Although Sun Yixie is not very good at kung fu, his aura has a big brother demeanor that is seriously inconsistent with his age and strength.
As soon as he started talking wildly, the two minions were stunned.
In addition, this is an official road after all, and it is not dark yet. Cars and horses may pass by at any time. The two bandits are also cowardly. When they were combined, they were really scared.
"Okay... Sun Yixie, we have met in the mountains and rivers! Don't regret it!" The minions are the minions. While saying harsh words, they are already retreating, for fear that the other party will be angered. catch up.
As soon as he finished speaking, the two bandits retreated into the woods, then turned around and ran away.
Sun Yixie was relieved when he saw them leaving, but he did not immediately go forward to help the woman who fell on the ground because he was not sure whether the scene just now was between these two people. A man and a woman colluded to put on a show for themselves - if this was some kind of fairy dance or deception, as soon as he got close, the woman would take out a poisonous needle or lime powder and give it to him. He couldn't stand it.
"Girl...are you okay?" Sun Yixie asked cautiously, standing more than one meter away from the other party.
"Thank you so much, young hero, for saving me." The woman was almost out of breath by now, and slowly sat up from the ground.
At this moment, Huang Donglai also hurriedly appeared from the woods on the other side of the road.
He looked around and soon saw the situation on Sun Yixie's side, so he quickly walked closer and asked, "Brother Sun, is that okay? I've only been away for five minutes." Shit, you can’t help but start robbing women?”
“Get out! I’m acting bravely!” Sun Yixie also knew that the other party was joking, and replied with his nose raised. "You don't know how brave I was just now. I showed a little bit of domineering spirit and scared away two tough gangsters."
"What domineering spirit are you shouting? I heard those words from so far away, okay?" Huang Donglai did hear it, firstly because Brother Sun shouted loudly and in a shrill voice, and secondly because Huang Donglai's ear skills were not bad, "It's just that the opponent's strength is not good. So I'm scared."
"Don't talk nonsense." Sun Yixi said, "What are you doing when I risk my life and yell at injustice?"
"Okay, Brother Sun is awesome." It wasn't that Huang Donglai couldn't answer the conversation, but when he saw that the girl looked at them more and more strangely, he stopped his impromptu cross talk with Sun Yixie.
At this point, they naturally couldn't leave the girl here alone and chase the carriage, so they simply helped her sit down on a rock by the side of the road and asked about her. encounter.
After asking, I found out that this girl was indeed a village girl named Wang, and she was already the mother of two children. Of course, in Dazu, it is very common for a woman to get married at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and it is very common for a woman to have children in her twenties.
There is one near hereThe village is called Nanyuan Village, and the Wang family is a villager there. This village is located in the mountains of Baijiling. It happens to be a place where multiple states meet and no one cares about it, so it is often intruded by bandits.
And "Zoumazhai" is the most rampant mountain village in this area.
The bandits from Zoumazhai will go to Nanyuan Village every three or five to harass them. However, for this small-scale harassment, not many people come, usually only five or six, and the things they rob are nothing more. Just some chicken, duck, fish, meat and old wine, five or six people could not take much with their hands; the villagers did not dare to offend these bandits, so they tolerated it.
But among the bandits who came to harass the village today, there were two particularly lecherous ones, the ones Sun Yixie scared away just now... Earlier that day, these two thieves After eating for free in the village, they were about to return to the village. They accidentally saw Wang at the entrance of the village. At that time, they became interested and wanted to take Wang back to the village.
Wang was also alert. When she saw the two people approaching with lewd smiles on their faces, she knew she was going to get into trouble, so she turned around and ran away; this woman in the mountains is different from the ladies in the city who never leave the house. But it's different. Firstly, their feet are not bound, and secondly, they often help the family with farm work, so they don't run very slowly. In addition, Wang was very familiar with the road terrain between the mountains, so the two bandits really couldn't catch her for a while.
Wang knew very well that she would be doomed if she fell into the hands of these two thieves. She was already prepared to run headlong into a tree and die. With this determination, she would Not afraid of anything anymore, he stumbled and ran all the way towards the official road. Finally, when he was exhausted, he escaped to the roadside, where he happened to meet Sun Yixie.
"Young hero can save me, the woman is very grateful." When Wang said this, she was already crying, "But after this incident, I'm afraid those bandits will not let it go. If they wait too long, they will be killed tomorrow." As soon as tonight, they will gather people to come to the village to take revenge, and I'm afraid my whole family will suffer... What should I do?" She shed tears as she spoke.
After hearing what she said, Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai were also very angry, but they were indignant and they seemed unable to do anything.
Not to mention that they are on the road now, even if they can spare a day and a half to mind this business, the two of them will definitely not be able to stand up to the entire village of bandits head-on.
“Damn it, this is really hard to do.” Sun Yixie scolded the street, “Otherwise…” He thought for a moment, “Let’s rush back to Hangzhou to report. Official? I dare not say anything else. The governor of Hangzhou still wants to give my Sun family some face. It should not be a big problem to ask him to send some troops to clear out the copycat."
"I'm afraid it's too late. ?" Huang Donglai was more thoughtful, "We have gone so far, and there are no horses. It will be dark by the time we get back, and most of the prefects are asleep. Are you going to play drums in the middle of the night to complain?" He paused? After a pause, "To take a step back, even if you really go to report to the official in the middle of the night, the prefect will not dare to fall out with you, but when the prefect transfersIt might be tomorrow night or the day after tomorrow when we send people and horses. The bandits have already finished their revenge and ran away... Also, are you sure the prefect has the right to send people here? Isn't this place so chaotic because it is located on the border of multiple states and counties, making it difficult for everyone to control it? "
When Sun Yixie heard this, it was true when he thought about it: "What should we do? He was so anxious that he scratched his head, "I just came out of the world, and I encountered such an injustice at my door. I can't care about it?" How can I still hang out in the world in the future? "
Huang Donglai thought for a moment: "Otherwise... let's send Miss Wang back to the village first, and then we'll see the situation there. We can also think of another solution on the way. ”
“That’s all it can do. Sun Yixie sighed.
Wang thanked the two young heroes profusely, rested for a while, and took them on the road crying.
All the way. Without saying anything, they arrived at the entrance of Nanyuan Village after walking for about half an hour.
Before they entered the village, a group of old and young men from the village came out with pitchforks and sticks. , surrounded them.
It turned out that after being scared away by Sun Yixie, the two minions returned to the village because they were angry and said to the villagers: "Wang is outside. He hired a thug and actually said that he was going to destroy the Zouma village. If this news reached the ears of the village owner, the village owner would definitely lead his men and horses to slaughter all the men, women, old and children in the village. If you are wise, tie up Wang and the thug at this time tomorrow, and send them to the entrance of the village along with the money and food to make amends, otherwise tomorrow will be the day when all of you in the village will die. ”
After saying that, the two people went back to the village. As soon as they returned, they immediately told the village owner about today’s events, saying a lot about Sun Yihe and the villagers. Bad words; as bandits, they have nothing to do on weekdays. Their main job is to rob men, dominate women, and plunder money and food, so the village leader naturally doesn't mind taking his people to the other side of the village tomorrow.
Well, the villagers were dumbfounded...
There were also some brave people in the village. At that time, they quietly came up with the idea to arrest the two bandits and kill them, but they were still persuaded by others. , because after doing this, the result is actually the same. When Zou Mazhai sees that one of his men is missing in the village, he will still come to investigate, and then the matter will become more serious.
So, treat the two bandits. After returning, the villagers gathered together for an urgent discussion and decided to wait until Wang came back to find out what happened before deciding what to do. /p>
Of course, these villagers are not unreasonable. After Wang told them what happened, they relieved their tense posture.
After all, Sun Yihehe. What Huang Donglai did was a chivalrous thing. Even if the villagers were not grateful to them, they would not be shameless enough to want to harm them. Furthermore, the fear and hatred that the bandits in Zoumazhai had brought to these villagers had been accumulated for a long time, and the village was indeed There are many people who already have a give-it-all mentality.I want to fight with Zoumazhai to the death, but the net is broken.
Sun and Huang had a brief exchange with the villagers, and after learning more about the situation, Huang Donglai quickly came up with an idea.
He pulled Sun Yixie aside and whispered: "Brother Sun, I have an idea."
"Oh? Come and listen." Sun Yixie said .
"You know I can use poison, right?" Huang Donglai asked.
"Of course I know." Sun Yixie said, "But I heard from the villagers that there are more than fifty bandits in Zoumazhai. The inventory you have on you shouldn't be enough to kill them all, right?"
"Brother Sun, are you overthinking it?" Huang Donglai said, "The prepared poisons and antidotes I brought with me are all high-end goods, and the materials are very expensive. I brought them the key It's for self-defense at all times; don't say I don't bring much, even if I bring a lot, I can't use it to AOE against the bandit."
"Then what are you telling me about using poison?" Sun Yixi said.
"I can use the materials readily available in the drug store in this village to make some cheap mass-produced poison and use it as a trap to set up an ambush." Huang Donglai said.
"Oh?" Sun Yixie suddenly realized, "Okay, look, then wouldn't the entire army on the other side have to be wiped out before they even enter the village? Hahaha!"
"You go first Don't be too happy." Huang Donglai said, "I just talked to the medicine shop owner. There are not many types and quantities of medicinal materials in medicine shops in this small village. There is no way to prepare the kind that can be sprinkled in the air. It is a poison that can kill people, not to mention how many percent of the poison can be sucked in by them after being made into a trap. Therefore, relying on traps will at most weaken their combat power, and it is impossible to poison them all."
"Then how useful can you do this?" Sun Yixie asked again.
Huang Donglai thought for a while and replied: "I have inquired about it. Except for the leader of the village, the martial arts of those bandits are average. They are basically just trash fishes with no internal strength and a few tricks. ..."
"Wait a minute...what do you mean by the word 'ye'?" Sun Yixie interrupted.
"Oh, don't worry about such details." Huang Donglai waved his hand impatiently, signaling Brother Sun not to interrupt, and continued, "According to my experience, these miscellaneous fish are fighting one-on-one with swords. Under the circumstances, there is about a 70% chance of winning against a farmer holding farm tools... And in this village, there are more than a hundred people in total. Excluding the old, weak, women and children, the remaining strong men should be able to make up forty. If they resist desperately, it will not be easy to kill them.
"It is impossible for the people in Zoumazhai not to know this, so I estimate that there will not be fewer of them coming tomorrow, at least. Forty people are needed to have enough deterrence and combat power.
"But they would not have thought that they would encounter my poison trap on the way here; by then, at least twenty of them would have been poisoned... And those poisoned trash fish, let alone take them It's difficult to even stand upright when the knife is stabbing someone. Any adult man can knock him down if he goes up to him."
Sun Yixie heard this.Er understood: "Oh, in this case, when they come tomorrow, you will be responsible for dealing with the village leader. I will lead a group of tough men and swarm up. At least we can fight."
"You said "That's right." Huang Donglai asked, "How about my plan?"
"Okay, Brother Huang has something." Sun Yixie also complimented his brother in a timely manner.
"Well, if you think there are no problems or flaws, I will go tell them." Huang Donglai said.
"Wait a minute..." At this moment, Sun Yixie seemed to suddenly think of something, "Although your plan is good, I think there is still room for improvement on this basis."
< p>"Oh?" Huang Donglai asked curiously, "What good idea have you come up with?"Sun Yixie rolled his little eyes and showed a sly smile: "Heh... I have a plan—— Change home."
