand?"
Nemo's brain finally came to his senses, "Brother Bug, if you say so, I will understand."
"As long as you understand, go ahead."
Nemo agreed and quickly chased Luna.
Nemo is really a genius. Being a thief in this life is simply a waste. I looked at him from a distance, but he just passed by Luna and staggered back.
I can't help but sigh, maybe God is fair, he gives everyone a talent, but few people can use their talent to the extreme.
My father once said that when he was a naval officer in China, he heard someone talk about the legend of a robber at that time.
The thief's surname was Li, and he was the third in the family. People at that time called him Li San. Because he was as light as a swallow, people in the world called him Swallow Li San.
This Li San was originally from Xianxian County, Hebei Province. He practiced martial arts since he was a child, and was especially good at light weight kung fu. He could climb trees on walls with ease. When he was 19 years old, Li San followed the Wuqiao Acrobatic Troupe to Luoyang to perform in the arena. Unexpectedly, the class leader lost a A piece of jade was suspected to be stolen by Li San, so he kicked Li San out of the acrobatic class in anger. Living in Luoyang, without any relatives, Li San really started stealing in order to make a living. Although Li San He is a thief, but he has set several rules for himself. First, he does not steal from the poor, but only steals from high-ranking officials. Second, in order to show that people do not do secret things, he will leave a note to identify himself every time he steals. Third, the stolen property He was never self-absorbed, and mostly helped the poor, thus earning a reputation as a thieves.
Once, Li San saw Bai Jianwu, the police commander of Luoyang, bullying an elderly man on the street. He was filled with indignation. That night, he sneaked into Bai Jianwu's house, stole his pistol, and left a note, "Steal." The treasure is Swallow Li Sanye!" Bai Jianwu saw this note only in the early morning. He was angry and even frightened. He was also afraid of losing face if it spread out, so he swallowed his anger and refused to pursue any further investigation.
Seeing that Bai Jianwu did not dare to speak out, Li San became even more unscrupulous. He sneaked into the houses of officials and wealthy people one after another to steal treasures, and even left blatant notes. After selling the stolen treasures, some of them were given to the poor, and some of them were squandered. It wasn't until too many people were offended that the police started arresting them everywhere.
It is said that Yanzi Li San went to the Shaolin Temple incognito to escape pursuit.
This Li San relied on his own lightness skills and talent for stealing, and he really became famous. Even though he disappeared, the story of Swallow Li San is still circulating in the world. Some people speculate that it is the "Swallow Li San" who became famous. It was so big that some big thieves also took the name Li San.
Looking at Nemo, I couldn't help but marvel at Nemo's talent. He was born as a poor boy with a low status, but God was not partial and gave him superb sword skills and the ability to steal stars.
He did not seek fame and fortune, and his life was still poor. His greatest happiness was just to hunt with me. After catching prey, he would show off his sword skills a little bit. As for stealing skills, he never used them, not counting this.
I only took action twice. From this, I admired my father's influence on this black boy even more. He actually taught such a wild boy to become an old master, with a pure heart and full of morality. Whenever I came up with an idea, he was the first to think of it.
It's the old master's stuff.
If you ask me, my father might as well stop growing vegetables and become a private school teacher.
Just as I was thinking about it, Nemo had already walked up to me, holding Luna's wallet in his hand. Luna was wearing red, and the wallet was also red. I was so happy that I stretched out my hand to take it and opened it. Nemo asked:
"Brother Chongzi, are you sure it's not for money?"
I looked at the contents inside and replied: "Of course".
"Why do I feel like your eyes are about to fly out?"
"Have it?"
"Yes, absolutely yes, they all emit green light."
"Pull it down, I'm just getting my things back." As I said that, I took out a bracelet from my wallet and waved it in front of Nemo.
"You said it wasn't stealing. You didn't steal the money, but the jewelry." Nemo muttered.
"Tch, this is just something from a stall. It's not worth a lot of money. I just can't stand this girl's face." As I said that, I put the bracelet in my pocket.
Somehow, even though I got the bracelet, I wasn't that happy, especially when I saw Nemo's suspicious eyes. I casually put the wallet into Nemo's hand, "Go ahead and give it back to her, and then I'll take you to dinner."
What do you want to eat?"
"Noodle."
"Well, let's eat at that restaurant," I pointed to a Chinese noodle restaurant not far away, "I'll wait for you there."
"Well," Nemo felt relieved when he saw that I was really not interested in making money. He took his wallet and ran in the direction of Luna.
I went to a Chinese noodle restaurant, ordered two bowls of noodles, and sat down by the window. For Nemo, stealing was not a problem, let alone a problem. After a while, this guy ran back again.
Nemo sat down in front of me. The waiter brought two steaming bowls of noodles. Nemo and I picked up our chopsticks and started eating.
Nemo was just eating, while I was playing with the bracelet. It was obviously an ordinary bracelet, with a few pearls strung together, and a metal moon shining in the sun. Why was Luna so determined to get her?
.Hehe, it just fell into my hands after all. I will play with it for a few days and when I get tired of it, I will throw it into the water, just not to let this girl Luna get it.
Just as I was thinking about it, I saw the red dress again through the window. My heart skipped a beat and I quickly turned my head away, pretending not to see it.
Nemo shouted, "Sister-in-law, where are we?"
By this time Luna had already seen us and walked over quickly.
I was shocked, "Nemo, what did you call her?"
"Sister-in-law."
"Then how did you return the wallet?"
"I just ran over and gave it to her. My sister-in-law is so nice, she even smiled at me. Her smile is so beautiful..."
I almost fainted and shouted: "Nemo, you bastard!"
Luna had already entered the noodle shop. I stood up, pushed open the window, jumped out, and ran away.
Luna shouted from behind, "Stop." After saying that, she chased after me, but she was wearing high heels, so naturally she couldn't catch up with me. Just when she was feeling lucky, Luna shouted loudly from behind, "Catch the thief!"
"
I felt that everyone on the street was looking at me, and I shuddered. This girl is so cruel. If a few brave people gathered around her and attacked her with fists and kicks, walking in the mud would turn into crawling in the mud.
Stepped.
The terrible thing is that Nemo also followed Luna and chased me.
There was an alley next to the street, and I rushed in.
I was dumbfounded when I turned into the alley. It was a dead end with high flat walls on both sides. Even Swallow Li San could only escape here. Luna, Nemo and some people had already blocked the entrance of the alley and were laughing.
Looking at me hehe.
Not wanting to suffer the immediate consequences, I walked over with a sneer and said, "I'm sorry, everyone, this is all a misunderstanding."
Before I finished speaking, Nemo rushed up and hugged me, "Haha, sister-in-law, I caught him."
I was anxious, "Nemo, you bastard, where are you from?"
The onlookers were all talking, "This thief is so bold." "Well, he stole things in broad daylight." "Yes, I said she should be sent to the police station."
Luna looked at me with a smile, stretched out her hand to me, "Give me the things first?"
I pushed Nemo away and obediently took out the bracelet, "Tell me first, how did you make Nemo rebel?"
