You won't hear the tip of the iceberg, think you know the truth, and then take action.
If monks on the mountain want to interfere in worldly affairs, they actually need to be extremely cautious.
Even if some monks kill 10,000 civilians, there will be no cause and effect.
But some monks, even if they are doing justice for heaven and just killing a bad guy, they will suffer huge karmic backlash.
Xi Zhong had to pay attention to such mysterious and mysterious things.
In fact, Xi Zhong really didn't want to take care of it at first, but his heart, which still contained a little chivalrous feeling, was beating at this moment. After all, he was the one who encountered injustice. If he didn't intervene, then his heart would be full of trouble.
A little uneasy.
After the middle-aged man was happy, he calmed down immediately, and then glanced at Xi Zhong. After he calmed down, he naturally would not really believe that the young man in green shirt in front of him was really sent by Mingyue Village.
people.
But he probably felt that Xi Zhong didn't seem to be a bad person, and he also knew about the existence of Mingyue Village, so it didn't matter if he told him the information.
After some hesitation, the middle-aged man finally spoke slowly.
He first asked: "Little boy, have you ever heard of this group of bandits from Jiudaotang?"
Xi Zhong nodded and smiled: "How could I not have heard of Jiu Dao Tang? But just because I just arrived at Mingyue Village, the leader of the village directly sent me here to inquire about information, so for Jiu Dao Tang and Mingyue Village
The relationship between them is still somewhat unclear, after all, they were rushed into battle temporarily."
The middle-aged man frowned a little when he heard this.
He's still a newbie?
Is Mingyue Village so short of manpower now? Are there even no people sent out to inquire about information?
But he was too lazy to care about it. Now he was in a desperate situation. His daughter and wife were always in danger of being robbed by the bandit. He could only be forced to believe that this young man in green shirt was really the Mingyue Village.
The intelligence disk that was sent here.
The middle-aged man did not pay too much attention to the loopholes in Xi Zhong's words, but simply explained: "The situation in Huoshu Village is not optimistic now. I heard that the head of Jiudaotang has already spoken to Mingyue Village.
It is said that if they don’t come out to fight with Jiu Dao Tang, they Jiu Dao Tang will massacre the surrounding villages, and our Huoshu Village will also be within the scope of this massacre..."
"As for the information... I only know that every seven days, one of the chiefs of Jiudaotang will lead the bandits to our Huoshu Village to collect a certain amount of food. And now the villagers of our Huoshu Village
We don’t have much food stored. If we continue to hand it over, I’m afraid there will be no food left for the winter..."
"So I don't beg Mingyue Village to completely eradicate Jiudaotang. I just hope that we, the villagers of Huoshu Village, can be rescued. I can even work for you in Mingyue Village..."
Listening to the words of this middle-aged man, Xi Zhong finally understood that in the eyes of the common people, Mingyue Village was probably regarded as a hero who robbed the rich and helped the poor, rather than a bandit.
Xi Zhong blinked and continued to ask: "Where is the Jiudaotang's fortress?"
Although the middle-aged man was wondering if this young man in green shirt was not from Mingyue Village? Why didn’t he even know the location of the enemy Jiudaotang’s village?
But he was too lazy to worry about it so much. He turned around and pointed to the north, "Here, it's the biggest mountain over there. If you see it, it's the one covered in mist."
Xi Zhong turned around and saw that there was indeed a towering mountain standing there. From here, the village on the mountainside was vaguely visible.
Ouch, so close.
Xi Zhong smiled and said: "It also saved a lot of effort."
"What did you say, little kid? Are you going back to Mingyue Village to report the news?"
Xi Zhong smiled bitterly upon hearing this.
Where is this going?
This is just some common information.
Moreover, at the beginning, the female village leader of Mingyue Village wanted to lurk in Huoshu Village and inquire for information. She was probably just asking her to take advantage of the chaos. The information she inquired about was probably false. She wanted to find out the Jiudaotang bandits.
The frequency of occurrence is true.
"It's nothing. I just said that it's so close. It seems like I have time left to make another trip. If the Jiudaotang's village is too far away from here, it would be a little difficult for me to go up there and check the information secretly."
Xi Zhong smiled.
The middle-aged man nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, it's so close. You shouldn't have to worry so much. Little brother, can you go back and report the news now? The chief of Jiu Dao Tang will probably come tomorrow. By then,
Only if you people from Mingyue Village take action can our people in Huoshu Village be saved..."
Xi Zhong suddenly waved his hand at this moment, and then said with a smile: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, this kind of thing cannot be rushed. Mingyue Village is in a very bad situation now, and there is a shortage of manpower. There is also a war with Jiudaotang elsewhere.
There are already some manpower shortages here..."
The middle-aged man's face gradually became decadent as he listened to Xi Zhong's words.
At the same time, he also became more convinced that Xi Zhong was the person sent by Mingyue Village.
But what's the use?
It is very likely that the head of Jiu Dao Tang will actually lead the bandits here tomorrow. When the barefoot man files a complaint, it is estimated that the head of Jiu Dao Tang will go crazy and will definitely use strong methods to kill his daughter.
He snatched it away from his wife.
The reason why he so hurriedly asked Xi Zhong to quickly inform Mingyue Village was to save his daughter and daughter-in-law?
Do you really want him to do what he said just now and would rather strangle his wife and daughter to death than let them be insulted by bandits?
The middle-aged man's face looked decadent, and Xi Zhong saw it.
Xi Zhong suddenly laughed and said: "Uncle, although I said that I won't go back to Mingyue Village to report the news for the time being, you don't have to be so desperate. After all, I'm still here. Now I have a plan that can ensure that your daughter and I
My wife won’t be robbed and raped by bandits, how about that?”
The middle-aged man looked stunned and asked: "You...little boy, do you really have a plan to get my daughter and wife out of danger?"
Xi Zhong smiled and said: "I will follow you back to Huoshu Village tonight, uncle, and live in Huoshu Village. I will directly guarantee it with my own life. If the bandits come tomorrow, I will not be able to escape.
So, if I really don’t have a plan, how can I dare to follow you back to Huoshu Village?"
The middle-aged man no longer cared about so much. He could only believe in Xi Zhong, so he nodded directly and said: "Okay, okay, I can take you back to the village to live. I also have a newly built tile house."
Where is the house! It was originally used as a dowry for my daughter, but now..."
Speaking of which, the middle-aged man's face became sad again.
Xi Zhong looked speechless.
Uncle, your mood is really ups and downs. All these things remind you of your current desperate situation.
Didn't I say that I have a plan to protect your wife and daughter from being poisoned by bandits?
Why don't you believe me?
Immediately, the middle-aged man rubbed his face again, finally relieved his emotions, and then said: "In addition... In fact, there are already some gangsters in the village who have secretly defected to the bandits. I know this.
The other villagers actually know it, so after you follow me into the village, little boy, don't reveal your traces. Otherwise, if you are discovered by those gangsters, and then they tip off the head of Jiudaotang, then you
It is very likely that the plan will not be implemented."
Xi Zhong just smiled and nodded, "This kid understands."
Finally, the middle-aged man hesitated slightly, and then said: "Finally... little kid, if you really can't save us, it's okay. You can just run away. But before running away, it's best to
You are going to kill me. Instead of dying in the hands of those bandits, it would be better for me to die in your hands, little kid. Then when you run away, little kid...well, if you have the chance, take my daughter and
Wife, just run to the back mountain. Bandits don’t dare to enter the back mountain because there are the most wolves, jackals, tigers and leopards there..."
Xi Zhong smiled bitterly and said: "According to what you said, uncle, even if the boy takes your daughter and wife to the back mountain in the end, won't he die in the mouths of beasts like wolves, jackals, tigers and leopards in the end?"
As a result, the middle-aged man smiled coldly, and his smile was full of determination, "It doesn't matter, instead of letting my daughter and daughter-in-law die in the torture of the Jiudaotang bandits, it would be better to let them die in the mouths of those wolves, jackals, tigers and leopards."
The result is better.”
Xi Zhong listened in silence.
This world seems to be filled with cruelty all the time.
Especially "weak" people like the middle-aged man in front of me, in this world, it seems that they can really only follow the ups and downs of fate.
Destiny told him to die, and it seemed that he had no choice but to die.
At most, he can only choose how to die.
And it is enough to show how ruthless these bandits of Jiu Daotang are. They actually made such a simple and honest man say, "Death in their hands is worse than death in the mouths of wolves, jackals, tigers and leopards."
.
Xi Zhong smiled and asked: "Actually, I'm very curious, uncle, why don't you take your wife and daughter and fly away? Even if you go towards Mingyue Village, there should be a way to survive, right?"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man smiled bitterly again, "If I can take my wife and daughter away, can I not leave? Even if I really go in the direction of Jiudaotang, will Mingyue Village be willing to take us in?
He also said that if he refuses to take him in, then I will be more likely to die with my wife and daughter, and..."
The middle-aged man's voice lowered, "And the gangsters in Huoshu Village are always vigilant about our movements. Once we escape, they will immediately inform the bandits of Jiudaotang, and then Jiudaotang will
The bandits came out to hunt us down, are we still dead?"
