Goethe was stunned for a moment, and then the "Blood Crow Spirit" that had already flown out returned to his field of vision - he saw among the white snow, a group of a hundred people holding swords and guns rushing towards his position.
The leader wore a rabbit-skin hat and held a large knife in his hand, but at his waist were three muskets - similar to flintlock muskets, but a little different.
Behind him were a dozen strong men in cotton-padded clothes, each with a ferocious face and murderous intent.
The remaining people were much worse off. Although they also had weapons, they were all simple knives and pitchforks modified from farm tools, not to mention any muskets.
bandit!
Goethe came up with this answer the moment he saw this group of people.
The field of vision shifted slightly, and the sentry in the village had already lit the torch.
All the young people in the village took action.
In the center of the village, among the tiled houses guarded by high walls, more than a dozen men carrying long muskets rushed out.
Behind him is an old man wearing a dog-skin coat, with a pale face and narrow eyes. Next to the old man is a middle-aged man, who is similar to the people in the village. They all have dark faces, but they are a bit imposing.
According to simple memory, the latter belongs to the old Li family, a big family in the village.
In fact, the entire village has the surname Li.
Everyone is related to each other.
In the early years, Lao Li's family made a fortune from mountain goods. After buying a property in the city, they did not forget about the villages. A large group of young people from the villages came to the city to work with Lao Li's family.
Those guys who just came out carrying long firearms are all locals.
On the two sentry towers, those carrying heavy firearms such as guns were set up by the two sons of the old Li family. One of them was the honest boy who had just delivered eggs to Goethe: Li Changhai.
Li Changhai's name was originally Li Goudan.
Lao Li got rich and thought that his child should be given a promising name, so he asked his husband to name him "Changhai".
The second child did not ask for his husband, but Lao Li came according to his own ideas, and called him: Li Fugui.
"Dad, it was the gangster who broke the kiln. You go back and rest first while I take care of these grandsons!"
Li Changhai was raising his gun in a daze, preparing to give these guys a beating first.
The guy next to him was holding a gun so that Li Changhai could take aim.
The people in the village hated these gangsters.
On weekdays, these gangsters in the black land are just smashing kilns and kidnapping people. After that, they go to Huo Huo. Those who follow the rules can still lose money and avoid disasters. Those who don't have the rules really mean that the more money they pay, the more they will die.
Go fast.
But if there is a girl or a young wife at home, it will be even worse than death.
Li Changhai liked a girl from Wangjiatun before, but he fell in love with her.
Now when I look at Naizi, my eyes are red.
"What are you yelling about?"
"I just know how to yell!"
"Do you understand the rules?"
"ah!"
Lao Li already knew from the waiter that this wave of gangsters seemed to be outnumbered, but in fact only a dozen or so could be beaten, so he immediately stabilized himself, especially the last voice, which was a long one.
Lao Li is pretending to be Lao Tzu.
On weekdays, Lao Li likes to do this.
Now, we have distinguished guests.
Lao Li wants to do this even more.
He, Lao Li, has to act like a father.
However, when he saw his son Li Changhai standing there scratching his head in a daze, he immediately slapped his thigh: "You brat, hurry up and squat down. Are you going to get shot if you show such a big head?"
"What?"
"You want your father to put mourning on you?"
During the quarrel, Lao Li picked up the snow on the ground and threw it on Li Changhai.
Li Fugui on the other side scratched his head, and a smile appeared on his face that was as naive as his brother's.
It's obvious.
His father beat his brother and refused to let him shoot.
If his father didn't hit him, he would just let him shoot.
You know, he had met the sister-in-law from Wangjiatun at that time, and she even wrapped two pieces of candy for him.
Directed at myself (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 2 The Long Sea and Wealth!
Brother gestured.
That means: Hey, look at me.
Then--
Bang!
It's like firing a cannon.
Fireworks burst out from the gun, and the projectiles hit the charging bandits like raindrops.
Thump, thump.
Four or five of the charging bandits fell down.
Seeing his brother shooting, Li Changhai ignored his father and pulled the trigger.
Bang!
The bandit fell again.
"Hey! Brat! What are you doing?"
Lao Li cursed loudly, but he repeatedly ordered the guys around him: "Hurry up, hurry up and beat me hard, these *** bastards!"
Brothers fight, father and son go into battle.
The more I cursed, the tighter I felt in my heart, for fear of bumping into him.
However, on the surface, he is still tough-talking.
"Sir, I made you laugh."
"The two bastards are used to being wild."
"A bit out of control."
As Lao Li spoke, he offered his hand to the old man next to him who was wearing a dog-skin coat and had narrow eyes.
The old man looked at this scene and waved his hand as if he had a clear mind.
"It doesn't matter, Changhai. Wealth and honor come from a pure heart."
What is a pure heart?
Lao Li was a little confused, but judging from his tone, he was probably complimenting him, so he immediately handed him over again.
"It's funny, it's funny."
"Sir, please go inside for a while. It's too windy outside."
"I don't know what's going on with these gangsters. It's obviously winter, but they still come out to destroy the kiln. It's probably because there's no food in the mountains. They want to open meat at the end of the year. All the guys in our shop are here, so they can't count.
What to get on."
Lao Li said as he greeted the old man into the house.
He himself picked up two muskets and ran towards the village wall.
In his early years, Lao Li was a hunter in the mountains. He accidentally dug out a century-old ginseng root and went to the city to buy it. He happened to meet the gentleman just now and did not cheat him. He even gave him an extra 10% and helped him.
After he opened his shop and his life got better, he asked people to buy things for the village. Just like his courtyard walls, they were made of straw braids wrapped in big mud, with big green twists inside, which made them strong and resistant to beatings.
, even firearms cannot penetrate it.
However, he kept an eye on it.
Specially used for shooting black guns outside.
Lao Li opened a piece and quietly handed the gun out, aiming at those guys who looked like they were holding guns.
Lao Li has a clear understanding of these guys.
After killing the leaders, the rest are just like him, digging in the soil.
Just fire two shots to disperse them.
Therefore, you must attack the leading ones first.
Bang!
As soon as the gunfire rang out, a bandit with a gun fell to the ground.
Then there was another shot, and another bandit with a gun fell to the ground.
Lao Li was an Orion hunter in his early years. Although he used bows and arrows back then and now uses firearms, his accuracy is not bad at all. In addition, the ten men are all the same, so there are many people at once.
On the contrary, the outnumbered bandits were beaten so hard that they could not hold their heads up and retreated continuously.
The old man wearing a shit jacket lifted the door curtain and watched this scene.
Then, he quietly retreated.
There was another person sitting inside the room.
The satin and woolen black shirt was embroidered with gold thread. Sitting there, you could still see that he was thin, but his face was extremely white. He looked indescribably good-looking. If he looked carefully, he had no Adam's apple, which was obvious.
It's a woman disguised as a man.
"Miss, we can't stay in Lijiatun any longer."
"This group of people should be the ears and eyes thrown out by the eldest young master."
"As long as the investigation is clear, the young master's good men will come to the door."
Different from before, the old man at this moment frowned slightly and looked helpless.
"Uncle Wang, don't you have any other options?"
The woman called the eldest lady looked sad.
"No more."
"The master left the family property to you, but not to the eldest young master. This still needs to be redeemed."
"And you were soft-hearted before and let the young master go. This has turned into a dead end."
Uncle Wang smiled bitterly.
Then (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 2 The Long Sea and Wealth!
The eldest lady bowed her head and remained silent.
Her father left her a huge inheritance and didn't leave a cent to her brother. She couldn't bear it, so she gave some to her, but her brother wanted more. Uncle Wang planned to capture him and he was ready to go directly.
She couldn't bear the family law, so she quietly let her brother go. As a result, who knew, he was killed. Using the money, her brother formed a group of desperadoes and directly attacked the old house in the city.
If Uncle Wang hadn't realized the situation quickly, she would have died long ago.
But now, it's not much better.
They were hiding in XZ, but Uncle Wang thought that he had a good relationship with Lijiatun, so he came here to stay temporarily.
Can……
It's also useless.
"Uncle Wang..."
The young lady raised her head and wanted to say something.
There is both regret and self-blame.
She thought of those people at home.
They should all be killed by her brother... no, that white-eyed wolf.
"I have been doing good deeds and doing good deeds all my life. Who would have thought that I would raise such a white-eyed wolf as "Wang Tianyou"? If I had known about this, I might as well have let him live on the street and freeze to death twenty years ago."
Uncle Wang knew very well what his eldest daughter wanted to say, but he didn't let the eldest daughter say it.
He knew that the eldest lady was suffering in her heart.
It's even more painful to say it out loud.
That's not a confession, it's a stab in the heart.
Still don’t say it.
"Miss, let's go."
Uncle Wang reminded again.
"Would you like to remind Uncle Li?"
The eldest lady asked.
"Old Li is a good man. Although he had the name of our family in his early years, he was able to move around in the city because of his own ability. Moreover, it is impossible for Old Li not to be unclear about what happened to the Wang family in the city. Once he knew it, he would still be able to do so.
He dares to take us in just to repay his kindness, so we can just leave him a letter telling him the cause and effect."
Uncle Wang waved his hand and took out the letter he had prepared long ago from his sleeve.
There was a trace of guilt in his narrow eyes.
For some words, just lie to the eldest lady.
Uncle Wang knows very well the temperament of my adopted son.
If something like this happens, Lijiatun will definitely suffer.
However, there was nothing he could do.
Things have come to this point.
He can only protect the eldest lady first.
Take the eldest lady to a safe place first, and then?
Then he would pay for the lives of the people in Lijiatun.
Fortunately, he had previously found out that the eldest lady had been released, so he left her an estate in the mountains.
It is impossible to become rich and wealthy.
But you can still get by if you take it out and go to Haimen, Imperial Capital or Huacheng.
Save some money and live a lifetime of food and clothing.
"Let's go, miss."
Putting down the letter, Uncle Wang no longer hesitated and was ready to take the eldest lady away.
But just like this——
Woo!
Woohoo!
A long trumpet sounded in the night. When they heard the trumpet sound, the expressions of Uncle Wang and the eldest lady changed greatly.
This is the chant of the white-eyed wolf guard.
At this time, brothers Li Changhai and Li Fugui were already at their father's side.
"Dad, what is this sound?"
"Why did I feel so scared when I heard it!"
Li Changhai asked.
"Yes, I feel very angry!"
Li Fugui also nodded.
"It's an evil thing."
"The Wang family in the city... please repay us for the kindness we gave you in the early years. Otherwise, we will have to be stabbed in the spine and die underground, and your mother will look down on the man she found."
"Changhai, go and invite Mr. Mo."
"Fugui, you go find the black dog blood."
Lao Li licked his lips that were dry in the winter night. When his tongue stuck out, it hurt from the cold.
"Dad, that guy named Mo is just a liar who just eats and drinks. What's the use of inviting him here now?"
Li Fugui curled his lips, looking very down on Mo Shengyi.
"Shut up."
"Those times you tested, Mr. Mo (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 2 The Long Sea and Wealth!
Your Excellency has a lot, so you don’t care about it, what? I’m giving you face?”
Li Changhai didn't tolerate his younger brother, so he raised his hand and slapped Li Fugui's hat.
Li Fugui's hat was immediately pulled off into the snow.
As the younger brother, Li Fugui was not anxious, he just muttered.
"You are my brother, I listen to you."
"In the next life, you will be my son."
"See if I don't beat you to death."
"What do you think?"
Li Changhai glared at him.
"I'm looking for black dog blood."
Li Fugui said and ran away.
"Dad, then I'm going to invite Mr. Mo. Please be careful and don't get confused."
Li Changhai said and ran towards the village.
Looking at the back of his eldest son, Lao Li wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Regarding Mr. Mo, Lao Li's perception is more inclined to his second son.
But, the boss seemed to be obsessed with it, and he just identified Mr. Mo.
Anyway, the food at home is enough.
Lao Li didn't care anymore.
If you support one more person, support one more person.
Moreover, after observing these days, Mr. Mo can be regarded as his duty, and he is not like the liars in my memory, who set traps and play games for others.
Apart from not liking to interact with people, sometimes it seems like that.
However, whether it is a mule or a horse, it must be led out for a ride.
Never had the chance before.
Now, the big guy is destroying the kiln.
It also carries some evil stuff.
You are Mr. Yin Yang of Lijiatun.
You have to show your skills now.
Of course.
Lao Li has also made plans. If Mr. Mo can do it, he will treat him as a guest. If not, he will give him some money and ask him to leave when spring comes.
He doesn't want his boss to be confused every day.
They are all calling for you to learn how to be patient.
What ability?
Inheriting the family business is the ability.
He must quickly marry a wife, give birth to ten or eight fat boys, and spread the branches and leaves of his old Li family.
The rest?
His old Li family can't reach it.
Not enough either.
Just live a steady life.
While Lao Li was thinking, he looked out through the peephole left behind.
The snow reflects the light, and you can vaguely see a lot of people.
Just behind the lock.
It seems that they are still carrying a sedan chair.
sedan chair?
Old Li frowned.
Immediately afterwards, the person carrying the sedan suddenly lit a torch.
call!
The flames made the outside even brighter.
Lao Li instantly saw clearly what was being carried on the sedan chair.
That's a wild boar.
The wild boar wearing a waistcoat sits like a human being.
