When the carpenter's aunt heard this, her face was frightened, and she cursed in her mouth why the bandits were coming again soon, and immediately blew out the kerosene lamp on the dining table, and cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks on the table by feeling the darkness, and then groped around at night, and neatly helped the old carpenter carry the chicken coop and hide it in the kitchen.

After everything was done, the old carpenter and his wife pulled the weaving core and Luo Er and hid under the window to quietly listen to the movement outside, and they didn't dare to take a breath, so they had to peek at the situation outside.

A series of actions by the old carpenter couple frightened Rohr and Weaver Core. Weaving Core lowered her voice and calmly asked what Aunt Carpenter was talking about.

Aunt Carpenter made a silent gesture to signal her not to speak loudly or panic, and then told her that there was a thief outside.

Bandit? Weaving Core was a little surprised, she had never seen such a person as a thief when she was so old, she was a little curious, she wanted to see what a thief looked like, and she also learned from Aunt Carpenter to peek into the window.

The window was slightly smaller, allowing multiple people to huddle together to observe, so Luo Er had to secretly release the source qi and use his own mental sensing ability to scan the situation of the bandits outside.

There were a dozen figures in the distance, and with the help of the pale yellow light of the kerosene lamps hanging on the street, in a daze, you could see that these dozen or so figures were all thick and strong men, their heads were covered with black cloth, they were dressed in sackcloth, not very neat, with black cloth belts around their waists, and soft cloth shoes on their feet.

The bandits were robbing one of the houses, and in the bright lights, two bandits held up the old peasant woman of the house, and the other bandits searched the whole house, and bags of grain were constantly being moved out. No matter how hysterical the old peasant woman was, she couldn't help these bandits.

Among them, a rugged-looking bandit leader in a cardigan joked at the elderly peasant woman: "Old woman, I didn't expect you to have so much food hidden at home, just enough to borrow some for the winter." ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, are you okay? You have robbed a lot of grain in our village some time ago, so let's leave a few mouthfuls of grain for our grandchildren. ”

But the leader did not sympathize, but continued to joke and said: "We are very good, we never hurry to kill, I didn't want to take you so much, if you want to blame it, the next time we came, you turned off the lights and pretended that no one was at home, and I, the most disgusted liar, so I must take it today as a punishment for you." Then she laughed, which stimulated the peasant woman's nerves even more.

As soon as these words came out, the thieves present laughed, and they also "accused" this old peasant woman of lying and deserving to be taken so much.

Seeing that the plea was fruitless, the old peasant woman became angry and scolded: "You who have suffered a thousand knives will not die well." If it weren't for the strong men in my village who had joined the army, you would dare to come here?"

"I really don't dare, but you reminded me again, if I don't rob your village in the next year, our first two eldest brothers won't be arrested. Brothers, go, we will rob this village a little more and avenge our previous big brother. ”

"Good. "The bandits are all in response.

Immediately, the bandit leader led his men to the next family, leaving behind a helpless old peasant woman.

On the way to find the next one, the bandit leader was secretly happy in his heart, and thought, but I have to thank you for this Xiyuan Village, if it wasn't for the two big brothers captured by your people last year, I wouldn't be the leader of this group of bandits.

When most of the thieves left the peasant woman's house, one of the thieves gave her a small bag of grain in the old peasant's stunned and angry expression, and then followed the thieves in a daze.

For the act of returning the grain, all the thieves seemed to be surprised by the lot, and continued to carry the guy with a hippie smile to rob the next family.

In the gap between these thieves robbing other farmers, Luo Er told the weaver core in the surprised eyes of the carpenter's aunt that these dozen or so thieves were not strong, indicating that she could easily take them down, but one of them was slightly stronger, and it might take some effort. Ask Xiang Weaving Core if he wants to fight.

After listening to Luoer's words, the carpenter's aunt hurriedly asked Luoer why he was so powerful, and he knew the details of this group of bandits without looking, and the weaving core defended Luoer, saying that Luoer was a practitioner, and he was able to capture some small thieves, and told Aunt Carpenter not to worry, let her tell her the ins and outs of this bandit.

The dim light shone on Weaver's face, and the determined expression made Aunt Carpenter suspicious, but she still whispered to Weaver Core and Rohr.

It turned out that this group of bandits had always existed, because the villages here were scarce and far away from the towns, and it was difficult for the officers and soldiers to clean them up, which also made them extremely rampant, and they came to rob the surrounding villages every three or five days. And last year, when these bandits came to rob, in this unbearable situation, the people of Xiyuan Village resisted, captured the two leaders of these bandits and handed them over to the side of the city.

I thought that by capturing the leader of this group of bandits, I could let these bandits disperse, and without the leader, I thought that the few remaining veterans in the village could protect the village, so the strong men of Xiyuan Village were relieved to join the army.

The situation did go as imagined at the beginning, without the original two leaders with strong martial arts, the remaining veterans in the village could easily repel the remaining shrimp soldiers and miscellaneous fish.

But the good times didn't last long, and the bandits found a fool out of nowhere and wounded the remaining men in the village, so that the people of the village had to give in to the bandits again, and let them come and loot them almost every other month.

Hearing this, Zhixin felt very uncomfortable, other people's men went into battle to kill the enemy, and they couldn't imagine that there were such people doing these dirty things, and they also whispered insults that these thieves are not people.

"I counted the days, and I think they still have some days to come here, and I bumped into you before I thought of it, and Auntie is sorry for you!" Aunt Carpenter thought that Rohr and Weaving Core were two immature children, and felt that Rohr was still a little young and frivolous when he spoke, but she felt that Rohr was right, and there was only one of these thieves, and that was the later fool.

"Haha, we came to buy a carriage, and we must have stayed for a stay, I can't blame you, auntie, not to mention that you still treat us like that, it's too late for us to say thank you. ”

After listening to this, Aunt Carpenter secretly admired the weaving core again in her heart, and she couldn't imagine that when she was in danger, she would comfort others.

"Did these bandits hurt people's lives?"

"For the time being, no one has been killed, it's just a forcible robbery, but if you don't give it, you will beat someone. ”

Hearing that they had not harmed people's lives, Weaver was not so angry, and then said to Rohr, "According to the way they searched, they should pass through our house, and then see the situation, lest there be mistakes." ”

As soon as he heard this, Luo Er felt reasonable, maybe a peerless master suddenly ran out in secret, and wouldn't it be extremely embarrassing to be unable to get out of it then.

Why aren't these two children afraid? That's a bandit, they can still be so calm, Aunt Carpenter doesn't want to let Luo and Weaving Core get hurt, but she looks at Weaving Core and Luo Er and the two of them calmly, but she doesn't know how to persuade them, so she has to secretly pray that those thieves don't come here, and Weaving Core and Luo Er don't be impulsive.

Sensing Aunt Carpenter's trembling in fear, Weaving Core shook Aunt Carpenter's hand and said with a smile, "It's okay." ”

The thief's voice was getting closer and closer, and suddenly a thief soldier pointed to the horse in front of the old carpenter's house and said, "Big brother, look, there is a horse." ”

In these poor villages, not to mention horses, there are few cows, could it be that there are rich people staying there temporarily? The bandit leader was also quite shrewd, first analyzing the situation in front of the old carpenter's house, and then making a response.

Seeing that there was only one horse, the leader of the bandits concluded that it should be a messenger or something, but for the sake of safety, he arranged for the fool to stand in this place, and he took someone to take the lead to see the situation, and if there was a situation, let him strike a few people by surprise.

Worried about what would come, in the end the old carpenter's door was still knocked "knock".

"The people inside, don't think that if you turn off the lights, you can pretend that there is no one inside, the horse in front of the door has betrayed you!"
