And Xiaoman also wanted to verify his new weapon.
Because Aunt Jiang said that if someone who is not strong enough uses a knife, the blade will easily get stuck on the bone, which is not easy to use.
Well!
Xiaoman slashed the wild boar's neck with a knife. The knife was indeed jammed and his face was covered in blood.
The mace is a specially made one with sharp stone chips embedded in it, making it strong and angular.
Xiaoman only tried it once and fell in love with it. It was very easy to swing, and it made a series of bloody holes...
It seems like now, just after being hit, the bearded man is covering his bleeding head, staggering and unable to find the north.
The man with disheveled hair next to him couldn't get up after lying on the ground.
Seeing two people lying down after saying "Ahhh", Li Laoshi, who had been hiding behind him, panicked.
He finally knew that the rumors about Yanqiao were true, and now it was his side that was unlucky.
Li Laoshi didn't care whether his companions were still hanging or lying down. He ran towards the bottom of the mountain and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The speed was so fast that Xu Errui, who was chasing after him, almost lost him...
It's not that Li Laoshi has any escape skills and can suddenly disappear on the spot.
There was no other reason. It was already dark, and Li Laoshi, who was blindfolded, could not see the terrain under his feet. As soon as he started, he stepped on the ground and rolled down the slope. Fortunately, there was a tree blocking the way, otherwise he would have to pick up people at the foot of the cliff. .
Being dragged back to the woods by Xu Erruiti with his hair pulled back, Li Laoshi was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Grandpas, please forgive me! I'm an honest man, I'm really just here to collect medicine!"
Xu Errui tied up the two who were knocked over by Xiao Man, then untied and tied up the one on the tree, and then began to interrogate Li Laoshi.
Li Laoshi spoke of being an honest man, telling the story of how he was tortured by the medical shack and coerced by these refugees.
He was so aggrieved that he cried with snot and tears: "Grandpa, little grandpa, I am an honest man. I don't steal or rob. Even when I walk, I walk around other people's gardens, for fear that others will say I lost a green onion.
I was forced to go up the mountain this time. Unfortunately, my lovely wife at the bottom of the mountain is still waiting for me. If her husband cannot return, she will go to someone else's shack to sleep together! ! "
He talked and sang.
Xu Errui and Xiao Man's howling made their heads buzz. Xiao Man roared angrily: "Shut up, who told you to watch the road and sneak into the forest with bad intentions?"
Because the two families had to work on the slopes every day, they had already walked out of a path. Since these people were already in the fields, they could find their way over.
But they wanted to leave from the forest. This was not a good purpose, it was just a sneak attack.
Li Laoshi couldn't tell the truth. They had the idea of stealing things. Of course, if the owner still wanted to stop him because he had a small family... they would rob them by force.
He couldn't admit this. He rolled his eyes and pointed at the three people with beards who were still dizzy next to him: "It's them. They said they wanted to rob you."
Next to him, the bearded man and others who were already awake shouted: "You led this road, Li Laoshi. You keep saying that you are an honest person, but you didn't sincerely want to collect medicine in the village."
The four people accused each other of being at fault.
When they had enough arguing, Little Man Ye, who had been hiding in the dark, understood the whole story and came over with a cane: "Children, don't worry, they are not good people anyway, we won't beat them, just leave them like this!"
He turned around and said to the four refugees: "I'm sorry, brothers, the grass roots and barks eaten on the mountain cannot enter the mouth and cannot be treated as guests. Please be more patient!"
After saying that, regardless of whether his words were credible or not, and regardless of the pleadings of the four refugees, he walked back slowly on crutches.
Xiaoman and Xu Errui said hello and immediately stepped forward to help: "Master, be careful!"
Seeing that they were some distance away, Xiaoman whispered: "Master, why don't you just..."
Mr. Xiao Man said in a deep voice: "Shut up. I'll tell you something when I get back."
Jiang Zhi and others all listened to the movement in the forest. Starting from the conversation before Xiao Man took action, even though they did not go in, they could still hear what was going on inside.
As soon as Xiaoman came out, he saw the nervous elder brother and Aunt Jiang, who was frowning slightly.
Thinking that the family was worried about the four refugees, Xiao Man quickly said: "Brother, Aunt Jiang, Brother Errui and I have tied them up tightly and they are still hanging on the tree. They will definitely not be able to escape."
Jiang Zhi nodded: "Everyone has been tired for a long day, so let's eat first!"
Since there were four refugees who were collecting herbs, he and Chunfeng had already checked the surroundings. If there was no one else, it was safe for the time being.
Everyone has been repairing the house this day, and everyone is tired, so they need to eat first.
After eating and drinking enough, you will have the strength to fight when bandits come.
The food has been put on the table long ago, stewed, stir-fried and steamed. The staple food is still soupy, but it has been replaced with cornmeal instead of green kudzu root powder.
Xiaomannai specially steamed the big-foot buns today for several people to share.
If it weren't for the fact that refugees came up the mountain to make people feel uncomfortable, Jiang Zhi felt that this was a food tasting event.
"Big Foot Bun" is the place to eat.
The filling is fried pumpkin sweet potato fries, which is full of salty, sweet and spicy. The cornmeal shell is soft, waxy and slightly sweet, and the mulberry leaves wrapped on the outside have a light fragrance, and the taste is distinct.
Next to it are fried sweet potato tips and stewed pork head. Both meat and vegetables are included, which makes it difficult for people to think that this is an escape from famine.
Of course, you also need to deliberately ignore the shouts in the forest, those are the real refugees.
Everyone was unhappy with the meal and hurriedly filled their stomachs. After Chunfeng and Qiaoyun took their children to the side, Xu Dazhu asked Xiaoman: "Why did you hit someone just now? Why didn't you listen to what Er Rui said? ?”
Aunt Jiang once said that if you want to lead to a trap, you can't act rashly.
Xiaoman escaped today because the four people underestimated the enemy at first, or just wanted to steal things, and had no murderous intention.
If it were a real bandit who came, Xiaoman would die on the spot. The following people would use other methods to leave the children, the elderly and the sick, and casualties would be inevitable.
Xiaoman scratched his head, squeezed out a smile and said, "I, I heard Brother Errui say stop talking nonsense, so I thought he was going to take action."
Xu Dazhu reprimanded: "You are about to turn sixteen. When will you change your frivolous temper?"
Xiaoman was a little dissatisfied: "Brother, you are just sick, that's why you are so timid.
You see, I took care of those people easily, even Brother Errui didn't have to do anything. "
Xu Dazhu was so angry that he slapped the wood under him: "You are justified in disobeying me. You have to know that there is a big family behind you. If something happens to you, what will we do! If I am still alive, you will not be able to go to heaven. People stopped me.”
Seeing that his eldest brother was angry, and then thinking about having a family that he had to rely on himself, Xiaoman finally lowered his head: "I was wrong, from now on... I must be steady!"
At the same time, Mr. Xiaoman said: "Xiaoman, you are a good boy. You still know how to talk about this today. You are more sensible than before. You will have to make more turns in your mind when doing things in the future."
Xiaoman was a little happy to be praised by his grandfather, but because his elder brother was staring at him, he had to suppress his pride.
