Deadly habit

At that time in the Republic of China, there was a bandit named Jack Qi in the Yellow River beach not far from Goebowwan Village. Jack Seven loves kidnapping for a living, and when he receives the ransom, he spends a lot of money; if the host's money is delivered late, he will cut the ears and nose of the hostages, or directly tear up the tickets.

On this day, Jack Seven received news from the informant that it was Sun Dongtao, the son of Sun Dashan, a wealthy household in Goebowwan Village, who had returned from outside. Jack Qi has been eyeing the Sun family for a long time, but unfortunately the old couple rarely go out on weekdays. There are also a large group of servant tenants in the high gate compound, and there is no chance to start. Now that Sun Dongtao is back, young people love to play. If they are tied up, it will not be a problem to ask for thousands of oceans.

The idea has been decided, Jack Seven will send a few men to follow. Things went surprisingly smoothly, and within two days, the stalker tied the person back. It turned out that Sun Dongtao took a servant to see his classmates in the county seat. After the stalkers heard about it, they tied up both the master and the servant while they were on their way back.

Jack Seven ordered to bring people over. I saw that both the master and the servant were tied up with five flowers, and a rag was stuffed into their mouths. Jack Qi took a closer look. One of them was fair-skinned, with a gentle appearance, and stood there shivering all over. This should be Sun Dongtao, and the other was dressed as a servant.

Jack Qi asked the servant, "Are you the servant of the Sun family?"

The man nodded in horror. Jack Qi smiled "hehe": "Okay, I'll let you go back now. When you go back, tell your grandson and say that his son is in my hands, and I will let him prepare 3,000 oceans within three days and send it under the South Bridge. Remember, don't think about playing tricks!" He picked up a knife from the table, threw it "whoosh", and the knife flew out against the servant's ear.

The servant ran away rolling and crawling. When the deadline for the agreed date arrived, Jack Seven asked people to go under the South Bridge to see, but there was nothing there. After receiving the report, Jack Seven was furious and immediately tore up the vote.

Jack Qi did not expect that when he turned around, his old nest was surrounded by officers and soldiers. Fortunately, he ran fast and was not caught. Only later did he know that the servants of the two people he had caught were indeed from the Sun family, but the other was not Sun Dongtao, but Sun Dongtao's classmates. That day, when this classmate saw Sun Dongtao, he wanted to stay at his house for a few days. Sun Dongtao had a stomachache on the way, so it was convenient to stop. The servants of the Sun family and this classmate also got out of the car and strolled around casually. Jack Seven's subordinates saw the old servants of the Sun family with a man who looked like a young master, and rushed up to arrest them. The servant returned to the Sun's house to tell the situation, but the Sun family didn't dare to speak out. It was not until someone from the classmate's family came over that Sun Dongtao told the truth. At this time, the classmate had already been torn apart by Jack Seven. The classmate's father and the county magistrate were brothers. The county magistrate heard that his nephew had been torn apart, and immediately sent a team of officers and soldiers to surround Jack Seven's lair, and Jack Seven managed to escape.

After learning the truth of the matter, Jack Qi regretted it a lot, but the matter had come to this point, he could only hold back his anger and wait for a comeback in the future.

After a period of time, the wind gradually subsided, and Jack Seven thought about going back to the old nest, because there was still a lot of money buried in the ground. At the beginning, he ran away in a hurry and didn't bring much money, and he saw that the money in his hand was almost spent. But he, Jack Seven, was still a wanted criminal, so he disguised himself and looked in the mirror, and he didn't even recognize himself, so he went on the road with satisfaction.

When you reach the South Bridge, you will find the old nest not far behind. At this time, Jack was thirsty. He saw an old man selling melons at the entrance of the village. He thought that no one would recognize him along the way, so he went to the melon stall and planned to buy a melon to quench his thirst. He picked a big watermelon, and after the old man said it, he gave the money to others. He took the kitchen knife by the stall, cut the watermelon, picked up a piece and ate it.

After Jack Qi finished eating the melon, a burst of tiredness hit him. He found a shade beside him and lay down, put his hat on his face, and fell asleep after a while.

After an unknown amount of time, He Laoqi suddenly felt that his whole body was not very energetic. He opened his eyes and saw that someone was tying him with a rope. He hurriedly shouted: "What are you doing?"

The person who tied Jack Qi quickly fastened the end of the rope and said, "Jack , you are tied up, I think you're being rude?"

Jack Qi was startled, pretending to be puzzled and asking, "What did you say? Who is Jack Seven?"

The speaker pulled a short gun from Jack Seven and said, "If you weren't Jack Seven, why would you be carrying Jack Qi's gun?"

Jack Qi said: "I picked it up on the way. Thinking of the chaos, I put it in my arms for self-defense."

Before the man could speak, the old man who sold melons came over and said, "Jack Qi, don't think that no one will recognize you if you disguise yourself."

Jack Qi scratched his neck and said, "I'm not Jack Seven, I've never even heard of this name."

The old man selling melons said: "Jack Seven, it's already here, you're still lying? Come to the lobby in a while, and I'll give you a whip. I'll see if you admit it!"

Hearing this, Jack fainted, but he couldn't figure it out, how could the old melon seller recognize him with such a clever disguise?

Jack Qi said, "I don't change my name when I'm a hero, and I don't change my surname when I sit down. That's right, I'm Jack Seven!" Then he rushed to the old man selling melons and said, "Old man, how did you recognize me?"

he old melon seller said that Jack Qi ate watermelon at his stall several years ago. The old man noticed that as long as this person eats watermelon and is gnawed by the watermelon seeds, even if he only takes a bite, he will throw away the piece of watermelon he is eating and replace it with another one. Each piece of watermelon has so many seeds. After eating a watermelon, he can throw away many pieces. While throwing the watermelon, he told his subordinates about "kidnapping" and "requesting money", which made the old man's heart skip a beat.

The old melon seller took a sigh of relief, and then said: "That incident left a deep impression on me. The money is hard to come by for serious people. In this area of ​​dozens of miles, you can eat watermelon like that, and you are Jack qi! Just now you The way you eat watermelon, I immediately think of what happened back then! While you are asleep, I will rush to report to the official..."

When Jack Qi heard this, he couldn't help lowering his head.
