Yue Tao was stunned for a moment and replied: "Ah, I've had this for a few days, and I don't know how I got it. I just feel burning, itching, and stinging occasionally. It's not a big deal."
"Has it spread?" "If you say so, it really has spread a bit, and the area of itch has become larger than before." "I kindly remind you that this disease may be erysipelas-like, and it will kill people once it spreads.
I don't have any good ideas. You can expose your hand to the sun more and more these days. If it doesn't get better, I suggest you chop off this finger." "This... thank you for your kindness." "
Putting that aside, tell me about the situation of your Self-Defense Forces."
Yue Tao recounted:
"Our village once had a highly respected and beloved village chief, my father. There were four people in our family, and we had a lot of land. We often helped our neighbors, and we were respected for it. At that time, the carp party was very powerful.
The jurisdiction of our village was taken away from Bangnan City. Although the lord of Bangnan City also exploited us, after all, the lord of a city still has to consider the lives of the people, so he will relax a little as appropriate when encountering a famine.
The Party is different. They are a gang of gangsters who only want to exploit us and don’t care whether we live or die. My father is so old and he knelt down to beg for mercy several times, but they refused to give in. Therefore, every year when the harvest is bad, our family has to pay for a lot of things.
They had to pay part of the protection fee to survive. I said at that time that we couldn't always retreat and we had to show them how powerful we were, otherwise sooner or later we would not be able to hold on. But my father didn't listen. He said that we couldn't fight against the gangsters at all.
, it will only kill more people. He is the father and I am the son. It doesn’t matter what I said, I can only give up.
But that year, the weather was unfavorable. During the spring plowing season, there was a severe drought and the seedlings could not grow. During the autumn harvest season, it rained continuously. Many grains became moldy and the yield was very low. We could not even pay our own protection fees. At that time,
My father held the visitors' thighs and begged them to leave some food, but it was no use. The only food they had, along with some valuable household items, were taken away. Before leaving, my father was kicked in the head.
At such an old age, my father was kicked and suffered a concussion, and he never woke up. Many people starved to death that year, and many families exchanged their children for food. Our family also... I can still work in the fields, so I am still young.
My younger brother was taken away by his mother in the middle of the night and sent to someone else's house in exchange for a girl. The girl was older than me, fair and beautiful, with fine skin and tender flesh, and tasted better than the boy. Our family took advantage of it.
'. Because there was a boy and a girl in their family, the boy was kept to work, and the girl was replaced. My mother said that her parents would rather starve to death than replace the child. As a result, she hanged herself that day, so she gave him a gift.
Come here. I saw there were still marks on my neck. My mother asked me to kneel down, acknowledge her as my sister, and kowtow. I knelt down and kowtowed. Any man with gold under his knees would be farting. Then I watched my mother hug her.
Entering the kitchen, there was the sound of chopping meat and bones. I also heard my mother murmuring: 'What a beautiful girl, it's a pity that she was born to the wrong person.' The next day, a bunch of pickled salt was dried out in front of our house.
The meat is her meat. I don’t know what kind of mood my mother was having when she moved her hands. I only know that if it were me, there would be absolutely no way for me to chop up a perfectly good girl, even if she was already dead, with just one knife.
I cut the meat into pieces, leaving the bones to make soup. The meat was salted and hung outside the door to dry. I thought I couldn't eat the meat, but after I fainted from hunger, my mother made broth and fed it to me.
After a while, I finally ate the sister I recognized. I don’t blame my mother, because I didn’t have the courage to eat human flesh. She saved my life. Later, I became numb and ate naturally, but I didn’t eat meat at all.
It felt like eating steamed buns. I chewed it twice and then swallowed it. At the end of the year, it was still not enough, so I ate wild vegetables and bark for a month before I could survive. I heard that that year, many families had their whole families eat.
We were starving to death. Some people came out to steal and cheat when they had nothing to eat, which made us no longer dare to trust others and we had to be on guard against others.
After that, I became a little numb to human life. I was a little afraid of this change, so I asked my mother. She said, you should feel lucky. It is all thanks to your father that you are able to become numb at this age. Only then did I understand why.
The village has always had the traditional custom of exchanging children for food. So when I decided to set the fire, I didn't think burning a child to death was so unforgivable. Of course, this cannot be used as an excuse.
It has been a year since my father passed away, and the harvest this year was average. We helped some neighbors as usual, and everyone felt that the village chief had a good son. So the day before the first anniversary of my father's death, I called everyone together and said that I had been thinking about it for a long time.
I used a set of rhetoric to encourage them to rebel. I said that if this continues, sooner or later we will not even be able to eat the children we can exchange. Sooner or later we will eat up all the bark of the surrounding trees and die. Sooner or later we will eat up all the wild vegetables.
There is nothing to eat, and death is the end of the road. I said that every time they come to collect food, although they have great martial arts skills, there are only three of them. Each of us from each household will get some weapons and fight them to the death. If you don’t dare,
I will take the lead, and you will follow. I don’t remember how I persuaded them. Anyway, the next day, the people who came to collect the grain were hacked to death by us. One of our people died and two were seriously injured, and the others were slightly injured at most.
We celebrated our victory that day. We established the Paweng Village Self-Defense Force, and everyone supported me as the captain. I naively thought that I could lead the village away from the oppression of the gangsters.
As a result, on the third day, the carp gang came. Eight people came, wielding swords and guns, and they were menacing. We resisted desperately, but they killed more than a dozen people without any injuries, and we couldn't get close at all. Only then did we know
There are actually such masters in the Gangster Party, or in other words, there are such powerful people in the world. That time I was lucky enough to survive the subsequent sweep, and it took a lot of effort to reunite the frightened people.
After that, we only dared to do some sneaky things, and occasionally pretended to be bandits to sneak up on people collecting grains. Then, as Lin Bo said, members of the gangsters pretended to be travelers to get information, and they hit us hard again, leaving us unable to
I dare not trust anyone from outside, until today."
Yue Bao's narration was very calm, no matter how appalling or miserable the things he described were. But Li Rong could see that the originally fleshy heart in his chest had become extremely strong because it was filled with patches.
, or in other words, insensitive. However, it is unfortunate that he can live to this day and say so much because of his kindness.
Lian Rong asked calmly: "Do you hate the Gangsters?"
"I hate it, how can I not hate it. But I hate myself even more for being incompetent. I have said so many heroic words, but in the end I can't stick to any beliefs, and I can't achieve any goals. I have to bow to reality, and in the end I am just living an ignoble existence."
"What if...we could help you?"
An imperceptible light flashed in Yue Bao's eyes, and soon dimmed again: "No need. You still have your own lives, there is no need to wade through this muddy water."
Li Rong smiled: "What a coincidence, this is actually the real purpose of our coming here."
This time, Yue Tao's eyes lit up and he looked at Li Rong blankly: "Sir, I am a pariah and I don't dare to expect too much from you. I have only eaten one person in my life," he gritted his teeth, "If there can be a second person,
, I hope, is the leader of the Carp Party! If you can help me do it, my miserable life will be yours!"
"make a deal."
Yue Bao knelt down on one knee and lowered his head, holding up the sickle in his hand: "The Self-Defense Force of Paweng Village is willing to obey your orders and swear allegiance to the death!"
Lian Rong took the sickle, which was engraved with "Wang Scythe of Paweng Village Self-Defense Force". "Okay, I will temporarily accept this team."
Yue Tao, Zinmu mid-term perfection, is the strongest person in this village. There are 316 official members of the Self-Defense Force, all of whom have certain cultivation levels. In addition to Yue tabu, there are 5 Zinmu mid-term, 40 early Zinmu perfection, and the others are
At 13:00 in the early period, under the command of Li Rong, 316 self-defense team members stood up. Li Rong commented: "Compared to this number, the master lineup is indeed weak. There are big forces outside, and there must be one among the 316 people.
It's late." The team members were silent. "But that's not what I care about. Indeed, the world is actually ruled by the monk class, and the monks occupy the main power in the world. But this situation will not last long.
Soon, there will be a revolutionary factor that can equalize the power of monks and mortals. You don't need to know too much about the specifics. I need to examine your fighting will now. Our current enemy is undoubtedly the gangsters. Why do we
Want to defeat them? Because they impoverish us, deprive us of the fruits of our labor, massacre our relatives and friends, and if we don't resist, they will continue. The Self-Defense Forces are fighting to end all this! But remember, victory is only possible
You can only get it by risking your life on your own. Don't rely on outside help! Now I am testing your fighting ability. Are you really willing to risk your life for all this, and absolutely obey my command. If I am satisfied,
I will provide further assistance to you, and we will defeat the gangsters together and share the fruits of victory. If you disappoint me, make me feel that you have lost your fighting spirit, and make me feel that you are perfunctory and waiting for my help.
Then I will defeat the gangsters. But at that time, I will be the only winner. You are just a group of losers. You must accept my rule obediently. How I rule you is up to me.
You can only be at the mercy of others because you have done nothing! If you don’t want it to be like that, just show your ruthlessness, fight the enemy with all your strength, scare them, and victory will come naturally! War has always been the hymn of the winner.
, the loser’s nightmare. I will design an ingenious strategy, and Shutong will treat your injuries. If a high-level monk appears unexpectedly, Choi Chuo will deal with it. As for ordinary enemies, you must defeat them with your own hands. Pay attention, Choi Chuo will
The high-level monks who take action must be in the escape stage or higher, and the mother stage is not concerned! You may die, and die miserably. In the hands of monks who have perfected the mother stage in the late stage, you may die worse than being killed.
The children you ate were still miserable! But the result is to end those miserable pasts completely! Are you willing?"
"Yes!" the crowd shouted.
"Do you have confidence?"
"have!"
"Do you want to listen to my command?"
"listen!"
"Very good, then let me tell you some specific plans. Our first battle is tomorrow, the day when the gangsters are harvesting food. We don't have much time to train. Our mission is to make them come back without any return! This is the plan
, we dig a trap, insert sharpened branches, and spread hay. During the battle, we lure the few enemies into the trap. After falling, we light the hay and destroy the enemies. The first thing we want to do today is to dig a trap.
, the other is to seal the village, prohibiting anyone from entering or leaving, to prevent anyone from tipping off the gangsters. Then I will arrange the details below."
The Self-Defense Forces are not required to dig traps, ordinary villagers are enough. The Self-Defense Forces mainly patrol the periphery of the village and prohibit anyone from entering or exiting.
The day of decisive battle has arrived.
Three carriages came to the outside of the village in the dust. The three carriage drivers dismounted, and there was one person in each of the three carriages. Ever since they suffered losses, the carp party no longer dared to send only three people. It took six people to feel at ease, and
These six people are all middle-aged parents, four girls and two boys.
"Brother, do you think these untouchables will obediently pay their bills this time?" The speaker was a charming young girl with long black hair and a beautiful face, red mist devil horns on her head, and a phantom claw and devil scale skirt. Above?
?-shaped pattern, with a murderous and ruthless temperament.
"Don't worry, the party sent some good guys to give them a hard lesson last time. They shouldn't dare to resist anymore." The answer was a young man with short hair and a pea face, and the same thing on his white short sleeves?
?-shaped pattern, blue shorts, wearing an angel halo, and dressed up weirdly.
"But I'm still a little scared." "Pretend, keep pretending. I didn't see you scared in bed last night. Don't worry, if anything happens, I'll catch you by mistake." "Hehe~"
Entering the village, the village was completely silent. There was no living person at a glance. There were large pieces of straw and straw scattered on the ground. The autumn wind blew, and it was desolate and gloomy. "What's going on..." The six people looked around, bleakly.
The sight is heart-stopping.
"Hmph, you're just pretending to be a god!" Jucuo said with disdain, "You untouchables, all come out to me and collect protection fees!"
No one responded.
Three seconds later, an old lady crawled out from a pile of straw in front of her. She was in ragged clothes and her face was colorfully painted, "????????郃??????" She giggled, her eyes were confused, "??
????????????”
Then, a group of villagers in shabby clothes and with all kinds of meaningless colors on their faces came out from inside and outside the residence and from the cracks in the corners and doors. They made all kinds of strange noises and staggered around: "???
"??????紴?????????" "絍hard?????????" "??????碜??鞡倎??????" The words are vague
It was unclear, like a group of zombies! They were not zombies with bare hands, but they were slowly surrounding us, dragging hoes, carrying sickles, hammers, and shovels.
"What's wrong with these people?" The six people looked at this strange scene and unconsciously formed a circle back to back, alert. The person closest to them had already begun to wave a shovel that smelled of swill and approached the six people.
An old lady wearing heavy makeup.
The old lady was old-hearted, and when she smelled the swill on the shovel, she immediately became furious: "How dare you, an untouchable, taint my innocence!"
One sentence finally broke the confrontation. The six people used their own methods, punching and kicking. At first, the four women were reluctant to come into contact with these foul-smelling villagers, but later they couldn't care less about mysophobia after they entangled them endlessly, and they fought together.
"The untouchables dare to dirty my body, I'll kill you!" However, the more they killed, the dirtier they got.
The villagers were not just beaten. The elites of the Self-Defense Force pressed forward and began to fight with the six people. They did not forget to make strange sounds on their lips and still faithfully acted as zombies; those with low cultivation level fought desperately.
They came up and used their own body cavities to block the enemy's attack. The six of them felt trapped in an endless quagmire, and the endless "zombie" were wearing down their physical strength and patience bit by bit. Unknowingly, they had been forced to the center of the village.
.
Bang! Without any warning, the straw under the six people's feet suddenly sank.
"It's a trap!" "Oops!" "Uh-huh!"
An unlucky young woman was immediately impaled by a sharp branch and died. Others were also injured to varying degrees. Some of the zombies that fell with them also died on the branches, and those who survived continued to live and die.
They threw themselves at them. "Damn it!" an old woman was furious. There were still half bloody branches stuck on her breasts that had shrunk due to aging. She directly pulled out the branches and burned the two zombies. Others also
They killed the living zombies one after another. At this time, a few torches were thrown down from their heads, and the zombies gathered around the entrance of the cave, grinning condescendingly, and continued to make strange screams of unknown meaning.
"It's over!" The torch quickly ignited the dried straw, and the pit suddenly fell into a sea of fire.
"Ah——" "Damn it!" "Untouchables, let us out!"
The five living people climbed up frantically, and an old man slipped and fell into the fire and never climbed up again. The zombies at the entrance of the cave continued to throw down firewood and straw, and the fire rose ragingly, with black smoke billowing and hanging in the cave.
The three women and one man on the wall were in danger of suffocation again. The one-eyed girl's dress had been riddled with holes. She had just inhaled a large puff of black smoke, coughed desperately, and almost fell into the fire pit. Her breasts were pierced.
The old woman lost too much blood and was suffocated. Her hands went limp and she fell down. She couldn't even scream. The old woman with heavy makeup desperately climbed to the entrance of the cave. What greeted her was the sickle of the god of death, and she was harvested in a flash of cold light.
her head.
There were only two people left. Below were the rising flames and billowing smoke, and above were the villagers sharpening their knives. There was no way out. Jucuo glanced at the one-eyed girl and said, "Come on, let's... beg for mercy?"
Fieju couldn't bear it any longer and cried loudly: "Grandpas, grandmas and fellow villagers above, we have realized our mistake and we will never dare to bully you again. Let us out... Wuwuwu~" Tears streamed down his face.
DC, the covered eye was also crying, I don’t know whether it was from crying or being stimulated by the smoke.
Jucuo also wailed: "Men of Paweng Village, we have surrendered, let us out, we can do whatever we want -"
Phosphorus Rong was waiting for these words. She stood at the entrance of the cave and said: "We will throw down a rope to pull you up, but only one can come up at a time, otherwise we will throw you down together!"
"Please hurry up, I'm dying~" he cried.
Lian Rong directed everyone: "Pull one up and immediately push him to the ground and tie him up. If he resists, he will be killed! If two people grab the rope at the same time, just throw him down!"
"clear!"
The two of them seemed to have sincerely surrendered and did not dare to resist. They first had an argument with each other, and then gathered together. They were pulled up one by one and tied up obediently. Then people pushed several carts of earth and rocks and poured them into the pit to fill it up.
.
Feiju and Jucuo sat obediently in Lin Zhong's half-built house, not daring to move. As soon as Luo Rong came in, she looked over pitifully. Luo Rong looked at it and found it funny. Sitting next to them, it felt like she hadn't seen them for many years.
An old friend of mine asked kindly:
"Isn't this the first time you have surrendered?"
"Uh," Jucuo hesitated for a moment, then replied honestly: "Your Excellency, we surrendered to the Gangster Party from Bangna City."
"What about before?"
"Before... there were so many times that I can't remember, hehe, hehe." Jucuo smiled sheepishly. "Don't be offended, sir. People like us are actually not uncommon in the Niandian area, because the various forces compete and change too frequently.
, you have to keep surrendering in order to save your life, no one is willing to work hard for a force that will fall soon, right?" Jiujiu quickly defended.
Li Rong nodded: "That's understandable. What's wrong with your eyes?"
"Well, I don't know how long ago I was in a battle and was knocked unconscious. After I woke up, I couldn't see this eye. Alas." Speaking of this sarcasm, it is inevitable to feel a little sad. "Some people with good eyes still need to bring a
I'm trying to be cool with the blindfold, but only when I'm really blind do I know how uncomfortable it is to see with one eye, and I can't tell the difference between distance and distance."
"It's okay, I can be your eyes." Jucuo interrupted.
"Brother Wong is still the best to me~"
"Okay, stop talking nonsense." Lian Rong hurriedly interrupted these two guys who wanted to show off their affection when they disagreed. He wanted to use his affinity to make them relax their guard, so that they could easily ask questions, but they actually forgot that they were still
The prisoner, minding his own business, began to talk about love. "I'll ask you a few questions and answer them honestly, and I won't harm your lives."
"Excuse me, sir." Jucuo realized that he was now being interrogated.
"Who is the leader of the Gangster Party? How strong is it?" "The boss's name is Buju, and his parents are in the late stages of success, but I heard he has a Zhizhi sect background."
"Pun Zhizong." Li Rong smiled, "Things are getting interesting."
"Sir, the Punishing Zhizong is not easy to mess with. You should stay out of the way for a while..." "Haha, they are not the only ones with people behind them." "Well, could it be that you are behind someone..." "Be careful that trouble comes from your mouth." "
…”
Phosphorus Rong asked some more details about the carp gang. "Congratulations on getting rid of the crisis of death." Phosphorus Rong said with a smile. The few questions he asked, both of them knew everything and were well-founded. If this can still be done
It was a lie, and Lian Rong thought she was unlucky. "But after all, you have just surrendered. We will inevitably have to fight a few more battles with the carp gangs in the future, and it will be inconvenient for you to stay here. I will ask someone to send you away."
