Chapter 65 65 Distress

Zhou Jia turned his head and saw that everyone was dragging their tired footsteps, all walking weakly, and shouted in front: "Everyone hold on for a while, and we can stop and rest in the woods ahead."

The village chief also roared, "Get your energy out, use a little more effort, and we'll have a good night's rest when we get there."

After listening to this, the adults and children all followed the car in a hurry. After walking for another hour, they finally saw a small forest. The mule car in front stopped. The carts and the burdens are circled in the middle, and the people build tents around the grain and grass.

After feeding the animals with forage and water, and putting everything in place, Aunt He and Li Mei lit the firewood, set the stove on fire, and began to boil the water.

The children fell to the ground, unable to scream. Everyone felt that the soles of their feet were excruciatingly painful, and their legs were sore and weak.

After seeing Li Yu, he said to the people sitting on the ground, "Don't sit still, pat your calf with your hands to loosen it up, or you won't be able to walk tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Also, it's better to apply a warm handkerchief to your side. foot."

After hearing this, someone quickly got up and helped the child to slap, rub their calf, and slapped their own.

Li Yu didn't say much, took Li Qing and Zhao Di and they relaxed their muscles, took out the bacon and taro and started to cook the bacon and taro rice. Zhou Jia also clumsily helped to scrape the taro, and was made fun of by Zhao Di and Laidi. Afterwards, he put down the taro and helped Li Yu make the fire.

When Jixiang and Ruyi set up their tents, Li Yu's bacon rice cooked with bacon and taro was cooked. Aunt He and Li Mei cooked a pot of sauerkraut soup, and Zhou Jia called all the families who helped to eat together. meal.

After everyone had eaten, the village chief came over and said to Li Yu: "Xiaoyu, we have to keep watch all night. Everyone is tired. I will let Yaohui and Chen Zhong, a few of them, stay at midnight, and you will be at the end of the night. "

Li Yu thought for a moment and nodded in response, "Okay, we'll be here at the end of the day, and you tell the people on duty at night not to fall asleep."

"I will greet them." The village chief staggered back.

Li Yu took Laidi to the tent and fell asleep, while Chen Yaohui, Chen Zhong and the three men in the village were drowsy sitting in front of the fire.

At the beginning of Zi Shichu, there was a sudden sound of the crispness of the branch being stepped on, and the sound reached Chen Yaohui's ears. Chen Yaohui stood up and shouted loudly, "Who?" I only saw a pitch-dark patch in the woods, and there was no movement at all.

Chen Zhong laughed, "No one! Ah Hui, you are too nervous!"

Butcher He shook his head, "I also think something is wrong, let's call Mr. Zhou and Xiaoyu and the others to take a look!"

Chen Yaohui looked at Chen Zhong, "I heard it clearly, don't come here beasts! I'll go and call up Xiaoyu and the others."

Chen Yaohui walked towards Li Yu's tent. Li Yu had already come out of the tent with a crossbow and a quiver on his back. Chen Yaohui stepped forward and said to Li Yu, "Xiaoyu, uncle thinks something is wrong."

Li Yu nodded, "I heard it," Li Yu pointed to the fire and instructed Chen Yaohui, "Let everyone burn the fire a little bit, and I'll call Ruyi and them up."

Zhou Jia had come out of the tent with Ruyi auspiciousness and lucky luck. Li Yu looked at Zhou Jia, "Zhou Jia, you go into the tent so that we won't be distracted."

"You also have to be careful." Zhou Jia shook Li Yu's hand and went back to the tent.

Ruyi crawled up a big tree, the dim moonlight shone through the bare tree trunk in the forest, Ruyi lay on the tree and saw the trunk in front of her, there was a faint shadow.

Ruyi got down from the tree and whispered to Li Yu: "Miss Li, there are probably people in ambush in front of us. Seeing that there are so many of us, they probably want to rob us when we are asleep."

Li Yu arranged in a low voice, "Their goal is the food in the car, Jixiang will guard the animals, Lucky, Ruyi and I will guard the convoy."

After hearing this, everyone silently followed Li Yu's arrangement and stayed at their posts. Li Yu said to Chen Yaohui and Butcher He, "Everyone, please protect our people with machetes."

The bandits hiding behind the tree looked at Li Yu and their camp and saw that the fire was burning even more vigorously, and one of them complained in a low voice, "It's the big head who woke them up, and if I say that the third master was too careful, it's just a bunch of mud-legged people. If you rush there early, it will take less than half an hour to solve it."

One person asked in a low voice, "What about the third master? Up or down?"

The third master looked at Li Yu's camp and said, "Wait a minute, it won't do us any good if they fight hard. Besides, they can't survive the day they've climbed the mountain today, so let's save some energy." Everyone had to lie down. He went down and looked at the fire on the opposite side from a distance.

Li Yu leaned against the tree trunk and seemed to fall asleep. Only those who knew her knew that she was squinting and pricking up her ears to notice the subtle changes around her.

After another half an hour, it was time for Zi Chou to meet. The bandits looked at Li Yu and the others. The fire was still burning vigorously, but the people had already calmed down and stopped moving.

The third master thought to himself that it was almost the same, and even vigilant people couldn't stand it after a long day of exhaustion.

The third master raised his hand and a dozen people quickly rushed towards Li Yu and his camp. When the bandits were about ten meters away from the camp, they jumped up like lightning, pulling their bows and shooting arrows in one go. After the sound of breaking the air, the bandits in front of them fell down, and the bandits in the back began to flinch, and the third master shouted loudly: "Everyone spread out, come on! They are just begging for a bow!"

Chen Yaohui and Butcher He stared wide-eyed at the bandits rushing towards them, all trembling hands clenched the hatchet in their hands and made a desperate stance.

I saw the bandits scattered and rushed towards the grain cart. Li Yu was half-squatting behind a big tree, holding his crossbow flat, and pressing the motive, there were a few soft sounds of tower, tower, and arrows pierced through the air from the hand crossbow. When they came out, two mountain bandits fell down clutching their throats in an instant. Li Yu moved behind the tree like lightning, and Ruyi cooperated with each other to attack the mountain bandits on both sides.

Under the light and dark attack of Li Yuhe Ruyi, the mountain bandits collapsed seven or eight in a blink of an eye, and the third master lost most of his manpower in a blink of an eye, and hurriedly shouted: "Go back, they have experts to protect them. "

The mountain bandit hurriedly turned around and fled Ruyi holding a bow and arrow to chase after him. Li Yu stopped him and said, "If Ruyi comes back, the poor bandits don't chase him."

Li Yu and Ruyi raised their crossbows and bows and watched as the bandits escaped before relaxing. Chen Yaohui and Butcher He gathered around Li Yu and Ruyi. Zhou Jia and Zhou Bo also got out of the tent, followed by Li Mei. Aunt He and the others also came out.

Li Yu said to Jixiang and Zhaocai: "You two take Uncle Chen and the others to see if all the bandits are dead, be careful not to be plotted against."

The two of them respectfully held torches and walked towards the fallen bandit with Chen Yaohui and the others.

Zhou Jia said to Aunt He, "Aunt He, pour some hot water for Xiaoyu and Ruyi to wash."

Li Mei looked at Li Yu worriedly, "Yu'er, where are you not hurt?"

Li Yu saw Zhou Jia and Li Mei were looking at him worriedly, and said with a smile, "Don't worry about me, I'm fine."

"It's fine, just wash first and then take a break." Li Mei went to Li Yu's tent and took out a handkerchief, wet it in the basin, wrung it dry, and handed it to Li Yu.

Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu's tired look and swallowed what she wanted to say. After Li Yu's simple cleaning, she sent her to the entrance of the tent and watched her enter the tent and rest.
