Chapter 123： Save the children and kill the bandits!

Chapter 123 Save the children and kill the bandits!

The village chief looked at all the villagers, exhaled a long breath, and said loudly, "There will definitely be times when you go out this time and you will be desperate. If any of you wants to follow, you must have thought carefully about it. If you are afraid of death and don't want to go, no one will complain. You, as long as you go there, you must obey the order. If you are too timid to swing the knife and harm your brother, don't blame everyone for looking down on you! "

A bachelor stepped forward and shouted, "Village chief, count me as one. I'm just an old man. Even if I die, I'm not afraid of dragging down others. I grew up watching Gou Sheng. These bandits are so wicked. Nothing can touch our children!”

"Yes, don't touch the children! These people must die, count me among them! I have killed all the wild wolves, are there still a few bandits left? Let's eliminate harm for the people!"

“Yes, eliminate harm for the people!”

“From now on I will be bragging when I go out. Who can kill wolves and bandits better than me?”

I have to say that on the way into the mountains, the young men in the village have been tempered by hardships and become more ferocious, and they no longer look honest and cowardly.

In the blink of an eye, all the young men stood up, and no one was afraid of death and retreated.

The village chief, Uncle Zhao and others were extremely happy, and Aunt Wu and Uncle Wu even cried and kowtowed.

“We kowtow to everyone, woo woo, thank you everyone for saving Gou Sheng. When Gou Sheng grows up, let Gou Sheng take care of everyone in his old age.”

The bachelor picked up the two of them and responded nonchalantly, "They are all his own children. How could he not rescue them? When Gou Sheng grows up and becomes successful, just buy us a few more jars of wine to drink."

The village chief discussed a few words with Uncle Zhao, Li Laosi and Liu Biao, and then began to assign tasks.

Prepare sacks stuffed with hay to pretend to be grain.

But the silver is best to be real. It can be less than one hundred taels. You can use more copper coins to increase the weight and make a lot of appearances.

Be prepared to be discovered by bandits and lose the opportunity. When paying in this way, you can also take advantage of the bandits to check the money, catch the bandits off guard, and gain an advantage for the villagers.

Everyone brings hatchets, bows and arrows, thicker armor, and three days' worth of dry food.

Each family rummaged through all the white clothes or sheets and distributed them to help everyone hide their whereabouts...

As orders were passed down one by one, the entire camp and all the caves became busy.

There was a piece of ivory-white material in the package of the Li family, and there were more than a dozen sorghum flour pancakes for lunch, all of which were taken by Tao Hongying.

Mrs. Li took out the pocket containing money at home. Jiayin ran over and hugged her grandma's knee. She was also thinking about Gou Sheng, wiping his nose and always following An Jiaxi to tease her.

Old Mrs. Li quickly took out the silver coin given by Mr. Wen, added a few extra pieces of broken silver and a large handful of copper coins, collecting more than ten taels, and then stuffed the rest of the silver back.

She whispered as she carried her granddaughter down the vine ladder.

"Fu Niu, we don't feel bad about money. Every family in the village doesn't have much money, so I'm afraid they won't be able to raise much. Grandma took a little more, but our family will always have a chance to earn it back in the future. Poor Gou Sheng is only eight years old. He must be rescued, otherwise his parents will not survive.”

Actually, she felt distressed. It was not easy for her family to save some money, so just taking it out like this felt like digging out her heart.

But things are prioritized, and in order to save people, we can’t be stingy at this time.

Think about it, if Jia An Jiaxi was arrested today, the people in the village would definitely do their best to help.

Every family thought as Mrs. Li thought. While the men were stuffing hay into their bags, the women took out their money and put it on the table.

There were broken pieces of silver and copper coins. Sister-in-law Sun even brought over the five taels of silver that Mr. Wen had given her earlier even with her injuries.

Aunt Wu San couldn't bear to cry anymore. This was the foundation of every family, and she had to sacrifice it for her son at this time.

Mr. Wen also sent more than twenty taels of silver. "We only have this money, so we hope it can be of help. Speaking of which, those bandits may have followed us, and we have caused trouble for everyone."

The village chief quickly waved his hand, "Mr. Wen, don't say that. These bandits are too close to us. Even if they didn't follow you here yesterday, they will always come back in the future. If you can hide from the first grade of junior high school, you can't hide from the fifteenth grade. Everyone is still unprepared." , I don’t blame you.”

The villagers all nodded, regretting their lack of vigilance before.

But there is no use regretting, we can only try our best to make up for it.

Li Laosi and Liu Biao shook their money bags, and when they saw the difference in weight, they put them away.

Everyone checked their knives, bows and arrows, dry food and fire bags, and then set off.

At this time, Doctor Zhang came over, followed by Sister-in-law Qiong.

Doctor Zhang took out a small medicine bottle and said, "Here are some poisons that I kept for self-defense. After you pass by, if you can find an opportunity, pour it into the water and keep it for the bandits to drink. They will be completely dead in half a quarter of an hour." ”

Everyone gasped and subconsciously thought about whether they had offended this old man.

There is no separation between medicine and poison. Whoever makes the old man unhappy doesn't even know how he died...

Physician Zhang noticed everyone’s expressions, raised his chin proudly, and snorted arrogantly.

On the other hand, Sister-in-law Qiong, who was on the side, took the medicine bottle, stuffed it into her arms, and said, "I know how to do light martial arts. Madam asked me to go with you to save people."

Both Li Laosi and Liu Biaotou refused. Poisonous Poison and a master joined them, and they were more confident about this trip.

Jiayin lay on grandma’s back and shouted softly, “Daddy, daddy!”

When Li Laosi heard this, he stepped forward and pulled his daughter's hat, "Don't worry, dad will be back soon!"

Jiayin is very worried. The loneliness in her previous life made her particularly cherish the family affection she got again. She wishes she could be like a hen and protect the whole family like chickens. She cannot be in any danger or suffer in the least.

It’s a pity that the world does not allow her to get what she wants.

"Dad, come back soon." "Okay, listen to grandma at home." Li Laosi touched his daughter's face.

Mrs. Li thought about how she was worried about eating alone every day at home, so she talked a little more.

"Fourth, if everything goes well and Gou Sheng is rescued and everyone is safe, let's see if we can grab some food. The food we brought home is almost enough. Those Japonica rice noodles prepared for Fu Niu It’s also bottomed out. If I cook for Mrs. Cui tomorrow, I can only eat sorghum noodles.”

These words reminded not only Li Laosi, but the village chief and Uncle Zhao also opened their eyes.

The village chief immediately responded, "Yeah, I forgot about it. Our family doesn't have much food, but thanks to your family's support on the road, everyone has to pick mountain products to persevere."

But in the final analysis, no matter how hard Laosi and Jiayi carry it, they still can't carry a few bags of food. Your family will definitely run out of food. I was still thinking of settling down for a few days and letting everyone go hunting more, but this happened. "

Uncle Zhao also nodded, "All the children and sick people in Fu Niu's family are eating the fine grains. I can really get some fine grains this time, so I can give Fu Niu some more."

Everyone was a little excited when they heard this. A man laughed and said, "We originally rescued people, but now we seem to be going to fight against the bandits?"

Everyone also laughed, and the tense atmosphere was much less tense for the moment.

Li Laosi was afraid of wasting the opportunity, so he nodded with the village chief, Uncle Zhao and others, and then shouted to everyone.

“Go out, save the children, and grab food!”

“Let’s go, let’s go!”

Everyone waved their sharp hatchets and dived into the forest!

The village chief was worried that the bandits would move the tiger away from the mountain, leaving seven or eight people behind.

So, including Uncle Wu, there were a total of twenty young people in the village, plus a sister-in-law Qiong.

Seeing them disappear without a trace, the village chief took a deep breath and loudly ordered the people who stayed behind.

"Hurry up and get water and firewood, and then go into the cave. No one is allowed to come down until the fourth child and the others come back! No one can leave the cave entrance. I have guarded it day and night. Do you understand?"

“I understand!” The old man, woman and children all responded and then got busy.

Carry water and firewood, and prepare sticks and sickles to put at the entrance of the cave.

The pyre that was once considered convenient for getting firewood has now become a hidden danger for people to easily crawl into the cave entrance. The women pulled and pulled the pyre until it fell down.

Sister-in-law Qiong followed the team to rescue people, but only the sick Mrs. Cui was left in the small cave.

Ount Li didn’t wait for Mr. Wen to speak, and called Tao Hongying to come over and help.

Tao Hongying hesitated and only scooped out two ladles of sorghum noodles, but took some more mountain products.

Mrs. Li hugged her granddaughter and felt guilty when she looked at her almost empty grain jar.

She is happy that her granddaughter is very capable, but she is more afraid.

There is no unreasonable blessing in the world. If the family keeps enjoying the blessings with the granddaughter, will it shorten the granddaughter's life?

 Along the way, she never declined to help the people in the village. She also urged the Li family to do more than they could bear.

The reason is nothing more than wanting to accumulate more virtue!

Save one more life, do one more good deed, will your granddaughter’s blessings be compensated?

She really wanted to ask the gods for help, but unfortunately she couldn't find the place, so she had to fumble around.

“Hongying, there is no one around Mrs. Cui, please remember to take care of her more.”

"I know, mother, it's up to you and third sister-in-law at home." Tao Hongying responded and was about to leave, but Jiayin asked her eldest brother to follow her.

As expected, Mr. Wen was worried, and with the Li family as his companions, there was no need to avoid suspicion, so he took Wen Hai and stayed in the small cave.

Having been busy all morning, it was already noon, and Tao Hongying was busy cooking.

Jiaren sat at the stove, helping to light the fire and practicing left-hand calligraphy on the stone slab.

Sure enough, Mr. Wen noticed it quickly. He sat aside and looked at it for a long time, then asked, "How did you practice left-hand calligraphy?"

“Sir, it’s because my right hand is inconvenient.” Jiaren responded respectfully, and then stretched out his right hand hidden in his sleeve.

There is no doubt about the medical skills of Divine Doctor Zhang. Although Jiaren’s right hand was mutilated, it was treated very well and has now been completely healed.

But because **** are missing, it is still a little ugly.

The remaining three fingers can still move, but they are not as flexible as before.

Tao Hongying felt sorry for her nephew and wanted to leave a good impression on Mr. Wen, so she helped him out.

"We encountered a pack of wolves in the forest earlier. In order to save his brother, this child blocked the wolf's mouth with his hand."

Mr. Wen nodded and looked at Jiaren with a bit of appreciation and pity in his eyes. "The left-hand character will not delay the scientific examination. I have practiced it for several years and can teach you some skills."

Jiayin, who was squatting aside, finally opened his mouth and smiled.

Her eldest brother’s injured hand has always been a concern for her, and now it has attracted Mr. Wen’s attention. In the future, she will find an opportunity to make gloves for her eldest brother, which can always be more beautiful. For example, deerskin is very close to the skin color...

Not to mention that Good News was thinking about this, Li Laosi and others went all the way to the northeast over the mountains and ridges. Halfway through, they actually found two lines of footprints left by the bandits.
