The 'chicken soup' smelled fishy when it entered the bowl, and someone must have been doing it secretly. Zhu Shouren's face turned purple with anger.
Haruchi also smelled something wrong with the smell of the 'chicken soup'. This time he couldn't pretend to be dumbfounded. Haruchi slapped the table and stood up, pointed at the 'chicken soup' and shouted: "Bold Zhu Shouren, you are the one." Such delicious food prepared for me,"
Zhu Shouren was at a loss for words at this time. He just hesitated and said: "There must be something fishy in this. I will wait for my subordinates to find out. I hope Lord Haruch will calm down."
Haruchi stood up with a roar and said angrily: "Then check it out slowly. I can't bear this banquet. I'll take my leave." After saying that, without waiting for Zhu Shouren to say anything else, he walked out of the side hall with his servants in hand. Leave on your own.
Zhu Shouren was stunned for a long time and hurried out of the hall, following Haru Chi closely: "Sir, please go to the post house to rest. What happened today is all the fault of this official. I hope your Excellency can forgive me." Next time,"
Hearing this, Haruchi stopped and said to Zhu Shouren earnestly: "Master Zhu, how can this be just a matter of a meal? The court can rest assured that Luzhou is under your guard, Master Zhu, but now someone is causing trouble in your house." , You must know how to sweep the world if you don't sweep one house." Haruchi had already walked outside the gate of the garrison, and then said: "Master Zhu, there is no need to blame yourself, I will go back now, and what happened today did not happen. , Mr. Zhu, please take care of yourself,"
Zhu Shouren's heart just fell to pieces after hearing this, and he quickly bowed his hands and said: "I respectfully send you off to Lord Haruch,"
Haruchi snorted and got on the sedan chair. The military commander beside the sedan shouted: "Get up the sedan chair." Then, under the protection of hundreds of soldiers, Haruchi's soft sedan chair gradually moved away.
Zhu Shouren looked at the departing superior, and couldn't help but feel very annoyed. Following him to see off the guests were two of Zhu Shouren's confidants. Although these two confidants were dressed as servants, they were all highly skilled in martial arts. .
Zhu Shouren immediately ordered in a cold voice: "Something happened at the banquet today. What happened? I asked you to go to the kitchen to help. How could something go wrong?"
The two servants were shocked, and one of them quickly explained: "Sir, this matter has nothing to do with you. After the meal was ready, the cook at Deyuelou asked us to estimate the wine. It must have happened after we left. "These two people have been Zhu Shouren's confidants for many years, and Zhu Shouren naturally trusts him in every possible way.
Hearing what his two confidants said, Zhu Shouren ordered in a cold voice: "In that case, the cook from Deyuelou doesn't have to go back. You must find out what happened and clean up afterwards." The two confidants behind him raised their hands in unison. Following the order, I turned back and entered the garrison.
Zhu Shouren stood on the street for a while and then slowly turned around and walked towards the gate of the garrison mansion. He was in a state of confusion all the way. What if Haruch was really angry because of this matter? Don't Looking at Naharuchi's words of relief, little did he know that people in the officialdom are good at hiding emotions and anger, but this time it was really difficult to figure it out.
The cook in Deyuelou stood in front of the kitchen door as usual and waited. Usually when he cooked in this garrison, he would be rewarded afterwards, ranging from one tael of silver to a few strings of money. Being a chef in Deyuelou It's only one or two cents of silver per month. It's still a good job. It would be good if the poor ones can make a living. After all, it's a time of war and chaos, and it's not easy to make a living.
Just as they were waiting anxiously, two servants from the mansion came. Both of them were in green clothes and tight-fitting hats. The chef smiled and greeted them: "Oh, I have troubled you both today, hahaha," and the two servants They were the two people who lit the fire for him.
The two servants walked up to the chef, both with smiles on their faces. The one on the left smiled and said: "My master said that there are less dishes today. Did you steal the secret?"
The chef couldn't help being surprised and murmured in his heart: "Is it possible that someone saw me cheating?" He was doubtful in his heart, but he kept saying: "What are you two talking about? There is no such thing, there is no such thing." "This matter,"
The two servants in Tsing Yi looked at each other without saying anything. The person who asked the question earlier kicked the chef in the stomach and knocked the chef to the ground. The chef let out a scream and before he could get up, the servant continued He pulled out a dagger from his boot and walked to the chef and squatted down. He dangled the gleaming dagger in front of the chef and said with a ferocious smile: "It's useless to steal someone's words. It's useless to insist on talking." Yes, you have to poke a few holes in your body before you tell the truth."
Tears were streaming down the chef's face at this time, and he knew that sophistry was useless, so he admitted: "I was the one who stole the news, and I don't want today's wages." As he said this, he began to cry.
Anyone who works in the government, whether he is a servant of the government or a foreign helper, once he makes a mistake, it is as easy as killing a cat or dog. The chef knows that he only eats a few of each dish. He dared to admit it, but it would not cost him his life. Little did he know that death would really be imminent.
The servant squatting in front of the chef laughed and said: "That's right, get up." After saying that, he put away the dagger and helped the chef up. Another servant chuckled and said: "Thank you for your hard work, master. The wages still have to be paid,”
After Da Kui had eaten and drank enough, he felt a little sleepy. The chef kept guarding the door, but Da Kui couldn't show up. In desperation, he slept on the beam in the kitchen. Unexpectedly, he heard the movement in front of the kitchen door. Wake up.
Looking out from the beam, he could just see three people standing outside the door arguing. Da Kui couldn't help but be a little curious. He just heard the chef say: "No, no, no...," before he finished speaking, the man standing next to him The servant suddenly slapped him on the back of the neck, and the chef immediately fell to the ground.
When the chef fell to the ground, his head was facing the door. Da Kui clearly saw from the beam that the servant who took action stretched out his hands, grabbed the chef's chin with one hand and pressed his head with the other. His hands suddenly moved, and Da Kui left. A "click" was heard from far away, and the servant actually broke the chef's neck.
Only then did Dakui realize that he had stolen someone else's food, but had caused the chef's death. I didn't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me. Dakui couldn't help but feel very guilty, and then he saw the man who did it. The servants went into the kitchen, found a sack for vegetables, dumped all the vegetables on the ground, put the chef's body in the sack, and worked with another servant to carry the sack away.
Da Kui immediately jumped off the kitchen beam and left the kitchen, secretly following the two servants. The ancients said: Those who respect others will always respect them, and those who kill people will always kill them. They all take it for themselves. This chef also has a small family. Now that his relatives had been brutally murdered and could not remain silent, Dakui decided to find a suitable place to kill these two servants and bury them with the chef.
However, the two servants walked through the back door of the garrison and put down the sacks in front of the door. One of them went to the stable to hitch a cart. Two shovels and a pickaxe were placed on the cart. The two threw the sacks onto the cart board. Then he opened the back door and drove out of the garrison mansion.
The carriage went all the way north, because there were mass graves a few miles outside the north gate.
It is now the beginning of May, at the end of spring and the beginning of summer. Just after noon, the sun is blazing.
The guard Zhu said that they had to clean it up, so they couldn't let the chef die in the wilderness. The two servants went to the graveyard and found a place near the water in the forest. Each of them held a shovel and a pickaxe and started digging a hole.
The weather was hot, but the two servants did not dare to delay. They dug like rain and sweated like rain. In just a moment, they dug a pit six feet long and three feet wide according to the chef's stature.
The two of them straightened up and wiped off their sweat. One of them simply took off his shirt and left his upper body naked and said, "It's really hot today," as he said this, he held up his clothes and fanned his face to cool off.
Another person sighed: "Quickly bury the cook and go back to work. Come on, let's help." The two of them got to the car, carried the sacks, walked to the pit, threw the sacks down into the dug pit, and then Both of them took shovels and started filling the hole. They didn't straighten up until the person was buried.
Unexpectedly, someone behind him said: "This pit is too small, it needs to be deeper."
The two were startled, and hurriedly let go and threw the sacks away. When they turned around, they saw a man in rags sitting on the carriage. They couldn't help but be surprised. When did this man arrive and why did he make no sound?
Dakui only showed up at this time. Naturally, he waited for the two servants to dig a hole before taking action. Unexpectedly, the hole was very small and had to be dug larger to bury the three of them together. In desperation, he could only give a warning.
Seeing the two people's panic, Dakui deliberately coaxed him and said: "This graveyard is like my home. Why do you come to my house to break ground?" The two servants were shocked when they heard this, but then they thought about it and the sky is white now. The evil spirits didn't dare to show up in the daytime, and when they saw Dakui's shadow again, they all felt relieved.
Seeing that the two of them had calmed down and looked fierce, Da Kui immediately said with a smile: "You are so disrespectful of human life, but God cannot tolerate it. Today I am going to take the life of this cook," he said without waiting for the two of them to take action. He jumped up and rushed towards him.
Dakui extended his palms in the air and attacked the two of them separately. The two servants in Tsing Yi were shocked when they saw this. One of them dodged to the left and the other to the right. Their bodies quickly dodged Dakui's two-palm attack.
Da Kui couldn't help but be surprised. He didn't expect that the two servants of the garrison mansion could have such skills. As soon as he thought about it, he was already on the ground. Unexpectedly, the shirtless servant on the left had already pulled out the dagger from his boot in the blink of an eye. When he came out, he dodged and stabbed Da Kui's waist and abdomen with a dagger. Another servant in Tsing Yi was not hesitant. He also dodged and kicked Da Kui's private parts. Although in a hurry, these two The servants attacked from both sides, and Da Kui had to deal with it carefully.
Just when there was no chance of anything happening, Dakui suddenly dodged to the right, pressing down his left palm to protect his lower body, and using his right palm to strike straight into the mouth of the servant on the right, it was the changed Tai Chi that held the sparrow's tail.
Not only did this move dodge the dagger, but it actually knocked the unarmed servant ten steps away, vomiting blood and falling to the ground on his back. Dakui succeeded and then dodged to the left, his left arm thrust forward, and there was that light on the left. Before the dagger in the arm's servant's hand could be used up, Dakui had captured the wrist of his right hand holding the dagger.
The man couldn't help but turn pale with fright. It was too late to change his moves. Da Kui grabbed his wrist with one hand and made a soft "click" sound. Accompanied by the man's miserable howl, Dakui launched a lightning-like forward kick.
In his heart, the shirtless servant flew out like a kite with its string broken and fell to the ground.
How could Dakui be merciful when he had murderous intentions in his heart? He killed two tough men at his hands in the blink of an eye...
