After another incense stick, Lu Fengbai informed Xiao Xiao and Lin Manliu, and left with ten people from Goatabazi. In the end, only Lin Manliu and Xiao were left in the ancestral hall. Thirty-four people, led by Xiao and Chongying, took a break in the ancestral hall and prepared to leave for the third and fourth batches.
On a hill outside Goat Bazi not long after Lu Fengbai left, there stood a man wearing the armor of a Sun Soldier. He watched the little bits of fire moving away from Goat Bazi, and there was an unsettling look in his eyes. It was difficult to guess his purpose. As he waved his hand, the dense forest behind him suddenly became agitated. In an instant, nearly thirty people walked out from behind the tree trunks and among the grass. There were many other figures that could only be vaguely seen in the dense forest. His body shape.
Except for the leader, who is wearing the armor of a flaming sun soldier, the rest of the people are dressed like the bandits who invaded Goat Bazi a few days ago. There is no firelight here, only with the help of the subtle moonlight above the sky. Only with bright light can we clearly see someone standing here.
After seemingly confirming the fire that left twice, a man wearing ordinary clothes came forward, immediately knelt down in front of the armored man and said: "My confirmation is complete, the person in the dam is currently Half of the pedestrians have gone, and the remaining ones are mostly younger people, and most of them are women."
If everyone in Yijian Villa were present, they would definitely recognize the man in front of them. He is Lao Li who has been following them to help repair the houses in Bazi. His wife was brutally killed by the bandits during this robbery. However, in the subsequent reconstruction of Bazi, he worked extremely hard. He helped no matter which family's house or farmland. Even when delivering meals and other items to everyone in Yijian Villa, he was always ready to help. In the eyes of the villagers, he is the tough guy who never bows his head despite suffering.
"Very good. After this is done, I will recommend you to manage this Yangbazi area, and I will also arrange some manpower for you. No one in Jiannan or Shannan will take care of it. You just need to be your boss here." He is the Earth Emperor," the armored man said in a low voice, with a playful smile in his words.
"Young man... I don't expect so much. As long as the head of the family can leave the little girl from the village chief's family to me in the future..." The man hurriedly kowtowed in thanks.
"Tonight, we will first deal with the young people who stay here. The second and third sons are really useless, and I still need to wipe their butts... Brothers, those little bitches will keep their hands away for a while, and their hands and feet will be broken. , so that it will be inconvenient for brothers to use it later, hahahahaha..." The armored man turned around and whispered to the person behind him, but at the end of the sentence, he couldn't help laughing wildly.
The bandits behind them were all gearing up, and some even started wiping the corners of their mouths with their hands, sticking out their tongues, and making disgusting gasping sounds like wild dogs. What should I start thinking about again?
"I know what the brothers are thinking about now, but we still can't forget the teachings of the master. Kill the young and strong who will resist. Remember to keep the old, weak, sick and disabled who can be easily trained. We will build houses for everyone in the future. Well, as for those little bitches, the brothers can think for themselves." The armored man stressed again.
As soon as he said these words, the people behind him dressed as bandits seemed to have been cast by an old god. Some of his eyes seemed to start to shine. If it hadn't been for the armored man who had carefully emphasized before, he must not act badly. Arrangement, must start roaring loudly.
After the armored man emphasized, he aroused the arrogance of these bandits. He raised his left hand high in the air, and then waved it down instantly. The bandits behind him passed in front of him, and one after another began to attack the people down the mountain. Yangbazi ran towards it, and as the bandits charged downwards, there were only about thirty people there, forty, fifty, sixty, seventy...
In the dark night, more than seventy people dressed as bandits rushed down from the mountain. As they ran forward, they began to draw out their knives, guns, sticks, and clubs. Tuanji yelled, but the sound only came out for a moment and then stopped abruptly.
The bandit who made the strange roar fell among the rushing crowd. A sharp arrow penetrated his neck from back to front, directly piercing his throat and cervical spine. Blood began to flow from his neck. When they came out, the other bandits immediately fell silent and didn't seem to see any of their companions fall.
The person running down the hillside behind the man seemed to have completely missed the figure lying on the hillside. One after another, the bandits stepped on the fallen body, and soon the whole body was trampled. not humanoid.
At the end of the crowd was the man wearing flaming sun armor. He held an iron bow in his hand, which he had drawn like a full moon, waiting to shoot the next bandit who disobeyed the arrangement.
The man who was called Lao Li by the villagers just heard a "swish--" sound, which was extremely small. It would have been impossible to hear it if he hadn't been beside him. After the man shot the first arrow, he He kept lying on the ground, not daring to look up at the armored man.
The man in armor seemed to think that he was quite sensible, so he took advantage of the opportunity to fully draw the bow string and said to him: "Don't go back, just find a place to stay here until dawn, and then the entire Yangbazi will be your head." It’s over”.
"Thank you... thank you general, no! Thank you to the boss, and then thank you to the general... I will find a place to stay here, and I will never disobey the general." Lao Li immediately kowtowed three times. Then he turned around while crawling on the spot and crawled towards the dense forest behind the armored man.
He crawled very fast, and he was about to crawl into the grass in a short time, but suddenly he heard the armored man behind him chuckle: "You'd better run, don't get used to being a slave in front of others. I will be a slave from now on..."
When Lao Li heard this, he immediately stood up and ran into the dense forest. But the moment he stood up, he heard the familiar soft sound again, "Whoosh——" It was just such a soft sound, without any stormy waves. At that moment, Time seemed to have stopped, and the changes in Old Li Tou's cloudy eyes kept changing.
Sometimes he was frightened, sometimes confused, sometimes desperate, and sometimes... regretful. In the early years, when he was a young man in the village, his neighbors in the streets called him the smartest child in the goat dam. The township head also asked his youngest daughter to send many books to his home so that he could study hard. In the future, Quan Bazi saved some money and asked him to take the exam.
However, as the harvest in Bazi declined year after year, people in the village seemed to no longer brag about his genius. The little daughter of the township chief's family rarely came to give him books to read. He once When I was working on the farm, I saw the little daughter of the township head's family chatting happily with a scholar who was passing by at the entrance of the village. They were all talking about the principles he had learned in his books.
It was the book that the woman sent to his home and delivered to him. He felt that he was already full of knowledge. Why did no one in the village mention what happened back then, and no one said that they would give him money to take the exam? The woman was now chatting happily with others, leaving herself alone to fantasize about those few books.
In the following years, he stopped reading books and concentrated on farming with the folks in Bazi. No matter what he did, he worked extremely hard. The folks seemed to have returned to the past and began to praise him as the smartest and most capable Lao Li. A girl from the family fell in love with him, a hard-working and capable man. Not long after, under the clamor of the villagers, he married the girl, and it became a good marriage that everyone in Yangbazi said.
But the more he lived with that girl, the more he began to remember the time when he was reading in the house, and the little daughter of the township head who would often knock on his door and hand him a book. ... He began to be confused and at a loss. In his opinion, since the little daughter of the township head's family talked and laughed with the passing scholar that day, she never looked for him again.
Until the beginning of this year, when he was digging for herbs in the mountains, he was captured by bandits. At first, he had a clear intention to die. Although he spent the past few years in confusion, now he has to learn a lesson even if he is going to die. I have seen those scholars who "live as heroes in life and die as ghosts" whom I have seen in books. I want to die calmly like them.
But in the end, because he heard the words of the bandits, he no longer wanted to die. He shouted out his resentment and his inner knot at the bandit leader, and cursed the neighbors who had ruined his life. , he roared and wanted to use these human hands to prevent himself from dying in such a painful way.
The smiles and approval of the bandit leader and the armored man at that time are still lingering in my heart. They were the first to admit their abilities, so they would use all their talents for them to let those ignorant people Let the neighbors take a good look at what they can become after being abandoned by them, and let the woman take a good look at whether the passing scholar has a future or him...
Thinking back to this point, time seemed to return to its normal flow in an instant. He fell to the ground, blood spurting out from his mouth and nose. He wanted to get up, but found that the sharp arrow that penetrated his entire chest from behind had been buried in the soil. Don't give him any chance to get up.
His eyes began to dim, he was wrong, everything was wrong, he was smart, but not too smart...
The villagers praised him, and the mayor's youngest daughter gave him books, so he began to sit back and wait for the whole Yangbazi, spending all their financial resources to support him to rush for the exam. He made a mistake.
He worked hard, farmed, and farmed. When a girl fell in love with him, he accepted it casually and felt that he could live like this. However, the knot in his heart was not resolved at all, and he became lazy.
After being captured by the bandits, he poured out his anger to the bandits, gained their trust, and planned for the bandits to rob the entire Bazi, just for the sake of the woman who never looked at him again. He made a mistake. .
In the end, it ended up being discarded after use.
"I haven't finished speaking yet... Since you have become a slave with a handle, you should never think about standing up again." The iron bow in the armored man's hand was still in the state of archery, watching the man who was shot dead in the dense forest. The corpse in the corpse said softly, and the words were full of ridicule towards the corpse.
