Chapter 65 -65
I don’t know how long it took, but I was awakened by the stinging pain on my ankle. When I looked down, I saw a fat cat holding me with his claws. He glared at me with his beard and staring at me, looking extremely angry. When I saw that there was a litter of kittens a few meters away from me. It turned out that this abandoned and broken thatched house was the nest of this female cat.
I walked out of the broken thatched house, followed the city wall, and sneaked to the calligraphy and painting shop.
In the calligraphy and painting shop, Chu Runxuan and Shunwa were sitting inside. They asked me where I went last night. I couldn't make up a lie, so I had to tell the truth and they punched and kicked me.
Later, when they were tired of fighting, they asked me to go out to set up a seal carving stall and couldn't eat for a day.
I went out alone to set up a seal carving stall, facing the city wall, and once again had the idea of escaping.
A group of children ran past under the walls, and they ran and sang:
Shame, shy, snatch your face,
Pick a canal and plant peas.
No charges this year, next year,
Next year, I will wait for the thief to steal.
When I looked at these children, my heart was filled with infinite yearning. I also sang this nursery rhyme when I was a child. In private schools, we often sang this nursery rhyme to ridicule those classmates who did the wrong things.
Behind the children was Bingliuzi, and he came to deliver steamed buns to me again. When I saw the steamed buns, I burst into tears.
Bingliuzi said: "Brother, can we run together?
I said, "Okay. But where are we going?"
Bingliuzi said: "As long as we have money, we can go anywhere."
I said, "The problem is we don't have money."
Bingliuzi said: "It's not easy to make money. We'll steal, rob, and then go far."
I looked at Bingliuzi with admiration and felt that Bingliuzi was smarter than me. People knew to get some money and escape from afar. Why didn't I expect it?
I asked, "Where can we get money from? We don't know where their money is hidden. We can't sell those fake things from them."
Bingliuzi said: "If you want to make money, you won't make money from here. I heard that there is a good thing in the county government. Do you dare to do it?"
I asked, "What good thing?"
Bingliuzi said: "Golden Seal, that's a real good thing. If we get that thing, we will never have to worry about food and drink in our lives."
I said, "If you want to do it, run far away after doing it."
Bingliuzi said: "You can't talk nonsense. They can't tell big eyes, small eyes, or eye contact. They are all locals."
I said, "Are you a foreigner? Where is your home?"
Bingliuzi said: "Far away, in Shandong. I fled to the famine. All my family died, and I was the only one left."
I said, "I'm alone too."
Bingliuzi said: "We will be brothers in the future."
I said, "Brother."
I know that the gold seals in the county government are absolutely valuable, but I feel very scared. There are so many people in the county government government, and there are guns. They are very cautious. Not to mention not being able to enter, even if they go in, it will be difficult to get out. If they are caught, it will definitely not be a joke. If they are not careful, they will even lose their lives.
However, Bingliuzi said: "The darker the light is under the light. This is called darker under the light. Usually, people have a valuable thing that they keep in mind every day. They have to look at it several times every night when they get up. If you want to steal, you don't even have a chance. The golden seal belongs to my husband. Who cares whether the golden seal is there or not? Who will get up several times overnight to look at it? Besides, the golden seal has been around for hundreds of years and nothing has happened. Who can know that the golden seal is targeted by us?"
I think Bingliuzi is right. The more dangerous the place is, the safer it is.
I asked: "How did you know that the county government has such a golden seal?"
Bingliuzi said: "Two years ago, before you came to Baoxing County, a group of thieves were preparing to steal gold seals. When they left the last door, they were discovered by patrolmen. When they went to chase them, they left the gold and silver and escaped. From then on, the situation about the gold seal has been widely spread. This gold seal was given to Baoxing County by Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty. That year, Emperor Yongzheng passed by Baoxing County and suddenly fell seriously ill, and the imperial doctor had no choice. The magistrate of Baoxing County presented folk remedies to cure Yongzheng's illness. After Yongzheng returned to the capital, he gave Baoxing County a piece of gold seal, with two big words on it, and the four characters on the gold seal were Baoxing County. Over the past few hundred years, Baoxing County has issued important official documents, stamped with the seal of this gold seal. The Republic of China replaced the Qing Dynasty, but the official documents were still issued with this gold seal."
I asked, "Do you know where the golden seal will be collected at night?"
Bingliuzi said: "There are only those few houses in the county government. As long as I go in, I can search every one of them."
I said, "But how do you get in and how do you search?"
Bingliuzi said: "You underestimate me too much. My nickname is Bingliuzi, and it is definitely not a false reputation. If I say something, you will know my methods."
I asked, "What's the matter?"
Bingliuzi said: "I once made a bet with someone that he would steal the shorts his wife was wearing within three days. The man didn't believe it and bet a sheep. As a result, three days later, I took her wife's shorts to find him. He lost and led a sheep to me."
I suddenly felt that this icy boy who was depressed all day long might be a thief like Bodhi. I asked, "How did you steal someone's wife's pants? Did you steal it from someone's wardrobe?"
Bingliuzi said: "No, she stole the shorts she wore, and when she stole, her man was still by her side."
I thought about it and said, "It must be his man who fell asleep, and this woman fell asleep, well, maybe you gave them sweat medicine."
Bingliuzi said disdainfully: "What kind of good guy is the one who uses sweat medicine? I stole the shorts from the woman in front of them."
I felt extremely magical, so I urged him to quickly tell me how he stole the shorts that a woman was wearing.
Bingliuzi said: "One year in my hometown in Shandong, I bet with a newly married man that he could steal the shorts his wife was wearing, and the deadline was three days. This man said that I was bragging and let his wife wear shorts every day within these three days to see how I steal them. I said that if I steal, he would give me a sheep; if I didn't steal, give him a sheep. He agreed."
I said, "Yes, my wife is wearing shorts every moment. I see how you steal it?"
Bingliuzi said: "Bingliuzi's name is not called in vain, listen down. In the first two days, the couple did not sleep all night. The woman grabbed her pants and the man also helped her grab the woman's pants. I slept soundly at my home, and didn't even look at the wall of his house. It was not until the third night that I went out."
I laughed loudly when I forgot that I had been beaten and kicked by Shunwa and Chu Runxuan. The funny scene of the couple holding their pants tightly appeared in front of me.
Bingliuzi continued: "They didn't fall asleep all night the other night. On the third night, they fell asleep early. Although they fell asleep, the woman was still wearing shorts and holding her pants with both hands. I listened to them snoring in the room and wanted to enter the room, but the door was closed inside, not only closed, but also the door latch was inserted with nails. In this way, no matter what, the door latch could not be opened. I pushed the window, and the window latch was closed inside, and the window latch was still inserted, which means I couldn't get into this room."
I said, "If you can't enter the room, why do you steal your pants?"
Bingliuzi said, "I can still steal my pants when I can't enter the room. I squatted under the windowsill and listened to the movement inside. In the middle of the night, I heard the man get up. He rustled the piston under the bed, then put the pants in the quilt and peed. It was winter and the weather was very cold. People put the pants in the quilt and peed. After the man finished peeing, he put the pants under the bed and lay down to sleep. He found that the mattress was wet. He thought his wife had wet the bed, so he pushed his wife and said, "Why did you wet the bed?" His wife was sleeping soundly. When he touched the mattress, it was indeed wet. He thought he had wet the bed, took off his pants, threw it on the ground, and prepared to wash the next day. Do you know why the mattress is wet?"
I thought about it and said, "It must be that the man has urinated."
Bingliuzi said: "Why can men urinate by using this urinary pot every night? Think about it again."
I shook my head and said I couldn't think of it.
Bingliuzi said: "I slipped to the toilet at the door of his house at dusk, drilled a small hole in the bottom of the urinary porch, and then pasted it with mud. The urinary porch is made of clay pots, and a few drills have a hole. As soon as the man urinated, he urinated and urinated, so his mattress became wet."
I laughed, but I didn't expect Bingliuzi to be a wizard.
Bingliuzi continued: "His wife threw her pants on the ground and continued to sleep. He thought the end of the mattress was wet, so he changed the other end and continued to sleep. The couple hadn't slept for two days, and were extremely sleepy at this moment, and forgot about the bet with me. I licked a small hole in their paper window, put the prepared thin bamboo pole in, and hooked out his wife's pants."
I was so angry that I couldn't bear to laugh. I really didn't expect that a shorts worn by a woman would be stolen.
Bingliuzi said, "After stealing the woman's shorts, I squatted under the window of his house for eavesdropping. After a while, the man woke up and wanted to do that with the woman. The woman hummed and acted coquettishly. Suddenly the man exclaimed and sat up. He shouted, "Why didn't the shorts be seen?" The woman woke up, and she said, "The shorts were wet, and I threw them on the ground. Suddenly they saw a hole in the window paper, and they screamed together. The man complained, "I told you to wear it well, you insist on taking it off. Now, I took off a sheep."
I laughed again when I heard this, and Binglizi also laughed. Suddenly, we saw Shunwa coming from a distance. He said, "You two are laughing at me, why are you laughing! Come over and go to Houli Village with me, and I want to see what the hell is blocking the way along the way."
