"Brother, we have brought the village chiefs of several nearby villages here." Not long after, some bandits on horseback threw two or three old men off their horses, and then went to the teahouse to report the situation to their leader.
"Very good, bring them all here," the bandit leader who was sitting stood up, looked around and then sat back down.
After a while, in addition to the teahouse owner, there were already five old men standing in front of the bandit leader. They were obviously the village chiefs of each village.
"It is your honor that I, Hu Dalang, and my brothers come to your village today. Now you old guys, please listen to me. Each village will prepare ten unmarried women for me, as well as ten livestock for plowing. Send us here together. We must get things done before noon, otherwise I will kill you all and then take away what you want." Looking at the trembling old men in front of him, Hu Dalang did not show any emotion in his eyes. Any mercy.
"Sir, our villages only have dozens of households in each village, so we don't have as many girls as you want!"
"Sir, the cattle for plowing are all raised by everyone. All the villages combined can't even get fifty cattle."
"Sir, our villages are extremely poor, please let us go!"
…
After learning about Hu Dalang's intention to arrest them, the elderly village chiefs were frightened, and one by one they quickly knelt down and begged Hu Dalang to let them go.
In fact, for the villagers, the land at the foot of the mountain is not easy to cultivate. The cattle are the most valuable thing in each village. If they don't have them, it will be difficult for them to even grow some food. As for those girls, there are some in the village, but where Which family is willing to give their daughter to these bandits? This request is actually more difficult to accept than asking them to hand over their cattle. Now several village chiefs feel that it is difficult for Hu Dalang to force them. In desperation, they can only ask Hu Dalang Let them go.
"I don't care, if you don't hand over the things on time, you will all die," Hu Dalang, who had a cold personality, threatened directly without taking the village chiefs' requests to heart, leaving no room for negotiation.
"Sir, we really can't come up with so many things."
"Sir, please let us go."
Despite this, two village chiefs risked their lives to beg Hu Dalang to let them go.
"It seems that I won't show you any shame. You don't know that time is precious. Someone come and teach them a lesson." Hu Dalang looked coldly at the two village chiefs who begged him for mercy. Hu Dalang then ordered his subordinates with an unhappy look on his face. A sound.
The next moment, two ordinary bandits came forward with weapons, and without saying a word, they directly drew their swords and killed the two village chiefs.
I thought it was just a general lesson, but I didn't expect it to be like this. When Lu Yunyou reacted and wanted to help, it was already too late. After being shocked, Lu Yunyou directly realized that the lives of those villagers were worthless in the eyes of the bandits. fact.
No wonder the bandit leader would call the woman "something". Thinking about it again, Lu Yunyou suddenly felt that the villagers could only survive if they agreed to the other party's conditions.
"I am in a good mood today, so I have time to talk nonsense with you, otherwise I would have killed you all." Judging from the horrified eyes of the surrounding villagers, the death of the two village chiefs had obviously served as a warning to the monkeys. Hu Dalang sent those The villagers laughed immediately after seeing the reaction in their eyes.
In fact, not only Lu Yunyou didn't expect that the bandits would directly kill the two village chiefs, but the other villagers also didn't expect that the brutal scene was also seen by Xingyu. By the time Lu Yunyou realized that Xingyu was scared, it was already too late. Do something.
From Lu Yunyou's point of view, Xingyu was still young and might not be able to bear such a tragic scene, but unfortunately the deal was already done.
"You people have hands and feet and are more capable than us. Why do you become bandits instead of doing business? Does bullying ordinary people really make you happy?" As a person in the nearby area, except for the village chiefs, The most prestigious person, Mr. Hu, couldn't stand the brutal behavior of those bandits and couldn't help but seek justice from those bandits.
The next moment, Hu Dalang and all the bandits around him looked at Mr. Hu with unkind expressions. Mr. Hu soon felt that he seemed to be more impulsive than Lu Yunyou just now. His appearance directly pushed him to the forefront.
"Are you the pharmacist on the mountain? I have heard from the villagers before that you and I are one family, and we happen to be short of a pharmacist in the village. Why don't you come with us later and go to the village to treat the illnesses of the brothers? Your benefits are indispensable." After taking a look at Mr. Hu, a smile appeared on Hu Dalang's face.
"Fart, this old man hangs his pot to help the world, isn't it for any good?" Now that he has stood up, Mr. Hu can no longer worry about his own safety.
Standing next to Mr. Hu, Lu Yunyou didn't know what Mr. Hu was feeling in his heart at the moment, but what surprised him was that there was no look of fear on Mr. Hu's face at all.
"If you don't get a toast, you'll get a fine drink. Since you were bumped into by me today, do you think you can go back?" Hu Dalang laughed, but he didn't take Mr. Hu's response to heart at all.
"Ha ha……"
"Ha ha……"
…
His smile immediately caused a burst of laughter, and many bandits laughed together, as if Mr. Hu's response was funny to each of them. In fact, no matter how determined Mr. Hu's attitude was, in their eyes it was indeed It's ridiculous because they only identify with force.
"Village chief, it's bad! Some bandits broke into the village and kidnapped a girl in the village. The girl's parents fought with them because they didn't want to, and they were all killed." At this moment, a The villagers ran over in a panic. After rushing into the crowd, they didn't care what the situation was and directly explained the situation to the village chief of their village.
After he finished speaking, he noticed that there were two dead bodies next to the village chiefs. Then, the man's face turned pale and he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Haha, it seems that some brothers can't hold it anymore," Hu Dalang was first disturbed by the intruder, but after knowing what happened, Hu Dalang turned to look at the living village chiefs in front of him with a smile and said : "Whether you old guys agree or not, don't wait until everyone in your village is dead before you agree to my conditions."
Seizing the opportunity, Hu Dalang directly threatened the remaining village chiefs.
"You are shameless." Unexpectedly, there were bandits doing evil in various villages, bringing danger to the villagers. Before the village chiefs could respond, Mr. Hu couldn't help but angrily scolded Hu Dalang and others.
"Old guy, although you are from my family, I advise you not to rely on your old age. Since I have become a bandit, am I still afraid that others will call me shameless? If you dare to cause trouble again, my brothers will kill people again." Look Seeing that the village chiefs were already scared to death by him, if Mr. Hu hadn't been so troublesome, someone might have agreed to his request. Thinking of this, Hu Dalang immediately pointed the finger at Mr. Hu.
"Mr. Hu, you first ask the village chiefs to agree to him, and then ask the surrounding villagers to evacuate as soon as possible. Leave the rest to me." Now that the matter has come to this, Lu Yunyou can no longer wait. Judging from the current situation , if we don’t want more people to die, for now everyone can only follow the bandits’ requirements.
"What are you going to do about it?" Faced with Hu Dalang's power, Mr. Hu, who wanted to say a few more words, completely lost his confidence. He could not care about his own life or death, but he could not care about others.
"Don't worry, I can deal with those bandits. Now I just need to find a way to transfer the villagers away and let the bandits gather together." In desperation, Lu Yunyou did not explain much, but just explained what Mr. Hu had to do now. .
Seeing that Lu Yunyou was so serious, Mr. Hu felt uneasy, but after thinking about it, he decided to do as Lu Yunyou said.
"Little friend Lu, I leave the affairs of the village to you. Don't let me down." After making the decision, Mr. Hu trusted Lu Yunyou even more.
"Xingyu, later you take the others and leave here to find a place to hide. We will call you when the matter is over," seeing Mr. Hu's agreement, Lu Yunyou told Xingyu uneasily.
"No, I want to stay. Those people are good or bad. Isn't there anyone in the village who can beat them?" What surprised Lu Yunyou was that Xingyu directly showed an extremely determined aura and a completely fearless look. .
"What are you doing here?" Surprised, Lu Yunyou first became confused about Xingyu's performance.
"If others can't beat them, then I'll fight them," Xingyu's answer was very direct, as if he never thought that he couldn't beat those bandits.
"Xingyu, I promise to save everyone, but you have to leave with the villagers first, otherwise your staying may affect me." I didn't expect Xingyu's character to be so strong. After a while of surprise, Lu Yunyou wanted to help the villagers even more. Solve the problem, and for this reason, he can't let Xingyu stay.
"Okay, let me go," the next moment, Xingyu agreed very simply, as if he completely understood what Lu Yunyou said. That very straightforward response surprised Lu Yunyou.
