Chapter 86: The first lesson of a young man
"Bang! Bang!" Zhou Di raised his hand and used the square halberd in his hand to smash the sword shadow and stone thorn behind him.
Everyone also reacted and came closer. I saw a thin young man sitting down next to a big tree. He seemed to be frightened by the attacks just now.
The thin young man had met Yi Xifeng on the way here before, and he was one of Chunying and the other three.
"Kid, why are you hiding here so secretly?" It was Zhong Lingxi who asked.
The girl stood carelessly beside the thin boy, her red-soled snow deerskin boots stepping on a small stone, and she leaned down to look down at the boy.
Seeing Zhong Lingxi acting like a big sister, the frail young man was so frightened that he stammered: "I, I, dare not go in, so they asked me to wait for them here..."
"Them?" Zhong Lingxi asked with eyes wide open.
"It's Huaimu and Chunying. Huaimu clamored to follow him to Liangchengang to see what you were up to. Chunying didn't trust him and was afraid that he would cause some trouble, so she followed him." The thin boy whispered. replied.
Everyone was shocked when they heard what the thin young man said. Yi Xifeng asked: "You said the two of them followed us to Liangchengang?"
The boy nodded quickly, like a chicken pecking at rice.
The four of them looked at each other and saw the seriousness in each other's eyes.
"I was careless and didn't realize they were following us." Yi Xifeng murmured.
"They have no inner strength and cultivation, and they are in the forest at night. They can easily be confused with wild beasts." Li Xintian said slowly.
Zhou Di sighed and said slowly: "Miss Zhong, I still have to trouble you."
Zhong Lingxi said with some confusion: "Captain Zhou ordered."
"Please also send the three of them back to Yinren Village safely." Before Zhong Lingxi could refute, he turned to look at Yi Xifeng and Li Xintian, and said apologetically: "I wanted to ask you to help me, but I didn't expect that this matter would be far more complicated than mine. The thought is complicated. I must go back to save these two children. I will no longer be able to guarantee your safety in the next actions, so..."
Yi Xifeng interrupted Zhou Di and said with a smile: "We didn't help much, but there are some things it would be better for me to explain clearly."
Yi Xifeng paused and looked up at Zhou Di, "Although Xintian and I are participating in the mission of the strong men for the first time, when we won the championship of the martial arts competition, we were also qualified as bodyguards. Get dressed." At this point, he turned and looked at Li Xintian.
Seeing the girl smiling and nodding to him, Yi Xifeng continued: "Since two young men are already in danger, we have no chance of retreating. Although Xintian and I still have to worry about the dead people. It's a bit repulsive, but we don't want to see familiar people die because of us. Including you, Chun Ying and the others."
Zhou Di's eyes were a little complicated and he didn't answer anything for a moment.
On the other hand, the thin young man beside him got up from the ground and whispered: "Yi Xifeng, you must save Chunying and Huaimu!"
Yi Xifeng smiled and said: "Then we have to ask you to do us a favor! As soon as we return to the village, we will notify the people guarding Tieyi and ask them for support. This is very important. Whether we can escape smoothly depends on you!" "
The young man quickly agreed.
Yi Xifeng turned to look at Zhou Di and said in a deep voice: "Captain, give the order!"
Zhou Di took a deep look at Yi Xifeng and said calmly: "I still remember the first lesson he taught me a few years ago when I became a young man and went on a mission with my old captain."
Before Yi Xifeng could answer, Zhou Di continued: "The work of strong men is the foundation of guarding Yinren Village. You should be aware of the strict prohibitions!"
Yi Xifeng and Li Xintian looked at each other. The girl looked through the gray and black mask and gently shook her head to express that she didn't know.
Zhou Di looked at the two people in front of him and said solemnly: "Those who are facing the battle should all line up in front!"
…
Yinren Village, Liangchengang.
"Hey, Huaimu! Come back with me quickly. We don't just come to Liangchengang! There are strong men here to guard the place. If we are sneaky here at this late hour, we will be arrested as spies!" Chunying said a little. He said anxiously to the boy beside him.
When the young man heard this, he felt a little upset in his heart. Even though they were all from the same village, and even if the strong men caught them, they would not take action against the children. But being carried home by his mother, he would definitely not be able to escape a good fight!
But when he remembered the "arrogant" look of Yi Xifeng and the admiring look on Chun Ying's face, the young man also became stubborn.
Huaimu thought to himself: I have to see what they are doing! How old are you when you work with two strong men and are so arrogant and let us go home early? Just teach me a lesson?
Huaimu turned his head and glanced at Chunying, and said: "You wait here for a while, I will go over and take a look. I might encounter some strong men on patrol."
With that said, he walked out of the woods regardless of the girl's obstruction.
At this time in the Liangchengang camp, the five Xing brothers were standing in the square of the camp, with the Xing boss looking gloomy.
"Brother, my third brother and I have already checked. Someone has indeed entered the camp, and the gray thread spread when leaving was obviously tampered with. And..." The second brother Xing Lin glanced at the gloomy boss Xing.
He continued: "And the deep pit in the back hall where people are buried also has traces of being dug!"
Boss Xing murmured: "This Yinren Village is indeed not simple. The trap I set up carefully was discovered just like this. No! We have to leave overnight. No one has come yet. They must have gone to seek foreign aid!" "
Suddenly, Boss Xing's eyes turned cold, he raised his eyes towards the camp entrance and said sullenly: "Fourth and Fifth, go out and see who is hiding sneakily outside the camp!"
Xing Simu and Xing Linlin looked at each other, then rushed straight out of the camp.
…
Huaimu wandered outside the camp gate for a long time with some uneasiness. It was also the first time for him to come to Liangchengang late at night. Although the young man found that Liangchengang was unusually quiet at this time, he did not realize that there was anything wrong. He even naively thought that the guard All went to rest.
Just when the young man was hesitating whether to take advantage of the guards at Liangchengang to "rest", sneak in and take a look. Two big men wearing coir raincoats and bamboo hats suddenly appeared in front of him!
The appearance of the two strong men really startled Huaimu. He sat down on the ground and almost cried.
After all, they are just nine-year-old children, and not everyone is as adventurous as Yi Xifeng and Li Xintian. One of them was born with a powerful soul, and the other grew up with brothers Li Chengqian and Li Chengtao. His intelligence and courage are beyond the comparison of ordinary people.
"Why is he a brat?" Xing Laosi muttered.
Xing Laowu murmured: "Kid, what are you doing here? I'll give you three breaths, or I'll kill you!"
Huaimu, who had managed to calm down, became even more panicked when he heard Xing Laowu's words, shouting: "Ah! I'm not a spy! I'm not a spy! Don't kill me!"
Huaimu shouted, tears also flowed out.
Xing Lao Si pushed Xing Lao Wu and said with a smile: "Look at you scaring the child! Be good, tell your uncle, why are you here at night? You see, my uncle is a strong man, not a bad person!"
