Qi Kangfu slapped his thigh fiercely, "Yes, what are we afraid of?"
He always regretted not being able to go with his elder brother to Sanhe Town.
He tightened his grip on the long knife hanging on his waist. Qi Bao'er had gotten it for his three brothers from somewhere. The men who participated in the Wu Mansion's battle for the knife had already gone to find it on their own.
He prayed for health without saying a word, but he also had the same ruthless look on his face.
It can be said that after passing through Sanhe Town, the men of Lao Qi's family changed somewhat and became more and more attached to the bandits.
The scholar Qi Kangtai saw that his father and three brothers were so aggressive, so he got up and turned around and ran back.
Qi Kangan stretched his neck from behind and asked, "What are you doing?"
"I'll get my knife."
-
As soon as the leader of the large team came out of the mountain road, a group of people poured out in a semicircle in front of them. They were dressed in tatters but had fierce looks on their faces. They all held sticks and wooden sticks in their hands.
only,,,
The people who came out of the mountain road were led by Qi Kang'an, followed by the other three brothers of Lao Qi's family, and then one after another men rushed out.
There were sounds of "噌", "噌" and "噌" drawing out the sword, and the blade of the sword shone coldly in the cold morning light.
Men are still pouring out of the mountain pass, all holding long sticks about one meter long in their hands. The sticks in the hands of the refugees have all become younger brothers.
The refugees who came around were all dumbfounded. Didn't they say that the people who came back from exploring the road were a group of very rich people but they were farmers like them?
How come they have knives?
This is a knife and a long stick, and they are all staring at them as if they are looking for death. Are they farmers?
"What are you going to do?" Qi Fugui yelled with a ferocious face.
A man who was about forty years old walked out of the refugee pile. Although his clothes were dirty and torn, it could still be seen that he was wearing a long gown.
"We misunderstood, we really misunderstood. We thought he was a bad person. Everyone is fleeing, and they have to take care of their families when they come out. We are also worried that the people who come will hurt our families."
Ah, are you worried that a group of people holding sticks will try to surround them?
Qi Kang'an swung the knife downwards with a cold face, and the sound of breaking the wind reached the ears of many refugees on the opposite side.
The middle-aged man's eyes flashed, and the smile on his face froze slightly.
Qi Kang'an said: "We are just passing by, we don't offend the river."
The middle-aged man smiled and nodded sharply, "Of course, of course, it's not easy for everyone."
Qi Kang'an did not move, staring sharply at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man smiled and looked more and more stiff. After a few breaths, he turned around and shouted to the refugees as if he just remembered.
"Everyone move away, everyone move away. We are all fellow villagers. We are all brothers. You guys, make way, make way, make way for your brothers."
This man was obviously the leader of this group of refugees. As soon as he said this, the refugees began to get out of the way, and soon they made way for a path that was about the same size as the cliff path behind them.
Qi Kang'an's face darkened slightly, he called Qi Fugui over and leaned over to say a few words to him.
Qi Fugui nodded heavily and ran back.
Qi Kang'an called Gao Dayou and Qi Erniu over again, "The guys with the tools will be waiting outside the team. Let's go over quickly and won't stop here."
We need to eat and drink before we get out of the mountain.
Several people nodded solemnly and turned around to inform them one by one.
Lao Qi's family was the first to come out of the narrow passage. Sitting on a tall horse was an old man in his forties and fifty who looked over and a baby with one breast???
What kind of magical partner is this?
What's even more strange is that after they got out of the mountain road, instead of walking straight ahead, the old man actually rode his horse to the side of the mountain road and stopped.
Before the refugees had finished their curiosity, another horse came out. This time it was more normal. Behind the horse was a cart, eh??
What's that on the cart?
Don’t you mean very rich peasants?
All the clothes are well-worn [found in the Wu family], but this patch-by-patch sack is almost the same as theirs.
And what does the withered weeds exposed from the torn sack mean?
If they asked, people from Lao Qi's family would tell them that it was wilted nail grass.
Many villagers have no dry food to eat, and they have been rushing all the way. There is no time to cook for them. Even if they get a lot of good things from Sanhe Town, they can only pick up some wild vegetables and weeds on the road.
Satisfy hunger.
There are quite a few refugees in this hinterland, between one and two thousand. There are only five or six hundred of them now, and those who can fight are only a little over three hundred. Just fighting hard is not a problem.
Qi Kang'an called everyone together to discuss, and finally came to a decision, both to intimidate with force and to show weakness.
Hence the scene that the refugees are seeing now.
They were pulled out or pushed out one by one and tied to the outermost parts. The ropes could be cut into them to make deep dents. There were wilted nails and grass exposed from the holes in the sacks of Lao Qi's family, which made the refugees think first, and then
Looking at this cart, the sacks don't look like they contain anything solid. They probably contain weeds and vegetables.
The middle-aged man licked his face and looked closer at Qi Kangfu, who looked rather naive, and asked in a low voice: "Why are all your bags filled with weeds?"
Qi Kangfu looked at him as if he were a fool, "Without food and water, what do we eat if we don't eat grass?"
The middle-aged man choked, what about the water? He thought that several wells in the village were destroyed under his orders.
"Where did you come from, and why did you run out of food so quickly?"
Were they robbed when they were passing through Sanhe Town? These people looked at them with knives and sticks, were they also robbed when they were passing through Sanhe Town?
Qi Kangfu slapped his thigh with a grimace, "Forget it, there was a sudden war. How could there be any food left at home? We were so anxious that we ran away overnight. When we got to Sanhe Town, who knew there was a group of bandits nesting there, and they wouldn't give us food."
They won’t be allowed to cross the town.”
The middle-aged men believed that they themselves were robbed while passing through Sanhe Town.
It's just as miserable. These people don't look easy to mess with, but the middle-aged men are no longer interested.
Before turning around and leaving, he glanced at the direction of Old Man Qi and Qi Bao'er a few more times, focusing on the horse.
Why did he feel that the horse looked familiar?
Men on both sides were either unsheathing their swords or holding long sticks tightly, walking one or two meters apart. People from Qijia Village hurried past on the path blocked by them.
Old men and women were either holding or holding on to their children. They made no unnecessary noise and did not dare to look left or right. They just kept their heads down and trotted forward.
Qi Kang'an and Gao Dayou led the way, and Qi Ba and Er Niu were interspersed in the middle of the team. After everyone came out from the narrow cliff road, Qi Kang'an, Qi Bao'er, Qi Kangfu, and Da Lang Er Lang became the group.
The person walking at the end of the line.
Three tall horses, Qi Kangfu, walked forward. In the middle were Daliang and Erlang riding one horse together. Finally, Old Man Qi and Qi Bao'er had just changed their seats on Qi Bao'er's most majestic and handsome horse.
The team is big, well-dressed, and equipped with knives.
The most important thing is that there is no food for them to grab.
