Chapter 1093: Does koi bring blessing or disaster (45)
There were still few bandits who were really desperate for their lives. The villagers became brave and the bandits fled in a hurry.
"Team of three." Yuhua shouted, reminding the villagers who were chasing the bandits.
A single villager will suffer a big loss when facing bandits who jump over the wall in a hurry.
"Li Zheng!" a villager exclaimed.
A tall and strong bandit escaped from the villagers' encirclement. Just as he was running toward the back mountain, Jiao Qizhong stood in front of him with a wolf whip.
Seeing someone blocking the way, the tall and strong mountain bandit would chop him down with his knife.
Jiao Qizhong stabbed the opponent with the wolf sword in his hand but missed. When he saw the opponent coming, he stepped back and tried to distance himself, but his leg had been injured at some point and he was old, so he didn't look for it when he stepped back.
Good balance, fell to the ground.
He didn't bother to get up and raised the wolf sword in his hand, still trying to stop the tall and strong bandit.
"You dare to stop your Sixth Grandpa, you are seeking death." The tall and strong mountain bandit was Liuzi. He was in a hurry to escape, and he raised his steel knife to kill the enemy in front of him.
It only happened in a moment. No one else was close, and it was too late to save him.
Zihua was also far away, but she had the bow and arrow she had ripped off from the bandit. She raised her hand and shot an arrow into one of Liuzi's temples. The arrow came out from the other temple, and Liuzi died instantly.
.
Zihua took up the bow again and shot three arrows in succession. Each arrow hit an escaped bandit.
The other bandits were beaten to death, and those who were not beaten to death were not far from death. They only had time to vent their anger.
Seeing the corpses of dead bandits scattered everywhere, many villagers felt uncomfortable, and some vomited on the spot.
After beating someone to death, I felt a little confused and panicked, but when I thought that these were bandits who did all kinds of evil, they were trying to protect their homes and eliminate evil and do good, I felt a little more at ease.
My stomach was rumbling, but I was glad that none of the children at home had seen these bloody scenes.
I don't know who took the lead in shouting, bringing a burst of cheers.
Seeing the tall and strong bandit who died in front of him, Jiao Qizhong burst into tears.
Jiao Qizhong's eldest son, Jiao Bohou, came over early and helped Jiao Qizhong up from the ground, "Dad, why are you out here too?" His reproachful words were full of worry and concern, "You don't even look at how old you are. If something happens to you, we will
How can it be easy?"
Jiao Qizhong is old, so he should stay indoors and hide.
Jiao Qizhong kicked the dead Liuzi, expressing endless hatred and vicissitudes, "This beast is the murderer of your brother. I will never forget his voice until my death."
Jiao Bohou now understood why his father came out regardless of his own safety. It was he who heard the bandit's voice and recognized his enemy.
Jiao Bohou picked up the bamboo pole on the ground and hit it hard on the body of the tall bandit to vent his hatred.
Jiao Qizhong was not sad for long, he still had to do what Li Zheng should do.
The body of the bandit cannot just be left like this, it needs to be dealt with as soon as possible.
As a rule, this matter should be reported to the county, and the bandit's body should be taken to the county government office for the county magistrate to handle the follow-up.
Jiao Qizhong asked the villagers to pile the corpses outside the village first so as not to scare the children in the village.
Yuhua suggested to Jiao Qizhong not to report it, but threw the bandit's body into a ravine and buried it.
"If the news spreads that all the bandits were killed in Weishan Village, it will trigger the revenge of the other bandits." When Yuhua killed the bandits, he deliberately left the bandit leader known as Wu Ye at the end.
, searched his memory.
Only a small group of bandits came to Weishan Village, and there were more than 200 people in the village.
The hundred or so bandits despised the villagers. The villagers were calculating mentally and unintentionally, and she, who had a plug-in, killed most of them. The villagers killed the bandits so smoothly.
"If you put it in the newspaper, the killing of bandits in Weishan Village will soon become known to everyone, and the bandits will definitely take revenge on Weishan Village.
When the time comes, the bandits will come prepared and they will be beyond the ability of the villagers to deal with."
Jiao Qizhong also thought about the consequences of retaliation from the bandits if he resisted, but if he didn't resist, the villagers would be killed or injured.
What he thought was different from that of Zhou Hua. What he wanted was to report the incident and receive credit for killing the bandits in exchange for the government sending people to protect the villagers, so that when the bandits came to retaliate, they would be killed in one fell swoop.
Having seen what Zhou Hua was capable of, he carefully considered Zhou Hua's suggestion. He let out a slight "hiss" and asked, "You mean, if we don't spread the word, the bandits won't retaliate? Don't you think so?"
Should we retaliate more harshly?"
"Because the bandits are afraid of making a big fuss and attracting the attention of the capital. If someone reports it to the emperor and the emperor orders the annihilation of the bandits, their good days will be over." Yuhua originally had many doubts about the existence of this group of bandits.
After searching Wu Ye's memory, although her suspicions were not completely confirmed, some of her doubts were resolved.
Jiao Qizhong had one doubt solved and a new one came up, "Since the bandits didn't want to make things worse, why did they retaliate after reporting to the police?"
"Weishan Village killed more than a hundred bandits in one fell swoop. After spreading the word, everyone knew that bandits were not that scary. As long as we worked together, we could kill all the invading bandits.
The fear that the bandits have deliberately created over the years will no longer exist. The bandits will definitely revive their ferocious image by taking revenge on Weishan Village, making the surrounding villagers more afraid of them and less afraid to go deep into the mountains."
Jiao Qizhong took a breath and said, "There is something wrong with them."
He has realized that this group of bandits is not, at least not all robbing for the sake of wealth. They come to the village to rob at the end of every year, nor are they the New Year tooth-beating festival that the bandits say.
The bandits wanted to prevent outsiders from entering the mountain range occupied by the bandits.
There are secrets hidden deep in the mountains, and everything the bandits do is to cover up this secret.
He had never thought about this in the past because the bandits were too cruel and seemed to do everything for money.
When the word "bandits" is mentioned, the first thing that comes to mind is that they kill people and steal goods, and few people think of other places.
Since it was to hide the secret, the bandits would not commit any serious crimes to avoid attracting the court's army. Knowing that the more than 100 bandits were killed by people from Weishan Village, as long as the news did not spread, the bandits would not
Will take revenge easily.
Because Weishan Village is a tough one, it is not cost-effective to retaliate, and no one knows about it. It will have little impact on their layout over the years, so there is no need for revenge.
"If the people from the government can kill the bandits, the bandits will not exist for so many years. Even if the people from the government can send people, they can protect you for a while at most, and the bandits will wait for the people from the government to leave before coming to take revenge."
Yuhua's words completely put an end to Jiao Qizhong's idea of reporting it to the government.
Jiao Qizhong immediately decided to do as Yu Hua said.
He and Yuhua took the lead, instructing the villagers to throw the bandit's body into a ravine where few people went, bury it, and asked the villagers not to spread the news about today's incident.
The authority that Jiao Qizhong had established over the years, and the rumor that Zi Hua had become half a disciple of the mountain god today, made the villagers fear her even more than Jiao Qizhong, so the villagers followed suit without asking any questions.
It took an hour to drag the body to the ravine and bury it.
Afterwards, the bloodstains and traces in the village were dealt with, and it seemed that no fighting had occurred in the entire village.
