Yan Laoer came back with his people, and those who stayed behind gathered around him.
Wait until he finishes telling the origins of these women and children.
Everyone feels very uncomfortable.
Li Xuemei came forward to gather up the straw mats of each family and spread them into a flat area. She also spread some herbs that repel snakes and insects around to let them rest.
These children were very young, frightened, had very restless sleep, would cry when they fell asleep, and some would tremble suddenly when they got cold, which looked very pitiful.
The mother-in-law could only hold her in her arms, coax her, rock her, and use her hands to soothe her again and again.
They cast grateful glances at the woman who placed them.
Village Chief Luo pulled Yan Laoer aside.
Before he could speak, he sighed heavily.
"What are your plans to rescue these people?"
Yan Laoer said: "My brother said we will wait until the matter is settled."
He watched Village Chief Luo take a look at his own food, and he had an idea.
Just as he was about to say something, Li Xuemei came over.
"Let's give them food to cook some porridge for them. I think those children are not doing well."
Li Xuemei is also a mother, and her children suffer the most.
Seeing those children being frightened, she was a little worried. Children are inherently fragile and can easily get sick if there is any disturbance.
Yan Laoer has no objection. Making porridge does not waste much rice, and the rice soup can also nourish people. It is quite suitable.
After the couple discussed it, Li Xuemei asked some sisters-in-law to help them get rice pots to boil rice soup.
The reason why it is a thin rice soup instead of a slightly thick porridge is because of the strong objections of several sisters-in-law.
This is not the way to help people.
At this time of year, it is the kindness of the Yan family to give rice soup to Kou.
Village Chief Luo frowned beside him, watching the couple act.
I opened my mouth several times to speak, but swallowed it back.
After all, he wanted to help these people, otherwise he wouldn't take a glance at his own food.
It wasn't until he saw the very thin rice soup that Village Chief Luo breathed a sigh of relief.
This is great, it helps people and doesn’t cost much.
Those women were holding the rice bowls that each family had collected, and tears were falling down their faces.
I couldn't help it and started crying.
I was worried about scaring the child again, so I could only hold it back with all my strength. It was really heart-wrenching to watch.
Wake the child up gently, blow it to cool it down and feed it to the child's mouth. After eating most of the bowl of porridge, he drinks the remaining bottom of the bowl.
Li Xuemei and her sisters-in-law didn't want to look any further and looked away.
…
At the same time, Yan Huaiwen led people to the back mountain of Laosong Mountain.
The higher you go, the stinkers it gets.
Yan Huaiwen was calm.
I knew I had found the right place.
Do you still expect bandits to take good care of people and take care of their food and drink?
It would be nice if the person who stutters is not starved to death.
Food and accommodation are conveniently located in one place, but the smell is only due to the good ventilation on the mountain.
The guarding bandit yawned and spoke.
"Then why is Qiyun Village so powerful, why should we go there and die?"
"Didn't you hear that the second master said there was a way to deal with them?"
"I listened to it for a while, ha! I was too sleepy and didn't hear it clearly."
"Hey! You kid!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Just tell me if you know it. It will help me solve my problem."
"The second master said that they used bamboo arrows, which means they only hit their path at a close distance. If they were farther away, these bamboo arrows wouldn't be able to penetrate very deeply."
"Isn't this a big deal? It hurts even if it's not deep. Besides, if you're far away, there's still nothing you can do about it."
"Why are you so anxious? Just listen to me. The second boss has ordered the mountain people to cut wood and weave vines all night long. There is something blocking the way. Are you still afraid of them shooting arrows? As long as we get closer, hey, let them try our skills.
Is the knife fast?"
"Ah! Now that you say that, I'm really not sleepy anymore!"
"The second boss also said that this group of people will not come out for no reason. They must know something to snatch our heads. It is best to leave a few alive and trick them to see what and how much they know. If
If we can catch the line above Chuanyun Village, we, Old Song Village, will make a fortune!"
…
Hu Da and Hu Er came over from two directions.
The two people gestured to each other.
Just two people guarding it?
so little!
After confirming again and again, the two people gestured again, and each person divided one.
Whizzing!
Two arrows shot past.
Almost at the same time, he plunged into the necks of two bandits.
Ahhhhhhh for a long time, but no sound came out.
Another person jumped out and hit him with a stick. He fell down and was dragged into the woods by the people behind him.
The alert victims rushed to the fence at the entrance of the cave and looked out.
Under the moonlight, strong men walked towards this side one after another, so scared that he backed away repeatedly.
Hu Dahu Er picked up the torch that fell on the ground and passed it on to light the torch they brought.
Under the light of the fire, Yan Huaiwen approached step by step.
He asked softly: "Are there only two bandits watching you?"
The man suddenly understood something, and the light in his eyes was brighter than the light of the torch.
"There are only two tonight! The rest have been called to the front. It seems there is something big to discuss."
Yan Huaiwen thought for a while and asked him: "If you make a noise, will anyone come to check?"
The man reacted quickly and said hurriedly: "There are people patrolling the mountain, but the road is not easy to walk at night. They are lazy and only go around twice a night. If we make a big noise here, they can probably hear it. There are four people patrolling the mountain."
I'll definitely come personally, but the people in front of me can't say for sure."
Yan Huaiwen smiled a little: "A scholar?"
"My surname is Liang, Liang Manshan. May I ask my brother?"
"Yan Huaiwen."
"Brother Yan is here to save us?"
"That's what I mean."
Liang Manshan saw that his group was still reluctant to release the people. Although he was anxious, he also knew that he was worried.
"There are only about a hundred real bandits here, and the rest are mountain people they kidnapped into the mountains. They cannot trust them. These mountain people have no weapons in their hands and are easy to identify."
Yan Huaiwen nodded.
He said a few words to the person behind him.
Several men climbed up the fence neatly and jumped in.
Yan Huaiwen bowed his hand to Liang Manshan and said, "Brother Liang, wait a moment."
Liang Manshan was in agitated mood.
He also returned the greeting and said, "Thank you, Brother Yan."
Suddenly, several grown men appeared, and the victims became commotion.
One of the victims who heard everything shouted out to all the people he knew.
The noise is getting louder and louder.
Liang Manshan quickly called his family and said to them: "Quick, follow me and shout."
Although his family members were confused, they were obedient.
Then they imitated his example and kept slapping the fence and shouting loudly: "Someone comes quickly! Someone comes quickly!"
The victims who knew the inside story shouted together with them, their lungs breaking.
The victims who didn't know what was going on looked at them stupidly.
Later, I realized that the guard at the door seemed not to be there.
He was ready to move.
"The two bandits are not here, let's run."
"Don't dare. If we are caught, our child will be beaten."
"We all run away, the bandits can't catch us."
"Child, mother, give me the child quickly." A man was moved and carried the child on his back.
