If the Water Margin

Chapter 144 Spider Silk

Wu Da's nervous mood slowly turned into excitement. He seemed to smell blood again. This annoying little man in front of him was finally going to be killed, which was so exciting.

Wu Da followed the little boy. Although the little boy trotted, the little boy's legs were much longer than Wu, so Wu Da had to really run to keep up. However, at this moment, Dalang has entered another state. This kind of running does not consume much energy for him. On the contrary, this is a run to the prey, desire and reverie for the future, which completely occupies Wu Da's brain.

The little boy's pace stopped, because he had reached the tree mentioned by Wu Da just now. After the sharp-billed monkey stopped and gasped, it could be seen that this was not all because of the reaction after running, but more a desire for what was coming.

In fact, why doesn't he think that how could a little man who has just worked in Rouge Lane for a short time continue? All this is just because he has never said how much silver is hidden, and the illusory imagination has made the sharp-billed little man's guess of the amount of the silver to reach an unbearable weight of his ambition. How much silver does he think there is? Fifty taels? One hundred taels? Are you kidding? Liu Lin can't earn 100 taels of silver a year.

No matter what the little man thinks, what Wu Da can believe is that the ups and downs of his mind, for this little man, he will definitely think about no less than himself.

"Shortman, which one is so many trees?" After taking a few breaths, the little man couldn't wait to ask Wu Da.

"Let me see." Wu Da pretended to think and actually looked around. The roots of big trees are very developed, so it is troublesome for too big trees to bury something under the tree, while too small trees obviously do not have the possibility of such landmarks, so it is reasonable to choose trees of the right size. After looking at half a circle, there is a tree that meets the standards of Wuhan University. This tree is probably as thick as one person hugging together for about a few decades. It is really suitable to bury something under this tree. That's it." Wu Da pointed to the tree.

The tree was very close to where the two stood, so they came under the tree in an instant.

"Oh, there is nothing to dig, but dwarf, how do you usually dig a hole? Isn't it that you have to bring a shovel pick every time you come to hide silver? That seems too conspicuous?" The sharp-mouthed monkey-gled little boy said carelessly.

"Oh, that's right. I put the money in a small jar and buried it not deep. This generation of soil is soft, and it can be dug out with only one hand and some hard branches." The branches in this area are hard. Although the surface of the land is relatively hard in winter, it is not difficult to dig them with thick branches. Wu Da felt that such an answer was the most reasonable.

"I didn't expect that you, a short man, looks like a mouse, and you really have the ability to dig holes. Then don't be idle, dig it quickly. I have never dug a hole and can't do this job. Besides, this is your private treasure house, and it is not suitable for me to open it. The sharp-mouthed monkey-gled little man waved his hand and said, mocking in an extremely mocking tone.

"That's, that's it." Wu Da nodded: "How dare you let your predecessors do this rough work? These things must be done by villains. It's just that it's winter, and the land is hard, and the top can't be dug with my hands. I'm going to find a hard branch. It's easy to do things quickly, and we can go back early. To be honest, I still want to see the girls in the pavilion tonight. Wu Da walked aside as he spoke.

"Just look around here and don't let me see you. Although the moon is quite bright, my eyes are not very good. If I think you have run away, I will go back and report it to the government. At that time, you will die. The little man's voice was lazy, and it seemed that the fatigue all the way still surged up during the rest.

It's just that the body is useless for hanging out with women in a brothel. Wu Da mocked in his heart. When he looked back with his spare light, the little boy had already leaned on the "treasure tree" to rest.

Wu Da did not go far. He carefully searched around for branches that met his requirements. Yes, he needs a hard branch that can help him achieve his wish tonight. A series of lies finally made it the most reasonable to find such a dangerous thing, and Wu Da couldn't help feeling proud of his wisdom.

Many branches around this fell to the ground. Wu Da didn't look for it for too long and found the right branches. This branch has a thin wrist and is more than two feet long. It is not as curved as an ordinary branch, but a little straight. One end was obviously broken, and the fracture was very sharp. It looked like it fell from the burden of some firewood picker, because ordinary firewood pickers made the firewood so long.

Wu Da smiled gently at the branch. He took it in his hand and slowly walked to the treasure tree. When the little man saw Wu Da coming back, he immediately stood up straight: "You short man is not bad. You come back quickly. Hurry up and work."

Wu Da think that he must be one step away from this little man in order to suddenly launch an attack and kill him with one blow, so be careful. The little man was about three steps away from Wu Da, which made Wu Da's raid very difficult, so he had to put up with it for the time being.

But Wu Da understood that he could not stand still. Since he had agreed to find a branch to dig a hole, he could only dig now. He pretended to walk next to the tree. He picked up a place on the south side of the tree where there was no snow and the land was relatively soft, and he stabbed it fiercely with branches.

The soil is softer than expected, and Wuhan University has not encountered much obstacles. But he is still very careful. He is afraid that he will become very passive because the branch will be broken because of too much force.

Wu Da was digging while paying attention to the shadow on the ground. The moon cast the shadow of the little one in front of Wu Da, which made him not have to look back and know what the other party was doing. This is also a very important reason why Wu Da chose to pretend to dig a hole on the south side.

The two were not talking. The silence of the conversation was made up by the sound of Wu Da's digging. He was so afraid of breaking the branches that he really began to help with his hands, so that his whole body squatted down. However, the advantage of this is that the sharp part in front of the branch is preserved. There is some dirt on it, which makes the sharpness not look so eye-catching.

It didn't take long for a half-foot hole to be dug out. Through the shadow, Wu Da clearly saw that the little boy was close to him, and the other party seemed to be walking slowly. The distance was constantly being tightened. Now it is estimated that there is only one and a half step and a half between the two.

Wu Da understands that this is the other party's heart that can't help expecting silver. He wants to see the money jar as soon as possible. Since the other party's heart has been completely stirred, there is no need to do any cover-up performance. Wu Da slightly adjusted the position of his body, as if he was tired of squatting and changing places, but in fact, he pressed his weight on his right leg, which was very convenient for him to jump up immediately at the moment of turning around, and could also force the little man to move to the left, because only in this way can he see himself clearly. What are you digging for?

Sure enough, the figure is gently moving to the left, almost.

"Oh, I dug it out." Wu Da shouted softly, and then pulled the branch out of the soil as if there was something hard on the ground.

While Wu Da was speaking, he judged from the shadow on the ground that the other party had taken another step closer to his left. Now the distance between the two is estimated to be only a little more than half a step.

It's now!

Wuda grasped the branch with his right hand and turned his sharp end to the front side of his body. His right foot made a fierce force, his body turned left quickly, and then his left foot continued to exert force, and his whole body jumped like an arrow. And the branch in his hand is the sharpest arrow.

Without suspense, the sharp arrow passed through the chest on the left side of the sergeant. He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to shout before death, but he could not make a sound. After Wu Da's fatal blow, he loosened his right hand and fell on his back. The sharp-billed monkey's whole body moved a few times, and then calmed down permanently after a few violent convulsions.

Wu Da walked over and took a look and made sure that the man was dead. The death was perfect and did not shed much blood. The branch perfectly blocked the wound, so the blood did not spewed out from the front. I think there should be some blood flowing from behind, but it is estimated that this wilderness will immediately penetrate into the land.

Dalang felt extremely bright in his heart. The little man who had been noisy in his ear for so long was killed so easily. Although it was a little uncomfortable and unpleasive, on the whole, it was also a very pleasant thing. He couldn't control his happy mood and kicked the little boy's body a few times.

These feet kicked very hard, and the body also swayed a few times with Wu Da's feet. Just when Wu Da felt that it was boring, he suddenly felt as if something was shining in the moonlight. Looking along the shining, Wu Da couldn't help but be shocked. It turned out that in the little boy's hand, he suddenly held a short knife.

This knife is about a foot long. Wu Da holds the knife in his hand and looks like snow. Wu Da and Wu Song have also seen some weapons. They know that those with such a knife are good blades.

What does this little boy want to do with a knife in his hand? There is only one answer. He wants the name of Wu Da. Yes, he just moved to the left front like Wu Da, not to see what was in the pit, but to use this action to put the knife into Wu Da's chest from behind.

It's just that the branches in the martial arts are longer, and with the return of a little strength, the movement is as fast as lightning, which prevails in the instantaneous confrontation. Wu Da couldn't imagine that if his action was slow for a blink of an eye, he would fall here and couldn't even make a wailing before he died. And the most deadly thing is that Wu Da, who focused on monitoring the little guy, actually didn't know when the other party pulled out the knife and conceived the fatal blow behind him.

Thinking this way, I can't help but be a little afraid. A lot of cold sweat flowed from the front and back.

This little boy wants to hurt me, so who is he? Wu Da thought about it, and he decided to search for the body of the little boy. The little man's clothes are very simple. I think it's because the brothel is afraid that the little man will secretly take something, so the clothes don't have much place to prevent things, and it's easy to search. The search results made Wu Da a little disappointed. He just found some scattered silver and didn't find anything to prove the identity of the little man. What's more confusing is that he didn't even find the scabbard of the knife.

This is too unreasonable. How can such a sharp weapon be carried without a scabbard? It is too easy to cut the knife holder himself. Although when the sharp weapon comes out of the sheath, it will make more or less sound, so this can better explain why you are unaware of the sheath of the knife, this is obviously missing a small problem and ignores a big problem.

Wu Da felt that what happened tonight was strange and abnormal. In this state, it was no longer appropriate to continue to think about this problem. Anyway, this poor man who followed him has died, and he is living well. Now he is far away from Rouge Lane. It's time to go back.

The silver found from the little man is about twelve or three taels, which is enough to return to the Osmanthus Tower in a sedan chair, so there is less chance of being found. The knife did not have a scabbard. Wu Da thought about it and was indeed easy to cut it. In addition, this thing was a little evil, so he threw him to the ground. Although Dalang wanted to bury the little man's body, the pit he had just dug was too small to accommodate people's bodies. He hadn't eaten dinner yet. After tossing and tos, he really didn't have the strength to dig deep into the tomb for him. What's more, this guy wanted to take Wu Da's life, but he missed it at the last moment because he was too unlucky. How could such a person dig a grave and set up a monument for him? Although it is very close to Yanggu County, it is not on the road, and I don't think many people will pass by here. Just let him corpse in the wilderness and add some food to those wolves and wild dogs, which is regarded as doing good deeds and accumulating virtue.

No, this is not doing good deeds, but God expressing his kindness. Wu Da thought proudly.

He then looked at the moonlight. There was no blood on his hands and feet, so he hurriedly left the woods, walked north for a while, and entered Yanggu County. Wuda did not stop, but identified the direction and traveled all the way to the northeast to make himself farther away from Rouge Lane.

Walking, Dalang found that there were more people on the road. The pedestrians were full of joy, and they were talking about something endlessly, and even some of them were arguing, but these voices were extremely complicated, and Wu Da couldn't hear what they were talking about for a moment. Yanggu usually, even the most prosperous street, can't have so many people at this time. What's more, it's still an extremely cold winter, which makes me not see many people in the night and feel a little at a loss.

But it doesn't matter. The more people there are, the more they can hide themselves. Wu Da stood in the flow of people and felt safe for a while. Now there is only one thing left, that is, find a sedan chair and pull yourself back to the Osmanthus Building.

It is not difficult to find a sedan chair, because many people have just got off the sedan chair, and Wu Da casually grabbed a sedan chairman who was about to carry away the empty sedan chair.

The sedan took a few times at Wu Da: "What are you going to do?" It's very rude in the words.

"A sedan chair." Wu Da was angry, but later he thought that he was wearing the clothes of a young man. What's more, there were enough things to do tonight, and he still put patience first.

"Let's take a sedan chair." The sedan chairman's attitude changed slightly: "Where are you going?"

"Guihua Building." Wu Da didn't talk much nonsense. He already felt tired. Now what he wants most is the delicious food in Guihualou, the large bathtub, and the soft and comfortable bed.

"The road is not close." The sedan chairman's eyes turned around: "Today we were busy all night and didn't want to pull it. But if you pay a lot of money, you can be accommodated.

Wu Da took out a piece of silver from his arms and weighed it with his hand. He could probably have three or four taels, and threw it directly to the sedan chairman: "Are these enough?"

The sedan chairman took it, looked at it carefully, bit it with his teeth, and quickly broke it. Enough, enough. Sir, please get on the sedan chair. Then he helped Wu Da pick up the curtain of the sedan chair.

Wu Da slowly walked into the sedan chair and said, "It's time to go."

The sedan chairman said "hey", but the sound sounded like there was a tremor, more like a tremor caused by fear. However, Wu Da thought for a moment and felt that there was no reason for this. Maybe he was overworked and had hallucinations, so he didn't care.

The sedan chair is carried smoothly all the way north. Wu Da estimated that it would be time to go to Guihua Tower for a while, and tonight's event was coming to an end. But at this time, the voice of the sedan chair came from outside, which seemed to be made after a long hesitation: "Are you the owner of Guihua Building, outside the martial arts?"

"Yes. It's me." Wu Da thought for a moment, and it seemed that there was no reason to hide his identity. Moreover, if he reported his identity enough, the sedan chairman should work harder and let you look down on people just now. It seems that he recognized me and felt fear for his reckless behavior.

But after a long time, the sedan chairman had no more sound, but Dalang felt that the speed of the sedan chair had accelerated significantly. In this kind of nonsense, time passed quickly. When Wu Da came to his senses, the sedan chair had stopped. He opened the curtain of the sedan chair and saw that it was the main door of the Guihua Tower.

Oh, I forgot to tell the sedan chairman to stop at the back door. But the front door is also good, and it's finally there. Wu Da got off the sedan chair, waved his hand at the sedan chair, signaled that the other party could leave, and then walked into the main door of the Osmanthus Building.

The lobby of Guihua Building is extremely cold. There is no one to eat, only a few dozed off. Wu Da thought for a moment. Everyone went to see the stars tonight. There were not many people in Rouge Lane, let alone the Osmanthus Building, which was also acceptable.

Those guys saw Wu Da and hurried over: "The shopkeeper is back."

Wu Da nodded casually, then went upstairs and walked towards his room. He wanted to change his clothes quickly.

At this moment, a man behind him suddenly said, "Shopkeeper, why is there a word behind you?"
