Chapter 3 Chapter 3 Gold Stolen

The scene before his eyes was messy and bloody.A human head was lying at Zhang Ziheng's feet in a bloody mess. Zhang Ziheng was so frightened that he instinctively jumped away.On the ground, the arms, legs and feet of the person were torn apart, and the fragments of clothes and fragmentary bones were mixed together. The strong smell of blood seemed to fill the entire space. Zhang Ziheng squatted down and vomited "Wow". This kind of bloody and terrifying scene was not surprising to Battalion Commander Shi, who had experienced the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, but the expressions of him, Cui Jingwei and Riwobuji became serious.

Although there was only one human head on the ground, judging from the mutilated hands and feet, this pile of bloody bones should belong to at least two people. At this time, the wild dogs that Riwobuji had thrown away with stones turned back stealthily.The broken flesh and blood on the ground had already attracted their greedy desires, but they did not dare to approach rashly, but hid behind a ridge of bamboo, staring at Battalion Commander Shi and the others, their green eyes flickering coldly! Guard Cui drew his pistol from his waist, and under the signal of Commander Shi, he fired a shot at the wild dog.The crisp gunshots pierced the silent dawn. A wild dog uttered a scream and fell to the ground. Seeing that the situation was not good, the other wild dogs fled away in a huff.

"What's the sound? Why are you shooting?" Zhang Yaoye's loud questioning voice came from outside the forest. Commander Shi and Guard Cui ignored Mr. Zhang Yao, but Zhang Ziheng yelled at Mr. Zhang Yao in a mournful voice: "Master Yao, someone is dead! Someone is dead! Many people have died!" "Is someone dead? Who is he dead?" Mr. Zhang Yao outside the forest obviously couldn't sit still anymore. When Master Zhang Yao walked into the bamboo forest supported by She Shiyun, Battalion Commander Shi and the others still stood there silently. When Zhang Yaoye saw the situation in front of him, he trembled and couldn't say a word for a long time. He looked at Commander Shi pitifully, his mouth was pursed, the muscles on his face were twitching like spasms, and two lines of muddy tears flowed down Flowing freely on the cheeks...

She Shiyun was also dizzy for a while, she turned her face to the dark bamboo forest, not looking at the bloody scene, but she still did not forget to comfort Zhang Yaoye.She patted Zhang Yaoye on the back with her hand, and said softly, "Godfather, don't look, just turn your face to one side." Zhang Ziheng, who vomited for a while, squatted on the ground, looking at Master Zhang Yao bewilderedly, he had no idea at all. Battalion Commander Shi went up and patted Master Zhang Yao on the shoulder, sighed, and said in a dull voice: "Old man, don't be too sad, first you can see whose head this head belongs to in the village."

Zhang Yaoye picked up the cuff of the old padded jacket, wiped his eyes, and began to carefully identify the fuzzy head in front of him. This head has been completely covered by coagulated blood, and the whole face has been torn horribly by wild dogs.Zhang Yaoye suppressed the disgusting nausea, looked at it for a while, and said: "It has been ruined like this, and I can't recognize it." Heizi, who had been clinging to Mr. Zhang Yaoye all this time, seemed less nervous and frightened than before. Heizi began to wander around, sniffing the corpse with its nose.After sniffing around, Heizi ran a few more steps and barked a few times into the dark woods.

Battalion Commander Shi and Guard Cui glanced at each other, then walked in the direction of Heizi barking knowingly.The light beam of the flashlight moved to another place with Guard Cui, Zhang Ziheng hurriedly got up nervously, and stood with Zhang Yaoye and Riwobuji. Commander Shi and Guard Cui saw a bloodstain stretching towards the other side of the bamboo forest, so they turned around and shouted at Zhang Yaoye and Riwo Buji, "Don't stand still, follow, there is still something going on over there." Hearing Battalion Commander Shi's shout, Zhang Yaoye and Zhang Ziheng's calves trembled at the same time, and it was like a muffled thunder rang in their heads.

"What's the matter? What else is the matter? Could it be that everyone in the village has suffered?" Zhang Yaoye's throat was as hoarse as if he had choked on soot.He was out of breath. At this time, everything around became weird. Guard Cui led the way with a flashlight looking for blood, and Heizi also walked in the front, sniffing the ground.Passing through the bamboo forest, a dark alley appeared in front of him.In the depths of the alley, a few greedy green lights flickered like will-o'-the-wisps. It's the eyes of wild dogs! These ghost-like guys seem to have all settled in the village.

At the entrance of the alley, another bloody arm was found. "Could it be that something happened to your fourth aunt's house?" Zhang Yaoye said tremblingly to Zhang Ziheng. Battalion Commander Shi and Guard Cui smelled the smell of gunpowder in the air at the same time.Only these two professional soldiers can accurately detect this smell. Battalion Commander Shi drew a pistol from his waist, and Guard Cui extinguished the flashlight.The two became highly tense. The alley was so dark that nothing could be seen clearly. The melted snow and the mud that hadn't dried for a long time made the whole alley gloomy and damp, and gusts of cold air flowed silently in the alley.

Battalion Commander Shi and Guard Cui tried not to let the mud under their feet make any noise, and slowly went deep into the alley. Zhang Yaoye also wanted to go in, but was held back by Riwobuji. The door of the fourth aunt's house was half closed, and there was no sound in it.Battalion Commander Shi held his pistol tightly, stood close to the door, and winked at Guard Cui.Guard Cui understood, and suddenly raised his foot and kicked towards the half-opened door, then dodged to the side.There was a bang, and the door swung open.With the sound of explosion, two or three black shadows swished out from inside. Before Battalion Commander Shi could react, the black shadows had already shot out along the alley.

Still a few wild dogs. Battalion Commander Shi and Guard Cui have already rushed into the door at lightning speed. The desperate wild dog rushed out of the alley, almost bumped into Zhang Yaoye and the others who were guarding the entrance of the alley, and then disappeared around the corner of the alley like a few strange winds. Zhang Yaoye took a breath and said, "Why are there all the shadows of wild dogs?" But Zhang Ziheng said: "These wild dogs have become fine." "Come on, go to the fourth aunt's house to see what's going on." Saying that, Mr. Zhang was about to walk into the alley.

Riwobuji, Zhang Ziheng, and She Shiyun all had this idea, so the four walked towards the door kicked open by Cui's guard, stepping on the mud in the alley. The room was deserted and dark, and I couldn't see anything clearly. "Where are the two people who went in?" Zhang Yaoye, who was looking into the room, asked worriedly. As soon as the words were finished, someone inside suddenly lit a match - Commander Shi lit a kerosene lamp in the room.The room suddenly lit up. Zhang Yaoye and the others took a deep breath, their hearts fell, and they walked into the room together. At this time, Guard Cui came in from a side door and said to Battalion Commander Shi, "Battle Commander, go to the courtyard at the back and have a look. There are still a few people lying there, all of whom were shot to death." Battalion Commander Shi snorted, and immediately followed Guard Cui to the side door. Zhang Yaoye's body trembled again, and he said in a trembling voice: "How many people died? Who died?" His eyes revealed almost despair. She Shiyun was afraid that Mr. Zhang would fall to the ground, so she tried her best to support him, and comforted him: "Godfather, don't worry. Sit down first." She said she wanted to help him onto a bamboo chair.Master Zhang Yao stubbornly wanted to follow to the courtyard behind to see what happened. In the small courtyard, there were indeed several people lying in disorder. When Guard Cui's flashlight shone on a person's face, Zhang Ziheng exclaimed, "Why are those militiamen?" Master Zhang Yao also saw clearly the appearance of the person who was beaten to death, and his heart that had been tightly gripped was instantly relieved. He took a long breath and said, "Thank God, it wasn't our Zhang family who died." Battalion Commander Shi stared at Master Zhang Yao coldly.Zhang Yaoye suddenly realized that what he said was a bit unkind and unrighteous, so he said again: "Who is so cruel? It's all life! How can you say that if you kill him, you will be killed. Is there any law?" Battalion Commander Shi no longer paid attention to Mr. Zhang Yao, but asked Cui Guards to use a flashlight to take photos of several corpses lying on the ground one by one.The few people who died were indeed some militiamen brought by Wu Zhangkui.Perhaps the wild dogs were scared away before they had time to bite these corpses, so these corpses appeared to be intact. Zhang Yaoye murmured again at this time: "Why is there no corpse of that bastard?" The "bastard" Zhang Yaoye mentioned was of course Wu Zhangkui.At this time, in Zhang Yaoye's subconscious mind, what he most wanted to see was Wu Zhangkui's corpse lying in front of him.This made Master Zhang Yao feel a little regretful. The woodshed door was open. Zhang Yaoye suddenly said: "It's too bad! The pile of gold in the cave probably suffered!" Zhang Yaoye's words surprised Battalion Commander Shi and the others. "You mean the gold is in this room?" asked Battalion Commander Shi. "It's in a hole in this room." Zhang Yaoye said. Battalion Commander Shi and Guard Cui glanced at each other, and immediately walked towards the woodshed. Under the light of the flashlight, the firewood room was in a mess, and a hole at the base of the wall was revealed. It was gloomy like a dying man opening his hungry mouth. Master Zhang Yao who was standing at the door murmured, "How do these bastards know about this hole? I didn't mention this to the second person." At this time, Battalion Commander Shi said regretfully: "It seems that they were one step ahead." "Why don't you go in and have a look?" Guard Cui suggested. Battalion Commander Shi nodded, and the two climbed into the cave. After a while, Battalion Commander Shi and Guard Cui crawled out of the cave again, and Battalion Commander Shi was holding two golden bars in his hand. Zhang Yaoye said with bright eyes, "Is the gold bar still there?" "It's gone. The people who moved these gold bars seem to have left in a hurry. They dropped them on the ground." Battalion Commander Shi said. Master Zhang Yao immediately became dejected again. Riwobuji, who had been silent all this time, said at this time: "I think this group of people should have left not long ago. We may have time to catch up with them." But Battalion Commander Shi said: "If it was really that group of people who attacked first, it's useless to rely on us alone. This group of people has long been a murderous and bloodthirsty animal. Will be merciful. If we catch up with them, we will basically die." Master Zhang Yao was a little upset when he heard Battalion Commander Shi say such heroic and short-sighted words, and said, "Sir, you have a guy in your hand, why do you say such spineless words? Could it be that the pile of gold was given to them for nothing? I can really see it, it's a huge pile, enough for the children and grandchildren of the Zhang family to eat for eight lifetimes." Commander Shi Ying glanced at Zhang Yaoye and said, "I know the weight of that pile of gold. But don't you have the custom and etiquette in your village that the dead are the most important? Let's settle these dead people first." Then he walked out woodshed. But Zhang Yaoye said fiercely: "What is the most important thing about the dead? It depends on who is dead! Like these collectors, they deserve to die! They have been cursed to feed wild dogs!" Hearing what Zhang Yaoye said, Zhang Ziheng was not happy, and said, "Yaoye, why are you so dark all of a sudden? He has no grievances or enmities with you, yet you still say such unconscionable words." But Mr. Zhang said stubbornly: "You are still a traitor. It's not like you didn't see the 'duck water' of those bastards hanging on me, and almost broke my ribs When dealing with people, there is no one who is merciful, and the whole Lao Tzu is like a whole class of enemies. You should remember them now. The heart of a Bodhisattva can also win people!" "Too lazy to tell you." Zhang Ziheng muttered and walked out of the room.
