Chapter 3: The Seeds of Hatred
Zhao Haisheng blocked the door, knelt on the ground and begged: "Steward Chen, you can do it!" This is the life-saving food given to us by a living bodhisattva! Without this food, we wouldn't be able to survive this year! ”
The triangular-eyed housekeeper Chen glared fiercely, making Zhao Haisheng tremble all over.
"Fuck off! Poor ghosts, don't stand in the way of Master Chen! The two scoundrels came up, pulled away Zhao Haisheng, who was shaking like a sieve, and then rushed into the house to grab something.
The woman stubbornly protected the big bag full of sweet potatoes, and hid the small bag of white rice in her arms, protecting these grains like a treasure, and preventing the fierce gods from snatching them. But how can a woman who can't even eat enough to fight for these strong ruffians! The woman watched as her family's life-saving food was snatched away.
"Don't!" The woman screamed miserably, and pounced on the big tui with triangular eyes, "Master Chen, okay!" My family is dying of hunger, so be kind. ”
"Get out of here!" Steward Chen kicked it hard.
But this woman didn't know where she got so much strength, so she just hugged Steward Chen's thighs and didn't let go. Triangle Eye kicked up just now and kicked the woman's stomach, and the woman was so painful that her internal organs turned over and overturned, but she just refused to let go, and she didn't want to watch the life-saving food at home being snatched away.
"Someone! Beat me to death with this flower woman! Steward Chen roared.
Two splashes came up and punched and kicked the woman. But no matter how splashy the skin beats, the woman just cries and refuses to let go.
Steward Chen roared ferociously: "Cut off this crazy woman's hand for me!" ”
A splashy "brush" pulled out the Pu knife and cut it down with a cruel knife. I only heard a terrible scream, blood splattered, blood splattered the triangular eyes and the splashy body, and the woman fainted to the ground in pain. But the hands that were cut off still grabbed Steward Chen's trouser legs, and he couldn't take them off no matter how he pulled them.
"Lady!" Zhao Haisheng came up crying and picked up his wife who was unconscious on the ground.
"Mother! Mother! Maomao cried and shook her mother vigorously. But the woman's eyes were closed, and no matter how much her husband and son called, she could not wake up.
Before Steward Chen asked Popi to carry the food and prepare to leave, he also calculated an account: "The surname is Zhao, you have owed us Master Zhang 300 yuan for a year!" This is profitable, now you should pay back the six hundred dollars of Master Zhang! Our lord is kind-hearted and merciful, as long as you count 500 yuan! This bag of sweet potatoes and a small bag of rice are only worth less than 100 yuan! You don't have anything of value at home, we took the iron pot away, and if it is smashed, it can be sold for a few bucks as scrap iron! ”
After speaking, Steward Chen asked Splashy to snatch away the iron pots.
"You scoundrels! Why do you want to hit my mother! I'm going to cut off my mother's hand! Maomao, who was only seven or eight years old, chased him out, pulled the pants of the triangular eye, and did not let him leave.
"It's called Hanako! Look for death! Triangle Eye kicked it hard.
How could the thin Mao Mao withstand this kick, he was kicked and flew up, flew more than a foot away, fell heavily to the ground, and landed unconscious.
"Son!" Zhao Haisheng rushed out of the house, picked up his son and cried bitterly.
I saw that the child's eyes were closed, his face had begun to turn white, and blood flowed out of his head. Just now, Steward Chen's kick kicked Mao Mao away, and when the child fell, his head hit the ground, and his head broke and he bled out, not knowing life and death.
Steward Chen turned his head, but saw that the man who was usually very cowardly had red eyes at this time, and there was a hateful look in his eyes when he looked at him, as if he was about to eat himself alive. The triangular eyes were startled, and first scared inwardly: "What? The surname is Zhao, do you want to rebel? If you want to rebel, those heads at the city gate will be your end! After speaking, he hurriedly greeted the splashers: "Let's go, let's go to the next village to collect rent!" ”
That night, there was a lot of crying in the small village, and I don't know how many people couldn't stand it, so they chose to commit suicide to complain about this evil ban on the sea. Some families even committed suicide with their families.
"Lady!" A heart-rending cry sounded in Zhao Haisheng's dilapidated house, "Why did you leave me alone and take Mao Mao away!" Lady! Son! You are on the road together, you are not lonely, but leave me alone, how can I live! ”
Son Maomao was kicked by the triangular eye and fainted, since the ban on the sea was issued two years ago, the child has been very weak, was kicked, and went in the afternoon! And the woman did not suffer from it, the woman who had been frugal and gave all the food to her husband and son was extremely weak, and her hands were cut off, and she lost too much blood, and at night, she also died and went on the road with her son, leaving only her husband alone.
The food at home was robbed, even the iron pot was robbed, the woman and her son also died, and the debt collection this year was forced to death!
Even his only son is gone, and Zhao Haisheng is in pain. Recalling that at the beginning, when there was no ban on the sea, Zhao Haisheng, who had good fishing skills, was still a well-off family, and his life was okay, and his family of nine was at least worry-free. However, when the Qing court promulgated the ban on the sea, Zhao Haisheng's family lost their source of livelihood.
In order to keep their only grandson, Zhao Haisheng and his wife ruthlessly sold their four daughters. The two old men in the family also starved to death because they wanted to leave food for their grandchildren. All this is to keep the only seedling of the Zhao family.
But today, the only son is gone, and the wife is gone!
"Fight! Sooner or later, it's a death! Zhao Haisheng suddenly turned around and picked up a wooden stick from behind the door, wanting to go to Master Zhang's house to fight hard.
"Amitabha, good, good!" Just when Zhao Haisheng was about to find Master Zhang's house desperately, a young monk wearing a blue monk's robe appeared at the door, blocking Zhao Haisheng's way.
"Master, why did you stop the villain?" Zhao Haisheng asked.
The young monk who came put his hands together: "Please let go of your hatred for the time being, and don't go to Zhang's house to die in vain!" ”
Zhao Haisheng insisted on rushing over, but this young monk had infinite manpower, and when he stopped at the door, Zhao Haisheng couldn't get by. Seeing that he couldn't even get out of the door, Zhao Haisheng wanted to break in, but he was subdued by the monk with a light move, fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time, and the stick flew out.
The monk clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha! Please don't go your own way and bury a life in vain! But nothing was done! ”
"I want revenge! I want to avenge my mother and son! And my parents, and my four daughters! That Zhang family forced my parents to death, caused us to sell our daughter, and today killed my wife and children. The son is gone, and the only seedling of our Zhao family is gone! What does it mean for me to live alone in the world! I don't want to live anymore anyway! Master, don't stop me! Seeing that he was not the opponent of this monk, Zhao Haisheng knelt on the ground and begged bitterly.
The monk helped Zhao Haisheng up and asked softly, "Donor, do you really want to take revenge?" ”
"That's right! As long as he can kill the surname Zhang, even if he is broken, the villain is willing! Zhao Haisheng gritted his teeth and said.
"Amitabha, donor, the surname Zhang is damned! But donor, you can't die! If you want revenge, the poor monk can help you! But you have to be strong to live! Only by surviving can we truly take revenge! ”
"As long as the master is willing to help the little one kill the one surnamed Zhang, and the small revenge will be avenged, all of them will be under the master's orders!"
"Donor, do you know who is the root cause of today's tragedy?" The monk asked intentionally.
"It's the brute surnamed Zhang! And the triangular eye surnamed Chen! Zhao Haisheng gritted his teeth and said.
The monk laughed, then clasped his hands together and said in a straight voice: "Donor, the poor monk tells you that the root of the evil is not the one surnamed Zhang, nor the surname Chen, but the Tartar court!" It's the Tartar Imperial Court's ban on the sea! And the one surnamed Zhang is just a dog in the Tartar court! If you have the heart to take revenge, you should live until the day when you go to the north and drive the Tartars away! ”
"That's right! The master is right! Zhao Haisheng suddenly realized, "It's all because of the sea ban!" Without the ban on the sea, the villain would not have reached the point where it is today, the villain's parents would not die, his wife and children would not die, and the villain would not be separated from his daughter! But do we still have a chance to go north and drive the Tartars away? ”
"As long as the donor comes with me, our heaven and earth will send the donor to Qiongzhou to join the army, and we can let the donor take revenge!"
Zhao Haisheng agreed without hesitation: "As long as you can take revenge, whatever you say, master, the little ones have agreed!" ”
"Good!" The monk nodded, "Master Zhao, don't worry!" The poor monk promised you, and he would definitely take the head of the dog surnamed Zhang to avenge your wife and children! This matter is wrapped up in the poor monks. ”
Zhao Haisheng said: "Master, the little one wants to slaughter that beast with his own hands." ”
"Please rest assured! You go to Qiongzhou first, and then the poor monk will bring someone to catch that brute for you! Let you slaughter him with your own hands and avenge your wife and children! ”
Zhao Haisheng hurriedly knelt down and thanked: "Thank you, master!" The villain still doesn't know the master's name? ”
"The poor monk Hong Xiguan, the enlightened monk who did good deeds in the morning is the master of the poor monk." The young monk reported to the house. In fact, Hong Xiguan was also blaming himself in his heart, if he had come one step earlier, such a tragedy would not have happened, and Zhao Haisheng's woman and son would not have died.
Originally, Hong Xiguan and their mission here was to take people to Qiongzhou. Because of the Qing court's sea ban, a large number of fishermen lost their source of livelihood and struggled with poverty, and these fishermen were good human resources, and Wang Xinyu wanted to take them all away and increase the population of Hainan Island and Luzon.
Hong Xiguan explained: "Master Zhao, you buried them!" We'll have to leave at dawn! Otherwise, we won't be able to leave until dawn! ”
Zhao Haisheng agreed, and with tears in his eyes, he buried his wife and children overnight. Zhao Haisheng buried his wife and children next to his parents' cemetery.
The sky had just dawned, and Zhao Haisheng knelt in front of the tomb and said goodbye to his relatives. He didn't know when he would be able to come back and talk to his relatives again.
"Lady, Maomao, Dad, Mother! I'm leaving, leaving you alone here. But for the sake of revenge, I must leave! Rest assured! I, Zhao Haisheng, will definitely slaughter the enemy with my own hands and avenge you! Zhao Haisheng burst into tears, kowtowed a few times, and then left with Hong Xiguan.
Because the Qing soldiers are also going to celebrate the New Year, there are not many Qing soldiers who are still patrolling near the cordon at this time, and they have all been solved by Hong Xiguan and others.
When the two arrived at the beach, Zhao Haisheng realized that more than 50 people had been waiting in the woods by the sea for a long time. There were also several men dressed as chivalrous men patrolling the beach, each of whom was very strong, and some of them had the heads of Qing soldiers hanging from their waists.
A short time later, a huge ship appeared on the sea.
The giant ship anchored in the middle of the sea, lowered a small boat, and rowed in the direction of the beach.
When he was about to get on the boat, Hong Xiguan patted Zhao Haisheng on the shoulder: "Remember, when you get over there, no matter how hard you are, you have to persevere!" Only by surviving can we take revenge! ”
