The man with the scar on his face looked like he was looking at a dead person!
Also, look at what these villagers are doing, and what they eat is steamed buns, rice, and even vegetables!
It has been two months since the snowstorm started, and every household is hungry. In some villages, looting and looting is commonplace, and everyone has blocked their doors and even their own father is on guard.
What about in front of you? They were actually laughing and gathering together, eating, drinking, and discussing things?
Is this ridiculous?
"Brother, am I dazzled?"
“So many black-faced steamed buns!”
"There's actually some rice porridge, is that broken rice?"
"Why are they so united? Shouldn't they be so hungry that they are so skinny and wary of anyone they see?"
This village is evil, very evil!
"If we had known that there was so much food in Shenjia Village, we should have been the first to grab it!"
After going back and forth for two months, they were stunned to leave Baoshan alone and pick sesame seeds elsewhere?
No wonder I'm always hungry!
Upon hearing this, the man in the tiger hat looked at the couple who were talking and sighed quietly.
"Are you sure we won't die faster if we come to Shenjia Village first?"
The man followed his gaze and said, "."
Like, indeed, dying faster?
This assumption is doomed to fail.
Scarface has been staring at Shen Xingluo since just now. Food is not as important to him as that man.
"What did Huang Mazi say before that the person who hurt him had scars on his face?"
The only one in the whole village with a scar on his face was the one who had just passed by them.
At that time, he was very disdainful when Huang Mazi mentioned that the whole Shenjia Village was trembling with fear. What kind of ruthless person could he say? What kind of ruthless person could be more ruthless than him?
And the scar on his face makes him even more powerful. He is not afraid of scars!
However.
Just one face-to-face meeting made Scarface change his original mind.
This man has something wrong with his eyes!
Even he, who had been a bandit for three years, didn't have such a frightening look in his eyes. How could a small villager have such a frightening look?
It was at this moment that Scarface realized the seriousness of the problem.
It’s not that Huang Mazi is too frustrated, it’s that the enemy is too inhuman!
Shen Xingluo withdrew his intimidating gaze and stood beside Cheng Xi and asked in a low voice.
"Did they break in?"
"Yeah, I found it behind our house."
Cheng Xi put the end of the rope into his hand, "It's a bandit, I'll leave it to you."
bandit
Shen Xingluo's eyes sharpened again, and after a moment he nodded, "I'll go talk to my sixth uncle."
This is no small matter.
"Xingqi is at home. I have to go back to accompany her."
Cheng Xi took a look at him and found that there were no injuries and his clothes were clean. "Did you go up the mountain smoothly this time? Didn't you encounter any danger?"
"I encountered several wild boars, but none of them were injured."
Instead, he added some food rations to the villagers, so they had meat to eat in the past few days.
"By the way, you said before that you wanted to eat roast suckling pig?"
"Is there a little wild boar?"
"have."
Cheng Xi seemed to have thought of something, and her eyes were brighter than before, "Did you hunt alone?"
Shen Xingluo knew what she was thinking, and the smile on his lips melted.
"yes."
"Then I have to take it away."
Cheng Xi unceremoniously untied a small black wild boar tied to the tree of the ancestral hall in full view of the public and took it away.
The nearby villagers didn't say anything at all, but looked as if it was taken for granted.
Isn't it just leading a little wild boar?
A large wild boar weighing four to five hundred kilograms can be accepted.
Not to mention that the prey is all hunted by others. Going up the mountain will have to rely on others in the future, not to mention that there are ruffians outside who are always watching their food.
At this moment, the villagers in Shenjia Village had no idea what was important.
Cheng Xi was delighted on the way back.
I took eight with me when I came and one when I left. It’s not a loss this time!
What wins this time is not quantity, but quality!
The little black wild boar at her feet was indeed different from the ones she had seen before. Its mouth was a little short, its eyes were dark and very lively, and even its tail was different from wild ones.
Sure, this is a "stowaway".
After a smooth journey home, Shen Xingqi froze as soon as she saw the little guy.
"Oh my God, this little pig is so cute, isn't it?"
Small, round, with bright eyes.
It would be better if the fur was pink
"Sister-in-law, is this a new member of the chicken and duck pen? Do you want to keep it?"
"No."
Cheng Xi looked stubborn and said, "Eat it."
Roast suckling pig, banana-flavored, red and shiny roasted suckling pig, you can’t wait any longer!
***
The roast suckling pig was not finished in the end.
In the evening, Shen Xingluo brought back the latest news.
"Those bandits also have about three hundred accomplices?"
Why so many!
Has Shennong Mountain become a bandit den?
Cheng Xi only knows that the rolling mountains have given birth to countless precious medicinal materials and are a place that doctors from all over the world flock to. The wild fruits, wild beasts and fungi in the mountains have nourished countless people around the mountains.
But I never expected that it was also the cradle of bandits!
This is a big joke. What does the prefect of Lin'an Prefecture do for a living?
Hey, wait a minute, the prefect seems to be Zhou Xuzhi’s father.
Cheng Xi's mouth opened in surprise and closed instantly.
Poker face.
"How did they get to us?"
"To be precise, bandits have touched every village in this generation, and Shenjia Village is the last one."
Who would have thought that with such bad luck, I would end up kneeling on the last one.
Shen Xingluo didn't put much effort into interrogating them, and those few people honestly explained everything. They didn't even hide the location of the bandits, how many people there were, and how many things they had stolen and where they were placed.
At first, the scar-faced boss was holding his neck and looked stubborn, but in the end he didn't hold on for long.
"Bandits often ambush passers-by at the main road leading to the north of Lin'an Prefecture, but since the snowstorm began, no caravans have passed by, not even ordinary people passing by."
Therefore, these bandits who rely on robbery to survive naturally have no food to eat and have no choice but to leave the village.
"As for coming here, they went to Shiqiao Village yesterday and learned from Huang Mazi that there are experts in Shenjia Village."
To put it bluntly, they don't believe in evil and came here just for a while.
I never expected that I wouldn’t be able to go back right now.
"How will Uncle Six deal with them?"
Just keep it. The bandits will definitely become suspicious if the eight people don't go back. It's only a matter of time before they come over.
Just let it go. Don't think about it, that's absolutely impossible.
Cheng Xi felt a headache.
"Three hundred bandits who are capable of resisting are not a small number. The patrol team in our village killed 50 people, and most of them don't know how to use force. They are no match for them."
There is no numerical advantage to begin with, and individual combat capabilities are still outclassed by the opponent.
Ashamed. Ashamed.
"Only Bu Xia is trapped and guarding."
"Fortify yourself and defeat more with less."
The couple spoke almost at the same time.
Shen Xingluo and Cheng Xi looked up at each other again, and both saw the surprise and smile in each other's eyes.
